Be an emperor from drawing cards

Chapter 4 Who is the murderer? Ask for help in the middle of the night!
As soon as Zhao Yu said this, the lobby suddenly became silent.

After a while, when Zhao Yu was a little disappointed, it was Wang Pu who spoke first.

"Little Marquis, do you ever know these old things?"

Seeing everyone looking at him, the white-robed scholar took a sip of tea slowly, before saying:

"At the beginning of the 12th year of Daxing, Duke Zhao Ning of Ding Kingdom was poisoned in his mansion; in October of the 18th year of Daxing, King Zhao Fuzhi of Henan was assassinated on his way back to his mansion; in September of the [-]th year of Daxing, Ninghou Zhao Bing accidentally fell off his horse while hunting in the suburbs, and the medical stone was ineffective. Death... the above are all related to Suzong's reign."

"In the summer of the fifth year of Ganlu, Tao Guogong Zhao Ting died at the age of 32; in May of the ninth year of Ganlu, Changsha King Zhao Jia accidentally fell into the water in a dragon boat and died; in the autumn of the 12th year of Ganlu, the British Duke Zhao Chun was assassinated and died... All the above are Mingzong Matters of office.”

"March of the second year of Huangfeng..."

Huang Feng is the current year name of the little emperor.

Today, His Majesty ascended the throne at a young age, and it has been six years since His Majesty's biological mother, the Empress Dowager Xuande, listened to the government behind the curtain, and assisted the country's great general Huang Jingming.

"Mr. Wang, needless to say."

Zhao Yu waved his hand to prevent Wang Pu from continuing.

The other party's words were like a drum in the evening and a bell in the morning, making him sober in an instant.

Zhang Xiu, who was sitting on the side, opened his mouth, and finally couldn't help but said: "Young Lord, before the thief's death, he mentioned the word 'in the palace'."

"Stop talking..."

Zhao Yu waved his hand feebly.

The words of Wang Pu and Zhang Xiu had already made it clear that the one who wanted the lives of his whole family, the Marquis of An Guo, was the representative of the current imperial power, the emperor sitting on the dragon chair, and the queen mother standing behind the emperor!
Da Chu has experienced seven generations since Taizu founded the country south of the Canglong River.

The third emperor Wuzong of Chu suffered a severe illness during the Northern Expedition, and finally the treatment was ineffective, and he died in the army at the age of thirty-eight, leaving only a young son who was less than ten years old.

In order to ensure that the Great Chu regime would not cause too much turmoil due to his death, when he let go, Chu Wuzong chose the brother-in-law system instead of the eldest son inheritance system, and entrusted the great cause of Chu to himself His younger brother, that is, the fourth king of Da Chu, Chu Renzong.

The two have a deep brotherhood. When Chu Renzong was in power, he still took great care of his brother's youngest son.

But with the death of Chu Renzong, the next two emperors, Suzong and Mingzong, began to gradually alienate many clans from the Wuzong lineage, intentionally or unintentionally.

Not only gradually reduced the titles of the clans of Wu Zong's line, what's more, they even secretly sent people to kill these clans of Wu Zong's line.

During the nearly 50 years since the two emperors reigned, dozens of clans from Wuzong's lineage have fallen silently.

Although some people may see some clues in it, but fearing the imperial power, no one dares to appeal to the world, let alone persuade the emperor.

And now that His Majesty has ascended the throne, Empress Dowager Xuande, who listens behind the curtain, has even reached a tacit understanding with Huang Jingming, the general who controls the temple, in order to consolidate the throne in dealing with the clan.

Over the past six years, not only Wuzong's lineage, but even the clans of Renzong's lineage have been suppressed and purged to varying degrees.

It is not an exaggeration to say "the most poisonous woman's heart"!
Now, he also understands why his father Zhao Qin, Marquis of Anguo, often sighs and looks sad.

It turned out that he had already realized this!

"Father passed away, Yu was heartbroken and confused. May I ask everyone, what should Yu do in the current situation?"

Looking at the people in the seat, Zhao Yu asked with a sad look on his face.

The butler Fu Bo was frowning, Zhang Xiu frowned and thought deeply, only Wang Pu raised his eyebrows and said in relief:
"Young Lord, it's useless to think too much now. Why don't you finish the funeral of the old Lord and the assassination of the imperial court first, and then talk about other things."

"Now, that's all there is to it."

Zhao Yu glanced at Wang Pu and when he saw the other person smiled and nodded, he could only sigh and let Uncle Fu prepare all the arrangements for the funeral of the old marquis.

As soon as the business was discussed, everyone dispersed.

Zhao Yulin went out, but saw that Zhang Xiu was still sitting in his original position, and did not get up.

"Youwei, you have worked so hard all night, you should go to bed early. Fu Bo has asked his servants to prepare a room for you."

"Young Master, I feel that Mr. Wang seems to have something to say that he hasn't said yet."

Zhang Xiu hesitated for a moment, but still expressed his intuition.

Relying on the few words of the thief leader Ma Laosan, he vaguely realized that it was the imperial court's hand.

And that Mr. Wang came to the same conclusion as himself based only on clues, and even had a more positive attitude than himself, which shows that he is a man of great wisdom.

If this kind of person has no certainty in his heart, how can he take the initiative to come to serve the An Guohou Mansion, which has undergone great changes?

"Thank you Youwei for clarifying."

Zhao Yu glanced at Zhang Xiu in surprise, he didn't expect him to see this, it can only be said that it was his intuition as a general.

In Zhao Yu's view, Wang Pu, who was able to leave the famous "Ping Bian Ce" in Chinese history, how could he be stumped by such a trivial matter in his own Marquis.

…………

It was night, a figure came to Wang Pu's resting room, and knocked lightly on the door.

As the door opened, Wang Pu looked at the person in front of him, cupped his hands and smiled:
"I didn't expect that the young Marquis was so impatient that he came so early."

Zhao Yu stepped into Wang Pu's room and said with a smile:
"I have been thinking about it every day, and I have doubts in my heart. I can't sleep, so I came to see my husband to clarify my doubts. But Yu is a little curious. When does he think I will come to visit?"

Wang Pu closed the door, and asked Zhao Yu to sit still, Fang said:

"I think the young master will come to ask me after the Lord Hou is buried."

"Do you think Mr. Yu has a plan in mind?" Zhao Yu asked rhetorically.

"It's up to people to plan things, and it's up to God to make things happen. How can everything go as you want." Wang Pu said while making tea for Zhao Yu, "Young Lord, please!"

Zhao Yu drank the tea in the cup and said solemnly:

"Everything in the world is just doing one's best and obeying the destiny. I don't know if my husband would like to teach me to solve the confusion in Yu's heart?"

"I have three strategies, the upper, the middle and the lower. I wonder if the young master is willing to listen?"

"Please enlighten me, sir!"

Zhao Yu got up and left his seat, bowing deeply.

Wang Pu slowly stretched out three fingers, and said: "The best policy is to publicize the inside story of the assassination of the old Hou Ye, and tell the people of the world that today, the emperor slaughtered the clan for no reason. , Train soldiers secretly, store talents and raise hope, wait and see the changes, and wait for the right time. The next strategy is to offer Taihe to Daliang, and ask Daliang's soldiers to avenge the family."

After that, Wang Pu said no more and sipped tea quietly, waiting for Zhao Yu's choice.

Zhao Yu frowned and thought, and after a long while, he opened his mouth and said:

"Although the best strategy can really relieve Yu's hatred, this strategy is like pulling chestnuts from the fire, it is too dangerous."

In the past few decades, there were not many clans of the Zhao family who had been assassinated, but none of them rebelled, which is evident from this.

"Yu belongs to the clan of Great Chu. He was born as a member of Chu, and died as the soul of Chu. It was not the son of the Zhao family who sacrificed the land of Chu to avenge his personal revenge. Please don't bring up this bad policy in the future. In Yi Yu's opinion, it is the middle policy." There may be a feasible opportunity, but please tell me clearly, what is the right time?"

Seeing that Zhao Yu gave up the two strategies and chose the middle strategy, Wang Pu was quite happy.

Since ancient times, the emperor chooses his ministers, and the ministers also choose the emperor.

The up and down strategies are strategies, rather than Wang Pu's test of Zhao Yu's character.Now it seems that the other party's answer makes him extremely satisfied.

And Zhao Yu's last question made Wang Pu extremely satisfied.

This young prince has obviously grasped the most important point!
