miscalculation

Xiao Jue knelt in front of the hall with his hair down and his boots off, kowtowed and said: "My son thinks that he is not talented enough to be the master of the East Palace. I hope that the emperor will allow this son to let me choose good talents from among the other princes."

Xiao Yigang was discussing the war in the northern region with several important officials, so he sent an order for the prince to come and discuss it together.Unexpectedly, when he came in, he pulled his hair crown, dragged his shoes and boots, knelt there and said such words.Several ministers were so frightened that they hurriedly resigned, leaving only Xiao Yi there.

Trembling with anger but helpless, he pushed back everyone on the left and right, looked at this useless son, resisted the urge to step forward and kick him to death, and said, "Jue'er, what are you doing?"

Xiao Jue didn't change his expression, he just said: "Father, I hope you have approved my son's request."

Xiao Yi overturned the entire table and said: "Since ancient times, there has never been a prince who asked to resign. Just now you deliberately did such an outrageous thing in front of all the ministers. Even if I don't promise you Please, will all the ministers be willing to assist you? What is the difference between whether I agree or not?"

Xiao Jue said: "It's my son who is not filial, and I hope the emperor will calm down his anger."

Xiao Yi sneered and said: "You are not virtuous or filial, you put too many hats on yourself. Tell me honestly, is someone coercing you to do such a thing?"

Xiao Jue said: "No one forced me, everything is done willingly."

Xiao Yi shook his head and said: "Your mother and concubine are still ill. If you know that she has deliberately tried to win the position of the East Palace for you, and you reject it like this, I'm afraid you will die of anger. Anyway, you don't want to treat me anyway. Put it in your eyes, how can you care about your mother and concubine's life?"

Xiao Jue almost knocked his head to the point of bleeding, and said: "My son is not filial, he made my father, mother and concubine sad, my son deserves death."

Xiao Yi said: "The sin deserves ten thousand deaths? You all deserve death for treating your parents like this. Come, send an order immediately, and give a glass of poisoned wine to the sinner Xiao Qian. Do it quickly without delay."

Xiao Jue turned pale with shock, stood up abruptly, and said, "Royal father! What does this matter have to do with elder brother? You are killing me, so why kill elder brother!"

Xiao Yi said: "Ha, if he is dead, you think you will be a prince with peace of mind. Even if you can't be a prince, you will be a good prince."

Xiao Jue's face suddenly changed, and he was anxious, seeing that the messenger had gone out.In desperation, he couldn't care less, so he grabbed the knife hanging in the room and put it around his neck.He said: "Father, you can take back your order, otherwise my son will die in front of you today!"

As he spoke, with only a slight force, a bloodstain appeared on his neck, obviously everything was true and there was no falsehood.

Xiao Yi was anxious but helpless, and said: "You rebellious son! Don't you know that you are really a father and emperor about the matter with Ban Lin! I didn't expect you to give up the crown prince for him, and I can't keep him."

Xiao Jue smiled wryly and said: "Father insists on this, so my son is not filial, I'm afraid it will tire you for a day."

As he spoke, he wanted to raise his knife to kill himself, and Xiao Yi hurriedly shouted: "Zhang Leshi, you can go and recover the order just now."

Xiao Jue knelt on the ground, with tears in his eyes, he said, "Thank you, Royal Father."

Xiao Yi said: "Do you still see me as the emperor in your eyes? Disobeying morals and morals with my brothers, and doing such a rebellious thing, thanks to the fact that you are still the son of the royal family, you are the heir apparent!"

Xiao Jue said: "Father, my son sometimes has doubts, do you really think I am the crown prince? Or, my son is just your shield."

Xiao Yi was at a loss for words for a while, and wanted to say more, but heard the news that King Qin asked to see him.Xiao Liang looked hurried, entered the palace gate, and said: "Father, why do you want to kill elder brother!"

As soon as his words fell, someone from the palace came in and reported: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the sinner Xiao Qian raised his glass and wanted to drink the poisoned wine when he heard that the emperor had given him poisoned wine, but we stopped him. He heard from the person who passed the decree, saying that the prince invited himself Rang Xian actually snatched the poisoned wine and drank it in one gulp. We couldn't stop him, he was already poisoned and died."

Xiao Yi said: "What did you say!"

When Xiao Jue heard about it, he quickly stood up, raised his knife and pierced Xiao Liang's chest, and said, "Okay, since God's will, I, Xiao Jue, will avenge my elder brother!"

He drew out his sword and slayed himself with his backhand, but was knocked to the ground.The secret guard hurriedly went up to touch Xiao Liang's acupoints, the palace servants went to announce the imperial physician, and everyone held Xiao Jue back.

Xiao Yi said: "Come here, immediately carry the King of Qin to my bedroom, and the Xuantai Hospital will come together for consultation. You rebellious son! Why do you want to kill Fengmian! What's wrong with him! You want to take his life?"

Xiao Jue laughed loudly: "Why? Father, you are asking the question knowingly. If he hadn't told the truth, how would you have known about the matter between me and elder brother? If he hadn't deliberately sent someone to tell elder brother that I let Xian, how could elder brother seek death? Obviously yes He has calculated everything and forced me to let Brother Xian Yibao, but now he comes out like this again, he wants to kill them all! What is wrong with me killing him!"

Xiao Yi was dumbfounded and said, "Feng Mian knows about you and Ban Lin?"

When Xiao Jue heard the words, he immediately felt something was wrong, and said, "Didn't he tell Father? Even if he didn't say it himself, as long as you leave some clues, you can still find out. It must be him. Besides him, who else knows?" It's about me and my brother."

Xiao Yi shouted: "Come here, you can put the prince in the sky prison, take care of him day and night, and don't allow him to seek death."

He didn't care about anything else, he just followed the crowd to Gu Xiaoliang.Fortunately, the dark guard reacted quickly, but did not shed too much blood.After the imperial physician arrived, he could check it. The palace was full of fear, and everyone held their breaths.

Xiao Yi's expression was dull, and he sat by the side, his heart was in a mess.He has seven princes, but it is a pity that he has encountered bad luck again and again, and now only Xiao Liang is left who is still able to succeed, if there is also a mistake, what should we do!

Here Ji Lan is still in the dark, in a daze in the mansion, seeing Ji Ze so strangely.Ji Ze said: "Jing Bo, what's the matter with you? What did you talk to King Qin in the morning? Why did he look wrong when he left? You also look out of your mind now."

Ji Lan said: "Brother, don't worry, I'm fine, but suddenly I feel restless. I think I'm a little tired these days."

Ji Ze sighed and said, "After seven days of vigil, you didn't take a good rest. You sat in your room all day long and didn't rest at dawn several times. I sent someone to report earlier. I knew you were sad about the death of your grandfather, so I also It's up to you. But you can't always be like this, even Iron King Kong can't bear such a long toss."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a commotion outside, and someone shouted in the courtyard: "Ji Lan, come out for me, if I don't beat you full of minions today, I, Yun Zhao, swear not to be human."

When Ji Lan heard about it, she hurried out, but saw Yun Zhao standing in the courtyard with an angry face, holding up his sword, and a group of servants behind him were knocked to the ground.

Ji Lan said, "Brother Yun Zhao, why are you here? What happened?"

Yun Zhao said, "You still dare to ask! I'll ask you, what did you say to King Qin, and he vomited blood when he returned home!"

Ji Lan was shocked, and quickly asked: "What? King Qin vomits blood? Where is he now? How is it?"

Yun Zhao shouted: "Don't be hypocritical! Let me tell you, he heard that something happened in the palace, and he refused to rest, and went into the palace. Although he refused to say why, but he came out of your quarter mansion to do this. You are concerned."

Without saying a word, he shook hands with Ji Lan, and the two of them ran around the yard, coming and going.Ji Lan knew that he was wrong, so he didn't dare to use all his strength. In addition, he hadn't rested for several days, which made him even more disadvantaged.

Ji Ze on the side was surprised when he heard their conversation.Seeing that Yun Zhao was extremely angry, he was afraid that Ji Lan would make a mistake, so at the critical moment, he jumped out of Yun Zhao's sword and knocked Yun Zhao down.

Yun Zhao raised his sword and fought again, saying, "You have a real brother, so I'm afraid of you! Come on again, today Yun Zhao won't stop until you vomit blood."

He had just finished speaking when a servant rushed in from outside and said, "Eldest Young Master, Second Young Master, it's not good! The Crown Prince abdicated in the Palace, which angered His Majesty. I don't know what happened, but the Crown Prince stabbed the King of Qin with a sword." .I heard that the King of Qin lost a lot of blood on the spot, staining His Majesty's dragon robe red."

Yun Zhao dropped the sword, lifted the servant's collar, and asked, "What did you say!"

The servant was caught by him, he could barely breathe, he waved his hands again and again, but he couldn't say a word.

Ji Lan quickly pulled them away and asked, "Speak clearly."

The servant said: "Second young master, this matter was reported by the palace, but this old servant doesn't know about the specific situation. I heard that His Majesty, for some reason, immediately issued an order to kill the sinner Xiao Qian."

Ji Ze said: "You should ask someone to inquire again immediately, and report the matter after a thorough investigation."

Seeing Yun Zhao throwing his sword, Ji Lan left, stopped in front of him, knelt on the ground, and said, "Senior Brother Yun Zhao, I can't enter the palace now. If there is anything wrong with King Qin, please send someone to report it."

Yun Zhao sneered and said, "Let me tell you, if King Qin dies, you will pay for it with your life! If he lives, I wish you would stay as far away from him as possible. Don't expect me to send any letters for you, just be yours." Spring and Autumn Dream. Get out of the way, or I will kill you right now!"

As he said that, he went into the palace on his own, leaving Ji Lan alone on his knees.

Ji Ze dismissed his servants, dragged Ji Lan into the inner room, and asked, "Jing Bo, tell Big Brother what happened between you and the King of Qin?"

Ji Lan was already in a state of confusion, and said: "Brother, I will talk about this later, I will go find the rest of Sanhua, and I must find out the news from the palace."

Ji Ze slapped the table and said, "Stop! You are not allowed to go anywhere, not to mention that we have been dismissed now, even if it is still the same as usual, you have to tell me first, what is going on?"

Ji Lan said: "Brother, since you want to say something, I will tell you one by one. The assassin who died in our house that day was none other than my master. And Qin Xin, he is the queen of King Ning. , but also my senior brother. King Qin knows all these things, so you don’t have to doubt that he will be bad for us.”

Ji Ze was shocked: "What are you talking about?"

Ji Lan told Ji Ze everything one by one, including the showdown of his relationship with Xiao Liang.Ji Lan said: "Brother, as long as King Qin is safe, I promise you that you will never see him again. He is also very sad. But I beg you, let me go out to check the news now. If there is anything wrong with him, you Just treat it as if there is no brother like me."

Ji Ze knew that Ji Lan's mind was in a mess, so he said, "Forget it, you go, I won't stop you."

Ji Lan walked out of Ji's mansion step by step, regretting it too late in her heart, if she knew this, why bother to stab him.Thinking of all the things at the border, he became more and more worried about Xiao Liang's safety.After much deliberation, he realized that it was impossible to ask someone to enter the palace, because he often entered the palace gate since he was a child, and he was already a familiar face.The only way now is to go to the doctor's house and wait for them to come back.

Thinking of this, he stepped up and walked, but he heard that the imperial physician had been in the palace for a long time, and he was afraid that he would stay in the palace temporarily.He was very worried, and after thinking about it for a long time, he decided to visit Xiao Jue first.
