Chasing King

As far away as Xiangyang, the family members of the Han family have just received the bad news and are being captured by the family. However, Xie Zhongren, who is in the capital, is unwilling to be dragged down. He pretends to be seriously ill and is carried to see emperor Zhaowu.

He is very young, and his hair is all white. In addition, he has lost a lot of weight these days. In fact, he is a little different from the dying old man in the countryside.

As soon as he saw emperor Zhaowu, Xie Zhongren knelt on the ground with the help of the inner prison. However, as soon as the inner prison released his hand, his body shook again and again, and he was about to fall down, and his throat was still panting weakly.

Emperor Zhaowu frowned: "OK, OK, just sit on the ground."

In his early years, Xie Zhongren was very good at pleasing emperor Zhaowu. He almost knew the emperor's likes and dislikes clearly. However, when he got older, his brain was not as smart as before, and his actions were no longer neat. Emperor Zhaowu was in his prime, and he was more and more suspicious of his poor service. He was no better than Yan Sikong. Besides, he had a wrinkled old face and a beautiful jade face The more you see him, the less you see him.

Before opening his mouth, Xie Zhongren burst into tears and cried sadly: "Your Majesty, old slave We should die for all our sins... " Then he fell down and banged his forehead on the ground.

Yan Sikong looked down at the old eunuch curled up on the ground like a dog, his eyes as cold as the winter frost.

Emperor Zhaowu's fat body gasped: "do you know you should die? Your good nephew is going to give up my Liaodong! "

"Damn it Damn... " Xie Zhongren lay on the ground and cried, "old slave Old man's eyes are dim and he doesn't know people clearly. I wish I could Clear the door, your majesty... "

Yu Ji curled his lips and looked contemptuous.

Yan Sikong did it out of his heart and asked emperor Zhaowu carefully, "Your Majesty, why don't you give Duke Xie a seat?"

Emperor Zhaowu gave a cold Snort and looked at Yu Ji. Yu Ji understood and waved. At once, a small supervisor lifted a chair and helped Xie Zhongren to sit on it.

Xie Zhongren was very grateful: "thank you, your majesty I'll die... "

Emperor Zhaowu said angrily, "don't think I dare not kill you. I've ordered to copy the Han family! It was you! It's you who recommended him. I'll transfer troops and grain to him. He spends millions of dollars a year on military spending. If he is defeated, he will betray his country and join the enemy. You... " The more he said, the more angry he was. He grabbed the teacup and threw it at Xie Zhongren. The best Longjing was wet all over his body.

Xie Zhongren burst into tears: "I'm sorry to your majesty, I'm sorry to Liaodong people, but I'm sorry Risking my life to advise your majesty, now Don't kill Han Zhaoxing's family. "

Yan Sikong narrowed his eyes and thought that although the old man was confused for a moment, he should have known that things would not go so smoothly.

Emperor Zhaowu stared straight: "you How dare you plead with them? You're really tired of life! "

"Your Majesty misunderstood Cough... " Xie Zhongren coughs violently. He covers his mouth and nose with his sleeve. He sees spots of blood on it, but he doesn't know whether it's real or fake.

Emperor Zhaowu frowned.

"Your Majesty..." Xie Zhongren choked and said, "the old slave will never plead for the traitors. It's just that they are still useful. Han Zhaoxing's surrender to the enemy may be an urgent move. He must be afraid and regretful, old slave Cough The old slave wanted to write a letter and advised him to join General Zhao in a rebellion Han's family, old and young, can't go anywhere Cough, cough If you can't run away, your majesty, why hurry for a while? "

Emperor Zhaowu touched his beard and looked at Yan Sikong: "Sikong, he's right. Han Zhaoxing's family members are still in Xiangyang. They may not be useless to me."

Xie Zhongren also looks at Yan Sikong, his eyes are very difficult to figure out. Yan Sikong knows that Xie Zhongren is suspicious of him. No, as Xie Zhongren is a man, he can't trust anyone with all his heart, but he is even more suspicious at this time. He looks as usual and bows his hands and says: "you can try this plan, but can this letter be sent to Han Zhaoxing, what will Han Zhaoxing do It's hard to deal with it. "

"Your Majesty." Xie Zhongren pleaded, "old slave Cough Old slave, time is running out. I'd like to exhort you with my remaining days Cough Han Zhaoxing... "

Yan Sikong secretly spits on this letter. I don't know if it can be delivered to Xie Gou. Even if it is delivered, once it comes back, he has to make many secret plans. I'm afraid it will be a year and a half later. When Emperor Zhaowu's anger fades away, he can come back to life again.

What an insidious and cunning traitor.

Emperor Zhaowu hesitated. He leaned forward and looked at Xie Zhongren: "Xie Zhongren, I think you have served me for many years. I'll believe you again. But if I don't punish you, I can't explain it to all the officials and people in the world. What do you say?"

"I beg your majesty to let me After that, the old slave and Han's family will decide whether it will be successful or not Cough, cough I'll do whatever you want. "

"You How sick are you? " Emperor Zhaowu asked.

Xie Zhongren wiped his face with tears: "I'm afraid I can't serve your majesty for several days."

Emperor Zhaowu and Yan Sikong look at each other with hesitation in their eyes, but Yan Sikong looks back firmly. Facing his ministers and son-in-law, Emperor Zhaowu forgets the majesty of the emperor for a moment and turns away with a guilty heart.Yan Sikong knew that this fatuous monarch's indecision had been committed again. He was soft hearted and hesitant. Fortunately, he knew this man deeply and had already made preparations. Zhu Lanting had not yet taken office, and he was still in charge of the forbidden guard in the palace. He was angry with him early this morning. At this time, the forbidden guard was waiting outside the palace, just

Yan Sikong shakes his head and suddenly raises his hand to straighten the crown. All he hears is a fierce dog barking outside the palace gate. Then, a black haired hound rushes into the palace and pours at Xie Zhongren. The two guards chase him.

Everyone knows that Xie Zhongren is afraid of dogs.

Sure enough, Xie Zhongren looked at the animal running at top speed. He was scared out of his wits. He jumped up from his chair and ran steadily. He yelled "come man" in his mouth. He was also full of rage. How could he be like a man who ran out of oil?

The hound was Emperor Zhaowu's pet dog. He was always at the front of the pack when hunting. He was very brave, and he knew human nature very well. He didn't bite people. He threw Xie Zhongren to the ground, and then he pressed his chest with his two claws and roared loudly.

Xie Zhongren is about to be scared.

The guard rushed up quickly, pulled the hound's noose and pulled it away. At the same time, he knelt down to plead guilty: "I should die for a small sin, which frightened your majesty."

Emperor Zhaowu ignored them and pointed at Xie Zhongren: "you and I think you are very old and strong!"

Xie Zhongren was so scared that he fell to the ground and kowtowed: "Your Majesty atones for it. Your majesty atones for it. I'm scared Old slave... "

"Somebody..." Emperor Zhaowu said, "give me Xie Zhongren Get it for me! To be escorted to the Ministry of punishment for trial! "

Xie Zhongren sat on the ground and begged. Emperor Zhaowu was struggling, but he still watched him being detained.

After Xie Zhongren was taken away, Yan Sikong knelt down on the ground and said with chagrin, "I'm not good at doing things. I want to convey to the guard that I'm wrong in time, and ask your majesty to punish me."

What they discussed yesterday was that emperor Zhaowu touched the crown with his hand, and the guard would release the dog to frighten Xie Zhongren to see if he showed the truth. However, Emperor Zhaowu obviously hesitated just now. Yan Sikong's back hand, even when he took charge of the crown, would release the dog.

Emperor Zhaowu waved impatiently: "don't say it. I'm very upset. Go back."

"Your Majesty..."

"Get out of here, get out of here!" Emperor Zhaowu cried out in a loud voice, "I don't want to worry about any of them. Get out of here!"

Yan Sikong kowtowed and bowed back.

At this time, his heart was surging, and he wanted to look up to the sky and scream twice.

Xie Zhongren is in prison! Although he may repent if he sleeps tomorrow, his imprisonment is a great blow to the eunuch party, which is already in fear at this time. It also strengthens their morale, and makes the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty see that Xie Zhongren's decline has been decided, and he will be doomed.

He finally waited for the day to come!
