after i found out my new wife was a man

Even for Emperor Jing Ren, it is far from easy to stop the rumors now.

The rumors spread so quickly, there must be someone behind the scenes, but it's just like finding a needle in a haystack, without the slightest clue as to who these people are.

——The last straw that overwhelmed the prince was a thing so grotesque and absurd that ordinary people couldn't believe it.

The emperor personally ordered that anyone who discusses privately or spreads rumors will be severely punished, and soldiers with swords crossed are constantly patrolling. Naturally, the people are trembling and dare not discuss again in broad daylight. No, but it still looks a lot better on the surface after all.

The incident took place at the Fortune Restaurant in Dongshi—although it was called that name, but this kind of unreasonable disaster at the stall was really not considered "fortune", so it would be better to just change the name to bad luck.At the beginning of the incident, a drunken guest made a slip of the tongue, and kept shouting, "The crown prince loses his virtue, and the country will not be protected." Then, within half a cup of tea, the arresters rushed to arrest him and put him in that prison.

This is not uncommon, after all, many people have been arrested for this reason in the past few days. At most, they will be locked up for a few days, suffer some flesh and blood, and pay some money.It's just that the drinker was so strange that when he saw the arrester, he panicked and ran away from the crowd in a panic.

One person ran, and a group of people chased after him. After chasing and chasing, they happened to reach the road in front of the East Palace.

It is rumored that as soon as the drinker approached, he hurriedly knelt on the ground and shouted for the prince to spare his life, crying profusely, but what he shouted was "the villain is doing things under your order, you can't cross the river and tear down the bridge", and chased after him The policeman noticed something was wrong, and immediately wanted to go forward and seal his mouth, but who knew that during the scuffle, he happened to take off the drinker's face!

Rumor has it that that face is simply fake!In broad daylight, under the eyes of everyone, the face exposed under it, with deep eye sockets and tattoos on the forehead, is the face of Beidi people!

Rumor has it that the prince not only colluded with Beidi, mutilated brothers and sisters, but also leaked military information in an attempt to plot rebellion!The hundreds of thousands of innocent people who died on the border were all written by the prince!

Rumor has it that all the facts are conclusive, and the letters sent out by the prince and Beidi in collusion are all placed on the emperor's dragon case!

Rumors...

After all, the rumors could no longer be stopped, and the uproar against Yingtian became more and more furious, not only the common people, but also the civil and military officials in the court.

And this rumor, after all, also spread to the frontier.

Even if Xie Hou issued a few more military orders and punished dozens of soldiers in public, under Beidi's ulterior motives and deliberate spreading, the rumors not only did not stop, but spread more and more.

In the middle of the night, Dagan military camp, a certain watchtower.

Three soldiers were in charge of a watchtower, and they took turns to watch the night. Looking into the distance, they were drowsy, but one of them suddenly spoke.

"Can we really win and go home?"

The person who spoke was a thin figure, who looked only fifteen or sixteen years old, and was still childish, with worry in his tone, and a little fear of choking.

As soon as these words came out, it was as if a pot had exploded on the observation deck.

"What's the fight! I'm bleeding on the front line, they're fine, not to mention eating and drinking, but also colluding with the Beidi people who are not as good as animals, leaking military information, and still a high-ranking prince! The future emperor will help the enemy win the battle, How could it be possible to win?"

"Speak carefully! Beware of being blamed!"

"Who can hear it from such a high place, General Xie really knows it, and I also recognize it."

The surroundings became quiet again, and the sobbing and sobbing of the thin figure became more and more obvious.

The strongest man among the three, the one who complained just now, rubbed his head heavily: "Fifteen or sixteen years old, my son is also your age, and he went to the battlefield before his hair grows." gone."

The last person who reminded him to "speak cautiously" was a man with a scar on his face. If you look carefully, you can see that this man is missing a finger on his left hand, which was chopped off by Beidi people, but fortunately he still has a life. Wen Yan also sighed: "I don't think about anything, I just want to go home. When I left home, my wife just gave birth to a big fat boy for me. That child is very clever, and he looks like me at first glance."

"I just can't help it, my brother...my brother didn't have it when he hit the Huancheng staff last time," the thin child's sobs became louder, almost to the point of crying, "Is my brother able to Didn’t have to die? If the prince didn’t leak the military information, wouldn’t my brother not have to die!?”

No one could answer him.

Smoke and dust suddenly rose in the distance. Listen carefully, and there seems to be the sound of horseshoes.

The strong man stood up abruptly, and shouted sharply: "Blow the horn quickly! The enemy is attacking! The whole army is on alert!"

The horn sounded high and sharply, and Beidi's army had already appeared on the horizon.

This is bound to be an uphill battle.

If it is said that the morale and military spirit contributed to the victory of the big cadres in the past, it is precisely these reasons that make them so difficult now.

The enemy's offensive was fierce and well-prepared, and the ladder was erected. Even though the arrows shot from the top of the city tower were almost converging into rain, and the hot oil and rolling stones fell heavily, the Beidi people seemed not to be afraid of pain or death. The person in front of him was already bloody and bloody, and the person behind stepped on the corpse and rushed forward.

People from Beidi continued to climb up the city wall, and then they fought together. The corpses that fell from the city wall were dripping with blood.

"General! Danger!" Suddenly there was a loud noise, but it was Master Xie who wanted to climb the city wall.

Xie Hou waved back the guards who stepped forward to stop him, and shouted: "I am dangerous, aren't the soldiers on the city wall dangerous?"

"Brothers!" It was Master Xie who went straight up the city wall. Under the sword, his back was like a piece of sky, his voice was majestic and convincing, "Behind us! It's our parents and wife!" Son, it’s the people of Dagan! One day when I, Marquis Wu’an, is here, the sky will be as high as the sky in this barracks! Brothers! The point of the blade points, help me Dagan!”

As General Xie ascended the city wall, the originally scattered military spirit seemed to gradually gather together, and the morale became higher and higher.

The voices of the soldiers seemed to be roaring, and finally condensed into one voice: "The blade points, help me to do it!!!"

And Xie Hou's figure stood there all the time, accompanied by the sound of fighting and dripping blood, until the sky gradually dawned and the enemy troops gradually retreated.

After three hours, the battle to defend the city was finally won.

As usual, Xie Houmian encouraged the soldiers, arranged the rest of the affairs, returned to the camp, but fell straight to the ground.

The guard hurriedly stepped forward to support him, but touched his hands full of blood. Xie Hou's panting was already very weak. No one knew how he persisted until the camp fell down, and no one else saw it at all. After leaving the last sentence, he passed out.

——"Secretly passed on to the military doctor, the news of my injury must not be leaked out."

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

And in the imperial city that night, it was really not peaceful.

The main hall was empty, illuminated by flickering candles, showing a bit of ferocity. Emperor Jing Ren was sitting in front of the desk, with two stacks of letters in front of him.

The stack on the left is the letterheads found in the prince's study. The earliest ones started at the beginning of last year, including designing Xu Yuanwu, leaking military aircraft, and even intending to rebel. Everything is clear.On the stack on the right, in addition to the courtier's request to abolish the prince, there are also a total of 310 letters jointly signed by literati.

This group of scholars are sour and pedantic, proud of themselves, afraid of ruining their reputation, afraid of not leaving innocence in the world, but they are not afraid of death.

"Sometimes I really want to be a tyrant and faint king, and kill all those who go against my will."

Emperor Jing Ren's voice was sinister, beside him, Eunuch Yuan bent down even further, trembling and afraid to speak.

But Emperor Jingren himself knew that he couldn't do this.

Things have developed to such a point that even if he kills all the disobedient people, people's hearts cannot be killed or deceived. Instead, they will only leave a bad name in the history books, which will be praised and refuted by future generations, leaving a bad reputation for thousands of years.

Just like those admonishing ministers in the early court, they almost pointed at my nose and scolded me for being stupid and immoral, but in order to be a wise king, they couldn't be dragged down directly.

What's more, these people are like weeds, they can't be killed.

"Preparing an imperial edict," Emperor Jing Ren said in a hoarse voice, "The Emperor Zhaoyou, He Mingrui, has a wicked and secluded nature. He does not betray even the slightest good, and does not betray the slightest evil. Looking at the situation now, it is absolutely impossible to change it. My heart I am very worried, so I will be deposed, and there is no need to establish it again. I would like to tell the emperor, the queen land, the ancestral temple and the country, to respect this."

Emperor Jingren couldn't figure it out no matter what, why the prince he had placed high hopes on would do such a thing, he was obviously the heir apparent, and I even paved the way for him personally, the future world must belong to him, no one can take it away, but So eager, can't you wait for more than ten or even decades?

After the decree was issued, Emperor Jing Ren seemed to have aged a lot in an instant, and he was no longer the cold and solemn emperor who was in his prime of life before. Fine lines suddenly appeared in the corners of his eyes, and his back also bent down. , can no longer stand up.

He sat in the main hall for a long time, and in the Eastern Palace not far away from him, the crown prince, no, it should be the deposed crown prince He Mingrui was also sitting in front of the table, looking down and wondering what he was thinking.

Now, he also knows that he has been tricked by the Beidi people. Maybe a long time ago, when he couldn't help cooperating with them for the first time, he was destined to have such a day.

But if he did it all over again, He Mingrui still didn't know whether he would cooperate with Beidi.

Because he always felt that even if it wasn't for this incident, he would have such a day.

As far as the border, there are stumps and broken arms everywhere. Soldiers who survived by chance clean up the battlefield and prepare for the next battle at the same time.

In the wounded barracks, there were more and more seriously injured soldiers either unconscious or groaning. It was like a purgatory on earth. More than a dozen military doctors were busy without touching the ground, but they didn't know how many of them could be saved in the end.

Inside Xie Houye's tent, basin after basin of blood was brought out.

The military doctor finally took out the broken arrow trapped in Xie Hou's body. In order to be able to hook into the human body, the tip of the arrow was slightly upturned, so it was not easy to take, but fortunately there was no pure poison. The military doctor finally breathed a sigh of relief and wiped it again. Cold sweat, carefully continue to bandage.

Xie Hou was wounded in his abdomen, his high fever persisted, and he still didn't wake up.

But the enemy army that had just been repelled was still waiting for an opportunity to move, like wolves on the grassland who would rush to bite as soon as they smelled a little blood.

In Ling'an Garden, Xie Linghe woke up suddenly as if he had been dreaming, panting violently, and woke up He Yaoqing who was next to him. After being hugged back to his senses, he realized that his underwear had been soaked in cold sweat.
