Chapter 411
Deng Shaojian didn't want to get rid of Ling Changzhi and didn't want to make enemies with the Ling family.
He has only one mission.
He fooled Sima Dou, fought to the capital to death, and dragged the imperial troops.
As long as Sima Dou can invade the capital, this layout will be considered the real critical time.
As for Wu Heng, I believe that there are troops from Liangzhou, Wu Heng is just a false alarm.
"It's very difficult for the general to get rid of Ling Changzhi! But it's not impossible."
"What method? Poison or assassinate?"
Sima Dou is indeed learning and applying it.
Deng Shaojian shook his head repeatedly, "If you want to kill Ling Changzhi, you can only snipe him in the battlefield. It is difficult to kill him in the capital. He knows martial arts and has loyal personal guards around him. They are all masters of the world. To be honest, although I have made arrangements in the capital, they are only responsible for spying on information and do not know how to assassinate in close proximity."
Sima Dou was very regretful, "According to the gentleman's wishes, I can only kill Ling Changzhi on the battlefield?"
"That's right! The general has food and has occupied favorable terrain. Even if the troops in Yuzhou arrive in the capital, they will not be able to do anything to the general for a while. The key now is whether the general has the courage to gamble and gain the identity of Taizu of the Sima Dynasty!"
Sima Dou's breathing became heavy in an instant.
His face turned red and his forehead was sweating because he was too excited.
He gritted his teeth, "As long as I attacked the capital, I can become the emperor?"
Deng Shaojian bewitched: "Of course! The capital is the most powerful city in the world! Why have dynasties spent huge amounts of money and food to build the walls of the capital? All because the capital is the core of the dynasty. When the capital is broken, it means that the dynasty is destroyed!
Even if the royal family and court officials still want to restore the mountains and rivers, they will only survive and will be wiped out sooner or later! As long as the general attacks the capital, a large number of court officials, officials, and military generals will surrender. At that time, the general needs troops and food, so why worry about the unfairness of the world!”
Deng Shaojian's words are too incitemental.
He seemed to be born to be a stimulating person and rebel!
Compared with him, Sima Dou is like the gap between a three-year-old child and the same adult.
This is a dangerous person!
But Sima Dou likes it!
He likes the feeling of his emotions being incited, his blood is surging, exciting, and his whole body is trembling.
He was so excited that he couldn't control his emotions.
He opened his collar and stared at Deng Shaojian, "Sir, teach me what should I do?"
Young Master Deng laughed!
Smiling very satisfied.
He read that right, Sima Dou is indeed the best candidate.
He has planned what to do next!
...
The news that Sima Dou was not dead soon spread to the capital.
The troops and horses in Yuzhou are about to reach the boundary of the capital.
One joy and one sorrow!
Sima Dou's not dead made Emperor Taining Xiao Chengyi's mood greatly reduce.
He originally wanted to give Ling Changzhi a generous reward, but he changed his mind temporarily and promoted Ling Changzhi's official position to a higher level and rewarded gold, silver and jewelry.
Ling Changzhi didn't care about rewards or promotion to one level.
He only cares, how could Xiao Yi make a mistake?
He believed that the masked man in black who was assassinated that night must have been led by Xiao Yi.
only……
How could Xiao Yi kill the wrong person?
Could it be that the sky was too dark, which affected his judgment?
Or was it that the situation at that time that there was no chance to kill Sima Dou?
No matter which reason, Ling Changzhi believed that Xiao Yi should not make this mistake.
Nowadays, Sima Dou's defense is more tight, and it is even more difficult to kill him.
He sighed.
Mrs. Xie stood up and massaged his temples to relax.
"Why is your husband sighing? The situation is improving at present, and the tense atmosphere in the capital has slowed down. Everyone is praising his husband. Even the food price has dropped a little. These are the credits of your husband, so you should be happy!"
Ling Changzhi was very regretful, "Sima Dou is not dead!"
Xie said lightly: "If you don't die, you won't die. Why do you sigh? If a great rebel who commands 200,000 or 300,000 troops is so easy to die, why should the court be in a hurry? Why should the troops in Yuzhou be summoned to help?
If a war can take Sima Dou's head of Xiang, I would doubt whether he killed the wrong person. Someone is taking advantage of the military achievements. Among thousands of troops, it is unlikely to take the head of the enemy's general in charge of the army," he said.
Ling Changzhi laughed, and he held his wife Xie's hand, "Are you saying I'm too eager to achieve success?"
Xie took his hand and sat back on the chair, right next to him.
She said slowly: "It is indeed a pity that Sima Dou is not dead. But have you ever thought about it? If Sima Dou dies, it will be a great contribution. How can the emperor reward you?
These days, I went out twice and asked someone to enjoy flowers and drink tea. I vaguely heard some statements. It is said that my husband insisted on sending troops and his tough attitude made the emperor disgusted. It was only because of the situation that the emperor had to compromise.
Once Sima Dou dies, it means you have made great contributions. I am afraid that next, the emperor will either send you to the northern front line to beat Wuheng to eat sand, or seize your military power and start suppressing you in all aspects. In this situation, I feel that it is just right! Your Majesty cannot suppress you, but he will continue to reuse you!"
Ling Changzhi frowned and said, "What the wife said makes sense. Actually, I have thought about what you said. After all, I was unwilling to accept it and missed a great opportunity. As for the emperor, you don't have to worry about him suppressing me, or let me go to the north to beat Wuheng to eat sand."
"Honey, did you have a solution?"
Ling Changzhi smiled, "The court officials have long been dissatisfied with Your Majesty. Since the court officials forced the palace at the end of last year, in private, everyone has been talking about it."
Xie's face changed and he asked quietly: "Is Your Majesty really a lonely star who will harm the Great Wei Dynasty? Does anyone know what Lord Wu of the Imperial Heaven Supervisor calculated that day?"
"Mr. Wu has already escaped, and now no one can find him. Maybe he is dead, maybe he is hiding in some mountain valley."
Xie sighed, "Mr. Wu is also pitiful. He is a good official from the Imperial Heaven Supervision Bureau. The whole family is forced to escape. I don't know whether it is life or death! But after thinking about it carefully, perhaps it is because the result of the word test is a bad omen that he has to escape."
"Even if it is a good omen, the emperor and the queen mother will not allow him to live in the world. No one except the parties involved knew what happened in Changle Palace that day. Even some scraps of materials were reported. Lord Wu, as one of the parties involved, was not a royal family, and he could not escape the word "death" no matter what!"
"My husband is right! But, what does this have to do with his husband's current situation? Are the court officials planning to force the palace again?"
Ling Changzhi held his wife Xie's hand tightly, "As long as I do not rebel, the court officials will never allow the emperor to suppress me, and will not agree to send me to the northern frontline to eat sand. If the emperor insists on his own, he will never be able to directly underestimate him."
Xie exclaimed and quickly covered his mouth.
"Is this possible? Will it be..."
"Uncle is about to arrive in the capital!" Ling Changzhi suddenly changed the topic, "The capital will become particularly lively by then. You know a little about my uncle's temper, guess what he will do?"
Xie's heart was pounding and he didn't dare to think deeply.
Ling Changzhi laughed, "Don't be afraid! Promising husbands are here, no one can hurt you! If you are really worried, it's better to take the children back to your hometown first to ensure safety."
Xie shook his head repeatedly, "I want to be with you! But, you can send the children back first."
Ling Changzhi said: "You have the idea whether the children will send them away or continue to stay in the capital. The question now is, the uncle is coming, will the emperor let him lead his troops into the capital?"
"Do you want your uncle to lead his army into the capital?" Xie asked cautiously.
Because she knew that as long as Ling Changzhi helped him, Shi Wen, the Marquis of Pingwu, had a great chance to bring Yuzhou troops into the capital.
However, under normal circumstances, local soldiers can only be stationed outside the city and cannot step into the capital.
How to operate depends on his attitude.
Ling Changzhi gently tapped the table, "I have to talk to my uncle!"
Only after the talk can he make the right decision.
Xie lowered his voice and said, "No matter what happens in the future, I hope you don't get involved. In any case, you can't bear the reputation of being unfamous. Some things can be postponed without rushing for a while. We are still young and have enough time."
Ling Changzhi laughed and said, "Don't worry! I won't be a traitor!"
Xie suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
The Ling family and the Xie family should not bear the reputation of being unfamous and should not be scolded by people all over the world.
They are loyal ministers, and they have always been like this!
The reputation of a family must be maintained for generations to show its power!
Now when it comes to Ling family or Xie family, anyone should say "good"!
The words of the Ling family are more effective than imperial edicts in the local area.
These are not relying on force, but good reputations that have resounded throughout the world!
As the saying goes, the name of a person and the shadow of a tree!
As a clan wife of the Ling family, she has the responsibility to ensure that her husband will not make big mistakes and ruin the reputation of the entire family.
She leaned in his arms, "If my uncle wants to lead troops into the capital, his Majesty will most likely not agree. In fact, you can give it a compromise and let your uncle lead a part of the army to station in the capital. In this way, you will have less pressure."
Ling Changzhi patted her on the shoulder, "When my uncle arrives, we will discuss this matter. As for you, if you have time, go out for more walks and invite the ladies in the capital to drink tea and appreciate the flowers!"
Xie laughed, "Don't worry, I know what to do. You want to ask for information, just leave it to me."
