Early the next morning, Ying'e's confession was sent to the Taiji Palace, Yuan Xu looked at the confession of conspiring with Er Zhurong and Xi Kangsheng to rebel, and fornicating with Yuan Ziyou, he held up the confession and asked Liu Tengdao, "Is this confession confessed by Ying Concubine herself?" ”

Liu Teng wanted to answer firmly, but when he saw the suspicion in Yuan Xu's eyes, he was a little lacking in confidence, and then Yuan Yi stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, how can the minister lie to you, this confession was interrogated by the minister himself, but he didn't expect to bring out a secret story of the palace, and the minister didn't dare to delay for a moment, so he came to ask the emperor to make a holy ruling." Seeing that Yuan Xu was holding up his testimony and delayed in making a decision, Yuan Yi was a little anxious, so he took the initiative to offer advice again, "According to the minister's opinion, the fact that Er Zhurong rebelled has been confirmed, and he has fled back to the north, the emperor should personally order him to return the military power, and then escort him back to the capital for disposal." Ying Concubine and Yuan Ziyou should also be executed by Ling Chi for such an insulting thing to disgrace the imperial court, but it is not appropriate to announce it to the public, they should be executed in secret, and they should be announced to the outside world to die violently, so as to save the royal face. ”

After listening to Yuan Yi's suggestion, Yuan Xu looked at Liu Teng again, and saw that Liu Teng also seconded the proposal, silently closed the confession and threw it on the case, "You guys look at it, I'm tired, I don't want to go to court today, let's retreat." ”

Yuan Yi and Liu Teng got their own satisfactory results, and happily went down to draw up the decree and arrange the execution of Ying'e and Yuan Ziyou. Although Liu Teng couldn't be sure that Yuan Ziyou was the one who broke into Liu's mansion at night, with his character of preferring to indulge in vain, he felt that all suspicious people could not survive.

Just when Liu Tengyuan was complacent about the success of his treacherous plan and was about to secretly execute Ying'e and Yuan Ziyou on the second day, a Taoist priest came to the mansion of Gaoyang Wang Yuanyong, saying that there was wealth to give to Yuanyong. The Taoist priest stood in front of the door and talked eloquently, "The sun and the moon are easy, but the yin and yang are difficult to reconcile." Eliminate the other's strengths, and naturally metamorphosis. Hearing this, the doorman was conscious and profound, and hurriedly reported to Yuan Yong, who arranged to meet in the inner room.

Gaoyang Wangfu Baidian Dan threshold, slender and slender, the degree of luxury since the Han and Jin Dynasty kings have not been extravagant, not to mention that the rockery in the courtyard is carved from a whole boulder, that is, the grass and trees are all after he took a fancy to the thousands of people, spent tens of thousands of dollars to transplant from the local area, and spent tens of thousands of dollars to cultivate. There are 6,000 servants in the house, and the fish are in, and if the carp crossing the river is dense when working, the division of labor is not even as fine as the royal family. Because Yuan Yong is happy and happy, some kabuki music is arranged in a few places in the courtyard, so that Yuan Yong will be accompanied by beautiful women wherever he goes, and the orchestral music will achieve the normalcy of the whole night.

The Taoist priest was not stunned by this luxurious scene at all, and calmly followed the doorman to the inner room of Yuanyong. Yuan Yongzheng is hugging Xu Yuehua to drink and have fun, this Xu Yuehua is round and jade, the skin is snowy, delicate and lovely, especially good at drumming and gonghou, especially "Ming Concubine Out of the Stopper" can move people's hearts the most, so Yuan Yong has been favored for many years. When Xu Yuehua saw the Taoist priest entering, she dodged away from Yuan Yong's arms and sat upright with a little dress.

Yuan Yong first gave the Taoist priest to sit down, and then said, "Listen to what this king's disciple said, the master is good at the art of Zhou Yi, and there is still wealth to be sent to this king?" ”

The Taoist priest saluted and said, "King Gaoyang is already rich and unspeakable, and the poor Dao is not the icing on the cake today, and I also ask the prince to retreat." ”

Yuan Yong saw that the matter was confidential, so he asked Xu Yuehua and his entourage to step back, close the door, and make a gesture of invitation with his right hand, "The master can speak." I saw that this Taoist priest slowly tore off the mask on his face, it turned out to be Xu Su, and Yuan Yong was so shocked that he pointed at him for a long time and couldn't speak, "You, aren't you the Xu Su, there are a lot of rumors about you in the palace, saying that you have fled south to Daliang, why are you here today?" ”

Xu Su bowed his hand and replied, "Lord, since the Empress Dowager was imprisoned, the King of Qinghe was slaughtered, causing loyal ministers and martyrs to be demoralized; Relatives and relatives, resentful inside and outside. Yuan Yi Liu Teng has gone against this far, which is unbearable. However, Zheng Yan assisted the king of Nan'an to rebel, but he was defeated, the king of Nan'an died, and Zheng Yan was imprisoned. My wife Yuling did not want to be humiliated by the eunuchs, and died generously, and I have survived to this day, just because the traitor is not removed, the political affairs are not clear, and the queen mother is not embarrassed, and the minister cannot escape. ”

Yuan Yong sighed regretfully, "Lord Xu's suffering, this king knows it well. Yuanxi's child is also the king watched grow up, since he was a child, he has talent, but he is too impetuous, his father has always thought that his character will sooner or later affect the family, and it is difficult to protect the glory of the family, and he has always wanted to abolish the position of his son and set up the fourth son Yuanluo. It was only because of the clan's efforts to protect and stubbornly resigned, that he attacked the title, but he was expected by his father, and now he died tragically, and he also affected his own brother, which really made the king feel heartache. ”

Xu Su looked at Yuan Yong's clothes and wiped away his tears, and continued, "King Nan'an has been intimate with King Qinghe since he was a child, and when he saw the tragic death of the prince, he rebelled in anger, also for justice. The prince thought of the family affection of flesh and blood, and wept sadly, which shows that he has a deep love for these princes. It's just that now the rebel is going to attack the prince's other nephew again, and the prince can't help it. ”

Yuan Yong heard that he wanted to save people by himself, he, the world's first-class useless and talentless person, hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, this king knows that you are talking about Yandan's child, it is an affair with a concubine, this is a humiliating thing for the emperor, I can't save it, and this king has no face to save it." ”

Xu Su had already guessed that Yuan Yong's uneducated and over-the-top character would definitely resign, so he took out a silk handkerchief hidden in his sleeve and presented it, Yuan Yong was so frightened that his face turned blue when he saw it, and he stammered with the silk handkerchief, "He, he's not dead?" ”

Xu Su nodded, "It's really helpless to hide incognito now, but it's also a last resort." My husband let me say, 'Flesh and blood are scattered, and it is difficult to be upright.' Now the hidden dragon is lying and waiting for the phoenix to sing. The gentleman also said that there is a saying in the ancient rites: The reason why the saint faces the south and listens to the world, and he who cannot get the reformer, is also close and respected. The prince and they are all connected with the blood of Emperor Xiaoming, it can be said that the same vein, the prince once refused to say that he was the son of the Son of Heaven, and he was the king, what is his reputation? Loyalty, the first emperor and the queen mother are all grateful, pushed as the ancestor model, so the first emperor entrusted the lonely minister, now the building will fall, the internal disaster has come, only the prestige of the prince can turn the tide. Yuan Ziyou and Ying Concubine are the people trusted by Mr., and Yuan Ziyou is the style of the father, and benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith are all of the highest quality. The Ying Concubine Niangniang is loved by the Queen Mother, and has been trying to rescue the Queen Mother from the cold palace and out of the temple, but now she is imprisoned and burdened with the notoriety of fornication. Mr. is willing to guarantee that these two people will never be suspicious of being unscrupulous, but because they touched the interests of the Yuan Yi Liu Teng thief party, they caused this trouble. The prince can not believe me Xu Su, but what Mr. said, how can the prince not believe it? ”

Yuan Yong was silent and asked for a while, "He has a grudge in his heart." ”

Xu Su sighed deeply, "Believe but see doubts, be loyal and slandered, can you have no complaints?" It's just that rescuing the innocent now and rescuing the Queen Mother is Mr.'s wish. ”

Yuan Yong asked, "Since he is a guarantor, this king can be trusted, and he will be the same enemy." I have heard for a long time that Lord Xu is resourceful, and I don't know if there is a good plan, so this king will act according to the plan. ”

Xu Su saw that the time was ripe, so he said, "I don't know if the prince can remember Anapu?" ”

Yuan Yong touched his beard and thought for a while, "Naturally, I know that he is the khan who fled to our dynasty during the Rouran infighting, and now he lives in the city, and he was named the prince of Shuofang County and the king of worms by the queen mother." What does this have to do with him now? ”

Xu Suhe made his debut, "The day before yesterday, Er Zhurong's subordinate Murong Shaozong came to Luoyang to make peace with Er Zhu Zhao and prepare to rescue the Ying Concubine. It was also a coincidence that he met me by chance in the back mountain outside Yaoguang Temple, because he had known Brother Zheng and had a relationship with me, so he informed me of the plan. Since Rouran's internal strife, Anapu's brother Yu Jiulu Chounu was killed by his mother, and Anapu succeeded to the throne of Khan not long after, his brother rebelled and defeated Anapu, and Anapu had no choice but to defect to my Wei country. Later, his cousin Brahmin led his army to kill Shifa, but because of the large number of supporters of Anapu, the Brahmin has not been able to justify the throne. So the Brahmin was attacked by Gao Che this time under the pretense of being unable to preside over the government, and wanted to welcome Anapu back to Mobei to pro-government, but in fact he was trapping Anapu. Anapu and this cousin have had a close relationship since childhood, and they would not have expected to be trapped. So now, as long as the prince tells Anapu the news, Anapu will definitely thank the prince for saving his life and agree to any request from the prince. ”

Xu Su paused for a moment to see that Yuan Yong hesitated, knowing that he was still worried, so he continued, "Lord Wang, although Anapu is now attached to our dynasty, but Rouran is now the only prince left, no matter who is in power, they need to rely on his fame, so my dynasty has always been courteous and dare not slack off." As long as Anapu goes to the Taiji Palace to ask the emperor to ask for troops, Liu Tengyuan has no military power, and the troops and generals are all in the prince's place, and the prince asks the queen mother to come to the court, why worry about the deadlock? It's just that time is pressing now, and there is news that Ying Concubine and Yuan Ziyou will be secretly executed tonight, and the prince should be as soon as possible. ”

Yuan Yong saw that Xu Su had analyzed this, weighed the pros and cons, and found that it was still beneficial to him, so he readily agreed, and hurriedly beckoned the housekeeper to send Xu Su out, and he immediately prepared a car to go to Anapu's mansion, and handled it one by one according to Xu Su's explanation. Na Anapu was very grateful for the news brought by Yuan Yong, and immediately went to see Yuan Xu in the Taiji Hall according to Yuan Yong's instructions, described the national situation, and asked the Great Wei to send troops to help him crusade against the Brahmins. Yuan Xu had never dealt with the diplomatic relations between the two countries, and looked at Yuan Yi with a blank face, and Yuan Yi was helpless, so he proposed to urgently recruit Yuan Yong into the court and join him. Yuan Yong, who was waiting for news in the house, heard that the family Ding reported that the palace had sent an edict to let him enter the palace to discuss politics, and immediately asked his family to prepare a sedan chair to enter the palace. Because of a little longer delay, the lives of Ying'e and Yuan Ziyou will be more dangerous, after all, it is not known whether Liu Teng will execute them in advance.

Looking at the top of the main hall, Yuan Xu looked childish with an expectant face, and Yuan Yi held back the sinister image, after listening to Yuan Yi's narration, Yuan Yong Zhengse asked the Queen Mother about the major affairs of the country explained when the first emperor died, and proposed that the Queen Mother should personally order the army to be sent to the court.

The matter of the national system is very high, when Anapu saw that Yuan Yi was still blocking the queen mother's arrival in the court, he asked angrily, "Isn't it true that the queen mother of the dynasty is imprisoned as the outside world says?" Everything about my Anapu today is a gift from the Queen Mother and the Emperor, but if there is really someone who is unfavorable to the Queen Mother, even if Anapu is now living in Luoyang, he will still shed the last drop of blood for the Queen Mother and eradicate the traitorous villain. ”

Yuan Yi looked at Anapu's fire-breathing eyes, and wanted to argue again, but he only heard Yuan Xu say, "Uncle, I know that this Manchu Dynasty civil and military questioned the Empress Dowager's imprisonment, but my uncle-in-law has been telling me that the Empress Dowager wants to be cleaned, and now even Anapu Khan is suspicious, I really feel that I should invite the Empress Dowager out to clear the prison for my uncle." Besides, the dispatch of troops is not your strong point, so please ask the Queen Mother to decide. Father-in-law Liu, you go and invite the Queen Mother out. ”

Although Yuan Yixin was unwilling, he had to make his eyes look at Liu Teng to dress up with the Queen Mother and invite the Queen Mother to preside over the overall situation.
