The emperor denounced the true king and was furious.

"Now, some people have come to me to accuse me of leaving the camp without permission, dereliction of duty, and deception. True King, you are not aware of sin? "The emperor was furious, and there was a feeling that the dragon might be annihilated.

However, the true king was unmoved, knelt on the ground, looked up at the emperor and said, "Long live, the princess is your righteous daughter and the wife of your minister." I still remember that when the minister was severely poisoned, the imperial doctor was helpless, and let the minister live and perish. Fortunately, Qin Tianshi, the Qin Heavenly Supervisor, took action, spied on the heavenly machine, and calculated that the woman who was in line with the eight characters of the minister, and used the joy of marriage to rush the danger of illness and mourning"

"How dare the princess forget such kindness to the minister? In addition, the princess was extremely filial to the Queen Mother, and she was loved by the people of the Qianzhao Dynasty. She has made a lot of selfless contributions to the emperor and the people. In front of the princess, the minister is also ashamed of himself. I just think that how fortunate is the minister to be able to marry a princess like the princess? ”

"Maybe in the eyes of the emperor, the princess is a woman, but in the minister's heart, she is the minister's wife and the mother of the minister's son. If she is troubled, how can she be at ease? The minister knew that there was an attack by the Jurchen army outside Youzhou City, but the two armies had been fighting for many years, and they all knew the roots. Unless there are special circumstances, it will be in a state of stalemate"

"In addition, the minister's understanding of Marshal Gao and Gao's army. Marshal Gao ruled well, with both grace and power, and clear rewards and punishments; The Gao family army was disciplined, united, and forbidden. Even if the ministers are in the camp, they are just indiscriminate. ”

The real king Zhu Xi is reasonable, and explains why he values Song Yi so much and why he can leave the barracks.

But in the ears of the emperor, these are just quibbles. Ministers who are released are not allowed to return to Beijing without the emperor's holy decree. Especially the one who holds the military power like the true king. The emperor was even more jealous.

Now, the real king has returned to Beijing privately for the sake of the princess. This made the emperor have to wonder if the real king didn't care about the imperial power at all, or if the real princess had such a huge influence on him.

Neither of these points is what the emperor wants to see. Don't care about the imperial power, despise the imperial power, how can such a courtier continue to be retained? Imperial power should be supreme and no one should be allowed to flout.

If the true king can ignore the holy decree and return to Beijing for the sake of a woman, doesn't it mean that in the true king's heart, a woman's words are more effective than the holy decree?

How dangerous is this for those who hold the dark shadow and the army of 200,000 in their hands? If the enemy country grasps this situation and grasps the weakness of the true king, won't the world be in chaos?

Thinking of this, the emperor couldn't help but look at the portrait of the beauty on the wall again. fell into painful memories, thinking that back then, he was also young and frivolous, and he also wanted to give up the country for the sake of beauty.

But the reality gave him a lesson, you can't have both, he was in the emperor's family, and he decided the fate of his life from the beginning. He seems to have the whole world, but he is destined to betray his relatives and leave him, and he will not have true love in his life, so he must be wary of everyone.

This is when God gave him the power of life and death, and gave him, no, a curse on every son of heaven.

"Wan Ting, are you okay? Do you still blame me? The emperor sighed in his heart, and the eyes that looked at the beauty painting were crazy and possessive.

"It seems that the real princess is extremely important to you?" The Emperor asked softly.

The true king was shocked in his heart, a seemingly simple question, but a hidden crisis.

"Princess Anle is a royal princess, she is a daughter, she is married to the real palace, how dare the minister not take it to heart?" Zhu Xi skillfully answered the emperor's question, attributing his importance to Song Yi to Song Yi's royal status. Ranwen

How could the emperor not see that the true king was avoiding the important and light, but this time, the true king had already touched his bottom line, and the emperor did not intend to let him go so easily, so he sneered and continued to ask, "I heard that seven years ago, someone also asked you a question, if you were to choose between me and Princess Anle, how would you choose?" True King, do you remember your answer back then? ”

The emperor's words made the real king frown, and he knew that things were not ordinary.

Back then, only one person had ever asked themselves this question. That is the first emperor who has now committed treason, Zhao Pangjing, the king of Liang back then. He had asked himself this question in the palace today.

It's just that King Zhen always thought that only he and King Liang knew about the things back then. Unexpectedly, the emperor was also an insider. But when did the emperor find out? If he knew it from the beginning, but he kept it back, what kind of city would it be? If the emperor knows about such a secret thing, does it mean that King Liang has always had the emperor's secret agents by his side. And this spy is still a very close person to King Liang?

If the deduction continues, King Liang betrayed the country and ran away from Liuli, did the emperor know about it at the first time?

Thinking of this, the True King had to re-examine his judgment of the emperor. I thought that the emperor was a diligent and incompetent emperor, but now it seems that everyone has been deceived by him.

How can a person who is the ultimate winner of the palace fight, a person who has learned the art of the king since he was a child, be so gullible? So relieved to keep King Liang, who is a threat to his throne, by his side all the time?

However, these are no longer the main problems of the true king. What he is most concerned about now is why the emperor would reopen the old accounts and put the questions that King Liang asked him back then on the table.

Could it be that this is the emperor's slap on himself, telling himself that he knows everything about everything? Or did the emperor only know that King Liang had asked him this question back then, but he didn't know his answer?

All this happened between lightning and flint, Zhu Xi silently practiced and calculated in his heart for a long time, but everything was only a short time on the surface.

The true king opened his mouth and said, "The minister is guilty"

"Why did the true king confess his sins so happily? Just now, when I wanted to punish you for disobeying the decree and leaving your post without permission, the true king denied it in every possible way. Now, though, if I ask you a question, you are happy to confess your sins? Could it be that the true king said something rebellious back then? ”

"True king, if the country and the beauty, loyalty and filial piety and benevolence and righteousness cannot be both, what choice will you make? The choices you made in front of him back then, will it change now? ”

The emperor's words had already made Zhu Xi very sure that he knew all the circumstances of the day.

The emperor was clear about his meeting with King Liang, the content of his conversation, and his answers. If you mention this matter now, you are obviously threatening yourself.

He chose Song Yi back then, because he was very sure that Song Yi would not threaten the emperor, and there would be no situation where he would choose one of the two. But now, everything has quietly changed.

Their feelings for Song Yi are increasing day by day, and they have the crystallization of love again. It is impossible for him to give up Song Yi in his life.

Zhu Xi said firmly in his heart, and when he looked up, he saw the murderous intent in the emperor's eyes flashing.
