Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3412 Intimidation

The "Xuanwu Gate Change" changed the system of the succession of the throne in one fell swoop, and shattered the "Zongzheng succession" that had been admired since ancient times.

It is conceivable that, under the temptation of the supreme imperial power, from now on, countless people will use the "Xuanwumen Change" as an "inspirational" case, go forward and fight hard, expecting that they can also be like His Majesty Li Er Take it in reverse.

However, we can't just look at the success of His Majesty Li Er, how could Dou Lu Huairang not know the risks involved?
Sensing that His Royal Highness King Jing might also have the ambition to "rebel against the Xuanwu Gate" and sent Qiu Xinggong to persuade him, Dou Lu Huairang hesitated.

If this is accomplished, those who follow the king of Jing will naturally seize the merit of being a dragon, and from then on, they will ascend to heaven, hold great power, and step into the center in one step, even out of generals and into phases.But if he is defeated, he will be a traitor and a traitor, everyone will be punished, even the young and old in the clan will be punished with the sword and axe, and the family inheritance will be severed...

The benefits are great, but the risks are even greater.

Doulu Huairang pondered for a long time, slowly shook his head, and said apologetically: "This is a big matter, and the lives of the entire family are at stake. How dare the general dare to act arbitrarily? I have to go back and discuss with my father before we can make a decision."

What he said was reasonable, but Qiu Xinggong knew that Dou Lu Huairang was already conflicted.

He took a sip of the tea and found that the tea was already cold, so he put down the teacup and said slowly: "Although my official career is not going well today and I am often looked down upon, many subordinates still miss the love of the past. Such as Zuo Yi Among the guards, all of them were my subordinates back then, they were born and died, and made great achievements, if I waved my arms, how many people Doulu Consort Dou think would respond?"

Dou Luhuai's complexion changed drastically.

Although Qiu Xinggong has been away from Zuo Yiwei for many years, the most glorious moment of Zuo Yiwei was participating in the "Xuanwu Gate Change" under the leadership of Qiu Xinggong, assisting His Majesty Li Er to cut off Prince Jiancheng, Qi Wang Yuanji, and forcing Emperor Gaozu to abdicate Zen abdication, in one fell swoop to determine the country.

There are not many people in Zuo Yiwei who have been promoted due to meritorious service, so even though Qiu Xinggong is usually violent, he has a very high prestige in Zuo Yiwei. Almost all the middle and upper-level military officers and schools were his subordinates back then. It is easy for military management to lift themselves up.

At that time, even if he stands firm and fulfills the duties of the old guard, but the generals under his command have completely surrendered to King Jing, how can he have a good end?

Maybe before the incident started, he, General Zuo Yiwei, was killed first...

Qiu Xinggong watched Dou Lu Huairang's face change, and asked with a smile: "Why, you plan to go to the East Palace to expose my behavior, and use my head to help you get promoted?"

Dou Lu Huairang smiled wryly and said: "What is the commander talking about? Without the cultivation of the commander, there is no end to the present, how can he do such a wolf-hearted thing? It's just a matter of great importance, and it is really difficult to decide the end of the day."

Qiu Xinggong shook his head, and said calmly: "The situation is tight, how can there be a lot of time to hesitate and weigh the trade-offs? Right now, give me an answer."

Dou Lu Huairang looked bitter.

The Doulu family has always been estranged from the East Palace. In fact, not only the East Palace, but also the other sons of His Majesty Li Er, the Doulu family have never been close.Even if his heart is towards the Eastern Palace, how much will he value him when the Eastern Palace is firmly established and the disobedient ministers are wiped out?

Telling a whistleblower is a must, and it will offend Qiu Xinggong if it doesn't do any good, it's unnecessary.

Seeing that Doulu Huairang still refused to nod, Qiu Xinggong retreated and made the next best thing, saying: "This matter is so important, it is reasonable that Doulu's son-in-law is difficult to appoint. Besides, Doulu's family has been loyal for generations, how can I bear to let you bear the burden?" In the name of treason? It might as well be like this, you and I hereby agree that if everything goes well in the future and the rebels attack outside the Taiji Palace, Doulu Concubine will help break the palace gate and determine the overall situation. If it progresses as scheduled, Concubine Doulu will stay out of the matter and don't need to get involved, how about that?"

Doulu Huairang heaved a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "It's the best!"

He didn't want to get involved in this matter, because the risk was too great, but he couldn't refuse Qiu Xinggong, this person acted violently and had a hot temper, no one knew what he could do.

It would be best if we could stand still and watch the fire from the other side.Although success in the future will be less, once you fail, you can get out of it...

Qiu Xinggong smiled inwardly, for such a big event, everyone tied their wealth and lives to their waistbands, but you think that you can advance and retreat or defend?

Really stupid.

Doulu's family was once prominent in the past, and their ancestors occupied high positions in the court from the Northern Zhou Dynasty to the Sui Dynasty, and held great power. Today, they can only guard a Zuo Yiwei and wait to die. It shows that the descendants are unworthy and their luck is exhausted.

He got up and put on the cloak, Dou Lu Huairang got up and saw him off.

Walking to the door, Qiu Xinggong stopped, looked at the wind and snow outside, then turned his head to look at Dou Lu Huairang, and said slowly: "I am not in the same breath with Fang Jun, and I have never been in touch with Changsun Wuji, so what should I do? You decide for yourself."

After saying that, he turned around and opened the door, and walked away.

Dou Lu Huairang watched Qiu Xinggong's figure disappear into the wind and snow, then looked up at the towering Taiji Palace wall not far away, stood there for a long time before returning to the house.

Asked the soldiers to change a pot of tea, and took a sip, but it didn't taste very good, and his heart was in a mess.

My father has been lingering and sick for many years now, and he gets confused from time to time, and his children and grandchildren can't recognize him completely. Naturally, there is no way to discuss such important matters.Elder brother Dou Lu Renye is now in Longyou, apart from being an envoy to the military forces of Chengzhou and the governor of Chengzhou, he cannot discuss with him.

This matter can only be decided by oneself.

Qiu Xinggong's coercion and lure caused him to be in chaos.It's not necessary to act according to Qiu Xinggong's words and unreservedly support King Jing Li Yuanjing. After all, the Doulu family is from Guan Long's lineage and has deep entanglements with the interests of Guan Long's clan, so they can completely respond to Guan Long's actions.

It's just that Changsun Wuji is far away in Liaodong now, and the person in charge of the family is Changsun Chong who sneaked back to Beijing, which makes him feel scruples.

After all, Chang Sun Chong's performance in these years can hardly be called perfect. He was suppressed by Fang Jun all the way before, and later committed the crime of treason. His ability may not be able to handle such a major event.

Sitting for a while, Dou Lu Huairang had no idea, was in a dilemma, and became more and more irritable...

Just as he was at a loss what to do, he suddenly entered with his own soldiers and reported, "I want to report to you, Commander, there are people outside asking to see you. They say they are the sons of Hou Mo and Chen's family."

Dou Lu Huairang was taken aback for a moment, thinking to himself that this must be someone from the Guanlongmen Clan, but why is it someone from Hou Mochen's family?
Although Hou Mochen's family was once prominent, but now there are very few talented people in the family. The only highly respected Hou Mo Chen Qianhui has long since escaped into Buddhism. Queen Dugu, who is the best in the world...

He didn't want to see him, but he thought that Dou Lu's family was in the same vein as Guan Longyuan, and their interests were more deeply involved, so he said, "Please come in."

"Here."

The soldiers turned around and withdrew, and after a while, a handsome young man was brought in.

The young man entered the door and bowed to salute: "I have met Commander Doulu!"

Dou Lu Huairang didn't bother to ask his name, and said, "Is there something you want to come here today?"

The young man escaped from his bosom with a famous card, handed it to Doulu Huairang with both hands, and said respectfully: "I am here by the order of the Patriarch, and invite Marshal Doulu to go to the appointment and taste the vegetarian dishes cooked by the eminent monks of Dazhuangyan Temple."

Dou Lu Huairang was taken aback.

The Patriarch of Hou Mochen's family is Hou Mochenqianhui, but Houmochenqianhui has a title of Patriarch, but he doesn't care about the affairs of the clan, and lives in seclusion in Yongyangfang mansion all day long , food, clothing, housing and transportation are like monks...

This time, he actually invited himself, a junior, to the banquet?

Hurry up to take over the famous thorn, and take a closer look, it really is the famous thorn of Hou Mo Chenqianhui. It says that he is invited to Yongyangfang to have a banquet this evening, and he hurriedly said: "Please go back and report to Uncle Ming, and you will be on time when you make an appointment." Go to the appointment!"

"Here!"

After the young man bowed his hands and saluted, he turned and left.

Dou Lu Huairang looked at the famous thorn in his hand again and again, and his mind couldn't help but feel turbulent.I thought that Changsun Wuji was not in the capital, and Changsun Chong's affairs were not reliable, so it might not be safe to prepare for such a big event.But now that Hou Mo and Chen Qian will preside over the overall situation, the situation is completely different.

With Hou Mo Chenqian's identity, status, and resourcefulness, there must be a large number of responders, and even those forces that do not belong to Guanlong's line will respond in groups.As long as Hou Mo and Chen Qian can raise their arms, the matter will be more than half successful, which is much more reliable than King Jing Li Yuanjing.

That being the case, Dou Lu Huairang felt that he might be able to take advantage of Qiu Xinggong's lobbying opportunity to be invincible.

Aren't you Qiu Xinggong intimidating?

Just wait and see...
