The long palace road stretched straight to the distance, several little servants in gray clothes bent down and lowered their heads, carefully cleaning the palace road with brooms.The sound of the wheels of the carriage passing by, on this quiet and long road, carried a sense of chilling horror.

The weather was gloomy and mysterious. The dense fog had not yet dispersed, but the sky was already dark.As far as the eye can see, there is a gloomy hazy color.

Commander Wei and the others separated from Eunuch Wei at the gate of the palace, turned left with more than 20 embarrassing rebels, and went to the school grounds.Eunuch Wei drove towards the Taiyuan Hall on the right in the car.

The carriage drove through the long palace road and stopped at the end of the palace road, at the arched door of the inner and outer walls. The next section of the road is the inner wall of the palace. According to the rules, no one is allowed to ride a horse in the inner wall except for the emperor's pardon. Take advantage of it.

In the first year of Jingping, after Zhu Mingwen first came to the throne, He Zhijing had the right to ride horses in the inner wall of the palace, but He Zhijing always kept the etiquette, and he always walked on the inner wall of the palace, except for one time.

In order to trip He Zhijing back then, Zhao Lian tried to instigate crimes against him everywhere, one of which was that he was loyal and treacherous, arrogant and arrogant.At the beginning of the new emperor's accession to the throne, he rode his horse privately on the inner wall, not paying attention to the emperor.

Eunuch Wei straightened his clothes, just stood up, and was about to get off the carriage, when he saw a small servant running from a distance in the direction of Taiyuan Hall, and shouted loudly as he ran: "Your Majesty said that the auspicious time is important, You don't need to get out of the car, let Eunuch take Master Hou to Taiyuan Palace as soon as possible, so as not to delay the auspicious time."

Eunuch Wei was stunned for a moment, and then he understood Zhu Mingwen's intention, which was specially made for the military officials in North Korea and Chinese: even without military power, He Zhijing should be extremely noble in the eyes of the emperor, and even in the eyes of the world. horse, unique.

The carriage that had just stopped had to start again.

Taiyuan Hall is located in the northwest corner of the imperial palace. It is the place where the royal family has always held state banquets and rewarded meritorious officials.The palace decorated with glazed tiles is dignified and solemn, with carved beams and painted columns, eaves reaching into the clouds, and white marble steps that are endlessly long, showing the dignity and luxury of the royal family.

At this time, the mist had just dissipated, and the sunlight penetrated through the layers of fog and shone on the glazed palace tiles, reflecting dazzling brilliance.The solemn and solemn Taiyuan Palace stands high in the inner wall of the palace, looking from a distance, it looks like the legendary smoky Penglai Fairy Pavilion.

"Eunuch," the little eunuch called out in a low voice.

Eunuch Wei turned around, glanced at the little eunuch and said, "What's the matter?"

The little eunuch followed two steps, leaned close to Eunuch Wei's ear and said, "Eunuch, the Holy One ordered you to go ahead."

Eunuch Wei didn't doubt him, turned around and confessed a few words, followed the young eunuch to take a shortcut, and took a step ahead.

While thinking about the little emperor's intentions, Eunuch Wei followed the little eunuch to turn left and right along the corridor.Just as he was thinking about it, the little eunuch who was walking in front of him suddenly stopped.

Eunuch Wei was annoyed for a while, and he opened his mouth to curse, but saw the little eunuch looking at him apologetically.

"You..." Eunuch Wei opened his mouth, a sudden sharp pain hit the back of his head, and he lost consciousness.

"Please, brothers, spare his life!" The little eunuch hurriedly said when he saw several men in bodyguard uniforms picking up the unconscious Eunuch Wei and about to leave.

The one-eyed man in the lead turned his head to look at the little eunuch, and smiled with white teeth: "Don't worry."

Nine hundred and ninety-nine layers of white marble steps are paved on the square in front of the Hall of Qianqing. As soon as the morning court started, the ministers of civil and military affairs entered the hall one after another in order.

Fu Jin was dressed in a crimson official robe, standing alone in front of the empty square, with his eyes slightly lowered, his expression silent, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Da da da, the sound of horseshoes approaching from far to near, a group of men in armor riding royal horses came from the direction of the palace gate and stopped a few meters in front of Fu Jin.

The leader quickly got off his horse and walked towards Fu Jin.The two exchanged glances quickly, and then walked towards the Qianqing Hall together.

Inside the Qing Dynasty

Several court ministers looked at the empty throne above the Daxiong Palace.

Zhao Lianqing cleared his throat and asked the chief eunuch in charge of the Qianqing Palace: "Where is Your Majesty?"

The eunuch knelt on the ground with a plop, and said in a trembling voice: "Report to my lord, I don't know."

Zhao Lian immediately became angry: "What time is it now? Where did His Majesty go?"

"My lord, why should you be angry?" Prince Lian, who was wearing a prince's uniform, smiled lightly, "Is he a slave who can know His Majesty's whereabouts?"

Zhao Lian narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the King Lian who had not been in court for half a year, and said: "So, King Lian knows where His Majesty is."

Prince Lian smiled softly: "Unfortunately, this king just met His Majesty."

Zhao Lian said, "Where is Your Majesty?"

King Lian put away his smile and said in a leisurely manner, "Your Majesty is now at the ancestral temple."

Zhao Lian was startled, and asked, "What is Your Majesty doing at the ancestral temple?"

"Because he is ashamed of Jiangshan Sheji!" A person in the crowd suddenly raised his voice.

As soon as these words came out, the whole hall seemed to explode, and everyone turned their heads to look at the person who spoke.

"King Ning, what do you mean?" Zhao Lian pointed at King Ning and asked.

King Ning couldn't distinguish between joy and anger on his bloodless face, and said indifferently: "Master Zhao, is this the courtesy you should have to the prince of the court?"

Zhao Lian snorted coldly and said, "As long as His Royal Highness King Ning answers my question, I will naturally abide by the proper etiquette."

A trace of ridicule flashed in King Ning's eyes. He ignored Zhao Lian's questioning voice, and glanced at King Lian who was standing behind Zhao Lian. Under the signal of his eyes, he pushed away the crowd and slowly stepped onto the steps of the treasure hall. .

One step, two steps, three steps.

King Ning stood still, and slowly turned to meet the court ministers with different expressions: "Because the current emperor is ashamed of my Zhu family! Ministers, do you still remember the foundation of the founding of the country?"

The ministers didn't understand the meaning of King Ning's words, so they glanced at each other. A Hanlin Xiuzhuan with a low official position stepped forward and said: "If the official remembers correctly, it should be 'good'. To be kind to the people of the world, to be kind All living things."

King Ning nodded, and asked again: "That's right, then, what is good?" He looked at Zhao Lian whose complexion gradually changed, and said word by word: "This king remembers a common saying among the people, which is called 'Hundreds of goodness and filial piety first.'"

King Ning glanced at the crowd who were nodding their heads one after another, and pointed at Zhao Lian: "Lord Zhao, is this king right?"

Zhao Lian's face turned pale in an instant, his facial features were distorted, his lips trembled, and he stared at King Ning intently, wishing to kill him with his eyes.

King Ning was not afraid of Zhao Lian's silent threat, and continued with the previous words: "If a person can't even treat his own biological father and aunt mother kindly, how can people believe that he can 'be kind to the people of the world'?"
