Chapter 276: The Emperor's Family Affairs
When a basin of cold water was poured on the head, the king of the East Sea jumped up violently and shouted, "I'm desperate! I'm so desperate! It's my uncle...... It's Cui Hong......"
The stranger in front of him was not Princess Tan, and the King of the East China Sea asked vigilantly and surprised, "Who are you?" Then I looked left and right, this was indeed my home, dizzy, the soles of my feet were floating, the strength of the wine had not passed, and it was just a little dark outside.

"Please come with me, His Royal Highness the King of the East China Sea."
"Why should I go with you? Who are you? ”
"Your Majesty has summoned you to the palace."
The King of the East China Sea was shocked, and his face turned pale, "I only set off tomorrow, why did you summon me into the palace today?" ”
The stranger's face was expressionless, "You'll know when you enter the palace." ”
"What about the edict? What about the will? You, you are a guard, not a eunuch in the palace......" The more the king of the East China Sea thought about it, the more panicked he became, and he couldn't help but ask for help, but suddenly remembered that no one could save him anymore, and the palace had changed from officials to slaves, except for the princess Tan, he didn't know anyone.
The strange guard looked quiet, not in a hurry at all, he could enter the mansion, and he had already proved his identity.
The King of the East China Sea also understood this truth, and calmed down a little, "I'll go and talk to the princess." ”
"No, the princess is also going to be edicted to enter the palace, and she should have already gotten into the sedan chair."
"Let me ...... Wash your face and change your clothes. "The King of the East Sea really can't find any other reason.
When washing his face and changing his clothes, the king of the East China Sea poured out countless schemes in his heart, none of which could succeed, and countless fantasies appeared, thinking that someone would suddenly jump out to save him, until everything was ready, and no miracle happened, the servants were respectful, unlike hidden martial arts masters, the corners and roofs were clean, and it was not like someone would jump out.
The King of the East China Sea suddenly understood that he was really helpless.
The guards urged again, the king of the East China Sea had no choice but to set off, the drunkenness was all gone, and when he left the mansion, he turned back step by step, he did not live in this palace for long, but at the moment he was nostalgic, and he really wanted to fall down, and he would not go out if he was killed.
There were more guards outside the gate, and there were two sedan chairs parked, and the king of the East Sea wanted to go and say a word to the Tan family, but was politely invited by the guards to get on the sedan chair.
The king of the East China Sea was fluctuating along the way, his body collapsed for a while, and he was tense for a while, and when he got off the sedan chair, he almost didn't even have the strength to walk.
He was sent to an independent small courtyard in the palace, and he was the only one when he got off the sedan chair, and Tan didn't know where he was sent.
Han Ruzi was busy all day, and it wasn't until the second watch that he took the time to meet the King of the East China Sea, and as soon as they met, he asked, "What's wrong with you?" Haven't eaten? Or have you just practiced martial arts? ”
The king of the East China Sea didn't know where he got the courage, so he stood up on the ground, "If you want to kill, you will kill, you will chop...... In short, I am not afraid of you, sooner or later, your ugly deeds will be exposed to the world, and everyone will know about it......"
Courage ran out, and the East Sea King slumped in his chair.
Han Ruzi smiled: "My ugly thing? Then he shook his head, "If I want to kill you, I will do it openly, and I will never quietly summon you into the palace." ”
The king of the East China Sea was stunned for a moment, and when he thought about it, the other party was already the emperor, either he faked someone else, or he was convicted of death, there was no need to play with other means, his heart was greatly relaxed, and he almost cried, "You...... What is Your Majesty looking for me? ”
"There's a strange thing happening in the palace, and I'm going to discuss it with you."
The King of the East Sea was stunned again, "I didn't do it." ”
"I haven't said what it is."
"Whatever matters to me, I am now more honest than a well-fed dog, and those people you sent to the palace can testify that I have done nothing but drink, eat, and sleep, and I have not seen any outsiders. Really, I am willing to gamble and lose, I know what to do for the prince and grandson who have failed to compete for the throne - spend my life in wine, wine I have already begun, color ...... Wait a minute. ”
Han Ruzi laughed, "Now you are addicted to wine, you are still too young, why don't you help me calm the world and make a career?" ”
The king of the East China Sea looked left and right, and there were no outsiders in the room, "If you have something to say, let it be clear, Your Majesty is the emperor, I am a courtier, even if Your Majesty asks me to commit suicide, I don't dare to say a word, and I don't need to be kind enough to win me over." ”
Han Ruzi sat on the other side, picked up the herbal tea on the table, and poured himself a cup, "The Taizu Sword is missing." ”
"What?"
"Taizu Sword."
"The one in the cloak room?"
"Hmm."
"How could it be...... Your Majesty doesn't suspect me, does you? ”
"You stormed the palace with people that night."
"But I haven't been to the clothing room, and it's useless for me to ask for the Taizu Sword, even if it is used to call on the ministers, it should be revealed at that time, and it doesn't mean anything to me to hide it."
Han Ruzi was not suspicious of the East China Sea King from the beginning, "What about the Tan family?" ”
"Tan family? I can't guarantee that, it was very confusing at the time...... Oh, so you summoned the princess into the palace as well, you, you...... Your Majesty is the emperor, and the princess is your majesty's brother-in-law, you can't mess around. ”
Han Ruzi smiled bitterly: "What is going on in your head?" The princess had gone to the dressing room with the queen that night. ”
The King of the East China Sea remembered, and the princess told him about the experience of that night, "Yang Feng, Your Majesty should ask Yang Feng, he has been tied to the pillar outside the clothes, if someone enters or leaves, it is impossible for him not to see it." ”
Han Ruzi had asked a long time ago, Yang Feng didn't see anything, of course Han Ruzi chose to believe, "The key is that I don't know when the sword was transferred, and it was definitely not the time when Yang Feng was imprisoned." ”
"Hey, the emperor shouldn't trust any...... I didn't say it. Finding that he didn't have to worry about his life, the King of the East China Sea was much more relieved and was able to seriously think about the emperor's question, "Thinking about it the other way, what is the use of the Taizu Sword?" It was just a relic left by our ancestors. ”
"It's useless to the vast majority of people, but it has a little meaning to me and the general Han Xing."
"Oh, by the way, you had someone bring out the Taizu Sword, and after Han Xing took the sword, he pacified the chaos in the palace...... It turned out that this is how he was assassinated. The king of the East China Sea suddenly realized that he forgot to address "Your Majesty".
Han Ruzi knew the king of the East China Sea and knew that the other party's surprise was real, "Originally, I thought that it was the treasure seal that was used, but now it seems that the Taizu sword is more likely, and the assassin probably took the sword to see the general, and the general mistakenly thought that it was the person I sent......"
"Tomorrow when you go out and find Han Xing's guards, you will know how he died." The king of the East China Sea was still a little nervous, feeling that his idea was too simple, the emperor must have thought of it, thought for a while, and said, "Your Majesty doubts the Tan family? ”
"The assassination is more like a means of the rivers and lakes, the Tan family and the Hua family are all possible, and Yang Feng thinks it is done by the hopeful."
The King of the East Sea sneered, "Lin Kunshan? If he has this kind of ability, I won't ......" The King of the East Sea secretly vowed to keep his mouth shut, "Okay, I can go and talk to the princess, if the Tan family is really involved, she should have heard of it." But I have to make a guarantee. ”
"I don't promise the Tan family, but for the princess, I can pardon her again."
The King of the East Sea stared at the emperor for a while, "Okay, shall I go now?" ”
Han Ruzi nodded, he had to find out the truth as soon as possible.
The King of the East Sea walked out, suddenly stopped and turned around, "My mother ......"
"Concubine Cui, Prince Yong's orphan, and Champion Hou will be buried at the same time, probably ten days later."
Han Jie – also known as Han Wei – was not recognized for his short career as emperor, and he would have been known as the "orphan of Prince Yong" in the history of Great Chu.
The King of the East China Sea held back the grief and indignation in his heart, "I heard that she was ...... Poisoned? ”
"I didn't ask." Han Ruzi said, this is the truth, since you still have to respect the Queen Mother, some things can't be asked too clearly, but since the Queen Mother blames the death of Emperor Si on Concubine Cui, it is inevitable to poison the enemy in the same way.
The king of the East China Sea didn't say anything, and walked out of the room, and naturally someone outside took him to see the princess.
Han Ruzi sat alone in the room, and the rooms in the palace were all surprisingly similar, but the size and furnishings were different, but each had its own name, and there were countless palaces, pavilions, pavilions, and courtyards, and Han Ruzi couldn't remember it at all.
Not long after, the King of the East China Sea came back, his face was blue and red, as if he had been scolded.
"The princess said that she didn't take the sword, and the queen was also there at the time, and they left after saving Yang Feng, and no one entered the dressing room, so it was impossible to take anything."
Han Ruzi had already heard the details from Cui Xiaojun, and he had no doubts about the Tan family, "What about the rest of the Tan family?" ”
The king of the East China Sea muttered a few words, "The princess doesn't know, she said...... She said......"
"Say what?"
The King of the East China Sea finally mustered up his courage, "She said that Your Majesty should not only be busy pacifying the world and looking for the Taizu Sword, but should also take care of family affairs when you have time." ”
"Huh?" Han Ruzi was stunned, Tan's courage was indeed not small, but the words he said were a little inexplicable.
"Your Majesty doesn't know yet? Didn't the queen mention it? ”
Han Ruzi's gaze was a little stern, and the king of the East China Sea immediately said: "Count me too much, the princess said nonsense, I see that she is also a little abnormal now, and what she says may not be credible......"
"You're leaving the capital tomorrow, you like the palace so much, let's stay here for one night." Han Ruzi did not ask, but persuaded the king of the East China Sea to rest.
To the ears of the King of the East China Sea, this was more like some kind of threat, knowing that he would not be able to tease the emperor after all, he blurted out: "Wang Meiren...... The Queen Mother wants to get rid of the Queen. ”
Wang Meiren has not yet received the title of Queen Mother, and the King of the East China Sea added it to her first.
Han Ruzi squinted slightly, and the king of the East China Sea was even more afraid, "The princess said that she and the queen went to the queen mother's bedroom for help that night, and it was the queen mother who guarded the door, she refused to open the door, and said that the queen was there, and it would be difficult for Your Majesty to do anything to the Cui family in the future." If Yang Feng hadn't found the palace guards in time, the queen and princess would probably really die at the hands of the Su guards. I heard that the Humble Heart Courtyard was burned down, and the queen has been living there, and she was lucky to have escaped. Of course, what the princess said may not be accurate, I didn't see ...... with my own eyes."
"That's enough." Han Ruzi stood up, "Tomorrow, all the people of the Tan family, regardless of men, women, young and old, will follow the army on the road and move to the East China Sea Country with you." ”
The King of the East China Sea was taken aback, "That's not what the Holy Decree says. ”
"There will be a new decree tomorrow morning."
"But...... How can it be in time? There wasn't even a little time to prepare. ”
"The Tan family has nothing to prepare, just go on the road." Han Ruzi no longer explained, and walked out, he would never leave suspicious people in the capital.
The King of the East China Sea was dumbfounded, although he should be ruthless when he saw the emperor, but seeing that the person who became ruthless was Han Ruzi and not himself, he still couldn't accept it.
Han Ruzi was escorted by the guards to the dormitory, and his heart had never been so hesitant as now.
He believed Tan's words, but he didn't know how to talk to his mother and the queen. (To be continued.) )
