Chapter 510: Persuasion
() Beijing.
Chang Lei walked on the paths around the capital, and this side has improved a lot, and it is no longer the desolate appearance when he and the prince were looking for the culprit who killed Yin Qingqi back then.
Chang Lei knocked on the wooden door according to his original residence.
There was one person who came out of it, it was Cuizhu, Chang Lei smiled at it, and hurriedly bowed down to say goodbye.
"The Seventh Princess."
"Why should General Chang be polite." Cuizhu's face lost its former ruddyness, and turned into a kind of frozen blue that is often found on the faces of rural village women, and he grabbed Chang Lei with one hand and hurriedly invited him into the house.
The seventh elder brother was sitting in the house, and when he heard movement outside the door, he hurriedly got up to greet him.
"It's ...... General Chang? What are you doing here? The seventh elder brother looked at Chang Lei happily, since the last goodbye, many years have passed, and now the seventh elder brother has also changed, if it weren't for the voice, I'm afraid Chang Lei would be a little difficult to identify.
"Don't come unharmed, Seventh Brother." Chang Lei smiled, and a sadness flashed in his eyes.
Although today's Seventh Elder Brother is not in tatters, he seems to be more miserable than ordinary people, not that Qi Yuan is reluctant to provide him with silver taels, but that Seventh Elder Brother scattered all these distributed silver taels to the poor, and he only made money by helping people pull carts and unload goods.
"Seventh Brother, you have suffered." Chang Lei's voice trembled a little, this is the current royal family, and now it has ended up like this.
"Whatever suffers and does not suffer, it is our own choice." The seventh elder brother and Cuizhu glanced at each other, their eyes were full of joy, and they didn't show the slightest complaint.
"Seventh Elder Brother, I came here this time because I want to ask you for something." Chang Lei wanted to speak and stopped, and looked at the face of the seventh elder brother.
"What's the matter, tell me." The seventh elder brother's expression was surprised, he was a great general, how could he ask for something from himself as a mustard people?
"Seventh Elder Brother, do you have any thoughts of returning to the palace?" Chang Lei asked tentatively, with more doubts in his eyes.
"Back to the palace?" The seventh elder brother obviously didn't react, and he didn't understand what Chang Lei meant.
"This matter was said by the crown prince?" The seventh elder brother thought for a while, and the appearance of a person appeared in his mind, and he looked at Chang Lei suspiciously.
"Seventh Elder Brother, you don't know yet, do you?"
Chang Lei sighed
took a breath, slowly stared at the two people in front of him, a touch of grief passed through his eyes, his fists were clenched together, and he didn't squeak.
"Seventh Elder Brother, do you know that a while ago, there was a rebellion in southern Xinjiang?"
"I know, it is said that I am leaving the country again, but this time there are more Nanzhao." The seventh elder brother frowned slightly, southern Xinjiang has always been very chaotic, when the seventh elder brother was still in the palace, the emperor has been worried, one day he will leave the parliament to attack the Celestial Empire, and sure enough, the most worrying thing still happened.
"The crown prince died in that war in order to protect Yin Qingqi." Chang Lei sighed, and the huge grief instantly surged into his heart.
"What did you say?"
Seventh Elder Brother and Cuizhu's faces appeared at the same time, a huge pain appeared at the same time, staring at Chang Lei tightly, and asked in disbelief, the grief in his eyes instantly eroded his body, his whole body stiffened, and he couldn't move.
"Big brother, he...... He's dead? The seventh elder brother took two steps back like five thunderbolts, staggered and almost fell to the ground, his eyes were dark, and his consciousness was a little trance.
"Be careful, husband." Cuizhu hurriedly hugged the seventh elder brother, at this time Cuizhu did not realize that his face was still pear blossoms with rain, and the whole person's expression was as if he had just been drenched in rain, immersed in severe pain.
For the sake of the two of them, the prince did not hesitate to offend the emperor, and was almost taken advantage of this opportunity by the sixth elder brother to make a fuss, Cuizhu to Qi Yuan is not only the emotion between the master and servant, but a deep gratitude.
"In order to save Miss Yin, the prince was trapped in the enemy camp, and it was not until General Xue Tan entered the enemy camp that Qi Yuan was rescued, but it was too late." Chang Lei sighed, as a friend who had been with him day and night, and also for the love of master and servant in the past.
"It wasn't until later, because of Qi Yuan's actions, that the emperor ordered the prince's body to be sent to the iceberg tundra, thrown into the wilderness, and announced to the world, saying that Qi Yuan, as the crown prince, gave up the common people in the world for his own selfish interests......" Chang Lei became more and more excited the more he spoke, trembling all over.
"General Chang, stop talking." The seventh elder brother wiped the corners of his eyes and said slowly, stabilizing his emotions.
"Seventh Elder Brother, I came this time just to let you return to the rivers and lakes and preside over the overall situation, and Master Mo and I will naturally help you, of course, and the Xue family." Chang Lei said firmly.
"The Xue family...... Old General Xue also plans to betray the emperor?
The seventh elder brother frowned, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"You should know why the emperor is so eager to dispose of Qi Yuan, in order to make him the power of the rest of his life, no one can stop him, and now, he has begun to take the Xue family." Chang Lei shook his head helplessly, the seventh elder brother had left the court for too long, and he didn't know much about these things.
"Seventh Elder Brother, we need you to come out now and preside over the overall situation, and you also know that the emperor's methods have always been ruthless and vicious, and when the sixth elder brother fought with Qi Yuan, everything was under his control." Chang Lei looked at the seventh elder brother, and felt a little pity for the ignorant man in front of him.
Born in the emperor's family, it is often so helpless and realistic.
"I don't allow you to say that about my father, you...... What evidence do you have that you don't? The seventh elder brother frowned, although he is only a poor person at the moment, and all this is because of the emperor, but after all, it is his emperor Ama, even if it is not good, it is not the turn of others to judge.
"Seventh Elder Brother, why don't you understand?"
Chang Lei stomped his feet anxiously. "You still don't know, who is good to you? Do you think that the emperor let you go in order to keep your son? If he was really so kind, he wouldn't have given poisoned wine to Cuizhu, the prince was grounded in the East Palace because he spoke for you, and in the end, the prince designed to rescue you from the palace, you are confused! ”
Chang Lei shook his head, and a trace of regret flashed in his eyes.
Compared with Qi Yuan, the seventh elder brother is more like a child who doesn't grow up, although he is kind and charitable, but as the king of a country, what he wants is to be brave and strategic, and he can't be indecisive in doing things.
"There is no way to do it now, the emperor wants to kill Xue Tan, and now General Xue is locked up in prison, the reason why we made this decision is also to leave a way for the emperor to live, after you return to the palace, we will help you and help you abdicate the emperor, when the time comes, even if the emperor does not agree."
Chang Lei's eyes were glowing, and he looked at the seventh elder brother seriously, he was waiting, waiting for the seventh elder brother to give a result.
"You do this, but also for the people of the world, the emperor now doesn't know who is deceived, take back the power, hold the army but do not move, Shuzhou, Yanzhou is about to be lost, the emperor does not send troops to support, the plague in Shuzhou is rampant, Nanzhao Huo Jiuling, now it is so rampant!"
