All my subjects want to usurp the throne

Chapter 123 Morning, I can't make it!
"When I was in the army, I used to drink only on forums. People like you won't get drunk even after drinking ten pots."

I didn't move around yesterday, but today I followed the old man, but found that this cold palace, the more I walked inside, the more frightening it was to think carefully.

Didn't it mean that many resources are scarce in the cold palace?Why are there these instruments of torture?What happened to those who lived before?
No wonder the maids and eunuchs in the palace wanted to stay away from this place. This was once a purgatory on earth. Even if there were no rumors of haunting, it would still be embarrassing. How many people were tortured to death here.

"It's useless to see these, you kid quickly follow my footsteps, when the old man killed the enemy on the battlefield, he was so reckless and refreshing."

Walking to the southeast corner, the wall had long been soaked in blood, and even the ground was covered in blood.

Ling Xiao's scalp was numb, as if countless people were hugging his legs.

"Come here!" The old guy tugged him.

Turning his head to look, there was actually a black cat, staring at it covetously.

"The more people die here, the more mice there will be. This black cat has been brought in and has lived in the cold palace for many years, but it is stubborn and untrained. Be careful."

Looking into the eyes of the black cat, Ling Xiao only felt dizzy for a while, and turned his head away quickly, it was so strange.

Yuan Yang pushed aside a pile of messy grass, and a dirt pit appeared, murmured, and then looked at a large tank next to him.

It took a lot of strength to pick up the big tank and fill it on top of the pit, and it was able to fill it perfectly.

Then, only a slight sound was heard.

"follow me!"

When we got to the bottom of the wall, we saw a stone slab, which had been moved over a long time ago, and there was a hole in the ground that only allowed one person to pass through.

Yuan Yang opened the fire folder to illuminate the situation inside the cave. He thought the cave was simply dug out, but he didn't expect that the inside was paved with glazed bricks.

"Meow!"

The black cat let out a cry, and rushed towards Ling Xiao with a fierce look in its eyes.

Fortunately, Yuan Yang made a timely move and pushed the black cat away.

"Bastard, do you still want to hurt people?"

The black cat was ready to go, but with Yuan Yang standing there, he arched his waist and disappeared in a flash.

Ling Xiao had lingering fears in his heart. The black cat was used to living here, and if it clawed at him, the injury would definitely be serious.

Follow Yuan Yang down, press the switch next to it, and the stone slab closes automatically.

Yuan Yang talked about the tunnels in the palace while walking, he was very familiar with every place.

"It seems that this tunnel was built by the late emperor, right? With his character, there should be a mechanism, does senior know?"

If the mechanism is accidentally triggered, wouldn't it be over?

"Organ? Destroyed!"

Yuan Yang dismissed it with disdain: "When we broke in, there was indeed a mechanism, but unfortunately the mechanism was too vicious, and even I was injured. In a fit of anger, the old man simply dismantled it."

"Tunnels are meant for people to leave. Why do we need so many institutions?"

"If you want to dig through the tunnels in the palace, you only need to dig to the small wooden house in the west of the city, and you can get through!"

With Yuan Yang's explanation, after leaving the tunnel, Ling Xiao drew a topographic map. The palace is so big, there is a part that Yuan Yang has never been to.

And that part belongs to the harem, and Yuan Yang has a woman he likes, so he will definitely not enter the harem.

"Then starting tomorrow, when it's meal time, senior can wait here in the tunnel, and I'll ask someone you trust to bring you a drink."

Before Lu Fengxian came back, he had to go to Qinghe Residence.

But these old guys are all around me these days, and it's hard to get rid of them.

These old guys, it's not generous at all to impeach the newcomers all the time.

Listening to them chattering in the Golden Luan Hall, Ling Xiao had a headache and simply covered his forehead.

"Dear dears, from now on, this court meeting will only last for five days and rest for two days. I can also be at ease, and my dear friends can also reunite with their families. Wouldn't it be great?"

As soon as these words came out, the debate in the court stopped immediately.

What does this mean, king?
There must be a court meeting every day, this is the rule set by the ancestors, how come to the emperor, even the court meeting has to be changed?
What a system!

Some stubborn censors stood up, blushing with anger.

"The law of the ancestors cannot be revoked, Your Majesty, think twice!"

"It is natural to be diligent in state affairs. If there is a mistake, it will suffer!"

"It needs to be refurbished every day. If there is a good news, it can't be delivered to the palace after two days of rest, which delays the frontier fortress. What should we do?"

There was a lot of opposition in the court, but for Dong Zhuo's people, this was the best news.

Come and go every day, just bickering, but can't do anything to the other party, and there is nothing to go to court, just take advantage of not going to court to strengthen your power.

"My minister thinks." Dong Zhuo fell silent as soon as he opened his mouth, "The emperor's proposal is quite reasonable."

Huo Guang, "Senior!"

Wang Mang, "My minister seconded the proposal!"

The three giants agreed, and the thorn-headed censors could only stand in with indignation.

But I thought in my heart, when I go back, I must write the emperor in the history books, such people who are rebellious and do not abide by the rules of the ancestors are simply a disgrace in the history of the emperors of the Qi Dynasty.

Looking at their declining loyalty, Ling Xiao sneered, but they are just a few historians. If I become stronger in the future, I must let you change it.

"Also, if you have nothing to say, don't embarrass yourself, and don't embarrass me on the rest day. If you have to go to the palace to say hello, I'm very safe. If you disturb my good business..."

Those civil servants are troublesome, Ling Xiao has to put the ugly words up front.

Those civil servants originally wanted to perform during the break, so they could only dispel the thoughts in their hearts.

The harem was full of joy, if the emperor rested, there would be more opportunities to get close to them.

Maybe once you are lucky, you will be favored!

One by one, all dressed up in fancy dress, in front of the imperial study room, everyone came in under the pretense of delivering things.

It was nothing more than some soup or something like that, Ling Xiao had already expected that Li De would set a table outside, and all the concubines who came would bring the things and put them on the plate, and they could leave.

Li Dequan didn't think about it, the emperor guessed it right, and the soup couldn't fit, so he quickly called the little eunuch and moved another table.

Some people have already sent them off for the second time, looking at the door of the imperial study with anxious eyes, but the emperor just won't come out.

Especially Wei Xiang'er, who looked sad for the spring and autumn, the emperor is becoming more and more indifferent to her now.

He lingered in front of the imperial study room, refusing to leave, his eyes full of resentment.

As soon as Ling Xiao opened the door, Wei Xiang'er looked surprised and was about to rush over, but was stopped by Huo Chengjun who was delivering the soup for the third time.

"Sister, what are you doing?" Huo Chengjun let go of her belt, and saluted Ling Xiao gracefully.
