The sky is almost dark, and the Tianzi Palace is already lit with lights.

"Lord Wang...... If it is accepted as a royal enterprise, it will pay more than 100,000 taels of taxes per month, and the monthly net profit of the Liuhe Tong family can only reach this amount, you see......"

In the palace, the minister turned the text and the government, but he held the detailed scriptures and looked at the sitting King Wen.

"Well, the tax can be even...... Those who can work hard......"

King Wen seemed to be thinking about it, but simply answered.

"But...... This is not in accordance with the laws of the Ming Dynasty......"

The law?

King Wen narrowed Danfeng's eyes, but he glanced at the minister. Suddenly made him shudder, as if he had the power of life and death.

Today's prince seems to be a little different.

The atmosphere became a little cold, and the minister did not know what to say, but he was uneasy.

Suddenly, a eunuch entered the palace and knelt down as usual: "Lord Wang, the county lord and Lord Xu ask to see ......."

King Wen raised his eyebrows, and a strange look appeared on his face like a crown of jade: "Let them in." ”

"Yes. The eunuch retreated to greet the people, and King Wen also asked the minister to retreat.

If the minister was granted amnesty, he only hurriedly bowed back, saluted, and hurried out.

Zhu Ying entered the palace, followed by Azu, two young girls and figures, but they were fearless, as if they were menacing, facing the King Wen above the high hall.

"Sakura...... Why do you seek me...... As I said, in the midst of this long forest, you must perform the royal rites. ”

King Wen seemed to ignore the young man behind him, but he was right to Zhu Ying and asked slowly.

Zhu Ying looked at the ancient well Wubo's face, which was the person she had been calling her father and father for thirteen years.

"I want to know who my mother is. ”

A trace of astonishment flashed in King Wen's eyes, he thought that Azu had found Zhu Ying, to talk about the Tong family or to rebel against Yunyun, but he didn't expect Zhu Ying to say such a thing.

"Your mother died in childbirth, I told you about this, every year for that small sacrifice, we also went to the Nanshui Mausoleum to pay respects......"

"But you won't even tell me her name. Zhu Ying looked directly at King Wen, and the firmness in his eyes was something he had never seen before, as if he was a man with a fearless face.

"I have a bad fate with your mother, I met in Pingshui, and I didn't want to give birth to you, and I don't know her name. Therefore, the tombstone in the Nanshui Mausoleum is not engraved with her name......"

"I don't believe it, it's just that Pingshui meets, how can I not even know my name, she gave birth to me for you, don't you even want to say your name?"

The words were sonorous, in the past thirteen years, Zhu Ying had never questioned her father, and today, she finally questioned King Wen for the first time.

King Wen didn't answer, he saw something in Zhu Ying's eyes that he had never seen before, it was alienation.

After a long time, he finally let out a long sigh, but then said, "That's it, it's okay to tell you...... Thou art my adopted child, and I have no wife, and thy mother is ......."

Before she finished speaking, Zhu Ying was already in a deep voice: "So far, you still want to lie to me?"

"You are not my biological father, my biological father is an uncle, and my biological mother is his wife, Yin Zhu!"

The hoarse voice was high-pitched, and there was an echo in this Tianzi Palace, which shook people's ears a little painfully. But Azu watched from the sidelines and never spoke.

After being silent for a long time, King Wen finally glanced at the young man: "You told her?"

Azu nodded: "Yes." ”

"Where did you know that?"

"Takeju ......"

"Bamboo House...... Hahaha......" King Wen suddenly laughed. "I never thought that the eldest brother would confide in a child who met in Pingshui......"

Azu shook his head: "Coming out of the bamboo house, I just had some guesses, and when I came out of the Nanshui Mausoleum, I felt that this matter was inseparable from ......."

"You're the ...... person"

King Wen's eyes showed a gleam, but he said. He has always been suspicious of Azu, and he doesn't want it to come true!

Azu was completely fearless, but nodded: "It's me." ”

"You're not afraid I'll kill you?"

"You can't dare me, kill me, the deer god's plan will be aborted, and your rebellion plan will fail. ”

The young man looked directly at King Wen, and before he knew it, a child in this area was already on an equal footing with the powerful King Wen.

"This is your bargaining chip, do you think that with the identity of this deer god, you can stop me?"

King Wen stared at Azu, as if he was angry.

The young man's face was fearless, and he was still unhurried: "The reason why I dare to come is because Zhu Ying ......"

"By a niece?"

"Because she is the daughter of King Yan, you won't move......"

Azu is like a chess player who strategizes, playing against King Nawen in this palace, and the two are silent for a long time.

"Sure enough, it's a real dragon...... King Wen finally softened his expression, and he looked indifferent. "When Tong Cheng'an sent it, I only wanted you to be skilled. Seeing your peerless qualifications, I also thought you were just my pawn...... Today, it seems that you already know my whole plan......"

Azu shook his head: "I don't know the specific plan, but you will tell me everything." ”

"Huh...... It's also good...... I have to let you know after all......"

There was finally a hint of softness in King Wen's eyes, which was not hypocrisy, but the deepest emotion in the human heart.

"The root of everything...... It's all from a book......"

My thoughts drifted, but I returned to the deep winter of thirty years ago......

"Thirty years ago...... The queen died in childbirth, leaving only one son, named Zhu Ye...... The royal family is barren in blood, and Emperor Wu has only accepted a few new concubines......"

"In the past ten years, he has given birth to nine sons and two daughters, and Emperor Wu is already dying...... The successive emperors of the Ming Dynasty were not allowed to live long...... Emperor Wu felt that this was a curse, and he was also dying......"

"He was only half a hundred at that time, but he was already extremely old...... He didn't want to die, so he searched all over Daming to find a way to prolong his life......"

"He has no interest in politics, because he feels that it is politics that deprives him of his longevity...... What a panacea, a strange remedy. , even human blood, he tried, but to no avail, and the speed of aging could not be alleviated......"

He went to look for the ageless Danqing, but he couldn't find it...... He went to explore the immortal elixir of Qin Shi Huang, and all he found was the wasteland in the bronze tripod......"

Finally, he was dying, bedridden, and he had no strength to make a will...... The whole country mourns, and then it is time to prepare for the enthronement of the eldest brother......"

"But then...... But a mysterious person appeared......"

"No one knows his name, and no one knows where he comes from, he just appeared in Changlin silently, all the way to Emperor Wu, and no one could stop him. He asked Emperor Wu if he wanted to live......"

"Emperor Wu didn't know the origin of this person, but he had done whatever it took to seize the hope of life...... So after agreeing to something, the man gave him an ancient book......"

"I just knew that book existed, but I never saw it with my own eyes...... And that person is nowhere to be found......"

"Emperor Wu was fascinated, and he regarded this book as a treasure...... There seems to be some great secret or secret method recorded in this book, and he really slowed down aging and stood up from the top of the sick bed......"

"He no longer participates in the government affairs, and the daily routine of the early dynasty is run by the six ministries...... He built a Bagua Ding and a stargazing platform in the long forest, and he just fiddled with the left path every day......"

Before he knew it, he was no longer the emperor...... He put on his robe, took the dust, and wandered around in the long forest, as if looking for something...... Gradually, he ran out of Yingtian, ran out of Jiangnan, and finally wandered among the mountains and rivers around the world, and no one could find him again......"

"When he was last found three years ago, he was insane, and he had his last breath left. After writing the edict, it is the death of the ......"

King Wen seemed to be telling a mythical story, but in his eyes, there was no sadness or sadness, as if Emperor Nawu had nothing to do with him.

Zhu Ying's eyes were just clear, listening to King Wen's narration, and Azu had already concluded in his heart that the book must have been read by King Yan...... Qimen Dunjia, Tianpan!

However, what does this have to do with King Wen's rebellion......

King Wen seemed to see the doubts of the two, and continued.

"Emperor Wu was bent on his own life and death, and he had no intention of going to government, and he didn't even care much about family affection...... At that time, the eldest brother was dedicated to politics for the sake of national stability, and he devoted himself to practical work......"

"Although the eldest brother has a wife, he has no time to be warm...... Dongying is the eldest brother who sent people to establish diplomatic relations, and the Western Regions is the eldest brother who sent generals to settle down...... He has already realized that he is the eldest prince, and he is already ready to take over the throne......"

When the Ming Dynasty is stable, he can come back and linger with his wife for a while, when he is twenty-three years old...... The dignified King of Yan married a wife at the age of twenty, and when he was twenty-three years old, he had no heirs......"

When it was time for him to be happy, the mysterious man appeared...... Emperor Wu extended his life, and the matter of ascending the throne was naturally postponed ......"

"But for some reason, although Emperor Wu was indifferent to family affection, he suddenly cared for the mediocre second son, and even proposed to let the second brother ascend the throne more than once...... Although the eldest brother was angry, he didn't think much about it, after all, the law of the Ming Dynasty cannot be changed by empty words. ”

"Until that night...... Blood stained Changlin red, and more than 200 people in the Yanwang Palace were wiped out, leaving only the eldest brother, and even his wife, Yin Zhu, was not spared......"

"It was pouring rain that night...... All this killing took place in the sound of rain, and none of the guards could detect it...... It wasn't until the eldest brother came to me in the rain that I saw the baby in the swaddling clothes......"

"That's you, you were just born that day...... King Wen's voice seemed to sigh, but he looked at Zhu Ying, whose eyes were full of tears.

"Big brother asked me to recognize you as a daughter, and treat you as my own, no matter in front of anyone, I must not tell the secret that you are the daughter of King Yan...... I looked at the big brother covered in blood, and naturally I knew that if it was exposed, you were afraid that you would be killed......"

"So I declared to the outside world that you were my own daughter, and that your birth mother had died in childbirth...... And the eldest brother returned to the bloody field in the rain......"

"But how can things be so simple? No one has found out about the slaughter in the Yan Palace, but there are several people in the royal family who have joined hands with the eldest brother to participate in Longyang, and they can't take over the throne......"

"I know your existence, this is obviously a naked frame-up, but I can't stand up and defend my eldest brother, because I can't expose your existence...... The eldest brother never refuted, and even made the name of Longyang sit firmly......"

"Emperor Wu didn't believe him, the queen didn't believe him, and even his brothers didn't believe him. The eldest brother was divided into the northland, but what taxes, silver, and food were there in the northland...... Although he is the king of Yan, he is just a gatekeeper......"

"Then Emperor Hao ascended the throne, which is something you know......"

"I don't know what the big brother has to say, but in my opinion...... Zhu Wu is not worthy of being an emperor, nor is he worthy of being a father...... That bullshit Emperor Hao is just a rooster and a dog thief...... This is a conspiratorial usurpation ......"

King Wen sighed, and there was no anger in those eyes, but sadness.

The quickest way to crush a person is to mercilessly slander those close to him.
