At three o'clock on the second day of the second month of February-

Just when there was an endless dispute over a person's life and death in the palace, in the cold and damp prison, Xia Chuqi sat on the thick straw, looking at the round little face in front of him that was squeezed into a bitter gourd, as if time had turned back to the day of Qinggang County, she was also in the firewood room, and the plum was also here to deliver food for her, and it was also like now, crying a lot, which made people sad and funny.

Tilting her head, she shook Meizi's shoulder.

"The thorns on your face are all gone, why are you still crying?"

Meizi sniffled, sobbed, half-opened her lips, and called out "Chu Qi...... as if crying" The rest of the words choked in her throat, except for strings of sobs, she was stunned for a long time before she said a word.

"Why is your life so miserable?"

Is her life miserable?

Xia Chuqi pursed his lips.

Originally, she wanted to ridicule Meizi, but after all, she felt that it was not in harmony with the atmosphere.

Sighing helplessly, she curled her lips and smiled, "Okay, okay, don't cry, okay?" I'm kind of convinced of you, can't I eat it? Looking at your crying face, I feel awkward, who is in prison? People who don't know think I'm here to visit the prison. Go! ”

Her optimism and cheerfulness infected Meizi.

With a poof, she cried = one = this ~ read = novel = ybdu to the extreme, and laughed with red eyes.

"Chu Qi, don't be afraid, Ye will definitely find a way to save you out."

The hand holding the lid of the sandalwood food box paused slightly, and Xia Chuqi's face suddenly darkened.

"When eating, can you not mention people who make people unhappy?"

Meizi said "ah" and looked at her inexplicably, "Chu Qi, did you misunderstand something?" He cares about you very much, and when he heard that you didn't eat, he was so angry that he lost his temper, and no one dared to say anything. No, he asked Chief Chen to bring me and asked me to let you eat no matter what. By the way, Chief Chen also ordered that the things in the prison should not be eaten. ”

At all costs?

Don't eat other people's stuff.

Was he afraid that she would die and his conscience would be upset?

Frowning almost indisputably, she stared at Meizi's sparkling eyes, smiled mockingly, and lazily hid against the wall, indifferently opening the food box and bringing out a few simple meals inside.

"Cut, it's not too rich......

Meizi pulled her mouth and smiled, "Master said that you ate too much meat at noon, and you have to eat it lightly at night, otherwise it will not be good for your stomach." ”

Do you eat too much meat at noon?

At the small banquet in Yin Chunyuan, she didn't eat much, and she didn't know what she ate into it, and he hadn't seen her, how could he know that she had eaten too much meat?

Patting Meizi on the shoulder, she sighed.

"Okay, just rush to your heart, I have to eat."

Picking up the bowl, she casually picked up a chopstick dish.

But as soon as she brought it to her lips, she paused.

A pair of little fox-like eyes, narrowed slightly, and paused for a long time before slowly bringing the food into his mouth.

On the second day of the second month of February—

The lights in the palace did not mean to be extinguished, but the palace lamps on the wall had all been replaced by red to white, white flowers had been tied up on the trees, and all the curtains had been replaced with plain white.

Emperor Hongtai suddenly issued an order to "make a decision" against Chu Qi, a decision that came so suddenly that it almost immediately aroused everyone's surprise and opposition.

I was surprised, I didn't expect it.

There are different reasons for opposing it.

Some people objected because it was not easy to take the opportunity to grab Zhao Zhu's braids, and they could take advantage of the "Chu Qi's murder of the prince" to make a big fuss, go down the vine, and get more people to come out. In this way, the killing is extinguished, how can the later scenes be sung? As for some people, they naturally knew that the old emperor wanted to directly behead Na Chu Qi in order to calm down the fighting, so as not to cause another incident, but no one wanted to watch the fire from the other side.

King Ning was the most excited, "Father, this matter cannot be closed easily. ”

Xie Changjin, the secretary of the Ministry of War, immediately discussed, "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that what His Royal Highness King Ning said is extremely reasonable, and murdering the crown prince is a big crime, and it is necessary to arrest the henchmen." ”

Lu Huaming, the secretary of the Ministry of History, disagreed, "The minister thinks that this matter should be decided by His Majesty's Qiangang, and Chu Qi should be killed." ”

There are always different opinions on a matter of "killing or not killing", and even in front of Emperor Hong Tai, he also engaged in party factions. But who is friendly with whom and who is a party with whom is not so clear can be seen from the surface. The matter of the court, how deep the water is, you can see it from the perspective of this matter.

Emperor Hong Taidi was dizzy, rubbing his temples and frowning all the time.

Finally, he looked at Zhao Zhu, who was speechless.

"Old Nineteen, what do you say?"

Zhao Zhu's mood today has been very calm. When others were arguing, he almost didn't intervene, and now he was named by Emperor Hongtai, and his gaze, which was as cold as the wind of the Layue River, did not change at all, and after thinking about it, he seemed to have made up some kind of determination, suddenly squinted, brushed off his robe, and knelt down in front of Emperor Hongtai in a proper manner.

"Father, the son has a way to prove that Chu Qi not only did not murder the prince, but has been treating it sincerely, and he has indeed made meritorious contributions to Dayan Sheji."

"Oh, what can you do?"

Emperor Hong Taidi's voice was deep, and the eyes of others also fell on him.

Zhao Zhu didn't get up, his arm sank suddenly, and he took out a cold and shining short knife from his arms with a "whoosh", and in the consternation of the crowd, his eyelids pierced his left arm without blinking-

For a moment, blood was dripping, and the red blood stained his arm, and it also fell on the carpet of flowers on the ground, causing screams to rise in the room.

"Your Highness——!"

"Nineteenth Brother ——!"

"Old Nineteen ——!"

Under the bewildered and stunned gazes of everyone, Zhao Zhu looked at Emperor Hong Tai indifferently as if he didn't know the pain at all, and slowly took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms and raised it under the candlelight.

"Father, this is the blood of the crown prince. Chu Qi once said that bayberry disease can be transmitted by human blood, and other drugs are not good for complete cure except for penicillin. That's why she researched penicillin, with the aim of fighting poison with poison and using the poison of penicillium to restrain the poison of bayberry. Now Erchen has integrated the blood infected with bayberry into the blood of Erchen, and if he is infected with bayberry, he can test it himself to prove it. ”

The last eight words, he said very heavily and loudly.

Without waiting for anyone else to respond, he took the small porcelain bottle and poured it on the wound.

I saw a "bang", and before he finished his action, the porcelain vase flew out, and in front of him was Emperor Hong Taidi's trembling fingers with excitement, "Wow, even you have learned to force your father?" For the sake of a woman, old nineteen, I came to ask you, is it worth it, or is it not worth it? ”

Kowtowing heavily, Zhao Tuo replied coldly.

"It's worth it to return to my father."

Gritting his teeth, Hong Taidi's emotions had been burned to the extreme.

"Good, good. Forced me, huh? Even if she deceived my son so deeply, she had to die. Come on, send the decree down, kill! ”

At three o'clock on the second day of February—

Xia Chuqi in the prison touched his round belly and burped several times. To be honest, if it weren't for the wrong time and place, she felt that the days when she didn't have to do anything and didn't have to think about anything would be considered comfortable.

"It's a pity, the last supper......"

A quarter of an hour ago, news came from the jailer, Xiao Ding.

said that her "penicillin laboratory" in the Jin Palace's palace was ordered by the emperor to be investigated. The emperor summoned the three princes and nine ministers to discuss, and it was already determined that it was her "poison" that caused His Royal Highness the crown prince to die violently. His Majesty was furious, and had already ordered the Ministry of Punishment to execute her at noon tomorrow.

For a moment, she didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

Originally, she confidently wanted to use "penicillin" to change the medical history of this era, but the history did not change, and miracles were not created, but now she had to lose her life for that penicillin. Suddenly, she thought of Zhao Zhe again, if he didn't die, would penicillin come out?

In the current situation, she knew that there was no way to explain the scientific theory of "penicillin" to the ancients, after all, with their current medical thinking, it was not up to that level. Besides, no one will give her a chance to say so.

Decisive ......

At this point, she felt that death was something terrible.

All along, the purpose of her coming to Beijing is to find a fool and avenge the unjust death of the person in the case of Wei Guogong, and now the fool has seen it, he is now the eldest grandson of the emperor, and he will definitely live a good life in the future, with meat to eat and clothes to wear, and she doesn't need to worry about him. And to avenge the Wei State Communion...... She could only say sorry to the owner of this body and Li Miao. She doesn't belong to this era in the first place, maybe she will wake up from a dream when she dies, and she can return to the enlightened era that really belongs to her, how good? At least not to lose your life for the development of penicillin.

I felt a sting in my heart.

She sighed and looked at the bowls left by the plum for a moment.

Slowly, she got up and smiled as she leaned towards the wooden fence.

"Hey, little brother...... I want pen and paper. ”

The little jailer was snorting, yawning at the sound of something, a little unclear.

"What to do? Big night. ”

Xia Chuqi curled the corners of his mouth, his smile became a little sweeter, he thought about it, and slapped him again, "Little brother, please find me a pen and paper, I'll give you five taels of silver, how about it?" ”

Having already been deceived once, who could possibly believe her?

The little jailer obviously didn't believe it, but Xia Chuqi smiled and bent his eyes, "Really, don't worry." When I finish writing, you give that thing to your cell boss, and let him present it to His Majesty and the King of Jin, and the King of Jin will reward you with a lot of silver, believe it or not? ”

"I don't believe it."

Hey Yile, Xia Chuqi pursed his lips, "I knew you didn't believe it." "It seems that if you don't give something real, you really can't convince people. After thinking about it, she lowered her head, rubbed the southern red beads that had been hanging around her waist, dragged them out, looked at them, touched them, and finally took off the red rope and handed it to Xiao Ding together.

"You know this, right?"

"I don't recognize it."

"......" Xia Chuqi was a little silent for his loneliness before continuing, "It doesn't matter if you recognize it or not, you just need to know that it's valuable." Take it as a pawn, at least you can ensure that your family has enough food and clothing for ten years, and you can't miss the opportunity, you won't come again, you think about it? ”

This sentence is too powerful.

The little jailer's eyes lit up again, "Really, no longer deceiving people?" ”

At the beginning of the summer, he squeezed his eyes.

"I'm a good guy and I've never lied."

Obviously, this was not convincing, and the little jailer curled his mouth, but he looked at the southern red beads against the candle flame, and although he didn't understand, he could still see that it was really a good treasure. He liked it in his heart, and he smiled and stuffed the beads into his arms and left happily.

Soon, he brought pen and paper.

Sitting cross-legged on the straw, Xia Chuqi looked at the white paper in front of him with sparkling eyes, carried a brush, thought for a while, and bowed down to write. But as I wrote, I probably felt uncomfortable in my wrist, so I simply broke the pen shaft again, held it in my hand like a pen, and continued to write a line of words on the white paper crookedly.

At the beginning of February, when the third son -

The deep night shrouded the city.

But tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

Not only is the palace brightly lit, but even the streets of Jingshi are lit with lanterns. When a prince dies, nowadays, the funeral rites and funeral rites are very strictly limited, and they all have to be in accordance with the funeral procedures, and there can be no mistakes. According to the funeral rites of the prince, first of all, three days after leaving the dynasty, the Hanlin Academy will write the memorial text, the book text, and the inscription will be made by the Ministry of Industry, and the officials of the Qin Tianjian will divinate the burial period. After that, all the civil and military officials in Beijing had to wear mourning clothes to worship, and they fell together for three days and wept for three days. In addition, all soldiers and civilians in Beijing must serve for five days.

On this sleepless night, the sky covered by thick clouds was not very bright.

Ning Wang Zhao Xi was dressed in filial piety clothes, standing at the window with his hands in his hands, looking up at the dark and oppressive sky, and pacing back and forth in the room without thinking.

"Third brother, I can't wait any longer."

Not far behind him was Zhao Kai, who was wearing heavy armor, "Father's decision is already obvious." He didn't investigate the fact that Mianhuan was drugged, obviously to protect Mianze. He killed Chu Qi and didn't settle accounts with Lao Nineteen, but also to protect him. Third brother, can't you see it yet? We are nothing in the eyes of our father. Now you've gotten to this point. Victory or defeat is all about this. ”

Zhao Xi's hands behind his back were a little tight.

"Sixth...... My heart was beating fast. ”

Zhao Kai's eyes moved slightly, and he quickly swept over again, "Third brother, those who become big things are not informal." I'm not afraid of following you and affecting my family, why are you so indecisive now? ”

"Sixth brother, aren't you really afraid of ruining your reputation?"

"Third brother, I'm fed up with the days of living under people, and when you reign in the world, you will canonize me as the king of generals, so that I can also live an addiction to being in charge of thousands of armies and horses in the world. Open up a vast territory for you, guard my Dayan country for you, under one person, above ten thousand, what a happy thing is that? ”

Seeing that he said it categorically, Zhao Xi's throat was a little dry.

"Sixth brother, once it doesn't work, you and I will die without a place to die......"

Zhao Kai frowned, "Third brother, there is a big chance of winning." Now the forbidden army is in my hands, and the three major battalions of the Beijing army in the land of Gyeonggi have what you have in your hands...... What's so hard about it? ”

After being quiet for a long time, Zhao Xi finally clenched his fist.

"Lao Liu's words are reasonable, I missed today, and when everything settles, if my father decrees that Zhao Mianze is canonized as the prince, or another person is the prince, then I just planned this scene in vain and made a wedding dress for others?"

"Third brother, let's do it."

Zhao Kai's words were impassioned, he took a step forward and held Zhao Yi's hand tightly.

In the palm of his hand was a token for the deployment of the forbidden army.

"Third brother, you bring people into the palace, and my younger brother and I guard the major city gates and escort you."

"Yes, good brother. Once the matter is accomplished, I will not lose you. ”

"The younger brother will always be the first to look forward to the third brother."

On the third day of the second month of February—

The night was already deep, the fog had lifted, and the sky was still a little cool.

In the East Warm Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace.

The princes and ministers have all dispersed to mourn the crown prince.

In the huge room, there were only two people, Emperor Hong Tai and Zhao Zhu.

In the mist, a little eunuch dressed in an inner chamberlain hurriedly took a roll of paper and handed it to Cui Yingda, who was standing at the door.

This note was passed into the palace from the prison.

Cui Yingda thought about it for a moment, bowed down and went in to report to Emperor Hong Tai.

There were two sheets in that scroll of paper, which were written "His Majesty the Emperor personally opened" and "His Royal Highness the King of Jin personally opened". Emperor Hong Tai coughed, took it, handed the piece of paper with "His Royal Highness the King of Jin personally opened" to Zhao Zhu, and looked at the one in his hand.

That word, it's so ugly.

But the meaning is very clear, and it is clearly written-

"Your Majesty, the grass people are not talented, but they also know that the life of the prince is related to the society and the country. Now that this happened, although it was not what the grass people wanted, the grass people pleaded guilty. It's just that penicillin was developed by the grass people alone, because it had been proposed with His Royal Highness the King of Jin before, and no one was allowed to enter to watch. Therefore, not only did His Royal Highness the King of Jin not know about this matter, but everyone in the palace of the King of Jin did not know what was in the research room, and asked His Majesty to make a judgment. The grass people know that His Majesty is a Ming monarch, and he will definitely not implicate the innocent. Grass people Chu Qi respected. ”

"What a tricky woman."

He frowned, snorted, and slapped the paper on the case.

And Zhao Zhu, who was sitting opposite him, looked at the familiar earthworm font, but his hands trembled a little.

"It takes a second to meet someone, it takes a minute to know someone, it takes an hour to like someone, it takes a day to hate someone, and it takes a lifetime to forget someone...... Everyone says that they never regret meeting, but if I had to choose, I would rather not meet you by the Qingling River, and I would rather the Mao Moon of the Qingling River be a little brighter, so that I can see you more clearly, I would rather never believe the story under the pearl that night, and I would rather never listen to the guillotine meal you gave. Therefore, when I hear that when a person has to end his life, he should leave a sentence so that the living can remember, and I am also ready to leave you a sentence - Zhao slut, fuck off your mother's eggs, Lao Tzu regrets dying, I won't see you in this life, no, don't see you in my life. (Attached: I owe the jailer Xiaoding a hundred taels of silver, remember to help me pay it back.) ）”

The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, Zhao Jun pinched the paper, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

Immediately, under the scrutinizing gaze of Emperor Hong Tai, "Flutter" knelt down.

"Father, my son has one more thing to do—"

Emperor Hong Tai's brows furrowed even tighter, "Say." ”

Zhao Jun looked at him and said lightly, "Father, my son is still hiding something from you!" ”

"What?"

"Chu Qi, she has long been pregnant with Erchen's child."

The old emperor was shocked when he heard this, and his arm was so excited that he brushed the paper on the table to the ground, "What did you say?" ”

Zhao Zhu's eyes remained the same, but his gaze was as burning as the moon, "Erchen should be damned!" Because of Chu Qi's humble status, his sons have never dared to report to his father. In fact, as early as when she was in Qinggang County, Erchen had already taken her in, and when she was pregnant with Erchen's child, Erchen deliberately concealed the truth, but many people knew about it, and his father knew it when he checked it. Now, in order to save her life and save Erchen's child, Erchen doesn't dare to hide it anymore. ”

"Old Nineteen, Old Nineteen......"

Emperor Hong Tai pointed at him and was not angry, but Zhao Zhu was still light and light.

"Please punish your father, but no matter what, Chu Qi is pregnant with the imperial heir, I am afraid that she will not be able to endure the suffering in prison, so please ask my father to see in the face of the imperial heir and let Chu Qi go this time. In the future, Erchen will take her away from Jingshi and go to Beiping, and will no longer attract gossip. ”

The old emperor's face was as dark as iron, "Really? ”

"It's true."

With a snort, Emperor Hong Taidi glanced at him coldly, and his angry complexion eased a lot, but his voice still couldn't calm down.

"Don't think that with my grandson, I will have to spare her."

Zhao Zhu's expression froze, "Father, ......"

"What are you anxious about?" Emperor Hongtai glared at him, full of anger, "Old nineteen, old nineteen, you have always been at a loss, and you are the most sure of my thoughts." But today, I don't want to do what you want. But don't worry, for the sake of my grandson, I will give you a chance. ”

"Please make it clear to my father."

"You accompany me in the next game, if you win, I will allow you to spare her life and let her go to Beiping with you. If you lose, you have to obey my arrangement. ”

Zhao Zhu's eyes were slightly cold, his Adam's apple slid a little, and he finally got up.

"Okay."

In the warm pavilion, Cui Yingda and Zheng Erbao both went outside to wait, and only the father and son sat on both sides of the chessboard in the hall. In the middle is an elaborately carved chessboard, on which black and white are mixed in, and the battle is inexorable. Zhao Zhu's face is still calm and calm, and the old emperor's chess style is still so majestic, and he has not changed at all.

"Old Nineteen, you are always so calculating step by step, and you are good at attacking the heart."

Zhao Zhu said lightly, "Father, there are too many variables in the world. Sometimes many things happen, often out of the calculations of the sons. ”

Hearing his words, Emperor Hongtai's hand paused slightly, waves flashed in his eyes, and then his voice sank, "You have always been smart and good at planning, and you know best what I mean." Now, only my father and son are two me, I ask you one more question, and you answer honestly. After a pause, he accentuated his tone, "The death of the crown prince, sure enough, you didn't participate?" ”

Zhao Jun looked at him calmly and fell behind.

"Erchen used the head guarantee on the item, I really don't know."

After hesitating for a moment, the chess pieces in Emperor Hong Taidi's hand finally fell, "Who is it?" ”

Zhao Zhu's eyes narrowed, and his voice sank slightly, "Erchen doesn't know." ”

Emperor Hong Tai snorted, "You don't know anything, then you should always know, you are calculating Yu me like this, what kind of heart does the old man have?" ”

Zhao Zhu's eyebrows frowned slightly, and before he could answer, a guard outside hurriedly came to report, shouting "Oh no", His Royal Highness King Ning rushed into the Forbidden Palace with someone, and he had already come in the direction of Qianqing Palace.

Emperor Hong Taidi's face sank, and he stretched out his hand to flip the chess game.

"It's against him!"

The chess pieces in Zhao Zhu's hand were slowly closed in the palm of his hand, sighed slightly, and still sat calmly in place, quietly looking at Emperor Hong Tai with a complicated expression in front of him, and answered his last question.

"He's plotting your father's position. And what the son is planning is just a woman. ”

Emperor Hongtai turned around and looked at him fixedly, "But the holy decree has been issued, and you have no jokes." ”

As soon as he arched his hand, Zhao Tuo got up, meaning something, "Father, the son is willing to behead Chu Qi." ”

Emperor Hong Taidi narrowed his eyes and replied incompatibly.

"Old Nineteen, just for a woman?"

"Yes."

"Why? In terms of quality and appearance, she is not outstanding. ”

Zhao Zhu's eyes softened slightly, and the emotions in his eyes were complicated and indescribable.

"Erchen thought, that's fate."

"Okay." Emperor Hongtai's eyes deepened again, and his face became even more gloomy, "Old Nineteen, I hope you remember today's words." I hope that apart from that, you don't have anything else to deceive me. Otherwise—I will never forgive again. ”

Zhao Zhu frowned fiercely and lowered his eyes.

"Erchen knows."

As soon as he finished speaking, behind the plain white drape, the screen carved with Nine Dragons trembled slightly, and Cui Yingda, who was originally standing outside, ran over in a hurry.

"Your Majesty, rush in. King Ning's people surrounded the Qianqing Palace. ”

Emperor Hong Tai was furious, "What are you afraid of? Could it be that he really dared to kill him! ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Cui Yingda lowered her head and didn't dare to say anything more.

The situation outside is already changing, and Zhao Xi, the king of Ning, took Zhao Kai's token and led the forbidden army into the palace, making the entire palace forbidden land a mess.

In order to mourn the prince, he put on a white plain tent, and blew in the cold wind under the momentum of the Praetorian Guard. The palace maids and eunuchs along the way, watching the armor-clad King Ning rushing in murderously, hugged their heads for a while, screaming everywhere, under the table, behind the flower platform, there were people everywhere, so that the originally solemn and solemn nine-fold palace was not much better than the bazaar.

The sound of soldiers was everywhere......

The armored forbidden army surrounded the Qianqing Palace, and confronted the Jinyi guards who rushed to hear the news at the gate of the vermilion lacquer palace of the Qianqing Palace, one team was under the steps, the other team was on the steps, and in the space filled with the smell of blood, the situation was about to erupt.

The palace change, that was the turmoil of a dynasty.

King Ning looked at Dongfang Qingxuan, his eyes were red.

"Governor, please get out of the way, this king has something to report to his father."

Dongfang Qingxuan is not wearing a red cannon today, dressed in filial piety clothes like a bewitching and delicate Tianshan Snow Lotus, with a playful smile on his noble face.

"Today, the whole country is mourning for the crown prince, and His Majesty is physically and mentally exhausted, and he has fallen asleep. His Royal Highness King Ning broke into the palace late at night, but I was afraid that it would be inappropriate. Qing Xuan advises you, let's go back. ”

King Ning, who had already controlled the entire palace with soldiers and horses in his hands, was already red-eyed at this time, and he could almost see the bright yellow dragon robe, waving to him in the wind, and the throne made of gold in the Fengtian Palace, which was only one step away from him. Even the goblin in front of him, who was so beautiful that it bewitched his nerves all the time, would soon be owned by him, how could he let go?

"Governor, do you want to let you go?"

Qing Fang Dongxuanguan smiled: "What do you say? ”

King Ning gritted his teeth and took a step forward, and pulled out his knife with a "swish".

"Then it's no wonder that this king is here."

As soon as he drew his sword, the forbidden troops around him also drew their swords. For a time, the cold light and fire light illuminated the gate of the Qianqing Palace, and seeing that the bloody conflict between the forbidden army and the Jinyi Guard was inevitable, the two confined Qianqing Palaces suddenly opened.

"Bold Zhao Xi! Dare to lead people straight into my dormitory, is this a rebellion? ”

The person standing at the gate of the palace with his hands in his hands is the white-bearded Emperor Hongtai.

Behind him, stood Zhao Zhu, who was always cold-cold.

King Ning had always been afraid of his father, and when he was drunk by Emperor Hongtai, his face suddenly turned pale. I saw him take a step forward and kneel on one knee, and the heavy armor on his body rubbed into a "sonorous" sound.

"Father, the son has something to do."

Emperor Hong Tai sneered, "Why don't you go to the palace to play again?" ”

King Ning got up slowly, and the weapon in his hand glowed with a dazzling light.

"Father, please forgive the child for being unfilial. Everything today is what you forced your children to do. You have so many sons, in your eyes, there is only the eldest brother, only the nineteenth brother, I am your son-in-law, but I am not even as good as a concubine, and even Zhao Mianze, the grandson of the emperor. You know it, why is Mianhuan stupid? It must be related to the identity of Zhao Mianze's grandson, but you don't check it. You know in your heart that Chu Qi's daughter is the body, and the old nineteen has known it for a long time, but you still cover ......"

Word by word, King Ning paused, his voice a little choked.

"When have you ever looked at Erchen again? When I was a child, my sons did not do their homework well, and you scolded them fiercely. Later, the sons worked hard every day, and their homework got better, but I didn't see my father, and you also praised me as a good son? ”

Emperor Hong Tai was so angry that his hands were trembling.

"Stupid, you are all my sons, where did you come from?"

With a wry smile, Zhao Xi's face was a little distorted under the light of the torch, "Is there really no intimacy?" Father, if you touch your heart, is there really no intimacy? Yes, sons have always been stupid, and they can't get into your eyes or your heart. So today, Erchen is willing to risk the world's condemnation...... Yes, the sons are here to force the palace, the prince is dead, and the sons are also your sons-in-law, why can't the sons? Please ask your father to decree that the crown prince has died, and the third son of the emperor, Ning Wang Zhao Xi, will be appointed as the crown prince. ”

Emperor Hong Taidi looked at him and suddenly smiled.

"Or else? You're going to kill your old father? ”

"Erchen doesn't dare."

Zhao Xi knelt down on one knee again, raised his already moist eyes, and gritted his teeth fiercely, "Otherwise, the son can only let your father and emperor live in peace, regardless of the government." ”

Emperor Hong Taidi closed his eyes fiercely.

"Third child, who lent you the courage to dare to make such a difficult attack on me? You have to know that it's not that I don't look down on you, it's that you're really embarrassed. In terms of strategy, prestige, and merit, you can't afford to dare to meet with my sword soldiers now. This move, you walked so badly, you just lost my old face. ”

Zhao Xi had tears in his eyes, "Yes, Erchen will always be the most humiliating one of your sons." It's just that now, Erchen is not afraid to say it clearly. The entire imperial city is already under the control of Erchen, and the garrison of the entire Gyeonggi land will also obey Erchen's orders. Father, the matter has come to this point, and there is no way for anyone to reverse the situation, so you can make an order, and your sons will not hurt you. ”

"The garrison of the land of Gyeonggi?"

Emperor Hong Tai raised his eyebrows and looked at him coldly.

"Yes!" King Ning got up again, his gaze abruptly swept over Zhao Zhu's unchanged cold face, and he raised his hand a little proudly, only to see that in his palm was a golden tiger talisman.

"Father, the old nineteen lost the tiger talisman, but he couldn't play it secretly, and unfortunately gave his son a chance to find it. Now the military horses of the entire suburban camp of the Beijing Division are in the hands of Erchen. Do you decree, or do you not? Erchen really doesn't want to use force with you, he just wants you to take a look at your son, he is not a waste. ”

"You really made me look the other way." Emperor Hong Tai sneered, "I have never seen someone as stupid as a pig like you. ”

"Okay, father, then it's no wonder that the sons and daughters are the ministers."

His merciless scolding made King Ning Zhao Xi angry, and he no longer trembled.

"Brothers, on board, today's work, Zhao Xi will be rewarded in the future. Take the Qianqing Palace, please abdicate Your Majesty. If there's resistance, shoot and kill—"

Everyone understands what his words mean.

For a while, the forbidden troops who had already surrounded the Qianqing Palace were pounced on with the "sonorous" sound of the swords, and the brocade guards who were all dressed in manuscripts also pulled out the embroidered spring knives and waited for them, standing horizontally on the steps of the Qianqing Palace, and protecting Emperor Hongtai at the gate tightly behind him.

A palace mutiny began with shouts of killing.

And once he shot, he opened the bow and did not turn back, except for five steps of blood splashing, there was no way back.

The cold wind gusted, and the sound of killing was everywhere,

The forbidden army and the brocade guards were entangled in one place, and the scene was chaotic!

At this moment, I saw a person suddenly break into the corridor outside the palace, and before the person arrived, he had already shouted, "All the forbidden troops obey my orders, lay down their weapons, and must not harm Your Majesty." After that, he didn't wait for others to respond, and already knelt heavily on the ground, "Father, the son is late to save the driver, please forgive my father." ”

The person whose face was covered with blood and killed all the way in turned out to be Zhao Kai, the sixth king.

When the forbidden army under his command saw that it was him, they all looked at each other and stopped.

A fight suddenly became silent.

Zhao Xi's eyes flickered, thinking that he hadn't seen clearly. After a moment's hesitation, he grasped the bloody scabbard, suppressed the churning annoyance in his heart, and looked at the comer.

"Sixth, what are you doing?"

Zhao Kai didn't pay attention to him, but kept kowtowing to Emperor Hongtai to ask for guilt, "Father, the son is guilty of death, the son is overly sad today because of the death of the eldest brother, he ate a few more glasses of wine, and the warrant for the transfer of troops was taken by the third brother, and the son is guilty of death, father." ”

"Sixth—"

Zhao Xi's face turned pale, "How can you treat me like this, didn't you say that the time has come and you can do it?" ”

As soon as he heard this, Zhao Kai kowtowed again.

"Third brother, why do you want to trap me in injustice at this time?"

Zhao Xi's heart was shocked, his mouth was miserable, and he finally spoke, "Sixth brother, do you know what you are doing?" Wasn't it all discussed? ”

"Third brother-" Zhao Kai's eyes were suspicious, looking at him ignorantly, panicked, "Third brother, don't mess me up...... My father treats me like a mountain, how dare I give birth to the heart of killing my father? ”

"I see."

Zhao Xi smiled bitterly and stood quietly in the crowd.

"I understand everything......"

At this moment, before he could say anything, outside the palace with a cold wind, there were bursts of "kicking" footsteps, and the "clanging" sound of large firearms pressing against the ground. Soon, on the road, which was already crowded with soldiers, a column of neatly dressed Golden Guards ran out. The leader is Chen Daniu, the left general of the Jin Wei Army, and next to him is Yuan You, the right general who is chic and does not dominate the smile on his lips.

Rows of firearms were erected outside the Qianqing Palace, and the Jin Guards surrounded the Imperial City Forbidden Army.

In terms of numbers, weapons, and bravery, the Forbidden Army was no match for these people.

Zhao Kai defected, Zhao Xi was heartbroken, but when he saw Jin Weijun appear, he was dying and struggling as if he had seen a life-saving driftwood, his eyes showed surprise, and he held the golden tiger talisman in his palm, and ordered loudly with increased courage.

"All the soldiers obeyed the order, quickly removed the forbidden army, and surrounded the Qianqing Palace......"

"Poof", and before he could finish speaking, Yuan Yu laughed.

"The third uncle really hasn't been on the battlefield, it's too naïve. Do you really think that with just a tiger talisman, you can let Jin Weijun obey orders in front of His Majesty? Now that Your Majesty is in front of you, tell me, do we listen to Your Majesty, or do we listen to you? ”

After a pause, Yuan You smiled again, "What's more, the tiger talisman in your hand, Third Uncle, is still fake." ”

Fake?

The waist knife in Zhao Xi's hand "clanged" to the ground——

His eyes were cold, and his whole feet were weak, and he had fallen to the ground. Seeing such a situation, those forbidden soldiers who were still fighting bloody battles before had already thrown away their sabers, and knelt on the damp floor like dumplings, bowing their heads and confessing.

"The third." Emperor Hong Tai looked at Zhao Xi sadly, "You really live more and more and go back, and you dare to force the palace?" I really underestimated you. Now, what else do you have to say? ”

Zhao Xi looked at him in a daze and smiled bitterly.

"If you become a king or lose a king, your sons have nothing to say. Father, you are right, the sons are really stupid, just the pig brains of the sons, if the palace is really forced, then it will not be able to sit firmly in the position of Jiuding. Father, son, and son are now finally enlightened. ”

"Enlightened what?" Hong Taidi's voice was still cold.

"I have understood a lot," a tear slipped from the corner ......of Zhao Xi's eyes, "When my father asked his sons to take charge of the Imperial Procuratorate, he once said to his sons that what kind of person should do what kind of thing." Let his son be virtuous and energetic, take good words, build a career for the court, and when he goes to the domain in the future, he can continue to be loyal to the country and protect my territory. Father, you are a son of love, you have already shown the way for your son, and according to the talent of your son, you can only do such things. It was the sons and daughters who became disobedient and blinded by selfish desires......"

"That's it-" Emperor Hong Taidi looked at him, his eyes full of sadness, "It's good to regret it." ”

His fatherly voice made Zhao Yi stunned, "Father? ”

Emperor Hongtai let out a long sigh, "Go to the Zongren Mansion to reflect." ”

As soon as his eyes were closed, Zhao Xi's tears rolled down, knowing that his life was saved, he couldn't help but kowtow a few times.

"The son thanks his father for not killing him."

"You are my son, and the tiger poison does not eat children...... Emperor Hong Tai said, and sighed again, "Go to Kunning Palace to bid farewell to your sick queen mother in bed." In the future, I don't want to see you again. ”

Emperor Hongtai brushed his sleeves away, and behind him, the gate of the Qianqing Palace was closed.

"Yes...... The son thanked his father for his grace. ”

Zhao Xi stumbled on the ground, and when he raised his head again, the people outside the Qianqing Palace had already dispersed. His eyes full of tears finally fell on Zhao Zhu, who was dressed in filial piety clothes in front of him, and seeing that his white clothes were like snow, he only felt that every inch was cold.

"Old Nineteen, did you lure me into the game?"

Zhao Tuo approached step by step, his voice was cold, "If you don't have the intention, no one can force you into the game." ”

Zhao Xi took the tiger talisman and was full of hatred.

"This tiger talisman is fake, where is the real tiger talisman?"

"On that day, my father came to the Jin Palace, and in the Moon Invitation Pavilion, I presented the tiger talisman to my father." handed over the tiger talisman and matched the word "filial piety" on the chessboard to show his filial piety to Emperor Hongtai, in exchange for today's Zhonghe Festival, Emperor Hongtai's grace to the seven crimes of bullying the king at the beginning of Xia.

"But you're also a chess player." King Ning opened his mouth weakly, with a strange expression on his face, "The death of the crown prince was something you didn't expect in advance?" Or do you think you can stop it? ”

Zhao Zhu didn't answer, only looked at him coldly, his eyes light.

"Haha, you must not have thought of it. Once a woman is ruthless, it will actually be more ruthless than a poisonous snake? Looking at him with a wry smile, Zhao Xi's eyes were faintly red, saying that it was pain, but it was a kind of dying struggle of a loser.

"Old Nineteen, it's a pity that you have exhausted your efforts, and in the end, you are still a woman who can't keep you."

"Don't worry about it." Zhao Zhu's cold eyes like a halberd crossed his face, thought about it, and lowered his ear, "Except for me, Jin Weijun will not obey anyone's orders." ”

After that, he was about to brush his sleeves away, but Zhao Xi suddenly laughed.

"Old Nineteen, look behind you, what is that?"

Zhao Jun suddenly turned his head, followed his fingers, and looked in the direction of the prison.

There was already a thick smoke, and the fire turned half the sky red—
