Keep in mind our website and wish you all a happy reading!Don't forget to spread the word.

On a day in midwinter, most of the people imprisoned in the clan mansion were the royal family members who had committed crimes. Although it would not be perfunctory to put a bed of stone, a bed of straw, and an oil lamp that was not extinguished, it was nothing compared to rich clothes and good food. mansion.

Just after stepping into the courtyard, an old maidservant with handicap brought a pot of charcoal fire, and walked past the two of them—the pungent and smoky smell rushed to the face, choking Rou Ke with tears in her eyes.

Pushing open the door, I saw King Sheng sitting on the couch holding a scroll in his hand, with a white face and slight beard, sword eyebrows and star eyes, still wearing a tuanlong robe, which made him more upright and upright, with the demeanor of a refined gentleman.

"Xiao Rouke?" Seeing the visitor, King Sheng looked happy, put down the scroll and got up from the couch, smoothed his robes, found two stools that did not fall dust with great difficulty, and invited her to sit down.

Rou Ke was choked by the inferior charcoal fire before she recovered her senses, coughed for a while before laughing and said: "Uncle Wang still has time to read?"

Upon hearing this, King Sheng smiled: "What else can I do here besides reading?" He looked at Tang Ci who was sitting next to Rou Ke with his head bowed, and asked, "But what is the future of my little Rou Ke? Husband? A manly man, why are you so shy, you don’t even allow people to see your face?"

The more calm and unwavering his slow attitude, as if the imminent death is not, the more Tangci recalled Uncle Cheng who used to play with her two more than ten years ago and always took the blame for her. Young and energetic, under this situation, he was smothered by the charcoal fire and honestly, couldn't hold back for a while, shed a few tears, slid down, dripped on the crimson official robe, and became dizzy.

King Sheng panicked, hurriedly opened the window, opened the door, called the servant girl, and took away the charcoal brazier——

The maidservant did as she said, and after closing the door, she felt a little refreshed after all.

King Sheng wiped off his cold sweat, walked up to Tangci, handed a handkerchief, and said softly, "Don't cry, I don't want people to cry when I urinate, both men and women are like this, especially for beautiful people-- --"

"Uncle Wang..." King Sheng was stunned, looked at Rou Ke, and saw that she was sitting peacefully, only then knew that the cry came from Tang Ci, so he responded with a smile: "You are not married yet, you are a monkey." In a hurry..."

"Uncle Wang..." Tang Ci's soft call cut off King Sheng's words, and he couldn't help responding softly: "Hey, Uncle Wang is here."

The enthusiasm of Tangci's niece and son-in-law really surprised King Cheng, and suddenly he was thrown into his arms by a boy, and King Cheng completely stayed where he was. When he looked at Rou Ke, he saw her get up quietly and go out the door I went, but didn't leave, I just stood under the eaves, and the shadow was reflected on the window paper after the bleak sunlight.

"Uncle Wang..." Tang Ci's eyes were completely red from crying, and he knelt down on the ground, sobbing in a low voice, blaming himself blindly, "I'm useless, I can't save you."

Qin Yan told her that the emperor did not expect this trick. The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty did not dare to stand up because the emperor had not completely let go of his guard since he ascended the throne. All of them wished that they were all newcomers to Zhen Qiluyi in the first year of Chunyou. Advise her not to be the first bird at this critical juncture.

Furthermore, the evidence is conclusive, how can we defend it? How can we save it?

King Sheng was at a loss when he heard this, and after thinking about it, he said to her: "It's good that you have this kind of heart, but this matter has nothing to do with you, you don't need to save me and you don't need to feel ashamed about it..."

"I'm Ah Yue..." Tang Ci said in a low voice with tears in his eyes.

King Sheng's mind went blank, and he was so dazed that he could barely remember who Ayue was, so he immediately squatted down, held her shoulders, and looked her face carefully from top to bottom, feeling helpless. Confidently murmured: "You...you are Ah Yue?"

Tang Ci nodded, because Rou Ke was guarding outside, so he just lowered his voice and told the whole story: "Twelve years ago, Commander Liu of the Shangzhi Guards was ordered by my mother to lead soldiers to escort me and the crown prince. The younger brother and younger sister Hanshan rushed out from Yemen, fought their way to the ferry, boarded a boat and headed to a remote place in Yunzhou. Unexpectedly, when they reached the Lancang River, they suddenly encountered river bandits, and then pursued soldiers came , Three groups of men and horses fought in a melee, someone accidentally set fire to the ship, and when the flames were soaring into the sky, it was easy to distinguish people's faces. At that time, Commander Liu was already covered with several wounds, but he still rushed to the cabin, holding the collars of the three of us , threw us into the water before the flames spread. Then..."

"On the second day, the chief envoy of Yunzhou sent people to salvage along the river, but found nothing. On the third day, the bodies of His Royal Highness and Hanshan were found. How about you, where did you go?"

Tang Ci smiled miserably: "Perhaps I should not die. My whole body was softly pillowed on a piece of driftwood. I met a shoal along the water flow. The driftwood hit a rock and stopped me there. Wake up After coming here, it is empty and far away in the mountains and dense forests, and there are few people."

The little girl who used to be mischievous and got into trouble hadn't been seen for many years, and she suddenly turned into this fair, beautiful and delicate man in front of him. King Sheng looked at her for a long time, and his eyes were filled with distress, regret, complaints, and self-blame... In the end, with only peace of mind and stability left, he patted her on the shoulder and said with a slight smile: "Okay, very good. If you survive a catastrophe, you will have future blessings. My little Ayue is really not a person with poor fortune."

It's a good thing to be alive.

Even, sometimes, life is better than death.

You must know that there are still many people in the world who want to give birth but cannot give birth, and the world is always in this way.

His eyes unconsciously caught a glimpse of the civil servant's patch on her chest, and his body was soaked in cold sweat instantly. King Sheng couldn't help but asked in a trembling voice: "Why...why are you pretending to be a man? You're still with Xiao Rouke..."

"Could it be that Uncle Wang can't figure it out?" Tang Ci smiled again, with tears still on his face, and the heat from his breath was separated between the two of them, like a gap that had spanned 13 years, "Qi Wang Shi Shouldn't I kill my brother for seizing the throne? King Qi's vain attempt to kill my brother and take away my sister-in-law should not be executed? King Qi killed many of my brothers and sisters--now, even you have to kill in vain..."

"It's not killing in vain."

Tang Ci froze suddenly, she watched King Cheng's lips move slightly, her voice was soft and soft, the same as when she was a child, but she uttered a secret that she didn't expect: "The armor and equipment are real, although the dragon robe I don't know who is hiding in my house, but I do intend to rebel."

"Three years ago, I was already planning this matter by claiming that I would not return from my illness. I had this intention for a long time. 12 years ago, when I was [-] years old, I went out of Beijing. Unexpectedly, after a long time, the world has changed. This appearance, I have never even seen the last side of the emperor. The emperor treated me so well at that time. Although he was not good at martial arts, he was often praised by the ministers. I took him as an example since I was a child. Leave it to me to be a vassal. I wholeheartedly want to work hard together with the three divisions in Xuzhou, so that Xuzhou roads will not be picked up and closed at night. Unexpectedly, before I arrived in Xuzhou, news came that the new emperor's enthronement year had changed. King Qi... "Prince Cheng was so angry that his veins were bulging, and he held his breath for a long time before he said, "It's moral! It's corrupt to the ethics, and it can't treat the emperor's brother's orphan well. That child, An Ning, has been tossed into what he is now. Why don't you tell me? Are you angry?!"

"Uncle Wang..." Tang Ci was shocked and sad.What was shocking was that the always peaceful and gentle King Sheng actually had the heart of rebellion, and what was sad was that he played a dangerous move, but now there was almost no way out.

Seeing her crying again, King Cheng wiped her with a towel, and smiled sadly: "I don't even cry for dying people, why are you crying? Such a beautiful child, you should smile more." He Sighing again, she raised her hand to smooth her frowning brows, "I thought the plot was flawless, but I underestimated that the emperor has firmly controlled the huge country in his hands in just a few decades. There is not a breath of wind between your fingers. Listen to Uncle Wang's persuasion, King Qi should be killed and punished, but it is not something you can do..."

"Of course I can't do it alone!" Tang Ci said anxiously, "I have Qin Yan to help me in Wen, and Xu Qian in Wu. I'm not a gangster. Is it true that there is no hope at all?"

King Cheng smiled lightly and pinched her nose: "I haven't finished speaking yet, what are you in a hurry for?" He looked at the official robe she was wearing and nodded, "At your age, you can rank third rank It's not easy. The county horse matter should be the idea of ​​that girl Rou Ke?"
