Chapter 1370 I Really Didn’t Want to Be an Emperor

It seems that when something big happens, there is always some special weather to highlight the tense atmosphere of the event.

It was a cold, rainy autumn day in the ninth year of Daye (610 AD).

Wang Yan skipped work at noon, brought a cart of vegetables back home, and had ten sheep and three cows slaughtered. The whole family, including maids, servants, and others, all had hotpot together.

With Wang Yan's continuous voyages, he brought back various crops for local cultivation and improvement, and the various ingredients have become quite abundant. He is responsible for supplying dishes to the dignitaries in the capital, so naturally, they can have whatever they want to eat and as much as they want.

Various seasonings have also been developed and perfected, and shabu-shabu hotpot is not much different from it was thousands of years ago.

While Wang Yan was enjoying hotpot, drinking wine and chatting with his followers, the door of the mansion was slammed loudly.

There was no one at the gatehouse, everyone was having dinner with Wang Yan.

This was not the doorman's fault, because the number of guests visiting Old Wang's house on weekdays gradually decreased, and today was a rainy day, so no one came. The doorman was also a follower of Wang Yan for many years. They were all brothers, so of course they ate and drank together.

Everyone was eating in the front yard and they also heard the noise penetrating the rain.

The doorman cursed and took a big gulp of wine before going to open the door. He saw the eunuch standing at the door and the soldiers following behind him.

He stuck his head out and saw a large group of soldiers holding weapons standing guard on both sides of the road outside.

The eunuch ignored the doorman's changing expression and walked in casually: "Duke Wu is in a really good mood, eating hotpot at home."

Wang Yan glanced at him and saw some arrogance in this eunuch.

"Talk about something."

"The Tuyuhun have made unusual moves and have allied with the tribes to the west. Your Majesty has summoned Duke Wu to the palace to discuss matters."

Shaking his head in amusement, Wang Yan ate another plate of meat, took a few big bites, and drank a glass of strong liquor. Then he put down his chopsticks and stood up. He raised his head to the eunuch and said, "I'm going to the backyard to change my clothes."

"Please do as you wish, Duke Wu. We'll be waiting." The eunuch smiled wryly.

Wang Yan turned around and went to the backyard, where the maid helped him put on his armor. Xiao Mei stood aside and put the Han sword she had obtained from the Chen Palace on Wang Yan's waist.

"I will wait for my husband to come back!"

Xiao Mei's eyes were sparkling with excitement.

"You..." Wang Yan smiled, reached out and stroked her face, then turned and left.

When the eunuch came out of the rear house, he was so frightened by Wang Yan's attire that he almost died.

"Wu... Duke Wu... His Majesty is looking for you to discuss military matters. What are you doing?"

"Where's your arrogant attitude just now?"

Before Wang Yan could say anything, the guard next to him slapped him in the face, "You bastard, you're so arrogant to a eunuch without any balls?"

Wang Yan sighed: "It's hard to be a loyal minister! It's even harder to be a capable loyal minister!"

"Brothers, take care of the family. There will be chaos for a while."

"Yes, General!"

"What a stupid general, call him Your Majesty!" someone shouted.

At this time, the eunuch was already trembling and slumped on the ground. No matter how stupid he was, he knew that something big was going to happen.

The root cause of this major incident is that the king wants his subject to die, but the subject refuses to die!
Seeing that his soldiers were already leading their war horses and carrying their lances, Wang Yan glanced at the eunuch and knelt twice, "Lead the way, take me to see His Majesty. His Majesty is impatient, don't keep him waiting for too long."

"Wu... Duke Wu..."

"Ok?"

The eunuch immediately stopped talking, jumped up from the ground, no longer with his previous arrogance, and responded with a trembling voice.

Then he saw a scene that shocked him.

The soldiers he brought with him were no longer standing guard along the road, but had gathered in a neat formation. There were several corpses on the ground nearby, with blood mixed with rainwater flowing.

Behind him, Wang Yan's family soldiers brought out a big drum and started beating it in the rain. The deep drum sound echoed far away in the noisy rain. After a while, the same drum sound echoed.

No, more than drums.

There were also the sounds of trumpets, the sounds of golden bells on the arrow towers in various blocks in the city, and sharp whistles.

No matter how dumb the eunuch is, he can understand that this is conveying a message.

His eyes widened and he looked at Wang Yan in disbelief.

"gone."

Wang Yan waved his hand with a smile.

The eunuch was startled and quickly climbed onto his horse, following Wang Yan at a distance of half a horse. Behind him, there was a large group of soldiers running in an orderly manner.

The combat boots stepped on the rain on the ground, and the raindrops hit the armor of the soldiers. As the soldiers ran, the armor plates fluttered and made rustling sounds.

The thunder rumbled, but the footsteps of the soldiers seemed louder than the thunder.

At the gate of the imperial city, the armored soldiers guarding the gate had gathered. A large number of noble sons who guarded the imperial city lay on the ground, and their blood had spread across a large area of ​​bright red with the rain.

Wang Yan ignored him, waved to the soldiers, and rode his horse all the way to Yang Guang's study.

This is certainly against the rules, but at this point, Yang Guang’s rules are not the rules, Wang’s rules are the rules.

Along the way, there were many corpses, and even Yuwen Chengdu, who had his limbs broken and was lying on the ground in the rain.

"Wang Yan, you traitor."

Seeing Wang Yan passing by, Yuwen Chengdu started cursing loudly.

Wang Yan sneered and said nothing to Yuwen Chengdu. The next moment, the surrounding soldiers came over and started punching and kicking Yuwen Chengdu.

Yuwen Chengdu was very tough. He just groaned and continued to curse loudly.

In this way, he arrived at the study, dismounted, and the soldier standing guard at the door opened the door.

The cold wind rushed in, and Yang Guang, Yu Wenzhi, He Ruobi and others inside all raised their heads. Seeing Wang Yan fully armed, they were even more horrified. Yang Guang sat there with a gloomy face: "Zi Yan, what do you mean?"

"Wang Yan! Do you want to rebel?" Yu Wenzhi also jumped up and pointed at Wang Yan.

The next moment, a sword flashed, and Yu Wenzhi cried out in pain, holding his hand.

A finger flew up into the air, fell to the ground and rolled twice...

"you……"

Yu Wenzhi was angry and panicked. He widened his eyes and wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say...

Wang Yan smiled, and then the sword flashed, cutting the tendons of Yu Wenzhi's hands and feet. He then kicked sideways, sending Yu Wenzhi back to his seat, screaming in pain.

"Your Majesty, why do you want to kill me?"

Yang Guang laughed: "Look at what you are like now, Ziyan, if I ask you to tell me, can I not kill you?"

"Your Majesty, you are wrong." Wang Yan smiled and shook his head. "You were the one who wanted to kill me first, so I had to do it. For so many years, I have been by your side, serving you wholeheartedly. I can't say that it is all my credit, but for the current situation, I have contributed at least 50%.

I have said many times that I would be willing to be a rich and idle person in the capital. After returning from the northeast, the ministers attacked me and Your Majesty was suspicious of me, but I didn't say anything. I just worked honestly in the Ministry of Agriculture. But now, Your Majesty wants to kill me. That won't work."

Yang Guang's face looked very ugly. Wang Yan continued, "Your Majesty has known me for 21 years, and you should know me best. It's not that I couldn't leave in Chen Palace. Your Majesty was only three feet away from me, and the tiger guards were all around me, but they were useless to me. The principle is that if you, the King of Jin, don't let us go, then we will kidnap you and run away. Find a place far away from the emperor and live a happy life.

If you can't live in peace, then gather in the mountains and raise the flag to rebel. Chen Sheng and Wu Guang said long ago that kings, princes, generals and ministers are not born noble, and no one can be an emperor.

Your Majesty, I just want to live. If I have to ask for something, it is to live a better life. I don't want anyone to bully me or enslave me. If it is higher, it is just to let the people of the world live a good life. Your Majesty, why do you embarrass me?"

"You have made it so clear, what else is there to not understand?" Yang Guang sneered, "Wang Yan, you have been preparing for a rebellion for a long time, right? The people around me are all yours, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to walk into my study in your military uniform. It's really ridiculous, I didn't expect that you would play a trick on me in the end."

"I was just protecting myself."

"Stop talking nonsense. Now that things have come to this, you can kill me or chop me up as you wish."

"Your Majesty, I am different from you. I am nostalgic. You will not be an emperor, so live well and see how I do it."

Yang Guang's teeth were broken, but he didn't cry and pretended to be strong.

Things developed too quickly, completely beyond his expectations.

He made arrangements with full confidence and had someone call Wang Yan into the palace to kill him. Everyone in the world knew that Wang Yan was a martial arts expert, and he had even defeated hundreds of armored soldiers without armor, so of course he was well prepared.

But such a secret matter was discovered by Wang Yan early on, and all the people he prepared were useless. Wang Yan walked in front of him fully armed, but he didn't hear any movement, and he was still preparing his farewell words to Wang Yan.

What he thought was perfect turned out to be full of loopholes in Wang Yan's opinion.

He believed that Wang Yan was loyal, and the loyalty in Wang Yan's eyes was still there. He tried for more than a year, and someone took over Wang Yan's family business, suppressed the civil and military officials who followed Wang Yan, destroyed Wang Yan's prestige, and disintegrated Wang Yan's power.

Wang Yan never took any action and accepted all these things. Therefore, Yang Guang thought that Wang Yan was still loyal to him, so he suppressed him more confidently.

So now, more than a year later, although Wang Yan's power has collapsed, Wang Yan's existence is still an insurmountable mountain, and no one dares to disobey what Wang Yan says. So he wants to kill Wang Yan.

He thought Wang Yan was loyal. Since he was loyal, if he wanted to kill Wang Yan, then Wang Yan should just sit there and wait for death.

Now the results have proved that he was wrong. Wang Yan did not want to die.

How could he not want to die?

Wang Yan knew what Yang Guang was thinking at a glance. This was the arrogance of the rulers, and they all acknowledged this truth.

If I punish you, you must stand firm. If I kill you, you cannot resist.

What the hell is this bullshit!
"Your Majesty, I know it will be difficult for you to adapt for a while, but I still need you to adapt. Don't worry, your life will still be guaranteed. Although it won't be as extravagant as it is now, you will still have no problem eating, drinking, and sleeping with women."

Yang Guang sneered: "Wang Yan, you don't really think you can ascend the throne smoothly, do you? Don't forget, there are still Guanlong and the south. If they make trouble, let's see what you can do."

"Your Majesty, have you forgotten that I was the one who killed all the great families in the Central Plains? Although the great families in Guanlong and the south have become powerful in recent years, so what? With a large army in hand, I can only kill. Even if I don't take the throne, and disputes arise again in the world, and heroes compete for supremacy, I will kill all the great families. No one can think of being the master or riding on the head of others."

"Oh, is that possible? In this world, some people want to eat meat, and some people want to eat shit."

He Ruobi, who was sitting next to him, spoke. Although the old man was not young, he was also a regular general and was in good spirits. He had already gotten over the initial panic and knew that he probably would not survive, so he spoke without hesitation.

Wang Yan glanced at him and said, "Then I will let the meat eaters eat shit, and let the shit eaters eat meat. I want to see who eats more meat or who eats more shit. Old He, you haven't forgotten, have you? Your father is the shit eater you mentioned, but now he is eating meat, isn't he?"

"Impossible, Wang Yan, the amount of meat is limited."

"This is where you have no ambition, you bastards. I have opened up so many continents, but you are still staring at the little piece of land in front of you, and you are still ruthlessly exploiting the people, forcing them to sell their children and daughters and become slaves. You have no ambition at all. And you all call yourself noble."

Wang Yan cursed, then looked at Yang Guang, "Stay here, don't do anything. I don't have time to deal with you these days. Wait for me to kill people in Luoyang and Daxing first. Let's see who in Guanlong and the south is brave enough to rebel against me."

After saying that, Wang Yan turned and walked out.

At this time, a large group of soldiers had gathered outside. Seeing Wang Yan coming out, Cheng Yaojin came up with a laugh and said, "Your Majesty, Old Cheng is here. All the city gates have been taken. Old Shi is dispatching the garrison outside. I guess they have already started the killing."

In the past period of time, Cheng Yaojin and others were transferred back to the capital. They encouraged Wang Yan to rebel whenever they had the chance, and they all obeyed Xiao Mei's command.

Because for a long time, they all thought that Wang Yan had lost his mind and didn't want to rebel, so they closely connected Wang Yan's various networks of relationships, hoping to help Wang Yan wear the yellow robe.

This was also part of the reason why Yang Guang wanted to kill him. After all, he had too many connections, and if he didn't do things carefully, many rumors would still leak out.

Of course, Yang Guang wanted to kill him, but after hearing these rumors, he wanted to kill him even more...

Wang Yan smiled and took out a memorial from his pocket: "Here, this is a list of ministers in the court. You brothers, arrest the people on the list one by one."

"Okay, Your Majesty, you must remember Old Cheng's contribution later."

"Yours is indispensable, so hurry up."

Wang Yan waved his hand in disdain.

Among this group of bandits, Wang Yan still likes Cheng Yaojin more. He is a master at pretending to be stupid and pretends to be innocent every day. But he is still proper in doing things, never asking for reasons, and he will do whatever he is asked to do.

The others are much worse, for example Xu Shiji, who has an idea as soon as his eyes turn and has too many thoughts in his mind.

But generally speaking, they are all useful people.

That night, blood flowed like a river in Luoyang...

I would like to thank the good brothers who give rewards, vote for monthly tickets, recommend tickets, and read books silently for their strong support!
