Volume 3 [The Mystery of Longquan] 221: King Wei and Concubine Jing seize power
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but exclaim: Ah?
After King Wei came in with a group of elite soldiers, he looked at everyone: That's right! I didn't expect you to remember me!
The minister who read the decree asked in surprise: "You, weren't you sent to the frontier?" Why did you disobey the order of the emperor and enter Beijing without permission?
Hehehehe, my father collapsed, if my eldest son does not come to inherit the throne, who else is qualified to inherit the throne?
You instigated Babu and Li Mi to launch a rebellion in an attempt to usurp the throne. Our emperor has already abolished your title of crown prince, and read that your mother, Concubine Guan, was loyal to the emperor during her lifetime, so he did not behead you. What qualifications do you have to pretend to be His Majesty's eldest son here?
The king of Wei scolded: What kind of thing are you? How dare you openly criticize this king here. Someone, arrest him.
The crown prince immediately stopped: "Imperial brother, Lord Situ is a veteran of the Three Dynasties, you can't arrest him!"
Hehe, you still know that if you call me a royal brother, I don't have to arrest him. But you murdered your father, and I, who is my brother, must teach you a lesson for my father!
When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince heard this, he was immediately stunned, and asked rhetorically: "What? You said that I was plotting to kill my father? You are the one who kills the king and seeks power, and you are the one who is rebellious! On the contrary, you are a thief shouting to catch a thief, what are your intentions?
Back then, it was Babu and Li Mi who forced the palace, in order to snatch the position of the crown prince, you repeatedly slandered your father, and I was sent to the border by my father, do you think I don't know?
Even if I point out your guilt in front of my father, it will be your mistake first. I'm just worried about my father, what's wrong with me?" the prince retorted.
King Wei was no longer in the mood to argue with them, and said impatiently: I am not here to quarrel with you. The father has retired, and the country cannot be left without a master for a day. I'm here to get back what belongs to me. Since someone has investigated and punished the father and emperor for being poisoned, then none of you people here can get out of the relationship. Arrest all the people here!
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince saw that King Wei was about to make a move, and hurriedly shouted: "Someone...... Someone who rebelled and sinned against the ......
King Wei laughed: Hahahaha, third brother, you better save the province! The guards outside have all been arrested by me.
He pointed to the people and said, "You old men, who are willing to help me ascend the throne, I will spare him from death today." I don't know how to lift...... There is only one dead end!
There was a commotion on the field, and everyone was talking about it, but I didn't expect that a few courtiers had already stood behind King Wei for the first time. The rest of the ministers saw that someone had already taken the lead, so in order to protect themselves, they had no choice but to stand against their will.
With a cup of tea, the camp has been clearly divided. Except for the dozen or so imperial doctors and Lord Situ who have been supporting the prince just now, the rest of the people have all taken refuge in King Wei. Perhaps in the eyes of those people, Long San is still a little boy, not as majestic as King Wei in all aspects.
One of the old imperial doctors scolded the group of wall grass: Lord Zhang, Lord Li, you can't fail the emperor! The emperor's edict just now made it clear that Yan Wang Long San is the crown prince!
At this time, the king of Wei also took out a holy decree and said to his subordinates: Go and destroy the edict in their hands, and arrest them all, and then publish the edict in my hand to the world.
Several of the Wei king's subordinates received the order, so they stepped forward one after another, preparing to arrest the prince and others.
When the prince saw that King Wei was so domineering, in order to protect the loyal ministers around him, he still stood up and stopped: You dare to be powerless against the prince......?
Wang'er?
At this time, a familiar voice came into the emperor's bedroom......
The third son of Long looked behind King Wei, and his mother was actually tied up by King Wei. He was so angry that his face turned red, and he said to King Wei: You forced fellow!
Where would King Wei listen to his arrangement, and gloated on the side and said: Third brother, you are still a little tender. Acquaintances are tied up, and I may let your mother and son live until the day I ascend the throne. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that your mother will survive today. Hehha......
Prince Long San obviously had no idea at this time, and just when he was hesitating and the six gods were without a master, Xingyun quietly said a whisper to the old minister Situ who had read the edict beside him.
Lord Situ immediately secretly handed the holy decree to Xingyun from behind him, and shouted to the dozen or so imperial doctors: The three princes are now gone, and it seems that King Wei is the true son of heaven. We're so old-eyed. The old ministers of the King of Wei were willing to abandon the darkness and turn to the light and support the King of Wei's accession to the throne.
King Wei beckoned happily when he saw it, and thought: Even Lord Situ has taken refuge in me, and this throne is nine out of ten.
The dozen or so imperial doctors never expected that elders like Situ would become grass on the wall. I couldn't help but say to him: Lord Situ, why are you so indistinguishable from wrong?
Lord Situ stood behind King Wei, and while King Wei was not paying attention, he squeezed his eyes at the imperial doctors, and hooked his five fingers restlessly under his sleeves......
Only then did those old ministers comprehend, hesitated for a moment and said: Since even Lord Situ has taken refuge in King Wei, it seems that we are really wrong......
More than a dozen imperial doctors looked at the faces of the three princes, and reluctantly followed Master Situ.
When the prince saw that there was no one around him except Xingyun, he sighed in his heart that the world was hot and cold. Even Lord Situ and other important ministers of the three dynasties have learned to see the wind and steer the rudder, who else in this world is worth trusting? That's it, I don't want the throne, but my mother must not have anything. Thinking of this, he was ready to compromise and begged King Wei to spare his mother......
Just as he was about to open his mouth, Nebula grabbed him, broke through the window railing, and escaped. She sprinkled medicine and fragrance along the way, ran ten miles outside the imperial city without breathing, and a whistle attracted the dragon rider, and took the prince to drive the dragon out of forty miles, and found a tea shed in the suburbs of Beijing before putting down Long San.
After a while, Xian'er took the eunuch who sent medicine to the emperor and came over smelling the fragrance......
She threw down the prisoner and said, "Sister, why did you come to this poor and remote place?" As she spoke, she picked up the teapot and shouted at the shopkeeper of the tea shed: "Little Er, add some tea!"
Xingyun said: They will definitely search for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, how can they be safe if they don't run away? He is an entourage of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in trouble, he will definitely be implicated. Rather than let him die in vain for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, don't let him come out to take care of His Highness.
Okay, I'll go!" Xian'er took a sip of water, and hurriedly turned around and blew a whistle into the sky......
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince added from behind her: Eh, can you save my mother first?
Xian'er nodded and replied: "Little meaning, you just wait for me here!"
Prince Long San was finally relieved, and after seeing Xian'er disappear into the blue sky, he asked Xingyun: By the way, Sister Xingyun, why did you come to the palace? Thank you for your kindness!
You don't have to thank me first, Xian'er and I also have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace. This time I came here to ask you to help us find my third sister Dao Meimei.
What? Let me find the knife girl? What's wrong with her? What's going on?
Xingyun smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "It's nothing, we're just separated." Compared to what happened to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today, I
Our business doesn't matter at all. I heard Xian'er say that you have a mandarin duck order, so we want you to help us find the third sister......
It's so easy to do, and to be honest, I've always had her in mind. It's just that my father and I can't afford to be bedridden, and the situation in the palace is changing rapidly. Almost all the government affairs have fallen on my head, and I have been entangled in official business, and I can't shirk my responsibilities to see her......
Xingyun said: Then what is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince going to do now?
Prince Long San thought for a while and said: I don't know either. For me, I think it's a rare blessing to be able to leave the palace, because I can live the life I want to live and love the people I want to love. But......
However, if you are born as a dragon, you are destined not to live an ordinary life. You can't live up to your father's high expectations, and you can't be ashamed of the people of the Ming Dynasty, right?
The prince nodded: Yes, the king of Wei is doing this great rebellion now, but I, as the crown prince, can't stop it. I am already ashamed of my father. My personal honor and disgrace are small, but as soon as the Ming Dynasty falls into the hands of the King of Wei, with his authoritarian power and domineering style, it will definitely bring disaster to thousands of people. So I've got to find a way to stop him from ascending the throne!
Nebula praised: I believe that you will do it, and just by worrying about the world, I believe that you will be able to become a good king.
The prince smiled absurdly: Hehe, now even I don't believe that I have that ability. The King of Wei falsely passed on the holy decree, and all the Qing families were also looking forward. As long as the false edict is announced to the world, it is the fact that the rice has been cooked. At that time, if I try to set things right, it will become my disobedience......
Xingyun took out the true holy decree and put the edict on the table: it can't be fake, and it can't be fake. Don't worry, Lord Situ, they are still on your side. It's just that for the sake of the overall situation in the future, I have to surrender against my will. So His Royal Highness the Crown Prince need not be discouraged.
When Prince Long Sanyi saw that Xingyun took out the edict written by his father, he immediately asked in surprise: "It turns out that you have already helped me think about it? When did you get this edict? Could it be ...... You are the one who asked Lord Situ to take refuge in King Wei?
Nebula smiled and nodded, acquiescing to the facts......
When Prince Ryuzo learned that Lord Situ was an expedient measure, his heart immediately faded from the shadow and bloomed with hope......
Sister Xingyun, thank you so much this time! Your plan has revitalized a game of chess in the world. As long as Lord Situ and those old ministers are there, I will have witnesses, and I will have the edict of my father in my hand, and I will be the son of heaven who will be replaced by a fake! When General Nan and Chao Xianfeng return triumphantly, I can go to destroy the King of Wei, clear the chaotic party, and protect my Ming foundation!
General Nan, Chao Xianxian, Xingyun asked puzzled.
Oh, hehe, Sister Xingyun may not know that General Nan is Sister Nan Yingying of the South China Sea Sword Sect. Her husband, Jun Chaohu, is now the Pingbei pioneer of my Ming Dynasty.
Xingyun was very surprised and asked: They, when did they join the army?
Speaking of this, Prince Long San said it with a sense of pride. He talked endlessly about how he resolved the suppression of the South China Sea Sword Sect by the Dragon and Tiger Gate, and how he included the South China Sea Sword Sect in the Pingbei Army.
Nebula was also very glad for this......
At this time, Xian'er had already rescued the queen concubine Jing Niangniang, the mother of the crown prince Longsan. After a while, Xiao Tuanzi rushed over with a package on his back, and he walked to the prince with sweaty profuseness, and crawled onto the grass with a 'poof'......
Prince Long San hurriedly went to help him up, looked at Xiao Tuanzi, who was panting and seemed to be about to suffocate, and asked puzzledly: Xiao Tuanzi? What's wrong with you?
Xiao Tuanzi was held in his arms by His Royal Highness the Prince, pointed at Xian'er and said: She, she, she, she...... She's running so fast that I can't keep up......
