"Not necessarily. I know that you are indeed strong in martial arts, so last night I deliberately let the little girl drugged the cup of tea that you gave you, I know that you once liked a woman, exactly like my family Wanyun, so you must have no defense against Wanyun. At that time, Wanyun watched you drink that cup of tea with her own eyes, and she left, you try it, is it soft hands and feet now. Hahahaha. At this, he smirked.

Ji Qihan moved slightly, deliberately showed a frightened look on his face, and said, "You." ”

"What's wrong with me? Am I wrong? I'm really sorry, Mr. Ji, I cut off your beard in the middle. Actually, I don't want to do this, but well, people don't do it for themselves, and the heavens and the earth will be destroyed, do you think I'm right? After saying that, he ordered those people to come forward and arrest Ji Xinhan.

Ji Kaihan looked at him, glanced at Yao Zhenyin again, and said, "Slow, there is still one thing in my heart that I don't understand, and I want to ask Yao Xiangye to answer." As long as Yao Xiangye answers me about this, I will be caught. ”

"Okay, if there's anything you want to ask, just ask me."

Ji Kaihan nodded and asked, "The thing I want to ask you is very simple, I just want to know what you plan to do with the Queen Mother?" ”

"My sister? Don't worry, the Queen Mother and I are brother and sister after all, and I won't attack her no matter what. ”

"Then what about the grandson of the Queen Mother, that is, the crown prince."

"Little Prince?" Yao Yongsheng hesitated for a moment, but still said categorically: "The little prince can't live no matter what, even if I can let him go, I believe that the prince will not let him go." ”

"So you're going to catch the little prince and ask the prince for credit, aren't you? Am I guessing right? ”

Yao Yongsheng's face turned blue and white for a while and said, "Yes, even if you guessed correctly, so what?" Anyway, he will die sooner or later, and death at the hands of others is also death, and death at my hands is also death. Why, then, did he have to die at someone else's hands? Sister, don't blame me for being ruthless. ”

After hearing him say this, Yao Zhenyin's face turned blue and white for a while, obviously she was already angry to the extreme, and after a long time, she sighed and said: "People say that tigers don't eat children, but I didn't expect you to treat people who have flesh and blood relatives with you so ruthlessly." I misread you, brother. ”

"If a man is not for himself, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed. It's still the same sentence, sister, haven't you done so many things for yourself, for your children and grandchildren? Have you ever thought about the Yao family? Speaking of this, he said to those people: "Come on, arrest Ji Qihan for me, if he resists, he will be killed." ”

"Yes." Those people agreed, and they came forward to capture Ji Lianhan.

They walked up to Ji Xianhan, and Ji Xianhan deliberately pretended not to move.

Yao Yongsheng was very happy when he saw Ji Xianhan's state, thinking to himself that Ji Qihan was now like this, and a few random warriors could catch him, so his face was extremely proud.

And at this time, someone suddenly shouted outside: "The prince's word has arrived." ”

"The prince's message?" Yao Yongsheng was slightly stunned, when he was hesitating, someone had already walked in, after that person walked in, Ji Qihan and Yao Zhenyin glanced at each other, with a happy look in their eyes, that person was none other than the current crown prince.

After Taifu walked in, he glanced at everyone, then walked in front of Yao Yongsheng and said to him: "Master Yao, the prince specially ordered me to pass on the message. I order you to take Empress Dowager Yao, Mr. Ji, and all the others back to the palace immediately. ”

"Why should I trust you?" Yao Yongsheng glanced at him and said a little angrily.

Yao Yongsheng originally thought that he could receive great merit, but who knew that now he was disturbed by him, how could he not be angry in his heart?

"Everything I said below is the truth, there is no half-word lie, if Yao Xiangye doesn't believe it, please take a look at this." As he spoke, he took out Li Yuanxiao's token.

After seeing the token, Yao Yongsheng's face turned blue and white for a while, he didn't know what to say, he looked outside, and saw that Taisun Taifu came over with a large number of troops, and the troops in his own house were nothing compared to the troops in his hands, and they were not opponents at all.

So in desperation, he had no choice but to nod and say, "Okay, since that's the case, then you can take them away." ”

So Taisun Taifu took a group of people and prepared to go to the palace, before he left, he glanced at Yao Yongsheng and said to him: "Yao Xiangye, the prince specially issued an order to let you go to the palace too." ”

"I'm going too? Why should you go? Yao Yongsheng asked.

When he said this, he couldn't help but get a little nervous, he still knew more about Li Yuanxiao's temper, why did Li Yuanxiao suddenly summon everyone into the palace, what did he think in his heart? This made him feel puzzled.

The most important thing is that if Li Yuanxiao turns his face and doesn't recognize people, what should he do if he wants to kill them all?

After thinking about it for a long time, he said: "The old man is a little unwell, so he can't enter the palace for the time being." ”

Who knew that Taisun Taifu immediately said: "No, this is the holy decree of the prince, the prince has already said that he will order all the people to enter the palace and see him." If you don't go, then I'll have to bet you to go. ”

After hearing him say this, Yao Yongsheng's face showed a look of anger, but now, he had no choice but to enter the palace with him.

And at this time, someone had already brought the little prince out, and as he walked, he said, "The little prince is here." ”

The person who captured the little prince was still Yao Yongsheng's person, but now that Taisun Taifu had come, his people immediately replaced Yao Yongsheng's person and took over the little prince.

When the little prince used to be the grandson, he used to worship the grandson and the prince as a teacher, but now when he saw the grandson, there was a trace of confusion in his eyes, and he couldn't help but call him: "The prince." ”

Taifu didn't look at him, and said to everyone: "Okay, now without further ado, everyone should follow me into the palace immediately." ”

So all the people went to the palace together under their escort.

Ji Kaihan saw that everything was expected by him and Yao Jiyin, and only then did he feel a big stone in his heart, how could he Ji Kaihan have participated in such a dangerous operation before, and now the lifeblood of the entire North Korea is in his hands, how can he not be nervous?

Luckily, everything went smoothly.

Soon, everyone came to the palace, and when they arrived at the palace, Taisun Taifu said to everyone: "Everyone come to the main hall with me." ”

So all the people came to the main hall together under his escort, and when they came to the main hall, they found that Li Yuanxiao was sitting high on the throne, and all the courtiers were below.

Some of the courtiers had a happy look on their faces, some had strange expressions on their faces, and some were depressed and sad.

It can be seen that everyone's reaction to Li Yuanxiao's administration is still different.

Suddenly seeing Yao Zhenyin and the little grandson coming, everyone was taken aback, and at the moment, some courtiers who were still more loyal to Yao Zhenyin hurriedly saw the Queen Mother, while others didn't seem to see it, in short, the situation at that time was very embarrassing.

Yao Zhenyin glanced at Li Yuanxiao, thought about it, and walked straight to Li Yuanxiao and sat down.

Li Yuanxiao didn't expect Yao Zhenyin to be so calm in this situation, he felt very surprised, but despite this, he still glanced at the courtier.

Yao Zhen sat down by himself, this action made Li Yuanxiao dissatisfied, but he still endured the dissatisfaction in his heart, glanced at everyone, and said: "Imperial sister-in-law, the reason why I called you today to invite you and the prince to the palace is to tell you something. ”

Yao Zhenyin glanced at him and said coldly: "If there is anything, you don't have to say it, I know if you don't say it, in short, there is no way to discuss this matter." The world belongs to the prince, and the prince will definitely govern the country well, and if you have to forcibly seize the throne, it will be a chaotic minister and thief, and everyone will be punished for it. If you still miss your imperial brother's spirit in the sky, and you don't want to be a chaotic minister and thief, the mourning family hopes that you will stop quickly. ”

Li Yuanxiao didn't expect Yao Zhenyin to say such a thing in this situation, so he couldn't help laughing and said: "The imperial sister-in-law's words are not right, the reason why I called the courtiers today, and the imperial sister-in-law, and Mr. Ji, the envoy of the Ming Dynasty, is to make this matter clear in front of everyone." I believe that the courtiers of the older generation know that in fact, this world was originally passed on to me by my father Li Yuanxiao, and the ministers at that time thought that I was too young, and the country had just been pacified for a long time, if I was the emperor, I was afraid that there would be no way to better govern the country, so the ministers let my brother Yuanzheng ascend the throne, that is, the first emperor. After the first emperor ascended the throne, he once had an agreement with his ministers, that is, when he returned to old age in a hundred years, he would definitely pass the throne to me, who knew that when he died, he did not follow this rule, but passed the throne to his son. It's a pity that his son didn't stay on this throne for a few years, and he also passed away, and now, it is reasonable, this throne should also be passed on to me, right? Now, the prince is very small, shouldn't the world pay me back? If the imperial sister-in-law insists on refusing, wouldn't she become an unkind, unjust, disloyal and unfilial person, how can she be worthy of the royal ancestors? ”

After hearing him say this, Yao Zhenyin's face did not change in the slightest, and she said softly: "What the imperial brother said does have a certain truth, but at that time, the first emperor wanted to return the emperor to the imperial brother, and the imperial brother himself made an oath in front of the courtiers, saying that he would never covet the throne again in this life, and he would never want to be the emperor again." Could it be that the emperor himself has forgotten everything he said? ”

Speaking of these, Li Yuanxiao became a little irritable, and he said: "The imperial sister-in-law's words are wrong, and I did say this, but in that situation, if I didn't say it, I am afraid that I would not even have my life." Speaking of which, it was all the royal brother who forced me to say it, I believe that the imperial sister-in-law was also clear about the situation at that time, but now she has to come up with these words to provoke me, isn't it difficult to block the world's mouths? Speaking of this, he glanced at Yao Zhenyin, with a very depressed expression on his face.

Yao Jiyin turned his face away, no longer looked at him, just looked at the courtiers and said: "In short, this world is the prince's world, the prince's country, the prince will definitely govern the world well, the prince is indeed not very old, but he is already very smart, and he is quite benevolent." The reason why your imperial brother refuses to pass on the world to you is not because he wants to occupy the world for our children and grandchildren, but because you always have a sense of anger in your heart. Whatever you do is done by yourself, and you will be punished heavily, if the people of the world are under the rule of law like you, there is not a day that can live a good life. ”

"Imperial sister-in-law, do you think that the emperor and I will not be a benevolent monarch when I ascend the throne? Then you are wrong, I will definitely reduce the taxes, and I will never raise the taxes, so that the people can live a good life. The reason why you are pouring dirty water on me now is nothing more than hoping that I will not be an emperor, and now I don't have to talk so much nonsense to you. The reason why I invited you here today is not to ask for your consent, but to inform you, whether you agree or not, I have already made up my mind to do this, anyway, now the Danshu Iron Scroll has also reached my hands. Mr. Ji. After he finished speaking, he glanced at Ji Kaihan, obviously wanting to ask Ji Kaihan for the iron scroll.

Ji Qihan hesitated slightly, then walked to the front and handed him the things that Yao Jiyin gave him in his hand.

"Hahaha, there is a saying that the unrighteous are helpless, and the righteous are helped, and the righteous are helped, and this is the truth. Now, even the envoys from the Ming Dynasty have to help, it can be seen that the position of the Ming Dynasty is already very firm, I believe that the imperial sister-in-law will not be the enemy of the world, let alone the Ming Dynasty of the great country, right? When he said that, he laughed.

Yao Zhenyin said slowly: "As we all know, the eldest princess of the Ming Dynasty is a sworn sister with the mourning family, which side the Ming Dynasty will stand on and who to help, this is really a self-evident question." ”

"The emperor's sister-in-law's sentence is the same, in front of the country and politics, all the people want to help the master of nature, not a mediocre and incompetent monarch, let alone a child. I believe that the eldest princess of the Ming Dynasty is wise and decisive, and naturally has her thoughts in her heart, otherwise, Mr. Ji will not help me get this Danshu iron scroll. Hahaha. After saying this, he raised the Danshu iron scroll in his hand and said with a smile.

In fact, the Danshu iron scroll in his hand was wrapped in a very delicately embroidered yellow scarf, seeing him so full of ambition, Yao Zhenyin pursed the corners of his lips and said to him: "You keep saying that what you are holding in your hand is the Danshu iron scroll, do you have any evidence?" ”

After hearing her say this, Li Yuanxiao was stunned for a moment, yes, Li Yuanxiao just asked Ji Kaihan to help him take the Danshu iron scroll from Yao Zhenyin, but in fact, this Danshu iron scroll has not had time to check it, so he has already sent someone to Yao's house to bring everyone to the court, think about it carefully, he is indeed in a hurry with this move.

It turned out that yesterday, Ji Kaihan had already revealed the news to him, telling him that he would get the Danshu Iron Scroll from Yao Jiyin early this morning, and asked him to send someone to Yao's Mansion today no matter what, because if he didn't guess wrong, Yao Yongsheng would poison them.

And in the case of a change of dynasty, it is best to get the consent of the monarch of the previous generation, so that it seems justifiable, so he finally decided to refer to Ji Kaihan's opinion, and then sent Taisun Taifu to bring all the people, in any case, he doesn't want Ji Kaihan to encounter any accidents in North Korea, otherwise, he knows that Jian Huaizhen's temperament has always been strong, with Jian Huaizhen's character, she will definitely not give up so easily with North Korea.

When the two armies fought, the strength of the Joseon Dynasty was not comparable to that of the Ming Dynasty in any case, and maybe Korea would fall into chaos at that time, all of which was caused by Ji Compassion, so the gains outweighed the losses, so he adopted Ji Compassion's strategy and sent people early in the morning.

But he never saw whether the Danshu Iron Scroll was real Danshu Iron Scroll, if it wasn't for Yao Jiyin's reminder, he wouldn't have thought of it, could it be that Yao Jiyin had long suspected Ji Qihan, so he took the fake Danshu Iron Scroll to him?

Thinking of this, his face turned blue and white for a while, but he tried his best to calm himself down, and said with a smile: "This is naturally the Danshu Iron Scroll, if it is not the Danshu Iron Scroll, what is it?" This Danshu iron scroll was personally obtained by the envoy of the Ming Dynasty, Mr. Ji Qiang Hanji, from the hands of the imperial sister-in-law, is it still fake? Could it be that the iron scroll of the Danshu in the hands of the imperial sister-in-law was originally fake and deceitful? He said aggressively to Yao Zhen.

Yao Zhenyin just sneered and said nothing.

Seeing this situation, Li Yuanxiao felt a little panicked in his heart, he felt that the most important thing to do now was to end this embarrassing scene and ascend the throne as emperor as soon as possible, otherwise, if he wanted to ascend the throne again, I am afraid it would not be so simple.

Why didn't Yao Zhenyin panic at all? This is something he never understood.

There are two possibilities, the first possibility is that Yao Zhenyin is sure that she will win, and the other possibility is that she deliberately pretends to be calm, in any case, if it is the latter, it is better, if it is the former, the situation will be unbearable.

Thinking of this, he glanced at Yao Zhenyin and said to her: "Okay, now that there is the testimony of the courtiers, the Zen concession of the former queen mother and the crown prince, plus the support of the courtiers, it is impossible not to sit on this throne." So someone brought up the dragon robe that had been embroidered a long time ago, and wanted to crown him.

At this time, Ji Qihan laughed, and Ji Qihan's laughter sounded particularly harshly in this hall.

Li Yuanxiao couldn't help but panic a little, he glanced at Ji Qihan and said, "Mr. Ji, are you okay?" ”

Ji Qihan said with a smile: "I'm fine, I just know that if a country is to be governed by the rule of law and punishment, then the country must not be able to last long, and if a country is governed by benevolence and virtue, then that country will definitely be eternal." Lord Wang, what do you think you use to govern the country? Also, why do you think the courtiers will convince you and support you as the prince? Is it because they are really convinced of you, or is it because you have seized some of their handles, and they have no choice but to be forced to submit to you? ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"It's simple." Ji Qihan said with a smile: "What I mean is that I have never supported you to be the emperor from beginning to end, because you gave me the Nine Turns Soul Restoration Pill and forced me to do it." Everyone in the world knows that the eldest princess of the Ming Dynasty and the Empress Dowager Yao of the Joseon Dynasty are good sisters, if I help, I will definitely help the eldest princess's sworn sister Empress Dowager Yao, how can I help you this irrelevant person? And you are seeking to usurp the throne is really a great rebellion, you also said, the so-called more help for the righteous, little help for the unjust, now that you are a person who has lost the way, how can I Ji Qihan help you? ”

"What did you say?"

"Didn't you hear what I said? Also, I can tell you very clearly that what the prince is holding now is not the Danshu Iron Scroll at all. ”

After the courtiers listened, everyone's faces changed greatly, they couldn't help but discuss, they knew that North Korea could not get the support of the Ming Dynasty, what did it mean, although the Ming Dynasty and North Korea had always been good friends, but if Li Yuanxiao had to be the emperor, if Yao Zhenyin was dissatisfied, Yao Zhenyin went to cry to her sworn sister Jian Huaizhen, and then things may not be so simple.

What's more, now the Danshu Iron Scroll is not in his hands, so everyone is talking about it, and seeing this situation, Li Yuanxiao suddenly became angry.

Li Yuanxiao glanced at Ji Qihan and said to him, "Mr. Ji, what are you doing?" Didn't you already promise this prince to help this prince get the Danshu iron scroll in his hands? ”

"Yes, that's true, but it's just a ploy I set up with the Queen Mother. Now the Danshu iron scroll is not in my hands, but in the hands of General Li Chengyu, and now General Li Chengyu's generals must have invaded the imperial city, and will soon attack the palace, I believe that it will not be long before the throne of the prince will not be able to be kept. So I persuaded the prince to accept it when he saw it, so as not to let himself do things that were difficult to return. ”

"What do you say? You said that Li Chengyu's generals have now stormed the palace? ”

"Yes, what I said is true. Lord Wang, you might as well listen to it, is there a faint sound of the general's call outside? ”

After hearing him say this, Li Yuanxiao listened carefully, it seemed that there was really a shout of generals outside, and the faces of the ministers suddenly changed, this, what is going on?

Li Yuanxiao was finally stunned, he raised his head, glanced at Yao Zhenyin, and asked her, "Sister-in-law, isn't Li Chengyu already dead?" Why can you go out and move the rescuers again? ”

"Yes, Li Chengyu is indeed dead, but his death is for you to see. You hadn't forced the palace at that time, and when my son was already in poor health, the mourning family deliberately resorted to a trick and fell out with Li Chengyu, but in fact he had already taken the Danshu iron scroll and walked outside the gate. At that time, you only knew that Li Chengyu was dead, and your imperial nephew was about to die, so you must have already made up your mind to force the palace. But what you never dreamed of was that at that time, the mourning family had already sent people to Guanwai, Li Chengyu was a dead person, it was indeed very easy to get out of the city, not to mention that you were not on guard in the whole city at that time. After he left the city, he naturally arrived outside the gate quickly, and after he arrived outside the gate, he was waiting for the order of the mourning family at any time. Sure enough, as soon as he arrived outside the gate, you have already started the plan to force the palace, and the reason why the mourning family gave up the palace so easily was because the mourning family was waiting for an opportunity. Speaking of this, Yao Zhenyin's eyes were faint, and there was a trace of calm in his eyes.

After hearing her say this, Li Yuanxiao was stunned for a moment, he pointed to Yao Zhenyin, and asked her: "It turns out that everything is your plan as a poisonous woman, you have long expected that I may force the palace, so you deliberately gave up the palace, right?" ”

"Yes." Yao Zhenyin replied to him categorically, and said: "I have long known that you are restless, the last time when my emperor inherited the throne, the reason why you did not change was because the court was united at that time, and it was not so easy for you to ascend the throne and usurp the throne." And although my emperor is not in good health, he is working hard, and it is really easy to deal with you. But now the situation is obviously different, now that my grandson is young, you will definitely take this opportunity to seek the throne, how can the mourning family give you this opportunity? You're right? The mourning family knew that you had placed eyeliner by the side of the mourning family, but all along, the mourning family didn't know who the eyeliner was, so the mourning family lived in his house first according to what my brother Yao Yongsheng said, and deliberately used the Danshu iron scroll to confuse you. I know that you are afraid of the Danshu Iron Scroll, so you will not attack my ancestors and grandchildren so easily, in fact, the Mourning family's guess is indeed right. Not long after, Mr. Ji came to North Korea to borrow troops, so the mourning family planned to let Mr. Ji assassinate you, and take the opportunity to pull out the rebellion behind him, if he can assassinate you, it is good, if he can't assassinate you, then he can take the opportunity to eradicate the rebellion behind him, which is not bad. In fact, Mr. Ji really did not disappoint the mourning family, and in the end, I found out that it was the mourning family's brother and niece who betrayed the mourning family, and you also tried to buy Mr. Ji, do you know that a chivalrous warrior like Mr. Ji is not coercion and temptation at all, nor can it be bought. The reason why he agreed to help you at the beginning was because the mourning family asked the Taifu to pass on a sentence to him, and that sentence was the opposite. ”

Li Yuanxiao didn't seem to expect that Taifu was also Yao Zhenyin's person, so he pointed at Taifu and said hatefully: "I didn't expect that you are also the person of the vicious woman of Empress Dowager Yao." I think at the beginning, I have always been kind to you, and I treat you as if you were my own brother. ”

Taifu lowered his head and said slowly: "Yes, the prince is indeed not thin on his subordinates. From a personal point of view, Zai Xia is really grateful to the prince, but from the perspective of the country, he can't be a disloyal, unrighteous, sincere and unfilial person, and he definitely can't allow rebellious ministers and thieves to seize and usurp the throne. If the prince understands the next day, he should know what kind of thoughts he thinks in his heart, and he will not pull him together to help the prince seek to usurp the throne. ”

After hearing him say this, Li Yuanxiao nodded and said, "Yes, I should have known a long time ago, you are someone who will not do such a thing." It's all to blame for me being carried away for a while, and I didn't even think of it, it's a pity. ”

"There's nothing to regret about this, the most regrettable thing is that I haven't figured out why you hooked up with the Queen Mother's brother, Lord Wang? You've been colluding for a long time? Or did they just collude recently? ”

Yao Yongsheng has been standing on top of the court and not speaking, when he heard these words, he knew that the general trend had gone, he walked in front of Yao Zhenyin, knelt down, and said to her: "Sister, please, please let me go, I am your brother, I am also a member of the Yao family." And although I participated in Li Yuanxiao's plot to usurp the throne, I also told him that I wanted him to promise me that I would not be able to harm my sister's life. ”

A trace of blood suddenly flashed in Yao Zhenyin's eyes, her voice was a little indifferent, and she said, "Yes, you did tell Li Yuanxiao that you can't hurt my life." But you also said that it is better to die in your hands than to let the prince die at the hands of outsiders. Why don't you miss any flesh and blood affection? ”

Yao Yongsheng just knelt there and kowtowed, and said: "It's me who is wrong, it's me who was carried away by utilitarianism for a while, please for the sake of the two of us being brothers and sisters, don't treat me like this, okay?" Leave me alone. ”

After Yao Zhenyin heard him say this, she didn't answer him a word, she was thinking about what to do with her brother, when suddenly Li Yuanxiao laughed and said, "Queen Mother, you really calculated a thousand tricks and miscalculated." Yes, your soldiers are indeed about to enter the palace, and Li Chengyu is indeed a rare general, I believe in his ability. But don't forget, the palace is still controlled by me, whoever I let live, whoever I let live, will live, and whoever I let die, will die. Hahahaha. At this point, his laughter became even sharper.

Hearing him say this, Yao Zhenyin was slightly stunned.
