Wei Zhongxian didn't stab again in the end, because King Xin was too dead to die anymore.

Ding Baiying took out the fire oil that had been prepared earlier and poured it on King Xin's corpse, He Xie walked up to Wei Zhongxian with a gloomy face and sat down, knocking on the table, making Wei Zhongxian's eyes fall on him.

"Now, I can have a good talk with the factory father." He smiled at Wei Zhongxian and said.

Wei Zhongxian looked at He Xie with jealousy, fear, and anger in his eyes, but he was silent, as if he was planning to respond to all changes with the same.

"Actually, I can finish it completely, and then I'll see you." He Xie smiled and said, "But if I really do this, it means that I want to kill you." ”

Wei Zhongxian's eyes flashed slightly.

He Xie picked up the teapot on the table, poured the tea, and said leisurely: "The factory is not angry, I can understand it, but the factory may as well think about it the other way, I want to take the factory to a handle, doesn't it mean that I need the factory father?" ”

Wei Zhongxian finally spoke slowly: "Perhaps, you just want to sit in that seat safely." ”

He Xie put down the teapot.

"Daming can't live without the factory father, this is not what he said." He Xie pointed to the corpse of King Xin, and then pointed to himself, "I said it!" ”

He pushed a cup of tea in front of Wei Zhongxian: "The factory prince knows my origin, do you think I have experience in dealing with courtiers?" Recovering Liaodong and expelling Jiannu, can I do it? Suppress the people's rebellion and pacify the rogues, can I do it? ”

"I can't!"

"Who can I rely on? Rely on those courtiers who only grind their tongues and intrigue with each other? They can't be trusted, the emperor knows, and you know the factory! ”

"I know very well that if I want to sit in that position, I can only rely on you. Factory father, Daming needs you, I need you! And you, only if I sit in that seat, you can live, and live forever! ”

Wei Zhongxian stared at He Xie's face, and his gloomy face finally eased.

"Such a big deal, do you want me to stay alive?" He asked faintly.

When Wei Zhongxian asked this sentence, He Xie knew that this old eunuch had already agreed in his heart. In fact, up to now, this is also Wei Zhongxian's best choice.

He Xie believed that Wei Zhongxian must have a way to deal with him, but what good did this do him?

Even if he kills He Xie, the fake faith king, he can get out of the way, but can he guarantee that if he changes to a new emperor, his position will still be as stable as Mount Tai?

He can't guarantee it!

On the contrary, if he compromises, he can guarantee his own life.

Just as He Xie believed that Wei Zhongxian would have 10,000 ways to put himself to death when he got out of this door, Wei Zhongxian also believed that if He Xie really wanted to kill him, he would not talk so much nonsense with him at all, and with the resourcefulness shown by this person, there was definitely a way to get out of the way.

As soon as he Wei Zhongxian died, there were many people in the court to congratulate him, and the emperor had no children, so he believed that the king was such a younger brother, and when the Donglin Party revived, he supported the king of Xin, who was already close to them, who in the court could stop it?

Therefore, he believed that He Xie really needed him to stabilize the court, rather than just relying on him to ascend to the throne.

The only thing he was worried about now was that He Xie would eventually kill him, the only person who knew about this shocking secret.

"Gonggong," He Xie stood up with a smile and looked at Wei Zhongxian opposite condescendingly, "This king has the world in his heart, can't he even tolerate a single minion?" ”

He has always called himself "I" before, but this sentence, he began to call himself "this king" again, which means that from this moment on, he is no longer Lu Wenzhao, he is - King of Faith!

Wei Zhongxian immediately understood the meaning of He Xie's words, if He Xie really ascended the throne, no matter whether he Wei Zhongxian wanted to admit it or not, he would be He Xie's minion, and his life and death were completely between He Xie's thoughts.

In this case, why should He Xie deliberately kill him?

Wei Zhongxian was silent for a long time, and suddenly picked up the cup of tea that He Xie poured for him before and threw it away, then got up, prostrate on the ground, and bowed deeply.

"Old minister Wei Zhongxian, see His Royal Highness King Xin!"

He Xie smiled, he looked at Ding Baiying on the side, she was also laughing.

Laughing with tears.

Half an hour later, a fire suddenly broke out on the second floor of Fumanzhai, and the flames soared to the sky!

The Dongchang and Jinyi guards who were facing each other below were shocked and were about to rush up, but they saw "King Xin" step out of the door, followed by Ding Baiying and Wei Zhongxian.

"Master?" In the distance, Ding Xiu and the others were surprised, "Why is Master here?" ”

"Where's the Governor?" Shen Lian and the others also looked at each other, completely unclear about the situation.

He Xie didn't look into the distance, but looked back at Wei Zhongxian.

Wei Zhongxian immediately bowed his hand and said: "Your Highness, go to the north gate with the little ones first, and the old minister immediately orders Wu Xiang Zuowei to go and join His Highness." ”

The guards of the original Xin Wangfu have long been slaughtered by the East Factory, which is also in line with the meaning of evil, not only the guards, but also the slaves and maids of the original Xin Palace, the housekeepers, etc., can not be left.

Wei Zhongxian called a stall leader and ordered him to lead dozens of people to escort He Xie and watch He Xie go away.

"Grandpa, do you want to put out the fire?" A fanzi asked cautiously.

Wei Zhongxian looked at Fumanzhai, which was burning more and more, and said, "No need! Cordon off this place and don't let anyone in! ”

"Yes!"

He looked at the raging fire in a daze, exhaled deeply for a long time, his eyes showed a little ruthlessness, and he commanded without looking back: "Among the group of brocade guards, there is one named Shen Lian, and another is named Pei Lun and Lu Jianxing, call them over." ”

After a while, Shen Lian, Lu Jianxing, and Pei Lun stepped forward with apprehension and knelt on the ground.

Wei Zhongxian turned his head, looked at the three of them with a strange gaze for a moment, and said slowly: "Zhao Jingzhong, Tian Ergeng, Xu Xianchun and other traitors are plotting against me, and if they want to kill me, they will also kill King Xin!" ”

The three of them suddenly felt relieved and quietly glanced at each other.

However, Wei Zhongxian's next sentence immediately made the faces of the three of them change greatly!

"Your governor Lu Wenzhao, in order to protect me and King Xin, killed the thief alone, and he has died in battle."

The three of them looked up in horror, their faces full of disbelief.

Wei Zhongxian continued to say quietly: "He said, in the brocade guard, the three of you can be of great use. Then let me see what you're capable of. ”

Wei Zhongxian said a few names, and said lightly: "These people, they will be arrested tonight, Dongchang will ask you for someone tomorrow morning, go and do it." ”

"Yes, Gonggong!"

The three of them retreated, and Wei Zhongxian turned back, his gaze falling back on the raging fire.

No one knew that a prince of the Ming Dynasty was about to be burned to ashes in this fire.

Shen Lian and the three of them returned to the Jinyi Guard with a heavy heart, but found that Ding Xiu had quietly left with the people in the Ding Sect.

Lu Jianxing was dissatisfied: "This person is too unruly, right?" ”

Shen Lian waved his hand: "Forget it, they ...... It's not a brocade guard. ”

Pei Lun said in a deep voice: "There is definitely something strange about this matter, I don't believe that Du Du died like this!" ”

Lu Jianxing glanced at him and sighed, "Rotten this thing in your stomach!" What the factory said himself, even if it is not true, is true. ”

Shen Lian's eyes were deep, and he looked back at the firelight in a daze, he didn't believe Wei Zhongxian's words, Ding Baiying's woman's friendship with Lu Wenzhao could be seen personally, but just now, this woman's face was not half sad at all, and she left with King Xin.

Thinking back to the past, he vaguely felt that the whole thing was a conspiracy from beginning to end.

He didn't know what it was, he didn't want to know, he suddenly felt a little tired of it all.

He Xie and Ding Baiying, escorted by Dongchang Fanzi, joined up with the Wu Xiang Left Guard Forbidden Army, and they escorted He Xie back to the palace.

When they arrived at the mansion, the forbidden army took the lead in taking down all the slaves and maids and housekeepers in the mansion, and even Princess Xin was also under house arrest.

Ding Xiu came with someone from Dingmen, but He Xie didn't see him, but asked Ding Baiying to come forward and ask him to take someone back to Jinyiwei.

After the forbidden army imprisoned all the crying slaves and maids, He Xie came to the middle hall accompanied by Ding Baiying.

This was the place where he first met the king of faith.

"Master—Your Highness," Ding Baiying said slowly, "what are you going to do with these people?" ”

He Xie looked through the pane and watched a group of forbidden soldiers not far away pressing a few eunuchs walking by, silent for a long time.

"Once it will be successful, ten thousand bones will wither......"

He now deeply understands what kind of helplessness and ruthlessness is contained in this sentence.

In fact, he had thought of it a long time ago, but he had been avoiding this question in his heart.

If you want to truly become the king of faith, how can you just change your face and sit back and relax?

"You go to the trial yourself, bring two outsiders." He Xie slowly spoke, "Anyone who has had close contact with King Xin before, especially those who have served closely, don't stay." When you're done, clean it up. ”

The reason why I want to bring two outsiders is because these two outsiders can't be Liu.

"The princess ......"

He Xie looked at the dark night sky and was silent.

Ding Baiying was also silent for a moment and said, "Then I'll go out first." ”

When she closed the door, she saw the back of her senior brother, and she looked particularly depressed and lonely.

That night, Princess Xin, Zhou, and two concubines, Tian and Yuan, were assassinated by assassins. Several other handmaidens and eunuchs who were loyal to the Lord also died on the spot.

The Assassin had long hair and was good at wielding a long knife.

It was also this night that Wei Zhongxian watched the fire in Fumanzhai completely extinguished, and only after confirming that there was only a pile of burned wreckage left inside that no one could recognize, he left tiredly.

There were shouts of killing everywhere in the capital, and several university scholars' mansions were attacked by Jinyi guards at night, and the owner was captured overnight.

It was a bloody night, a dark night.

The next day, the court shook and the whole world was shocked!

Wei Zhongxian told the emperor about the incident in the Qianqing Palace early in the morning, and someone in the Yundong factory colluded with the courtiers and King Xin's guards to murder King Xin and him. The emperor was furious and ordered the factory guards and the three divisions to strictly investigate!

Wei Zhongxian sent his nephew Wei Liangqing to temporarily take the position of commander of Jinyi Guard, assemble the factory guards, and thoroughly investigate the matter.

King Xin said that he was ill, the palace was closed, and Wu Xiang Zuowei sent more manpower to martial law around the palace. Except for Wei Zhongxian, who personally met King Xin on the third day, no one came in or out.

It was not until seven days later that the curtain came to a temporary end as the emperor became critically ill.

On July 23, the seventh year of the Apocalypse, the emperor summoned King Xin, the Cabinet Department, and the ministers of Kedao in the Qianqing Palace, at this time the emperor's body was as fat as a cow, and he couldn't even open his eyes, he took the hand of King Xin and said: "My brother should be Yao Shun, Da Ming, it's yours......"
