Everyone knew that the Iron Mask General was dead, but at this moment, no one even asked, "Who dares to pretend to be a general!" ”

Zhou Xuan couldn't help but take a few steps forward and looked at the iron-masked general standing in front of the city gate.

In fact, there is a clear difference from the familiar Iron Mask General, he has a long body, his hair is also black, and he looks like a young man, except for this armor, this horse and the mask on his face, there is no other place like the Iron Mask General.

It's really infuriating, Chu Yurong is too perfunctory, why don't you pretend to be as serious as before.

But what's even more infuriating is that even though he knows who the Iron Mask General is under his skin, and even though he can see so many differences, Zhou Xuan still has to admit that looking at the person in front of him, he still wants to shout the Iron Mask General.

What is familiar and similar is not the appearance, but the breath.

Yes, Chu Yurong, he is the real iron-masked general, and in the past few years, the iron-masked general has always been him.

"Master Hou!" The generals around him were a little at a loss, "What should I do?" ”

Zhou Xuan glanced at him: "It doesn't matter if he is a human being or a ghost, a ghost wants the emperor's permission if he wants the imperial city." Then he turned and left, "Hold the gates!" I'll go tell Your Majesty this—good news. ”

Your Majesty the Emperor, the old general you trust and rely on the most has come back from the dead, are you happy?

Zhou Xuan walked down the city wall, couldn't help laughing silently, laughing and laughing, and his face was calm, and he untied a dagger from his waist.

He looked down at the dagger, after all these years, this dagger should go where it was supposed to go.

Zhou Xuan put the dagger into his sleeve and strode towards the majestic palace.

"Your Majesty—I want to see Your Majesty—something is wrong—"

.....

.....

In the emperor's bedroom, many people are feeling bad at this moment.

Obviously, the fifth prince entered the palace with private soldiers, and it was a great crime to kill Chu Xiurong in front of the emperor, but the current scene, and what the emperor said, how did it become that the emperor was asking about Chu Xiurong?

"I see, you don't care about your own life." The Emperor nodded, "It's like you don't care about my life, so you let me be murdered by the crown prince." ”

The emperor's words became more and more shocking, and the breathing of the people in the hall stopped.

The five princes who were half-kneeling on the ground forgot their wailing, holding their hands, ecstatic and shocked and dazed - he said that Chu Xiurong harmed the prince, the queen mother, and himself, of course, he just said it casually, for him, Chu Xiurong's existence was already a harm to them, but he didn't expect that Chu Xiurong really hurt them!

Chu Jinrong looked at Chu Xiurong, but there was no ecstasy, the anger in his eyes was even stronger, it turned out that he had been played with by Chu Xiurong in the palm of his hand?

"You can't say that." Chu Xiurong shook his head, "Endangering his father's life is a choice made by Chu Jinrong himself, and it has nothing to do with me." ”

That's the problem!

"Ah Xiu!" The Emperor shouted, "The reason why he is doing this is that you are seducing him. ”

He was lying on the bed, unable to say that he couldn't move or open his eyes, and watched Chu Jinrong soberly step by step, from nervousness to relief to enjoyment, to reluctance, and finally to refuse to let him wake up-

"That's the imperial power." The emperor looked at Chu Xiurong, "No one can withstand this temptation. ”

Chu Xiurong said softly: "So whether he harms me or you, in your eyes, there is nothing wrong?" ”

Concubine Xu couldn't help but grab Chu Xiurong's hand and stand up: "Your Majesty—you can't do this." ”

Tears fell from the bottom of her eyes.

Concubine Xu often cried, but this time it was real tears.

The emperor closed his eyes on the throne: "I don't say that he is not wrong, I am saying that you are also wrong like this!" Ah Xiu—" He opened his eyes, his face sad, "How many things have you done?" Before-"

Chu Xiurong didn't wait for him to finish asking, so he nodded: "The Shanghe Village case, I also asked people to sue me, and the reason why Chu Murong came to assassinate me, the reason why I was able to be caught was because I prepared someone to catch them in advance, but it's a pity——"

He looked at Chu Jinrong.

"The prince's men have all run away."

This time Chu Jinrong was no longer silent, looked at Chu Xiurong, and shouted angrily: "Ah Xiu, you have been-"

"How have I been? Hurt you? Chu Xiurong interrupted him, his voice was still gentle, and the corners of his mouth were smiling, "His Royal Highness the Prince, I have been standing motionless, it is you who can't tolerate me and come to harm me, it is you who can't tolerate the existence of your father and the emperor and harm him." ”

Chu Jinrong said: "I didn't, that Doctor Hu, and that eunuch, they were obviously bribed and framed by you!" ”

What he admitted before, it is nothing to overturn now, anyway, it is all Chu Xiurong's fault.

The emperor shouted, "Shut up." He looked at Chu Xiurong again, with a little tiredness, "I have figured out the others, but there is only one person, I don't understand, what is the matter with the Zhang Yuan's judgment?" ”

The emperor pressed his heart, although he felt that he could no longer be hurt if he was already hurt, but every time he was hurt, it was still very painful.

As he spoke, the guards on either side of him escorted another person.

It was Zhang Yuan's verdict.

Zhang Yuanju's expression was calm.

The emperor shouted the name of Zhang Yuanju: "You are also deceiving me, without you, Ah Xiu would not have been able to do this." ”

The emperor was sick, the emperor was not sick, it was all in the hands of the imperial doctor.

In particular, Zhang Yuanju has been with the emperor for decades.

Yuan Judge Zhang nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty's illness was caused by the criminal minister." ”

The emperor looked at him with a sad look in his eyes: "Why? ”

Zhang Yuan sentenced him to kowtow: "There is no why, it is a crime that deserves death." ”

He still refused to say that the emperor wanted to ask again, but Chu Xiurong spoke first: "Father, do you remember Prince Zhang?" ”

The emperor was stunned, of course he remembered that the eldest son of Zhang Yuanju was the same age as the prince, and he also grew up in front of him since he was a child, and he was accompanied by the prince, but unfortunately he died of typhoid fever after falling into the water one year.

"The eldest prince fell into the water that time, because of the prince." Chu Xiurong glanced at Chu Jinrong.

More than 20 years ago, the emperor couldn't remember it for a while.

Chu Jinrong had already shouted angrily: "Lone also fell into the water, it was Zhang Lu who proposed to play in the water, it was he who jumped down, Lone didn't pull him, Lone almost drowned, Lone was sick!" ”

His memory is clear, and he even called himself lonely as he was used to at the time.

Chu Xiurong looked at him: "Because you avoided people and played in the water, after you fell into the water, Zhang Lu pushed you to climb on the shore in order to save you, soaked in the water so that you could step on the branches of the tree, you were sick because you were frightened, and he contracted typhoid fever." ”

Chu Jinrong was about to say something, but was interrupted by the emperor, and he also remembered this matter and remembered the child.

The emperor looked at Zhang Yuan's judgment: "I am also very sad about Ah Lu's matter, it turns out that you have been blaming me for this?" Blame me, blame the prince, let Ah Lu fall into the water? ”

Yuan Yuan Zhang still shook his head: "The criminal minister did not blame the prince and His Majesty, this is all Ah Lu's own naughtiness-"

So why the hell! Anger crossed the emperor's face.

"Yuan Zhang didn't blame the crown prince and his father, but his father and the prince blamed Ah Lu very much at that time." Chu Xiurong whispered on the side, "I still remember that the prince was just frightened, and the imperial doctors have all diagnosed it, as long as he sleeps well, but his father and the crown prince refused to let Imperial Doctor Zhang leave, and when it was reported that Ah Lu was sick and very sick, he left Imperial Physician Zhang in the palace to guard the prince for five days, and after five days, Imperial Physician Zhang returned home and saw Ah Lu for the last time——"

Hearing him say this, the originally calm Zhang Yuanju's body couldn't help but tremble, although many years have passed, he can still remember that moment, his Ah Lu-

The emperor's eyes were a little dazed, is he to blame? It's been so long that he really can't remember how he felt at that time.

Perhaps—at that time, when he was hurt a little, he felt that the sky was going to fall.
