066 The Beginning of the Storm (1)

At this moment, in the Taihe Palace, Xiao Ci came in a hurry after receiving the news, Xiao Jingyan's lips on the bed were bloodless, his eyes were blank, the young emperor was suddenly at a loss like a child, and he snorted as soon as the imperial doctor moved.

Who knew he almost died!

Seeing this scene, Xiao Ci passed with a cold face: "Your Majesty, what's wrong?" ”

Hearing his voice, Xiao Jingyan was inexplicably relieved, and shouted with a sad face: "...... Uncle Huang. ”

"It's okay", Xiao Ci squatted down: "It's good that the emperor is awake, take care of it with peace of mind, and I will deal with things outside." ”

"Hmm", Xiao Jingyan nodded.

Suddenly, he regretted his previous thoughts, more than a dozen letters a day, more than twenty letters were all accusing him of being the imperial uncle, accusing him of being powerful, and he also wanted to unite the ministers to collect the power of Xiao Ci a little bit, and within a few years, he would definitely be able to put this imperial uncle in the air.

But now it seems that he is still too young, he thinks too simply, the huge government and the opposition, where he can point fingers alone, without Xiao Ci, I am afraid that this court will be chaotic, but .........

Xiao Jingyan shook his head and closed his eyes in reassurance.

At this moment, outside the Taihe Palace, it has been surrounded by water, and Chang Qingfeng, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, stood in front of the Taihe Palace, and shouted: "Chang Qingfeng asks to see the emperor." ”

Li Dequan trembled and came out: "What is Commander Chang doing?" The emperor is resting, if he disturbs the emperor, he will definitely blame you! ”

Chang Qingfeng frowned: "When the minister heard that the emperor was assassinated, he was worried about the emperor's safety, and he was afraid that the emperor would be framed by a traitor, and he would definitely see the emperor today." ”

"Oops", Li Dequan waved his hand, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead: "What is this thing that Commander Chang said, where are there any traitors, the emperor is good, you go back quickly." ”

With a cold snort, the hilt of the sword in Chang Qingfeng's hand trembled slightly, the scabbard faded, and he raised his head: "My father-in-law insists on blocking it, don't blame me for breaking through!" ”

He lowered his eyes and raised his arms and shouted: "Catch the traitor and protect the emperor's safety!" ”

"Yesβ€”β€”!"

The Praetorian Army behind him echoed in response.

Li Dequan's legs trembled, his lips turned white, and he spoke incoherently: "It's the other way around, it's ...... the other way around."

At the last moment, the door of the Taihe Hall suddenly opened, and Xiao Ci stepped out, with long eyebrows and straight eyebrows, lacquer eyes like ink, and a snow white silver silk soft robe, which was blown up by a cool breeze that passed through the Taihe Palace.

It is clear that he is in danger, alone and single-handedly, facing the hundred people under the high ranks, and the momentum of the hundred people is not as good as him.

Chang Qingfeng is happy, the time has come, and there will be no regent above this court today!

He stepped forward and pretended to bow his hand, pretending to be surprised: "Why is the prince here?" ”

Xiao Cimo's eyes were solemn: "What do you say? ”

Chang Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, and seemed to suddenly realize: "The traitor who held the emperor hostage is not the prince, and the person who is planning to rebel is also the prince!" ”

Suddenly, the door of the entire Taihe Hall seemed to be on the verge of erupting, and Li Dequan was so frightened that he ran to the back and didn't dare to probe.

After a while, I heard Xiao Ci speak: "Chang Qingfeng, the first emperor is especially important to you in his second life, and he told you to protect the palace wall at the end of his life, but I didn't know that you were such a person who didn't know what to do, and you should be punished!" ”

"Hahaha......", Chang Qingfeng not only did not panic, but also laughed: "Okay, the talk-talking minister is not the opponent of the prince, no matter what, the prince of the Taihe Palace will not be able to get out today, after all, the world knows that the regent is in charge of the government and the opposition, and controls the government, and his heart is clear, sooner or later, he will rebel, the plan fails, and it is understandable that he died under ten thousand swords." ”

In an instant, Xiao Ci's body was as cold as ice, and he twisted his eyebrows and asked: "So in order to frame this king, you can use the emperor's life as bait?" ”

Chang Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding the meaning of Xiao Ci's words, but when he was delaying time, he didn't say much, and directly ordered the forbidden army behind him to surround him, and shouted: "Take down the regent!" ”

"Look for death!" With a muffled snort, Xiao Cijian's eyebrows raised slightly, and he flew down the high ranks, his figure was solemn, and the first few forbidden soldiers were killed in an instant.

But after all, the other party is a large number of people, Chang Qingfeng once fought with Xiao Ci, knowing his martial arts, he did not attack, let people maneuver, and planned to use the wheel battle to consume a waste, and then take him down in one fell swoop!

But the sky is not what people want, when the two parties are entangled, suddenly the bluestone bricks on the soles of his feet shook slightly, Chang Qingfeng turned back suddenly, and saw the same costume Praetorian Guards coming with murderous spirit, and surrounded them directly without saying a word.

The other party is obviously far superior to them in terms of numbers, Chang Qingfeng took a closer look, aren't these the forbidden troops he asked to guard the periphery before!

Xie Liang, who was in the lead, strode forward and knelt on the spot: "The minister is late, the prince forgives the sin." ”

Xiao Ci withdrew from the encirclement, his snow-white robe was splashed with a few drops of blood, and he became more and more indifferent, and he said in a deep voice: "Get up." ”

"Yes", Xie Liang's heart was also cold at the moment, if he came a moment late, I am afraid he would have to take a big responsibility.

Looking at the other party's familiar face, Chang Qingfeng finally sensed that something was wrong, as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his toes, and he shouted: "Xie Liang, what are you doing!" ”

This person followed him all day long, and because of trust, he gave him the task of guarding the periphery, but he didn't expect to meet at the gate of the Taihe Palace.

Glancing at Chang Qingfeng with disdain, Xie Liang said shamelessly: "Chang Commander is good and majestic. ”

Chang Qingfeng choked, reacted that he had been calculated, turned his head to look at Xiao Ci, his eyes were as wide as copper bells: "The prince is so scheming, but the minister doesn't know that Xie Liang is the prince's person." ”

Facing him calmly, Xiao Ci said: "Xie Liang is not the person of this king. ”

"It's all at this time, the prince is still pretending to be confused with me", Chang Qingfeng smiled bitterly and turned to Xie Liang: "He is not the prince's person, would he come to make such a move today?" ”

Looking at Chang Qingfeng with the eyes of a fool, Xie Liang bowed his hand to Xiao before saying: "The commander of the forbidden army has always only believed in tiger talismans, and Chang Commander has not forgotten it." ”

As soon as these words came out, Chang Qingfeng was even more incredulous, and sneered: "If you want to cover it, the only tiger talisman is now in my hand, could it be that I asked you to rush over with someone?" ”

Xie Liang: "Do you need me to remind Commander Chang, but there is never more than that half of the tiger talisman that orders the forbidden army?" ”

Half a Tiger Talisman!

The long sword in Chang Qingfeng's hand was almost unstable, and he shook his head again and again: "Impossible!" No way! ”

How so?

Before the emperor died, he divided the tiger talisman of the Praetorian Guard into two pieces, one in the hands of the queen mother, when the queen mother's dementia was not very serious, and the prince was young, so she let her protect the palace wall, and the other half was buried in the imperial tomb with him.

Although these two pieces of tiger talisman are each half, the effect is very different, the queen mother's hand can mobilize the palace guards, but once you see the piece that enters the imperial tomb, the half of the queen mother's hand is useless.

It is said that the tiger talisman has been in the hands of the queen mother for so many years, but it is no different from the emperor's hands, just taking into account the face of some courtiers, the emperor is temporarily placed in Jingren Palace, and the emperor can still take it at any time at a critical time.

But isn't the other piece already in the imperial tomb!

How could it be in Xiao Ci's hands!

Chang Qingfeng suppressed his voice: "I didn't expect it...... I didn't expect it...... The emperor actually gave you the tiger talisman! But he also tricked us into entering the imperial tomb, and the first emperor really valued the prince. ”

Too lazy to talk to him, Xiao Ci raised his voice: "Take it!" ”

Xie Liang frowned, and immediately put Chang Qingfeng in place, Chang Qingfeng hung his head and struggled, his face was pale: "What can I do if I am arrested, the four palace gates are all our people, even if the prince kills me today, you still can't get out!" ”

Li Song made a plan, Yan Wan was guarding outside, with today's regent wedding, all the courtiers would go to the palace, Dongping Lane was one and a half hours away from the nearest north gate of the palace, and they only needed to drag it out.

At the wedding banquet, everyone noticed that something was wrong, and the old antiques led by Wu Qingwen would definitely enter the palace together, and then Xiao Ci had already fallen into their hands, and the emperor saw that the regent was gone, so why not!

But until now, Chang Qingfeng was a little worried, it stands to reason that he didn't pass on the news, and the people on the periphery should have noticed that something was wrong and rushed in with someone, but how could it be......

He was lucky, and saw a pair of silk soap boots stopped in front of him, Xiao Ci was looking down at him, and the cold voice fluttered all the way down from the top of his head: "Commander Chang is waiting for someone?" The hour has passed, and the people who are waiting for the commander are afraid that they will not be able to come, but if you really want to see them, this king will send them to you. ”

"......" Facing the deep and determined pupils, Chang Qingfeng shuddered violently, and he began to panic: "What do you mean by this, prince?" ”

"Assassinate the emperor, you are extremely bold", Xiao Ci said in a deep voice: "Escort down, lock up." ”

Chang Qingfeng shouted: "Xiao Ci, what nonsense are you talking about!" The one we are going to kill is you, it's you! ”

Waiting for the screams to go away, looking at the mess in front of the Taihe Palace, Xiao Ci frowned, turned around and entered the hall.

"How is the emperor?"

The imperial physician, who was always by the emperor's side, hurriedly explained: "Lord, the emperor has injured his muscles and bones, and I am afraid that he will have to recuperate for at least ten days and half a month." ”

"What about the Queen Mother?"

"Don't worry, the queen mother is fine, but she has a little incense."

"Hmm", Xiao Ci nodded, glanced at Xiao Jingyan, who had his eyes slightly closed and his brows furrowed on the dragon couch, and whispered a few words to the people around him, before turning around and leaving.

A turmoil came quietly, on the way back, Xiao Ci kept thinking, today's things are full of mistakes and omissions, if it is really planned to kill him, it will inevitably be too sloppy.

can see Chang Qingfeng's sworn appearance, and it doesn't look like a temporary action.

What went wrong......

Seeing that the sun is setting, there is still a person in the palace wearing a wedding dress waiting for him to return today, although Mu An has many suspicions, Xiao Ci still has no intention of involving her in these disputes.

"Driving ......"

The Regent's chariot was heading back.

And at this hour, the front court of the palace was silent, the bright moon listened to the wind, and the spiced and anise had already given up persuasion, standing stupidly on the side, watching their princess heroic, stepping on the stool with one foot, wantonly carrying the wine jug, and looking at the groggy group of people opposite!

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

If their prince comes back, I'm afraid ......
