The host is not good at acting

Chapter 74, His Majesty's courtiers are too tired ([-])

"Young Master, what do you want to see?" Seeing that Xia Zhitong and Yan Qiu were of extraordinary status, the shopkeeper came over to greet them as soon as they entered.

"Just take a look!" Xia Zhitong said, and then asked, "I heard that you have an ancient book here? I have always been interested in those things. If there are any, I will take them out and have a look!"

Ancient books are no more than ordinary antiques, and their value is beyond the reach of ordinary people.But the shopkeeper looked at Xia Zhitong and felt that she must be either rich or noble, so he said, "My lord, please wait a moment."

"What's the matter with you shopkeeper?" The servant next to Xia Zexuan was unconvinced, "Obviously I came here first, and I also asked you for that ancient book, why did you tell me no?"

"My little brother, those ancient books are not affordable for ordinary people. If you really like them, I have some imitations here. Would you like to have a look?"

"Why do you look down on people, the shopkeeper? I'm afraid I will scare you to death if I tell you the identity of my young master. Why do you think we can't afford a broken book?" What about this ancient book!"

Xia Zhitong laughed lightly, but the boy was furious: "Who are you, are you making fun of our young master?"

Xia Zhitong quickly shook his head and said, "I didn't mean that. I just didn't expect that young man outside to be a nobleman."

"Since you know, let's give that ancient book to my young master!" Seeing that Xia Zhitong is quite sensible, the young man thought he was kind enough to persuade him, "Looking at you, I don't know whose clothes you are wearing to show off. I can't afford the money for this ancient book, I'm afraid I'll be laughed at."

"Chang Gu, don't be rude!" A clear voice suddenly broke in, and it turned out that it was Xia Zexuan from outside who came in.

At this time, the shopkeeper happened to take out the ancient book. Seeing Xia Zexuan coming in, he didn't know what to do for a while, so he said, "My lords, this is the ancient book. It's just that the ancient book is precious, and only this one Ben."

Xia Zhitong looked at the embarrassing shopkeeper, and said: "Shopkeeper, I won't embarrass you anymore. This young master is more suitable for this ancient book than me at first glance, so just let him."

After Xia Zexuan came in, he recognized Xia Zhitong at the second sight. Hearing that she had given up the ancient book to him while he was in a daze, he subconsciously said to her, "Thank you, aunt...my lord."

So Xia Zhitong knew that he had recognized him, so he didn't intend to hide his identity anymore, and said, "In this case, I wonder if I can go to your mansion to appreciate those ancient books of the young master?"

Xia Zexuan was silent for a long time, and said: "Since the young master is willing to gather in the humble house, it would be the best. Zhang Gu, bring the ancient books and lead the way."

Young servant Changgu didn't understand why the matter had developed to this point at all, he could only say that the young master at home and this young master felt sorry for each other, and couldn't help but want to go back to the house and chat about it, so he obediently led the way.

Xia Zexuan was not in good health, so this antique shop was not too far from Prince Yuan's Mansion, and it took about a quarter of an hour to arrive.

Zhang Gu originally thought that Xia Zhitong would be surprised when he saw the signboard of Prince Yuan's Mansion, but "he" went in without hesitation.Did "he" guess the identity of the young master?Or "he" and the young master are old acquaintances?But I have been with the young master since I was a child, and I don't remember that the young master has such a number one friend.

Xia Zexuan led people directly to the study room, and said, "Changgu, go make tea, you want good tea."

"Yes!"

As soon as Chang Gu left, Xia Zexuan immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Xia Zexuan, the son of Prince Yuan, kowtowed to the emperor!"

"My son, please get up!" Xia Zhitong helped Xia Zexuan up, "I knew that my son recognized me."

"I don't know what orders the emperor has when he comes to the minister's house today?" Xia Zexuan's poor health doesn't mean that he has a bad mind.Meeting Xia Zhitong today was no accident.It is very likely that she went there specifically to block herself.

Xia Zhitong said: "Your Majesty, don't be nervous, it's nothing serious for me to come. Logically speaking, I will call you cousin." After Xia Zhitong finished speaking, he casually flipped through Xia Zexuan's unpacked books on the desk, It turned out to be a Buddhist scripture, and there were several written scriptures. "My son is very interested."

Xia Zexuan smiled faintly, and said: "I made the emperor laugh at me. It's just that the subject has been weak since childhood, and my mother thought that copying Buddhist scriptures can pray for blessings, so I got used to copying."

"Self-cultivation is really good." Xia Zhitong put down the Buddhist scriptures, glanced at Yan Qiu, Yan Qiu went out, and even guarded the door for them.

"Your Majesty—?" Xia Zexuan looked at Xia Zhitong puzzled, not knowing what she meant.

"My son, you and I are members of the royal family. Now that the royal family is in trouble, would you like to help me?"

Xia Zexuan hurriedly said: "Your servant should do his best and die. Even if you drag this weak body to fight the enemy, it is not impossible." After all, except for the weak young son, the rest of Prince Yuan's family killed the enemy on the battlefield Weiguo.

"Uncle Wang has guarded the border for many years, and the barbarians dare not enter my Great Xia, so why do you need me to lead troops to fight again?" Xia Zhitong asked with a smile, "What I'm talking about is not external troubles, but internal troubles!"

"Internal problems?"

"Yes!" Xia Zhitong nodded, "Your Majesty should know that the blood of the first emperor was weak, and in the end only my daughter was left. Since I came to the throne, I have acted absurdly, and I have never done a few things that are beneficial to the people. Although this It's my fault, but it's something I have to do. My son knows that my various actions in the palace will spread outside the palace in a short while. The generals and prime ministers seem to be more loyal than each other, but they are more calculating than each other. ..."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, if your Majesty trusts me, I will risk my life to help Your Majesty get rid of these two sycophants, so that Your Majesty's court will be clear." Xia Zexuan expressed his loyalty before he finished listening.Xia Zhitong guessed right, Prince Yuan is full of loyalty.

"Don't worry, my son. I'd better listen to what I have to say. After so many years of management, how many forces these two people have planted in the court and the palace, I can't guess at all. What if the power of Prince Qingyuan's mansion cannot How to remove it?"

"What does His Majesty mean—?"

Xia Zhitong looked at Xia Zexuan firmly, and said: "I want Prince Yuan's mansion to preserve its strength and sit on the mountain to watch the tigers fight. When I and those two people are both defeated, Prince Yuan attacked the capital under the name of 'Qing Jun's side', so that this The country has changed hands!"

As soon as Xia Zhitong finished speaking, Xia Zexuan immediately knelt down on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, my subjects and my father dare not do such a rebellious thing. Once the Emperor is the Emperor, he will always be the Emperor, and the ministers will always be loyal to His Majesty. Will not give birth to disobedience."

"Cousin, you are confused!" Xia Zhitong said, "if this continues, not only will the country change hands, but even the dynasty will change. How can the world of my Xia family be let into the hands of his surname. Uncle Wang is the younger brother of the emperor , this world is in the hands of Uncle Wang and you, even the emperor will not blame me. I have made up my mind, and what I need is the cooperation of my son and Uncle Wang, otherwise I will still go my own way, and in the end I can only end up dead. The place of burial, how will our royal family of the summer family deal with themselves?"

"..." Xia Zexuan was silent for a long time, and said, "Your Majesty, this matter is very important. Please think it over carefully, and let your servant discuss it with father."

"This is natural. Uncle Wang must make preparations early. Once the incident happens, he can immediately send troops back to Beijing to seize the capital."

After saying this, while Xia Zexuan was thinking, Xia Zhitong called Yan Qiu in again, and handed the box in Yan Qiu's hand to Xia Zexuan: "Your Majesty, there is no need to doubt what I mean. It is equivalent to a gold medal for avoiding death. I sincerely want to entrust the world to Uncle Wang and the prince, and I also sincerely want to return the world to a wise king."

After Xia Zexuan finished the box, he felt that the responsibility was very heavy for a while, but in the end, he didn't dare to give Xia Zhitong a guarantee.

......

On the way back to the palace, Yan Qiu asked: "How are you doing?"

Xia Zhitong shook his head helplessly, and said: "Xia Zexuan dare not agree to me. I don't know whether to be happy or depressed to have such a loyal subject. But I threatened him. I believe he will let go after weighing the pros and cons with Prince Yuan." Those who chose to protect the royal family because of their own foolish loyalty."

"That's good! Otherwise, wouldn't we be busy?"

......

Xia Zhitong guessed right. A month later, Xia Zexuan entered the palace to ask for an interview and brought good news. Prince Yuan's Mansion will cooperate with her in all actions. If it is really at a critical point, they will rebel and return the world to the royal family.

After receiving this reassuring news, Xia Zhitong started his own actions.In terms of scheming, Xia Zhitong knew that she was not as good as Cheng Yuan and Xie Xianshi, two old foxes, but she changed her core, which made the two old foxes not sure what she was thinking. So they also suffered a lot from Xia Zhitong.

Xie Xianshi had 30 troops in his hands, Xia Zhitong didn't dare to touch him for a while.After all, Xia Zhitong knows the cruelty of war, and it is better to resolve things peacefully, so that the common people can suffer less oppression.

Therefore, the first thing Xia Zhitong had to deal with was the prime minister's power, and the first to bear the brunt was Cheng Feimu.

In the first month of the third year of Empress Heyun in the Xia Dynasty, Cheng Feimu, the son of the prime minister, blatantly contradicted the empress and was given poisonous wine. Prison; in March, the prime minister once again united with the courtiers, hoping to rehabilitate the youngest son, was demoted to three ranks, and lost his position; in December, the general Xie Xianshi interceded for the former prime minister, and had a dispute with the empress, who did not accept Xie Xian He was not punished, and the matter ended without a problem...

Xianyuan Palace, now almost became Xia Zhitong's permanent residence.Ever since Xie Xianshi pleaded for Cheng Yuan, the last face between her and the General's Mansion has been torn apart, and she no longer has to play tricks with Xie Yunyu.

"I really didn't expect that old fox Xie Xianshi would help his arch-rival!" Xia Zhitong hugged Yan Qiu tightly, as if he wanted to comfort her in her arms, "But no matter what he thinks, now the court The wind in the middle is in his favor. The emperor most taboo is a general who has the words of a minister."

Yan Qiu lightly patted Xia Zhitong's arm, and said, "Why are you worried? Xie Xianshi has 30 soldiers in his hand, and Prince Yuan has more than 30 soldiers." Since reaching a consensus, Prince Yuan has been Recruiting soldiers and horses without being discovered, there may be more than 50 soldiers and horses now.

Xia Zhitong nodded, and said: "All I can do now is delay, at least give Prince Yuan time to prepare. Of course, 50 soldiers and horses cannot all return to the capital, at least 20 soldiers and horses must be left to guard the border. 30 soldiers and horses want to If you want to return to Beijing quietly, it will definitely not work."

Xia Zhitong was very sad, so sad that her hair was about to fall out, and she didn't know what to do.Xia Zhitong, who was very sad, disguised herself and went out of the palace again.

Xia Zexuan is still the only left-behind child in Prince Yuan's Mansion, but this left-behind child has given Xia Zhitong a lot of ideas to attack the prime minister's faction. His brain is so good, he must use it more.

"Your Majesty is worried about this?" Xia Zexuan chuckled a few times, "Then I would like to congratulate Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about your father's troops. Not long ago, your father received Xie Xianshi's letter, and his The envoys. The inside and outside of the words are nothing more than wanting to cooperate with the father and turn against your majesty together."

Xia Zhitong's eyes lit up, and he said: "It seems that I have a lot of foresight. That's just right, Uncle Wang took this opportunity to move the troops to the capital, and took Xie Xianshi, the old fox, when he couldn't react. "

"Your Majesty, my father said that if there is another choice, he will still be loyal to His Majesty."

"Hahaha!" Xia Zhitong laughed a few times, "Thank you for my uncle Wang's kindness. It's just that I can't be a wise king after all. The wise man in my heart is my cousin, I hope you don't let me down. "

Xia Zexuan was silent for a while, and looked at Xia Zhitong without hesitation, his eyes were full of trust, as if to reassure Xia Zhitong.

......

On June [-]rd of the fourth year of Empress Heyun, the general led [-] soldiers and horses to force the palace.The empress ordered all the forbidden troops to retreat instead of defending, and the army drove straight in, occupying the entire palace.

At the same time, Prince Yuan led 30 soldiers to protect the imperial city and the empress, and surrounded the palace with an army of [-].At this time, a very strange situation was formed, General Xie Xianshi did not dare to act rashly, Prince Yuan and Prince Yuan's son did not dare to act rashly either.

On June [-]th, the Empress set fire to the Zhenghe Palace and died in love with Concubine Yan. Xie Xianshi was convicted of treason and gave Prince Yuan a reason to kill.

On June [-]th, after three days of bloody fighting, it was actually a one-sided massacre. The general Xie Xianshi was killed, and the chaos in the imperial city was broken.It's just that Empress Heyun didn't leave any heirs until her death. For a while, the Xia Dynasty had no ruler, and Prince Yuan had the highest voice to ascend to the throne.But even so, Prince Yuan's ascension to the throne is not justified.

On June [-]th, Xia Zexuan, the eldest son of Prince Yuan, took out the handwritten letter of Empress Heyun, on which he wrote "Since I am dead, I will pass on the title of Prince Yuan in the Xia Dynasty, and make the son of Prince Yuan the crown prince." , and justifiably.

......

When setting the fire, Xia Zhitong was a little scared.

"Yan Xiaoqiu, you have to be more reliable for a while. If you say go, we will fly away in a 'swoosh'. Don't stay here to reminisce. Otherwise, I will be burned."

"Don't worry, I know you are prone to accidents with a mortal body!" Yan Qiu just smiled, of course she had to count the time.If something happened to Xia Zhitong, wouldn't it be her who felt distressed?

After getting an affirmative answer, Xia Zhitong poured the kerosene he had prepared all over the room, put two imitation dolls on the bed, and threw the candle down.

The moment the fire burned up, what Xia Zhitong saw was not red light, but the familiar white light, and Yan Qiu was faster than ever this time.

After leaving this world, Xia Zhitong asked: "Where are we going next?"

"Don't you want to eat delicious food? I have accepted a mission from a good place, let's go now!"

"Okay!"

From now on, no matter which world they are in, they will always be together, staying together for more than a lifetime, eating together, playing together, and seeing every scene in every world together.

The author has something to say:

I really don’t know how to write tactics. These could have been expanded and written for another [-] words, but after the expansion, it seemed that I thought these would be child’s play, so I stopped writing.Let's just guess, Xia Zhitong and Xia Zexuan teamed up to deal with the prime minister first, and then the prime minister's power was captured by the general, and the general became very difficult to deal with, but this general wanted to cooperate with Xia Zexuan's father just to be on the safe side, so he almost lured the wolf into the house In the end, it was calculated by Xia Zhitong and Xia Zexuan.Xia Zhitong and Yan Qiu fled to death, the world will be big in the future, and every world will be their home, because they have each other.
