Loyalty Hou Tiansheng rebellious

Chen Hen rode his horse all the way into the palace, and never stopped his horse in front of the Yangju hall, and went straight to the front steps of the hall.

All the courtiers in the lower ranks knelt down.

The horse's hooves slowed down, and stepped on the narrow space between the kneeling ministers.Chen Hen tilted his head slightly, looking at one person after another coldly.

In fact, he should have known earlier that sooner or later the courtiers would be dissatisfied and gather together to oppose him.From the New Year's Eve of the first year of Yongjia, he lied that Li Yan was seriously ill, and then he asserted his own power and overthrew the government of the aristocratic family.

Sooner or later he will have this day.

Eunuch Gao and the bandits were waiting in front of the Yangju hall, and he also lied to them.Said that Li Yan was recuperating in the Hou's mansion secretly, and asked them to listen to Lord Hou in all matters.

Chen Hen clenched his frozen hands and got off the horse.

He didn't speak, just walked straight into the hall.

After the rebellion, he had to enter the palace two or three times a month.The people around only thought that Li Yan was in the Yangju Palace, and he had to pretend to report the government affairs to the emperor.

In fact, when he was in the Yangju Palace, he imitated Li Yan's handwriting to write some important papers.Sometimes when the interest comes, I will imitate Li Yan's handwriting and reward myself with things to show my favor.

Other times, it's just a daze.

Like now.

Chen Hen knelt down on the cushion, threw himself forward, sighed again, tilted his body to the side, and fell on the cushion in a daze.

"Master Hou?" Eunuch Gao served him hot tea.

Chen Hen blinked, and straightened up: "In a while, go out and tell the emperor's will, and say that the emperor told them to get out."

It is said that it is the will of the emperor, but outsiders will think that it is the loyalty of the Lord to deceive the Sacred Heart, but it is actually the meaning of the Lord.

"Okay." Eunuch Gao paused for a moment, and then said, "The Ministry of Rites sent the portrait up directly, Lord Hou will take a look..."

"Back back..." Chen Hen hesitated, and suddenly remembered that he was in charge of everything, but it was Li Yan's matter, and he couldn't interfere, so he changed his mouth and said, "Let's leave it alone, the Emperor Kaichun is back, Just show him."

"The old slave will send them away."

"Yeah." Chen Hen fell back on the mat again, "Elder-in-law, I want to stay alone for a while."

"it is good."

After Eunuch Gao went out, Chen Hen turned his head, only to catch a glimpse of many scrolls piled up on the case that Li Yan hadn't used for a long time.

Probably the portraits of noble ladies from various families.Li Yan didn't even have a girl's family around him these years, so the Chang'an families took extra care of him, wishing they could just send their warm little padded jackets instead of portraits to the Yangju Hall.

Chen Hen stared blankly for a long while with his eyes closed, then turned his head and saw that the door of the inner room was closed, and he was the only one in the room.

Willow leaf eyebrows, cherry mouth, jade face contains spring.

After reading two more scrolls, Chen Hen put away the scroll without interest.

He is not eligible.

When he was collecting things, Eunuch Gao accidentally opened the door and came in: "Master Hou?"

"Ah... I just look at it casually." Chen Hen quickly put away the scroll, and muttered, "Seeing form because of emptiness, form is emptiness."

Eunuch Gao said: "The adults outside refuse to leave."

"Isn't that harsh enough?"

"The old slave said the original words of Lord Hou."

"what?"

Gao Gonggong imitated his appearance just now, and said coldly: "'Let them go.'"

"That's it." Chen Hen scratched his hair, "Is it going to snow again outside? Send someone to Baoyuan Hall, find the biggest stick of incense, and light it in front of the hall. Think about it when you give them a cup of tea, If you want to leave, you can leave. If you don’t want to leave after a cup of tea, if you love to kneel, you can kneel. If you want to leave again, you can’t leave. You can’t leave until the incense is burned.”

After giving orders, Chen Hen was still sitting alone in the inner room in a daze.

I didn't sleep all night last night, preoccupied with arranging the affairs before and after.Although Li Yan hasn't lived in the Yangju Hall for a year, the Yangju Hall still lights ambergris every day.

Chen Hen has a little secret that no one knows. He likes to smell ambergris, so much so that if he smells it, he will sleep well.

When he was falling asleep, Eunuch Gao knocked on the door again: "Master Xu, Mr. Xu is here."

Xu Xing.

Chen Hen raised his head, calmed down, got up and went out.

At that time, people from the palace came to report to the Hou Mansion, and Xu Xing was also there, so he asked Xu Xing to go back first, who knew he would still come.

Chen Hen paced and walked to the door of the outer hall. Through the paper pasted on the door, he could only see Xu Xing under the eaves, coughing and talking to the courtiers kneeling below.

The time for a cup of tea has already passed, and there is an incense burner on the ground, and a big stick of incense burns slowly.

Xu Xing was helping him out and praising him.

He has worked with Xu Xing for nearly a year, sometimes it is difficult for Wu Duan to come forward when it comes to civil servants, and Su Xiang is old, so he and Xu Xing always deal with it.

However, Xu Xing was too gentle, so he was not good enough to quarrel with literati.

Chen Hen looked inside the door for a while, guessing that it was time for him to go out, so he pushed open the palace door and stepped across the threshold.

He frowned and stared, slowed down and walked out.

At this time, everyone held their breaths and kept silent, all looking at him, to see what this master Hou with all hands and eyes was going to do.

Chen Hen didn't look at them either, he just said: "Go ahead and ignore me."

He said to continue, but no one dared to say anything.

So Chen Hen stood on the steps, leaning against the colonnade, and quietly confronted everyone under the steps.

Until the snow fell in the sky, Chen Hen subconsciously reached out to catch it.

This is because the snowflakes were not too big, and they quickly turned into water in his palm. He put his hands into his sleeves and slowly walked down the steps.

He stopped on the last three steps, which were slippery with snow and water.He just brushed the steps with his sleeve and sat down.

"Everyone, I, Chen Liting, was drawn out by the family tree earlier. I am a widow and have no sisters. I will not send anyone into the palace to compete with you for the position in the emperor's harem."

Chen Hen raised his hand to beckon a small guard to come forward, drew out his long sword pinned to his waist with his backhand, took the long sword and slowly cut off the sleeve on the left hand side, and said unhurriedly: "I myself, another Duanxiu, I won't have a daughter in this life, and I won't rob you of the emperor—of course, I won't rob you of your daughter either. Don't worry."

Holding the long sword, he cut the warp and weft of the fabric, cut off half of the sleeve and threw it to them: "If I break my promise in the future, you will throw this half of the sleeve in my face."

Everyone was a little anxious, and hurriedly said that they didn't come here because of the emperor's selection of concubines.

Chen Hen glanced at them amusedly, and said leisurely: "I know, it's been almost a year, and the emperor is seriously ill, and I am alone in charge of the government. This year, the government has changed a lot, and I have acted too hastily, everyone. I was muttering in my heart, for bearing me until now, it is considered to be giving me face."

"Actually, I personally feel that the things I do are not bad. It's just that sometimes I can't take care of everyone's mood—" Chen Hen smiled at them heartlessly, "Actually, what do you have? So scrupulous? They will only kneel one by one."

Without waiting for everyone to refute, he continued: "When the spring begins, I will go to the south of the Yangtze River to suppress the rebellion. I didn't do many things in the court, and this is the last one. I will not come back, and I will never come back again. After this , everyone, just pack up—”

"Let's be in harmony with the emperor, monarch and ministers."

Chen Hen propped up his hands, stood up from the steps, patted the ashes on his clothes, bent down, cupped his hands, and made a deep bow to them.

It was useless to talk, so he turned and left.

The clothes were wet with snow, but half of the sleeves were still broken, which was very funny.Underneath the clothes, there is a bamboo-like character.

Without looking back, he walked to the eaves. Eunuch Gao brushed the snow off his shoulders for him, and pointed to the back, telling him to look back.

Chen Hen tilted his head and saw that this group of people were still kneeling.Xin Dao really didn't make any sense, he wanted to speak, but he saw everyone bowed and kowtowed to him.

Chen Hen was taken aback for a moment, then walked towards the censer under the eaves, raised his foot and kicked the censer over, and the incense ash in the censer was scattered all over the floor.

Originally he told them to leave only after the incense in the censer had been burned, but now that he kicked the censer over, that was no longer the case.

Waving at them, Chen Hen said casually, "Go back, it's freezing cold."

He flicked his sleeves, walked into the hall, crossed the threshold, and when he turned around to close the door of the hall, he raised his eyes and saw Xu Xing standing over the threshold, wondering if he should follow in.

Chen Hen smiled helplessly, and waved at him: "I want to be alone for a while."

Sending off the group, Chen Hen lay on the table for a while, was rushed by Eunuch Gao to take a hot bath, changed into new clothes, and finally, old doctor Zhang pinched his nose and poured him a bowl of water. ginger soup.

In a snowy day, the road was slippery, and Eunuch Gao asked him to sleep in the warm pavilion to the west for a while before leaving. Chen Hen refused and wanted to go back to Hou's mansion.

Before leaving, he said: "Eunuch, from now on, don't mention me in the palace, especially the Yangju Palace."

Eunuch Gao's expression froze, and finally he answered with a smile.Turning around, the little eunuch left behind the clothes that Chen Hen had replaced.

The relationship with the courtiers eased, and Chen Hen had a not-so-desolate New Year's Eve.

In the beginning of spring in March, I set off for Jiangnan.

Traveling five miles outside Chang'an City, the sun gradually rose—they set off early, and they set off at dawn.

Chen Hen raised his eyes, saw the sun was dim, and remembered that today was still the day when Su Xiang went to the Hou's mansion to welcome Li Yan back to the palace.He marched so early without disturbing anyone, in order to stagger with Li Yan.

It was his own choice to stagger, but he just wanted to see him suddenly.

Knowing that he will die in Jiangnan in all likelihood, asking him to suppress the rebellion is nothing to be afraid of.

The scary thing is that I won't see Li Yan again.The last time I saw him was several months ago, and at that time he was drowsy and couldn't see clearly, and then he became even more groggy and couldn't see clearly.

A little bit of thought took root and sprouted, and it grew into towering trees in an instant, wrapping his whole body out of breath.

Xu Xing beside him shook his hand: "Master Hou?"

"I..." Chen Hen said softly, "You go first, don't wait for me, I will catch up with you."

He said this quickly and softly, and regardless of whether Xu Xing heard it clearly, he pulled the horse's rein back, turned the horse's head, and ran back with a flick of the whip.

Just take a sneak peek.

He got off his horse at the end of Suzaku Long Street, and led the horse to hide at the corner.

There was a carriage parked in front of the Hou Mansion, and Su Xiang accompanied Li Yan out from the main gate of the Hou Mansion.

Chen Hen heard from his subordinates that Li Yan moved the things in the house every morning to practice sword moves without a sword.But jewel cages for canaries are not as good as they are good.

He was born tall, practiced moves every day, and was strong.It looks pretty good.

When standing on the threshold of Hou Mansion, Li Yan refused to move.

Su Xiang smiled, didn't know what to say, and took out the letter that Chen Hen had prepared from his sleeve and handed it to him.Li Yan was stunned for a while before reaching out to take the letter, but Su Xiang took the letter back.

"The emperor gets into the carriage first, and when I get into the carriage, I will give you the letter." Chen Hen taught him this.

In fact, Chen Hen never felt that he had difficulties, even if the system task was the reason, it was not a sufficient reason for him to bear Li Yan confidently.

So I dare not see him, only dare to look at him secretly.

This is a bad account that can't be calculated.Chen Hen vomited his heart and soul, and was about to give his life to Li Yan, but he just couldn't forgive Li Yan, and he would never forgive Li Yan.

The carriage rattled along Suzaku Long Street.

Flames soared into the sky in the Hou's mansion.

Li Yan was concentrating on reading the letter at first, but when the hot wind lifted the curtain of the carriage, he saw it in a blink of an eye, and jumped off before the carriage stopped.

As if being rushed by the heat wave, Li Yan took two steps back, turned his head and asked Su Xiang beside him, his voice hoarse: "He... just left so cruelly?"

"I'll come back when something happens in Minzhong." This was also what Chen Hen taught Su Xiang to say.

The plaque of the Marquis of Loyalty hanging in front of the door crashed to the ground.

In the sky full of flames and smoke, Chen Maomao jumped out from there, and wanted to run to Chen Hen who was hiding at the end of the long street. Chen Hen dodged and hid behind the wall.

So Chen Maomao wagged its tail and moved closer to Li Yan, scratching his clothes with its paws.
