Reborn as a King in the Hand
Chapter 35 35
Different from the peaceful night in the palace, the East Palace and the fifth prince's mansion were in turmoil.
The counselors of the two mansions stayed up all night and wrote countless memorials, all trying to kill each other with all their strength.
It's just that the counselors in the East Palace are more busy, because Mu Ruqi not only wants to impeach Mu Rugui, but also wants to drag the fifth prince into the water, killing two birds with one stone.
He racked his brains to sum up the mistakes that Mu Rugui and the fifth prince had made in recent years, and if he couldn't find them, he made them up and ordered them to add them all to the memorial.
During the period, a counselor tentatively asked: "Your Highness, the Ninth Prince has never had a concubine by his side, do you want to send someone to the palace to find out the truth?"
"No need." Mu Ruqi played with the wine cup, and picked up the memorial in front of him drunkenly, "What kind of person is Uncle Jiuhuang, can I not know?"
"...Isn't it just a..." The rest of his words turned into wine hiccups.
The little eunuch ran over from the side, held Mu Ruqi's arm, and persuaded him kindly: "Your Highness, it's time to go to court, let the servant help you change your clothes."
"Yes... yes, change clothes." Mu Ruqi stood up unsteadily, leaning on the little eunuch and walking out of the house.
The white snow reflects the dazzling sky, and the ground is full of brilliance like glass.
Mu Ruqi was blown by the cold wind, and most of him woke up: "What time is it?"
"Don't worry, Your Highness, before arriving at Mao, there is still no movement from His Highness the Fifth Prince."
"Before Maoshi..." Mu Ruqi squinted his eyes, took off the waist badge, and handed it to the little eunuch, "To ensure nothing goes wrong, you enter the palace first with the lonely waist badge, and hand over the memorial to Chang Zhong. Be sure to make sure that the memorial that Royal Father sees first is the one handed over by our East Palace."
The little eunuch took the order, and trotted away holding the crown prince's badge.
"Your Highness, I still feel that... this matter is strange."
Just when Mu Ruqi felt that he was safe, someone among the counselors dared to pour cold water on him.
"What are you?" Mu Ruqi turned his head impatiently, seeing that the person blocking him was a young man who was not yet a weak crown, so he didn't even bother to sarcasm, put his hands in his hands, and looked down condescendingly. Discuss government affairs?"
"Although the minister is young, please listen to the minister's words, Your Highness!"
Mu Ruqi stood lazily in front of the door, not caring what the counselor said, and teased with a smile: "Gu actually needs a child to advise?"
The counselor blushed, and amidst the laughter of the servants, he said bravely, "Your Highness, Empress Qin is my aunt."
"Mother?" The smile on Mu Ruqi's face paused, and when his eyes fell on the counselor again, there was only contempt left, "The decline of the Qin family is not without reason."
The Qin clan is the largest clan in Daliang today, and they used all their strength to push Mu Ruqi to the position of crown prince.
It's not that Mu Ruqi doesn't know how to reciprocate others, but he still remembers that in his previous life, when Mu Rugui rebelled, there were people from the Qin clan around him who gave advice.
The Qin family...not his Mu Ruqi's Qin family, but the Qin family of the Daliang royal family.
They can push him to the throne, or they can help others to bring him down from the supremacy.
He is just a pawn in their power play.
Mu Ruqi followed the rules and followed the rules all his life, with a miserable end, and now he no longer wants to be bound by anything.
He looked at the Qin family and felt bored.
Is it because he doesn't have the appearance of a real dragon emperor, so the Qin family has to find another way early, or is it because the Qin family thinks that the Nine Emperor Uncles will be able to preserve the Qin family's century-old foundation?
Really stupid.
Mu Ruqi didn't bother to argue with Qin Shi any more, and waved his hands to let his servants take the counselor away.
Qin Xuanlang, who was dismissed by Mu Ruqi with a few words, blushed, and amidst the laughter of the servants, he knelt down with a "plop": "Your Highness, the Ninth Prince and the Fifth Prince have no close friendship, how could he be pregnant with his own flesh and blood?" Send your concubine Ji to the residence of His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince?"
"Who told you this news... I suggest a strict investigation!"
Qin Xuanlang's doubts are not unreasonable, but it's a pity that Mu Ruqi is conceited to be reborn and can control his destiny, not only ignores his persuasion, but also drives him out of the East Palace in front of all the counselors.
The young and energetic Qin Xuanlang had never been so humiliated before, trembling with anger, he threw all the pens and papers in his arms on the ground, and walked into the wind and snow without looking back.
Mu Ruqi didn't realize that the one who advised Mu Rugui in his previous life was the "wet" child whom he despises today.
Almost at the same time, a young eunuch riding a horse galloped out from the side door of the East Palace.
A figure also flashed from the fifth prince's mansion.
They raced against time to rush to the imperial city, while Xia Chaosheng in the palace lay sleepily in Mu Rugui's arms.
The winter in Shangjing is always very long.
Xia Chaosheng was preoccupied with something, and woke up at dawn.
He first put his cold hands and feet on Mu Rugui's body, then leaned on Mu Rugui's arm, and turned over carefully.
Outside the vermilion window, goose feathers and heavy snow are flying.
Xia Hua and Qiu Chan seemed to have woken up and were whispering in the courtyard.
It's all about decocting medicine and making soup.
Hearing this, Xia Chaosheng's tongue was bitter, he yawned, and buried his face in Jiushu's neck, slowly thinking that today the court will be bloody, and he doesn't want Jiushu to get involved.
So Xia Chaosheng raised his head, regardless of whether Mu Rugui was awake or not, he directly pressed his cool fingers on Uncle Jiu's cheek.
"Uncle Nine." He sat up under the quilt and called softly, "Uncle Nine?"
Mu Rugui opened his eyes helplessly.
When Xia Chaosheng woke up, Mu Rugui woke up.
It's just that it was still early, and Xia Chaosheng posted it consciously, so he didn't dare to move.
In the early morning, when it is most sensitive, Xia Chaosheng's warm and cool skin is like gurgling water, swimming on Mu Rugui's forearm through the thin fabric.
Even the breathing is shallow and ripples round and round.
Therefore, no matter how turbulent the tide in Mu Rugui's heart was, it could only turn into an undercurrent, turbulently surging.
"Uncle Jiu, let's go to Xuantian Temple." Seeing Mu Rugui's eyes open, Xia Chaosheng immediately leaned over, "I don't know how chaotic it is going to Beijing today."
As he spoke, his hair fell down, and Mu Rugui's cheeks were itchy.
"Uncle Jiu, today the crown prince will definitely impeach you in the court. Let's not go through this muddy water and go outside the city to be clean, okay?"
"Nine..." He didn't get a response, and just about to speak again, he suddenly turned over with a blushing face, huddled under the quilt, and looked at Mu Rugui with a pair of steamy eyes.
Mu Rugui took a light breath, sat up with a wry smile, and reached out to pinch Xia Chaosheng's earlobe before getting down on the bed.
His face turned redder, his eyes drifted away, he hesitated for a while, and then said, "I can do it in the future."
Mu Rugui's gaze was instantly blazing, and he got up energetically, and punched in the courtyard for half an hour, finally waiting for the belated concubine to arrive.
Xia Chaosheng was holding the hand stove, wrapped in a cloak with silver fox fur sewn around the collar, walked to Mu Rugui's side with a smile, and held Uncle Jiu's uninjured hand.
"Let's go." He looked at the sky, "We should have already left the city when the court opened."
Xueluo was silent, and the footprints of the two pairs of cuddling each other soon extended to the outside of the palace.
"Young Lord." Xia Hua and Qiu Chan were already waiting beside the carriage, when they saw Xia Chaosheng approaching, they hurriedly opened the curtain, trying to help him into the carriage.
Mu Rugui moved faster than them.
He picked up Xia Chaosheng and jumped into the carriage with ease.
"Uncle Jiu, what happened to your leg?" Xia Chaosheng couldn't stop him, and when he spoke again, he was already sitting in the carriage.
"Small injury." Mu Rugui brushed the broken snow off his shoulders for him, and said in a low voice, "It's nothing serious."
Xia Chaosheng hesitated to speak.
According to the memory of the previous life, Uncle Jiu's leg was indeed fine, but if that was the case, how did Uncle Jiu fool the eyes of the imperial physician?
Xia Chaosheng had too many questions to ask, and realized that even if he was reborn, he still didn't really understand Mu Rugui.
In Uncle Jiu's life, he only experienced the end.
Xia Chaosheng lowered his eyes in disappointment, and sighed while holding the stove.
Mu Rugui's heart tightened suddenly: "Chaosheng?"
He gave a vague "hmm", and picked at the patterns on the stove with his fingertips one after another.
"My legs are really fine." Mu Rugui sat next to Xia Chaosheng and grabbed his wrist, "It's just..."
"Is this the Ninth Prince's carriage?" There was a sudden noise from outside the carriage.
To get out of the city, the carriage had to go through the bustling morning market in Shangjing.
"Which of you can see clearly which mansion's sign is hanging on the carriage?"
"It is indeed the palace. My nephew is currently in the palace. He told me that the pattern represents the black armored cavalry!"
"Hey, what black armored cavalry... are just traitors collaborating with the enemy and treason!"
"What nonsense are you talking about?!"
"You don't know, do you? The Ninth Prince secretly communicated with Di Ren, saying that in seven days, Jiaxing Pass will be opened and Di Ren will be put into the girder!"
"how is this possible?!"
"You don't believe me?... Well, I'll tell you kindly. This time the Ninth Prince returned to the capital and brought back a pregnant Di girl! If it wasn't for His Majesty's gift of marriage, the position of the princess would be held by the young prince Make way for her!"
"There are such absurd things? Our prince of Daliang actually wants to marry a Di girl?!"
"Naturally. The Ninth Prince has always been cruel and rebellious. Is there anything he can't do?"
"This statement is reasonable. I also heard that the young master of Zhen Guohou's mansion was grounded by the Ninth Prince and locked in the house just after he married into the mansion..."
"Brother, I see that you look like you don't believe what I said? Well, you explain to me, if the Ninth Prince has not been involved with Di Ren, why did you work so hard to get a Di girl from Youyun?" Sixteen continents brought back?"
"This...you are right, brother, the Ninth Prince and that Di girl must have an affair!"
"He must be a traitor, he is the scum of our Daliang!"
…………
The same dialogue was repeated across Beijing.
There are always unconvinced people in the crowd, who seem to believe that the Ninth Prince will not collude with the enemy and treason, but in the end they are all silenced by the rebuttals of others, retire after success, and quietly sneak back to the East Palace.
Sitting in the carriage, Xia Chaosheng listened intently for a while, and he already guessed that the rumors must be spread by the prince, and after today, the truth must be revealed, but he was still furious.
Xia Chaosheng covered his mouth, coughed in Mu Rugui's arms, caught a glimpse of blood stains on his palm, immediately gathered his five fingers together, hid his fist behind his back, and said angrily: "It is said that the wind is rain, how can they have no judgment at all?" No?"
Why was he imprisoned in the mansion, and he had to die in order to survive; what brought Di Nu back from Youyun Sixteen Continents all the way... It seemed like they saw it with their own eyes!
The Liang people and the Di people have been at war for several years, and the war outside Jiaxing Pass has never stopped.
Join the army at fifteen, and return at eighty.
Who doesn't have relatives and friends who joined the army?
If the Ninth Prince really hooked up with Di Ren, then he was a sinner of Daliang. He was sorry for Liang Ren who was buried outside Jiaxing Pass and failed to return to his hometown even after his death.
One can imagine how much the people of Shangjing hate Mu Rugui now.
Xia Chaosheng was anxious and angry, he had clearly planned to participate in the plan, but when the situation came to an end, he couldn't take it lightly.
He fell on the wooden window, plunged into Mu Rugui's arms, and tremblingly stroked the scar on Uncle Jiu's right hand. It was evidence, a meritorious service, and a debt in his heart.
Mu Rugui is good, only he knows.
"Uncle Nine..."
"En." Mu Rugui hugged Xia Chaosheng contentedly.
If Red Five or Black Seven were by his side, he would be extremely surprised, because Mu Rugui was lazily leaning against the side of the carriage, a rare state of complete relaxation.
"Uncle Nine, everyone misunderstood you." Xia Chaosheng felt wronged on Mu Rugui's behalf.
"That's a misunderstanding." Mu Rugui didn't take it seriously, lowered his head and smelled the faint medicinal fragrance on his body, and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm used to it."
Who has never had a passion for it?
But when he fought bloody for three days and three nights to drive Di Ren out of Youyun Sixteen Continents, he found that he had become a more terrifying existence in Liang Ren's heart than Di Ren.
They said he was a god of killing, and that his hands were full of dead souls.
They live in peace and stability in Shangjing, but they accuse him, who is guarding the soil, of being cruel.
Ridiculous?
Mu Rugui no longer felt the absurdity, he hugged Xia Chaosheng's slender waist tightly, and sighed contentedly.
"I know who you are." Xia Chaosheng murmured sullenly, "Uncle Jiu, the world misunderstands you, and I believe you too."
Mu Rugui's eyes moved slightly.
It is enough for him to have this promise.
Under the eyes of the common people, the carriage of the palace slowly drove away from Shangjing, while in the imperial city, Chang Zhong, holding a dust whisk in his hand, was singing at the top of his voice, "Open the dynasty!"
The courtiers filed in, the crown prince and the fifth prince stood aside, and when King Liang appeared, they immediately shouted long live.
King Liang's expression was gloomy and his breath was unstable. He had obviously seen the memorial that Mu Rushou sent the young eunuch to the palace before going to court.
King Liang knew better than anyone else that if Mu Ruqi really wanted to collude with Di Ren, the end of Daliang would come.
The Xuanjia iron cavalry stationed in Youyun Sixteen Continents is Daliang's last and strongest line of defense against the Di people.
For so many years, even though King Liang was afraid of Mu Rugui, he did not dare to take his life seriously.
A double-edged sword, as long as the tip of the knife is not aimed at yourself, it is a usable sword.
But now, the prince said that Mu Rugui had already had a different heart, and the King of Liang was furious, and found that there was no one in the beam who could compete with the black armored cavalry.
If Mu Ru returns, will he use the Jinwu Guard who has never been on the battlefield and is pampered in Shangjing to fight against Xuanjia cavalry, or will he urgently recall the Xia family army who is still stationed in the nineteenth county of Jingye?
He had just stuffed Xia Chaosheng's precious son into the palace, but if Xia Rongshan felt a little dissatisfied in his heart, Xia's army would not necessarily come to Beijing!
Mu Rugui, Mu Rugui...
King Liang thought back to the early years, when the first emperor was dying, he didn't even care about the state and the country, supported his sick body, and insisted on naming Mu Rugui, who was still in his infancy, the "Ru" generation.
At that time, Mu Rugui was the biggest stumbling block on his way to the throne. If Mu Rugui hadn't been young and had a disabled leg, it would be impossible to say who would be sitting on the throne now...
"Your Majesty, I have a book to play!"
After the Shan Hu long live, four or five senior officials with high positions tremblingly rushed out from behind the prince.
The courtiers of the Fifth Prince's faction hesitated for a moment and lost the opportunity.
Liang Wang forced himself to hold back his anger: "What's the matter?"
"I have something to ask Your Majesty!" The person who spoke was no longer an old minister, but the commander of the Jinwu Guard, Yan Yuhua, "Do I want to have a truce with the Di people?"
Liang Wang was furious: "Yan Yuhua, I think you, as the commander of the Jinwu Guard, have guarded the palace for many years, and you will not be punished for speaking out loud, but you must tell me clearly who is in Shangjing and Daliang, spreading the word Such absurd words?"
Yan Yuhua knelt down on the ground: "It's not the minister's outrageous words, but the royal family's private contacts with the Di people..."
"Commander Yan, why did you say that?" There was a neutral faction among the courtiers, who turned pale with shock, "Our Great Liang has fought against Youyun Sixteen Continents for many years, and it is not that there are no Di people in Shangjing, and there are also many Di people in the palaces of the ministers in the court. A servant of human blood, is it an exaggeration to say 'secret contacts'?!"
Yan Yuhua glanced at the courtiers, and saw that most of them were disturbed, secretly amused.
"My lords, don't worry. The Di people have fought with the Liang people for many years. There are still many people in Shangjing who have the blood of the Di people without knowing it. If this is the case, it can be regarded as 'existing contacts'. Isn't it ridiculous?"
"What exactly is Master Yan trying to say?!"
"The person I want to impeach is truly a heinous crime. I dare not speak falsely. I just ask Your Majesty and your lords, what should be the crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason?"
"The crime should be executed!"
"What if the person who made a mistake shed the same blood as His Majesty today?"
"Even if it's me, the crime is the same as that of the common people." Mu Ruqi slowly took over the conversation, and before the fifth prince could express his opinion, he also knelt down in front of King Liang, "I also ask my father to investigate clearly!"
The fifth prince and his henchmen, who were fully prepared, were originally pale with anger because they were robbed of all the limelight by the prince, but now they looked at each other in blank dismay.
This person kneeling in front of the Golden Luan Hall, begging His Majesty to punish him, is he really the current crown prince?
The fifth prince even began to doubt whether what Di Nu in the mansion said was true.
But her words were convincing, and she also told the names of the relatives around the prince, as well as the secret affairs in the East Palace, which really did not seem to be a lie.
Could it be that the prince knew he had made a mistake, so in order to prevent others from impeaching him, he first admitted his mistake?
Then you can't... say the same crime as the common people!
The fifth prince fell into deep doubts, and stood aside with his party members, silently watching the prince and his party making an impassioned speech in the court hall. The prepared memorial burned his hands all of a sudden, not knowing whether it should be handed over to Liang before the king.
Seeing that the fifth prince was silent, Mu Ruqi thought he was speechless, and immediately asked triumphantly, "Fifth brother, what do you think is the crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason?"
"I think..." the fifth prince paused, "What the emperor said is absolutely true, the crime should be executed."
When Mu Ruqi heard the words, he curled his lips in disdain.
He felt that the fifth prince was ashamed and indignant, and he didn't want to help Jiuhuangshu hide it anymore, so he immediately said sharply: "If that's the case, why don't the fifth brother hand over Di Nu who is hiding in the mansion?"
There was an uproar in the room.
There was a brief blank on the face of the fifth prince: "Brother, do you really want me to bring Di Nu to the emperor?"
"Naturally! You helped conceal it. You have already made a mistake once. Are you going to make the same mistake again and again and let the emperor down?" Mu Ruqi said righteously, "Why don't you bring him here soon?"
Liang Wang also said: "Xu'er, if you haven't brought people to the Jinluan Palace, do you want me to order you to search the palace?"
The fifth prince was shocked, and hurriedly said: "The minister will let people bring Di Nu, father, calm down!"
Half an hour later, Yue Ji, who was wearing a veil and pregnant, was brought to the Golden Luan Hall.
Mu Ruqi vaguely felt that the figure was a little familiar, but he didn't think much about it. Instead, the moment Yue Ji arrived, he knelt down in front of King Liang again: "Father, this woman is the evidence that Uncle Nine Emperors secretly hooked up with Di Ren. What she is carrying in her womb is the son of the Nine Emperor Uncles!"
The words were shocking, but the fifth prince hadn't reacted yet, and had been standing in the corner. Xia Rongshan, who was silently sulking because he couldn't wait for Xia Chaosheng to return home, jumped up first.
"How can this be reasonable?! My son has just married into the palace for three days, and she already has the prince's child in her womb?!"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! I beg Your Majesty to allow my son to leave!"
The author has something to say: Xia Chaosheng:?No, I don't want to.
*Only Chaosheng and the prince are reborn, and there will be no other reborn characters in the future. The scene Xia Yu saw can be regarded as... a flashback_(:з」∠)_
Fifteen to join the army, eighty to return.

"Hey, what black armored cavalry... are just traitors collaborating with the enemy and treason!"
"What nonsense are you talking about?!"
"You don't know, do you? The Ninth Prince secretly communicated with Di Ren, saying that in seven days, Jiaxing Pass will be opened and Di Ren will be put into the girder!"
"how is this possible?!"
"You don't believe me?... Well, I'll tell you kindly. This time the Ninth Prince returned to the capital and brought back a pregnant Di girl! If it wasn't for His Majesty's gift of marriage, the position of the princess would be held by the young prince Make way for her!"
"There are such absurd things? Our prince of Daliang actually wants to marry a Di girl?!"
"Naturally. The Ninth Prince has always been cruel and rebellious. Is there anything he can't do?"
"This statement is reasonable. I also heard that the young master of Zhen Guohou's mansion was grounded by the Ninth Prince and locked in the house just after he married into the mansion..."
"Brother, I see that you look like you don't believe what I said? Well, you explain to me, if the Ninth Prince has not been involved with Di Ren, why did you work so hard to get a Di girl from Youyun?" Sixteen continents brought back?"
"This...you are right, brother, the Ninth Prince and that Di girl must have an affair!"
"He must be a traitor, he is the scum of our Daliang!"
…………
The same dialogue was repeated across Beijing.
There are always unconvinced people in the crowd, who seem to believe that the Ninth Prince will not collude with the enemy and treason, but in the end they are all silenced by the rebuttals of others, retire after success, and quietly sneak back to the East Palace.
Sitting in the carriage, Xia Chaosheng listened intently for a while, and he already guessed that the rumors must be spread by the prince, and after today, the truth must be revealed, but he was still furious.
Xia Chaosheng covered his mouth, coughed in Mu Rugui's arms, caught a glimpse of blood stains on his palm, immediately gathered his five fingers together, hid his fist behind his back, and said angrily: "It is said that the wind is rain, how can they have no judgment at all?" No?"
Why was he imprisoned in the mansion, and he had to die in order to survive; what brought Di Nu back from Youyun Sixteen Continents all the way... It seemed like they saw it with their own eyes!
The Liang people and the Di people have been at war for several years, and the war outside Jiaxing Pass has never stopped.
Join the army at fifteen, and return at eighty.
Who doesn't have relatives and friends who joined the army?
If the Ninth Prince really hooked up with Di Ren, then he was a sinner of Daliang. He was sorry for Liang Ren who was buried outside Jiaxing Pass and failed to return to his hometown even after his death.
One can imagine how much the people of Shangjing hate Mu Rugui now.
Xia Chaosheng was anxious and angry, he had clearly planned to participate in the plan, but when the situation came to an end, he couldn't take it lightly.
He fell on the wooden window, plunged into Mu Rugui's arms, and tremblingly stroked the scar on Uncle Jiu's right hand. It was evidence, a meritorious service, and a debt in his heart.
Mu Rugui is good, only he knows.
"Uncle Nine..."
"En." Mu Rugui hugged Xia Chaosheng contentedly.
If Red Five or Black Seven were by his side, he would be extremely surprised, because Mu Rugui was lazily leaning against the side of the carriage, a rare state of complete relaxation.
"Uncle Nine, everyone misunderstood you." Xia Chaosheng felt wronged on Mu Rugui's behalf.
"That's a misunderstanding." Mu Rugui didn't take it seriously, lowered his head and smelled the faint medicinal fragrance on his body, and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm used to it."
Who has never had a passion for it?
But when he fought bloody for three days and three nights to drive Di Ren out of Youyun Sixteen Continents, he found that he had become a more terrifying existence in Liang Ren's heart than Di Ren.
They said he was a god of killing, and that his hands were full of dead souls.
They live in peace and stability in Shangjing, but they accuse him, who is guarding the soil, of being cruel.
Ridiculous?
Mu Rugui no longer felt the absurdity, he hugged Xia Chaosheng's slender waist tightly, and sighed contentedly.
"I know who you are." Xia Chaosheng murmured sullenly, "Uncle Jiu, the world misunderstands you, and I believe you too."
Mu Rugui's eyes moved slightly.
It is enough for him to have this promise.
Under the eyes of the common people, the carriage of the palace slowly drove away from Shangjing, while in the imperial city, Chang Zhong, holding a dust whisk in his hand, was singing at the top of his voice, "Open the dynasty!"
The courtiers filed in, the crown prince and the fifth prince stood aside, and when King Liang appeared, they immediately shouted long live.
King Liang's expression was gloomy and his breath was unstable. He had obviously seen the memorial that Mu Rushou sent the young eunuch to the palace before going to court.
King Liang knew better than anyone else that if Mu Ruqi really wanted to collude with Di Ren, the end of Daliang would come.
The Xuanjia iron cavalry stationed in Youyun Sixteen Continents is Daliang's last and strongest line of defense against the Di people.
For so many years, even though King Liang was afraid of Mu Rugui, he did not dare to take his life seriously.
A double-edged sword, as long as the tip of the knife is not aimed at yourself, it is a usable sword.
But now, the prince said that Mu Rugui had already had a different heart, and the King of Liang was furious, and found that there was no one in the beam who could compete with the black armored cavalry.
If Mu Ru returns, will he use the Jinwu Guard who has never been on the battlefield and is pampered in Shangjing to fight against Xuanjia cavalry, or will he urgently recall the Xia family army who is still stationed in the nineteenth county of Jingye?
He had just stuffed Xia Chaosheng's precious son into the palace, but if Xia Rongshan felt a little dissatisfied in his heart, Xia's army would not necessarily come to Beijing!
Mu Rugui, Mu Rugui...
King Liang thought back to the early years, when the first emperor was dying, he didn't even care about the state and the country, supported his sick body, and insisted on naming Mu Rugui, who was still in his infancy, the "Ru" generation.
At that time, Mu Rugui was the biggest stumbling block on his way to the throne. If Mu Rugui hadn't been young and had a disabled leg, it would be impossible to say who would be sitting on the throne now...
"Your Majesty, I have a book to play!"
After the Shan Hu long live, four or five senior officials with high positions tremblingly rushed out from behind the prince.
The courtiers of the Fifth Prince's faction hesitated for a moment and lost the opportunity.
Liang Wang forced himself to hold back his anger: "What's the matter?"
"I have something to ask Your Majesty!" The person who spoke was no longer an old minister, but the commander of the Jinwu Guard, Yan Yuhua, "Do I want to have a truce with the Di people?"
Liang Wang was furious: "Yan Yuhua, I think you, as the commander of the Jinwu Guard, have guarded the palace for many years, and you will not be punished for speaking out loud, but you must tell me clearly who is in Shangjing and Daliang, spreading the word Such absurd words?"
Yan Yuhua knelt down on the ground: "It's not the minister's outrageous words, but the royal family's private contacts with the Di people..."
"Commander Yan, why did you say that?" There was a neutral faction among the courtiers, who turned pale with shock, "Our Great Liang has fought against Youyun Sixteen Continents for many years, and it is not that there are no Di people in Shangjing, and there are also many Di people in the palaces of the ministers in the court. A servant of human blood, is it an exaggeration to say 'secret contacts'?!"
Yan Yuhua glanced at the courtiers, and saw that most of them were disturbed, secretly amused.
"My lords, don't worry. The Di people have fought with the Liang people for many years. There are still many people in Shangjing who have the blood of the Di people without knowing it. If this is the case, it can be regarded as 'existing contacts'. Isn't it ridiculous?"
"What exactly is Master Yan trying to say?!"
"The person I want to impeach is truly a heinous crime. I dare not speak falsely. I just ask Your Majesty and your lords, what should be the crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason?"
"The crime should be executed!"
"What if the person who made a mistake shed the same blood as His Majesty today?"
"Even if it's me, the crime is the same as that of the common people." Mu Ruqi slowly took over the conversation, and before the fifth prince could express his opinion, he also knelt down in front of King Liang, "I also ask my father to investigate clearly!"
The fifth prince and his henchmen, who were fully prepared, were originally pale with anger because they were robbed of all the limelight by the prince, but now they looked at each other in blank dismay.
This person kneeling in front of the Golden Luan Hall, begging His Majesty to punish him, is he really the current crown prince?
The fifth prince even began to doubt whether what Di Nu in the mansion said was true.
But her words were convincing, and she also told the names of the relatives around the prince, as well as the secret affairs in the East Palace, which really did not seem to be a lie.
Could it be that the prince knew he had made a mistake, so in order to prevent others from impeaching him, he first admitted his mistake?
Then you can't... say the same crime as the common people!
The fifth prince fell into deep doubts, and stood aside with his party members, silently watching the prince and his party making an impassioned speech in the court hall. The prepared memorial burned his hands all of a sudden, not knowing whether it should be handed over to Liang before the king.
Seeing that the fifth prince was silent, Mu Ruqi thought he was speechless, and immediately asked triumphantly, "Fifth brother, what do you think is the crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason?"
"I think..." the fifth prince paused, "What the emperor said is absolutely true, the crime should be executed."
When Mu Ruqi heard the words, he curled his lips in disdain.
He felt that the fifth prince was ashamed and indignant, and he didn't want to help Jiuhuangshu hide it anymore, so he immediately said sharply: "If that's the case, why don't the fifth brother hand over Di Nu who is hiding in the mansion?"
There was an uproar in the room.
There was a brief blank on the face of the fifth prince: "Brother, do you really want me to bring Di Nu to the emperor?"
"Naturally! You helped conceal it. You have already made a mistake once. Are you going to make the same mistake again and again and let the emperor down?" Mu Ruqi said righteously, "Why don't you bring him here soon?"
Liang Wang also said: "Xu'er, if you haven't brought people to the Jinluan Palace, do you want me to order you to search the palace?"
The fifth prince was shocked, and hurriedly said: "The minister will let people bring Di Nu, father, calm down!"
Half an hour later, Yue Ji, who was wearing a veil and pregnant, was brought to the Golden Luan Hall.
Mu Ruqi vaguely felt that the figure was a little familiar, but he didn't think much about it. Instead, the moment Yue Ji arrived, he knelt down in front of King Liang again: "Father, this woman is the evidence that Uncle Nine Emperors secretly hooked up with Di Ren. What she is carrying in her womb is the son of the Nine Emperor Uncles!"
The words were shocking, but the fifth prince hadn't reacted yet, and had been standing in the corner. Xia Rongshan, who was silently sulking because he couldn't wait for Xia Chaosheng to return home, jumped up first.
"How can this be reasonable?! My son has just married into the palace for three days, and she already has the prince's child in her womb?!"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! I beg Your Majesty to allow my son to leave!"
The author has something to say: Xia Chaosheng:?No, I don't want to.
*Only Chaosheng and the prince are reborn, and there will be no other reborn characters in the future. The scene Xia Yu saw can be regarded as... a flashback_(:з」∠)_
Fifteen to join the army, eighty to return.
