Chapter 575: The court is turbulent

With the movement of Luo Qianyan's hand, Yan Yunwu's eyes also moved, and he forgot about Luo Yunyi for a while.

The butterfly felt that someone was approaching, and opened its wings and wanted to fly away, but Luo Tianyan took the first step and locked it in the palm of her hand, fluttering in her palm.

Yan Yunwu asked her to let go of the butterfly, but she closed the window, afraid that the butterfly would fly out, and as soon as the butterfly was let go, she fluttered her wings and flew up, flew around the house a few times, and finally landed on the window paper again, and did not move.

"Why didn't it fly?" Yan Yunwu looked at the wilted butterfly and asked with a frown.

"Because it wants to go out into the world, not be locked up in a house." Luo replied.

"It's windy and rainy outside, and even birds can eat it at any time." Yan Yunwu reached out to touch it, but the butterfly only moved its wings.

"But there are flowers outside, morning dew and sunshine." Luo Qianyan's answer moved Yan Yunwu, and she probably understood what her daughter wanted to say. She opened the window and let the butterfly out, and the butterfly flew away happily, up and down.

Yes, a weak butterfly longs for freedom, for the world outside the window, let alone an aspiring young man. Maybe the protection she gave was not the flowers he needed to pass through the sun, but the arsenic, preventing him from breaking out of the world by himself, although there are many dangers in the outside world, but it is also wonderful, if you don't break through, how can you call a teenager?

"Say, what are the two of them doing now?" Yan Yunwu understood what she meant, and was relieved, showed a smile, and asked Luo Tianyan.

"Maybe I'm tired from the journey and eating meat at a tavern," Luo Qianyan winked at her, "Maybe it's the same meal as you." With that, she brought the chicken soup to her, and shook the spoon in the soup.

Yan Yunwu couldn't help but cover her mouth and smile, her brows finally relaxed, and she took the bowl and drank the soup by herself, obviously feeling a lot happier.

Luo Tianyan breathed a sigh of relief, and when she finished eating, she was about to go out and go back to the room with the bowl, but she happened to see her father who went to the court walking back with a very bad face, and went directly into the study without saying a word. I didn't even come to appease Yan Yunwu, and I didn't say hello to Luo Tianyan anymore.

Although it's also very serious on weekdays, it's always plain, and since my brother left, I often appease my mother, why is it so angry this time? Luo Tianyan secretly guessed in his heart.

Counting the time of the previous life, should something big happen at this time? She couldn't help but feel a little worried, and even her steps became sluggish. I kept thinking about what was going to happen.

Recently, this month, it's almost going to be a matter in the court, except for this, she really can't think of anything else, could it be that someone on the road collided with her father? It's really unlikely.

There was a guess in her heart, Luo Tianyan became a little uneasy, because the previous life was too miserable, so she was extremely sensitive to the current situation, thinking about things in her heart, and she was in a trance all day.

After dinner, after touching his father and mother to almost sleep, Luo Tianyan immediately told Luzhu to inquire. The dew had been gone for about half an hour, and during this time she had been pacing back and forth in the room, frowning.

After the dew drops came back, they hurriedly ran to her ear and whispered a few words to her, and Luo Tianyan's brows furrowed even deeper.

Sure enough, it's a matter of the court.

In the palace, the old emperor's body is getting weaker and weaker, and there are rumors that the emperor will die on the throne soon, and the world is about to change hands. As for where the rumors came from, there is no way to know, but the increasingly fierce rumors spread all the way from the people to the court, causing panic everywhere.

The old emperor was so angry that he wanted to find out the rumor-mongers but he couldn't do it, so he could only endure pretending not to hear it, and still had no interruption every day, wanting to use this to erase those rumors and make them self-defeating, but he accidentally coughed up blood in the court once, and the eunuch next to him shouted in panic, and the old emperor knew that there was no one around him who could use it......

Even if it is useless to hide his illness and physical condition, the news of the emperor's serious illness will surely spread quickly all over the city, not only will not subside, but will only intensify.

The old emperor looked at this day and sighed: "This world, I'm afraid it's really going to be chaotic." "It's not that he's childless, but it's better than not, and the sons under his knees will only think about how to seek power.

Although the DPRK and China have not been peaceful, the current situation is becoming more and more complicated, and the undercurrents of forces from all sides are surging. The important ministers of the court either set up their own small forces in a group to ensure that even if the emperor falls, they will not be targeted individually, without help, or take refuge in several princes with a relatively large chance of victory, and become a member of a certain camp to ensure that there is someone to protect them at that time. Everyone is not so afraid of death, but the safety of the family is tied to themselves, and they have to be cautious.

Now that everyone is in danger, there is a tense atmosphere everywhere, and a smile or no greeting on the road in the morning, passing by, will become the source of a day of panic, so it takes a lot of brains to find out if there is anything wrong with the news.

The days passed day by day in uneasy speculation, and now is the most intense time to snatch the fat of the imperial power, the greedy eyes of all parties are cast on the court, wanting to get a piece of the pie, and even some of the big merchants on the rich side also boldly want to participate, trying to reach out to the court, and the small merchants are planning a retreat for themselves, in case of a mutiny, we must strive to minimize the loss, the so-called gods fight, mortals suffer, this side is the same, nobles fight, civilians suffer.

Several princes in the court secretly competed, and the old emperor was upset, but he had no choice but to endure the sadness in his heart and continue to maintain the calm on the surface. However, he soon found that he could not maintain even the semblance of calm.

This morning, in the early court, it was originally a quiet court, and the old emperor was sitting on the dragon chair, and suddenly the fourth prince Baili Mingle stood up: "Father, the son thinks that the military power in the court should be mobilized, after all, the father is in poor health, and this military power is related to the whole country, and Lord Luo is too old to hold the military power anymore." ”

"Then you say, who is suitable?" Without waiting for the emperor to answer, he was asked with interest in the cold night, and the emperor opened his cloudy eyes, glanced at him, and did not speak.

"Erchen thinks that at present, of course, it is more appropriate to hand it over to the imperial uncle, but the imperial uncle is now powerful enough, so ......" Baili Mingle suddenly changed his words, "Erchen still thinks that it is better to hand it over to Erchen." ”

The old emperor didn't speak, and he didn't smile for a hundred miles, and everyone turned their eyes to Luo Minglei, who didn't say a word.

Luo Minglei has been loyal to the emperor from beginning to end, although he faced the four princes who were like wolves and tigers on the opposite side, and the tentative eyes of others, he still shook his head firmly: "The emperor trusts the minister, and hands over the military power to the minister for safekeeping, although the minister is old, but he still does not dare to live up to the emperor's trust and kindness, as for the follow-up arrangements, the minister believes that the emperor has his own decision in his heart." ”

When the emperor heard this, a beam of light instantly burst out in his eyes, and it quickly dimmed. What if there are loyal ministers who follow him, he can't change the overall situation, and he can't help protecting his loyal ministers, thinking about it like this, although he is moved, he also feels ashamed of his courtiers, so he didn't say anything, Luo Minglei saw that the emperor was sluggish, and he was also sad in his heart.

The fourth prince didn't expect Luo Minglei to reject him, didn't he slap him in the face in public? Absolutely unbearable. So he suddenly stared at him viciously, and said with a threatening meaning: "Lord Luo's loyalty is really touching, but it can't be said that he can concentrate the military power in his own hands, right?" ”

The other princes also had a tacit understanding at this time to temporarily unite the front and echo it.

"What the fourth prince said makes sense, Lord Luo is still holding the military power at this time, I'm afraid there is no thief's heart, right?"

"It's worrying."

Luo Minglei was unmoved, the four princes repeatedly threatened to no avail, and finally the emperor announced his resignation, but he had no choice but to give up indignantly.

On the way down, Luo Minglei was worried about the situation, and suddenly the fourth prince caught up again, grabbed him and said with a smile: "Lord Luo, what a coincidence." ”

Luo Minglei stopped and looked at him and didn't speak.

"Since Lord Luo is unwilling to hand over the military power, I am not reluctant, so can Lord Luo help me do a big thing?" There was a hint of ruthlessness in Baili Mingle's smile.

"The four princes are both civil and military, and it is still not my turn to wait for the ministers to participate in any big things, so the four princes should find someone else, and save me from dragging you back with this old bone." Luo Minglei bypassed him and wanted to leave.

Seeing that the threat was useless, the fourth prince was annoyed at that time and shouted: "Bold! Let me ask you, can you salute when you see this prince just now? If you don't even obey the etiquette, what kind of minister are you? Come on, drag this old thing down and punish me! ”

The people next to him hesitated, and the four princes were annoyed when they saw this, but at this time, Baili Hanye came over, patted the fourth prince on the shoulder, startled him, and when he turned around and saw Baili Hanye, a smile immediately appeared on his face: "Uncle Huang......"

"What do you have to know in your heart, don't go too far, Lord Luo is an old minister around the emperor, you are disrespectful to him, don't you look at the emperor in your eyes?" Baili Hanye said lightly, "I just have something to discuss with Lord Luo, so I will take the first step." With that, he took Luo Minglei and left.

Baili Mingle was about to leave, but was stopped by someone on a cold night: "The fourth prince plans to leave like this?" ”

Baili Mingle gritted his teeth and slapped his mouth, and the people of the cold night let him go.

Hearing that Luzhu probably finished talking about the matter, Luo Tianyan frowned: "Luzhu, you continue to inquire about the affairs of the court in the future, and tell me everything in detail, especially related to my father." ”

The destruction of the previous life...... Luo Qianyan sent away the dewdrops, thinking by herself, she wanted to find out the ins and outs in order to save her family.
