The happy coffin is opened, all ghosts disperse, the princess comes from hell

Prince Hui's Mansion.

Princess Hui also received news from the palace, and the old emperor ordered to summon King Hui to the court.

Princess Hui looked calm and did not reveal her fault. She asked the family to prepare the carriage and horses quickly, and then went to find King Hui.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, King Hui's round body came out, rushed forward and hugged her arm: "Princess, what is the situation now?"

The word "fear of death" was written all over King Hui's face.

Princess Hui was much calmer than him. She tried to pull his trotters apart, but to no avail, she stopped struggling and said quickly:

"The barbarian envoys arrived unexpectedly. His Majesty summoned you to the court. He said nothing else."

"The eunuch who came today to deliver the order was too respectful. He left the order and left. My lord, please don't delay and enter the palace as soon as possible."

"No, I can't! I'm afraid!" King Hui shook his head wildly: "I don't know anything about the situation, why should I enter the palace! Why did the foreign envoy enter the capital again?"

"Besides, did your father summon me into the palace? What he summoned was the monster who wanted to take away my body!"

Princess Hui was exhausted mentally and physically, and she had no choice but to deal with such a useless man.

"With the shadow guard left by King Yan here, what are you afraid of? At the critical moment, you don't need to use your brain, it will take over your body."

King Hui was still shaking his head. The palace is now a den of tigers and wolves. Who can say for sure whether the shadow is reliable or not.

If the secret is revealed, he will be gone forever!

Suddenly, King Hui's body became motionless.

Princess Hui noticed something and saw the man's figure suddenly appeared.

Although this was not the first time she saw Xiao Chenyan acting so 'elusive', Princess Hui still couldn't help but her heart was beating fast.

King Hui next to him also arched his body and let out a 'meow', which was obviously the shadow cat getting upper body.

"If the matter is urgent, Uncle Wang must enter the palace immediately."

Xiao Chenyan's voice was calm, "Fourth Aunt, everything is as usual, please send Fourth Uncle out quickly."

Princess Hui nodded quickly, and when she saw Xiao Chenyan coming, her worries were half relieved.

Xiao Chenyan looked at Shadow King Hui: "After entering the palace, don't show your flaws."

Shadow King Hui: "Master, don't worry, meow~"

When Princess Hui heard the cat meow, her heart became relieved again.

Is this shadow cat really reliable?

To Dayong's civil and military officials, the news that the Hu envoys had arrived in Beijing was undoubtedly like thunder.

All civil and military officials were summoned to the court in a hurry. In the Qingtian Palace, the courtiers were in a daze when they saw the old emperor sitting on the dragon throne.

Only officials of fifth rank or above can enter the Qingtian Palace. What is funny is that many officials who have been promoted in recent years have met Tianyan for the first time today.

For the old minister, the shock he received after meeting the old emperor today was also quite big.

Many veterans' impressions of the old emperor remained in the image of an old man with gray hair and chicken skin but a majestic appearance. However, the old emperor had not been seen for a long time, and his white hair had turned into blue silk.

Although her skin is still loose, she looks at least ten years younger.

Many people exchanged glances.

Before, the courtiers thought it was nonsense that the old emperor sought immortality in seclusion, but now it seems that he has actually cultivated something?

There was an undercurrent surging in the Qingtian Palace. The old emperor sat high in the temple without saying a word, taking in all the expressions of the civil and military officials in his eyes, but his eyes were filled with indifference.

After seeing another world and witnessing the power of gods and ghosts, the struggle for power in the mortal world is so boring.

The so-called powerful ministers and emperors in the world are nothing but ants and mustard seeds in front of the mighty power of ghosts and gods.

The calmness in the old emperor's eyes finally became troubled after King Hui entered the palace.

Looking at the round body of his fourth son, a flash of jealousy flashed in the old emperor's eyes.

With such an unkempt appearance and as stupid as a pig's son, he got the favor of Lord Wu Peng, surpassed him in terms of blood inheritance, and became Lord Wu Peng's vessel.

The old emperor was really jealous.

But he also understood that it was not his stupid son Xiao Si who was coming now, but Wu Peng.

Therefore, the old emperor quickly concealed the jealous look in his eyes and returned to his pure-hearted and stoic look that sees through the power in the world.

"Today I summon all my dear friends to the court to announce four things."

"First, the envoys of the Hu people came to the capital, hoping to establish a hundred-year relationship with me, Dayong. From then on, the two tribes turned their hostility into friendship."

As soon as this statement came out, the courtiers became excited.

Especially the military commanders, with mocking expressions on their faces, some couldn't help but whisper: "The Hu people have long been defeated by King Yan, can I, Dayong, make peace with them?"

There are many people who have this view. A general wanted to stand up and give advice, but the old emperor didn't even look at it and continued:

"I have agreed to this matter."

All the civil and military officials were shocked. Their faces were uglier than eating shit?

Is this accepted? Is there any mistake?

Even if you want the same thing, you can't be so understated and don't mention any conditions!

All civil and military officials were in an uproar. Even those civil servants who didn't want to see Xiao Chenyan were all filled with hatred and panic. Why is King Yan not in the capital? !

The old emperor continued to talk to himself: "Secondly, the envoy from the Hu people came here to explain something."

When he said this, the old emperor paused and his face became gloomy.

"Ten years ago, during the battle in Beiye, the marquis of Zhenguo did not collaborate with the enemy and betray the country. Instead, the prince colluded with the criminal minister Yun Houxing, betrayed information to the Hu people's court, framed the marquis of Zhenguo, and caused the tragic death of one hundred thousand soldiers of Dayong in the north. !”

As soon as the news came out, it was like thunder, exploding in the court hall.

The ministers felt so dizzy that they could not even hear clearly what the old emperor said next.

Until the old emperor mentioned that Princess Qingnuo, the only orphan in the Zhenguo Hou Mansion, was being held as a hostage in the Hu Ren Wang Ting. This time the Hu Ren Wang Ting wanted to reconcile with Dayong and prepared to send the princess back to Dayong.

In the past, princeling officials would have come out to express their opinions and complain on behalf of their master.

But now, the former princelings have long since fallen and dispersed, and the prince is still lying in the East Palace, breathing a sigh of relief.

Furthermore, when the crimes of Yun Houxing, Wang Sheng and others were exposed, many people suspected that the unjust case in the Zhenguo Hou Mansion was related to the prince.

Therefore, the entire palace was completely silent, and no one spoke about the prince for a moment.

The old emperor said one last thing:

"Thirdly, the prince colluded with foreign tribes and harmed the country. He is really not worthy of being a prince. The deposed prince will be sent to Dali Temple from now on. The young minister of Dali Temple, Xie Shu, will investigate and deal with all his gang members."

"Fourth, the king of Hui serves as the acting crown prince, temporarily managing the affairs of the court and having full authority to receive envoys."

The imperial edicts fell one after another, like thunder one after another, and the civil and military forces of the court were overwhelmed.

However, the old emperor acted like an outsider. After issuing the imperial edict in an autocratic manner, he announced his withdrawal from the court and only allowed King Hui to have an audience alone.

The civil and military officials throughout the dynasty felt a lump of depression in their chests, and all they could think of was 'ridiculous'.

This sense of absurdity has existed since the late prince burned himself on fire and the old emperor began to seek immortality and ignore government affairs. It has reached its peak today.

After retreating from the court, an old official left with a laugh that sounded like madness and a voice that sounded like weeping:

"The affairs of family and country are like child's play, such child's play. We are just the clowns on the stage, singing along with us in this play, hahaha! Child's play, what a child's play!!"

"I can't stand this show any longer!"

As the old minister said this, he flicked his official hat, took off his official uniform, and left straight away.

Huo Yi stepped forward without saying a word, picked up the old man's official hat, and left.

Xie Shu stood in the hall with a cold expression. His colleagues next to him were sighing. Someone asked him:

"Young Master has always been outspoken and dared to give advice. Why are you silent today?"

Xie Shu didn't respond, seeming to be in a daze.

In today's court, is it still necessary to speak out and dare to remonstrate?

Those who sit high in the temple have no interest in the country. His Majesty regards the common people as ants and grass, just like the court is a game of chess, and the civil and military officials of the dynasty are just playthings in his eyes.

A king is not a king, a person is not a human being, they are all just fish and meat.

However, since the old emperor asked him to investigate the fact that the deposed prince had collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, there was no reason why he should not investigate.

Xie Shu looked towards the empty dragon chair, lowered his eyes, and hid the coldness in his eyes.

He knew what he could do for Xiao Chenyan...
