Xiao Yu didn't continue, as his status in the world continued to rise, he knew more and more secrets, such as the death of Zhang Jiangling, the head of the Great Zheng Sect, the death of the Demon Sect Master, the death of the previous Sword Sect Master Xu Lin, etc., when Xiao Yu turned around and looked at the rebellion of the prince who had made the entire Great Zheng Temple bloody, it was inevitable to find many strange things. For example, what role does Mr. Fu play in this?

Xiao Yu has always hidden this matter in his heart, and he has not told anyone else, because while he doubted Mr. Fu, he also found that Mr. Fu seemed to have a very deep connection with the Taoist Sect. Xiao Yu was not afraid of the opponents of the Easy Realm, because behind him was the strongest sect in the cultivation world, and he had the largest number of Easy Realm masters. But when the opponent came from the Dao Sect, the Dao Sect was no longer Xiao Yu's help, so Xiao Yu had to act cautiously.

Qu Cang waved away the guards who were originally standing at the door, bowed slightly, stood a little back next to Xiao Yu, and said softly: "Lord Wang?"

Xiao Yu raised his hand, Qu Cang was silent, and bowed back and slowly retreated.

Xiao Yu shook it weakly, as if he wanted to grab the breeze between his fingers, but in the end he couldn't hold anything, and said softly: "I once asked Xiao Lie why he didn't dare to make a move, and he replied that there was Mr. Fu in the Eastern Capital City, and he was Mr. Fu who was the master of the Tianji Pavilion and the master of the Tianji List. Autumn leaves say you're a madman, and Lan Yu says he never understood what you want as a master, and you treat me like a pawn. ”

At this time, Xie Si had already walked behind Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu's right hand was pressed on the hilt of the broken sword that never left his waist, and the familiar feeling gave him the illusion of being one with the long sword in his hand, and said with a smile: "A gentleman should be a sword, and he only knew that it was one of the heirlooms of the Fang family after carrying it on his body for so many years, and it was stolen by my mother from my grandfather, so I made my grandfather say that the girl was outgoing many times." ”

He let go of the hilt of the sword in his hand and said softly: "That day, she said that I should go to my grandfather's house, saying that my grandfather was looking for me for something, and the Xiao family and the Fang family were only separated by an alley, and it didn't take a cup of tea to go back and forth, so I didn't think much about it at that time." ”

Xiao Yu walked into the East Lake Courtyard and said coldly, "I really should think about it now." ”

――

In the fourteenth year of Zhengming, winter, light snow.

The powerful Shoufu has been dead for four years, and now the cabinet is in charge of Fang Xiangye and Li Xiangye, among which Fang Xiangye, who holds the position of Shoufu, has just been crowned the crown prince and Taifu, which can be described as a glorious ancestor.

There are two long alleys in the eastern capital, there is a faint confrontation posture, an alley in the east of it, most of the houses live in the high-ranking nobles, the place where the Marquis and Earl of the Duke of Guogong are gathered, although the characters here are all in the super category, but except for a very few people, they are just embroidered pillows lying on the ancestral merit book, and the Xiao family of An Guogong, who has gone downhill in recent years, has become a very individual existence from the embroidered pillow because of a very brilliant junior.

As for the other alley, most of the guests in the house here are not authentic people from the Eastern Capital, but from outside the state capital to settle in the Eastern Capital, and most of them do not have titles, but everyone can wear vermilion, and even a few top-notch ones can wear that black official robe, and Fang Xiangye's Fang family is in this alley.

The brilliant younger generation of the Xiao family, with a single name and a strong character, was once an elegant and famous man who moved Lin Qingliu, but he did not take the imperial examination, but relied on his family relationship to enter the secret guard who was spurned by the world's scholars and served as the secret guard capital, and was regarded by several great Confucians in the world as self-willing to sink and heartbroken.

The Fang family has a daughter, and her single name is a Xuan character. Fang Xiangye is old and has a daughter, regarded as a pearl in the palm of his hand, and someone in the eastern capital once joked: "Marrying the daughter of the Fang family is better than the champion." "At that time, the young lady of the Fang family was even more expensive than some declining county lords.

A Lantern Festival made Xiao Lie and Fang Xuan meet and get acquainted. As for the later love, or even a private life, it is even more natural. Although the Xiao family has declined a lot now, it is not as beautiful as the ancestor Xiao Lin when he was alive, but he is a high-ranking family, and he is also a good match with the Fang family, and Xiao Lie himself is a famous young talent.

married the daughter of the Fang family, Xiao Lie, who was already faintly the pillar of the family, also took advantage of the east wind of his wife and family to inherit the title of Duke of Anguo. For a time, the new head of the Xiao family was in the limelight in the Eastern Capital.

In March of the following year, he and Fang Xuan gave birth to a son, named Xiao Yu, whose name is Mingguang.

――

In the twenty-ninth year of Zhengming, winter, heavy snowfall.

The powerful Shoufu has been dead for almost 20 years, and now the cabinet is still in charge of Fang Xiangye and Li Xiangye, among which Fang Xiangye, who held the position of Shoufu, was crowned the crown prince and prince, which can be described as extremely honorable, except for Zhang Xiangye, who was crowned the prince and the prince before his death, it is already the pinnacle of the ministers of this dynasty.

Xiao Lie, the son-in-law of the Fang family, has also achieved the high position of the Secret Guard Left Governor, and there is only one step left before the position of the Secret Guard Governor who is above 10,000 people under one person. And this year, he and Fang Xuan's son Xiao Yu, that is, the eldest son of the Xiao family, was fifteen years old.

At the end of this year, the imperial history of Zuodu heard about the incident, and wrote a letter to impeach Qian Fangping, a scholar who was then a member of the East Palace, listing his ten major crimes, saying that he had the heart of disobedience and the crime of bullying the king.

As a result, Qian Fangping, a member of the East Palace, was convicted and imprisoned, and was beheaded by Emperor Zheng. Subsequently, Emperor Zheng issued an edict to severely reprimand the crown prince, cut his authority to supervise the state, and made him think about it behind closed doors.

When Emperor Zheng went to Zhili Prefecture, the Eastern Capital was crazy that Emperor Zheng wanted to abolish the prince, and the prince Qin Li, who was trapped in the East Palace, was unwilling to be killed after all, and urgently ordered Lin Ruzhen, the right capital governor of the Son of Heaven's army, to lead the troops to Zhili Prefecture, and then ordered his East Palace to control the imperial city at six rates, and captured the Yamen of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses. The vigorous prince's rebellion case began.

The next thing, in the eyes of the people and ordinary officials in the eastern capital, and even the ordinary clan, it was like seeing flowers in the fog, and it was not true until the Son of Heaven's pro-army Zuodu Governor Qin Zheng suppressed Lin Ruzhen's rebellion, beheaded him, beheaded 20 of his henchmen, and personally led the troops to relieve the siege of Zhili, Emperor Zheng returned to the Eastern Capital under the escort of 200,000 Son of Heaven's pro-army, the prince was defeated, and the situation was completely clear.

Qin Li fled in a hurry and was finally defeated at the hands of Qin Zheng in the territory of Zhili Prefecture.

After this incident, Emperor Zheng was extremely angry and issued an edict to demote the crown prince Qin Li to a concubine, denouncing him as a vicious and violent man, and without a father, no loyalty, no benevolence and filial piety, no virtuous virtue, no difference from beasts. At the same time, he exiled the Governor of the Secret Guard to Lingnan for the crime of negligence and dereliction of duty, and made Zuodu Yushi the minister of the Imperial Mission, and strictly investigated the prince's party, so as to eliminate the evil.

As the crown prince and prince, Fang Xiangye bore the brunt of the attack, and was removed from all official positions as soon as possible and thrown into prison.

The prince's rebellion case was very widespread, and there were officials of more than three grades, a total of 16 people were killed, among which the Fang family was beheaded by all the doors, and none of them survived.

However, there are also people who have gone to the next level in the prince's rebellion case. is not the imperial history of the Zuodu, after he closed the case, he was casually accused by Emperor Zheng of an irrelevant crime, and was demoted to Qiongzhou, the southernmost part of the territory of Dazheng, as a political envoy, and he never returned to the Eastern Capital for the rest of his life. The real benefit was Xiao Lie, who was promoted from the Governor of the Dark Guard to the Governor of the Dark Guard, and married Princess Ling'an, the sister of Emperor Zheng, and became a veritable relative of the emperor. Qin Zheng, promoted from the Governor of the Left Capital of the Son of Heaven's pro-army to the Governor of the Eastern Capital, commanded 200,000 of the Son of Heaven's pro-army, and controlled the soldiers and horses of the five cities. It can be said that Emperor Zheng put his net worth and life in the hands of Qin Zheng, and the trust can be seen. Li Yan, the first assistant of the cabinet, Fang Xiangye, was beheaded all over the house, and he, the second assistant of the cabinet, took advantage of the situation to go to the next level and became the first person to be a civil official.

In Xiao Yu's memory, the snow in the winter of Zhengming's twenty-ninth year was blood-red.
