must have fun

"That's right..." Xuancheng smiled subtly, and echoed his words: "So, Xuancheng hopes day and night that Fifth Brother will come back to preside over the overall situation."

Her words were like a fluttering feather, gently scratching? The desire for power hidden in the deepest part of the five kings' hearts, the five kings were about to move, but they had to cover up and coughed twice.

What he didn't know was that this was exactly the effect Xuancheng wanted. Only by drawing out the other party's hidden ambitions could she set him up.

The fifth king didn't want his younger sister to discover his thoughts, his eyes drifted away, and suddenly he remembered another thing that was on his mind, and hurriedly asked: "By the way, before the father passed out, can you mention me, fifth brother? "

Xuancheng expected that he would definitely bring this up, so he was already prepared, pretending to be ignorant, and knowingly asked, "What are you talking about Fifth Brother?"

"It's just..." Five Kings showed a little embarrassment, ashamed to mention his failure experience.

But facing Xuancheng who knew nothing, he was eager to learn more details from her, so he faltered and said: "Fifth brother, I lost the battle and lost the city..."

The enemy has entered our urn, Xuancheng suddenly realized, and said: "So that's what happened."

"Father, did you say how to deal with this matter?" The five kings asked impatiently.

You must know that it was his father's imperial edict that blamed him for losing the city, taking away his military power, and calling him back to Beijing to question his crimes. According to his father's angry tone in the edict, it is hard for the five kings not to worry about his father. The purpose of recalling him to Beijing is to remove his title.

What he is most afraid of right now is that his father's will to punish him has been made, and he will not escape, and he will end up in the same fate as his eighth brother.

Xuancheng turned his back, walked a few steps in front of the five kings, deliberately lifted his nervousness, and then said unhurriedly: "How to deal with the fifth brother, my father never said anything about it. ,but……"

"But what?"

"However, because of your careless dispatch of troops, the army lost a good general and several fortresses. There were many voices of dissatisfaction with you, fifth brother, in the court, and even the censor advised the emperor that the prince broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people. Royal father severely punishes fifth brother you.

Father thought that you must have been deceived to cause your failure, and couldn't bear to blame you, and had to give an explanation to all the officials, so he called you back to Beijing to reflect on yourself. "

Xuancheng half-truth said that the voices of dissatisfaction in the court and the censor's remonstrance were true, but Lu Meng's attitude towards this matter was fabricated by her.

"That's all?" Wu Wang asked, blushing when he was poked at the place where he was ashamed.

"Only the five kings heard these few words, and Xuancheng's deliberate pause, immediately smelled something unusual.

"Fake!" He resolutely said: "Father can't be so tolerant!"

"Victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs. Xuancheng thinks that Brother Wu didn't lose to the enemy on purpose."

There is a saying in Xuancheng dialect: "Since this matter has passed, let it pass."

"Father's accident happened, how can the rest of our relatives kill each other and make outsiders laugh? Let Ling Jun let this matter go lightly in the future." She said thoughtfully.

The implication is that her father did not intend to let him go, but the person who holds power now is not their father, but their nephew.

The person in charge of this matter has been replaced, and this person does not want to hold the fault of the Five Kings.

What Xuancheng said just now was just an excuse to perfunctory outsiders.

The fifth king breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly found that his father was in a coma, and it was not a bad thing for his young nephew to ascend the throne, at least no one dared to pursue his own mistakes.

During this period of time, the worries and fears that weighed on his heart about how his father would deal with his dereliction of duty suddenly disappeared.

"Lingjun is still young, so he doesn't know how to govern the country. Brother Wu is older, and he understands government affairs far better than Xuancheng and Lingjun." Xuancheng said immediately after putting on top hats for the five kings.

"What do you mean..." the five kings hesitated.

"Outsiders can bully me or humiliate me, but I believe Wu Ge will definitely not do this.

So Xuancheng thinks that Ling Jun will be in the court in the future, and he will rely on you, Fifth Brother. "

Xuancheng lowered the status of himself and his nephew again, making his previous words flattering, saying: "Xuancheng and Lingjun are both willing to listen to Fifth Brother's words."

The five kings heard that she was going to let him be the regent, like a long-thirsty person who suddenly met the rain, his heart was full of enthusiasm, and he responded several times, and endured it? He didn't get carried away.

Xuancheng coaxed him away happily, picked up the tea that had already cooled down, used the tea lid to skim off the tea foam floating on the surface, and took a sip.

The bitter taste on the tip of her tongue made her mind clearer.

The weak are not as powerful as the strong, so if they want to overthrow the opponent, naturally they can only look for a chance to kill with one blow.

Showing weakness and currying favor, her series of actions are all aimed at taking off the opponent's guard.

People are always afraid of those fierce tigers and wolves with sharp teeth. How would they know that rabbits, which are harmless to humans and animals on the surface, will also eat meat.

Xuancheng thought about it? He suddenly let out a sneer, even if they knew, so what, they wouldn't care.

But the rabbit would still be afraid in front of the tiger. If her fifth elder brother noticed something strange just now and wanted to kill him, he probably wouldn't need one hand.

Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the letter on the desk, and her heart moved, what would be written inside? What?

Because her father and nephew couldn't do without her in the palace, she had been in the palace for a long time, and she borrowed her father, a palace she was very familiar with, as director of the palace every day, and asked her to bring the letter Feng Huansen wanted to send to Shu Dianhe. come here.

Picking up the envelope, she skimmed off the dust and squeezed it between her fingertips. She was so curious that she wanted to tear it open to see what was going on, but after thinking about it, she decided to give up.

This is a letter specially left for her by someone else, no matter who she belongs to, she should not touch her letter without permission.

Xuancheng at this time is still like a wife waiting for her husband to return home. Although she doesn't know when she will come back, she firmly believes that she will definitely come back at a certain moment.

July, August, September, October, the weather cools down, the noise of cicadas disappears in the treetops at some point, the thin cloud gauze on Gong'e's body gradually thickens, golden petals fall all over the palace road, osmanthus seeds The fragrance of flowers floated in the whole palace.

Xuancheng has no intention of lingering on these autumn scenery, she puts her own eyeliner around the five kings, and she sees every move of the five kings during this time.

It's not that she deliberately belittled anything, it's just that with her fifth brother's ability, it's okay to ask him to kill the enemy by brute force on the battlefield, but he really doesn't have this talent when it comes to governing the country and the people.

But he still has great ambitions, and he wants to rule out dissidents in the court before he even has a firm foothold.

Keep it? It's a disaster after all, Xuancheng is bound to clear him away, there is only one chance left.

She is waiting, waiting for the war in the frontier to calm down, waiting for the generals in the frontier to win over the hearts of the former five kings, waiting for all the civil and military officials in the whole dynasty to pay attention to her fifth brother's whereabouts, and then follow the moral to sweep the imperial city. The last haze that covered him left all the ministers and future generations speechless.

Tolerating the five kings to show off their power in the court several times, making the courtiers more dissatisfied with him;

Ignoring his corruption and accepting bribes, forming a party for personal gain, making him think that neither he nor his nephew can resist him;

Turning a blind eye to the grievances of the officials and the impeachments that were constantly presented, instead, in the name of the little emperor, he rewarded the five kings every now and then, and praised him more and more...

Until Xuancheng received a secret report from the frontier, the bow and arrow were finally put on the strings that had been prepared for it long ago.

The sun receded to the west mountain, leading to a round of bright moon, the celestial maidens lighted the star lamps immersed in the night one by one, the pedestrians on the street gradually became less and less, the wine shops and cloth shops along the street closed one after another, and the red candles were lit in the boudoir , whose husband and wife whispered.

Another day passed peacefully. If nothing happened, this night would be a very ordinary night, no different from the thousands of nights in the past.

The servant at the gate of the Fifth Prince's Mansion also thought so. While yawning, he hung the lighted lantern on the lintel again, and then returned to the mansion with the bamboo pole, ready to close the gate of the Palace.

At the moment when the gate was closed, the sound of horseshoes pierced through the air on the stone path in front of the palace gate, and he poked his head out curiously to check.

The visitor spotted him first, and shouted loudly: "The emperor has summoned you!" A single sentence tore apart the tranquility of the evening.

"Recently, for some reason, your majesty has not slept well at night, and is always awakened by nightmares.

After taking the emperor's pulse, the imperial doctor said that it was a disease of panic, and the treatment method required a person full of yang to accompany the emperor's bed at night, and deter those unclean things in the palace with vigor, so that the emperor could sleep peacefully. There was nothing he could do about it. "After seeing the five kings, the envoy said to him.

"Qiancheng has been in the battlefield for a long time, and he has a domineering king who can scare those dirty things out of his wits. The princess looked around and thought that Qiancheng was the most suitable person to accompany the emperor, so she sent a special minister to invite Qiancheng into the palace."

The five kings originally planned to spend this spring night with their new concubine, half of their clothes were untied, but when they suddenly interrupted their good business, they cursed angrily: "What are these imperial doctors doing? What are they eating? This one can't be cured, that one If they can’t be cured, what’s the use of raising them?”

"Yes, yes, yes." The envoy laughed along, patted his horse and said, "However, even the imperial physician can't cure the disease, but Qiancheng can. Doesn't this make Qiancheng unique, and it's the destiny?"

The words "God's Destiny" just blew into the heart of the five kings. He was praised as comfortable and comfortable, and the corners of his mouth were raised, but he pretended to be reluctant: "Since you said that it is the king, then the king will not Wouldn't it be disrespectful to the emperor's nephew to go? Forget it, this king will enter the palace tonight to take care of the place for him."

The emperor's grandson has been on the throne for so long, and he still calls him the emperor's nephew, which shows that he has never regarded the emperor's grandson as the emperor in his heart.

The envoy pretended not to hear, and answered everything.

The five kings were about to leave, but the envoy hurriedly stopped him: "Qiancheng, please wait a moment."

The Five Kings frowned, and said in a sudden displeasure, "What's the matter?" The person who asked him to leave

The envoy respectfully said: "The princess said that it is best to ask Qiancheng to wear armor and bring a treasured sword into the palace, because these things are brought down by Qiancheng from the battlefield, and they are stained with human blood. They are the best to drive away evil spirits." .”

"Trouble!" The five kings said impatiently: "What's the use of these things, this king alone is enough to deter those things."

The emissary spoke eloquently: "Princess, don't you want the five kings to fight with their own aura? The hostility of the armor and sword will scare away all the Xiao Xiao in the entire imperial city, not just within the palace or for a while." between.

Otherwise, if the emperor is frightened next time, he will have to trouble Qiancheng to go again..."

I was already very unhappy to be disturbed all night, if it was like this every night...

The five kings absolutely could not tolerate this, so they were persuaded by him, turned around and ordered someone to bring his sword, while he himself went into the inner room to put on the armor.

The envoy asked the five kings to go out. As soon as the sedan chair reached the courtyard, a man suddenly appeared and stood in front of them, shouting: "A thousand chariots are not allowed to enter the palace!"
