Chapter 517: Thunder
Nangong Han looked at Nangong Ming's cold appearance, his eyes full of disgust.
It happens again!!
Why is it always like this!!
Nangong Ming always acts as if he is not competing or fighting, as if there are not many people and things in this world that he can take seriously.
However, every time he tried his best to get something, it would always be taken away easily by Nangong Ming.
Just like now, he had clearly worked hard to climb to the position of regent, but he drove Nangong Ming back to his fiefdom.
Even Nangong Ming's military power and eldest son were controlled in his hands.
Why is it still the ending? ?
Why is Nangong Ming always so pure and dazzling?
And he can only become a foil? ?
He is not convinced, he is not convinced! !
Nangong Han: "I am the regent appointed by the late emperor. You want to convict me based on just one file? Dream on!!"
Nangong Ming knew that Nangong Han would not admit it easily, so he waved his hand and said, “Bring it up.”
Everyone was stunned. What did they bring up?
Is there any more information that King Wei has not revealed?
Whatever, they have seen the world now.
No matter how shocking something happens, it won't shock them.
Let the storm come even harder.
Soon, two people were brought in from outside the hall by soldiers.
"Prince Regent, do you recognize these two men?"
Nangong Han widened his eyes. That was...
Didn't they die a long time ago?
How come you are in this place?
Others couldn't help but whisper to each other -
"I guess I'm seeing things. Why do I feel like that person is Doctor Xue?"
"You are not seeing things, that is indeed Doctor Xue. He seems to have lost some weight, but his appearance has not changed much."
"And that person over there seems to be Eunuch Li."
"If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have realized it. It really is the eunuch Li who served the late emperor."
"But weren't they killed by the Regent? Why are they still here?"
"There must be something we don't know about."
"Why rush? Just watch carefully."
"That's true."
Doctor Xue looked at Nangong Han and sneered, "Prince Regent, how are you?"
Eunuch Li, who was standing aside, also stared at Nangong Han but did not speak.
At the beginning, he was almost strangled by Nangong Han's men, although he escaped death and saved his life.
But my throat is damaged.
Seeing these two people who were supposed to be dead appear in the hall and the Shenwu Army was in Nangong Ming's hands, Nangong Han realized that his situation was hopeless.
However, there were some things he still wanted to clarify.
Nangong Han looked at Nangong Ming: "Did you save these two people?"
Nangong Ming was clearly not in the capital at the time, and he had no idea what was happening in the palace.
How could he have predicted the future and saved the lives of these two people?
Nangong Ming shook his head: "It's not me, it's the one my brother left behind."
During that last period of time, Nangong Xi seemed to have realized something, and he sent two secret decrees to his brother.
But Nangong Han, Eunuch Li and others only knew one of the ways, so only that one was intercepted by them.
At first, Nangong Ming really knew nothing until Nangong Xi's secret guards found him with a secret decree.
Only then did Nangong Ming realize that so many things had happened when he was not in the capital.
After returning to the capital, Nangong Ming did not choose to confront the enemy head-on.
Instead, he obtained the tiger talisman according to the contents of the secret decree and then lay dormant.
Nangong Han's pupils trembled, it was actually Nangong Xi! !
How many backup plans did he leave for Nangong Ming?
Nangong Han seemed to have thought of something and suddenly laughed: "You have had this plan for a long time, but you are just waiting for the right time, right? King Wei is attacking me now, I believe Daliang must have been involved."
He paused, and continued, "The surrounding countries have long been eyeing our country covetously. If we start an internal conflict at this time, wouldn't it give other countries an opportunity to take advantage of the situation?"
Seeing Nangong Han confusing right and wrong like this, Nangong Ming couldn't help but frown.
"Since you know that the surrounding countries are eyeing us covetously, why do you want to provoke Daliang for your own selfish reasons?"
Nangong Han snorted coldly: "Everything I do is for the State of Chen."
He couldn't find the tiger talisman, so he thought of creating chaos on the border. When that happened, he would find the Shenwu Army and ask them to fight for the country.
By then, we can find a way to bring the Shenwu Army under our command.
But even if he had selfish motives, what he did was to make the State of Chen better.
It was precisely because Daliang was rich and powerful that he was determined to make Chen surpass Daliang and become the most powerful country.
As for the Shanglin Bureau Commander Shen Huazheng, he had already investigated him in detail.
Chen Huazheng is proficient in farming and is a rare talent in the world.
If such talents could be utilized by the State of Chen, one day the State of Chen would surely surpass Daliang.
Besides, since he dared to attack Daliang, he had thought of all the possibilities and made full preparations.
All the evidence pointed to the Dongyi and their spies lurking in Daliang, but the State of Chen had completely distanced themselves from the matter.
Daliang could not do anything to the State of Chen.
Even if Daliang really wanted to settle the score, could it attack Dongyi and Chen at the same time?
If attacked from both sides, I'm afraid Daliang himself would be the first to collapse.
Who would have thought that Daliang would not pursue the matter anymore, but would try to make them quarrel among themselves.
It's really insidious and hateful.
What kind of demeanor do you think is that of a great country? You don't have any bearing at all.
Nangong Yixian was truly amazed at Nangong Han's shamelessness. It was clearly his fault, but he completely denied it.
Others couldn't help but roll their eyes in their hearts, it was all for the sake of the State of Chen.
The State of Chen was almost destroyed by you.
Nangong Ming no longer paid attention to Nangong Han. He glanced at everyone one by one and said, "I chose to come here today because I wanted to take advantage of your presence so that I could be a witness."
Witness? ?
Everyone was startled, so the melon has not been eaten yet? ?
How much information does King Wei have to reveal?
Nangong Han also looked at Nangong Ming, wanting to know what Nangong Ming wanted to do.
Of course he knew exactly what he had done.
Although there have been cases of favoritism and abuse of power, none of them were more serious than what the guard just listed.
Nangong Ming now has the Shenwu Army at his disposal, and he has no room for resistance at all.
Coupled with the testimonies of Doctor Xue and Eunuch Li, as well as the pressure from Daliang, no one in the court would stand on his side.
It would be unnecessary for Nangong Ming to reveal any more information at this moment.
If he were in Nangong Han’s shoes, he would definitely not waste time talking to Nangong Ming and would just take him down directly.
However, given Nangong Ming's character of doing everything in an open and aboveboard manner, he should take out the secret decree given to him by Nangong Xi.
Since Nangong Xi left the tiger talisman to Nangong Ming, he must have returned it to him.
Thinking of this possibility, Nangong Han couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
As expected of Nangong Ming, everything he does must be justified.
As Nangong Han expected, Nangong Ming took out an imperial edict and read it out in front of all the ministers.
This was a will and testament, which specifically asked King Wei Nangong Ming to assist the new emperor until he came of age, and then he could rule the country. Nangong Ming was also named the regent.
Nangong Han listened to the contents of the will with an expressionless face, as if he was watching a farce that had nothing to do with him.
After today, all his secrets were exposed to everyone.
His jealousy, his resentment, his unwillingness, his mediocrity, and his unbearableness.
Everything is exposed and there is no escape.
It's like hanging a quilt in the sun to dry, only to find out after you spread it out that it's moldy inside.
He suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Nangong Ming, his vision vaguely spanning several years.
So many years have passed, and everyone has slowly become the person they don't like, except Nangong Ming who has not changed.
Even if everyone has to become someone they don't like, Nangong Ming can still be himself.
Because Nangong Xi is behind him.
Nangong Xi really treasures his younger brother Nangong Ming.
Even though he was sick and bedridden, he still found ways to send the Shenwu Army to Nangong Ming.
Nangong Xi even issued two secret decrees because he was worried that there might be mistakes in the process.
Everyone said that Nangong Xi treated him well.
But in fact, for the favored child of heaven, Nangong Xi, only Nangong Ming is his younger brother.
And he is just an obedient dog.
The reason why he hated Nangong Ming so much was simply out of envy and jealousy.
I envy the brotherhood between Nangong Xi and Nangong Ming, but at the same time I am jealous of that friendship.
No one in this world has ever loved him like that.
No one had ever planned for him like that.
Even his biological mother.
Everyone thought that after Nangong Ming read out Nangong Xi's will, he would have someone arrest Nangong Han.
Unexpectedly, he took out another imperial edict and slowly unfolded it.
Everyone: ...
Is this another secret decree? ?
How many secret decrees did the late emperor issue?
Nangong Han's brows slightly furrowed. How many tricks did Nangong Xi have?
Nangong Ming took in everyone's expressions: "This is the secret decree that my father left for my brother."
As soon as these words were spoken, the hall suddenly exploded.
In addition to the late emperor's will, King Wei also had a secret decree from Emperor Shizong! !
Taking it out at this time is obviously aimed at the Regent.
But why did Emperor Sejong leave a secret decree related to the regent?
Everyone was quite confused, and a few old ministers who vaguely knew some of the inside story looked at each other, unable to figure out what was going on.
Nangong Han was also stunned. The secret decree that his father left for Nangong Xi?
Why did Nangong Ming take it out at this time?
This time, Nangong Ming did not read the secret decree directly, but took the secret decree to several old ministers who were familiar with Emperor Sejong's handwriting.
"Excuse me, my lords. Is this edict written with my father's handwriting and jade seal?"
Several veteran officials carefully examined every word on the imperial edict, leaving no corner untouched.
Some sharp-eyed people noticed that the old ministers all had strange expressions on their faces when they were reading the secret decree.
But until the end, they didn't say anything, just nodded.
"That's right."
Nangong Ming also nodded, took the secret decree, and began to read the contents of the decree.
At this time, everyone finally understood why those old ministers looked strange, and also understood why Nangong Ming asked them to work together to identify the handwriting and jade seal of the secret edict.
They were once again immersed in shock, and were struck by the deafening thunder, leaving them burnt on the outside and tender on the inside.
