After King Heng just arrived in the capital to listen to the report of his subordinates, he thought about it all night, and rushed to the palace to see Emperor Xuanwen before dawn on the second day.

At this moment, before the early dynasty, King Heng had always been an idle prince, so he didn't have to go to the court every day to worship, so he went directly to the palace to accompany him.

"The emperor came so early today, why don't you have breakfast with my father, you and I, father and son, haven't stayed so quietly for a while for many days." Emperor Xuanwen was dressed by his father-in-law and paced out.

I haven't looked at my father for a long time, I don't know when a few more gray hairs have been added, and his face is a lot haggard, it seems that his old man is not very comfortable these days! King Heng thought of the draft last night, and at this time he remembered all of it, so he went out with him.

The two sat down, the eunuchs arranged the dishes in their respective bowls, and Emperor Xuanwen waved his hand to signal everyone to go out. Although the prince intended to stay, seeing the emperor's face, he hesitated for a while and could only retreat silently.

"Where has the emperor traveled these days, but there have been very strange things to play with my father, after the abdication, my father also thought that I could swim in the mountains and rivers of Dazhou like you, I don't know what kind of pleasure it was at that time." Emperor Xuanwen put down the emperor's frame today, and talked to King Heng as a loving father, and his words were extremely kind.

King Heng couldn't guess what his father meant, and after thinking about it, this was probably the idea of his twilight years, sparing him as the king of a country, and staying until he was old was just thinking about some family fun. But can my father really get such simple happiness? I'm afraid it's not as good as the ordinary people's house, and doing what he wants to do is sometimes a luxury for him.

"As a father, I hope to have Heng'er by my side in my lifetime, I don't know what you think?"

King Heng suddenly woke up from his contemplation, these words meant several things, he didn't dare to think about it, he couldn't think about it, he just looked at his father with a puzzled face, this hero who stood up to the sky and the earth in his mind. For more than 40 years, the people have lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the whole world is happy, but he himself does not dare to slack off for a day. So he didn't dare to ask for the throne, because he was afraid that he would not be able to satisfy his father and emperor, and he was afraid that he would not be able to compare with his old man. "As long as your father needs it, your sons will accompany you at any time, and you should be a minister and a son of man." King Heng's words are not leaky, after all, this is a sensitive period.

"Yes, as a courtier, you should do your best for the Great Zhou, and as a son of man, you should be filial to your parents, but I want you to do my wish for my father, and for the people of the Great Zhou to live and work in peace and contentment for their descendants, I don't know what you think?" Emperor Xuanwen talked lightly, although what he said was earth-shattering, his eyes were only focused on the food in front of him.

King Heng was a little hesitant to speak, whether he should be full of joy, but at this moment, he couldn't use happiness to describe his mood anyway. After all, he has never coveted it, and in his mind, the royal brother who is always strict and majestic is the best heir to the throne, if his father suddenly passes on to himself, it seems that he has stolen someone else's things, how unsightly.

"You don't have to feel ashamed of him, he has repeatedly ordered you to kill, and I know my father, but I didn't stop it, because I have always felt that Rui was a good candidate for emperor when he was a child. He has courage, courage, open-mindedness and informality, and has the domineering spirit of a king, which you don't have, you are too indecisive and have a long love for children, indulging in mountains and rivers but not caring about government affairs. Emperor Xuanwen's praise and criticism made a more fair comparison between King Heng and King Rui.

King Heng couldn't help sighing, he had retreated everywhere for so many years, in order not to make the imperial brother suspicious, he stayed away from his father and traveled all over the world. But to a certain extent, this can also be regarded as a concession to family affection, if it is said that the hegemony of the government and government, there may be no man who does not have the slightest expectation. However, it wasn't until she met Ling'er that she was so innocent that when she was with her, she felt that all fame and fortune had become a shackle, so she was completely away from the palace in the past two years. But why did his father pull himself back at this time, he was a little reluctant to mention the matter of the throne again, and bowed his head and began to eat, which was a silent refusal.

"My father's life is not long, and I have been struggling to survive, just waiting for when Heng'er can come to see me, and you and my father and son can eat and chat calmly like this." Emperor Xuanwen saw that King Heng didn't say much about his words, but instead laughed sadly, his eyes were full of love.

King Heng could no longer maintain a calm appearance, the chopsticks in his hand fell to the ground with a flicker, and he looked at his father in surprise, not knowing what he meant by this.

"He won't let you go, how can he easily let go of my father and me, the poison in my body has entered the heart, the imperial doctor said that it will be only three or five months, except for the big tonic porridge that he enters the palace every day, there is really no other possibility, I think I am smart for a lifetime, I didn't expect to die in the hands of my son, is it retribution?" Emperor Xuanwen unconsciously slipped two old tears on his face, in the past, when he was fighting for the throne, he personally killed more than 100 members of his younger brother's family, the scene was extremely bloody, and he would wake up from the cry of the baby for countless days and nights. Now that it's time for him to repay his debts, he doesn't feel very sad, and he deserves it.

King Heng was angry, he could deal with himself, but he poisoned his father with his own hands, and he couldn't bear such a thing. Suddenly stood up, the jade bowl in his hand was also knocked to the ground, and a bowl of porridge was sprinkled all over himself.

"Sit down, if you go out like this and can't get out of the palace now, you will go to see Hades earlier than your father, do you want your father to watch you die?"

King Heng's clenched hands were bruised, and a pair of eyes were blood-red staring at his father, but he still sat down obediently, "Just let him do whatever he wants, how can you bear it, father?" Where is the heroism and domineering of your old man, don't you often educate your children to eliminate violence and peace, and be jealous and hateful, is it just because he is your child so connived, the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, sons. ”

King Heng was about to continue, but Emperor Xuanwen shook his head, "Father and Emperor have just discovered the reason why their body is getting weaker, I didn't expect that since the people closest to me have all betrayed me one by one, the queen, Li Zifu, Rui'er, and him." ”

Looking at the prince who seemed to be very diligently guarding outside, King Heng was speechless, he had not tasted the taste of being betrayed, but it was the first time he had seen it so thoroughly, how sad it should be. Maybe the poison didn't make his father give up his life, but betrayal and responsibility made him rather die to maintain the dignity of the royal family, so he chose to die peacefully, and then entrusted everything to himself to bear and face, is this a bit cruel.

"Since you are a member of my Great Zhou Ning family, you can't shirk this responsibility, my father knows that I am embarrassed for you, but I will help you in a short time, Heng'er, please give your father a guarantee, okay?"

King Heng hesitated, since his father at this time wanted to promise himself, just like he begged his father to take him to ride a horse when he was a child, and asked him to promise that he could take him to wander in the green grass when he had time, how desirable that kind of expectation was. But now that he is old, such a lonely old man needs his son's assurance, can he refuse? "I promise you, the prosperity of the Great Zhou will continue, and I, Ning Yiheng, as a descendant of the Ning clan, will definitely die for the great cause of my Ning clan."

Listening to his son's oath, Emperor Xuanwen smiled with relief, and the matter he had been hesitating for a long time finally made a decision at this moment. He thinks that he is worthy of the ancestors of the Ning family, and he can go underground and face it calmly without guilt.

"Lord, the prince sent a letter from the palace, saying that King Heng had breakfast with the emperor today, and sent off all the people who served, I don't know what the two talked about." After Ruifu finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to wipe his sweat, the situation has become more and more severe recently, and no one in the Ruiwang Mansion dares to slack off.

King Rui's deep eyes showed a gloomy light, didn't he care about political affairs, why did he suddenly run to see his father, could it be that the two of them had some conspiracy?

"Lord, with the meaning of the old slave, King Heng just wanted the emperor for a while, so he went to see it, after all, they haven't seen each other for many days, so it's not surprising." Ruifu's implication is that the prince seems to be too diligent, that old guy has taken benefits from his own hands, a monster who is neither male nor female, he will definitely not be able to do anything good if he asks for so much silver, Ruifu is very unhappy when he thinks about it.

King Rui glared at Ruifu, "The prince has always been cautious, learn more, go down first, and say that this king will enter the palace immediately." ”

"Lord Wang, the sweet soup of red dates and longan lilies you asked your concubine to make is ready, it's better to taste it and then go and don't be in a hurry at this meeting." The pendant is holding a white bone china tray in his hand, and there is a small bowl carved by jasper on the tray, and the red and white in the bowl set off each other, which looks very attractive.

"There is Concubine Lao, your body is heavy, just watch the people below do these things, you don't need to do it yourself, be careful of the fetal gas." His own heirs were thin, and King Rui paid more and more attention to Shen'er's belly, took the tray with both hands, and helped Shen'er to sit on the chair next to him. Seeing that she is shy, jade-faced and red-lipped, she is much more beautiful than when she was pregnant.

"The prince doesn't eat, but it depends on what I do, is it because the concubine's face is dirty?" Shen'er rubbed his pink face with one hand, and King Qiaorui saw it in his eyes, his body had already moved, he couldn't hold it, he bullied his body and pressed down, and a pair of hands were already dishonest to tear the clothes on Shen'er's body.

Shen'er was still struggling at first, but she could earn the King of Rui, and after a while, she could only succumb to things. When it was done, King Rui seemed to feel that he was reckless, so he comforted Shen'er. I didn't want to hear another knock on the door at this time, King Rui was too lazy to take care of it, and with a cold snort, the knocker had to retreat and wait, and the two of them struggled for a long time before getting up.

At this time, seeing that it was getting dark, King Rui pressed down on what Ruifu had reported during the day, and wanted to wait until dawn before he could go.

This night is Shen'er's bedtime, and Shen'er told King Rui about the various ideas of the child in her womb one by one, and also said that the imperial doctor said that this fetus is mostly a small son. King Rui was naturally happy, and it was not until the second half of the night that the two of them fell asleep tired.

On the second day after this night, King Rui felt dizzy and weak, and his limbs were weak, and he could not get up, so he took leave and rested in the house for a day.

King Heng counted the five hundred elite soldiers in King Heng's mansion, which should have been sent to the Bihai Heavenly Palace, but now he had to slow down, after all, the matter was too big to allow for any ambiguity. In private, Emperor Xuanwen sent him an additional 500 henchmen, although the number is not large, but fortunately, they are all elite soldiers, and the success or failure depends on this night's battle.

Han Yong walked to King Heng's side, "There is news from King Rui's mansion, because King Rui is extremely vigilant and suspicious, because the dose of the drug she gave is very small, and she will miss the best fighter plane after tonight, so the prince hurriedly ordered." ”

Standing on the parade platform and looking down at the warriors in armor below, King Heng was a little angry and a little confused, he was going to kiss his brother tonight, and this complicated feeling made him a little overwhelmed.

"Emperor, hurry up and give an order, after tonight you will be the new emperor of my Great Zhou, and all the hopes of my father are in you." I don't know when, Emperor Xuanwen, dressed in a black cloak, appeared behind King Heng, and a low admonition woke King Heng up like a bolt of lightning.

"Fight for my Great Zhou, fight for the generations of my people, go!"

When the large army heard the order, King Heng was wearing armor and walking in front with a sword in his hand, and Han Yong and Han Meng and several other personal guards were on both sides, and tonight was bound to be a night full of blood.

The door of King Rui's mansion was knocked open, and the housekeepers in the house poured out, and there were servants who didn't understand the situation and fled in all directions, and there were also the cries of the maids, but they couldn't escape the fate of being killed. Only by destroying each of them can we never suffer in the future.

Shen'er listened quietly to the movement outside, and she guessed that King Heng had led someone to break in, and the person next to the pillow was still sleeping peacefully. She touched her lower abdomen, this child really shouldn't have come to this world, but his arrival helped her complete the biggest thing in her life, and King Yu Heng's kindness was over. She was a little happy that she could start a new life after tonight, when the person next to her moved a little.

"What's going on outside?" Awakened, King Rui lifted the quilt and jumped out of bed.

Rui Fu, who broke in from the outside, was so frightened that his face turned pale and his legs were weak, "Lord Wang, it's not good, King Heng led a large team of men and horses to kill him, and he will kill anyone when he sees it, and he has the potential to destroy my Rui Wangfu, you can escape quickly." ”

King Rui is stupid, how is this possible, King Heng will never have such a vicious heart, he has not seen his revenge for his bitterness in the past, how can he say that he will destroy the door. He rushed out of the door with a sword in his hand, but the army outside the door had already rushed over, and King Rui was pressed back into the room. (To be continued.) )
