The size of the wooden bird was just enough to be wrapped in the palm, Dongfang Haoyang slightly bent down, looking at the small wooden bird lying in Tianxiang's hand.The carving is very rough, but every grain and turn is handled very carefully, and the surface is polished and oiled, which shows the care of the sculptor and his love for wooden birds.

"This, this is the time when I fell into the water when I was young, the emperor gave it to me, do you remember?" That day was the first day of my rebirth, and I got the first gift in this world. Sent by the man, Tianxiang was a little stunned, as if the little boy standing in front of him was still the little boy who tried hard to please him, with pure innocence, and great enthusiasm for everything in the world.

Picking up the little wooden bird from Tianxiang's hand, he put it in front of his eyes for a long time, as if he was recalling something, Dongfang Haoyang remained silent.

"Brother Huang, brother," Tianxiang suddenly remembered that Guan Guan always called Shangguan Tang "brother", so she couldn't help changing the title at this time, "Except for the status of the royal family, you and I are just ordinary brothers and sisters. Brother, if we are placed in the homes of ordinary people, Liu Chang Ying is your half brother, which brother will kill each other?"

"Princess..." Liu Changying in the distance was a little moved, his mouth was trembling, and finally he only dared to call out an honorific title.

"Brother, do you know that the Thirteenth Emperor's Uncle died? There are not many relatives left in the world. Are you really going to be a lonely family? Brother, Xiang'er can't be with you forever. You have your own life, so you keep a few more brothers alive for yourself, isn't it good?"

Dongfang Haoyang held the wooden bird tightly, and looked at Liu Changying with obscure eyes.

"Brother, Liu Changying still chose to be loyal to Xiang even when he knew his true identity. Isn't that also the reason why he thought you were his elder brother?"

"Oh, brother," Dongfang Haoyang finally said, and asked Liu Changying, "When did you know your identity?"

"Not long ago." Liu Changying glanced at Liu Tao, who was exhaling more and less inhaling, and said in a low voice.

"You found out not long ago, and you immediately told Sun Qingle the secret?"

"I dare not do things that violate ethics." When Liu Changying answered, his eyes were clear and he looked directly at Dongfang Haoyang.

The hand of the little wooden bird in the palm was a little painful, but Dongfang Haoyang still squeezed it hard and never let go. He looked at the other person's face and said softly: "There is a bit of the shadow of the father when he was young..."

Under Tianxiang's uneasy gaze, Dongfang Haoyang turned to face the officials below, and said: "Liu Tao intends to rebel, and he made up and ruined the reputation of the late emperor. Liu Changying is by no means the son of the late emperor. Now he will be expelled from the palace and sentenced to death for life." Children are not allowed to set foot in the capital! If you dare to violate the order, you will be killed without mercy!"

"Brother Huang..." Tianxiang couldn't believe that her brother Huang was really willing to spare Liu Changying's life.

"Get up, it's cold on the ground." Dongfang Haoyang said softly, and then said, "Sister, it's just this one time, don't go down as an example."

"Your Majesty..." Liu Changying didn't expect that he escaped death so easily, "My minister, no, Cao Min's father..."

"Don't push yourself too hard, Liu Tao is a criminal, I regret letting you go, so hurry up and get out! Don't let me have a chance to regret it!"

"But Your Majesty..." Liu Changying didn't say anything, and the hidden guard pressed his acupuncture points.

"It's so stupid...Come here and throw him out of the palace."

Soon two guards came, one on the left and the other on the right, supported the struggling Liu Changying, and dragged him away.

"Your Majesty, I think it's better to kill him to avoid any hidden danger." Sun Qingle stepped forward and blocked Liu Changying's way.

"I think so too, but, forget it, too many people have been killed today, so let's do some good deeds."

"The emperor really doesn't want to kill?"

Dongfang Haoyang said irritably, "Isn't what I said clear enough?"

"Since the emperor doesn't have the heart to kill, let the minister do it." Sun Qingle pulled out the guard's sword and put it on Liu Changying's neck.

"Sun Qingle, you dare to disobey my will!" Dongfang Haoyang was shocked and angry.

Like a gust of wind, the dark guard slapped Sun Qingle's sword away.

Looking at the sword that fell to the ground, Sun Qingle raised his head expressionlessly, looked at the high emperor, and said, "I swear to be loyal to the emperor to the death, and to Dacheng to the death."

"Then hurry up and get out of the way!"

He raised his hands and clapped, the sound was not loud enough for everyone to hear clearly.

A small figure moved away from the person standing in front of him, and finally stopped beside Sun Qingle, paid respects to Dongfang Haoyang, and shouted in an immature voice: "My brother Chen also pays his respects to the emperor."

Dongfang Haoyang was taken aback, his voice almost changed, "Dongfang Chenyi! Aren't you in Jincheng? You dare to come to Beijing without my call!"

The 12-year-old boy nervously looked at the taller man beside him. He was also forced to come to the capital, and he couldn't answer the words of the Ninth Five-Year Lord.

"Hedong King has already saluted the emperor, and after that, Hedong King will soon become the new emperor of Dacheng Kingdom, and there is no need to salute anyone." When Sun Qingle said, ignoring all the exclamations from the surroundings.

"Okay, okay, okay, it turns out that what Sun Aiqing wanted to do was the oriole." Dongfang Haoyang laughed.

Li Zhaoting looked at Sun Qingle, pointed at him and said, "You actually have other plans? Did you do it on purpose when you went to investigate the Yellow River stone carvings with Chang Ying? Just to take the opportunity to find the King of Hedong?"

"Thank you, my Majesty, for your trust. Thank you, Prime Minister Liu, for your trust. Otherwise, Sun would have no excuse to go out of Beijing, let alone go to Jincheng to find the King of Hedong." Tao bowed, "In order for the King of Hedong to ascend to the throne in a legitimate way, I need to clean up the Xuanzheng Hall. I hope the emperor will understand. This is a matter of our Dacheng Kingdom, so it is not easy for outsiders to watch the excitement."

As soon as Sun Qingle's words fell, the soldiers began to drag the Liju people on the ground, no matter whether they were alive or dead.When there were only a group of officials lying limp on the ground in front of the palace gate, Sun Qingle put his hands behind his back and looked up at the unmoved emperor standing on the steps.

"Scholar Sun, do you know why I recruited all officials to Xuanzheng Hall?" Dongfang Haoyang asked aloud.

"Probably because the space outside the Xuanzheng Hall is large enough to accommodate ten thousand people, so that it is convenient for the emperor to catch these rebellious officials and thieves." Sun Qingle replied indifferently.

"That's right, that's not right." Dongfang Haoyang smiled, "Except for the Xuanzheng Hall, which is wide enough, look, there are walls and doors all around."

================================================== =====================

Leaving all the aftermath work of the princess mansion to Yue Su, Feng Suzhen swallowed the wound medicine given by Guan Guan, and led Ma Tong Guan Guan out without stopping.Because Guan Guan said that to lift the scourge, one must go to Yuqing Lake. The legend of that lake is half-truth, but it is the dragon vein of Dacheng Kingdom. With a powerful aura as a cover, it is more effective to lift the scourge.

As soon as she left the gate of the Princess Mansion, Feng Suzhen saw Mei Zhu running towards her with the baby in her arms.

"Sister... Consort!" Seeing that there was another person beside Feng Suzhen whom Mei Zhu didn't recognize, so she changed her name to something that couldn't go wrong.

"Plum Bamboo! Why are you here?" Feng Suzhen hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

Mei Zhu glanced at the brocade-clothed woman who was standing still at the gate, and said in a low voice: "The emperor let me out, and the emperor also gave me an imperial decree, asking me to go to the prison to take away my husband and leave the capital. I I want to see you before I leave, so I came to the Princess Mansion first."

"Why is the emperor willing to let you go?" Feng Suzhen was a little confused about the emperor's attitude.

Mei Zhu lowered her head, touched the face of the sleeping baby in her arms, shook her head, and said: "I don't know, he didn't come to see me, he just got a message from someone with an imperial decree."

Feng Suzhen couldn't figure it out, and she was thinking about the palace, and said to Mei Zhu: "Since the emperor is willing to let you go, it's not too late, you hurry to save Brother Zhang."

"I don't know when I will see you again after this farewell..." Mei Zhu's eyes were full of reluctance.

Reaching out to brush the messy hair beside Mei Zhu's cheek, Feng Suzhen smiled lightly: "Father is in Shi'an County, if there is a destiny, we will meet there."

With the most brilliant smile, Mei Zhu nodded vigorously.

There is still a chance to see you again. The mountains are high and the water is far away. I also want to see the young lady.

Looking at the back of Meizhu going away, Feng Suzhen got on the horse, everything is almost over, and there will be a time for them to reunite.

Standing by the deep black lake, from the moment the horses ran straight through the palace gate to when no one came to arrest them, Feng Suzhen knew that the situation must be urgent for Tianxiang, otherwise how could she indulge them so recklessly?

"Sister Suzhen, are you ready? Even though it's summer, the lake is still very cold." Guan Guan smiled at Feng Suzhen.

Feng Suzhen stretched out her hand to take off her outer robe, and said as she took it off, "As long as you can recover your martial arts, the cold is nothing."

"Liju's Yuqing Lake is actually just a name, in order to gain luck for Dacheng," Guan Guan also began to take off his outer shirt, "It's such a small place, and it has been surrendered to Dacheng for hundreds of years, but every one of them has its own. Wanting to rule the Central Plains, the gnats shake the big tree, it's so pitiful that it makes people want to laugh."

Feng Suzhen paused for a moment, and asked, "Shangguan Tang's idea of ​​making Dacheng again?"

"Which monarch has never fought? It's just who really succeeded? Wasted so many lives." Guan Guan quickly got off, staring directly at the slightly tumbling lake in front of him, and walked slowly into the lake .

Seeing Guan Guan walking towards the lake, Feng Suzhen quickened the speed of undressing and put all doubts behind her.

"Sister, do you still remember the formulas I taught you? Start reciting after Rushui." Guan Guan turned his head and said to Feng Suzhen. The moment he saw the other party's body, he couldn't help laughing, "Brother Shaomin, you have such a good figure." , I don’t want to return you to Sister Tianxiang.”

For Tianxiang, Feng Suzhen can occasionally make jokes, sometimes making the other party shy and avoid.When facing people other than Tianxiang, Feng Suzhen always felt restrained, but fortunately, all the people she met who were outspoken over the years, except Tianxiang, were also officials, so she would not be embarrassed all the time.

Following Guanguan all the way to the center of the lake, Feng Suzhen was surprised to find that her feet stepped on the solid ground after walking all the way through the soft and muddy ground, but the depth of the lake was by no means lower than that of a person.

As Guan Guan said, the water in the lake is very cold.The surface of the water just dipped above the collarbone, exposing a little shoulder, with the wind blowing, I don't know whether the body in the water is colder, or the skin on the water feels colder.

"Sister, close your eyes from now on. No matter what you hear or feel, don't open your eyes. Otherwise, you will no longer be able to remember everything, and you may lose more." Change the meaning of the previous teasing.

Without asking further, Feng Suzhen nodded and closed her eyes obediently.

A long moan came from my ear, it was a tonal language that Feng Suzhen had never heard before.Sometimes it looks like rain and fog, sprinkled on the leaves; sometimes it looks like a girl caressing the strings, full of love.After the tenderness, the voice soared into the sky, erratic and meandering, wanting to send out and receive, it is no longer like coming to the world.

With the continuous sound of chanting, Feng Suzhen felt the change of the water flow.The water surrounding her body seemed to come alive, lingering lingeringly around her body, as if she wanted to get close, but didn't seem to dare to get close.

The body is sinking slowly, but I don't feel short of breath.The soft water wrapped Feng Suzhen's whole body carefully.The sound of Guan Guan's chanting gradually became inaudible, and there was a subtle voice flowing in my ears, which seemed rough and ethereal, seemed to come to the sky and seemed to stick in front of my face.

"Feng Suzhen, do you want to restore everything?" A voice that couldn't tell the difference between male and female, and couldn't tell the direction, asked gently.

"Think." Unable to speak, Feng Suzhen could only answer in her heart.

Then, a dazzling light burst out in front of Feng Suzhen's eyes, and then it all dissipated at the bottom of the lake.
