Chapter 170: The Thieving Diao reports the truth, and the officials return to bliss at night
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, wake up quickly."
The Emperor of Daqing heard a voice in his ears while he was half asleep. When he finally opened his eyes, he saw a thin middle-aged man with a mustache calling him softly by the bedside.
He was also startled and almost didn't shout out. Fortunately, this thin middle-aged man with a mustache had quick eyesight and quick hands, so he explained in a low voice immediately.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. The grass-roots people are Zhang Yi, the leader of the Futian Alliance, and they are here to pay homage to your Majesty." Zhang Yi hurriedly said.
After hearing this, Emperor Daqing also calmed down, and then looked up and down at Zhang Yi, the treasure thief with a slightly wretched temperament, and then asked: "Tell me, what is the origin of this Futian Alliance? Why have I never heard about it."
In fact, the Emperor of Daqing also recognized the origin of the other party. He was the Earthly Evil Star among the Tiangang Earthly Evil Stars. He was taught by Master Jin Yun, so he naturally had the ability to distinguish the Tiangang Earthly Evil Star.
"Your Majesty doesn't know about our Futian Alliance!!!" Zhang Yi looked surprised and puzzled. How could this be possible? His Futian Alliance's efforts to stop the rebellion and crusade against Beibo were famous all over the world, but the emperor didn't know anything about it. Do not know at all.
"Tell me in detail." Emperor Daqing couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart when he saw the other party's expression, and had an unknown premonition.
"Yes, Your Majesty, the Futian League is..." Zhang Yi quickly told the origins of the Futian League and what they had been doing these days, and then he revealed the purpose of his visit: "This time The common people had no choice but to sneak into the palace and disturb His Majesty. It was a helpless act. I just wanted to ask why Your Majesty wanted to kill Commander Ren and ruin the situation. "
Emperor Daqing's blood pressure soared so high that his vision went dark and he couldn't even sit still.
"Are you saying that 40% of Daqing's territory has fallen into the hands of Yan thieves, and that Beifang has marched straight into the north to occupy the north, facing Shenjing from a distance?" the Daqing Emperor asked weakly.
"Could it be that your Majesty doesn't know this?" Zhang Yi's heart was also filled with huge waves. As the emperor who rules the world, he was so deceived.
"Ren Wen didn't surrender to the enemy on the battlefield and was beheaded just now. How come I want to kill Ren Wen?" Emperor Daqing forcibly stabilized himself and then asked.
"No, no, no, the common people heard it with their own ears. The content of the imperial edict is to blame Commander Ren for his poor performance and plan to behead him in public to rectify the morale of the army."
"But everyone in the world doesn't know that if it weren't for several golden orders forcing Ren Shuai to confront the Yan thieves, not only would the good situation be ruined, but now they even want to kill Ren Shuai. If Ren Shuai dies, even with the help of the Futian Alliance , It can't stop the Yan thieves from entering Shenjing," Zhang Yi said quickly.
As soon as these words came out, Emperor Daqing almost fainted. He never expected that someone would dare to falsely pass on the imperial edict.
He is the only one who takes the blame. This group of people is simply audacious.
Now he also understood that the warrior who broke into the palace gate and was beheaded not long ago was really coming to deliver an urgent battle report.
It just couldn't be delivered to him.
"I don't know, I was deceived by a traitor."
"All the civil and military officials in the dynasty are hiding the truth from me, and no one is loyal to me."
"They said that the world is clear and the river is clear, and the Yan thieves were beaten and fled in all directions, unable to resist. Even the head of the Yan thieves leader was presented."
"There is not even a shred of news about the Northern Tibet incident, and they don't even know that they have occupied the northern land."
The Emperor of Daqing directly broke through the defense and cried so much that he felt aggrieved.
Zhang Yi felt sad when he saw this scene. They were working desperately on the front line, but the traitors in the court were wreaking havoc in the rear.
"Your Majesty, with my Futian Alliance here, Your Majesty will be able to clean up the world and rebuild the world." Zhang Yi also comforted him, and then hurriedly said: "The top priority is not to let Commander Ren die at the hands of traitors. The common people dare to ask Your Majesty for help." An imperial edict came to save Ren Shuai."
Zhang Yi was also anxious. If Ren Wen died, who knew how the traitorous ministers in the court would harm their Futian Alliance.
Regarding the Futian League, the princes in the court have always felt that they were an eyesore, and they would target them several times from time to time, and even thought of blaming them.
"Help me up, I will issue an order immediately." Upon hearing this, Emperor Daqing also restrained his emotions, but he was powerless.
It was really because the impact of this news on him was too great.
Zhang Yi supported the Daqing Emperor and watched him write down the imperial edict and seal it, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
This time it was indeed extremely smooth, but correspondingly, after learning the truth about the corruption on the front line, it was also extremely shocking.
In particular, the powerlessness of imperial power impacted his outlook on life.
I thought I was just being deceived, but now it’s different. I was made a puppet. Such a big thing happened in Daqing. As an official of the emperor, I didn’t know at all. Looking at it, it’s probably not true that I was kept in the dark. Not for a while, but for a long time.
"The only ones I can trust now are the righteous men of the Futian League and Ren Aiqing."
"In order to clear the emperor's side, I also ask Zhang Yishi to bring these words to Ren Aiqing and the righteous people of the Futian League." Emperor Daqing said humbly.
He had to rely on this group of Tiangang Earth Evil Demon Stars.
That's right, in his eyes, the top leaders of Futian League must be Tiangang Disha, otherwise how could they be so loyal and good.
Now he also knows why he needs to rely on these people. Not only because these people are the pillars of the country, but also because he has no one available at all. All those who can be used have been transferred or isolated, and the rest in the court are all sycophants. A person who flatters and deceives the emperor and ignores his superiors. All of them are simply audacious, daring to hide such a big thing.
The Emperor of Daqing could even imagine what would happen if the Yan thieves came to the city. He would just use him, the Daqing Emperor, to exchange wealth for the Yan thieves.
At that time, I don’t even know how I died.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. The common people will definitely convey your Majesty's will to Commander Ren and all your brothers." Zhang Yi said solemnly.
Despite his humiliation and death, Zhang Yi was still extremely loyal to the Daqing Emperor whom he met for the first time.
"I just ask your Majesty to be patient for the time being, lest the traitors in the court jump over the wall and harm your Majesty."
"When Commander Ren and the brothers from the alliance arrive, they will surely relieve His Majesty's worries!" Zhang Yi also asked the Daqing Emperor not to act recklessly and to endure it for the time being.
After all, even if he dares to conceal such an important matter as losing land, regicide is not out of the question.
"My heart is comforted by the words of a righteous man." Emperor Daqing was also wooing Zhang Yi at this time. This was equivalent to praising you for being a very considerate person, but the tone and sentences seemed a bit condescending.
Zhang Yi didn't feel anything, he just thought it was what it should be.
"I wonder if your Majesty has any other instructions. If you don't have any instructions, the common people will leave first and deliver the message." Zhang Yi wanted to continue chatting with the Emperor of Daqing to express his gratitude, but his reason told him that he had to rush back as soon as possible.
"Go, be careful on the road." The Emperor of Daqing naturally didn't want anything to happen to Zhang Yi on the road. He was not only tasked with saving the commander-in-chief Ren Wen, but also his own hopes.
So naturally I wanted Zhang Yi to arrive safely.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I also hope that Your Majesty will take care of your holy body and don't be angry with the traitors in the court." After saying that, Zhang Yi jumped up to the beam like a sable and ran out in a flash.
"We will have to strengthen the security next time." Emperor Daqing looked at this scene and thought that he would have to strengthen the protection of the palace in the future. If a bandit from the green forest was able to come in quietly, would he be able to do so quietly in the future? Took his own head silently?
This kind of thing must be guarded against.
As for the other party being one of our own? Is it still uncertain? The current Tiangang Disha is indeed a loyal minister and good general, but it will not be certain in the future. If the demonic nature is not eliminated, it is also unknown if he will do something arrogant or depose, usurp the throne, etc. With these possibilities alone, the Daqing Emperor You won't believe them.
"Your Majesty, I just heard a noise, it seems like a thief broke in." The voice of the chamberlain came from outside the door.
"I'm fine." Emperor Daqing responded impatiently, imitating the tone of being woken up.
Now he doesn't believe anyone, not even Futian League or Ren Wen, the frontline commander. Suspicion has taken over all his thoughts, let alone a mere chamberlain.
He still remembered that the chamberlain once carried a cover and held the head into the morning court to show off to him.
"Your Majesty, let me come in and check." The chamberlain outside the door started banging on the door without hesitation.
Emperor Daqing's expression suddenly changed, the other party was here to use force.
"Presumptuous!" Emperor Daqing roared, but the other party ignored him and broke in directly.
The leader of the chamberlain rushed in with several burly soldiers. More importantly, the chamberlain was holding a white silk ribbon in his hand.
"You guys...what are you going to do?" Emperor Daqing was really frightened this time.
"I just want to invite Your Majesty to ascend to heaven." The chamberlain waved, and two soldiers stood up, each holding the head and tail of Bai Ling.
Obviously the matter is too big and the princes in the court cannot hide it, so the best way is to cancel the account and start over.
It was definitely not their account that was sold out, but the account of the Daqing Emperor.
As long as the Daqing Emperor dies and a child who knows nothing takes over, the rest will be easy to handle.
"You are regicide. Aren't you afraid of being scorned by the world for your actions?" Emperor Daqing angrily scolded his chamberlains and soldiers.
"Why did your Majesty say this? It is clearly your Majesty's crime that caused chaos in the world, and that's why you had no shame to see the common people and finally committed suicide." The chamberlain said with a smile.
Several soldiers swarmed up and directly held down the Daqing Emperor. Then the two soldiers holding white silk directly took action and put the white silk on his body.
Then they worked together so hard that the Daqing Emperor couldn't breathe at all.
"I won't die well... You won't die well!!!" Emperor Daqing cursed with difficulty.
"Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. We will not die." The servant's smile remained unchanged. As long as they defected to the Yan army or Beifan, given their status, they could still live a good life under the other party's command, and they could even still be in high positions. Problem, we can still settle these bad debts.
Oh, by the way, this idea is not the surrender tactics of Yan Jun and Beifan, but their own idea.
