At night, Qin Ming, who returned to the imperial capital, took everyone to rest in a place on the road.

"Rest for the night, and you can go back to the imperial capital at noon tomorrow."

Qin Ming looked at the little princess on the side and said.

The little princess nodded: "Qin Ming, my father is seriously ill...... Why didn't you tell me. ”

"I also knew that it didn't take long for him to hide it, and perhaps, he didn't want us to worry."

Qin Ming could only appease the little princess like this, he knew that the little princess had a good relationship with her father.

The little princess was a little worried: "Can't you cure him too?" ”

This stopped Qin Ming, as a modern person, he could only use the contents of the medical box to prescribe the right medicine according to his attempts.

However, the emperor's situation is due to many years of old injuries and years of hard work, excessive consumption, which has led to the current situation, Qin Ming is not a doctor, and he doesn't even know the specific cause, how can he treat it?

Seeing that Qin Ming didn't speak, the little princess also knew that she was embarrassed by Qin Ming, so she took Qin Ming's hand and stopped talking.

On the side, Luo Ziyi watched this scene and did not speak, but her eyes were full of envy.

Qin Ming felt a little heavy, closed his eyes, and began to rest.

And at this moment, a secret guard came over: "Overseer, King Cheng sent someone to deliver news!" ”

Qin Ming got up: "Where?" ”

The dark guard turned around and gestured, and a middle-aged man quickly walked over and knelt on the ground: "I've seen Your Highness!" ”

"Who are you?" Qin Ming asked.

A four-grade master, the imperial capital, is not uncommon!

"Back to Your Highness, I am the righteous son of King Cheng, and here, it is my father-in-law who asked me to send an important letter to His Highness, and I guarantee with my life that everything is true!"

Qin Ming frowned: "A letter, a guarantee for your life?" Show me! ”

The middle-aged man took out the envelope and handed it to Qin Ming very carefully and respectfully.

Qin Ming took it with one hand, then opened the seal, took out the letter inside, and looked at it carefully.

After about a few breaths, his eyes widened, his breathing became short, and his face became ugly.

After a long time, he put the letter away, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it into the fire on the ground.

Then he closed his eyes and said nothing.

"Brother Qin Ming, what's wrong." The little princess asked cautiously.

Qin Ming opened his eyes, pulled the little princess and whispered, "You come with me!" ”

The little princess was puzzled, and after following Qin Ming for a long distance, Qin Ming stopped, hugged the little princess tightly with his hands, and her voice trembled slightly:

"Yeon'...... Your father...... Died ......"

In an instant, the little princess's petite body shook violently, and then she sobbed softly, and said in a voice of disbelief:

"It's... Not really? ”

"It's true, it's been a few days, and your queen mother followed your father's wishes and didn't notify us as soon as possible......" Qin Ming took a deep breath and said:

"Now, I finally understand why your father asked me to take you with me this time. Because he knows better than anyone that he can't hold on, and he doesn't want you to stay with him too sadly......"

The little princess's body was trembling, her tears couldn't stop flowing, and she said in a choked voice:

"How could it be...... How could it be...... My father is in good health...... How could it be......"

"I don't believe it, Brother Qin Ming, that's not true......"

Qin Ming didn't speak, hugged the little princess tightly, and stood for half an hour......

"Let's go back to the imperial capital, there are still many things waiting for us!" Qin Ming let go of his hand and spoke gently.

The little princess nodded, wiped away her tears, and took a deep breath.

And Qin Ming didn't plan to rest, and told everyone to set off overnight and return to the imperial capital.

Along the way, he kept thinking about the situation of the imperial court as mentioned in the king's letter.

"King Pingyang...... On weekdays, I don't show mountains and dew, I didn't expect the ambition to be so big, and I want to come out and pick up the leak at this time, hum, ridiculous! ”

In addition, he was also thinking deeply, the emperor knew that he was going to die, and let Qin Ming leave at this critical time, and asked King Cheng to write a letter to Qin Ming to come back when the situation was chaotic.

What does this mean?

Qin Ming thought about it for a long time, and in the end, he came up with a solution.

In this chaotic situation, Qin Ming could see clearly the people who were opposite to him in the court to the greatest extent.

At the same time, in this case, he eliminated those who were opposed, and only then could he sit more firmly on the throne of God!

Thinking of this, not only did he sigh, but the emperor was really thoughtful and well-intentioned!

Then, he, Qin Ming, can't let the emperor down!

Therefore, he made a simple plan to quietly return to the imperial capital.

Back outside the imperial capital, Qin Ming let 20,000 troops outside the city, more than 1,000 secret guards infiltrated the imperial capital, and more than 100 disciples of the Four Heavens also infiltrated the imperial capital.

He, the little princess and Luo Ziyi, also quietly returned to the imperial capital.

After sending Luo Ziyi and the princess back to the Qin Mansion quietly, it was already morning, and the hundred officials went to kneel in front of the emperor's coffin as usual.

At this time, almost all the officials of the imperial capital entered the palace.

Qin Ming sneaked into the young master's house at this time and sat in the hall of the young master's house alone.

There were usually no people in the hall, so no one knew that Qin Ming was coming.

After Qin Ming waited here for a while, the young master came back.

Beside him, there are also Shao Bao and Shao Shi.

They are ranked among the three orphans, all of whom are from the first grade, and they have no real power in the court, but their status is very high.

At this moment, they were talking and laughing and walking into the hall, when they heard Qian Shaofu say: "Two, the king of Pingyang is powerful, and this situation is probably stable." ”

Taibao laughed and said: "Hahaha, that is, we were worried before, Qin Ming became the emperor, how can I have a good life?"

Well, now at the critical moment, he is not there, creating an opportunity for King Pingyang, this time the prince of Pingyang succeeded in ascending the throne, I wait, that's it. ”

The three of them smiled with satisfaction, and then the young master spoke: "Once the prince of Pingyang ascends the throne, our position will be prominent, and it will definitely be windy and rainy, which is better than Qin Ming, a bastard, ascending the throne." ”

"This is true, but, then again, you say, where did Qin Ming go? It's strange that I haven't shown up for so long. Shao Bao was puzzled.

The young master waved his hand when he heard this: "Oh, it doesn't matter where he goes, as long as he doesn't show up in the past two days and let the prince of Pingyang ascend the throne smoothly, then this court will have no status for him, and in the future, we still need to be afraid of him?" Haha, non-existent. ”

"Yes, hahaha, it doesn't matter where he goes, as long as he doesn't show up now!"

Several people burst out laughing.

And at this time, in the hall, Qin Ming, who was sitting on the top seat, also laughed.

The three of them were stunned, and then looked into the hall, and saw Qin Ming sitting on it, looking at the three of them with a smile on his face.

The three of them were stunned for a moment, thinking they were dazzled, but immediately after, they heard Qin Ming say:

"It's unfortunate that Lao Tzu has appeared now, do you say you're angry?"

"Qin ...... Qin Ming...... You...... How did you end up here? The young master was so frightened that his face turned white.

On the side, the legs and stomachs of the young master and the young guard trembled!
