Chapter 8: King Xuan is imprisoned

For several days, King Xuan locked himself in his room, leaving the room except for necessary activities.

At the same time, King Rui heard about this in Hezhou, but did not take any further action, but took people back to the fiefdom of Zhangzhou, and at the same time sent a team of men and horses to Yongning, the fief of King Xuan.

King Xuan locked himself in the room just to think clearly, why the guards of the King of the Dan family appeared in Shegu, combined with the results of interrogating the victims, King Xuan finally figured out the relationship a few days later, so he immediately entered the palace to face the saint.

In the Taichu Palace, the emperor leaned on his chair and listened to King Xuan's investigation.

"Although the king of the Dan family returned to Beijing, they could have allowed one or two guards to stay in our country, and took advantage of the serious disaster of the society to incite the people to rob the official food, and they wanted to blame me, killing two birds with one stone. If they didn't recognize the person in the painting, then the wolf ambition of the Dan King was revealed! ”

King Xuan said the truth, but to the emperor, it did sound like a made-up story.

"Uncle Wang said so much, is there any evidence?"

"Minister's Men and ......"

"It's not evidence based on a painting, but besides," the emperor tore open the portrait and said, "I don't look like it!" Uncle Wang didn't just draw a picture to deceive me in order to exonerate himself, right? ”

"Never like that!"

"Commodus!" The emperor ignored King Xuan, "Do you want to see if it looks like it?" ”

Commodus pretended to look at it carefully, shook his head and said, "The old slave can't remember, can't remember." ”

The emperor passed the painting to several calligraphers and painters, asking them if they looked like it, but these people became distracted, and they didn't know whether to answer whether they looked like it or not.

"It seems that Uncle Wang is conclusive and says what kind of big conspiracy this is, and it's all based on speculation!" The emperor got up and walked to King Xuan's side and said, "This one-month deadline will come tomorrow, and Uncle Wang has not come up with evidence to prove his innocence, which makes it difficult for my nephew to do anything!" ”

King Xuan still wanted to defend himself, but he was already controlled by the cavalry army that suddenly rushed in.

"For the time being, I will be confined in the Prince's Mansion and strictly guarded!"

King Xuan Xu is old, so he reacted, the emperor's nephew didn't care whether the case could be clarified, he only cared about whether he could take this opportunity to bring him down, and the funny thing was that he actually sent it to the door himself.

The subordinates who learned the news of King Xuan's arrest did not delay in the slightest, and the two hurried back to Yongning, and the others protected King Xuan's life day and night.

His subordinates returned to Yongning and informed King Xuan's only son, King Qijun, of what had happened in the past few days.

King Qi was filled with grief and indignation when he heard this, and he thought about his father, but he couldn't do anything, and his mother also washed her face with tears all day long.

They all knew in their hearts, let alone being wronged, even if their father really killed a few people, he would not be guilty as a prince.

But the emperor made a big fuss, obviously he was not right, but he said that the Son of Heaven was guilty of the same crime as the common people, obviously deliberately targeting his father.

My father had the trust of the emperor, guarded Yongning, defended southern Xinjiang, and held heavy troops and the power of life and death in southern Xinjiang, I am afraid that he has long been feared by the current emperor. King Qi had the heart to save his father, but he was afraid that he would be accused of rebellion.

At this time, the mother, who had been grieving, suddenly came in with a brocade box.

"Mother!" King Qi Jun helped his mother sit down and said, "Why did you come out, didn't you tell you to rest more?" ”

"I'm worried about your father," Princess Xuan coughed a few times and said, "He doesn't know what kind of torture he will suffer in Yunjing!" ”

"Father, he ......" King Qi Jun's face was sad, "It's all to blame for the child's incompetence!" ”

"Don't do that, kid, how can I blame you?" Princess Xuan put the brocade box on the table and lifted the yellow cloth covering it.

"Mother, what is this?"

Princess Xuan shook her head and said, "I don't know what's inside. I only know that your father often hides this brocade box, and often takes it out to see, he told his mother, this thing can not see the light of day, but if it is very time, it can only let it see the sun. ”

After a pause, the princess said, "I can't tell when it's an extraordinary time, and now that your father is in danger, I think it might be useful." ”

King Qi opened the brocade box, and there was a holy decree lying inside.

After reading the content of the holy decree, King Qi was shocked for a long time before he came to his senses and sat on the chair.

Princess Xuan was so anxious that she also picked up the holy decree to look at it, and she was also speechless in shock.

It turned out that this holy decree was handed over to King Xuan before the death of the emperor, and it was clearly written that King Xuan Rui should try his best to assist the current emperor, and if the current emperor misbehaves, the chaos will be born, and there are heirs, the old should be abolished and the new will be established, and his heirs will be assisted, and if there are no heirs, they can be replaced!

Instead!

The first emperor gave King Xuan the right to "take his place"!

The king of Qi County had an idea in his heart, the social drum and the state disaster were rare, and the people were displaced, but the current emperor was so happy, held a feast, built a warm incense palace, and spent extravagantly. Now that there is a holy decree, it is right to oppose him!

Princess Xuan knew what was going on in his heart when she saw her son's expression, and hurriedly said, "Son, no! The emperor is the emperor after all, how can he say the opposite! ”

King Qi retorted: "But what about Daddy? Today's emperor's words and deeds are ridiculous, and he still wants to harm his father, but now with this holy decree, see how he sits on the throne safely! ”

Princess Xuan is just a simple woman, and she has no idea for a while, but she can't watch her son put herself in a desperate situation in order to save the prince. I had to call the princess of the county to admonish my son.

The princess of the county understands that her husband is worried about her father's safety, but rebellion is really unavoidable, even the stupidest way.

Once you do this, not only will you and your family be charged with rebellion, but you will even anger the emperor and kill King Xuan directly, and when the time comes, it will be too late to regret it.

King Qi Jun paced impatiently, "Of course I know, but my father has relatives by his side, and they will protect him." ”

"Even if it is a personal follower, there are only a few people, and the emperor can send the Yulin Army to execute his father at any time! You are calm and rational on weekdays, why are you so confused at this time! ”

"They don't have any evidence that my father really killed someone, and they don't dare to do anything to my father!"

"You also said that they have no evidence, so doesn't that prove that there is still room for refuge? We can help my father prove it! ”

"How can we check, this is a crime to be added!"

Things fell into a dead end, and the princess of the county was speechless.

While there was silence, King Rui's people arrived at Yongning with King Rui's message.

It turned out that King Rui had already guessed that King Xuan had fallen into a trap, but he couldn't help, what he could do was to protect himself and try his best to protect King Qijun, after all, he was also his nephew.

This time he sent someone to Yongning to advise King Qi not to be impulsive, as long as he did not make a big mistake, King Xuan's life should be worry-free.
