Chapter 125: Jin Cheng returns
Yu Chi Longcheng has been annoyed to death by the overwhelming recitals for the past two days, and most of them are asking him to make a reserve as soon as possible. Finally, when he couldn't bear it anymore, Yu Chi Longcheng moved Long Wei, and threw the piece on the ground with a "snap": "My crown prince, I know it in my own heart!" If you hand me two folds in three days, and say this, Hugh blames me for turning his face and being ruthless, and let him roll up and go back to his hometown to farm now! ”
At this time, everyone in the court is honest. Long Yan was furious, who could resist it? Everyone came out to eat together, and they couldn't afford to lose their official positions for this matter. Since the emperor said that he knew it in his heart, then they would think about it carefully, the four princes are dead, and among the remaining princes, who will have a chance to inherit the unification, and then stand in line early.
Glancing at the faces of these people, Yu Chi Longcheng naturally knew what they were thinking in his heart, but now he didn't want to mention it at all. I hurriedly asked if there was anything else to do, and then I retreated.
In the harem, there are countless beauties and beauties, but after turning around, Yu Chilong Chengdu can't raise half of his interest. Don't say that those beauties are no better than the vulgar fans on the street, even if the immortals descend to earth, for him, it is not as good as the smile of the deceased.
Empress Li, the only woman Yu Chi Longcheng loved deeply in this life, but unfortunately lost her life for him in the years like flowers.
After cleaning up his emotions, Yu Chi Longcheng came to the imperial garden again, where he often played chess with Wendi. This girl is no longer here, no one to play with him, talk to him, if he didn't know that this girl is still safe, he can't wait to send someone to find her now, take her back to the palace, and protect her well.
"Your Majesty, you have something on your mind." Behind him, a flat voice came, and Yu Chi Longcheng was slightly stunned, turned around, and frowned a little.
"It's okay to suddenly appear and scare me, and it scared me, can you afford it?"
"As the Son of Heaven, the emperor is naturally protected by a hundred spirits, so he is so easy to be frightened. Besides, hasn't it always been like this when your subordinates get along with the emperor? ”
"Hmph, you're flamboyant!" Yu Chi Longcheng snorted lightly, and his face was pleasant.
"Your Majesty, the girl has left the capital and gone to enjoy the mountains and rivers."
When Yu Chi Longcheng heard this, he paused, but he also nodded: "Alas, that's fine." They've done enough for me. I'll do the rest. I owe them a happy start, so make it back to them. ”
"The stand-in of the seventeenth prince, two people have already died."
"Alas...... It's a pity for those two children, I remember, it took a lot of thought to collect them in the first place. Yu Chi Longcheng sighed.
"When does the emperor plan to close the net?"
"Aiqing, since you know everything, why do you still ask me?" Yu Chi Longcheng looked at him.
"The love of birth and nourishment is deep in the sea for everyone, the emperor, and his subordinates know the emperor's intentions, but they can't bear the coming pain on behalf of the emperor."
Hearing this, Yu Chi Longcheng nodded: "You're right!" Sometimes, this kind of pain can only be borne by me alone! ”
He paced two steps around with his hands behind his back, tilted his head slightly, and looked at the sky: "As an emperor, he is destined to be lonely for a lifetime. That kind of pain can only be experienced by those who sit in this seat! ”
That night, Yu Chi Longcheng was still in the imperial study to review the chapters. The little eunuch cut the lamp and candle for him several times, and when he saw that he had no intention of going to bed, he wanted to speak several times.
The tea on the dragon case was changed by him again and again, and just as he was about to replace it, Yu Chi Longcheng picked it up, put it to his lips and took a sip.
"Your Majesty, this tea ......" The little eunuch was a little apprehensive, after all, the tea was a little cold, and if the emperor was uncomfortable drinking it, this anger was not something he could afford.
"It's okay, the temperature is just right." Yu Chi Longcheng didn't look at him, but looked intently at the piece in his hand. Information came from the border pass, saying that Huang Minlong was seriously injured and was still recuperating, and the northern barbarians sent a letter to send a horse and arrived in the capital in a few days.
Although the fighting was resolved, the north was temporarily suspended. However, Yu Chi Longcheng's heart felt even more uneasy.
Seeing the emperor's sad appearance, the little eunuch couldn't help but persuade in a low voice: "Your Majesty, it's not early, you better rest early." The slave doesn't understand this court, the slave only knows, and the combination of work and rest can make it more efficient. ”
Listening to his advice, Yu Chi Longcheng couldn't help but look up at the little eunuch. He looked white and clean, and his eyebrows and eyes were a little delicate, so he couldn't help asking, "What's your name?" ”
"If you go back to the emperor, the villain's name is Ding'an, and he will replace Gonggong Li, who is on leave, and come to the imperial study to serve the emperor." Ding'an replied respectfully.
"Ding'an, have you ever read?"
"Back to the emperor, the villain studied in a private school in the early years, but later when there was an accident in the family, the villain was sent to the palace......" After the little eunuch finished speaking, he lowered his eyes again.
Yu Chi Longcheng nodded: "You are very good, just stay by my side and serve." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" After Ding'an finished speaking, he knelt down and thanked him.
Suddenly, the candle shadow flickered, and there was already one more person in the room.
Yu Chi Longcheng looked up, and saw that the man had sword eyebrows and phoenix eyes, a tall figure, and a brocade robe made him even more heroic.
"You, you are ......" Yu Chi Longcheng was stunned, and then his voice trembled slightly.
"Father, the son is back."
Ding'an had already been ordered there, maintaining a kneeling position. Yu Chi Longcheng sat opposite the person who came, speechless for a long time.
After taking a closer look, Yu Chi Longcheng's previous surprise had disappeared, replaced by a look full of relief.
"Old Seventeen, you really worked this expedition."
"Whatever my father said, my sons and daughters can share their father's worries, and I am very happy in my heart."
Yu Chi Jincheng sat there with a smile on his lips.
"It's just that, I heard that you spent a lot of money this time to lure the snake out of the hole."
Nodding, Wei Chi Jincheng was a little regretful: "What my father said is extremely true, although the 100,000 soldiers, although the elite soldiers have been sent to the front line, most of them have become bait and sacrificed. ”
"Child, what do you think about this?" Yu Chi Longcheng did not comment, but looked at him.
"One will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither, father, isn't this a truth that both the prince and the soldier know?"
"However, they did not die on the battlefield, but became victims of the intrigue between the princes!" Yu Chi Longcheng sighed and looked at the door of the imperial study.
Wei Chi Jincheng paused, and hurriedly bowed his head and pleaded guilty: "The child's ability is limited, so he can only think of this method to lure all the enemies in the shadows over, causing 100,000 soldiers to become dry bones, which is really a last resort." I also hope that my father can be considerate of my son. As for their families, the sons have already sent someone to pay for them, and they will definitely not be treated badly. ”
Yu Chi Longcheng was noncommittal: "I heard that your best secret guard lost his life for this!" ”
Wei Chi Jincheng was slightly stunned, and then nodded: "Yes, he is Erchen's best secret guard, and he is also Erchen's most trusted brother." died for his son, I believe that he also died well, without regrets! ”
"Bastard!" Yu Chi Longcheng slapped the dragon case violently, the tea had been shattered by his internal force, and the tea stains were everywhere with the broken ceramic pieces, but Yu Chi Jincheng didn't dare to move.
"You only think he is a tool for you to fight for power and profit, where is he a brother? Old Seventeen, you, you're so disappointed! ”
"Father?!" Yu Chi Jincheng's eyes were full of puzzlement, he was just a secret guard, a stand-in, why was his father so angry with him?
"Father, it was you who told your sons that in front of the imperial power, what parents and brothers are all empty, why did a mere secret guard make your father angry with his sons?"
Yu Chi Longcheng clenched his fists tightly, and it took a while to regain some of his senses. He gasped for breath, tried to suppress the anger in his heart, and explained to him, "Son, that dark guard is your most powerful person, isn't it? Now that the great cause has not been accomplished, you are in such a hurry to dispose of him, don't you feel that you are too anxious? ”
When Yu Chi Jincheng heard this, he let out an imperceptible cold snort from his nose, and looked at Yu Chi Longcheng with some unconvinced: "So, Erchen would like to ask his father, when is the time ripe for Erchen to be able to get rid of them all?" Father, you must have cleared it too, that person has a face that is the same as that of his son, if he is replaced in the future, then I have heard that the world of the dynasty has become someone else's?! ”
"You!" Yu Chi Longcheng wanted to say something, but he couldn't help it, and at the end, he sighed, "That's it!" Since you think now is the right time, let your father leave it to you. You haven't gotten rid of the power of your imperial brothers, but I want to see how my son will collapse them one by one after he loses his right-hand man. ”
"Father, rest assured! Now, except for the fourteenth brother, the other royal brothers are no longer in the climate, and their power is just some small shrimp. Erchen naturally has a way to deal with it! The sons only ask their fathers to fulfill their promise and pass on the position of prince to the sons! ”
Wei Chi Jincheng looked at him, but there was not much respect in his eyes.
Yu Chi Longcheng also looked back at this full-fledged son: Once upon a time, he was still respectful to himself, although he had made many military exploits, but in front of his father, he still had a little flattery. But now that he had crushed his brothers, he stood before him and demanded from him everything that had been promised to him.
"Son, you have to remember that on the way to imperial power, you will sacrifice a lot of things. If your father told you that the concubine you valued the most, as soon as she heard the news of your death, she quickly whipped to the border and went with you, how would you feel? ! ”
Wei Chi Jincheng's pupils shrank slightly, these days he only cared about wandering around the capital, using the people he secretly left behind, cutting off the henchmen left by the imperial brothers, but ignoring the affairs in the palace. Li Erdai became a bait and died at the border, and he forgot to tell this little woman in the house!
Now she thought he was dead, and she ran to martyrdom! It turns out that her friendship for him is already so deep?
After a pause, Wei Chi Jincheng sorted out his emotions and slowly spoke: "Father, I remember that you once hinted at Concubine Wen when you played chess. The birds are all gone, and the good bow is hidden. The cunning rabbit is dead, and the lackeys are cooking! I think she herself has such an awareness, knowing that sooner or later, her sons will treat her like those people! ”
