Chapter 84, Seeing the Royal Driver
Why did the emperor die suddenly? He wanted to attack Pan Xing? The emperor nodded, why did Xu Ban suddenly become an assassin? Xu Ban is a guard in front of the imperial guard who is deeply trusted by the emperor. The entire palace city defense is under Xu Ban's control. It is easier to do it. Five real-powerful figures left the fourth, leaving one of Pan Xing, and leaving Fengxiang. The new emperor Fu Rui is in power. The 18-year-old boy is the most energetic. His classmate has only one word to describe it, radical. The future of the Qin Empire will be bloody, and his peaceful days are over. What is coming is finally here, and Chen Qi also breathed a sigh of relief.
Liangyi Hall shines brightly in the sun, and the base has two floors. However, compared with the latest Daming Palace, the materials used in Daming Palace are cement developed by Chen Qi, which is much faster than pure stone buildings. Chen Qi followed the little eunuch upstairs and arrived at the gate of Liangyi Hall. The little eunuch stopped and bowed and said, "Young Master, please enter by yourself. Your Majesty will tell you that the young one will not go in."
Chen Qi nodded slightly, "What do you call me if you are a laborious father-in-law?"
"My servant is Huang Qi, the third son, come in quickly, the emperor is still waiting."
Chen Qi took two steps forward, looked at the side door but didn't look. He looked back. The little eunuch made a call and said that the side door was hidden. Chen Qi shook his head, "What the hell is Fu Rui doing?" After saying that, he pushed open the side door and walked in. The hall was empty and there was no one. Four copper furnaces were incense scattering thin smoke. Six huge black pillars supported the dome, and golden dragons were carved at the upper and lower ends of the pillars.
On the dragon chaise in the center of the hall, Fu Rui's mouth was slightly raised, and he looked at Chen Qi who was looking around with interest. Over the past three years, Chen Qi grew taller and stronger, about 1.87 meters tall. Walking on the streets of Chang'an, there were many old ladies and young ladies who frequently ogled. The first thing Daqin chose was handsome. Chen Qi was not related to the word "Shisheng". The sunny boy, the dark tendon flesh showed strength. Fu Rui praised in his heart. As expected, after the general, he was much more manly than his uncle. He was a lord who advocated martial arts. Daqin originally valued martial arts over literature. The first emperor Fu Yi was too correct. Fu Rui felt that every literary and martial arts complemented each other.
"You're satisfied now. The palace is just like this. It's nothing special. If you want to come in the future, come at any time, just like your master Xu Ban and Xu Botong."
Chen Qi smiled after hearing this. Fu Rui still remembered his childhood wish and was wondering if he would give a big gift to pay his respects to the newly appointed emperor.
Fu Rui slapped the dragon throne with both hands and stood up, "Why, I'm still not willing to admit defeat."
Chen Qi laughed out loud. The emperor was still young and bowed, "How dare you, how dare you fight against the emperor? The whole army is yours, and the first is yours. Sanlang has seen the emperor." Chen Qi has no serious official position, and he is not considered a formal guard at the eighth level. He cannot be called a humble minister or a grass-roots person. He might as well call himself a Sanlang.
Fu Rui pointed at Chen Qi, stepped forward and kicked Chen Qi, shook his head unhappy, "It's so boring. I thought you were as bold as before, but I didn't expect that you were as disappointed as others."
Chen Qi thought to myself that this is not nonsense. He used to be a classmate, but now you are an emperor. The emperor bleeds in anger. Who dares to be arrogant? "Your Majesty, you should call me now. By the way, the last emperor, what happened to my master, what happened? What did you want me to do?"
Fu Rui took Chen Qi's hand, shook his head, showing a hint of sadness that was not easy to detect, "There are two courtyards in the upper and lower courts, and the assassin cannot escape, but your master Xu Ban is so unexpected. President Cao explained that the latest news was found on the mirror platform. Xu Ban is the only successor of the Zongheng lineage. He lurked in Chang'an for many years to avenge his revenge for the battle of Lengquan more than ten years ago. Forget about it, we brothers will not talk about that, but it is the same as before. Xu Ban is also the sworn brother of his father. After calling him uncle for so many years, no one knows that Xu Ban is actually the successor of Zongheng. He has to pursue him. I will come to you and have something else to do."
The relationship between the Imperial House is indeed cold and weak. Or the children of the Imperial House have a tough heart and will not be particularly emotionally sad. Chen Qi followed Fu Rui to the back hall, without saying a word, waiting for Fu Rui's following. A map was spread out in the center of the back hall, and the shape was different from what Chen Qi understood. After all, the surveying and mapping level of this era was there, but it was roughly the same as later generations. Fu Rui saw Chen Qi following silently and looked at the map, with a bit of complacent meaning, pointing to the map, slowly saying, "This map is unique in the five continents, how about it?" and then pointed to Donglin, "Donglin's rebellion will be settled soon. Donglin will be handed over to you, so dare not accept it."
Donglin, what a joke, he dealt with several important officials of the court. Fu Rui became inflated. Not to mention that it was not determined by the emperor, even if the emperor made a decision, he would dare to let a seventeen-year-old boy become a chief official. It was too naive.
"Your Majesty, Sanlang is only seventeen, I dare to go, but I am afraid that I will not be able to go."
"Who can stop me? Based on my birthday, I am only seventeen. I am older than you for a few days. I will be in charge of the world. The military, political and financial powers in the Jingji area will be firmly held in my hands within one day. I am just Donglin. What are you afraid of? I am not like Chen Sanbang I know."
"Can this be the same? Your Majesty, don't joke. The nobles of heaven are not comparable to me, ordinary people." Chen Qi's flattery is gone.
"It's a little difficult to go now. Let's prepare for the future. What about the emperor and nobles? You are also a noble family. The founding fathers of the ancestors are brothers who are brothers to Emperor Gaozu. Donglin is stable and Luoyang is going to take them back. The emperor's uncle, King Yu, will return to Chang'an soon. The soldiers of the world gather together, and unification is just around the corner. You are my brother. I wish me a hand." Fu Rui was a little excited, with excitement and sincerity in his eyes. He stared at Chen Qi with a bright light. Finally, he made the decision himself. He was not as timid as his father. Fu Rui decided to attack the aristocratic family. The Duke's Mansion is no longer aristocratic family. The eldest brother said it was right, and he chose it right, and his master Xu Ban said it was right. There was only one chance, and the hatred with Pan Xing would be suppressed.
There are too many grievances in the court, and we have to suppress the overall situation. The history that Chen Qi knows, Yue Fei and Qin Hui, Yang family generals and Pan Mei, have been suppressed. If the emperor comes forward, what can you do? The root of everything is loyalty and filial piety.
Loyalty and filial piety are so interesting to the ancients. Chen Qi nodded in Fu Rui's expectant gaze.
"Then I'm really brave, but there is a condition to make me highly autonomous." After saying that, he smiled mysteriously, "I will definitely bring you a different Donglin, absolutely powerful Donglin that can sweep across the five continents."
Those who dare to make conditions are capable. Fu Rui believes in his vision. From childhood to adulthood, he always feels that Chen Qi has a trustworthy temperament. His various performances in recent years have confirmed his views. He raised his head and said, "Even if you let go, I will serve as your backer. We brothers are here to unify the world. Haha, it's not that difficult. Just what you said, you must have confidence first."
Fu Rui's words gave Chen Qi a shot of a heart-warming agent. His investment over the years has not been in vain. The old emperor is not close to his family. The fourth prince is also a cold stove. The emperor had already made up his mind to not be easy to save the throne. He sent the prince to Hedong for training, avoiding the struggle in the capital, and preparing to rectify the capital. He knew that the aristocratic family was a cancer of the Qin Dynasty and could not cut off his arm. The new faction was too excessive and it was necessary to suppress it. The transfer of Fu Zhongming was a signal. The old emperor was ready to continue to use the power of the aristocratic family to quench the thirst first and quench his thirst first. He said nothing else. Will the new party school sit and wait for death, of course not.
In the same year, the prince and the emperor died one after another, which made Chen Qi have bad associations. However, the association was in vain. Fu Rui was already the emperor. The radical Fu Rui would not have a basis for emotional relationship with the aristocratic family like the previous emperor. On the same day, five powerful ministers died or fled, and the military, political and financial resources in the capital were recovered. Fu Rui was a means. Follow him and walk well. Who is the person standing behind him? Could it be that the romantic prince-in-law Bai Shijie will succeed?
