Chapter 340 Suspicion
Xia Shouzhong personally sent Dai Quan out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, watched him and Xiao Lizi go away, and then returned to the emperor's bedroom.

"Dai Quan is gone?" the emperor asked leisurely.

"If you go back to Lord Long Live, Dai Quan has already left." Xia Shouzhong stood in the emperor's hands and replied respectfully.

The emperor nodded, thinking that in a few days he would go to Ningshou Palace to report Jia Ke to the Supreme Emperor. Although it might not be effective, but if he went a few more times, the Supreme Emperor would always be suspicious. By beating the side drum beside him, he didn't trust Jia Ke, and he could still gain the trust of the Supreme Emperor.

Early the next morning, Jia Ke had just practiced a set of Fang Tian painting halberds in the courtyard, when Liu Yu came to her side in a hurry.

"Master, Wei Kun is here and is waiting in my room, saying that he has something important to report to the uncle." Liu Yu said anxiously.

Ever since Jia Ke recalled Wei Kun from Xuanfu Town, the two had only seen each other a few times.The messages between them are all carried out by spies. What happened this time?He even came in person.

Jia Ke immediately said to Liu Yu: "Go to my study to talk." After saying that, Jia Ke went to his study.

Jia Ke didn't wait long in the study when Liu Yu and Wei Kun came.

"Master, Wei Kun saluted you." Wei Kun hurriedly saluted Jia Ke as soon as he entered the study.

"Don't be so verbose, talk about it quickly if you have something to do, don't delay it." Jia Ke said to Wei Kun impatiently.

Liu Yu saw that Wei Kun had confidential information to report to Jia Ke, so he saluted Jia Ke: "Master, I will watch for you outside the door, so you can talk at ease." After speaking, he left the room.

Only then did Wei Kun step forward to Jia Ke's side, and said in a low voice: "Master, the spies from Ningshou Palace reported last night that the emperor secretly summoned Dai Quan in the middle of the night. Dai Quan was in the middle of the night. Leaving Ningshou Palace at about five o'clock, and coming back around five o'clock."

Jia Ke had already heard Fan Kang's speculation on this matter yesterday, so she was not surprised.It's just that I didn't expect the emperor to be so anxious that he couldn't even wait for a few days.

"How is the Supreme Emperor's health recently?" Jia Ke is not interested in the alliance between the Emperor and Dai Quan. His main concern now is the Supreme Emperor's body. In fact, Jia Ke is already a little anxious now. He said in front of Fan Kang that it was before the Supreme Emperor passed away. If he didn't do anything, in fact, he wished that the Supreme Emperor would die immediately.

"The status of the few secret agents of Ningshou Palace is not too high, and they can't get into the side of the Supreme Emperor. However, according to several spies, the Supreme Emperor has not stepped out of Ningshou Palace for more than a month. It is not as often as before. Come out and take a walk in the garden to enjoy the flowers." Although Wei Kun did not specifically mention the situation of the Supreme Emperor, smart people already know that the Supreme Emperor's body may not be able to recover.

When Jia Ke heard that the Supreme Emperor was in poor health, he couldn't help showing some smiles on his face. If it wasn't for the consideration of the Supreme Emperor's favor for his promotion, he would not have waited so long for fear of his own reputation being bad in the future.

But now it seems that the Supreme Emperor is dead. In order to pave the way for the emperor, I am afraid that I, a powerful minister, have no value left. I don't know how the Supreme Emperor will deal with this "loyal minister" in the last period of time?
After Jia Ke sent Wei Kun away, she sat alone in the study, silent for a long time.He thought about it, thinking that if he was the Supreme Emperor, how would he weaken his rights when his wings were already established?How do you do it to yourself?
Jia Ke was silent for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion that if she wanted to deal with herself now, she would be paralyzing herself.Then the palace ban was suddenly launched and he was executed in the palace.

However, this trick is enough to deal with ordinary powerful officials. If it is used against oneself, it may still be impossible to succeed.As long as he broke out of the palace with his own force, the emperor and the supreme emperor would die immediately without a place to bury him.

After Jia Ke figured it out, she felt relieved.At the same time, the guard was also strengthened. From then on, as long as they entered the palace, they were all lined with armor and covered with brocade robes.The soft sword in his waist never leaves his body.

For the next period of time, it seemed that the world was at peace.Jia Ke is still in charge of the Military Aircraft Department and obeys the emperor's words.And the emperor seems to be getting weaker and weaker, completely under Jia Ke's suppression.

During this time, the emperor often accompanied the Taishanghuang's hospital bed, and every time the Taishanghuang took medicine, he had to personally try it before sending it to the Taishanghuang.

Because of the emperor's attitude, the Supreme Emperor began to let go of his wariness towards the emperor.Sometimes the father and son can even open their hearts and say a few intimate words.And the Taishanghuang also began to teach the emperor, as a king, the way of strategy that a king should have.

The Supreme Emperor already knew in his heart that his life was not long, so he began to arrange the way out.The first thing to be handed over to the emperor is the way of balance, which is the way the emperor summed up over the years to deal with the government.

Even at the last moment, the emperor and Jia Ke were placed in the foreground to fight in the ring, so that the two of them would not be out of balance.

If it were someone else, this trick would be very effective, and the two people in control would have little room to resist, but this time, Jia Ke has supernatural powers, and now Jia Ke's power is not what the emperor said he could control.

And their every move is also closely watched by Jia Ke.Jia Ke guessed that they were about to take action against him.He didn't believe that the Supreme Emperor would be deceived by the Emperor's trick. I'm afraid the Supreme Emperor had already understood that his time was running out.Start to teach the new emperor with all his strength, and then it is time to pave the way for the new emperor.With him as a stumbling block, the Supreme Emperor will be the first to be overthrown. Otherwise, after the death of the Supreme Emperor, how will the emperor gain power?
Sure enough, as Jia Ke had expected, one day the emperor had just put the emperor's attendant to bed, and the father and son started chatting on the bedside.

For some reason, it mentioned Jia Ke, and the emperor began to tremble as soon as he mentioned Jia Ke, as if he was terrified. The emperor did this, half of it was pretending.The other half was a little sincere, because every time he saw Jia Ke, he couldn't help thinking of that strange dream.And what his mother said to him at the end.These words were like ten thousand ants devouring his heart, making him suffer.

The Supreme Emperor lay on the bed, watched the emperor's performance, and asked, "Are you really afraid of him, or are you acting in front of me?"

The emperor controlled the trembling of his body, lowered his head and said to the Supreme Emperor: "Father, my son will not lie to you, I am half really afraid of him."

When the Supreme Emperor heard this, he immediately became angry. This is the emperor he personally chose. How could he be so cowardly that even a courtier would be afraid. In this way, how could he rest assured that he would hand over thousands of miles of land to him.

"You bastard, what's so scary about a subject, I can move this stone for you with just one word." The Supreme Emperor panted and reprimanded the Emperor.

The emperor looked helplessly at the Supreme Emperor, "Father, I'm afraid I can't help you now. You have supported Jia Ke too much. Now if Jia Ke has something different, I'm afraid we really can't control him at once."

The Supreme Emperor didn't believe his nonsense at all, just looked at him and sneered, "Do you really think that you can rest assured that I gave Jia Ke such great military power? Since I can give him the military power, I can easily get it back."

The emperor's eyes lit up after hearing what the emperor said.He always thought that the Supreme Emperor had a lot of trust in Jia Ke, almost to the point of no doubt.Unexpectedly, the Supreme Emperor still had a way to deal with Jia Ke, and this really taught him a trick.

If it was in the capital, maybe the army could really be under the control of the Supreme Emperor, but Jia Ke's confidants controlled the Xuanfu and the two towns of Liaodong.Once there is a change in the capital, the two groups of people will be able to gather in the capital within a day or two, and the world will be turned upside down by then.

"Father, don't underestimate Jia Ke. I have been suppressed by him for so long. Could it be that I deliberately showed weakness to him? This is because I really have no other way." The emperor finally said His scruples about Jia Ke.

Hearing what the emperor said, the Supreme Emperor became more and more disappointed with him. In the Supreme Emperor's heart, Jia Ke was his dog.This owner can kill the dog for meat at any time.Unexpectedly, his son was actually afraid of this dog.

"Why are you afraid of Jia Ke? In the capital, it appears that Jia Ke controls the entire army. In fact, many generals in the capital only follow my command. As long as things change, Jia Ke may not be able to mobilize a single soldier. "The Supreme Emperor said confidently.

"Father's words are too much. I'm afraid Father doesn't understand Jia Ke now. Could it be that Father has never thought that Jia Ke has controlled the Beijing camp for so long, so he won't do anything in it. Once Jia Ke takes control of the Beijing camp, we father and son will be puppets in his hands." The emperor said his guess word by word.

After listening to the emperor's words, the Supreme Emperor also became a little suspicious.After all, everyone has selfishness. Could it be that this Jia Ke is loyal to herself and has no selfishness at all.However, if Jia Ke has a little selfishness and deploys some people in the army, it is possible to gradually control the entire Beijing camp.

Thinking of this, the Supreme Emperor suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He didn't know why he made such a big mistake in his later years. He actually handed over the entire capital's army into the hands of one person, and he didn't even ask carefully for such a long time.

But the Supreme Emperor immediately changed his mind. He squinted at the emperor, and then thought in his heart that although Jia Ke has some power and selfishness, and can control part of the capital's army, most people will never vote for Jia Ke. On the other side, because these generals have been loyal ministers for several lifetimes, and each of them was carefully selected by himself before taking office, it is impossible for them to vote for Jia Ke's side. Now his military order is only given to Jia Ke by himself. Right, as long as Jia Ke is dismissed by himself, he will not be able to transfer a single soldier.

In the eyes of the Supreme Emperor, Jia Ke still did not exceed his control. I am afraid that the emperor deliberately framed Jia Ke, but now his illness may not be able to support him. Since the emperor is so afraid of Jia Ke, he will use Jia Ke as a torture Knife stone, make the emperor's knife sharper.

And now that the Supreme Emperor thinks about it, Jia Ke's power is indeed a little too big, almost all the military affairs and government affairs, and it's time to take this pawn off the chessboard.

The emperor saw the abnormality of the Taishanghuang from the side, knowing that the Taishanghuang wanted to understand the key point, and the corner of his mouth could not help but have a slight curvature.
