old grace

In the middle of the night, Xie Qinghe bolted the door, pretended to be a human sleeping on the bed, and left Yancheng Prince's Mansion through the window.

He and Fu Chuan did not agree on when to meet, and of course Fu Chuan could not wait to see him anytime and anywhere.Xie Qinghe held the roasted meat from Yancheng King's Stove in one hand, and ran all the way to the old house where he lived in the night. When the night was quiet, the old and dilapidated narrow alleys were silent, and the only thing that flowed by Xie Qinghe's ears Hush wind.

It feels so good to leave everything behind and run briskly to the one you love in the midst of a miserable and chaotic world.

Xie Qinghe is used to reincarnation in the world of demons, and his mind is mature enough and firm. However, the human way he practiced made it impossible for him to be completely born, to be a high-ranking immortal cultivator, and to watch the world with cold eyes.Even with countless experiences, Xie Qinghe would still feel emotional pain during the time he spent day and night beside the king of Yancheng, listening to the blood and tears of the people who lined up to cry and complain about their grievances.

Even if I rely on my heart to be strong, I don't let the huge amount of negative emotions affect me too much, the fluctuations caused by hearing and knowledge still exist.

Such a good night and clear night, the darkness covers all the poverty and suffering in this city, Xie Qinghe's goal in front of him is only the junior brother, which is Xie Qinghe's very novel experience - only when he becomes enchanted with the junior brother, and let the junior brother accompany him, can he get it Nice experience.

Xie Qinghe felt like a kid, jumping up and down for no reason, with lightness all over his body.

However, this blind joy did not last too long.

A long distance away, Xie Qinghe discovered that there was a formation outside the hut where Fu Chuan and Lin Gu lived. For the magic weapon, only a few stones were placed in front of and behind the house.

This is a spiritual method that confuses people's cognition. The proper name is the technique of obfuscation, which is also the legendary ghost hitting the wall.If the visitor can't see the arrangement of Fu Chuan, just walk towards this room, they will only keep spinning around in front of and behind the house, and will never enter the range protected by the magic circle.

Fu Chuan deliberately left a path for Xie Qinghe.Otherwise, with Xie Qinghe's uncultivated body in this life, if he wants to break the little junior's lost trace formation, he may have to squat at the door and study it until dawn.

The formation method is to confuse people's cognition to make people lose their way. Xie Qinghe found the back door left by Fu Chuan from a distance, and walked forward with his eyes closed.

After the five senses were completely closed, Xie Qinghe walked forward for almost twenty steps. Xie Qinghe opened his eyes suddenly, and there was a rotten window in front of him.

Fu Chuan had already heard the movement, so he got up from the bed, lay down in front of the window, and shouted in surprise: "Eldest brother." He lowered his voice, obviously not wanting to disturb Lin Gu who was already asleep.

Xie Qinghe rubbed his face and took a look inside.

Fu Chuan had already climbed onto the windowsill: "Get out."

Xie Qinghe reached out to hug him out, with Fu Chuan leading him, Xie Qinghe didn't have to walk through the magic circle with his eyes closed, the two of them walked out hand in hand through the cold mud, and once again came to the narrow alley and deserted street where they talked privately last time.

Fu Chuan stopped going forward, turned around and hugged Xie Qinghe, raised his head and acted like a baby: "Brother, I miss you so much."

The simple four words pleased Xie Qinghe. He put his arms around Fu Chuan and said, "I miss you too." After all, he cared about the magic circle in front of the door, so he immediately asked, "Is anyone here to make trouble? Could it be leaked?" Whereabouts?... What happened to Song Nu from the inn?"

"That's not the case. A few prostitutes lived in the inn. They secretly dug Zhao Er and Song Nu and buried them. They recommended a sociable woman to be the shopkeeper. They started business again without saying a word. I didn't mention anything about Zhao Er and Song Nu." Fu Chuan visited the inn that night, but because he had something sharp in mind, he didn't explain the details to Xie Qinghe afterwards, so he just explained something casually at this time.

"After Eldest Brother left, I took Aunt Lin to collect herbs. Didn't she want to raise a child? I'll get some herbs for her to make up for."

"I went out with her for a long time and came back, only to find that the house was turned into a mess. Fortunately, I carried all our little baggage with me, and there were only some clothes and coins at home, as well as the food and household items we bought that day. Anyway, everything that could be stolen It was stolen. Those people are really hateful, they just stole the pot, and even kicked the stove we built in the house to pieces—what kind of people are they!”

Fu Chuan was so angry, Xie Qinghe already had a rough idea of ​​what would happen, and touched Fu Chuan's face angrily and amusedly.

"Anyway, it's impossible for outsiders to do this. If you come to touch our house so easily, it must be a 'bad neighbor' nearby. So I set up a formation and hid the place. I searched for it in the middle of the night and stole it. All our 'neighbors' have visited once."

Xie Qinghe has more or less been merciful in dealing with the world, and he is never harsh on human nature, and can even be called tolerant.

It's different for Fu Chuan, as long as he doesn't provoke him, once he is provoked, his actions will be very fierce and merciless.

Fu Chuan didn't elaborate on how to "patronize" those neighbors who stole their property, and Xie Qinghe didn't ask in detail.With the upbringing of the Hanjiang Sword Sect, this incident would not cause any fatalities. However, it is Fu Chuan's turn to seek revenge. Confiscating stolen goods is an inevitable operation. intimidate.

"At this time, the theory of ghosts and gods is popular, and the Qin court also has ancient monks to enshrine." Xie Qinghe is more worried that Fu Chuan will make too much noise, attracting the prying eyes of the king's capital Wu Zhu, "Take some trouble to write a few more talismans and stick them on the doors and windows Above, to protect against danger."

Fu Chuan nodded, and reached out to grab the burden Xie Qinghe was carrying: "What is this?"

Xie Qinghe smiled slightly, sat down with him in a clean place, spread the burden, and ate the roasted meat.

"I went to see my uncle today. It is said that the Prime Minister's Mansion was as happy as a festival today, and slaughtered a dozen sheep for a feast."

Fu Chuan also enjoyed Chang Chao's food in the prime minister's mansion, but Yuexia was next to the elder brother, eating with the elder brother, the taste was different.He pinched the oily and slippery grilled mutton with two short fingers, took a bite as soon as he raised his hand, and ate deliciously: "Uncle won't urge us to go back, he said, the king of Yancheng has lost his will, Fangcun is in chaos, and I'm afraid it will fall soon. Does the Yancheng King's family also slaughter sheep?"

There is no cause and effect in Fu Chuan's words, and Xie Qinghe has no major obstacles in understanding.

Han Qu slaughtered sheep and had a banquet in the prime minister's mansion because the king of Yancheng took over the people's grievances and complained recklessly, offending the nobles of the entire royal capital.No matter how great the king of Yancheng's refusal of Chen is, this is undoubtedly political death.

Han Qu slaughtered a sheep to celebrate Yancheng King's bad luck, but Yancheng King also slaughtered a sheep for his own entertainment. Is he not worried about his situation at all?

"I can't see through this person." Xie Qinghe said.

Fu Chuan was particularly curious: "Eldest brother can't see through him?"

"Doing things is specious, and the thinking behind it seems to run counter to it. You have heard what he did last night, right? King Jing and the prince have repeatedly begged him to take care of the overall situation for the country, and he just wants to pierce the aristocratic family at this time. , spilling dirty blood all over the place. From this point of view, he is also very disappointed in Qin Ting's future, thinking that there will be no time to settle accounts after autumn." Xie Qinghe said.

Fu Chuan was already full, and he couldn't finish it, so he started to lick the honey juice on his fingers, and there were still some remaining spices.

Xie Qinghe took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands, he wiped it, looked down under the moonlight: "Huh?"

When Xie Qinghe got up in the morning, he was still wearing old clothes, and in the afternoon, Zuan sent someone to deliver the new clothes to Xie Qinghe's house.Xie Qinghe went out wearing old clothes, and the handkerchief had been replaced with a new one.Silk is soft and delicate, and it is very valuable. Fu Chuan can tell something is wrong just by touching it.

It's not the handkerchief worn by the elder brother!This is a new veil!A very expensive new veil!

Xie Qinghe explained: "He seems to be desperate for the current situation, but he is actively trying to win over me in private. Although he didn't say it clearly, I probably know that he wants to coax me to go to Qingzhou to assassinate Chen Qi."

Knowing that Xie Qinghe's undercover agent was dangerous, Fu Chuan quickly returned the veil to him after wiping his hands, and said, "It seems that he is acting?"

Xie Qinghe shook his head: "It's not like acting."

He told the legend about the most important things he had seen and heard at the King of Yancheng's side from the day before yesterday.

"I think it may be that the ten years of imprisonment have destroyed his emotions and made his thoughts less firm and single-minded. At one time, he wanted to save the country from hanging upside down, and he did not hesitate to give up everything. At the same time, he thought about despair and wanted to destroy the country at home. It was desperate before." Xie Qinghe had a hard time treating King Yancheng as an elder. King Yancheng had only lived for forty years. In Xie Qinghe's eyes, he was just a child. "He is just a human being."

"If you ask me, the King of Yancheng is nothing more than a warrior. If he really has a few feet of the city, it is enough to seek the safety of the country, and he will not be mixed up today. At the beginning, he was the uncle of the supervisor, and he still held his hand. Holding the military power of the imperial army, he was secretly taken by the emperor like this, and he was imprisoned for almost ten years for no apparent reason, and it was the emperor who kindly released him, so he had a bright future." Fu Chuan didn't think much of King Yancheng, "Throughout the ages, there have been many warriors who know how to fight, but how many of them have a good death?"

Xie Qinghe thought of King Yancheng's sick and haggard back, and nodded in agreement.

Since the king of Yancheng was appointed to supervise the country to assist his nephew, the young emperor, his operations in his life have been quite satisfactory, without any outstanding features.That is to say, when he was in danger, he was ordered to run out and kill Chen Qi. He was caught off guard and saved the dying Qin Ting's life, so he was given a godlike halo.

Fu Chuan looked at Xie Qinghe's face and asked, "Brother, do you have a good impression of King Yancheng?"

"In such a situation, I am still willing to support my sick body to listen to the cries of the subordinates, and try my best to uphold justice for the subordinates. I am finally worthy of the status of a prince." Xie Qinghe did not fully agree with Yancheng King's rough punishment method, but, compared to protecting nobles and scholars, A stupid official who treats the common people as worthless, the King of Yancheng is definitely a rare clean stream in this era.

"Ms. Jiang and Han Qu are already plotting. Today in court, Han Qu and Wang Hu accused the King of Yancheng of overstepping his authority and killing without permission. The Zhe family even sent people to Dali Temple to appeal for grievances and sue Yancheng. The king killed their family's Ping Xiaolang. The crown prince came forward to make peace with this matter, and nothing happened for the time being."

"I heard from my uncle that Han Qu and Mrs. Jiang are discussing, and they will desperately write a letter to impeach King Yancheng during this time."

"After a while, they die down."

Before Fu's story was finished, Xie Qinghe had already understood the tricky part of this plan: "East Palace?"

Fu Chuan nodded: "The crown prince took the big basket that the king of Yancheng poked. In fact, everyone knows that what the crown prince wants to protect is not the king of Yancheng, but the peace of the king's capital in the next three to five years. Han Qu has already had a different heart. The sooner he destroys the Qin court and sacrifices the capital, the more credit he will make in the Chen family's new dynasty, so he won't wait for the capital to lose its opportunity and be eaten away by the Chen family."

"The crown prince took such an urn of hot potatoes for the king of Yancheng. Han Qu intends to frame the crown prince and the king of Yancheng for plotting to usurp the throne."

"The Son of Heaven and the King of Yancheng had old grievances. Even if the King of Yancheng didn't care about the ten-year imprisonment, the Son of Heaven still worried that the King of Yancheng would hold grudges. At this time, the officials 'obeyed' the prince's persuasion and stopped attacking and impeaching Yancheng. King, even treating the King of Yancheng with three points of courtesy, the emperor must be suspicious of the crown prince."

"At that time, no matter whether it is the crown prince or the king of Yancheng, the emperor will always get rid of one. In the chaos, many things can be done."

Fu Chuan revealed the plans of Mrs. Jiang and Han Qu.

This move is too harsh.

Lang Zhongling Wang Hu, who now controls the military power of the imperial army, is the biological father of the crown princess and the crown prince's father-in-law.

The prince was young and benevolent, and was known as a virtuous man.In order to protect the world, he did not hesitate to go to the thunder himself to pick up the big basket poked out by King Yancheng.This move will inevitably win the respect of the people and win the hearts of the people.

The most pitiful thing is that the prince won the hearts of the people, but he will lose the support of the aristocratic nobles because he took over the people's grievances.

Han Qu wanted to kill the prince, but most of the nobles of the family above the court would not say anything, and they were likely to follow Han Qu into trouble.Once Han Qu and his henchmen tacitly created the false appearance that the prince has the support of the king of Yancheng and the support of the ministers, the emperor must be worried and can't sleep for a day.

——In fact, even if Han Qu did not deliberately speed up the process of making the emperor suspicious, the moment the prince gritted his teeth and carried the thunder for the king of Yancheng, the outcome of this matter was doomed.The emperor can't just sit back and watch!No matter how the prince confesses to the emperor frankly and shows that he has no selfish intentions, his "goodwill" to King Yancheng will definitely make the emperor restless.

There is a gap between the emperor and the king of Yancheng.The prince is close to the king of Yancheng.The ending is already doomed.

Xie Qinghe looked at Fu Chuan thoughtfully: "If the prince is dead."

Fu Chuan also came to his senses: "It is absolutely impossible for the King of Yancheng to open up a way out under the constraints of up and down. If he wants to save his family and country, he must regain the power of supervising the country, or sit on the throne of the emperor himself." The Son of Heaven is notorious, but the East Palace is well-known. Under such circumstances, he has no room for power, so he can only find another way—elder brother, I said that he has no city mansion, but I was wrong."

Xie Qinghe patted his head and said: "You have time to see Aunt and remind her of this matter. If King Yancheng takes power, Han Qu will surely die. Safety."

Speaking of this, Xie Qinghe looked calm: "One day, I will not let Yancheng King live to proclaim himself emperor."

Fu Chuan keenly noticed that Xie Qinghe was not in a good mood, so he sighed.

The king of Yancheng is surnamed Yu, he wants to guard the country and the temple, and it is absolutely impossible to surrender to the Chen family.Xie Qinghe and Fu Chuan's surnames are Chen, and at the current situation, it is even more impossible to let the king of Qin Ting hang alone.Only when the old order and the royal family are completely annihilated can the new dynasty come.

"He was born in the wrong place." Fu said.

Xie Qinghe stopped talking about this topic, and asked Fu Chuan instead: "I haven't seen you for two days, how are you eating and drinking? Are you getting along well with Lin Gu?"

Fu Chuan nodded: "I went to my uncle's place to get some food. All the meat and vegetables on the street are of poor quality. I heard that something happened to one of the meat sellers. Now there is a food shortage in the capital..." He He said to look at Xie Qinghe's face, "Uncle is also worried that my father will send someone to find us, but according to the current situation, my father did not disclose the news of his missing son at all, he directly sent Dongxian two states to The road to the capital is blocked—it used to be possible to rely on personal favors to communicate in private, but now it is completely useless."

The people always think that when the two sides are at war, the two sides will inevitably cut off the other's food road, will not communicate with each other, and will hate each other.

In fact, it is only when there is a war and it is life and death that the control is so strict.During the truce between the two sides, the aristocratic nobles in various families would do some small profitable business in private, and exchange what they had, and the spy chess pieces placed by the two sides in the opposing camp would often get mixed up in it, and the situation was very ambiguous.

Now, because of Xie Qinghe's disappearance, Chen Qi went completely crazy, and directly cut off this business route that no one would admit.

Qin Ting only knew that Chen Qi was going crazy, but he didn't know why he was going crazy, and he didn't even know that the young master of the Chen family had sneaked into the capital.

——The matter of Xie Qinghe sneaking into the capital alone was too crazy, normal people would not think in this direction.

Xie Qinghe was more surprised: "Chen Qi pinched the business, and there will be a food shortage in the capital?"

"The royal capital has been closed for half a year. How can ordinary people have so much food? It is said that the food in the warehouse is enough for the whole city to eat for three years. Most of the official warehouses are used to supply the officials of the imperial army, and the food in the private warehouse of the family is even more impossible They are sold in the market. I heard from Gu Lin that if the harvest of new wheat is poor this year, I am afraid that it will be the death of my family." Fu Chuan said that he thought of King Yancheng again, "Maybe he just took a fancy to the private warehouse of the aristocratic family."

In this way, King Yancheng's plan will be more tenable. The king's capital is troubled by internal and external troubles, and King Yancheng has the heart to break through.

Facing the imminent famine, Xie Qinghe had no choice but to sit next to Fu Chuan for a while, and then parted ways and left.

■

After returning to Yancheng Palace, Xie Qinghe started his ordinary undercover career.

King Yancheng tried his best to win over him.

In name, Xie Qinghe is the guard of King Yancheng, but in fact he is more like a guest accompanying him.Every morning when he opened his eyes, Xie Qinghe went to eat and play with King Yancheng.King Yancheng is not in good health, and spends most of his daily time resting to recuperate from his illness. He doesn't exercise much, and he doesn't like to toss around at all.

Moreover, King Yancheng has servants to serve him, so Xie Qinghe doesn't need to take care of him closely.

The young and lively Zuan surrounds Xie Qinghe every day, chatting with him, playing games for fun, and showing great hospitality to him.

Xie Qinghe controls the proportions of getting along with Zuan, making himself like a really ignorant boy, gradually letting go of his guard against the beautiful young lady, and starting to rely on Zuan, allowing Zuan to enter his life.Zuan Zuan also seemed to have a tacit understanding with him, and became closer to him day by day.

The king of Yancheng never inquired about the disputes between right and wrong in the court, even if someone wrote a letter and scolded him bloody, he would "not know it at all".

Even if someone impeaches and blames him at this juncture, it is impossible for the emperor to summon him to court to defend himself, let alone question him.King Yancheng seemed to be ignorant of everything that happened in the palace, and he only cared about recuperating from his illness every day.

No one doubted his intentions and intentions.

In everyone's mind, the king of Yancheng is a noble and stalwart man who has stayed away from political struggles.

He was imprisoned for ten years by the emperor for no reason. After suffering so much grievance, he was ordered to turn the tide when he was in danger.

Such a modest gentleman, who is clearly full of martial virtues, does not fight or grab, does not mourn or complain, and is loyal to defend the country. He can be a model for all ages.

Xie Qinghe couldn't hear any news related to the court in the palace of Yancheng. Only when he went to meet his younger brother in the middle of the night could he learn the accurate court news from Changchao, as well as the countryside collected by his younger brother and Aunt Lin from the market. rumor.

Fu Chuan secretly laughed at this: "Eldest senior brother went to Yancheng Prince's Mansion originally to collect information, who would have thought that there is nothing there!"

However, both Xie Qinghe and Fu Chuan knew very well that the information they heard was not important.

The most important information at present is the every move of King Yancheng - when is he going to contact the old department, and abolish the emperor to stand on his own!

According to the design of Han Qu and Mrs. Jiang, the situation in the capital became reality step by step.

Han Qu and Wang Hu led the impeachment of King Yitong of Yancheng, but the emperor turned a deaf ear and pretended not to know.After this wave of quarrel ended, the case of Zheping's death naturally disappeared.At such a time, who would dare to ask about the crime of King Yancheng?

In order to straighten out many cases of grievances brought back from the palace of Yancheng, the prince summoned the subordinates of the East Palace and organized them into two shifts to try them day and night.

Most of these cases are not difficult cases, but if you go to investigate, there is more evidence.The painful part is how to arrest people.

To Xie Qinghe's great surprise, King Jing appeared just when the prince was in great pain. If the prince wants to be a benevolent king, he should not be criticized harshly.However, King Jing can do it.

The prince and King Jing have different mothers.According to later generations, King Jing should wish for the prince to be unlucky and be rejected by all his officials.

However, when the building was about to collapse, King Jing showed [-]% filial piety to the prince.The subordinates of Donggong were in charge of adjudicating the case, and King Jing personally led the guards to arrest people.He was riding a horse, armed with a long whip and a long knife, and as long as the East Palace issued a warrant, he would dare to smash the door of any aristocratic family.

I heard that on the night when King Jing helped the crown prince to arrest someone, King Yancheng didn't have dinner, so he turned off the lights and went to bed early.

The next morning, Xie Qinghe saw his red eyes.Apparently, King Yancheng lay on the bed with the lights off, and stayed up all night.

Xie Qinghe realized that the king of Yancheng's idea of ​​using the death of the prince as bait to abolish the emperor and stand on his own is likely to be shaken.Both the crown prince and the king of Jing are doing their best to protect their home country that is about to be destroyed. Will the king of Yancheng soften his heart in the face of these two juniors who are not hesitating about their future?

time flies.

Xie Qinghe witnessed with his own eyes that the old house where Fu Chuan and Lin Gu lived was being repaired little by little, gradually becoming firm and bright.

With the technique of obfuscation to drive away outsiders, Fu Chuan and Lin Gu managed the residence with great care, rebuilt the furniture, covered the roof with thatch, Lin Gu even raised chickens, ducks and rabbits in the yard, and planted some fast-growing vegetables.

Fu passed on her medicine to take care of her body. She lost her menstruation at a young age, and she has resumed menstruation, her cheeks are rosy, and her hair is soft and shiny.

Unlike Lin Gu, who is getting better and healthier in this gradually decent house, the whole capital is falling into chaos and starvation.

The grain on the market was gradually sold out, and the landlords, because of the poor wheat harvest, not only failed to exempt the farm laborers from rent, but instead exploited the farm laborers to force rent due to the lack of food in the market.A number of people at the bottom of the royal capital have already died, but now those who are in trouble are relatively well-off craftsmen, traders, and petty officials.

The emperor made a decree to completely forbid the people to leave the city in exile.

Even if the extremely hungry people were penniless and left alone, and wanted to find some food outside the city, they were beaten back by the city gate officials.

The most outrageous thing is that at the very beginning, the city gate officials just stopped the people who wanted to leave the city. I don’t know that day, the city gate officials began to capture all the people who wanted to leave the city.After these people were sent to prison, they disappeared completely.

There are rumors that the meat market in the back street has reopened since the gatekeepers started arresting people.

For this reason, King Jing entered the palace to express his feelings to the emperor. He angrily reprimanded the city gate officials for disregarding human life. Vegetable people are a crime in troubled times. It is my family's crime for officials in the capital to sell the bones of common people, Royal Father!"

These words angered the emperor. He picked up the incense burner on the table and smashed it on King Jing's head. He said angrily: "I only know that filial sons and grandsons love your father and do their best to protect your father's name. How can you splash ink on your father's face like this?" An evil person who smears! You say that the officials in the royal capital sold the bones of the people, but do you have any evidence? What is the intention of rushing to give the father a shit basin!"

King Jing was directly knocked out by the golden copper furnace, and he couldn't even make an excuse.

The Son of Heaven couldn't calm down, and ordered: "Drag this unfilial and vicious person out, with a spine of eighty, and don't allow him to enter the palace again!"

At the beginning, Lu Qiu committed injustice, but he was sentenced to eighty sticks. King Jing said a few words of justice for the people, but he was also dragged out by the emperor and given eighty sticks.King Jing who was knocked unconscious was beaten until he woke up, and was knocked unconscious again, and was carried home dying.

When the prince heard the news and arrived, King Jing had already been sent out of the palace.

The servants saw the prince, who had always been calm and self-sufficient, standing outside the hall in a daze.

In the palace, the emperor was lying on his couch, holding the beauty that his ministers had just presented in his arms, his face full of playfulness and joy—as if the violent anger just now did not exist, and the son who was just stunned and beaten by him did not exist. The people who starved to death all over the city did not exist.

The prince stood for a moment, then turned around slowly, holding back the silent tears before falling down.

There is a king and a father, so what can the husband say?

■

King Jing acted as a thug for the crown prince, broke down the doors of countless nobles in a few months, and offended countless people.

He was punished by the emperor and carried home dying, many people applauded secretly.And because he was violent, he was not very gentle with the people, and there were not many people who sympathized with him.

The prince sent someone to visit King Jing, but the emperor warned him that the prince's sympathy for King Jing was disrespectful to his father.

The prince was forced to plead guilty, and was punished by the emperor for self-reflection behind closed doors for ten days, and all affairs in the East Palace were suspended.

——Some cases that had to be suspended because the background of the criminals involved were too strong, were subsequently suspended indefinitely.

The prince was forbidden to go out in the East Palace, and there was nothing he could do about it.

The news that broke the prince's heart even more was quickly passed to the prince's hands through a secret letter.

The servants of King Jing's mansion came to report that King Jing's high fever persisted after receiving the stick, and the wound festered one after another. He was almost dying.

"Where's the medicine? Where's the wound medicine that I bought with a lot of money from the thief Chen?" The prince shouted at the servants in the palace, his eyes were tearing up, "Look for it quickly! If you find it, send it to King Jing! The small soldier in the thief army is still alive. How could the king of Jing die from the wound of a stick if he could have his arm broken and his intestine cut open without dying!"

■

At the same time, Yancheng Palace.

Xie Qinghe sat next to King Yancheng as a guest, and both of them were eating nai.

Following Yancheng King, he can always eat offerings from the Tian family, not to mention the usual chicken, duck and fish meat, and the fresh fruits of the four seasons for eating and playing in his spare time are also available.The king of Yancheng was very like a heavenly family. He peeled the nai and cut it into small pieces, dipped it in honey and ate it.

Xie Qinghe didn't have much interest in honey, he didn't peel the fruit when he ate the fruit, he took it in his hand and gnawed it bit by bit.

Yan Zuan hurried in and said, "King Jing is here!" There was a trace of sadness and panic in her eyes, and her usually crisp voice was also choked with sobs, "He said that before he died, he wanted to see the prince."

King Yancheng paused in the air with his bronze stick crossed, and quickly got up from the table: "Where is he?"

Xie Qinghe hurried out following Yancheng King.

He would go to see Fu Chuan every night, and the news was very well-informed.He knew the news that King Jing was punished by the emperor a few days ago, but no one expected that the palace's spine against King Jing would be so vicious, and the follow-up was the news that King Jing was infected and died.

——Of course, the imperial physicians in this era are useless, and the treatment basically depends on gambling.

King Jing had already got out of the carriage, and his servants were carrying him in on a couch.The king of Yancheng was also a sick person, he had a deep foot and a shallow foot and went out to welcome them. When the two sides met, it happened to be the Wenchun Terrace where guests were treated.

Xie Qinghe didn't approach, but stopped beside him.

"Pu?" King Yancheng held King Jing's hand hanging by the couch, that hand was still hot, but the blood was no longer beating.

He is dead.

King Yancheng held his slender hand. This hand had thin calluses made from using various weapons. The reason why it looked slender was because the owner of this hand was still a teenager.Even with the title of King Jing on his head, under the golden clothes and golden crown, this is still a boy under 16 years old.

King Yancheng has led soldiers, fought in battles, and seen too many dead people. He knows what dead people look like, and he knows that King Jing is dead.

The courtyard was silent.

King Yancheng just squatted in front of King Jing's couch, holding his hand, silent.

After a long time, King Yancheng raised his head, patted the back of King Jing's cold hands several times, and let out a heavy breath.

"Bring it back." King Yancheng ordered, and he seemed extremely ruthless to King Jing's death.

King Jing was still breathing when he got off the carriage, and he died on the way to the couch.Before he died, he still wanted to see King Yancheng, but King Yancheng was so indifferent, and King Jing's servants felt a little bit sad and angry.However, no one dared to behave wildly in front of King Yancheng, so the servants of King Jing could only endure their anger and grief, and carried King Jing's body back.

The servants of Yancheng Prince's Mansion also looked at each other in blank dismay, and no one dared to make a sound.

After King Yancheng returned to his room, he quickly went to bed and lay down on the pretext of being tired.It was noon at this time, and Zuan was very worried.

Xie Qinghe and Zuan were guarding outside King Yancheng's dormitory. Zuan lowered his voice and asked, "You knew that King Jing was dying just now from a distance? That's why you stood by the side and didn't go forward."

"Yeah." Xie Qinghe was not in a good mood either.Since he knew King Jing, he had not heard any rumors related to King Jing's moral flaws. This young man is eager to save his country, and he will use his strength wherever he can.

He may not be very smart, and he doesn't have much insight into strategic planning, but he tried hard and took on all the things he could do.

King Jing was brutally and mercilessly beaten to death by the emperor in order to speak for the people.Maybe the emperor didn't kill him on purpose, or maybe the emperor just wanted to warn him and make him calm down, but he just died so quietly.

What saddened Xie Qinghe the most was that he didn't realize that King Jing was still a child until the moment he saw King Jing's body.

"Ever since I was very young, I knew he was not a good person." Zuan Zuan said suddenly.

Xie Qinghe was a little surprised.he?

"Maybe the concubine has given birth to too many children, and they are worthless like cats and dogs. I heard that he can't even remember the sequence of the names of the prince and princess." Zuan Zan rattled with a knife. Cutting the nai on the plate, "I always thought that King Jing was very favored. He was the firstborn son of nobleman Wang, and he was born healthy and handsome. He was named king early...he is a very beloved son, right?"

"It turns out," Zuan Zuan made a sharp cut and said with a sneer, "Aizi will also die early."

Zuan is a very thoughtful girl, she was ordered to win over Xie Qinghe, in the past few months, apart from the worries and anxieties she showed when serving the King of Yancheng, Xie Qinghe has never seen her show her true feelings in other places.

At this moment, while she was cutting the nails, she was viciously accusing the emperor, which turned out to be a rare true feeling.

These words are very thought-provoking.However, no matter how curious Xie Qinghe was about Zuan Zuan's identity, he would not wait for an opportunity to inquire at this time.

He is more concerned about how the death of King Jing will affect King Yancheng?

The death of King Jing made the prince distraught, and fell ill the night he received the news.

When the news spread to the palace, the emperor was also very astonished. He cried out with real emotion, and only called out to my beloved, Father, who only wanted to educate you. How could you imagine that you are so weak and would be beaten to death with a single blow? Woolen cloth?After Wang Guiren heard the news, she starved for three days without drinking or eating. The emperor ordered the palace servants to force-feed her with a bamboo tube, and rescued her alive.

The emperor's "precious son" died, of course this matter cannot be let go.

King Jing's death was certainly not the emperor's fault. What could be wrong with me educating my son?What's wrong?The fault lies in the imperial physician's ineffective treatment!

Others can be alive and kicking after receiving hundreds of sticks, but King Jing only received eighty sticks, so why did he die?It was still alive when it was carried back, so it can be seen that everything was well in the palace, and it was cured after returning home.It's all the doctor's fault!

While the emperor decreed to give King Jing an honorable burial, he also decreed that all the imperial physicians who were in office should be executed and buried with King Jing.

In order to show his love for his son, the emperor smacked his lips up and down and asked the unborn wives and concubines in King Jing's mansion to be buried as slaves for King Jing.Concubine Jing was very unlucky. She had a son, but she couldn't take care of her, and died of a cold.The servants asked the emperor if Princess Jing was fertile or not?

The emperor was embracing the newly-acquired beauty to relax his mind. When he was asked a question, he remembered the pain of losing his son. After crying twice, he said: "How could I be willing to leave Pu'erquan with no one to accompany me? Since she If there is no child to raise under her knees, let her think about whether she should go to the spring to serve her husband."

Now that we've talked about this, what other choice does Princess Jing have?He had no choice but to commit suicide by taking poison and was buried with King Jing in the coffin.

When the seriously ill prince regained consciousness, King Jing's mansion was almost dead, the prince beat the bed and cried bitterly: "Even your wives, concubines, slaves and maidservants can't be saved, I'm sorry for you, Pudi!"

This sentence reached the ears of the emperor, and the emperor was furious again. He immediately ordered the prince to scold him for misinterpreting the father's love for the king of Jing, sowing the relationship between the father and the king of Jing, and misunderstood the government and the public. Deliberately smearing the emperor and showing his filial piety and benevolence.It's too hypocritical and shameless to elevate yourself by belittling your father!

When this edict was issued, the ruling and opposition parties were in an uproar.

Scolding too hard!

The prince could only express his apology overnight, please resign from the position of crown prince, and then ask the emperor to demote himself as a commoner.

The emperor decreed to scold him for hypocrisy. If you really know that you are wrong, if you are really a filial child, you should solve the predicament for Junfu yourself.How can you pretend to resign from the position of the Eastern Palace, but actually blackmail Junfu, so that Junfu will be stigmatized as unkind?

This will is no longer a hint, but a very strong expression.

Force the prince to commit suicide!

The news of the Yancheng Palace has never been very "well-informed", however, this imperial decree has just spread to the world, and the Yancheng King ordered the tape.

"Prepare the horse. Hurry up!" King Yancheng coughed
