About an hour later, King Chen had gathered a group of men and horses to wait outside, ready to go.

Liu Shuyan rested in the warm pavilion for a while, and the complexion on her face gradually improved. Seeing that Rong Chengjin was willing to work hard for his sister and take risks with himself, he was very grateful in his heart, and said to Rong Chengjin: "My sister's safety depends on my son, I hope you can return safely as soon as possible." ”

Rong Chengjin nodded, but did not say a word.

Liu Shuyan saw that although Rong Chengjin had now eliminated her prejudices against herself, her attitude was still tepid, and she recalled the scene of the two meeting at the beginning, and she couldn't help but feel a little sad in her heart.

King Chen watched Lou Shi finish explaining to Ling Shiyi and wiped his tears and talked to Zhu Yan for a long time, took the brocade box from behind and held it in front of Rong Chengjin with both hands, and said: "Yan'er is young, Wanwang Gongzi takes care of it more, this king is grateful!"

Rong Chengjin opened the brocade box, and the beautifully carved Buddha statue lay quietly in the brocade box, inlaid with beads and treasures, and was full of brilliance.

Although everyone stood three feet away, they could still clearly see the light shooting out of the brocade box. Rong Chengjin covered the brocade box, took the brocade box from his hand, took the reins and wanted to turn over and get on the horse.

I only heard King Chen say: "Wait a minute, Childe!" turned around and instructed the guards: "Bring wine!"

A guard had already brought over the wine that had been prepared with a tray in his hand.

King Chen took the silver kettle, poured three cups, and said to Rong Chengjin: "On the way here, there may be danger, three glasses of thin wine, may the prince win the banner and smooth sailing!"

Rong Chengjin listened, rolled his eyes and glanced at him, but his body did not move at all.

Li Shishi watched from the sidelines, as if he had woken up, and said with a smile: "The son doesn't drink, presumably because he is afraid that the wine is poisonous, okay, the old man will try three cups first." As he spoke, he wanted to step forward.

I only heard King Chen shouting: "Presumptuous! You are a scholar, how can you drink with a chivalrous person like Rong Gongzi!"

King Chen said, picked up the wine glass, and said, "First cup, I wish the son a victory, and return safely with Miss Liu!" After speaking, he picked up the wine glass, raised his head and drank it all.

"The second cup, I wish the son and Miss Liu to tie the knot, and they will be together for a hundred years!"

"In the third cup, Lone knew that the little girl Zhu Yan had always admired the child, and she pitied the hearts of the parents in the world, so she begged the son not to despise the little girl's ignorance, and called her sister with Miss Liu, and served the son. ”

After King Chen finished speaking, he raised his head and finished drying, raised his sleeve and secretly touched a handful of tears.

Then he personally held the wine jug, poured three glasses in turn, and raised his glass to Rong Chengjin.

I didn't want Rong Chengjin to be like I hadn't seen it, my eyes were staring at King Chen, unmoved.

Seeing this, Li Shishi hurriedly glanced at Zhu Yan secretly.

Seeing this, Zhu Yan walked over and took the wine glass from King Chen's hand and handed it to Rong Chengjin, saying, "Brother Chengjin, for my sake, you can have a drink." ”

Rong Chengjin looked at Zhu Yan, saw that she looked sincere, and thought of her friendship for herself in her heart, so she couldn't refute her face, so she took the wine glass from Zhu Yan's hand and drank it all.

Mei Guanqun couldn't help but ask after seeing a walk away: "Sir, one of my subordinates is puzzled.......

"I know what you want to ask?" Li Shishi said lightly, "Do you want to tell you where the secret edict of the Martial Emperor came from? Let me tell you the truth, these things were prepared ten days ago, and they were prepared to trick Liu Shuxian into assassinating the Martial Emperor." Not only this, but even the tablet of Liu Jian enshrined in the ancestral hall of the palace is readily available, but I didn't expect it to be used here. ”

When Mei Guanqun heard this, he admired him in his heart, hugged his fist at Li Shishi, and flattered: "Mr. is really far-sighted, and his subordinates are convinced!"

"Ahh.......h ”

Mei Guanqun hurriedly knelt down when he heard this: "Mr. praises falsely, if you don't dislike it, Mei is willing to serve Mr. Saddle before and after the horse, and swear to follow him to the death!"

"Lord Mei's words are inappropriate!" Li Shishi paused, and then said: "You and I both serve the prince and are loyal. How can the old man dare to serve the lord?"

"Yes, yes, sir. The subordinates are vulgar people in martial arts, and their words are inappropriate. Mei only knows that no matter how big or small, the prince is planning to work for the prince, and serving the gentleman is to serve the prince! As long as the prince and the gentleman say a word, Mei will come with water in the water and go to the fire, and dare to give up this cheap life to repay the appreciation of the prince and the gentleman!"

Li Shishi was very satisfied, and stretched out his hand to help Mei Guanqun up: "Lord Mei is loyal to the prince, this sincerity can be learned, if the prince knows, he will be very happy!"

Rong Chengjin rode a high-headed horse, day and night, all the way north, and the two of them crossed Henan, crossed Shandong, and came to Zhuozhou.

Emperor Wu was carrying a green-haired parrot, lying on the door to please Liu Shuxian, a beauty on the left, a concubine on the right, the Emperor Wu's mouth was dry, and the skin of his mouth was about to wear out, Liu Shuxian curled up in the tent, just ignored it.

was at a loss for anything, and suddenly saw the great eunuch Liu Jin come to report: "Your Majesty, Zhu Yan, the daughter of King Chen, has got a treasure, and she has come to present it to the emperor!"

"What a baby. ”

Liu Jin pinched his orchid finger and replied: "The old slave has never heard of it, saying that it is a thunder sound transmission method, and the whole body is carefully carved with fine mutton fat and white jade, and it is inlaid with beads and treasures, which is priceless." ”

Fei Hong, a university scholar, was right, but was ignored by Emperor Wu, standing aside with his head drooping, a handful of old bones were about to fall apart, hearing this, he hurriedly shouted: "Your Majesty, the old minister came here today to report to the emperor about King Chen's rebellion." King Chen's wolf ambition has colluded with courtiers everywhere for so many years, and he has privately supported the army and respected himself. According to the report from the spies, King Chen heard that the emperor was going south to inspect the people, and he was about to move. This is a gift of beauties and treasures, intended to paralyze the emperor, and the emperor must check it!"

The great eunuch Liu Jin has long been bribed by King Chen, and he is from a humble background, relying on the favor of Emperor Wu, he often usurps power without authority, and the ministers of the court and the central government have long been dissatisfied, and he is often excluded and ridiculed by Fei Hong and others. The two did not deal with each other, and they had already developed from a secret fight to incandescent fighting. Seeing this, Liu Jin hurriedly pouted on the side: "Your Majesty, Lord Fei is insinuating, Lord Fei has lived in the cabinet for more than 20 years, and is known as a miserly. King Chen must have known that the emperor was working his southern tour, so he offered treasures every once in a while to relieve the emperor's fatigue and boredom, and the emperor of our family smiled, and Lord Fei boasted of being clear, in addition to playing right and wrong in front of the emperor every day, how could he have paid half a tael of silver to honor our emperor? According to the old slave, Lord Fei was reluctant to pay his own money, and he was afraid that others would steal his limelight in front of the emperor, so he was alarmist in front of the emperor!

Before he finished speaking, Fei Hong, who was angry, trembled all over, pointed his finger at Liu Jin for a while, if Liu Jin was closer at this time, he was afraid that Fei Hong would be able to poke a few blood holes in him, and his lips trembled and said: "You, you, reverse black and white, blood spews, you-"

The two were arguing, only to hear a light voice from the room: "Emperor, Emperor, the thunder sound transmission is my family's ancestral heirloom, can you .......?"

Seeing that Liu Shuxian finally took the initiative to speak to herself, Emperor Wu couldn't help but smile with joy, and hurriedly said: "Okay, good, good, Concubine Ai likes it, even if it is the moon in the sky, I will find a way to pick it off for Concubine Ai!"

Liu Jin agreed, bowed down and left.

Fei Hongwu chattered to himself: "Your Majesty, don't do it!"

Emperor Wu said: "Pavilion Lao Xiu said more, I have my own plans." ”

"Your Majesty—"

"Shut up, if you bother again, I will immediately dismiss your official and send you to the land of Qianbarbarian!

Fei Hong was silent for a moment, said "the old minister farewell", and went away.

After a while, I only heard Liu Jin singing loudly: "The emperor has arrived!"

Zhu Yan hurriedly stood up and lowered his head.

I only heard a sound of footsteps, and a faint fragrance came in, and the Martial Emperor had already walked into the room with Liu Shuxian shoulder to shoulder.
