Chapter 500: Extra Four: First Awakening
These two edicts were handed over to Chen Jianghuai, the Qingguo Duke of the two dynasties, and the first emperor summoned him to the palace before his death, and talked secretly for a long time.
Although this Qingguo Gong is Chen Guifei's father, and his grandson is the fourth prince Li Jinyu, their Chen family has never had high hopes for such a straw bag as Li Jinyu, and the first emperor trusted him very much, otherwise he would not have entrusted such an important will to him.
But when Qingguo Gong took out the first secret edict, he was categorically rejected by Li Jinjian, who had seen the secret edict with his own eyes.
He had abandoned it before, and now he would not change his mind, but rather flocked to it. In his eyes, those who break each other's heads and bleed in order to compete for the world are really unreasonable.
Qingguo Gong didn't admit that there was still a prince who looked down on the emperor in this world, so he was very shocked and said: "Your Highness, this is the edict left by the first emperor before his death, His Royal Highness should not have disobeyed it!"
Li Jinjian only said coldly: "Even if my father is still alive, he should know that nothing can be imposed on me." I think my father should know my temperament very well, and there should be more than this edict on the body of Qingguo Gong. ”
His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince has always been very cold, which is well known to everyone in the court. But Qing Guogong couldn't help but be stunned, there was indeed another edict in his hands.
However, the emperor had told him in every possible way before his death, and the first edict was to state who the new emperor was, and when the new emperor was successfully enthroned, the second edict could be destroyed. But if the new emperor encountered a critical situation before he ascended the throne, this was the best time to open the second edict.
Qing Guogong looked at Li Jin's handsome face that was as cold as frost, and the heartbeat in his arms suddenly seemed to skip a beat.
Could it be ...... Did he really get it right?
Originally, this situation was not very critical, but if you opened it rashly, I was afraid that it would be a little disobedient to the holy order.
But within this moment of stalemate, Qingguo Gong couldn't help but sigh secretly when he saw that Li Jinjian was becoming more and more impatient, as if he was about to leave at any time.
If he insisted on refusing to carry out the edict of this first edict, leaving the country without a king, it would be a particularly critical time.
So the second edict was opened, and the first emperor came up and reprimanded Li Jinjian, and then the next words turned around and changed to welcome the powerless and powerless prince who was as rootless as duckweed.
At this time, Qingguogong's heart really fell back into his stomach, and the whole person felt steady.
Although His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince is a natural and rare imperial talent, he is too rebellious and is not the best candidate who is willing to follow the rules and sit firmly on the throne.
Although the crown prince has never been valued by the first emperor, what he has received since he was a child is how to sit well as the king of a country, although his temperament is elusive, but it is obviously more suitable than the seven princes who are obedient and loose by nature.
So just in the middle of this thought, the overall situation has been settled.
Until today, after the change of dynasty and another river of blood, it has returned to tranquility, and Qingguo Gong is already old and almost delirious.
But just when his mind was occasionally clear, he couldn't help but think that if he insisted on welcoming the Seventh Prince as the new emperor back then, and oppressed him with the heavy responsibility of his family and country, would there be a different situation in Weiyang's current situation?
He didn't dare to tell anyone these thoughts until he died, after all, the choice between these two was only known to him and Li Jinjian, and even the current emperor never knew.
Since it has been an impenetrable secret since the beginning, it has always been let sink into the sea and never see the light of day.
In returning to the little one outside Tianyin City

In the third year after the mountain village, Li Jinjian finally felt that this life was too boring, and left the small mountain village that once left his best childhood memories.
He had been to the water town in the south of the Yangtze River alone, and stepped lightly on the drizzly soaked bluestone road. He also diverted to the desert outside the national border, and was sharpened by the overwhelming yellow sand, and his body was covered with scars, decorating the vicissitudes between his eyebrows and the wind and frost in his eyes.
He used to be the most handsome prince in Weiyang Kingdom, a nobleman in front of the fresh-clothed angry horses, and now he is fighting with swords all over the world, but he doesn't know what he is looking for all his life.
The years passed like water, and now at this age, I don't know if it has been more than ten years or more than twenty years since he left Changle City.
It was a small town, in a humble liquor store, but a few people sat around drinking and arguing, and the shopkeeper leaned against the counter and dozed off.
Outside the door, a howling wind rose from the ground, and when you looked up at the oppressive sky, you knew that a summer storm was coming.
The wine shop was so shabby that the wind outside was a little louder, and the beams inside shook vigorously, as if the roof would be lifted off at any moment.
But when I saw the casual appearance of the store, I knew that the roof still weighed a thousand pounds, and it couldn't be lifted off no matter what. The people who drank and quarreled in the hall were all people from the town, so they were naturally very familiar with it, so they didn't have the slightest fear.
Only one of those who sheltered from the bad weather here was an outsider.
It was a man in old clothes and a beard, and he couldn't tell how old he was, but he definitely wasn't young anymore.
He looked like the men who worked all day long in the town, not only sloppy but also depressed, the kind of person who would never want to look at him a second time after one glance.
When he came in silently and put a small ingot of broken silver on the counter, the shopkeeper did not even lift his eyelids, and shouted inside, "Girl, serve the wine!"
When the fourteen or fifteen-year-old shopkeeper's little daughter came out with a flask and a food box, she put a large pot of spirits in front of the man, and took out a few cooked foods from the food box one by one, and set them on the table.
She smiled and said, "Guest, use it slowly!"
If she had left it as usual, she would have said this and turned and left. But today, somehow, she stood there and waited for a moment, wanting to see what kind of face this tall and tall outsider looked like hidden in the deep brim of her hat.
He was clearly very self-contained, even if it was just a humble liquor shop in a small, run-down town on the border, so strong that it almost burned his chest and throat, and the men were so rough and noisy that they almost tore off the roof.
But just as the girl was about to turn away, he still raised his head and opened his lips slightly, and said in a low voice, "Thank you." ”
His star-like eyes were particularly bright, as if they had illuminated the dilapidated tavern in an instant, and he was an extremely dazzling presence.
There were several calls from the shopkeeper in the girl's ears, and then she turned around quite awkwardly and ran back in a panic.
The visitor didn't care, but ate and drank at the small table that had fallen in the corner.
He knew, and the girl was secretly watching him from behind the curtain at the counter.
The wind outside became more and more violent, and just looking at the gloomy posture and the lightning that flashed through the sky from time to time, I knew that this was a particularly crazy storm coming.
The people in this wine shop are getting more and more crowded, and those who have a few dollars come in to buy a glass of wine to drink, and by the way, they scold this God, and change their faces faster.
If you don't have money, you'll have to

Crowded under the porch, there is a place to shelter from the wind and rain.
But no matter how many people there are, no one will pay attention to the outsider sitting in the corner.
Except for an old man in ragged clothes and a gray beard, he wanted to take advantage of the crowds to crowd in the door to find a corner to nest in, and it was better not to blow the wind outside the door. But when he saw the visitor, his eyes straightened, and he walked over with his feet raised.
The girl pouted unhappily, this would be fine as usual, but the old man's clothes were so dirty that they were almost no different from beggars, and he had to disturb people's interest.
She wanted to go over and drive him out, but the visitor didn't seem to care at all, but took a glass of wine and poured a glass of wine for the old man.
The two sat opposite each other and had a drink with good manners.
Seeing this, the girl didn't want to step forward, so she had to hide behind the curtain and continue to watch secretly.
The old man straightened his sitting posture and said with a slight smile: "I haven't seen you for many years, and it turns out that His Highness's heart knot has not been untied. ”
The visitor's eyes were really rare in the world, and at this time he only sighed lightly and drank another glass of wine, "The national teacher refuses to help, and I can't." ”
"It's not that the poor are unwilling, it's really fate. ”
"This king has never believed in the destiny of heaven, but only thinks that man will conquer heaven. ”
"Your Highness is really as always, and I really admire Poor Dao. ”
"I don't know if the agreement between you and me in the past still counts now?"
"Of course, it's just going against the sky. At the beginning, the poor road followed the will of heaven, but now it is very depressed and uneasy. Knowing this, it would be better to respond to His Highness's request as soon as possible, maybe we will suffer less over the years. ”
When they met for the first time in Changle City, the national teacher divined the omen of the world's great evil, and Li Jinjian was just an ignorant child, and his life was almost guaranteed.
Later, he was so close to the throne that reigned over the world, but he still gave up without hesitation, and searched and wandered around all his life, just for the knot in his heart and that person at that time.
Nowadays, things are not people, and they still have to go that way, regardless of it.
It was already pouring rain outside the door, accompanied by bursts of thunder, so that the people under the verandah of the wine store couldn't help but want to run into the house to avoid the wind and rain.
But there were two people in the house, and they pushed through the crowd and walked outside.
The girl's eyes had been fixed on the visitor, and she couldn't help but be shocked, so she hurriedly followed her to take a look.
When she reached the door, she saw the stranger followed the bad old man, and the two of them were not afraid of the storm, and disappeared before her eyes.
Now I have a glimpse, and I haven't seen it for many years.
I had such a long dream, as if I had finished my life.
Outside the window, it was still dark, but the morning light was already faintly visible, and it was only a moment and a half before dawn.
Li Jin saw that he turned over when he woke up from a big dream, and he touched the soft and fragrant woman lying beside him. He didn't even think about it, and took her into his arms.
Qi Nian asked vaguely in a half-dream, "What's wrong...... It's not dawn yet......"
Li Jinjian's eyes shone in the dark, he hugged her tightly in his arms, kissed the soft hair on the top of her head, and said softly: "It's not dawn yet, sleep, sleep." ”
It turned out to be just a dream, but luckily it was just a dream.
