In the capital, there is a wine cellar in the mansion of the former general Huangfu, because the emperor was born with good wine, so he ordered someone to dig this wine cellar to store fine wine. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Later, Yuan Ying moved to the Great Sima, returned to the dynasty to serve, and visited Huangfu Chu, who was idle at home. Huangfu Chu personally took Yuan Ying to the wine cellar and took out a jar of fine wine that had been sealed for several years, and this jar of wine was won by a bet with Zhu Huan. At the beginning, Huang Fuchu and Zhu Huan made a bet, if Yuan Qi could quell the Wancheng rebellion, Zhu Huan lost to Huang Fuchu two altars of burning knife wine. The outcome of the matter is already known to everyone. Since Huang Fuchu won these two jars of spirits, he drank one of them, but the other jar was reluctant to drink until Yuan Ying came to visit, and then took it out and drank it with Yuan Ying.

Later, Fan Jin wanted to recruit Dong Meng into Beijing in the name of the Son of Heaven, Yuan Ying strongly opposed, Fan Jin because he held the power of the imperial court, acted recklessly, did not listen to any advice, and was stupid enough to personally take risks, before Dong Meng entered Beijing, he was hacked to death in the palace by the eunuchs. After Dong Meng entered Beijing, he saw that the imperial court was in chaos and thought that there was an opportunity, so in the name of avenging Fan Jin and killing the eunuchs, he wantonly slaughtered those who opposed him, which completely plunged the imperial court into chaos, and then took the opportunity to control the government.

At the beginning of Dong Meng's entry into Beijing, Yuan Ying keenly felt that things were not good, so he took his eldest son Yuan He, combined with Zhong Xuan and several others, and secretly hid Yuan Xie in the wine cellar of Huangfu Chu. Because of the relationship between Yuan Qi, Yuan Ying also learned some common dodge methods in later generations, he secretly made some changes to the wine cellar of Huangfu Chu, and dug a layer of hole in the original wine cellar, although it is not big, but it can accommodate ten people at the same time. Zhong Xuan and others sent some precious furs and other daily necessities, trying to make Yuan Xie live more comfortably in the cellar ground.

Because Yuan Ying's cover measures for the wine cellar were very good, and the vents were also very hidden, although Dong Meng sent people to search twice, he failed to find Yuan Xie's hiding place.

Late at night, the cellar was full. In addition to the Yuan Xie, who was hiding here, there were also Huang Fuchu, the owner of the wine cellar, Sima Yuanying, the great Sima Yuanying, who arranged the Yuan Association here, Zhong Xuan, the waiter of the Yellow Gate, the waiter Jinshang, the guard Zhang Wen, the HN Yin Wangnuo, and Zhu Huan, the general of the former town and the country who was idle at home.

The faint candle flame danced uneasily, and the faces of the people reflected were also bleak and abnormal, silent, filling the entire wine cellar.

The nine-year-old Yuan Xie, under the training of Yuan Qi, did not show any panicked look at this moment, raised his head and glanced around at several old ministers sitting beside him, Yuan Xie broke the silence, and his voice seemed calm: "Zhongqing, what is the situation outside now? How long will I hide in this wine cellar?"

Yuan Ying sighed and said a little heavily: "Shengshang, now that all the power in the court has fallen into the hands of Dong Meng, the Shengshang still needs to endure for a while, let Lao Chen and others think of a way." ”

Looking at Yuan Ying, Yuan Xie's face showed an old man who was extremely inconsistent with his age: "Uncle Huang, you are my uncle, and you have the same blood as me, I just want you to tell the truth, my Yuan clan is going to be destroyed in Dong Meng's hands?"

As soon as Yuan Xie's words came out, several old ministers sitting around him were moved at the same time, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, with a sad look on their faces. In all fairness, if there is no help from external forces, then, just by virtue of the strength of these few people present, the Yuan clan may indeed be destroyed at any time. Having said that, no one can say it. After all, the fate of the king of the dead country is usually very tragic, and as important ministers of the court, their hearts are as uncomfortable as being eaten by thousands of ants.

Nodding calmly, Yuan Xie sighed and said, "Actually, there is still a glimmer of hope. The secretaries don't have to be too pessimistic. My imperial brother Champion Hou is still commanding troops in Youzhou, he won't sit idly by, but I don't know if he can come before Dong Meng finds me. ”

At the mention of Yuan Qi, Yuan Ying's face suddenly showed a look of shame, Yuan Qi told himself very resolutely that he must prevent Dong Meng from entering Beijing, but under Fan Jin's interference, Yuan Ying failed to stop Dong Meng, so that he was ******** by Dong Meng, forcing everyone to hide Yuan Xie in this wine cellar to avoid trouble.

Huang Fu Chu glanced up at the north, sighed and said: "Today, there is only one person who has the ability and courage to come to the rescue, and even if the others have the heart, I am afraid that they are not the opponents of Dong Mengxi Liang Tieqi." ”

Zhong Xuan said in a heartbroken voice: "This Dong Meng, since he took power, his brutal nature has been revealed. In the past few days, Dong Meng would transfer troops from outside the city into the capital every morning, and these soldiers who were recruited into the city would always cut off the heads of innocent people and hang them in front of their horses, falsely claiming to be the head of the traitors who were killed. After entering the city, these soldiers refused to obey the control, bullied men and women in the city, and brutalized the people, similar to all kinds of perverse things, which were not uncommon under Dong Meng's subordinates, causing the people to complain, but the Xiliang army that was afraid of Dong Meng was brave and dared not speak out. ”

Hearing Zhong Xuan's story, Wang Nuo also sighed and said, "It's not just that. The old minister heard that Dong Meng actually stayed in the palace, slept on the dragon bed at night, and recruited palace maids to accompany him every night, and even some concubines left by the previous emperor were not spared, and they were all defiled by Dong thieves. Moreover, Dong Thief also moved the Empress Dowager He to Yong'an Palace and imprisoned her, and it was rumored that because he couldn't find the Holy One, Dong Thief planned to set up a new monarch and support the eldest son of the first emperor. ”

Yuan Xie's calm complexion at the beginning finally changed color in the midst of everyone's complaints. For other things, Yuan Xie can still endure it, but when he heard that Dong Meng was going to abolish his position as the Son of Heaven without permission and support his eldest brother Yuan Wei to ascend the throne, Yuan Xie couldn't bear it anymore, after all, Yuan Xie was just a nine-year-old child, and his mind was far from mature in all aspects. Since the founding of the Yuan clan for 400 years, how has there ever been a matter of being deposed by foreign ministers to establish the Son of Heaven?

With a calm face, Yuan Xie said word by word: "I, I will never be the king of the dead country! If no one in the world can control Dong Meng in the future, I would rather die." ”

Yuan Ying looked at Yuan Xie's firm face, and couldn't help but think of his son Yuan Qi again. At this moment, the perseverance on Yuan Xie's face is so similar to Yuan Qi! After thinking about it, Yuan Ying opened his mouth to comfort Yuan Xie: "Holy Lord, you haven't reached the Jedi yet, Holy Lord must not make a decision lightly. Even if they really die in the end, Lao Chen and the others will be with the saint!"

With a sigh, Zhu Huan slowly spoke: "Holy Lord, it's time for the ministers to retire." This gathering is in the name of making a birthday for Brother Yizhen, so that everyone can gather together, and now that the night is dark, if the ministers do not leave, I am afraid that it will arouse Dong Meng's suspicion. ”

Yuan Xie nodded with a calm face, in his heart, being the emperor to the point of being him was helpless enough. If it weren't for the company of these old ministers, I'm afraid Yuan Xie would have been unable to support it a long time ago. For any nine-year-old boy, staying alone in this wine cellar that does not see the light of day, there is not even a person to talk to, needless to say, the torment is needless to say, finally these old ministers come to visit him today, talk to himself, and always have to take care of Dong Meng, lest Dong Meng find out where he is hiding, and dare not stay here for a long time, all of this has made Yuan Xie's hatred for Dong Meng escalate to the point of no return.

Just when everyone was about to leave the wine cellar, Yuan Xie suddenly said: "Zhongqing, thank you for taking care of the feelings of the monarch and the minister at this critical juncture, I will remember the loyalty of Zhongqing." I have also thanked you for the people of the world. Saying that, Yuan Xie slowly stood up and bent slightly towards Yuan Ying and the others.

Yuan Ying and the others looked at Yuan Xie in amazement, no one thought that Yuan Xie, who was only nine years old, would be able to say such a thing. Yuan Ying and the others were all in tears, turned around and knelt on the ground, and said movingly: "The ministers swear to do their best for the emperor, and they will die!"

At this moment, the palace is brightly lit, and all kinds of beautiful palace lamps shine in the palace as if it were day. In the dormitory that was supposed to be Yuan Xie, Dong Meng was sitting in the dragon chair with only underwear, with his chest exposed, holding a bright glow-in-the-dark cup in his hand, and pouring bright red wine into his mouth one by one.

In front of Dong Meng, stood two middle-aged literati dressed in Confucian shirts. The one on the left, with a good appearance, is Dong Meng's son-in-law Li Ru, who is also Dong Meng's chief strategist, and the one on the right, who is obscene and has a vicious look between his eyebrows, is Li Su, another important adviser of Dong Meng.

After swallowing a sip of wine, Dong Meng moved his fat body slightly, his eyes stared closely at the beautiful palace maids dancing in tulle in the hall, and asked lazily: "Wen Wei, can you find the little emperor?"

Li Ru shook his head respectfully and replied: "Father-in-law, there is no news of the Son of Heaven for the time being, and the son-in-law is sending someone to step up the search." ”

Li Su on the side said with a smile: "Captain Yu, the villain thinks that it doesn't matter if you can find the son today." Because Dong Meng's original position belonged to a foreign minister and he could not enter Beijing easily, Fan Jin gave Dong Meng the position of a lieutenant, so Dong Meng was able to rank as the third duke and then take charge of the government. Li Su and other Dong Meng's subordinates also called Dong Meng a captain.

"Oh, Li Su, tell me, why is that?" Dong Meng's gaze still stayed on the glamorous palace maid, and his eyes flickered.

Li Su flattered himself and walked a few steps, and whispered: "Actually, today, no one's power can compare to the Taiwei, it is better for the Taiwei to directly ascend the throne and become the emperor, and if he is in the big treasure, why bother looking for the little emperor?"

"Hmm... Well, look at this figure, it's really good. What did you just say?!Want our family to ascend to the throne of the Son of Heaven?" Dong Meng finally removed his infatuated gaze from the palace maid, his eyes were full of endless desire for power, he looked at Li Su fixedly, and said, "Is this okay?"

"No!" Li Ru interjected: "Father-in-law, although the Yuan clan is declining now, there are still many loyal people, and my father-in-law must not be the first bird!"

Dong Meng rolled his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Wen Wei's words are not unreasonable. Although Dong Meng is just a martial artist, but to be able to sit in today's position, Dong Meng does not rely on all force, and still has considerable political acumen.

Seeing that Dong Meng was a little shaken, Li Su's eyes rolled, and he offered another strategy: "Taiwei, it's not like this." Tomorrow morning, the ministers recommended the Taiwei as the Taishi and took charge of the government. Look at the reaction of the Manchu civil and military forces to this matter, and then the Taiwei will decide whether to ascend the throne or not. ”

If you want to hold the position of Taishi, you must be the emperor's imperial teacher, you must be very experienced and have a significant contribution to the imperial court, in view of the above three points, for hundreds of years, there are few people who have held the position of Taishi. However, Dong Meng is now stationed in the capital with heavy troops, if he proposes to be a prince, how many people dare to object?

"Okay, okay, this matter is settled, you go down and arrange. In the end, Dong Meng couldn't resist the desire for power in his heart, and decided to adopt Li Su's suggestion.

When Li Ru and Li Su retired, Dong Meng's interest returned to the glamorous palace maid, a pair of obsessive eyes swept over the palace maid from time to time, looking at it, a lust jumped up from the lower abdomen, Dong Meng laughed, threw away the precious luminous cup in his hand, and threw himself at the palace maids wearing tulle.
