Chapter 342: The Emperor's Decision

The leader of the dark department, who is also the emperor's secret guard, is now standing in front of the emperor.

The words of the second prince and the Marquis of Dingyuan can be said to have completely fallen into the ears of His Majesty the Emperor word for word.

The dark guard felt that he could repeatedly find the loopholes in the words of the second prince, and in the ears of His Majesty the Emperor, this would simply leak into a sieve.

The emperor's face was completely indistinguishable.

His gaze turned to the depths of the dungeon, but all he could see was a dark, deep hallway. But the emperor seemed to see his own stupid and vicious son.

The five colors are like cakes, the five colors are like jade cakes, and the five colors are like cloud cakes...... None of these three is properly called.

Even the emperor himself almost remembered the wrong name of the pastry after Su Zhaoning's words. Until his son's voice rang out.

Five-color wishful cake! It turned out to be really a five-color wishful cake. I remember not wrong at all.

The Emperor reached out and picked up one of the plates of peanuts that the jailer had placed on the table. He rubbed the red skin off the peanut and kneaded it in half.

Footsteps finally sounded again. It's just that the voice is not getting closer and closer, but going farther and farther.

It seems that the jailer is out.

The second prince was a little sweaty on his forehead, and he carefully recalled every sentence he said, trying to comfort himself that there were no loopholes in these words.

Su Zhaoning felt the gaze of the fourth prince, but she didn't look back.

It has come to this time that none of them can go wrong. Because of the wrong step, you are not even the only one who dies.

In the imperial study, the emperor was personally drafting the holy decree.

The second son of the emperor was brutal and immoral, murdered his brother, was demoted to a concubine, and confiscated 3,000 troops. The fourth son of the emperor, deceived the superiors and subordinates, and committed murder, and was confined to the palace of the four princes from now on, and he was not allowed to come out unless he was edicted.

The last stroke fell, and the emperor took the holy decree in his hand and looked at it again and again.

He finally made up his mind and shouted, "Someone! ”

Although the matter to be investigated was finally revealed and the truth was revealed, the emperor was not happy at all. His depressed mood has been there since he saw the fifth prince fall to the ground.

The fifth son of the emperor. The second son of the emperor.

This bastard! The emperor couldn't help but drop his book. As soon as he thought of the second prince's answer to Su Zhaoning's words, he was furious!

When it comes to five-color Ruyi cakes, he can barely deceive himself, after all, pastries are usually given a nice name. Ruyi is obvious, such as jade and ruyun, which are good-sounding.

But what about almond flour? The imperial doctor has found out that in this five-color Ruyi cake, each of them is mixed with almond flour that the five princes can't eat.

Almond flour may be a delicacy to others, but to his little five, it is an enema poison.

In the emperor's ear, he kept recalling the words of the second prince: "I didn't instruct people to add things that the five emperor's younger brothers can't eat to the five-colored ruyi cake." ”

"I didn't instruct people to add things that the five emperor brothers couldn't eat to the five-colored ruyi cake."

Idiot! If you didn't add it, how do you know that there is something in this pastry that your five emperor brothers can't eat? From beginning to end, the Su clan never said the true cause of death of your fifth emperor brother.

Fratricidal to this extent, the emperor really felt a chill.

He pressed his forehead and mentally counted all the sons he had left on his knees. Just when the emperor was judging the good or bad of the princes one by one in his heart, an urgent report came from outside the door.

The border emergency report is naturally an excerpt that the emperor is unwilling to delay for a moment and wants to see it immediately.

When he opened the fold and saw the good news written by Chen Tianyang, the emperor couldn't help but exhale three times in a row, "Okay!" Good! Good! ”

is also a son, why is there such a big gap between his son and other people's sons!

The emperor felt that he was a little comforted that this Chen Tianyang was also his own half-son. It's still his child's luck after all.

His gaze moved down impatiently.

I saw the last line, and the handwriting was very familiar - it was the third prince who added a paragraph at the back.

"Nanyu priest and Rongguo general Huo Wei were all beheaded by General Chen, and the Nanyu people sought revenge that night and lured General Chen out of the mansion as a common man. Taking advantage of his unpreparedness, the sword did not enter his body. General Chen died. ”

The four words "General Chen is dead" were so heavily pressed that the folds in the emperor's hands fell to the ground.

He had a mind about Chen Tianyang and then got rid of it. But after the other party had the identity of a colt, the emperor temporarily eliminated this idea.

After all, now the border is chaotic, the Rongren are eyeing the tiger, Nanyu is ready to move, and Zangxi has not yet completely surrendered, all of which are inseparable from the word "war".

Without Chen Tianyang's defense of the country, where will it go?

The emperor knew that his own thinking was very unwise. But at this moment, he couldn't control himself from thinking like this at all.

In the past five years, from Chen Tianyang's first battle to this last battle, all of them have been invincible and all of them have won.

This kind of victory rate has never been seen in the generalissimo Nanding Xinjiang thirty years ago.

It can be said that Chen Tianyang is a veritable god of war who defends the country, the guardian of the guards, and the well-deserved number one general under his emperor.

But this star fell so early!

What the hell is going on?

The Emperor picked it up again and looked at it again.

Connecting the content of Chen Tianyang and the three princes, the key is that the emperor has understood it thoroughly.

As the so-called success is also Xiao He, defeat is also Xiao He, for Chen Tianyang, the people are also the people.

In the battle of Jingmen Pass, the Rong people came to attack five years ago, and what kind of powerful counterattack was encountered by the means of attacking the city with cloud ladders, and what heavy losses the Rong people had.

Five years later, in the same place, the two sides are in completely opposite positions, but Rongren is still suffering heavy losses.

Among them, there is the credit of Chen Tianyang, and the credit of the people. Without the cooperation of the common people, it would be impossible for Chen Tianyang to capture Jingzhou City so quickly, and it would be impossible for him to exchange his own smallest loss for the opponent's greatest loss.

Under such circumstances, if the people have something, Chen Tianyang cannot sit idly by. Therefore, the Nanyu people designed Chen Tianyang as a common person, and the winning rate was indeed doubled. In addition, Chen Tianyang has been tired for many days, or he may not be able to do it well.

Thinking about these things clearly, the anger and disappointment in the emperor's heart were not so much.

After he saw clearly that Chen Tianyang's people had died and the people died, the pity for Chen Tianyang in his heart also decreased a lot.

The emperor doesn't want to admit a fact in his heart - this kind of popular will, he, the emperor, may not have it!

In this case, Chen Tianyang really can't stay!

It's just that if Chen Tianyang doesn't stay, the others will have to take the position of hussar general. The Emperor looked at the Urgent Bulletin for the third time.

After reading the excerpt, he called the great eunuch in.

This first order was not to summon people to discuss Chen Tianyang's burial specifications, nor did he order the promotion of a new hussar general.

The Emperor commanded: "Bring back the previous decree to me." ”

Chen Tianyang is already a dead man, no matter how much he rewards him, it is only false. This time, the soldiers who made meritorious contributions in Jingzhou City must be rewarded, and his three emperors must also be rewarded.

The emperor felt that since his sons had grown up, it would not be good to let one of them take the lead.

The third prince is about to be crowned, and the second prince and the fourth prince are not suitable for such a heavy punishment.

The Emperor made up his mind and walked towards the Empress's Palace.

In front of the queen, the sixth princess was sitting at this time.

The sixth princess tapped the cup with the handle of the whip while talking to the queen: "Queen Mother, we haven't held a banquet in the palace for a long time, when will you personally gather our brothers and sisters to play together?" ”

"When will the Third Emperor Brother come back? Also, the second and fourth emperor brothers don't know where to go, and they haven't come to play with me recently. The sixth princess complained.

The queen stretched out her hand to ask the palace maid to clean her hands, and then personally knocked walnuts for the sixth princess: "Now at this juncture, it is not suitable for holding a banquet." If you want to do it, the emperor, the next time you mention it to your father, the queen mother can't say such things. ”

"What can't the queen say?" The Emperor just stepped in, and he asked with a smile.

The sixth princess greeted her, grabbed the emperor's sleeve, and said coquettishly: "Father, the emperor wants to hold a banquet." It's been so boring lately. ”

The emperor nodded and replied: "If the emperor wants to do it, then directly order someone to set up a banquet." Anyway, your third emperor brother is coming back soon. ”

"The Third Emperor Brother is coming back?" The sixth princess said excitedly. She was full of curiosity and asked the emperor: "Father, did we beat Ronggou and Nanyu Dog to the ground?" ”

"Rong dog, Nanyu dog?" The emperor couldn't help but frown when he heard the vulgar words in the words of the sixth princess.

The sixth princess found out about this action, she directly stretched out her hand, forcibly smoothed the knot on the emperor's forehead, and said, "The emperor knows that it is not appropriate to say this. But Rong Dog backtracked, and the emperor felt that they really didn't deserve to be called people. ”

The emperor reluctantly accepted this explanation, he looked at the sixth princess and said, "Don't talk like this in the future." What Nanyu dog, it's too ugly. ”

"In this case, even if your imperial aunt hears it, she will educate you." The emperor knew that his daughter liked to run to the mansion of the eldest princess of Chaoyang. He simply used the eldest princess of Chaoyang to press the other party.

Sure enough, the sixth princess stopped talking. She pouted and sat on the sidelines, concentrating on tapping the cups with the handle of her whip.

The queen spoke first: "Your Majesty seems to be a little thin recently, you still have to pay attention to your body." ”

The Emperor replied, "The Empress is still sympathetic to me, and I can see at a glance that I have lost weight recently." ”

Listening to the "affectionate" conversation of the emperor and queen, the sixth princess secretly rolled her eyes. If it weren't for knowing the battlefield, she wouldn't want to stay here.

I heard the queen say again: "This time I won a big victory, and Your Majesty can finally sleep peacefully." ”

When the sixth princess heard the emperor, she asked the queen again: "How does the queen know that she has won this time?" ”

The sixth princess secretly rolled her eyes again, can you not know this? The joy in the corners of your eyes and eyebrows is overflowing.

To the delight of the sixth princess, the emperor quickly moved on to important topics.
