Ninety-six. Courtiers
There were no idle people outside the palace of the three princes of the northern capital, and there was a sound of rustling inside, Zhu Chennan thought about it at the door for a long time, and then decided to eavesdrop on one or two.
He asked Shen Sanshi to secretly watch the three princes for a few days, Shen Sanshi is the first brocade guard in the northern capital, the emperor can trust it, and he naturally can trust it.
It took time to get the news that someone had entered the northern capital, and it was a realm.
Yan An couldn't help flying, but if he dared to trespass, he would be detected, but this one did not alarm anything, when there was an imperial order, but the first emperor of the northern capital had not been out of the palace for a long time, where did the imperial order come from?
Zhu Chennan is a civil official, and his strength is really not enough, but fortunately, his position is high, and Shen Sanshi is still in the palace, so it is not good to eavesdrop on the prince's affairs.
"How?" Someone inside asked, Zhu Chennan didn't recognize this voice, but he didn't put down the sound insulation, which was very strange.
"Under the soundproofing?" This time it was Su Ruoqi's voice.
"Of course, what about the Imperial Connection?" said the man.
"It's all in the plan, the jade seal is also there, you can ascend the throne on the same day, and the last words of the first emperor have also been intercepted, please rest assured. ”
Su Ruoqi breathed a sigh of relief, the prince's focus would not be on cultivation, and of course his strength would not be detected.
"But you can endure the humiliation and steal life for more than 20 years, just for the throne of the Northern Capital, who knows if you have the intention of opposing my Yi country?"
Zhu Chennan's heart tightened, and he hurriedly walked out.
"As long as the palace ascends the throne, it should be attached to the Dayi Kingdom, and there will be no dissent, but what the envoy said will not break his promise to protect the imperial line of my northern capital from war. Su Ruoqi said urgently, there was a kowtow, which can be described as shameless and unbearable.
"That's natural, but now is a good time for His Highness to show his loyalty. The envoy chuckled and paused, "I don't know why, the soundproof barrier has not been laid, and it just so happens that everyone from the outside world has heard about it, I don't know what His Highness thinks?"
"Don't worry, messenger, but if you don't have enough strength, please..."
Su Ruoqi sighed in his heart, and secretly scolded this bastard of the Yi Kingdom, the source qi of the Realm can't control it, and he can't beat the soundproof barrier? How is this possible?
"Hey, Your Highness, the people of the Northern Capital, of course, the Northern Capital itself took action. The messenger followed Su Ruoqi out, hugged his arms and smiled.
"You!" Su Ruoqi glared, he couldn't have a seizure, and when he looked out, his father-in-law hadn't stepped out of the courtyard yet, and his back was cold.
Zhu Chennan, he knows, the old eunuch. He has been working hard with the first emperor for decades, and he is a minister with a very important position in the palace, can the envoy of the Yi State not know?
Su Ruoqi clenched his fists, the matter has come to this point, and it is useless to say more.
Zhu Chennan didn't think about escaping at all, it was impossible, the spiritual sense of the realm should have noticed him a long time ago, that is to say, the first step since he stepped in, and even after listening to the news, it was the act of the envoy of this Yi country, and the purpose was to kill him.
He sighed, but did not speak, staring at Su Ruoqi in a daze.
Someone suddenly landed in the air, holding an embroidered spring knife tightly in his hand, and the cold light was shining. Shen Sanshi. Zhu Chennan also knew that he had come at the wrong time.
"Who trespassed into the Northern Capital?" Shen Sanshi said coldly, and the envoy of the Yi Kingdom only hugged his arms, and his face seemed to be smiling.
"Your Highness, what should we do next?" the messenger did not answer, but sat down on the ground.
"Shen Sanshi. Su Ruoqi's face turned two points pale, "Behead him." ”
He was referring to Zhu Chennan.
"What does Your Highness mean?" Although Shen Sanshi had doubts, he clenched his embroidered spring knife and stared straight at Su Ruoqi, the prince's rebellion is a kind of end, just like Su Wuchang, asking and beheading.
"Jinyi Weiwei obeys the order of the jade seal, yes or no?" Su Ruoqi asked with a straight face.
"Naturally. Shen Sanshi nodded.
Su Ruoqi's palm was spread out, and on it was a golden silk wrapped in a square thing, and the upper and northern crests jumped out.
"If there is no emperor in the northern capital, and there is no succession, if the imperial vein that holds the jade seal is the emperor, yes or no?" Su Ruoqi asked again, his face calming down.
"Indeed... So. Shen Sanshi didn't answer, but Zhu Chennan snorted.
"Slash!" Su Ruoqi drank coldly, of course there is no need to pretend to be stupid anymore, what about being a vassal country?
Shen Sanshi turned his head to look at Zhu Chennan, both of them had been the first emperor for several years, and they had already guessed about the matter of farewell in the future, but they didn't expect it to be like this. He glanced at the envoy of the Yi Kingdom again, this is really what he wants to behead, but can it?
The Jinyi Guard was born for the imperial lineage, and the jade seal can command the Jinyi Guard and control it at the same time. Even if he is in the realm, it can be said that as long as Su Ruoqi wants to, there is no problem in cultivating him back.
Zhu Chennan has a bit of integrity, this old man is not young, and he is almost half of his body in the ground among ordinary people. But at this moment, his slightly cloudy eyes were shining, and it seemed that he was young again.
He bowed to the court of the northern capital: "My heart and my deeds are as clear as a mirror, everything I do is the national capital, and I will never regret my broken bones!"
He shouted, and the stairs of the hall could not be seen at a glance, "Your Majesty, your country, the old slave will accompany you back in the next life!"
Yan An began to snow again, covering his gray sideburns.
"Let's do it! Zhu Chennan said loudly and closed his eyes, "Then don't forget the python robe you are wearing." ”
"Shen Sanshi, why are you still stunned?" Su Ruoqi's words no longer allowed any emotion, "The order of the jade seal, that is, the emperor's order, the order of the first emperor, or the order of the current emperor, how can you violate it?!"
"Respect the jade seal. Shen Sanshi's hand holding the knife was covered with green tendons, but his voice was very calm.
Shen Sanshi did the simplest, most ordinary action he had ever done in his life, swinging a knife.
The hot, crimson liquid sprayed on the steps outside the temple, stinging the eyes, and the head of "Click-Click" rolled all the way to the corner, and finally stopped.
He swung his knife again, shaking off the blood.
"Shen Sanshi, I order you not to tell anyone about today's events. Su Ruoqi said in a low voice, the light in his hand shone.
"Respect the jade seal. Shen Sanshi bowed.
"Hahaha! Hahaha! Interesting, interesting!" The envoy of the Yi Kingdom stood up, laughing and applauding at the same time, "Whether it is the new emperor of the northern capital, the head of the Jinyi guard, or the old courtier, they are all very interesting!"
Facing Shen Sanshi, whose face was pale, the envoy did not panic, and slowly crushed the enchantment, "The northern capital is indeed loyal, and this seat will inform the emperor to leave for the time being." "As soon as his figure flashed, he flew up, and this northern capital really came and left as he wanted.
"Go down too, and make two more days of preparations, and ascend the throne at once. Su Ruoqi muttered, raising his eyes and no longer seeing Shen Sanshi's figure.
