The noon sun is dazzling, and a corner of the imperial city is secluded and peaceful.

Wei Dequan leaned against the big stone in front of the gate of the Que Ru Temple, and closed his eyes in a daze. Being illuminated by the warm sun, he felt lazy all over, and it was so comfortable that he wanted to sleep here.

It's a pity that he accompanied the saint here early in the morning, and he also didn't have time to eat breakfast, and the morning passed, and he was so hungry that he couldn't sleep even if he wanted to.

While complaining, he suddenly heard the sound of pushing the door, which startled Wei Dequan and almost didn't roll directly to the ground.

Rubbing his eyes, he saw the familiar bright yellow figure emerging from inside the door, and Wei Dequan hurriedly greeted him: "Your Majesty." ”

He said and glanced secretly into the door, but unexpectedly didn't see other figures, and couldn't help but feel a little strange, didn't the fifth prince come out with the emperor?

"Let's go back." Si Chengyue put his hands behind his back, spoke in a deep voice, and then walked straight forward.

Since he left the hall gate, he lowered his eyes and immersed himself in his thoughts, and he didn't look at Wei Dequan, so naturally he didn't notice his small movements.

"Yes." Wei Dequan answered, bowed down to follow, although there were doubts in his heart, he didn't dare to ask anything.

After walking slowly for a while, Si Chengyue suddenly paused, startling Wei Dequan behind him, and almost didn't have time to stop his footsteps and hit him directly.

"Wei Dequan, you say, I did that six years ago, is it right or wrong?" Si Chengyue's voice sounded a little sad and a little uncertain.

What did he refer to in the way of Weide's all-nature, he thought for a moment before he considered it and said: "The status of the slave is humble, and he does not dare to make assumptions, but there is one thing, the slave can be sure. That is, no matter what the emperor does, there must be the emperor's own considerations, and it must be for the good of the prince. ”

Si Chengyue listened to his words and was silent for a moment before speaking in a low voice.

"It's a pity that ......" spit out these three words, he paused, and then sighed heavily, "Alas, it's just ......"

What is the pity?

Si Chengyue didn't say it, and Wei Dequan naturally didn't have the courage to ask. Seeing that the person in front of him had taken another step, he hurriedly followed silently.

And the bright yellow figure fell in Wei Dequan's eyes at this moment, but it was contaminated with an inexplicable aura.

Since Si Chengyue entered the East Palace, Wei Dequan has been by his side, witnessing him step by step from a prince with both ability and integrity to the supreme emperor.

This natural king has always been arrogant in the world, except for the time when Ru Concubine Niangniang went to the big eighteen years ago, in my impression, Wei Dequan This is the second time, seeing his back so decadent, with a touch of sadness.

Thinking of this, Wei De couldn't help but sigh slightly.

People say that it is the most ruthless emperor's family.

But are they really ruthless? Wei Dequan thought, maybe it's just because their love is too extravagant and heavy, and in this life, they can only give one of those ten thousand people, right?

And this answer, perhaps, is known only by God, by earth, and by their own hearts.

Si Chengyue's affairs of the court, like a huge wave, swept the entire court and the opposition in an instant, even the harem was no exception. Everyone is speculating about what happened to make the emperor not come to court.

After all, Si Chengyue has been diligent in government and love the people since he ascended the throne, not to mention that he can't go to the court, he hasn't even been late or left early, but today he suddenly ordered to be exempted from the court! This is something that has never happened before, and it is the first time that a real big girl has been on a sedan chair.

For a while, the ministers and concubines discussed a lot, and they were all secretly speculating about the reasons for this. However, before they could be surprised by this matter, Si Chengyue issued a holy decree at noon, which completely shocked and incredulous everyone.

The holy decree said that the prince of Min, Si Yunyin, will be appointed as the squire of the criminal department from now on, and will enter the palace in the early court in the future to discuss state affairs with the emperor and ministers.

This holy decree was like a thunderbolt, which blew up the entire government and the opposition a little at a loss.

Originally, the prince also held an official position, and such a thing has never been uncommon, such as King Wen, who has positions in both the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Households.

It's just that this time the situation is a bit special, because this object is not someone else, but the five princes, the legendary five princes who are powerless and extremely unpopular!

The fifth prince has not stepped into the palace since he was crowned queen six years ago, which is a well-known thing in the world, and almost everyone thinks that he is equivalent to being exiled by the emperor, but the scope is within Jingzhou. And he himself, according to legend, is also seriously ill, time is short, he rarely goes out of the house on weekdays, and his personality is also extremely withdrawn and cold. If it weren't for the appearance of Mingxiang Juxian Festival some time ago, everyone would have forgotten his existence.

However, he suddenly appeared now, and as soon as he appeared, he held an important position in the criminal department, which simply shocked everyone's attention.

What is the Criminal Department? That's what you say you can do to whomever you want!

What's going on? Is the court about to change?

Although a person's strength and influence are not so great, let alone that this person is still a person who has never participated in political affairs. But for some reason, a faint uneasiness suddenly arose in everyone's hearts, and under the guidance and spread of this uneasiness, they couldn't help but think of an extremely important matter, that is-

The position of the prince!

Si Chengyue had eight sons, in addition to the eldest died early, the seventh had no intention of imperial power, and traveled all over the world in his early years, and now there are six left, the most outstanding of which are the third and fourth.

However, the fourth child has always been on the march to fight, and he is recognized by Lieyun as a general.

And the third prince Si Yun is outstanding, Wen Cheng Wude, and is the best candidate for the prince in everyone's minds, which cannot be said to be expected. But to this day, I haven't seen Si Chengyue have any intention in this regard.

The "birth" of Si Yunyin, the fifth prince, added an unpredictable color to the already confusing position of the prince. Many old people in the court suddenly thought of Si Yunyin's mother and concubine.

I think that the concubine was constantly favored by the emperor back then, and she was extremely favored by the emperor. Si Chengyue even wanted to set up the East and West Palaces for a while, so that she could sit on an equal footing with the queen. It's a pity that the concubine has a thin life, eighteen years ago, because of dystocia, she died after giving birth to the fifth prince.

Speaking of which, when the fifth prince was young, the emperor's favor for him far exceeded that of other princes. But this attitude suddenly changed six years ago, and since then, the king has been out of the palace, and the relationship between father and son has been broken.

Now that the fifth prince has appeared in everyone's field of vision again, but he has held an important position, which can't help but make people feel a little strange. Then I think of the changes six years ago, could it be that there is something hidden in it?

It didn't take long for the news that the fifth prince had entered the palace early this morning. The emperor rushed to Que Ru Hall without the court and talked with the five princes for a morning, which became an open secret of the government and the opposition.

It's just that what they talked about, no one knows.

Because no one knows, it is more and more reverie.

Everyone is speculating, but I am afraid that this time, not only the court pattern, but also who will inherit this world, has become a little unpredictable.

The wind and clouds above the court are unpredictable, and in the martial arts, there are also strong winds and waves, which are not very peaceful.

The prince of the hundred poisons, who has not appeared on the rivers and lakes for a long time, suddenly issued a son's order to all the major factions early this morning, stating that the martial arts treasure book is not in the hands of Princess Min, and whoever dares to commit it will be his enemy.

Not long after the news that Princess Min broke through the Tianji Pavilion and obtained the martial arts treasure book, the prince of the hundred poisons came out to clarify that as the closed disciple of the old man of Tianji, his words should be the most credible.

And it doesn't matter whether this matter is true or not, what matters is the attitude of the Hundred Poison Prince. The implication of his words is clearly to protect Princess Min.

Who is the Hundred Poison Child? Anyone who can kill you with just a pack of powder or a pill! Whoever is full and has nothing to do, will not run against him. Moreover, I heard that Boss Xin of the Qingsha Gang led people to break into the Minwang Mansion at night last night, and he has not returned yet, so he must be more than lucky!

With this double deterrent effect, those who have the intention to seize the martial arts treasure book can only stop there.

However, after calming down and thinking about it, new problems surfaced.

If the words of the Hundred Poison Princes are true, then who came out of the rumors that Princess Min has the martial arts treasure? And what is his purpose in doing this?

The world is strife, people's hearts are treacherous, I am afraid, it is another conspiracy with a surging tide!

I have to say that Nan Xiao's efficiency is still quite high, and overnight, he solved a great trouble for Mo Lan. It's just that he was so carried away by the blood in his heart that he forgot an extremely important point-

He must not easily expose his whereabouts.

The spacious and bright study room is elegantly decorated without losing luxury. The room was quiet, except for the occasional sound of flipping through the paper, and the very soft "rustle" sound of the pen being dropped.

A figure fell lightly in the room, knelt down on one knee, and respectfully bowed his head and called, "Master." ”

The man standing in front of the desk did not raise his head when he heard this, but still flipped through the folds in his hand, and from time to time put pen to pen and circle or comment a few sentences.

The man was dressed in a purple robe, inlaid with bright yellow textures, and a golden jade crown on his head.

"What?"

After a while, I heard a low question, although there were only two words, and the momentum in them could be seen.

"There's news of Nan Gongzi."

The hand holding the pen paused, and he jerked his head up, revealing a shocked face.

"Where?"

"Lieyun, Minwang Mansion."

As soon as the words fell, the man instantly put down the pen and music in his hand, and a purple shirt floated out, with a chilling domineering spirit.

"Go down immediately and prepare, this palace will leave immediately and go to Lieyun!"
