Chapter 240: Hold your ground

The next day, it was dawn, and King Ning's mansion was very busy. After Liu Xun, the king of Ning, drank the medicine of Liu Xingzhi's decoction, he gradually came to his senses, but every time he woke up, he was accompanied by vomiting symptoms, and he fainted again after vomiting for a while, so the family was busy before and after, some invited the imperial doctor, some sent basins and face towels, and some went around to report the good news, so a large group of relatives had already gathered outside King Ning's house. Although it was not yet dawn, Liu Xun had only woken up for more than half an hour, and some officials rushed to hear the wind and rushed to Ning Wangfu to greet him. There were also some Beijing officials who were late and had smaller positions, all standing outside the gate of the palace and waiting, so Xining Street was already overcrowded in the morning.

The news of King Ning's awakening was soon sent to Emperor Han, and Emperor Han was even more ecstatic when he learned about it, and set a day off for a day off, and drove to King Ning's mansion.

When Emperor Han came to King Ning's mansion in a car, it was already hour, but unfortunately Liu Xun fainted after vomiting, and Emperor Han was anxiously pacing back and forth in front of Liu Xun's bed. Everyone waited for about half an hour, and Liu Xunfu coughed a few times before he slowly woke up. Liu Xun saw his father waiting in person, he was surprised and delighted, and he was about to kneel down to his father to ask for peace while holding his sick body. Emperor Han smiled and helped Liu Xun to sit on the bed again, instructed a few words, chatted for a while, his heart was warm and cool for a while, and his eyes were still rolling with tears from time to time.

Seeing that his father was so emotional, Liu Xun hurriedly asked, "Father, do you have anything to say?" I haven't seen you for a few days, why do you look so haggard? ”

Emperor Han shook his head and sighed, "Inquiry! Don't you know what has happened these days? ”

"Erchen only remembers that on the day of the Shangyuan Festival, after Erchen came back from the banquet in the East Palace, he felt unbearable abdominal pain for some reason, and then fainted, and then he didn't know what happened later."

"Liu Yan poisoned the wine and food at the banquet, do you know?"

"The prince was poisoned?" Liu Xun replied casually, as if he had guessed what Emperor Han would ask, but he still pretended not to know why, "How is this possible?" The prince has always been virtuous and kind, how could he do the thing of poisoning his uncle. ”

Liu Xingzhi hurriedly answered: "Father, you don't know that the reason why the prince poisoned you is to clear the obstacles and ...... power. Liu Xingzhi was about to continue, but was glanced at by his father, and then retracted his neck in a daze.

Emperor Han sighed lightly and didn't want to talk about it anymore, "Since you have woken up, you can rest at home." I'll come back to see you in a few days. ”

Liu Xun also wanted to struggle to see off the emperor, but was stopped by the Han Emperor, so he ordered his two sons to bid farewell on his behalf. After the two sons came back after sending the emperor back, they reported the situation to their father in the past few days, Liu Xun listened, there was still a trace of surprise in his heart, he didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and now the only thing to watch out for is what Lu Zuo said about Queen Li.

It seems that the emperor is very happy about the awakening of King Ning, and it seems that Liu Xun must be indispensable for the position of the crown prince. Xun Yu's father and son discussed in the study of their own mansion, and began to hesitate whether they should fight for Liu Yan again and rescue him, of course, if they want to save him, it is very risky, once the matter is revealed, they may still be involved, but if they stand by and watch, they may also be suppressed by Liu Xun.

Xun Yu said: "The current situation, according to my father's opinion, why don't we go to King Ning!" Relying on our many years of operation in the court, King Ning will not dare to underestimate us. ”

"No!" Xun Mou frowned and shook his head and replied resolutely, "Even if Liu Xun is willing to accept us now, if Liu Xun really ascends the throne as emperor one day, he will definitely settle accounts in the future." ”

The father and son fell silent again, they were all firm in their minds to let themselves be killed, maybe they had to find another way, maybe they could see a glimmer of life, and they would like to be the king or defeated, so why not give him a try.

The prison of Dali Temple is heavily guarded, and since the reign of the Han Emperor, all the criminals who are imprisoned in the prison have been corrected without exception. The site of the prison is located in the south of the Dali Temple, it is a compound with three entrances, but the prison where the prisoners are imprisoned are all located in the dark room below, the prison is surrounded by walls on three sides, one side is surrounded by iron pillars, the cell is dark and damp, messy, many smells are intertwined, and the smell is stinking.

Liu Yan's scattered hair covered those desperate eyes, and the shackles on his hands and feet were very heavy for him, so he leaned on the wooden bed and remained motionless, so he felt a little more comfortable. Liu Yan has only been detained for a day, but he seems to feel that he has been in it for several years, the long and torturous wait, so that he is very confused about whether time really exists, in the several hours of being detained, he has calculated dozens of situations, and now what he needs most is the help of Xun Yu's father and son, as long as their father and son are willing to help, then even if he is in prison, there will be a chance to turn over......

"Your Highness......"

Liu Yan's body shook, a familiar voice passed through his ears, and as soon as he turned around, he saw a familiar figure standing outside the prison door, and the person who came was his father-in-law, Xu Bingde, the secretary of the military department. Liu Yan held the heavy shackles and walked very hard to come to the prison door, the eyes that were no longer majestic, Chu Chu looked at Xu Bingde pitifully and said, "Father-in-law, is it really you?" Is it really you? Why did you come to see me? Then he hurriedly asked, "Xu Fang, are they okay?" ”

"Fang'er, they have already received the old man's mansion to live, Your Highness can rest assured!" Xu Bingde said, his eyes were already red, and he turned his head with a light sigh, although Liu Yan is a royal prince, he is still a descendant after all! It's so unfair to let him bear so much at once. After Xu Bingde calmed down for a while, he turned around and replied, "Hey! This is a prison, no one can come in without the emperor's will, and the old man has to go through a lot of trouble to get in. ”

Liu Yan paused for a moment, "Then how do you get in?" ”

"The old man also asked the emperor to come."

"How is this possible? The emperor is angry now, how can he let you come to see me. ”

Xu Bingde's face showed a hint of cunning, and he replied with a smile: "Your Highness! There is still a turning point in your case. ”

"This ......," Liu Yan pondered for a moment, "You mean King Ning is awake?" ”

"Hmm!" Xu Bingde nodded, "Otherwise, the old man wouldn't be here now." ”

After Liu Yan confirmed the news, he had mixed feelings in his heart, and asked pitifully: "Father-in-law, did you say that the imperial grandfather would pardon me?" ”

Although Xu Bingde didn't have much confidence in his heart, he still pretended to smile confidently: "The emperor has always remembered the old love, and you are the orphan of the late prince, how can the emperor be willing to let you suffer!" Now that King Ning is safe and sound, the emperor will have the steps not to kill you, and in a few days, when he thinks of your wellness, he will definitely restore all your positions. Xu Bingde saw that Liu Yan continued to bow his head and remain silent, and after looking around, he lowered his voice and said, "Your Highness, just listen to me, you must not move, Liu Xu, the king of Wei, is an example." If Liu Xu can endure his temperament, maybe he is the most trusted person now! ”
