Chapter 13: The Emperor calculates, and the white dragon is born
"The assassin must be a supreme master, he was able to sneak into the palace, assassinate the second prince, and finally escaped, His Majesty was furious, and the whole city searched for the assassin."
Chen Li said with emotion that he didn't have a good impression of the second prince, but he didn't dislike it, but he was just amazed by the strength of the martial arts master.
Jiang Changsheng frowned, isn't there a master of the Tongtian Realm in the palace, how can he let the assassin succeed?
That's!
Could it be the powerful who did it?
But can the emperor allow those guys to make a move on his other son?
Jiang Changsheng asked, "Second Highness is fine, right?" ”
Chen Li said: "If you say that you are seriously injured, you shouldn't be killed, otherwise General Hong will have to go crazy, and the mother of the Second Highness is not a good stubble." ”
Jiang Changsheng suddenly couldn't understand the emperor.
After chatting with Qingxu Daoist last time, he guessed that his transfer was probably done by the emperor, and in addition to the emperor, there was a bigger one?
If the emperor did it, then it would be easy to explain, there are so many masters in the palace, how difficult it is to take him out, if the emperor turns a blind eye, then it can be explained, but the emperor let those people take action against his other son, what does this mean?
He had to kill his son, could it be that he, the emperor, was really transferred?
Until now, Jiang Changsheng couldn't understand why the emperor wanted people to transfer him.
"I heard that you injured the demon road, and did it happily, after the demon road was injured, His Majesty rarely saw him again, but recently His Majesty went to the court four or five times a month, I don't know what to do in the palace, and now His Royal Highness is injured again, the hearts of the court are fluctuating, and the prime minister actually took the opportunity to let the prince supervise the country, it is really ridiculous, if there is a gap between the father and son in the future, then the country will not be turbulent?"
Chen Li was filled with righteous indignation when he mentioned the affairs of the court, and he did not taboo the emperor and the crown prince at all.
Jiang Changsheng asked, "Has Your Majesty agreed?" ”
Chen Li said: "I don't know, on that day, Your Majesty did not go to court, and after the adults of the three provinces told Your Majesty about the matter, there was no afterword." ”
The Dajing Dynasty implemented the system of three provinces and six ministries, which was very similar to some dynasties in China, but it was somewhat different, the three provinces were Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province and Shangshu Province, and the status was higher than the six departments, all of them were second-grade important ministers, facing the emperor, and the prime minister was the head of the three provinces, the same level as the three provinces, but in terms of power was higher than the important ministers of the three provinces.
Jiang Changsheng asked curiously: "Brother Chen, what about you, which prince do you support?" ”
As an official in the DPRK, how can you not stand in line?
Chen Li said: "I am naturally the crown prince, since ancient times, it is the right way for the eldest son to be the head, but the prince is in power in advance, and the trouble is greater than the benefit." ”
I rub.
You're a fucking princeling!
Jiang Changsheng was speechless, but Chen Li should not be his enemy, otherwise he would not have said so many rebellious words.
"Speaking of which, His Majesty's attitude towards His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been good and bad, and in recent years, he has even begun to snub the Queen Mother, perhaps His Majesty has begun to be jealous of the Queen Mother's faction." Chen Li said with emotion.
Jiang Changsheng asked, "The queen mother's faction is very strong?" ”
It was difficult for him to understand the things in the palace, and the Qingxu Daoist would not say much.
Chen Li sighed and said: "It's not just strong, it has been able to shake the country, the head of the forbidden army stationed in the capital is the brother of the queen, two of the three provinces are the younger brother of the queen, Your Majesty started the incident, relying on the Yang family, Your Majesty married the queen mother, the Yang family fully supported, only then did the money to recruit troops and buy horses, at that time the Yang family was a giant, poured all the family wealth, supported Your Majesty, the man was a soldier for His Majesty, a talented man for His Majesty as a strategist, the tide ebbed and flowed, no matter Your Majesty's victory or defeat, the Yang family has always followed, is Your Majesty's most trusted force, Until I help Your Majesty lay down this big country. ”
Jiang Changsheng suddenly realized, and suddenly understood why the emperor wanted to transfer him.
He also developed a trace of sympathy for the false prince.
This guy is doomed to tragedy!
The emperor transferred him, and one day revealed that the fake prince was not his own, wouldn't he be able to abolish the prince?
Although the Yang family is angry, they can't find the true prince, so they can only let other princes ascend the throne, and the Yang family will be gradually weakened.
However, the Yang family still has a hole card, that is, the fourth prince Jiang Yu.
Wait a minute!
That Jiang Yu ......
Jiang Changsheng is cold, the tiger poison does not eat children, but his father is really ruthless.
Dajing takes faith as the foundation of the country, the emperor promised to lay down the country and share the world with the Yang family, naturally he can't directly destroy the Yang family, he needs means and reasons.
None of the important ministers who have fallen from power in these years have been accused of rebellion, oppression of the people, etc., because of this, the emperor still has not lost his faith, and it is those courtiers who have died.
Chen Li chatted with Jiang Changsheng for a stick of incense again, and after he left, Jiang Changsheng was still thinking about his thoughts in the house.
There is no family affection in the emperor's house, it turns out that it is not empty words.
Jiang Changsheng sighed in his heart, he was not interested in being an emperor, and now let him be an emperor, he didn't know how to manage the dynasty, but being calculated like this, even if it was his father, he was still unhappy.
is still the same sentence, this revenge will not be avenged, not a gentleman!
Jiang Changsheng's eyes flickered, and he gradually had a bold idea.
……
The Imperial Palace, the second prince's bedroom.
Jiang Yuan, who had half-white hair, sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Jiang Ming on the bed, his face was full of distress, Jiang Ming had woken up, but his face was bloodless, and his lips were chapped.
"Ming'er, don't go out in the future, although the world has been decided, but the remnants of the previous dynasty are still there, understand?"
Jiang Yuan patted the back of Jiang Ming's hand and sighed worriedly.
Jiang Ming gritted his teeth and said: "But I didn't suffer an assassination outside the palace, I ......"
Jiang Yuan glared and shouted in a deep voice: "What you did in Longqiguan was not majestic enough? I don't dare to completely protect one person, but as a prince, you dare to protect one person forever, don't others think you are arrogant after hearing it? ”
"It's ridiculous to let the whole capital go!"
Hearing this, Jiang Ming broke out in a cold sweat.
Behind Jiang Yuan, there is a person, it is the crown prince Jiang Gan, he has an elegant temperament, like a scholar, without the spirit of Jiang Yu and Jiang Ming.
Jiang Qian opened his mouth and said: "Father, the second brother is just quick to speak, and he has no other heart, besides, he is injured, why should my father scare him?" ”
Jiang Ming cast a grateful look at him.
Jiang Yuan glanced at Jiang Qian and snorted, "You, you know how to condone your younger brothers." ”
Jiang Qian smiled and didn't answer again.
The old eunuch behind Jiang Qian was Gonggong Li, who had followed Jiang Yuan all the year round, and it was also the palace where he sent Jiang Changsheng out.
Gonggong Li bent down and said, "Your Majesty, the hour has come, it's time to ask the sky." ”
When Jiang Yuan heard this, he flicked his sleeves, stood up, crossed his hands on his waist, and said with a smile: "Take care of your injuries, the canal will begin to take shape in the coming year, I will take the two of you down to the south of the Yangtze River, from childhood to adulthood, you have not been out of the capital, I will take you to see the great rivers and mountains that I have beaten." ”
After that, Jiang Yuan brushed his sleeves and left, and Gonggong Li hurriedly followed.
Jiang Qian shook his head and smiled, looked at Jiang Ming on the bed, and said with a smile: "Second brother, you take care of your injuries, I have to be busy too." ”
As soon as he turned around, Jiang Ming's voice floated in, making him stop.
"Big brother, do you think someone in the palace wants me to die?"
His tone was intriguing, his eyes were staring upwards, not looking at Jiang Qian.
Jiang Qian turned his head slightly, turned his face to Jiang Ming, and said: "Second brother, read less history books, our Jiang family is the family of the real dragon, how can we kill each other, I will investigate it myself, and I will not allow such a thing to happen." ”
With that, he walked out of the room.
Jiang Ming smiled sarcastically, and then slowly closed his eyes.
……
After the second prince was injured, he didn't send anyone to give gifts, and Jiang Changsheng was also happy to be idle and could concentrate on practicing.
A month later, the snake egg finally hatched, and a small white snake appeared, thinner than Jiang Changsheng's little finger, nearly ten centimeters long, it was no different from ordinary small snakes when it was born, Jiang Changsheng had to take care of it personally, and even tried to be careful about feeding, for fear of choking it to death.
This year, Jiang Changsheng did not encounter any more dangers, the second prince did not come to visit him, and those powerful people who were enemies of him did not send people to assassinate him again.
Eighteen years of Kaiyuan!
In this year, the emperor took the crown prince and the second prince into the canal by boat and went down to the south of the Yangtze River.
The canal, which runs from north to south, is still under construction, but is halfway built and is open for boat operation.
The emperor's departure from Beijing is a major event, and the disciples of Long Qiguan also learned about it, Jiang Changsheng still listened to what Qing Ku said, since the founding of the country, the emperor has left Beijing for the first time.
Jiang Changsheng didn't care, if the emperor didn't care, those powerful people would attack, and they would just give him a survival reward.
He spends most of his time every day on the Dao Law Natural Exercises, and his spiritual power is magnificent, and compared to him, the top master is already a compliment.
On this day, in the hospital.
Jiang Changsheng sat on the threshold, and in front of him stood two children, both six-year-old, a man and a woman, and their robes were draped over them, which looked loose, but it also made them look more cute.
Looking closely, the two Dao boys were motionless, and their pupils were glowing with a faint golden light, which was extremely weird.
On the other hand, Jiang Changsheng's eyes were golden, even in broad daylight, they looked dazzling, and he was casting the Phantom God Pupil to tamper with the memories of the two Dao Tong.
He suddenly closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his pupils returned to normal, and the two Dao Tong woke up.
The female Taoist asked prettyly, "Senior Brother Changsheng, why did you stop?" ”
This is the memory that Jiang Changsheng gave them, making them mistakenly think that they were listening to the sermon, but in fact, they had just arrived, and Jiang Changsheng had not yet preached.
The boy scratched his head, equally confused.
Jiang Changsheng smiled: "It's nothing, let's stop here today, you come back tomorrow, I will teach you some martial arts." ”
When the two heard this, they immediately cheered, and then left.
When they left the courtyard, Jiang Changchang let out a sigh of relief, just changing a memory for nearly five minutes to the two children made him a little dizzy, the side effects of this phantom pupil were really strong.
Jiang Changsheng was not disappointed, but excited, as long as he was strong enough, could he directly change a person's memory of the first half of his life, thereby reversing his personality, and even using it for himself?
It's too domineering!
A white snake emerged from the back of Jiang Changsheng's neck, spitting snake letters at his cheek, looking extremely close.
More than half a year has passed, the white snake has been almost half a meter long, it has a gentle personality, through human nature, Jiang Changsheng named it the white dragon, looking forward to it one day can turn into a dragon.
In the evening of the same day, Chen Li came to visit.
"Changsheng, you have to be careful, Your Majesty has left Beijing, now there is an undercurrent surging in the capital, and my Chen family's Jianghu Erlang heard that the Demon Gate is preparing to enter Beijing, and it is likely that he wants to avenge the evil king of the ghost eye." Chen Li's tone was serious, and his face was full of worry.
