The sixth princess, Zhu Yueyao, was eighteen years old, and Zhu Sheng, the emperor of Yan, was born from the same mother. Because of the appearance of the flowers and the moon born since he was a child and his eccentric temperament, he was very favored by the first emperor and his brothers.

Just now there was news outside the palace that the father of the good sister Liu Yingrong, Liu Chuanfang, the first assistant to the cabinet, vomited blood and fainted when he got up early this morning. Zhu Yueyao took two personal palace maids to rush out of the palace to accompany and comfort her good sisters.

It is said that the land dragon in the Guanzhong area of the Western Weekend turned over, coupled with the continuous drought caused the people to go into exile, and the country was in turmoil. The Western Zhou Emperor, King Zhou You, did not want to appease the exiled people, but instead built a palace, and at the same time ordered to recruit beauties from all over the world into the palace for their enjoyment..."

When passing through the garden where the eighth brother Zhu Yan and his nephew Zhu Yun were playing, they heard a subdued man's voice.

Different from the sharp femininity of the eunuch's chamberlain, and different from the rough and heroic of the guards and forbidden troops, this voice is soft and masculine, and there is a feeling like a spring breeze in the ears.

And the content of this voice also aroused Zhu Yueyao's interest.

"There was a minister in the Zhou Dynasty named Bao Jue, who was imprisoned for annoying King You. In order to save him, Bao Jue's clansmen found a stunning woman among the people, named the woman Bao Xi, and sent her to the palace to please King You, and took the opportunity to intercede for Bao Jue. The king was fascinated by Bao Xi's beauty and was very pampered... Bala Bala Bala... This time, the dog army really killed, and the king of Youwang hurriedly ordered someone to light a beacon fire. But because of the previous teasing, the princes thought it was still fake, so they did not send troops. As a result, the Dog Rong army broke through the city, the king of Zhou You was killed, Bao Xi was taken captive, and the Western Zhou Dynasty was destroyed from then on. ”

After all, it was too far away, and the sound was not really heard intermittently, Zhu Yueyao was fascinated by it, and her feet unconsciously moved into the courtyard step by step, approaching the pavilion.

Although the three short stories of Pinocchio, The Wolf and the Princes of the Beacon Opera do not sound as lively and exciting as the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, they are novel enough and have profound implications, telling the world to be honest and trustworthy, otherwise they will inevitably suffer a big loss.

Zhu Yan and Zhu Yun heard the last story, but they didn't cheer as happily as before, but lowered their heads slightly, their small eyes dripping and rolling in their sockets, and they didn't know whether they were recalling the truth in the story, or secretly scolding the mediocrity of the Youwang.

"Hey, Sixth Sister, why are you here?"

After thinking about it secretly for a while, Zhu Yan raised his head and was about to say something, but when he saw Zhu Yueyao standing outside the pavilion, he stood up and shouted.

"Aunt Sixth is good."

Zhu Yun also stood up and shouted milkily.

Rong Fei sat with his back to Zhu Yueyao, heard what the two said, guessed that a princess was coming, and hurriedly stood up and turned around to salute.

"Rong Fei has seen the princess."

Rong Fei knew that there were many rules in the palace, especially when a strange man saw a female dependent, he had to pay attention to etiquette. The so-called indecent don't listen, don't look at indecent things, so I said that I had seen the princess, but I kept my head down, and I didn't dare to really see what the princess looked like.

"Rong Fei? You are not an inner servant, nor are you a guard of the forbidden army, why are you in the palace? ”

Zhu Yueyao walked into the pavilion, gestured to Zhu Yan and Zhu Yun to sit down, and asked after she found a way to sit down.

Without waiting for Rong Fei to answer, the waiter Xiao Shunzi stood outside the pavilion and bowed.

"Slave Xiaoshunzi, see Princess Silverlight."

"Xiao Shunzi, I remember that you are Wei Daban's attendant, why did you come here?"

"If you go back to the princess, grandpa godfather has something important to do, so let the slave and maid accompany Rong to catch the head."

Hearing this, Zhu Yueyao looked at Rong Fei suspiciously.

"Where are you the head catcher, what are you doing in the palace?"

"Sixth aunt, he is the head catcher of the Immortal Division, and he was brought in by Mr. Yu to solve the case. Don't you chase him away, he tells a good story. ”

Zhu Yun shook Zhu Yueyao's arm and pleaded.

"Hehehe, little ghost, I haven't spoken yet, how do you know I'm going to drive him away?"

Zhu Yueyao scratched Zhu Yun's little nose dotingly and asked with a smile.

"It's good if you don't rush Rong Fei away, the story he tells is good, it's good. If you don't believe Aunt Six, let Rong Fei talk about one now, make sure you like to listen to it, and Rong Fei will tell another one for Aunt Six to listen to soon. ”

The little milk baby Zhu Yun's eyes flashed with a cunning light, and he beckoned to Rongfei and shouted.

"Well... Then let's tell another story about Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai. ”

Of course, Rong Fei didn't want to go, so he unceremoniously took the ladder that Zhu Yun had set up and went up.

"It is said that in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Zhujiazhuang, Shangyu County, Zhejiang, by the Yushui River, there was a daughter named Yingtai, beautiful and intelligent... Balabala..."

……

Syllable!

In the side hall of Yongqian Palace, Emperor Yan Zhu Sheng was about to throw it when he raised his hand, but his hand was held in the air for a long time, and finally he gently put the fold on the table.

At this time, Zhu Sheng's face no longer had the calmness of yesterday, and the emotions in his eyes were mixed with panic, anger, confusion, ruthlessness, and determination, and the whole person was like a volcano that could erupt at any time.

Footsteps sounded outside the door, and from the weight and rhythm of the voice, Zhu Sheng already knew who was coming, and the expression on his face instantly returned to his usual light and breezy appearance, and he picked up the fold he had just put down and flipped through it.

"Your Majesty, the old slave is back."

Wei Lin entered the room and closed the door tightly, and then walked to Zhu Sheng's side and bowed his hand.

"How's the old Shousuke doing?"

Zhu Sheng asked quietly.

"Doctor Guan has already seen it, and said that he can't see it accurately, maybe the weather has become cold recently, and he has committed an old problem, so he prescribed some medicine to warm and recuperate, and strengthen the foundation and cultivate the yuan. When the old slave left, Liu Shoufu had no signs of waking up. ”

"Hmph, Shousuke's old mistake was not committed early or late, but it was committed the day before the day before the ceremony. What a coincidence! ”

Zhu Sheng's tone was calm, but Wei Lin, who had been with him for many years, knew that this calmness was actually a precursor to anger.

Liu Shoufu's old mistake is really not at the right time.

Half a year ago, most of the officials in the court secretly believed that Zhu Cheng, the king of Yong, would definitely inherit the unification, so they secretly swore allegiance.

The final result was beyond everyone's expectations, and Zhu Sheng, the sixth prince, who has always been inconspicuous, became the one who had the last laugh.

Those ministers who have already chosen sides in advance know that after Zhu Sheng takes control of the government, they will inevitably settle accounts after the autumn. In order to protect themselves, they can only continue to surround King Yong and form the most powerful group of henchmen in the court-Yongdang.

Among the Yong Party, there is a cabinet assistant, three scholars, and four squires, and there are countless officials above the fourth rank who hold real power. It is not an exaggeration to say that it occupies half of the court.

If it weren't for the strong support of the old chief assistant Liu Chuanfang, Zhu Sheng controlled the forbidden army guarding Kyoto in the shortest possible time, and competed with military power, it is difficult to say whether the emperor's throne can sit safely to this day.

But now that the Optimus Pillar of Lao Shoufu has collapsed, how can Zhu Sheng not be in a hurry? How not to get angry? How not to be afraid?

The master and servant in the room did not speak for a long time, each thinking about their own thoughts and countermeasures.

"The one that Mr. Yu brought is called... What the hell..."

Zhu Sheng was like a drowning man at this time, no matter what he saw in front of him, whether it was a thick branch or a tender grass, he would catch it first, but he couldn't remember the name of the little catcher for a while.

"Rong Fei."

Wei Lin hurriedly said.

"Yes, it's called Rong Fei. How's it going on on his side? Have you found anything? ”

"This... The old slave went to ask. ”

Wei Lin turned around and wanted to leave, but was called back by Zhu Sheng.

"The old Shoufu's side is even more important, others are not at ease, and you still have to be watched by your companion. No matter when the old Shousuke wakes up, he must report it immediately. ”

As he spoke, Zhu Sheng brushed a few strokes and wrote a note and handed it to Wei Lin.

"Show the strip to Fan Liren, and authorize you to enter and exit the palace gate at any time, and Feiyuwei can't stop it."

"The old slave obeys."

Wei Lin took the slip with both hands and bowed down to take the order, and only when he walked out of the room did he take the time to raise his sleeve and wipe the beads of sweat on his forehead, but he felt a trace of coolness.

The wind is blowing.

Wei Lin looked at the cloudy, gloomy sky, and sighed secretly in his heart.

The autumn wind and autumn rain are sad!

Knock... Knock... Knock...

Zhu Sheng put his hand on the case, and tapped his middle finger on the case, the expression on his face changed with worry and anger.

When the first emperor died, he did not issue an edict or explicitly let Zhu Cheng leave Kyoto to go to the fiefdom to take up his post. In addition, the current queen mother is Zhu Cheng's biological mother, and she has always expressed openly and secretly that she hopes that Zhu Cheng can spend more time with her in Kyoto.

Zhu Sheng's foundation is not stable, and it is not easy to be strong, but secretly he has been on guard.

The court's absolute trust in Liu Chuanfang and absolute delegation of power suppressed the Yongdang Party and stabilized the government. On the other hand, the four officials of the forbidden army who guarded Kyoto and the officers of the flying feather guard who guarded the palace were replaced with henchmen who were absolutely trusted.

According to Zhu Sheng's original plan, the Yongdang Party will definitely make trouble on the grounds of testing the authenticity of the jade seal at the ceremony tomorrow. If the Yongdang Party still refuses to give up, there will be people arranged by Zhu Sheng in advance to create a riot among the hundred officials, and Feiyuwei forcibly terminated the ceremony in the name of escorting, and took the opportunity to arrest a few backbones of the Yongdang to kill chickens and make an example.

As long as the authenticity of the jade seal is not confirmed on the spot, Zhu Sheng will be invincible.

The ceremony held every four years is a major event of the dynasty, and it has not been terminated halfway since the founding of Dayan. And after tomorrow, this matter will become a stain that Zhu Sheng will not be able to erase in his life, and will be recorded in the history books and ridiculed by future generations.

But compared with it, Zhu Sheng cares more about whether the person sitting on that throne will still be himself after tomorrow!

As for the little stains... Let's leave it to posterity.

But after thousands of calculations, they did not count that they dared to attack the head of the cabinet of the current dynasty. Tomorrow, if Liu Chuanfang does not come forward to deter the Yong Party, other officials who are not affiliated with the Yong Party will lose their leaders, and I am afraid that no one will dare to come forward to confront them.

At that time, Zhu Sheng will fall into a situation of political isolation and helplessness, and the only ones he can rely on are Fei Yuwei and the Forbidden Army.

Don't... Can you only make the most dangerous move?

Thinking of the blood-soaked altar and the picture of people's heads rolling in his mind, Zhu Sheng couldn't help but shudder.

This is a risky move as a last resort!

Let's see if the guy Yu Qingzhi brought back can find evidence of Zhu Cheng's instruction to steal the jade seal.

The sound of fingers tapping on the table stopped abruptly, and Zhu Sheng called out in a low voice.

"Jiashen."

"The slave is here."

A black shadow crept in through the crack in the closed door, and knelt respectfully in front of the imperial case.

"Go see what the guy surnamed Rong is doing?"

The black shadow called Jiashen answered, and fluttered out through the crack in the door.

Half an hour later, Jia Shen returned to the side hall and replied on his knees in front of the imperial case.

"Back to Your Majesty, Rong Fei is telling stories to the crown prince, King Qi and Princess Yinguang."
