Bend that ghost

The emperor of a small country is not qualified to be a tyrant, but... he can become a fool, especially Jing Lian's father, Yuan Shang's ruler.

Maybe it's self-willed depravity, the older you get, the more absurd you become, if you can't go to court in the morning, you can't go, and you can indulge in sensuality and singing every night in the harem all day long.

It also created chaos and smog in the court. Jing Lian entered the court at the age of 14, joined forces with several senior ministers who could be regarded as brachial thighs, took advantage of the momentum of the Wen family, and took care of several favorite ministers who were jumping up and down with thunder.

In the harem and the former dynasty, one move can affect the whole body. The prince's move was ruthless enough. Countless people were confiscated, exiled and beheaded.

Because of this, the prince was offended by many empresses in the harem, especially the second prince's biological mother—Concubine Yu.

The second prince, Jing Mu, was only three months younger than Jing Lian. Unfortunately, His Royal Highness was sent to another country since he was a child, and only after returning home did he learn that his mother had been dead for three years.And this second prince can be said to be living smoothly. The first prince who was on top of his head is gone, the empress is dead, and Concubine Yu's abacus is also crackling.

Among the cooking ministers, the one who had the happiest end and the worst end was Concubine Yu's elder brother, Uncle Guo!

However, Jing Lian, who was hated, is actually... not the mastermind. No matter how powerful he is, no matter how rich the resources left by the empress, Jing Lian is still just a young man, still a crown prince who has been suppressed by many people and has no real power.

As for tidying up the court hall, it was naturally from the hand of Wen Yuan who went to court with the crown prince....

His highness is too clean, with slender and beautiful hands, the person he has been carefully protecting... If he can protect it for a while, he will protect it for a while.

For this reason, Wen Yuan turned the court upside down, including the emperor's sons.

The third prince is low-key, and his biological mother is weak, so there is no evidence for it.

The fourth prince has no intention of going to court, but only likes to dance with a fan and paint. He looks like a playboy.

The remaining fifth and sixth princes are six and five and a half years old, so they are not considered.

Therefore, Wen Yuan took the first step for His Highness to sit in that position.

The crown prince has been in the court for three years, and he used the name of the Wen family to win over the courtiers, but within three years, the court has already had two factions fighting against each other.

On one side are the princelings, and on the other side... is the Second Highness Mu Wang's party.

The dark secret room is surrounded by stone walls. This is the underground secret room of the Wen family.

It's normal for an aristocratic family to have a dungeon or a secret room, which are usually used to hide things or lock up prisoners, but this secret room was asked by Wen Yuan on his own initiative, and no one can enter.

Wen Yuan is the next Patriarch of the Wen family, and he is admired as a god. Even the emperor of Yuan Shang has to give him three points of respect. No matter how afraid he is, he dare not attack the Wen family. No one dared to challenge Wen Yuan, let alone...he just wanted a secret room?

Just want to build a living temple, the emperor has to contribute money to build it!It must be fixed!

There is only a white jade bed in the secret room. The jade is dug out from the bottom of the cold pool, and it is called Hanyu, which is very straightforward.

As for why such a bed is placed in the secret room, Wen Yuan is a normal man, and a normal man who can hang around in front of his beloved every day, normal men will have impulses! !

Therefore, this bed became the best way to calm Wen Yuan down.

There is a pillared stone platform beside the bed, but there is an exquisite jade box placed on the stone platform. The round and white jade is divided into two layers. The outer layer is hollowed out and carved very finely, while the inside is only carved. The jade box without hollows makes it difficult to see the contents inside.

In the underground secret room without any light, Wen Yuan sat quietly cross-legged on the cold jade bed, and suddenly raised his hand to touch his lower lip. Recalling the wanton kiss in the study today, the corners of his lips unconsciously raised a touch of tenderness. laugh.

He often laughs, sneers, fakes, sneers, sneers, and laughs in an unrestrained way, but at this moment, his sincere smile in the dark is not only beautiful to the soul, but also like the peace of a river flowing into the sea.

His repressed, crazy, and even ulterior love has actually received a response!

Wen Yuan accurately touched the jade box in the dark, tapped the mechanism lightly, and slowly opened the box, acting solemnly as if he was doing something important.

In the dark environment, the sound of opening the box was exceptionally clear, and inside the box lay a doll quietly.

The puppet is dressed in a black robe, from the neckline to the bottom, embroidered with gorgeous gold thread to create a cloud pattern, and the skirt is embroidered with a majestic five-clawed golden dragon, which is the emperor's dragon robe.The puppet is exquisitely made, even the eyelashes are straight and clear, the brows are cold, calm and restrained, it is the current crown prince - Jing Lian.

The doll was made extremely realistic and delicate. Wen Yuan gently took out the doll, and behind the doll was stuck a yellow talisman paper folded into a triangle. Wen Yuan knew that the man's hair was still wrapped in the talisman paper.

After a long time, Wen Yuan smiled softly, put the doll back, took out a silver needle in the box, pricked it on the index finger, and dripped a drop of blood on the doll's forehead.

The moment the blood touched the doll, it disappeared strangely as if being sucked!

Then, Wen Yuan pierced his fingers one by one, and repeated the previous action until all ten fingers were pierced. The whole process was quiet and smooth, as if it was not himself who had been pierced. Then it became completely white.

This is what he must do every night. His Highness is excellent, but it is a pity that the enemy's three years took away his healthy body, not to mention...

A trace of pity and bitterness flashed in Wen Yuan's eyes, and he exhaled, as if exhaling the anguish in his heart together.

——His Highness, as elegant as dust, as light as still water, has never been suitable for that position.

Wen Yuan held the jade box in his arms, lowered his eyes and stared at the puppet inside the box in the dark, with a gentle expression, as if he was watching himself intently.

After a long time, Wen Yuan sighed softly, put the puppet back, got up and pressed the switch, and walked out of the secret room slowly.

The quiet and elegant study room is lit with candles, just like daytime.

The man sitting behind the desk was dressed in a navy blue brocade robe, with a jade crown and hair tied up. His appearance was three points similar to Wen Yuan's, but compared to Wen Yuan's charming aura, his brows were unearthly.

With a creak, Wen Yuan pushed the door open, closed the door, stepped forward, lifted his robe, bent his knees, and knelt down towards the man.

This kneeling took a lot of effort, and he actually knelt down. With his head hanging down, Wen Yuan looked like a child who had done something wrong. It was obviously a gesture of admitting his mistakes, but his straight back showed his stubbornness. He called out in a hoarse voice. He said, "Father."

The one Wen Yuan called his father was naturally Wen Moli, the Patriarch of the Wen family.

Wen Moli looked down at his son kneeling below, with a complicated expression, and sighed softly: "Yuan'er, Your Majesty... his time is numbered..."

Wen Yuan's hands in his sleeves were clenched suddenly.

Back then, his father used the technique of deduction to calculate the fate of Yuan Shang and the country-the death of the emperor and the end of the country's fortune.
