Chapter four hundred and eighty second: deathbed strategy
Chapter 482: The lasting strategy
Deng Sheng quickly walked to the main hall with an anxious mood. As soon as he walked in, he saw Su Yun kneeling on His Highness with a sad face, with a white cloth tied to his head. Seeing Deng Sheng, Su Yun originally planned to salute, but Deng Sheng didn't care about this and asked directly to Su Yun: "Su Yun, how did your father leave? Wasn't I good when I went to see him yesterday? Why did he leave just by saying that?"
"Go back to the king, my father suddenly fainted at midnight last night. After seeing it, the doctor could no longer save him. In fact, when my father was bedridden a few days ago, the imperial doctor had already asserted that his father had not had much time. But the sudden improvement in the past few days the imperial doctor once said that this might be because my father had not yet finished his thoughts, and he was just looking back!" Su Yun knelt on the ground and said with a sad look on his face.
"King!" Deng Sheng suddenly heard Su Hong's death and couldn't stand steadily. If Gui Xiang beside him hadn't supported him in time, Deng Sheng would have fallen to the ground.
"So that's it, I think it's God who pleads with me, Deng Deng, but I didn't expect it to be a waste in the end!" Deng Sheng broke free from Gui Xiang's hand and murmured in his mouth. Deng Sheng, who came from later generations, naturally knew what it was like to verge in retrospect. How many people would suddenly be in good health in the period before their death because of some thoughts. When their thoughts were over, they would suddenly leave without warning. Deng Sheng recalled the last time he met Su Hong. Su Hong's last thought should be the great event for Deng's country to unify the world. It's right. Su Hong's lifelong efforts were devoted to Deng's country. It can be said that Su Hong's contribution to Deng's country is no worse than Deng Sheng, the Deng king.
"Su Yun, did your father say something before he left? That's right, your father suddenly fainted, and I'm afraid he can't say anything!" Deng Sheng asked Su Yun. He wanted to know if Su Hong had said anything before he died, but when he turned around, Su Hong passed away after suddenly fainting, and everyone fainted, what could he say?
Deng Sheng sat on the throne with Gui Xiang's support. At this time, Su Yun took out a letter from his arms, handed it on both hands, and said, "King, this was handed to me by my father before he fainted, and told me to me by hand after he left. He said this was the last thing he did for the Great Deng and the King, and asked me to take care of me in the future!" After that, he handed the letter to the eunuch beside me.
The eunuch handed the letter to Gui Xiang, and Gui Xiang handed it to Deng Sheng. Deng Sheng took the letter and did not open it as soon as possible. He knew that it must be what Su Hong wanted to say the last thing he wanted to say, but it was inconvenient to say, so he handed it to himself in the form of a letter, so he opened it only when he had to be alone.
Deng Sheng put the letter on his sleeve and said to Su Yun: "Su Yun, I know your father's affairs. The court will continue to be kindly later. You must go to the East Palace to report the funeral. You go down first!" Deng Hao is Su Hong's son-in-law. When his father-in-law dies, his family members must say something.
"Here! I'm leaving!" Su Yun said, then got up and walked out of Ganyang Palace. As soon as he arrived at the palace gate, he saw Cui Hao, Jiang Wan and Zhang Bin coming together. They had just heard of Su Hong's death. They had originally planned to go directly to the Su Mansion, but they thought that Su Yun should have come to the palace to report the demise. So they came together to see Su Yun, comfort him, and at the same time comfort Deng Sheng. As Deng Sheng's most trusted minister, they knew very well about the relationship between Deng Sheng and Su Hong. They were both kings and ministers, and friends. When Su Hong died, Deng Sheng must be very sad.
"I have met three uncles!" Su Yun said, politely to Cui Hao and others.
Cui Hao and others nodded, then patted Su Yun on the shoulder and said, "Nephew, I am so sad and reciprocating. Although we have occasional conflicts with Brother Su, we are also old friends for many years. Later, we will visit each other and sing a stick of incense to express our feelings!"
"My uncles are in love, and my nephew is very grateful. I guess I have something to ask for a visit to the king. I won't bother you anymore, let's take a step first!" Su Yun first thanked Cui Hao and others, then said goodbye and left. Su Yun was very clear about the friendship between Cui Hao and others and Su Hong. Similarly, Su Yun was also very clear about the conflict between them. These were all matches. Su Yun asked himself that he would not be their opponents, so he would not provoke them.
"Go!" Cui Hao and others also knew that Su Yun had a lot of things to deal with, so they nodded and asked Su Yun to leave.
Zhang Bin looked at Su Yun's back as he left, sighed and said, "Brother Su just left like this. I just don't know if this child can support such a huge Su Mansion!"
Zhang Bin's worries are not without reason. As one of the four giants in the court, Su Hong will definitely cause an uproar when he dies. At least the power of the court will be reshuffled, and the people of the Su system will also be eyeing him. If Su Yun does not have enough ability, his life will be sad.
"Hmph! Don't worry, Brother Zhang, if those people are too much, the king is still there, and we are still there. If we want to deal with the Su Mansion, it depends on whether we want to!" Jiang Wan snorted coldly. Although they had some political disagreements with Su Hong in the past, their private relationships were also very good. They would never see their old friend's descendants bullying them.
"I said, are you too worried? Who is Brother Su? How could he have no arrangements for the funeral? Don't worry, those villains who thought they had the opportunity would not be able to take advantage of them in the end!" Seeing Zhang Bin and Jiang Wan doing this, Cui Hao smiled and said.
When Zhang Bin and Jiang Wan heard this, they felt relieved. Yes, what is Su Hong? They are so thief-like. Even if they meet, they have to be careful. How could such a person have no arrangements for the funeral? It seems that they are too worried, so they smiled and stopped talking.
Several people walked into Qianyang Palace and saw Deng Sheng who was in a daze. Cui Hao stepped forward and said, "The King, please feel sorry for me. Shangshu Su doesn't want to see the king like this."
"You are here! Su Qing suddenly passed away, I lost my arms, and Deng lost his good ministers. How can I not be sad?" Deng Sheng said with his eyes closed.
"Shangshu Su has been serving the country and the people all his life. Da Deng has made great contributions today. It is reasonable for the king to be sad. Not to mention the king, even the ministers are extremely sad. However, this person has passed away, and Su Shangshu doesn't want to see us like us. Su Shangshu has been committed to the unification of the world all his life. I think the king should regain his mood, which is worthy of the efforts of Su Shangshu throughout his life." Jiang Wan also persuaded.
"Yes, you are right. I really shouldn't have done this. By the way, Su Qing devoted his life to Deng. Now that he has passed away, the court should be kind and pass on the orders. Three days off. When Su Qing's funeral is held, all the civil and military officials and members of the royal family will go to see him off in person. As Su Qing's son-in-law, the crown prince should have mourned Su Qing, but the crown prince is the crown prince, so it is not appropriate to do so. Instead, the fourth prince mourned on behalf of his brother and the prince's grandson will be sent to the funeral!" Deng Sheng said.
"Here!" several people responded.
After a pause, Deng Sheng said again: "In addition, he issued an order to posthumously confer Su Qing as Duke of Jing and buried Wang Ling with me. After a hundred years, he would follow me. His son Su Yun was granted the title of Marquis of Jingling to demonstrate Su Qing's achievements!"
"Here!" Is Deng Sheng's reward heavy? In the eyes of Cui Hao and others, it is not worthy at all. With Su Hong's achievements, it is not worthy at all. Moreover, the Duke of Jing that Deng Sheng posthumously conferred a title is also very meaningful. Everyone knows that Su Hong's first strategy to join Deng's country was to destroy Jing. Now he posthumously conferred Su Hong as Duke of Jing can be regarded as commending Su Hong's achievements back then. The only more important thing is to be awarded the Marquis of Su Yun. After all, there are not many marquis of Deng's country now, except for Deng Sheng's princes, but Cui Hao and others will not say anything about this. After all, Su Yun himself has made contributions, and with Su Hong's protection, it is reasonable to add a Marquis.
After Cui Hao and his friends left, Deng Sheng came to the side hall alone, silently took out the letter Su Hong left for him, opened it and saw that it was written inside.
"The king is above. Su Hong kowtowed a hundred times. I am a commoner. Fortunately, I am valued by the king and was able to hold a high position. I am very grateful. Since the first year of King Deng's success, I have followed the king for twenty-six years. I have been deeply kind to the king. My ambitions have been able to be displayed. Unfortunately, I can't wait for the day when the king ruled the world. At the time of parting, I finally offered a plan for the king. Weak Qin. The Qin general Meng Zhan was seriously ill, and I am afraid that he would soon be born. Bai Qi was arrogant and Qin was dissatisfied with him. However, it was only because Meng Zhan had been dealing with him for many years. Once Meng Zhan passed away, the conflict between Bai Qi and Qin King would be inspiring. As long as the king took advantage of the conflict between Bai Qi and Qin King to provoke, it is very likely that he would eliminate a great enemy for my Great Deng. Without Bai Qi, Qin would never be my Great Deng's opponent!"
Deng Sheng saw this, and his heart was stirred. He did not expect that Su Hong was thinking about Deng at the last moment of his life. Not only did he point out how to weaken Qin, but he also explained the specific implementation in the future. This moved Deng Sheng very much, but Su Hong's words later made Deng Sheng laugh and cry. This was what Su Hong wrote.
"King, I only have one daughter in my life, and only one son-in-law. The prince is still young. If there is anything wrong in the future, please forgive me. If one day the king feels that the prince is not worthy of the position of the Eastern Palace, I will also ask the king to consider the father-son relationship and the ministers, and finally ask the king to take care of his family on behalf of me. If there is a next life, I will be the minister of the king!"
