Chapter 125 Assassination of the Emperor
Ministers:...
Some people were a little jealous, thinking that His Majesty was too kind to the duck. This was a life-and-death crisis.
He actually returned and took it with him.
What should I do? I feel like humans are not as good as ducks.
Xu Zhong cried again, this time because he was moved.
"Your Majesty is kind and generous, and Erya is loyal and brave. With such a friendship, historian, can this be recorded in the history books?"
Historian: ...
Lord Xu, does His Majesty really want to have such a friendship with a duck in the history books?
Would you like to calm down first?

After Ye Shengxin and the other three escaped from the execution ground, due to the memories that Ye Shengxin could recall, she and Emperor Jingming both thought that Jianghe City might help her remember more of the past, so they planned to go there.
However, before leaving, Emperor Jingming stood on a high mountain outside the city and looked in the direction of the Huang Mansion.
He was somewhat hesitant as to whether or not to bring Huang Youwei along as a witness, so that it would be easier for him to bring down the Huang family in the future.
Thinking about speaking out, Ye Xingxin nodded: "We have already offended the Huang Dynasty with the commotion at the execution ground. If we don't want to be retaliated by the Huang family, the largest family in the Zhou Dynasty, we really can't let the Huang family stay."
Ministers: ...It’s ok that the amnesiac emperor is bold, but is Ye Shengxin also so fierce?
You must know that if the Huang family was easy to deal with, Your Majesty would not have tolerated their existence for so many years.
Considering that Ye Xingxin and His Majesty are now civilians, no, they are “fugitives”.
Trying to bring down the Huang family is like an ant trying to shake a tree.
Master Tongshan looked at the ministers and smiled silently.
Really, he didn't believe it.
Xu Zhong, who was standing next to him, wiped away his tears and said, "Your Majesty's plan is not impossible. Perhaps the retribution of the Huang family will be Lord Ye."
His Majesty has been wanting to deal with the Huang family for a long time. Before he lost his memory, everyone knew it, but they kept silent.
Now that His Majesty has lost his memory and said this in the capacity of a "fugitive," there is nothing to hide in the court, either openly or secretly.
What's more, Ye Shengxin's bad words had already given the result, the downfall of the Huang family was only a matter of time.
After all, Zhang Liang was a court official, so he had some idea of the size of the Huang family.
Seeing that both of them were determined to eradicate the Huang family, he was afraid that Ye Xingxin and His Majesty would act rashly, so he hurriedly reminded them:
"The Huang family is huge, and the industries and lands they hold are spread across several neighboring countries. Unless you have military power or someone in a high position is determined to take action against the Huang family, it is better to be cautious in eradicating the Huang family."
"Moreover, the Huang family has a good reputation in recent years, and it is not easy for people to find fault with them. Otherwise, they would not have been safe until now."
Ye Xingxin smacked his lips and said, "Did you catch me in the wrong place?"
She bared her teeth: "How is that possible? They will just cover it up."
"As long as we can find a mistake that the Huang family can't cover up, we can do whatever it takes to hurt the Huang family."
Zhang Liang had a bad feeling: "What are you going to do?"
Ye Xingxin smiled: "You said that we are going to assassinate the old emperor on the throne as members of the Huang family. Do you think the old emperor will be angry?"
"Will he be so angry that he wants to kill the Huang family?"
"Of course, the old emperor might know that this is false, but does he care?"
"He just needs an excuse to break the bones of the Huang family, even if he can't destroy them."
"So, we can completely use the old emperor's hand to eliminate hidden dangers for ourselves. As long as the old emperor can contain the Huang family, the Huang Dynasty will have no time to deal with us."
This plan was so bold and outrageous that Zhang Liang's heart was in his throat.
His eyes also subconsciously looked at Emperor Jingming.
Seeing that Emperor Jingming was really thinking about this possibility, his eyes suddenly went dark.
The ministers in the court, including the crown prince, also felt darkness in front of their eyes.
This, this, this... Ye Shengxin was worried. The ministers had been brewing complex emotions about her plan for a long time.
I really didn't know how to vent, and I kept holding it in until my face turned red and my neck became thick.
Finally, Chang Zunli said sadly:
"How could Ye Xingxin do this? She asked His Majesty to assassinate His Majesty and then framed the Huang family. Could she please stop using her little brain to harm His Majesty?"
The queen looked at her husband who had been deceived and crippled in the sky, and touched her forehead with a handkerchief.
Suddenly I hope that Your Majesty will not recover his memory so soon. It is really too bad.
While the ministers were feeling distressed by Ye Xingxin's unreliable plan, Emperor Jingming said with great satisfaction:
"This plan is very clever, and it needs to be used."
Ministers:...
"Boom." "Boom."
Two ministers with poor psychological tolerance were so angry that they fainted.
Upon seeing this, the prince felt guilty and helpless, so he summoned the imperial physician to treat the two ministers.
Zhang Liang, who was at the scene, also wanted to faint. He waved his hands and said, "No, this plan won't work. It's too risky."
"Nothing can be done."
Ye Xingxin looked at Zhang Liang's cowardly look and laughed out loud:
"Brother Zhang, don't underestimate my plan. This is a good plan for those who want revenge but can't."
"Think about it. If you hate your family so much but cannot do it yourself because of your reputation and filial piety, then you can just go and assassinate the old emperor on the throne."
"Of course, there is a high probability that you will not succeed, and you may not be able to meet the old emperor."
"But you just need to go around yelling and cursing the old emperor, and then find seven or eight people to pretend to assassinate him."
Ye Xingxin clapped his hands excitedly: "When the time comes and you face the soldiers who want to arrest you, just tell us your name, and the old emperor will make sure that your enemies are wiped out completely, and not even a chicken in your home will be spared."
Emperor Jingming's eyes sparkled: "Let the old emperor be the knife in your hand, this is a brilliant plan."
"The duck is really smart."
"Mr. Zhang, you must remember this carefully and never forget it."
Zhang Liang:......
Cui Luoshan: ...Is Dayu really a commoner? Why doesn't he have any respect for His Majesty?
Ministers:...
"Boom." "Boom."
Two more ministers were so stimulated by Emperor Jingming's praise that they fainted.
The prince was tired and waved his hand again to call the imperial physician.
Zhang Liang was stunned for a moment, and after holding onto the donkey's back with his arm and trying to stand up straight, he decisively changed the subject:
"Should we take Huang Youwei with us, since he has a broken leg and cannot walk well?"
Emperor Jingming collected his thoughts and said, "There is no rush to take revenge on the Huang family. We will come back and rob him after he recovers from his injuries."
Frightened by Ye Shengxin's words, Cui Luoshan, who had remained silent and stiff, picked up Erya who was pecking at the grass on the ground.
Xu Sheng said: "Then let's set off quickly."
-
The four men rode on donkeys and carried ducks, and on the evening of the third day they entered Jianghe City, which had barely recovered from the flood.
When the four of them were having dinner at the same table in the evening, Ye Shengxin inadvertently mentioned the old emperor again.
Zhang Liang felt pain in his ears, especially when His Majesty addressed him in this way. He was afraid that he would be questioned in the future, so he spoke up quickly:
"Your Majesty is in his prime, handsome, and not old at all. Big Duck, please stop calling him that."
Emperor Jingming looked at Zhang Liang's protection of the emperor and doubts arose in his heart again.
