Plum Blossom Tribulation Chapter 28: The Imperial City Changes

The three parties set off together early the next morning to enter the palace to face the saint. Before entering the main hall, I heard a coughing sound, which was heartbreaking. The three of them didn't seem surprised, and walked into the main hall, where the emperor was lying on the dragon bed at this time, and only his figure could be seen through the gauze tent.

"You're finally here." His voice was very weak and weak, but it was his greatest strength. The body, which is relatively tough compared to last year, has become so unbearable in just over half a year.

"The three princes are summoned this time, mainly because the widow has little time, and the prince Kang is still young, and he needs more than three to assist him in the future, become a talent as soon as possible, and govern the country well."

The three of them looked at each other and only said yes. But it can be seen that although the emperor's time at this time is not much, it is not a matter of two or three days. The three princes were ordered to stay in the palace, and the news outside the palace was unknown.

"Brother, you haven't been here for a long time." Prince Kang saw King Li's affectionate shouting. Prince Kang is only thirteen or fourteen years old, he has seen the king since he was a child, and he will occasionally go to see him when he enters the palace, and the two are also considered to be in love, the prince seems to like the king very much, and he feels very cordial when he sees the king. But the prince's mother doesn't seem to like leaving the king very much, and every time she sends the king away under the pretext of not long after, and the king can naturally notice it, so the two don't see each other much, but even so, the relationship between the two is very good.

But the crown prince was not so cordial to the king of Hades and the king of Zhao, and after the two sides only talked politely for a few words, the prince left the king alone.

"You are the crown prince in front of outsiders, and I am just a prince." Liwang said with a smile, obviously he was in a good mood.

"It's the most annoying thing to be a prince or something, you can't do this, you can't do that." Prince Kang complained.

"You still don't grow up." The king sighed.

"I know, I'm just complaining in front of you. My father's health is not good, and he handed me over to you three princes. Prince Kang lowered his head and said, his tone sad . But I've heard that you don't want to help me, and some people say you want to harm me. Leave my brother, you don't really want to kill me, do you? Kang's tone was sincere, but at the same time fearful.

Liwang hurriedly covered his mouth, looked around, and said softly: "Who are you listening to nonsense, you will be fine, I will protect you, rest assured!" Then he took him in his arms.

"Leave my brother, if only I weren't the prince. But don't worry, I'll live well. ”

"The concubine has seen the king." In the midst of these words, a woman had come to the temple.

"Kang'er, don't do your homework yet." The woman rebuked.

Seeing this, the prince had no choice but to leave obediently.

"The king rarely comes to the palace, and there must be a lot of things to do this time, so it is inconvenient for the concubines to stay away from the king." The woman's tone was very light, but she could not refuse.

The king knew what he meant, and he also left.

"Wait, if I'm not mistaken, the prince is only three out of twenty?"

He didn't know what he meant, so he nodded.

"It's supposed to be that old." After saying that, he left.

=====

"The three princes will not live in this imperial city all the time, there are more and more guards in the imperial city, and the city has been banned for the past two days, don't the three princes feel strange?"

"What's so strange? Tell me about it? Mo Qi saw that he had something to say, and asked.

"What's strange, I don't think I need a simile, the three princes naturally know it in their hearts. Miss Mo can understand this situation if she can't see it. Zhao Huaijin said with a smile, and by the way, he also sarcastically said Mo Qi.

"What's the big deal." Mo Qi glanced at him again, the more he felt that this Zhao Huaijin was a scum. Randomly added: "Since the three princes are not worried, why do you need to worry?" ”

"Miss Mo's words are wrong!" Zhao Huaijin was even more interested, and said: "As the saying goes: take people's money and eliminate disasters for others." I am King Zhao's disciple, of course, for the safety of King Zhao, think about what King Zhao thinks, and worry about King Zhao's concerns. It is also an honor to give advice to King Zhao, solve problems, and repay death if necessary. Therefore, if you can't give advice for your master, what is the use value? Miss Mo, do you say yes and no? ”

Mo Qi was scared and couldn't say a word.

"A humble gentleman, Huai Jin holds Yu. It's really extraordinary, and compared with the little girl, there is no mercy at all. Rouge also interjected, deliberately stretching the first eight words very long, with contempt in her tone, Mo Qi also wondered, how could this Rouge speak for her. Rouge added: "What does a little girl know, isn't Zhao Gongzi's tongue playing the piano to the cow?" Why bother! ”

"Who plays the harp to the ox? Who are the cows? Mo Qi knew that Rouge must have bad intentions, and said loudly. Fortunately, the king pulled Mo to stop this dispute.

"Don't say that my outcast can't see what the situation is, even I, the prince, can't see what's wrong, every year at the end of spring, the emperor will organize a large-scale hunt, and the guards of the imperial city will naturally increase, how can these be strange because of the convention?" Li Wang looked at King Zhao and said.

Everyone can naturally see that the king is pretending to be confused, first, because of the emperor's health, no hunting activities were organized this year; Second, although the number of guards in the imperial city has increased in normal years, they are only on the outskirts of the imperial city, but this year, there are more guards in the interior, especially near the post station, which is three times more than in previous years, and it is obvious that these guards have another purpose.

"I'll go back to sleep and you talk!" King Zhao, who had been sitting with his head in his hands, said suddenly, and then turned to leave, as if he didn't want to discuss this topic more.

"It's rude." Mo Qi muttered quietly.

"That being the case, that bothers the two princes." Zhao Huaijin left with King Zhao with apologies.

"If you can't see the clue from the king, my Hades King is naturally stupid, and I can't see that there is anything wrong with this guard, but since Zhao Gongzi has something to say, maybe he will be able to figure it out in a few days, and he will leave." Hades also left, and Rouge also left, and when he went out, he didn't forget to hit him hard.

"Hey, lord, why do I think you will talk to death with a word." Mo Qi sat at the table, sighed with his head tilted.

"You're a bastard, and it's not because of you!" Liwang pressed Mo Qi's head hard and scolded. "You, you will read me well in the future!"

"If Brother Qingfeng is here, there will definitely be a way." Mo Qi muttered, "By the way, Lord Wang, just now Rouge said that he was a humble gentleman, Huaijin holds Yu, do you mean Zhao Huaijin?" How could I not see that he looked like a humble gentleman? Selling fame and reputation, I think it's a sven scum. ”

"He, he's the third-ranked son in the rivers and lakes." Although the king said this, he also carried a disdain.

"It's still ranked third, he's the third in this kind of goods, and dogs can eat." Mo Qi said in surprise, but forgot that dogs could eat feces in the first place, "I know that the first must be my Qingfeng brother, but what about the second?" Mo Qi asked more curiously.

"You don't know each other." The king seemed to be a little impatient.

"That's not right, I see that Qianling and Brother Qianlu are a hundred or a thousand times stronger than him! What son's ranking, all of them are unreliable. Of course, except for me, Brother Qingfeng deserves his name. ”

"What you Qingfeng brother, Fengfeng is mine, you bastard." Liwang seemed to be even more dissatisfied with her, and she mentioned Qingfeng more and more often.

Mo Qi pouted, and asked curiously with a bright brain: "Then you princes don't have a ranking?" ”

"Does this need to be ranked?" King Liwang finally showed a smile on the corner of his mouth, and said: "In terms of appearance, talent, and character, this king is naturally the first, how can these objective facts be changed by you untouchables." ”

"Oh." Mo Qi sighed reluctantly, and secretly glanced at him again, having to admit that this face was the best she had ever seen.

=====

"Lord Wang, this time Prince Ji Dan is not with the king, is it true as you expected, waiting for an opportunity outside the imperial city, no matter how bold he is to leave the king, he will not dare to openly oppose the royal family, and he will not win the hearts of the people." Rouge asked with confusion.

"How can people care about these things when they can't eat enough now?" Hades laughed.

"I have long heard that there are two hearts from the king, but I don't see anything unusual, and now in this situation, look at his fox tail is not exposed." Rouge said with a smile.

"Is there any news from Qianyu and Han Ge?"

"Now that the whole city is under martial law, only enter and exit, there is no news from Qianyu's side, do you want to find a way to inform him to enter the city?"

"Not for now, let's sit back and wait for the show." A smile tugged at the corner of Hades' mouth, as if everything was under control.

"By the way, the prince, the prince, has a lot to do with the king, but this is not good for us."

"Liwang is an ambitious man, he won't care about this friendship."

"Lord Wang, there is one more thing." Rouge whispered something in Hades' ear.

"Is the information reliable?" With a smile on the corner of his mouth, the Hades didn't wait for Rouge to reply, "This is a good thing, but don't make a noise." Keep looking. ”

"Yes, my subordinates say goodbye!" A smile also appeared on the corner of Rouge's mouth, after all, he rarely saw Hades praise her, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

=====

"The sky has changed these days, the little prince has to be careful! Otherwise, it will be difficult for us to get out of this imperial city. Zhao Huaijin said.

"This king wants to leave, who can stay." King Zhao played with the scimitar in his hand and shot at the target opposite, "In your opinion, this is the first thing Wang Zhen will do?" That Ji Dan Qingfeng can be called the first son, this kind of thing that does not go to the people's will, I'm afraid he won't do it. ”

"No matter how high the reputation of the prince of Ji Dan is, to put it bluntly, he is also working hard for the king. However, the temper of the king has always been incomprehensible, this time he did not take Ji Dan into the city together, but also expected that at this time entering the city will be more auspicious, once the situation changes, he will definitely notify Ji Dan outside the city to besiege the city, and then the imperial city will be isolated. According to reliable sources, there were not a few guards in the city who left the king. ”

"Hmph, this emperor is really confused, that trick is like killing Mo Li, it's really wishful thinking."

"Little prince, this disaster comes from the mouth." Zhao Huaijin reminded.

"When were these princes of the opposite sex afraid of him? It's just an autumn grasshopper. Zhao Wangzhi was not worried at all, and threw the small scimitar in the hand of the prize.

"Lord Wang, you are still young, and your heart is arrogant. But it's better to say less. Zhao Huaijin went out to take a look, but no one said. By the way, the relationship between the Liwang and the current crown prince is extraordinary, which is not good for us. ”

"Prince? Don't you say that I forgot, do you think this prince is somewhat similar to the king? King Zhao continued.

"Them?" Zhao Huaijin thought for a moment and said, "No." To be honest, Wang Junmei is known to the world, and it is difficult for a second one to appear today. Does the little prince still have a deep meaning when he says this? Zhao Huaijin asked puzzled.

"Stand down, this king is going to rest."

"Yes." Zhao Huaijin wanted to continue, but this little prince didn't want to listen to it anymore.
