The palace is used to keep time, and the "twilight drum and morning bell" is used to tell the time.

The morning bell had just struck four times, and the hour had come. Since returning to the palace from Duanwang's Mansion at three o'clock last night, Emperor Yonghua has stood in front of the stone fence of the Qinzheng Palace, and has not moved for almost a night. In his life, he had encountered many troubles and sorrows, but none of them had made him so confused as he is today. "Could it be that the tragedy of 28 years of cannibalism and sibling frying is going to happen again?" Ni Ju was waiting by his side, and he was silent all night.

"Ju Zheng, pass on my order, transfer a thousand god sentry battalions to Pingzhou, and welcome King Yi back. In this matter, you will take my golden order to do it in a while, and tell them to set off as soon as dawn, the capital is only more than 500 miles away from Pingzhou, so that they will not stop, and they will arrive within one day and night!" In any case, he has to try to prevent the tragedy of 28 years ago from happening again.

"Yes, Your Majesty. Ni Juzheng bowed in response.

In addition, after a while, he asked Shang Shutai to draw up two holy decrees, and urgently summoned the King of Jaw and the King of Zhen back to the capital. The two holy decrees sent a hundred divine outposts to Suzhou and Pinan outposts respectively. It was strictly ordered that the King of Jaw and the King of Zhen should return to the court as soon as they received the holy decree, and there should be no mistakes! All the affairs in their hands were taken over by the vice-officials in the meantime. Emperor Yonghua said in a deep voice.

Ni Juzheng nodded "yes".

After pondering for a long time, Emperor Yonghua still felt that it was not enough to be safe, and said again: "Then give a strict order to the county administration and resident generals of the six counties of Shanghe, Anxian, Fuyang, Pinan, Cangsheng, and Fanxi, and order them to send people to guard the three lines of people and horses of King Yi, King Jaw, and King Zhen along the way, and there must be no mistake in the slightest! These twelve holy decrees were sent to the army department to be sent to the post for 800 miles quickly, and the horses were changed along the way, and the decree should not be stranded for more than two hours, and if there was a delay, they would be killed!" He has always been generous and rarely kills people, but today he can't help but be ruthless.

Ni Juzheng had never seen him so decisive, obviously what he thought about this night, and immediately accepted it. When he thought that everything was about to be finished, Emperor Yonghua sighed deeply, and then said in a cold voice: "Let Hu Xiu'an closely monitor the palace, and see who he interacts with." If he found that people from the rivers and lakes frequently came and went to the palace, he asked him to send people to surround the palace. Then he asked Shangshufu to draft a decree, and said: The king is suffering from an emergency and it is difficult to recover for a while, and the matter of conscription in the rivers and lakes will be handled by King Duan with full authority. ”

The palm of the hand is his own meat, but the back of the hand is not his own meat? Xia Muren, Xia Muchao, and Xia Muyang are his sons, and Xia Muyan is also the son of his relatives, and he doesn't want to hurt any of them, and he doesn't want to lose any of them.

"Yes, Your Majesty. Ni Juzheng bowed and replied.

Emperor Yonghua looked at the faint whiteness of the fish belly in the east, his eyes were hazy, and he sighed lightly: "Emperor, no matter how heavy the throne is, how can it be more important than the blood relative!"

... ...

The lights in the palace were bright all night, and Xia Muyan also stayed awake all night. When everything was arranged, a smile began to appear on his face, and the so-called confidence may be the case.

"Lord Wang, everyone has been released, you should also rest!" He Fukai stepped forward and persuaded. This night, he stayed by Xia Muyan's side, and he participated in everything from the side. What the two of them are planning is a big thing, and there is no room for mistakes.

Xia Muyan picked up the teacup on the case, took a sip of tea, with a slight smile on his face, and said softly: "Hehe, reopen, you can also sit down." Although I have been busy all night, I am not sleepy at all, but I feel much more energetic than usual!"

He Fukai sat down on the opposite side of the tea case, and said with a smile: "The prince has been planning for many years, and he has been planning for a while, which is naturally very different from the past. He originally thought that Xia Muyan only had the idea of winning the crown today, but he didn't think that he had already laid out for a long time, and there were so many chess pieces hidden in the dark, which really made him frightened.

Xia Muyan frowned, and said with a smile: "You can deduce it for me again, see where there are any omissions?"

"Hmm... King Yi has the help of the Salt Gang and the Nine Palaces, and with the more than 300 people around King Yi, how can they not stop him, it is impossible for him to come back alive. As for the jaw king, he was attacked by Azig and Zhao Qianming on both sides, but he was fooled and went out of the city, and he would definitely die. For the rest, I don't know if Mu Danqing can decide on a lone king. Hehe..."Even he never thought that Xia Muyan would have settled the chess pieces so long in advance, his thoughtfulness and prudence were really breathtaking.

"Haha! Maybe King Jaw won't be fooled and won't go out of the city? Or maybe Mu Danqing really can't even deal with a lone king. Haha..."Xia Muyan smiled a little weirdly. His face was calm, but what he said was quite crazy, even He Fukai was a little confused.

"Lord Wang, what about that Suiguang, he is not a pawn of peace!" He Fukai lay on the tea table with one hand, leaned over and said.

Xia Muyan raised his eyebrows, looked indifferent, and said with a smile: "His role in me is nothing more than killing King Yi." There are a lot of masters around King Yi, and our people may not be able to do it, but they will do it forcibly, and the movement is too big, and the things that follow will not be done. Zhang Suiguang has a lot of masters, but I am afraid that only they can do this cleanly. The so-called killing 1,000 enemies and inflicting 800 self-inflicted losses is unspeakable, and this time it will make him feel a pain in the flesh! A person like him will never be willing to be easily used by others. In order to sit on the ground and raise the price, after the matter is completed, he will not let go of any of the people we sent. In order to accompany him to do this, I also lost more than 200 people, hehe, don't disappoint me!"

He Fuxing's head tightened, and his scalp couldn't help tingling: "This is more than two hundred dead masters, knowing that Zhang Suiguang will do something to them, why doesn't the prince blink?"

"Only by weakening my strength will I rely on him more, and he will be able to get greater benefits. He is a smart man, but also an ambitious man, this kind of person is actually easy to deal with. Xia Muyan seemed to be explaining his doubts to He Fu.

"Lord Wang, what about that Suiguang, he is not a pawn of peace!" He Fukai lay on the tea table with one hand, leaned over and said.

Xia Muyan raised his eyebrows, looked indifferent, and said with a smile: "His role in me is nothing more than killing King Yi." There are a lot of masters around King Yi, and our people may not be able to do it, but they will do it forcibly, and the movement is too big, and the things that follow will not be done.
