The Regent makes me unstoppable [Transmigration Book]

Shuo Yu personally sent Gu Min to Beizhen Fusi, and then returned to the palace to return to his command.

Shen Ying drove the little eunuchs out of the study to wait on them, and copied the copybooks alone in the study, but unfortunately he copied the copybooks calmly, how could he calm down because he was in a mess, one after another was wasted in the declaration, and the waste paper was spread all over the floor .

Shuoyu opened the curtain and walked into the study room. Looking at the situation on the ground, he knew that the emperor was in a bad mood. He walked to the desk and said cautiously, "Your Majesty, the Marquis of Linyang has already entered the imperial prison."

Shen Ying paused with the tip of her pen, let a large drop of thick ink drip onto the declaration, kept her motionless posture for a while, and then asked slowly: "Did he say anything?"

Shuoyu said: "Back to the emperor, the Marquis of Linyang only said that he wanted to meet the emperor, and the rest is fine." After speaking, he paused, looked at Shen Ying's face and asked tentatively, "Your majesty, do you want to meet Linyang?" Yanghou?"

Shen Ying slowly closed her eyes, so what if they met each other?

In order to make people believe that he is determined to abandon Gu Min, even if they meet, he can only tell Gu Min some unfeeling words, which will only hurt Gu Min's heart even more.

Seeing each other is like not seeing each other, how can it be ruthless to be affectionate.

Shen Ying opened her eyes, threw away the brush in her hand, shook her head and said, "No see."

Shuoyu hesitated for a while, finally pursed her lips, and decided to ask: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for talking too much, do you really believe that the Marquis of Linyang killed the old King Yong?"

Shen Ying raised her eyes and glanced at Shuoyu, she came out from behind the desk with her hands behind her back, walked to the window, raised her head and looked into the distance, "It's not about whether I believe it or not, but about the fact that the Marquis of Linyang must die, Shuoyu, I will teach you a lesson." The truth is, the consequence of wanting everything is to have nothing.”

Shuoyu stared blankly at Shen Ying's back, feeling a little dazed. He felt that the emperor should not be so ruthless to Linyang Hou, but he didn't know how to refute it. Maybe those who want to achieve great things must give up some things, such as love.

Shen Ying clenched her hands behind her back into fists, and did not let go. Restraining her emotions, she ordered softly, "Let the people from Beizhen Fusi take care of it carefully. It will only be a few days. Don't wrong him."

Shuoyu sighed silently in her heart, "Yes."

—

Gu Min has been waiting since he entered the Imperial Prison, but in the end he still couldn't wait for the news that Shen Ying had summoned him. All he waited for was the death order and a cup of poisoned wine.

Fearing that Gu Min would not believe it, Shen Ying wrote the imperial decree in her own hand, and sent Shuoyu to go to the imperial prison to deliver the decree.

Gu Min didn't kneel down to accept the order, Shuoyu stood in the innermost corner of the cell with his back facing the announcement, his figure was still tall and straight, motionless, like a statue, until Shuoyu finished reading the order, Gu Min didn't turn around But Shuoyu didn't urge her, she stood quietly behind and waited.

Shuo Yu watched Gu Min and Shen Ying go all the way to this day, but never thought that the two would end up like this in the end, so how could she not sigh.

After a long time, Gu Mincai asked in a hoarse voice, "Isn't your majesty even willing to see me for the last time?"

Shuo Yu said in a low voice, "The Holy Majesty said, since the affection is gone, there is no need to see each other again."

Gu Min turned around slowly. After many days of sleepless nights, the man's eyes were bloodshot and sad, but there was still a last gleam of persistence, "I still don't believe that the emperor would be so heartless."

Seeing him like this, Shuo Yu was also heartbroken, but there was nothing she could do, "Master Hou, don't blame the emperor, the emperor was forced to do nothing..."

There is no way to be forced, so I want to abandon him, so decisive, so heartless.

Gu Min felt that his heart had been shattered into pieces, and he had just experienced Ling Chi again, that's all, if he lived, it would embarrass Shen Ying, if his death could keep Shen Ying's throne stable, then he would die if he died .

Gu Min looked at the poisoned wine in the little eunuch's hand, without further hesitation, strode over to pick up the wine glass, and planned to drink it down.

Shuo Yu couldn't bear it, and when Gu Min's lips were about to touch the wine glass, he couldn't help interrupting, "Master Hou! In the end, is there anything else you want our family to bring to the emperor?"

Gu Min stopped drinking, lowered his eyes to think for a while, and finally raised his eyes and asked Jin Yiwei beside him: "Can I borrow your Xiuchun knife?"

Jin Yiwei asked Shuo Yu what he meant with his eyes, Shuo Yu nodded, Jin Yiwei took out the Xiuchun knife from his waist, and respectfully offered it to Gu Min with both hands.

Gu Min put down the wine glass and took the Xiuchun knife, hesitated for a moment, raised his hand and pulled out a strand of black silk from the bun on the top of his head. Nothing is more heartbroken, and he said with no expression on his face: "Please help me bring this to the emperor, father-in-law."

Shuo Yu carefully wrapped the strand of blue silk with a handkerchief and put it in her sleeve, solemnly said: "Don't worry, Lord Hou, our family will definitely bring it to Lord Hou!"

A cold smile appeared on Gu Min's lips, "If so, thank you very much."

Then he picked up the wine glass full of poisonous wine, raised his head and drank it without hesitation.

The pungent poisonous wine burned his throat and flowed into his stomach. A sharp pain came from his stomach. Gu Min felt a sweetness in his throat and spit out a big mouthful of blood. His mind was withdrawn from his mind little by little. It also took away every bit of Shen Ying in his memory.

It turns out that this is how death feels. Maybe it’s because he’s had enough heartache these past few days. Gu Min actually felt that the onset of poisoned wine wasn’t too painful. Lost consciousness, the body fell backwards on the ground.

A Jin Yiwei stepped forward and put his hand under Gu Min's nose to breathe, then turned his head to Shuo Yu and shook his head.

Shuoyu's eyes were flushed, she closed her eyes, and said with a sob in her voice, "Have a good burial."

—

Gu Min didn't know how long he had been "dead". When he regained consciousness, he first heard a loud sound of rolling wheels, and then he felt his body was also bumping, as if he was in a speeding car. In the carriage.

Immediately afterwards, I heard a familiar man's voice, "You are finally awake!"

Who is speaking?Impermanence or imp?

Gu Min slowly opened his eyes, and when his eyes got used to the light, he turned his head and looked at the seat opposite. After recognizing who the man was, he asked in surprise, "Why are you?"

The man was naturally Ling Qingheng. He looked at Gu Min with a smile and said, "Aside from me, who else is so powerful that he can snatch someone from Lord Yan?"

Of course Gu Min didn't believe his nonsense, sat up straight, rubbed his forehead, "What's going on? Didn't I drink poisoned wine?"

"It's fake." Ling Qingheng spread his hands, "It's not some kind of poisoned wine, it's a fake death pill that can temporarily stop breathing."

Gu Min looked at Ling Qingheng sharply. He didn't believe that Ling Qingheng had such a great ability to steal him away from Jin Yiwei's prison. After thinking about it for a while, he figured out what was going on, and his eyes lit up immediately. , hurriedly asked: "Did the emperor ask you to save me? The emperor didn't really want to kill me, did he?!"

Ling Qingheng folded his arms and nodded, "Yes, you finally reacted."

Gu Min frowned in confusion, "But why did the emperor do this?"

Ling Qingheng explained: "The queen mother, that old witch, has already told those vassal kings who participated in the frame-up of Prince Zhaohuai about your true identity. If you continue to stay with the emperor, you will just give them a reason to rebel, so You can't stay in the capital."

Gu Min disagreed and said: "Then you should tell me the plan, so I thought..."

Ling Qingheng smiled and said: "If I told you, with your temperament, you would obediently cooperate to leave the capital? If I told you, how could you act so realistically, so that those vassal kings in the capital believe that you are real?" Did you die in despair?"

Gu Min thought for a while, but couldn't find a reason to refute for a while, and realized that the carriage was still moving forward belatedly, so he lifted the curtain and looked out the window, asking, "Where are we going now?"

"Send you away." Ling Qingheng threw the bag next to the seat to Gu Min, "I can't take you too far, the person sent by Pingyang Palace to meet you is not far ahead, the emperor wants you to go back to southern Xinjiang first ..."

Gu Min interrupted Ling Qingheng without hesitation, "No, I can't let the emperor stay in the capital alone! Since those people think I'm dead, I can return to the capital with a different identity, as long as I'm careful not to be discovered. "

"Listen to me first, are you done?" Ling Qingheng rolled his eyes, "The emperor asked you to go back to the southern border to recruit troops and buy horses, and when the time is right, you should cooperate with the imperial army and catch those vassal kings by surprise. Now you are alone Back in the capital, my subordinates have no soldiers and no power, how much can I help the emperor? Why don’t you listen to the emperor and go back to southern Xinjiang to hide your strength and bide your time for a big plan.”

After hearing Ling Qingheng finish speaking, Gu Min pondered for a moment with downcast eyes. Seeing that he was still hesitant, Ling Qingheng patted his chest.He said: "Don't worry, I will help you take good care of the emperor, and I will never let anyone have a chance to hurt the emperor, so don't you worry?"

It's fine if Ling Qingheng doesn't say anything, but how can Gu Min feel relieved when he says that? He frowned, stared at Ling Qingheng sharply, and his tone was full of warning: "Who needs your help? I warn you, you leave Stay away, Your Majesty."

"...What do you mean? No," Ling Qingheng was speechless for a while, frowning, "Do you think that everyone has the same addiction as you? The care I am talking about is the care between the monarch and his ministers. What do you think it is?" ? Kindly treat it like a donkey's liver and lungs, who are you!"

Gu Min was not in the mood to listen to Ling Qingheng's gags. Although he narrowly escaped this time, he realized that Shen Ying did not want to kill him, but before he could be happy, he knew that they would be separated from each other, and they didn't know how long they would be apart. , It's no better than letting him die.

His emperor is really ruthless, it's okay to hide so many things from him secretly, when the two of them met again, they didn't know what year and month it was, and Shen Ying didn't come to see him for the last time before parting, how could he bear it I have suffered from the pain of lovesickness day and night for such a long time.

Ling Qingheng looked at Gu Min in a daze, and suddenly remembered something, and it hit him big.The leg said: "Oh, by the way, the emperor still has a few words for me to bring to you."

Gu Min came back to his senses, "What?"

Ling Qingheng said: "The emperor said, 'The mountains and rivers meet each other, I hope you will cherish it more, the love is not over yet, there will always be a time to see you again'. So don't be too sad, as long as those vassal kings are wiped out, you and the emperor See you soon."

"The love is not over yet, there will always be a time to see you again", Gu Min heard from these two sentences that Shen Ying was actually very reluctant to part with him, so she smiled lightly and nodded.

The carriage stopped suddenly, Ling Qingheng opened the curtain to look outside, and said to Gu Min: "You are from Pingyang Palace, then I will take you here, take care of yourself along the way." Putting down the curtain, he thought about it and asked again , "Do you have anything else you want me to convey to the emperor for you?"

Gu Min recalled that before drinking the "poisoned wine" in the imperial prison, Shuo Yu had asked him almost the same thing, but at that time he thought that Shen Ying was heartless and righteous and really wanted to kill him, so he swung his sword to kill him. Qingsi, Shuoyu didn't bring the rest of the sentence to Shen Ying, and she didn't know how sad Shen Ying would feel after seeing his broken hair.

When Gu Min thought of this, his heart ached unbearably, and he really wanted to go back to the past and slap himself twice.

Gu Min closed his eyes and took a deep breath, opened his eyes and looked at Ling Qingheng firmly, and said in a deep voice: "Please go back and tell the emperor for me, I will definitely return to Beijing in a good manner, and hand over this peaceful and prosperous age to the imperial court." !"

—

It took Gu Min less than a year to transform from a male favorite to a powerful Marquis of Linyang for a while, but it was like a flash in the pan from his gaining favor to losing his power. After the people in the capital knew the news of Linyanghou's death, , They all sighed with emotion what can be done if they are favored by the emperor again, the king's heart is unpredictable, it doesn't mean that if you give death, you will die, the most ruthless emperor's family!

However, there has never been a lack of dignitaries in the capital. People in the capital have become accustomed to seeing him build a tall building, see him entertain guests, and see his building collapse. He remembered the name of Gu Min, Marquis of Linyang.

Over the past year, there have been quite a few upstarts from the imperial court.

One is the chief eunuch next to the emperor. Because he served the emperor well, he was exceptionally promoted by the emperor to be the supervisor of ceremonies and became a high-ranking eunuch in palm seal and also the admiral of Dongchang.

The second is a newly built yamen named "Six Gates" by the emperor. The six gates are the place to investigate and handle cases, but they do not belong to the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple and the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Instead, they are directly under the emperor's orders. The leader of the sect is named Ling Qingheng, and he is the emperor's confidant. He is extremely mysterious, and all civil and military officials only know his name, and few people have seen his true face.

The third is the emperor's newly appointed national teacher.

During the royal spring hunting this year, the horse the emperor was riding was frightened and out of control, and the emperor was thrown off the horse. The ghost of Yanghou came to ask for his life, and he was terrified all day long, so he ordered people to search for Taoist priests and masters to drive out the ghosts in the palace.

But no matter how many Taoist priests and monks were invited to do it, the emperor still couldn't get sick. It wasn't until a Taoist named "Xuanyang" entered the palace to do the practice that the emperor's illness gradually recovered.

After the emperor recovered from his illness, he not only built a Taoist temple for Taoist Xuanyang in the capital, but also ordered to worship Taoist Xuanyang as the national teacher. surgery.

After the vassal kings from all over the world knew what the emperor did in the palace, they didn't pay much attention to the emperor. They thought the little emperor was capable, but they couldn't help but be frightened. The frightened bird, who doesn't care about government affairs at a young age, is addicted to cultivating immortals and alchemy, how can he manage the country well in the long run?

The ministers were also worried about the future of the Great Ying Dynasty. At first, they thought that Shen Ying had the demeanor of the previous emperors of the Great Ying Dynasty. He was so stupid and unreasonable before, so what should he do.

What is even more worrying is that the emperor has not yet had an heir. If there is a good or bad thing, the country will be in chaos, so the ministers have asked the emperor to establish a concubine as soon as possible and continue to have an heir.

Shen Ying readily agreed, and asked Shuoyu to arrange the internal eunuchs to go to various places to select beauties for the palace. Just when the ministers thought that the emperor was finally willing to fill the harem, a strange thing happened.

On the night when Xiunu entered the palace, a fire broke out in the northwest corner of the imperial city. The emperor was frightened at night and fell ill again, so he asked Taoist Xuanyang to do a fortune telling. He has no wife and no children in his life. If he is forced to marry a wife and have children, it will hinder the health of the dragon body, and his age will not last forever.

The emperor naturally believed in Taoist Xuanyang's words, and immediately ordered the beautiful girls to be sent out of the palace. The strange thing is, as soon as the beautiful girls left the palace, the emperor's illness was cured without any medicine.

From then on, when a minister came up to persuade the emperor to set up a queen and accept a concubine, the emperor summoned that minister to the Baohua Palace, and cried tearfully in front of the tablets of the emperors of the past dynasties, "Aiqing, you forced me to marry a wife and have children. Am I going to die young?"

Although the ministers felt that Zihuyu was strange and confused, and the theory of fate was nonsense, who would dare to risk the emperor's dragon body? Something is wrong, even if that person grows ten heads, it is not enough to chop off!

The matter of persuading the emperor to establish a queen and concubine can only be shelved temporarily, but the emperor's heir is the foundation of the country, how can an emperor without a queen be able to sit firmly in the country?

Then another minister came up with a way. Since the emperor was afraid of death and refused to have a son, he should adopt a son from the clan to his name and make him the prince. The dispute over the storage position caused turmoil in the court.

After seeing the minister's memorial, Shen Ying agreed without hesitation, and ordered the princes from all over the country to send their descendants under the age of five to the capital, and he selected the smartest child to be the crown prince.

When the vassal kings heard this, there was such a good thing as delivering the dragon chair to their door?Wouldn't it be a fool not to seize the opportunity?

In order to get a little more salary and rice from the court, these vassal kings had many children, and the most important thing in the family was children, so when they heard that the emperor planned to adopt a step-heir from the clan, they would not all actively participate, and They all think their children are the smartest.

A month later, the sons and grandsons selected from the palaces of the vassal princes in various places were sent to the capital one after another. More than 20 vassal princes sent almost [-] children under the age of five. Praising cleverness and cleverness is like a bragging letter that a child prodigy is alive.

Shen Ying ordered people to send these children to the inner school to study. After a month, the results of these children's studies were inspected, and those who failed were eliminated and sent back to the palace.

In fact, these children who are less than five years old are not enlightened. Some of them can't even speak well, and they can read a few words. In order for the adults to be competitive, they must compete in this inspection. After all, no one wants their children to be said to be smarter than other children, right?

Besides, don't think that this is just a competition for children, the results of these children are more valuable than the results of the imperial examination. After all, a throne cannot be exchanged for a hundred champions!

During that month, every vassal king worked hard and wrote to the capital to order people to urge the children to study hard. The pity for these young children became weapons for the adults to fight for power. During that time, the inner school hall The sound of the child crying loudly has not stopped from morning till night.

However, one month later, out of the thirty children, only ten were left to enter the final assessment.

The vassal kings with children left behind in their families are inevitably complacent, and the vassal kings whose children have been eliminated are of course not convinced. In addition to being unconvinced, they are also jealous of those vassal kings whose children can continue to leave behind to run for heirs.

As soon as the results of the first round of examinations for the emperor's selection of heirs were communicated to the palaces of feudal princes in various places, the letters of accusation sent to the palace continued.

"Your Majesty, this is a secret letter from Prince Xin's Mansion, please have a look." Shuo Yu came back from the outside, found Shen Ying who was meditating in the alchemy room, and presented the secret letter with both hands.

In order to make people believe that he is obsessed with the art of cultivating immortals, Shen Ying did a lot of superficial work. Not only did he build a pill room in Yongle Palace, but he didn't even wear dragon robes. He usually wears Taoist robes with wide sleeves. Such a fairy-tale posture.

Shen Ying stood up from the futon, took the confidential letter, opened the envelope, took out the letter paper inside and browsed, with a sneer on the corner of her mouth, she casually asked Shuo Yu: "Guess what is written in this letter from King Xin?"

Shuoyu thought for a while, and guessed with a smile: "In this assessment, the eldest grandson of Wang Xin's family failed, so I guessed that King Xin refused to accept the results of the assessment and came to complain to the emperor, right?"

Shen Ying chuckled, and shook the letter in his hand: "Not only that, he also said a lot of bad things about other vassal kings in the letter, saying that these vassal kings have bad personal morals, and their descendants are not worthy of inheriting the throne. Look , This has not yet come to a result, it has already started dog-eat-dog, if the result comes out, then they will have to fight."

Shuoyu also laughed and said: "The emperor used the excuse of adopting a step-heir to induce strife among the vassal princes. This plan is really ingenious. It depends on how many valuable things these princes can spit out in the end."

Shen Ying walked to the table, picked up the teacup and took a sip of water, "However, I didn't just use this trick to cause them to fight among themselves, I really intend to have a step-heir."

Shuoyu didn't know that Gu Min was not dead, and thought that the emperor didn't want to have an offspring because of Gu Min, so he couldn't help feeling a little sad, but he still comforted Shen Ying and said, "The emperor still can't forget Gu Shaojun? The man has passed away, and the emperor also We should look ahead, the emperor may meet someone better than Gu Shaojun in the future, if he appoints other clan sons as princes now, and when the emperor has his own prince, wouldn't it be more troublesome?"

Shen Ying looked up out of the window and smiled lightly, "No, I will never meet someone better than him."
