: Pulling the snake out of the hole

Deng Sheng was silent for a moment, thinking that Cui Hao and others were very reasonable. If this matter was not conspired by Deng Ju and Fang Hanchen, then so many coincidences would not be explained. So he said, "Since that's the case, then you will keep it to the death of Fang Hanchen and Deng Ju to death, but remember not to alarm the enemy. In addition, the news of my awakening must be kept confidential for the time being. Not only that, there must be some rumor to spread, which means that my injury has worsened and the imperial physicians are helpless."

"Is the king planning to lure the snake out of the hole?" Everyone suddenly realized and soon understood the reason why Deng Sheng did this.

Deng Sheng nodded and said, "Yes, even if we have a partner of suspicion now, there is no evidence. If we rashly move a general and a royal family, it is probably impossible to hide everyone's words. Besides, it is not yet finalized whether this matter was conspired by Fang Hanchen and the Marquis of Nanxiang. It is still too early to start."

"The king is wise!" said everyone.

After everyone left, Ganyang Palace returned to its former peace, and Empress Dowager Cui continued to supervise the country.

"Marty, news came out of the palace that the man's injury suddenly worsened and the imperial physicians were helpless. I'm afraid it would be only a few days." Fang Hanchen also had eyes and ears in the palace. He soon learned the news that Deng Sheng deliberately released it, so he hurried to tell Deng Ju.

"What you said is true? He is really out of reach!" Deng Ju said in surprise.

Fang Hanchen nodded and said, "It should be true at this time. The person who sent the message to me was the spy I had installed in the palace many years ago. There would be no mistakes. It is said that this news was still from Ganyang Palace. Marquis, what should we do next?"

"That's great. Since the news is correct, what General Fang has to do next is to slowly transfer the Yulin Army into the palace. As soon as the news of the man's death came out, he would act immediately. At the same time, he sent someone to this marquis to keep an eye on Qingtian Jun Mansion, Ziyang Jun Mansion and Shanyin Jun Mansion to death. If there is any abnormal movement, he immediately reported it to this marquis." Deng Ju rubbed his fists and feet, and after so many years, he finally realized that the world was his own.

"Here!"

After Fang Hanchen left, Deng Ju came to a side hall alone. When he pushed the door open, he saw a spiritual position on the table with the words "The Spiritual Position of Queen Fang's Mother Fang". This was the spiritual position of Deng Ju's mother, the original wife of King Wuzhuang of Deng Guo.

Queen Fang was sent to the cold palace and suffered all the torture. In the end, she died in hatred. Before her death, she told Deng Ju that she would save her life and wait for the opportunity. So Deng Ju turned to Mrs. Cui, the most unbacked lady in the harem, who was now the Queen Mother Cui, who fully supported Deng Sheng's succession. He originally thought that Deng Sheng was young and would definitely use his brother after ascending the throne. After taking over the power of Deng State in the future, she would force Deng Sheng to abdicate. Who knew that after Deng Sheng ascended the throne, many capable people emerged. Deng Sheng was still a very smart person. He could not squeeze into Deng Sheng's core circle at all. In this way, he had no chance and had to keep a low profile and continue to wait for the opportunity.

Until a few months ago, when he learned that Deng Sheng was planning to summon his soldiers to hunt in the suburbs, he knew that the opportunity had come, and Deng Ju was also very clear that Deng Sheng was young and energetic, and it was unlikely that he would die early. He could only deal with Deng Sheng through assassination. However, Deng Sheng had been hiding in the palace for three years since he ascended the throne, and there was no chance at all. Moreover, Deng Sheng also held a grand wedding at the beginning of the year. Once Deng Sheng gave birth to his offspring, even if Deng Sheng really died, that position had nothing to do with him. He had to deal with him before Deng Sheng gave birth to his offspring.

Deng Sheng summoned the soldiers in the army to hunt, so Deng Ju saw the opportunity, so he found Fang Hanchen and conspired with him, intending to assassinate Deng Sheng during the hunt. Things went smoothly. Deng Sheng was seriously injured, but after all, he was not dead yet, so he still dared not act rashly, so he had to continue waiting. Now he finally came, Deng Sheng was about to lose his way. As long as Fang Hanchen controls the palace and Wancheng, the situation is determined.

After Deng Ju took a stick of incense, he murmured: "Mother Queen, Juer will soon be the king. After Juer takes the position, Juer who bullied us mother and son back then will have to pay the price. Mother Queen, you have a spirit in heaven, so you must bless Juer."

Things continued to ferment, and civil and military officials had also made suggestions to Empress Dowager Cui many times, saying that he wanted to see Deng Sheng, but they were all rejected by Empress Dowager Cui, which made the ministers even more doubt whether Deng Sheng was still alive.

Three days later, Chang Yuchun, Yang Yanzhao, Yue Fei and others led their troops outside Wancheng, but Deng Sheng ordered them to be stationed outside Wancheng. Without orders, they were not allowed to enter the city, and it was even more impossible for people to know that they were back. Although Chang Yuchun and others were puzzled, they still abide by Deng Sheng's order and stationed outside Wancheng.

On the night after Yue Fei and others arrived, Fang Hanchen hurriedly came to see Deng Ju.

"Mr. Marquis, news came from the palace that the man was not good, and someone saw an eunuch in the palace heading to Qingtianjun's mansion. He must have wanted to pick Qingtianjun into the palace." Fang Hanchen told Deng Ju about what happened tonight.

After hearing this, Deng Ju stood up quickly and said with a blank expression: "I didn't expect that the woman would send someone to invite Qingtianjun, General Fang, to immediately send someone to keep an eye on the palace and Qingtianjun's mansion, and to mobilize the Yulin army to enter the palace with this marquis." Originally, Deng Ju thought that if Deng Sheng was not good, Empress Dowager Cui would send someone to invite him, but he didn't expect that Empress Dowager Cui would send someone to invite Qingtianjun Deng Guo, which disrupted his plan. In desperation, Deng Ju had to use force to control the palace first and force Empress Dowager Cui to make himself king.

In fact, all of this was Deng Sheng's plan. He knew that if he summoned Deng Ju into the palace, he would not be able to obtain strong evidence to accuse Deng Ju. As early as a few days ago, there were many people of all kinds outside Qingtian Jun Mansion, Ziyang Jun Mansion and Shanyin Jun Mansion. They both intentionally or unintentionally turned their attention to the Three Jun Mansions, while Nanxiang Hou Mansion was very calm. This made Deng Sheng finally believe that all this was done by Deng Ju, so he invited Qingtian Jun into the palace to let Deng Ju raise his troops directly. In this way, even if he did not admit that he did the assassination, there was a reason to deal with him.

Late at night, Deng Guo, the king of Qingtian, was invited into the palace without knowing it, and came to Ganyang Palace to see Deng Sheng. Deng Guo was surprised to see Deng Sheng safe and sound.

Deng Sheng looked at Deng Guo and smiled and said, "Second brother, are you surprised to see that I have nothing to do?"

Deng Guo was startled and knelt down to the ground, saying, "I pay homage to the king, I, Wang Wannian!"

Deng Sheng waved his hand and said with a smile: "Second brother, please get up quickly. I invite you tonight to invite you to see a good show."

"Good show? I wonder what the good show the king said?" Deng Guo was trembling, as if he was in the abyss. As Deng Sheng's former opponent, he knew very well, so since Deng Sheng ascended the throne, he had always been in silence and did not dare to show his head, for fear that Deng Sheng would attack him.

Deng Sheng smiled and said, "Second brother, don't worry, first drink a glass of water and wine with me. The show will be staged soon. Come and give Qingtianjun a seat."
