Chongxi [rebirth]

Qiao Hairen deliberated for a long time, but in the end he went to the palace to ask for an audience.

These days, King Yong'an's actions in Beijing, he can see most clearly.He became more and more certain that the emperor must be fine, otherwise King Yong'an would not suddenly spread false news for no reason.

But after Yu Jia returned to Beijing, the emperor's situation was different from what he had guessed. The imperial doctors looked solemn and tight-lipped, as if the emperor's situation was really bad.

After thinking about it, he felt that there must be something strange about it. In addition, Han Chan and some of the courtiers made frequent small moves before.

Cui Xi led Qiao Hairen in, led him to the door, and said with a smile: "Master Qiao, go in, His Majesty and Lord Shen are discussing matters inside."

It was said that Qiao Hairen's doubts grew deeper, he was seriously injured and lay unconscious in bed, why is he still discussing matters?

He entered the inner hall full of doubts, and saw Li Zong sitting on the couch with his hands on his knees, and some blood-stained bandages were thrown beside the couch.Although his face was a little pale, it was ruddy. How could it look like he was seriously injured and dying?

"I've seen His Majesty." Qiao Hairen stepped forward to salute, scanning the person up and down, but couldn't tell.

Li Zong noticed his scrutiny, and laughed: "Why did Qiao Aiqing enter the palace?"

"Recently, people in Beijing have been fluctuating. It is said that His Majesty was seriously injured in the battle... dying." Qiao Hairen is straightforward and doesn't like to play tricks, so he simply said all the rumors outside: "Your Majesty's dragon body is fine, why don't you come forward? Peace of mind?"

"In the past few days, the rumors have become more and more popular, and people's hearts are fluctuating, which may not be conducive to the stability of the government."

Li Zong moved his wrist, but didn't take his words to heart, and asked casually: "People's hearts are floating? How is it floating?"

Could it be that besides Li Fengqi, there are other people who dare to rebel?

"This..." Qiao Hairen hesitated a little. Seeing that Li Zong seemed to be unaware of what Han Chan was doing, he could only remind him: "Master Taifu...he has visited Duanwang's residence several times in the past few days."

Li Zong didn't think in any other direction at all, and subconsciously wanted to say "what's wrong with the Taifu's visit to Prince Duan's Mansion", when the words came to his lips, he suddenly remembered what was in Prince Duan's Mansion.

His face changed suddenly, and he confirmed with Qiao Hairen in disbelief: "What is the Tai Tuo going to Duan Wangfu for?"

"I haven't been to Prince Duan's mansion before, so I dare not talk nonsense." Qiao Hairen bowed and cupped his hands, sighing, "Your Majesty will go to Prince Duan's mansion, and King Tong Duan will know as soon as he asks."

The Taifu had a deep relationship with the emperor, teachers and students, and the emperor respected the Taifu very much. If possible, he didn't want the two to turn against each other.Already divorced from a king of Yong'an, if the Taifu also gave birth to a different heart, the situation in the court in the future will be unimaginable.

But looking at it now, his worst guess may come true.

With his hands on his knees clenched into fists, Li Zong's expression was serious and he didn't say a word.

Zhong Zhongyu stood aside, the more he heard it, the more frightened he became, but after a while he figured it out, the emperor would have more chances if he didn't have a confidant around him.

The atmosphere in the inner hall was chilling, and after a long while, Li Zong took a look at Qiao Hairen, and said in a deep voice: "Qiao Shizhong will stay in the palace today, I have to confirm some things myself."

"Yes." Qiao Hairen sighed, the emperor was clearly afraid that he would reveal the secret, and wanted to confine him in the palace temporarily.

Looking at Li Zing's gloomy face, and thinking about King Yong'an's actions, he always felt that he had missed some important key, but he couldn't figure it out anyway, so he could only follow Cui Xi to the side of the arrangement. Rest in the temple.

There are only two people left in the Taigan Palace.

Shen Shen looked at his ugly face, and cautiously did not make a sound.

After a while, Li Zong restrained his emotions and said expressionlessly: "Did Shen Aiqing also hear the rumors outside?"

"I've heard a little bit." Shen Shen bowed his head and said cautiously: "But I'm in camp outside the city, so I didn't hear everything. I didn't know anything about the Grand Tutor."

Li Zong snorted suddenly, as if he didn't really want to listen to his answer, he muttered to himself: "Even Qiao Hairen knows, but I alone don't know, it's ridiculous!"

He suddenly jumped up, smashed the collapsed soft pillow on the ground, and said with a ferocious face: "It's ridiculous!"

"Your Majesty, calm down!" He didn't expect him to have a sudden attack, he was shocked heavily, and immediately prostrated himself on the ground.

"All of you don't take me seriously, you all hope that I will die soon, don't you?" Li Zong's eyes were red, and his chest was heaving. Ever since Qiao Hairen said that Han Chan had gone to Duanwang's mansion, his tone had changed. Suppressed in the chest, finally able to vent at this time.

"I don't dare, my loyalty to His Majesty can be learned from heaven and earth!" Zhong Yu secretly said that it was unlucky, but he could only try to calm his anger.

But Li Zong couldn't listen at all, his mind was full of Han Chan looking forward to his death, and he couldn't wait to choose an heir for him.This is simply ridiculous!

He painstakingly pretended to be seriously injured. Not only did he not hurt Li Fengqi at all, but Han Chan couldn't sit still.

It's really a big joke in the world!

"Duan Wang's Mansion, yes, Duan Wang's Mansion." He muttered a few times, turned around twice in place, casually put on a robe, picked up the whip on the rack, and walked outside, and the servants followed him with terrified expressions wherever he passed. After that, no one dared to step forward to stop him.

Cui Xi, who heard the sound, stepped forward quickly and asked softly: "Where is your Majesty going, I will order someone to show you."

"Duan, Wang, Fu." The three words came out from Li Zong's teeth, and he said without turning his head, "Bring me the horse!"

Hearing this, Cui Xi didn't stop much, and gave the servant behind him a look, and hurried to prepare the horse.

The servant quickly brought the horse, Li Zong got on the horse, and rode the horse towards the outside of the palace.

……

There was such a big commotion in the palace, well-informed people knew it immediately after Li Zong left the palace gate.

In the Taifu's mansion, Han Chan listened to the eyeliner and shook his hand holding the teapot, and the hot tea was spilled all over the table. He suddenly looked up at the messenger: "What did you say?"

The little servant who reported the letter tremblingly said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty rode out of the palace angrily and went to Duanwang's mansion."

"...It's quite a skill."

Hearing the little servant saying that Li Zong rode out of the palace, Han Chan immediately realized that the so-called serious injuries were all fake.His face froze for a while, he closed his eyes, took a handkerchief to wipe off the water stains on the table, and said in a calm tone: "I see, you can go back."

After taking the waiter to leave, Han Chan made another pot of tea for herself, and ordered her servants to open the door and wait quietly.

Li Zong went to Prince Duan's Mansion, the next one should be his Taifu's Mansion.

At the same time, Yong'an Palace also got the news.

"He went to Duan Wang's mansion?" Li Fengqi sneered mercilessly: "He will never die until he reaches the Yellow River."

Ye Yunting frowned slightly: "Do you think he will do anything to Han Chan this time?"

"He is the emperor after all." Li Fengqi was not worried, and said calmly: "Besides, we still have a big gift for him."

After finishing speaking, he summoned the fifth watch and asked him to prepare the car for driving.

"Let's go, let's wait for him first." Li Fengqi put a few letters on the case into his sleeve, and said slowly: "He doesn't know about the matter between Han Chan and the Yin family."

***

Galloping all the way, it took less than half a quarter of an hour to arrive at Duan Wang's Mansion.

Li Zong got off his horse and walked inside with his whip.

The gatekeeper wanted to stop him, but when he saw that the person was wearing a dragon robe, he took two steps back in shock and rushed in to report the news.

Since Han Chan's visit, Duan Wang has been anxious for several days.I had thought that such a day would come, but I didn't expect it to come so soon.Not to mention that Li Zong would break into the mansion with a whip in his hand.

When King Duan heard the alarmed servants, he quickly asked someone to carry his little grandson to the backyard, wiped his face, pulled the clothes on his head, and went out tremblingly.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, he ran into the menacing Li Zong head-on.

"Why does the emperor look like this?" Li Zong paused, and sneered: "I thought the duanwang mansion should be filled with lights and festivities these few days, after all, a little emperor will be born soon..."

King Duan immediately cried out for his injustice, and said with a sad face: "I am absolutely loyal to Your Majesty, and I dare not think anything wrong. Before that, the Taifu came to the door several times to persecute and threaten me, but I never let go. Please give me your Majesty's lesson!"

As he spoke, he felt more and more that this was an innocent disaster, and he said angrily: "The old minister usually grows flowers and plants, and ignores court affairs. He has never had the heart of disobedience, it is all Taifu's wolf ambition, seeing that Qi'er is young and easy to control , Forced me several times to hand over Qi'er to him!"

Duan Wang really hated Han Chan who dragged him into the water, and shook off what Han Chan had done in the past few days.

Hearing this, Li Zong felt that his heart was gradually freezing, and the ice and snow on the ground were not as cold as his heart at this moment.

King Duan was still crying and complaining that he was old, but at this time he was only wearing plain single clothes, screaming for grievances with snot and tears, and by the way scolded Han Chan for being ruthless and unjust for his ambition and betraying His Majesty's trust.

Li Zong listened, as if a big hole had been opened in his heart, and the bitter wind and snow blew into the hole, making his limbs icy cold.He took a step back involuntarily, and the whip in his hand slipped to the ground.

After a long time, Duan Wang's voice became hoarse, but he turned and left without saying a word.

King Duan stopped crying, wiped his face, looked at his back, but felt a bit chilly.He was supported by the maid to stand up, and he ordered in a low voice: "Go, ask the concubine to tidy up the house. In a few days, I will submit a booklet and ask myself to go to the fiefdom for the elderly."

I'm afraid I won't be able to stay here in the capital.
