Reborn as King again

Chapter 279 Follow-up: The Emperor's Road

Spring went to summer, and autumn came again in a blink of an eye. Cheng Lie began to turn over. When Cheng Che was not with him, he liked to crawl around, and no one paid attention to him.

Cheng Che also reached the age to go to Taiyuan Academy. Due to hearing loss, I found a special gentleman from the folks. He specializes in teaching children with hearing loss to read and write.Cheng Che is a very hardworking child. Slowly, he learned lip language and began to be able to communicate with us.

As for Duanmuchen, I know that he has feelings for me. If I love and pursue someone so desperately, the stone will warm me up. He just doesn't know how to face it.Anyway, I can afford it, and I will definitely wait until the day he admits it.

When I was in Zheng State, I was adopted by Ouyang Chu. He is a military general and he likes hunting. I was brought by him since I was a child, and I also think hunting is very interesting.Even if I was later exiled to Yuncheng, I would often go to the back mountain to hunt rabbits or roe deer by myself, and add something to myself.

As soon as the throne was firmly secured, my hands immediately felt itchy. Seeing how beautiful the autumn is today, I planned to go to a hunting ground in the suburbs to hunt something.

I prepared with great interest, and the ministers didn't have any opinions. The emperor has one or two hobbies, and my hobbies should be more acceptable to the ministers than my father's hobbies.

I didn't invite Duanmuchen to go hunting in the hunting ground, because the hunting was just a cover, and I had other more important things to do.

So as soon as the guard of honor in the palace came out, accompanied by officials of the fifth rank and above, the group drove towards the outskirts of the capital in a mighty manner.

Arriving at the hunting ground on the first day, the accompanying inner prison guards were stationed on the spot.The next day I started hunting on horseback with several generals.

The day before I left the palace, I went to meet Duanmuchen, and I swore that I would make a fox for him as a scarf, so I can't break my promise.

I rode around the woods for a while, and I saw a snow-white fox looking for something in the bushes. When it saw a group of people besieging behind it, it turned around and ran away.

Seeing the target, I immediately rode in pursuit, followed by the guards and generals.

While riding a horse, I drew my bow and shot arrows at the snow fox, but the fox was very cunning and was escaped by it again and again.This more and more stimulated my determination to take it down. At this moment, for some reason, the horse suddenly went crazy, shaking its head and bumping around.

The speed of the horse's galloping suddenly increased, making it impossible for the guards and generals behind me to keep up. After a while, they were completely out of sight by me.

I snickered, the one who should come is still here, I always thought that the one who couldn't help but strike first would be my ninth younger brother Li Yun, but I never thought that it would be my eleventh younger brother Li Zhi.Since the hunting ground had been abandoned for a long time, suddenly I, the emperor, was coming to hunt, so someone had to arrange and arrange it in advance, and Li Zhi sent people to mix in.

My horse is frightened, probably due to some hallucinogenic ingredients in the food and grass that he ate this morning.

I sneered at Li Zhi's approach. I used this method to get Ouyang Chu more than ten years ago, and now someone uses this method to deal with me?It's too naive to think.

I had prepared for this by tightening my legs around the horse's belly, lowering myself so as not to be dragged or scratched by a branch, and pulling on the reins to slow the horse down as much as possible.

In this way, the horse kept shuttling through the woods. Gradually, it had a tendency to relax, but at this moment, I saw a few black figures hidden in front of me. To put it bluntly, they were assassins. He was already in ambush here before he came to the hunting ground.

I have assassinated others before, and I knew that the assassins must have other ambushes here, so I took a closer look, and there were two trees not far from where the assassins were hiding. , tied with a hemp rope.It turned out that they had this ghost idea. When the horse passed between the two trees, it would definitely trip over the hemp rope, and I would also fall to the ground. I can't get up. At this time, those men in black can give me a fatal blow.

Their thinking is too simple. Since it is autumn and the ground is full of fallen leaves, I looked at the place where the fallen leaves are thicker, jumped off the horse with my head in my arms, and rolled into the pile of fallen leaves. Damage is minimized.

The assassins were dumbfounded. This was completely different from their plan. There was still a distance between where I landed and their ambush. In desperation, they could only draw their swords and run towards me to attack.

I am far enough from this moment to stand up, and now I draw my sword to meet it.

With one against five, I definitely can't win. I'm neither my second uncle nor Ouyang Chu. If I can delay for a while, it's fine if I don't get fatally injured. Sure enough, I didn't block the assassin's three moves, and I got a big cut on my shoulder The wound was so painful that even the sword fell to the ground and could not be picked up.

The assassins thought that my situation was over, so they stretched out their swords and stabbed at me. I had delayed long enough. The guards who had been thrown off by me before quickly caught up. Before the assassins were within a foot of me when he was shot by a flying arrow.

I covered the wound on my shoulder, and coldly ordered the guards: "Catch me alive!"

After a while, all five assassins were arrested. In order to prevent suicide by biting their tongues or taking poison, they were all gagged by the guards.

"Your Majesty, are you alright?" The guard hurriedly stepped forward to support me.

"I need an imperial doctor." It really hurts. In order to get rid of Li Zhi, I sacrificed a lot. Except for the time when I faced my father, I have never been so embarrassed.

The accompanying imperial doctor rushed over quickly. There was no poison on the sword, it was just a skin trauma, but the wound was a bit deep. The imperial doctor first took emergency measures for me and suggested that I return to the palace to recuperate.

No, before I even returned to the palace, news of my assassination spread throughout the capital, and the assassin was also caught. As long as I tortured to extract a confession, I would be able to find out who was behind the scenes.

In fact, all of this is just a game I created for Li Yun and Li Zhi, to make him think that it is a good time for me to go hunting, and he can kill me and replace him, just like Li Shao and Li Qian, my prince is still young anyway , can't take on the big responsibility.

Li Zhi was the one who took the initiative to attack. He sent people to lurk in the hunting ground and dispatched assassins.

At night, I was lying on the dragon bed in the Qianlong Palace. Although the imperial doctor said that there was no need to do this, I insisted on wrapping my whole body in bandages.

In the middle of the night, the bandages were uncomfortably painful, and the wound was healing and scarred, itchy and painful.

My mind was full of thoughts, why Duanmu didn't come, why didn't Duanmu still come, I even doubted that Xiaoluzi didn't pass the news that I was "seriously injured and dying" to Laiyi Palace.As the night got deeper and deeper, I became more and more disappointed in my heart. Duanmuchen must have been cruel, I was so hurt that he didn't come to see me.

It wasn't until the middle of the night that I couldn't bear it any longer, so I closed my eyes blinking.

I slept lightly, and vaguely heard rustling sounds around me, I opened my eyes in a daze, and saw Duanmuchen sitting beside my bed, his eyes staring straight at me.

Duanmuchen didn't expect that I would wake up, he was startled, stood up and walked away in embarrassment, I quickly grabbed his arm, and then moaned twice: "It hurts..."

Duanmuchen thought it was because of him that my wound opened, he asked anxiously: "Are you okay? I'll call the imperial doctor..."

"It's okay, it's just a small injury." As long as you don't leave.

Duanmuchen looked at me for a while, obviously he didn't believe me, who made me wrap a bunch of bandages.

I intentionally looked pitiful and said, "I'm afraid you feel that there are too many people in Qianlong Palace and you don't want to come, so you transferred a lot of internal prisons tonight, and then waited and waited, thinking that you won't come... "

"Nonsense!" Duanmuchen heard the words, frowned in a rather reproachful tone, "You've already been assassinated, it's fine if you don't send more troops to protect, how can you transfer people away?!"

"Uh..." My heart warmed up, "Duanmu, you care about me, right?"

Regardless of Duanmuchen's willingness or not, I posted it myself, hugging him and rubbing against him.Duanmuchen lowered his eyes, showing no intention of resisting, wondering if he was afraid that my wound would open.Anyway, I have the right to think that he accepts me, and it is quite effective to use a bit of pain to come up with a bitter trick. This is called killing two birds with one stone. It can not only set Li Zhi off, but also force Duanmuchen to express his thoughts to me.

I lay down on my side with my arms around Duanmuchen. In fact, I really wanted to suppress him to do something, but I was afraid that he would find out that I was not seriously injured, and the gain would outweigh the loss, so I could only crawl into his arms. Drilling, as tight as it can be, the appearance of injury and fragility is undoubtedly revealed, and occasionally it is accompanied by a small moan of pain.

Duanmuchen really thought that the pain from my wound was unbearable, so he let me hug him tightly, tried to comfort me and said: "It doesn't hurt anymore, it doesn't hurt anymore..." It was like coaxing a child.

After a while, I closed my eyes. Duanmuchen thought I was asleep, so he tucked me in the quilt. Because I didn't let go, he couldn't get up at all, or he didn't want to get up and leave, he was in a trance Yes, I heard Duanmuchen talking to himself, "I'm really worried about you, but luckily you're fine..."

Hearing his words, I got up in a jiffy, without any sleepiness, and pressed on Duanmuchen, I smiled.

Duanmuchen was stunned: "You..."

"I just want to kiss you." No matter how he reacts, kiss him first before talking.

In the early morning of the second day, the inner eunuchs gently pushed open the door of the dormitory, Duanmuchen was still asleep, I didn't want to disturb him, so I tried to get up as gently as possible.

After getting dressed and washing up, he turned around and glanced at Duanmuchen in his sleep, then opened the door and left.

Little Lvzi helped me to sit on the imperial chariot and drove towards the Golden Luan Hall.

Little Lvzi followed outside the imperial chariot and reported to me through the car window: "Your Majesty, this slave has just received a piece of news from the Ministry of Punishment."

"Yeah." I nodded, motioning for Little Lvzi to speak.

"It turns out that the assassination at the hunting ground is not only related to His Royal Highness Zhiwang, but also related to His Royal Highness Yun."

"Li Yun?" I raised my eyebrows, thinking that Li Zhi was the only one doing it, "What's going on?"

"Returning to the emperor, it turns out that the horse you were riding that day was given Mihun powder, and the herbs in the formula of Mihun powder were all products of His Royal Highness Yun's domain, and His Royal Highness Zhi Wang has also confessed."

It seems that my luck is really good, no matter whether Li Yun gave Li Zhi the Mihun San or not, I will let him be convicted of this crime.They conspired to rebel, and it was only natural for me to cut down the feudal clan.Li Yun, the grasshopper after autumn, won't be jumping around for long.

The imperial chariot stopped at the south gate, and with the support of Xiaoluzi, I got out of the chariot, looking at the resplendent Golden Temple and the rising sun in front of me, my journey as an emperor has just begun.
