Chapter 55

In the study of the Lingfu

The man sitting on the high seat played with the teacup in his slender hands, and his face was extremely gloomy.

Liang Shan stood under the stage and replied with a calm face, "I followed the footprints and looked for a road, but there was no trace on a forest path, and that road was the road for merchants to deliver goods to Chihua, and it was difficult to act with many people." “

"It's very likely that I've already hidden in the crowd and blended into Chihua." He Lingjun shifted his position, but his face still did not ease.

"I've been there to see, and none of them are left alive, it seems that someone went to save them, a few of them with high martial arts skills were killed by another person, and the rest were torn apart by Dao Bo." Liang Shan reported on 1510

He Lingjun sneered: "This is venting the anger of being imprisoned." “

"Your Highness, what should I do next?" Liang Shan continued to ask

"The murder weapon that has been raised for so long was actually cut off by Chihua's people, and now the situation in Chihua is complicated, and it is not good for us to fall into anyone's hands." He Lingjun stood up and looked out the window, his tone a little regretful and melancholy.

"Keep checking, even if you can't get it back, you have to know who the knife is with."

Liang Shan bowed his hand and retreated.

"By the way," He Lingjun called Liang Shan, "How is the crown princess over there?" “

"The old lady who was guarded by the crown princess woke up."

He Lingjun hummed lightly, and continued, "How many people have stopped the queen's mother?" ”

"I stopped a total of three waves, I'm afraid that if I stop it again, the queen may have opinions."

He Lingjun tilted his head and adjusted his cuffs, "Continue to stop, I will explain to the queen." ”

"Yes"

He Lingjun stretched out his hand and raised his sleeves, fiddling with Xiao Zhi by the window.

Inside the Council Chamber of Chihua Palace

Many ministers knelt in several rows, and on the golden platform stood resolutely a man in gold armor, the man's face was full of wrinkles, his sideburns were slightly white, but his face was full of the air of the rising sun, but at this moment, his black eyes reflected directly on everyone in the audience, full of gloom.

"What are you guys doing here!"

Liang Dong, who was lying at the front, moved out first, and said sadly, "Your Majesty, please think twice!" The advance army of the Chihua Former War Army has already fought with Tianyu's side! His Majesty also knew the news that the advance army was almost wiped out, and Tianyu was full of well-trained and martial arts soldiers! “

Everyone began to echo, and Emperor Yan on the stage turned pale, knocking over all the folds on the desk to the ground.

"What a joke, Tianyu pressed me Chihua to fight, you actually want me to watch here! How could I, Chihua, be afraid of him Tianyu! “

"Your Majesty!" Zhan Ye Hua stepped out sideways, saluted respectfully, and his voice was loud and powerful

"Your Majesty must not go on an expedition, Your Majesty is the heart of Chihua, and the people know it."

Emperor Yan turned his back and held the desk with both hands

"I have already made up my mind, you don't need to persuade you, besides, the crown prince has been established."

"Your Majesty!" Everyone bowed and suffered, and did not dare to say a word, so they could only lean their heads on the ground as much as possible.

Emperor Yan ignored it, just took the sword handed over by the guards beside him, and strode out, but slowly stopped as he approached the door.

I saw that there were soldiers standing outside the hall, but it was not Emperor Yan who wanted to lead the army to conquer the land, Emperor Yan was shocked by the size of the army first, and immediately noticed the person who led the army, standing in front of the Haoran army was none other than Yin Qu and Su Yi, and sure enough, there were war field troops in these armies, and some were soldiers led by Su Yi.

Emperor Yan's face was displeased, he had some bad premonitions in his heart, and his voice was loud with some anger, "What are you doing here!" ”

After a while, Yin Qu removed the sword pinned to his side, handed it to Song Lin behind him, solemnly took a few steps forward, and saluted Emperor Yan, kneeling steadily on the green stone ground with one knee on his left knee, his right fist clenched on the ground, and the shadow of the broken hair on his forehead fell on his resolute eyes.

Subsequently, starting from Su Yi and Songlin, all the troops marched towards Emperor Yan, and the sound of the soldiers kneeling on the ground was sonorous and powerful, and the sound shuttled back and forth between the sky and the earth, shaking the hearts of everyone present. All the officials in the hall, no matter how big or small, knelt down towards Emperor Yan at the door.

Emperor Yan looked at the soldiers in front of him and turned his head to take the civil and military officials behind him into his eyes, and couldn't help laughing after thinking for a long time, this laughter was full of helplessness, and he could only shout weakly, "What do you want me to do!" ”

There seemed to be some movement in the silent army, and Emperor Yan looked at it and shouted, "Resignation?" …… Prince"

In the eyes of everyone, Yan Ci walked quickly and steadily to the front of the dragon steps, did not step forward, just stood and looked up at Emperor Yan on the stage, took out a roll of cloth scrolls embroidered with gold thread from behind him, held it with both hands, lifted it high and knelt down to salute.

"Father, this golden cloth shaft not only represents the wishes of everyone present, but also represents the voice of the people up and down Chihua!"

Emperor Yan's face was serious, and he stopped the accompanying eunuch who was about to go down to get the gold cloth scroll, "I'll go by myself"

Emperor Yan walked down the dragon steps, took the golden cloth scroll in Yan Ci's hand with his big hand full of ravines, his hands trembled a little, and after pulling it away a little, he still paused uneasily, his eyes were uneasy, and finally he was decisively pulled away.

The golden thread looked more dazzling than usual under the scorching sun in the sky, and this dazzling golden light was reflected in Emperor Yan's face and pierced in Emperor Yan's eyes.

At the moment when Emperor Yan put down the cloth scroll, after Yan Ci made a big salute to Emperor Yan, he shouted loudly, "Chihua Ancient Order, if the emperor makes a wrong choice, the prince has the right to unite with civil and military officials to admonish!" “

Emperor Yan grabbed the cloth shaft tightly and looked at Yan Ci indifferently, "You are afraid that it is not just a simple admonition"

"Your Majesty is stubborn, and you are sad about the attack on Haisheng, for the sake of Your Majesty's dragon body, please move to another palace to recuperate with peace of mind."

Emperor Yan sneered and continued the topic: "Then if I am not there, who can be the king of this country?" “

Yan Ci did not speak, but a voice came from the hall

"When Your Majesty is cultivating, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should assume the position of acting monarch and preside over the affairs of Chihua."

Emperor Yan was puzzled to find the source of the sound, and finally found the source of the sound in the first row of the hall, and after recognizing the person, he laughed loudly

"It turned out to be Prime Minister Xiao Cheng, this is why you are on the pole to urge me to establish a prince, but it is because only the prince can become the governor of the army on behalf of the country!" Emperor Yan's tone intensified, his eyes were full of anger and he looked at Xiao Heng, and then turned his head to look at Yan Ci

Everyone was silent, just letting Emperor Yan spread his anger, knowing that this anger was extinguished

"What are you waiting for, the royal drive to Besung Palace should be ready."

Emperor Yan's anger did not appear clearly on his face, but he was full of anger in his words.

Su Yi stepped forward and respectfully saluted Emperor Yan, "Your Majesty, please come here." ”

Emperor Yan exhaled, looked at Su Yi meaningfully, and strode in the direction that Su Yi pointed.

--

In just half a month, the situation in Chihua has undergone earth-shaking changes, the army to the border of Chihua Tianyu was recalled, and the prince's seizure of power spread throughout the three kingdoms within half a month.

In this way, an imminent war has been wiped out without a trace in the washing of time.

In the main hall of Chihua Palace, a secondary seat was placed next to the main seat, and the man who was sitting on the secondary seat was rubbing his eyebrows with his fingers, and his handsome side face gradually revealed his displeasure with the content of the report of the people in the audience.

The man in the audience spoke backward and only spoke after he straightened up

"Although the cities are all small cities, this matter cannot be ignored" Yan Ci pondered for a while, sighed, "Leave this matter to Prime Minister Xiao Cheng, let Prime Minister Xiao Cheng come to see me tomorrow." ”

Yan Ci leaned back in his seat, and his tone was a little heavy, "How is it in the other courtyard?" “

"Your Majesty has been in a good mood recently, and this morning he asked his eunuchs to cultivate a piece of land in the backyard of the other courtyard to grow some side vegetables...... It feels like. “

The eunuch in the audience was halfway through speaking, and immediately stopped talking when he realized that something was not right.

"Like what?" Yan Qi leaned forward

"It's like...... You have to live in another house. ”

Yan Ci lowered his head and did not continue the topic, "Go to General Yin's mansion and let General Yin enter the palace, and say that there is something serious to discuss, and there is something that cannot wait." “

"Yes"

Inside the Ruji Restaurant in the Quality City

In a room on the top floor, a string of abacus sounds came out continuously, accompanied by intermittent laughter, sometimes laughing and sometimes whispering.

With the experience of Xuanpu, Wu Chi skillfully made calculations with his right hand, and then wrote down the accounts. The curvature of the corners of the mouth has not fallen.

Liu Li sat on the side and flipped through the accounts, looked up at Wu Chi, and rejoiced in his heart

"Seeing that the princess is so happy, it seems that this month's accounts are quite impressive."

Wu Chi was very interested in tidying up the accounts one by one, "Isn't it, since the old lady accepted the accounts, our business has improved more than a little bit." ”

"But it's strange to say, that old lady is not so easy to let go." Liu Li walked towards the back room with the account

Wuchi lowered his face and whispered to himself, "This is the old lady who is relieved, it's just that the person behind the old lady has other things to worry about." “

Yin Qu and Yan Ci's appearance obviously deviated from the plan of the two in the Lingfu, Wu Chi rarely saw He Lingjun recently, but he often saw the subordinates in the Ling Mansion, and he would come to the Confucian Restaurant to pick him up every day, as usual, Wu Chi would go down every day when the time came to tell them that he would not go back, and he had already lived in the Confucian Restaurant.

In the back room, there was the sound of Liu Li sorting out the accounts, and there were some sounds of turning pages

"Princess, the hour is almost up, and the person from the Lingfu should come."

Wu Chi tidied up his collapsed dress and walked downstairs quickly.

Before I could go down to the lobby, I heard the movement below, and this time it seemed to be different from the previous one.

Wu Chi almost ran into the hurried catkins at the bend of the stairs

"What's wrong with the lobby, why are you in such a hurry?" Wu Chi was a little uneasy and took Liu Wu's hand
