Chapter 331 Conspiracy to mutiny
"General Huang, how sure are you about this? In fact, I... I'm not that ambitious. Now I'm very satisfied." Lord Chen said with a smile.
"Lord Chen, you are wrong. If I can help you up, you can enjoy a lot more. If you give money, we will hold the military power. As long as we work together, there is nothing we can't do. General Huang's face was shaking, which made Chen Damin's heart jump.
"Although the Chen family is rich in wealth, the emperor has been grateful to me. If the emperor hadn't promoted me without Chen Jian, the Chen family would have just sold pork until now, haha."
When Lord Huang heard this, his face immediately fell down.
"According to Lord Chen, you don't want to cooperate with us? General Li and I are in control of the first army. The other four generals are recommended by us, and they are also listening to us now. So you can rest assured."
Lord Chen still doesn't quite understand that now that the country is rich and the people are strong, and General Huang has also been given due reuse. Why did they take Ji Liunian down to the throne?
"This... I'd better think about it. If I think about it, I will give the general an answer."
"Lord Chen, don't miss the opportunity. Just tell the truth. What do you think?"
Lord Chen smiled awkwardly.
"Actually, I don't think there is anything wrong with the emperor's position now. Anyway, we will change new people in two years. Why should we do this?
General Huang laughed.
"A new person? Who did you think she wanted to change? Haha. If General Gao hadn't disappeared for a while, we wouldn't have real power now. The emperor had no choice but to give us military power. The emperor's intention is obvious that she wants to take good time. Look, she is older than us, but she looks younger than us, and she doesn't know what spell she has practiced. If Lord Chen doesn't cooperate with us, Dacheng's country will be destroyed by her alone. General Huang said angrily.
"Why did the emperor's great country in this position be destroyed?"
"Isn't it ruined that Dacheng's country fell into the hands of a woman and a foreigner?"
"Then you assisted me to ascend the throne. Isn't the country of Dacheng also destroyed in my hands? I'm also a foreigner."
General Huang was stunned for a moment and laughed.
"Lord Chen, you misunderstood. I don't want to assist you to ascend to the throne. We are going to ascend to the throne. If Lord Chen can help, the benefits are indispensable to you, at least let you become prime minister."
Lord Chen suddenly realized.
"So that's it, I thought..."
"It's all my fault that I didn't make it clear, Lord Chen, would you like to help?"
"To be honest, in fact, my current position is almost the same as that of the prime minister. I'm really afraid to take such a risk to cooperate with you."
"I don't think Lord Chen is a greedy and afraid of death. It seems that Lord Chen still misses the emperor's kindness to you." Lord Huang sighed.
"You'd better wait a minute, okay? Now that the country is prosperous and the people are safe, it will be a lot of bloodshed if you are disturbed like this. If the emperor broke his promise in two years, I will promise to cooperate with you. Lord Chen feels that people like Ji Liunian will generally not go down on their words unless they have to.
"Lord Chen, why is this necessary? Haven't you seen it clearly? Now there is no one he like in front of the emperor, and the position of the prince is still empty. She clearly doesn't want to leave. As soon as the deadline arrived, she said that many princes were in good health and let us wait for another five years. General Huang seems to have calculated it.
"Maybe there is someone in the emperor's heart?"
"Lord Chen, do you still think that Cheng Qian will become the heir? You think too much, which is impossible. It's good that the emperor didn't kill him. It's impossible to let a person who wants to poison himself inherit his position. Lord Chen, if you don't mean it, I will say goodbye. Today, you will treat me as if you haven't been here. If Lord Chen reported this matter to the emperor, I would accept my fate.
Lord Chen quickly said, "General Huang looks down on me too much. Even if we can't cooperate, I won't betray you. General Huang, please think about it again. Your uncle died of greed. You should know very well.
"I know, but I'm different from my uncle. I'm for Dacheng's country. If it succeeds, I don't want any benefits. The promise to give you benefits is because we are afraid that Lord Chen doesn't want to do this loss-making business. But now, you think it's a loss even if you become a prime minister. General Huang stood up and wanted to leave.
Lord Chen sent General Huang outside.
"General Huang, I won't tell anyone about this. I just advise you not to act impulsively, so as not to lose your life."
General Huang laughed and left.
"Daddy..."
Lord Chen turned around and saw Chen Min.
"What did you come out for? Go back quickly." Lord Chen pulled down his face.
"Dad, I heard what you said. Is Dad really not going to tell the emperor this news? Chen Min said with a smile.
"Dad has his own ideas. Don't worry about these things."
"Dad, if you don't tell the emperor, what will the emperor think of our Chen family if he knows?" Chen Min is still entangled. Lord Chen feels that his daughter is a little abnormal, and it has not been normal since she returned to her mother's house.
"Go back." Lord Chen pulled Chen Min back.
"Dad, has Cheng Qian also discussed with you about poisoning the emperor before? Then why didn't you persuade Cheng Qian? Why didn't you tell the emperor? Why didn't you tell me?"
Lord Chen was stunned for a moment and then sighed deeply.
"This is Dad's way to be an official. You don't know the situation of officialdom. Many ambitious people can't do great things because they are too imprudent. Dad doesn't like to deal with these people, but he won't denounce them, stop them, or tell the emperor. Because once I do one of them, it has something to do with me. Lord Chen said seriously.
"But Dad, Cheng Qian is your son-in-law. Why didn't you pull him at the beginning? Now that he has become what he is now, aren't you sad?"
"If I could stop it, I would have stopped it. At that time, the prince had completely believed another person's words, and I couldn't wake him up. Go back to sleep. It's been happening for so long. It's too boring at this time.
Looking at his father going far away, Chen Min couldn't help crying.
General Huang told General Li the news as soon as he went back.
"Lord Chen is unwilling to help us. We have lost the money to buy weapons. Now it's better to find a way."
General Li was shocked.
"Why doesn't he agree?"
"On the one, it is to remember the emperor's old kindness, and on the other, it doesn't make much sense for him to be a prime minister or not. It seems that our plans have failed." General Huang sighed.
"What should I do now?" General Li was extremely frustrated.
"I have to find someone else."
"Other people don't have such financial resources, and even if they are willing to cooperate with us, they don't have so much money. I think we'd better start with Lord Chen. Lord Li doesn't know what he is thinking.
"He has made it clear that he is unwilling to cooperate with us, so is there any other way?" General Huang doesn't know what General Li means.
"Since he doesn't agree, it is possible to reveal our secrets at any time. Why don't we kidnap his daughter and threaten him? What do you think?"
General Huang was shocked, but he never wanted to do so.
"Lord Chen still has some friendship with me. He has promised not to reveal the secret before he left. Wouldn't it be shameful if we kidnapped her daughter?"
"The man is unrestrained, and we don't really want to kill her daughter. As long as it's done, we will let her go. Lord Chen will not reveal the secret. Isn't it killing two birds with one stone?
General Huang was a little moved, thought about it, and finally agreed.
