Only my golden finger has bugs in the world

The night was high, and the Forbidden Palace was strictly guarded. You hour had passed, and the gate leading to the outside of the palace was tightly closed.In the center of the well-proportioned temple group is a heavy and solemn hall. The gloomy shadow of the hall brings a sense of oppression, and the red bricks and green tiles on it are all rendered in ink.

A new moon covered the quiet and solemn palace with a veil. The broken moonlight sparsely penetrated the night and shot down obliquely. It shone on the heads of the golden-backed beasts displayed on the palace, shining in the silence in the night. Some blinding light.

As usual that night, the entire palace was silent.Except for some necessary places, the lights of the rest of the palace buildings were also turned off, and the masters and servants of the palaces were all ready to rest.Even if there are occasional slaves who watch the night, they act lightly when they do things. I am afraid that making noise will disturb the master's dream, which is not a small crime.

All of a sudden, a shrill scream was heard from a distance, resounding throughout the palace, the little eunuch on guard was terrified by the cry, and the palace lantern in his hand almost fell to the ground. Going there, I saw a crimson patch in the distance, the soaring flames illuminated the forbidden palace shrouded in darkness, dyed half of the palace wall red, and could faintly hear the sound of weapons clashing.

Immediately, the entire palace was in a panic, except for the palace where the officials and sons lived, which was still as quiet as if they hadn't been disturbed.

Qin Qing, the head of the palace, has been guarding outside the palace. He is neatly dressed. Standing outside the emperor's bedroom, outside the Taichen Palace, there are more than a dozen courtiers headed by the right minister. Behind him is a solemn army wearing armor and holding weapons. .

Tan Qing's young body is thin but tall and straight like a pine tree. He calmly confronted the hundreds of thousands of people on the opposite side, ignoring the pressure from the opposite side, but his eyes were quiet and lifeless.

There was an undisguised questioning in his cold voice. "It is a felony to break into the palace gate at night. The right minister and your lords are so aggressive to lead troops to break into the forbidden palace at night. They regard the palace rules as nothing and our court's laws as nothing. What is their intention?" There were only a few scared people behind him. Trembling all over, the young eunuchs who only dared to lower their heads to support each other stood a bit weaker.

The Prime Minister on the right looked calm and composed. He was wearing a formal and dignified court uniform, and said calmly: "Boss Qin, the old minister does not regard our court laws as nothing, but he is in a hurry. The situation is urgent. Your Majesty has been ill for half a month. , we were really worried, so we broke into the Forbidden Palace at night. In order to appease the hearts of the subjects and the people, the king should show his face. As for the crime of breaking into the gate of the palace with soldiers at night, I will let the king deal with it afterwards."

It has been more than a month since the new emperor ascended the throne. The new emperor is capricious. He has always been indifferent to the affairs of the upper court, fishing for three days and drying the net for two days. However, the king has been ill for more than half a month, and there is a backlog of papers handed in. It has not been moved for a long time, and now the political situation is in turmoil, another plague has broken out in the northwest region, the rebels from all walks of life have begun to move around, and the king has not been in court for a long time, these things can only be backlogged and cannot be resolved.

In addition, rumors spread among the market, guessing whether something happened to the king, the hearts of the people were shaken, and the subordinates were uncertain.

Tan Qing sneered, his expression remained unchanged, and he was not moved by what the Prime Minister said in his heart. He said coldly: "The king has already gone to bed, and please go back first, and if you have anything to do, please talk about it tomorrow. As for today's I will tell the king truthfully."

"Boss Qin." Lord Right Prime Minister took a step forward and said earnestly, "I know that the king is seriously ill and should not come to the court, but if I can allow the minister to wait outside Taichen Palace to listen to the voice of the king, it will also save me from panic. Heart."

Tan Qing shouted sharply, with a cold expression, and said unceremoniously: "If you just want to listen to the voice of the king, why do you have to be so aggressive? I think it is fake to ask to see the king, and it is true that you want to force the palace to seek rebellion."

As soon as the words 'force the palace to seek rebellion' came out, all the people standing below changed their colors.

"Boss Tan, please be careful with your words." The right minister's face changed, and he said very seriously.

"My lord prime minister, why are you so polite to this male and female slave, Tan Qing, you really think you are someone if you show some embarrassment, and you are so resistant to our visit to the king, I am afraid that the king has already Being controlled by you, I think you have the intention of treason..." The young courtier next to him is a faction of the right minister, and he has always been the only one who is right. The clown jumped out.

The Prime Minister on the right interrupted him, and signaled him not to continue talking. Tan Qing is a person close to the king and a close friend who has been with the king for more than ten years. It is not wise to provoke him, but once these words Come out, I am afraid that I have offended the other party.

He didn't want to talk too much with Tan Qing, and finally threw out a sentence, "Director Qin, no matter what, today, the ministers must make sure that the king is in the palace." More than a dozen courtiers dressed in solemn court clothes stood The old prime minister who had been immersed in the officialdom for decades at the front, and the orderly and orderly elite army behind him, all of these were silently putting pressure on Tan Qing.

The two sides were at a stalemate, one side was waiting for Tan Qing to take the initiative to show weakness, the other side was waiting for the courtiers to retreat on their own, and they did not move for the time being.

"Tan Qing!" Si Yanqing's cold and hoarse voice suddenly came from the inner hall.

Tan Qing, who stood at the entrance of the hall with a cold expression, responded respectfully and hurried into the hall.

Standing outside the Taichen Palace, the Prime Minister on the right showed a trace of surprise on his originally calm face, but immediately concealed it, but he was deeply surprised that the king did not leave the palace.

He hurriedly led the crowd, lifted his robes, knelt outside the hall and bowed, shouting: "I wait for you to see the king!"

But they saw the palace door opened with a creak, and a slender and thin figure appeared in front of them. The emperor was dressed in a solemn black robe, embroidered with fine gold thread to embroider patterns. It was gorgeous and solemn, and the mask was painted with gold and silver treasures. , looking quite extravagant and majestic, the mask covered his eyes, revealing his well-shaped chin and thin light pink lips.

That is a ruthless, heartless, high-ranking emperor.

The exposed thin fingertips were as pale as snow, with a light pink color, cold and steady, revealing a decisive danger of killing.

Right Prime Minister caught a glimpse of it by chance, and his heart trembled. It was these seemingly slender hands that killed so many people without hesitation. He didn't dare to look any more, and immediately lowered his eyelids, not daring to be distracted in the slightest. .

"I didn't know that Prime Minister You cared so much about Gu. Gu was just convalescing in the bedroom for a few days, and that Prime Minister You was willing to commit the crime of breaking into the Forbidden Palace at night to come and listen to Gu's voice." Si Yan's voice It sounded clear and sweet, but it would not be so comfortable to the ears of the ministers under the steps. It was harsh like sarcasm, which made the calm old man on the right blush.

"Your Majesty is sick." The right-hand man said, "I am also worried..." Facing Tan Qing, he could remain calm and indifferent. In the face of the cold-hearted and uncertain emperor, the reasons that were already untenable in his mouth were somewhat lacking in confidence.

"What is the right minister worried about?" Si Yan interrupted Lord Ren coldly, his eyes hidden behind the luxurious mask were piercingly cold, "I am in accordance with the law, for the stability of the government, the emperor has not reported Leaving the forbidden palace privately is a felony, and one needs to write an edict to announce the crime to the world, and burn incense to introspect. Could it be that the right prime minister led his troops here in the middle of the night because he suspected that Gu had left the palace these days, so that he could catch him? "

The right minister was slightly sweaty on his forehead, and his seemingly old and feeble body knelt under the Highness, bowing his head and not daring to speak.

At this time, a group of young guards wearing gorgeous brocade uniforms rushed over and quickly surrounded the right minister and his party. They were the Jinwu Guards who only obeyed the emperor's orders. They can take away a life, and within a few minutes, except for the ministers, the others who followed them into the Forbidden Palace at night were already killed.

Hundreds of corpses were stacked together, with their eyes open and unwilling to rest in peace. After the blood of the corpses flowed all over the ground, it slowly began to solidify. The thick bloody breath filled their breath, making people feel chills all over their bodies.

The courtiers did not dare to breathe as they watched the Jinwu Guard kill the people they brought. The notoriety of the Jinwu Guard has already spread throughout Zhongli, and at the same time, it has the deterrent power to stop a child from crying just by mentioning his name.

The leader of the Jinwu Guard, Wei Kuu, killed the most people. He was full of blood, and led all the Jinwu Guards to kneel down to plead guilty, "The subordinates are late, please punish the king."

Si Yan looked at him coldly as if he didn't smell the blood, "All Jinwu Guards will double their training in half a year. As for you, go to Dianzhao Prison to get fifty sticks."

After the Jinwu Guard left, the remaining ministers did not dare to look directly into Si Yan's eyes, nor did they dare to look at the sea of ​​corpses piled up on the ground. The two were fighting, waiting for the emperor's punishment, even the longest-lived and most experienced Prime Minister Right also began to feel uneasy.

"As the head of all the officials, the right minister assists the Prime Minister Gu. He believes in the ability of the right minister, but today's incident made him see your stupid greed, and also made him doubt the position of the right minister. Can you still afford it?" This is heavy, but it is not wrong. The right minister was named prime minister by flattering the late emperor in the early years, and his ability is mediocre. Usually, he hates people who say that he has no ability to afford the prime minister. duty.

"If that's the case, Prime Minister Right asks you to resign. As for you, your jobs will be demoted for the people, and your property will be confiscated." Si Yan's deep and slightly hoarse voice did not have any fluctuations, and his words revealed inhuman indifference, lightly decided their fate.

The legs of the kneeling ministers went limp and spread out on the ground. Except for the right minister who gave him a little ridiculous respect and let him go by himself, the others were dragged by the guards without dignity like wild dogs. and left.

Si Yan turned his back to Tan Qing, half of his face was hidden in the night, "Who is in charge of the guards in the palace today?"

"Back to the king, it's Commander Liu." Qin Qing replied respectfully.

"Send him to Dianzhao Prison." The emperor's voice was indifferent, as if he was just talking about what to have for the next meal.

But the Dianzhao Prison run by the Jinwu Guard is even more terrifying than the legendary [-]-story Hell.
