Emperor Son Sang gl

Chapter 16 Carrier City

March [-], Jiangnan.

The simple carriage that went south from Kyoto, after nearly a month of trekking, arrived at the destination of the group: Jiangnan Carrier City.

With Jiang as the boundary, Gongsun Zheng's Haigu army had taken in most of the cities in the southern area as the rebel army, and was waiting to gather the troops from all over the place, and then ordered to attack the Daning imperial city.

Zi Sang Yu and Lian Fu stayed at an inn in Chengyun City for the past few days. Lian Xin was the detective and sent letters to the mansion of Prince Haigu and Gongsun Zheng, saying that it was the Lian family brothers who brought Tong Yuan with them. Yang bloodline seeks to see.It happened that Gongsun Zheng was busy these few days. After Gongsun Zheng finished his work, he got the news. After thinking about it a few times, he realized the importance of the matter.

One day, Zi Sang Yu and others were resting in the inn, a small group of Haigu soldiers came to him, prepared some sedan chairs, and said that they were here to invite some of them to the Haigu Palace.

"Father, do you think this King Haigu will deny us?"

"Your Highness, don't worry too much. Gongsun Zheng is upright and has a very good friendship with the crown prince, so he won't embarrass His Highness."

"Hey...Father has these loyal subordinates for him. As his child, I really envy him. If one day, I can also have such a group of people who are loyal to me, will I have the ability to rule the world? Woolen cloth?"

Haigu Palace.

Gongsun Zheng's mood has been difficult to calm down ever since he received a report from a subordinate in the government that a young man was visiting.Although it was only a very short message, it contained an unbearable sense of excitement.

"My lord, people are here."

Gongsun Zheng gave a jolt, jumped up from the grand teacher's chair in the main hall, and hurriedly said: "Please hurry up!"

After a while, several people followed in the footsteps of his subordinates.

Gongsun Zheng was pacing restlessly in the hall, when he turned his head, he saw a young man approaching from the veranda.He is dressed in a black round-neck robe, embroidered with a dark five-clawed dragon; on his head is a purple gold crown facing the sky, and the bead hairpin behind the crown is slowly shaking with steady steps.Seeing this young man's face again, whether it's eyebrows or demeanor, there is a bit of princely demeanor.

Taking a closer look, Gongsun Zheng saw the Panlong jade pendant on his waist again.

"King Haigu!" Before they reached the main hall, Lian Fu and Lian Yan greeted Gongsun Zheng with their hands together. "It's been more than ten years since the old days. I don't know how the prince is doing now?"

"Haha, Brother Lian!" Gongsun Zheng also smiled, and patted Lian Fu's shoulder without hesitation: "Don't say it's been more than ten years, even if it's been decades, my old bones are still strong! Turning around deliberately, he looked at Lian Xin: "This little brother is handsome, but is he a brother?"

"Exactly." Lian Fu turned around, "Xin'er, hurry up and greet the prince."

"Lian Xin has met King Haigu!"

"It's easy to say, easy to say!" Gongsun Zheng smiled, and then looked back at Zi Sang Yu.Just now the distance may not be clear, but now the distance between the two is only five or six feet.As he got closer, he felt more and more the shocking aura on his body.

Zi Sang Yu smiled, just looking directly at him.

Seeing that Gongsun Zheng was silent for a few moments, Lian Fu also had a general idea in his heart.

"My lord?" A subordinate next to him was a little puzzled.

"Gu Tang, you guys go down first." Gongsun Zheng suppressed the laughing face just now, and changed it back to seriousness.

"Subordinate to order."

After everyone in the main hall retreated, the tense atmosphere among them seemed to ease somewhat.Lian Fu just wanted to speak to him the words he had prepared along the way, but he never thought that Gongsun Zheng had already made a move first.

Gongsun Zheng turned to Zi Sangyu, lifted his robe and knelt down.

"My lord—" Zi Sangyu was a little surprised, and hurriedly reached out to block it.

"Although I, Gongsun Zheng, have the title of Prince Haigu, in fact, I am just a rough man." Gongsun Zheng raised his head and looked directly at Zi Sangyu in front of him: "But I promised the crown prince In the future, if you see a person holding a mulberry panlong jade pendant, you should bow down first!"

Immediately afterwards, the loud kowtowing sound shook Zi Sangyu's heart.

--------------------

In the 47th year of Dayan Shunhe, winter.

Now that the season of falling cold has passed, the Dayan Dynasty, with its vast territory, and Kyoto, which is biased to the north, have already had the first snow flutteringly.The inside of the Dayan Imperial Palace is covered with a layer of silver, and being in it is like reaching the end of the day, and you can't see a single scene in the distance.

In the Prince's Mansion of the East Palace in the imperial palace, some palace servants had just swept the snow in front of the door in the morning, and now there was another layer of snowflakes.

"Come on, Xuezheng, this is the wine I specially asked someone to bring out from the wine cellar. It's rare for you to come here, so you have to drink a few more glasses of wine with me no matter what."

Inside the East Palace, the Crown Prince Sang Tong did not go out, but entertained Prince Haigu, Gong Sunzheng, who had just returned to the capital, in the mansion.

"Xuezheng is so valued by Prince Meng, I'm terrified." Gongsun Zheng, the word Xuezheng. "It's very cold in winter, it's okay to have a few drinks with the prince; but it's not good to be drunk during the day."

After returning to the capital for a few days, I heard reports from subordinates that Prince Tong has been in a bad mood recently, and often wanders alone in the imperial city, or talks to himself in the East Palace, as if he is crazy.

Gongsun Zheng has not been in the capital in recent years, so he does not know the details.

Prince Tong smiled and filled a cup of wine for him.

"Xuezheng, you haven't been back to the capital for a long time, you don't know what's going on." Prince Tong became emotional, and walked to the window.The scenery by the window is the Dayan Palace covered in snow.

Gongsun Zheng followed and stood beside him.

"Prince, what's the matter?"

Prince Tong set his gaze far away, looking beyond the imperial city.

"Received the reward, Bai Daocheng has formed an alliance with King Ming. They will act on the Yuanyang Festival and kill me and my father. After that, Bai Daocheng will bring people into the palace in the name of the Qing emperor, and then destroy them." King Ming." Prince Tong said these words slowly, and Gongsun Zheng gasped in shock.

"Prince, since you know all this, why don't you resist? Xuezheng can—" Before Gongsun Zheng finished speaking, Prince Tong raised his hand to block: "Xuezheng, you can't help. Your troops are far away in the south of the Yangtze River , Even if we start rushing to the imperial city at this moment, the soldiers will be exhausted and unable to fight."

"But," Gongsun Zheng couldn't help heartbroken: "Is the crown prince willing to hand over the country to others?"

The prince sighed lightly.

"As a generation of princes, how can I be willing to hand over the country to others? It's just that I have no soldiers in my hands. Even if I have you, how can your 3 horses in the south of the Yangtze River resist his 15 horses from Bai Daocheng? , I have no influence in the court except for the right minister and a few adults. I can't win him in this battle."

Gongsun Zheng was speechless, not knowing what to say.

Prince Tong patted him on the shoulder and smiled: "Xuezheng, you don't have to be sad for me. Today, although I am unable to uproot the foundation of his Bai Daocheng, in the future, I believe he will not be able to escape."

"The crown prince said it nicely, who will come in the future?"

If Yuanyang's incident is serious, Zisang's family will be slaughtered.Not to mention the future, maybe next year there will be no more Zisang bloodlines.

"In the future, my child will take this revenge for me."

When Gongsun Zheng heard this, his pupils shrank, and he was startled: "The prince's child? His Royal Highness?..." After thinking about it, "But, isn't the princess concubine still in labor? Could it be..."

"When the Crown Princess lowers Lin'er, before the Yuanyang Festival, I will order two brothers from the Lian family to escort the child out of the city. Although I don't have much power in my hands, there are still a few wise and resourceful cronies. But, now The time is too short, and these cronies have not yet become successful. I guess, when the child grows up, he will have the ability to oppose his Bai family."

Prince Tong calculated every step of the future in detail, but Gongsun Zheng who was listening on the side couldn't help but shed tears. "But Crown Prince, in this case, you will have to give up the lives of everyone in the Zisang family except the emperor's grandson! And in the next ten years, maybe the Dayan Dynasty will have a new master!"

"It's really wrong to cause others to give up their lives." Prince Tong raised his head to look at the gray sky: "It's just that Zisang's catastrophe cannot escape no matter what. If Zisang's sacrifice It can be exchanged for the boy's future uprising and the rebirth of the Dayan Dynasty, then it is worth it."

"Prince—"

In grief, Gongsun Zheng couldn't help kneeling in front of him.

Prince Tong squatted down and helped him up.

"Xuezheng, promise me one thing."

"Prince, please tell me, no matter what happens, I will never hesitate to learn righteousness!"

"This is my son Sang's heirloom Panlong Jade Pendant. I will leave it to my child who is about to be born. In the future, if someone wears this jade pendant and comes to see you, I hope you can help him."

"Don't worry, the crown prince. Even if Xuezheng gives up his life, he will protect the emperor and grandson well."

-------------------------

In the 48th year of Dayan Shunhe, on the twelfth night of the first lunar month.

In the side hall of the Crown Prince's Mansion in the Eastern Palace, the screaming made everyone uneasy.The crown prince was pacing up and down outside the side hall, exhaling hot air continuously, praying in a low voice for the concubine who gave birth.

Crown Princess Shaozheng gave birth ahead of schedule, which was only known to a few trustworthy people in the mansion.

Now, the princess has been screaming in the delivery room for nearly an hour, but there is still no movement at all.Prince Tong couldn't help frowning, and wanted to rush into the delivery room several times.

"My lord, the delivery room is filthy, you can't go in!" The maid guarding the door hurriedly dissuaded her.

The prince was so angry that he waved his sleeves, so he had no choice but to give up.It's not that I'm anxious, it's not that I'm going in, and it seems that helping can't help much work.Damn, why does it seem so incompetent?

At the other end of the courtyard gate, a figure ran hurriedly, it was the people of the confidant company.

"Brother!" Lian Zhifan, who had been by Prince Tong's side all the time, was also relieved to see his brother come back. "How, have those things been explained?"

"Everything has been agreed." Lian Zhimin looked back at Prince Tong and reported, "In two days' time it will be the grand festival of Yuanyang, so many vendors and theater troupes have come to the palace to help with the arrangements. Although it is night now, However, there are still many people coming in and out of the palace gate. The subordinates only need to pretend to be one of them, and leaving the palace will not be a problem."

"Okay." Prince Tong said no more.

Lian Zhimin looked back at the delivery room, and heard the screams in the room, and his heart was blocked.

Time passed by, and another hour passed after seeing the difficult delivery of the princess. Now, it is the thirteenth day of the first lunar month.The crown prince is now suffering from moment to moment. Thinking of the miscarriage of the crown prince's first two babies, I feel a chill in my heart.Could it be that God is really going to destroy Zi Sang's family?

"what------"

The princess let out a heart-piercing cry, accompanied by the baby's loud cry.

Everyone outside the door breathed a sigh of relief, and Prince Tong also had some joy on his face.Regardless of the obstruction of those people outside the door, he rushed into the delivery room immediately, eager to know the situation of the crown princess.

"All blessings, His Royal Highness, the Crown Princess and the little princess are safe and sound."

The old mother next to him bowed and saluted, but this sentence made the prince stand still in place.

"Little princess?" Prince Tong said very softly, and walked slowly towards the princess on the bed.His gaze was just looking dully at the little man in brocade beside the princess.

"That's right, the little princess is also healthy, and she is almost carved out of the same model as His Highness."

The crown prince squatted beside the bed and looked at the weak crown princess lying on the bed.The Crown Princess maintained her pale face and forced a slight smile at Prince Tong. "Zheng'er, thank you for your hard work..." Prince Tong grasped her hand tightly and put it on his face.

"Being able to give birth to a child for His Highness, it is not a pain for a concubine." The Crown Princess paused, thinking about the look on the Crown Prince Tong's face just now, and knew that he was definitely concerned about the identity of the child in his heart. "It's just Your Highness... This is your child and mine after all..."

The crown prince was silent, looking back at the baby in the swaddle.

A pink and tender little person, the fetal hair on the top of the head is still a little wet.Although he didn't open his eyes, but looking at his eyebrows and small nose and mouth, he could vaguely see the existence similar to Prince Tong.However, as a daughter, do you really want to let a child who is a daughter complete the great event of restoring Zisang and unifying the world?

Prince Tong was indecisive.

"Your Highness..." Seeing that he was silent, the Crown Princess probably guessed seven or eight points. "Things have come to this, even if I can't bear to sacrifice my child to the world in the future, I still have to find a way for her to survive. Tonight, the child will leave the palace for sure. When she grows up in the future, if she refuses to fight for Zisang's family, we will die." It’s also helpless.”

"Zheng'er is right." Prince Tong nodded: "At the moment, it is most important to send her out of the palace first."

The two brothers of the Lian family who had been waiting outside the door received the order and handed over things such as yellow silk, pens and inks, and seals.Prince Tong spread out the white cloth and yellow silk, and wrote:

"Dayanshunhe 48th year, the first month. The emperor was born as a daughter. But he failed to stay by his side. According to the return, the Bai family will rise up in Yuanyang, fearing that the emperor's life will be dragged down. The cronies, the people, and the emperor will go out of the city. One is health, the other is recovery; I know that this move will tire me for a lifetime of hard work, but there is nothing I can do. Today, I name the emperor's son Yu, and present him with a jade pendant. I hope that my body will be strong, so that I can unify the world and revitalize the world. delay."

Putting down the wolf hair in his hand, Prince Tongfu took off the Panlong jade pendant worn around his waist, and handed it along with the yellow silk edict to the brothers of the Lian family who were waiting by the side.

"It's dangerous, you two have to protect yourself."

As soon as this remark came out, at this moment, it seemed to be the time of parting.

Lian Zhimin and Lian Zhifan knelt down on the ground together, kowtowed three times: "Lian Zhimin/Lian Zhifan, I can't serve the crown prince in this life. I hope to meet you someday and drink freely; if there is no fate in the world, I only hope that I will wait a while on the road of reincarnation, and my subordinates will have a drink with the prince before entering the path of life and death!"

The prince smiled and nodded.

The thirteenth day of the first lunar month is the early morning night.

There are still many people coming and going in and out of the Dayan Palace, all in preparation for the recent Yuanyang Grand Meeting.Among them were two men dressed as civilians, pushing a cart of empty baskets and following them out of the palace.

The crown prince stood on the wall of the palace gate not far away, watching all this until the two people left the palace gate and galloped on horseback.

"Yu'er, I hope you won't blame the emperor for being cruel to you in the future." The crown prince raised his eyes and looked back at Mingyue: "It's just that you are a member of the royal family in this life, and you are destined to live an ordinary life. "

"I hope you can do well in the future, and I hope that you can sit on the throne of the emperor and find what you want most. The emperor can't help you, I can only leave a few more useful cronies for you."

A dark cloud drifted out from behind the bright moon, slightly covering some of the moonlight.

Dayan Palace, ready to start a new day.
