Try to rebel today

The twelfth day of the first lunar month is the day of the Dachaohui.

For the first time in the new year, on a large scale, the emperor sits high, hundreds of officials worship, the most solemn occasion, the most glorious momentum, all the discussions and announcements are important events of the whole country, and no one dares not to pay attention to them.

At four o'clock, the houses of the officials in the city were already brightly lit. The servants who were closer to the palace began to serve meals to the masters. Those who were further away, the masters had finished their breakfast and were ready to go out.

They had to rush to the gate of the palace at the fifth watch and wait for the emperor to go to court.

The First Prince's Mansion is built just outside the imperial palace, one street away, and a stick of incense can be reached by car. If you want to go to court, you don't need to be in such a hurry.

But today the eldest prince is in a particularly good mood.

He went to bed early last night, and the decoction added calming ingredients, so he had a good night's sleep. He was very energetic, and he didn't need someone to wake him up. He would wake up by himself at some point.

After washing, combing hair, changing clothes, and having breakfast, a series of actions are completed, and it is still far away from the fifth watch.

"Your Highness, shall we set off now?"

Seeing that everything was ready, the chief followed up and asked questions.

"No," the eldest prince thought for a while, then turned his feet in the same direction, "Go to the study."

Now that you have made up your mind to come to a big one and have a surprise, it is better to go early than to go coincidentally.The extra time is just enough for him to go to the study to read the plan file twice more...

At that time, the performance at the court meeting will definitely be more perfect!

The fourth prince's thinking is exactly the same as that of the first prince.

He also got up early, cleaned up energetically, changed his pace suddenly before going out, went back to his room and studied the dossier plan a few more times, seeing that the time was about the same, and then went out to the palace in a mighty way—

As a matter of course, at the intersection, I bumped into the First Prince who came out at about the same time.

"The eldest prince is behind you, Your Highness Fourth, let's—"

"Today is the Grand Court Meeting. He is the big one and I am the young one. Give him this face and let's avoid it!"

The fourth prince glared at the car on the side with a sullen face, and slammed the curtain of the car hard.

If it weren't for something important today...

Hold your ass!

In front of the palace gate, the officials almost rolled their eyes as they watched the eldest prince and the fourth prince driving hand in hand.

How could these two come to court!

Isn't it that he is dying of illness, lying at home unable to get up, and has no consciousness at all!

And this distance...

It's so close, isn't it a demon?

The fourth prince was willing to let the eldest prince take the lead, so he didn't fight or make trouble?The eldest prince didn't deliberately provoke, and then showed his benevolence and virtue?

Is the sun coming out from the west today?

All the ministers couldn't help but looked up to the sun.

It's a pity that it's too early, the sky is a little bright, but the sun hasn't come out yet.

The car stopped, and the eldest prince and the fourth prince got out of the car and walked towards the gate of the palace.

All the ministers returned to their senses and saluted quickly.

The current situation in the court, as the emperor's own son, Prince Chen is the only one who is favored by the emperor, and he heard that he was left by the emperor to rest in the palace last night, and today he came directly to the court with the emperor... never had.However, although the eldest prince and the four princes killed each other, they displeased the emperor, and they were seriously ill at home. They haven't seen anyone for more than ten days, but the title of prince on their heads has not been taken back. They are still princes now, and all the privileges are still there. Yes, you must salute and say hello.

But the other party behaved very strangely.

The eldest prince smiled at him, his expression was friendly, he had always had this character, but what about the fourth prince?

She didn't look so mean and hurt others anymore, she still had a smile on her lips, and she was standing so close to the First Prince, yet she didn't hate each other!

Is this going to change!

The ministers lowered their heads one after another, suppressing all the emotional changes in their hearts.

At the third quarter of Yin time, the drums and music sounded together, and the whip was cleared to open the way. The emperor wore a dragon robe and a crown, surrounded by his servants, and sat in front of the court.

Prince Chen, standing beside him, came slowly with a smile on his face.

All the officials knelt down to greet each other: "Long live the emperor, long live, long live!"

Emperor Chu fluttered his sleeves, and sat down on the high dragon chair with the same imposing manner: "Everyone is flat!"

Baiguan thank you again and stand up.

During this process, the eldest prince and the fourth prince had the highest status among the officials present because of their status as princes. They entered the hall to salute, and naturally the two of them stood at the front.

Coming here with Emperor Chu, like other servants, Prince Chen, who does not need to kneel, saw these two abrupt existences at a glance, his pupils narrowed suddenly, and the tip of his tongue almost bleeds.

Why are these two people here!

Didn't he say he was dying!

After going to the court meeting, I will see you soon, what else needs to be endured?The eldest prince and the fourth prince turned their heads almost at the same time, and greeted Prince Chen.

The eldest prince, as always, smiled with a particularly profound meaning.

The fourth prince smiled darkly, and quietly compared his neck with his hands.

Prince Chen: ...

How dare these two people provoke him!

If it wasn't for the sudden rise to power, for the sake of his own image, if it wasn't for these two guys who were seriously injured and dying, there would be no threat to him right away, how could he condone this situation, and not hurry to take off the prince titles of these two guys?

He was merciful, but these two guys didn't appreciate it, dare to provoke him?

court death!

Emperor Chu slowly narrowed his eyes.

He was in a similar mood to Prince Chen who was furious below, and he was also surprised how these two people suddenly appeared at the court meeting, but after all, he has been emperor for so many years, and his heart and forbearance are extraordinary.

He didn't come up directly like Prince Chen expected, and asked why these two people were here. This would increase the pride of the other party. He just pretended not to see it, and discussed the matter according to the procedure... The other party has a purpose, can't help it, and sooner or later jump out.

And even if they can stand here well, these two are just recovering from a serious illness, so they won't survive for long!

Unfortunately, Emperor Chu made a wrong estimate this time.

The eldest prince and the fourth prince had already made various preparations. They stood quietly in the court hall, neither in a hurry nor impatient, and nodded frequently when listening to political affairs, occasionally expressing some of their own insights.The rules are appropriate, everything is appropriate, the point of entry is sophisticated and precise, and there are no quarrels and troubles!

On the contrary, Prince Chen became more and more angry and uncomfortable!

He has been acting for so long, and sometimes he is in a hurry. Compared with these two people, he is simply a rookie!

What is the father doing, why didn't these two guys be punished for their crimes!

……

The atmosphere in the court was awkward, and when all kinds of swords were on the verge of breaking out, Zhou Yao and Feng Jiang came to the nobleman's teahouse outside Gongmen Street.

Here, Wang Jia is waiting for them.

"Why are you two here now? Hurry up, sit down, the tea is getting cold! This is a teahouse for noble people, with a good location and a good price, specially for noble people. A pot of tea costs three liang of silver, so expensive, you guys But you can’t even taste the hot ones, what a pity!”

Wang Jia hurriedly pulled the two people to sit, pointed at the tea, and introduced a lot of tea, insisting that Zhou Yao and Feng Jiang drink it well, taste it, and talk about the after-use before letting go.

"So it's not because of my bad tongue, this tea is really bad."

Wang Jia sighed, a little disappointed: "Such a tea house that only earns money from the location can still maintain its business... Tsk."

"Forget about the tea, let's get down to business," Feng Jiang pointed his chin in the direction of the palace, "What's going on inside?"

Wang Jia gave him a white look: "It's because I haven't returned to the main show after tossing for a long time, and I'm bored, so I want to drink tea..."

Zhou Yao and Feng Jiang wanted to watch the grand court meeting today, but unfortunately their identities were wrong and they couldn't go in to watch.After jumping up and down in Chu State for so long, it's not like they couldn't find a way to inquire about the news, but after all, the location was the imperial palace, so it was a bit tortuous.

Adding Wang Jia, it's different.

This kid is small in stature, but his ability should not be underestimated. He is a thief in the Jianghu, and he is also a well-deserved gossip king. His sources of information can be said to be all over the entire capital, and the palace...isn't it also in the capital?

Once the channels of the two sides converge, the liveliness of the scene will no longer be visible, and there will be no problem with the real-time broadcast.

Wang Jia told the news one by one.

After Zhou Yao listened, he smiled and said, "Not to mention anything else, our Emperor Chu is quite tolerant."

"That's right! If he can bear it, how can he serve so many old men and coax so many concubines? Every family is more powerful than him, and he still can't have a son, but it is the one who sits on the dragon chair in the end. He, he has the ability!"

Wang Jia slurped the sweet soup that the teahouse had forced to give her, her face puffed up, and her voice was very sarcastic.

Just as he was talking, there was a knock on the door of the box, and a head wearing a little hat appeared.

The forehead is very big, the eyes are round, and it looks simple and honest, but in fact it is faintly clever.

It wasn't too late for Wang Jia's sweet soup, and he didn't peel the melon seeds, so he jumped up from his seat, using his lightness kung fu, and swished to the door, and put his ears in front of the man.

After a few breaths, the man left, and Wang Jia returned to the seat with her hands behind her back. She smiled proudly and mysteriously, looked at Feng Jiang, and then at Zhou Yao, her face was full of: Come and ask me!

Feng Jiang snorted and turned his head.

Just don't ask, I'll suffocate you!

Wang Jia glared at him angrily.

Zhou Yao was more face-saving and said with a smile: "But there is news?"

Wang Jia immediately sat next to Zhou Yao, hugged his arm, and leaned against him stickingly: "Either way, our brother Yao is transparent! I like you the most!"

"Don't like me anymore," Zhou Yao knocked on Wang Jia's forehead, "Tell me something."

"Hey..." Wang Jia smiled, his eyes were crooked, his back molars were almost exposed, and he danced, "It's up!"

……

in the hall.

After the important event was over, the eldest prince and the fourth prince were able to hold on, calm and quiet.

No way, even in order to keep the face of the emperor, Emperor Chu had to ask a few questions: "Chu Liu, Chu Yi, you are not at home to recuperate, but you have come to court, but your body has fully recovered?"

The eldest prince bowed his hands in salute, with a serious expression on his face: "Return to father, my son is not recovering from his injuries, the imperial doctor has something to say, don't think too much, the most important thing is to stay in bed, otherwise it may affect the life expectancy. My son obeyed the doctor's orders." I just woke up yesterday and happened to hear something about the rise and fall of our Chu Kingdom—I was so worried and tossing and turning that I had to use a strange medicine that had been stored in the mansion for many years to make my son alive , so that the servants can come to court."

Prince Chen's eyes could almost shoot fire.

One father, one son, and one son, are you the emperor's own? How dare you say that!

The eldest prince noticed it and returned a calm smile.

Everyone knows that he has no blood relationship with the emperor, but he was selected, made a prince, and got the imperial jade certificate. One day he is not withdrawn, and one day he is the prince, so he has to be called that!

It's not that Emperor Chu couldn't see the eyebrows and eyes of the two.

He didn't want to hear what the First Prince had to say, but...

About the rise and fall of Chu?

It's hard not to care.

Even if he doesn't care, all the court officials will care.

"What...is related to the rise and fall of Chu, but I don't know about it?"

"It's because someone deceived and concealed it and deliberately covered it up that Father didn't know about it."

The eldest prince's expression suddenly changed, and he pointed at Prince Chen: "Prince Chen colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country, and ceded the border territory of our Chu State with the party members, and received tens of thousands of food, cloth and military funds, in exchange for the party members to help him in his private affairs!"

"Yesterday, under the bright sky and under the eyes of everyone, Prince Chen met with that party member, and quarreled over a disagreement. Everyone present heard all kinds of bargaining. This matter is no longer a secret among the government and the public, and among the people!"

"Father, you don't know, it's because Prince Chen is very powerful. If a threat is released, others dare not risk their lives to speak out to you, and once the news leaks, they have already been killed by Prince Chen before they come to you. Already!"

"Prince Chen is just a little prince now. He has dared to use this method to eliminate dissidents before he was crowned prince. If he becomes king in the future, it will definitely not be a blessing for our Chu country. Pushed out by him!"

"Others don't dare to speak up and don't pay attention to it, but my son can't."

"Although my son is not happy with his father, he can be a prince for a day, and he will shoulder the responsibilities of a prince for a day. He must be worthy of the people of the world, the court officials, his own conscience, and his father's trust!"

The eldest prince suddenly fell to his knees and slammed his head on the ground: "My minister risked his life to remonstrate, remove the title of Prince Chen, and demote him to a commoner!"
