With a "squeak", as the door opened, a ray of light and shadow came in. This is an unknown dark room, and the floor is covered with thick weeds.The person sitting on it raised his head when he heard the sound, and saw that although his hair was in a disheveled bun, his expression was indifferent and rebellious.Two men in fish suits with knives at their sides took out the keys, opened the shackles around his feet, lifted him up, and were about to be escorted out.The man sneered, broke away from their hands, and said: "You don't have to hold me back, I, Li Huanzong, can walk on my own."

After leaving the yard, they came to a side hall. After washing and changing clothes in silence for a while, Li Huanzong and the two people who closely followed him and guarded him got into a small carriage.Along the way, he closed his eyes and looked indifferent and indifferent to his surroundings.He opened his eyes only after the carriage stopped. After getting out of the carriage, he looked up and saw a plaque hanging high, with three big characters dancing in dragons and phoenixes, attracting attention.This is the famous "Bai Jing Tang" in the capital.

Baijingtang is one of the best restaurants in the capital, when princes and generals entertain guests, many people choose this place.The reason why Baijingtang is so prosperous is that the person who runs it has a deep connection with the Beigong family of the royal family, and even the plaque written by Beigongliu, the Taizu of Jin Dynasty, hangs in front of the main entrance.

On this summer afternoon, a group of unusual guests suddenly came to Baijingtang's Yang Qiu Pavilion.There are not many guests, but only 23 people.They either kept silent with ice-cold faces, or showed sloppy gestures in a rebellious manner, or simply glared angrily at the person who was sitting at the head of the seat, drinking alone.However, these visitors all have a common characteristic, that is, they are all members of the list of "treacherous ministers" listed in Bei Gongdi's "Qing Emperor's Side".

Going back to the courtyard through the long corridor, Li Huanzong stepped into the room, and with a slight sweep, he saw Jiao Yayuan, Minister of Dali Temple, Yang Zhong, Minister of War, Chang Wenxu, Minister of Household, Rong Sang, Editor-in-law of the Imperial Academy, and Xu You, son-in-law. ... Li Huanzong narrowed his eyes suddenly, Hong Sheng couldn't help but sneered and said, "What kind of wind brought Sir Liu Yuan here today?"

Liu Yuan was one of the first group of courtiers who demoted King Yan after Bei Gongdi invaded the capital. He was originally a third-rank servant of the Ministry of Rites.But he lowered his head to himself, as if he didn't hear what Li Huanzong said.Li Huanzong couldn't help but looked at the other side of Liu Yuan's left seat, cupped his hands at Fang Jingxuan who was pale and sitting with his head lowered, and sat down at random.

In this way, seven or eight people came one after another. After a while, Chen Xiayang entered the court with two attendants.He sat on the upper seat, ignored everyone's different looks, coughed and said: "It's almost time for people to come, let's have a meal. Xiaofu, I would like to offer you a cup." Immediately when he started chopsticks, there were always people on the side. The waitress brings dishes to the tables.

Chen Xiayang ate happily, but the rest of the rebels didn't think so, and there were many people who couldn't eat without taste.However, because of the literati's face and etiquette, they had to pretend to be calm.It's just that the wine on the table is not touched by many people.The people secretly communicated and hinted, but Chen Xiayang didn't say anything, neither said why, nor what kind of fate would be waiting for everyone after eating.

Finally, everyone knew from Liu Yuan's inadvertent disclosure that all this had a lot to do with "Fang Jingxuan" above.Everyone couldn't help but scrutinized this fellow student, only to find that the pain and bewilderment on Fang Jingxuan's face was mixed with an indistinguishable expression between the blinking eyes.

People who dined had different minds, and only a few people who knew Fang Jingxuan well could see something unusual.However, before they had time to ask, they were interrupted by Chen Xiayang's persuasion.

After drinking and eating, someone finally seized the opportunity to ask, "Mr. Fang, what happened to Jingxin Palace last night?"

Fang Jingxuan's face was more painful, he pursed his lips, but couldn't say anything.

At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Bei Gongdi walked in with a group of attendants.Some of the crowd opened their mouths to reprimand, but they all froze at Bei Gongdi's cold glance that seemed to be a half-smile, and their mouths were stuck but they couldn't speak.Bei Gongdi entered the courtyard, took the seat that had always been vacant, tapped his right hand slightly on the table, and looked around. His eyes fell back on Fang Jingxuan who kept his head down.

At this moment when the atmosphere was slightly stagnant, Bei Gongdi smiled slightly, and everyone couldn't help but feel a little cold, only to hear him say leisurely: "All of you here are old ministers of Wenxi, and they all know each other well. However, as ministers, you bully The emperor is disobedient, disturbing the sage, and causing Emperor Wenxi to rebel and collapse. The loss of the ruler of the country is disloyalty, and the death of the emperor is disfilial. Being disloyal and unfilial, and committing heinous crimes. Death is not a pity!"

"But a country cannot be without a king for a day, and the community of the world cannot be abandoned." Bei Gongdi changed his words, "I think that God has the virtue of good life, and I can't bear to kill. I can forgive you for not dying. Xihai needs enlightenment, so it's better for you Everyone follow the emperor's nephews—Wang Cheng and King Hui, and go to make meritorious deeds. As for Mr. Fang, leave behind to teach Emperor Wenxi's son, and I will make him Prince Gong soon."

As soon as this remark came out, the whole hall was silent.Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, secretly suspicious, and was stunned by Bei Gongdi's sudden words.

Originally, everyone thought that they would inevitably die, so they died for the country, and there was no regret in death.I never thought that after being imprisoned for so many days, this strange thing is so conclusive.When did Bei Gongdi, the god-killing prince, change his temper?How could Bei Gongdi, who has always been vengeful, let the "Zuo Ni Wenchen", who repeatedly made him unsafe during the battle against the Qing emperor and was in danger many times, survive?

But Bei Gongdi turned his head and pointed at Liu Yuan: "You, Liu Yuan, follow them too."

"Your Highness!" Liu Yuan raised his head and said in shock, "This, this, why?"

"Why?" With a half-smile on Bei Gongdi's face, he stood up suddenly, stretched out his hand and slashed open Liu Yuan's coat with lightning speed, only to hear a "ping-pong", and a dagger fell. on the ground.

There was a thud in everyone's heart, secretly thinking that something was wrong.

"Keep you, are you waiting for you to kill Gu?" Bei Gongdi said lazily.

Although all the people here are brave and fearless people, they are also experienced, shrewd and understanding people.They naturally knew that this Bei Gongdi entered the capital and had not yet been killed, it was when King Yan was doing forbearance, because he didn't want to wash the imperial city with blood.Once he became murderous, not to mention bloodshed, everyone would be in danger, and it was certain that he would be in danger.

Now that Liu Yuan has been exposed, I'm afraid that the hanging butcher's knife will fall, after all, no king has tolerated assassination since ancient times.

Just when everyone present secretly said "my life is over", there was a sneer from Bei Gongdi, he turned around and was about to leave Bai Jingtang.

"Your Highness!" A sudden voice called Bei Gongdi who was halfway there, but it was Fang Jingxuan who raised his head and spoke for the first time.

"Please go to Xihai."

"Don't be alone!" Bei Gongdi couldn't help being furious when he heard a burst of arrogance coming from nowhere.His brows were gradually furrowed, his head was slightly sideways, his outline was cold and his eyes were narrow.

He said gloomyly: "Sir and Bei Gongyan are staying in the capital. I heard that Bei Gongyan is two years old and is prone to wind and cold. If you ignore the flesh and blood of Emperor Wenxi, you can do it yourself."

"Next, next..." Fang Jingxuan said halfway, his eyes darkened.Looking up, he saw Bei Gongdi looking at him coldly, with a sword pressed against the side of his neck, with a cold light.Bei Gongdi smiled clearly, but it made people feel that he was menacing, but from Fang Jingxuan's perspective, it seemed that those extremely bright eyes were extremely beautiful. "What else do you want to say, sir? Gu Ke hasn't forgotten that."

Fang Jingxuan finally fell silent.Bei Gongdi put away his sword, put his life back into its sheath, and said softly: "Fang Jingxuan, do you think that matter is over? Huh!" After saying that, he left this place with a strange atmosphere.Fang Jingxuan had a pale face, smiled wryly, and silently thought about Chen. She really turned her face and was ruthless, moody, but did she really want to take that unknown road?

Bei Gongdi sat in the car with a cold face, restless in his heart.He couldn't tell why Fang Jingxuan repeatedly proposed to go to the West Sea, and he was so unwilling, let alone the source of that trace of anger.This made him even more annoyed. Fang Jingxuan and Bei Gongdi chewed the name carefully. When they closed their eyes, the pride standing in the blood of the past, the "enemy" who provoked him to kill, and the handsome but upright face The face floated in front of my eyes.Along with that, Bei Gongdi recalled more other things about being a prince in his previous life, and fell into deep thought unconsciously.

From being a prince, to becoming a prince, to guarding the north, frightening the kings, blood staining the country, and stepping onto the throne.Bei Gongdi is not a good person, let alone a pure idealist. He is greedy for profit and good at using power and strategy. He is alone and intrigues.Bei Gongdi also has ideals, that is to become a great emperor through the ages, achieve great fame, and make Dajin one of the rulers of the world...so he can care about the people and treat them kindly; .All this is because of his sobriety, he knows exactly what he wants.

But now something has changed, and there is someone who can tug at his heartstrings.

It was Fang Jingxuan.

Bei Gongdi didn't kill him when he invaded the capital and burned down the hall, didn't kill him after the rain and dew that night, and still didn't kill him when he rebelled like this today.

Bei Gongdi himself couldn't tell why.

"Fang Jingxuan can't be killed. If you kill the world's reading seeds, you will die."

But is this really the reason?Maybe Bei Gongdi didn't know at all, and didn't want to know.But he never expected that a small wave could change countless futures...
