Hearing his voice, Prime Minister Yuan was afraid that he would ruin his big business, so his hand tightened, and the third prince's face was bulging and he coughed violently.

Emperor Yan's face did not change, and he quietly observed his every move.

Prime Minister Yuan said: "Your Majesty, Weichen knows the weight of the three princes in your heart, if you want Weichen to let him go, you can only ask the emperor's subordinates to show mercy and let Weichen live." When Weichen leaves the palace, the three princes will return it to you safely. ”

Emperor Yan sneered: "Do you think I will listen to you?"

Weichen believes that the emperor will not abandon the lives of the three princes. He bet on the emperor's feelings for Concubine Su, and he has always seen the emperor's affection, and this time he only won and did not lose.

This old fox...... Emperor Yan lowered his eyes, his eyes darkened, and he dared to bargain with himself when he was dying.

Seeing that the third prince's face turned blue and he was about to lose it, Emperor Yan immediately relieved himself and ordered: "Come on, let the prime minister leave the palace." ”

Those elite soldiers retreated to the side and made way for Prime Minister Yuan. Prime Minister Yuan dragged the three princes out a few steps, and suddenly stopped to look around, panicking.

He glanced at Emperor Yan and felt a pound in his heart. The emperor is thoughtful, it is impossible to let him go so easily, there must be other conspiracy.

Emperor Yan saw through his thoughts at a glance and said: "Yuan Aiqing, don't worry, I can't chase after me, since I have promised you, I will not embarrass you." ”

Prime Minister Yuan heard this and continued to retreat. The third prince's painful expression tightened Su Zixu's heart, she couldn't bear it anymore, pushed away those guards and stepped forward.

When Emperor Yan saw her, his eyes moved, but he didn't stop it. Prime Minister Yuan stopped and smiled at Su Zixu: "Concubine Yue, you are here too." ”

Su Zixu didn't answer, taking advantage of the moment when he was distracted, with a flick of his fingers, a powerful internal force hit his hand, he subconsciously retracted his hand, half-squatting and screaming in pain. The body of the third prince then fell to the ground.

The military general next to him reacted sensitively, grabbed the third prince and pulled him into his arms. In the flash of light, Su Zixu was about to run forward, but Emperor Yan had already stood in front of the general, exhaled a palm to him, and returned to his place with the third prince in his arms.

Those elite soldiers reacted quickly, and without waiting for an order, they raised their swords and pressed them against Prime Minister Yuan's neck and held him.

Prime Minister Yuan struggled to resist, but to no avail. In a panic, he saw an oncoming figure in his peripheral eyes and said to him, "Lan'er, save me." ”

Ye Lan's figure paused, glanced at him without waves, strode forward, and replied: "Weichen is late to save the car, please forgive the emperor." ”

Seeing Ye Lan like this, Prime Minister Yuan Cheng's eyes widened, panicked, and said, "Lan'er, you ......"

Ye Lan turned his head sideways, glanced at him, and was silent. The elite soldiers pressed Prime Minister Yuan and his entourage, and the third prince was not breathing well and fainted in Emperor Yan's arms.

Su Zixu took his body and hurriedly took him back to the palace. At noon the next day, things calmed down.

Prime Minister Yuan was imprisoned for the crime of forcing the palace to rebel, and he was beheaded after the autumn. Prime Minister Yuan's youngest son and other adult men of the Yuan family were beheaded. Except for the old, weak, sick and disabled, the rest of the people were sent to the border and were enslaved forever and were not allowed to enter Beijing. The Yuan family, there is no day to turn over.

At noon the next day, Emperor Yan went to the prison to visit Prime Minister Yuan. Tiger fell Pingyang was bullied by dogs, he no longer had the majesty of the past, curled up in despair, sitting on a pile of hay in the prison, his hair was messy, as if he was asleep, and he didn't look up when he heard footsteps.

The jailer replied: "Your Majesty, since last night, he has not eaten a drop of water, and has sat there without saying anything. "Prime Minister Yuan has been deposed of his official position, and he has committed the great crime of rebellion, and the jailer does not know what to call him.

Hearing the word emperor, Prime Minister Yuan finally had a little reaction, raised his head weakly, and saw that it was Emperor Yan, and smiled dejectedly.

Seeing that Emperor Yan had no intention of leaving, under the guidance of Furen's eyes, he moved a stool for Emperor Yan.

Emperor Yan sat down unhurriedly and looked at Prime Minister Yuan calmly. After a long time, he slowly opened his mouth: "Aiqing doesn't want to talk to me?"

Prime Minister Yuan raised his head slightly: "The criminal has nothing to say." ”

With that, he lowered his head and smiled bitterly. In his life, he has served two generations of kings conscientiously, and the most earth-shattering thing he has done is to force the palace to rebel, but this matter has completely cut off the Yuan family's back road. Thinking that his Yuan family has been favored for several lifetimes, but it was ruined in the hands of him alone, it is really a shame for the ancestors and ancestors.

"You are loyal to the master, I have seen it in my eyes, I never thought that our monarch and ministers would come to such a situation, it is really chilling. Emperor Yan said to himself, with a little sadness.

Prime Minister Yuan Cheng had great ambitions, ambition and bravery, and when the first emperor was still there, he attached great importance to him, and when he ascended the throne, he did help himself a lot and shared many state affairs for himself. In his eyes, he is a good courtier, but this good courtier finally has thoughts that he shouldn't have, which is embarrassing.

"Even in the days when I left the palace, you did a lot of wrong things, I wanted to deal with you, but I couldn't make up my mind, I didn't expect to ......" Emperor Yan said this, abruptly stopped, and looked at him fixedly.

Prime Minister Yuan was quite touched when he heard it, he had never understood the emperor before, but now he suddenly understood. The emperor in front of him single-handedly created a prosperous era of a dynasty, with both wisdom and bravery, rich political achievements, and diligent government and love for the people. The first emperor was suspicious and wary of the ministers plotting to usurp the throne, but the emperor was completely different, he cherished talents, and as long as he did not have the heart of rebellion, he would not be ruthless. Just like Su Shangshu back then, the same is true, if he hadn't made a mistake, the emperor would not have punished him for the nine clans at all. How clever he is, how can he not see who is right and who is wrong, and how easily he will not listen to slander.

He eventually embarked on the road of no return, and now that the matter has been settled, he regrets it too much.

He couldn't help but kneel on the ground, and begged with tears: "Your Majesty, all this is deserved by the guilty minister, I just ask you to spare the minister's wife and the children of the Yuan family." ”

"I agreed, the old and young of the Yuan family are sick and disabled, I will give them a place to live, as for the others, ......" At this point, Prime Minister Yuan knew that this was already a great gift from Emperor Yan to him, and he thanked him again and again.

Everything that should be said was said, Emperor Yan got up and went back to the palace, Prime Minister Yuan looked at his back, thought about it, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, have you ever talked to Feng Shangshu about transferring troops to destroy the door?"

Emperor Yan's footsteps froze, he didn't know what he meant, and he didn't want to think about what he said, but he still answered his question seriously: "I have never said these strange things to Feng Aiqing. With that, he walked away without looking back.

Prime Minister Yuan sat on the ground, full of remorse, and raised his head to the sky and shouted: "Feng Shangshu, in the end, I was defeated in your hands. If he hadn't had a ghost in his heart, listened to the instigation of others, and fell into the trap that Feng Shangshu designed for him to meditate, he wouldn't have fallen to this point.

All of this is his own fault.

It's a pity that no one knows about his resentment anymore.

When Emperor Yan walked halfway, he sighed helplessly, and then suddenly turned his head and walked in the direction of Kunning Palace.
