They walked in front of the Qianqing Palace and saw Lin Jian'an, Lin Jian'an was very angry when he saw Jian Huaizhen, and his willow eyebrows were upside down. He hurriedly stepped forward and said to Jian Huaizhen: "The eldest princess, the emperor has ordered, and the emperor said that no one can see him." ”

Jian Huaizhen didn't even think about it, and slapped him twice heavily, which was already swollen and red and high, but these two slaps were skillful, and Lin Jian'an was suddenly slapped aside.

Jian Huaizhen didn't even look at him, so he took Tang Panic and scattered, and broke into the Qianqing Palace, those palace maids and eunuchs, seeing Jian Huaizhen menacing, they all knew that Jian Huaizhen was strong in martial arts, and a plum blossom needle could kill people invisibly. So they could only watch her walk in, and no one dared to come out and speak.

Zhu Jianshen was sitting on the throne, he had just gotten the news that Jinyiwei had set fire to the Candle Shadow Shake Red and bulldozed the confession door, and the disciples of the confession door and the candle shadow were imprisoned nine times out of ten.

Zhu Jianshen felt very happy in his heart, since he had a mustard with Jian Huaizhen, he was very jealous of her in his heart, lest she use the power in his hands to oppose him, so he tried every means to exterminate Jian Huaizhen's power, but he didn't dare all the time. But now he knows that if he doesn't send someone to encircle and suppress the Candle Shadow Shake Red and Confession Gate, so that Tang Jingran is busy with the forces of the Candle Shadow Shake Red and the Confession Gate, and can't go to Baitou Mountain with Yu Mian, then once Tang Jingran goes to Baitou Mountain with Yu Mian, maybe most of them will go and have no return, and he can't watch Tang Jingran die, so he made this decision and sent Jinyi Wei to encircle and suppress the Confession Gate and Candle Shadow Shake Red.

In fact, the confession door and the candle shadow shaking red were originally very powerful, but they just didn't expect that Jinyiwei would be hostile to them, which was lost on neglect of precautions, and they were willing to take advantage of the opportunity. After doing this, he had long expected that Tang Jingran would come to him to ask for his guilt, and he didn't know how to face Tang Jingran, so he chose not to see her, and would rather send guards to block her and hurt her, rather than see her. He only felt that he was kind to Tang Jingran, and now Tang Jingran didn't know, and when she waited until later, she would know sooner or later.

As for Jian Huaizhen, he had already made the worst plan, that is, to completely turn his face from Jian Huaizhen, since Jian Huaizhen did not have the golden and jade staff left by the emperor in his hand, then he had nothing to fear.

When Jian Huaizhen broke into the Qianqing Palace with Scattered Tang Shock, Zhu Jianshen was reviewing the chapters, and he was startled when he saw Jian Huaizhen and Scattered Tang Shocked. He saw that Tang's snow-white clothes were dyed red, obviously injured, and hurriedly asked, "Shocked, are you okay?" ”

Tang Jingran glanced at him coldly and said, "Your Majesty, you actually wiped out the confession door and the candle shadow shake red, you said that I am the head of the confession door and the candle shadow shake red, do I have anything to do?" Zhu Jianshen was so refuted by her that he didn't know what to say for a while.

Jian Huaizhen just looked at him coldly, without saying a word, her eyes were as cold as ice through the ages, making him only feel terrified, he had never seen Jian Huaizhen look at people with such eyes in his life, even when she faced Shi Heng, Xu Youzhen and Cao Jixiang, she had never shown such a resentful look, but now to herself, she looked at herself with such eyes, Zhu Jianshen couldn't help but ask himself in his heart, did I do something wrong, but he knew that there was no regret in this world, He just did something wrong, and he could only make a mistake at this point.

He glanced at Jian Huaizhen and said with a smile: "Why is the eldest princess here, I haven't seen you for a few days, are you okay?" ”

Jian Huaizhen didn't say a word, she just sat down next to her, and Scattered and Tang looked at her, not knowing what she was planning in her heart.

Zero Luo continued to say to Zhu Jianshen: "Your Majesty, why do you want to annihilate the Confession Gate and the Candle Shadow Shake Red, and kill the disciples in my faction, they have done a lot of intentional things for the country and the people. At the beginning, seven years ago, the great victory of Warat had their immortal merits, and then when the emperor was killed, they also rescued you, have you forgotten all of them? ”

"I haven't forgotten." Zhu Jianshen said for a long time. "It's just that I have a last resort as the emperor, you don't know if you have heard of a sentence, called the side of the couch, how can you allow others to sleep soundly, I do this, it is just to follow Song Taizu's cup of wine to release military power and cut off the harm for myself. The eldest princess, you are the elder of the palace, and you should know this matter better than me. ”

Jian Huaizhen still looked at him, without saying a word, his eyes were as cold as cold to people's hearts. After a long time, Jian Huaizhen said a word.

"Let go of the disciples of the confession door and the candle shadow shaking red."

Zhu Jianshen shook his head, and said matter-of-factly: "The eldest princess, Miss Tang, is not a disciple of the Candle Shadow Shake Red and Confession Sect, it's just this kind of Jianghu school, if I let them go, I don't know what big rebellious things they will do tomorrow, maybe they will gather to rebel." The reason why I did this was also to take precautions. ”

"Your Majesty, you don't have to say so much truth over and over again, do you think you're right? If you are unkind, the people will be the opposite. If the emperor was a benevolent monarch, he would not have so many concerns. Your Majesty, now that the Confession Gate and the Candle Shadow Shake Red have suffered heavy losses, I only hope that the Emperor will let the rest of them go, otherwise, I don't dare to guarantee that the disciples of the Candle Shadow Shake Red and the Confession Gate will do anything. When Tang said the last sentence, his voice raised a lot.

She looked at Zhu Jianshen, there was a deep resentment in her eyes, Zhu Jianshen was stunned, and said for a long time: "It's not that I don't want to release people, but I have already said that I am a national society, and it is absolutely impossible to let them go so easily for the sake of the imperial court." I advise the eldest princess and the frightened girl not to bother here, please go back. With that, he waved his hand, apparently giving the order to evict the guest.

Jian Huaizhen sat there calmly, without saying a word, she just said to Lingluo: "Lingluo, you go to the Huanghuali wooden couch in my dormitory and take a golden rosewood box." ”

"Yes." Scattered agreed, and hurriedly walked out to help Jian Huaizhen get something. Although she didn't know what Jian Huaizhen wanted to pick up for herself, she knew that since Jian Huaizhen said so, that thing must be very important.

"Since the eldest princess and Miss Tang have something to do, then I won't keep you, you can go back first." Zhu Jianshen said above.

Tang was stunned and stared at him coldly, while Jian Huaizhen looked at him expressionlessly, and the eyes of both of them were as cold as indifference. Through this indifferent gaze, he felt the turbulence under his eyes.

Zhu Jianshen saw that the two of them did not move, and knew that it was not appropriate to use force now, with the martial arts of Jian Huaizhen and Tang Jingran, the two of them joined forces, I am afraid that they would be more guards, and no one could beat them. The most important thing is that Jian Huaizhen is the eldest princess of the dynasty, if she sends guards to besiege the eldest princess, it will be unfilial, a benevolent and unfilial, disloyal and unrighteous emperor, who is willing to serve him, so Zhu Jianshen had to confront the two of them without saying a word.

After a long time, Jian Huaizhen said to Tang Jingran: "Jingran, you come and sit down next to me." ”

It turned out that Tang was standing there, the wound on his body was torn, and blood was oozing again. Jian Huaizhen couldn't bear it, so he asked her to sit beside her.

Tang Jingran resolutely sat down beside Jian Huaizhen, she sat there quietly, her expression was still so beautiful, but her expression was awe-inspiring and inviolable, just like a cold statue, Zhu Jian looked at her in a daze, and for a while she was in a trance.

At this moment, Scatter walked in, holding a gold-rimmed box of rosewood in her hand, which looked golden and brilliant, with a nine-tailed dragon inlaid on it.

Scattered walked in front of Jian Huaizhen, saluted, and handed the box to Jian Huaizhen, Jian Huaizhen sat on the Huanghuali chair, and slowly opened the box in the armchair.

Zhu Jianshen and Tang Jingran couldn't help but look at what was in the box, and the two of them looked at it and thought about it in their hearts.

Tang Jingran only felt taken aback, but Zhu Jianshen felt cold, as if he had fallen into a 10,000-year-old glacier, it turned out that in Jian Huaizhen's rosewood dragon gold-rimmed box, it was nothing else, it was a golden jade staff.

After Jian Huaizhen took out the gold-cast golden jade staff, he slowly walked in front of Zhu Jianshen. No, she put the golden jade staff in front of Zhu Jianshen and said: "Please take a look at the emperor, is this the golden jade staff given by the ancestors, you can beat the unconscious king, beat the traitorous ministers, and beat the concubines in the palace." ”

Zhu Jianshen originally thought that Jian Huaizhen's golden jade staff had already been lost, but he didn't expect that she had always kept the golden jade staff by his side, he was slightly stunned, and thought: Could it be that she deliberately made a fake golden jade staff to deceive herself in order to hold herself hostage. So he put the golden jade scepter in his hand and looked at it slowly, only to see that the golden jade scepter was indeed made of gold, diamond gold, and fine iron, with a line of words written on it, which read: Made by the Yongle Emperor, and below is the Panlong ring, which is a line of small characters: Beat the unconscious king, beat the traitorous ministers, the rod and the concubines of the six palaces.

Seeing this, Zhu Jianshen only felt very cold in his heart, he pointed at Jian Huaizhen with his finger and said tremblingly: "The eldest princess, you lied to me, it turns out that you still have this golden jade staff." ”

Jian Huaizhen nodded slowly and said, "Yes, I have always had a golden jade scepter in my hand, but I originally thought that this golden jade scepter would have no effect, but I didn't expect that it would be able to be used today." Your Majesty, you have disappointed the palace too much, if the palace doesn't beat you today, there will be no way to explain to the people of the world. Jian Huaizhen said as he raised the golden jade staff in his hand.

Zhu Jianshen was extremely scared at this moment, he knew that Jian Huaizhen's cane could be heavy or light, if it was heavy, it would be possible to take his own life, because after all, Jian Huaizhen was a martial arts master in the world, if she had the heart to take her own life, would it be difficult? What's more, now that she has really done something wrong, it is not an exaggeration for her to beat herself to death, and she is just following the instructions of her ancestors, so Zhu Jianshen is very scared.

Zhu Jianshen didn't expect Jian Huaizhen to really take out the golden jade staff, which surprised him very much, he was stunned for a long time before he said in a daze: "Eldest princess, haven't you already lost the golden jade staff, then why can you get it back now." ”

Jian Huaizhen smiled slightly and said: "The reason why I said to you at the time that the golden jade staff was lost was because I had already thought that it did not exist in my heart, and I didn't want the golden jade staff to pose any threat to you and affect you, so I said this on purpose." In fact, the golden jade staff has never been lost, it has always been by my side, but I never wanted me to use it, if I used it, it must be the time to turn against the emperor. ”

Zhu Jianshen was stunned for a long time before he said, "The golden jade staff you used to hit Shi Heng last time—" he asked.

Jian Huaizhen nodded and said, "Yes, it was this golden jade scepter that was used, and Shi Heng died under this golden jade scepter." The reason why I told you at the time that I used a fake golden jade staff was just to calm your royal heart. I didn't expect that you would do such a rebellious thing so far, and if I don't invite the golden jade staff out today, it seems that I can't ask for an explanation for the person who is red in the confession door and the candle shadow. Jian Huaizhen said as he put the golden jade staff in his hand.

Zhu Jianshen looked at her blankly, looked at her for a long time, and suddenly sat down on the throne, and said: "My life is over, that's it, that's it, the eldest princess, since you want my life, then I will give it to you." And he sat there, not saying a word.

When Jian Huaizhen saw him like this, she couldn't bear it, she said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, no one wants your life, and this palace doesn't want to, this palace only wants to assist you to become a Ming Jun wholeheartedly." But I really didn't expect that you would do this kind of thing until now, because you like to be shocked, and let Yu Mian go to Baitou Mountain to suppress bandits, this palace is acceptable, but in order to weaken the power of this palace, and at the same time, in order to leave the shock stain in the capital, and not to suppress bandits with Yu Mian, you actually used this kind of measurement, don't you think it's too despicable? ”

Zhu Jianshen looked at Jian Huaizhen, he saw that when Jian Huaizhen spoke, there was still a trace of pity in his tone, he knew that Jian Huaizhen was not completely affectionate to himself, as long as he said a few good words at this moment, maybe she could invite the golden jade staff back, so he said to Jian Huaizhen: "The eldest princess, the so-called word love is the most hurtful, don't you know?" People say that life is a love affair and this hatred is not about the wind and the moon, a love word, is the king of eternity, and he can't escape the fate of being controlled by it. ”

Jian Huaizhen didn't expect Zhu Jianshen to suddenly say this, she was stunned, she felt that what Zhu Jianshen said was still reasonable, and she couldn't escape a love word herself. Love is a thing, and it hurts people the most.

She said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, you are right, love is a thing, and it hurts people the most, and this palace also has a deep understanding, but you can't use this as an excuse to hurt the people of the world." If so, everyone can hurt people casually, then the woman you love, how pitiful she is. ”

Zhu Jianshen heard Jian Huaizhen say this, and his tone seemed to forgive him, so he said slowly: "The eldest princess, the grandson knows that he is wrong, and asks the eldest princess not to care about what the grandson does, the grandson is also impulsive, so he did this kind of thing, please forgive the eldest princess." ”

Jian Huaizhen sighed lowly, she saw Zhu Jianshen's face, he knew that Zhu Jianshen didn't really accept this breath from the bottom of his heart, but asked for the golden jade staff himself, and he couldn't help it. If he didn't follow his will, then he would only face the danger of being scolded by the golden jade cane, and after weighing, he naturally chose to temporarily obey Jian Huaizhen's orders, which made Jian Huaizhen very disappointed.

She has always felt that Zhu Jianshen is a very responsible person, but it can be seen that this is not the case, Zhu Jianshen is not only not a responsible person, but when difficulties come, he only wants to escape, but does not want to solve the problem.

When he did something wrong, instead of thinking about what he was wrong and how he could change it, he was always evading responsibility, but what could Jian Huaizhen do, could she beat the emperor to death? What's more, as long as her golden jade staff goes down, the emperor will hate her from now on, and their love between ancestors and grandchildren will be over from now on.

Thinking of this, Jian Huaizhen sat down in front of him and said, "Your Majesty, it's not impossible for you to ask this palace to forgive you today, but this palace has three conditions. ”

"What are the three conditions?" Zhu Jianshen subconsciously asked, what he was most afraid of now was that Jian Huaizhen would really use the golden jade staff to scold him, if this was the case, then his life would definitely not be guaranteed, so he hurriedly asked Jian Huaizhen.

Jian Huaizhen thought for a while, and then turned around and said: "These three conditions are actually very simple to say, first, this palace allows you to release all the disciples of the Candle Shadow Shake Red and the Confession Gate, and issue a holy decree, from now on, the imperial court must no longer embarrass the people who confess the Confession Gate and the candle shadow shake red, they are all people who have meritorious service to the court." Seven years ago, in the great battle of Warat, if it weren't for them, I am afraid that the border pass would still be in the flames of war for days. ”

"Okay, grandson obeys the orders of the eldest princess, and the eldest princess continues lightly."

Jian Huaizhen thought for a while, and then continued: "This second condition is that the emperor personally go to the edict prison and invite my brother and sister-in-law out. ”

"If they don't come out, then what can I do?" Zhu Jianshen asked.

Jian Huaizhen smiled and said: "This palace believes that the emperor must have a way, if the emperor can't invite them out of the edict, then the palace will continue to ask for gold and jade staffs." My brother and sister-in-law are both loyal and good ministers of the Daimyo Dynasty, especially my brother has made great contributions to the imperial court, and my sister-in-law, Princess Luoxue, although she is the daughter of Emperor Jingwen, but Emperor Jingwen is also the second grandson of the Emperor Kaizu of the Ming Dynasty, and also the nephew of my father, so what if it is his daughter, is his daughter going to be criticized by my so-called Ming orthodoxy? ”
