The imperial palace of Chang'an City is still lit up at night.

The eunuchs moved cautiously, carrying red lanterns to carefully inspect every door and window.

Praetorian guards with swords patrolled the passages of the palace.

Compared with the bright lights everywhere, the light of Weiyang Palace, which is the main hall, is dim, and only one palace lamp is flickering with soybean-sized flames.

As a result, the interior of the palace was so dark that it was barely possible to see things only within a radius of a few feet illuminated by the palace lamps.

Underneath the palace lamp, three figures sat at a long table.

The three of them wore robes in very similar styles, but the different tiaras on their heads made them clearly distinguished.

One of them wore a crown of twelve, and another made a slight alteration to the crown and folded one of them, leaving only eleven to hang down.

The other tiara is made of gold wire, which is also noble and extraordinary, but it does not have two crowns of heaven.

The dim light illuminates the three tiaras, making the faces under the tiaras faintly discernible in the darkness.

The two faces under the crown were almost identical, except that one had a haggard face, while the other had the same complexion.

And under the crown of gold silk is a young face.

The young man's gaze swept over the haggard face on the left, and then at the normal-looking face on the right.

No one responded to his gaze, and it was not until the small flame in the palace lamp suddenly extinguished without wind and everything disappeared into darkness that the young face opened his mouth in a low voice.

"Father, uncle?"

The voice of inquiry was not conspicuous in the empty Weiyang Palace.

"How?"

"It should be done!"

Two voices came one after the other, the former asking and the latter answering.

This relieved the former.

When he clapped his hands, the twelve palace lights in Weiyang Palace were lit, and the person who had previously carried the eleven heavenly crowns had disappeared.

"Father?"

The young face asked urgently, causing the eyes of the man wearing the twelve crowns to the sky to look slightly angry.

"Che'er, you'll always be so earnest!"

"Father, the son knows it's wrong!"

There are only two people left in the Weiyang Palace, and only the two with the highest power in the Han Dynasty remain.

One is the emperor, and the other is the emperor's successor.

The former is obviously Emperor Jing, while the latter is the crown prince Liu Che.

The crown prince raised his head and looked at Emperor Jing's haggard face, and the eagerness on his face was obvious.

Listening to the sound of the crown prince admitting his mistake, this made Emperor Jing finally sigh.

"This is just a fateful technique of the Xiangmen, and the light goes out is a proof that the technique has become" Jingdi Dao.

"Isn't the Fuxi Xiangmen destroyed?" The prince was surprised: "There are no of their skills in the secret pavilion. ”

"It's hard to say that the complete spell casting is expensive, so naturally it won't be put into the secret pavilion" Emperor Jing said: "Your imperial uncle's physiognomy is also incomplete, and if you forcibly cast it, you are only afraid that you will lose your Yang Shou, and you will probably go one step ahead of me!" ”

Emperor Jing's tone was extremely flat when he spoke, but his eyes were dark and unpredictable.

He spread out the silk on the long table, and there was not a word on the silk, which made the prince's face change again and again.

Emperor Jing directly gave two pieces of bad news in one sentence.

One is that Emperor Jing's lifespan is difficult to normal, and the other is that the mysterious emperor's lifespan is likely to be shorter.

And the third factor that made his face change came from the silk.

The prince clearly remembered that the scroll of silk was covered with all kinds of messy symbols, but after the palace lights went out, those symbols on the silk were gone.

"This is Xiangmen's Fuxi gossip calculation world, your imperial uncle is not capable, and he only got a glimmer of opportunity!" King Emperor Road.

"What's the trigger?" The prince said in a low voice.

"Naturally, it is an opportunity for my Han to continue" Emperor Jing said: "This opportunity happened to Dong Zhongshu!" ”

"Does Dr. Dong really have this ability?" The prince couldn't believe it.

"The technique of Xiangmen is strange and unpredictable, who knows" Emperor Jing shook his head and said: "Anyway, the opportunity is to maintain him, and now he should have done a part of the thing." ”

"That's part of it?"

"He is currently in the land of Shu County, maybe it is a fortunate thing for my Han to belong to the Wen Weng School Palace, if he comes back to report earlier, I will make a holy decree to give Shu County some convenience, if he comes back late, you will also make such arrangements when you arrive, but the matter of the School Palace needs to be gradual and gradual, this kind of thing must not be rushed, so as not to become a place for Haoqiang to hunt fame and fortune!"

"Erchen wrote it down."

"It's a pity that the matter of the candle nine yin is difficult to fool after all, he is now living in the secret place of the evil Ross River, he should be patiently waiting for changes" Emperor Jing sighed and said: "My father has studied and practiced hard for decades, and he is still invincible to his manifestation body, if he embarrasses you in the future, you can sacrifice the snake sword of the ancestor Emperor Gao!" ”

"The Red Sky Sword?"

"Yes, but you can only hold a sword, don't use a sword" Emperor Jing advised: "Let's pretend to be okay, if you really want to use a sword, he will inevitably be seen to be false." ”

"What conditions must be met for the ancestor's sword to be wielded?" The prince was puzzled.

"Father doesn't know" Emperor Jing shook his head and said: "But you don't have to pin your expectations entirely on a sword, the real strength comes from yourself, not from external objects!" ”

"What my father taught!"

"If you have great ability and can one day dominate the world by force, as strong as the Qin Emperor, then it must be from all directions, and everyone will obey, and you don't need to think about this kind of foreign object at that time."

"But the Qin Emperor ......"

"Daqin will not be destroyed one day with him, and he is not so easy to lose, maybe he is still staring somewhere, maybe he still has a backhand, maybe we will return all this to him one day!"

Emperor Jing shook his head.

The cultivation system of the Han Kingdom was extremely fragmented, and the Qin Dynasty at that time almost gathered what the Quartet had learned, and the inheritance of jade in the library pavilion was lined up, and capable people and strangers emerged in an endless stream.

Under such conditions, what the Qin Dynasty had calculated might be something that only the Qin Emperor could answer.

The two kings in Weiyang Palace are just a trick, and they are likely to be unable to do it in the eyes of the other party.

Emperor Jing sighed.

Without the fall of the Qin Dynasty, there would have been no birth of the Han Dynasty, and in terms of status, he had to thank the fall of the Qin Dynasty for allowing them to have the possibility of being an emperor.

But from the perspective of national status, Emperor Jing hated Emperor Qin's behavior of burning many people.

This brought great disaster to those who came after it.

In the past, the Eastern Earth Dynasty was overwhelming, and now they can only defend everywhere, and even need to deal with it strategically.

Once it encounters the strong pressure of the force, everything in the Han Dynasty will be uncovered like a fig leaf, and the face will be gone.

"This is what the ancestor said, I just used it to repeat it to you!"

When the prince's face showed surprise, Emperor Jing had to explain.

"In terms of normal lifespan, even if Emperor Qin can live again, he will be more than 100 years old, and there is nothing to worry about at this age" Emperor Jing added: "Even if he can live a long life, it is impossible for everyone in his army to live a long life, and our generation hardly needs to worry about Emperor Qin, and he does not have the capital to make a comeback." ”

"That's what my father said!"

"The crisis you really have to deal with after you ascend the throne comes from the fierce country, beware of them taking advantage of the fire to rob and lead to external troubles, and then cause internal troubles, the other is from your future Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager, their temperament tends to be conservative and steady, and the people of the fairy court have repeatedly secretly contacted the Empress Dowager, and the other is to beware of your imperial uncles, they may one day be bewitched by some secret forces, Li Guang's origin seems to have some problems, you have to be cautious, don't let him hold power, and also, you need to prevent and control the hundred schools of thought, There's a horrible old antique ...... in their school."

In Weiyang Palace, Emperor Jing taught him by hand, and he almost didn't name and describe the situation.

Some topics are clichés, and the prince has listened to them over and over again, and when it comes to the personnel changes in the imperial court, the prince finally couldn't help but ask.

"Then am I going to reuse Dr. Dong in the future?"

"Emperor Qin killed the Confucian masters who were proficient in the ability of the hundred schools, and the Empress Dowager also took this as a warning, and all Confucianists were not reused, and those who wanted to reuse the Confucian school would inevitably be stopped by the Empress Dowager" Emperor Jing pondered again and again: "But the times are always changing, and it may be necessary to guard against the hundred schools of thought decades ago, or it may be unnecessary in your time!" ”

Emperor Jing looked at the crown prince.

What is necessary and what is not necessary, he hopes that the prince can figure it out for himself.

When a person is weak, even his wife, son and daughter are not at ease.

When a person is strong, even Fanbang strangers can take it and return it to the account.

As long as the Han Dynasty has enough confidence to control it, it doesn't matter who you use, it doesn't matter what kind of people you use, and it doesn't matter what school you belong to, what matters is what these people can do and what they can bring to the Han Dynasty.
