Reincarnation of the powerful minister

Because of the promise of "I will give you an explanation in ten days", Su Yan's ears can be regarded as quite clean. In order to accompany Shen Qi through the onset of drug addiction, he even applied to the imperial court for a ten-day rest, and stayed by the court for almost a moment. By Shen Qi's side.

Zhu Helin didn't care to be jealous for the time being, because the box of evidence submitted by Shen Qi needed to be carefully reviewed. King Ning has been a chess player for many years, and his foundation is quite deep. He has many forces and industries in the capital and various states, and they also need to be eradicated one by one. with censorship.

The complete exposure of King Ning's rebellion shocked the civil and military officials of the whole court, especially the cabinet and six chief officials. At first they thought the emperor was killed, so they had no choice but to recommend King Ning as the acting heir. Feel guilty and guilty, for fear that the emperor will liquidate them in the name of "second minister".

When everyone summed it up, they felt that it was Mr. Su Ge who brought the sad news of Sheng Jia's disappearance and insisted on recalling King Yu. This move was more than wise, it was a plan with the emperor in advance to fish with the hook.Now that the big fish King Ning has been caught, it's a pity that those who don't know it have made a foil and a joke.

Annoyed, apprehensive and helpless, she still had to ask Mr. Su Ge to find out the holy will.And those who had a bad relationship with him, such as Xie and Jiang, now also know that the dominance of Su's family is firmly established, and they have to work hard to repair their relationship with him for the sake of official career.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Su Ge asked for leave and thanked guests behind closed doors.After all the officials made up their minds, they diverted to Tong to visit Chief Assistant Yang Ting, but they didn't see anyone.

Yang Shoufu didn't know whether he was made old-fashioned by Su Ge, who claimed to be a powerful minister, or whether he couldn't hold on after unloading the burden on his heart, and fell ill like a mountain, and he didn't see anyone's face.According to gossip, the emperor went to visit his mansion in a micro-clothes, but he also politely declined on the grounds that he was "fearful of contaminating the holy body with sickness".

Unable to understand the inside story, the officials are inevitably a little nervous.I don't know who spread the rumors, saying that Shen Qi didn't really defect back then, but acted as an intermediary according to the secret decree of today's superiors. Now that he has retired, he will not return to the court nor show up in the capital. Under the banner of "arresting", they plundered Shen's residence, annexed his family wealth and property, and punished his confidants and political enemies.Now many people are in panic all day long, just want to spit out what they swallowed to save their lives, and worry that the behavior of "there is no silver 300 taels" will expose themselves.

Finally, two days later, an exciting piece of good news came - King Yu's Jingbei Army defeated King Ning's rebel army and captured King Ning alive and escorted him to Beijing.With the culprit in sight, the officials breathed a sigh of relief, each preparing to concoct verbal and written memorials to show their firm support for the Zhengshuo imperial power.

Emperor Zhu Helin greeted the triumphant King Yu at the gate of the city, but asked the [-] Jingbei Army to camp near Wuliyi on the outskirts of Beijing, and only allowed King Yu to enter the city with a few hundred personal guards.

King Yu was also generous, knowing that his military power was always an invisible threat to the court, so he did not force the army to enter the city.At the same time, he also realized that Beimo Bianchen was about to die, and if he wanted to keep the Jingbei Army establishment, he had to let the emperor's nephew, who was gradually no longer a melon egg, let go of his wariness.

Under the moonlight that night, King Ning Zhu Tanluo was defeated in battle and asked King Yu to behead him on the spot, so that the sword would be stained with the blood of his compatriots.In the end, King Yu put down the long lance, and said: "You violated the national law, and you should be judged by the law instead of being lynched. Besides, you forced me to kill you with your own hands. Isn't it a hidden scheming? I am the lance of Zhujin City, Only drink the enemy's blood in the battle, and don't get karma in the quarrel."

King Ning chuckled: "The most ruthless emperor's family, you are soft-hearted to your compatriots, and you will die at the hands of your compatriots one day."

"You are cruel to your compatriots, don't you still want to die?" King Yu retorted, "You are not qualified to pollute my spear."

He stunned King Ning with a stick, tied him up and gagged him, and ordered the whole army to rush back to Beijing so that he could throw this annoying brother to his good nephew Zhu Helin.

Zhu Helin accepted this spoil of loyalty.But he knew in his heart that General Jingbei's object of allegiance was not himself, the new emperor, or his father, but Da Ming Jiangshan Sheji.As long as the country is still there, King Yu's loyalty can be relied on and paid for.This is not the result he is most satisfied with, but it is the bottom line for both parties to be at peace with each other after taking a step back.

At some point in the future, if King Yu wants to seek a future for his heirs, or for other reasons, this loyalty will change, maybe it will be the time when their uncles and nephews will meet each other.But right now, not yet, not yet.Thinking this way, Zhu Helin made up his mind to issue an imperial edict in three days' time to commend King Yu and reward the entire Jingbei Army.

Before the trial and conviction, King Ning was sent to the Imperial Prison for strict supervision.

And on this night, Shen Qi's drug addiction broke out for the second time, and the intensity was even stronger than the first time.Even though he knew that quitting had to go through this process of getting stronger and then weaker, Su Yan was still worried, for fear that Shen Qi wouldn't be able to endure it - even if his mind was extremely tenacious, his body might not be as strong as iron, and there were still old scars on his back. Penalty!

Jing Hongzhui was worried that Master Su would use herself to feed eagles again, so she insisted on staying at the scene to help.

Al Tan's herbal medicine was ready, but he said that he had never tested it, so he couldn't guarantee the efficacy, anyway, at least it wouldn't make the pain worse, it didn't matter whether Shen Qi wanted it or not.

Shen Qi stared at the bowl of rotten and smelly ointment for a long time, then said expressionlessly: "It's poisonous, take it away."

Altan snorted unhappily: "You can't get the medicine of the great witch even if you kowtow."

Su Yan also felt that the ointment was very suspicious. Compared with the medicine Altan prepared when his lungs were injured, from the smell to the color, it was completely different. He couldn't help but suspect that Altan was taking the opportunity to deal with Shen Qi .

Altan said seriously: "It doesn't matter if he eats or not, but during the onset of his addiction, if he can't help but say 'Give me the black pill', I will kill him without hesitation."

Seeing his serious face, Su Yan seemed to be doing what he said, and quickly pulled Altan out of the house, and asked in a low voice: "Holy Khan, you are just scaring him, you are not serious, right?"

"It's true." Al Tan looked down at Su Yan, without a trace of a smile on his face, "As long as Shen Qi begs, he will completely lose this battle, and he will never be able to get rid of his addiction. Things that are neither human nor ghost will hurt you, so it is better to cut them off as soon as possible."

Su Yan grabbed Al Tan's leather robe, with a sense of resistance and pleading: "I believe that Shen Qi will successfully quit, but... when a person is in extreme pain, even nonsense can't be taken seriously, you Don't touch him!"

A look of pain flashed across his eyes, and Altan shook his head slowly.His face was as cold as a chiseled frost stone in the north, he walked down the steps and stopped under the tall and luxuriant garden tree.

Su Yan was worried, followed up and called out: "Holy Khan...Altan, do you have something on your mind? Or did I mean something to offend you just now?"

"...It's none of your business, nor Shen Qi's business." Al Tan took a deep breath, sat on the stone chair under the tree, pulled out the scimitar on his waist, and carefully looked at the black and white intertwined on the blade. texture.There was no bloodstain on the blade, but the bloodstain had been stained in his heart, and it would be difficult to wipe it off for the rest of his life.

Su Yan sat down with him: "That's about yourself? Altan, if you have any troubles, you can tell me. I'm not good at force, but I still have some ability to make plans."

Altan fell silent.

Su Yan smiled awkwardly: "I forgot, I was in a state of amnesia when we had a deep talk before, maybe you are more familiar with me at that time—oh!"

The reason for the sudden stop was that Altan suddenly stretched out his arms, pulled him into his arms and hugged him tightly. His nose hit the golden emerald necklace hanging on the other's chest again, and he cried out in pain.

"Unig! How can you say such a thing? Ever since you returned to Ming Country and recovered your memory, you can't help but worry that the person you feel alienated from is me!"

Su Yan was strangled by two strong arms, but almost his whole body was wrapped in a broad chest, which made him feel the peace and comfort he hadn't seen for a long time. "Relax, relax!" Through the leather robe, he grabbed the opponent's chest muscles threateningly, his five fingers couldn't hold it, and it bulged out from between his fingers.

Altan let him grasp and rub the top of his head back and forth with his jaw: "At that time, not only did you suffer from a brain injury and lost your memory, but I also blurred the past due to the effect of the antidote. When I remembered everything, not only did I become a stranger , and even regained the throbbing I felt when I first saw you many years ago. Aren't you just like me? Unig, you came to bite me back even though you were offended."

Such a big man was wronged.Su Yan couldn't help but pat him on the back instead: "I'm the one who got offended. It's okay, you can say what you want, and don't say it if you don't want to."

Altan hugged Su Yan like he was hugging a fire on a winter night, and the heat penetrated into his body, allowing him to use the light of the fire to illuminate the shadow deep in his heart.

That was the figure of his father Khan Hu Kuoli.It's not the high spirits when leading the clansmen to fight, but the hunchbacked, shriveled, soul-emptied figure.His father Khan was swallowed by great pain, wailing, knelt down, begging bitterly—"Give me the black pill, please, I can do whatever you want!"

"My father Khan... was killed by me."

The voice in the ears was low, and Su Yan's eyes widened—wasn't Hu Kuoli killed by the Tatar Taishi's youngest son, Wuhalang, who triggered Al Frank's vengeful army to surprise the Tatar royal court?

"It was I who pierced the heart of Father Khan with my own machete. Then I cut off Uharang's head and announced to the army: This is my father-killing enemy. Another stroke has been added between the royal court of Tatar and us Oala Blood debt."

"Why, you have no reason to do this at all..." Su Yan thought of something, and grabbed Altan's robe with his fingers, "Hu Kuoli Khan was poisoned by Heiduo, and was completely controlled by drug addiction? So that year, the alliance between Oara and Tatar in the city of Hasta was simply a conspiracy to ruin the fate of the country?"

Altan nodded sadly: "Father Khan wants to sign a treaty of humiliating power and humiliating the country. I know this is not his intention, but he has no power to turn back. When he had the last drug addiction attack, he was no longer human. Please let me give him a treat."

Therefore, Altan was forced to kill his father with his own hands... that was his biological father who glowed when he mentioned it!How painful was Altan at that time when he made such a difficult choice?

Su Yan seemed to feel the pain, and gasped intermittently.

"Although Father Khan said to me before he died... he said, 'Well done, my son, the glory of Oala cannot be tarnished...The murderer will inherit the bravery of the dead, and you will become the true king of this grassland.' But I know that what I have obtained is not only the courage of my father's generation, but also the sins that cannot be excused by any old customs."

"Altan..." Su Yan sighed.

Altan hugged his shoulders, put his chin on the top of his head, closed his eyes and looked up at the Changshengtian in his heart, as if he wanted to see the faint light of his father Khan's heroic spirit from the clouds. "Unig, do you know that this matter has been hidden in my heart for so long, why it just couldn't be suppressed today, and it surged out?"

Su Yan had a vague feeling, but he didn't want to say it.

Al Tan continued: "Because Shen Qi survived.

"With the body of an ordinary person, without the years of practice and medical assistance of the shaman and old witch, he still insisted on his true self.

"He can endure it, which shows that drug addiction is not so invincible, and it also means that if I hadn't made such a painful decision, my father... can still live! He can return to his original appearance!

"Unig, I... am a kinslayer."

Su Yan finally understood why Al Tan said that if Shen Qi asked for medicine, he would definitely kill him.Could it be that Al Tan was secretly hoping that Shen Qi would also collapse like his father Khan, and this proves that what he did back then had no choice?

But Shen Qi survived from hell without begging, this dealt a huge blow to Al Tan, and made him doubt and regret the self who had no choice but to kill his father back then.

"Altan..." Su Yan didn't know how to comfort him for a while, his mind was full of words that kept tumbling.He murmured and called Altan a few more times, and finally said, "People are different."

"You think my father Khan is weak? He has fought in the north and south for so many years, suffered various injuries, and encountered desperate situations, but he never bent his spine! He is not a coward!"

"I don't think Hu Kuoli Khan is weak, on the contrary, I think he must be a warrior, fighting drug addiction to the last moment. But Al Tan, Shen Qi is different, he is a lifeless person, yes If others are ruthless, you are even more ruthless to yourself. The emperor once said that he found the joy of life from death.

"However, his pleasure is not in blood and wailing, the pain of others can only temporarily calm his desire, but cannot completely satisfy him.

"Until he met me. He finally found his life."

you.Only you—the words are still in his ears, and every word is his whole heart.

Su Yan had a sore nose, and sighed: "Shen Qi is a miracle."

The meaning of miracle probably means that it is unique in heaven and earth, Altan thought contradictoryly, although this word sounds so harsh, but Shen Qi is the only one among millions of people who can survive drug addiction.

"So, what you did back then was not wrong. Even if you didn't stop Hukuoli Khan, he wouldn't be able to survive. Under the control of the mastermind behind the scenes, he would kill you, the whole family of Wala, and the entire land of Beimo. into the abyss of war.

"Altan, you are not guilty. The laws of the Great Ming have no right to judge you. The old customs of the Northern Desert recognize the kinsading inheritance in extreme cases. Most importantly, the will of your father Khan agrees with you.' You will become The true king of this prairie, this is his last wish, and it is also his life interest in being freed from drug addiction."

"...What about you? What do you think of me?" Altan let go of the man in his arms and stared at his face.

Looking at each other, Su Yan's eyes were moist, and he smiled and said, "Altan is the eagle in my heart. It will never fall and soar forever."

Altan smiled slowly, and unprecedented brilliance flowed in his pupils like the burning sun.He put his forehead against Su Yan's brow, and swore once again: "No matter how Altan flies, he will always be drawn by Unig's thread until death."
