The eunuch stood aside and said comfortingly: "Your Majesty, don't say that, all the princes are dragons and phoenixes among people, which one of them can not take charge alone?" ”

Emperor Dong Zhou sighed lightly, and waved his hand a little weakly, "Don't comfort me, haven't I counted my own son in my heart?" Ye'er is a good one, but it's a pity that his body bones are too poor, if his body bones are slightly better, I don't have to be in such a hurry to do something to the side by side palace, but it's a pity... As for the rest of the few ones, the third scheming method is not bad alone, but it is not enough to put it on the table, not to mention the second and sixth children, if I don't deal with the side by side palace now, which of them can suppress him in the future? Now that it is difficult to separate the side king and the soldiers and horses of the frontier, there will be no such a good opportunity in the future. ”

In a word, it is that the side by side palace is too good, so good that the superior is jealous, the so-called high merit shocks the master, many times, it is not that the people in power do not know the loyalty of the courtiers, but the hearts of the people are changeable, who can guarantee that the loyalty of the side by side king to the royal family has always been like this, rather than waiting for him to become full of wings in the future and cause a catastrophe, it is better to directly strangle the threat in the cradle to simple safety.

However, the Emperor of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty may be too jealous of the palace side by side, so that he forgot that the current Eastern Zhou Dynasty has Mo Wuxian in charge, even if he is now disabled in both eyes, the Northern Desert Xizheng only dares to make some small fights, however, once the Eastern Zhou Dynasty is without Mo Wuxian, the entire court can only find a few generals who can barely fight, and how long can these last under the hands of the two countries that are eyeing each other. Even if someone is gifted and is born to lead troops to fight, how long will it take for this person to grow up, and will Bei Mo and Xi Zheng give him this opportunity?

But standing in the position of the Eastern Zhou Emperor, no one can say that his treatment of the side by side palace is wrong.

"Yes, the minion understood."

The Eastern Zhou Emperor nodded slightly, "By the way, have you ordered everything that should be ordered?" ”

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the people who go are all dead soldiers of the royal family, and they have explained that as long as the mission fails, they will say that they are instructed by Helian Fei."

"That's good, even if I can't get rid of Mo Wuxian this time, as long as he and Helian Fei get together, I can breathe a sigh of relief. My body is really getting worse day by day. ”

The tone of the Eastern Zhou Emperor was full of helplessness about his old age. The Buddha said that people have eight sufferings, birth, old age, sickness and death, love and separation, resentment and hatred, and they can't ask for it, even if they are the high Son of Heaven, there is no way to do this, they can only let it go, and they have no power to return to heaven. The white horse passes by, and the years are fleeting.

"Your Majesty, don't say that, you are in your prime, your body is just right, it is not a problem to live for a few more decades, we can't do without you in the Eastern Zhou!" When the eunuch heard the Eastern Zhou Emperor say this, he immediately knelt on the ground and shouted.

The Eastern Zhou Emperor looked at the kneeling eunuch on the ground, and smiled palely, "Okay, get up, I know my own body in my heart, it's just that I can only try my best to plan, even if I pity my night, I don't know what to do when I go." ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is gifted and intelligent, and he will definitely be able to live safely and smoothly for a lifetime." The eunuch comforted.

"I know that his ambition is not here, the royal family has deceived me a lot, Ye'er has been protected by me and the queen since she was a child, and she is not like a royal family person, and now I am still here, and I can still protect him, if in the future... Alas! ”

The Eastern Zhou Emperor is now in addition to the rivers and mountains of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and the most reassuring may be Zhou Qiye. The concubine of the middle palace, the heir to the throne in the name of righteousness, none of the younger brothers under him is a fuel-efficient lamp, no matter which one of the upper positions will not let him go, the Eastern Zhou Emperor even considered dividing him to a remote place in the future, and then leaving some soldiers and horses that are enough to protect him, even though the days may not be as comfortable as in the capital, but it is also considered to be the emperor of the sky, and he is at ease. The Eastern Zhou Dynasty used to have an example of the prince dividing the feud, but later the kings were divided, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was a mess, Emperor Jin spent half his life to cut the domain, and finally abolished this rule, but it seems that the idea of the Eastern Zhou Emperor is going to be reactivated, for the sake of Zhou Qiye, the Eastern Zhou Emperor is also trying his best to ensure that he has no worries for a lifetime.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is blessed with all the heavens, and he will definitely be safe and smooth for a lifetime."

"Hopefully." The Eastern Zhou Emperor sighed and closed his eyes again.

When he opened his eyes again, the worry and warmth in his eyes just now were all gone, only an ancient well was left, it seemed that everything just now was just an illusion, and the gray-haired and slightly emaciated old man in front of him was still the iron-blooded emperor who killed decisively, not sad or happy, happy and angry was not known to outsiders, "Tell me to go down and make all preparations, and once there is any movement in the palace side by side, I will report it as soon as possible." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The eunuch turned around and left, leaving only the old man who picked up the cinnabar pen again and began to review the folds on the table, and the whole imperial study was quiet and could only hear the rustle of the tip of the pen scratching the paper, lonely and solemn, cold and helpless.

The next day, when Mo Wuxian woke up, he only felt that his head hurt badly, and he couldn't exert any strength in his body, he looked around, and when he found that this was Gu Ange's room, he was obviously stunned for a while, frowning and trying to recall what happened last night, but found that his memory was stuck in the moment when he saw those assassins last night, and he couldn't remember what happened later.

After a long pause on the bed, he rubbed his still faintly aching head and walked out of the inner room, just out of the inner room, he saw the girl in Tsing Yi lying on the soft floor and sleeping in clothes, the green silk was slightly scattered, the eyebrows were picturesque, and she was gentle and affectionate.

At this moment, he actually had a feeling that he wanted to watch it all the time, it was as tranquil as water, and the years were quiet.

After looking at it for a long time, Mo Wuxian reluctantly withdrew his gaze, and did not disturb Gu Ange, who was sleeping soundly, and walked out of the room lightly.

As soon as they came out of the room, they saw Lihuo and Kuntu guarding the door of the room, and the two of them saw Mo Wuxian come out, their faces were overjoyed, and they hurriedly greeted them.

"The king..." The two of them had just spoken, but Mo Wuxian raised his hand to stop the next words.

Although the two were confused, they obediently kept their mouths shut.

Mo Wuxian walked past the two of them towards the swing chair in the courtyard, and the two followed closely.

After arriving, he lazily lay up, and then said unhurriedly, "What happened last night?" ”

Lihuo and Kuntu glanced at each other, and finally took a step forward from Lihuo and said: "What happened last night, the subordinates are not very clear, only know that the prince seems to be out of control." Then the head called Gongcai... Later, Yanzhi Gongzi also rushed back. By the way, Yanzhi Gongzi also lived in the mansion last night, he asked you to wake up and send someone to call him immediately, he has something important to discuss. ”

Mo Wuxian half-closed his eyes and hummed softly, "Then you go and call him over, and let the kitchen prepare breakfast by the way." ”

"Yes, and... There was a pause from the fire.

"Huh?"

"There is also a decoction simmering in the small kitchen of Fanyin Pavilion, which was boiled by Gongzi last night, saying that he asked the prince to take it after waking up, and the prince will see if it is..." Lihuo asked cautiously.
