Chapter 236: The Court

"Thank you, Mr. Chen, for your attention. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”

As the voice of the answer sounded, the figure walking in the hall was the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, Song Liang.

He is not any person in history, nor is he the emperor in the original book, just because, in his memory, when Chen Peng traveled to this world more than ten years ago, he was guided by Chen Peng to ascend the throne.

Therefore, is there such a person in history who does not say, but says that he is now broad-minded, faithful and benevolent. And I sincerely thank Master Chen for his guidance, and Chen Peng's words can be said to be true.

At this point, even now that he saw the luck golden pill that he had been waiting for for more than ten years, when it was held by Chen Peng in his hand, there was no fluctuation in his heart, as if Chen Peng would not be angry even if he threw it away.

"Lord Chen treats me like a mountain, even if he steps down from my throne, I don't dare to have any complaints."

Emperor Song was loyal in his heart.

But in the same way, Chen Peng would not throw away the golden pill that he had been thinking about for more than ten years.

"The Luck Golden Pill can make the saint live for thousands of years."

But Jin Dan is a foreign object after all, and when Chen Peng handed it to him, he couldn't help but mention two sentences: "Cultivators, cultivating their own Taoism and thoughts, in order to transcend heaven and earth." Don't forget your roots. ”

Others respect Chen Peng, and Chen Peng also reciprocates others.

Besides, you don't need any resources to point out two sentences.

"After taking the golden pill in the Holy Heaven, I meditated every day to stabilize my cultivation, which is the best. Don't worry about the affairs of the state. ”

I saw that in the main hall, Chen Peng said and looked at the dozen or so princes behind Emperor Song and said: "You are the heir of the saint, and you should do your filial piety for the saint.

After Emperor Song took the pill, he needed to refine the medicinal power and stabilize the realm, so as to lay a good foundation for the next realm.

Therefore, what Chen Peng meant in his words was to let the Song Emperor abdicate and cede power first, and let the seventeen princes take turns to take power.

"This is to choose the prince!"

But Chen Peng's words made the ministers in the palace hear it, but there was a loud bang in their hearts, and there was a thick tension in their eyes.

This is how they are thinking about how to stand in line so that they will not be suppressed by other colleagues in the future.

"Yes!"

But after Emperor Song heard Chen Peng's words, he bowed his hand when he took the golden pill, without any thoughts in his heart.

Because he knew that the seventeen princes took turns in power, he could also see who had the best power.

"Moreover, Scholar Chen is very kind to me and has single-handedly sent me to the throne, so far, even if I abdicate now, it is deserved! Heaven and earth promise.."

..

In the reception banquet, the dragon and snake were placed in the room, and when Emperor Song sat on the side of Chen Peng, who was on the top of the throne, he seemed to be thinking something in his heart, and glanced at the princes with different thoughts on his side.

And again, that is, today.

"During these days of retreat, you and others must obey the arrangements of Scholar Chen."

When the reception banquet in the main hall ended, after Chen Peng left for his mansion, he saw a cold light in the eyes of Emperor Song in the top position, and when he looked at the seventeen trembling princes, he also swallowed the golden pill and began the retreat.

"Yes, we will obey my father's orders!"

The princes trembled under the cold gaze of Emperor Song, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed.

At the same time, they have also decided in their hearts that even if Scholar Chen does something wrong or complains, they and others will wave their flags and cheer and shout vigorously.

"Maybe if that's the case, you can still get Lord Chen to support us and others to ascend to the throne."

After the princes saw Emperor Song leaving, they thought about it in their hearts and hid a lot of eyes.

In this.

After coming out of the palace, they looked at each other, did not speak, and left and went back to the palace to prepare.

Because they are afraid that they can't help it, they want to get rid of their competitors now.

"The eldest prince is ruthless, the second prince is ruthless, the third prince is cruel, and the fourth prince is inhumane... And I, on the other hand, have no skills, and I seem mediocre, but it is a little difficult to earn power."

When a prince chattered, when he looked at the older princes who had left, he thought of something in his heart, but he was happy.

"But I got a treasure the other day, maybe I could.."

..

Before you know it, the moon rises in the middle of the night.

"Driving.."

Squeak, squeak..

There was a slight sound of rushing cars, and when the wheels ran over the bluestone ground, I saw an ordinary-looking carriage stop in front of the gate of a luxurious mansion.

The decoration is simple and the colors are monotonous, so that the carriage seems to have been made improvisely, and with the smell of damp concrete from the trees, it looks unusually ordinary, like that used by farmers.

Of course, the premise is to ignore the Broken Realm groom and a handsome young man in a brocade robe sitting in the car.

"Is Lord Chen in this mansion?"

At this time, with the sound of inquiry, the young man quietly lifted the curtain and looked at the coachman.

"Yes, Sixth Prince."

After hearing the inquiry, the coachman quietly replied, but frowned, and when he looked at the sixteen carriages that were also simple and simple nearby, he turned sideways again, hiding the young man, that is, the sixth prince, and said: "Ten princes, I'm afraid it's not just us who came to deliver the treasure.."

The coachman said, and motioned to the sixth prince with his eyes to look at the carriage road at the corner of the street, which were hidden in the shadows: "Look there, there are also the eldest prince, the second prince and others are here."

The Ten Princes are the same prince who had said that he had obtained treasures in the past few days.

And his plan was to take advantage of the dead of night to quietly come to the Bachelor's Mansion and offer treasures, so that Scholar Chen would have a good impression of him.

But now when he came, he didn't expect that not only did he think of this method, but even the other sixteen brothers all came here, wanting to offer their treasures and fight.

"If you get closer to Lord Chen, you will have one more chance when you are competing for the position of prince." Near the front of the mansion, in a carriage in front of everyone, there was a young man thinking, it was the eldest prince.

"I don't know what treasures Lord Chen likes." Next to the carriage of the eldest prince is the second prince.

"Lord Chen should like precious ink treasures." Then, in the third carriage, the three princes held a scroll of documents in their hands.

Don't think about it, after they all brought their respective treasures at this time, they were guessing what Chen Peng liked, so that they could climb the relationship.

But in the same way, although they were thinking and speculating, there was only hissing insects in the night, no words, no conversation, and silence.

It's like that the princes in several carriages don't seem to know each other, and they are strangers.

"Hmph, I don't know what my brothers have prepared." But when the princes were in their respective carriages, they were wondering whether each other's things were more precious than their own.

"Princes, my family has long since rested, please wait and go back."

But at this time, while the princes were speculating with each other, with a "squeak", they saw the door that had been closed open and an old servant walked out of it.

I saw it, and the old servant's eyes showed a ghostly light in the moonlight, like a man-eating demon, it was Lao Wu.

"Elder Wu, we also saw that Lord Chen was tired all the way, and I wanted to send some treasures and magic medicines to show my gratitude." And after the princes heard Lao Wu's words, they were not angry with a subordinate who said such things to them.

After all, before they came, they had already inquired clearly, and they knew that this was a scholar of Chen, and they couldn't afford to offend.

"Thank you for your kindness."

But after Lao Wu heard the words of the princes, he didn't save face and refused directly.

At the same time, I saw him talking, as if he didn't see the disappointed eyes of the princes, and said to a young white-robed young man in a carriage alone: "Fifth prince, I heard that you are presiding over this imperial examination?"

The young man in the carriage was none other than the five princes.

Since he was born, he doesn't like martial arts, he doesn't like literature, he only likes to play with the power of the court.

Therefore, Emperor Song asked him to serve as a city and county ya, and also let the five princes take over the imperial examination every three years and serve as its chief examiner, wanting him to learn something.

But more than ten years have passed, and I haven't learned literature, but I have learned to figure out people's hearts.

"Yes, Elder Wu."

At this time, after the fifth prince heard Lao Wu call his name, his heart was suddenly excited, but his face instantly returned to calm, and he said cautiously: "You.."

"Two days later, Lord Chen will inspect the examination room, and you will need to guide me."

Lao Wu pointed out, walked to the carriage of the five princes, and after taking a paper bag in the hands of the five princes, he didn't want to say more, and went back to the mansion directly under the eyes of everyone and closed the door.

"The gift of the fifth prince, Lord Chen asked the old slave to collect it on his behalf."

Smack―

The gate closed, and as Lao Wu's words fell and the figure left, the street suddenly fell into calm again.

But in front of the gate, the five princes in the carriage could not hide the joy on their faces.

"What Wu Lao means is that in two days, Lord Chen will go to the examination room to inspect... Maybe there are disciples of Master Chen in the examination room, or people who need to go to the examination room... Maybe, this is my chance! A chance to get close to Scholar Chen! ”

When the fifth prince pondered Lao Wu's previous words, his face could not hide his excitement, and in his excitement, he hurriedly glanced at the coachman outside the car.

"Driving.."

The coachman understood and did not dare to delay.

Suddenly, I saw that after the carriage turned in one direction, with the sound of the carriage and the sound of the guard's driving, the carriage gradually moved away.

After all, the fifth prince needs to go back and prepare a lot.

For example, prepare a better gift, take advantage of this opportunity, and better tie up with Chen Peng.

And here.

Outside Chen Peng's mansion, when the remaining princes saw the five princes leaving, they saw that they looked at each other for a moment, and without saying a word, they left the bachelor's mansion directly.
