At this time, in the Changchun Palace.

Twilight and Mabie stumbled in, and before they could salute, they fell to their knees and said tremblingly, "Princess...... Big, big things are not good! ”

Chu Ji was comforting Empress Renxiao in the dormitory, and when she heard this, she immediately stood up: "What's wrong?" ”

Xi Du looked at her in a complicated way, and lowered her head: "The slave maid was really curious, so she secretly ran to the Wuji Hall and saw it...... I saw the emperor...... The emperor died. ”

When Chu Cheng heard this, her body shook and she almost fell.

It's still the two of Huanyue and the stars, and they hold her up.

Mao Bi said again: "I heard the eunuch of Wuji Hall say that it was Chen Yu'an who killed the emperor, and Chen Yu'an, the master of Chen, has surrendered to King Hengping, and in order to show his loyalty, he gave the emperor to ...... To ...... "She and the two sisters, Xidu, are just girls who sell human teeth, and they never thought that one day they would become the palace maids next to the princess, let alone that they would experience the great changes in the palace that will go down in history.

Empress Renxiao seems to have been stupid.

She looked in the direction of the Wuji Hall in a daze, suddenly burst into tears, and walked towards the door: "Huarong, let's go find him." ”

Chu Ji helped Empress Renxiao, and I don't know how she came to Wuji Palace.

At this time, it was almost dawn, outside the Wuji Palace, there was a cold corpse in the coffin, Lin Boqin and several officials stood by the coffin, and when they saw Chu Hui, they couldn't help but be stunned.

Now that the incident has changed, those officials did not salute Chu Cheng and the queen, and turned a blind eye.

Lin Boqin walked over quickly, frowned, and said complicatedly: "Sister...... Condolences. ”

Chu Cheng glanced at his wounds that had not yet been bandaged, lowered his eyes tiredly, and tears condensed in his eyelashes: "Your wounds should also be treated in time." Birchin ...... I have lost my father, and I cannot lose you again. ”

Lin Boqin heard her fragile tone, his heart softened, and he held her hand: "Don't worry, I will accompany you." ”

Empress Renxiao crouched beside the coffin, looked at Emperor Jianwu's pale face, hid her face and cried: "I said back then, you don't have the destiny of the Ninety-Five, but you always don't believe me. Now you regret it, right? It's useless to regret it, it's late, it's too late. ”

“…… Queen mother. Chu Cheng took two steps forward and cried beside the coffin.

Empress Renxiao shook her head and continued to say with a crying voice: "Huarong, you don't know that Concubine Kang Hui was ...... That is, your imperial grandmother insisted on tampering with the edict and appointing your father to inherit the throne, but I actually did not allow it. But what's the use of me not allowing it? Your father and your grandmother have been blinded by the power of power, and they don't know how to govern a huge country. So that the military power is hollowed out, and everything they do is like a puppet! ”

"It's not your own, it's never, even if you use all means to get it, it's short-lived after all, and it won't last long." When Empress Renxiao said this, she raised her hand to touch Emperor Jianwu's cold face, thinking of his appearance when he was young, she choked up and said, "Mingxian, do you know how much I miss the beginning?" You are not the emperor, I am not the queen, let's go to Queping Mountain to fly kites, go to Taohuadu for boating and fishing...... But since you've been on the throne, it's all gone. ”

Sitting on the throne is to be in the company of power all day long, thinking about how to consolidate the throne, how to set strict rules, how to elect a show girl every three years to enrich the harem, and how to change from a prince who likes to sing poetry to a deep and indifferent emperor.

Chu Ji listened to Empress Renxiao's words, and her mind drifted back to when she was a child.

It seems that in her memory, her father has indeed become more and more serious and old-fashioned, and even the queen mother has restricted her freedom in order to cater to her father.

She can't go up to the trees to pick up birds, she can't go down to the river to catch fish, she can't do anything.

Looking at the cold corpse in the coffin, Chu Cheng burst into tears, thinking that if her father could come back to life, it would be okay for her to abide by the rules for the rest of her life.

However, none of this is possible.

Empress Renxiao touched Emperor Jianwu's face lovingly, suddenly turned her head sideways, and shouted: "Sister." ”

Chu Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Empress Renxiao's name was Auntie, not Huarong, and her heart suddenly became hot, and she hurriedly replied.

"Come here."

Empress Renxiao beckoned to her.

Chu Cheng approached, "Queen Mother? ”

I saw Empress Renxiao raise her hand, take down a luxurious phoenix hairpin from her messy sideburns, and said: "The queen mother knows that you like that Lin Boqin, this phoenix hairpin was made and given to me by your father and emperor back then, and now it ...... I'll leave it to you. Empress Renxiao asked Lin Boqin to come over again and put Chu Cheng's hand on his hand, "Lord Lin, although I have known you for a short time, I can see that you are a square and upright person, and I am also relieved that my aunt is following you." ”

Lin Boqin clenched Chu Cheng's hand, lowered his head and said seriously: "The queen can rest assured, I will not let Auntie suffer any more grievances." ”

Empress Renxiao smiled slightly: "I am no longer the queen, you don't have to be so restrained with me." ”

"Queen Mother, in fact, ......" Chu Cheng glanced at Lin Boqin, who told Empress Renxiao what happened after she escaped from the palace.

Empress Renxiao was stunned for a moment when she heard that the two had worshiped heaven and earth and had become husband and wife, but soon, she showed a sincere smile.

"Very good, very good, even so, the queen mother has no worries."

Empress Renxiao's eyes fell with tears, "Lord Lin, after the concubine...... I'll leave it to you. ”

Chu Ji felt bad in her heart, and was about to ask her what she meant, but in the next second, she saw Empress Renxiao hit the coffin with lightning speed, using all her strength, and her face was bleeding.

"The Queen Mother—"

The change was caught off guard, Chu Cheng and Lin Boqin were shocked, and hurriedly went to support Empress Renxiao: "Queen Mother, what are you doing?" Why do you want to do this? ”

Empress Renxiao shook her head with a smile, and looked at Emperor Jianwu in the coffin: "Mingxian...... I'm here to accompany you. I only wish ...... In the next life, you and I were born in the emperor's family, in the market and the countryside, and we were a couple...... Ordinary couples. ”

Her voice gradually lowered, and the raised hand hung lifelessly.

Chu Hui's heart was shocked, she raised her hand and touched Empress Renxiao's chest, she didn't feel her heartbeat, she suddenly became sad and angry, and she trembled from crying.

"Why are you leaving me, why!"

"Sister!" Lin Boqin ignored the injury on his arm and grabbed Chu Cheng, "The world is unpredictable, and blessings and misfortunes depend on it." Don't be sad...... No matter what happens, I will be with you. ”

Chu Ji was still struggling, but seeing that Lin Boqin's wounds were broken again, and blood gushed out, she calmed down.

Lying silently in Lin Boqin's arms, crying bitterly.

"Birchin ...... I have nothing left. ”

Lin Boqin felt sad, raised his hand and stroked her long hair, and said firmly: "Don't be afraid, you still have me." ”

***

Hengping King Chen Taishi and others rebelled out of the imperial city, gathered troops and Youzhou army, entrenched in the south, and prepared to fight against King Muxian.

Although King Muxian has the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies at hand, it is slightly inferior to the strength of King Hengping.

Huo Ying and several veterans led the army, and Chen Taishi, the king of Hengping, had clashed several times in the pass, all of which were evenly matched, and a long-term tug-of-war had already begun.

At the suggestion of Lin Boqin, King Muxian did not ascend the throne.

However, the king of Hengping couldn't bear it, and he chose Yinzhou as the capital in the south, and named Chen Taishi as the first-class Dingguo Gong, and Fengyu Wen Huaihai as the first-class Anguo Gong, and also selected officials to go to court every day, and did enough to be the leader.

But it is precisely because King Hengping is so anxious that everyone in the people thinks that he is a crooked emperor who is not rightly named.

Without the support of the people, King Hengping established himself as emperor, which is very funny.

The reputation of King Hengping is getting worse and worse, but the voice of King Mu Xian is getting higher and higher. Obviously, they are all princes with a heart of rebellion, but King Mu Xian has become a decent person who seeks justice for Emperor Jianwu, and most of them hope that King Mu Xian can defeat King Hengping as soon as possible and unify the chaotic and disintegrated Great Yuan Dynasty.

After all, the civil strife has been too long, and the foreign races in the Quartet have always been ready to move, eyeing each other.

King Mu Xian now lives in the imperial city, and the officials under his command are also concentrated in the palace. Lin Boqin and Chu Cheng informed King Mu Xian about the matter, and King Mu Xian smiled faintly, but praised them for their talent and beauty, which was quite fateful.

After all, in the face of family and state affairs, King Mu Xian didn't want to care about the grievances and hatred of a princess of the previous dynasty.

On this day, King Mu Xian summoned Lin Boqin to the Golden Jade Palace to discuss political affairs.

There is a star worship attic on the Golden Jade Palace, which is six stories high, and you can overlook the entire imperial city when you climb to the top.

Lin Boqin climbed the attic and saw King Mu Xian, dressed as a scribe, and was holding the wine to the wind, looking into the distance by the railing.

When King Mu Xian saw him coming, he smiled slightly, and ordered the eunuch to hand over the wine glass: "Boqin, you came just in time, come and see the entire Great Yuan River." ”

Lin Boqin took the white jade wine glass and stood side by side with King Mu Xian.

The glazed tiles of the imperial city shine in the sun, with red walls and green trees, pavilions and pavilions, and warped cornices. Beyond the vast palace complex, there is a noisy and lively long street, with rows of shops and pedestrians. In the distance, the green hills are winding, and the white clouds are endless.

"Such a good country, how can you bear to see it shattered and shaky."

King Mu Xian sighed.

Lin Boqin said in a deep voice: "The prince doesn't have to worry, now he only needs to deal with the rebels calmly, and our side will win." ”

King Mu Xian was noncommittal.

He had a drink with Lin Boqin before continuing: "Now that I have collected six fragments in my hand, there is still one piece missing. If you find the last treasure map, you can speed up the situation of breaking the evenly matched situation and dominate the country as soon as possible. ”

How Lin Boqin didn't understand this truth.

He also summoned everyone to look for Second Sister Chun, and in the end, Chu Cheng and Huo Ying infiltrated the military camp of King Hengping and arrested Lu Guinian.

At the beginning, Second Sister Chun told him that the last piece of fragment was handed over to him, but he thought about it for a long time, and he didn't expect when Second Sister Chun gave him a treasure map.

Even when Gu Jingtong and others rummaged through Wangzhou, they didn't find anything on paper.

King Mu Xian didn't talk much about the treasure map with him, but just asked him: "Whether this king wins or rebels against the party, the state will definitely be greatly damaged." Birchin, tell me, if you don't have a treasure map, how can you quickly restore the country's strength? ”

He took a sip of wine and smacked his lips.

Lin Boqin pondered for a moment, and said admittedly: "Now that Dayuan has many ills, it is urgent to reform the internal and military system. At the same time, it is also necessary to develop production, which can be emulated from the pre-Qin Dynasty, abandoning well fields, opening up Qianmo, and rewarding cultivation wars. Since ancient times, the people have taken food as their heaven, and it is indispensable to reclaim barren land, abolish excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and build water conservancy, all of which are the top priorities. ”

King Mu Xian became interested, pondered and asked, "How to implement it?" ”

These have already been in Lin Boqin's mind thousands of times, and at this time, it is eloquent: "For example, the construction of water conservancy, the annexation of land in this dynasty, the uneven assignment of labor, and the deserted fields, can be proposed by the officials and the people to propose land planting methods, pointing out the pros and cons of Pitang embankment, and it is effective, and it can be rewarded according to the size of the utilitarian ......"

The two were talking about political affairs in the attic, and before they knew it, they were talking about the sun shining brightly.

Later, King Mu Xian couldn't help but stroke his palms and laugh, and patted Lin Boqin on the shoulder: "Today, I am holding a wine cup with Boqin, talking about the world's society, and watching the situation of the country, but my mind is much broader." ”

"Xia Guan is just saying what he understands."

"Wonderful, wonderful." King Mu Xian laughed, "This king can't wait to implement these reform plans. ”

When Lin Boqin heard this, his heart moved.

At this time, the sunset on the west mountain, the sky was full of red glow, dyed the eaves of the green mountains red, and also dyed his eyebrows with a layer of glow.

He raised his eyes to look at the mighty mountains and rivers, and also hoped to appease Sheji as soon as possible, and live up to the heart of a loyal and courageous courtier.
