Chapter 408: Heartless Words
The bell of the Big Buddha Temple rang one after another, accompanied by the sound of the bell, it was the cheers of the huge Luoyang City, and the new year was coming in this heavy snowfall. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Luoyang City rare curfew, since the death of the Emperor of the Apocalypse in the year, Luoyang has been implementing the curfew policy, lifted the curfew of Luoyang lights, whether it is a rich official, or a poor people, are hung at the door of two red lanterns, the difference is only the fine workmanship and the quality of the material.
In the past, the lively Anguo Mansion is now deserted, and a large family has gone to Yizhou's hometown, leaving Anguo Gongkong to guard the huge mansion, two red lanterns at the door are swaying in the wind, the old man has already locked the door, retracted his sleeves back into the room, and enjoyed it with a pot of good wine and a few dishes of food.
In the study, the fine white charcoal fire is burning vigorously, the room is warm, the white-haired An Guogong sits alone by the charcoal fire, with a thick woolen blanket wrapped in his legs, holding tongs in his hand, and is turning over the charcoal fire for a while, on the desk next to him, there is a complete set of tea sets, in the small stove, the firewood cut into small sections with fine sandalwood is peeled and burned, but the water in the kettle is boiling.
There was a gentle knock on the door of the study, and An Guogong raised a pair of somewhat cloudy old eyes, "Coming?" Come on in! β
The door was pushed open, Qingfeng appeared at the door with a smile on his face, stepped into the study, and bowed to An Guogong Yingying, "Qingfeng has seen An Guogong's boss!" Behind her, Zhong Jing's shadow also appeared, silently giving a military salute to An Guogong.
The wrinkles on the face of the old An Guogong with overlapping wrinkles stretched out one by one, and he smiled: "What is the little girl doing so solemnly?" Come in, sit, the old man is very happy today, he is saying that he wants to keep the New Year alone, you are here, wonderful, the old man is not lonely tonight! β
Qingfeng smiled, walked to An Guogong's side, knelt behind the small desk, and said with a smile: "Is this tea set prepared for me by Grandpa Guo?" β
An Guogong smiled, "Of course, some time ago, the emperor rewarded me with two taels of good tea, but I don't know anything about the tea ceremony, I don't want to spoil such a good thing, I have long heard that you are very good at the tea ceremony, I heard that you are coming, the old man is happy, and he has already set up this set of household goods, just waiting for you to come." But I didn't want to wait until this time to wait for you to come. β
Qingfeng skillfully placed the tea sets one by one and began to clean the tea sets, "An Guogong has a big face, and the outside of the New Year is still protecting your old man layer by layer, and it is really not easy to come in!" β
An Guogong said with a smile: "Don't you still come in, the investigation department has great powers, and it is worthy of its reputation!" β
"The left and right are just some chickens and dogs, and they can enter your eyes!" Qingfeng said while making tea. A pair of jade wrists flew up and down, and in the blink of an eye, four or five small cups of jade tea had been brewed and pushed in front of An Guogong.
Picked up a small cup of tea, regardless of whether it was hot or not, poured it into his mouth, swirled in his mouth, and swallowed it with a grunt, "Good tea!" An Guogong praised and glanced at Qingfeng, "The craftsmanship is better!" β
Qingfeng smiled and owed a debt: "More body An Guogong praises!" β
Stretched out his hand and picked up another lamp, An Guogong was not in a hurry to drink, and squinted at Qingfeng: "As soon as Mingyan went, you entered Beijing immediately, is there anything important that needs to be informed to the old man?" β
Qingfeng smiled slightly, "Two things, one is a happy event, and the other is a sad thing for Qingfeng, I can't figure it out, so I came to ask the old man to solve my doubts!" β
An Guogong raised his eyebrows, "You can't figure it out?" With your intelligence, if you don't understand, I'm afraid that it will be in vain to get to the old man! β
"My general has always said that if there is an old man in the family, it is like a treasure, you have eaten more salt than I have eaten, and you have crossed more bridges than I walked. The breeze smiled and smiled.
An Guogong laughed, "You little girl, you can pat yourself on the back, okay, okay, let's talk about happy events first, what makes you so happy?" β
Qingfeng straightened his sleeves and said, "My general has just added a great-grandson to your grandfather." β
"Great-grandson, good!" An Guogong was overjoyed, "The Li family has added a new ding." When the floating three whites! Grabbed a few cups of tea on the case, connected and poured it into his mouth, "Is it your sister Yunrong?" β
Qingfeng lowered her head slightly, "Yes, it is the sister Yunrong who came out, and the princess of Allure will probably wait until March or April after the year to give birth!" β
An Guogong's dim old eyes suddenly brightened, and his deep eyes stared at Qingfeng who was hanging his head in front of him, as if he felt An Guogong's gaze, Qingfeng raised his head, and his clear eyes looked at An Guogong without showing weakness, the corners of his mouth were tightened, and a stubborn look appeared on his face.
An Guogong sighed, looked away, looked at the charcoal fire with a faint green light, lifted the tongs and fiddled a few times, "Although the old man doesn't go out, I still know something about your affairs in Dingzhou." β
Qingfeng smiled calmly, "Old man Mingjian, some things Qingfeng can't help himself, Ah Jing often told me before, people in the rivers and lakes, self-help, we are all people who have entered the scene, the old man is a person who has come over, I must be able to understand!" β
A wry smile appeared at the corner of An Guogong's mouth, "That's not bad, but the balance in this is to be grasped just right." β
"This breeze is saved!" Qingfeng said without hesitation.
"Alright, alright!" An Guogong shook his head, "Don't talk about these things, but you talk about things that you can't figure out, but the old man is very curious, which can stump you, but arouse the old man's competitiveness." β
Qingfeng took out a stack of documents from his arms and said, "Grandpa Guo, this is part of the material I have abridged, as well as some of my analysis, you can take a look first!" β
Zhong Jing moved the candle flame to the side of the desk, An Guogong opened the thick stack of documents, and after only reading a few pages, his face changed slightly. He glanced up at the breeze that was brewing tea there again, and lowered his head to read the things that shocked him.
An hour passed in a hurry, An Guogong put down the document in his hand and let out a long breath, "This is your judgment?" β
Qingfeng nodded, "Later, I thought carefully with the general, and I thought it was very possible. If it is really as we guessed, many things that we did not understand before would be solved, but there is one thing that the general and I cannot understand. Why is that? Why did he do it? β
An Guogong narrowed his eyes, "I don't understand it either." This makes no sense. β
"The first emperor died violently, as the grandfather of the country, he should be the one who has seen the body of the first emperor, right?" Qingfeng asked.
"What do you say?" An Guogong said with a smile: "A fire in the Taiji Hall burned everything beyond recognition, although it has undergone plastic surgery by the palace physician, it can only be argued." β
"Those imperial doctors must be dead, right?" Qingfeng Channel.
An Guogong nodded. "From the silhouette of the figure and the objects that he carries, there is no doubt about the first emperor, besides, the queen is the most familiar person with the first emperor, and there should be no mistake with her confirmation. So, I think your inference is a bit untenable. β
Qingfeng shook his head with some annoyance, "So it's impossible for the first emperor to sneak!" β
An Guogong nodded.
"Grandpa Guo, what if the queen mother knows the inside story, what if she conspires with the two emperors?" Zhong Jing, who had been silent, interjected suddenly.
An Guogong raised his head and glanced at Zhong Jing, his eyes were full of shock, and with a snap, the tongs in his hand fell into the brazier, splashing a large puff of sparks.
Zhong Jing's unintentional words shocked both An Guogong and Qingfeng at this time. Zhong Jing said this because she didn't know the background of the queen's life, but it was this unconscious sentence that made the two people in the room suddenly think of another possibility.
The queen's surname is Xiang, and she is the daughter of the Great Chumen lord Xiang, and the Xiang family is another major force that conspired with the Xiao family to launch a palace coup this time, if the queen mother knows, then the Xiang family must know, and the Xiang family knows that this coup d'Γ©tat was also launched, then the significance of this is self-evident.
"If that's the case, the Shaw family is in danger!" An Guogong muttered.
"If that's the case, then Apocalypse's goal isn't just Xiao Clan." Qingfeng muttered, "He wants to take one and mobilize the whole body, so that all the gate valve clans of Great Chu will join in this battle, and in the midst of countless wars and deaths, the gate valve clan will be swept away!" β
The two of them glanced at each other, and their eyes showed a look of horror, if this was true, then the Li family was also among the purges.
An Guogong stood up, "Does the first emperor have such great courage?" In order to revive the royal family, he was willing to give up even his own throne? β
Now that Emperor Zhaoqing has ascended the throne, if Tianqi really cheats to death and stealthily plots the world, even if he succeeds, it is impossible for him to re-ascend the throne and depose his son again, after all, he is already a dead man in the world. If he reascends to the throne, it is not true that he will tell the world that the wars over the years have plunged the entire Great Chu into war, displaced the people, and killed thousands of people, all of which are controlled by him, so that the emperor's prestige will still be gone.
"If you are willing to give up, you will get if you are willing to give up, the general once said to me that the Emperor of the Apocalypse is by no means a fool, maybe he really has to be a man with great courage." Qingfeng Channel.
An Guogong was a little confused, and took a few turns in the study, Emperor Tianqi was supported by him and Xiao Shi and other gate valves, for no other reason, because Tianqi was compared with King Ning, everyone felt that Tianqi was easier to control, and King Ning was much more outstanding in talent and courage, but now it seems that all of them were blind back then. If the apocalypse is really alive, then plan this earth-shattering situation, and make corresponding preparations, and it is very likely that the apocalypse will start planning soon after he ascends the throne. Ten years, Apocalypse has enough time to arrange everything and calculate all the possibilities.
