A drop of ink landed on the white paper, quickly blurring into a circle the size of a copper plate.

The child in the dragon suit in front of the desk stared forward blankly.Outside the octagonal carved window, a young woman is standing in front of the peach blossom tree, lowering her head and sniffing, the red pollen dimples complement each other.

The child was confused: "You... sister, where are you from?" He looked out, "Where are the guards outside?"

The woman admired the peach blossoms for a moment, and then she turned her attention to the child: "Are you Yuan Kun's young son?"

Yuan Kun blinked.

This title has not been mentioned for a long time.Since he was brought here, people here called him "Prince".

Holding his identity, he gently placed the pen on the pen holder, and after a long while, he nodded.

He was still thinking about the purpose of the woman who suddenly appeared, and there was a clear applause in front of him.

"That's good, I've found you." The woman said happily, "Let's go."

As soon as the voice fell, Yuan Kun's eyes darkened under a white cloth hood that looked like a bed sheet, and his feet lightened, as if flying through the clouds.

After a cup of tea, there was suddenly the sound of hurried footsteps outside the courtyard.

The guards in bright armor broke into the courtyard with a long gun in their hands. Looking at the empty room, their expressions changed drastically.

At another moment, the Kaiping Palace, which is not much smaller than the Xijing Palace, suddenly opened its middle door, and teams of knights with javelins and crossbows, riding tall horses, roared past the market. Flying dogs jumped, and many pedestrians who couldn't dodge were kicked down and trampled by these knights, and their mourning and moaning suddenly resounded through the street.

In a certain market close to the palace, a Pian Pianjia was standing in front of a small stall looking at hairpins with his little sister on his shoulders.

The peddler at the back of the stall was trembling with fear from the cavalry, but this noble gentleman was not afraid. He bought some small and cute jewelry in peace, paid for the silver, and looked at it in the sun while walking, enjoying the state of appreciation. It's not like buying things for my sister, but like buying things for myself.

This Mr. Pian Pianjia is of course the woman who broke into the Kaiping Hou Mansion before, and the little girl on her shoulder is obviously Yuan Kun in disguise.

Several months of hostage life made Yuan Kun cautious.He didn't resist being dressed as a girl, and he didn't call for help when he saw cavalrymen.It wasn't until those people ran away from the side that they mumbled and asked, "Who are you... What are you going to do? Where are you taking me?"

The woman's smile stretched out, her voice was slow, with the beauty of the breeze: "I am here to save you. I not only want to save you, but also the son of Yuanfeng in the hands of Wan Shihou. There are also some children who are as old as you who stay in Xijing. I will take you to a place where you can continue to study and practice martial arts, where no one can break in, that is the fairy valley, a blessed place on earth."

Yuan Kun was very surprised: "You still want to go to the territory of Marquis Wan Shi and Marquis Jian Guo! You are not afraid that they will set a trap and capture you!"

The woman smiled back: "The five princes are suspicious of each other, and when the royal blood is found out from each other's territory, I have already brought you to the fairy valley."

While she was talking, her face was facing the scorching sun, and Yuan Kun couldn't tell who was more proud, the sun or her.

Yuan Kun couldn't help himself, and asked again: "Who are you?"

"Luoxinzhai." She rolled her eyes, and the light fell into her pupils, "Ji Zejun."

The wild wind blows over the yellow sand, over the mountains, over the grasslands, and finally stays in front of the towering city walls and scale-matched houses.

Infighting among the aristocratic family is in full swing, the Buddhist kingdom is deeply surrounded by Tantric sects and Sui Palace, and Daqing is not without its own turmoil.

After the death of Emperor Xuande in Jieyuan, there was another chaos in Xijing.Now that the big celebration is in full swing, the people are in dire straits.Even the capital of Daqing, Xijing, which prides itself on being "the head of the secluded land", is now in a depressed market and desolate doors. It seems that the people in the city are living in a state of depression and panic.

The city within the city belongs to the palace of the Yuan family. The queen stands in the Pearl Mirror Hall and looks at the Mirror Hall through the window.

After a few months, the ruins were exposed to the wind and sun, weeds grew, and birds fell. Then, after a heavy rain, the sand flowed, and the unbroken glazed tiles shone brightly like broken gold in the sunshine after the rain. , the broken walls and ruins have gone through many years, and it seems that there is also a third of the years of tranquility.

The sun is so nice.

The queen thought unexpectedly.

Even though the two palaces are so far apart, can the Palace of Mirrors block the sunlight from the Palace of Pearl Mirrors?

"Ma'am." A voice called from behind.

The queen woke up from her contemplation. She glanced sideways and saw her confidant aunt standing a few steps away with her arms folded.

This aunt was about forty, dressed in a blue dress, her face was ordinary and unadorned.

She calmed down and said: "The four princes have arrived, Jian Guohou is in Taiji Palace, talking to the other four princes."

The queen nodded and turned outwards, the direction was Tai Chi Palace.

The Taiji Palace is a palace from the former dynasty that survived with great difficulty. It was originally a place for sacrifices in the palace. Because of its large size and the original Mingjing Palace, the original meeting place has long been in ruins, the Queen decided to design it as the A new meeting place.

Now Wu Hou is sitting in this unfamiliar place, looking at each other's faces.

This meeting meeting was initiated by Jian Guohou.

After being overly shocked by Jian Guohou, as soon as he returned to Xijing, he used the title of "Dai Tian Jian Guo". He wanted to use his clan blood to become the well-deserved regent of Jian Guo, but he didn't want the other four princes to have other ideas. In a great chaos, Kaiping Hou Wanshihou snatched the two youngest sons of the royal family, and Fengtianhou and Chengyunhou also returned to fiefdoms instead of obeying the imperial edict.

Jian Guohou naturally leads troops to attack, but unfortunately although he occupies the heart of Xijing and has a strong army, the other four princes are also in the fiefdom for a long time, and they are not easy to fight.Over time, various forces in Xijing that had not been devastated changed one after another, and began to infiltrate and weaken Jian Guohou's control over military power.After a long time, Jian Guohou naturally realized that he decided to deal with the matters within the territory first, so there was this day's five-hour gathering.

For the reunion on this day, Jian Guohou made up his mind and allowed the four princes to bring thousands of troops to gather outside the palace gate, and tens of thousands of horses to stop outside the city gate. If something happens to the four princes, these troops will flatten Xijing .In this way, everyone has scruples. Compared with the party, it can start peacefully and end peacefully.

However, in a few months, several people have changed from fellow ministers to life and death opponents. They looked at each other, each sighing.

After sighing, the four princes all looked at Jian Guohou sitting on the top left.

Jian Guohou said in a deep voice: "Everyone used to be brothers and ministers at the same time. Now that Daqing is in turmoil, we can no longer fight among ourselves."

Kai Pinghou said with a smile: "I have said that I used to be brothers, but unfortunately there is a brother who doesn't know which string is missing in his head and wants to be the king of all brothers. If there is a glass of wine in front of him," he suddenly asked Wan Shihou, "You Do you want to sit and drink, or kneel to drink?"

Wan Shihou and Kaipinghou sang together: "Of course you drink while sitting down. I'm afraid it's a fool who wants to drink while kneeling?"

Fengtian Chengyun second time, the old god is there, his eyes are slightly lowered, and he is silent.

Instead, Jian Guohou said with a smile: "Brothers misunderstood me a lot! It was just a villain's mischief that day. I just expressed my determination to die for the Daqing Sheji in the mansion, but somehow it spread and became 'On behalf of the heavens and founding the country', it is widely spread that I have ambitions to be a regency, alas, just adding two words, it turns our brothers against each other, and the people have suffered a lot of wars for no reason."

He paused, and then said: "Now that villain has been beheaded by me. But after all, I have not checked. I have prepared gifts, and when this party is over, I will send people to the back covers of the brothers." ..."

Before he finished speaking, a voice came from outside the Taiji Palace to greet the queen.

Jian Guohou was surprised that the empress would come here at this time, but he didn't let anyone stop him, instead he loudly invited the empress to come in.

Now in the Taiji Palace, for the sake of harmony, the guards of the five guards surround the palace and are not allowed to enter the palace.

When the queen came in, she didn't bring many people with her, but the aunt in blue who was serving beside her.

Wuhou stood up and said, "I've seen your mother."

The queen nodded: "Five Lords, long time no see, are you all right?"

Wuhou: "It's always not bad, thank you for your concern."

Marquis Jianguo regards himself as an orthodox clan. Before becoming regent, he naturally had to maintain respect for the royal family. In addition, the queen has always been very quiet, and he also abides by his duties as a courtier on the surface: "Since the empress is here, I think she is concerned about the government. I will ask the guards to furnish the seats, and ask the empress to sit quietly and listen."

The queen walked all the way to the Marquis Jian Guo, and said with a slight smile, "I live in a secluded harem, so I don't know too much about government affairs. Just talk to the five marquises. But..."

Jian Guohou: "But?"

The queen said softly: "However, the left is the most respected in my court. Could it be that the Marquis of the State Council has not participated in the small court councils in the past, and I don't know that the upper left head is His Majesty's position?"

After she finished speaking, the blue-clothed aunt beside her suddenly jumped up, holding a golden hammer and hammering Jian Guohou's head!

Jian Guohou was obviously not weak in martial arts, so he couldn't dodge the assassination that was so close at hand.

Suddenly there was a muffled sound, blood spattered, and Jian Guohou fell to the ground on his back.

He had never valued the empress who came from Luoxinzhai but obeyed Emperor Xuande's words for many years. He was even more conceited that he had already controlled the palace and a large number of troops, so he made various plans for the arrival of the four seasons in the base camp, but forgot to look around him.

In this moment of negligence, on the day when the five princes reunited, Jian Guohou was hammered to death by the empress at the Tai Chi Palace!
