Become a feudal king from today

Chapter 66 Zhao Heng’s decision

Ode to Miyagi.

Nanzhangmen.

Guan Zhong straightened his clothes. Inside the tall city gate in front of him was the emperor's residence.

Inside the entrance, there is a majestic palace with red walls and blue tiles, and full of sculptures, galleries and paintings.

On the corridor paved with bluestones, palace maids and eunuchs in gorgeous palace costumes came and went from time to time.

At the door, the Imperial Guards soldiers in bright armor stood solemnly without any expression.

But he knew that if he dared to break in without permission, he would be chopped into pieces immediately.

"You two take the wine away, and you come with me."

At this time, a group of eunuchs came out from the door. The older eunuch shouted to the other younger eunuchs to bring wine and came to Guan Zhong.

"The palace is no different than anywhere else. When you enter the palace, don't look around or walk around casually. Just wait where I ask you to." The eunuch reminded him as he walked.

He was sent by Liang Cheng to take over Zhong's entry into the palace.

Guan Zhong's nervous palms were sweaty, he was just a servant of King Yan.

Now I have met Manager Liang again in just a short period of time, and now I have met the Emperor again. What an honor it is.

Just this trip is enough for him to brag about for a lifetime.

But at the same time, he also knew in his heart that these big shots did not want to see him, but wanted to see King Yan.

Therefore, he deeply understood the truth that if he wanted to be prosperous and wealthy, he had to follow King Yan.

"Definitely, definitely." Guan Zhong agreed, took a few steps forward, and quietly pressed a certain amount of silver into the hand of the eunuch who was leading the way.

The eunuch weighed it, his smile became warmer and he spoke more.

"Prince Yan has gone to Yan County. Everyone in the palace said that Prince Yan did not know how much suffering he would have to endure there. Unexpectedly, he was a blessing in disguise. His brain disease was cured and he still made such a big fuss."

"The emperor's meeting with you this time is tantamount to telling everyone that he will be waiting to see King Yan in the future. After all, there are countless pairs of eyes staring at this important palace."

"..."

Guan Zhong listened and nodded frequently.

After following the eunuch for a long time, he finally stopped in a room.

At this point, the elderly eunuch retreated, and Liang Cheng came out to greet him and led him to a pair of bead curtains.

Guan Zhong didn't dare to look up, but through the bead curtain he could see a pair of feet wearing gold lace shoes.

He quickly knelt down and shouted: "The slaves of King Yan's family pay homage to the emperor. Long live the emperor, long live, long live the emperor."

"Get up."

Zhao Heng raised his eyes and glanced outside the bead curtain, stood up and walked slowly to the window, seemingly unintentionally asking: "When did King Yan recover from his illness, and what did he do in Yan County."

"Back to the emperor, it has been more than a month since His Highness recovered from his illness. At that time, the wealthy people in Yan County bullied His Highness because of his illness and occupied the palace property..." Guan Zhong ordered Zhao Xu to sell the ice-making technology to the wealthy people one by one, and later brewed fine wine. , established a pro-army, and then told the story of getting rid of the Huang and Du families.

Zhao Heng nodded while listening, and at the end there was a hidden smile at the corner of his mouth.

Although he already knew about these things, King Yan's people said it personally that he still looked at this ninth son with admiration.

He believed that any prince in that situation would not be able to do better than the Ninth Prince. ‘

After all, not everyone can figure out how to make ice and brew wine.

"His Royal Highness Ninth studied most diligently when he was in the palace. Now that he has recovered from his illness, he has emerged as a distinguished figure." Liang Cheng added.

He had served Zhao Heng since he was a child, and he could often guess the emperor's thoughts from Zhao Heng's subtle expression.

Although Zhao Heng didn't show it when he mentioned King Yan for the first time, he thought about it after he returned.

Therefore, during this period of time, he took care of King Yan not just for his own personal gain, but more for the emperor's sake.

Now that Zhao Heng is willing to meet the slaves of Prince Yan, it shows that Zhao Heng has the idea of ​​​​using this prince again.

"That's true." Zhao Heng had to admit this. The Ninth Prince did work hard.

Turning around and looking at Guan Zhong, he said: "Please give King Yan a message. My original intention was for him to keep a low profile in Yan County, become a wealthy prince, and have a lifetime of leisure. But these days, he is making ice and making ice. He is a wine seller, and no one in the capital knows that there is also a King of Yan in Yan County, and he is keeping a low profile now. "

After a pause, he said: "Tell him again, even though he was doing great things in Yan County, he must be careful and not act recklessly to save his own life. However, there is no need to be too timid and praise the royal family. As one, he is the prince of Dasong no matter what."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Guan Zhong was delighted when he heard this.

These words mean that the emperor agrees with King Yan's actions in Yan County.

And there is a hint of secret support. If so, King Yan will have greater reliance in Yan County in the future.

Zhao Heng nodded and continued: "Also, let him not blame me for sending him to Yan County. He and I are father and son, and we are also monarchs and ministers. I can demote officials due to temporary happiness and anger, and naturally I can also demote princes."

"Your Highness is afraid that he will not be able to fulfill his filial piety under the Emperor's knees, and he will never complain to the Emperor." Guan Zhong said hurriedly.

"That's right, after all, blood is thicker than water." Liang Cheng said with a smile.

Zhao Heng raised his hand at this time, "Okay, you can go back. I will issue an edict to him in the next few days, so he can listen carefully."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Guan Zhong responded, bowed and exited the hall.

Liang Cheng sent Guan Zhong to the door and turned back.

"This time, King Yan should be relieved." Liang Cheng lifted the bead curtain.

Zhao Heng walked out and nodded slightly.

He could still guess what King Yan was thinking.

He was alone in Yan County, so he naturally wanted to maintain the relationship with him.

After all, everyone thought that by sending King Yan to Yan County, he basically gave up on King Yan.

Now, if he responds, this alone can scare many young people.

But there are advantages and disadvantages, and this time it will also bring a lot of hostility to him.

However, King Yan's business made him famous, and he couldn't hide it even if he wanted to.

Therefore, he decided to change his attitude and tell the world openly that he was the son of King Yan.

"Mo Zhai is already in charge of Yanguan, and now that King Yan is joining us, we are the horns of each other. I, Da Songbei Xinjiang, should be able to be more reliable." Zhao Heng let out a breath.

This was one of the reasons why he decided to support King Yan when he learned that King Yan had recovered from his illness.

As long as the northern border is not broken, although the powerful clans in Dasong are secretly separatist, Dasong will at least be able to live in peace and harmony.

But if the northern border is broken, Dasong will never have peace again, and he knows this clearly.

As for the Yuan family, he was not at ease.

After all, if the Yuan family relies on its own troops and falls to Beidi or Xiliang, Dasong's northern barrier will be destroyed overnight.

Based on this, he must also support King Yan to secure Yan County.

"This can only be said that the emperor is deeply loved by God. If other princes entered Yan County, something would happen on the way. King Yan was crazy and stupid at the time, which made the Yuan family and the wealthy families of Yan County relax their vigilance, which allowed him to have The opportunity has taken hold," Liang Cheng said flatteringly.

Zhao Heng laughed loudly when he heard this.

For him, King Yan's affairs were indeed unintentional.

However, although he has decided to support King Yan in the court, the strength of his support depends on the performance of King Yan's subordinates in Yanzhou.

After all, he could not control what King Yan did in Yan County.

And once he gives an order to appease King Yan, those who are hostile to King Yan will definitely target him.

If he couldn't stand it in the end, he could recall him and make him an idle prince.

But he has lost value since then. When he returns to the capital, he has no support from powerful people and is nothing.

And when he drives to the west, I'm afraid even the idle prince won't be able to do it.

"Xu'er, don't let your father down." Zhao Heng said.
