Reborn as a King in the Hand

Didn't the father go to Lishan?

Why did Uncle Nine Emperors rush back from Jiaxing Pass?

One question after another, Mu Ruqi's forehead broke out in cold sweat, standing in the silent Golden Luan Hall, suddenly remembered the quarrel with Mu Ruxu a few days ago.

He seemed to have said something, hoping that Uncle Nine Emperors would die from his injuries.

Mu Ruqi's eyelids twitched slightly.

At that time, why did Mu Ruxu mention Uncle Nine Emperors?

His head was aching, and he couldn't remember what happened at that time.

"Brother Huang can't remember?" The fifth prince who was standing at the side gloated and said, "Then ask Mr. Qin... maybe, if you talk to him a few words, Brother Huang will be able to do what you have done." I remembered everything."

In the blink of an eye, Mu Ruqi's eyes lit up: "Father, Uncle Nine Emperors was injured, and it has nothing to do with my son!"

Liang Wang almost died of anger.

Mu Ruxu glanced at the indifferent Mu Rugui, knelt down at the Highness, and said in a loud voice, "Father, what the emperor said is really weird!"

Not only the fifth prince found it strange, but also the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

King Liang summoned the prince, and what he wanted to inquire about was Qin Tongda's collusion with the enemy and treason, but when the prince came to the Golden Luan Hall, every sentence of his defense was inseparable from the Ninth Prince Mu Rugui.

Is it because of a guilty conscience, or because Mu Rugui's injuries are related to him?

King Liang's complexion darkened, his eyes were secretive, and he obviously thought of this.

Mu Ruqi didn't have so many twists and turns in his heart.

Anxiety was like ants, densely crawling all over his heart.

Dou Da's cold sweat fell down the corner of his forehead, and Mu Ruqi remembered his previous life——

In his previous life, he was not left in Shangjing, but went to Jiaxing Pass with Mu Rugui.

He couldn't bear the bitter cold at the border. He couldn't bear the bloody battlefield. He wanted to flee back to the capital in embarrassment, but the counselor beside him said: "After this time, Your Highness will have a smoother future."

"The Xuanjia iron cavalry of the Ninth Prince has an extremely bad reputation, His Highness only needs to make use of it a little..."

Mu understood as expected.

He is not a fool. He has been ups and downs in the dye vat of fighting for power and profit since he was a child, and he immediately understood what to do.

In the report he wrote back to Beijing, he repeatedly mentioned Mu Rugui's bravery, which indirectly made his father jealous, so that all the military achievements fell on him.

At that time, Mu Ruqi was also standing in the same position, facing the King of Liang and all the ministers, and all the words in his ears were praises.

But with the same person and the same scene, Mu Ruqi found that the atmosphere around him had changed.

The officials looked at him with strange eyes, even the emperor sitting on the dragon chair looked at him with cold eyes.

wrong.

It shouldn't be like this.

Mu Ruqi clenched his hands hanging in the armholes, thinking in panic: Even if great changes have taken place between this life and the previous life, his enthronement will not change.

Yes, he is the future king of Daliang, even if he is wronged and suffers now, there is nothing to worry about.

The one who can inherit the throne... is only him.

Thinking of this, Mu Ruqi simply knelt down and confessed his mistake frankly: "Father, my son was confused for a moment and did something wrong. Please forgive me!"

The whole hall was in an uproar.

Even the astonishment in King Liang's heart overwhelmed his anger.

With Chang Zhong's support, King Liang walked quickly to Mu Ruqi, bowed his waist, and tremblingly said: "Say it again, you were confused for a while, what did you do?"

"My son..."

"Father, the brother of the emperor has already admitted it, what else is there to ask?" Even though he knew that speaking at this time would cause Liang Wang's displeasure, the fifth prince still stood up, "Father, now that the people in the capital are full of grievances, please ask Father Make a decision early!"

The courtiers behind the fifth prince also came back to their senses, and said one after another: "Please make a decision early, Your Majesty!"

"Decision...you...what decision do you want me to make?" Liang Wang was frightened and angry, and asked, "Are you asking me to depose the crown prince?!"

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

Mu Ruqi, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly raised his head, his eyes were dazzled by the dancing candles in the Golden Temple: "Father..."

"You still have the face to call my father emperor?" Liang Wang staggered and threw himself in front of him, wanting to kick Mu Ruqi's shoulder, but he took a step ahead and fell to the ground.

"Father!"

"His Majesty!"

The dizzy King Liang was helped up by Chang Zhong.

His face was pale, and his raised arms were shaking like chaff: "You...you get lost!"

"Father..." The fifth prince's heart sank. He knew that King Liang was angry, but he still didn't want to depose the prince, and he couldn't help but feel resentment. Civilian outrage."

Liang Wang slumped against Chang Zhong, eyes drooping, as if he didn't hear Mu Ruxu's words.

King Liang naturally had his own considerations.

The prince is not good at all, all are princes, and the most noble blood flows on his body.

The country of Daliang cannot be inherited by a prince with Di blood.

At least, at this moment, King Liang thought so.

"Chang Zhong, help me go back."

"Father!"

"His Majesty!"

The fifth prince and his ministers hurriedly stopped him: "This matter must not be..."

Suddenly, the little eunuch's high-pitched voice cut in abruptly: "The empress is here!"

Mu Ruqi, who was kneeling on the ground, was stunned, and all the courtiers were also stunned.

King Liang stopped in his tracks and turned around with a gloomy face: "Is the queen here to intercede for the crown prince?"

Empress Qin, who took off her hairpin, walked slowly into the Golden Luan Hall, with a pale face, and bowed down with a wry smile: "The concubine is not here to plead for the prince... The concubine is pleading guilty for her mother's family, and I implore your majesty to take back the concubine's queen's treasure! This concubine wishes to be with the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha in this life, and only asks His Majesty to remember a little of the old love and leave some blood of the Qin family!"

When the fifth prince heard the words, a stern look flashed in his eyes.

King Liang was unwilling to punish the prince heavily, and Empress Qin was willing to accept the punishment. It seemed that this time, Mu Ruqi could barely keep the crown prince.

However, Mu Ruxu quickly calmed down.

Without the support of the Qin clan, Mu Ruqi is no longer the dreaded prince.

Even if he can keep his position in the Eastern Palace today, he won't be able to keep it in the future.

Just let Mu Ruhu be happy for a few days.

There is ample time.

Empress Qin invited her out of the palace, and the civil and military officials couldn't say anything. Liang Wang was silent for a moment, and said calmly: "Since the empress is willing to do so, then so be it."

"It's just that the Qin clan has sinned deeply. I have to give the world an explanation."

Empress Qin's figure shook slightly, and she murmured with tears in her eyes, "Your Majesty..."

"Queen, don't say any more." Liang Wang turned his back.

He has secretly left Qin Xuanlang behind, and the rest of the Qin clan should make amends for what Qin Tongda did.

The sky is about to brighten, and the drowsy night is dispelled by the crimson morning sun.

"I can't let him die quickly." Liang Wang looked at Qin Tongda, and decreed in a cold voice, "I will reward you with a lingering punishment. As for your clansmen... those who are close to you will be executed, and the rest of the clan will be sold into slavery. Immortality and eternity shall not step into Shangjing half a step!"

Since then, the prestigious Qin clan has finally come to an end.

"Qin Tongda was executed by Ling Chi?" Xia Zhaosheng heard the news, it was already noon the next day.

He rested in the Hou Mansion overnight, and when he woke up, he saw Mu Rugui standing by the stove with a chill all over his body.

"Uncle Nine." Xia Chaosheng rubbed his eyes and got up from the couch.

His eyes are sleepy, his hair is scattered, he is wrapped in a brocade quilt, his complexion is still weakly white, but his lips are very red, covered with thin water, like peaches in full bloom in April.

Mu Rugui looked away with difficulty, and cleared his throat: "The prince has Queen Qin as his guarantee, so he will be safe for the time being."

"Not necessarily." Xia Chaosheng said a few words, feeling sleepy, fell back, hugged the quilt and murmured, "Uncle Nine, think about it, although the crown prince kept his position in the East Palace, his most favorable backer There is no more...Qin Tongda is dead, and Empress Qin invited him out of the palace, so what is left of him in the court?"

"Oh, by the way, His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince will never let go of such a good opportunity." His eyelids twitched, and at the end, he was almost raving, "Uncle Nine, wait a minute, it will take less than three days to go to the capital to settle down." The people in the society are full of resentment, and if the fifth prince takes the opportunity to speak again, even if His Majesty really wants to protect the crown prince's position in the East Palace, it will be hindered by public opinion and he will be left out in the cold."

At the end of Xia Chaosheng's speech, he really fell asleep.

Mu Rugui finally dispelled the chill from his hands, walked lightly to the bed, and lifted the blue bed gauze.

Xia Chaosheng only occupied a corner of the couch, curled up obediently, as if waiting for him to come back.

Mu Rugui's heart was soft, and he forgot about the intrigue in the court, and lay down on his side.

Before Mu Rugui reached out, Xia Chaosheng had already consciously arched over, following the heat source, and embedded himself into Uncle Jiu's embrace.

On the other side, Xia Rongshan, who had just come down to court, was holding a bowl of noodles and gobbling it up.

Mrs. Pei sat aside and shook her head with a smile: "Slow down, no one will compete with you."

"Ma'am, you don't know." Xia Rongshan put down the bowl, shook his head and sighed, "How dangerous is the court today."

Mrs. Pei didn't take it seriously: "It's not you who are dangerous, it's His Royal Highness the prince who is dangerous."

She bit the word "His Royal Highness" very hard, and her tone was quite resentful.

"Thinking about it today, the choice I made when my son was born was really right." Xia Rongshan sighed, "Who would have thought that His Royal Highness would be so..."

Even Xia Rongshan, who was called a "rough man", didn't know how to scold Mu Ruqi for a while, so he was silent for a moment, and then he choked out a sentence: "What a fool."

Mrs. Pei glared at him: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Ma'am, you don't know." Xia Rongshan recalled Mu Ruqi's confession at the Golden Luan Hall, and felt disdainful, but also unbelievable. "His Highness has already admitted that the East Palace was also involved in the secret planning of that old man Qin Tongda."

"What?!" Mrs. Pei was startled, "He...he is the crown prince!"

Who would have thought that the current crown prince would collude with the courtiers and hand over the country of Daliang to Di Ren?

Even if you can really think of it, if you tell it, no one will believe it.

"It's absolutely true, ma'am, I heard about your husband in the Jinluan Hall." Seeing Madam Pei's suspicious face, Xia Rongshan raised his hands and said with a wry smile, "If not, why would Empress Qin ask herself out of the palace?  … The clan has come to this day, it is over!"

"If he is not upright, how can he be the crown prince?" Mrs. Pei saw that Xia Rongshan's expression did not seem to be fake, and after a while, she suddenly said, "The son didn't want to marry into the East Palace at the beginning, but it was because he felt that the prince had lost his virtue?"

"Maybe it is." Xia Rongshan could only rejoice in his heart, "Fortunately, the son is now the Ninth Princess... No, the Ninth Prince is also quite difficult!"

After eating and drinking enough, Zhen Guohou began to pour bitter water to Mrs. Pei: "Madam, you know that when I go to court today, my husband is so hungry that I can only hope to come back to eat a bowl of noodles made by my wife, but the Ninth Prince stopped me. Husband, ask questions!"

Mrs. Pei chuckled: "When the son returns to the Hou's Mansion, the prince's heart will also be in the Hou's Mansion."

"Ordinary girls can still go back to their parents' home from time to time when they get married. What's the matter, my son Xia Rongshan can't come back after getting married?"

Mrs. Pei just smiled and said nothing.

"The Ninth Prince first asked me how I was doing recently, and then said that the courtyard in the palace is being repaired... Can I not understand what he meant?" Xia Rongshan became more and more angry as he thought about it, blowing his beard and staring, "I thought the prince I can understand what it means to be a husband... who knew that he followed me back to the Hou's Mansion!"

"I'm angry, I'm really angry!"

"The Ninth Prince doesn't even want His Majesty's reward. If he insists on going out of the palace with me, he won't be able to shake it off!"

Mrs. Pei still smiled.

Mu Rugui cared about her son, could she be unhappy?

Xia Rongshan was so angry that this room was smoking, while Xia Chaosheng was sleeping soundly next to Mu Rugui.

There are many things he has to do in this life, and the downfall of the Eastern Palace is just one of them.

But maybe it was the news brought back by Mu Rugui that slightly eased the hatred in his heart, and made him dream of some less painful past in his long-lost dream.

At that time, he was still studying with the prince, entered the Imperial Academy, and was with Mu Ruqi as an attendant.

Mu Ruqi is not good at riding and shooting, and loves to compete with the fifth prince and others. Whenever he goes to the hunting ground, it is Xia Chaosheng who comes forward to win back face for him.

He rode a snow-white steed, with a bow and arrows amid bursts of applause.

Every arrow hits the bullseye.

Mu Ruxu couldn't beat him, and he was willing to admit defeat, so he brought out Mu Rugui who had been fighting all the year round: "My Nine Emperor Uncle is much better than you!"

The prince laughed loudly: "So what? No matter how powerful you are, it's not you."

The fifth prince stomped his feet in anger and walked away.

Later, Mu Rugui injured his leg, and rumors and rumors about him breaking the leg of his servants spread one after another, and the princes tacitly never mentioned his name again.

However, Xia Chaosheng remembered Mu Rugui.

He practiced riding and archery with Marquis Zhen Guo since he was a child, and he thought highly of himself. He didn't understand the truth that one mountain is higher than another. In addition, he couldn't find an opponent in Taixue, so he scratched his heart and lungs and wanted to compete with this "Nine Emperor Uncle". "Comparison.

It's a pity that since Xia Chaosheng became the prince's companion, Mu Rugui has been stationed at Jiaxing Pass all year round. Even if he returned to Shangjing, he would leave after seeing His Majesty in a hurry.

Xia Chaosheng couldn't wait for the opportunity for a long time, and gradually forgot about the competition. Who would have thought that at the end of the year, Mu Rugui returned to Shangjing and participated in the royal family's ceremony for the first time.

Xia Chaosheng, who was accompanying the prince, was also in the accompanying team.

From a long distance, he couldn't see Mu Rugui's figure very clearly, he only felt that the dark back figure was extremely lonely, surrounded by an indifference that was thousands of miles away from others.

The prince didn't know what Xia Chaosheng was thinking, but possessive desires had already grown in his heart——Xia Chaosheng was extremely delicate and bright, and his smile had an unrivaled elegance. All the noble ladies in the capital were secretly asking him. when to get married.

At the age of fourteen or fifteen, it is already the age for getting engaged.

Mu Ruqi didn't want Xia Chaosheng to get married.

He wanted Xia Chaosheng to be by his side forever.

He couldn't do without those eyes.

So Mu Ruqi took Xia Chaosheng's hand and asked, "What are you doing looking at Uncle Nine Emperors?"

"His Highness the Fifth Prince once said that he is very good at riding and shooting." Xia Chaosheng replied truthfully, "I was wondering how powerful the Ninth Prince is."

Mu Ruqi sneered, his heart relaxed slightly, he leaned on the soft cushion, shook his head and said, "No matter how powerful, what's the use?... I heard from my father and the imperial physicians a few days ago that his leg was already useless, and the medicine stone It’s useless, and you’ll always be a cripple who can’t go far.”

Xia Chaosheng frowned slightly.

He is a martial arts practitioner, and he knows what kind of blow it is to a soldier who is lame on the battlefield... What's more, he is the Ninth Prince who is in command of the black armored cavalry?

Mu Ruqi didn't notice Xia Chaosheng's strangeness, and muttered to himself: "However, Chaosheng, you really have to stay away from Nine Emperor Uncles in the future... Haven't you heard? Since he became lame, he has been serving him for a long time. All the attendants were beaten, no less than ten people had their legs broken, and there could only be more who were beaten to death!"

"Your Majesty...won't you persuade me?"

"What are you persuading?" Mu Ruqi asked back, "Uncle Nine Emperors belongs to the royal family, killing a few court ladies and eunuchs is not a big deal, besides, the father still needs him to fight in the battlefield..."

His words choked in his throat, and when he found Xia Chaosheng looking at him in shock, he quickly changed his words without a trace: "I also heard what Mu Ruxu said."

Xia Chaosheng suppressed the horror in his heart: "Your Highness, don't say such chilling words in the future."

"Okay, I won't talk about it in the future." Mu Ruqi suppressed the disdain in his eyes, and handed Xia Chaosheng a cup of tea, "When the ceremony is over, I will personally persuade Uncle Nine Emperors."

Only then did Xia Chaosheng feel relieved.

Of course Mu Ruqi would not talk to Mu Rugui, what he said to Xia Chaosheng was just an excuse.

Behind Xia Chaosheng stood the entire Zhen Guogong Mansion, which was a powerful bargaining chip he needed to ascend the throne, he just didn't want to give up a good chess piece to others.

But Mu Ruqi didn't expect that on the way back from the ceremony, his carriage surprised the horse.

The steed raised its front hooves high, knocked the coachman to the ground, and then pulled the prince's sedan chair and galloped towards the woods.

Seeing this, Xia Chaosheng immediately gripped the horse's belly, shouted "Drive", and chased after him without hesitation.

The forest was lush with vegetation, and he was not familiar with the terrain, so he did not fall off the horse thanks to his riding skills, but there were inevitably a few bloodstains on his face.

Xia Chaosheng didn't have time to wipe off the blood on his cheeks, fearing that he would be lost, he stared at the approaching carriage without blinking.

"Ah!" Mu Ruqi screamed from the chariot.

Xia Chaosheng breathed a sigh of relief, jumped directly from the horseback to the roof of the carriage, gritted his teeth, lifted the frightened prince out, hugged him in his arms, and rolled on the spot.

The jagged gravel scratched Xia Chaosheng's back, but he ignored the pain and collapsed on the ground, letting out a long sigh of relief.

"Chao... Chaosheng?" Mu Ruqi, who was being protected by Xia Chaosheng, woke up like a dream, and rushed forward in a panic, wanting to poke his nose.

Xia Chaosheng started to play around, held his breath and pretended to lose consciousness, and then felt cold fingertips carefully touching his eyes.

His heart skipped a beat.

Mu Ruqi's precious and careful touch made Xia Zhaosheng's heart beat faster.

"I..." He couldn't pretend anymore, he opened his eyes, and in the next second, his complexion changed drastically, he dragged Mu Ruqi, who couldn't see his expression clearly, and ran away.

A white tiger with hanging eyes was hidden in the bushes not far away, watching them coldly.

Xia Zhaosheng's back was instantly covered with cold sweat.

The tiger was attracted by the smell of blood on his body.

"Chaosheng...you...why are you running?" Mu Ruqi didn't see the tiger behind him, struggling out of breath, "I...I can't run anymore..."

Mu Rugui wanted to sit on the ground and wait for the Jinwu Guard to rescue him.

There seemed to be a fire burning in Xia Chaosheng's chest.

He swallowed the bloody smell rising from his throat, and hoarsely shouted: "Tiger!"

Mu Ruqi's pupils shrank suddenly.

There was a loud roar behind them.

The white tiger didn't bother to tease its prey, and jumped forward with its bloody mouth wide open.

"You go first!" At the very moment, Xia Chaosheng ruthlessly pushed Mu Ruqi away, rolled away in embarrassment, and avoided the fatal blow.

Mu Ruqi fell to the ground, his eyes tearing apart: "Chaosheng!"

"Let's go!" Xia Chaosheng coughed up blood, "It smelled of blood on my body...you go and call someone!"

He forced himself to calm down, drew out the saber at his waist, and turned around to block when the tiger pounced on him again.

The stench of the wind rushed towards his face, and Xia Chaosheng could clearly see the white tiger's teeth dripping with blood.

This is a tiger that has just finished hunting and has not yet filled its stomach.

His heart sank to the bottom bit by bit.

The tiger failed in one blow and pounced again.

Xia Chaosheng repeated his old trick, raised his sword to block again, but was slapped by the white tiger and fell into the grass, unable to get up for a long time.

In a daze, he heard the unique slow footsteps of ferocious beasts.

There were a few vague wailing sounds in the wind, as if Mu Ruqi hadn't gone far.

He thought he was probably going to die.

But before dying...

Xia Chaosheng once again clenched the long sword in his hand, he would rather fight the white tiger to the death before dying.

The wind was howling in the woods, and the branches covering the sky blocked the sunlight.

Xia Chaosheng stared at the white tiger with a bloodless face, gritted his teeth, propped up his upper body, and raised his sword precariously——

The sound of breaking through the sky suddenly rose.

The black arrow sank into the white tiger's right eye, and blood splashed on Xia Zhaosheng's cheek.

He froze.

The sound of horseshoes came from all directions, and it was the Jinwu Guard who came late.

The injured white tiger screamed and disappeared into the shadow of the forest. Xia Chaosheng then remembered to turn around and look for the archer. Amid the howling wind, Mu Ruqi stood timidly in the grass, holding a longbow in his hand.

Xia Zhaosheng's eyes gradually gathered bright starlight.

From then on, he no longer regarded Mu Rugui as a potential opponent.

Because when he was living and dying, he met the prince who could shoot the white tiger's right eye.

"Ah!" Xia Chaosheng woke up in a cold sweat from his dream.

He supported Mu Rugui's chest with both hands, and his breathing was short and weak.

The smelly wind from the forest seems to be still lingering in my ears, and my body is also aching.

"Chaosheng?" Mu Rugui's voice came from far away, and he couldn't hear it clearly.

With Xia Chaosheng's embraced arms, there was a strange feeling in his heart.

He just realized something was wrong.

Mu Ruqi was not good at riding and shooting, so how could he shoot the white tiger in the right eye in such a dark environment?

The author has something to say: Xia Rongshan: Don't suffer from me.jpg
