Chapter 202 The temptation of the Prime Minister

When Zhang Xian said this, his face did not change, and his face looked pious, as if he were talking from the bottom of his heart. It's worthy of being the guy who climbed into the cabinet. This shame alone is not comparable to ordinary people. The current situation in Fengchu is obviously rotten to the bone, and it can even say the four words of going abroad. His skin is thicker than the city wall.

"Why does Mr. Zhang need to be like this? Everyone is smart. What does the court look like now? Everyone knows it. There is no need for the Prime Minister to say too much!" The Prime Minister seemed to have known that Zhang Xian would say so. Although he obviously heard the perfunctory in Zhang Xian's words, he was not angry at all, but said sincerely.

"Why did the Prime Minister say this?" Zhang Xian pretended to ask without knowing. Who is he? I don't know how many years I have worked in the officialdom and how many ups and downs I have experienced. How can I be told what I really think in my heart in such a simple sentence by the Prime Minister?

"I don't know what the three elders think about what happened 25 years ago?" Prime Minister Gu Yuanping did not explain it directly to the three people, but asked.

"Hss!" Even Zhang Xian couldn't maintain his demeanor at this time. He took a breath of cold air and said, "What do you mean, Prime Minister? I don't know about the past!"

It's no wonder that the three people's looks changed greatly. You should know that the emperor of Fengchu didn't use the surname Shangguan before, but someone else. Twenty-five years ago, it was Shangguan Yunba's father, Shangguan Yulong. While the former emperor died early, the new emperor was young. Suddenly, the king of the army rose. Take away the country of other people's families.

At that time, they were still struggling at the bottom, and it was precisely because of that conspiracy. They gradually have the opportunity to show their talents. It's a pity that Shangguan Yulong has the life to fight the country. But there is no life to be a country. After only being an emperor for more than ten years, he let his son usurp the throne.

Because time is not far away, these topics are absolutely taboo in the court of Fengchu. Almost no one dares to talk about it. Unexpectedly, Prime Minister Gu Yuping directly made this topic clear today.

"Why do you have to ask knowingly, if it weren't for that incident. How can the accession to the throne stand out among the officials and achieve the current position? The ancient proverb said with a gloomy smile.

"I don't want to talk more about the past, and I also ask the Prime Minister not to say more. Today's matter is out of your mouth, and it will be in the ears of the three of us. There will never be one more person to know. Please take care of yourself!" Zhang Xian almost wanted to push the door directly and left. But this matter is too big. He didn't expect that the Prime Minister was so bold that he dared to talk about such a topic so blatantly.

You should know that whether it is the previous emperor or your current majesty Shangguan Yunba. Their throne was not inherited by serious succession, but by conspiracy and trickery. Especially Shangguan Yunba, who killed his father and brother. Even if it is a success or failure, it will take a while to slowly dilute these bad effects. Now it has only happened for more than 20 years, and it is not the time for people to forget these things. Therefore, those in power are always special about this kind of thing.

And Prime Minister Gu Yuping talked about this topic at this time, and there was obviously something deep in it. Of course, even if not, Zhang Xian is not going to let him go on. The so-called partition wall has ears, once this kind of topic is heard. That's not a problem that one or two people can solve.

"Although things have passed, the reason has not passed. The so-called orthodoxy is orthodox at all times, and even if he gets some power benefits for a while, he will eventually be spurned by the people of the world!" Generally speaking, the meaning of Zhang Xian's words is very obvious. No matter what you want to say, stop talking about it. However, the ancient proverb continued to speak as if he did not hear the meaning of Zhang Xian's words, and also involved the so-called orthodoxy of the world.

You should know that it's okay to deceive ordinary people. For people in their position, the so-called royal power is still orthodox and righteous. In fact, it is just a policy to maintain the stability of the country. To fool them with these words, the Prime Minister obviously chose the wrong person.

There are many words that are not opusive. Zhang not only feels that he is not opprising with the prime minister, but has even risen to the point of shocking words.

In fact, since Gu Yuping has just talked about the topic of the previous dynasty, the three of them have understood the meaning of Gu Yuping in their hearts, and now they are even more sure to hear him say so.

"It seems that Gu Yuping is going to rebel. Can't he find the legacy of the previous dynasty?" Zhang Xian, Wei He and Duan Yifeng exchanged glances with each other and understood each other's meaning at the same time.

Wei He first said, "I am not good at drinking. Today, I am honored by the Prime Minister, and I will leave!" Wei He first made a decision, no matter what kind of card Cheng's opponent held. Wei He doesn't think that he can achieve any great things with the remnants of the previous dynasty. Although your majesty is mediocre today, his control over the army is very strong. If it's far away, let's talk about 3,000 imperial troops. Most of them were veterans who followed Shangguan Yunba's southern expedition to the north. It is difficult for others to get involved. Not to mention the four battalions of Gongwei Jingshi, and the tiger roaring army is close at hand.

Therefore, Wei He doesn't think that the Prime Minister has captured the remnants of the previous dynasty, or any unused cards. No matter how useful these cards are, in short, it can't be an army. As long as there is no army, whether you have the righteousness of steel or any other cards, it is just like a mirror. Strength, or the army, is the foundation of maintaining a dynasty.

Seeing this, Zhang Xian and Duan Yifeng also understood Wei He's choice, so they got up and said goodbye.

"Are the three elders leaving now?" The ancient proverb said with a faint smile. At this time, the big horse sat on the chair with no intention of sending guests at all.

The three also realized that the situation may not be right, but there is no good way at this time. They just want to leave the secret room of the ancient proverb safely. Then forget about this matter.

Of course, they also know in their hearts that since the ancient proverb has no intention of sending guests, it is obvious that they want to leave them, and there are also means to leave them, but they have not used it yet.

"slow down!" Sure enough, before the three came out of the secret room, Gu Yuping suddenly said loudly.

The three people wanted to ignore the ancient proverb and leave the secret room directly. But after all, they stopped, because they didn't dare to gamble. They didn't know if there was someone ambushed outside the secret room. Rebellious is a great crime to kill the nine clans, which is much smaller than the crime of killing their three cabinet ministers. Therefore, they dare not block their own lives.

"Since the three elders are leaving, there is no reason for Bencheng to stop him!" Seeing the three people stop to look at him, the prime minister said with a smile. The voice was indifferent and soft, as if several people had been better for many years.

The three of them heard Gu Yuping say this, but they didn't relax. Instead, his heart skipped a beat. It seemed that Gu Yanping was going to make a move, and he didn't know how to threaten the three people.

"But!" Sure enough, after saying a sentence, I added another one. No matter what the words are, as long as you can't add these words, no matter how good the front is, it will be completely different in the back.

"But for the three elders, it's better for Ben Cheng to persuade the three to stay." The ancient proverb seems to be a bitter exhortation.

"Why do you still think that the three of us can stay?" Wei He's temper was the most grumpy. Originally, the ancient proverb had been insinuating for a long time, and he was extremely unhappy. Now Gu Yuping actually wanted to force them to roar angrily.

"Ha ha! Wei Ge is angry. How dare he do this? Gu Yuping said with a faint smile, and then his face turned straight: "Wei Ge doesn't put his left hand on the bottom of a rib and two fingers. Gently press it!" After saying that, he picked up the teacup and pressed a mouthful of fragrant tea. Then he continued as if he remembered something and said, "Oh, by the way, Mr. Zhang and Mr. Duan might as well try it!"

Several people's faces were even more gloomy when they heard the words. In fact, they knew that they must be the other party's way without even trying, but they always held such a trace of luck. Wei He first gently pressed his two fingers under the ribs on his left hand. Without much strength, just a gentle press, Wei He felt a burst of sharp pain straight to his brain. In an instant, his forehead was not full of cold sweat, followed by a twitch in his chest and abdomen, so that he could hold back the screams he was about to say.

"How are you, Lao Wei?" Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhang Xian quickly helped Wei He and asked anxiously.

At this time, Wei He's painful eyes were shining. If it hadn't been for Zhang Xian to hold him, he would hardly have been able to stand. His lips bit a piece of purple and blue, and reluctantly stammered, "I'm fine!" The voice was abnormally hoarse, intermittently as if he could die at any time.

"Ancient proverb flat! What did you do!" Zhang Xian asked in a low voice and angrily. On the one hand, he was angry that Gu Yuping had made such a trick. You should know that after all, officialdom is officialdom, with his unique rules of operation, although no one said anything. However, this method is also limited to political tactics, which are the default rules of everyone.

Otherwise, you hire a murderer to assassinate me, and I hire a murderer to assassinate you. Isn't there any difference between the officialdom and some gangster bosses in the world? I didn't expect that Gu Yuping would use such a shameless method of using poison now.

On the other hand, I am also afraid. As the saying goes, it has been difficult to die since ancient times. Few people in the world are really not afraid of death. Especially people like them who hold power.

"Ha ha! So it's better to persuade the three elders not to leave in a hurry. Come on, come on! Sit down first and let's talk slowly!" Gu Yuping didn't seem to see the three gloomy faces, and enthusiastically invited the three people to continue to sit down.

People have to bow their heads under the eaves. Now the lives of the three people fall into the hands of Gu Yanping. It is up to them whether they live or die. So even if you don't want to, you can only sit down and listen to what Gu Yuping said.

"What do you have to say!" After sitting down, Wei He wiped the cold sweat on his forehead. It seemed that he had almost recovered and asked angrily. The other two also looked at Gu Yuping with a gloomy face.

If it were other times, the performance of the three people would naturally not be so unbearable. After all, they are the most important ministers in the court who have dominated the political arena for more than 20 years, and there is still at least determination. But now he is very poisonous. What Mount Tai collapses in front of you without changing your color, and what is so powerful and unyielding has long been thrown out of the sky.

"The three elders don't need to be angry. I want you to meet someone!" Gu Yuping smiled, then bowed respectfully to a side door in the secret room, and shouted loudly, "My lord!"

"What!" The three people were shocked at the same time. Originally, they thought it was the Prime Minister who was unwilling to be lonely and wanted to go further. Therefore, it may be quite normal to find the relics of the previous dynasty and want to imitate the ancients to clamp the emperor to make the princes.

You should know that from ancient times to the present, people's hearts are not easy to be satisfied. If you climb to a certain position, you will naturally want higher rights. The Prime Minister took advantage of the emperor's young age to control the government, and he didn't know how many times it had happened. Even directly abolishing the emperor's own accession to the throne, it is not without.

So although the ancient proverb has tried many times today. The three of them also knew that the ancient saying was that they were unwilling to be lonely. But they didn't expect that now it seems that the situation is completely different from what they think. Gu Yuping was not the one who led this matter. It's subject to people, which surprised the three people.

You should know that the ancient proverb Ping is already the prime minister, which can be said to be more than ten thousand people under one person. If it hadn't been for the fact that Shangguan Yunba, the emperor of Fengchu, had been more fond of the high priest, it could have been said that he would have reached the peak of political power in a country in addition to the emperor.

What's the reason for such a person to risk killing the nine clans and rebel with others? And rebel against others. Even if he succeeds in the future, he will still be a prime minister after all. Is it possible for others to give up the throne to him? Who on earth has such great ability and strength? The hearts of the three people were completely confused.

"The three adults are all good!" If the person doesn't arrive, the sound will come first. The voice is as warm as jade, giving people a feeling of spring breeze.

But it was heard in the ears of three people, no less than a muffled thunder. Just because this sound is too familiar. As soon as the voice fell, a person had pushed the door in.

The three of them still had a trace of fluke in their hearts, but when they saw this person come in. All of them widened their eyes. Even if they had guessed in their hearts, they didn't expect that it was really this person. I couldn't help being frightened: "It's you!"

At the same time, Nangong Miyin also came to the Imperial Palace for the second time at the invitation of Shangguan Yunba to attend today's dinner. In fact, Nangong Miyin didn't want to come to this place at all. In the exaggerated scene that day, Nangong Miin felt a chill on her back and got goose bumps all over her body.

Obviously, there are only two people, and they have to have 108 dishes. And there are also some dishes to watch, not for anything else, just to reflect a scene. Moreover, each dish should be tasted by Shangguan Yunba in advance. If Shangguan Yunba is satisfied with it, it will be served. If Shangguan Yunba frowns, the cook who cooks this dish will be unlucky first.

Nangong Miyin is not the kind of country woman who has never seen anything in the world. Even if she is reborn for two generations, Nangong Miyin is a young lady of the family. It can be said that Nangong Miin has never been in short supply of food, clothing, housing and transportation. Even in the eyes of ordinary people, it is already extravagant.

Although those two generations were born in the martial arts family, all the minds of Nangong Miyin were not used for Xuanqi cultivation. Reading is reasonable, and practicing martial arts in Nangong Miyin is also able to read to adjust the mood. Who knows that the food on the plate, the grains are all hard work, Nangong Miyin is also very clear. Therefore, even if Nangong Miyin is more luxurious at ordinary times, there is one thing that Nangong Miin absolutely does, that is, it is not a waste of food. I am also particularly unaccustomed to this completely meaningless luxury.

"Your Excellency, I haven't seen your demeanor for a few days! Haha!" Shangguan Yunba seems to have arrived a long time ago. At this time, he is waiting in front of the gate of the Imperial Palace.

"Your Majesty, you're welcome. How can the people wait for a long time!" Nangong Miyane said with an apologetic face. But in his heart, he was depressed to death. The more enthusiastic Shangguan Yunba was about her, the more disgusted Nangong Miyin was. Looking at the old face of Shangguan Yunba, who was almost covered with wrinkles. Nangong Miin's smile became more and more reluctant.

"The day before yesterday, because of the bad national affairs, I lacked my attitude towards the goddess. Here I will make amends to the goddess!" Shangguan Yunba was almost dazzled by a smile from Nangong Miin. My heart is itchy like a hundred cats scratching.

"Your Majesty, you don't need to be polite. State affairs are important. The people's daughter is just an ordinary little girl. Your Majesty can't say so!" With that, he had followed Shangguan Yunba and entered the Imperial Palace.

From this, it can be seen that although Shangguan Yunba had some attempts against Nangong Miyin, he also seemed to cove for her beauty. But in his bones, he still regarded himself as a superior emperor, and Nangong Miyin was just a beautiful object.

Because even when the two people were talking, Shangguan Yunba was subconsciously half a step ahead of Nangong Miyin, and did not let Nangong Miyin parallel to him. This small detail was keenly grasped by Nangong Miyin.

"Your Majesty? May I ask the Queen and Her Royal Highness? After Nangong Miyin entered the Imperial Palace, she asked a strange question. Originally, she thought it was the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15th. Naturally, it is a day to reunite with your family. No matter what Shangguan Yunba thinks, there will be a queen, a prince and others at the banquet, right? However, what makes Nangong Miyin strange is that he is the only one who follows Guan Yunba in the imperial palace today. In addition, there are only some maids and eunuchs serving.

"Haha! Don't be surprised. The queen and the prince are having a banquet with the concubines of the harem. I deliberately took time to compensate the goddess. Otherwise, isn't the goddess lonely in this palace? Shangguan Yunba said with a concerned face.
