I was kicked out of the house, and I was reborn and became the emperor

One month later.

Fang Yi came to the capital alone.

Along the way, he experienced three kills.

Several soldiers accompanying him were even poisoned to death.

He didn't understand who was trying so hard to kill him.

If he hadn't been alert, he probably wouldn't have made it to the capital to receive his title.

……

At this time, in the Sixth Prince's Mansion, dusk was falling and the lights were dim, but there was an undercurrent in the mansion.

The Sixth Prince Yang Jingyu and the Prime Minister's son Shangguan Ba ​​sat opposite each other in a secret room. The flickering candlelight made their faces, which were either bright or dark, appear particularly profound.

Shangguan Ba ​​took a sip of tea, his eyes flickering with an unfathomable light, and slowly spoke: "I heard that Fang Yi finally stepped into the threshold of the capital."

Hearing this, a complex emotion flashed across Yang Jingyu's brows. He sighed softly, as if he was helpless about his fate: "Alas, it seems that he is indeed not destined to die."

Shangguan Ba's curiosity was completely aroused, and he asked anxiously, "Your Highness, do you really think that Fang Yi has something to do with His Majesty?"

Facing Shangguan Ba's question, Yang Jingyu shook his head and pulled a bitter smile at the corner of his mouth.

"If we can really confirm it, it would save us a lot of trouble. This news came from Wen Xi. You know that Wen Xi has followed our father for many years. His words must be taken seriously."

Shangguan Ba ​​frowned slightly, full of suspicion: "Wen Xi has always been loyal to Your Majesty, why would he suddenly turn around and help you pass on the message?"

Yang Jingyu laughed when he heard this, with a hint of pride in his voice.

"Of course I don't have the ability to ask him to do this. But my mother can! As the current imperial concubine, it was my mother who helped Wenxi when he was in trouble. Wenxi still remembers this kindness. This time, it was my mother who asked for it personally."

Shangguan Ba ​​suddenly understood and nodded in agreement: "So it is true. However, Fang Yi seems to be quite resourceful, and he was able to survive three assassination attempts."

The Sixth Prince is a vengeful person.

He failed to win over Fang Yi last time, and now he holds a grudge against him. Then Wen Xi brings more news.

It was said that Fang Yi was 70% similar to Emperor Taining when he was young, and considering Fang Yi's age, Yang Jingyu couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Yang Jingyu's eyes turned cold, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "This prince does not believe that he can be lucky all his life. Since he can't be used by me, there is no need to waste time, just get rid of him directly!"

……

Inside the Prince's Mansion at this time.

The light reflected the curious and slightly playful face of the eldest prince Yang Jingchou.

He was dressed in brocade clothes, sitting on a rosewood throne with a dragon carved on it. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle, and he was asking questions to the person in front of him in an almost casual manner.

This person is the famous Minister of War - Xuanyuan Chenghua, a young talent who is only five years older than Yang Jingchou. However, because the person standing behind him is the famous minister and palace tutor Xuanyuan Hongru, Yang Jingchou has to treat him as a teacher.

"Teacher, is what you said true?"

Yang Jingchou's voice was low and magnetic, and his words contained a hint of disbelief and careful consideration.

His fingers tapped lightly on the armrest, as if weighing the weight of each word.

"The Shangguan family actually turned to support Sixth Brother?"

Xuanyuan Chenghua nodded solemnly, with a barely perceptible hint of pride in his eyes.

"It is certain. This news has been confirmed by my father himself. The Shangguan family's position is clear. They stand on the side of the Sixth Prince."

Hearing this, Yang Jingchou curled up the corner of his mouth into a sneer, which contained both disdain and ruthlessness.

"Shangguan Ba ​​is old, but he is still a cunning old fox. Since he wants to help that brat seize my throne, humph, let him see who is the real master of this country!"

Xuanyuan Chenghua was well aware of Yang Jingchou's ambition and determination, and there was no need to explain the tacit understanding between the two.

He took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire: "Not only that, it is said that the Shangguan family not only surrendered to the Sixth Prince, but also intended to instigate him to secretly attack important officials in the court!"

Yang Jingchou's eyes suddenly lit up, as if a bright lamp was lit in the dim room.

"Oh? In that case, this is a great gift. Tell me, who is that court official who can make Sixth Brother join hands with the Shangguan Family?"

"This man's name is Fang Yi. He was born in the northern border area and he once single-handedly killed the enemy leader Nurhaci."

There was a hint of admiration in Xuanyuan Chenghua's tone that was hard to conceal, even though the other party might now have become a common enemy.

"Fang Yi..."

Yang Jingchou frowned. This name made him involuntarily think of the various rumors about battlefield legends.

"That legendary god of war? If I can use him, he will be even more powerful!"

“Whether we can win him over is still unknown, but a rift has already arisen between him and the Sixth Prince. This is a great opportunity for us,” Xuanyuan Chenghua analyzed, his words revealing hints of calculation.

"Well, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. That's true."

Yang Jingchou pondered for a moment and made up his mind.

"Find an opportunity to get close to Fang Yi and find out his intentions. At the same time, leak the news that Sixth Brother intends to assassinate him. This can not only alienate the relationship between Fang Yi and Sixth Brother, but also sow seeds of suspicion throughout the government and the public."

As the plan was finalized, the two looked at each other and smiled. In that smile were hidden endless plans and calculations.

……

Bathed in the dawn rays, the capital of the Great Zhou looked exceptionally solemn and splendid. The magnificent palace seemed to be coated with a layer of mysterious glow under the reflection of the morning sun.

Today's court is not only a place where power and majesty gather, but also the focus of everyone's attention, because today, there is a name that blows through the court and the country like a spring breeze, causing ripples in the hearts of every power-seeker - Fang Yi.

The day of the court meeting was as solemn and dignified as usual, but there was an unusual atmosphere in the air.

The ministers were dressed in gorgeous official uniforms and stood in an orderly manner. They appeared calm on the surface, but undercurrents were surging in their hearts.

Their eyes met from time to time, exchanging complex information, and they were all speculating whether the upcoming "Loyal and Brave Earl" Fang Yi really had the power to turn the world around as rumored by the outside world.

Eunuch Wenxi's unique and shrill voice broke the silence of the court.

"Xuanzhong Yongbo Fang Yi entered the palace to meet the saint!"

This voice seemed to carry an invisible force that made everyone present straighten their backs involuntarily, and even the air seemed to solidify a little.

Fang Yi's attire today was exceptionally elegant. He wore silver-scale armor that had been used to show his military prowess, and a brocade robe as deep as the night. The lapel of his robe was decorated with a pattern of soaring dragons in gold thread, making him look majestic yet elegant.

His steps were steady and powerful, and each step landed on the bluestone slabs of the hall, and the echo seemed to contain the momentum of thousands of troops.

Almost at the same moment, several old ministers with gray hair and beards turned their gazes to the almighty Emperor Taining, their eyes filled with surprise, suspicion and even awe.

Whispers rose and fell. One of the voices was small but clearly audible: "They are so similar! They look like they were carved from the same mold!"

These simple words, however, echoed over the court like thunder, shocking people's hearts.
