Pick all the cold branches

The emperor suddenly summoned the princes at this time, this is really not a sign that makes people feel happy.

Especially Cao Min, who is so "old and cunning", even sent someone to tell him "be prepared".

But what else could he be prepared to do?

No matter how much you prepare, you won't be able to stand up to Emperor Father and Governor Chen to play against them.It's better for soldiers to cover the water and soil.

Hu Jingcheng went to the palace with Chen Shiqin to face the saint, what did he say in front of his father?

Hu Jingcheng's safe return to Beijing means that the second brother is already in the city of Beijing. As long as the father sees Hu Jingcheng, he will understand. Then tonight's summoning, is there a temporary change, or is the father planning something long ago? ?

Jia Yu felt that he didn't want to think about anything anymore, he just wanted to have a good fight, and after the long night passed, he had nothing to worry about no matter whether he lived or died.

Just now, under heavy pressure, after reuniting after a long absence, he couldn't help himself for a while, and said everything he should say and shouldn't say in front of his second brother.

For a moment, he clearly saw the fear flashing in his second brother's eyes.

At that moment, the second brother looked at him as if he was looking at a stranger.

At that time, he was cold all over, and he only felt that he was finished.He screwed up after all.

But the second brother didn't say anything else.

The second elder brother was still coaxing him, hugging him and speaking softly to comfort him.

The second elder brother also said to him: "Brothers are brothers, and they will be for the rest of their lives."

He was on the verge of crying, and he tried his best not to collapse on the spot.

Some things cannot be said, because it is hard to get back when overwhelmed.

He once imagined [-] possibilities of being abandoned by his second brother, and woke up countless times from nightmares.

But the second brother didn't push him away.

Although what he longed for would never come true, he didn't care that much anymore.

He said that he can do anything for the second brother is sincere.

Including letting go.

including giving up on himself.

Jia Yu sat in the car heading for the Forbidden City, buried her face in her palms, trembling all over uncontrollably.

When I arrived at Deqianqing Palace, I saw that Sange, Liulang and Xiao Qier were already waiting outside the door, and he was the only one waiting.Seeing him coming, they all came up to greet him and whispered greetings.

It was just before the cold weather, and for some reason, heavy snow fell in the night sky again, paving the road in the blink of an eye to a pure white, and there were no footprints left.

Jia Yu looked at the three brothers in front of him one by one.

This is the first time since entering the Eastern Palace, Jiashou is no longer the immature young man of the past, even his face has a tough outline, and his demeanor and deeds are very calm.

The third elder brother Jiacheng and Liulang Jiaxiang, who had not met for a long time, were simply two strangers, their faces and voices were blurred, so that Jiayu was suddenly at a loss for a moment before he was sure that he had remembered the two of them correctly. name.

Even the titles "Third Brother" and "Liulang" are unfamiliar, as if they have never been called in a lifetime.

Jiayu saw Jiacheng playing with his delicately maintained hands from playing the piano, as well as the exquisitely woven handkerchief—the words on it were all embroidered with gold thread. Sneaking back to Beijing, as soon as he entered the city gate, he had to dress up as a Jingwei to avoid the dog eyes of Dongchang. There was a tingling pain in my heart.

Jiaxiang on the side was still trembling, as if he could fall into hysteria at any time.

Jia Yu looked away in disgust, and didn't want to look at them any more.

In fact, discerning people have their own calculations in their hearts.

Among the few remaining sons of the father, except for Xiao Qi'er, none of them is a fuel-efficient lamp.

Ever since Goro made the world and finally killed himself, these people have more problems of one kind or another.Whether you are obsessed with rhythm and do not do your job properly, or you are frightened and hysterical, it is just to avoid disasters, and you don’t want to be a bird in the early days, being held by the neck as a target, and you don’t care about the rise and fall of your family and country.

Some people have lofty aspirations, and naturally there are others who are greedy for ease.Born as a prince, with a golden spoon in his mouth, he can enjoy a lifetime of idleness and wealth, why not do it?This wishful thinking was well done.

Even the elder brother who is still living in the suburbs of Beijing has always been known as "benevolent and cowardly". Could it be that he was so stupid back then that he couldn't even understand what he said, so he let a few Jinyi guards kill a younger brother on the spot?

That was his younger brother who couldn't be closer to his mother and compatriots.

What happened back then, Jia Yu was lucky enough to escape the catastrophe by relying on his illness, and instead of being part of it, he could see it clearly.

He was never afraid to use malice to judge others, and he wholeheartedly felt that the "good show" back then was clearly caused by the eldest brother who thought Goro had made too much trouble because he didn't know how to measure. Stones on their own feet.

The father is not a fool. Among these sons, the second brother and Qilang are the only ones who like him. It is not true that he misses his dead wife and loves the youngest son as the folk rumors say. The ones are gone.

There is only the second brother, and all these years, in the wind and rain, he has been the target of public criticism for them, and fought against the eunuchs for them. Brother, it seems that they really don't know what happened, they are really pure and innocent.I don't know who it was who knelt in front of the father, biting each other with snot and tears.It's ridiculous.

Jiayu stood in front of the palace gate of the Qianqing Palace in disgust, and heard Jiashou whispering to him that Mr. Cao Ge, Hu Jingcheng and Chen Shiqin had been talking with their father inside for a long time, and they were told to stand here and wait, I don't know when they will be called in, but I glanced out of the corner of my eye and saw Jia Xiang deliberately standing in the snow with her hands folded, looking precarious.

Thinking that he, who was fed medicine in the womb, has not fallen yet, and the other one will fall first.

The fire in Jia Yu's heart was already burning up, and he couldn't bear it any longer, so he gave Jia Xiang a look, and sneered: "Don't act. Anyway, you have nothing to do. Look at your legs If you can't even stand up straight, you don't feel ashamed."

Although he used to be mean and mean, he didn't really quarrel with these brothers.

Jia Xiang never expected to be scolded so hard by him all of a sudden, he was stunned, stood in the snow and looked at him dumbfounded, with a look of hesitation as he didn't know whether to cry or not.

Jia Cheng, who was watching the fun, laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten up, poked him with his slender and delicate fingers, shook his head and said with emotion: "Little Si, you have such a mouth... It's lucky that you have Second Brother who can spoil you."

"That's right, I was sick at both ends for three days. I missed a lot of classes and read less books. Naturally, I can't speak. It's no better than the third brother's reciting poems, fus and operas." Jiayu turned her face back with a smile.

Jiashou was already dumbfounded with fright, and he didn't know where the fourth brother's nameless fire started. He wanted to persuade him, but he didn't know what to say, so he called "fourth brother" softly, and Jia Yu gave him a look. stare back.

"Why, after living in the East Palace for three years, you've learned your skills, and you want to teach your brother a lesson?"

Jiashou was immediately scolded and froze. He wanted to defend himself, but he was afraid that there would be another charge of talking back to his elder brother. He opened his mouth and did not make a sound. After a long time, he stepped forward and carefully grabbed Jiayu's arm, bowing his head. Low called out again: "Fourth brother, don't worry."

This call had so many meanings that it really calmed Jia Yu down a bit.

Jiashou is really different from before.The younger brother who used to dig holes and get into trouble with a tiger head and a tiger head can now stand by his side to comfort him.

Jia Yu suddenly had mixed feelings, and when he looked at Jia Xiang who was still pretending to be a snowman in the open air, he became more and more disgusted, so he sneered again.

"You have to protect yourself, you only want to protect yourself. It doesn't matter. We are all brothers, brothers and sisters, and we should protect you. Except for brothers, who cares about your life and death."

With great difficulty, Jiacheng stopped fiddling with his manicured and round nails, squinted at the snow-covered palace in the distance, and answered with a smile: "Of course it is. It is said that Shiro is the most exquisite character. No wonder when We are all stupid. Anyway, you can’t see anyone other than the second brother. Brothers like us are all the same. But there are smart and capable people like you in this world, there must be us. This kind of leisure is extremely boring, otherwise how can you show that you bowed to the essence and died."

This sounds like, if the speaker is not really smiling, it seems that they are really going to quarrel.

"Brothers, don't be angry..." Jia Xiang shrank his neck, looked at the third brother, then at the fourth brother, and pressed his heart timidly.

"Who's angry? This isn't a great snow scene, and it's boring to watch. Let's chat with Shiro casually." Jiacheng grinned cheerfully, raised his hand and yawned loudly, rubbed his eyes, and hooked Jia Xiang He hooked his fingers, "What chaff are you sifting through the snow with the pestle? Come back when it's cold. Come back quickly."

When Jia Xiang heard the sound, he ran back in three steps at a time, without taking off the cloak on his body, he shook his head and started shaking the snow.Several small internal officials rushed up to help him take pictures, and the ground was covered with snow in the blink of an eye.

Jiayu was still angry at first, but seeing this, she could no longer express it, so she could only frown, and stood on the other half of Jiashou, far away from those two, just pretending to be out of sight and out of mind.

After waiting in front of the Qianqing Palace for about a time to touch the incense sticks, the palace gate was slowly pushed open, Chen Shiqin came out in person, and respectfully invited the four Highnesses to come inside to face the saint.

The stove in the main hall was burning hot, but it made people feel that Cai's hands and feet were cold just now.

The tip of Jiayu's nose was completely cold, and he was not interested in listening to the few people in the hall talking about unimportant things, but he still couldn't grasp the point.

He just felt that his father's spirit didn't look very good.

Seriously speaking, he has not been able to see his father for a long time.

In the past three years, Emperor Father rarely went to court, nor summoned them very often. All internal and external affairs were handled only by the cabinet and the supervisor of ceremonies. Most of the time, he was accompanied by his mother, Concubine Wan Gui, chanting scriptures, cultivating Taoism, and alchemy. ...

He saw his father leaning against the screen with one hand propping his forehead, half-closed his eyes, and for the first time felt that his father appeared to be in his twilight years, and compared to the white-haired and childlike Chen Shiqin, he looked more like an old man. people.

Is that really his father who stands above ten thousand people and manages the world?

Jiayu was suddenly in a daze, and felt an unspeakable bleakness rising from the bottom of her heart, even a little panic.

He heard Chen Shiqin speak eloquently, saying that King Zhao Jiashou had served his father in Qingning Palace for three years, but the position of the crown prince has not yet been decided, which is not conducive to the stability of people's hearts.

He actually openly mentioned the matter of establishing a crown prince, and asked his father to be in the East Palace of Jiashou.

No wonder the emperor summoned the princes overnight, maybe it was not the emperor's intention at all, but Chen Shiqin's intention at all.

As expected, the old eunuch was still very suspicious. He still didn't believe that Hu Jingcheng was just called back to Beijing by his father to hand over his power.

But father be careful to know that the second elder brother has returned to the capital.

As long as it is delayed until dawn, when all the officials are announced in the morning, the second brother enters the ban, and the secret edict is read out, everything will be settled.

As long as the father's will remains the same.

However, most of the officials in the DPRK and China are officials who are wise and protect their lives. Even if they don't join forces with Chen Shiqin, they may not be willing to stand up for the second brother.The rest of the Chen party will definitely endorse Chen Shiqin jointly, and they will speak with one voice, lobbying and persecuting the father in the court meeting.In case father changed his mind again...

For a moment, Jia Yu didn't know whether she felt relieved a little or became more nervous.

He heard Jiashou say quietly again: "I don't have the ability to take on important responsibilities, and I am a younger brother, so I dare not presume to overstep. Please choose a worthy elder brother to inherit the great power."

Jiashou no longer opens his mouth to talk nonsense like he used to, but the more decent he is, the more he makes Chen Shiqin happy.

Sure enough, Chen Shiqin nodded with a smile and said, "His Royal Highness Zhao deserves credit but does not take credit for it. He is humble and loving, filial and virtuous. No wonder I implore His Majesty to establish a crown prince as soon as possible, and there are memorials for His Royal Highness Zhao's East Palace to be restored every day. There are already too many to count. .”

That laughter was really ear-piercing, Jia Yu's face was gloomy, and he said, "Shouldn't the second brother be called back for such a big event as the crown prince, and then listen to the emperor's imperial edict?"

He spoke in a bad voice, but the other party didn't say anything, instead he laughed more and more treacherously.

"The Fourth Highness is right. If this is the case, the eldest prince should also be called back to the palace, so that the emperor and queen can reunite with their children, and your highnesses can also be reunited as siblings."

The old eunuch suddenly mentioned the "eldest prince" who had been deposed and imprisoned for a long time.

Jia Yu was taken aback when he heard the words.

It turned out to be the case.It turned out to be waiting for them here.

The eldest son of the royal father and the successor empress Zheng's family has now been deposed as a commoner because of the case of King Zhuangmin, and their elder brother Jiafang.This is a more troublesome existence than Qilang Jiashou.Although Jia Yu once completely forgot about this person.

If Chen Shiqin is really allowed to welcome back the "eldest prince", the second brother will be forced into the embarrassing quagmire of "establishing the elder and establishing the virtuous" like a nightmare repeating itself.

Jia Yu felt in her heart that this was actually a disaster caused by her father.On the one hand, he talked about how he and the queen are young and married, but on the other hand, they are not idle elsewhere. Before the wife and son-in-law landed, they first produced a "eldest son", and then the princes were born one after another, not counting. princesses.

Especially after the death of the queen, the father actually helped the Zheng family to be his successor.

No matter how complicated the situation is and how helpless it is, it is very difficult to say.

Especially His Majesty the Father, he flicked his hands happily, but his sons have to bear the consequences, what is this.

But the emperor shouldn't be so confused as to really get that "eldest son" back. If he could get it back, he wouldn't be abolished in the first place.

Chen Shiqin deliberately pulled out such people and things, nothing more than a trick of opening the window and tearing down the wall first, and made a big move to force everyone—especially the emperor's father agreed to Li Jiashou as the prince by taking the next best thing proposal.

After all, compared to the elder brother who really killed his younger brother, Xiao Qi'er is much better.

As expected, Duzhu Chen is well versed in coercion, temptation, and even bluffing.

Jia Yu felt extremely bored.

He even heard his father snoring while leaning on his seat, as if echoing the disgust in his heart.

But now that Hua Tou has been provoked, the opponent cannot be allowed to run around like a wild horse.

Jia Yu frowned again and retorted: "Second elder brother has a noble status, and the vassal guarded a corner for the emperor outside, so it's not good to be on the same topic as ordinary people who have committed heinous crimes."

Chen Shiqin raised his hands, with a gentle face, bowed slightly and said: "After all, the eldest son is the eldest son, and the eldest brother is the eldest brother after all. For ten years, the eldest prince has devoted himself to copying scriptures day and night, practicing the righteous way, atoning for his own sins, and serving the king's father's family and country." Pray for blessings." At this point, he deliberately paused for a while, and then said to the emperor: "Among the papers collected by the ceremonial supervisor over the years, many of them are petitions for the eldest prince every year. The empress has been ill for a long time. The middle palace also misses the eldest son. But the servants are afraid of angering the emperor, so they suppress them for the time being. They are all piled up together, and there are hills as high."

As long as Duzhu Chen wants something like a booklet, it's not just a matter of saying hello.Not to mention hills, even a Taishan, he Chen Shiqin can pile up.

Jia Yu couldn't help sneering, and said awkwardly: "Eunuch Chen, my father is in good health, what do you mean by pushing my father to be the crown prince? Could it be that you think that my father will not have many days to come, and the country will not live forever?" Sir?"

It was thanks to him, who had always had a "notorious reputation" for being sharp-tongued, perverse and frivolous, that he dared to throw such rebellious words directly in Duzhu Chen's face when he choked up.

The third prince Jiacheng who was sitting next to him shrugged his shoulders when he heard the sound of suppressed laughter, and quickly stopped him back.

"Father is sincere, and sooner or later he will transcend the common world and ascend to immortality, but someone still has to shoulder the great responsibility of the world. It's a pity that I don't cultivate the Tao and have no righteous talents. It's really hard to become a great weapon. The ancestors are the ancestors. The second brother's literary and martial arts are obvious to all, so I will recommend the second brother, and I will do my best to share the worries of the king and father."

His Highness always spoke in an unhurried manner, happy to smooth things over first, as if joking, while touching his slender and white fingers, he sighed "tsk tsk".

"But Qilang has been in the East Palace all these years, sharing the worries of his father. There is nothing wrong with him, and he can't be too wronged. Otherwise..." He seemed to be undecided, touched his chin in distress, and leaned over Jiayu beside him, Tilting his head to look over to the sixth prince Jiaxiang, he asked with a tentative smile, "Anyway, Liu Lang, you are closest to Qi Lang, or you'll go to Qi Lang's side? Let's be on one side, so it's fairer."

Jia Xiang was still holding a cup of calming tea, choking so much that he almost coughed out his lungs, he looked like he was going into hysteria with fright, his face was pale, his voice was trembling, and he didn't say "I" for a long time. Therefore, he just stared at Jiacheng angrily, as if he was about to cry.

Jiacheng seemed to be having some great fun, he couldn't stop laughing more and more, because he was in front of the emperor, he couldn't be too presumptuous, so he buried his head and covered his mouth with his hands, sitting on his seat and trembling.

This muddy water is really disturbing.Standing in line, talking nonsense, and selling out his younger brother are all natural.Regardless of who loses or wins in the end, the second brother and Qilang, anyway, you are both in my heart, and I am not sorry for anyone.As for what Chen Duzhu seemed to say just now, whoever comes back will not come back, it doesn't matter, the trouble has already been exposed, you don't want to fight, just smile and continue talking about other things, whoever turns back and won't let go Interesting.

Unexpectedly, the third brother still has this kind of ability. I really didn't know it in the past, but now I see it, and I am impressed.

Jia Yu was used to pushing back with all her thorns when things went wrong, and she thought that such a way of messing things up with mud was far beyond her reach, and at the same time felt absurd and absurd, but at the same time she was a little admirable.

Sure enough, rolling all over the floor has its own usefulness, sometimes it is much better to tell the truth, he already knew it.

Although it is difficult to be decent.

But since the third brother has already made a fuss, the younger brother must be sensible.

Jia Yu couldn't help but twitched the corners of her lips, but still closed her mouth.

Mr. Cao Ge took advantage of this opportunity, and continued to speak, first saying a bunch of things, "Your Highnesses are both dragons among men, no matter which one the Holy One decides to be the crown prince, it must be Mingjun tomorrow, and the other one will also be the next king." They will be the pillars of the country, and they will be the blessings of all the people." Such nonsense, and since it is difficult to make a decision, it is better to call a group of ministers to discuss in the hall after dawn.It's nothing more than a tacit understanding in the heart, and continuing to fight with the mud will delay the time.

Then he threw the hot potato to Hu Jingcheng and asked, "What do you think, Mr. Hu?"

Mr. Hu is about to be dismissed and return to his hometown to take care of his life, so what else is there to "think"?That is to say, this person has already received the grace of God and is about to leave. What he can say and what he cannot say are all "good words", so he is pushed out. As for them, they still want to hang out in this officialdom for a few more days. If you are young, you have to be wise and protect yourself.

This old fox Cao is also very slippery. At this time, he still refuses to stand up and say something nice for his second brother, for fear of being caught by Chen Shiqin.

The so-called mature and steady, what is the point of a person doing this...

Jiayu only felt nauseated for a while, almost retching, so she gritted her teeth and went to see Hu Jingcheng.

Ever since the princes were summoned to the palace, Hu Jingcheng had been sitting silently in a corner with his head bowed. He had no choice but to be called by Mr. Cao Ge. He could no longer pretend that he did not exist, so he had to raise his head and smiled wryly.

"Eunuch Chen only saw the letters written by the officials, but there are still many people who can't and cannot write letters to the imperial court: the garrison troops in the northern border and the guards in the southeast, no fewer than one hundred thousand troops; Everyone. Even if you only look at the words of the court officials, the records of the third division of Zhejiang and the defense of Nanjing, I am afraid that the supervisor of ceremonies will be too busy to present them to the imperial court in the future. What's more, the tax burden of Nanzhili is the highest in the country, supporting more than half of the national treasury The morale of the army, the morale of the people, financial resources, none of which can be faked."

He stood up from the stool, took a step forward, and knelt down before the eyes of the emperor. His voice was not high, but his words were clear.

To put it bluntly: His Royal Highness King Jing has now taken down the two brave armies in the north and the south and the financial key points of the big tax-paying province. Although the Grand Governor's Mansion in Southern Zhili is empty, it has not been revoked. There is actually no reason to hesitate. The decision is nothing more than the difference between a stable position or a mutiny. In this case, choosing the former is beneficial to the country, the people, and yourself.

Of course, these words were not for the emperor, but for Chen Shiqin.

Hu Jingcheng was trying to persuade them to surrender.

For a moment, Jia Yu clearly saw the killing intent in Chen Shiqin's eyes, like a bird of prey eating carrion, full of bloodthirsty red light.

But he didn't speak, nor did he move.

Almost at the same time, His Majesty the Emperor, who had been silent for a long time and drowsy, suddenly opened his eyes, and spoke for the first time in this sudden overnight summons.

Like thunder.

"Shiro, you go out first."

He waved his hand at Jiayu.

"Father...?" Jia Yu's heart tightened, subconsciously straightened up, and called out tentatively.

"Go out." The emperor closed his eyes again, repeating as if tired.

This punishment-like "repulsion" came without warning.

Jiashou's face immediately changed, and he looked at Jiayu with some anxiety, as if he wanted to ask for a favor, but he held back through gritted teeth.

The other two princes also showed obvious shocked expressions. They didn't know why their father was doing this, but they didn't react too much. One still shrank his neck timidly, and the other buried his head in fiddling with his hands back and forth.

What Jiayu did was to contradict Chen Shiqin in public.

Could it be that the father really wants to drive his son out of the hall for Governor Chen?

Chen Shiqin's complexion was still uncertain, and he was not happy because of the emperor's seemingly friendly gesture.

But Jiayu no longer went to see it.He calmed down for a moment, bowed to bid farewell to his father, stepped out of the palace of Qianqing Palace, and stood in the snow for a long time, making sure that no one else came out with him, and then exhaled a long breath.

The emperor purposely pretended to reprimand him and kicked him out.

Because he can't be stuck here.Otherwise he can do nothing.And he still has important things to do.

From this moment on, it was Chen Shiqin who was trapped in the Qianqing Palace.

The emperor finally made a decision.

The cold air in Qianye hurt the heart and lungs, but it couldn't stop the boiling blood.

Jia Yu raised her face slightly, looked at the magnificent palace under the night curtain in front of her, and the flickering yellowish lights, and heard her own beating heart.

An unfamiliar eunuch in red robes quickly approached him, and smiled flatteringly at him, "Your Highness, it's cold and the road is slippery, this servant will carry the lamp for you."

Jia Yu nodded casually without looking at him, "Okay. I'll go see my mother."

He let the eunuch lead the way, and went straight to the Chengqian Palace where his mother Concubine Wan Gui lived. After entering the palace gate, the palace people from Chengqian Palace rushed up, pressed the eunuch on the ground and broke his neck.

Concubine Wan Gui had heard the news that the emperor had summoned her son to the palace, she was so nervous that she couldn't fall asleep, her eyes turned on the lamp and waited until Jia Yu came over, but she saw that he killed the chief of ceremonies as soon as he entered the door, she was frightened His legs became weak and he couldn't stand upright.

Jiayu ordered several internal officials and maidservants of Chengqian Palace to take off the eunuch's red robe and three-mountain cap and put them on himself, and also took off his waist card and held it in his hand, dragged the body into a corner and buried it in snow for the time being. , and then turned to leave.

"What are you going to do?" Concubine Wan Gui's face turned pale with nervousness, and she held on tightly to him.

Jia Yu broke apart her mother's white fingers one by one.

"My son has to do a big thing that must be done. If it doesn't work, he will die without a place to bury him."

He looked helplessly at his terrified mother, exhausted the remaining warmth, hugged her comfortingly, and whispered comfort in her ear.

"Mother, don't be afraid. You shut the palace door tightly. Unless your son comes back, no one else will open it. If anyone dares to say that the father passed me on, you can say that I took medicine and fell asleep because I was unwell."

He first went to the Beizhen Fusi, then went to the Nanzhen Fusi and the Experience Department in turn, and finally led the people to the Command and Envoy Department.

Chen Shiqin personally selected the former Commander of Jinyiwei, two fellow acquaintances, and an internal officer of the East Factory Supervisor to stay up all night in the commander's office. When he came to visit, he was quite surprised, and he stood up nervously to greet him, and asked cautiously, "Your Highness, why are you here?"

"I'll take some heads."

Jia Yu stood in the hall with a sullen face, with his hands behind his back, and behind him several thousands and hundreds of households from Fusi of Nanbei Town pressed their hands on the embroidered spring knives around their waists.

People who noticed that the visitor was not kind had nowhere to go if they wanted to leave, so they could only bite the bullet and apologize.

"Your Highness, you are joking, what do we have here—"

Jiayu didn't listen to him at all, and only gestured in disgust. Dozens of Xiuchun knives behind him had been brushed out of their sheaths, and they chopped off several people's heads in the blink of an eye. Together with internal officials, such as cutting melons and vegetables.

Once the anger of being manipulated and oppressed by the Supervisor of Rites and East Factory officials like a dog for many years breaks out, even the sky will be turned into blood.

The sweetness of human blood diffused in the cold air, and it was the smell of the beginning of the hunt.

Jia Yu stood in the blood on the ground, the bright red color was connected with the cloak on his body, like a burning fire, and like a coquettish blooming flower.

He turned around slowly, looking at everyone and every knife with thick black eyes.

"From today onwards, Jinyiwei Nanbei Zhenfu Division and Experience Division will no longer be under the jurisdiction of the Li Supervisor, and do not have to be driven by the Dongji Incident Factory. I will give you an hour to avenge your injustice and revenge. After an hour, I don't want to Goodbye blood. I just want every gate in the Forbidden City to be guarded by you intact."

In the city of Beijing that night, there were wolves rushing and roaring.

When the corner of the sky glowed with a blue light, the emperor slowly opened his eyes again, and heard the news in a low voice: "What time is it?"

Elder Cao Ge, who stayed with him for a whole night, couldn't straighten his back, but he still stood up tremblingly, "Return to Your Majesty, it's already past the time of Yin."

The emperor squinted his eyes and nodded, picked up the magic weapon lying nearby, poked Chen Shiqin, who was still standing beside him with his hands wrapped around him, and said, "Go to court."

The sleepy-eyed civil and military officials outside Fengtian Gate thought it was just another day of going through the motions. Suddenly they heard the thunder, and finally saw the emperor go to court again after a long absence. His Highness Prince Jing stood tall and heroic, walked up the hall from the main entrance, leaving clear footprints all the way on the snowy ground.

The young man following His Royal Highness King Jing, wearing a python robe with a jade belt, was as handsome as a fairy, holding a belt with the imperial brush and swastika pattern in both hands. With the emperor's approval, he took out the imperial edict from the belt and read it out in public.

Shangyu:

Yu Jiu cherished the heart of Taoism, and wanted to serve Tianzun's seat, pass on the crown prince, and return to the government to serve Taoism in the Dagaoxuan Hall.

Jiafei, the second son of King Jing, has a noble character, has the merits of stabilizing the country and the people, and inherits the virtues of the great system. Therefore, the imperial edict before sending him to Qin was abolished, and he was returned to the capital.

This imperial decree is not to establish a reserve, but a Zen position.

The clear and clear voice of the caller still echoed on the carved beams of Fengtian Temple for a long time.

The emperor, who has passed his prime, sits peacefully, looking down at the unsuspecting courtiers at his feet contentedly, seeing their frightened, bewildered and sweaty faces, with a triumphant smile dripping from the corners of their lips to the brows.

"Chen Shiqin."

Seriously, he raised the magic weapon in his hand, knocked heavily on the jade steps under his feet three times, and called out the name of the great eunuch who had been playing games with him for half his life.

"You are my old partner, and you have served me conscientiously for decades. When I sat in this position, you were by my side. Now I want to cultivate the way of heaven and ask the way of immortality. I can't forget you. You and Let me go together."

Chen Shiqin, the chief eunuch in the hands of the chief inspector of ceremonies and the imperial envoy, the chief eunuch in charge of the Dongchang official school, was standing at the bottom of the first step, one step away from the ninth and fifth steps of the emperor. Hearing this, he suddenly raised his head, as if Waking up from a big dream.

All the officials in the hall were silent.

Every pair of eyes was on him.To see if the great eunuch who has power all his life will accept it, and how he will accept it, is about to serve the Supreme Emperor in the Taoist temple until his death.

The expressions on those faces were all the same.

Chen Shiqin stood stiffly for a long time, raised his hand to smooth Shengxue's silver hair at the temples, and was the first to bow down and kneel down, shouting: "Holy Grace is mighty."

The officials suddenly woke up and prostrated themselves one after another.

Amidst the thunderous shouts, Jia Fei, who had become the heir emperor, stood in front of his father, who was quietly aging but still standing, overlooking everything from the same height for the first time.

When he saw Jia Yu, who was at the front of the courtiers, and Xiao Xian who was beside him, he suddenly felt an urge to reach out his hand.But he resolutely held back.

Looking up again, the blue sky outside Fengtian Hall is boundless.Suddenly, I realized that the blizzard that had rained all night had stopped.

The scorching sun leaps and shines on the mountains and rivers.
