Chapter 253: The Longest Night (17)】
Contains the Jade Palace.
Silence is like the sea.
No one dared to take the emperor's words.
For a long time.
The emperor said, "Third brother, you should speak first, otherwise if I die suddenly, you will have no chance at all." ”
"Long live my father, how could he drive west at such a young age, but since my father must let his son say something, then his son ...... I had to dare to say it. The third prince Chen mocked up as if he didn't understand what the emperor was saying at all, paused, glanced at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on the side, his second emperor brother Chen Jianxuan, and then looked at the ministers, just said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, my lords, Your Majesty asked before, what do you think about tonight's events, but Xiao Wang has a little bit of a shallow opinion." ”
Everyone held their breath and waited for the third prince to speak.
The people in this hall all understand that tonight's drama is finally coming.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, my brother is brave and has a question, I want to ask you. "Chen mocked the wind and asked, it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Chen Jianyu.
"Third brother, please ask, the royal brother must know everything. Chen Jianwei didn't show any unhappiness, but waved his hand towards Chen Weifeng unusually generously.
"That'...... The younger brother will be offended. Chen mocked up and saluted again and said with a smile.
"Despite the offense. Chen Jianwei also smiled.
It's a good brother and sister.
"The younger brother has heard that there are thirteen gods under the command of the emperor's brother, with an outstanding reputation, and the powerful Jingshi, only thirteen of them, but the minister only knows that the first god will be the heavenly general Cui Li Cui Longlou, the ninth god will be the Confucian general Luo Chaoluo Tiehua, the tenth god will be Xiong will be full of mountains, the eleventh god will be charming, the twelfth god will be Fu Xin Fu Tianyan, the thirteenth god will be the demon general Dugu Yu Dugu Xiaoju, as for the remaining seven gods, not only the ministers and brothers only hear the big name, not see the real body, even the people of the capital have never seen it, but His Royal Highness the prince is well hidden, I don't know where they are nowChen mocked the wind and talked eloquently, but it was quite like talking about family life, and the meaning in his words did not seem to be hiding his edge.
"They......" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Chen Jianwei said casually, "You also know, Brother Huang, I have always cherished talents, so I intended to hide Feng, and I didn't let them go out and walk around, but just last year, when Brother Huang and I went to the borderland, I took them with me, and I left them in the army and didn't bring them back, why, the third brother is interested in them? If so, then even if Brother Huang and I cherish their skills, it is not impossible to cut love." ”
"A gentleman doesn't take the favor of others, let alone the favor of His Royal Highness the Prince. Chen mocked the wind was still gentle and gentle, and the atmosphere was also very calm, "The younger brother is just curious, and several other gods and generals have seen it, but they have never seen the seven of them, hey...... It's a pity. ”
"The third brother doesn't have to be a pity, when they return from the border in the coming day, they will definitely let them come to the door to apologize, so as to compensate for the third brother's lovesickness today. Chen Jianwei is still very generous, fully showing what a brother should look like.
"I don't have to wait for him, it's a coincidence, before, my brother happened to save a painter, although this painter suffered a tragedy in the world, his hands were cut off, his eyes were gouged out, his tongue was cut, and even his ears were deaf, but fortunately, there is a mind-reading strange person in my house, who can just communicate with people without speaking, so he talks to him, as a result, His Highness guesses what?" Chen asked Chen Jianfeng in a tone like telling a story.
"What's the matter?" Chen Jianwei also seemed to be listening with great interest, and asked rhetorically.
"That painter is actually the former royal craftsman of His Royal Highness the Prince, who specially painted for the people in the palace, and His Royal Highness once included thirteen divine generals, and once asked him to paint as a souvenir, I don't know if His Royal Highness still remembers?"
"Such a trifle...... Lone doesn't remember much. Chen Jianwei shook his head slowly.
"Also, His Royal Highness is busy with military affairs, so it is unlikely that he will pay attention to such trivial matters, but the younger brother is a good painter, as soon as he heard that he had worked in His Royal Highness's mansion and painted a picture of the thirteen gods, he begged him to paint it again to comfort the pain of lovesickness. Chen Weifeng nodded first, and then said.
"But before the third brother, you said, that painter, not only broke his hands, but also blinded his eyes, how else can he paint?" Chen Jianwei seemed to ask the questions in his heart for everyone present, and some officials were also nodding.
"Yes, his hands are indeed broken, and his eyes are no longer visible, it is impossible to paint again, but this world is so big, there are no wonders, this painter, not only his hands are like gods, but also practiced a kung fu of blind painting with his feet, and he heard the invitation of his brother, so he drew a picture of the thirteen gods with his feet. Chen mocked up in another eloquent tone.
"Oh, in this world, there is still such a person, this kind of thing?" Chen Jianwei made a very surprised look.
"Yes, I was also very surprised at the time, I happened to have that painting with me tonight, why don't you have your Highness and all your lords, how about you enjoy it together? Your Highness also take a look, is it like the painting?" Chen mocked up and gestured.
"Okay, Lone is very interested, I don't know ...... father" Speaking of this, everyone remembered that there was another emperor sitting on the throne, and just listened to the two princes' answers, it was as if the emperor was no longer there, so everyone was surprised that they all looked at the emperor cautiously.
But at this time, the emperor seemed to have been wandering outside the realm, and he didn't listen to what the two princes were saying at all, just looked at the full moon in the sky.
"Someone. Chen Weifeng waited for a while, clapped his hands, and an internal supervisor immediately trotted up all the way and handed over a delicate brocade box.
Chen Weifeng slowly opened the brocade box, took out a picture scroll that had been framed from it, untied the jade that buckled the tie, and displayed the whole painting in front of everyone.
The night was like water, because the moonlight shone faintly in, and although the lights in the palace flickered, it was enough for everyone to see what was on the painting.
There are thirteen people of different shapes, in the center is the famous Cui Li Cui Longlou, and on the right are six people who everyone doesn't know much, except for a man who looks feminine and evil, everyone also knows some, called Dugu Yu, as for the seven people on the left......
Seeing these seven people, many people have subconsciously held their breath, not because of anything else, but because of those seven people, although their clothes are different and their expressions are different, they are vaguely the seven most powerful people under Gu Yue'an, who assassinated the emperor just a moment ago, the Seven Masters of the Ancient Mansion!
So...... The Seven Masters of the Ancient Mansion are actually His Royal Highness the Prince's people!
So, the ...... of the assassination of the emperor
"Ridiculous. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince laughed first, and he didn't bother to take the painting, "It's just that the mountain painter, in order to get Wenda, is not only willing to harm himself, but also makes such a ridiculous picture, I'm afraid that this person is not Gu Yue'an planted on the third brother's mansion in advance, and came here to separate the brotherhood between you and me." ”
"What His Highness said is reasonable, the work of the mountain painter is indeed not true. Chen Weifeng actually nodded happily, and then put the painting back away as if nothing had happened.
Then he continued: "Then Your Highness, Brother Chen, there is another question. ”
"But it doesn't hurt to ask. "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not change color.
However, the ministers below are already changing.
In the end, it can't be treated as if nothing happened.
