In the dead of night, the moonlight is like flowing water, quietly pouring on the green glazed tiles, reflecting the soft brilliance.

The wind is gentle, and the leaves rustle.

A rickety figure flew to the top of the hall in the air, looking at the black-clothed swordsman who was sitting on the eaves and bowing his head to sip wine, his eyes were full of solemnity, and he bowed and said: "Who is Your Excellency, why are you in the palace of Emperor Zhao?"

This person was able to avoid the heavily guarded guards and quietly enter the palace, his strength must be amazing, Gonggong Chen did not dare to make a loud noise, and his tone was relaxed.

Seeing that he was discovered, Jian Yi raised his head slightly, stood up with a wine jug in his hand, and there was no trace of panic in his eyes. This huge imperial city of Chen was already heavily guarded, not to mention that this was the dormitory of Emperor Zhao.

"If I'm not mistaken, you are the king of Pingnan who made people frightened and dominated the Chen Kingdom back then. ”

The sword shook his head, and he didn't know if it was because of what had just happened, or because of the drinking, and his cheeks under the veil were flushed. The moon slowly rose from mid-air, dimly outlining a pale golden light, rendering him mysterious.

Hearing this, Gonggong Chen's heart sank, and he was slightly silent, but he still nodded: "Yes, the old slave is exact." There are guests from afar, please follow the old slave into the room for a while, I don't know what your intention is?"

"No need!"

Jian Yi put down the wine jug indifferently, looked at the skinny Chen Gonggong, and said slowly: "I don't have any thoughts about your Chen family, and you don't need to be so wary of me." ”

Gonggong Chen remained silent, but his heart couldn't help but relax, he put away the dust, swung it on his chest, and said with a slight smile: "Thank you, I don't know what your Excellency is here?"

Jian Yi said in a deep voice: "The murderer that the Xue family wants to investigate is my friend, you tell Emperor Zhao about this, don't make a move on them, otherwise, there will be no need for your Chen State to exist." In addition, I need you to help me find their traces, and as soon as there is news, I will be notified at the Fortune Inn. When you Chen Guo is in danger, I can help. ”

"Don't dare!"

Gonggong Chen's face was overjoyed, his body trembled slightly with excitement, and he bowed respectfully: "Your Excellency, the old slave will do his best to track down their news for you, and secretly send a master to protect you." ”

"Well, that's good!"

Jian Yi turned around slightly, as if he had thought of something, turned his head and said, "Be careful Mu Yici, this woman is not simple!"

At the end of the words, the slender figure of the sword disappeared into the night, and disappeared into the moonlit palace in the blink of an eye.

"God bless me Chen Guo!"

Gonggong Chen said a word to the night sky overjoyed, turned around and landed on the ground, and hurriedly went to investigate the news of Li Wangchen and Luo Yu.

In the palace of Emperor Zhao, on the Baoluo tent with gold flying pearls, embroidered and sprinkled with pearls and silver thread begonia flowers, the wind is moving, like falling clouds and mountains and phantom seas. The couch was set with a golden silkworm incense pillow, covered with soft silkworm ice sticks, and the jade belt Luo Ji was spread on the bed in a messy manner, Mu Yici pulled the big quilt and wrapped his body, with a little grievance in his eyes, and a little shyness on his face.

Emperor Zhao was sweating profusely, his hair was messy, he leaned on the pillow weakly, his gaze slowly swept over Mu Yici's butterfly-like eyelashes, her lips were as rosy as cherries, and finally landed on her exposed shoulders, and he couldn't help but breathe tightly. This white milk-like skin, even if the pearl on the pillow is not as bright as the complexion, it is really enough to seduce the soul.

"Xiao Ci, when I overthrow the Xue family and help you take revenge, I will give you a legitimate identity and make you a concubine. ”

Emperor Zhao's fiery gaze fixed on Mu Yici's charming eyes, and said emotionally.

Mu Yici frowned slightly, and when his eyes were looking forward to it, he looked a little charming, hesitated for a while, and said softly: "Thank you, Your Majesty." Since the slave and maid have followed you, they are your woman. But the slave maid was Xue Pingzhi's widow before, and she was afraid that she would bring shame on His Majesty. Thanks to His Majesty's love, this identity, slaves and maids don't want it. ”

After listening to Emperor Zhao, there seemed to be a clear stream flowing slowly in the depths of his heart, he gently hugged Mu Yici's body with his hand, and said in an extremely gentle voice: "This is my country, I can do what I want." I will promise you this identity. ”

......

On the second day, the sky was clear and cloudless.

The Taihe Hall was facing upwards early, Emperor Zhao was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, sitting on the dragon chair mightily and domineeringly, fading away from the past childishness and cowardice, Ling Ran overlooked a group of civil and military officials standing in front of the hall.

A group of hundreds of officials pretended to bow their shoulders and lower their eyebrows, looking left and right, but they couldn't help but be stunned when they didn't see Xue Gan's figure in the court.

"Zhong Aiqing, I have an important matter to announce today!"

Emperor Zhao on the dragon chair observed for a long time, the corners of his mouth smiled playfully, and his unspoken voice gently overflowed from his thin lips: "Take people!"

Outside the hall, Zhang Longbow, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy who was dressed in prison clothes, was brought in by two guards who were strong and stubborn, and knelt on the ground.

Emperor Zhao raised his eyebrows coldly, and asked in a deep voice: "Zhang Changgong, I ask you, why do you want to change the identity of the champion of this department? Do you know that this is the crime of bullying the king, and you should be punished by the nine clans." ”

Zhang Changgong knelt on the ground, after several days of torture to extract a confession, he was already covered in injuries, his face was pale, and he looked like he was dying. ”

"Oh, you said General Xue did all this?"

Emperor Zhao gently knocked on the dragon chair with his fingers, his face was solemn, and his eyes were like torches, as if he was deliberately suppressing his anger.

Zhang Changgong didn't dare to look up at Emperor Zhao, knelt on the ground respectfully, nodded again and again: "Holy Lord, if Weichen doesn't do what General Xue says, he will kill Weichen, Weichen was forced to be helpless, so he had to change the identity of Huang Yanchao according to his wishes. ”

When Emperor Zhao heard this, he slapped the dragon chair angrily, stood up angrily, and said with a brushing of his sleeves: "Hmph, in front of me, who dares to kill you, he is just a town general who dares to be so presumptuous, he simply doesn't take me in his eyes!"

Zhang Changgong was like grasping a life-saving straw, constantly crying, burying his head deeply, with a lot of snot and tears: "Shengshang, what Weichen said, everything is true, and please ask the Shengshang to be the master of Weichen!"

Emperor Zhao glanced at Zhang Longbow, retracted his gaze, dissipated his anger, and then sat down and said: "Although you are forced by Xue Pingzhi, how should you explain the 100,000 taels of gold found in your house? ”

"Holy Lord, spare your life, Wei Chen knows his mistakes, ask the Holy One to forgive Wei Chen. ”

Zhang Changgong's face turned blue, cold sweat broke out, and he desperately struggled with the drag of the two guards behind him, constantly begging Emperor Zhao to let him go.

"Wait!"

Emperor Zhao got up, walked in front of Zhang Changgong step by step, and smiled faintly.

Zhang Changgong gasped, knelt on the ground in vain, and kept opening his mouth to express his gratitude to Emperor Zhao. Just when the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were relieved, Emperor Zhao suddenly snatched the bright knife in the hand of a guard, held it with both hands, and cut it down.

A blood-covered head rolled in front of the hall, and it landed at the feet of Zheng Chong, the head of the household department, so frightened that his legs and feet were weak, and he fell directly to the ground, his scalp was numb, and he didn't know what to do.

Baiguan had an unbelievable expression on his face, and his heart was uneasy, all of them turned pale with fright, and knelt down in panic. Emperor Zhao, who was once cowardly and incompetent, was timid and fearful, but turned into a demon who killed people without blinking.

He cut off a longbow with his own hands, and a few drops of blood were splashed on Emperor Zhao's face, he indifferently stretched out his hand to wipe it away, and said majestically: "Pass on my order, immediately deprive Xue Pingzhi of the identity of the general of the town, and the prime minister will not report it, and take back half of the talisman." Wang You, hurry up and inform the prime minister, if you don't hand over the talisman, you will bear the consequences!"

"Yes!"

Wang You took the holy parable and left quickly.

For a while, the court was silent, lowered their heads, and looked at each other, trembling and frightened, and did not dare to come out.

Emperor Zhao threw the knife, shook the wide dragon sleeves, walked up to the dragon chair and sat down, as if nothing had happened, raised his hand slightly and said, "Zhong Aiqing is flat!"

Zheng Chong recovered from the fright, relieved his breath again, stepped forward and bowed and said: "Holy Lord, this matter must not be allowed, Prime Minister Xue has done his best for Chen Guo, and his hard work is high, if you deprive him of his military talisman, I am afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction among the people of Dawn! Please also think twice." ”

"Please think twice. ”

"Please take back your ordination. ”

......

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty knelt down one after another and seconded Zheng Chong's words. Emperor Zhao looked down and saw that more than half of them were interceding for Xue Gan, and he couldn't help but show embarrassment on his face, and asked: "But I have ordered the prince to go and inform the prime minister, I am afraid that I have already left the palace at this time, according to the advice of all Aiqing, what should I do?"

Zheng Chong thought for a moment, and said, "The Holy One can order someone to go and stop it and take back his fate!"

For a while, the ministers who pleaded for Xue Gan all nodded in agreement.

"In that case, then I have to work hard for all the Aiqing who intercede for the Prime Minister, but before that, I have one more thing for all Aiqing to look at first. ”

Emperor Zhao motioned to Gonggong Chen beside him, Gonggong Chen took the order, opened a black brocade box that had been carrying a black brocade box in his hand, Emperor Zhao had a faint smile on his face, and continued: "Xue Pingzhi led 100,000 soldiers on the border of the town, all of whom died in Wuyi City. All Aiqing have heard that the army of 100,000 was destroyed by two masters, and you may just think it is nonsense. You don't joke, I tell you, it's just two people, who wiped out the 100,000 townside army of my Chen country. And all this is because of the death enmity with Xue Pingzhi, even if Xue Pingzhi died hundreds of times, it was not enough to atone. Today, what I want to show you Aiqing is what these two people left behind. ”

Gonggong Chen had already taken out the contents of the brocade box and slowly spread them out in front of the civil and military officials in the court. A cold wind emanated from the spread out human blood battle flag, blowing across the faces of every official in the court, and they all felt a chill in their hearts and a chill down their spines.

The line of scarlet blood words on the battle flag is so dazzling and dazzling.

Zheng Chong and the others were unrelenting, and when they caught a glimpse of the blood words on the flag, they hurriedly knelt on the ground again, sweating coldly, they knew very well what this sentence meant.

The corners of Emperor Zhao's mouth hooked up a smile, and he said jokingly: "Since you have all seen it, who will tell me, what do you mean by this?"

Zheng Chong trembled all over, kneeling on the ground, his face cloudy. All the officials, you look at me, I look at you, they are all silent, I don't know what to do.

After a while, seeing that no one answered Emperor Zhao's words, Zheng Chong had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "The Holy Lord is angry, according to what Weichen has seen, this is the murderer's plan to sow discord." Over the years, the prime minister has fulfilled his duties for the country and the people, and has no two hearts. In addition, when Chen Guo was in danger, it was the Prime Minister who personally helped the community, so that the precarious Chen Guode was no longer annexed by other countries. Holy Saint, please don't listen to rumors, and give justice to the prime minister. ”

"Holy Lord, what Lord Shangshu said is extremely true. The prime minister is the hero of our Chen country, with him, my Chen country has been safe and sound for ten years, this must be a conspiracy of other countries, and please ask the Holy God to investigate. ”

......

As soon as Zheng Chong's words came out, the hundreds of officials kneeling on the ground all nodded in agreement, pushing this battle flag to the cusp of the struggle between dynasties.

Emperor Zhao patiently listened to the ministers' words with a dignified look, disgusted in his heart, but he didn't like it, and said softly: "What you Aiqing said makes sense, for the sake of Chen Guo's safety, this matter will be stopped." Please also ask the Aiqing who pleaded for the prime minister just now, please turn around and quickly chase back my princess, and never let the enemy country have a chance to take advantage of it!"

Zheng Chong and the others knelt on the ground, and their hearts couldn't help but "chuckle", their faces were embarrassed, and they refused to get up. They all knew that this was Emperor Zhao's intention to embarrass them.

Emperor Zhao observed everyone's faces, and asked gloomily at the right time: "Don't you listen to what I say, or do you really want to go against me?"

"Weichen takes the order!"

Zheng Chong and the others saw that something was wrong, so they had to bow down and take the order to withdraw from the hall, and Emperor Zhao's cold words sounded in their ears again: "Run for me, you can't run to Xue Mansion, I let you can't eat and go around." ”

For a while, in the palace, there were hundreds of ministers in a panic, striding with their shirts and panting, and they didn't dare to stop rushing to the Xue Mansion for a moment.

"Holy Might!"

In the middle of the court, the remaining small number of ministers were in a surging mood, with tears in their eyes, and knelt respectfully under Emperor Zhao.

"Okay, all Aiqing are my henchmen, and my Chen Kingdom depends on you. Xue Qian's wolf ambition is obvious, and I must let him be ruined. ”

......

Today's Liang Jing, there is an extremely incomprehensible scene.

On the spacious street, a group of high-ranking ministers carried official robes and ran in the direction of Xue Mansion out of breath. People stopped to watch, and they were all surprised, thinking that in the history of Chen Guo in the hundreds of years since its establishment, there had never been such a ridiculous and funny thing.

Some of the guards deliberately arranged by Emperor Zhao put on the clothes of the common people and hyped up the flag in the crowd. For a time, the matter of Xue Gan's rebellion became a topic of gossip and whispering in the streets and alleys.

At the same time, Wang You led his troops straight to the Xue Mansion, and the Xue Mansion with a long halberd was impassable inside and out.

Xue Hai informed Xue Gan, who was having breakfast, that Xue Gan was furious, dropped the bowl in his hand, and walked out of Xue's mansion with his sleeves. And Wang You had been waiting outside the mansion for a long time, and when he saw Xue Gan, he said with a smile: "Prime Minister, don't come unharmed." ”

Xue Qian's chin trembled with anger, and he asked with a bad face: "Why did the prince lead his troops to surround my Xue family?"

Wang You bowed down and said: "The Holy Lord has ordered our family to spread the word, about the death of General Xue Pingzhi has been investigated, and I have come to inform the Prime Minister." ”

When Xue Qian heard this, his face softened slightly, he didn't know what happened today, and asked strangely, "Could it be that the Holy Lord has already caught the murderer?"

"The murderer was not caught!"

Wang Youpi said with a smile: "However, the Holy Lord found out that General Xue caused the tragic death of all the 100,000 troops guarding the border in my Chen State because of his own selfish desires, this crime is unforgivable, and the disaster will affect the entire Xue family, but the Holy Lord Nian Prime Minister has made great achievements, just depriving Xue Pingzhi of the identity of the general of the town, and letting you hand over half of the soldiers in your hand, and all the things are not to blame." ”

But Xue Gan, who heard this, exuded a compelling chill all over his body, and said disdainfully: "The old man has made great contributions to the saint over the years, and this time he actually wants to deprive the old man of the talisman in his hand. The saint didn't want to track down the murderer and said directly, why do you want my son to make a mistake to threaten the old man, the old man never eats this set. Princess, go back and tell the Holy Lord that the old man will not hand over this talisman, unless he can bring the murderer of my son to the old man. ”

Wang You smiled sadly: "Our family is just acting on orders, and the Prime Minister will really embarrass our family...... If the prime minister really doesn't give it, our family can only bring this group of careless guards to search your house to the bottom. Everyone listen to the order, search for us!"

"Bold!"

Xue Gan made a big move, and several powerful figures rushed out of the mansion, blocking in front of the Xue Mansion without any cover.

Wang You raised his hand to stop the guards who were moving behind, looked solemnly at the sharp faces behind Xue Gan, and said to Xue Gan in a deep voice: "I can't imagine that the master around the prime minister is like a cloud, it's really not simple." ”

Xue Qian took his hand and said coldly: "Father-in-law, the old man's words have been made clear, if you dare to lead someone to break into my Xue Mansion, the old man will let you die without a place to be buried." If you know each other, you will leave and bring the old man's words to the saint, and the old man will be as if nothing had happened. ”

"Haha!"

Wang You laughed loudly and said meaningfully: "I'm afraid the Prime Minister has already planned it, right?"

Xue Gan's eyes froze, staring at Wang You, and said sharply: "My Xue family can't afford to buckle this hat......"

"Prime Minister Xue, Princess, don't be angry. ”

Xue Gan hadn't finished speaking, but when he saw three or two generals running in the distance, he gasped and said loudly: "The Holy Order, let the prince take back your life!"

With the arrival of these generals, a group of ministers came scattered behind, and they didn't care if the ground was dirty or not, and sat on the ground with a black gauze hat, gasping for breath, and their bodies were already sweating profusely.

The corners of Wang You's mouth rose slightly, but there was no expression on his face, and he asked out loud, "What are you doing here?"

Zheng Chong couldn't get in there, his face was pale, the corners of his mouth were chapped, he didn't care about wiping his sweat, and he stopped in front of Wang You and said: "The Holy Lord ordered me to come and inform you later, this matter is a disaster for another country, the Holy One has not considered it a little, and has taken back his fate, so my father-in-law doesn't have to worry about it, I can just go back and resume my life." ”

"Oh, since the saint has given an order, then let's go back to restore our lives, Prime Minister, I'm sorry to disturb you, where the official office is, please forgive me, bear with me. ”

Wang You bowed to Xue Qian with a sincere face.

Xue Gan was quite proud in his heart, and said with a straight face: "Wang You, when you go back, tell the Holy Lord that the talisman can be handed over, but the old man must see the murderer of my son." In addition, let Mu Yici back to the old man, otherwise, the old man will personally lead the troops to ask for people!"

Wang You raised his head and stared at Xue Gan deadly, his face hesitated for a moment, as if he was a little embarrassed, and opened his mouth before he said, "Our family is here, and there is indeed this matter to tell the Prime Minister." After being interrogated last night, Mu Yici admitted that he was the mastermind behind the killing of General Xue Pingzhi...... By the way, the Prime Minister seems to be a little puzzled, whether the child is General Xue's, our family has already helped you interrogate clearly, the child is indeed General Xue's. But General Xue can't die in vain, the saint remembered that he was pregnant with the flesh and blood of the Xue family, and did not give it to death, but was imprisoned in the depths of the prison, and only waited for the child to be born, so as to avenge General Xue. You can rest assured, as for the two culprits who killed General Xue with their own hands, the Holy Lord has already found traces, and the Chen Gong Guild will personally arrest them. ”

When Xue Qian heard this, his face was gloomy, and he reprimanded angrily: "Hmph! Mu Yici is an old husband and daughter-in-law, so you don't need to make a decision from the saint, please go back and inform the saint quickly." ”

"Don't worry, our family will definitely bring the words, Prime Minister, there will be a period later. ”

Wang You's dark face always has a faint smile, but no matter how you look at it, this smile is a little weird.

With a wave of his hand, he collected his troops and returned to the palace.

Zheng Chong looked at Wang You and walked away, came to Xue Gan's side, and told everything that happened this morning, but Xue Qian didn't take it to heart, and led the hundreds of officials who came one after another into the hall, everyone gathered together, frowning, but Xue Gan in the hall slapped the table with his big hand, and said upsetly: "Now, my son is dead, and the saint is fanfare and aggressive, friends, what should the old man do?"

Zheng Chong got up and said: "As far as I can see, the saint is acting like this, trying to embarrass the prime minister, I am afraid that you want to seize the military power and not give you a way for the Xue family to live." Prime Minister Xue has made countless contributions to Chen Guo's saddle over the years. Unexpectedly, the saint was narrow-minded, stubborn and prejudiced, and he was bent on putting the Xue family to death without hesitation, and he was a person who fought for the basket. Everyone is from the imperial court, how can they watch the Xue family suffer such injustice and become the next target of the saint?"

The ministers whispered, Xue Qian stood up judging the situation, and sighed: "Such an old man's daughter-in-law is pregnant with the only descendant of my Xue family, but she was also arrested and locked up by the saint. This is deliberately making my Xue family desperate. ”

"Yes, the prime minister is right! The saint is unfair, how can he be convinced?"

"Such a saint, Chen Guo will be destroyed on him sooner or later. I feel that if I don't worry about the mistakes of the past, Chen Guo will inevitably repeat the mistakes of the past, and then the water will be in dire straits, and it will be thousands of people who will suffer. ”

"The saint is narrow-minded, I don't want to be the next target to be suppressed, Prime Minister, the safety of Chen Guo still depends on you, no matter what you do, I also support you. ”

"Chen Guo doesn't need such a faint king, we should unite and unite as one. ”

......

On the side, several ministers who married the Xue family all raised the case with an angry face. One person called, everyone responded, and more and more people stood up angrily and supported Xue Gan in the upper position.

Xue Qian knew that he couldn't agree too happily, so he played on the spot, lowered his head gloomily, a look of reluctance appeared on his face, thought about it, raised his head solemnly, glanced at the court officials in the hall one by one, shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it's not good, if you are arbitrarily labeled as a traitor by the saint, it will be unreasonable." The old man's business, the old man bears it alone, and he can't put everyone at a disadvantage, thank you for your kindness. ”

Zheng Chong immediately added fuel to the fire and said: "The Prime Minister is too worried, we are doing this, not only to seek justice for the Prime Minister, but also for ourselves." We are all old and frail, and the saint doesn't treat us as human beings, so we run from the palace to the Xue Mansion. It is not difficult to see that the Holy One does not treat us as human beings at all. ”

"Alas, the Holy Elder is young and frivolous, and it is really chilling for the old man to treat you like this...... All this was caused by the old man, I'm sorry everyone. ”

Xue Qian sighed, with a sincere expression, and slowly bowed to the ministers, looking dejected. But he knew that there were no more than three things, so he gave Zheng Chong a look, sat on the chair, and was silent for a while.

"Oh no, sir!"

Xue Hai rushed in in a panic, his face was ugly, and he exclaimed: "The uproar on the street says that you want to seek power and usurp the throne!"

"What?"

Xue Gan's face changed greatly, he clenched his fists tightly, trembling with anger, and roared angrily: "Shengshang, he actually bit the old man back, and he was angry with the old man!"

Xue Gan suddenly felt a pain in his heart, leaned on the chair, and almost fell.

"Prime Minister calm his anger, take care of your body!"

Zheng Chong and the others immediately stepped forward to support Xue Gan, but Xue Gan's face was already red, he was angry, spit out a mouthful of blood, sat on the chair weakly, barely squeezed out a smile, and said sadly: "The saint slandered the old man so much, the old man is really embarrassed, everyone, the old man can't swallow this breath, he must ask for justice!"

"Prime Minister, we fully support you!"

......

The ministers were filled with righteous indignation, and a grandiose conspiracy was quietly discussed in the lifeless Xue Mansion.

In front of the gate of the palace, Wei Bugui, who was dressed in a Taoist robe, took out the token given by Emperor Zhao, forcibly concealed his inner worries, and walked towards the palace.

Today, when I heard about the battle flag on the street, my heart was already turbulent, and I was so frightened that I broke out in a cold sweat, and I had to hurry to the palace to meet Emperor Zhao.

Outside the Wude Palace, Wei Bugui paced left and right, anxiously waiting for the eunuch's message, and waited for about a cup of tea, and a eunuch brought him into the hall. Wei Bugui, who was already absent-minded, was already sweating on his forehead at this time, and he didn't know how to explain the flag to Emperor Zhao, nor how to persuade Emperor Zhao to let Mu Yici go. But when he walked into the hall, he couldn't help but shrink his pupils, and his face was full of incredulity.

Mu Yici sat next to Emperor Zhao, the whole person was radiant, graceful and luxurious, which was imprisoned in the prison as rumored.

Seeing Wei Bugui coming in, Emperor Zhao personally stepped forward, invited Wei Bugui to sit down, and said with an eager smile: "If it weren't for Xiaoci telling me, I would have thought that the Daoist Master of No Return had surrendered to Xue Gan!"

Wei Bugui was extremely surprised, and inadvertently glanced at Mu Yici, Mu Yici nodded lightly, and shook it with the gold and silver jewelry on his head, emitting a dazzling light.

Mu Yici's eyes were like beads, and he said softly according to Emperor Zhao: "Don't return to the Daoist, Yi Ci has already informed Your Majesty about your matter, I don't know what good news you have brought to Your Majesty?"

"Your Majesty?"

Wei Bugui muttered, but he didn't feel a big shock in his heart, and hurriedly arched his hand: "Holy Lord, the old man has been in the Xue family for a few days, and he has been plotting rebellion recently. In addition, there are twelve powerful people in his mansion, all of whom are great sect masters from all over the Chen Kingdom, and their strength is not below me. ”

"Twelve, I want to see what big waves they can turn over. ”

Emperor Zhao's face showed a hint of solemnity, but it melted like ice in the blink of an eye.

Mu Yici stood up, gently grabbed Emperor Zhao's body, and said slightly: "If you don't return to the Daoist, I have to trouble you to drag Xue Gan, go to the frontier, inform Wu Guohua, and place the remnants of the army in Xue Gan's army. ”

Emperor Zhao got up and paced a few steps, then looked back gratefully and said, "No Return Daoist, as long as you help me keep this world, you are the benefactor of Chen Guo and my benefactor!"

Wei Bugui observed the words, nodded solemnly and said: "The saint's words are serious, over the years, I have returned to the cloud Taoist temple to receive the gift of the saint, the old man has always been grateful, and he will live up to your high expectations, the Xue family wants to rebel, and they have to ask the 100,000 townside army that was harmed by Xue Pingzhi's pit if they agree." ”

"Haha. Well, I'm waiting for your good news right here. ”

Emperor Zhao was very happy, and the good news had been coming one after another recently, just like a dream, which made him a little unbelievable.

Wei Bugui received the order and said: "Time can't be delayed, the old man will leave immediately, saint, the old man has retired!"

"Wait, I have already written the holy decree to canonize Wu Guohua as the general of the town, you take it with you, don't make a mistake!"

Emperor Zhao turned around and picked up the holy decree from the table, handed it to Wei Bugui, Wei Bugui bowed down to accept it, glanced at Mu Yici, and turned to leave.

Mu Yici stepped forward, avoided Emperor Zhao's eyes, and said: "Daoist Chief, please bury the little girl's father when you pass by Wuyi City, and you must remember Yi Ci's words!"

"The old man will definitely do it!"

Wei Bugui, who turned around and walked out of the Wude Palace, showed a suspicious look on his face, the body of Mu Yici's father Mu Xunyuan had already been buried, why did she say this.

Must remember Yi Ci's words?

Wei Bugui shook his head, this Mu Yici only took one night to play with Emperor Zhao in the palm of his hand, this woman's scheming is not deep.

Wei Bugui only felt that he was lucky in his heart, but fortunately, everything was being implemented according to Mu Yici's plan, and there was no mistake.

Back in the Xue Mansion, Wei Bugui said in front of Xue Gan that Emperor Zhao intended to win him over, and deliberately said Emperor Zhao's attitude towards the Xue family, which made all the officials present angry.

Xue Qian was not angry and arrogant, sat on the top indifferently, and said his thoughts, and a seemingly "fair" rebellion conspiracy continued to ferment among everyone.

On that day, the crowd dispersed, and Wei Bugui rode north with the high hopes of Emperor Zhao and Xue Gan.

At night, everyone in the Xue family dressed up and quietly left Liang Jing, leaving only the maid Ding Hou to perform their duties in the Xue Mansion to avoid the eyes and ears of Emperor Zhao. As for Zheng Chong and the others, they were also united, waiting for Xue Gan's order, seemingly as if nothing had happened, but in fact, they had already planned how to prepare for Xue Gan's army from the capital.

However, due to the fact that they only had half of the talismans in their hands, Xue Qian and Emperor Zhao were able to mobilize very few troops, and there was no other way except for their cronies. In addition, the neighboring countries on all sides are eyeing each other, and if all the troops are mobilized, it will only put the entire Chen country at a disadvantage.

Therefore, Xue Pingzhi's remaining 60,000 troops are undoubtedly a sharp blade that determines the odds of victory, Xue Gan and Emperor Zhao have their own scheming, they think that these 60,000 remnants of the army are their own army, but they don't want to, and there are third-party forces involved.

Liang Jingcheng on the bright side presents a harmonious appearance, but in fact, the dark tide is surging, and the bird's nest curtain is full of dangers.

And Mu Yici, the party who contributed to all this, was admiring the delicate flowers in the imperial garden at the moment, and the lights hung on her pretty face, reflecting a charming smile.

In a dark room in the Wude Palace, Emperor Zhao and Gonggong Chen sat left and right, with a pot of jade tea on the case, steaming wisps. Gonggong Chen held the tea cup in the bowl at the bottom of the jade wall, gently filtered the tea leaves with the lid, took a sip slightly, and said slowly: "God, you want to make that woman a concubine, the old slave has no opinion." But Guiyun Er Lao has always maintained neutrality, and he is good friends with the Xue family, and he is also good friends with our Chen family, but because of this woman to help my Chen family, don't you think it's strange, there must be some hidden secrets, this woman is by no means as simple as it seems on the surface, you have to pay attention. ”

Emperor Zhao smiled and said disapprerovingly: "Xiao Ci has already told me everything, Wei Bugui's life was saved by Xiao Ci, and it is a good thing to be able to help our Xue family." Grandpa, you can relax, Xiao Ci and Xue Qian are enemies, and it is impossible to be unfavorable to me!"

Gonggong Chen shook his head, glanced at Emperor Zhao, and said earnestly: "Red face and troubled water." This was said by a mysterious person himself, you must be careful, the world of the Chen family cannot be destroyed because of you. ”

"Xiao Ci is indeed a little too smart. ”

Emperor Zhao stood up and sighed faintly, not knowing how much he was thinking.

On the second day, the morning was up. Emperor Zhao sat solemnly on the dragon chair, indifferently glanced at the people in front of him, but did not see Xue Gan's figure, Emperor Zhao straightened his face, and asked: "Who told me, why didn't Xue Aiqing come to the court?"

The civil and military officials in front of the court looked at each other and whispered, most of them knew it, but they all shook their heads and said they didn't know. Zheng Chong walked out, bowed down and said, "Holy Lord, Prime Minister Xue is in poor health and can't go to court, please also ask the Holy Lord Mingjian." ”

Emperor Zhao's eyes condensed into a point, and he said solemnly: "Zheng Aiqing, you should tell me, what disease Xue Aiqing is suffering from?"

Zheng Chong had already thought of the wording, and said with his hand: "The Prime Minister heard about the rumors of seeking power and usurping the throne yesterday, and when he vomited a mouthful of blood, he fell to the ground, passed out, and couldn't wake up for a long time, and the quacks were helpless. This matter was seen by the ministers and the adults, and there should be no falsehood. ”

Emperor Zhao was amused in his heart, but he sighed softly and lamented: "I haven't caught the murderer yet, Xue Aiqing can't just leave." Spread my order to summon the best imperial doctor in the palace to cure Xue Aiqing's illness. ”

Zheng Chong immediately said: "Holy Lord, if there is a long history of non-return, the Prime Minister's illness will definitely be cured, so you don't have to worry." ”

Emperor Zhao's face was cold, he slapped his chair and scolded: "Oh, you mean that I have a lot of trouble?" Zheng Chong, Zheng Chong, you are so bold, come on, pull me out, cane ten!"

One of the old ministers stood up with his sleeves brushed up, knelt on the ground, and said righteously: "Holy Lord, how can you serve the people if you act indiscriminately and act like this!"

The words were amazing, and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty all showed surprised eyes, this person dared to contradict Emperor Zhao.

But surprisingly, most of the people in the court knelt down in agreement.

It's all the same people from yesterday.

Emperor Zhao's eyes were blazing, and he scolded angrily: "It seems that Xue Qian poured some ecstasy on you, and I pulled it down......"

Gonggong Chen hurriedly leaned down, leaned into Emperor Zhao's ear, and whispered to stop: "Holy Lord, it's almost there." ”

Emperor Zhao lowered his head and thought about it, calmed down his anger, waved his hand and walked off the stage, and said with an unwilling face: "That's it, I'm too worried, scatter the dynasty." ”

Zheng Chong and the others wiped the sweat from their faces, slowly got up, nodded to each other, and a meaningful smile appeared on their faces. They all thought that Emperor Zhao was together, who would have thought that all this was done intentionally by Emperor Zhao.

The morning dynasty dispersed. Behind the screen, countless black-clothed guards knelt in front of Emperor Zhao and told him about the Xue family's disguised trip out of the city last night.

"Closely investigate Zheng Chong's every move, report to me at any time, remember, don't startle the snake. ”

Emperor Zhao strode away with his hands in his hands.

Gonggong Chen followed behind, with a smile on his face, and said softly: "Holy Lord, I have already sent someone to find out the whereabouts of those two people. ”

Emperor Zhao stopped, turned his head curiously and asked, "Where are they, and it would be great if they could be used by me." ”

"Don't worry, the saint has to let the old slave personally ask the mysterious person about this matter. ”

......

Laifu Inn, like a city, is very lively.

In the Tianzi room on the second floor, Jian Yi sat indifferently at the table, wiping the sword body with a cloth, while enjoying the prosperous scenery of Liangjing City outside the window, the sword in his hand, under the sunlight thrown in, emitted a dazzling light.

"Lingbao, it's really a good sword!"

A light breeze swept by, and the figure of Gonggong Chen had fallen in front of the window, he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, and immediately arched his hand and said: "Your Excellency, the person you are looking for, the old slave has been found." They are on their way to Liangjing, and they will arrive at Liangjing in less than a day. ”

"Oh?"

Jian Yi was quite surprised, and stopped what he was doing, no wonder he couldn't find Li Wangchen, it turned out that he hadn't arrived at Liang Jing yet.

"Your Excellency, the Xue family has already made some moves, and I will ask you to help you when the time comes, the old slave is grateful!"

Chen Gonggong saluted respectfully.

The sword nodded slightly, put the sword on the table, raised his head lightly, and said slowly: "This matter is caused by Li Wuchen, since he wants to come to Liangdu, everything will be handled by him." ”

Gonggong Chen was stunned and asked suspiciously, "The old slave doesn't know what Your Excellency means. ”

Jian Yi looked at a floating white cloud in the sky, gently removed the hat on his head, and his long golden hair rose like waves in the sun, piercing people's eyes. With his back to Gonggong Chen, he said slowly: "You go back, you don't need to prepare anything, since I promised you, I will do it." “

Gonggong Chen couldn't help but raise his head and take a look at this slender and straight figure, with an extremely shocking color in his eyes.

His voice was ethereal like the chanting of a lark, tactful and pleasant, like a spring breeze blowing from his ears, like a clear spring flowing through his heart, which was very refreshing.
