Who Is The Protagonist’s Best Friend? I Want To Be A Villain

Chapter 83: What Credibility Do Traitors And Traitors Have?

Wu Sen, commander of the Imperial City Department, came to the palace and reported to Qianhuanghui:

"Your Majesty, someone is spreading rumors about you, saying that you only have three months left to live."

When Wu Sen finished his report, Eunuch Li's face darkened. He deliberately concealed this, but Wu Sen reported it to Emperor Qian.

Emperor Qian glanced at Eunuch Li, and then asked: "When did this rumor appear?"

"This rumor came out yesterday. The Imperial City Division has been investigating the source of the rumor and has arrested some of the rumor makers."

"Check, check everything for me."

Qianhuang placed his palm on his heart, and there was severe pain in his heart.

"Your Majesty, calm down. The imperial doctor said you can't be angry now." Eunuch Li quickly helped Emperor Qian calm down.

"Didn't you just call them quacks?"

Emperor Qian had no expression on his face.

"Before the imperial doctor's examination, they knew that I only had three months left to live. It's really amazing." Emperor Qian's tone was very serious.

"Your Majesty, the person spreading the rumors may be the one who poisoned me."

"Wu Sen, dig them out. If you can't do it, you don't have to continue to be the commander of the Imperial City Division." Emperor Qian ordered Wu Sen.

"As commanded."

"Focus on the Prime Minister's Mansion."

When Wu Sen left, Huang Huang reminded Wu Sen.

"Eunuch Li, who do you think I should make the crown prince?"

Emperor Qian asked Eunuch Li.

He has never established a prince, but now he has to establish a prince.

"I don't dare to speak nonsense."

This kind of thing is undoubtedly the most taboo. Even if he is deeply trusted by Emperor Qian, he would not dare to talk about it.

Emperor Qian frowned. Since ancient times, he has established direct descendants but not elders, and established elders but not virtuous ones.

But from the bottom of his heart, Emperor Qian still hoped to establish the most capable prince as the crown prince.

The Great Qian Dynasty is in turmoil, and without ability it is impossible to carry the heavy burden.

But Emperor Qian didn't know his son very well. Since he ascended the throne, he had racked his brains to fight openly and secretly with the prime minister.

Coupled with the time it took to practice, he didn't even go to the harem often, let alone care about his children.

So he doesn't know who is wiser.

"It's better to follow the ancient teachings."

There was not much time left for him, and Emperor Qian had no time to test him.

Therefore, Emperor Qian planned to make the eldest prince Xia Yu the crown prince.

Xia Yu is the son of the former queen and can be regarded as his eldest son.

Although he made the decision in his heart, he did not say it out loud. He had to be prepared if he wanted to establish a prince.

"Your Majesty, what should Zhou Shilin do? He killed General Chen Lan and led his army to fight against the Black Tortoise Battalion. He is already considered a traitor.'

"Isn't it said outside that he poisoned me and tried to kill me? Then let him be proven guilty and hold him accountable."

Emperor Qian said coldly.

"Your Majesty, wouldn't this be an advantage to the people who are really surrounded by you?

Eunuch Li doesn't think the rumors are true either. It should be that the real poisoner deliberately confuses the public.

If they let Zhou Shilin take the blame, wouldn't they let the real mastermind succeed?

Emperor Qian sneered:

"It just so happens that they thought their plan was successful and then relaxed their vigilance, making it easier to find them all."

"Inform Prime Minister Wang Bo and ask him to assist General Chen Yi in wiping out the rebellious Youzhou Army. Tell him this is an order.

Emperor Qian had a deep chill in his eyes.

This time, he would not allow Wang Bo to refuse.

"And the adopted son of Lin Ye. I remember that I tried to instigate rebellion before. Try again. If you don't understand, we will destroy him together."

"If he agrees, then we can make him the Marquis of Zhenbei, and he will inherit the title of King of Zhenbei in the future."

After speaking in one breath, he asked Eunuch Ji to carry out his order.

Emperor Qian went to the Zongren Mansion.

The Zongren Mansion represents the power of the Da Qian royal family, but the relationship between Emperor Qian and the Zongren Mansion is actually not good.

The reason? Let's talk about the time when he didn't become Emperor Qian. At that time, the clan government supported the prince.

At that time, Qianhuang Xia Yan was not a prince. He was an inconspicuous one among his brothers and sisters.

However, because he felt that he was easy to control, Prime Minister Wang Bo chose to support him in his fight for the throne.

The final winner is naturally him. The former prince is the biggest loser, and his end is naturally death.

At that time, the clan government protected the prince and hoped that he would give the prince a way to survive, but Emperor Qian still chose to kill him. Keeping him would be the biggest hidden danger.

After all, in terms of orthodoxy, he who was named the prince is the real orthodoxy.

It was precisely because of this that the relationship between him and the clan fell to a freezing point.

Now, Xia Yan wants to ease the relationship with the Zongren Mansion.

If he really only has three months to live, it would be best if his son wants to secure the throne and get the support of the clan government.

At the Prime Minister's Mansion, Eunuch Li personally came to convey Emperor Qian's imperial edict.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, this is your Majesty's order. I hope you will not refuse.~,

Before leaving, Eunuch Ji gave Wang Bo a pitiful look.

"Father, what does this old eunuch mean? Is he threatening you?"

Wang Heng thought of Eunuch Li's sinister eyes and felt a little angry.

After Wang Bo thought for a while, he said: "It's not him who threatens me, it's his master who threatens me.

"It seems that the rumors outside are not necessarily all false. Maybe Emperor Qian really doesn't have much time left to live."

"This is a good thing." Wang Heng was pleasantly surprised.

With Emperor Qian Xia Yan dead, they would have the opportunity to usurp power and seize the throne of the Xia family.

The emperors take turns, and this year I will come to my house. The Xia family has been the emperor for more than a thousand years, which is enough.

"You think this is a good thing? What do you think a dying emperor will do?"

Wang Bo glanced at his son, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes. With his son's wisdom, even if he captured the world, he didn't know whether Wang Heng could hold it.

His grandson Wang Yao is not a person with extraordinary IQ or extraordinary talent.

Fortunately, he has a long lifespan. With his Great Grandmaster's two hundred years of life, he is actually in his prime now.

If you can make a breakthrough and step into the realm of land gods, you will have a life span of five hundred years.

Thinking of the extraordinary strength and lifespan of the land gods, Wang Bo felt a trace of desire in his eyes.

It's a pity that after decades of reaching the peak of Great Grandmaster, he still failed to take the final step and enter the realm of land gods.

"Remember, a dying person is often the most dangerous, especially if he is the most powerful dying person."

Wang Bo educated Wang Heng.

Wang Heng is not an extremely intelligent person, but he is not a fool either. After Wang Bo's reminder, he already understood.

"The Emperor Qian will do whatever it takes to deal with our Prime Minister's Mansion."

"Yes, if I refuse, I'm afraid Emperor Qian will completely fall out with me in an instant." Wang Bo nodded.

"Grandpa, are we still afraid of falling out with Emperor Qian? I think it would be better to fall out with him directly. My father led two battalions of troops directly into the palace and reached Emperor Qian.

Wang Yao suggested from the side.

There was longing in his eyes. If his grandfather Wang Bo succeeds in calculating power, then he will be the emperor's grandson, and the future throne will be his.

"madness."

Wang Bo scolded.

There was disappointment in his eyes. He named him Wang Yao because he wanted to bring glory to the Wang family. It seemed that he did not have this ability. The most he could do was pass on the family lineage to the Chou family.

"The Great Qian Dynasty has been inherited for more than a thousand years, do you think it can be subverted so easily?"

Not to mention the hidden power, Wang Bo felt that it would be difficult to win even with the power of the Prime Minister's Palace.

"First do what Emperor Qian said and cooperate with the Black Tortoise Battalion to deal with the Youzhou Army. There is no chance of getting benefits this time."

Wang Bo's eyes flashed.

After defeating the Youzhou Army, you can capture the elite Youzhou Army, train them into your own soldiers and horses, and continue to sell their fortunes.

If Emperor Qian really only has three months to live, if he survives these three months, the future will be smooth.

When the time comes, when the new emperor ascends the throne, he will never let the new emperor escape his control like the Qian Emperor.

"But in order to resist the pressure exerted by Emperor Qian in the past three months, we still need to pay a visit to Cao Xu."

As long as Cao Xu joins forces with him, Wang Bo will have absolute confidence even if Emperor Qian completely breaks up with him.

In Prince Wei's Mansion, Cao Xu was half lying in Shen Mei'er's arms, enjoying Lu Qingli's sword dance and Su Linggui's piano music.

"This is really too decadent, but I like it."

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is here and wants to see you.

The maid carefully reported to Cao Xuhui.

I came here to disturb the prince's interest. I wonder if the prince will be angry.

"That old guy came so fast."

Cao Xu had already guessed that Prime Minister Wang Bo would come.

"Tell him that it is inconvenient for me and ask him to wait for a while."

Guessing Wang Bo's purpose, Cao Xu was not in a hurry, and was not afraid that Wang Bo would be angry if he waited.

Now that Wang Bo wants something for himself, he can naturally put on airs.

As for whether he will offend Wang Bo, haha, he has already been offended.

Cao Xu remembered that the old guy threatened him, and believed that the old guy also kept in mind that he asked Dian Wei to fight with him.

"Then play music, then dance."

Cao Xu said while drinking the wine provided by Shen Meier.

“This wine doesn’t taste good.

"The slave family understands."

Hearing Cao Xu say that the taste of the wine was not good, Shen Meier raised her wine glass, drank the wine, and then served the wine with her fragrant lips.

"Can I have wine this time?"

"Yes, this wine tastes good, sweet and delicious."

Cao Xu nodded with satisfaction.

In the hall of Prince Wei's Mansion, Wang Bo was waiting for a full hour. His complexion became darker and darker as time went by.

"Oh, I'm sorry. The king is busy with important matters. The Prime Minister won't blame me."

Cao Xu looked apologetic.

Wang Bo glanced at the rouge mark on Cao Xu's face, and his complexion turned darker.

It is said that Cao Xu is lustful, and it is true.

Not only is he greedy for money, but he is also lustful. Don’t you know that lust is like a bone scraper? Although he is capable, the blogger feels that Cao Xu is nothing to fear based on his two weaknesses: greed for money and lust.

"His Royal Highness the King of Wei was joking, so naturally I won't blame His Highness."

Wang Bo said calmly.

If Cao Xu hadn't seen Wang Bo's dark face when he came over, he might have thought that this old guy was very well-educated.

"What's the purpose of Prime Minister's visit?"

"King Wei must have heard the rumors outside."

"`~Which one are you talking about? Is it because Emperor Qian still has three months to live, or is it because Zhou Shilin poisoned Emperor Qian."

Cao Xu picked up the tea on the table and took a sip.

"Of course it's the Emperor's business. After all, only the Emperor's affairs can involve us."

"The Emperor Qian's lifespan is only three months. This news is not a rumor, it should be true."

Wang Bo went to confirm that many of the spies he placed in the palace had been pulled out, but not completely.

The informant in the palace sent him news that the imperial doctor's diagnosis was like this. Emperor Qian could only live for about three months at most. Now several imperial doctors have been executed.

"Then what?" Cao Xu asked pretending not to understand.

"His Royal Highness, King Wei, he has been appointed emperor not long ago. What do you think he will do in the coming days?"

Cao Xu asked cooperatively: "What will Emperor Qian do?"

Wang Bo took a deep look at Cao Xu. He didn't know whether Cao Xu really didn't know or pretended not to know.

"He will get rid of the thorn in his side before he dies, and he will clear the way for the next emperor."

"I see, Emperor Qian wants to get rid of the thorn in the Prime Minister's side. Cao Xu looked at Wang Bo with a smile.

"King Wei, the thorn in Emperor Qian's side is not only me, but also you."

Wang Bo looked into Cao Xu's eyes.

Cao Xu retorted: "How is it possible? I am loyal to Emperor Qian, and I, Cao Xu, am a loyal minister.

He, Cao Xu, is a loyal minister, absolutely loyal.

Wang Bo laughed angrily when he heard Cao Xu's words.

I felt unhappy after being left out by Cao Xu for a long time, but now Xu doesn't pretend to be a loyal minister in front of him.

"King Wei, I think our conversation is still open."

"You know in your heart whether you are a loyal minister, and you also know in your heart whether Emperor Qian will regard you as a thorn in his side."

Holding back the anger in his heart, Wang Bo spoke.

"Prime Minister, you should tell me why you came to me."

Cao Xu smiled and said nothing.

"Huh, don't say you can't guess why I came to you."

In his eyes, Cao Xu was greedy and lustful, but he was definitely not a fool.

Cao Xu spread his hands: "How would I know if you don't tell me."

Even if you know some things, you can't tell them first. Let Wang Bo bring them up so that he can take the initiative. (Hao Wang Hao)

"I want to join forces with you. If Qianhuang attacks any one of you and me, the other person will help, and you and I will form an alliance.

When Wang Bo saw that Cao Xu was still pretending to be stupid, he simply told the truth.

"Prime Minister, is this alliance reliable? I heard that allies like to backstab their own allies the most."

Cao Xu sneered.

Alliances are the most unreliable. One day, an ally may be stabbed in the back.

"Are you afraid that I will trick you?" Wang Bo frowned.

"Don't you believe in my credibility?"

Wang Bo was obviously dissatisfied.

"Prime Minister, please stop joking. What credibility do rebellious ministers and traitors have?"

Cao Xu's words were hard to hear. At least Wang Bo's face turned dark when he heard them.

Cao Xu was calling him a traitor and traitor.

The words were true, but I couldn't bear to say them.

But thinking of the importance of forming an alliance with Cao Xu, Wang Bo tolerated it for the time being.

"You and I are grasshoppers on the same rope. I will never trick you into rowing at this time."

This is Wang Bo's innermost thoughts. Even if he wants to trick Cao Xu, he will have to wait until Emperor Qian is dead.

Now he still hopes to join forces with Cao Xu, so that the emperor will not dare to break up because of fear.

"The Prime Minister is wrong. We are not grasshoppers on the same rope. Emperor Qian will deal with you specially, but will he deal with me specially?" Cao Xu asked Wang Bo.

Anyway, Wang Bo didn't know that Emperor Qian had the idea of ​​killing him, and he had already taken action.

Without waiting for Wang Bo to answer, Cao Xu continued: "In terms of threats, the prime minister is the greatest, and I am not worth mentioning at all."

"So, even if Emperor Qian wants to eliminate the thorn in his side, he will only attack you. I will be safe before you fall."

"Then what if I fall down? Will you be able to escape then?" Wang Bo said with a serious face.

Cao Xu smiled slightly and answered Wang Bo: "Prime Minister, I believe you have the ability to persist for three months until Emperor Qian dies.".
