hermit meets king

At night, Qi Wenxiu left the back door of the small courtyard in the suburbs of Beijing and went to the back door of Tai'an Prince's Mansion.

A little boy came and opened the door.

Take Qi Wenxiu to Xu Sheng's study.

"Master Qi, please sit down." Xu Sheng beckoned and told all the servants to back down.

Qi Wenxiu looked at the layout around him, he hadn't been here for a while, he was a bit unfamiliar, and during that time he had been asking Xu Sheng to contact King Rui directly, but now it finally came in handy, "King Rui has already sent you a message. "

"Well, it's just that I really don't understand." But when Xu Sheng saw the news, he really understood what the second brother was thinking.

"For this matter, he has already given you the list to get rid of the crown prince and the wings of King Rui's Ruan family at the same time."

Qi Wenxiu looked at the dancing candle in front of him, as if he saw the fiery eyes that looked at him in the daytime today.

"Yes, it's just that this list should be a bit strange, right? Logically speaking, it is understandable that the prince is powerless to resist this action." Xu Sheng looked at the scholar opposite, and continued, "But King Rui, he can't be so stupid, right?" I also gave the list of my own people, and it is also on the list to get rid of.

"You can just do it. The imperial court will let you have no resistance." Qi Wenxiu looked back at the person who was looking at him with full eyes.

"This king is really ignorant and inexperienced, and he doesn't understand the way at all." Xu Sheng laughed at himself, a dignified Prince Rui, behind him is the entire Ruan family.

But now he is so stupid that he wants to get rid of a wave of people on his side, and is still suppressing the prince in the court to help him.

"You don't need to understand, all you need to know is that you will sit on the throne in the future." Qi Wenxiu smiled and was not going to explain to the Prince of Tai'an.

"King Narui is good to you, why do you want to get rid of him, but secretly support me?"

If it was said at the beginning, because of the Grand Tutor Wen, or because King Rui was domineering, it doesn't make sense now.

After all, the whole capital knew that Qi Wenxiu, counselor Qi, was King Rui's confidant, and King Rui was very close to him.

Qi Wenxiu knew that Xu Sheng had started to become suspicious, so he said, "I just have an enmity with the Ruan family. The Ruan family has a century-old foundation and once killed my people, although they are as easy as crushing ants."

"Oh?" Xu Sheng never thought that there is such a thing, why didn't he find it when he checked it?

"Of course you can't find out, because that clan has been extinct, and I am the only one who survived. And this matter was wiped out by the Ruan family 20 years ago." Qi Wenxiu said half-truth with.

Seeing the rare sad look on the scholar's face, Xu Sheng held back, not pretending.

Even if his words are false, the enmity with the Ruan family must be true.Because judging from these arrangements and all the news I got before, it really makes sense.

It turned out that what he wanted to deal with was not the crown prince, King Rui, or himself, but the Ruan family.

That's why the prince was allowed to stay until now, he was too lazy to pay attention to himself, but he was very concerned about King Rui but he was the most ruthless.

In this way, everything makes sense.It's just, would a person with such a strategy really stop before the throne that was within easy reach for him?

"One more thing is, you have to pretend to be implicated and get rid of the people on the list here." Qi Wenxiu said, then took out a piece of paper from his bosom and handed it to Xu Sheng.

Xu Sheng took it over, opened it, and found that they were all unknown people, compared to the people on the previous list, they were not worth mentioning at all, "I didn't expect these little people to be specially ordered by Mr. Qi, it's worth dying .”

"Just kidding." Qi Wenxiu stood up, looked at the bright candlelight, and saluted, "It's nothing, Qi Bian has retired."

Within a few days, a major event that shocked the government and the public occurred in Haoyuan Kingdom.

There was a riot in Yuzhou, and a city had already been captured.In this peaceful and prosperous age, such absurd things actually happened!

What is even more incredible is that the officers and soldiers of the three cities joined forces with civilian soldiers to riot.

The reason turned out to be the three connected cities of Yuzhou, Liangzhou, and Jingzhou, because they are located in remote places and the environment is bitter and cold.

He also has poor governance all the year round, and he was deceived by others, withholding military pay all the year round and increasing taxes, making people's livelihood miserable and unable to make a living.

And for so many years, it has been protected by officials and officials, and it has become rotten.Not only are the local magistrates corrupt and corrupt, but they are even layered on top of each other, all the way to the capital, which can be said to be deeply rooted.

But this time, it was very difficult.When this happens, it is a joke in the peaceful and prosperous age. If the suppression is not dealt with in time, I am afraid that other people with bad intentions will use it to make a fuss.

At this time, the relationship is very important, and many people in the DPRK and China are involved.Many henchmen of the prince and King Rui also participated in it.These characters are their important wings.

The prince was so anxious that he was like an ant on a hot pot, this matter must not be taken away by King Rui, otherwise he would definitely protect his subordinates, and take advantage of this incident to wipe out all his staff.

Originally, because of the previous incident, he had already lost a lot, and he has not recovered yet. After finally making a little move, he was completely broken by this incident.

In the court hall, the emperor was sitting on the dragon chair, looking at his two princes, saying what you said and what I said, like fleas in a hurry, desperately trying to take the right to deal with the riot this time into his own hands .

They are not old yet, and they want to pull themselves down from the dragon position, and they can't help but feel chilled.It is said that there is no father and son in the Tian family, and today I know it.

If it happened before, I could turn a blind eye and close one eye, but now this matter affects the whole world and all the officials in the government and the field. It has deep roots and must be eradicated.

But who should go?

It doesn't matter who goes, there are only two factions in this court, one belongs to King Rui and the other belongs to the prince.

It doesn't matter whoever is allowed to go, either the prince's people or King Rui's people.Moreover, the stakes are so great at this time, if the people who go there are not big enough, they will not be able to suppress them.

One is that they can't suppress the rioting people, and more importantly, they can't suppress the current prince and the eight dragon ball princes.

Who should go?

After retiring from the court, the emperor was still worried about this matter.

But the old eunuch Huang Gonggong who was beside the emperor reminded, "Your Majesty, I see that Prince Tai'an is brave and good at fighting, and he guarded the frontier for four years before."

After being reminded by him, the emperor remembered, yes, he has another prince.

It's just that I have been deliberately ignoring him all this time.Over time, I really habitually ignored him.It would be best for him to deal with this matter now.

Since he had guarded the frontier for four years, he was brave and good at fighting.It also represents the royal family, which weight depends on who can't suppress it.

Moreover, this son is not good at means, with an upright and serious appearance, he is the best talent for a general.

The next day, above the court hall, hundreds of officials went up to see each other.They are all discussing the Yuzhou riots.

The prince and King Rui are still facing each other, and they both want to win the imperial decree from the Holy One to go to Yuzhou.

The hearts of all the officials are also hanging, they are all waiting for the big tree they are leaning against to shelter themselves from the wind and rain.

No one expected that the person who finally ordered the emperor to go to Yuzhou to suppress the riots was actually the third prince who had never been favored, Prince Tai'an.

"Pass down my decree, order the prince of Tai'an to be the ambassador of Jing, Yu, and Liang Sanzhou, and give Shang Fang a sword. If I come in person, I can cut it first and then play it, so as to put down the riot." The emperor decreed.

"My son accepts the order, long live my emperor, long live, long live." Xu Sheng knelt down to accept the order.

Everything is planned.

The prince breathed a sigh of relief, he was originally in a disadvantaged situation, and this time the chance of holding the imperial edict in his hands was slim, but the consequences were of great importance, so he jumped to get the imperial edict of suppression.

The person who is going to Yuzhou now is the third brother who does nothing. Although it is not as good as his own, it is better than Xu Yanzhuo.

It's just that no one saw the smile in Xu Yanzhuo's eyes.

No one knew that in the small courtyard on the outskirts of Beijing, Qi Wenxiu looked at the scorching candle and burned a secret letter in his hand.

In Tai'an Palace.

Si Koulin knew that Xu Sheng was going to go to the remote Yuzhou.It is thousands of miles away from the capital.Even if you ride a fast horse, it will take half a month to get there.

How could she be willing to let him go? After thinking about it for so long, she couldn't see him.Thinking about it again, Yuzhou was a riot, and it happened on three continents, and it was actually that simple.

Si Koulin insisted on following Xu Sheng.

Xu Sheng looked at the young man in front of him. He had long hair loose, was dressed in white, and his skin was as white as ice and snow in winter. How could he be willing to go back and forth to that remote and cold place, "Xiaolin, you just stay in the palace." Just go. I'll be back in a few months."

"A few months?" Hearing what he said, Si Koulin unexpectedly had to be separated for such a long time, and would not see him for such a long time.Even more determined to go with him, "I'm going..."

Xu Cheng patted the young man's head, "It's not for fun, it's for rioting. And you have something to do, so you shouldn't go."

Si Koulin shook his head, shook his hand from his head, and said seriously, "I know, I want to go with you because it is very dangerous." After thinking for a while, he continued, "This journey, over mountains and mountains, jackals There are so many tigers and leopards, I can help you."

"Those are not important compared to your safety." Xu Sheng looked at the sincerity in the young man's eyes and persuaded him, "Besides, this king will lead troops there."

Si Koulin is determined, and his words can still be heard there, "It's different, you said you would take me to many, many places, this time I will go with you!"

Xu Sheng has nothing to do with this child, depending on his child's temperament, but he is extremely persistent in what he decides, "This is not a joke."

"Of course I know." Si Koulin nodded firmly.
