Chapter 557
Taicheng is small compared to the city, but Jiankang Palace is very large compared to the palace.When Liu Yishou brought Xiao Xie, Xiao Yu and others to the gate of the emperor's bedroom, Chen Yuankang had already brought the imperial physician and waited outside the palace.

Seeing Liu Yishou come back, Chen Yuankang was a little surprised. Actually, Liu Yishou didn't come back late, but came back too early!
In his plan with Wang Wei and others, Liu Yishou shouldn't have come back at this time!If he came back now, it would be difficult to remove the suspicion of slaughtering the Xiao family.

The script planned by the two should be that the emperor Xiao Huan dies, Xiao Xie and Xiao Yu go crazy and attack Jiankang, and then they are defeated by the elite lineage of Liu Yishou, who has already been ready to go, and then the rebellious army "disorderly" in Jiankang city. Robbery.

That's right, ordinary people don't bother, anyone related to the Xiao family, including the son-in-law, will be killed!In the end, it was pushed to Xiao Xi and Xiao Yu's rebellious army.

After these things are done, Liu Yishou will be invited back to "preside over the overall situation".

Everyone who should be killed has been killed, and Liu Yishou sits on the throne innocently. Chen Yuankang, Wang Wei and others are responsible for the doubts and crimes.It has to be said that they are really loyal to Liu Yishou!

It can also be said that these people are not just for the glory and wealth, but want to do a big career to help Liu Yishou rule the world and become the founding hero.

Guangzong Yaozu, bequeathed to future generations.

But Liu Yishou actually came back at this juncture!

Even though Chen Yuankang was quite wealthy, the astonishment on his face also flashed, and he couldn't put on that indifferent expression of "it really is".

"How is the emperor?"

Liu Yishou asked Chen Yuankang's imperial physician, Yao Sengyuandao.

Cui Jiong is Liu Yishou's confidant, but he is usually in Shouyang, similar to Liu Yishou's personal health doctor, who treats his wives and children, usually not in Jiankang, let alone in the palace.

And Yao Sengyuan came from a medical family in the Southern Dynasties with superb medical skills.Appearing in the palace is a matter of course.

Xiao Xi and Xiao Yu also looked at Yao Sengyuan, waiting for the other party's answer.

"The emperor's illness is very urgent, and it's inconvenient to see too many people. Please accompany the king of Wu into the emperor's bedroom for a briefing. Others can just wait outside the palace."

Yao Sengyuan bowed deeply to Liu Yishou and said.

Although Chen Yuankang and others had been in the bedroom before, and replaced all the idlers here with their own people, they did not enter the bedroom of the emperor Xiao Huan.This is also the fear of giving others a handle and affecting Liu Yishou's usurpation of the throne.

"Just wait here. Imperial Physician Yao, please."

"Please come to King Wu."

Yao Sengyuan slightly nodded and said with a benevolent face.

Xiao Xie and Xiao Yu also wanted to follow in. Hu Lv stood in front of the palace door enviously, drew out the big bow behind his back and threatened: "Whoever dares to step forward, I will strangle him with the bowstring!"

Hu Luxian is not an idiot. After reading "Spring and Autumn" so many times, if he doesn't even understand what Conglong Zhigong means, then he might as well stop messing around. It's better to go home and farm.

Xiao Xie and Xiao Yu looked at each other in blank dismay, and finally both sighed and stopped in their tracks.

……

Yao Sengyuan led Liu Yishou into the bedroom, came to a secluded wing, then closed the door, knelt down and bowed deeply to him.

"Just now in front of the palace door, this king knew that Imperial Physician Yao had something to say, so there is no need to salute like this."

Liu Yishou helped Yao Sengyuan up and said with a smile, he had already made a good guess about the matter in his heart.

"The Son of Heaven has always believed that the King of Wu will come back in a hurry, so he ordered Feige to pass on the letter.

The emperor was not sick, but poisoned, and he almost didn't survive!If this matter was done by the King of Wu, no matter how much the emperor tosses about it, it will be useless.This matter must have nothing to do with Wu Wang. "

Yao Sengyuan said sincerely.

It's hard to believe that a puppet emperor would trust the ministers who control him so much!Maybe Xiao Huan is not really stupid, nor is he really weak, but he has completely understood Liang Guo's political situation.

Since you can't resist, it's better to live quietly, and less turmoil can be regarded as benefiting the people.

"Go to the emperor's bedroom, the king will take care of the rest."

Liu Yishou sighed softly, knowing that he had underestimated Xiao Huan before.

Of course, this is not too troublesome. After all, Liu treats Xiao Huan very well. At least on the surface, Xiao Huan looks like the "Lord of Zhongxing" in the eyes of outsiders.

When the two came to Xiao Huan's bedroom, they saw the emperor in his 20s sitting quietly leaning against the head of the bed, his face as pale as paper.

"Your Majesty, I have returned."

Liu Yishou saluted Xiao Huan and said.

"My uncle is back, so I don't worry. Uncle is not here...that's really not good, I can't make it through the day." Xiao Huan said with a wry smile.

These words are definitely from the heart, not polite words.

After this wave of poisoning and assassination, he finally understood.

Only Liu Yishou, who valued love and righteousness and cherished feathers, wanted to keep him alive. The others, including his two younger brothers, including Liu Yishou's subordinates, all wished for him to die soon, so they shouldn't sit in that position to get in the way.

As for the other ministers in the court, let alone, after Liu Yishou ascended the throne, they probably licked even more!Who cares if the person sitting in that seat is surnamed Xiao!
"Did His Majesty order the pigeons to be released?"

Liu Yishou felt a little amused and asked, but after thinking about it, it was quite reasonable.

After all, Taicheng concentrated the superior resources in Jiankang City, and there must be no shortage of pigeons in the palace to fly to the government office of Pancheng.

I hadn't thought about it before.

"I asked Imperial Physician Yao to do it, alas! I also have no idea, but I thought that as long as my uncle can return to Jiankang, then the mess can be dealt with.

It doesn't matter if I die, but after death, King Danyang (Xiao Xi) and King Guangling (Xiao Yu) will definitely rise up and make trouble, and King Wu's trilogy will also be tit for tat.

At that time, Jiankang's life will be ruined, and I don't know how many terrible things will happen.

I can't take back the military power of the two feudal lords, and I can't dictate to my uncle's subordinates.

Only when my uncle returns to Jiankang, these things will not happen.

cough cough..."

Xiao Huan started to cough lightly, Yao Sengyuan quickly made him drink some medicine, and the other party's complexion improved a bit.

Seeing this scene, Liu Yishou's heart sank, he understood everything.

"I am not in good health. When my uncle said to establish a crown prince, King Danyang came into the palace to make a speech, saying that the lord is less suspicious of the country, and he will die. I hope that if the crown prince is still too young in the future, then the throne will be passed on to him. I have never promise.

The last time the big households of the Jiankang family rebelled, King Danyang secretly participated in it. This time, I didn't think too much about the poisoning and ate the cakes he sent.

I don't know why, other people didn't get poisoned after eating it, but I got poisoned after eating it. Doctor Yao sent someone to check it, but they didn't see any flaws.

They mutinied so quickly it would have been impossible if they hadn't known it beforehand. "

Xiao Huan let out a long sigh, completely hurting his younger brother.

In fact, Liu Yishou thinks that Xiao Huan is completely uncommon.

Based on what he knew about Xiao Xi, it was not strange for the other party to do so.

After all, in history, Xiao Xi would rather give up Xiangyang to Yu Wentai than let the commander of the Western Wei Dynasty drive straight into Jingxiang, let Yu Jin's army break through Jiangling, send his uncle Xiao Yi back to the west, and give the great rivers and mountains of Liang to the Western Wei Dynasty. When leading the way.

When Liu Yishou killed the members of the Xiao clan, he had to think twice, and he would not touch his hands if he could.Xiao Xi dared to do these things blatantly.

To be honest, Liu Yishou felt ashamed of himself and was willing to bow down when he thought about how those people could casually play out these scenes where sons killed fathers and fathers killed sons.

"Your Majesty, don't kill each other. I will take care of Jiankang's affairs. Please rest assured and recuperate."

Liu Yishou held Xiao Huan's hands and said.

Xiao Huan glanced at Yao Sengyuan, and the imperial physician immediately exited the bedroom, closing the door behind him.

"In the past, I always thought my aunt (Xiao Yuzheng) was stupid, and was coaxed by my uncle. Today, I finally understand that my aunt is right."

Xiao Huan sighed weakly.

Liu Yishou wanted to speak, but the other party waved his hand, motioning him not to speak.

"If my uncle is gone, or if he loses his power, the Liang Kingdom will be in chaos, and it will be difficult to even establish a country. Under the overthrow, the Xiao family will definitely be slaughtered and survive.

Although I am very incompetent, I don't want similar things to happen.

After I recover a little bit, I will hold a court meeting to let the crown prince succeed me. In the future, the country of Liang will depend entirely on my uncle. "

Xiao Huan held Liu Yishou's hands tightly, looking forward to it.

"Your Majesty, Wei Chen understands."

Liu Yishou nodded slightly and said.

"My uncle can't see my body, but I know very well that Imperial Physician Yao probably doesn't dare to tell my uncle the truth. I have been poisoned, although I was rescued, but my internal organs were injured, and it has been a long time since I completely relied on medicine stones. Not much more.

My eldest son, Xiao Dong, inherited the throne at the age of five, King Danyang and others will definitely not accept it.Everything is managed by my uncle, Liang Guo cannot be chaotic, and Jiankang cannot be chaotic.My uncle is very intelligent, and he will definitely be able to handle these troublesome things properly. "

The reason why Xiao Xi became extreme was largely due to Xiao Huan's "inaction"!
He thought that after he sat on the throne of the Son of Heaven, he could contact those courtiers and generals who supported him, take advantage of the opportunity to launch a mutiny, and take back the control of Liang Guo from Liu Yishou.

So when he saw Liu Yishou wantonly seizing power and reforming the system, but Xiao Huan let it go, and didn't even raise any objections, Xiao Xi was very dissatisfied!

It is only now that he wants to take advantage of the chaos to seize power by poisoning him. He has endured it for a long time, and even can't bear it anymore!

Xiao Huan understands this very well, but he also understands what is meant by "everyone has his own ambition".When people with different ambitions talk about the truth together, it becomes like chickens talking with ducks.

"Weichen understands."

Liu Yishou bowed deeply to Xiao Huan, feeling very sorry for the puppet emperor.

This person was reincarnated wrongly. If he lived in an ordinary family, he would live a stable and prosperous life.The profession of emperor is not suitable for Xiao Huan. He has no ability to govern the country, nor has the ability to lead troops to fight, but he is a sensible person who has seen through the situation.

It is very pitiful for such a person to live as an emperor in the Liang Palace.It is precisely because I understand but can't do anything about it, that's why I suffer and live an uncomfortable life.

It's as if you have cancer, you know how cancer works, and how it takes your life step by step, but you just don't have a cure for cancer.

In many cases, it is better to live foolishly and pretend that you don't know anything.

Xiao Huan is just pretending that he doesn't know anything, and then he will be a competent mascot with peace of mind.

Because of him, Liu Yishou and his subordinates did not massacre the Xiao clan.

He is now critically ill, and the fragile balance cannot be maintained. Liu Yishou's power of changing dynasties pushes him to add a yellow robe to his body.

When he was there, he was not taken seriously, and when he was gone, he realized that this puppet emperor was really a guidepost for stabilizing the court.

On the chessboard, every chess piece has its function, you cannot underestimate it, let alone completely ignore the function of this chess piece.

Xiao Huan is an important pawn that is very useful but often overlooked.

This time Liu Yishou was taught a valuable political lesson by Xiao Huan, and he felt a lot.

Fortunately, he came back without hesitation. If he was a step late, although he didn't know what the result would be, a fire in Jiankang City was inevitable.

Although Chen Yuankang and Wang Wei are wise people, they still can't see through the limitations of the times and can't comprehend the puzzle.Now Liu Yishou is obviously not suitable to accept abdication and ascend the throne to proclaim himself emperor.

When he was dying, Xiao Huan did what he could and should do the most: let Liu Yishou come back to preside over the overall situation!Because only Liu Yishou has the ability, status, and intelligence to deal with those complicated things!

Don't waste words with others, don't use words to raise people, this sentence is really very clear.

Liu Yishou sighed and accepted Xiao Huan's request.

"Uncle, within three days, can Jiankang's situation be stabilized?"

Xiao Huan asked softly, talking too much, he already showed obvious tiredness.

"Yes, please rest assured, Your Majesty."

Liu Yishou nodded slightly and said.

"Three days later, the Great Court Meeting will be held, and the Zhenhui will issue a succession edict to allow Prince Xiao Dong to succeed to the throne. I will entrust the relevant etiquette to my uncle."

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty."

Liu Yishou continued to nod.

Xiao Huan took advantage of the situation and lay on the bed. In fact, his condition was not as harmless as he appeared, and his internal organs were as uncomfortable as if they were being burned.

"Uncle... I beg you to do one thing, as a nephew."

Xiao Huan asked with difficulty.

"Your Majesty, please tell me that as long as there is something that can be done, I will definitely do my best."

"Uncle, in the future... please don't kill off the lineage of King Danyang and King Guangling. No matter male or female, leave a little blood for them. No matter how much our Xiao family commits crimes, we will take the blame, aunt is still very good to uncle.

For my aunt's sake, don't overdo things. "

"I'm afraid they won't stop."

Liu Yishou said with a sigh.

It can be expected that Xiao Xie and Xiao Yu's army is ready.When Xiao Dong succeeded to the throne, it was the day they launched a mutiny.

Of course, at that time, these people could make a lot of excuses, such as Liu Yishou poisoning the emperor, and then forcing the emperor to abdicate and pass the throne to the son of the emperor.

There are so many routines that have been repeated again and again in history, Liu Yishou is a little tired of aesthetics, and doesn't want to think about these fig leaves.

"Uncle, do your best, don't worry about what I think.

I was helped to sit in that position by my uncle, and I will never see the end in the future.When I was alive, I did my best, and the country became strong.I didn't make any fuss, under the Nine Springs, I also have an explanation to my ancestors, other things, I can't control so much, let him go. "

After finishing speaking, Xiao Huan slowly closed his eyes, and he no longer had the energy to speak.

Liu Yishou exited the bedroom respectfully, saw Yao Sengyuan at the door, pulled him aside and asked in a low voice, "How is the emperor's condition, to be honest."

Yao Sengyuan gritted his teeth and said, "The Son of Heaven was poisoned. It's a blessing to try to save him. I'm afraid...the time is running out. Hua Tuo's life will not help the matter."

"Thanks to your alertness this time, well done."

Liu Yishou patted Yao Sengyuan's shoulder in relief and said.

"Wu Wang is benevolent and loves people. The emperor believes that Wu Wang is better than his own brothers. There is no reason for me not to believe it."

Yao Sengyuan expressed his loyalty very implicitly.

"If you didn't pass the letter on by Feige this time, how many people would have died in Jiankang City in vain. The person who poisoned it was Xiao Xie, are you sure?"

Liu Yishou asked with a straight face.

"Subordinates...confirm."

Yao Sengyuan gritted his teeth and said.In fact, Xiao Xi was only suspected, because the emperor showed signs of poisoning only after eating the cakes he sent.

But what Liu Yishou wants is obviously not "doubt", but a firm determination!
After all, Yao Sengyuan is still from a family of officials and officials, even if he is a medical student, he is not a stunned young man, so he naturally knows what Liu Yishou wants to do.

"Go, go out with me to explain the situation, don't talk about the poisoning of the emperor, just say that the emperor is seriously ill but is fine, and a grand court meeting will be held in three days."

Liu Yishou said coldly.

"Well, this subordinate understands."

Yao Sengyuan replied cautiously.
