Reincarnation of the powerful minister

In the deepest cell of the Imperial Prison, King Ning picked up a black chess piece from the corner of the bed.

The chess pieces are made of high-quality black jade, which is obviously not something that prisoners or ordinary jailers can have.Presumably the former resident of this cell was an unusual person who also liked to play chess, so he accidentally lost a sunspot in the gap between the foot of the bed and the stone wall.

Did that person leave alive, or did he already die under the eighteen tortures in the imperial prison?Ning Wang picked up the chess pieces, and a flash of thought flashed through his mind, do I still have a chance to get out of prison and make a comeback?

Although he fell into the trap set by Zhu Helin and Altan at the last moment, resulting in the failure of many years of planning, he may not lose all. He still has some hidden powers, such as the believers who follow him to the death, such as the black pill that can manipulate anyone.Since he survived from Yu Wangzhai, it means that the sky will never stop him, and maybe there is still a chance to turn around.

There was the sound of rattling iron chains outside the prison door.

Was it Jin Yiwei who came to torture him to extract a confession, or took him to the court for a joint trial by the three divisions?King Ning held the sunspot that sparked hope in his palm, straightened his clothes, and sat upright on the edge of the couch.

The prison door was opened heavily, and a group of stern-faced Jinyi guards walked in. The leader was a dark complexioned man with an unremarkable appearance, but his eyes were extremely sharp.

King Ning was already mentally prepared, and looked at them calmly with the aura that Tianhuang nobles should have.

However, Jin Yiwei didn't speak to him, and stood apart from the two sides, as if he was waiting for the nobleman.

Then, a man wearing a pale cloak stepped into the cell and stood a foot away from him.The hood covered the man's face. King Ning guessed that the man might be the new Commander of Jin Yiwei who was here to convey the imperial edict, so he still sat still and said, "I thought Zhu Helin's temperament, even if he wasn't interested, You should also be full of doubts, come and interrogate me yourself."

The man stretched out his hand to lift off the hood, and revealed his true face in front of him: "If I come to interrogate, doesn't it show your identity more than He Lin?"

King Ning opened his blue eyes wide in disbelief, even the red mole under his eyes distorted its position in shock, and said in a voiceless voice: "You—are you still alive?!"

Emperor Jing Long watched him calmly: "I have let you down, Zhu Tanluo."

After the intense confusion, King Ning gradually figured out the key, his already pale face became more and more bloody, and he gritted his teeth angrily: "I thought it was Zhu Helin and Altan who were in a game, but it turned out it was not, and it turned out to be earlier." ! It's you...and Shen Qi! And Su Yan, he is the key person who connects the forces of all parties, he is the key point of chess!"

Emperor Jinglong said: "You have been planning for more than ten years, using the world as a chess game, but you can't see who the real opponent is, and you can't see through the eyes that determine the overall situation. How can you be undefeated?"

The iron gate of the prison door was closed with King Ning's unwilling expression.

That night, no one knew what Emperor Jing Long and King Ning Zhu Tanluo said in the prison cell, even the eight guards present at the scene, under Chu Yuan's instruction, kept their mouths tight and would never reveal anything.

When Emperor Jing Long left, King Ning sat slumped on the ground in front of the bed, no longer in his old demeanor, as if all the energy in his body had been drained.

"Hehe...hahahaha..." He raised his head and broke out into bursts of miserable laughter, until he was out of breath, and then changed from panting to asthma, his face flushed as if he was suffocating, and his fingers tremblingly tore open the interlayer of his sleeves.

A dozen large black pills rolled out of the interlayer.

He pinched out a small piece with his nails and put it in his mouth. Suddenly he sneered, stuffed the whole pill into his mouth and chewed vigorously, and before he could swallow it, he stuffed the second and third pills...

Do not overdose.Heiduo reminded her several times.He asked: What happens if you overdose?Heiduo said: There is no cure for the way of death.He asked again: Is it painful to die?Heiduo smiled ugly: No, not only is there no pain, but it's more like being in supreme bliss, where everything you want and want can be greatly satisfied.Isn't this the happiest way to die in the world?

King Ning leaned his head back and rested his head on the edge of the bed, feeling his body melt with the heaven and earth, his soul gradually lifted up, walked out of the gloomy prison, left the majestic capital, passed through the dark room where his mother was imprisoned in the Qin Palace, and passed by groups of people who were doing their best for his revenge. The wraith who had left the stepping stones... Finally, he fluttered to a stop under the ancient pine beside the stream.

Panasonic has a natural stone table with a rough chessboard carved into it.

Mr. He, who lowered his head and meditated, seemed to sense something, raised his face and smiled slightly at him: "I have been waiting for you for a long time. Come on, let's not talk about business today, we will only play chess."

Zhu Tanluo felt that Mr. He looked a little different from the past, and after careful inspection, he found that he was wearing only white clothes, but today he was wearing a red dress that had never been seen before, the color was like a flaming red lotus.He was still holding the lyre in his lap, as if he couldn't bear to put it down even when playing chess.

There is already an endgame on the chessboard, and Mr. He has dropped the white piece on a precipitous place, and his moves are heroic and treacherous.

Zhu Tanluo's mind today is not on the chess game.He couldn't help asking: "Why do you want to walk with me?"

Mr. Crane was taken aback, and said with a smile: "Ah, because you and I are chess friends."

"wrong."

"Because we each take what we need."

"Not quite."

Mr. He smiled, and said seriously: "Because I want to inherit the behest of my ancestors, realize my great wish, and build a country where everyone believes in religion and has a pure heart. Yu made His Royal Highness King Ning the resident of this great wish, just like those who borrowed the king Famous ministers who carry out their own government."

"Have you ever thought that maybe you picked the wrong guy?"

Mr. He thought and thought, and slowly shook his head: "Imagination is useless."

Zhu Tanluo was about to ask something more, but Mr. He urged: "It's your turn."

He lowered his head when he heard the words, looked intently at the chessboard, and saw the star position that determined the overall situation at a glance, but there was no dowry on the table, let alone black chess pieces, how could he make a move?He fumbled in his sleeve anxiously, and took out a sunspot made of high-quality black jade. With a relaxed heartstring, he sent the sunspot to the star position.

Mr. He sighed: "Yu lost again. But so what? Life is uncertain, winning or losing is common sense, if you lose, you lose, and you have no regrets."

"No regrets?" Zhu Tanluo suddenly became excited and raised her voice, "But there are regrets, resentments, unwillingness, and unfinished remembrances!"

"Let's go with the wind." Mr. He said.As the wind passed through the pine, flames rose from his red shirt and burned into raging flames in a blink of an eye. Holding the Guqin, he smiled one last time at his only chess mate and melted in the flames.

Zhu Tanluo stared at all this steadfastly, her agitated expression calmed down. "I have no regrets." He picked up the sunspot, and let the fingertips that touched the sunspot - to the arm - to the shoulder turn black and cracked inch by inch, and finally his body collapsed like a tower of floating sand, scattered into the sky black dust.

In the prison cell, King Ning kept his back against the edge of the couch and tilted his head back, with a strange and stiff smile on his face, his pupils dilated.What he was thinking in the last moment of his life, no one knows.

Outside the imperial prison, Emperor Jinglong, with a hood covering his head and face, walked out of the gate of Beizhen Fusi under the escort of Jin Yiwei, and at the same time asked Chu Yuan in a low voice: "Write it down?"

Chu Yuan replied: "I remember it all. I will report to my young master to catch all the Tibetan medicine lands and drug pharmacists that King Ning confessed."

Emperor Jing Long hesitated for a while, and finally said: "The pregnant side concubine Ning... let her go."

Chu Yuan was a little surprised. Although the emperor in his impression would not be unscrupulous, he could be called rational to the point of cruelty.In this deal with King Ning, the emperor clearly had the upper hand, and no one can blame him for not fulfilling the contract, but the emperor still gave up the idea of ​​cutting grass and root?

"The emperor is not worried. After a few years, there will be another Zhu Xian?"

On the branches of green apricots, night birds chirped a few times. Emperor Jing Long looked up and said calmly: "A dynasty that can be overthrown by one or two Zhu Xians shows that it is rotten in its bones. Without Zhu Xians, there are Wang Xians, Li Xian. On the other hand, as long as the court puts the people first, the emperor governs the country with righteousness and law, and all the hearts of the world belong to our court, why should we be afraid?"

Chu Yuan thought about it, and felt that this was really the case.However, the emperor who can say this truth seems to be different from the emperor who was in office... It's just that he can't tell.

He walked to the side of the carriage, and was about to lift the curtain to invite the emperor to get on the carriage, but a tall and handsome black horse galloped through the middle of the road with a knight on it, and a gust of wind was blown up in the afterimage, lifting Emperor Jinglong's hood Open up.

Chu Yuan was startled, and stepped forward to block it: "Is the emperor all right?"

"It doesn't matter." Emperor Jing Long said, pulled up his hood, and was about to get in the car.

The black horse in the distance neighed suddenly, was reined in by the knight, turned around quickly, and ran towards them again.Now Chu Yuan became vigilant, motioned his subordinates to escort Emperor Jinglong to board the car, stepped forward and shouted: "Who is so bold, don't they know that galloping a horse in a busy city is a violation of the law?"

The man on the horse approached quickly, and after seeing the opponent's eyes clearly in the light of the torch, Chu Yuan said in surprise, "...His Royal Highness King Yu?"

King Yu was dressed in casual clothes, looking as if he was in a hurry to find someone, but he stopped because of a figure passing out of the corner of his eye halfway, and turned around to see what happened.He stared at the cloaked man, and raised his voice: "Which Jinyiwei leader is this? The figure is very strange, why don't you pull down the hood and let me see if it's a villain in disguise."

Chu Yuan frowned: "Your Highness has just said it. Your Highness has just returned to Beijing, so it is normal for him to be unfamiliar with the new Jinyiwei. We are waiting for the emperor's order, and we will perform our duties. Please don't stir up trouble."

King Yu squinted his eyes and looked at him: "I think your black charcoal head looks familiar..." Suddenly his eyes lit up, and he blurted out, "You are Yuqian—"

The man in the cloak sighed silently under the hood, and before he could say the words "Chu Yuan, Commander of the Guards", he raised his hand and shook four fingers at King Yu.

This action of waving his hand to call people is quite familiar, King Yu's face changed instantly, and even his voice changed, sharp as a blade: "Huang——"

"Second Brother." Emperor Jing Long interrupted him, and said calmly, "Talk in detail in the carriage."

In the carriage, King Yu heard Chu Yuan tell the whole story, his face was full of anger, his molars were clenched, and there seemed to be thousands of swords and swords and strong evil spirit in his eyes staring at Emperor Jing Long.

Chu Yuan was afraid that he would swing his clenched fist on Emperor Jinglong's face, knowing that he would lose to the mighty God of War in northern Xinjiang, but he still loyally blocked himself.

Emperor Jing Long pressed Chu Yuan's arm and said, "Don't worry, he won't really hurt me."

King Yu said angrily: "Do you think I won't make a move? I have the heart to fucking kill you!"

Emperor Jinglong reminded: "Demeanor. After returning to the barracks, his stamina did not increase, but he was infected with a soldier's ruffian air."

King Yu wanted to take advantage of this soldier's anger to slap his second brother, and return the slap he had received before.He really made a move, broke through Chu Yuan's block in mid-air, but was grabbed by the wrist by Emperor Jing Long, who was far less powerful than him, and fixed him on the spot.

Chu Yuan was furious and wanted to fight back, but Emperor Jing Long said, "Back down." Seeing his resentment, he ordered again, "Back down!"

Chu Yuan had no choice but to obey, and threatened the king of Yu, "Your Highness must focus on the 10 people in the Jingbei Army", and then got out of the carriage.

Only the two long-lost brothers remained in the carriage.

King Yu snatched his wrist back from the other party's palm, and asked angrily: "How many people know? Qinghe, your son, Shen Qi, even Lan Xi know it! You only keep it from me? Why, guarding against me is like guarding against thieves, afraid of me After knowing the truth, take the opportunity to seize the position or leak it to the player?"

"That's not the case. The fewer people who know about this, the better. It's safe to tell you, but you seem to be loose, but you are actually upright. Letting you pretend to be in pain is making things difficult for you."

King Yu sneered: "It seems that my dandyism in the capital in the past ten years has not been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so that Brother Huang is not at ease about my acting skills."

Emperor Jing Long sighed: "The mask you took off so easily, but I don't want you to put it on again."

King Yu was stunned, and snorted coldly: "What do you mean by 'pretending to be in pain'? Even if I really thought you were dead, I have never been in pain! Eat as you eat, fight as you fight." He paused, with subtle malice Then he said, "Aji's second father, I can still sleep well."

This time it was Emperor Jing Long's turn to be stunned, and then took a deep breath, as if he was trying to suppress the surging dark emotions, and finally said in a deep voice: "I saw the golden helmet I used in the early years."

One sentence was like an arrow hitting the bull's-eye, nailing King Yu right through.

He almost showed an expression of chagrin and embarrassment, regretting why he kept the old golden helmet of Emperor Jinglong, so that it was used by the other party as a raft to make fun of him today.

"I didn't make fun of you." Emperor Jing Long said seriously.

King Yu remained silent, thinking in his mind that his second elder brother who seemed to know everything knew whether Qinghe had incurred another debt of love in Beimo. According to Jing Hongzhui, "My lord took over the sixth house again." ?

This time, Emperor Jing Long didn't hear his heartfelt voice, but continued: "To be honest, I was a little surprised by this. But after thinking about it, I found it to be expected. After all, you and I are a compatriot with one mother. Stretch."

King Yu opened his mouth with a hoarse voice: "You have blamed your mother for ten years, but half of this blame is your own will, there is nothing to deny."

"I don't deny it."

"You put me under house arrest for ten years, but before you feigned death, you asked Qinghe to guide Zhu Helin to let me go. You didn't stop me from rebuilding the Jingbei Army, so the old grievances between us are wiped out."

"I hope it can be written off."

"One for one. There's another debt, and you and I might be trying to separate each other, so it's too early to say 'break the bones and connect the tendons.'"

"What debt?"

"Love debt." King Yu's face gradually returned to calm, but his tone became more firm, "There is only one debt between you and my brother and Qinghe that can be collected in full. Brother Huang, I have already said that I will never let go Yes. If you have the same plan, we will continue to fight in this life."

Emperor Jinglong was silent for a long time, until King Yu's heart grew cold.At the end, I heard his emperor's brother spit out a sentence quietly: "How did I hear that there are six debts? Of the six debts, only one can be collected. How do you plan? One against five?"
