The Regent makes me unstoppable [Transmigration Book]

Gu Min saw through Shen Ying's worry, walked to Shen Ying's side, bent over and put his arms around his shoulders, "I promise the emperor that I will be careful in my actions in the future, and I will never let anything happen to me."

Shen Ying raised her hand to touch Gu Min's side face, and said "um" in a low voice, but the wrinkles between her brows still remained.

"I want to tell the emperor something happy." Gu Min raised his chin and rubbed it against Shen Ying's palm, deliberately tickling him with the stubble on his chin to make him happy. Didn’t you see, Your Majesty, the Marquis of Gu’an’s house is really lively. Almost all the dignitaries in the capital went to congratulate her. Lin Che’s mouth never came down from the beginning to the end, smiling like a fool. There's a lot of wine, I'm afraid someone will carry it into the bridal chamber tonight."

Shen Ying's mouth turned up involuntarily, "It's a pity that I can't go in person, otherwise Lin Che will definitely not be able to escape my three glasses of wine."

Gu Min smiled lightly and said, "I haven't told the emperor about it. In fact, I also have a younger sister who is three years younger than me. If the younger sister hadn't died, she would be at the age of the eldest princess of Changping. Today, I send the eldest princess to marry. The feeling of sending one's own sister to marry is a regret."

Shen Ying turned around, looked at Gu Min and said jokingly, "I asked you to give Changping a wedding. Apart from reminding you of your sister, don't you envy him as a groom when you see someone getting married?"

"What's the use of being envious?" Gu Min let go of Shen Ying, straightened her waist and spread her hands, pretending to be melancholy and said, "Could it be possible that the emperor can still wear a wedding dress and sit in a sedan chair for his ministers to marry?"

"Good idea!" Shen Ying casually grabbed a tribute orange from the fruit plate on the table, threw it at Gu Min, and scolded with a smile, "Even if I want to marry, I will marry you! I am also the king of a country after all, if I marry someone , wouldn’t that mean you have made the country a dowry, you are quite ambitious.”

Gu Min took the orange and said plausibly, "I'm also going to offer a betrothal gift."

Shen Ying sneered and said: "I'm not afraid that Feng Da will flash his tongue, what kind of betrothal gift do you offer, can it be worth as much as my mountains and rivers?"

Gu Min took a step back, lifted the hem of his clothes, and bowed deeply to Shen Ying, pretending to be like a stage performer: "Xiaosheng is not talented, he has nothing, only admiration for the young master, Xiaosheng originally Using myself as a betrothal, I will do my best to help the young master create a peaceful and prosperous world, even though he died nine times, he still has no regrets, can the young master accept Xiaosheng's dowry?"

Shen Ying was teased by Gu Min, but she still waved her hand and refused, "I understand, are you trying to be a white wolf with empty hands? No, no, I won't be fooled by you. It's a matter of family status. It must be my marriage." You marry!"

Gu Min immediately agreed, "The minister is married!" After speaking, he was afraid of Shen Ying's repentance, and added, "You are not joking, the emperor said it himself, you can't go back on it!"

Shen Ying was dumbfounded, slapped the table and feigned anger and said, "Well, Gu Junshu, how dare you wait for me here? You are so insidious!"

Gu Min didn't feel ashamed at all, and said with a calm expression: "In short, the emperor has already agreed, and I will wait for the emperor to bring a big sedan chair to marry me."

"Do you still know how to write the word 'shame'?" Shen Ying didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she stood up and stretched out her finger to poke Gu Min's chest fiercely twice, "Then you should cherish your life and wait, after all, as long as you live long , there will be everything!"

—

Once the Lantern Festival is over, the year will be over.

Unexpectedly, after a month of suspension, Shen Ying received bad news on the first day of the court.

Old Yong Wang died.

He was poisoned to death in a confined place.

Jin Yiwei quickly caught the person who poisoned the old King Yong. He was a servant who was usually responsible for delivering food to the old King Yong. poison, and then bit his tongue and committed suicide.

Once the poisoner died, Gu Min became the person most suspected of poisoning the old King Yong. To prove his innocence, he naturally had to accept the investigation of the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple, and all the officials couldn't help guessing why Gu Min wanted to kill him with poison. Old King Yong, did he himself have a grudge against Old King Yong, or did he follow the emperor's order to kill Old King Yong?

For a while, the court was full of doubts, people were panicked, and rumors spread everywhere.

After Gu Min was framed and assassinated one after another, Shen Ying had expected that the mastermind behind the scenes would not let it go if he didn't put Gu Min to death, so when he heard about the death of Old King Yong, his heart didn't feel too much ups and downs.

While ordering the Criminal Department to thoroughly investigate the case of the old King Yong, he secretly summoned Ling Qingheng into the palace.

The two had a secret meeting in the palace where Ling Qingheng lived before. When they revisited the old place, they inevitably remembered many things from the past. A lot of effort, for a person who helped her, although Shen Ying didn't like Ling Qingheng much, she couldn't hate him either.

Besides, Shen Ying could also understand how Ling Qingheng, a criminal ordered by the imperial court who was burdened with blood and deep vengeance, would easily open his heart to someone who was the son of an enemy who killed his entire family.

After Ling Qingheng saluted Shen Ying, he laughed at himself: "Cao Min never thought that he would be summoned by the emperor one day, and thought that he had offended the emperor."

"I can't say I hate you, but I can't say I like you either. The reason I came to you is because an enemy's enemy is a friend." Shen Ying stood under a plum tree in the yard with her hands behind her back, her eyes lowered. Chui, with an air of pride like a plum blossom, "I don't believe in your loyalty to me, but I believe in your determination to overturn the case for your family, so are you still willing to help me?"

Ling Qingheng asked without answering: "I wonder what the emperor wants Caomin to do for you?"

Shen Ying raised her eyes and looked at Ling Qingheng with deep eyes: "You should know that the recent situation in the court is not good for Junshu. He is standing on the cusp of the storm, with countless pairs of eyes staring at him in the dark, and countless knives pointing at his back. He, once his life experience is exposed, even if he is a traitor and traitor, even I can't keep him."

Ling Qingheng understood clearly, "So the emperor wants Linyanghou to leave the capital? But is he willing?"

Shen Ying pulled her lips, looked up at the plum blossom on the highest point of the plum tree, which was trembling in the cold wind, exhausted her last strength and insisted on refusing to leave the branch, and said sadly: "Of course he doesn't want to, So I have no intention of telling him my decision."

Ling Qingheng lowered his head, the light in his eyes changed a few times, "Caomin understands, what does the emperor want Caomin to do?"

"The forces that framed Junshu are not small. I am worried that the entire imperial court, including Jinyiwei and Dongchang, may be infiltrated by them. Special means should be used in special times. I plan to establish a new government office to do things for me. "Shen Ying looked at Ling Qingheng, "I know you know a lot of people from the Jianghu, so I want you to be the head of this yamen, and recruit capable people from the Jianghu to work for me, are you willing?"

Every yamen, every department, and even every official's mansion in the capital may have a spy behind the scenes, but those people would never have thought that the emperor would actually use the power of the rivers and lakes to do things for him. After all, those high-ranking officials The most important thing is status, who would bother to make friends with people of various religions and nine streams.

Ling Qingheng thought about it for a while, and finally made up his mind, bowing to Shen Ying: "Cao Min leads the decree!"

"Okay! Then I will leave this matter to you!" Shen Ying smiled happily, "I plan to name this yamen 'Six Doors', and you will be the leader of the Six Doors from now on. With real skills, you can tell right from wrong, right from wrong, everything. Anyone with a good record and willing to be loyal to me, regardless of his background, can enter your six doors!"

—

Shen Ying hadn't been to Shou'an Palace for a long time, the current Shou'an Palace was desolate and lonely, with few houses, it was very different from the grandeur he remembered before.

Walking into the Shou'an Palace, a strong sandalwood fragrance hits the face, and the room is also filled with smoke, which makes people almost blinded by the smoke. I don't know how much incense has been lit.

Shen Ying raised her hand in front of her and waved to disperse the smoke in front of her eyes, and then she saw clearly the Empress Dowager Liu who was kneeling in the small Buddhist hall next to her, holding Buddhist beads in her hand, and chanting sutras.

Shuoyu was afraid that Shen Ying would be uncomfortable from the smoke, so he hurriedly asked people to open the windows in the hall for ventilation. The cold wind from outside rushed in, diluting the pungent fragrance a bit, but also brought the chill into the room. inside.

Shen Ying walked outside the small Buddhist hall and bowed to Empress Dowager Liu, "Empress Dowager, I have come to greet you."

Empress Dowager Liu didn't seem to hear it, she still closed her eyes, muttering to herself, Shen Ying didn't say anything more, she waved her hand to let the idlers retreat outside, then sat down on the chair next to her and looked at Empress Dowager Liu chanting scriptures.

It was a bit cold in the room, Shen Ying took the stove from Shuoyu and hugged it to her chest, looking at the situation in the Shou'an Palace boredly, and said leisurely: "Queen Mother, I am a little confused, and I am here to ask you for advice. I don't know if the queen mother can explain my confusion for me?"

After a long time, there was a sneer from the Buddhist hall, and the Empress Dowager Liu sneered: "The emperor is in power now, what can't be solved, why do you need to listen to the old woman of Ai's family gossip?"

Shen Ying said indifferently: "There are many things in the world that cannot be solved by power. It is said that reading Buddhist scriptures can brighten people's hearts. The queen mother must have learned a lot of truths after practicing for so long. I am here to ask for advice. The queen mother will not hesitate to teach you Bar?"

Empress Dowager Liu remained silent, only hearing the sound of Buddhist beads rolling in the Buddhist hall, which was chaotic.

Shen Ying didn't care whether Empress Dowager Liu would give a response or not, and continued on her own: "Empress Dowager, did you hear that Old King Yong is dead? And he was poisoned to death. Empress Dowager, who do you think will be the murderer?"

Empress Dowager Liu suddenly laughed strangely, "The Ai family doesn't know who did the murder, but the Ai family knows that if the real culprit can't be caught, then you, the emperor, are most suspected of killing the old King Yong."

Shen Ying pursed her lips and sneered silently, "The Queen Mother really sees the problem clearly. After hearing what the Queen Mother said, I suddenly understood. I understand what the real culprit planned. He poisoned the old King Yong and blamed it on the Marquis of Linyang. Just blaming me, it will make people think that I am going to kill the old King Yong, and make the feudal lords think that I am going to do something to them, everyone is in danger, right?"

Empress Dowager Liu stopped talking again, but her silence gave Shen Ying an answer.

Shen Ying rubbed the hand stove in her arms, leaned back slowly on the back of the chair, and looked at the opposite window, "Let me guess what the real murderer will do next. They will inevitably feel cold lips and teeth, and worry that they will become the next old Yong Wang, so they will definitely go up to let me find out the truth. And the confession of the poisoner before his death was bought by the Marquis of Linyang, so naturally he must focus on the inspection , this investigation will follow the clues to find out Lin Yanghou's life experience..."

When Shen Ying said this, the Empress Dowager Liu in the Small Buddha Hall swayed imperceptibly, obviously she was listening to Shen Ying's words seriously.

Shen Ying took a breath and continued: "In this way, in order to cover up their crimes of murdering Prince Zhaohuai, the feudal lords will definitely ask me to kill Linyanghou. If we are enemies, they might rebel in the name of 'the emperor of the Qing Dynasty' and force me to abdicate to the virtuous, Empress Dowager, you think I think so, right?"

Empress Dowager Liu moved her body, stood up from the futon with her hands propped up, straightened her clothes, stood up straight and looked at Shen Ying, "The Ai family also has a question for the Pope."

Shen Ying turned her head and nodded with a smile, "Please tell me, Queen Mother."

Empress Dowager Liu asked mockingly: "How does the emperor feel about standing at the pinnacle of power?" Before Shen Ying could answer, Empress Dowager Liu opened the bead curtain and walked out of the small Buddhist hall, looking at Shen Ying coldly, "You have been thinking hard, After pretending to be crazy and fooling Aijia for so many years, you finally got your wish and now you are in power. Did you realize that the feeling of standing at the top of power is not as good as you imagined? Do you think that you can get rid of Du Qianren with your little cleverness and make Aijia empty? You can do whatever you want, and I am the only one? Do you think this seat is so easy to sit in? Your Majesty, sitting on the dragon chair is not a skill, but sitting firmly is the skill!"

"The empress dowager speaks true knowledge, and I have been taught." Faced with the empress dowager Liu's ridicule, Shen Ying smiled instead of anger, "However, I don't know the truth of being too cold at a high place. Although I am sitting on the dragon chair today, There are a pack of wolves waiting for me. If I don’t have meat to feed these wolves, the next moment, these hungry wolves will pounce on me and tear me apart. But I don’t understand, those vassal kings are far away in the fief, how would they know? The real identity of Marquis Linyang? Who revealed the news to them? Can the queen mother answer this question for me?"

Empress Dowager Liu's eyes flickered for a moment, she turned her head to look aside, and remained silent.

"The Empress Dowager doesn't want to say it? It's okay." Shen Ying put down the stove and clapped her hands twice. Shuoyu got the instruction and shouted, "Bring people in!"

Immediately, two guards dragged a maid covered in blood into the room. The maid fell to the ground, and she stretched out her hand to Empress Dowager Liu for help, "Help...help...help slave!"

Empress Dowager Liu recognized the maid's face, her expression changed slightly, and she took a small step back.

"I really didn't expect that there is King Huai's eyeliner in the palace, helping the Empress Dowager and King Huai deliver the news under my nose." Shen Ying snorted coldly, "This is really day and night defense, and it's hard to guard against family thieves."

Empress Dowager Liu forced herself to be calm and said: "The Ai family doesn't understand what the emperor is talking about. Could it be that just based on the one-sided words of a lowly servant girl, they want to point out that the Ai family has colluded with Duke Huai?"

"I expected that the queen mother would not admit what I did, but it doesn't matter whether the queen mother admits it or not." Shen Ying said in a deep voice, "Come on, drag this maid to the court staff outside the Shou'an Palace, and let the whole All the maids and eunuchs in the harem came to watch, so that they would know that whoever dares to help Shouan Palace and the outside world to deliver news, this is the end!"

The guards dragged the palace lady out. Listening to the palace maid's heart-piercing cry for help, Empress Dowager Liu turned pale, but she was annoyed that Shen Ying dared to be so arrogant in front of her. She glared at Shen Ying viciously, and said with a sneer: "Your Majesty doesn't need to kill a chicken for the monkeys to see. Even if you seal the Shouan Palace, it won't help. Duke Huai and the others already know who Gu Min is. If the Emperor insists on protecting him, the feudal lords will definitely rebel! Your Majesty! Is it Gu Shaojun who wants to protect you, or Jiangshan?"

Shen Ying suddenly stood up, expressionless, and walked towards Empress Dowager Liu without saying a word, Empress Dowager Liu was forced to step back several steps, and asked in a panicked and angry voice: "You, what do you want to do?! "

"The Empress Dowager has read so many Buddhist scriptures, why can't she learn to follow nature and be pure-hearted and ascetic?" Shen Ying looked down at Empress Dowager Liu with a calm expression on her face, and said slowly, "You have no husband and no children. What good will it do you to let go? Could it be that if I abdicate and those vassal kings come to power, your situation will be better than now? Queen Mother, you are old, and you should accept your fate."

Empress Dowager Liu raised her chin, sneered and said: "Do you want Aijia to accept his fate, so that you, a sinister and despicable villain, can ride on Aijia's head and do his best? The most regrettable thing in Aijia's life is to be blind To establish you as the emperor, this country belongs to my son, and a person like you who has no talent or virtue is not worthy of sitting!"

"Whether I deserve to sit or not has to be judged by future generations. The queen mother alone does not count. But regardless of what will be written in the history books, the first emperor died in less than a year. I am afraid that future generations will not comment on him." Only the word 'short-lived' remains."

Shen Yingbing stabbed the knife on the deepest wound in Empress Dowager Liu's heart without bloodshed. In the eyes of Empress Dowager Liu who was so red that she was about to bleed and looked like she wanted to eat people, she smiled slightly, and said, "Didn't the Empress Dowager just ask me if I wanted to protect you?" Is Gu Shaojun still protecting the country? I want both of these, and the queen mother will spend her days in this Shouan Palace, and let's see how I will be famous in history!"

Shen Ying turned around and left with her hands behind her back. Empress Dowager Liu gritted her teeth and stared at Shen Ying's back. It was not until the door of Shou'an Palace slammed shut that she fell down and sat on the ground, crying without any scruples.

—

Time flies, and the first month is almost out, and the weather has not shown any signs of getting warmer, and there was even a light snowfall not long ago.

Ling Qingheng recruited a large number of martial arts masters from the rivers and lakes to form the Six Doors. There are spies, catchers, and killers in the door. Due to their habits in the arena, they are flexible and changeable in handling things, and their contacts are scattered in both black and white. When doing things, their efficiency is unmatched by Jinyiwei and Dongchang.

Not long ago, the eyeliner planted in the feudal prince's mansion sent back news that the feudal princes surnamed Huai, Xin, and Chu had been in close contact recently, and the three subordinate guards were also practicing day and night, ready to move.

Shen Ying has no children, the foundation of the country has not yet been established, and he has just taken over the government, his foundation is not stable, and the powerful vassal king does not take him seriously. By his side, instead of waiting until Shen Ying's wings are full and liquidating them, it's better for them to act first and rebel under the name of "Qing Jun's side" justifiably.

They are all sons and grandsons of dragons, who can't sit on this dragon chair?

Shen Ying naturally also understood that at this time, the more ambitious vassals should not be able to catch them and give them an excuse to stir up trouble.

So Gu Min, he couldn't stay.

Ling Qingheng was the first and only person who knew about Shen Ying's plan.

The day before the action, Ling Qingheng went to the palace to have an audience. After discussing the matter, he asked Shen Ying: "Does the Emperor want to see Marquis Linyang again? After tomorrow, I don't know when we will see each other again."

Shen Ying's heart was throbbing, but her face was calm, she said in a low voice; "He has always been as careful as a hair, I'm afraid that when we meet, he will see the clues and spoil the plan, so let's just let it go."

Ling Qingheng was silent for a moment, and said: "The Marquis of Linyang will definitely understand the emperor's painstaking efforts."

"I know." Shen Ying walked out of the palace gate and looked up at the sky outside the imperial city, "If possible, I really want to go far away with him, but we all have responsibilities on our shoulders, and we can't just live for ourselves alone. .You help me give him a word."

Ling Qingheng walked behind Shen Ying, "Please speak, Your Majesty."

The sunset glow in the sky covered Shen Ying's eyes, with fragments of brilliant light floating, a slightly sentimental smile appeared on his lips, and he said slowly: "The mountains and rivers meet each other, I hope you will cherish it. The farewell is not over, and there will always be goodbye." hour."

—

On the second day, Shen Ying ordered Jin Yiwei to go to Linyanghou's mansion to arrest Gu Min, who had been contemplating behind closed doors for almost a month and a half. The reason for the arrest was that it had been found out that Linyanghou was the murderer who poisoned the old King Yong.

Jin Yiwei broke into the Marquis' mansion, and the eunuch who delivered the decree read out the emperor's decree in front of Gu Min. Before Gu Min finished reading the imperial decree, he stood up and said coldly: "I don't believe this is the decree of the emperor. Hou is going to the palace to meet the emperor now."

The eunuch delivering the decree tremblingly said: "Master Gu, this is indeed the emperor's personal order..."

"Nonsense!" Gu Min didn't believe that Shen Ying would decree to arrest him at all, turned around and pointed his sword at Jin Yiwei from his entourage, and said with a sneer, "You guys dare to falsely preach the decree! Who sent you here?"

One of Gu Min's cronies in Jinyiwei used to come forward and clasped his fists and said, "My lord, I would like to guarantee you with the head of the item. This is the imperial decree from the emperor. Please calm down and go back with us first, don't embarrass your subordinates." .”

Gu Min still didn't want to believe that Shen Ying would treat him like this, he didn't believe a single word from other people's mouths, he just wanted to hear Shen Ying's situation tell him what was going on.

At this moment, Shuo Yu hurried over and saw Gu Min holding a sword in his hand against Jin Yiwei, and immediately sternly stopped: "Marquis of Linyang, put down your weapon quickly! Do you want to resist the order?!"

The moment Gu Min saw Shuoyu, his heart was ashamed, and he slowly lowered the sword in his hand, staring at Shuoyu with black eyes like a pool of stagnant water, and asked, "Is it really the emperor's order?"

Shen Ying was worried that Gu Min's impulsive resistance and disobedience would conflict with Jin Yiwei, so she sent Shuo Yu out of the palace to persuade Gu Min.

Shuo Yu kept Shen Ying's explanation in mind, looked back at Gu Min without evasion, and said word by word: "Thousands, true, ten thousand, true."
