Chapter 66 Usurped the decree
Chapter 66 Usturbation
Yuan Yan, Liu Shu and others were called out by several eunuchs in the middle of the night and soon arrived at Yang Jian's bedroom. Yang Jian was still sweating and his whole body was trembling. If it were said that after seizing the throne, the most guilty thing in his heart was to kill Yuwen Chan. After all, a nine-year-old child really did not threaten him, and this incident also caused the father and daughter to turn against each other. Now dreaming of Yuwen Chan is obviously an unknown sign. Even Yang Jian was unwilling to admit that he was seriously ill and had to prepare for the funeral.
"I will meet your Majesty!" When I saw the emperor, Yuan Yan and others bowed down together.
Yang Jian raised his hand and said, "No gift." This action started again. Yang Jian coughed. Xuan Hua and Mrs. Rong Hua quickly massaged Yang Jian's back. After a long time, Yang Jian recovered.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Everyone stood up, bent down and looked at the tip of their shoes to show their respect for the emperor. However, there was a look of worry on their faces.
"Putting an order, Prince Xuan immediately set out for Renshou Palace."
When Yuan Yan and others were surprised when they heard the emperor's order to summon the prince. These days, Yuan Yan and others were worried about the emperor's condition and the fate of the Sui Dynasty. If the emperor died suddenly, without the preparation of all officials, God knew whether there would be civil strife in the Sui Dynasty. Now the emperor finally asked the prince to come over and knelt down again: "Your Majesty is wise, I am obeying the order."
After Liu Shu stood up, he happily drafted the emperor's decree. Wang Shao and Feng Deyi looked ugly. Although they also knew that all the officials in the capital would definitely have many speculations about the emperor's illness, but they just guessed. The emperor refused to admit that he was seriously ill and had no clear intention. The officials did not dare to come to Renshou Palace to visit him. Once this order was issued, the ministers would not rush to Renshou Palace with the prince, and there was nothing wrong with the King of Jin.
At this time, they did not know that Yang Guang did not enter the capital as scheduled, and they thought that Yang Guang had already been preparing to contact various aristocratic families to abolish the prince. If the prince brought people to Renshou Palace at a critical moment, everything of Jin's arrangement would be in vain. As long as Yang Yong left the capital, even if the King of Jin found an opportunity to occupy the capital, it would also rebel. At that time, the Imperial Guards would not be able to defeat the entire army, and it was hard to say whether the Imperial Guards were willing to serve. However, no matter how anxious Wang Shao and Feng Deyi were, they could not stop the emperor from issuing the order. The two looked at each other and had an idea in their hearts.
Liu Shu's decree was quickly drafted and handed over to the emperor to see. The emperor nodded with satisfaction, covered the jade seal, and handed it to Yang Yue, preparing to send it to the East Palace as soon as tomorrow dawn.
After completing this, the emperor's energy was already ineffective, so he had to wave his hand to let the ministers retreat. In addition to the candlelight, Linfang Palace returned to tranquility.
Almost half an hour later, two sneaky figures flashed outside Yang Yue's room. They knocked on Yang Yue's door several times. The door creaked and opened a crack. The two of them quickly flashed in. A lantern covered with black cloth lifted a corner, revealing a ray of light shining on the faces of the three.
"Mr. Yang."
"Mr. Feng."
"Mr. Wang."
The three of them shouted lowly and smiled. Since the emperor came to Renshou Palace, the three of them had gathered several times. Yang Yue had a deep hatred for the prince, and Wang Shao and Feng Deyi and the lives of the two men had been suppressed by Yang Guang. There was no room for concession at this time. Wang Shao first whispered: "General Manager Yang, the emperor's will must not fall into the prince's hands, otherwise His Highness King Jin will have no chance."
Yang Yue said distressedly: "Our family understands that it only takes half a day to get from Renshou Palace to the capital. Our family really can't think of any way to make the imperial edict unable to reach the capital."
Wang Shao and Feng Deyi hesitated for a moment. The distance between the capital and Renshou Palace was too short. If it took several days to march, it would take only half a day to fast horses. Even if the imperial envoy walked slowly, it would be possible to arrive in one or two days. Yang Yue detained the imperial edict and concealed it for up to three or four days. At that time, no matter whether His Highness King Jin can succeed, Yang Yue would definitely die.
Wang Shao and Feng Deyi hoped that Yang Yue could sacrifice for the great cause of King Jin, but this was not easy to say in person. Of course, if King Jin could control the capital within three days and the emperor passed away at this time, Yang Yue's sacrifice would be worth it. However, although they did not know the current situation in the capital, they knew that it would be too difficult for King Jin to control the capital within three days. On the contrary, Yang Yue was the emperor's close attendant. During the time of the emperor's serious illness, Yang Yue had at least several ways to make the emperor die early.
"General Manager Yang, you will be sent to the imperial envoy tomorrow, and you will be sent to the sect when you leave. It is better to prepare the troops to intercept and kill them halfway." Wang Shao thought for a while, and it is unlikely that Yang Yue would directly suppress the imperial envoy. If the imperial envoy was intercepted and killed, this effect could still be achieved. Moreover, after discovering the imperial envoy's body, he would not immediately suspect Yang Yue.
"How about killing the imperial envoy?" Feng Deyi's voice sounded faintly.
"Kill the prince?" Both Wang Shao and Yang Yue were stunned.
"Kill the prince." Feng Deyi smiled sinisterly and said, "If the prince died, the emperor would be about to vomit blood immediately after hearing the news. Who can fight with the King of Jin at that time?"
Yang Yue and Wang Shao both frowned. Killing the prince was undoubtedly a trick to get rid of the firewood from the cauldron. It was just how to kill the prince. After Yang Xuangan joined the capital with the King of Hejian, Yang Yue and Yang Xuangan contacted Yang Xuangan. Now Yang Yue has dozens of dead soldiers in his hands, and the target of these people is also aimed at the prince.
There are only two ways to kill the prince. You either directly send assassins to assassinate or poison your diet. However, the prince has strict protection whether it is going out or eating. After several times, he had to give up halfway. After Sun Simiao was invited by the Eastern Palace, Yang Yue simply died of poisoning.
At this time, Feng Deyi mentioned the murder of the crown prince again, which made Yang Yue excited, but did he plan to use the little death warriors under his command to be useful? Yang Yue curled his lips: "Mr. Feng, this matter is easy to say, but how can he kill the crown prince?"
Feng Deyi smiled at the corner of his mouth: "How to kill the prince will fall into the imperial edict. Now the imperial edict is in the hands of Lord Yang, so please make some changes."
"How to change?" Wang Shao and Yang Yue both opened their eyes wide and looked at Feng Deyi with bright eyes.
"It's very simple. Just add one to the imperial edict. The emperor is on his verge. After receiving the imperial edict, the prince must arrive within half a day to see the emperor for the last time."
The two thought about it for a while, and Wang Shao gently patted his thighs: "Wonderful, in this way, the prince can only set off immediately. The fast horse sets off from the East Palace. There are only 500 guards in the East Palace, which is good to mobilize halfway. There are more than 200 miles from the East Palace to the Renshou Palace. If you can ambush in one place, it is not impossible to destroy the more than 200 guards of the Prince."
Yang Yue quickly lowered his head and thought, but shook his head for a while: "Mr. Feng, if you want to be foolproof, you must fight quickly. Otherwise, whether it is to alarm Renshou Palace or the army in the capital, the prince will escape from heaven. In this way, at least one thousand people and horses are needed, and the quality must be comparable to that of the prince's guards. Where can we find these thousand people?"
Feng Deyi said calmly: "We don't have it, don't we have it in our hands, nor is it in our hands? Not to mention anything else, it is possible for the Murong family to devote all their efforts to produce a thousand troops."
Yang Yue certainly knew the strength of the Murong family. Mrs. Murong has always been determined to take revenge. Now there are not a thousand dead soldiers in the Murong family, and at most they can reach a force of 1,000 troops by contacting another family.
"Murong family? But the Murong family's troops are in the capital, so how can we ambush the prince first when we pass?" Wang Shao asked in confusion.
"Hehe, this naturally needs to be calculated in time. General Manager Yang can send his confidant to Beijing first, and then let the imperial envoy slow down. As long as the imperial envoy is delaying one day on the road, the Murong Mansion will be an extra day, and there is no problem in ambushing the prince." Feng Deyi said proudly.
Yang Yue slapped heavily on his legs: "Good solution, no wonder my elder brother once praised him as the prime minister, and this is true."
Yang Su once talked about the general trend of the world with Feng Deyi. When he was excited, he patted his own bed and said, "Feng Lang should sit here." At that time, Yang Su was already in a high position and powerful position. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was the prime minister. Remembering the past, Feng Deyi stroked his beard and said modestly: "That was praised by Lord Qinghe Gong, but unfortunately Lord Qinghe Gong died of a bad life."
Yang Yue did it as soon as he said, and immediately took out the imperial edict and added what Feng Deyi said to the blank. At this time, the imperial edict was far less strict than the Ming and Qing dynasties. I never thought that someone would dare to change the imperial edict without authorization. Therefore, there were many blank edicts, and it was not impossible to add numbers. However, Yang Yue wanted to add more content. Fortunately, the decree had the intention to let the prince go to Renshou Palace immediately. Yang Yue spent a long time and added the content after carefully considering the words. Despite this, Yang Yue's words were obviously a bit small.
However, Yang Yue could only do this. Unless he could steal the jade seal and create another imperial edict, it would be impossible to do it perfectly. After changing the imperial edict, Feng Deyi and Wang Shao quickly looked at each other. After reading it, the three of them immediately smiled.
Yang Yue picked up a pen and wrote a letter to Yang Guang. After writing it, he thought about it and wrote another letter. He handed it over to Murong Mansion and sealed two letters. Feng Deyi and Wang Shao said goodbye and left.
