Chapter 157: A few insiders

Needless to say, in fact, whether the people of Chen State or the people of Zhou State are good, they all know that the current situation of Da Zhou will not be too good.
Chen Guoqing’s nationwide effort to attack the Zhou, and with Yanling behind him as a backer, although Chen Guo’s army has not yet penetrated Zhou’s Beiyan County, no matter who looks at it, he will know that Zhou’s current status is true. not too good.
"Outside Beiyan County, we have been in a stalemate with Chen Guo's army for more than a year, and we have achieved some notable results. If both sides have the same military strength, I may have led the army across the border of Chen Guo and came to this land of Chen. Once on the ground, perhaps for some time, Chen Guo will only exist in the annals of historians, not in the world."
"It's a pity that the military strength of the two sides is really too far apart. Even if I have achieved more results, it will not help no matter how many people I kill, because the number of soldiers in Da Zhou is decreasing, although this speed is not as fast as Chen Guo's reduction. Speed, but if Chen Guo is the last one left, Da Zhou should definitely be gone."
Li Fuyao looked at the bowl of dumplings and frowned upon hearing these words.
Xie Ying pressed the hilt of the family heirloom knife with one hand, and pushed the wooden chopsticks with the other hand, before continuing: "I have been assassinated many times at the border before. I am not very happy. Now that I come to Huaiyang City, I am also trying to kill someone."
Li Fuyao took the wooden chopsticks and the vinegar dish on the side. He knew who Xie Ying was going to kill. In this situation, killing the Emperor Chen was more useful than killing tens of thousands of troops on the border.
"I said before that there are monks in this city, and they are not low-level. They are probably the masters raised in the palace. If you enter the palace rashly, I'm afraid you will die there. After you die, what will Beiyan County do? I heard that if you had been leading the cavalry outside Beiyan County without you, Beiyan County might have been broken."
Xie Ying said seriously: "I also said before that Da Zhou is in a very bad situation now."
Li Fuyao picked up a chopstick dumpling and ate it slowly. Because he was eating slowly, he could feel the taste of pork and cabbage, but he didn't know if it was because he was too nervous. He forgot to dip the first dumpling in vinegar. .
After he finished eating the dumplings, he asked, "Could you please tell me what you think, how to stab?"
After asking this question, Li Fuyao did not forget to order a bowl of dumplings for Xie Ying.
After the steaming dumplings were served, Xie Ying looked at the bowl of dumplings, feeling helpless.
"Look for a dark and windy night, sneak into the palace, find him, and kill him?"
Li Fuyao nodded, complimented a few words, and then said, "I'm wondering if you are so straightforward when you lead soldiers to fight."
Xie Ying smiled bitterly. He had no problem leading the army to fight, but he really said he wanted to assassinate the Emperor Chen, but he really didn't do it.
Several of Zhou’s jianghu masters came to Huaiyang City. Because they were afraid of revealing their identity, Xie Ying finally entered the city. No one would have thought that Zhou’s general would sneak into Huaiyang City, so he was in the city. No notice was posted about his arrest.
But the key now is that with Xie Ying alone, if he could sneak into the palace and kill the Emperor Chen, he would definitely not get out.
So this Xie Jiabaoshu, the hottest general in the Great Zhou Army nowadays, is ready to trade one life for another. Of course, this premise is if he can do it.
"Can you change it?"
Li Fuyao finished his last bite of dumplings, wiped his mouth, and said with a smile: "I have done a few things in Huaiyang City these days. You should find it interesting."
Then in the next half an hour, Li Fuyao told Xie Ying something about Huaiyang City nowadays. Luan Xiangguo, King Liang, and the Emperor, none of them left.
After listening to it, Xie Ying, who was holding the handle of Qi Ke's knife, stared at Li Fuyao in an incredible manner.
"I originally thought that you monks like to reason things the most. To do things, you would just shoot directly. I didn't expect you to have such plans."
"It is said that there are monks in this city of Huaiyang. If one is careless, his life will be involved. It is a great thing to be able to stay out of the matter. You only need to stay quietly in Huaiyang city with me now. , Looking at what happened next, it would be good to check the omissions and fill in the vacancies. After this event is over, we will return to Zhou."
Li Fuyao talked about his arrangements.
Xie Ying had even crazier thoughts, "Can you kill the Liang King together and let Qi King be the Emperor of Chen Kingdom?"
Li Fuyao was slightly startled, let King Liang rise up, and replaced the original Emperor Chen as King Liang. There is no doubt that Chen Guo will not pay much attention to matters on the border for a long time, but he has waited. For a while?
King Liang didn't know whether he was comparable to his brother in handling political affairs, but one thing was beyond doubt, that is, King Liang's military talents and ambitions were much stronger than his brother.
That being the case, after the turbulent days of the Chen Kingdom are over, I am afraid that the newly enthroned Emperor Chen will put more pressure on Da Zhou than his brother.
Therefore, Xie Ying was also reluctant to take the throne of King Liang.
On the contrary, it was the king of Qi, who had always had no idea about power and had no intention of the throne, but Xie Ying felt that he was the best Emperor of the State of Chen.
What is most beneficial to Da Zhou is the best.
Li Fuyao sighed and was silent for a long time before he whispered: "I'm actually waiting for him to leave, but he wants to stay and watch. Liang Wang is jealous of his influence in the Chen Kingdom temple, so I simply jealous of him. It is the realm cultivation base."
Xie Ying was startled, "Who?"
Li Fuyao said calmly: "The one who can really control the situation in Huaiyang City."
...
...
The night is deep in the palace.
Several things happened in the palace in the first two days, but the most important thing was not that the emperor called six Shangshu and a few imperial soldiers to enter the palace. On the contrary, it was the of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Xue Yu, who died suddenly in the palace. Things.
Xue Yu has been in the palace for too long, and it is already unclear how long it has been. The eunuchs and maids who work in the palace now only know that this eunuch, the chief of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, has always had a good temper and is very serious in doing things. After the position of the chief of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he has never been embarrassed, even those father-in-laws who bullied him before he became famous.
Such a personality was originally not suitable for survival in the palace forbidden.
But whoever wanted it, he actually reached the highest position step by step, and won the trust of the Emperor.
But the father-in-law Xue Yu was still dead.
Said he contracted a serious illness suddenly and died. But in fact, everyone in the palace knew that the chief was executed by the emperor because of his involvement with a certain prince.
In order to know the preferences of the emperor and the daily activities, the ministers in the court are willing to place chess pieces in the palace. Those chess pieces are the palace ladies and eunuchs who work in the palace.
Cashier, I said a few things related to the emperor, this is not a major event, but it is really a major event to be decapitated, but for so many years, everyone in the palace is tacitly aware.
But these chess pieces, in fact, never included the in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The position closest to the emperor’s majesty, almost even the emperor’s words and deeds in his grasp, so if you want to know the emperor’s whereabouts and preferences, in fact, you can go beyond everything and directly find the chief of the internal affairs office.
But since it is such an important position, the emperor naturally wants to arrange a very loyal talent.
Xue Yu is that person.
Only now, Xue Yu is dead.
Suddenly died in the palace.
When the old person is dead, a new person is naturally needed.
The replacement for Xue Yu was a young named Li Fulu. At the beginning of entering the palace, this little followed Xue Yu. There has always been a disciple in the palace saying that this Li Fulu is Xue Yu's son.
As for why he was able to sit in this position at a young age, it was actually very simple. It was because Xue Yu and King Liang had been implicated before, which he told the emperor.
Whistleblowers have never had a good reputation.
But if he informs his majesty the emperor, he can be said to be Chen Guo's loyal minister and he is devoted to his country.
Not annoying at all.
Therefore, after Xue Yu's sudden death, the young jumped several levels and took the position of the chief of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
There is no difference at the moment.
When the and maid in the palace saw Li Fulu later, she couldn't call her a little plum, she wanted to call Li Fulu.
Unlike the other people who forget to gain power once they have gained power, Li Fulu has not been arrogant and domineering after gaining power, as he always treats others with peace.
But it's a little bit more temperamental.
After the palace is banned tonight, there is no one in the palace wall.
Settle yourselves.
Only one big red lantern was carried and walked inside the palace wall.
The new chief Li Fulu of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The chief eunuch, with a particularly jerky face, walked very slowly in the night, step by step just like his life.
If someone has been watching the chief eunuch's every move in the night, you can see the new chief crying as he walks.
The red lantern shone on his face, tears kept running.
Li Fulu remembered what Xue Yu said to him the night before calling him into the room.
Li Fulu's lips trembled. Before, he asked Master if he had to use his own life to make this happen. Originally, it didn't matter if he was so anxious.
Then the master who had been in the palace for many years and didn’t look like a at all smiled and said,
I’m not a man anymore. It’s not interesting to live for a long time. It’s better to die when you’re damned. You see after that day Just go to Master’s grave and tell Master once. Other things are not important."
Li Fulu murmured: "Master, living is really more meaningful than anything else."
