The nights in the capital are especially cold in late autumn.

Li Mingyang shuddered suddenly, his eyes darkened for a moment, but soon they lit up again, the corners of his lips hooked, and he smiled: "This joke is not funny." ”

"Jokes?" Chen Yin was full of energy, and he didn't seem to feel the pain in Li Mingyang's heart, so he deceived his ears and blew lightly in Li Mingyang's ear, and said, "I really didn't expect that the prince also likes to cover his ears and steal the bell." ”

As he spoke, he suddenly stuffed the scroll he had just put away into Li Mingyang's hand, and said, "If you find it difficult to accept the fact that the Dog Emperor will not pass on the throne to you, it doesn't hurt to take this one as true, anyway, in a few days, when the queen wants to announce to the world that the new emperor will ascend the throne, what she holds in her hand can only be this one in your hand." ”

Li Mingyang was stunned for a moment, as if he finally forced himself to believe that he was really the abandoned son of Great Wei, and said coldly: "The edict can't be faked, there are too many details involved in it, once it is debunked by the minister on the spot, and the military power is not in the hands of this king, do you dare to guarantee that those secret guards of yourself can really fight for tens of thousands of elite horses of my Great Wei!"

"Lord Wang, you just need to be your Jiangxia County King, other obstacles before ascending the throne, my Chen family will clear it for you, there are many things you don't know, you don't have to know, I'm for your good." ”

After that, Chen Yin patted Li Mingyang's shoulder and disappeared into the vast night.

In the second half of the night, the strong winds in the capital seemed to have finally stopped.

But the emperor's bedroom was shrouded in a strange atmosphere.

In recent nights, the queen has been unable to sleep peacefully, and almost every half an hour she will send her cronies to the emperor's bedroom to investigate one or two to ensure that the emperor is safe and sound, so that she can sleep on the first half of the incense.

It is said that it is "safe and sound", but it is not worse - as long as the emperor's snort is still there, it can be regarded as a dragon in good health.

Great Wei has not been in the early court for many days.

But at this moment, the emperor's bedroom is a little more angry than in the past - the queen came in a hurry, and there was no half of a grandmother or palace maid behind her, like a phantom shuttling through the forbidden place in the palace.

In front of the dragon couch, there is a gray-haired old man's rickety figure.

He heard the movement behind him and glanced back, until the queen walked up to him, and then said: "Queen mother, the emperor ......"

It is Gonggong Xu, who has been with the emperor for many years.

I saw Gonggong Xu kneeling on his knees beside the dragon couch, his already old face looked like he had been robbed of life, and under the light of the fire candles in the palace, a pair of cloudy eyes seemed to be bubbling with ghosts, which made people dare not take a second look.

The queen's eyes narrowed slightly, her eyebrows were furrowed, and under the light of the fire, the tired face on her face looked more vivid.

"Empress, the emperor is violent—"

"Shut up!"

Gonggong Xu didn't have time to finish speaking, and was so frightened by the queen's shout that he shuddered.

The queen stood beside the dragon couch with a serious face, her back straight, looking at the figure in front of her that was slightly blurred by the bed, she looked at it for a moment, leaned down slightly, stretched out her trembling hand, and her fingertips finally approached the snort of the person on the bed.

"Ahh

In just a moment, she withdrew her hand, and her whole body trembled even more.

"Queen Mother," Grandpa Xu spoke again, "when will it be announced to the world?"

The queen didn't say a word, and was silent for a long time before she said in a deep voice: "Isn't Grandpa Xu confused?

After that, she rolled her eyes lightly and stared at Gonggong Xu motionlessly.

"This ......" Gonggong Xu was shocked and wanted to open his mouth to refute, but looking at the queen's unquestionable appearance, he suddenly understood what she meant, and hurriedly changed his words, "The queen's lesson is that there is really nothing big to happen, and there is nothing that needs to be announced to the world, so the old slave is confused and confused......"

After that, he kowtowed respectfully.

The queen raised her eyes steadily, and seemed to glance at the deepest part of the emperor's bedroom, for a long time, and said lightly: "The emperor is sick, and it has not improved, and he has not been able to go out of the early dynasty recently." ”

"Yes, the old slave understands. ”

The queen lowered her voice a little, and said: "When it is dawn, the king of Shouchun County will enter the palace secretly, and there are important matters to discuss in the palace." ”

"Yes. ”

Tranquility finally returned to the palace.

It was as quiet as if there was no life.

The queen sat alone beside the dragon couch, and muttered expressionlessly: "In the past, the fake emperor could pretend to be the real emperor, but now the emperor's body is still there, is it wrong for this palace to swallow the news of the emperor's death in this palace where this soul is located?"

After that, a smile slowly appeared on the corner of her lips, and her eyes turned to the emperor who had long been out of breath on the dragon couch, and said lightly: "If this palace does this, the emperor will definitely agree, right?"

The rumors outside the palace seemed to have stopped.

The undercurrent in the palace also subsided, and everything that happened in the middle of the night seemed to be half erased, and no one mentioned it.

Several palace maids and guards were unknowingly killed, sealed their throats with a sword, and were quietly dragged out of the emperor's palace by several strong and invisible people.

It seems quieter......

The sky was just dawning.

In the palace of Jiangxia County.

Li Mingyang couldn't sleep well all night, so he simply got up early.

The secret news brought by Chen Yin the night before made him feel uneasy, thinking about it, it seemed that there was something pickled in his heart, he was disgusting when he swallowed it, and he couldn't vomit it out, so he could only be angry alone.

"Father...... Father, the emperor ......," he muttered to himself in a low voice, "In your eyes, what is a child who is not as good as the fifth child? Love the people and love the soldiers? Heh, it is because he is scheming and has not been able to show his feet, people's hearts are really biased, even saints are not exempt from vulgarity, in the final analysis, they are just mediocre people who can't see the situation and the truth clearly!"

As he spoke, his eyes suddenly became sharp, he flicked his long sleeves, turned around and pulled out the sword hanging in front of the bed, got up and walked out.

There was a clearing in the forest in the palace of Jiangxia County, and Li Mingyang turned his anger into one move at a time, and played a few sword moves to dispel some of the gloom in his heart.

He was about to go to breakfast when Yun Xin stumbled in from outside the main entrance.

"Wang ...... Rajah...... Oh no......"

Li Mingyang looked at it fixedly, and found that Yun Xin's temples were scattered, and her face was also stained with ashes, and he said in disgust: "What kind of body do you look like, but do you still remember that you are the princess of this Jiangxia County Palace?"

"Concubine...... The concubine remembers...... But it happened so suddenly......" she said breathlessly, looking anxious.

Li Mingyang's eyebrows jumped, and he guessed what Yun Xin was going to say, but he didn't have time to put away the sword in his hand, and grabbed Yun Xin's elbow tightly and said in a deep voice: "What's the matter?

Yun Xin swallowed her saliva and said: "The concubine body ran out secretly, the palace was very quiet last night, but it was so quiet that the concubine body felt scared, it must be haunted!

"What?" Li Mingyang looked at his wife with a suspicious expression.

"Lord Wang, you listened to the concubine body," Yun Xin didn't care about sorting out the stains on her cheeks, swallowed her saliva, approached Li Mingyang mysteriously, and then said lightly, "Doesn't the prince know that the secret that was once sealed in the dust?"

"Secret?" Li Mingyang became more and more puzzled.

"The concubine knows," Yun Xin said with a pretentious matter, "There are ghosts in that palace!"

"Presumptuous!" Li Mingyang pushed Yun Xin away and said angrily, "Are you crazy!"

"No," Yun Xin said again, "Last night was unusual, not only was the concubine guessed, but the concubine saw it, the queen was not in the palace in the middle of the night!"

"Not in the dormitory, where did the queen go?"

When the concubine was about to sneak over, the lord of Yuehua woke up, and the concubine had to pretend to comfort her for a while, and after she finally fell asleep, the queen had long disappeared, and the concubine guessed that she had gone to the emperor's bedroom, but she was worried that it would be exposed, so she could only stay in the queen's bedroom, until it was about to dawn, and the concubine found that the queen had not returned all night, so she ran out to report the news...... Certain...... Something terrible must have happened!"

"Smack!"

When Yun Xin panted and told Li Mingyang what she knew, she got a loud slap!

"Foolish!"

The awe-inspiring aura around him looked extremely terrifying, and he stared at Yun Xin and said: "It's not enough to succeed and more to lose!

With that, he got up and was about to leave.

Seeing that Li Mingyang didn't believe his words at all, Yun Xin grabbed his cuffs in horror and said, "Lord, you must believe in the concubine, something must have happened to the emperor......

"Smack!"

Yun Xin didn't have time to finish, and she was slapped again.

"What nonsense!" Li Mingyang said angrily.

"Lord Wang! Lord Wang! The concubine body is not lying!"

Yun Xin didn't seem to give up, and she still grabbed Li Mingyang's trouser leg when she sat on the ground.

Li Mingyang immediately pulled out the cold sword from his waist, leaned it in front of Yun Xin and said, "If you dare to talk nonsense again, believe it or not, this king will kill you now!"

I saw Yun Xin sitting on the ground, shivered suddenly, swallowed his saliva with difficulty, his eyes turned down slightly, staring at the blade of the sword that was a millimeter away from his jaw, and said in a trembling voice: "Wang...... Does the prince not believe in Yunxin? Yunxin ...... Yun Xin didn't lie......"

Seeing her crazy appearance, Li Mingyang angrily threw the sword on the ground, regardless of getting up and leaving.

But before he could enter the house, Chen Yin actually fell from the sky again, stood in front of him, and suddenly grabbed his collar.

"What are you doing?" Li Mingyang was even more angry.

"Let me tell you, maybe your princess is a madman, but she guessed right. ”

"What do you mean?"

"The eyeliner has just come to report, Li Mingde has already rushed to the palace at this moment, Lord, why do you say this is so coincidental? Maybe in half an hour, the entire Great Wei will know that the emperor is going to pass the throne to the king of Shouchun County, can you still sit still?"

Looking at Chen Yin, the look in Li Mingyang's eyes changed, and the hand on the rosewood coffee table was raised.

The corners of Chen Yin's mouth, who couldn't help but look at it, raised slightly: "I'm afraid it's too late for you to secretly change the edict, the queen and Li Mingde are planning to steal the day." ”
