Qin Hui, who is already eighty years old, rarely goes to bed late since his old wife went first, and the later he goes, the more he can't sleep.

After the autumn day was getting cooler, the maid who warmed the bed had come over a few times to let him rest, but tonight Qin Hui's mood was chaotic, as if something was going to happen, he didn't feel sleepy at all, and even the idea of going to the street for a walk came up, and he called a few times, but the old servant in the past didn't come to help him, so he felt a little strange.

When he went to the house in the courtyard, the servant knelt down and did not let him go out.

"What are you doing here-" The head of the Wu Dynasty for decades, his majesty has not diminished because of his old body, and in the middle of the scolding, a kneeling servant kowtowed nervously and said: "The eldest lord's body is important, it is cold in the middle of the night, what should I do if I am infected with typhoid fever." ”

Qin Hui straightened up his stiff waist, and his doubts were even worse, the Qin Mansion was only one street away from the imperial city, and when he was puzzled, he subconsciously looked at the towering city wall.

There was a faint sound of fighting.

He looked at the figure who knelt down to block the way and understood something.

Turn around.

White beard angrily: "Rebel !!"

From the small room in the courtyard, Qin Xi came out, saw the old father's angry appearance, knew that the matter could not be hidden, and knelt down and kowtowed in front of the old man, "Father probably guessed that there was an incident in the palace, and His Majesty died tonight." ”

"Wang Zhi tampered with the edict and wanted to support the new emperor?" Qin Hui suppressed the anger in his chest, looked at his son, who was already in his sixties, and pointed at him with trembling fingers: "So you also joined, didn't you?"

"Father..."

"The old man asked you if it was?"

Qin Xi nodded, "Yes." ”

Smack-

A slap in the face, using too much force, made Qin Hui stumble back, "The reputation of your father's life is ruined by your hands, do you know, you are going to drag the whole family to death!"

Qin Xi, who was kneeling, still had a red mark on his face, kneeling and crawling to the old man to help, and his voice was abrupt: "Father, although you are a privy secret, you have been idle at home for so many years, and your son is also an old Longzhong, just to find a way out for the future generations." ”

Qin Xi continued: "Father is just worried about the nine thousand years old in the palace, but has my father ever thought that if Bai Ning has died of old age in the palace, who knows? ”

The old man was closed, his mouth curled and silent.

Then he opened his eyes and looked at the son who had passed back then, and sighed, "If Bai Ning was as incompetent as you say, he wouldn't have been able to sit on the nine-thousand-year-old title forty years ago...... You don't know him at all......"

"The prince rebelled and was quickly arrested. ”

The terrible sound spread in the prince's east palace, and the imperial city guard Jin Hu took the lead with more than 3,000 people and began to surround the palace, but was resisted by the guards of the east palace, and more than 1,000 people occupied the key position to fight.

Under the light of the torches, Wang Zhi swaggered through the palace square with both hands, a python pattern dotted with gold edges rose and fell, and there were seven or eight hundred people under the command of Fanzi and brocade guards behind him, ignoring the East Palace guards and the Imperial City Forbidden Army who were killing around him, and went straight to the East Palace.

Stepping on the stone steps, it was already surrounded, and among the dozens of East Palace guards, a young man who looked thin saw Wang Zhi coming, Feng Bao squeezed out of the encirclement with an angry face.

"Wang Zhi! You dare to rebel!!" His voice was not strong enough, but he also shouted loudly, and pushed it over with one palm.

Over there, the eunuch who came over did not accept the invitation, turned sideways to dodge, reached out and took out a holy decree from his arms, shook it away, and shouted to the surrounding crowd: "The first emperor is here to arrest the prince, and it is true to canonize Zhao Gan, the king of Jin, if you have any doubts, you can come forward to check." ”

"You turn black and white upside down, thinking that our family can't see it!" Feng Bao drank violently, his hands snorted, someone rushed over, and was slapped away, he turned around and shouted: "Take His Royal Highness the Crown Prince away and go to Wushou Palace!!"

Wang Zhi reacted, but was entangled by the other party, and ordered the surrounding Fanzi, Jinyiwei, and Jin Hu, the general of the forbidden army, who was coming: "Go and arrest the prince quickly, don't let a trivial matter alarm the nine thousand years old." ”

Nine thousand years old?

Many people were stunned for a moment and hesitated to take a step, after all, in the past so many years, this title has only existed in other people's chatter, and when it really comes to it, they still think they are listening to a story......

"What are you still doing in a daze, General Jin go quickly!!"

The figures were chaotic, and when the golden tiger with hundreds of forbidden soldiers chased out, rain splashed on his head.

...........

In the deepest part of Yanfu Palace, a new palace has been built, with a simple palace door, and there is no sound in all directions.

The lanterns stretched under the porch, and some hunchbacked figures walked through the corridor, past the houses, and the flowers that bloomed at night in the flower beds were cut by him, put them in baskets, and then cut another one, and then filled it, and then turned and walked back, like a crawling turtle.

"Pick the flowers, pick the flowers, sneak up at night like something. ”

Some hunchbacked figures walked through the garden house when a voice came out of the window, "Are the flowers in the night more fragrant?"

"It turned out to be Senior Sister..."The hunchbacked man stopped his slow steps, and the hoarse old male voice replied, and then looked at the flower basket in his hand, "The flowers in the night are good, many flowers bloom at night, only such fresh flowers are suitable for the master, how can you move here to sit? Isn't there a house in the palace?" ”

"It's too cold in the palace... A handful of old bones, I can't stand the cold, I originally thought I would move outside, but tonight it was very noisy, and there was something going on outside. ”

The hunchbacked old man slowly turned around, looked at the sky, buried his head and walked intently, and said in a loud voice: "I'll go and see, make trouble here, make a noise to the master and the master, don't want to live any of these people...... It's really self-defeating. ”

The door creaked open behind the back of the walking away, and an elderly woman walked out on crutches, glanced at the faintly fire-colored sky, sighed and walked out.

.......

The autumn rain rustled over the stone steps, and the flying steps ran on them.

In the rain, hundreds of forbidden troops behind him chased after him, and Prince Zhao Hou's guards reflexively pounced and killed on the long stone steps.

The heads of the people flew and rolled down the steps, and the blood stained the autumn rain on the ground.

Then, the roaring footsteps followed, and Zhao Hou, who was in a panic, fell, and quickly got up, and the burly and vicious general in his sight was killing with a pair of golden hammers.

Stepping on one, Zhao Hou ran to the temple door over there, his little hands slapped hard, and there was a loud sound.

"Uncle and grandpa, open the door, save Hou'er, someone is going to kill me. ”

Bang bang –

"Uncle, open the door, that man has been killed!!" The rain splashed on his young face, and he couldn't tell whether it was tears or rain.

The torches chasing in the distance reflected the terrifying figure and slowly covered Zhao Hou, who was slapping the gate of the palace, and the general with the golden hammer laughed fiercely.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, let's go with the last general, there are no living people in this palace, it's useless to shout again. ”

Zhao Hou, who was so frightened that he shrank under the palace gate, continued to beat without giving up, until over there, Wang Zhi's figure rushed over, and then stopped his movements in despair.

"Your Highness, you make it easy for our family to find it. Wang Zhi approached.

"Aren't you afraid of nine thousand years old? This is the Wushou Palace, if you dare to be disrespectful to the prince, my uncle and grandfather will come out and kill you-" The prince roared loudly with his legs on the ground, and he had no way to retreat.

In the crowd of people who came around, someone burst out laughing, and a faint mockery sounded: "It's been decades, and I don't know if there is such a person...... Even if there were, a seventy or eighty-year-old guy guarding the ice coffin, do you think we will be afraid?"

Wang Zhi spread his hands, and the sleeves of his robe were raised.

Raising his eyebrows, with a flattering smile, he said to Zhao Yi: "Seeing that everyone doesn't believe it, you have been shouting for a long time, has someone opened the door for you? But ah, after all, he is a factory father, and everyone should respect him, right, Your Highness?"

"Come, let's get out of here, don't disturb his old man's rest. ”

At the moment when he took a step, the door of the palace suddenly creaked, making everyone think that there was a problem in their ears on the spot, and when they looked again, the palace door slowly opened in sight.

The white old man in the white palace robe walked out with his hands behind his back, looking at them with a slight hunchback, and when the autumn rain and the night wind blew, the robe swing hunted and flew up.

A cloudy gaze, with indifference, like looking at a dead man.

"Which of you just said the Overseer was an old fellow'......"

Wang Zhi was also stunned for a moment, and muttered: "Gonggong Chen." ”

PS: The second watch, it's gone today, and it will continue tomorrow.
