Xiao Yu left the city nine days ago, and before he left, he told everyone in the palace not to go out. His words seemed to imply that there would be a big change in Beijing.Sure enough, on the fourth night after Xiao Yu left, the palace was ablaze, and soldiers with halberds could be seen everywhere on the street.Fu Chongjiu sits in Prince Liang's Mansion, and only closes the door, regardless of what happens outside.Prince Liang's mansion is very close to the imperial palace, and some people in the mansion secretly climbed up to the roof to have a look during the day, and came back to tell Fu Chongjiu that a palace was burnt to the point that only a charred skeleton remained.On the seventh day, there was a death knell in the palace, and it rang for almost half a day. In just a few days, the dynasty changed.On the eighth day, the imperial edict of the new emperor's succession spread all over the capital, and only then did the world know that Emperor Wanfeng had an eldest son named Yan, who was now the crown prince who was about to ascend the throne.Oh, Emperor Wanfeng was burned to death in Lianyi Palace by traitors, and he was given the posthumous title of Emperor Ling.As for Princess Jincheng?The father-in-law who came to pass the message in the palace said, sorry, the palace has never heard of such a princess.

On the ninth day, it snowed heavily again in the capital.

Fu Chongjiu and He Liankong sat facing each other, outside the window was covered with white snow, but inside was as warm as spring.

On the small table are wine jugs, utensils for warming wine, and a few small dishes.

After Fu Chongjiu had a few cups of hot wine, his face turned red again, with watery peach blossom eyes and a bright red beauty mole on his forehead, he looked extremely charming when he smiled.

He Liankong secretly glanced at the person opposite, who was smiling, his eyes glued to his face.

Stealing Fusheng's half-day leisure, the two just sat like this, drinking, enjoying the snow, and gossiping.

He Liankong said: "I heard that there are disaster victims gathering outside the city. The new emperor ordered to open the city gates wide, so that both officials and merchants in the capital will give alms and relief! Ah Jiu, shall we do it?"

Fu Chongjiu staggered and said: "Do it, why not?! We ordinary people can only obey the will of the Holy Majesty."

He Liankong said: "Then I'll go and inform the shop outside in a while and let them prepare."

Heavy snow was flying, the cold wind was howling, and there was a sharp sound across the eaves.

He Liankong hesitated, and stammered: "You said...that new emperor..."

Fu Chongjiu propped his chin with his hands, half-closed his eyes: "Huh?"

"That new emperor... who is it?"

Fu Chongjiu smiled: "I don't know. Anyway, it must be that person."

He Liankong lay down on his back and stretched: "We lost Fu Zhen... Alas, it's a pity, cute little beauty... If the new emperor is not that person, then he has entered the palace. At this time His whereabouts are unknown... I am afraid that he is no longer alive?"

Fu Chongjiu was silent for a moment, and rarely showed a serious expression: "It's possible..."

Seeing that Fu Chongjiu was indifferent to him, He Liankong felt a little annoyed, and said, "You sent a letter to Fu Qian a few days ago, and he might be rushing to Beijing these few days! When Fu Qian came, he found His son is gone, let's see if he doesn't beat you to death!"

Fu Chongjiu smiled, noncommittal.

He Liankong got up, and said a little strangely: "Ah Jiu, are you sad? Tell you, I won't comfort you."

Fu Chongjiu glared at him and said: "He may not kill me, but when he knows what you did before, he will definitely kill you. Don't expect me to save you."

The two were arguing, when suddenly they heard the young servant outside the door rushing to report: "His Royal Highness Prince Liang is back!"

Fu Chongjiu and He Liankong looked at each other, and both of them saw hesitation and complexity in each other's eyes.

The two rushed to the front, and King Liang in armor rode a horse and stopped in the courtyard, followed by a number of guards who also wore armor.

Fu Chongjiu went up to meet him, and said leisurely, "Where did His Highness Prince Liang come from?"

Xiao Yu ignored him, but jumped off the horse and walked straight inside.

After Lu Chang gave birth to his horse, he saluted Fu Chongjiu and said, "We just came back from Taodong."

Fu Chongjiu raised his eyebrows.Taodong, that is an important town on the border of Liangguo, beyond Taodong is Liangguo, and beyond Taodong is Dafeng.

Lu Changsheng's face was a little tired, but he was in good spirits. He chattered to Fu Chongjiu: "The 20 soldiers and horses of Qingguo are all stationed on the border of Dafeng. Don't dare to move!"

Fu Chongjiu stroked his chin, and after thinking for a moment, he understood.The Northwest Army is controlled by Yang Weiyu. The Yang family, who hold a heavy army, should have been able to make some moves, but now they are suppressed by the Liangguo army, and they can't move for a while.The new emperor is about to ascend the throne, and the Yang family cannot make trouble at this time.

After a while, Xiao Yu changed his clothes and came out.

Fu Chongjiu chased after him and asked, "Where are you going?!"

Xiao Yu jumped on the horse without looking back, and said: "Go into the palace and go pick up Xiaowei."

In the Hall of Xunde, the new emperor in plain clothes received the King Liang who came here in a hurry.

The new emperor propped his chin with one hand, looking down at the prince who was kneeling and saluting.

"Liang Wang, you have done a good job. Don't worry, I will never forget our agreement. From next year, Liang will halve the annual tribute, and I will also write an edict to announce to the world that I will never withdraw from the feudal clan."

Xiao Yu raised his head abruptly, staring at the young new emperor who was in the position of superiority.

The man was still sitting lazily, with a handsome appearance and a faint smile on the corner of his lips.The man has a pair of beautiful phoenix eyes, the corners of which are slightly upturned, and there is always a feeling of half-smile, as if he has a disdain for everything in the world, but he is born with the demeanor of an emperor.

"Where is he?" Xiao Yu heard his own voice say.

The new emperor tilted his head slightly, looking a bit puzzled: "Who is King Liang referring to?"

Xiao Yu stood up: "He Shao! Where did you hide him?!" He approached the new emperor step by step. The guards around the new emperor drew their swords and tried to move forward, but the new emperor stopped him.

The new emperor stood up and walked towards Xiao Yu with his hands behind his back. He was slightly shorter than Xiao Yu, but he was naturally noble, making everything around him dim.Xiao Yu was not afraid of the opponent's aura at all, just stood upright, his aura as gloomy as the king of Hades and evil spirits was no worse than the opponent's.

The new emperor smiled and said, "Who is He Shao? I have never heard of this person."

Xiao Yu clenched his hands tightly: "Okay... Liu Yan, return Xiao Weizi to me."

Hearing this name, Xindi smiled, a strange flash of light flashed in his eyes, and he slowly closed his eyes.

On that day, the Ripple Palace was filled with flames.His men arrested Empress Yang Yang Weicheng and Yu Qiuwen, and personally read the edict of Emperor Wanfeng who was burned to death in front of the royal family and prestigious old ministers.When he read "Consolidate the imperial program and prolong the century-old foundation", his pupils shrank slightly, and he paused for a moment, but he refused to read any further. He just slowly rolled up the bright yellow silk cloth, and his hands moved uncontrollably. Trembling slightly, a drop of cold liquid slid down his cheek from the corner of his left eye.He threw the imperial edict to Shizhong next to him: "Make a new copy, and you don't need to write the last sentence."—From then on, he is Liu Yan, and there is no He Shao in this world, let alone a Fuguogong.

"Your Majesty the Emperor!"

The sound of Xiao Yu gnashing his teeth brought the new emperor back from his contemplation to reality.

The new emperor withdrew his smile, and sighed pretending to regret: "King Liang, I'm sorry for you."

The new emperor brought Xiao Yu to a piece of ruins. There used to be a palace here, majestic and majestic, but now the high steps were scorched black.

"At that time, he was with the first emperor. At that time, I was outside the palace and was rushing to the palace. In order to delay time for me, he was in this palace... dealing with that poisonous woman Yang, and was finally burned by Yang. He also failed to come out of the Ripple Palace. I have already sent people to look for it, but there is nothing left. Like the late emperor, he has no bones left." The new emperor said, taking a piece of Dailan that was burnt black The colored brocade cloth was handed over to Xiao Yu, and there was a broken impatiens flower on it, which was a small part of the princess's court dress.

The new emperor said with a look of regret: "I am sorry for you. I came late and failed to save him."

Xiao Yu stared blankly at the cloth in his palm for a while, opened his mouth, but couldn't make a sound.

The new emperor patted Xiao Yu on the shoulder and said: "He died for me, so I will give him the surname of the country... Liu Wei, Feng Zhongyonghou..."

Xiao Yu opened the opponent's hand with a palm: "Who cares about your country's surname and your title!"

Looking at the back of Xiao Yu staggering away, the new emperor smiled helplessly, turned around, and looked at the ruins of the former Ripple Palace. The sky in the distance was gloomy, which seemed to indicate that a heavy snow was coming.

Xiao Yu rode a horse out of the palace, and the sky began to drift with tiny snowflakes. He couldn't see or hear anything, his body seemed to be out of conscious control, and he just kept moving forward.

No, he was already unconscious, his soul was pulled away and floated into the air, looking down at his embarrassed self on the horse without sadness or joy.I don't know how long it has passed, and I don't know where I went.

He didn't know when he returned to Prince Liang's mansion, he looked up in a daze, and saw several white lanterns under the eaves quietly lighting up, which was the only warm color in the whole boundless world.

There was silence everywhere, his body was covered with white snowflakes but he didn't know it. He gradually regained consciousness. His body was blown stiff and numb by the cold wind, but his heart seemed to be stabbed fiercely by countless knives. pain.

Lowering his head, he saw the dark blue brocade still clutched in his hands. His chest was filled with remorse. He felt his breathing was stagnant. A big stone was pressing on his chest, making it even more difficult for him to breathe. Fishy and sweet taste.

Fu Chongjiu hurried out from the house. Seeing the young King Liang on the horse with a gloomy expression, he suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood. His figure was shaky, and he fell off the horse very quickly!
