474 The Decree of Saving Life (2nd Watch)

Rong Jing's thin lips were lightly raised, and he said coldly: "I don't know where my father wants to divide me?" ”

"An Wu, or Yiling, which one do you like?"

After Rong Jing heard the two place names spoken by Emperor Chu, the cold color in his eyes was even worse. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Anwu is located in the most border place south of Southern Chu, and the South China Sea, although rich, but thousands of miles away from the capital, want to return to Beijing, even if it takes several days to ride a horse day and night, and the middle is separated from the national line, the army can not be pulled. And Yiling is close to the Principality of Han's Mansion, there is a large army to suppress it, if he has the slightest objection, I am afraid that if he does not wait for the move, the army will be able to crush the entire Yiling overnight.

Emperor Chu chose a good place for him.

He looked at Emperor Chu coldly and said, "Father doesn't want me to stay in the capital so much?" ”

Emperor Chu lowered his eyes slightly, "It's not that I don't want to keep you, but I know that if I die, no matter who ascends the throne, they won't keep you." ”

Rong Jing's eyes were full of mockery, "Since my father knows so well, he should know that even if you seal me out, they won't be able to tolerate me." Or did my father think that as long as I left the capital, I would be able to avoid all strife? ”

"I didn't think so, so I left a decree for you. Pender! ”

Peng De, who was on the side, hurriedly stepped forward when he heard this, carefully took the holy decree in the hands of Emperor Chu, and then held it in front of Rong Jing. Rong Jing lightly picked up the holy decree and opened it, it was clearly written, if the Chu Emperor died and the new emperor succeeded to the throne, King Ling would be ordered to go to the fiefdom immediately, and no one would be allowed to stay......

After King Ling read the holy decree, there was no joy on his face, he just rolled it up casually, held it in his hand and raised it towards Emperor Chu, and said with a mocking smile: "Father thinks that with such a holy decree, he can keep me safe?" ”

"At least no one dared to touch you until you went to the fiefdom, and after you went to the fiefdom, I believe that with your means, it is enough to protect yourself." Emperor Chu said lightly.

Rong Jing sneered when he heard this, "Father is really enough to look down on his sons." ”

Let him protect himself, what to protect himself? Let's not talk about whether Empress Dowager Xiao will let him go once Emperor Chu dies, let's just say that if the people in Beijing know that he has such a holy decree in his hand that is enough to decide whether the new emperor will stay or not, except for the new emperor, everyone wants him to die, as long as he dies, all the clues point to the new emperor, and the old ministers can abolish the emperor. Open guns are easy to dodge, but hidden arrows are difficult to prevent, even if he has a group of subordinates in the dark valley, plus 3,000 garrisons in the garrison, can he prevent those who are bent on killing him?

What's more, this holy decree can only protect him for a year or two at most, once the son of heaven and a courtier, once the new monarch sits on the throne, promotes his own people, and controls the court situation, this holy decree will no longer have any deterrent power, and when the new monarch frees his hands from the court, the first thing to be removed is himself, the prince who is enough to threaten his imperial position! In this world, there has never been an emperor who can tolerate the life of a person around him who shakes his throne from time to time!

Emperor Chu saw what Rong Jing was thinking, and he said in a deep voice: "I will hand over all the Tiger and Leopard Riders and Iron Eagle Guards to you, with them, no one dares to take the initiative to provoke you." ”

Rong Jing's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at Peng De behind Emperor Chu as if he didn't seem to have any, and saw Peng De's face full of surprise, his hand holding the teacup stiffened for a moment, and the next second he quietly put the teacup in front of Emperor Chu, and when he got up, he glanced in the direction of Rong Jing, and then quickly retreated to Emperor Chu with his head half-down.

Emperor Chu didn't see the abnormality between the two, but said with a little tiredness: "Tu Yi, Shi Lin." ”

The two figures quickly appeared in the imperial study, and they both knelt down towards Rong Jing expressionlessly, and said respectfully:

"Tiger and Leopard Cavalry Commander Shi Lin, see His Royal Highness King Ling."

"Iron Eagle Guard leads Tu Yi, see His Royal Highness King Ling."

Rong Jing's eyes were dark, and he raised his eyes to look at Emperor Chu.

Emperor Chu just said with a calm face: "The two of them are my henchmen, absolutely loyal to me, Jing'er, after you go to the fiefdom, the two of them will be loyal to you with the tiger and leopard cavalry and the iron eagle guard, as long as you don't rebel and don't covet the throne, they can keep you safe for the rest of your life." ”

Emperor Chu's words sounded good, but Rong Jing heard from his words the meaning that he didn't finish talking about later. If he keeps to himself and is a prince in the fiefdom, these two will follow the emperor's order to protect him and be loyal to him, but if he rebels, or one day covets the throne, these two will not hesitate to make a move, except for him.

Rong Jing sneered in his heart, when he saw the holy decree just now, he thought that Emperor Chu was old and confused, so he would protect him so thoroughly, but when he saw Tu Yi and Shi Lin, he understood that Emperor Chu was still Emperor Chu, no matter how kind and benevolent he was, and how much he thought about him, but the premise was that he must not touch the forbidden place in his heart, otherwise his ruthlessness would never be half soft-hearted because he was Sima Wencheng's son.

In the final analysis, he is still the man who can give up everything for the throne and power.

Rong Jing directly put the holy decree into his sleeve, and said with a cold expression: "Since my father and emperor have already made a decision, why do you bother to ask your son?" After the death of his father, the sons will obey the emperor's orders. After finishing speaking, he glanced at the two kneeling on the ground with a mocking face, and had no intention of letting them get up, but said coldly: "If the father has nothing else to do, the son will leave first." ”

He didn't wait for Emperor Chu to speak, he turned around and walked towards the outside of the imperial study, and Emperor Chu frowned when he saw this, looked at Rong Jing's back and suddenly said, "Tomorrow the palace will be sacrificed, let Xue Rou also come." ”

Rong Jing's feet paused slightly, and his face with his back to Emperor Chu was condensed with unconcealable killing intent and yin owl, and when he looked back, there was only frost left in his eyes: "Rourou is busy with everything, and I don't have time to participate in this kind of boring banquet." ”

"What if I asked her to come to announce your marriage?"

Rong Jing not only didn't like it when he heard this, but his face sank, and he looked at Emperor Chu with warning eyes and said coldly: "I don't have to worry about the affairs of Rourou, if my father has leisure, it is better to think more about whether he can see the child in Ning Guifei's belly alive!" ”

"You!"

Looking at Rong Jing's eyes full of coldness, Chu Huangqi's face was pale, he wanted to speak angrily with gloomy eyes, but he didn't want Rong Jing to give him a chance at all, so he turned around and left.

Seeing Rong Jing go straight out of the imperial study, the back was resolute, and the upright Chu Huang suddenly didn't catch a breath, he covered his chest and coughed violently, his face turned pale in an instant, and his already dark lips were faintly black, and his expression was even more decayed.
