"Your Highness, ...... you"

In the study of the East Palace, Zhang Cambodia was sweating profusely in the official room, when he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps, and subconsciously raised his head.

"Hmm."

Li Xian's face was gloomy, he said noncommittally, strode to the top and sat down, and then waved his hand to retreat Gao Miao and the others who were accompanying him.

"Could it be that something has gone wrong in the five-state impeachment case?"

As Li Xian's absolute confidant, Zhang Khan Zhi knew the reason for Li Xian's entry into the palace, and seeing that Li Xian was so unhappy, he immediately guessed what the accident was, but he was not completely sure, so he asked tentatively.

"Well, there was an accident, the palace didn't expect that Ming Chongyan was also in the palace, and he was spoiled by his good porridge ......, I really don't know what my father thought, there is nothing to discuss about such an obvious case!"

Li Xian let out a long breath and described the incident in detail, and at the end, he slapped a few times unwillingly, and sighed with hatred.

"The emperor's scheming, this is the emperor's scheming!"

Zhang Cambodia listened to Li Xian's statement silently, but did not rush to explain, but sat still and pondered for a moment, and then shook his head and sighed with emotion.

"Huh?"

As soon as he heard Zhang Cambodia's words, Li Xian couldn't help but be stunned, and frowned in confusion.

"For the emperor, the balance is the royal road, Your Highness has been in the limelight a little too much these days, even if Your Majesty has no suspicion, but he doesn't dare to guard against it."

Zhang Cambodia glanced at Li Xian, and saw that Li Xian still didn't understand the strangeness, so he woke up with a word.

"Well, it's ......, it's up to him to prevent it, this palace is upright, but I'm not afraid that the shadow will be crooked, but there is something that may be done when it's time to do it, Ming Chongyan is arrogant, this palace is annoying to look at, just remove it, save the whole day in front of the palace!"

Li Xian thought about it with a frown, and couldn't find a reason to refute Zhang Cambodia, so he could only reluctantly accept Zhang Cambodia's explanation, but he couldn't swallow the evil breath in his heart, so he raised his eyebrows, and said hatefully, he was planning to take Ming Chongyan to open the knife.

"Your Highness Mingjian, that Ming Chongyan is just a clown, even if he is allowed to jump, he will not make any waves, why do you have to make such a decision, if you lose, the aftermath may be difficult."

After all, Zhang Cambodia belongs to the Great Confucian, and he really doesn't want to accept such a thing as assassination, and when he saw Li Xian overflowing with murderous energy, he was quite disapproving, so he politely admonished.

"Otherwise, this thief has always acted despicably, and it is the hub that unites the thieves of the Hou Party, eradicating it, one can cut off the mother's mother's arm, and the other can also avoid his whole day in the name of ghosts and gods in the ears of his father, but the plan is stopped, but there is no need to worry about the aftermath, the will of the palace has been decided, can Mr. have any good strategies?"

Li Xian's patience with Ming Chongyan had reached the limit, and he refused to listen to Zhang Cambodia's advice, so he waved his hand and made a decision in an unquestionable tone.

"Well, it must be done with a good life plan, ......well, in a few days it will be Qingming, and it should be time for the sacrificial ceremony, according to the old practice, it should be Your Majesty who personally presides over the ceremony and the banquet to invite the ministers in Beijing, but Your Majesty is now in poor health, this matter may fall on His Highness, and the opportunity may appear in this matter!"

Seeing that Li Xian's determination had been made, although Zhang Cambodia was still quite unimpressed in his heart, he didn't persuade him more, but frowned slightly, and calculated quickly.

"Ritual ceremony? Hmmm......"

Li Xian himself is also a good scheming person, although Zhang Cambodia did not say it thoroughly, but Li Xian was a little bit clear, raised his eyebrows, nodded thoughtfully, and his brain was already running at high speed......

Time flies, in a blink of an eye, it is already the Qingming Festival, Gao Zhizhou, who was ordered to investigate the case, has already returned, and brought back an investigation report with ambiguous wording, the article is written in a flowery manner, but the inside is full of maybe, possible and other nonsense, trying to catch the wind and catch the shadows, after the book went up, whether it was Gaozong or the Empress Wu, did not say a word about it, not even a minimum explanation, although the courtiers were quite complaining, but no one came forward for this, A noisy five-state impeachment case has come to an end, but perhaps for the sake of appeasing Li Xian, the glory of this sacrificial ceremony and even the later banquet and ministers fell on Li Xian.

Presiding over the sacrificial ceremony is the gift of the Son of Heaven, the glory and grandeur are needless to say, the whole ceremony has been tossed from the time to the end of the card, all kinds of red tape are countless, not to mention a group of old courtiers, even Li Xian himself was also tossed enough, fortunately, everything went smoothly, and finally dealt with the past without mistakes.

The royal banquet is to take the meaning of rewarding all the ministers in Beijing, its content is rich and tight, the wine is good wine, the dish is a good dish, the song and dance are colorful, the silk and bamboo are noisy, and the heat of the faction is vigorous, perhaps because of the first time to preside over this kind of banquet, Li Xian's spirit can be said to be extremely excited, keep raising the bottle to invite drinks, and the crowd is happy, at the end, but also personally down the gatehouse, toast around, a big banquet down, is already drunk, after the end, even the road is almost unable to walk, fortunately with Gao Miao and other close to the support of the eunuchs, This is not very foreign, but the drunken appearance has been fully revealed, the ministers see it, they can't help but have their own private opinions, saying that Li Xian is heroic, saying that Li Xian is a prodigal wreck, of course, most people just laugh at it, after all, this is a small section, it is really harmless, but there is not much to criticize.

"Brother Ge, it's still early, it's a Xun holiday tomorrow, and my brother is not worth it, why don't you go to your brother's life and kill a few plates?"

Although Ming Chongyan is extremely disgusted with Li Xian, he will not get along with his own belly, this feast is what should be eaten, what should be drunk, and when the wine and food are full, the chess addiction is pouring up, this is over, and he went to the military generals to find Gar Yinbow, and issued an invitation to fight.

"If Brother Ming is not afraid of losing, the younger brother is happy to accompany him."

Gar Yingong used to approach Ming Chongyan in order to gain the appreciation of the Empress Wu, not really want to be friendly with Ming Chongyan, but after really getting the appreciation of the Empress Wu, he found that Ming Chongyan's status in the mind of the Empress Wu is really beyond the reach of his subordinates, although he does not know the reason, but he has strengthened his mind to make friends with Ming Chongyan, for Ming Chongyan's invitation, he will not have the slightest objection, and laughed and ridiculed Ming Chongyan.

"Ha, you kid, crazy, I'll see how my brother cleans you up later, go!"

Ming Chongyan had always been accustomed to fighting with Gar Yinggong, and he would not mind Gar Yinggong's teasing, laughing and grabbing his shoulder, laughing all the way to the carriage parking.

"General Ge, please stay."

Just as the two of them were about to get into the carriage, they saw a Yulin military captain hurrying to the front and let out a shout.

"It turned out to be Captain Wang, is there anything going on with the search for Ben?"

Gar Yingong heard the sound, he paused, looked back, and recognized the person, it was actually Wang Yaotian, the head of the guard of Zuo Yulin's general Wu Yining, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he smiled and greeted him.

"General Ge is invited, my general should have been on duty all night today, but the wine was on the head, I am afraid it will be difficult to insist, I hope the general can be on duty on his behalf, and I ask General Ge to take care of the rudeness."

Gar Yingong is now the upstart of the Yulin Army, although it is only the title of Lang General, but it is quite important to be a martial queen, Wang Yaotian does not dare to be rude in front of him, but Wu Yining wants to be lazy, as a subordinate, Wang Yaotian can only smile bitterly and press the task of night duty on Gar Yinbow's body.

"No problem, please also ask Captain Wang to return to General Wu, and the general will go on an errand."

Knowing that Wu Yining was wearing his own shoes, Gar Yinggong inevitably felt a little resentful in his heart, but he did not bring it to his face, but accepted it happily.

"I'm tired."

Wang Yaotian finished the matter, he didn't want to stay longer for a moment, and after bowing and saluting, he turned around and left.

"Brother Ming, the younger brother has another envoy with him, so I won't accompany him much, just talk about it another day."

Seeing that the hour is approaching, Gar Yingong has no intention of delaying any longer, and after smiling and explaining, he did not wait for Ming Chongyan to return the salute, and hurriedly rode his horse in the direction of Daming Palace.

Chess addiction is like a worm, once it gets into people's hearts, if you want to drive it out, it's not so easy, you can't invite you to fight, Ming Chongyan is unbearable, even if he takes a cold shower after returning home, he still can't hold back the irritability in his heart, and he has no sleepiness at all, so he simply put on a single coat and went to the back garden, randomly found a pavilion and sat down, bored looking at the dark night sky in a daze.

Ten years, since he entered the court as an official, it has been ten years, but the oath he made at the beginning has not been fulfilled until now, it is not that he Ming Chongyan is not careful, but Li Xian's treacherous people, so many intentions, all have come to naught, not only failed to get Li Xian, but he was injured a lot, and he could only sit and watch his step by step, this bitterness is really unbearable, as soon as he remembered the shadow he met in the White Horse Temple, Ming Chongyan's heart was dripping blood, and he couldn't wait to immediately raise his sword and rush into the East Palace, Kill Li Xian and there are no bones left, but it's a pity, resentment is resentment after all, God knows when it will be able to dissolve such a feud.

"Huh?"

When Ming Chongyan was thinking about it, his heart suddenly rolled a throbbing, his body stiffened suddenly, and he snorted coldly involuntarily, and his eyes instantly became fierce......
