Liu Yantian kept kneeling in the Shangqing Courtyard, I don't know how long the time has passed, but he can only hear the crisp sound of the golden bell in the main hall.

Wisps of green smoke floated on him, about to smoke his whole body.

Liu Yantian remembered the message from the palace attendant, "Concubine Li asked you to give it a go, now is the last moment, there is no way to wait any longer." ”

Liu Yantian broke out in a cold sweat when he thought of this, and immediately the sweat was dried by you, and the longer he waited, the more anxious he became.

"Pavilion Elder," Gonggong Han walked over and said, "Your Majesty has invited you in." ”

Liu Yantian's heart jumped suddenly, almost stumbling into the palace door, and then seeing the emperor bowing his head and blowing incense, the empty hall was cold and silent, and it was indescribably terrible to walk into.

Liu Yantian knelt down.

The emperor handed the incense in his hand to the chamberlain, tilted his head and looked at Liu Yantian very strangely, "I heard an interesting thing, saying that there is a rumor in the market that my pavilion elder is actually a ......" The emperor paused at this point, as if he was thinking, and continued for a while, "Bastard." ”

The waiter's eyes flickered and he didn't know what to say, and the entire hall was buzzing, as if many people couldn't hold back their laughter.

"Isn't that what you say?" The emperor's voice was clear and asked the chamberlain beside him.

"Snort, snort, sneer......"

The sound of those chuckles seemed to be in Liu Yantian's ears, and the laughter made Liu Yantian's body tremble, and his face was bloody.

He wanted to take advantage of the Chang family, but he didn't expect to be caught by Zhou Chengling, and now the streets and alleys are talking to each other, all watching the jokes of the Liu family.

"Elder Ge, you explain to me, what does this mean?"

Liu Yantian lifted the strength of his whole body. looked at the emperor, "Your Majesty, the minister imprisoned Yang Bingzheng, and when the Feng Party rebelled, the minister found out that Yang Bingzheng was not dead." Originally, he should have reported this matter to the emperor, but the emperor promoted Zhou Chengling to lead the troops to Baoding Mansion, and the minister thought, in case Zhou Chengling has the heart of not being a minister, he can use Yang Bingzheng to coerce, Zhou Chengling won the battle and came back, and the minister asked the emperor not to reward Zhou Chengling, if he did not suppress it, it would become a disaster in the future. Sure enough, this time Zhou Chengling rescued Yang Bingzheng, and it took so many days to report to the court, and he didn't put the emperor in his eyes at all, the emperor still remembered that he once said to the old minister, the biggest disaster in your heart is Zhou Chengling, the old minister has always remembered in his heart, the emperor, you must not be deceived by Zhou Chengling......"

Liu Yantian said in one breath.

He just wanted to remind the emperor of his jealousy of Zhou Chengling, and the emperor would use him if he wanted to deal with Zhou Chengling, just like Feng Guochang before. He's not yet at the point where a rabbit dies and a dog cooks.

The emperor narrowed his eyes, "What does Elder Ge mean that everything is for me?" ”

Liu Yantian knocked on the ground, "The minister is for the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the minister knows that what he does is heinous, but the minister has to do it, and the minister is willing to apologize for his crimes with death to protect the emperor's country." ”

When the emperor heard this, he suddenly chuckled, "Is it possible for the elder of the pavilion to be the king of the dead country?" As he spoke, he stood up, "No one can escape my eyes, I know what you're all planning." You all want to be at the mercy of me. ”

The Emperor walked down the steps. The coat of green silk silk was blown by the wind like scattered petals, "But there is one thing that the elder is right. I want to rely on Zhou Chengling, but I want to hold him firmly in my hands. ”

Liu Yantian heard hope, "Your Majesty, Feng Guochang was in the Manchu Dynasty when the civil and military forces were in the same stream with him. The Imperial Historian has not yet stood on his side, and now Zhou Chengling has military power in his hands and uses the Imperial Historian as his eyes and ears, which is really the biggest disaster. ”

Zhou Chengling wanted to take him down in one fell swoop, so he pressed step by step, making him breathless, but this also exposed Zhou Chengling's shortcomings, Zhou Chengling was too flamboyant, like a sword out of the sheath, the blade of the sword would not return to the sheath if it did not see blood, he thought that Zhou Chengling would tremble in fear, wouldn't the emperor? As long as he is fighting with the emperor, he can fight for a way to live.

Zhou Chengling was too confident, and how many civil and military ministers were mobilized to harm him, forcing him to have no way out, and exposing King Kang's party to the emperor.

"These days, I have folded and handed them to the Shangqing Academy, although the old ministers are in the cabinet, they can't suppress those imperial histories, as well as the military department Shangshu, the official department Shangshu, and the Shuntian Mansion Yin, those people are all speaking for Zhou Chengling," Liu Yantian's eyes jumped suddenly, "Didn't the emperor notice it?" ”

The emperor curled his lips slowly, what he was thinking about was something that Liu Yantian and Zhou Chengling could know.

All of them are pawns in his hands, and only he knows when and where to put them.

Liu Yantian continued: "Your Majesty, the emperor can take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of the big trouble, so that the political situation of the court will be controlled by the emperor." ”

Liu Yantian's eyes lit up, and the whole person trembled with excitement, as if he lived for this day in his life, just for the emperor to get power, and he had long put his personal life and death out of the way.

Now he is the greatest loyal minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, don't miss the opportunity and come again."

"The current situation is very clear, as long as Zhou Chengling is eliminated, the minister is willing to die," Liu Yantian raised his head, "If the emperor thinks that Zhou Chengling has made great contributions and cannot explain to the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, then the old minister is willing to be the emperor's murder knife and get rid of this scourge for the emperor." ”

"In the future, if anyone is to blame, only the fault of the old minister."

Liu Yantian's voice made the entire hall buzz, and Liu Yantian, who was trembling with fright, was refreshed because of these impassioned words.

"And what do you say you want to do?" The emperor looked at Liu Yantian, he just liked to see this scene, so he would weigh all the rights, and when the time was ripe, he would silently pinch him to death in the palm of his hand, he was the emperor, he was the smartest and most powerful person in the world, and everyone had to bow down to him.

Liu Yantian said: "Call Zhou Chengling into the palace, and the old minister killed him while he was unprepared." ”

As long as he kills Zhou Chengling by the emperor's hand, he will be able to turn the whole situation around, this is his last way out, Liu Yantian's eyes are bleeding, he failed to kill Zhou Chengling a few years ago, this time he must make up for this mistake, as long as Zhou Chengling lives for a day, he will not be happy.

"Do you really have such a mind?" The emperor remained silent and picked up the tea bowl and drank tea.

Liu Yantian knocked his head on the ground. "The old minister is willing to relieve the emperor's worries."

The emperor squinted his eyes, since he restored Zhou Chengling, he had people quietly stare at Zhou Chengling's every move, and he already knew about Zhou Chengling's meeting of the imperial history in the Yang family. The military department Shangshu and others also tried their best to work for Zhou Chengling, Liu Yantian was a traitor, and Zhou Chengling deserved to die, the reason why he did not immediately dispose of Liu Yantian was to let Liu Yantian deal with Zhou Chengling.

That way he'll save a lot of effort.

Sitting on this throne, you must know how to strategize, and he has already expected today's situation.

"Why did I call Zhou Chengling into the palace?" The Emperor lowered his eyes, as if he didn't care.

If you want to call Zhou Chengling into the palace quietly, you must not startle the snake. Liu Yantian held down his panicked heart, "Weichen has already thought about it." ”

"Zhou Chengling and Yang have a very strong relationship. That's where you start...... In this way, he can poke Zhou Chengling's heart. Liu Yantian paused slightly as he spoke, and looked around.

I don't know when there are only two people left in the hall, the emperor and him.

Liu Yantian knelt forward and climbed a few steps, "What does the emperor think of the medicine that the Yang clan refined with the Dan furnace?" ”

The emperor raised his eyes, as long as he thought of the Yang family, he felt that he was one step closer to ascending to the immortal, if he didn't have an immortal fate, why would an alien like the Yang family appear in this dynasty, he waited patiently just to wait for the Yang family to refine the elixir that could bring the dead back to life.

Liu Yantian said: "When Yang Bingzheng was rescued, he was already out of breath, but he went to Yang's place and took Yang's medicine but came back to life. ”

This should be the emperor's favorite words.

Liu Yantian cautiously probed. Looking at the emperor's face, coming back to life and living with the sky is what the emperor wants most, and now only the Yang family can do such a thing, "The emperor doesn't want the Yang family to come to the Qing Academy and make alchemy for the emperor?" ”

Let the Yang family come to the Shangqing Academy, first of all, you have to pass the Zhou Chengling pass, as long as Zhou Chengling is alive, he will protect the Yang family. Zhou Chengling died. Whatever you do will be much easier.

Let Yang enter the Shangqing Academy.

Hearing this, the emperor suddenly looked at Liu Yantian. How could Liu Yantian know what was in his heart.

Yes, he just wants the Yang family, and he wants the Yang family to take people to refine the elixir for him. Help him become an immortal.

Liu Yantian looked at the emperor's glowing eyes, his heart suddenly jumped with joy, and he finally guessed the emperor's thoughts.

"Your Majesty, the night is long and the dreams are ......," Liu Yantian persuaded in a low voice.

"The emperor can let Zhou Chengling come to confront the ministers, we will arrange the manpower outside, and wait until the emperor orders everyone to capture Zhou Chengling together, even if he has three heads and six arms, he can't escape."

……

Yang Mo has always felt uneasy, and Princess Alcohol said, "What are you thinking?" ”

Yang Mo shook her head, "If it weren't for my pregnancy, I would have been on my way to the Poplar Hall by now." She was originally scheduled to go with Wei Mao to see the situation in Yakultang, although the war had passed for a long time, but many wounded soldiers were still recuperating in Yakorotang, and the dignitaries in Beijing donated a lot of rice grain and herbs, so she thought about going to Yakorotang to arrange arrangements.

Princess Alcohol County smiled: "Take your time, there will be time in the future." ”

Yang Mo nodded.

"Don't think too much, the most important thing is to raise the baby now, and you have something to rely on when the child is born safely."

Princess Junjun has something to say, in fact, as long as people close to Zhou Chengling should know what Zhou Chengling will do in the future, but she doesn't want anything now, as long as Zhou Chengling can be safe, she will be relieved.

Yang Mo was thinking about it, when Mei Xiang came in and said, "Princess, the prince has sent a message from there, and the prince has gone to the Shangqing Courtyard, saying that the emperor wants to ask Liu Ge about the elderly." ”

Yang Mo nodded.

Princess Alcohol County said: "I heard the prince of the county say that the case of the Liu family has been decided, and Liu Ge can't rely on it if he wants to deny it, you don't have to worry, just listen to the good news." ”

I hope so, and I hope that everything will be calm after today.

Princess Alcohol County took Yang Mo's hand, "The girl in my house has cut some new tricks, I brought it here today, you can pick if you like it, I will help you make the winter clothes and bedding in your house." ”

Yang Mo looked at Princess Alcohol County gratefully, "I know that I am clumsy, and Princess Xian also sent someone to send a lot of looks yesterday." ”

"It's not that you're clumsy," said Princess Alcohol, "it's that you put all your mind into curing diseases and saving people, where do people get so much spirit." ”

Both of them covered their mouths and smiled, and before the laughter was over, the mother-in-law outside came in and said, "Princess." The envoy of the Imperial Hospital came. ”

"At this time, shouldn't any master in the palace be uncomfortable?" Princess Alcohol said, "It's also strange, it's all about the hospital." Why are they running to you, one or two. ”

The envoy of the Ding court likes to discuss the case with her, so he came to Baohetang to be more diligent, Yang Mo said: "There is no one else here, so please invite the envoy to come in!" ”

The subordinate answered, and soon introduced the Ding Yuan envoy into the house.

The envoy of the Ding Yuan lowered his head and entered the door, raising his head to look at Yang Mo and Princess Yujun.

Yang Mo couldn't help but be stunned.

Ding Yuan's face was very bad.

"Princess." The envoy of the Ding Yuan looked at the princess of the alcohol county, and stopped talking.

"It's okay," Yang Mo took the hand of the princess of Alcohol County, "Princess Alcohol County is not an outsider. ”

The envoy nodded. "Has the princess heard anything? Today, I checked the pulse of the little Taoist priest of Shangqing Academy, and the little Taoist priest said that the emperor intended to let Princess Kang enter the palace for alchemy. ”

Princess Junjun's eyes widened, "How can there be such a thing?" When did the Shangqing Courtyard let the woman in? Besides, alchemy is a Taoist business, how can you let the princess go? What are these words? It must not be true. ”

As soon as Princess Alcohol finished speaking, the room suddenly fell silent.

Yang Mo and Ding Yuan envoy didn't speak, and Princess Junjun suddenly panicked, her voice trembled, "Could it be true?" ”

Yang Mo nodded for a while. "I think it's very likely."

Princess Alcohol's face suddenly burned hot, "Then what should I do?" ”

So what to do? The emperor's meaning, who can change it?

Yang Mo suddenly panicked, "Who else did the Ding Yuan envoy say this?" ”

Ding Yuan was stunned.

The princess said: "The princess is asking, does the prince know?" Now the prince is in the Shangqing Courtyard. ”

Does the prince know?

Ding Yuan made a string in his heart suddenly jump, "I...... I haven't told anyone about it...... Rajah...... The prince ......"

Yang Mo suddenly shook his palm.

……

Zhou Chengling walked into the Shangqing Courtyard step by step, and the emperor instructed Han Gonggong to bring the lotus seat for Zhou Chengling and Liu Yantian to sit down.

Liu Yantian took a deep breath, wanting to hold down his heart that was beating wildly in his chest, success or failure in one fell swoop. As long as he drops the tea bowl on the ground. The guards on both sides of the main hall would swarm up and chop Zhou Chengling into pulp.

A scene that he has not seen for many years is about to happen before his eyes.

As soon as you think about it, you will immediately bleed in front of you. He couldn't help but purse his dry lips.

Come on, come on, just get it done. Since then, no one has stood in his way.

Whoever he is, he will die at his hands in the blink of an eye.

Zhou Chengling, Zhou Chengling, it's a pity, because a woman is going to die in front of his eyes, and a swaggering woman like the Yang family will bring disaster sooner or later.

"Can you find out?" The emperor asked Zhou Chengling in a low voice, "What did the elder say?" ”

Liu Yantian hung his head and went to get the tea bowl, the tea bowl kept trembling, Zhou Chengling must have thought that he was afraid of being in a hurry, but in fact he was trembling excitedly.

Zhou Chengling thought he was about to finish, but in fact, it was Zhou Chengling who died, and he was the big winner.

Liu Yantian glanced at Zhou Chengling attentively, Zhou Chengling was as calm as usual all day, and he didn't find anything.

Liu Yantian dipped the tea bowl to his lips, and then the tea bowl in his hand fell to the ground, he immediately thought of retreating, he didn't want Zhou Chengling's blood to splash on his face.

The moment the bowl fell to the ground, he saw the guards come out of the main hall, and one of them drew his sword.

The bright knife was about to cut at Zhou Chengling's head.

Liu Yantian was overjoyed, one moment he almost made fish on the chopping board, and the next moment he turned the situation completely upside down.

The knife fell in his hand, Liu Yantian saw the bright sword, and then the sound of flesh and blood being torn apart, all the blood rushed out of the gap, boiling hot, as if it could burn the skin through, ** spicy smoke, steaming and rushing to his eyes.

Blurred his vision, and then gasped.

Liu Yantian looked at the blade on his stomach in disbelief, Zhou Chengling neatly took the knife in the guard's hand, and then sent the tip of the knife into his body with a gentle wave of his hand.

Everything is so fast, so fast and scary.

His heart was even jubilant, thinking that he had ushered in victory, and Liu Yantian didn't even feel pain when the knife went down, but happy.

He didn't know that the knife had stabbed him.

Why is this happening.

Liu Yantian looked at the emperor on the throne in surprise.

The immortal emperor also opened his eyes wide, his face was full of surprise, and the calm and relaxed he pretended to be on weekdays disappeared without a trace at this moment.

"Someone." When the emperor saw the blood, he suddenly shouted, his voice full of fear.

The feeling of power flowing away from his hands is so terrible, he used to think that birth, old age, sickness and death are the most terrible, but now he knows that the terrible thing is not death, but that others can decide his life and death, and the terrible thing is not life, but that he can't live as he wants.

From then on, he could no longer do what he wanted, because he was already under control.

The emperor's cold sweat suddenly trickled down his forehead.

The emperor's voice sounded in the main hall, but no one answered, and the guards in the main hall stood there straight, watching Zhou Chengling carry a blood-stained knife.

"King Kang, are you going to rebel?" The emperor steadied himself and shouted in a low voice.

Zhou Chengling looked at the emperor, "The emperor asked me to discuss Liu Ge Lao's case, this is my idea, a traitor like Liu Ge Lao should have died a long time ago." ”

"What does the emperor think?"

Zhou Chengling stepped forward slowly, his steps were broad, the sound of his feet falling to the ground was clear, and that calm demeanor was like a strong wind, blowing the emperor into a corner.

The emperor suddenly thought of Zhou Chengling's appearance when he put on the dragon robe.

"Bold." Gonggong Han, who was beside the emperor, suddenly said loudly.

The emperor looked at Gonggong Han, or the people around him were reliable, maybe Gonggong Han had already spread the news of King Kang's rebellion, and when the people from Jingying entered the Shangqing Courtyard, they would definitely restrain Zhou Chengling.

The emperor thought so, but when he turned his head, his heart suddenly fell into the ice cave, and what he saw was the cold gaze of Han Gonggong.

"King Kang asked, didn't you hear it?"
