In the evening, Pingjing City seems to be a little quieter than in the past except for the heavy rain that has been going on all day. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The departure of a Ming king seems to be unable to bring any waves to the city at all.

The people still continue their own rhythm of life, and the majestic palace city is still standing majestically in the rain curtain.

Emperor Dingwu was standing at the window of the study with his hands behind his back at this moment, his eyes quietly looking at the rain curtain under the dim sky.

He had been standing for a while, seeing the sky darkening a little bit, he still couldn't help but look into the distance with a hint of complexity in his eyes, and muttered in his mouth: "The news should be coming back soon......

Even if an emperor's heart is as firm as iron, but if he wants to kill his son with his own hands, he still can't do it, and he is completely indifferent.

It's just that this distracting thought only flashed in my heart, and then disappeared and re-established.

If King Ming's life can allow him to take one more step on the road to redeeming this thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, then why is he reluctant?

Turning around slowly, his face had regained his calmness, and he sat down again, no longer leaving the slightest sigh in his eyes, but slowly groaned, and began to think about what would happen after the news came back.

The black-clothed assassin was indeed sent by him, and these people were all elite dead soldiers secretly cultivated by the royal family, specializing in hiding in the shadows and doing some shady tasks.

According to their plan, for the sake of realism, leave no flaws.

Most of the black-clothed assassins will die in the fight with the soldiers, and then they will fight a decisive battle with the two guards of Emperor Dingwu, and the last two guards will show their might and kill most of the black-clothed assassins, but at the same time, the king of Ming will also be held hostage by the remaining black-clothed men.

And then there was a rush of pursuit, it was obvious that the royal family naturally could not let this assassination succeed, otherwise what would be the majesty?

Of course, the man in black couldn't escape in the end, but when he finally caught up with him, he had no way out, he tried to threaten King Ming's life, and after holding each other for a while, he revealed a flaw, and it turned out that the King Ming in his hand was transferred at some point!

The man in black killed himself, but King Ming disappeared without a trace, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead!

Was he picked up by his accomplices?

This is the greatest possible.

A large number of soldiers and horses arrived, closed the mountain all night, and searched continuously, but in the end, nothing was found.

Soon, news will come that several soldiers have mysteriously disappeared in the process of pursuit, and then, the search area will be immediately expanded, and the surrounding provinces will cooperate in the investigation.

Not long after, news came that several disappeared men had appeared in Dongshan Province, and that one of them resembled the king of Na Ming.

But it was only a flash, and then it disappeared again.

At this point, this brazen attack can be regarded as coming to an end, and then it has fallen into a long-term investigation.

Obviously, there is a traitor, and the inside and outside should work together to arrest King Ming!

As for why King Ming was arrested, it doesn't matter, what matters is who did it.

There is no doubt that it has to start with the disappeared soldiers, and from here it begins to implicate people from the country, from the bottom to the top, little by little, and continue to exchange blood!

……

Emperor Dingwu sat quietly in the study, the light and shadow flashed in his eyes, he had already begun to think about what position to give to whom, obviously, this time, it had been arranged, and he didn't think there would be any problems.

After all, no one would have thought that the king of the Ming Dynasty would be assassinated in the Gyeonggi territory, and even after Shangqingshan had just done this, who would have the courage to move his tiger whiskers, so this time there was no intention, and the arrangement was so appropriate, it would definitely succeed.

At this moment, there was a slight sound of footsteps.

The chamberlain bowed and appeared at the door, glancing at the bright yellow figure who was contemplating, and did not dare to disturb loudly, before he came closer, he bowed sideways, and said in an extremely soft voice: "Your Majesty, are you still in the imperial study for dinner?" ”

When the words fell, Emperor Dingwu in front of him didn't raise his head, and there was no movement, as if he hadn't heard it at all.

Seeing this, the waiter didn't dare to make another sound, and bowed down and slowly retreated.

He knew that at this moment, where could His Majesty have the mind to eat, he must be thinking about the distant Ming King.

However, he didn't expect that just as he was about to leave the imperial study, Emperor Dingwu didn't know what he suddenly remembered, his eyes flickered, and he raised his head and asked, "Is the queen ready to eat?" ”

Empress?

The chamberlain paused, raised his head slightly, and looked at Emperor Dingwu in surprise.

I just saw the floating in the eyes of Emperor Dingwu, he followed Dingwu all his life, if you say who knows Dingwu best, he is definitely one.

At this time, I instantly realized in my heart, the matter of King Ming, His Majesty concealed the queen, and at this moment, King Ming is afraid that he has ......

His Majesty was ashamed of the queen after all, and he couldn't bear it anymore, so he hurriedly said: "There has been no food in the Niangniang Palace!" ”

"Well, let's put it on the shelf!" Emperor Dingwu's voice seemed to be a little low, but he didn't hesitate, got up directly, and walked towards the queen's palace.

……

The chamberlain did not guess wrong, at this moment, Dingwu did suddenly think of the queen.

For him, when the time comes to make a choice, he will not hesitate.

But he knows very well that for the queen, it may be difficult to accept, although King Ming is not very outstanding, and even extremely unbearable, but the queen is still affectionate to him because of many years of separation.

So this plan, he didn't dare to be known by the queen at all.

At this time, the news was about to come back, and the queen was afraid that it would be difficult for him to bear it, so he sighed in his heart and decided to accompany the queen.

……

"Your Majesty, do you know? Yesterday the emperor came to see me, but I was really surprised! The queen wore a golden hairpin and jade phoenix, and said with a smile on her face while serving vegetables for Dingwu.

At the dinner table, Dingwu knew that as long as he came, it would definitely be impossible to avoid mentioning King Ming, but as soon as he sat down, the queen mentioned King Ming, but it still made him feel a meal.

"Oh?" Ding Wu smiled, and said without missing a trace of abnormality on the surface: "The emperor has come to complain to you again?" ”

In fact, looking at the smile on the queen's face, he knew that this time might be a good thing, but he was still willing to ask.

"Sue?" The queen mother paused slightly, but then shook her head again and again and said: "Your Majesty, you didn't say it right this time, the emperor is actually very sensible, not only did he not complain." is still filial piety, last night, he knelt on the ground, no matter how he said it, he refused to get up, he had to treat my leg disease! ”

The old palace maid stood aside and waited, and when she glanced at the queen at this time, she knew that the queen would definitely not be able to help but praise King Ming to Her Majesty today.

Emperor Dingwu was really stunned this time, obviously not understanding: "He treated you for a leg disease?" ”

"Well, Your Majesty, you can't imagine it, the emperor is actually talented and smart, as early as when he was a child, he met a master of medicine and Taoism in the people, and learned the art of Qihuang, in time, it is impossible to say that the emperor can become a giant of medicine!" The queen's tone was brisk, and she was obviously very happy.

"Got to meet a master?" Emperor Dingwu's eyes sank suddenly, if it was usual, he would not interrupt the queen's interest, but today, he felt that the queen should be sobered up: "Queen, all the life tracks of the emperor before returning to the palace have been investigated in detail, how can there be any medical masters to accompany him, it is really full of nonsense!" I have long said that civil and martial arts are secondary, but character is a must, and you can't indulge the emperor too much! ”

Emperor Dingwu made a straight face, but he didn't want the queen to be affected in the slightest, but still smiled and groaned: "Your Majesty is angry, how can I not remember this, in fact, at the beginning, I didn't believe it, only when his filial piety was commendable, but Your Majesty, look at this ......"

The queen was not annoyed, put down the chopsticks in her hand, and took a small purse from herself.

"What's this?" Emperor Dingwu looked at the purse.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, you can't imagine what this thing is!" The queen is mysterious.

Carefully opened the purse, took out a folded piece of paper from it, and then opened it himself, and handed it to Ding Wudao: "Your Majesty, take a look, do you know who prescribed this medicine for me?" ”

This prescription, of course, is not the "poison prescription", but the prescription for external fumigation prescribed by King Ming.

"Huh, prescription? Well, this calligraphy has never been seen, which doctor is handwriting, excellent! Emperor Dingwu took it, and at a glance, he nodded in approval.

"Look down and find out!" The queen laughed.

Emperor Dingwu smiled, and looked directly at the bottom, generally the prescription will have a doctor's name.

But when he saw the bottom, he was stunned on the spot: "Mo Bai? ”

Immediately, he looked up in amazement and stared at the queen, but saw the queen smile and said: "Your Majesty can't imagine it, this is the prescription that the emperor wrote for me in front of me last night. ”

"Queen, this word, the emperor really wrote it in front of you?" Emperor Dingwu was obviously a little unconvinced.

Now the queen was a little displeased, and said, "Your Majesty, does this not believe in the emperor or me?" ”

"Don't worry, the queen, it's just that the queen should remember that just a month ago, Dr. Zhou asked me to resign, and he didn't want to teach the emperor anymore...... "Emperor Dingwu, the meaning is very clear, he can't even recognize all the words, how can he talk about writing a prescription, or such a good word?"

When the queen heard this, her face sank slightly, and she was silent for a moment before she said: "Your Majesty, the emperor has long been proficient in literature, but in the past two years, I have often punished him for this, but he would rather bear it than never reveal it...... He still doesn't like this palace! ”

Emperor Dingwu was stunned again when he heard it, how could he not hear what the queen meant, and King Ming would be clumsy?

Suddenly, there seemed to be a flash of light in his mind, it was yesterday, King Ming fainted at the door of the imperial study, and when he suddenly woke up, he and King Ming looked at each other, which was a look that he had never found in the eyes of the emperor.

So clear and pure, you can see at a glance that people are not stupid!

He looked at the square again, and for some reason in his heart, he also felt that something was wrong, but then he suppressed it, even if all this was true, it didn't make any sense, he just smiled slightly, and said softly: "If the emperor really has this talent, it is excellent!" ”

The queen's interest was not high at this time, and she nodded lightly and said: "Your Majesty, I have thought twice, since the emperor is interested in the way of Qihuang, although he is extremely talented, he is still young, and please choose a Master for him to accompany him and teach him carefully!" ”

Emperor Dingwu really can't take it at the moment, he can be extremely strong when he treats everyone in the world, but the queen, he owes his life.

I'm thinking about how to respond.

Outside the door, there was a sudden sound of footsteps, and it was obvious that someone was coming quickly.

At this moment, Emperor Dingwu's heart was indeed rarely nervous, and he knew that the news was coming.

The queen also raised her head, looked out, and saw that it was His Majesty's close attendant, who was running towards this side very quickly at this moment, obviously in a hurry.

A hint of loss flashed in her phoenix eyes, although His Majesty has always treated her very well, but in fact, since Mo Bai was born and she suffered from a leg disease, Emperor Dingwu didn't come to her many times a month, so it was rare to have a chance for the two to get together.

However, as a queen, she knows how to be the mother of the world, the loss fades, and her face calms down.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty......" The waiter's body trembled slightly, bowed his head and saluted, and then looked at the queen: "Queen Mother!" ”

The voice trembled, and one could hear the irrepressible panic.

Emperor Dingwu's face was calm, he thought that the news had finally come, and asked softly, "Why are you so flustered, what's the matter?" ”

The queen also stared at it, this person has followed His Majesty for many years, and he is by no means an unstable person.

The chamberlain slowly looked up, and the flickering surprise in his eyes continued.

When Emperor Dingwu saw his expression, he said in his heart: "This old boy is really similar!" ”

The chamberlain bowed his head slightly and said, "Your Majesty, there is something important to report to you over there in Jinhai!" ”

"Say!" As soon as he heard Jinhai, he knew that there must be no doubt about it.

Dingwu didn't leave, just listened here.

"Your Majesty, the concubine should step aside first!" The queen didn't let the chamberlain be embarrassed, said softly, and then nodded to the old palace maid.

Emperor Dingwu shook his head: "It's okay, this period of time is busy with state affairs, and it is rare to have the opportunity to dine with the queen, what is the big deal with this old slave?" No need to shy away! ”

After speaking, he glanced at the waiter and said, "Say it!" ”

The chamberlain couldn't help it, and suddenly he was stunned again, King Ming was not dead, why didn't he dare to report it in front of the queen, he was too shocked, he was dizzy, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, King Ming's carriage and horse were assassinated just now, thirty miles away from Jinhai, and ......"

"What do you say? Assassination? Before Emperor Dingwu could react, he only heard a coquettish cry and suddenly startled.

Emperor Dingwu's face immediately turned pale, and his eyes burst into flames: "Say it clearly!" ”

Seeing the appearance of Emperor Dingwu, the inner servant was complicated and ruthless, but he had to hurriedly say: "In the evening, when the Ming King's carriage and horse pass ......."

With his narration, the scene at that time was restored almost bit by bit.

In this hall, the queen and Dingwu, their faces changed little by little with the situation at that time.

Especially Emperor Dingwu, when he heard that far more than a group of people were moving, his body was immediately shocked, how could he not have expected that there was a problem in the link.

And the queen heard that the soldiers were killed, and when King Ming encountered a life and death crisis, her face turned completely white.

And at this critical moment, His Royal Highness actually snatched a knife to kill people in a square inch, and with a knife, three men in black fell to the ground and died...... Six more rushed towards His Highness at this moment...... His Highness made a brazen move, and he faced all the enemies alone, and killed them all in an instant...... It was only at this time that the people present at that time discovered that His Highness had actually entered the hall and achieved the realm of a martial arts master! There is a division that competes with His Highness...... His Highness fought the Taoist master with the sword in his bare hands, and killed him with the last punch......"

I don't know when it started, Emperor Dingwu was no longer silent, he just stared at the face of the inner servant and didn't say a word.

The queen didn't speak again for a while, and even the old palace maid's breathing was suppressed at this time, and only the voice of the chamberlain echoed in the room.

In fact, from the moment she heard about the realm of the grandmaster, even the queen had to have a flash of confusion in her eyes, and her first reaction was not joy, but dazed.

Because of this moment, even she had to admit that the person described in the mouth of the chamberlain didn't seem to know her......

The chamberlain sweated on his forehead, he knew it was hard to believe, and he didn't believe it himself.

But he had to believe it, he glanced at Emperor Dingwu, and his heart was a little empty, but he had to continue: "His Royal Highness finally refused to be escorted by anyone, got on Tiexiong's horse, and galloped away with the two of them, leaving only a word!" ”

The room was still quiet.

The voice of Emperor Dingwu seemed to calm down, and he slowly spoke: "What words?" ”

His Highness identified it as Zhang ...... Zhang Bangli, Chief Zhang colluded with Zhang Danshi to conspire to kill his life, and then colluded with others to openly assassinate and rebel, ordered two guards to take him down on the spot, implored His Majesty to strictly investigate and make decisions for him, and said that in order to prevent another assassination, he went to Mingzhu on his own, and did not accept the protection of the guards along the way! ”

………………………………………………

………………

Emperor Dingwu stood in the dark night, already motionless for half a while.

The chamberlain was standing behind him, but he didn't dare to make a sound, he knew that it would be difficult for His Majesty to let go of his heart at this time!

In fact, at this time, Emperor Dingwu, just like Zhang Bangli when he saw that moment, he personally planned and prepared to take the life of King Ming, but in the end he found that everything he did looked so stupid.

"How?" After a long time, Emperor Dingwu let out a long sigh and said softly.

The corners of the waiter's mouth opened slightly, but he seemed to be a little afraid to speak.

"Say!" Emperor Dingwu had his back to him, but his voice was unquestionable.

"After Zhang Danshi was taken down, he didn't resist, he confessed something." The waiter bowed his head and said.

"Sure enough, it's him!" Emperor Dingwu couldn't hear the meaning in his mouth.

"Zhang Danshi said that he was originally going to notify Shangqingshan and the Lin family, but after learning that Shangqingshan took nine Guiyuan Dan to forgive King Ming for accidentally hurting King Ming, he knew that Shangqingshan would never dare to kill King Ming again, so he only notified the Lin family, because they learned from General Manager Zhang that the Lin family wanted to marry Shangqingshan, so they must hope that His Royal Highness King Ming would die!" The waiter said slowly.

"Why did he do it? The emperor has never had a grudge against him, so why did he have to put the emperor to death? Emperor Dingwu continued to ask.

"Because he lied, his medicine stone actually failed to stimulate the potential of King Ming, he was afraid that Your Majesty would be held accountable, and he didn't dare to tell the truth, but in his heart he was not sure that His Royal Highness King Ming would be able to live for two days, and even he couldn't accurately see that once King Ming experienced the chariot and horse, he could still hold on to it until he walked out of the capital, so he informed the Lin family, as long as the Lin family participated, no matter what way, then if King Ming died before he finally arrived at your planned place, you would not find him in the end." The chamberlain replied.

Emperor Dingwu turned around slowly, his eyes staring at the inner servant: "He has diagnosed the pulse of King Ming several times, will he not know that King Ming is a grandmaster?" How can you think that King Ming will die? ”

The chamberlain was also puzzled, but he could only say: "He said that he had given King Ming several times to renew his life, and if King Ming had internal breath in his body, he would inevitably find it, but in fact he didn't find anything." But ......"

"Huh?"

He said, but he did find out that King Ming was indeed strange, and the medicine stone did not work that day was one of them! Second, King Ming seems to have secretly warned him to tell the truth! Third, when King Ming finally bowed down to you and left that day, he couldn't do it according to his physical state at that time, and there must have been severe pain in his body, but King Ming didn't react at all on his face. The chamberlain continued: "Zhang Danshi said that he had thought about it carefully later, but he couldn't think of why, but he had a suspicion, he felt that King Ming must have known in advance about Chief Zhang's plan to kill him. ”

Rao is Emperor Dingwu, his mind is like iron, at this moment, he still can't help it, and his whole body trembled suddenly.

Lao Tzu killed his son, Emperor Dingwu dared to do it, but he never dared to let others know.

The chamberlain didn't wait for him to ask, and had already taken the initiative to say: "Zhang Danshi said that after King Ming took the medicine stone before, the residual vitality in his body should have been completely burned, but the strange thing is that King Ming not only did not do this, but his original state of death seemed to have a resurgence again, Zhang Danshi felt that his bowl of medicine at that time must have been moved in advance. , and when he was boiling medicine, King Ming's subordinates happened to guard the medicinal soup for him for a while. And since then, King Ming seems to have secretly warned him twice, asking him to tell His Majesty that he is still alive and will not necessarily die. In the end, seeing that he was unwilling, he even wanted to change him in front of His Majesty, and another imperial doctor would diagnose his pulse......"

Emperor Dingwu listened to these words, closed his eyes slightly, he remembered that Mo Bai was going to change Zhang Danshi at that time, but because he didn't want superfluous people to know about it, he refused him without thinking.

"To sum up, Zhang Danshi thinks that His Royal Highness must have known something in advance!" The chamberlain whispered.

"Is there any whereabouts of King Ming?" Emperor Dingwu didn't ask about this matter again, but lowered his eyes slightly.

The chamberlain shook his head: "When King Ming left, he didn't let people follow, and no one dared to follow him at that time, after that, let's go to investigate again, only to know that he has entered Jinhai City, because he can't send troops to search on a large scale, so there is no news for the time being." ”

"Hmm!" Emperor Dingwu slowly exhaled a breath, and finally said, "After Chief Zhang comes back, let him come to see me immediately." ”

After speaking, he waved his hand and stopped talking.

The chamberlain went out, and after Emperor Dingwu was silent alone for a long time, two words came out in the room: "Lin family!" ”

This time, the Lin family really committed his rebellion, Shangqing Mountain dared to make a move, and his Lin family actually dared to do it......

……

Lin House.

With such a big news, it is naturally impossible for Lin Huayao not to get it.

At this time, his face couldn't calm down for half a while, and he looked at Chu Ruocai with a bitter face in front of him in a daze, and only after a long time did he start to speak: "You mean, King Ming is not only not dying, but also a talented martial arts master, who shot out and beheaded all of us, and even Daoist Liu was killed by him?" ”

Every time he said a word, his face turned ugly.

Chu Ruo knew that it would be difficult for the adult to accept it, in fact, he was the same, but in the end he could only nod and say, "My lord, it was Chu who miscalculated...... We've been tricked! ”

Lin Huayao closed his eyes slightly: "Scheme? ”

"I'm afraid the royal family has already set up a cage waiting for us to get into, and they actually used assassination methods to dispel our last suspicions, causing us to finally do it."

"Eliminate all traces, and make sure that we are not involved!" Lin Huayao suddenly opened his eyes, and the deepest light bloomed in his eyes, staring at Chu Ruocai.

Chu Ruocai's heart tightened, and he hurriedly nodded and said: "Don't worry, my lord, fortunately, we went around in a circle, and finally pushed everything on Tiexiong, even if the royal family knew that it was us, there was no evidence!" ”

"Tiexiong, is it still useful to mention Tiexiong now?" Lin Huayao's eyes lowered slightly, and he didn't get angry anymore, but said calmly.

It is estimated that the whole world knows that Tie Xiong blocks the sword for King Ming, and King Ming only believes in Tie Xiong.

"That's okay, the whole world only knows that those people are playing the banner of Tiexiong, even if it is not Tiexiong, it is also the work of Tiexiong's senior brothers, after all, there is a turn of Ning'er's affairs, and on the surface, they still did it, and it has nothing to do with us." Chu Ruocai said.

Lin Huayao nodded slightly and remained silent.

However, Chu Ruocai wiped the fine sweat on his forehead at this time and breathed a sigh of relief, but in fact, he didn't know that Lin Huayao, who was sitting opposite him, was not really persuaded by him at this time, in fact, far more pessimistic than him, he knew Dingwu too well.

"The dynasty can't stay anymore, otherwise there will be changes!" His eyes flashed with a burst of essence, and he secretly made a decision in his heart, but he raised his head and said, "Okay, pay close attention to the situation, and don't let Dingwu climb on me." ”

……
