Zhuo Qihua

King Qin was crowned as the crown prince. He went to Danyang Palace to pay respects to the emperor's grandmother, to pay respects to his mother and father, and then to the Wanci Hall to pay homage to his mother and father.In front of Shun's mother and father's hospital bed, the prince kowtowed three times to Shun's mother and father with a big gift, thanking Shun's mother and father for his enlightenment and education since he was a child.Zhuo Ji accepted the big gift from the prince and asked him to get up: "Come and sit down."

The prince came to the bed and sat down, Zhuo Ji glanced at Chang Jing who was standing at the foot of the bed, Chang Jing signaled to the others, everyone backed out and closed the door.The prince was sitting in bed, Zhuo Ji said: "Chen, you are the prince now, in the future, you will receive the most orthodox imperial education, and start to learn to manage this country, Shun's mother and father have a few words to say to you. "

Prince: "The teachings of my mother and father will be used throughout my life. Without my mother and father, I would not be where I am today."

Zhuo Ji: "I've always told you and Chen Mu that this world is huge. Even though the fleet of Mata country has discovered many countries and new land, it is still far from discovering the whole world. Mata country is developing very fast, but its civilization is far from advanced. The emperor is the heart of the country, but the normal and smooth operation of a country cannot rely solely on the emperor."

The prince nodded vigorously.

Zhuo Ji: "There is no country that can last forever, and the same is true of Mata. The development of history is doomed that Mata will be replaced by other countries in the future, or that Mata will be the last emperor on the continent where we are. country. This is the ending of history beyond human control.”

The prince pursed his lips, as his parents had mentioned this before.

"If that day comes, it will not be terrible. The Mata country can become history, but the civilization of the Da Mata Empire can last forever. All of this depends on you, your brothers, and the descendants of the Nanrong family to develop and grow. To promote."

The prince was slightly startled.

Zhuo Ji: "What are your plans for Chen Mu?"

The prince said without even thinking about it: "Naturally, he is assisting my son, he is my most trusted brother!"

Zhuo Ji shook his head: "That's a waste."

The prince looked deep in thought.

Zhuo Ji spoke.The prince listened carefully, listening to Shun's mother and father explaining to him the focus of the future development of the Damata Kingdom, explaining to him why it was a waste to keep Chen Mu by his side to assist him, and listening to Shun's mother and father's vision of how the civilization of the Damata Empire can last forever.

"The territory ruled by the Mata country will become wider and wider. However, with the current development capabilities of the Mata country, steam locomotives and steamships will not make further breakthroughs for a long time. The emperor cannot control all the territory through convenient transportation. In this case, enfeoffment and decentralization are the best options."

The prince couldn't help asking: "Father Shun, what will be on top of the steam locomotive and steam ship? How fast will it be?"

The crown prince also asked this question before, but Zhuo Ji didn't answer.This time, he replied: "It will only be faster than you imagine. Human beings can use the means of transportation that fly in the sky to fly from one end of the world to the other. Now it takes a year's journey on the road, and by then a maximum of a dozen The hour will come."

The prince's eyes were shocked, a vehicle flying in the sky? !

Zhuo Ji: "Prince, there is still a lot to do in Mata country."

Father Shun, who are you?

The prince endured this question, he stood up, and respectfully saluted Shun's mother and father: "Shun's mother and father, your teachings, I have remembered."

"Father Shun believes that you will become a generation of wise kings who will last forever like your father."

Prince: "My son is just standing on the shoulders of giants. The real emperor is the father." And you.

Zhuo Ji pressed his hand and told the prince to sit down.After the other party sat down, Zhuo Ji asked: "How did the investigation go? I asked your father, he told me not to worry."

The prince also said: "Shun's mother and father can rest in peace of mind, this matter is still being investigated, and there is already a clue."

Zhuo Ji: "What eyebrows?"

The prince stopped talking.

Zhuo Ji: "I just want to know, is it related to the children in the palace?"

The crown prince shook his head: "It has nothing to do with the palace. This matter involves the remnants of the abolished Empress Cheng, otherwise the father would not have enshrined the imperial disciples."

Zhuo Ji was surprised: "The former queen?"

Prince: "There are also some stubborn people who only know how to take the imperial examination. They gather together and try to hit a stone with a pebble."

Zhuo Ji was silent for a moment, and asked: "These people want to hit a stone with an egg, why do they want to sow discord between you and Chen Yi? They also want to cause His Majesty to misunderstand the two of you? There must be someone who can benefit from it."

The prince didn't dare to say anything, Shun's mother and father were too sensitive.

The door of the ward was pushed open, and a person walked in.The prince immediately stood up and saluted: "Father."

Emperor Yong'an, who went to Fengtian Temple after the court, came over after a small meeting with the ministers.Hearing Zhuo Ji asking the prince about rebels outside the door, he immediately pushed the door to interrupt.

Emperor Yong'an: "Prince, the Ministry of Rites is waiting for you, you can go there."

Glancing at Shun's mother and father, the prince saluted again: "My son will leave. Shun's mother and father, my son has passed."

Zhuo Ji: "Go."

The prince is gone.

Emperor Yong'an sat down beside the bed: "Is the wound better today?"

Zhuo Ji: "I'm taking painkillers, but I'm not as short of breath as I was yesterday. At noon, Brother Yue made me ginseng chicken soup. I can only drink some soup and water, and my mouth is very pale."

Emperor Yong'an: "You have suffered such a serious injury, so naturally you have to avoid eating it. When you recover, I will accompany you to eat oily noodles."

Zhuo Ji smiled: "Okay."

Emperor Yong'an: "I'm a bit tired, why don't you take a nap with me?"

"……it is good."

Emperor Yong'an made it clear that he would not let Zhuo Ji worry about it, so Zhuo Ji could only suppress his doubts temporarily.Different from the tense atmosphere outside, Zhuo Ji's Wanci Hall was very quiet.The Empress Dowager, Huang Guixie, Deguixie, Mingyu, and Concubine Xi will visit him every day, while others are not allowed to disturb Zhuo Ji.Mingyu spends the longest time in Wanci Hall every day, and he applies to take care of Zhuo Ji.Emperor Yong'an agreed, and also let him talk to Zhuo Ji.

When the crown prince was first established, undercurrents emerged. Emperor Yong'an handed over most of the affairs to the crown prince and King Qi, but he also had to meet ministers and hold meetings every day.

On July 22, the 29nd year of Yong'an, the Second Army stationed in Hanjiang Mansion mutinied.General Wei Sijin of the Second Army led the Second Army to rebel with his own entourage.Wei Sijin's commander did not attack the capital, but planned to leave Hanjiang Mansion with his troops and go northward, to Yin Ji Kingdom, which is across the mountain from Hanjiang Mansion, to establish himself as king.He knew that with his haste to raise troops, there would only be one final result.It's better to take the slant of the sword and choose a safe place to stand on the top of the mountain.The region of Yinji Country is extremely cold, because it is separated from Hanjiang Mansion by a mountain that is never melted by ice and snow all the year round, and there are no precious resources, so it is just a small subsidiary country of Mata State.The ruler of the country was registered by Emperor Yong'an.Wei Sijin's plan is to use the strength of the Second Army to take down the Yin Ji Kingdom with a thunderbolt, and then rely on the snow-capped mountains to resist the conquest of the Mata Army.If he fails, he can also take advantage of Yin Ji's geographical location and leave by sea.

Wei Sijin's plan is good.It's a pity that he died before leaving the army. He was shot from behind by his deputy before he led the army out of Hanjiang Mansion.People were not killed, but captured alive.The other generals of the Second Army tied up Wei Sijin and his loyal subordinates, and sent them to Qin Zhongyi and Lin Yi who rushed over.Pan Begu, who arrived later, led the Fifth Army to quickly suppress the rebellion of the Second Army.This may be the funniest military mutiny in the history of Mata.

It is a bounden duty for soldiers to defend their homes and the country, and obeying military orders is a code of conduct, but their superiors ask them to rebel, but they have their own judgments.The recruits may not feel much yet, but the veterans have a deep feeling for the development of the country in the past ten years.When they were stationed in Beida before, they had poor food and poor housing, and they didn't see a few meals of meat throughout the year.There is military pay, but not much.It was really bitter at that time.But now, there is meat in every meal, steamed buns with white noodles, and fragrant rice.In winter, they have cotton clothes enough to keep out the cold, and even leather jackets!The monthly military salary is paid on time. After the establishment of the military department, Shangfeng can't bother with their military salary.Not only military pay, but also welfare payments during festivals.How happy life is now, but their Shangfeng wants to rebel!To lead them into the abyss!Ask them to betray His Majesty who brought them such a good life!That is absolutely impossible!

When Pan Pozhi arrived at Hanjiang Mansion, the situation of the Second Army was under control.The generals who participated in the rebellion were killed and arrested.Wei Sijin was shot in the leg and survived.Qin Zhongyi sent a military doctor to take out the bullet for him and give him treatment.Wei Sijin must die, but only after being escorted back to the capital can His Majesty vent his anger before he can die.

In Xixiang City, the door of the Shi family's servant of the Ministry of Rites opened. King Qi led Qing Pingwei into the historian's house, and took away the family's husband, a concubine of the owner of the Shi family, and a concubine's son and a direct relative of the concubine's servant. Miss, and all the people who serve around this lady.This young lady was eleven years old, and she was born with a heart attack, and she would take medicine before she knew how to eat.Thanks to the rapid development of medicine in Mata country in the past few years, and the historian's financial resources, he can buy high-quality heart disease-stabilizing drugs for her every year, so as to prolong her life.

In the Zhixing Hall, Shi Keyu, the head of the historian family and the servant of the Ministry of Rites, knelt on the ground tremblingly.At the top, Emperor Yong'an leaned on the dragon chair in a relaxed posture, with a calm expression.But Zhang Xian, who knows Wansui, is very clear about Wansui's inner state at the moment.

Emperor Yong'an played with the two top-grade walnuts in his hand, without saying a word.Shi Keyu below was shaking so much that he might faint at any moment.Ever since King Qi brought Qing Pingwei to the historian's house suddenly, even though Shi Keyu didn't know what was going on, he also understood that the historian's family was in danger!

After drinking two cups of tea, Emperor Yong'an sat up a little bit, and put the Wenwan walnut in his hand on the dragon table.The walnut made a soft sound when it touched the table.The sound was actually very small, but in Shi Keyu's ears it was amplified infinitely.Zhang Xian took a wet towel to wipe Wan Sui's hands, and Emperor Yong'an wiped his fingers casually. After handing the towel to Zhang Xian, he forked a piece of watermelon from the fruit plate on the dragon table and ate it.Zhang Xian immediately sent a plate of fruit cores and told Wan Sui to spit out watermelon seeds.

The cold sweat on Shi Keyu's forehead clearly slid down.Emperor Yong'an ate a few pieces of watermelon and drank half a cup of black tea.After putting down the teacup, he opened his mouth slowly: "Your historians have really produced a good daughter."

"I am frightened!"

Shi Keyu thumped his head heavily on the marble floor.There is no carpet in the Hall of Walking.It is also the only place without carpets among all the sub-palaces of Fengtian Temple.

Emperor Yong'an: "Shi Fangyun has been dead for more than ten years, and there are still people who miss her, want to avenge her, and want to help her raise a daughter. Shi Keyu, you really gave birth to a good daughter."

Emperor Yong'an even said "good daughters" on both sides, and Shi Keyu was so scared that he almost peed out.He bang bang bang bang his head: "Your Majesty, I really don't know that Zhuzi is so bold and colluded with the party. Your Majesty! Even if you give me a hundred courage, I will not dare to commit treason and offend you! I am not strict in housekeeping, and I am willing to be punished." But I really don't know what the concubine is doing outside, I implore Your Majesty to learn from you!"

Emperor Yong'an suddenly grabbed the teacup on the dragon table and threw it at it.Shi Keyu, who was beaten to the point of bleeding, just kowtowed and begged for mercy, not daring to cry out in pain.

"You don't know! They colluded to murder me! Murdered my beloved servant! You don't know!"

"Your Majesty, have mercy! Your Majesty, have mercy!"

Emperor Yong'an walked down and kicked Shi Keyu over, and the dragon's anger surfaced: "At the beginning, Shunxi was soft-hearted and left the baby girl alive! I entrusted her to your historian to raise her, just to remind you all the time, let you Sober! You are good! By the way, I am thinking about her body. Every year, the first new cardiopulmonary medicine released by the research institute is to be taken to your historian. It’s better to execute all your historians than raise tigers!”

"Your Majesty! I really don't know! Your loyalty to His Majesty can be learned from heaven and earth! I really don't know!" Shi Keyu desperately kowtowed for mercy.

"Come here, drag him out, I don't want to see him again!"

The imperial guards came in and dragged the pleading Shi Keyu out.Emperor Yong'an then ordered: "Shi Fangxiu, confine the 'Dong Si Institute'. Order Chen Changgeng to personally interrogate the historian's conspiracy."

"Yes." Zhang Xian went out to deliver the decree.

In Huayang Palace, Concubine Xi was yelling: "Shi Fangyun is a lingering ghost! He's been dead for so many years, yet he's here to harm Shunxi!"

De Guixie rubbed his forehead with a headache: "It's a blessing that Mingxiu isn't here, or if you two come together, my head will explode."

Concubine Xi was very angry.

Sitting at the head of the royal family, the noble lady said quite fairly: "Shi Keyu is not strict in governing the family. It is not enough for His Majesty to send people back to the Shi family. It is not enough for them to take care of them. The identity of 'her' is sensitive, and she is easily deceived. Someone who wants to take advantage of it. It is because 'she' is not in good health and is still young, otherwise I really don't know what will happen."

De Guixie also said fairly: "It's just a pity for Shi Fangxiu. She is a sensible person, but her life is not good enough. She has such an older sister. The daughter she gave birth to is also stupid."

Concubine Xi: "Didn't Shunxi say that the child's IQ follows the mother's."

Deguixie looked at Huangguixie, and Huangguixie knew what he wanted to say just by looking at his eyes.Huang Guixie lowered her voice: "It should be."

Concubine Xi: "What is it?"

De Guixie said vaguely: "The day after Shunxi's accident, Chen Mo went to the Royal Academy and took away a 12-year-old son of the clan."

Concubine Xi didn't react at first: "Clan? The clan is also involved in this matter?" Afterwards, Concubine Xi was shocked and exclaimed: "No way!"

De Guixie nodded: "That's what you guessed."

Concubine Xi gasped.

The prince and the clan's children were still under "house arrest" in Daxing Palace, and Concubine Xi didn't know what happened in Daxing Palace.Concubine Xi covered her mouth with a handkerchief, completely shocked.She suddenly realized that this assassination was not as simple as she thought.This is likely to be an operation secretly united by various forces.If it wasn't for Shunxi's quicker reaction than anyone else, blocking the bullet for His Majesty, if something happened to His Majesty, those people would come to fish in troubled waters before the crown prince was established... The Second Army really conspired against them!

Concubine Xi took another breath.

De Guixie: "Shunxi saved His Majesty, saved countless innocent people, and saved us as well."

Concubine Xi is speechless, this is too scary.Once the opponent succeeds, the consequences are simply not something they can bear!

De Guixie: "Help Mingxi first. I'm afraid he will go to Dongsi Institute to avenge Shunxi."

Concubine Xi: "That one, is also locked in the East Fourth Institute?"

De Guixie nodded.

In Fengtian Temple, Emperor Yong'an went to Taoyuan Pavilion to search for it.Zhuo Ji's ward was too plain, he felt that it was not conducive to Zhuo Ji's recovery, and it would be better to put some calligraphy and paintings.Zhang Xian and Feng Xi waited on the side, collected the calligraphy and paintings selected by Wansui, and took them all to the Wanci Pavilion in a while.After a while, Zhang Xian asked tentatively, "Long live, do you want to meet?"

Emperor Yong'an glanced at him, continued to search, and asked, "Who are you seeing?"

Zhang Xian: "The original one, the Third Highness..."

Emperor Yong'an threw away the scroll of paintings in his hand, and Zhang Xian slapped himself lightly: "Damn it, servant girl!"

Emperor Yong'an walked to the other side of the bookshelf, continued to rummage, and said: "I have counted a few, don't ask Shunxi to wait too long."

As soon as Zhang Xian heard it, he knew that Wan Sui had no interest in the two dragon heirs who were sent out of the palace, and also understood that the two of them might really die this time.He thought so in his heart, but he didn't stop the movement of his hands, and said, "Long live, there are five."

Emperor Yong'an: "Well, let's start with these few pictures."

"The servant girl will pretend now."

Zhang Xian winked at Feng Xi, and the two went out holding the scroll.Emperor Yong'an wiped his hands with a damp cloth, but his eyes were icy cold.
