In the afternoon, news came from the palace that Emperor Jianping had woken up. As a result, the cars and horses in the capital were sluggish for a while, and from time to time you could see people who looked like family members galloping away, speeding through the crowd.

When Ye Nanqing received the news, he was slightly stunned, rubbing a piece of jade that had been played crystal clear, and indifferently ordered: "Go and tell Lord Yu Shiling of Zuodu that the fact of the prince's education is related to the solidity of the country, the safety of the society, and the danger of the family and country, and there is no room for the slightest slackness." Xia Ge is getting older and older, and he is afraid that he has the heart but is powerless, and it is difficult to take on this great responsibility. The Imperial History of the First Department of Science and Technology should exercise his duty and advise His Majesty to choose another person of merit. ”

"Yes, sir. The old slave will do it. An old servant bowed down and listened, and then turned to leave.

"Wait! I'll write another letter, and you will send it to Master Shangshu Yi of the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Eunuch Xu Sacrificial Wine Mansion. Remember, you have to hand it over to Lord Yi and Xu Xian Wine in person. After speaking, Ye Nanqing took the pen to write, and after a while, the fly-headed small letters covered the entire letter paper.

Xia Guoyuan also received the news of Emperor Jianping's awakening at the first time, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Now is the time when he is at his weakest, and he is supported by his former fame. If you're not careful, you'll lose everything. At this time, if Emperor Jianping fell, then he could only set off again to retire in disgrace, and he would never have a chance to turn over again in this life. He asked slowly, "How is the emperor's complexion?" ”

"Back to the master, there was news from the palace that the emperor had just woken up and was relatively weak. According to the imperial doctor, the emperor's body is no longer in serious trouble, but he still has to recuperate for a period of time. ”

Xia Guoyuan completely let go of his heart, and then said: "Well, if there is anything in the future, come and report it at any time." Go to the account office and withdraw five thousand taels of silver tickets and send them to the palace people. Alright, go down. ”

When King Jing received the news that Emperor Jianping had woken up, his face was full of disappointment. If Emperor Jianping can't wake up, then the possibility of him ascending to the throne will be very high, and now it is far away. However, he was still a little glad in his heart, fortunately he didn't take it upon himself to contact the military, otherwise it would be difficult to talk about later. Thinking of this, he was still a little uneasy, and ordered loudly outside: "Go and find Mr. Xixi Li, and say that this king has something important to discuss with him." ”

A quarter of an hour later, Xixi Li Youyu hurriedly entered the study, bowed down with a sigh of relief, and asked, "Li Youyu greets the prince." I don't know what the prince called to come down? ”

King Jing motioned for him to close the door of the study, and then said, "Mr. Li, you found a relationship to meet Jing'an Hou before. What happened next? ”

Li Youyu replied: "Back to the prince's words, I met Jing'anhou last time with the relationship between my father, and hinted at him a little. However, he deliberately played haha, and did not say it directly, he should have wanted to continue to wait and see the situation. Later, when he wanted to see him again, Jing'anhou had been living in the barracks and had not returned home, so he never made the trip. ”

"Oh? What does Mr. Jing Anhou mean? King Jing frowned slightly, feeling a little unhappy. Jing Anhou was so perfunctory that he directly lost his face.

"Lord Wang, it's normal for Jing Anhou to behave like this, after all, this is a matter related to hundreds of people in his family, and it is impossible to agree easily. In between, it is still necessary to make persistent efforts to win over Jing'anhou in order to cope with future changes. Speaking of this, Li Youyu became a little excited, and his face flushed slightly, "Lord Wang, now is a good opportunity!" The emperor is unconscious above the court, and everyone will definitely talk about it, and this is the time to win people's hearts. It can be guaranteed that if you persuade Jing'anhou at this time, you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort. Moreover, it is not enough to rely on Jing'anhou, but also to get the support of other military figures. ”

King Jing was so moved by what he said, but when he thought of the masked man's statement, his heart began to become entangled.

Seeing this, Li Youyu already knew in his heart, and he didn't say more. He knew the psychology of the proprietor very well, and his heart was higher than the sky, but it was difficult to make a decision, so he silently said in his heart: "In this case, let me come." ”

Sure enough, King Jing hesitated for a long time before saying, "Let's talk about this matter later, don't take action for the time being, sir." The emperor has woken up this afternoon. ”

"Yes." Even so, Li Youyu still did not give up the idea in his heart. After all, the emperor will be unconscious this time, and he will be unconscious next time, and maybe he will never wake up next time.

Yao Nai had just had dinner and was walking alone in the backyard, quietly watching the leaves on the trees fall to the ground one by one. Looking up at the few scattered leaves left on the branches, his face was a little gloomy, and he sighed slightly and said, "Alas, the days don't wait for anyone!" If I continue like this, I'll die of old age. ”

At this time, a trusted servant came over to report: "Master, there is news from the palace. ”

He took a note and saw the news that Emperor Jianping had woken up, his brows dissipated a little, and he smiled hesitantly: "Xia Guoyuan, Ye Nanqing, you masters and apprentices should fight well, and see who is better in the end." ”

That night, Sun Yongcheng sat alone in the study, playing with a small paper ball in his hand, and the expression on his face was cloudy. The study was unusually quiet, and from time to time you could hear the slight popping sound of the candle burning core. Because he had no special relationship, he had just learned from a close friend that the emperor had woken up in the afternoon. Knowing that the news had been delayed for so long made him even more aware of his low status. After a while, he opened the paper ball again and looked at the words on it fixedly: King Jing has a plan, intending to peek at Dabao. At this time, there were a few bangs in the distance, and it was already the third watch. Sun Yongcheng's face gradually became resolute, after all, if he missed this time, there would never be another opportunity. So, he dipped his brush in ink and wrote the blank folds that had already been rolled out.

"The ministers and grandsons will continue to cry blood, and the emperor will be enlightened. A few days ago, the emperor was sick and fell into a coma in the court. All of a sudden, people's hearts were in turmoil and rumors were shouting. Even the people were also panicked and prayed for the emperor. Lai Huangtian is fortunate and blessed by God. However, the matter could not be relieved, and the remainder was always endangered. King Jing stayed in the capital for a long time for a year and a half. He often enters the people and acts hypocrisy, and attracts customers and accumulates talents. What you think about is obvious. Because of this, among the people, King Jing is known but not His Majesty...... In the long run, the country will not be a country...... I hope that Your Majesty will not be despicable to his ministers, and will issue an edict urging King Jing to return to his station. Although the minister is dead, there is no regret! ”

The next day, the fold was already on Emperor Jianping's desk. Because of "being sick", he asked Ma Desheng to read the recital.

Ma Desheng picked up Sun Yongcheng's recital, and when he glanced at it, he was so frightened that he couldn't speak, and he was really afraid of angering the emperor. After a while, he began to read the memora in a trembling voice.

Emperor Jianping, who was in a coma a few days ago by this incident, quietly listened to Ma Desheng finish reading the recital, and then said lightly: "Proposed purpose, Sun Yongcheng will be appointed as the prefect of Yangzhou, and he will leave for office on the same day." Liu Mingcheng, the current governor of Yangzhou, returned to Beijing to take up his post. ”
