Zhang Shuirong, the king of Beijing, looked at Han Fei's back as he stepped out of the Beijing Palace, fell into deep thought, and his fear slowly stabilized.

The staff of the king of Beijing had the duties of the west seat of the palace, and was teaching the children of the king of Beijing to read and learn calligraphy in the west courtyard, when he suddenly heard that the king was coming, and hurried to the front courtyard to check what was going on. In the front hall, only King Beijing sat alone on the chair, and he didn't see Han Fei, the king of Ming, and the staff asked in surprise: "Lord Wang, can you hear that the king is here?" ”

"Hmm!" Zhang Shuirong, the king of Beijing, breathed a long sigh of relief, his expression was very lonely, as if he was more than ten years old in an instant, and said self-deprecatingly: "He can see at a glance that this king is pretending to be crazy!" ”

"What?"

This plan to pretend to be crazy to save his life was thought up by King Beijing and his staff, and he thought that he had performed it very well, but he didn't expect to be seen through by Han Fei. The consequences of this recognition...... The staff thought of the rumors outside, and said with a frightened face: "Lord Wang, could it be that there is a flaw in it?" ”

King Beijing shook his head and laughed miserably: "We have all forgotten that King Ming is a divine doctor!" ”

Ga...... The staff seemed to have been knocked on a stick, and suddenly felt dizzy, yes, King Ming is a miracle doctor, how can he escape the eyes of the miracle doctor by pretending to be crazy and stupid? I can't think of all the performances, but in the end it's a clumsy farce.

"Lord, what did King Ming say...... Will it offend the prince? ”

"Probably not, as long as this king does not get involved in the government, he said that he will continue to treat this king as a friend!" King Beijing recounted what Han Fei said when he left, and said with a wry smile: "It's that this king is worried, King Ming has the courage of an emperor, how can he regard this king, an idle prince who has no position and no power, as a threat?" ”

The staff was silent for a moment and said, "Lord Wang, those rumors outside ......"

"Most of them are made up by politicians who want to speculate, and the wall is down and everyone pushes it, if the general trend is clear today, who from all sides does not want to occupy a place in the new dynasty?"

"Lord Wang, what should we do then?"

"This king has figured it out, the general trend of the world has become irreversible, this king is determined to be a man in peace, and leave a pulse of incense for my Zhang family!"

The staff could hear the grief and helplessness in King Beijing's words, sighed deeply, and said: "Lord Wang, even if those rumors outside have nothing to do with King Ming, they can't be ignored, you must know that everyone is gold!" ”

"Well, this king understands, this king immediately went to ask for guilt, no, this king personally took the excerpt to ask King Ming for guilt, and asked for the people to be cut off!"

"Cutting the lord for the people? Lord Wang, this is too serious, you didn't do anything to endanger the court and King Ming at all! ”

"It is impossible for the king of Ming to cut this king to the people, this is just to further test his intentions, if he punishes this king lightly, it means that he has no murderous intentions; If he appeases or praises the king, then the king can only go back to his house to prepare for the future. ”

"Lord, what does this mean?"

"Sir, have you forgotten why King Anle died? If you elevate this king, it means that you are wary of this king, and this king has only one way to die! ”

Han Fei listened to the report of the guards, King Beijing asked to see him outside the palace, he was very stunned, since the first emperor's great trip, King Beijing had never entered the palace, plus King Beijing made a farce of pretending to be crazy and stupid, Han Fei was a little curious about his intention.

King Beijing did not wear the prince's court clothes, but a civilian costume, and after entering the imperial study, he immediately knelt on the ground and said: "Weichen Zhang Shuirong is deeply guilty, and he has come to ask for the crime, please punish His Royal Highness King Ming!" ”

"Please?"

King Beijing is also the prince of the clan, and Han Fei was already surprised when he ran into the imperial study to bow down to him, and he was even more stunned when he said something to ask for sin. In an instant, he understood, probably because of the rumors that had recently emerged in the capital.

Han Fei hurriedly stepped forward to help King Beijing and said, "Why did King Beijing say this, outsiders don't know your character, this king knows it well, and this king will never believe that you have the heart to rebel against the court!" ”

"His Royal Highness King Ming, there may not be no reason for nothing, Weichen does not have the intention of rebellion, but there are rumors outside, it must be where Weichen has misbehaved!" King Beijing bowed down and presented it to Han Fei, and said: "Weichen asks the court to cut the lord for the people, and from now on be a peaceful and self-guarding common man under the rule of King Ming!" ”

"Cutting the lord for the people?" Han Fei stared at King Beijing and took a deep look, sat back on the book case with the fold, looked through the fold, pondered for a long time, and said: "Since the prince has awakened to the misconduct and sincerely changed it, I don't want to pursue it, but the court law is not merciful, and this king decided to ask the queen mother to deprive the queen mother of the title of King Beijing and change the title of Duke Ancheng!" ”

Zhang Shuirong's expression was relieved, and he understood that Han Fei really didn't have the intention of killing him, so he thanked him: "Weichen thanks His Royal Highness King Ming for his grace!" ”

Han Fei stepped forward again to help Zhang Shuirong, looked at him, and sighed: "Brother Zhang is talented, he can be called a genius in the literary world, Han Mou has always respected Brother Zhang, and he misses the days of drinking and talking with Brother Zhang very much, but it's a pity...... As soon as he entered this right and wrong field, Han couldn't help himself! ”

At this moment, Zhang Shuirong had a feeling of wanting to cry, he could hear that Han Fei's words were sincere, he couldn't help but hold Han Fei's hand, and said solemnly: "Brother Han is also Zhang's most respected confidant, the hegemony of the dynasty has never been what Zhang wants, Zhang only loves poetry and poetry in his life, no matter how the situation changes, Zhang's vein will never be an enemy of Brother Han!" ”

Soon after Zhang Shuirong returned home, the imperial court's holy decree also came down, officially depriving the king of Beijing and changing his title to Duke Ancheng. As soon as the news came out, public opinion in the capital was in an uproar, and some people understood that Zhang Shuirong's prince was gone, but he successfully won the trust of King Ming, and his life was worry-free.

The turmoil in the capital was thrilling, some people were promoted, some were deposed, and some people became prisoners, and all the forces on all sides could be said to be immortal and want to die, but the principals of the Jia family were like chicken blood, and they were excited.

Today, the Jia family held a closed-door family meeting, which was attended by adult men from the Jia family's family and two prefectures, namely Jia Yu, Jia Zheng, Jia Zhen, Jia Lian, Jia Baoyu, Jia Rong, etc.

"Today's news that King Beijing was demoted to Duke An Cheng, everyone must know it, which shows that the royal Zhang family has completely declined!" The patriarch of the Jia family said excitedly: "Everyone should also hear a nursery rhyme, 'The sun and the moon shine, the world is bright', this world is about to be the world of King Ming, and our Jia family is also going to become a royal family!" ”

These words, although everyone also thought of it, but they didn't dare to say it, after Jia Zhen made it clear, everyone in the Jia family couldn't help cheering. Once the Jia family is promoted to the royal family, what an honor it is, and everyone here is also the identity of the prince.

At this time, Jia Lian said with a sense of gain and loss: "Although the Zhang family is no longer able to compete with King Ming, the emperor is not dead after all, and King Ming is not good to blatantly seize the throne!" ”

"Idiot!" Jia Lian's Jia Yu reprimanded: "The emperor can't wake up, abdication is inevitable, King Ming is dragging it out just to get rid of the traitors, don't you see, how many people who oppose King Ming or have illusions about the Zhang family in the past two years have been killed and exiled?" King Ming is far-sighted, strategizing, and does not clear out the traitors, doesn't it leave hidden dangers for the new dynasty? ”

"What the lord said is extremely true!" Jia Zhen nodded and said: "Now the people's hearts are towards King Ming, sooner or later this world will belong to our Jia family, what we want to discuss today is the identity of King Ming in the Jia family, and how the Jia family cooperates with King Ming!" ”
