The eunuchs and palace maids walked out of the hall in fear, not daring to make a sound, for fear of angering the emperor again, and their lives might be lost today.

"Meet the Emperor," General Liu said as he walked over to the Emperor from the shadows.

"It's Liu Aiqing. Is there anything you'd like to say about this? The emperor said with a smile, which made General Liu get rid of some cold sweat behind his back.

So General Liu hurriedly knelt down and apologized, "It's the minister's miscalculation, I didn't expect King Ding to be so fateful and survive in such a situation." But he is not feeling well now, he is seriously injured, and it is still unknown whether he will survive. Chen thinks it's time to take advantage of this time to plan for the next step. ”

The emperor's face was a little better, and he let General Liu get up.

"This can't be blamed on Aiqing, if Duan Bailan died so easily, he wouldn't be the one who could cut off the head of the enemy army in the midst of thousands of troops." The Emperor laughed as if self-deprecatingly before continuing.

"But this person has always been arrogant, and the voice among the people is still so high, this person has to be removed. Aiqing understands the truth that the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. The emperor said meaningfully.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, this time, the ministers will come up with a foolproof plan." General Liu hurriedly said.

General Liu knew that this was not only talking about the king, but the emperor was also reminding him not to overshadow the master.

Just as General Liu was pondering, a voice suddenly interrupted his train of thought.

"Erchen has seen his father and General Liu." When General Liu saw it, it turned out that Xiao Heng, the seventh prince, was here. Hurriedly said, "The minister greets the Seventh Prince"

"General Liu doesn't have to be polite." Xiao Heng smiled at General Liu.

"The son came uninvited, and the father forgive me." Xiao Heng bowed slightly to the emperor.

"It's fine," the emperor smiled, and at this moment he was like a loving father.

Xiao Heng smiled, "Erchen has a plan. ”

Since the last military rations incident, Xiao Heng knew what the emperor and General Liu were doing, he also heard about the news, and knew that there was nothing to be done about the military rations, and he came up with it this day, a way to deal with Duan Bailan, it was just right at this moment.

"If Heng'er has any way, you might as well talk about it." The Emperor smiled.

"Erchen thinks that we can arrange some people to forge evidence of Duan Bailan's treason with the enemy. When these evidence comes out, they have to believe it even if they don't believe it. Duan Bailan's credibility among the people will be gone. Xiao Heng said, he said this with a little smile, and he could hear that he was still very interested in Duan Bailan.

The emperor and General Liu glanced at each other, and they both felt that this plan was feasible, why didn't they think of it before?

Looking at the emperor's smile, Xiao Heng knew that the two had agreed to this plan.

"Xiao Heng, I'll leave the matter of falsifying evidence to you." The emperor pondered for a moment and said, he could see Xiao Heng's hatred for Duan Bailan, and this plan was also proposed by him, so it shouldn't be too much of a problem to hand it over to Xiao Heng.

"It is an honor for my son to share the worries of my father." Xiao Heng smiled and looked at the two of them

"Then the minister will go down and prepare." ”

After the etiquette, Xiao Heng withdrew from the main hall, and as for other things, it was naturally the two old foxes who were here to discuss.

……

On this day, when Liu Nianru came to look for Duan Bailan, she found that Duan Bailan's face was extremely solemn.

"What's wrong?" Liu Nianru couldn't help but worry, "Is it the barbarians who are going to attack again?" "After all, the last time the Northern Army narrowly won, although it has recovered some vitality this day, if it is going to be a big battle, it will definitely not be as good as the barbarian army.

Liu Nianru's speculation is not unreasonable.

But Duan Bailan just shook her head, didn't say anything, and handed Liu Nianru a letter.

Liu Nianru looked at Duan Bailan and unfolded the letter.

This is a letter from Jingshi, which was sent by Duan Bailan's people in Jingshi, to the effect that the emperor conspired with General Liu to plant people in Dingwang's mansion and forged a series of evidence to blame Duan Bailan for collaborating with the enemy and treason.

After reading the letter, Liu Nianru also looked complicated and didn't know what to do.

Liu Nianru looked at Duan Bailan, he frowned, and there was still a trace of sadness in his eyes.

"Why?" Duan Bailan asked.

"Duan Bailan." Liu Nianru called, and she threw Duan Bailan towards herself.

"He's already so ruthless, why don't we just do what he wants." Liu Nianru's words seemed cold, but this was the result of Liu Nianru's careful consideration.

"If one of us is alive, this conspiracy will never stop, and only the death of one can end it." Liu Nianru said.

Duan Bailan paused, he knew that what Liu Nianru said was reasonable, but his heart ...... It's a little painful.

"Duan Bailan, I have always been by your side, no matter what choice you make, I will accompany you." Liu Nianru took the initiative to reach out and hug Duan Bailan.

Duan Bailan felt this sudden warmth, and felt a little sour in his heart.

"When this battle is over, we will go back and take the throne of the old horseman." Duan Bailan put her head on Liu Nianru's shoulder and said softly.

I've given you so many chances, but you're still insisting on killing me, so I can't blame me for what I did.

Don't you care much about your throne? Then I'll take it, hehe......

"Okay, I'll accompany you." Liu Nianru smiled, she reached out and patted Duan Bailan's back, as if she was coaxing a child, but this made Duan Bailan very useful.

At least...... He still has Liu Nianru, doesn't he?

……

Capital.

Today's morning dynasty is extremely lively, all because of the Prime Minister's words.

Above the early court, after the eunuch's shrill voice shouted, "If there is something to do, there is nothing to retreat from", the prime minister stood up.

He bowed to the emperor in a regular manner, and then spoke, and his opening could directly make this early dynasty blow up.

"The minister has something to do."

"Prime Minister, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

"The minister received a piece of news yesterday, and he was uneasy, and the minister was sincerely afraid all night, and finally felt that it was better for His Majesty to guide this news."

"Whew

What's the news. ”

"The minister heard that His Royal Highness King Ding was collaborating with the enemy and treason, and I hope that His Majesty will investigate thoroughly, if it is His Royal Highness King Ding, it is better to return his innocence, if not, there is no ......" The prime minister's words did not speak again, but everyone present knew the meaning of his words.

Collaborating with the enemy and treason, that is a great crime.

"Prime Minister, are you guilty?" The emperor narrowed his eyes, and his majestic voice resounded through the hall.

"The minister is terrified." The prime minister knelt down, "This matter is a big matter and must be thoroughly investigated." I also want to give an explanation to the people outside. ”

Although the prime minister knelt, his words were sonorous and powerful, not at all like panic.
