I wish for a long time

Ye Jiu looked at the spearhead with a cold light in front of him, his eyes slowly swept from one side, and he quietly took a breath.

A dark red figure paced over from the side, and that figure was very familiar to her.

Ye Jiu closed his eyes, his voice was hoarse:

"Xiao Lanfeng, it's really you."

Hearing this, the man turned around, his brown leather armor was shining brightly in the sunlight, like a god descending from the mortal world.

"It seems that you have guessed it."

Ye Jiu clenched his fists and opened his eyes. In front of him, Xiao Lanfeng looked as quiet and elegant as under the crabapple tree, but at this moment, in her opinion, he was no different from a hungry wolf in sheep's clothing.

She thought for a moment, then chuckled, "If I'm not mistaken, your master has already gone to the Rihua Palace."

The Rihua Palace is the place where the emperor changes clothes and rests during the palace ceremonies on weekdays. Generally, the emperor will go there to rest for a while when he feels unwell or sobers up.

Xiao Lanfeng smiled, "Even now, Xiao Jiu still cares about His Majesty, he is really loyal and patriotic."

There was a trace of disdain in Ye Jiu's eyes, but in the next second, she seemed to suddenly think of something, her voice trembling, "Xiao Lanfeng, you..."

Xu understood what Ye Jiu was thinking, Xiao Lanfeng smiled evilly, "Don't worry, as long as you are honest and obedient, I guarantee that none of their hair will fall out."

Ye Jiu seemed to have fallen into an ice cave in an instant, and his whole body was cold.

Shao'er and second uncle took the permission to leave the city from him, so...

"Xiao Shoubei, why are you talking nonsense with him? This Marquis of Zhenyuan has always been scheming, so be careful to be tricked by her."

A man in a red robe embroidered with silver came out from the side, and the guards on both sides cupped their hands, "Lord Qiu."

Qiu Xinchi looked Ye Jiu up and down, Danfeng's eyes were narrow and narrow, and there was a faint smile on his face.

Ye Jiu looked at the man standing in front of him with his hands behind his back, and gradually clenched his fists, "Your Majesty is so vigorous in rectifying Zhuge, but he still hasn't caught you, a fish that slipped through the net."

Qiu Xinchi chuckled, "Qiu is sincere, what the Marquis of Zhenyuan said will kill me."

Ye Jiu smirked, "Just looking for a way out for myself, you can save yourself, but if you make a slight mistake today, I will definitely admire your heads on the gate tower tomorrow."

Qiu Xinchi's face turned cold, and he shouted coldly: "You dare to be stubborn when you are about to die, what are you all doing in a daze, why don't you detain him!"

Ye Jiu was twisted by the shoulders of the soldiers, she stared at the two people in front of her, gritted her teeth and said in a deep voice: "As long as I have breath, I will not spare you."

……

Rihua Palace.

More than a dozen candles were quietly inserted into the candlesticks, and the silent hall was brightly lit.A gust of wind blew by, the flames flickered, and the figures on the illuminated bed swayed.

"Chu Shiyan, you are so courageous!"

Chu Shishen was lying on the bed, his eyes staring straight at him, and after only saying a few words, he was already panting faintly.

On the white wall, an apparently low black figure slowly moved over, accompanied by the creaking sound of wood rubbing against each other.

Sitting in a wheelchair, King Xian looked at the ferocious Chu Shishen with a faint smile, and closed his eyes lovingly.

"Sixth brother, let me say one sentence less, I think you still have a lot to ask me, you probably don't want to waste the opportunity on these vulgar and useless words."

Chu Shishen stretched out his hand tremblingly, but he didn't even touch the robe of the virtuous king, and it fell down feebly.

"You've been lying to me."

There was a trace of surprise on King Xian's face. He raised his arm and looked at him in astonishment, "Isn't this obvious?"

Afterwards, he put away his exaggerated expression, with a cold light in his eyes, "I just lied to you, from the beginning to the end, I lied to you."

Chu Shishen's fingertips trembled slightly when he heard the words, and he felt his throat constantly churning, and he suppressed the fishy-sweet taste with all his strength.

"I'm so anxious, that's not okay. I have to tell my sixth brother about the political achievements I have accumulated through hard work over the years."

The virtuous king lightly smiled and straightened his sleeves. Looking at the flickering candles, his cynical face was covered with a quiet and weird expression. He smiled slightly and said slowly:

"But the story is so long, where do I start?"

"Let's start from two years ago, when you were far away in Suzhou, but my silly third brother quietly reached out to me."

Xu Shi also knew that struggling was hopeless, Chu Shishen gradually calmed down at this time, only a pair of light brown pupils stared obsessively at the virtuous king.

King Xian didn't take it seriously, and his tone was still relaxed, "Father has six sons, except for the youngest seventeenth brother, the only ones who survived are you and King Mu."

"At that time, the royal father was still in good health and healthy. Although he was over a hundred years old, he hadn't discussed the matter of establishing a crown prince. The ministers speculated privately, but the royal father never responded directly."

"Because he has some considerations in his heart, and wants me and my third brother to restrict each other and consume each other, so as to maintain the balance in the court."

King Mu's eyes gradually turned cold, he glanced at Chu Shishen's stubborn eyes, and smiled contemptuously, "But my third brother, who is stupid and stupid, wants to break this balance, sending people close to my trusted ministers, and even putting eyeliner on him. Put it next to me."

King Xian rubbed his knees lightly, his feet landed on the ground, and suddenly stood up slowly.

Chu Shishen's eyes widened for a moment, and then, a feeling of despair crept up his brows.

Seeing this, King Xian smiled slightly, "Oh, did I forget to tell you that the reason why you are lying here and letting me handle it is not as simple as the wine you drink."

Chu Shishen was startled: "It's not wine, what else is there?"

"It seems that the sixth brother is very satisfied with Wang Taiji's Anshen Decoction."

Chu Shishen's face turned pale, only to hear the Xian Wang with a slight smile on his face, and his voice was gentle like the wind, "The Wunian grass in the Anshen Tang meets the Wuwanghua in the wine, and it can be comatose and crazy, or die on the spot. .But I think the sixth brother is lucky, and he can still catch up with me here now."

Chu Shishen's teeth itched in anger, but the strength in his whole body seemed to be drained, and he couldn't do anything except stare and grit his teeth.

The wise king paced slowly, his thoughts drifted away again, "Since the third brother is unkind, then don't blame me for being unrighteous as an elder brother. When I knew that he wanted to secretly report my private expropriation of land and embezzlement of salary to the emperor , I decided to strike first.”

"I used a spy to pass on the news that I was going to poison my third brother with a banquet. The third brother was really fooled. He brought a large number of hidden guards that day, and even invited the Marquis Zhongyi and the emperor's uncle to arrest me on the spot. However, I However, he took this opportunity to throw all the blame for expropriating land and stealing money on my trusted ministers, and then picked myself clean."

Chu Shishen frowned slightly, he didn't expect that there would be such a secret behind the uproar back then.

"The confidant you are talking about is Qi Zhengze, the former Minister of the Ministry of Officials?"

Seeing that the virtuous king did not respond, Chu Shishen asked again, "Why him?"

No matter what the officials say, it is an extremely critical part of manpower deployment, and he doesn't understand why the virtuous king would give up such an important pawn.

The Xian King chuckled, he paused, and said in a serious tone: "That old fellow Qi Zhengze, although he supports me, always tells me what to do. .”

There was a trace of shock in Chu Shishen's eyes, and his lips trembled slightly, as if he hadn't reacted to the waywardness of King Xian.

The Xian Wang seemed to have thought of something, and didn't want to continue this topic, turned around and said: "The third brother thought that this action would completely destroy all obstacles on his way to succession, but he didn't know that the more unimpeded, the more he will Arouse the suspicion of the royal father."

The Xian King smiled sarcastically, "Father's health is getting worse and worse, but he still refuses to let go, and the foolish boy of the third brother still thinks that he has a chance to win, and he is trying to recruit officials in the court, but he doesn't know that I have infiltrated my power into the palace. beside him."

He looked at Chu Shishen's thirsty gaze, and shook his head helplessly, "It's just that neither my third brother nor I expected that the emperor father would pass on the throne to you in the end."

"A martial artist who seldom gets involved in court and is far away in Suzhou."

Chu Shishen turned his head slightly, as if he was very dissatisfied with his adjective, but he couldn't stand up and slap him, his cheeks turned red.

"I just reacted when I learned that my father was secretly sending people south, but it was too late for me to show up at that time, so I secretly urged the staff in his house to encourage him to assassinate you secretly. The third younger brother of Ant does not hesitate to use relatives and old friends, and to use extreme methods to kill you outside the imperial city."

Chu Shishen's eyes were slightly cold, and he looked at him without saying a word.

King Xian continued: "However, I didn't expect you to survive it, and even ascended to the throne under the protection of the emperor. My third younger brother, who seemed to be impatient, also secretly gave me a hand. "

He smiled, "It's just that I also gave him a big gift."

Chu Shishen narrowed his eyes, and said softly, "What you said was the case of Guo Wenxin, the former Minister of Household Affairs, who was corrupted by ink?"

Xian Wang seemed to be tired from walking, and sat back on the wheelchair, "I just sent people to incite the victims who were about to starve to find a place to ask for justice, and when the Marquis of Zhenyuan found the blacksmith shop, I handed over a knife That's all."

Chu Shishen pursed his lips and frowned.

If these disaster victims hadn't come to the capital, the Jingzhao Mansion and the officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs had been protecting each other, the people's grievances had deepened, and a paper of complaint was handed over to the imperial court, I am afraid Guo Wenxin would not have pleaded guilty so readily.

He always thought that it was God's blessing, and he managed to solve it successfully with a little trick, but it turned out that he had taken over the sharp knife from someone else.

Chu Shishen felt a chill down his spine for a moment, fortunately he was still sympathetic to the Xian King after hemiplegia, but he did not expect that his elder brother was so deep in his thoughts.

"Fang Weihong's case was finally found by Zhenyuanhou Hou, but I knew that it was not the best time for me to fight back, so I used my plan and played the trick from two years ago again."

As he spoke, he burst out laughing, "It's ridiculous that no one found out. Even the extremely intelligent Marquis Zhenyuan sent people to monitor me for more than a month, and then removed them."

Chu Shishen was a little curious for a moment, he was there that day, even Lou Cheng and other veterans were there, how could he manage to hide it?

But it only took a moment for him to understand.

At that time, the imperial physician who treated him was Wang Jin, and he was also the doctor who asked for pulse adjustment later, so the two of them were cheating under their noses.

Chu Shishen finally turned his head away, he didn't want to admit that these words and deeds of the Xian Wang really made him very embarrassing.

The majestic lord of a country, the beliefs of the people in Kangsheng, has been manipulated in the palm of his hand without knowing it, and he is still thinking about how to make up for him.

Xian Wang took a glance and saw through his thoughts, and brought up another topic, "Aren't you very curious, what happened in the palace that day?"

Sure enough, Chu Shishen turned his head quickly, his eyes widened.

The virtuous king smiled faintly, his thin lips curled up at an angle, looking gentle and refined.

"It's a good thing to separate the monarch and his ministers, and hit the third brother hard—"

"How could it be without me?"

The author has something to say: That's right, the boss is the virtuous king, the best bad one, come on, let's cast aside him!
