The Taifu, who has reached the age of sixties, has always pretended to be old and confused to protect his political life, and now he has finally made the most dangerous move: he has played his hole cards.

If Dongxun had told the truth so far, even if they were comrades and comrades, their eyes were full of tears, the onion stewed beef, and the doomed adultery on the chopping board, they could go hand in hand to roll the oil pot.

If Dong Xun is telling lies to deceive him, then he will roll his eyes and stare twice, and the two armor soldiers will come out, and Taifu can die and apologize. Maybe Cui Heng will reprimand him in person with righteous and strict words, and then sentence him to a prison sentence.

In the past, there was a little eunuch who made a mistake and wanted to be punished, who was bold and jumped over the wall in a hurry, and even spoke wildly to the emperor, claiming to seek justice. Cui Heng screamed to rip out his tongue and died.

At the critical moment, Cui Heng did not hesitate to use brutal means. These are the very means promised to him by the supreme imperial power.

Taifu has been an official in the court for so many years, and he can't understand the deterrent power of imperial power.

Sometimes, however, the imperial power loses its deterrent power.

This is when the imperial power can no longer guarantee the well-being and glory of its subjects.

When subjects have to choose between two dangers, it is difficult to say that the deterrent power of imperial power will be greater.

Man is inherently dead. It's a pity that people only have one death. Therefore, it cannot be stacked like "three taels of gold" and "five taels of gold". When the terror reached one side, it stopped growing. After that, it's just a game of two horror zones.

Is it a thief, or is it to continue to protect the emperor?

(In the joke about Tang Feng created by the witty writer, his subordinate said: "It's better to be a thief.") Everyone laughed. to reality. But it's not a topic that makes people laugh very well. ）

Faced with such a choice, Taifu actually chose to obey Master Xie and persuade Dongxun to return to Beijing.

Isn't Xie Xiaoheng already dead? Why does he still have so much influence on Taifu? A dead Xie Xiaoheng is better than a living Cui Heng?

Isn't the capital already extremely dangerous? Why did Taifu persuade Dongxun to go back? Is the realm of death a habitat?

Solving these two puzzles will go straight to the truth behind the scenes.

Taifu was extremely nervous.

Dongxun stretched out his hand and stroked the back of Taifu's hand.

His strong, reliable, warm, and powerful hand, once and again, stroked the back of Taifu's shriveled and depleted hand, like stroking a cat, but not so numb; It's like taking a stone lion, but with more understanding and compassion. Taifu gradually calmed down.

To be able to calm down, he couldn't help but think in his heart: No wonder the Seventh Princes would ......

Ahhhh Can't think! It's unthinkable.

Taifu really has this kind of ability. If you don't think it's appropriate, you don't even think about it anymore. This is probably a skill honed by years of politics. Otherwise, after experiencing a lot of choices that go against conscience, people are always thinking about it. It's going to go crazy.

He heard Dongxun's voice say, "Yes. Taifu. I'll go back with you...... What's wrong, Taifu? ”

Taifu Lao burst into tears.

Soon, the relatives of the Daling Emperor who left Beijing were devastated to find that their guards were gone!

Dongxun took part of the army with him, as well as some other officials led by Taifu. That's it! They also kindly left letters, saying that they would go back to protect the people of the capital and the tombs of the emperors.

This kind of statement is another clever remark of "correct name".

That is to say, before Cui Heng could roar and accuse them, they preemptively occupied the moral high ground, although they did not directly accuse the emperor, but said unmistakably: You escaped, we don't want to escape. We went back. If you have the ability, you can go back to Beijing. If you don't have the ability, do you still have the face to scold me?

Cui Heng almost didn't turn back in one breath and fell to the ground!

The palace people were in chaos. The remaining courtiers and generals were in chaos.

Dongxun has already taken away all the military forces he has held firmly, just like Taifu did in the civil service. The military generals who stayed behind were all loyal to the emperor or a little rigid, and they were not suitable for rebellion, so they stayed.

It stands to reason that after Dongxun and Taifu helped Cui Heng screen it like this, all that remained was loyal and good that he could really use. It's a pity what's the use of being loyal and good? Zhongliang is not necessarily talented, and it should be a big mess.

There was bad news from the west: Yun Jian stripped the two "messengers" and beat them up, and rushed them back!

No one dared to report the news to Cui Heng: It's terrible! What bad news! What should I do if I annoy the emperor? What should I do if the emperor is sad and hurts? A subordinate who loves the emperor should not report this kind of news to the emperor!

But after thinking about it again, if you don't tell Cui Heng about this, no one will make up your mind, so what should the people below do? Isn't everyone tied up together?

Thinking about it like this, everyone suddenly understood: the report Cui Heng's is still the report!

What's more, hasn't Cui Heng already passed the throne to the second prince? In this way, it stands to reason that Cui Heng is not the emperor anymore, but the emperor. The Emperor who is holding on to real power! He holds on to power, and everyone is welcome, just let him take on the obligations that match the power!

So the news was reported to Cui Heng:

When the two envoys arrived at the painting city, according to the prior order, they set up a shelf for Yun Jian to test Yun Jian's loyalty. Yun Jian is said to have not talked nonsense with them at all, and directly asked his subordinates to arrest the two of them, lifted their clothes and beat them naked, and then drove them out, claiming to be: The emperor has always been sympathetic to the border generals, how can these two men and women be powerful? It must be false! They can't be allowed to ruin the emperor's reputation. It's still light to take such a beating. Next time there is such a thing, kill it directly, lest the royal family be smeared by them.

Cui Heng sat quietly for a long time and muttered, "It's really worthy of Xie Yunjian." ”

When he spoke badly, he didn't give people a handle, but he still firmly occupied the moral upper hand. Cui Heng sat on the throne of the Emperor Taishang, as if sitting in a cage. Tired. Deep tiredness. He didn't even have the strength to be angry.

When I raised my eyes, I saw clouds on all sides.

The Queen Mother had a headache about how to make up for this mistake - it was she who proposed to let those two envoys put up a shelf to test the Cloud Sword! That's a really good idea by normal standards. It's a standard idea that only royalty can come up with.

But in its current form, this is really a stupid idea that only the royal family came up with. Because the royal family can't bear the consequences!

The Queen Mother is distressed, how to face Cui Heng's anger?

Oh, Cui Heng hasn't rushed to the Queen Mother to roar yet: "It's all your good idea!" Now that Yun Jian has really turned his face, how can we be good! It is estimated that Cui Heng has not reacted yet. The Queen Mother didn't want to wait for him to react. How can it be remedied?

Zhang Shenying is worthy of being the queen mother's good confidant, and immediately had an idea: Yun Jian really has a bad heart, and he will be angry when he goes to his territory, so it is better to know it in advance, and he will not go. If there is really a case, it is better to be martyred near the capital than to be humiliated on the territory of the generals.

Speaking of which, the Queen Mother's idea is still a good idea. Merely......

The Queen Mother sadly found that she was not as backbone as Zhang Shenying!

Don't look at what the Queen Mother usually says, she herself seems to believe what she says. When it came to the end, she really didn't think that she should die near the capital, and it was better than anything.

In other words, even if Xie Yunjian was not so loyal to the royal family, as long as he didn't tear his face, he might as well go and hide. At least for now, there is no better option.

It's a pity that when you try it, it hurts! Now, does the royal family still want to go to Xie Yunjian's territory?

The Queen Mother lived her heart, in Cui Heng's belly, and was afraid that Cui Heng would send a nameless anger on her head, and asked her, what is it like now?

Tell her how to know how to be good!

She only knew that it would be nice if Yu Qiushan was on the frontier. Yu Qiushan has been favored by the emperor all his life, and he is cautious, if he is still in the frontier, he probably won't be as domineering and uncontrollable as Xie Yunjian. However, Yu Qiushan's son Ah Yu had a problem, causing the imperial court to misdispatch and put an old general in the south, and he was forced to rebel...... It's all to blame Cui Heng for not handling it well!

That's right, that's right! If Cui Heng blames the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother will also have a cannonball to fight back. This made her feel a little more secure, but she also knew that it was not enough. She summoned all her think tanks to her side, so that she could take a closer look.

In other words, Princess Xueyi and the Three Emperors conspired with the Queen Mother.

Zhu Ying lazily lay on the pillow that was raised high, watching a few flashes and a few thunders outside, the clouds were low and depressed, it didn't rain, and the air was stuffy and panicked.

Today's supplies are gradually unable to keep up, the ice water is not ice enough, the spicy tang is not hot enough, and it is not numb enough. Thankfully, the pillows were still soft.

The yellow finch hanging under the porch, standing with his left foot, tilting his head to look at the water cup, did not drink, and stood on his right foot, twisting his neck, as if he also thought that the water was not good, not a new spring drawn from Yulong Mountain in the morning.

The rain was falling and falling. Huang Que'er stared at it, seeing that the water foam that had fallen down had splashed on it, so the palace people were busy to draw a curtain on it. This is something that has never happened before. If it had happened, the palace people would have been dragged down and killed! ――If you can't even take care of a bird, what's the use of keeping it?

I can't say anything now. The country is broken, let alone a bird?

The precocious chrysanthemums in the garden have just taken buds, fluttering and undulating under the wind and rain, the green leaves are draped, and the golden filaments have not yet bloomed, they are knocked down. The majesty of the rain for half an hour gradually stopped, Princess Xueyi came back tired under the service of the maid, replaced the clogs, put on soft-soled indoor shoes, the maid served the sweet soup with the right temperature in time, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Lezheng instructed that it should be prepared for the princess." ”

Princess Xueyi's expression was soothed.

She also changed her outer clothes, walked indoors, saw that the curtains were lowered, most of the palace candles were burned, and Zhu Ying lay on the pillow and fell asleep. (To be continued......)
