Chapter Eighty-Eight: Summoning the Second Emperor
The crown prince returned all the way back to the palace of Anguo, and went to meet Emperor An as soon as possible.
"Father, the son is back."
Emperor An put down the fold in his hand and asked with a smile, "I'm back, how is it?" Is Chu Jiangnan's performance eye-catching? ”
The prince silently organized the wording in his heart: "Father, in fact, the sons and daughters don't know how to describe Chu Jiangnan after watching it for a long time. ”
The prince's words made Emperor An interested, you must know that your eldest son has always been calm and now I don't know how to describe it, it seems that there are still some interesting things happening here.
"Describe what you saw today to me, I'm curious right now."
An Huang waited with blank eyes.
The prince restored the picture he saw today in his own words as much as possible, and Emperor An listened carefully, and unconsciously began to construct the picture at that time in his mind.
"Then according to what you say, this Chu Jiangnan was in the ring at that time, that is, after a few moves with others, he forced others to automatically give up the game and jump out of the ring?" An Huang asked a little uncertainly.
The prince actually nodded seriously: "Yes, I feel that they seem to be crushed by Chu Jiangnan's momentum, and they unconsciously begin to be afraid in their hearts." The child felt that he had the temperament of a leader, and when he first came to power, there were two people around him who formed a triangular battle formation with him. At that time, they were besieged by a group of other people, and the situation was actually quite critical, and this battle formation allowed the three of them to be back to back, so as not to expose their backs to the enemy. Moreover, at that time, it was Chu Jiangnan who directly faced the opponent, and the other two people could only be said to be auxiliary. ”
After listening to the prince's analysis, Emperor An nodded: "In this way, this Chu Jiangnan may have read the Book of War and the Art of War or something. Now I am even more curious about him, if he is really capable of leading our Anguo army, I hope he can take over the tiger talisman in the hands of the emperor. You must know that since my accession to the throne, your imperial uncle has often fought in the south and the north. Even at the critical juncture when your imperial sister is about to be born, your imperial uncle has to lead troops to suppress the rebellion. ”
Everyone actually saw King Wu'an's hard work over the years in their hearts, and everyone actually felt very sorry for him, and they had persuaded him many times. But according to King Wu'an's own words, he was still not at ease without a qualified and trustworthy person to take over his tiger talisman.
"The emperor is the most ruthless emperor. Since ancient times, how many people have killed each other in order to compete for this dragon throne. I don't want to see that. An Huang spread out the things he was most worried about and told his eldest son directly.
At the age of Emperor An, he has long lost the ambition to expand the territory. Now what Emperor An wants is the stability of the country, and these people in the family can live in peace.
The crown prince got up and laughed, and the prince's laughter made Emperor An's heart chuckle.
Could it be that this prince of his own really attaches so much importance to the throne, and he is bound to win?
"Father, father. Why do you have to talk so much to the emperor? You still don't know my brothers, which of your sons has this mind. This kind of thing may be common in other dynasties, but in our country, you can put your foolish heart in your stomach. Don't say anything about fratricidal cannibalism, who of them wants to be this emperor can say directly, I have no problem raising my hands at all. The prince looked at the old father in front of him with a smile and a smile.
An Huang opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
"Father, don't worry. The royal brothers would not have such thoughts. At that time, we were also discussing making Ling Ling an empress, but it was rejected. I, as a big brother, can't watch my father and you get tired alone, so I can only take on the responsibility. ”
Emperor An nodded: "Emperor, you go and call all your brothers to me, as well as Ling Ling." I'm going to teach you a good lesson today. ”
I don't know why my father suddenly said this, but the prince still went to call someone.
What the prince didn't know was that when he walked out of Emperor An's palace, Emperor An couldn't stop coughing, and his originally ruddy face turned pale like white paper for a while.
An Huang finally calmed down and sighed that the years are unforgiving.
In fact, my body knows that I have slept later than dogs and woken up earlier than chickens over the years, and I have long dragged my body down. In addition, some time ago, the death of the queen made Emperor An even more exhausted.
This time, he summoned his son and niece, and Emperor An also had the intention of explaining the future. There are things that need to be clearly stated on the table than to be kept in the heart and let the conspiracy breed.
An Lingling and Lu Liu had just sneaked back home, and as soon as they changed out of the men's clothes on their bodies, Lin Xiaozhu pushed the door in: "Wild girl, is it fun outside?" ”
was caught by his mother, An Lingling stuck out her tongue embarrassedly: "Queen Mother, you know everything." ”
"You stupid girl, where is this? This is the palace of the king of Wu'an, although your father led the army to the battle, how could he not leave a secret guard to protect our mother. I got the message as soon as you went out. Lin Xiaozhu pointed his finger at An Lingling's forehead.
An Lingling threw herself into Lin Xiaozhu's arms and coquettishly, Lin Xiaozhu really had no way to take his daughter: "You, if you want to go out in the future, you will go out generously." Don't sneak around, and remember to bring extra guards. ”
"Mother, I know. By the way, mother, you said that Dad secretly left guards? Where are they, how come I never saw them? An Lingling was very curious.
"They are all hidden in the shadows, and they will not be seen in front of people. This is your father's escort, his last killer move, his last secret weapon. Lin Xiaozhu looked up at the roof outside, and she knew that there must be hidden members of the night guarding them.
An Lingling followed her mother's gaze and looked up, there was nothing on the roof, but since her mother would look at it like this, it meant ......
An Lingling suddenly bowed to the roof: "Thank you!! ”
The members of the dark night hidden on the roof were frightened by An Lingling's sudden thanks, and almost revealed their figures.
You must know that you are just a soldier in the hands of King Wu'an, and you can even say that you are a servant. In a society with such a strict hierarchy of status, it is unthinkable to bow and thank them as subordinates.
Killing people and punishing hearts, how can the emperor not rely on his heart.
It was such an inexperienced move that warmed the hearts of the Night Tribesmen who were responsible for staying behind to protect them this time, and at the same time, they also recognized them as the future master in their hearts.
Seeing that his daughter in front of him actually knew how to thank others, Lin Xiaozhu also smiled.
She had to sigh that the child had grown up.
In the palace, Emperor An summoned the will of the second-generation members of the An family's lineage to reach the palace of King Wu'an, and An Lingling was actually in a completely overwhelmed situation when he received this will. Uncle Emperor, what's the matter, why did he make such a formal decree.
An Lingling couldn't guess what the emperor's uncle wanted to do.
"Mother, what do you mean by the Emperor's uncle's sudden will? What happened? ”
"Your emperor's uncle is also old, and his health has not been very good since your aunt died. You'd better hurry into the palace and have a look. Lin Xiaozhu asked An Lingling to hurry up.
After An Lingling left, she shouted, "Someone." ”
The night guards hidden in the darkness appeared two people, and these two knelt on one knee: "Master, when did you give orders?" ”
"You immediately send someone to send a message to the prince, saying that the emperor's brother is not as good as before, this time summon Lingling and they may have something bad to do, and ask the prince if he can return to the city." Lin Xiaozhu quickly said what he wanted them to bring.
The dark night clenched his fist and disappeared directly.
They knew that this news was urgent, and they did not dare to delay.
An Lingling rode a fast horse to the palace, attracting sideways glances from passers-by along the way.
You must know that An Lingling sits in a carriage every time she enters and exits the palace, and this time she is too anxious to take care of her image, so she gallops directly on the street.
The people were also stunned, and it was the first time they had seen a young woman galloping on the street.
However, what An Lingling didn't expect at this time was that Chu Jiangnan happened to come out alone to relax, and he just happened to see An Lingling galloping on a horse. However, at this time, An Lingling's dress is very different from the dress when there is an inn.
Chu Jiangnan also glanced at it in a hurry, feeling that the figure of this woman riding a horse and galloping was similar to the Ling Ling that he dreamed of finding every day.
Immediately, An Lingling ran wildly on horseback, and Chu Jiangnan chased after the horse.
Chu Jiangnan shouted while chasing: "Ling Ling, Ling Ling, is it you?" ”
If An Lingling, who usually rides a horse, would probably have heard it, but today is really unfortunate, An Lingling's heart is on his emperor's uncle, and he didn't hear the shouts of Chu Jiangnan behind him at all.
The people who didn't know why watched one running wildly and the other chasing wildly, and they talked about it one after another.
However, when An Lingling parked his horse outside the palace and rushed directly into the palace, everyone else shut up.
Chu Jiangnan watched the person he was chasing enter the palace, and immediately wanted to go in. However, he was directly stopped by the guard guarding the door: "Stop, bold, who are you and why did you trespass on the palace." ”
Chu Jiangnan looked at the direction An Lingling left, and at this time, An Lingling had long since disappeared.
"Two big brothers, can I ask you who the woman who went in just now is?"
"Get me out of here. The lord of Shengping is also something you can inquire about. The guard was not merciful at all, but what he didn't know was that he accidentally exposed An Lingling's identity.
