Chapter 5

Xuanyuan Hibiscus returned to the palace and sat down on a chair, with some rice paper on the bookcase in front of the chair, and an inkstone with a brush on it.

At this time, he thought to himself: Brother Huang is so cowardly, Qingyun will be destroyed in his hands sooner or later, if this king is the emperor, this king will definitely destroy the Sarah Kingdom. Thinking of this, a bold idea arose in his heart, he wanted to take the throne, but he couldn't do it alone.

He was thinking in his heart: Brother Huang's alliance with the Salar Kingdom this time is the best opportunity for this king, as long as he sows discord and uses the power of the Southern Shang Kingdom and the Northern Su Kingdom, he can help this king take the throne. Then he took paper and brush, wrote a letter, left the palace, went to the bazaar, and saw a beggar begging, so he walked over, took a gold leaf from his body, and threw it into the beggar's bowl.

The beggar raised his head and looked at Xuanyuan Mu Jin, and said with a smile: "Thank you for this son." ”

If you're willing to do something for me, I'll give you more gold." Xuanyuan Hibiscus whispered.

"What's the matter?"

"There are a lot of people here, it's inconvenient to say, come with me first." After Xuanyuan Hibiscus finished speaking, he walked into an alley where no one was around, and the beggar followed him into the alley.

At this time, Xuanyuan Mujin took out a bag of gold and a secret letter from his body, and said, "As long as you help me give this secret letter to King Nanshang, this bag of gold is yours." With that, he immediately opened the bag in his hand, and the bag was full of gold.

The beggar had never seen so much gold, and he stared at it and thought: This is a fortune. Then he immediately picked up the gold and Mihan in Xuanyuan Mujin's hand, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, take people's money and eliminate disasters for others, and I will definitely get things done." After saying that, he immediately turned around and left, and just after taking a few steps, Xuanyuan Mujin suddenly said, "Wait." ”

The beggar stopped, turned around and asked, "What else is the matter?" ”

"Don't let anyone, including yourself, know what's in the Tantra, or you'll be killed."

Don't worry, although I am a beggar, I still understand these rules." After the beggar finished speaking, he turned and left.

After the beggar left, Xuanyuan Mujin was still in place, and he said to himself: "The Southern Shangguo and the Northern Suguo are married, if this king can win over the heart of Yuwen Yanjie, the king of Nanshang, then Murong Yu, the king of Beisu, will definitely stand on the side of this king, and when this king becomes the emperor, when the time comes, the three kingdoms will unite, even if Yelu Nan is powerful, he will not be able to deal with the three kingdoms, and at that time it will be his death." After speaking, he showed an evil smile on his face, and continued: "Brother Huang, I'm sorry, for the sake of Qingyun's country, the younger brother can only make this decision, as long as the younger brother is on the throne, he will never hurt you, and when the younger brother destroys the Salar Kingdom, he will return the throne to you." Then he let out a long sigh and returned to the palace, waiting for Yuwen Yanjie to give him good news.

＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿

Nan Shangguo. Yuwen Yanjie is about thirty years old, wearing a dark green brocade robe, a dense black hair is pulled up by a golden crown, leaving no hair, a pair of sword eyebrows, a pair of peach blossom eyes, a tall nose, handsome, and a face with distinct facial features like a carving.

At this time, he was in the Hall of Eternity, sitting on a chair, on the bookcase in front of the chair, there was a piece of rice paper about fifty centimeters wide and one meter long, and an inkstone, he was holding a brush in his hand, and he was writing calligraphy. A city gate guard, holding Mihan in both hands, hurriedly walked into the Eternal Palace, faced Yuwen Yanjie, knelt down on one knee, and said, "Report to the king, your Mihan." ”

Yuwen Yanjie put down the brush in his hand and said, "Pass it on." ”

Jia Shan walked in front of the gatekeeper, grabbed Mihan with both hands, turned around and walked in front of Yuwen Yanjie, bent down, stretched out his hands, and handed Mihan to Yuwen Yanjie.

Jia Shan is a slave next to Yuwen Yanjie, a middle-aged man.

Yuwen Yanjie caught Mihan, and then said to the gatekeeper: "You go down!" ”

The gatekeeper said, "Yes." Then he got up, turned and left.

After the gatekeeper left, Yuwen Yanjie opened the secret Han and took a look, the content of the secret Han said: I am the king of Jinchang of Qingyun Kingdom, my royal brother was coerced by the king of Sala Yelu Nan to jointly attack the Southern Shang Kingdom and the Northern Su Kingdom, and I hope that the two countries can help me and help me seize the throne, Yelu Nan is too rampant, if I become the emperor, when the time comes, our three countries will jointly overthrow the Salar Kingdom, if the king is willing to help me, please reply to me as soon as possible, I will be grateful, I will be in the bamboo forest in the south of the city of the imperial city of Qingyun Kingdom, waiting for the news of the king, just to "Whistling" is a code.

Yuwen Yanjie once had a younger sister, named Yuwen Hua, and later fell in love with Yelu Nan, forcibly married her as a wife, she disobeyed, and was killed by Yelu Nan, this hatred has been lingering in Yuwen Yanjie's heart, he has long had the idea of destroying the Salar Kingdom, but the power of the Southern Shangguo is weak, even with the help of the Northern Su Kingdom, it is not easy to destroy the Salar Kingdom, when he saw such a secret meaning, he was surprised at first, and then thought: No matter what this King Jinchang said is true or false, as long as he can kill Yelu Nan and avenge his sister, Even if it is the tiger's den in Longtan, Lone has to break through. Then he immediately picked up the paper and brush and wrote a reply, replying: Lone is willing to help you achieve your wish, but Lone also has conditions, Lone only needs Yelu Nan to die. After writing it, he handed the letter to Jia Shan and said, "Send someone to send this reply letter to the bamboo forest in the south direction of the imperial city of Qingyun Kingdom, and use 'whistle' as the codeword." ”

Jia Shan took the letter in Yuwen Yanjie's hand and said, "No." Then he quickly left.

＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿

Qingyun Country. Since then, Xuanyuan Mu Jin often goes out of the palace, and on this day, Shangguan Linlang was coming out of the Anshen Temple, planning to go back to the guards to rest, and saw Xuanyuan Mu Jin on the way.

Shangguan Linlang was about to walk over to say hello, but found that Xuanyuan Mu Jin was walking in the direction of the outside of the palace.

Shangguan Linlang said to herself: "It's strange, why has the prince been out of the palace all these days? It's not the first time I've seen him out of the palace. Then he followed Xuanyuan Mu Jin and found that Xuanyuan Mu Jin had been walking in the south direction of the city, into a very remote bamboo forest.

Shangguan Linlang also walked into the bamboo forest, hid in the ditch, and stared at Xuanyuan Mujin from a distance, and at this moment, Xuanyuan Mujin whistled a few times.

Hearing the whistle, a mysterious man with a big knife suddenly came out of the bamboo forest and whistled a few times.

Xuanyuan Mujin saw the mysterious man, and heard the mysterious man also whistle, so he walked over, took out a secret letter from his body, handed it to the mysterious man, and said, "You must be careful and send it safely." ”

The mysterious man caught Mihan and nodded, "Obey." Then he turned and left.

After a while, Xuanyuan Mujin also left.

After Shangguan Linlang waited for Xuanyuan Mujin to go away, he immediately went to chase the mysterious man, chased him to an inn, and just walked into the inn, he found that the mysterious man was sitting on a chair next to the table and eating.

Shangguan Linlang was about to go to the mysterious man, but at this moment, the shopkeeper walked up to Shangguan Linlang and asked, "Guest officer, do you want to be sharpened?" Or a hotel? ”

"I'm here to arrest people." Shangguan Linlang said.

Hearing this, the mysterious man who was eating felt bad, and immediately stood up and ran out as fast as he could.

Shangguan Linlang immediately chased after him, chased for a while, and then took off into the air, using a light skill like stepping on the snow without a trace, and flew in front of the mysterious man.

Before the mysterious man could draw his sword, Shangguan Linlang turned around, drew his sword, and put the sword on the mysterious man's neck at lightning speed, saying: "Hand over the secret han, spare you from death, otherwise you will be allowed to see the king of Hades immediately." ”

The mysterious man trembled with fright, and he didn't dare to make a sound, so he could only obediently take out the secret from his body.

"Tear the secret apart." Shangguan Linlang said again.

The life of the mysterious man was in the hands of Shangguan Linlang, and he had to listen to Shangguan Linlang's words, so he tore open the secret confinement, and just took out the letter, Shangguan Linlang took back the letter as quickly as possible, opened it and took a look, the content of the letter said: The king can help me persuade first, if the persuasion does not work, force the palace, if my imperial brother is soft and hard, then imprison him, but absolutely not hurt him, and when I sit on the throne, our three kingdoms will unite, kill Yelu Nan, and destroy the country of Sala, and then I will personally bear the guilt with my imperial brother.

After Shangguan Linlang read the secret Han, he knew that it was Xuanyuan Mujin's plan to collude with other countries to plot to usurp the throne, and then he said: "Go back and tell your king, your plan is already known to Your Majesty, so don't waste your scheming." With that, he let the mysterious man go.

＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿

Shangguan Linlang came to the Anshen Temple, and at this time, Xuanyuan Yue was resting in the inner hall.

Shangguan Linlang stood at the door of the inner hall and said, "Your Majesty, the prince, he ...... Lord Wang...... ”

Hearing Shangguan Linlang mention King Jinchang, Xuanyuan Yue immediately got up from the dragon bed, put on boots and a coat and walked out, and asked eagerly, "Prince, what's wrong with him?" ”

Shangguan Linlang took out the secret letter from his body, handed it to Xuanyuan Yue, and said, "Your Majesty, let's see it for yourself!" ”

Xuanyuan Yue caught Mi Han, opened it and looked at it, she was so angry that she pinched Mi Han into a ball, and said angrily: "How can this be reasonable, this Xuanyuan Mu Jin is becoming more and more presumptuous, and he dares to act so boldly." After saying that, he hurried in the direction of the palace.

＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿

Shangguan Linlang followed behind Xuanyuan Yue and also came to the palace, at this time, Xuanyuan Mu Jin was sitting on a chair, lying on the bookcase, looking intently at the book of the art of war.

Xuanyuan Yue walked up to Xuanyuan Mujin silently, threw the secret han crumpled in his hand onto the bookcase, and said sarcastically: "The wishful thinking of the royal brother is really good!" It took a lot of thought! ”

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Mujin first looked at the secret letter, so he understood, and quickly stood up and explained: "Brother Huang, it's not what you think, you listen to my explanation...... Before he finished speaking, Xuanyuan Yue interrupted angrily: "Enough, I don't want to listen to your explanation, Brother Shangguan, take him down and put him in the prison of the Criminal Department." ”

Shangguan Linlang said: "Weichen obeys. Then he took Xuanyuan Mujin away.

＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿

Xuanyuan Mujin's usurpation of the throne is known to everyone.

At this time, Xuanyuan Yue was in the Divine Dragon Palace, he sat motionless on the dragon chair, and he didn't say a word, and the whole person looked a lot haggard.

The civil and military officials on both sides of the court held a wat board in both hands, held their chests flat, and stood very neatly.

At this time, the imperial doctor came out and said, "Your Majesty, the usurpation of the throne by King Jinchang is a capital crime and should be executed. ”

After the imperial doctor finished speaking, the prime minister came out and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that the execution is inappropriate, although King Jingchang colluded with other countries to plot to usurp the throne, but the plan has not been achieved, the execution is too serious, and it should be assigned to the frontier, and he will never be allowed to return to China." ”

Hearing this, the Imperial Doctor objected to the Prime Minister: "King Jingchang has the intention of usurping the throne, if he is not executed, there will be endless troubles, and it is difficult to ensure that he will not repeat it in the future." ”

The Prime Minister looked at the Imperial Doctor and said, "Whoever has not made a mistake should be given a chance to reform himself." ”

The Imperial Doctor sarcastically mocked the Prime Minister: "The Prime Minister speaks for the prince like this, so he can't be in the same league with the prince." ”

Hearing this, the prime minister trembled with anger, he pointed at the imperial doctor with his finger, and said angrily: "You...... Before the words were finished, at this moment, Xuanyuan Yue picked up the shocking wood on the dragon case, slapped it fiercely on the dragon case, and said angrily: "Enough, this is the court, not a place for you to fight." After saying that, the court suddenly fell silent.

After a while, Xuanyuan Yue's mood calmed down, and then asked Taiwei: "Why didn't Taiwei Aiqing say a word?" ”

Taiwei walked out and said: "Back to Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that it is most appropriate to imprison the prince in the palace, and he will never be allowed to take half a step out of the palace, and His Majesty can also monitor the prince's every move." ”

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Yue smiled slightly and said, "When I hear it now, I only feel that what Taiwei Aiqing said is very true, and I also have this intention. After speaking, he said to Gonggong Qian, who was standing next to him, "Xuan Shangguan Linlang entered the hall. ”

Father-in-law Qian walked out, faced the door of the hall, and shouted loudly: "Xuanshangguan Linlang enters the hall." ”

Hearing Gonggong Qian's voice, Shangguan Linlang, who was standing outside the hall gate, immediately walked in, faced Xuanyuan Yue, knelt down on one knee and saluted: "Weichen see Your Majesty." ”

"Flat." Xuanyuan Yue said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Shangguan Linlang finished speaking, and then stood up.

"Go and escort King Jingchang back to the palace, and from then on imprison him in the palace, send a few guards to guard it, in case he escapes, and send someone to deliver three meals a day."

Shangguan Linlang nodded and said, "Yes." Then he took a few steps back, turned and walked away quickly.

After Shangguan Linlang left, Xuanyuan Yue said to the civil and military officials under the court: "Retreat from the court." ”

"Yui." The civil and military officials said in unison.

＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿

A few days later, Xuanyuan Yue was in the Anshen Temple, sitting on a chair, checking the recital on the dragon case, at this moment, Shu Da hurriedly walked in, faced Xuanyuan Yue, knelt down on both knees, leaned down, and said, "Slave see Your Majesty." ”

Shu Da is a slave next to Xuanyuan Mujin, a middle-aged man.

Xuanyuan Yue raised her head and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Your Majesty, the prince has been not eating or drinking, and wants to commit suicide on a hunger strike, but the slave can't persuade him, and the slave has no choice, so he came to you." Shu Da said sadly.

Hearing this, before Xuanyuan Yue could speak, Shangguan Linlang, who was standing next to her, preemptively said: "Why doesn't this King Jinchang make people worry. ”

After Shangguan Linlang finished speaking, Xuanyuan Yue said to Father-in-law Qian who was standing next to him: "Father-in-law Qian, you go to the imperial dining room to serve some good wine and food, I want to visit him in person." ”

Father-in-law Qian said: "Only." Then he quickly left.

＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿

Father-in-law Qian held a jar of wine in one hand and a food box in the other, and followed Xuanyuan Yue to the palace.

At this time, Xuanyuan Yue saw Xuanyuan Mujin sitting on the edge of the bed, so she walked over and faced Xuanyuan Mujin.

Xuanyuan Mu Jin also saw Xuanyuan Yue, but he didn't salute Xuanyuan Yue or speak, and continued to sit on the edge of the bed.

Seeing this scene, Father-in-law Qian stepped forward and said angrily: "King Jinchang, Your Majesty came to see you in person with good wine and food, what is your attitude?" Do you really think Your Majesty won't dare to kill you? ”

A person who begs for death, will he care if others dare to kill?" Xuanyuan Mujin said.

At this time, Xuanyuan Yue said: "Since the death of the first emperor and my accession to the throne, all the major national affairs have been pressed on me, and I have to deal with those intrigues and intrigues every day. ”

Hearing these words, Xuanyuan Mu Jin stood up from the side of the bed and said excitedly: "You and I are brothers, how can my brother hurt you?" The younger brother just doesn't want to see that one day, the Qingyun country falls into the hands of others, the younger brother just wants to join forces with the Southern Shangguo and the Northern Suguo to deal with the Salar Kingdom, Yelu Nan dares to issue a war letter to our country so blatantly, the imperial brother will not really think that a night pearl and a city can make Yelu Nan satisfied? Doesn't the imperial brother know that what he wants is the whole country, your supreme power? ”

"I'm not a three-year-old child, so I don't know that since Yelu Nan gave me the black butterfly, I have already seen through his mind and have already made plans to take precautions."

Precautions? Didn't the imperial brother think of taking the initiative to attack? ”

"I hope to live in harmony, I have never thought of taking the initiative to attack other countries, if someone attacks my country, I will not let him succeed, I have patience, now it depends on whether Yelu Nan has the patience and I will continue to consume?" After Xuanyuan Yue finished speaking, she sighed and continued: "I think that you usurped the throne just to deal with the enemy country, I can forgive you, but I can't let you leave the palace, if the royal brother is bored, I will let Xiao'er and Zhen'er often come over to talk to you." ”

Hearing the names of the prince and princess, Xuanyuan Mujin said with a smile: "The younger brother hasn't seen the prince and the princess for a long time, and he must have grown a lot taller, especially the prince, who is the most naughty." ”

Then you have to eat, too, and if you starve to death, you won't see it." Xuanyuan Yue said.

At this time, Father-in-law Qian walked to the dining table, put the wine on the dining table first, then opened the food box, and brought the dishes to the dining table one by one.

Xuanyuan Mujin looked at the wine and food on the dining table, felt deeply guilty, knelt down on his knees, and apologized to Xuanyuan Yue: "Brother Huang, I'm sorry, my brother is confused for a while, so he will do something rebellious." ”

"I can forgive you, but only this once, not the next one, I am busy with official business, so I will go first." After Xuanyuan Yue finished speaking, she turned around and walked out the door.

Xuanyuan Mujin hurriedly stood up from the ground, sent Xuanyuan Yue and Father-in-law Qian out of the door, and then bowed and saluted: "Congratulations to Your Majesty." ”

＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿

A few days later, Xuanyuan Mujin sat on a chair, on the bookcase in front of the chair, there was a piece of rice paper about one meter long and fifty centimeters wide.

He hurriedly said to Shu Da, who was standing next to him: "It must be the prince and the princess who are coming, go and greet them." After speaking, he immediately put down the brush in his hand, stood up and went to greet Shu Da, and at this moment, the prince, the princess, and Shangguan Ping walked in together.

The prince's name is: Xuanyuan Yuxiao. Nine years old this year, wearing a blue brocade suit, embroidered with a little plum blossoms, a black belt around his waist, a black hair pulled up by a golden crown, inserted a hosta, leaving no strand of hair, and wearing a jade pendant around his neck, this jade pendant was given to him by his father when he was born, with a dragon engraved on it, and the words "Xuanyuan Yue" were also engraved.

The princess's name is: Xuanyuan Yuzhen. Twelve years old this year, wearing an orange long skirt, a white belt around the waist, a bow on the belt, a pair of bright eyes are Chu Chu moving, wearing a pearl necklace around his neck, bangs just raised eyebrows, a dragon and phoenix hairpin is inserted in the coiled green silk, leaving a few strands of green silk in his ears, and wearing a pair of orange earrings, lively and cute.

Shangguan Ping is the son of Shangguan Linlang, the personal guard of the prince and the princess, fifteen years old this year, wearing ink-colored clothes, a red gold ribbon tied around his waist, a three-meter divine whip, rolled into a circle, hanging on the right side of the waist, a short dagger tied to his right leg, a black hair coiled high, a wooden hairpin inserted, without a single hair, looks dignified.

Seeing that the three of them had already walked in, Shu Da hurriedly walked over, knelt down on his knees, leaned down, and said, "Slave see His Royal Highness the Prince, see the princess." ”

Xuanyuan Mu Jin also hurriedly walked over, bowed and saluted: "The minister sees His Royal Highness the Prince, and the princess." ”

Xuanyuan Yuxiao hurriedly saluted Xuanyuan Mujin and said, "My nephew has come to see Uncle Wang." ”

"My niece meets Uncle Wang." Xuanyuan Yuzhen also returned the salute.

After saluting, Xuanyuan Yuxiao pulled Xuanyuan Mujin's sleeve and said coquettishly: "Uncle Wang hasn't come to play with his nephew for so long, my nephew misses you so much." As soon as she finished speaking, Xuanyuan Yuzhen picked up and said, "My niece also misses Uncle Wang." ”

Hearing the words of the prince and princess, Xuanyuan Mujin said with a smile: "Uncle Wang misses you too, but I was too busy before, and I haven't visited you for a long time." ”

At this moment, Xuanyuan Yuzhen found the painting on the bookcase, then walked over, picked up the painting with both hands, looked at it carefully, and said, "Uncle Wang's painting is really good, better than that painted by my father." ”

"Your father was still taught by Uncle Wang!" Xuanyuan Hibiscus said proudly.

"Uncle Wang, my nephew also wants to paint, and my nephew also wants to paint." Xuanyuan Yuxiao pulled the sleeve of Xuanyuan Hibiscus, shook it, and said coquettishly.

"Okay, Uncle Wang will teach you to draw a rabbit." Xuanyuan Hibiscus said with a smile on his face.

"Nephew don't draw rabbits, nephews should draw Uncle Wang, nephews should draw Uncle Wang." Xuanyuan Yuxiao shook his head and said.

"Okay, well, draw Uncle Wang, draw Uncle Wang." After Xuanyuan Hibiscus finished speaking, he then walked to the bookcase, took a boxy piece of rice paper, placed it on the bookcase, and then took the brush to Xuanyuan Yuxiao.

Xuanyuan Yuxiao took the brush in Xuanyuan Mujin's hand, then sat on the chair and scribbled on the paper, he first drew a large round ball, then drew a few small round balls in the big round ball, and finally drew a few mustaches underneath.

Seeing this scene, Xuanyuan Yuzhen and Shangguan Ping laughed, and after laughing, Xuanyuan Yuzhen said to Xuanyuan Yuxiao: "Which is Uncle Wang?" Cats are not cats or dogs, and Uncle Wang doesn't have a beard! ”

At this time, Xuanyuan Mujin shook his head, hugged Xuanyuan Yuxiao in his arms, then sat on the chair, pinched Xuanyuan Yuxiao's nose with his hand, and said with a smile: "Xiao'er is the most naughty, with the two of you accompanying Uncle Wang, this palace!" It's going to be lively from now on! ”
