The Imperial Study

The warm pavilion in the room, covered with bright yellow heavy curtains, said to be a study, in fact, is a place for instructions and documents, the ground is paved with blue bricks, and there is heating below. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Outside is the corridor of the cloister, and there are palace maids and eunuchs standing all over the place, and occasionally they have changed their soft shoes, and their steps are light and silent.

There were four eunuchs standing left and right in the warm pavilion, all of them holding the dust in their hands and not squinting, the emperor was sitting behind the table, there was a medicine bowl in front of him, and a eunuch was waiting.

"Ahem!" The emperor took a few sips, coughed a few more times, took a handkerchief and wiped the corner of his mouth: "Take this medicine down, I won't drink it." ”

"Your Majesty, you don't use medicine, how is this good?" the eunuch advised.

"Hey, let's take it down, this medicine really heals well, I've been cured a long time ago. The emperor sighed and watched as the eunuch took the medicine out.

"The prince has arrived. The little eunuch at the door shouted.

The prince followed Liang Yuan and entered together, stepped forward to salute, and the emperor ordered: "Give the prince a seat, give the prime minister a seat!"

The prince sat on a low chair with cushions on it, while Liang Yuanzhi sat on the porcelain pier.

Liang Yuanzhi sat down for a while, and then leaned up again: "Your Majesty, I led Imperial Physician Chen to visit the prince, the prince was only a little frightened this time, and when he heard that His Majesty cared for him, he insisted on entering the palace to ask His Majesty for peace, and also asked His Majesty to surrender his guilt." ”

"It is a matter of course for the son to see his father, and the prince wants to see him, and his legs are long on his body, can you stop him?" the emperor was also amused, but coughed twice.

"Father, has the wind and cold gotten better these days?" the prince got up and asked, the emperor listened to the prince's greetings, revealing a trace of kindness: "Shang Ke, it's already better." ”

"The prince met an assassin on Tianxun Street yesterday, but he was frightened, you tell me about yesterday's situation. The Emperor digressed and asked.

The crown prince listened to the emperor ask about the assassination, remembered yesterday's incident, and shivered all over his body, as if he still had some fear, and his face was a little pale.

Looking at the prince's appearance, the emperor's face couldn't help but sink, and the prince quickly cleaned up his mood and said: "Yesterday, I saluted with the people, and when I walked to the heavenly street, there was a sudden explosion of fireworks, which exploded against the crowd and disturbed the people. ”

"The guards actually handled it properly, intercept it at the moment, and be quiet. ”

Immediately after that, the dragon's dragon head smashed down, breaking the array, and the assassin rushed out of the dragon's body to assassinate him. ”

Hearing this, the emperor leaned back a little and leaned back on the chair, as if thinking about the scene at that time, Liang Yuanzhi was also listening quietly on one side, as if he was facing what he heard yesterday.

"Chen Hu, Li Anjun, and Lu Sheng, the three generals were like prophets, and led dozens of personal soldiers to say that they wanted to support, but Chen Hu shouted to protect his sons, but he suddenly led his own soldiers to attack the guards, and the guards dissuaded them, and they were attacked and killed by Chen Hu. ”

"Erchen was frightened, but the guards were brave, and Jing ordered Yin to reinforce in time, so he was not injured, and there was no major problem, and he went back and used the Ningshen Soup, so there was no major problem, and the father did not have to worry. In front of the emperor, the crown prince talked about these things in detail.

Listening to the prince's description of the matter, it was clearly organized, although he was frightened, he had not lost his mind, and it was not in the same way as yesterday's report, and there was no false decoration, Liang Yuanzhi said: "Your Majesty, Chen Hu attacked the prince in front of everyone, it is really mad. ”

Hearing Liang Yuanzhi say this, the emperor smiled dumbly: "Prime Minister, show the note to the prince!"

He asked the prince again: "Do you think it was written by King Lu, and if so, what should be done?"

Liang Yuanzhi agreed, carefully took the note, and handed it to the prince with both hands, the prince got up and took the note, carefully identified it, first startled, and then his face turned red, as if he was angry.

Liang Yuanzhi observed the prince's expression, the emperor also looked at it, and the prince threw it away angrily: "This is a bunch of nonsense, a plan to divide the world." ”

Hearing this, the emperor was stunned for a moment, and the prince picked up the note again and apologized: "I saw such heartbroken and crazy words just now, I can't help myself, and I hope that my father will forgive me." ”

When the emperor heard this, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a deep voice: "Prince, you can tell me what you think." ”

"Erchen was thinking, back then, when the wolf smoke rushed to the sky, my father lifted a three-foot sword to level the world, and suffered a lot before I won the world. ”

"There are tens of millions of people in this world, and my brother is only three adults. ”

"I and King Lu are brothers, and we usually love each other, how could it be that King Lu sent someone to assassinate his sons, this is definitely a villain who stirs up right and wrong, secretly frames, and wants to damage our society. ”

"Not only can you not take it seriously, but you must also cut through the mess quickly, and quickly calm down this matter before it ferments, so that the villain has nowhere to find a gap, and he is not to blame, and his blame is self-defeating. ”

The emperor looked at the prince in a daze, and suddenly remembered that the prince was immature when he was born, and in a blink of an eye, he grew up, and his eyes were much softer, and he was no longer harsh.

Liang Yuanzhi was also stunned when he heard this, and said: "What the prince said is very grandiose, the emperor has leveled the world, in the past ten years, the world has returned to the heart, the court and the field are served, seeing that the prosperous era is coming, as long as there is no self-chaos, there is no room for villains to be corrupted - the minister seconded the proposal!"

This is said loudly, the prince said this, he has the bearing of being an eldest brother, the father is kind and filial to the son, and the brother is friends and brothers, which is really a great luck for Xu.

The emperor sat on the dragon chair and nodded.

The prince's tone changed: "It's just that this matter can't be blindly tolerated, the three generals brazenly sent troops to surround and kill, and for the country, it is a great rebellion, and for private purposes, the hidden note is framed, this is to frame our brotherhood, the depth of the scheming is shocking, these three people must not stay." ”

There was anger in the prince's tone, and his face turned red when he said this.

Looking at the appearance of the crown prince in front of him, the emperor suddenly laughed, this eldest son finally has a look.

The prime minister nodded slightly, saw the emperor's smile, and saw that the prince was continuing to say: "Erchen thinks that this kind of matter is not suitable for announcement, and it is better to delay it quickly, so that the government and the opposition should not be turbulent, so as to preserve the overall situation." ”

"These three generals will be dealt with quickly, and the rest of the people should not be pursued too much, let alone ask the king of guilt!"

"If there are rumors among the people, they must also be dealt with categorically. ”

"The words of the son-in-law are finished-please ask my father to decide!"

The emperor got up, pondered for a moment, and said: "I have made up my mind, immediately give death to the three generals, Chen Hu is all over the house, and men over ten years old will be executed." ”

smiled at the prince again: "You love your brother, I know, but King Lu's misbehavior is negative, and I can't help but wipe it, I have been demoted to King Lujun, and I have been thinking about it for three months behind closed doors, but there is no official will, and now I have made up my mind!"

Seeing that the prince still had something to say, he waved his hand: "Just follow this decree, there is no need to judge, just deal with it directly!"

He said softly: "I'm tired, the prince is also frightened and hard, go down and rest!"

King Lu's Mansion

King Lu sat in the hall, and the maids and eunuchs all stood quietly, not daring to hum, but by chance, they all saw each other with horror in their eyes.

The emperor's army besieged the mansion, and there was some news in the palace, saying that King Lu's assassination of the prince had been revealed.

This is a heinous crime.

There was some snow in the sky, hitting the dead trees in the garden, and the people in King Lu's mansion were panicking.

Outside King Lu's mansion, there were many armor soldiers, wearing big cotton jackets inside, wearing cold iron armor on their bodies, and wearing robes outside, with an indescribable awe.

King Lu was writing, flying dragons and snakes, and his demeanor was quite quiet.

"Lord, the matter has been investigated clearly, the prince was attacked last night, and we scattered the chess pieces without any return, so that today we are still in the dark. Father-in-law Liao said on the side.

"Now the pro-army is besieging the mansion, but the slaves are not forbidden to go out, the people in the mansion are uneasy, there have been a few thieves who have stolen gold and silver and escaped and have been caught, and some Qing guests are also going to leave the mansion under the pretext of the prince - prince, how to deal with it?"

King Lu didn't speak, practiced calligraphy with peace of mind, stopped writing for a long time, held the blue and white porcelain teacup on one side, took a sip of tea, and said: "Tell me to go down, the people in the house, no matter who dares to disturb the hearts of the army in the house, they will all be killed with a cane, and these few who escape will be killed with a cane immediately." ”

"As for those Qingkes!" King Lu showed a cruel smile: "If you want to go, let them go, just write down the list." ”

"Yes, Your Highness. Father-in-law Liao turned around and went out.

"Father-in-law spares his life, father-in-law spares his life. Several people's voices begging for mercy suddenly came from the criminal room in King Lu's mansion.

"The traitor survives and dies. Father-in-law Liao said, and a few screams were heard a little later, but there was no sound, and several eunuchs dragged several bloody corpses wrapped in white cloth out of the criminal room.

At this time, the guard in front of the door hurriedly entered, with some panic: "Your Highness, there is a decree in the Holy Order." ”

"Set the offering table and welcome the angels. King Lu was generous, calm and calm, and led everyone to greet him, only to see a person holding the holy decree in both hands to the south of the incense case, and saw King Lu prostrate himself: "Erchen respectfully invites Sheng'an!"

"Holy Bow An!" Qin Chazhan read the holy decree: "The system said: King Lu misbehaved, had negative intentions, cut the lord to the king of the county, and led it with the original name, and thought about it behind closed doors for three months, Qin this!"

Although he had been prepared, but after this holy decree was hit, King Lu's eyes were still black for a while, and he fell to the ground: "Erchen, thank you...... Shane ......"

The father-in-law was accustomed to seeing that King Lu was confident, majestic, and not fake to the ministers, but he didn't expect the emperor to be unkind to his son, and when he made a decree, King Lu had to tremble and have no color, and he couldn't help but be in awe of the emperor's heavenly prestige in his heart, sighed, and saw that King Lu had received the edict, grabbed a step, bowed down to King Lu, and said: "The slave is to do things according to orders, and he can't help himself, Wang Ye Haihan!"

"Give this father-in-law fifty taels of silver. King Lu froze, his face was pale, he said with a fine sweat, he also felt annoyed, when he came out, he still wanted to maintain his demeanor and have the demeanor of a king, but the real holy decree was beaten, and he immediately found that he was not as hard as he imagined.

The Holy Decree only cut off the prince this time, and still retained the prince of the county, what if next time it was cut to civilian imprisonment, or even death?

The closer you get to the imperial power, the more you know the horror of the imperial power, there are thousands of people in this Lu Wangfu, hundreds of black-clothed guards, how many people dare to resist the decree for themselves?

Thinking of this, King Lu couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
