Chapter 17
On the road day and night, the reinforcements led by Mingjia Army marched at full speed under the leadership of Ming Youchen.Ming Youchen was injured by poisonous arrows in his early years, so he couldn't last a few days on the horse. Finally, he had to sit in a light carriage and run at full speed without reducing his speed, hoping to meet the emperor as soon as possible.
The army didn't understand why Xiangguo was in such a hurry?Seeing that Ming Youchen was almost fainted by the bumping of the carriage, and he was extremely uncomfortable but still refused to slow down the speed of the carriage, those who were close to Ming Youchen felt uncomfortable.
But in the face of Ming Youchen, who was trying to suppress the pain all over his body and seemed to be holding back his energy, and just wanted to hurry, no one dared to suggest slowing down the marching speed at this critical juncture.
A few days later, Ming Youchen's army diverted from the official road used by the emperor, and unexpectedly met Luan Tiance at the exit of the official road.
However, the emperor's demeanor was serene, and the send-off team he led was not chaotic or panic-stricken. Princess An Ning had a lot of dowry gifts. How could she look like she was running away as stated in the military newspaper?
"Xiangguo led the army, and they came here from the emperor's official road without my permission. I don't know what he wants to do?" Luan Tiance was full of surprise, then frowned and looked at Ming Youchen who was helped down from the carriage, his eyes shifted from The surprise quickly turned to gloom, "Could it be that Ming Xiangguo... intends to launch a military coup?"
"Your Majesty, the prime minister came to rescue you after receiving you being chased by Hu Yi and Sui Yan's army. My lord's heart to protect the king can be learned from the sun and the moon, and it is not a crime."
Seeing that Ming Youchen's face was pale and haggard, the generals of the famous family were obviously unable to speak for the time being due to the old illness caused by the long journey. They also thought of the matter of marching at full speed to rescue him before, and now they heard the emperor's words, and they all defended angrily.
"Joke! Lord Hu Yi is my brother-in-law, and the monarch of Sui Yan Kingdom is a modest gentleman. They are sincerely on good terms with the heavens. Where did they come to pursue? It is clear that your famous family has evil intentions! Well, you are wearing military uniforms and holding sharp knives. Is it just to snatch Princess An Ning's dowry?"
Luan Tiance didn't pay attention to the indignation of the generals of the famous family, he reprimanded them, pointing out that the famous family had a rebellious heart.
"It's too much! My family is loyal to the country, and the emperor is so suspicious that he insists on charging us with this huge crime!"
"Don't say that I didn't have the intention to offend the superior, even if I did, it was forced out by the emperor regardless of right and wrong!"
"The emperor insisted that my prime minister has ulterior motives, which is really chilling! It's better..."
"Shut up!" Ming Youchen, who had been resting silently, suddenly yelled sharply, and the surging indignation of the generals stopped for the time being.
Taking a deep breath, Ming Youchen gasped for breath, the loud roar just now exhausted his whole body strength, fortunately he stopped those generals of the famous family who couldn't hold back and wanted to take the opportunity to rebel against the emperor, and he felt relieved in his heart Be sure.
Looking up, Ming Youchen saw Luan Tiance stretching out his arms and waving lightly. Countless soldiers suddenly stood on the peaks on both sides of the escorting team led by the emperor, occupying the mountains. At a glance, there were about 30 to [-] people. Everyone was wearing the clothes of the southern defenders, and the leader of the army was Luo Feixun.
"Even if Ming Youchen is not guilty, there must be some people among the famous families who have long been rebellious. Fortunately, I have prepared in advance and ordered the general of Zhennan to lead the army to defend. Are you still not dismounting and accepting the surrender? Could it be that you really want to rebel?" Luan Tiance said. Sitting on the horse, he yelled at him calmly, with an awe-inspiring expression, full of imperial majesty, making people dare not look at him closely.
At this moment, all the famous scholars and generals knew that they had fallen into the trap of the emperor, and they could see that the other party wanted to eliminate them in one fell swoop.These people quickly estimated the strength of the two sides, and realized that their own troops were slightly more than those led by Luo Feixun, and immediately persuaded Ming Youchen in a low voice to tear his face apart, and took advantage of the situation to pull the emperor from his position.
Ming Youchen shook his head coldly, the generals thought that he was worried that the famous army would come from a long distance and they would be exhausted, and they were waiting to persuade them, but suddenly there was the sound of drums beating not far away, and a large number of troops came from the north to this side Come here.
"Is it General Nangong? Isn't he guarding the border? Could it be that he came here specially on the order of Xiangguo?"
"It turns out that Mr. Xiangguo has been on guard for a long time, no wonder he is so calm and composed."
All the famous generals knew that Nangong Rui, the general at the border, was the most important general and brother-in-law of Ming Youchen, and they were even more determined. They turned their heads to look at Luan Tiance, who was calm and calm, and then turned to Ming Youchen. Seeing that his coach's face was calm and without any color, his brows were deeply frowned.
Everyone in the famous family followed Ming Youchen for many years, they saw something wrong when they saw this, they were all startled in their hearts, following Dahan, they couldn't help but blurted out and asked at the same time: "Could it be that General Nangong was not summoned by Xiangguo?"
At the same time as these words fell, the army led by Nangong Rui chanted the resounding slogan of King Qin escorting him in unison, and came behind Luan Tiance at full speed, forming a momentum of encircling the famous army with the troops brought by Luo Feixun. All the celebrities and generals changed their faces.
"How could General Nangong suddenly change his mind? He was favored by Xiangguo, so he shouldn't betray Lord Xiangguo?"
"The emperor actually has a way to make General Nangong turn against him?"
"But the emperor seems to be irritable and irritable. How can there be such a deep city?"
Ming Youchen listened to the hasty conversation of the generals, and felt that the arm of the person supporting him was trembling badly. He gently pushed the person's support away, put his hand on the carriage shaft, and looked up at Luan Tiance.
The two of them looked at each other, and they both knew what they were thinking at this moment.
The military report that Ming Youchen received that the emperor was in danger must have been fabricated, and the colonel who reported the letter did not seem to be fake. This was obviously also deliberately arranged by Luan Tiance to make the other party think that the emperor was in a very dangerous situation.
As for the confirmed secret report that Ming Youchen received later, it must be that the spies he arranged were found out by the emperor's people, so they were forced to falsely report urgent military information to the capital, but Hu Yi and Sui Yan did not actually force him to go.
The emperor was sure that Ming Youchen would rush to rescue him regardless of everything, not only because of the ambiguous relationship between them, but also because of Luan Tiance's certainty that Ming Youchen would not let him, the nominal emperor, die, lest the royal family be in chaos again. It takes effort to appease and suppress: just like the emperor didn't want Ming Youchen to die when he didn't clear up the troubles of the famous family.
He knew that he would come, he knew that he would wear out his sick body due to the rapid march, and he also knew that he would be as hard to say as he was at this moment, giving the soldiers of the three armies a feeling of being ashamed and indefensible.
Ming Youchen stared at Luan Tiance quietly, and a faint smile slowly spread from the corner of his lips, because he had silently reached an agreement when he met the emperor's gaze just now.If he hadn't resisted at this moment, avoiding this bloody battle that was doomed to fail, then Luan Tiance would not have killed the whole family of famous families like he did to King Zhao.
Nodding silently, Ming Youchen signaled the generals behind him to dismount; Luan Tiance waved his hand to stop the three armies from shouting long live like a rainbow.
"I have just heard the words of the famous generals, and you are very likely to be fooled. Seeing that Xiangguo has been assisting the government for many years and saving you, and now it is Princess Anning's happy day, I don't want Hu Yi and Sui Yanguo to be fooled. Seeing that the soldiers of the three armies in Tiandu are killing each other, I am pardoning you and others for the capital crime of ignoring the king."
As soon as these words came out, there was another roar among the three armies, and all the soldiers praised the wiseness and kindness of the Holy Majesty.
"Remove Ming Youchen from the post of Xiangguo, and temporarily detain him and the famous generals. All the troops under his command will be redistributed by the two generals Nangong Rui and Luo Feixun. The rest of the troops transferred from the vicinity of the capital will immediately return to the original territory and wait. My subsequent orders."
There was no color on Luan Tiance's face. He nodded calmly and then stopped the cheers of the troops from the south and the frontier. He turned the subject lightly and appeased the soldiers led by famous generals and soldiers from other places; Song dispelled the doubts in the hearts of these soldiers.
The soldiers hesitantly obeyed the orders of Nangong Rui and Luo Feixun's generals, and slowly shunted into the new general's tent, not forgetting to look back at them as if they had turned into a statue, and did not respond to their actions, let alone their expressions. Fear is called worrying dust, and I feel ashamed and uneasy in my heart.
Luan Tiance didn't say anything more, what he had to do now was to solemnly hand Luan Lingxuan into the hands of Lord Hu Yi, and remind him to treat his most beloved imperial sister well.
The mutiny that occurred on the Sui-Yan border shocked the entire Tiandu, and the court ministers and even the common people were extremely stunned by the sudden change in the sky.When everyone talked about the accident, their eyebrows danced and their mouths splashed, and then they deeply admired the young emperor who was originally dispensable to Tiandu.
After more than a month, the mutiny that the emperor regained his real power was still the favorite topic of discussion in Tiandu people after dinner, and the officials in the court were even more frightened.
Seeing Luan Tiance, all civil and military officials showed great respect and fear, not daring to be negligent like before.Now, as long as the emperor's expression changed slightly or his words became harsher, all the officials would kneel down for fear of offending the emperor, which finally gave Luan Tiance the self-consciousness of being a king.
The emperor, who was secretly delighted by these changes, did not dare to relax his suppression of famous scholars.
After sending Luan Lingxuan away, he hurriedly led the two armies back to the capital, replaced all the guards in the important areas of the capital and the sergeants Habayashi inside and outside the palace, and took all the famous generals with heavy soldiers to the prison, depriving them of their strength, Put these people under house arrest in a famous family and order heavy soldiers to guard them strictly.
The emperor had Ming Youchen's private meeting hall disbanded, copper coins were remade, officials were replaced, some laws and regulations formulated by Ming Youchen were removed, and the evidence of Ming's family's violations of law and discipline was presented. He also made up his mind to severely punish the former noble family who had power over the ruling and opposition parties.
As a result, most of the disciples of famous families took refuge in their political opponents, and a small number resigned from office to avoid the world. All the ministers reported the crimes of Youchen and his clan, and there were more than [-] major crimes alone.
Luan Tiance was sitting in Zixiao Palace at this moment, looking at the notebook in his hand, and then glanced at the pile of memorials next to him, with a strong sneer on his face.
These accusations are that youchen has not abided by the way of being a minister for many years, manipulated the government, despised the emperor and the queen mother, insulted the clan kings at will, ignored the great crimes of the court, and even some accused youchen of roaring at the court, corrupting the law, conniving How could the clansman implore the emperor to punish him for such nonsensical and fabricated crimes as occupying the people's fields and bullying men and women?
Suddenly thinking of the Empress Dowager Zhaohua, it was a great miracle that those villains who followed her power didn't explicitly request the emperor to kill Ming Youchen and Ling Chi in the memorial.
Thinking about it this way, Ming Youchen's prestige still has a great influence in the hearts of those snobs.
The emperor smiled noncommittally, threw away the bag in his hand, and took Du Chengjing straight to Yehong Palace.He is in a very good mood, because no matter how powerful Ming Youchen is, he is undoubtedly the winner today.
Walking into the newly decorated Yehong Palace, Luan Tiance felt very pleasing to the eye.
After he returned to the capital, he ordered people to change all the decorations here, and the curtains also changed from bright yellow and light blue to moon red and light gray.There is no trace of the things Ming Youchen used that only the emperor can enjoy. Seeing the bright yellow color symbolizing the emperor inside and outside the Yehong Palace changed to the rich red color, Luan Tiance's mood is even more joyful.
Now he is the real master, he controls the world and Mingyouchen, this experience makes the emperor feel very comfortable.
Leisurely looking at Ming Youchen, who was wearing a bright red royal robe and sitting quietly behind the desk flipping through the piano score, Luan Tiance unconsciously showed inexplicable enthusiasm in his eyes.
After escorting Ming Youchen back to the capital, he did not punish Ming Youchen like he did to other members of the famous family. Instead, he only exempted Ming Youchen from all official positions, searched and destroyed the secret edict given by the former emperor, and let the other party take the title of the former king. The king of Xin stayed in the palace and enjoyed all kinds of privileges except freedom.
At this moment, Luan Tiance had to admire Ming Youchen's extraordinary bearing.Seeing such a calm man, if the emperor knew that he was firmly grasping the royal power, he would even have the illusion that time was still stuck in the past.
"The clothes that Aiqing is wearing today are pretty good too... Well, red is more suitable for you. Who makes King Xin's complexion as white and clear as jade? Only with such a bright color as a foil can it be regarded as complementing each other."
Sincerely admired, except for the harshness of intentionally comparing Ming Youchen with the concubines in the harem, Luan Tiance also lamented that such expensive and vulgar clothes were strangely noble and extravagant when worn on Ming Youchen. Nothing vulgar.
Ming Youchen stopped flipping the piano score, and gave Luan Tiance a cold look, with a faint sarcasm in his eyes.
Now that the situation is reversed, both the monarch and his subjects know that these clothes were prepared and sent by the emperor, if Ming Youchen didn't wear them, he would have no clothes to cover his body, how could he be willing to wear these clothes to please the Sacred Heart?
"Your majesty has changed really fast. In just over a month, he called me Aiqing. Hehe, the emperor has noticed what I am wearing now. Hasn't he thought about how to deal with me?" Ming Youchen still Enjoying the privilege of seeing the king without worshiping him was given by the late emperor, and Luan Tiance did not order it back for the time being, so he did not blame the person in front of him for still being so arrogant.
"I promised to love you before, as long as you are loyal to me, be my good minister with peace of mind, look at me without prejudice, abide by the rules and regulations, and govern the country well for me, I will bestow high-ranking officials, great salary, glory and wealth , give you the supreme honor that cannot be given to you before."
Luan Tiance said with a light smile, he is the winner, of course he can speak to the loser in such a condescending tone.
"The emperor is coaxing people to play again. You finally got everything you wanted, how could you let the tiger go back to the mountain and give me a chance to regain power?" Ming Youchen was unmoved, and retorted lightly.
"Since King Xin understands, he shouldn't treat me like this. Looking at your indifferent face all day long will make me feel that I have treated you wrong. Don't tell me you have fewer servants in this extravagant Yehong Palace? The decorations are not exquisite enough. Expensive? The food in the brocade clothes you enjoy is poor? Or do you think it’s too little for me to let you enjoy the favor that other courtiers don’t have?"
"Are these the world that the emperor promised to create for me?"
The color on Luan Tiance's face quickly receded, his piercing eyes dimmed slightly, but soon a smile as bright as the sun appeared on his mouth.
"I didn't write to the king here to hear disappointing words. I think I treat you well, don't you think that the rewards I gave you are not enough?"
Ming Youchen plucked the strings lightly, ignoring the emperor's childish provocation.
"I know that you are unhappy because of your carelessness and the fact that you were plotted against me in a hurry to save me, but since ancient times, you have won the king and defeated the enemy, and there is no point in complaining now. As long as you did not murder the kings of Chu and Qin, I will not hurt you. You. You need to remember, I said before that you still have the entire Heavenly Capital, and I swear to have it in this life!"
Seeing that Ming Youchen seemed to have finally reacted to his words, she turned her head and stared at him silently.Luan Tiance paused, and said solemnly: "I want you to know that what I said will come true, and it will always count!"
"You suspect that I killed your brother? That means you still suspect that I have the intention to usurp power? So I can't blame you for being preemptive, but only blame myself for being incompetent." Ming Youchen narrowed his eyes ironically. , "Then should I be thankful that I haven't let you find evidence yet?"
Luan Tiance doesn't like Ming Youchen's tone of voice, if he heard the other party address him with "you" and "I" before, he would be happy in his heart, but now he hears Ming Youchen's plain words, it's just harsh.
"You are still so insane! Before you forced the palace to meddle in politics, murdered my beloved general Song Zhenshan, and you dared to marry Lingxuan away in my name. I will not mention it; but after a long talk with you, Jun Hong was raped by others." Killed, and after you went to visit the second brother, he also passed away."
"Did the emperor come here to settle these old accounts with me?"
"Although I haven't found any evidence of your participation in these things, I will never forget the pain and anger of the members of the royal family who left me one by one. The vow I made to avenge them was not just on a whim."
Quickly approaching Ming Youchen, amidst Gu Deng and Shen Ye's uncontrollable exclamations, the emperor roughly dragged Ming Youchen from behind the desk and into his arms, and grabbed the indifferent man's neck with his palm.
"Have you finally thought of an excuse to kill me?" Ming Youchen said with a smile, he barely regained his vitality after recuperating for more than a month.Facing the current situation, he is very likely to be precarious, and his life and death depend on Luan Tiance's thoughts or emotions, and he will not worry about life and death like Gu Deng and Shen Ye.
"Don't provoke me on purpose! I'd rather convince myself that you couldn't have killed Junhong at that time, nor would you be so cruel to get rid of your second brother who was no threat to you. So as long as you don't mention those things that make me unhappy Of course I don't want to hurt you."
The emperor said softly, the previous austere demeanor no longer exists.His hand moved upwards, gently stroking Ming Youchen's indifferent face, like the most considerate lover in the world.
Afterwards, Luan Tiance waved someone to take Gudeng and Shen Ye down, and walked quickly to the side of the wide couch in the inner hall of Yehong Palace with the person in his arms in his arms.
The surroundings of the two of them were quiet, and there was no one in sight.
"I don't care who else is in your heart, I just want you to understand that the one who owns you at this moment is me, and the one who will really capture your heart in the future will be me! If you want to use the former emperor to make me unhappy, then I will I have to refresh my body first.”
Ming Youchen raised his eyebrows indifferently, as if he was going to refute the emperor's confident remarks, but he seemed unwilling to discuss this topic with Luan Tiance.After this change of spirit, he was pushed down on the couch by Luan Tiance, who was in high spirits and came to court him.
The bright red and gorgeous royal robe was torn off and thrown on the ground. The emperor let out a deep cry full of possessiveness and attack power, without any concealment.
Soon, a burst of uncontrollable moaning accompanied by extreme pain, accompanied by these roar-like gasps, seemed to float in the huge inner hall.
The night dew was deep, and Luan Tiance finally left the couch. Satisfied, he stood up and took two steps forward. The maid who was waiting outside the palace hurriedly lowered her head and entered, and put the brand new clothes she had prepared on Luan Tiance's naked back, covering his body. The emperor's strong and strong body.
Several other palace maids quickly put away the clothes scattered on the floor in front of the couch by the emperor and King Xin, and bowed back.During the whole process, they did not glance at the people on the couch.
Luan Tiance turned his head and saw that Ming Youfa was covered with a silk quilt, but it was difficult to completely cover the other's messy black hair, as well as half of his exposed shoulder and a small smooth calf underneath.
Slowly moving his eyes up with complicated emotions, the emperor saw that the person in the couch closed his eyes slightly, his face was slightly flushed but his expression was extremely indifferent, which was similar to his expression in the passion before, except that some pain was erased.
In the past, Ming Youchen held great power, when the two of them did this kind of thing, Luan Tiance remembered that the other party would most likely refuse, even if he finally acquiesced in his closeness, he would be half-hearted, which seemed a bit reluctant or inappropriate.
However, Ming Youchen is now completely indifferent to his actions and fiery desires, not only does not say anything in his mouth, but also does not resist in his body, as if he doesn't care what he thinks, and only hopes that he will leave quickly after venting, so that Live a life without being disturbed.
This situation made Luan Tiance greatly annoyed, and the previously high passion and the flames beating his chest seemed to be extinguished by a basin of cold water.Huang's intuition is that Ming Youchen doesn't want to face him, maybe the other party is just perfunctory him, hoping that he will get bored with the mild and alienated relationship between them as soon as possible, so that he will never go into Yehong Palace again.
"I won't let you do what you want!" Throwing down these words ruthlessly as if talking to himself, Luan Tiance reprimanded the maid who wanted to tie his clothes back, and strode out of the inner hall with inexplicable anger.
The night wind blows, and Luan Tiance looks up at the branches blown by the wind. The sense of control that he had in Yehong Palace before suddenly disappeared. The feeling is also slowly receding.
The emperor suddenly felt a little chilly, and while he was pulling up his clothes, he recalled Ming Youchen's flat expression in the bed before, and his attitude of ignoring him these days, and the anger that had just been suppressed surged again.
Now that the world and the people are under his control, Luan Tiance always thought that after he got these things, he might consider executing some people from famous families, including Ming Youchen.At least, he thinks he might be hesitant to kill the person he's just been flirting with.
However, at this moment the emperor found helplessly that after trampling the earth under his feet alone, he had no intention of getting rid of Ming Youchen at all, and even completely deprived the power of famous families, and punished some famous family members who bullied others.
Luan Tiance understood that he was not a soft-hearted person, and he would not condone those who threatened the throne, but Ming Youchen was undoubtedly a unique exception.
He couldn't tell why this person could influence or sway his thoughts and decisions. The emperor only knew that he couldn't kill him heartlessly before Ming Youchen looked at him like he stared at the former emperor.
However, if there is such a day...
There was a helpless wry smile on the corner of Luan Tiance's mouth, because he knew that if that day came, he would be even more reluctant to kill Ming Youchen.
That person gave him an unfathomable and ungraspable feeling. He was clearly in his arms, and he often felt that he couldn't really own it, just like his doom and magic obstacles, making him not a real person. emperor.
As an emperor, he must consider leaving a suitable successor for this great country.Luan Tiance understood that he should, as before, raise a few more little princes when Duan Yuzi did not disrupt the palace, and choose the candidate for the prince from among them.
Now that the royal power is in his hands, he is actually unable to embrace anyone other than Youchen. Every time he thinks that he wants to be like the first emperor who clearly loves a person but can't say, can't hug, and has skin-to-skin contact with others against his will, he feels a strong feeling. Strong repulsion and disgust arise spontaneously.
However, as an emperor, he must benevolent to the harem, Luan Tiance has to withstand the pressure of the queen mother every day to stay away from those concubines, but Ming Youchen is ungrateful for his exclusive favor and loyalty, and even more unmoved. He is still so indifferent. He hated it so much that his joints ached but he didn't know how to deal with it.
Inadvertently recalling how he got along with Ming Youchen these days, Luan Tiance sometimes couldn't stand that person's attitude, deliberately went to stay overnight in the concubine's womb but couldn't embrace those perfect women, and went back to Purple City after chatting with them a few gossips. Xiaogong.
It is undeniable that Ming Youchen changed him a lot, at least in this respect, he could not be a qualified emperor, and even distorted a man's principles and primitive desires.
Out of some kind of mood, the emperor deliberately let people tell Ming Youchen about staying in the concubine's womb, so that people could secretly observe the other party's words and deeds.But Luan Tiance received the rewards that Ming Youchen would always treat indifferently, no matter whether the emperor came or not, he would eat, drink medicine, and sleep according to the habit, without feeling sad at all.
Luan Tiance sighed heavily. He tried his best not to think about these helpless things. At this moment, he was only glad that Ming Youchen hadn't found any evidence that Ming Youchen had murdered Luan Junhong and Luan Qingning. Blood relative?
Exhaling lightly, Luan Tiance's eyes quickly gathered a bright light again.
"Cheng Jing, why is it so easy to win the world, but so difficult to conquer a person's heart? Could it be that I have given in and paid less for him?"
"The old slave is a useless person, and he doesn't know much about love. But... hehe." Du Chengjing watched the emperor's face return to normal, and immediately said with a chuckle: "The old slave knows that His Majesty already has the answer in his heart, so why should He take it? The old slave is not a man to make fun of?"
"You know what I'm planning? Tell me what I'm thinking right now?"
"This old slave dares to speculate that His Majesty must be thinking of the words "sincerity and sincerity make gold and stone open"."
"You old slave is getting more and more slippery." Luan Tiance's mood suddenly improved, he laughed and continued to walk forward.
Du Chengjing is right!No matter what, he is the emperor, he is the only ruler of Tiandu, he can control anyone's life, death and fate at will, as long as he continues to be strong like this, he believes that Ming Youchen can't regain power and will always be content with him Under the body!He will occupy Ming Youchen's heart like he seized Tiandu!
No matter, that person is willing or not!As long as the other party doesn't kill his relatives, he has the confidence, patience and infinite means to win everything!
After the morning court the next day, Nangong Rui came to Zixiao Palace to resign. He is a border guard with heavy responsibilities. Even if Hu Yi and Tiandu are repaired at this time, it is impossible for him to stay in the capital for a long time.
"General Nangong has been loyal for generations. Your grandfather and father were fierce generals who sacrificed their lives for the country. Both the late emperor and I appreciate your family's loyalty. In the case of King Qin a few days ago, you should act immediately after receiving my secret order. At a critical moment Distinguishing right from wrong, leading the army to protect him, and letting me know that I have not misjudged the person, really comforts my heart."
Luan Tiance waved to Nangong Rui who was kneeling to leave, and he really praised him a few words.
"It is the duty of the general to share the worries and allegiance of the emperor, and it is not worth mentioning. Your Majesty's praise makes the general shameless."
"General Nangong is loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and he deserves my praise. These days, I have been trying to figure out what good things to reward you, but you are in a hurry to go back as a teacher, so I can't think of it for a while."
Luan Tiance said with a smile, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Nangong Rui's face changing slightly when he heard the words, he seemed to be embarrassed, and immediately spoke again calmly.
"If you have something to say, you might as well speak it out. General Nangong has made such great contributions to me. Whatever you ask, as long as it doesn't harm the people, I will grant it."
"As a minister, the last general should serve our emperor, and he dare not extravagantly expect a heavy reward from His Majesty. There is only one thing that should be reported to His Majesty."
"Is it related to King Xin?"
"Your Majesty is wise, you can guess right. What the general will say next is indeed related to Xiangguo... and King Xin." Nan Gongrui said, flipping up his robe and kneeling on the ground again, "The general is very grateful for the kindness of King Xin. , It was he who single-handedly promoted the general to go to the border, and took on the important task of guarding our border, and glorified the lintel of my Nangong family."
"Do you feel ashamed of betraying Ming Youchen at a critical moment, and want to intercede for him? I remind you at this moment that you are my servant, and you can only obey the emperor of Tiandu. Inappropriate loyalty and compassion."
"The last general dare not dare!" Nangong Rui lowered his head even lower, "To tell you the truth, King Xin once summoned the last general before he took office, saying that it was not his talent to let the last general guard the border. Because only In terms of leading troops to fight, I am afraid that there is no one in the world who is the enemy of the King of Chu."
"It's true what he said."
"Xin Wang bluntly said that he asked his ministers to go to the border just because he was loyal and would not abandon the people and the country for his own selfishness. He repeatedly asked that if His Majesty ordered it in the future, he would not hesitate to go through fire and water for my emperor. , even if His Majesty asks the last general to deal with him as the enemy, the last general must go all out and will not be merciful."
"What did you say?" Luan Tiance was extremely shocked, but his face was only slightly moved.
"At that time, the general didn't know what King Xin was referring to, but when he received His Majesty's secret edict that day, the general understood. King Xin knew that this day would come, but he still gave the general the same order, which shows that he has great respect for Tiandu, It is all out of loyalty and love for His Majesty."
"Really?" Luan Tiance asked in a deep voice, his eyes were complicated and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Now that the king of Xin led the army to smuggle His Majesty's royal officialdom, and his behavior was wrong, I finally begged His Majesty to read his sincerity. The sky can see it. I hope that my lord will be able to see the details, open the grace of heaven, and pardon his serious crimes and give him a lighter sentence. Let him be free." Nangong Rui broke his heart, and finally boldly spoke out what he wanted.
"General Nangong doesn't want rewards before he leaves. Do you just want to ask me for this favor? Hmph, could it be that Ming Youchen didn't tell you to obey my orders? When you received the secret envoy and edict sent by me that day, you didn't Did you listen to your fate?"
"The last general doesn't dare!" Nangong Rui kowtowed a few times when he heard the emperor's bad tone.
"Forget it, the three generations of Zhongliang of your Nangong family are not the ones who follow others and add insult to injury. At this moment, you are still thinking of old feelings and begging for mercy for King Xin, unlike other officials who only want to protect themselves. I believe in the general's loyalty. If it weren't for this, I would On that day, I will not send an edict to the general in distress."
At this time, Luan Tiance spoke softly and ordered the kneeling person to stand up.
"I've really considered your request. Now I don't deal with King Xin immediately because he has served in the government for many years. If the courtiers have no complaints against him, I would like to allow him to be quiet. As for your wife... Although she is Xin Wang's sister has never done any evil, so she is naturally not among the famous criminals, so I will not embarrass her."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your great kindness. I wish to serve my emperor forever and ever, and I will never give up!" Seeing the gentleness of the sky, Nangong kowtowed a few more times before retreating.
"Crack!" After Nangong Rui left, Luan Tiance slapped the desk heavily, scaring the two servants who were about to rub the ink for him to the ground, fearing that the emperor would vent his inexplicable anger on them.
The army didn't understand why Xiangguo was in such a hurry?Seeing that Ming Youchen was almost fainted by the bumping of the carriage, and he was extremely uncomfortable but still refused to slow down the speed of the carriage, those who were close to Ming Youchen felt uncomfortable.
But in the face of Ming Youchen, who was trying to suppress the pain all over his body and seemed to be holding back his energy, and just wanted to hurry, no one dared to suggest slowing down the marching speed at this critical juncture.
A few days later, Ming Youchen's army diverted from the official road used by the emperor, and unexpectedly met Luan Tiance at the exit of the official road.
However, the emperor's demeanor was serene, and the send-off team he led was not chaotic or panic-stricken. Princess An Ning had a lot of dowry gifts. How could she look like she was running away as stated in the military newspaper?
"Xiangguo led the army, and they came here from the emperor's official road without my permission. I don't know what he wants to do?" Luan Tiance was full of surprise, then frowned and looked at Ming Youchen who was helped down from the carriage, his eyes shifted from The surprise quickly turned to gloom, "Could it be that Ming Xiangguo... intends to launch a military coup?"
"Your Majesty, the prime minister came to rescue you after receiving you being chased by Hu Yi and Sui Yan's army. My lord's heart to protect the king can be learned from the sun and the moon, and it is not a crime."
Seeing that Ming Youchen's face was pale and haggard, the generals of the famous family were obviously unable to speak for the time being due to the old illness caused by the long journey. They also thought of the matter of marching at full speed to rescue him before, and now they heard the emperor's words, and they all defended angrily.
"Joke! Lord Hu Yi is my brother-in-law, and the monarch of Sui Yan Kingdom is a modest gentleman. They are sincerely on good terms with the heavens. Where did they come to pursue? It is clear that your famous family has evil intentions! Well, you are wearing military uniforms and holding sharp knives. Is it just to snatch Princess An Ning's dowry?"
Luan Tiance didn't pay attention to the indignation of the generals of the famous family, he reprimanded them, pointing out that the famous family had a rebellious heart.
"It's too much! My family is loyal to the country, and the emperor is so suspicious that he insists on charging us with this huge crime!"
"Don't say that I didn't have the intention to offend the superior, even if I did, it was forced out by the emperor regardless of right and wrong!"
"The emperor insisted that my prime minister has ulterior motives, which is really chilling! It's better..."
"Shut up!" Ming Youchen, who had been resting silently, suddenly yelled sharply, and the surging indignation of the generals stopped for the time being.
Taking a deep breath, Ming Youchen gasped for breath, the loud roar just now exhausted his whole body strength, fortunately he stopped those generals of the famous family who couldn't hold back and wanted to take the opportunity to rebel against the emperor, and he felt relieved in his heart Be sure.
Looking up, Ming Youchen saw Luan Tiance stretching out his arms and waving lightly. Countless soldiers suddenly stood on the peaks on both sides of the escorting team led by the emperor, occupying the mountains. At a glance, there were about 30 to [-] people. Everyone was wearing the clothes of the southern defenders, and the leader of the army was Luo Feixun.
"Even if Ming Youchen is not guilty, there must be some people among the famous families who have long been rebellious. Fortunately, I have prepared in advance and ordered the general of Zhennan to lead the army to defend. Are you still not dismounting and accepting the surrender? Could it be that you really want to rebel?" Luan Tiance said. Sitting on the horse, he yelled at him calmly, with an awe-inspiring expression, full of imperial majesty, making people dare not look at him closely.
At this moment, all the famous scholars and generals knew that they had fallen into the trap of the emperor, and they could see that the other party wanted to eliminate them in one fell swoop.These people quickly estimated the strength of the two sides, and realized that their own troops were slightly more than those led by Luo Feixun, and immediately persuaded Ming Youchen in a low voice to tear his face apart, and took advantage of the situation to pull the emperor from his position.
Ming Youchen shook his head coldly, the generals thought that he was worried that the famous army would come from a long distance and they would be exhausted, and they were waiting to persuade them, but suddenly there was the sound of drums beating not far away, and a large number of troops came from the north to this side Come here.
"Is it General Nangong? Isn't he guarding the border? Could it be that he came here specially on the order of Xiangguo?"
"It turns out that Mr. Xiangguo has been on guard for a long time, no wonder he is so calm and composed."
All the famous generals knew that Nangong Rui, the general at the border, was the most important general and brother-in-law of Ming Youchen, and they were even more determined. They turned their heads to look at Luan Tiance, who was calm and calm, and then turned to Ming Youchen. Seeing that his coach's face was calm and without any color, his brows were deeply frowned.
Everyone in the famous family followed Ming Youchen for many years, they saw something wrong when they saw this, they were all startled in their hearts, following Dahan, they couldn't help but blurted out and asked at the same time: "Could it be that General Nangong was not summoned by Xiangguo?"
At the same time as these words fell, the army led by Nangong Rui chanted the resounding slogan of King Qin escorting him in unison, and came behind Luan Tiance at full speed, forming a momentum of encircling the famous army with the troops brought by Luo Feixun. All the celebrities and generals changed their faces.
"How could General Nangong suddenly change his mind? He was favored by Xiangguo, so he shouldn't betray Lord Xiangguo?"
"The emperor actually has a way to make General Nangong turn against him?"
"But the emperor seems to be irritable and irritable. How can there be such a deep city?"
Ming Youchen listened to the hasty conversation of the generals, and felt that the arm of the person supporting him was trembling badly. He gently pushed the person's support away, put his hand on the carriage shaft, and looked up at Luan Tiance.
The two of them looked at each other, and they both knew what they were thinking at this moment.
The military report that Ming Youchen received that the emperor was in danger must have been fabricated, and the colonel who reported the letter did not seem to be fake. This was obviously also deliberately arranged by Luan Tiance to make the other party think that the emperor was in a very dangerous situation.
As for the confirmed secret report that Ming Youchen received later, it must be that the spies he arranged were found out by the emperor's people, so they were forced to falsely report urgent military information to the capital, but Hu Yi and Sui Yan did not actually force him to go.
The emperor was sure that Ming Youchen would rush to rescue him regardless of everything, not only because of the ambiguous relationship between them, but also because of Luan Tiance's certainty that Ming Youchen would not let him, the nominal emperor, die, lest the royal family be in chaos again. It takes effort to appease and suppress: just like the emperor didn't want Ming Youchen to die when he didn't clear up the troubles of the famous family.
He knew that he would come, he knew that he would wear out his sick body due to the rapid march, and he also knew that he would be as hard to say as he was at this moment, giving the soldiers of the three armies a feeling of being ashamed and indefensible.
Ming Youchen stared at Luan Tiance quietly, and a faint smile slowly spread from the corner of his lips, because he had silently reached an agreement when he met the emperor's gaze just now.If he hadn't resisted at this moment, avoiding this bloody battle that was doomed to fail, then Luan Tiance would not have killed the whole family of famous families like he did to King Zhao.
Nodding silently, Ming Youchen signaled the generals behind him to dismount; Luan Tiance waved his hand to stop the three armies from shouting long live like a rainbow.
"I have just heard the words of the famous generals, and you are very likely to be fooled. Seeing that Xiangguo has been assisting the government for many years and saving you, and now it is Princess Anning's happy day, I don't want Hu Yi and Sui Yanguo to be fooled. Seeing that the soldiers of the three armies in Tiandu are killing each other, I am pardoning you and others for the capital crime of ignoring the king."
As soon as these words came out, there was another roar among the three armies, and all the soldiers praised the wiseness and kindness of the Holy Majesty.
"Remove Ming Youchen from the post of Xiangguo, and temporarily detain him and the famous generals. All the troops under his command will be redistributed by the two generals Nangong Rui and Luo Feixun. The rest of the troops transferred from the vicinity of the capital will immediately return to the original territory and wait. My subsequent orders."
There was no color on Luan Tiance's face. He nodded calmly and then stopped the cheers of the troops from the south and the frontier. He turned the subject lightly and appeased the soldiers led by famous generals and soldiers from other places; Song dispelled the doubts in the hearts of these soldiers.
The soldiers hesitantly obeyed the orders of Nangong Rui and Luo Feixun's generals, and slowly shunted into the new general's tent, not forgetting to look back at them as if they had turned into a statue, and did not respond to their actions, let alone their expressions. Fear is called worrying dust, and I feel ashamed and uneasy in my heart.
Luan Tiance didn't say anything more, what he had to do now was to solemnly hand Luan Lingxuan into the hands of Lord Hu Yi, and remind him to treat his most beloved imperial sister well.
The mutiny that occurred on the Sui-Yan border shocked the entire Tiandu, and the court ministers and even the common people were extremely stunned by the sudden change in the sky.When everyone talked about the accident, their eyebrows danced and their mouths splashed, and then they deeply admired the young emperor who was originally dispensable to Tiandu.
After more than a month, the mutiny that the emperor regained his real power was still the favorite topic of discussion in Tiandu people after dinner, and the officials in the court were even more frightened.
Seeing Luan Tiance, all civil and military officials showed great respect and fear, not daring to be negligent like before.Now, as long as the emperor's expression changed slightly or his words became harsher, all the officials would kneel down for fear of offending the emperor, which finally gave Luan Tiance the self-consciousness of being a king.
The emperor, who was secretly delighted by these changes, did not dare to relax his suppression of famous scholars.
After sending Luan Lingxuan away, he hurriedly led the two armies back to the capital, replaced all the guards in the important areas of the capital and the sergeants Habayashi inside and outside the palace, and took all the famous generals with heavy soldiers to the prison, depriving them of their strength, Put these people under house arrest in a famous family and order heavy soldiers to guard them strictly.
The emperor had Ming Youchen's private meeting hall disbanded, copper coins were remade, officials were replaced, some laws and regulations formulated by Ming Youchen were removed, and the evidence of Ming's family's violations of law and discipline was presented. He also made up his mind to severely punish the former noble family who had power over the ruling and opposition parties.
As a result, most of the disciples of famous families took refuge in their political opponents, and a small number resigned from office to avoid the world. All the ministers reported the crimes of Youchen and his clan, and there were more than [-] major crimes alone.
Luan Tiance was sitting in Zixiao Palace at this moment, looking at the notebook in his hand, and then glanced at the pile of memorials next to him, with a strong sneer on his face.
These accusations are that youchen has not abided by the way of being a minister for many years, manipulated the government, despised the emperor and the queen mother, insulted the clan kings at will, ignored the great crimes of the court, and even some accused youchen of roaring at the court, corrupting the law, conniving How could the clansman implore the emperor to punish him for such nonsensical and fabricated crimes as occupying the people's fields and bullying men and women?
Suddenly thinking of the Empress Dowager Zhaohua, it was a great miracle that those villains who followed her power didn't explicitly request the emperor to kill Ming Youchen and Ling Chi in the memorial.
Thinking about it this way, Ming Youchen's prestige still has a great influence in the hearts of those snobs.
The emperor smiled noncommittally, threw away the bag in his hand, and took Du Chengjing straight to Yehong Palace.He is in a very good mood, because no matter how powerful Ming Youchen is, he is undoubtedly the winner today.
Walking into the newly decorated Yehong Palace, Luan Tiance felt very pleasing to the eye.
After he returned to the capital, he ordered people to change all the decorations here, and the curtains also changed from bright yellow and light blue to moon red and light gray.There is no trace of the things Ming Youchen used that only the emperor can enjoy. Seeing the bright yellow color symbolizing the emperor inside and outside the Yehong Palace changed to the rich red color, Luan Tiance's mood is even more joyful.
Now he is the real master, he controls the world and Mingyouchen, this experience makes the emperor feel very comfortable.
Leisurely looking at Ming Youchen, who was wearing a bright red royal robe and sitting quietly behind the desk flipping through the piano score, Luan Tiance unconsciously showed inexplicable enthusiasm in his eyes.
After escorting Ming Youchen back to the capital, he did not punish Ming Youchen like he did to other members of the famous family. Instead, he only exempted Ming Youchen from all official positions, searched and destroyed the secret edict given by the former emperor, and let the other party take the title of the former king. The king of Xin stayed in the palace and enjoyed all kinds of privileges except freedom.
At this moment, Luan Tiance had to admire Ming Youchen's extraordinary bearing.Seeing such a calm man, if the emperor knew that he was firmly grasping the royal power, he would even have the illusion that time was still stuck in the past.
"The clothes that Aiqing is wearing today are pretty good too... Well, red is more suitable for you. Who makes King Xin's complexion as white and clear as jade? Only with such a bright color as a foil can it be regarded as complementing each other."
Sincerely admired, except for the harshness of intentionally comparing Ming Youchen with the concubines in the harem, Luan Tiance also lamented that such expensive and vulgar clothes were strangely noble and extravagant when worn on Ming Youchen. Nothing vulgar.
Ming Youchen stopped flipping the piano score, and gave Luan Tiance a cold look, with a faint sarcasm in his eyes.
Now that the situation is reversed, both the monarch and his subjects know that these clothes were prepared and sent by the emperor, if Ming Youchen didn't wear them, he would have no clothes to cover his body, how could he be willing to wear these clothes to please the Sacred Heart?
"Your majesty has changed really fast. In just over a month, he called me Aiqing. Hehe, the emperor has noticed what I am wearing now. Hasn't he thought about how to deal with me?" Ming Youchen still Enjoying the privilege of seeing the king without worshiping him was given by the late emperor, and Luan Tiance did not order it back for the time being, so he did not blame the person in front of him for still being so arrogant.
"I promised to love you before, as long as you are loyal to me, be my good minister with peace of mind, look at me without prejudice, abide by the rules and regulations, and govern the country well for me, I will bestow high-ranking officials, great salary, glory and wealth , give you the supreme honor that cannot be given to you before."
Luan Tiance said with a light smile, he is the winner, of course he can speak to the loser in such a condescending tone.
"The emperor is coaxing people to play again. You finally got everything you wanted, how could you let the tiger go back to the mountain and give me a chance to regain power?" Ming Youchen was unmoved, and retorted lightly.
"Since King Xin understands, he shouldn't treat me like this. Looking at your indifferent face all day long will make me feel that I have treated you wrong. Don't tell me you have fewer servants in this extravagant Yehong Palace? The decorations are not exquisite enough. Expensive? The food in the brocade clothes you enjoy is poor? Or do you think it’s too little for me to let you enjoy the favor that other courtiers don’t have?"
"Are these the world that the emperor promised to create for me?"
The color on Luan Tiance's face quickly receded, his piercing eyes dimmed slightly, but soon a smile as bright as the sun appeared on his mouth.
"I didn't write to the king here to hear disappointing words. I think I treat you well, don't you think that the rewards I gave you are not enough?"
Ming Youchen plucked the strings lightly, ignoring the emperor's childish provocation.
"I know that you are unhappy because of your carelessness and the fact that you were plotted against me in a hurry to save me, but since ancient times, you have won the king and defeated the enemy, and there is no point in complaining now. As long as you did not murder the kings of Chu and Qin, I will not hurt you. You. You need to remember, I said before that you still have the entire Heavenly Capital, and I swear to have it in this life!"
Seeing that Ming Youchen seemed to have finally reacted to his words, she turned her head and stared at him silently.Luan Tiance paused, and said solemnly: "I want you to know that what I said will come true, and it will always count!"
"You suspect that I killed your brother? That means you still suspect that I have the intention to usurp power? So I can't blame you for being preemptive, but only blame myself for being incompetent." Ming Youchen narrowed his eyes ironically. , "Then should I be thankful that I haven't let you find evidence yet?"
Luan Tiance doesn't like Ming Youchen's tone of voice, if he heard the other party address him with "you" and "I" before, he would be happy in his heart, but now he hears Ming Youchen's plain words, it's just harsh.
"You are still so insane! Before you forced the palace to meddle in politics, murdered my beloved general Song Zhenshan, and you dared to marry Lingxuan away in my name. I will not mention it; but after a long talk with you, Jun Hong was raped by others." Killed, and after you went to visit the second brother, he also passed away."
"Did the emperor come here to settle these old accounts with me?"
"Although I haven't found any evidence of your participation in these things, I will never forget the pain and anger of the members of the royal family who left me one by one. The vow I made to avenge them was not just on a whim."
Quickly approaching Ming Youchen, amidst Gu Deng and Shen Ye's uncontrollable exclamations, the emperor roughly dragged Ming Youchen from behind the desk and into his arms, and grabbed the indifferent man's neck with his palm.
"Have you finally thought of an excuse to kill me?" Ming Youchen said with a smile, he barely regained his vitality after recuperating for more than a month.Facing the current situation, he is very likely to be precarious, and his life and death depend on Luan Tiance's thoughts or emotions, and he will not worry about life and death like Gu Deng and Shen Ye.
"Don't provoke me on purpose! I'd rather convince myself that you couldn't have killed Junhong at that time, nor would you be so cruel to get rid of your second brother who was no threat to you. So as long as you don't mention those things that make me unhappy Of course I don't want to hurt you."
The emperor said softly, the previous austere demeanor no longer exists.His hand moved upwards, gently stroking Ming Youchen's indifferent face, like the most considerate lover in the world.
Afterwards, Luan Tiance waved someone to take Gudeng and Shen Ye down, and walked quickly to the side of the wide couch in the inner hall of Yehong Palace with the person in his arms in his arms.
The surroundings of the two of them were quiet, and there was no one in sight.
"I don't care who else is in your heart, I just want you to understand that the one who owns you at this moment is me, and the one who will really capture your heart in the future will be me! If you want to use the former emperor to make me unhappy, then I will I have to refresh my body first.”
Ming Youchen raised his eyebrows indifferently, as if he was going to refute the emperor's confident remarks, but he seemed unwilling to discuss this topic with Luan Tiance.After this change of spirit, he was pushed down on the couch by Luan Tiance, who was in high spirits and came to court him.
The bright red and gorgeous royal robe was torn off and thrown on the ground. The emperor let out a deep cry full of possessiveness and attack power, without any concealment.
Soon, a burst of uncontrollable moaning accompanied by extreme pain, accompanied by these roar-like gasps, seemed to float in the huge inner hall.
The night dew was deep, and Luan Tiance finally left the couch. Satisfied, he stood up and took two steps forward. The maid who was waiting outside the palace hurriedly lowered her head and entered, and put the brand new clothes she had prepared on Luan Tiance's naked back, covering his body. The emperor's strong and strong body.
Several other palace maids quickly put away the clothes scattered on the floor in front of the couch by the emperor and King Xin, and bowed back.During the whole process, they did not glance at the people on the couch.
Luan Tiance turned his head and saw that Ming Youfa was covered with a silk quilt, but it was difficult to completely cover the other's messy black hair, as well as half of his exposed shoulder and a small smooth calf underneath.
Slowly moving his eyes up with complicated emotions, the emperor saw that the person in the couch closed his eyes slightly, his face was slightly flushed but his expression was extremely indifferent, which was similar to his expression in the passion before, except that some pain was erased.
In the past, Ming Youchen held great power, when the two of them did this kind of thing, Luan Tiance remembered that the other party would most likely refuse, even if he finally acquiesced in his closeness, he would be half-hearted, which seemed a bit reluctant or inappropriate.
However, Ming Youchen is now completely indifferent to his actions and fiery desires, not only does not say anything in his mouth, but also does not resist in his body, as if he doesn't care what he thinks, and only hopes that he will leave quickly after venting, so that Live a life without being disturbed.
This situation made Luan Tiance greatly annoyed, and the previously high passion and the flames beating his chest seemed to be extinguished by a basin of cold water.Huang's intuition is that Ming Youchen doesn't want to face him, maybe the other party is just perfunctory him, hoping that he will get bored with the mild and alienated relationship between them as soon as possible, so that he will never go into Yehong Palace again.
"I won't let you do what you want!" Throwing down these words ruthlessly as if talking to himself, Luan Tiance reprimanded the maid who wanted to tie his clothes back, and strode out of the inner hall with inexplicable anger.
The night wind blows, and Luan Tiance looks up at the branches blown by the wind. The sense of control that he had in Yehong Palace before suddenly disappeared. The feeling is also slowly receding.
The emperor suddenly felt a little chilly, and while he was pulling up his clothes, he recalled Ming Youchen's flat expression in the bed before, and his attitude of ignoring him these days, and the anger that had just been suppressed surged again.
Now that the world and the people are under his control, Luan Tiance always thought that after he got these things, he might consider executing some people from famous families, including Ming Youchen.At least, he thinks he might be hesitant to kill the person he's just been flirting with.
However, at this moment the emperor found helplessly that after trampling the earth under his feet alone, he had no intention of getting rid of Ming Youchen at all, and even completely deprived the power of famous families, and punished some famous family members who bullied others.
Luan Tiance understood that he was not a soft-hearted person, and he would not condone those who threatened the throne, but Ming Youchen was undoubtedly a unique exception.
He couldn't tell why this person could influence or sway his thoughts and decisions. The emperor only knew that he couldn't kill him heartlessly before Ming Youchen looked at him like he stared at the former emperor.
However, if there is such a day...
There was a helpless wry smile on the corner of Luan Tiance's mouth, because he knew that if that day came, he would be even more reluctant to kill Ming Youchen.
That person gave him an unfathomable and ungraspable feeling. He was clearly in his arms, and he often felt that he couldn't really own it, just like his doom and magic obstacles, making him not a real person. emperor.
As an emperor, he must consider leaving a suitable successor for this great country.Luan Tiance understood that he should, as before, raise a few more little princes when Duan Yuzi did not disrupt the palace, and choose the candidate for the prince from among them.
Now that the royal power is in his hands, he is actually unable to embrace anyone other than Youchen. Every time he thinks that he wants to be like the first emperor who clearly loves a person but can't say, can't hug, and has skin-to-skin contact with others against his will, he feels a strong feeling. Strong repulsion and disgust arise spontaneously.
However, as an emperor, he must benevolent to the harem, Luan Tiance has to withstand the pressure of the queen mother every day to stay away from those concubines, but Ming Youchen is ungrateful for his exclusive favor and loyalty, and even more unmoved. He is still so indifferent. He hated it so much that his joints ached but he didn't know how to deal with it.
Inadvertently recalling how he got along with Ming Youchen these days, Luan Tiance sometimes couldn't stand that person's attitude, deliberately went to stay overnight in the concubine's womb but couldn't embrace those perfect women, and went back to Purple City after chatting with them a few gossips. Xiaogong.
It is undeniable that Ming Youchen changed him a lot, at least in this respect, he could not be a qualified emperor, and even distorted a man's principles and primitive desires.
Out of some kind of mood, the emperor deliberately let people tell Ming Youchen about staying in the concubine's womb, so that people could secretly observe the other party's words and deeds.But Luan Tiance received the rewards that Ming Youchen would always treat indifferently, no matter whether the emperor came or not, he would eat, drink medicine, and sleep according to the habit, without feeling sad at all.
Luan Tiance sighed heavily. He tried his best not to think about these helpless things. At this moment, he was only glad that Ming Youchen hadn't found any evidence that Ming Youchen had murdered Luan Junhong and Luan Qingning. Blood relative?
Exhaling lightly, Luan Tiance's eyes quickly gathered a bright light again.
"Cheng Jing, why is it so easy to win the world, but so difficult to conquer a person's heart? Could it be that I have given in and paid less for him?"
"The old slave is a useless person, and he doesn't know much about love. But... hehe." Du Chengjing watched the emperor's face return to normal, and immediately said with a chuckle: "The old slave knows that His Majesty already has the answer in his heart, so why should He take it? The old slave is not a man to make fun of?"
"You know what I'm planning? Tell me what I'm thinking right now?"
"This old slave dares to speculate that His Majesty must be thinking of the words "sincerity and sincerity make gold and stone open"."
"You old slave is getting more and more slippery." Luan Tiance's mood suddenly improved, he laughed and continued to walk forward.
Du Chengjing is right!No matter what, he is the emperor, he is the only ruler of Tiandu, he can control anyone's life, death and fate at will, as long as he continues to be strong like this, he believes that Ming Youchen can't regain power and will always be content with him Under the body!He will occupy Ming Youchen's heart like he seized Tiandu!
No matter, that person is willing or not!As long as the other party doesn't kill his relatives, he has the confidence, patience and infinite means to win everything!
After the morning court the next day, Nangong Rui came to Zixiao Palace to resign. He is a border guard with heavy responsibilities. Even if Hu Yi and Tiandu are repaired at this time, it is impossible for him to stay in the capital for a long time.
"General Nangong has been loyal for generations. Your grandfather and father were fierce generals who sacrificed their lives for the country. Both the late emperor and I appreciate your family's loyalty. In the case of King Qin a few days ago, you should act immediately after receiving my secret order. At a critical moment Distinguishing right from wrong, leading the army to protect him, and letting me know that I have not misjudged the person, really comforts my heart."
Luan Tiance waved to Nangong Rui who was kneeling to leave, and he really praised him a few words.
"It is the duty of the general to share the worries and allegiance of the emperor, and it is not worth mentioning. Your Majesty's praise makes the general shameless."
"General Nangong is loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and he deserves my praise. These days, I have been trying to figure out what good things to reward you, but you are in a hurry to go back as a teacher, so I can't think of it for a while."
Luan Tiance said with a smile, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Nangong Rui's face changing slightly when he heard the words, he seemed to be embarrassed, and immediately spoke again calmly.
"If you have something to say, you might as well speak it out. General Nangong has made such great contributions to me. Whatever you ask, as long as it doesn't harm the people, I will grant it."
"As a minister, the last general should serve our emperor, and he dare not extravagantly expect a heavy reward from His Majesty. There is only one thing that should be reported to His Majesty."
"Is it related to King Xin?"
"Your Majesty is wise, you can guess right. What the general will say next is indeed related to Xiangguo... and King Xin." Nan Gongrui said, flipping up his robe and kneeling on the ground again, "The general is very grateful for the kindness of King Xin. , It was he who single-handedly promoted the general to go to the border, and took on the important task of guarding our border, and glorified the lintel of my Nangong family."
"Do you feel ashamed of betraying Ming Youchen at a critical moment, and want to intercede for him? I remind you at this moment that you are my servant, and you can only obey the emperor of Tiandu. Inappropriate loyalty and compassion."
"The last general dare not dare!" Nangong Rui lowered his head even lower, "To tell you the truth, King Xin once summoned the last general before he took office, saying that it was not his talent to let the last general guard the border. Because only In terms of leading troops to fight, I am afraid that there is no one in the world who is the enemy of the King of Chu."
"It's true what he said."
"Xin Wang bluntly said that he asked his ministers to go to the border just because he was loyal and would not abandon the people and the country for his own selfishness. He repeatedly asked that if His Majesty ordered it in the future, he would not hesitate to go through fire and water for my emperor. , even if His Majesty asks the last general to deal with him as the enemy, the last general must go all out and will not be merciful."
"What did you say?" Luan Tiance was extremely shocked, but his face was only slightly moved.
"At that time, the general didn't know what King Xin was referring to, but when he received His Majesty's secret edict that day, the general understood. King Xin knew that this day would come, but he still gave the general the same order, which shows that he has great respect for Tiandu, It is all out of loyalty and love for His Majesty."
"Really?" Luan Tiance asked in a deep voice, his eyes were complicated and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Now that the king of Xin led the army to smuggle His Majesty's royal officialdom, and his behavior was wrong, I finally begged His Majesty to read his sincerity. The sky can see it. I hope that my lord will be able to see the details, open the grace of heaven, and pardon his serious crimes and give him a lighter sentence. Let him be free." Nangong Rui broke his heart, and finally boldly spoke out what he wanted.
"General Nangong doesn't want rewards before he leaves. Do you just want to ask me for this favor? Hmph, could it be that Ming Youchen didn't tell you to obey my orders? When you received the secret envoy and edict sent by me that day, you didn't Did you listen to your fate?"
"The last general doesn't dare!" Nangong Rui kowtowed a few times when he heard the emperor's bad tone.
"Forget it, the three generations of Zhongliang of your Nangong family are not the ones who follow others and add insult to injury. At this moment, you are still thinking of old feelings and begging for mercy for King Xin, unlike other officials who only want to protect themselves. I believe in the general's loyalty.

At this time, Luan Tiance spoke softly and ordered the kneeling person to stand up.
