He didn't have a temper with Shangguan Beitang at all: "But what is the use of me wanting your loyalty? ”

Shangguan Beitang knelt on the ground and didn't say a word, he also wanted to give the emperor a piece of sincerity! But what do you get in exchange?

It was the ministers' step-by-step compulsion, the emperor's compromise and betrayal, and the disappointment after his endless waiting.

Perhaps, from the day she became the king of Beixuan, his fate with Dugu Yanxiang was over.

Dugu Yanxiang saw that he didn't speak, so he asked again: "A few days ago, Rong Rong offered two snow wolf skins, and I thought that you were cold in winter, so I asked someone to send them to your house, won't you also send them to others?" ”

Shangguan Beitang saw him asking, and said without concealing it: "The border is bitterly cold, the old general Wei has been guarding the border for decades, and he suffers from old cold legs all the year round, and Weichen is his apprentice,"

"Okay, I know, you, who are apprentices, are so filial." Dugu Yanxiang interrupted him angrily, and he asked again with the last trace of luck: "Is there anything else you didn't give to others?" ”

Shangguan Beitang stopped squeaking.

"Didn't you give away my danqing!" Dugu Yanxiang was really angry.

Shangguan Beitang said: "The Danqing picture is depicted by His Majesty himself, even if he gives the minister ten dares, the minister does not dare to give this thing to others." ”

When Dugu Yanxiang heard this, he finally felt a little comforted in his heart, thinking that Shangguan Beitang was still a little measured, and finally he didn't care about him.

But the next moment, he was almost by Shangguan Beitang.

"The minister just took it to the pawnshop, exchanged it for some silver taels, and used it as a salary in the Beixuan Army." Shangguan Beitang said again.

"You," Dugu Yanxiang pointed his finger at him angrily, "You are so bold, you dare to go to the pawnshop with my handwritten calligraphy and paintings, how much money did you make?" ”

"One thousand taels." Shangguan Beitang replied in a low voice.

"One thousand taels, my handwritten calligraphy and painting are only a thousand taels." Dugu Yanxiang flicked his sleeves, looked at Ning Chun'an and said, "Look at him, he still has half a point in his heart."

"The emperor's 1,000 taels is already the highest price, and Weichen ran all over the capital to find a company that knows the goods." Shangguan Beitang is not afraid of death.

"You, you, what a bold man!" Dugu Yanxiang was furious.

He yelled at Ning Chun'an: "Pass on my order, and in the future, if anyone dares to accept the gifts given by the Beixuan Palace, they will be killed." ”

Ning Chun'an replied with a vague voice: "Yes." ”

Shangguan Beitang said again: "Then the emperor should not reward his ministers with things in the future." Otherwise, this thing is also placed in the palace, and when it arrives at the Beixuan Palace, it is just a place to move. ”

"Good, good. Someone! The king of Beixuan disobeyed me, and gave other people's royal gifts, punished for one year, and punished twenty rods. Dugu Yanxiang said angrily.

He had to give Shangguan Beitang a little punishment, otherwise did he really think that he couldn't do anything about him? For the first time in all these years, he had someone punish him.

He waited for Shangguan Beitang to beg for mercy and said a soft word to him. But he didn't even frown, just knelt down and kowtowed, and said, "Minister, thank you." ”

Undoubtedly, Shangguan Beitang's behavior angered him even more. For in his heart, he regarded him only as a king, and he was no different from others.

The guards on both sides were still hesitating whether to take Shangguan Beitang down to be punished. Because they also know that the king of Beixuan is the emperor's favored minister. The emperor generally does not punish him.

Dugu Yanxiang saw that the guards on both sides were not moving, and immediately shouted: "What are you doing in a daze?" Don't drag it out yet. ”

Then they brought them out of the temple.

After a while, Dugu Yanxiang asked Ning Chun'an, who had just come in from outside the hall, "Did you fight?" ”

"Hit." Ning Chunan replied.

Dugu Yanxiang raised his hand and almost hit Ning Chun'an, saying, "Tsk, who told you to really fight."

"Not you?" As soon as Ning Chunan spoke, he was glared at by Dugu Yanxiang, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly stuffed the words back.

"What about people?" Dugu Yanxiang walked out anxiously and asked.

"The servant prepared a carriage and horse for him, but the prince didn't sit and kept going out of the palace." Ning Chun'an hurriedly followed behind him and replied carefully.

"Useless stuff." Dugu Yanxiang scolded angrily and trotted towards Chengde Gate.

After chasing for a quarter of an hour, Dugu Yanxiang saw Shangguan Beitang limping forward from a distance.

Looking at his painful and embarrassing appearance, Dugu Yan Xiang regretted it for a moment, he didn't know if he was a ghost, so he ordered someone to beat him.

He hurriedly ran to him in three steps and two steps, and did not speak, let alone care about etiquette and decency, and carried him to the Kangqian Palace.

Then he instructed his subordinates: "Ning Chun'an, quickly pass on the imperial doctor." ”

Shangguan Beitang was a little puzzled by this sudden carrying, and hurriedly asked, "Your Majesty, what are you going to do?" Put me down. ”

"If it doesn't hurt yet, you can just move around!" Dugu Yanxiang said with a cold face.

"You, you" Shangguan Beitang was angry, speechless for a long time.

When I arrived at the Kangqian Palace, the imperial doctor came to see the disease. Dugu Yanxiang also did not allow the imperial doctor to check the wound, only said that he had been beaten by the board and told him to leave some medicine for bruises.

The doctor left some of the plasters behind and walked away.

After everyone retreated, Dugu Yanxiang handed the medicine to Shangguan Beitang with an expressionless face, and said, "Go by yourself." Then he turned away.

Shangguan Beitang took the medicine and put it on the table, and said, "The board was ordered by the emperor, so why bother to care for Weichen again." ”

"Hmph, you deserve to be beaten by the board." Dugu Yanxiang snorted coldly and said: "You have repeatedly committed the following crimes, disobeying me, and I am already an extrajudicial favor if I don't cut off your head." ”

"Then why didn't the emperor just beat me to death? Why did you ask the doctor to treat me? Shangguan Beitang said.

"You don't have to kill me." Dugu Yanxiang pointed to Shangguan Beitang and said with his fingers.

Shangguan Beitang didn't speak, and the room was silent for a long time. Dugu Yan Xiangcai said: "Xiang'er, don't you really understand my sincerity?" ”

Hearing this, Shangguan Beitang's tears couldn't help but flow, he wiped his tears, and he whispered: "The emperor is sincere, how can Shang'er not understand, it's just that you and I have different identities, and I'm afraid that there is no fate in this life." Please also ask the emperor to treat some ministers lightly, and don't pay the truth wrongly. Stop being criticized. ”

"No, I'll find another way, I don't believe in heaven or fate. I don't believe you, I'm all here. Dugu Yanxiang said.

"Your Majesty, you have also seen that you and I have made the ministers angry, and Yuzhu has become a pawn in the hands of the Queen Mother. Just because of me, Da Jiang's century-old foundation was almost overthrown by the ministers, and because of me, Yuzhu had no choice but to break off her marriage with Xiao Yiqing. Shangguan Beitang said again,

"Your Majesty, if your happiness and mine are based on the suffering of innocent people, do you think we can live in peace?"

"I don't care, I don't want this country, I will never give up on you if I lose the world." Dugu Yanxiang still said stubbornly.

"Since the emperor keeps saying that he would rather lose the world than me, then let me ask you, what about Concubine Rong, what is she?" Shangguan Beitang asked sharply.

Dugu Yanxiang wanted to explain something, but after all, Shangguan Beitang interrupted him before he could leave.

"Is it because the emperor can't get the spiritual sustenance of the ministers, a stand-in, or does he really like it?"

Dugu Yanxiang was shocked by Shangguan Beitang's point-to-point question. For a while, he didn't know how to answer.

When he first saw Concubine Rong, he was shocked by her resemblance to Shangguan Beitang.

The eyebrows are picturesque, the heart is elegant, and he thinks that if Beitang changes into women's clothes, it will probably look like this. So he took the maid as a concubine on a whim.

Although she doesn't love her, it can be regarded as a substitute for her when she misses Beishang. Now Shangguan Beitang actually saw through his thoughts.

Dugu Yanxiang said with sad eyes: "She is very similar to you, how many times have I wanted to be her as you, but unfortunately she is not." ”

Shangguan Beitang smiled sadly: "Heh, but the emperor finally became a person who can become a fish and shrimp." Since the emperor has her, if she wants to come, she also thinks about the emperor wholeheartedly, so please treat her well! ”

After that, he struggled to get up and walked out, but stopped again and said, "Your Majesty, you and I will only be kings and ministers in the future!" Shangguan Beitang is still the king of Beixuan of Da Jiang, and he will still be loyal to the monarch and patriotic to repay the grace of heaven. ”

This time, Dugu Yanxiang didn't stop him again, in this matter, he was wrong after all.

The emperor of the world, what about the co-lord of the world, his beloved is parting after all, and he can't get it, and he is sad.

It's okay that the years are so good, but no one would have thought that just a few days later, there would be such a big trouble at the birthday banquet of the Beixuan King. It was this incident that became the final blow to bring down Shangguan Beitang.

It was a sunny day and the sky was crisp. Shangguan Beitang hosted a banquet for friends from all over the world.

The people who came to congratulate the king of Beixuan on his birthday can be described as vast and endless.

There are officials from the six ministries of the DPRK and the Central Committee, and there are friends from all over the world. The people of the Beixuan Palace's mansion began to prepare more than ten days ago, but on this day, they were still busy.

It is in this day of joy and chaos that those who have a heart have an opportunity.

Although the affairs of the inner courtyard are carefully taken care of by Mama Liu, the tiger will also have a nap, not to mention that it is such a chaotic day.

On this day, Yuzhu, as the only hostess of the Beixuan Palace, naturally wants to accompany the ladies in each mansion to have fun and drink, so as to make the landlord happy.

No, she got up early and dressed up, worrying about this and that. But he didn't worry about himself.

Mama Liu was afraid of adding chaos to her busy schedule, so she ordered Xiaoru to move the princess's edible products to the inner courtyard early. I found someone to worry about and waited carefully.

But after all, there are thousands of precautions, and they can't prevent it, and the villains want to do evil in every possible way.

Just when the old men in the front yard were busy watching the play, and the ladies in the inner courtyard were chatting with melon seeds to pass the time, a thin maid came to the inner courtyard with a plate of snacks from the front yard.

She walked through the bustling crowd and stepped forward to salute Yuzhu and reported: "Princess Niangniang, the prince and the adults are eating tea and watching the play in the front yard, and specially ordered someone to prepare this plate of matcha cake for Niangniang, saying that Niangniang loves to eat, please eat a few more pieces." ”

Yuzhu looked at this maid, and saw that it was a rough maid who was often serving in the prince's courtyard, so he didn't doubt it, and said with a chuckle: "Put it down!" ”
