Chapter 13 Want to Move
After Wang Sheng left, Emperor Sima Yu looked gloomy and said to the chief minister: "Go and call Director Wang over."
Marquis Guangyuan's method is indeed good, but...
As an emperor, sometimes good methods can be used or not.
Not long after, Director Wang came in slowly.
He is now the emperor's minister of Huangmen. Although his position is not high, he can often see the emperor. In terms of power, he is more powerful than other officials in the imperial court.
Not to mention, he was from the Langya Wang family.
"My lord, I would like to pay my respects to Your Majesty. Your Majesty will live forever."
"Get up."
For Director Wang, Emperor Sima Yu still trusted him more.
Compared to Wang Dun and Wang Chuzhong who have a greater desire for power, Director Wang obviously does not have much desire, and... is also easier to control.
"This is a secret message from the front line. Just take a look."
The chief minister placed the secret letter in front of Director Wang. The latter looked at it and his expression changed dramatically.
"This...this is a big deal."
"If it wasn't a big deal, I wouldn't have summoned you here. I want to hear your opinion."
My point of view?
Director Wang's eyes changed, and in a short period of time, countless thoughts seemed to flash through his mind.
"Your Majesty, in my opinion, I am afraid that King Huainan cannot punish you, but instead wants to appease him."
appease...
Another comfort.
Emperor Sima Yu sighed. In fact, he had already had this idea in his heart.
The ideas given to him by Marquis Guangyuan were usually the best.
However...
He, the emperor, did not give up at this time.
"Then there are other ways?"
Director Wang thought for a while and said: "Since King Huainan has too much power in Wancheng, it is better to send 20,000 soldiers there. In this way, General Zhang Guang will have enough confidence to speak. Your Majesty openly appeases King Huainan and at the same time,
The generals in Wancheng sent secret letters and edicts. With your majesty’s reputation, even if the King of Huainan has different intentions, it will not cause any trouble. At that time, your majesty can deal with the king of Huainan however he wants."
Director Wang, like Wang Sheng, had a very clear understanding of the emperor's thoughts.
If the emperor wants to save face, he must take care of the emperor's face.
Sure enough~
After listening to Director Wang's words, Emperor Sima Yu's eyes lit up.
"This method is great, much better than the previous one." Sima Yu couldn't help but clapped his hands.
"Your Majesty, this method is good, but it does carry a lot of risks. After all... with King Huainan's temperament, I'm afraid he won't let it go easily."
But let it go easily?
The emperor snorted coldly.
"I am the master of this empire. He, the King of Huainan, is nothing more than a minister. He will not let go easily. Do you want me to let go?"
Originally, the Huainan King Sima Yun was placed on the eastern front, with the intention of suppressing the Huainan King and weakening the Zong King.
Originally, the emperor had no intention of killing him.
However, you, King Huainan, have given him, the emperor, a difficult problem at this critical moment. Don't blame him for being such a ruthless emperor.
"This matter... will be left entirely to your disposal. I will inform King Mao."
Director Wang bent down very low.
"promise."
....
In the Xianyang Hall.
As usual, Wang Sheng had a good relationship with the Queen.
certainly...
It's no longer a storm, and there's one more person.
Orchid Palace Maid.
Well, the best way to gag someone is to pull her into the water.
Plus...
Queen Wang Huifeng's belly was already slightly bulging, and she could no longer withstand Wang Sheng's torture.
"I heard that the war on the front line is not going well. Your Majesty won't let you go to the front line to clean up the mess?" Gu
Queen Wang Huifeng leaned her head on Wang Sheng's chest, and drew circles on Wang Sheng's eight-pack abs with her hands, with a hint of drunken red on her face.
Wang Sheng shook his head and said: "Of course it won't happen, it's just because of some things about King Huainan..."
Wang Sheng briefly told the queen what happened in Taiji Hall today and listened to it. After listening, the queen nodded slightly.
"This frontline battle situation is too dangerous. If Wang Lang can't help it, it's best not to go."
"I won't go if I can, of course I won't, but maybe I will still go in the end."
Wang Sheng touched the queen's slightly swollen belly, and there was this tenderness flashing in his eyes.
"On your side, if you can give birth to a prince, things will be much better in the future."
Queen Wang Huifeng's face turned red and she said, "How do I know what's going on here?"
"Just rest in the palace these days. As for what happens next, only the future will tell."
...
More than a month has passed since Emperor Luoyang made his decision and King Zhang Guang of Huainan in Wancheng received the relevant information.
In the tent of Zhang Guangzhong's army, he held two secret letters in his hand, and there was an imperial edict from the emperor on the table in front of him.
There are two secret letters in his hand, one is from the emperor and the other is from Wang Sheng.
But regardless of the content of these two letters, it was good for him.
but...
Zhang Guang was not blindly happy either.
He needs to know more about the situation in Wancheng than the emperor who is far away in Luoyang, and he needs to know more about it than his lord.
Once the King of Huainan is really forced to rebel, I am afraid that there will be no way to start the war on the Eastern Front, let alone...if the King of Huainan rebels, his life will definitely be in danger.
Even if 20,000 troops were sent from Luoyang, it would not change much.
Plus...
It was not certain when the 20,000 troops would arrive, so the emperor was so anxious that he issued the edict.
Zhang Guang picked up the edict on the document again, and the expression on his face gradually became serious.
Judging from the content of the edict, it indeed appeases and encourages the King of Huainan a lot.
But that's all, it's just encouragement.
Instead, it demands more.
With King Huainan's temperament, I'm afraid he won't be able to endure it easily.
Writing now?
I'm afraid it's too late.
Zhang Guang looked at the secret message sent by Wang Sheng, his eyes flashing with hesitation, but it didn't take long for this hesitation to be replaced by determination.
Now, it seems that there is no other way to go.
...
"this...."
King Huainan looked at the edict in his hand, his face extremely gloomy.
"It seems that His Majesty is resentful of me."
King Huainan snorted coldly, and his expression suddenly became uncertain.
"What do you think this king should do?"
The emperor and his handwriting often contained reprimands, and those so-called incentives were only verbal incentives.
King Huainan did not see the emperor's sincerity in appeasing him, but instead felt waves of danger.
Sima Yun looked at the diners in front of him, as if he had not made up his mind yet.
"Otherwise, it will be the other way around." A guest suggested.
"It must not be like this. Even if the King of Qi is like this, it will be difficult to defeat him. How about your Majesty?"
"Yes, and there is Marquis Guangyuan in Luoyang. Your Majesty has also sent troops here. Although the Wancheng garrison has received kindness from the king, this is a treasonous thing. Whether he will help or not is one thing."
.....
The retainers and staff started to quarrel.
Sima Yun, the king of Huainan, waved his hand and said to the guests: "You go down."
It's impossible to say this kind of thing in front of so many people.
and...
