Arbalests, firebolts, what a powerful bandit!

When the Empress Dowager heard King Liao talk about the thrilling attack, her eyes gradually became gloomy.

This case, why does it still need to be examined, and it is clear who is behind the mastermind!

Qin Huaiyu? If he had such ability, he would not be in such a situation now.

The Son of Heaven has always regarded the dying instructions of the first emperor and the painstaking persuasion of her grandmother as irritable ears.

Of course, the "bandit leader" who commanded the assassination operation was also escorted back to Beijing, and the empress dowager once again secretly detained people, temporarily detained without trial, but earlier heard the report of the king, and the king of Liao questioned him in Jining, but although the crime was caught, it was a steel mouth and iron teeth, and his mouth was tightly closed, but it didn't matter, as long as the empress dowager had the heart to investigate, even if this person didn't say anything, even if he died at this time, he could also detect his identity.

It could not be the actions of the Chen and Qin families, but only the personal guards of the Son of Heaven, and it was an assassination operation that was not visible, and even so, there were traces.

The guards, always registered, go in and out of the court, it is better than the dead man who can't find the mastermind behind it.

After listening to the narrative of King Liao, the Empress Dowager diverted the topic: "Hachiro has been in the domain for the past two years, how has he gained?" ”

At the mention of this, the king of Liao became more and more guilty.

"I really have high hopes for my father!"

Liao is in the bitter cold, the people's livelihood is mostly hard, the king of Liao sees it in his eyes, and he also wants to eradicate the hidden government to improve the people's livelihood, and do some practical things, so as not to vain the title of the vassal king, how to know many things, it is easy to come up with the charter, but it is difficult to actually promote, not to mention that he can not win the hearts of the people, and there are Qin henchmen who have repeatedly made it difficult, and in the past two years, there is no work, and slowly it is still difficult, so he has to be idle, in order to end up at ease.

After saying that, King Liao's cheeks became shrimp and crabs cooked in boiling water, and the white was red.

The Empress Dowager also felt helpless, the first emperor always had reservations about the succession of Shiro, in fact, he preferred Hachiro to be benevolent, but at the moment Dalong is far from the point of keeping it, the emperor is only benevolent and generous, and many arrangements are intended to be Hachiro to go to the domain to practice, Xu can change and advance, and he will not lose his courage in addition to benevolence.

However, seeing Hachiro like this......

I clearly feel that there are many taboos and suppresses in the saint, but I have no choice but to improve, in the end, I am young, and it is still excusable, but I know that there are many dangers and difficulties, and I don't know how to protect myself when I return to Beijing, so I have to fight with the prince, so I have to bring enough guards, just to be light, and I don't want to be too public, but with dozens of guards!

If it weren't for Yu Feng's cautious deployment this time, the King of Liao would only be afraid that he would have died and returned.

Self-protection is still insufficient, should you really have the ability of an emperor?

If a feudal city is not well governed, how will it balance many powerful ministers and civil and military officials in the future.

The Empress Dowager is very worried, although the wife of the Son of Heaven is capable, but she has ill intentions, and the mother of the King of Liao is not greedy for power, but the ability of the Hu family of Concubine An is not obvious, even if she intends to support, there are no talented children and nephews, let alone powerful in-laws, and it is difficult to become a Balang to help.

Maybe one day when she is alive, Su and Chu will do their best to assist, but she is old after all, and maybe she is on the verge of the limit.

If Hachiro can't be decisive, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not be bewitched by the treacherous people in the DPRK and China, once he is separated from Su and Chu, he will have the ability to resist the power of the two governments?!

Obviously, there is no such ability today, let alone Hachiro.

The Empress Dowager was troubled, but she didn't realize that she had moved the heart of abolishing the emperor.

She tried again: "This time you will return to Beijing, in fact, the key is important, it is your family affairs, in a blink of an eye, the first emperor's filial piety period has passed...... "It will be almost three years."

King Liao's face turned redder again, not that he was ashamed, but that he was a little shy.

"What's the matter, Hachiro has someone he likes?" The Empress Dowager just asked casually.

I don't know how to say: "Imperial grandmother, grandson...... She is the daughter of her third uncle, gentle and kind, and knowledgeable in the four arts. ”

The Empress Dowager was completely speechless, originally she planned to point out her niece Yan family's concubine to the eighth child, with the Yan family's wife, she would not be too weak in the future.

But Hachiro is clearly emotionally affectionate to his maternal cousin, and if she mentions it again as a grandmother, isn't it difficult for a strong man?

It's not a suitable candidate, maybe it's also Hachiro's creation.

The Empress Dowager sighed: "The mourning family understands, after a while, I will let your mother edict her niece to enter the palace to take a look." ”

When the King of Liao went to the domain, Concubine Li'an could also follow, but the Son of Heaven was very taboo, of course, he wanted to leave the biological mother of the King of Liao in the palace as a hostage, and now he also lives in the side hall of Shoukang Palace.

The King of Liao was relieved, and a relaxed smile immediately appeared on his face, and he thanked him happily.

Seeing the Empress Dowager, she couldn't help but shake her head.

"This time, the grandson was able to return to the capital safely, thanks to the timely rescue of the king of Chu, but the grandson heard that the king of Chu was seriously ill on the way......" After thanking him, the king of Liao became worried again.

Sure enough, it is benevolent and righteous, the first emperor is not mistaken, and the empress dowager is regretful and comforted: "Yuanyang's illness is indeed critical, fortunately God and Buddha are blessed, but now he has recovered and is no longer guilty." ”

"My grandson, please be allowed to visit, and I also thanked the King of Chu for saving his life in person."

The Empress Dowager nodded secretly, Hachiro knew very well about advance and retreat, and knew that if he rashly interacted with the King of Chu at this time, it would be more jealous of the Son of Heaven.

"It's time to thank you."

After saying this, the Empress Dowager asked the King of Liao to go to Shoukang Palace to see the Queen Mother and her biological mother, and asked if the Son of Heaven had been gifted to the King of Liao to enter the palace but there was no response, and the Empress Dowager sneered.

Of course, the Son of Heaven had already received the letter, but he ignored it, and even did not pass on the King of Liao to see him, so he simply acquiesced, thinking that he could do nothing about him?

He is the emperor, the king of Liao is a sibling, but he is also a courtier, the king wants the minister to die, the minister has to die, the attitude of the Son of Heaven is to show that he has a "clear conscience"! There is no fear of accountability, and naturally there is no need for any explanation.

It's a real disappointment.

The Empress Dowager simply did not ask the Son of Heaven to come to the throne to question, and made him think that the King of Liao did not dare to say anything, Ci'an Palace did not respond, and the King of Liao could stay in Beijing for a while.

really let the king of Liao go to the domain, the empress dowager was very worried, afraid that this grandson would die.

After pondering for a while, he asked Gonggong Zhan again: "You mentioned some time ago that the daughters of the Yang family who were guilty of not serving in the court seem to have a lot of trouble for Qin Ziruo?" ”

"Qi Yu Niangniang, this is indeed the case, according to the ears and eyes of the court, the Yang family seems to be sure that the Qin family is related to the old case, and the relationship is related to framing the Yang family, and there is a lot of resentment between the words, and because the Qin family has no basis in the service court, the Yang family has many people, many bullying, and the Qin family has been beaten several times, and now, ...... There are bruises all over the body, but just half a month ago, there was an eunuch who suddenly took care of the Qin family, and the villain inquired, this eunuch's name is Zhao Gui, who was originally waiting in the palace of Concubine Yang De, and had received a lot of favors from Concubine Yang. ”

Of course, the Empress Dowager would not pay attention to Qin Ziruo's situation, and only frowned slightly: "In this way, Zhao Gui got Yang Siniang's intention and took the initiative to take care of the Qin family." ”

Father-in-law Zhan bent over: "Yes, the villain guesses that the Yang family should be thinking about rehabilitating his family, and if he wants to set the Qin family's words, he may even want to find out some real evidence, but the Yang family also underestimated the Qin family too much, the Qin family is cunning and not easy to be fooled." ”

The Empress Dowager slowly rolled the corners of her lips: "No matter how cautious you are, you are in a state of fire and water, and you will gradually despair with a lot of bullying, as long as you give her a glimmer of light, it is difficult to guarantee that she will not be desperate, but Yang Siniang does not have the ability to give the Qin family the dawn." ”

He pondered for a while: "Still keep an eye on Yang and Qin's second daughter, as long as you don't make trouble, don't pay attention to how Yang Siniang bullies...... Contact Zhao Gui again, if this person is just righteous, he wants to repay Concubine Yang's kindness back then, and he has no other greed, so he arranged carefully, and quietly brought him to Ci'an Palace, so that the mourning family could see him. ”

This is an arrangement in Ci'an Palace, and with the arrival of King Liao in Shoukang Palace, there is a situation that is not expected by the Empress Dowager.

The Queen Mother held the shelf, only received the kowtow of the King of Liao, and sent people away - she really did not have a good impression of the King of Liao, although she did not know that the assassination of the Son of Heaven was unsuccessful, at this time she also knew that the King of Liao may be the "spare" prince instructed by the first emperor before the collapse, and it is really threatening the dragon chair of the Son of Heaven, and the Queen Mother cannot show a loving appearance at all.

Therefore, the king of Liao soon reunited with his mother, Concubine An.

Again, I said that it was thrilling on the way.

Concubine An was shocked, her eyes were red, but she couldn't tell whether she was sad or angry, and she gritted her teeth for a long time before she said: "I still don't want to let you go." ”

"The mother concubine is at ease, and the son will be cautious in the future." The King of Liao sighed lightly, he didn't know the jealousy of the Son of Heaven against him, he thought that quietly returning to Beijing might make the Son of Heaven suspicious, so he simply came back with a grand guard of honor, first, to dispel the taboo, and secondly, he also thought that he would not be ambushed in this way, in the end he was the prince, the Son of Heaven's siblings, if he was still attacked by someone while fighting, it was really obvious.

Where did you think that the Son of Heaven's jealousy of him had reached the point of not getting rid of it, and he no longer cared about the surface at all.

He also said that the marriage was decided.

Concubine An became more and more surprised: "When will you ...... with Qi Niang" In her opinion, her son and several maiden nieces only have brother and sister affection, and they stop at the number of courtesies, how can there be half a "love" of children's private feelings.

"My son escaped death this time, and he also vaguely understood something, since the Holy One has ascended the throne, why is he so jealous of me, and even does not hesitate to use his own army to assassinate his son? Furthermore, since the first emperor had left a will in advance for his grandmother to supervise the government, why didn't he leave an edict for succession? At present, the Holy Shang and the Su and Chu prefectures are even more incompatible...... Duke Wei Guo and King Chu are both trusted ministers of the first emperor, and they should assist the successor monarch! ”

Concubine An raised her eyebrows: "Hachiro is suspicious ......"

"Grandmother is afraid that she only has the right to supervise the government." The king of Liao did not say it explicitly, but said: "The grandmother obviously has a desire for her son's marriage, and it should be the daughter of the Yan family." ”

"So !!" Concubine An couldn't help but tighten her clothes.

Maybe the Empress Dowager will abolish the king, then, this is, to let the son ...... Maybe the first emperor had a will?

"Mother, my son is incompetent, especially in the past two years, I have experienced it in the domain, it is really ...... It is difficult to take on a heavy responsibility when I ask myself, but I am afraid that I will mislead the country and the people in the future, and I will have no shame to explain to my father and ancestors, not that my son will not fight, but it is really ...... can't fight, but it will affect his life, his mother and his grandfather's family. The King of Liao said in a deep voice: "Son, just seek self-peace, if possible in the future, assist the king, compile and revise the manuscript of the scriptures and history, supplemented by Wenzhi, is the ambition and ability of the son." ”

The King of Liao has been fond of writing epics since he was a child, he has no heart to compete for the prince, and the first emperor did not train him in the direction of the emperor, but he feels that since this son is quite talented, and he knows how to make progress, he will play his strengths in the "specific" field in the future, and he can also be regarded as assisting the emperor and the emperor, after all, the military system is to be reformed, the national strength needs to be enhanced, and the education of the classics can not be absurd.

But the first emperor's favorite candidate suddenly left the country, and there was no suitable successor for a while, so he paid attention to the king of Liao.

But the temperament of the King of Liao has been cultivated, how can it be subverted and changed in a short period of time in three years and five years?

Grinding gravel is a way to "build", but it depends on luck, most of them, may not be able to pass grinding, not only can not become a talent, but too much.

The King of Liao is not an ignorant person, but he is indeed not tenacious enough, and he has a weak and powerful temperament since he was a child, how can he turn into a decisive and ruthless person for a while?

Concubine An was stunned for a while, and then sighed: "The mother concubine never thinks about anything else, she just wants my son to be safe and happy, but in this situation, can the Holy One tolerate you?" ”

"It's bound to be unbearable." The King of Liao raised his eyebrows: "But in my opinion, I'm afraid that more people can't tolerate the saint, and my son, I should be honest with those who can tolerate me." ”
