Unparalleled Concubine

"Forever a minister of Jin!"

Chapter 822 What's next?

This kind of naive oath is bullshit for any politician in the court, even if it is a small official of the seventh or eighth rank. Most of the people who really hang around in the power field are shrewd, slick and sophisticated. Let alone an oath, some people can even deny their parents.

But Li Xin was not.

In comparison, Li Xin is still a person who values ​​loyalty, and if he values ​​loyalty, he will value promises. It is precisely because the emperor knows this that he forces Li Xin to make such an oath.

Sitting opposite the emperor, Li Xin took a deep look at the emperor. After being silent for a while, he smiled: "I swear, will your majesty believe it?"

The emperor closed his eyes, nodded and said, "I will believe it."

"In the whole world, I may not believe anyone who swears an oath, but I will believe it only if you, Li Changan, swear an oath."

"Well."

Li Xin nodded and said, "I swear."

He stood up from the chair, turned around to face the main hall, stretched out three fingers, and closed his eyes to make an oath.

"As a lesson from the emperor's empress, Li Xin of Yongzhou swears here that in this life..."

"Forever a minister of Jin."

Having said that, Li Xin paused, and then continued: "If you break your oath, heaven and earth will not tolerate it!"

After saying this, Li Xin stood up from the ground, looked back at the emperor, and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, I have made an oath."

The Son of Heaven breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately relaxed. He was originally sitting on the dragon couch, and felt a little tired, so he lay down slowly, his voice hoarse.

"It doesn't matter if you are sincere... or you are lying to me, no matter what, I believe it..."

Said, the emperor waved his hand.

"I... I'm tired, you go back."

Li Xin bowed deeply to the emperor, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, take care of the dragon's body, and I will take my leave."

The Son of Heaven opened his eyes and took one last look at Li Xin.

"The crown prince has lived in your house for a while, when he sees Xiao Jiu, let him go back to the East Palace..."

Li Xin felt a little sad.

Let the prince return to the palace, which means that the emperor's body may have problems at any time, and the prince must be in the palace in case of accidents.

Li Xin lowered his head and said, "I understand."

After speaking, Li Xin bowed his hands and said goodbye, while Xiao Zheng sent Li Xin out of Weiyang Palace instead of the emperor.

After sending Li Xin out of Weiyang Palace, Xiao Zheng quickly returned to Weiyang Palace, and was still serving the emperor. At this time, the emperor's face was not only pale, but even started to turn blue. The eunuch Xiao's face changed, and he said in a low voice: " Your Majesty, do you want to take medicine?"

The emperor shook his head with some difficulty.

"No more medicine."

He took a few deep breaths, managed to pull himself together, and slowly said to Xiao Zheng, "Preach my... will."

"Starting today, all eight gates of the inner city and seven gates of the outer city will be replaced. The guards of the imperial city will take over the outer gates, and the inner guards will take over the inner gates. The change of defense will be completed within three days..."

"Tune... Qianniuwei and the inner guard are on duty in Miyagi."

The Son of Heaven took a few deep breaths before he could barely continue: "King Qi... and King Zhao are dead. Without my will, neither of the two of them is allowed to leave the mansion. If there is any change... Plum Blossom Guard can... ...cut first and play later!"

The Plum Blossom Guard is the ninth prisoner of the Eight Prisons of the Inner Court, and it is also the sharpest dagger in the hands of the emperor. Although the Plum Blossom Guard is under the control of the Internal Guard of the Eight Prisons, the power of the Internal Guard is only in the inner court, and the Plum Blossom Guard is actually spread all over the country. The world is even more powerful than the Tianmu prison in terms of news.

Of course, whether it is the Tianmu Supervisor or the Plum Blossom Guard, they are only part of the emperor's secret forces.

The Ji family founded the country for more than 40 years, and has ruled the world for [-] years. Moreover, the recent generations of emperors can be regarded as effective monarchs. The state machine is in the hands of these people. How many things are hidden in the dark? I am afraid that only the emperor is still alive. Xiao Zheng, who is the chief eunuch of the internal servant, understood clearly.

Xiao Zheng nodded, gritted his teeth and said, "Your servant will do it now."

"Go again...inform Hou Jingde and let him enter the palace..."

The Son of Heaven coughed a few more times, his voice hoarse.

"Tell the ministers at Shangshutai that they will come to Weiyang Palace to see me tomorrow."

Xiao Zheng remembered all these things in his heart, and bowed his head deeply: "Your Majesty, the servants have remembered all these things..."

The Son of Heaven nodded weakly. He only felt exhausted all over his body and his eyes were heavy. After telling Xiao Zheng what to do, he slowly closed his eyes, and soon he was unconscious.

Xiao Zheng couldn't even tell whether His Majesty was asleep or passed out.

………………

After Li Xin came out of Weiyang Palace, he did not go home immediately, but waited at the gate of Kunde Palace for an hour or two, and finally waited until the eldest princess came out of Kunde Palace, and came out with him, and The real master of the harem, the empress dowager.

When the old lady saw her son-in-law, she would inevitably have to dawdle for a while. By the time the husband and wife actually came out of the palace, it was already evening.

They also brought out a large bag of snacks from the old lady from Kunde Palace.

The husband and wife were sitting in the black carriage in the Jing'an Hou Mansion, and Chen Shiliu was sitting in front of the carriage, and the carriage slowly walked towards the Jing'an Hou Mansion in Yongle Square.

In the carriage, the princess was leaning against Li Xin's arms, her eyes were red and swollen.

Li Xin reached out and patted her shoulder, sighed, "Don't be too sad."

The eldest princess shook her head, her voice still tinged with tears.

"Chang'an, Brother Huang..."

After saying three words, the eldest princess couldn't continue, and she cried loudly in her husband's arms.

Li Xin sighed and held her in his arms.

"Don't cry, isn't Your Majesty still fine now?"

The eldest princess cried for a while, and finally finished the last sentence.

She looked up at Li Xin, choked up and said, "Brother Huang...he is not a villain..."

Li Xin couldn't help laughing, and said: "No one said he was a villain. If he was a villain, I would not have entered Wei Palace to work."

To be honest, His Royal Highness Wei Wang's temperament is definitely not a bad person, and he can even be regarded as a slightly cowardly good person, but in life, the ass often determines the head. When His Royal Highness Wei Wang sat on that chair ten years ago, It is destined that he will slowly change.

After the eldest princess cried for a while, Li Xin remembered something and asked her, "Your Majesty's matter... have you talked to the Queen Mother?"
