Chapter 2

As soon as Lianrong left, Zuo Mingyuan felt a lot more relaxed. There was someone chattering beside him. No matter what he said or did, he seemed to have an extra pair of eyes. Even if there was no malice, he felt uncomfortable.Just as she was about to sigh in her heart, feeling a little 'relieved', someone came in a hurry. She caught a glimpse of the man's robe out of the corner of her eye, and hurriedly put down the water bottle in her hand, trying to avoid it, but was called out by the man early. live.

"Your Highness!" The tone was very melodious and high-pitched, and the vermilion official clothes quickly appeared in front of her. Zuo Mingyuan wanted to run away, but was stopped by the shout, and stood helplessly. He wanted to hear what kind words this lord had to advise him .

Zuo Mingyuan pretended to have just seen Li Xun, turned around, and greeted him with a smile, "Master Li, we meet again."

"Your Highness." When Li Xun spoke, he didn't know whether it should be said that he was full of scholarly taste, or he was born to like to make his voice very long, and his whole person was also very interesting, with a round shape and a round face. He is round, his body is almost round, and he is chubby. When he runs, his whole body shakes up and down, and he likes to frown when he talks, with a look of bitterness and hatred, and concern for the country and the people.

When Zuo Mingyuan saw him coming, she felt a little headache. During these days, she had seen a lot of "loyalty" about Li Xun, and she didn't know what "new topic" he would bring to herself today.

"Master Li, do you have something to say?"

Li Xun frowned, and there were deep vertical marks between his brows.He was silent for a while, and then said: "Your Highness, the matter of your attack has been investigated. The emperor sent someone to do it." After he finished speaking, the flesh on his face drooped down in line with his expression. .Obviously very dissatisfied with this result, very worried. "Your Highness, since the emperor doesn't think of you as a brother, shouldn't it be time for you to give an order?"

Give an order, what order?

What kind of hero dream is this university scholar doing in the world again? Don't you know that "raw rice is cooked rice" and "a person who knows the current affairs is a hero"?Zuo Mingzhi is already the emperor, and he is going to be overthrown again, causing brothers to kill each other, and blood flowing into rivers for personal hobbies?

Don't talk about the previous ones, just talk about her status as a woman. After becoming the emperor, wouldn't someone else come to overthrow her?

Zuo Mingyuan smiled and said: "Master Li's words are reasonable, but this kind of thing will not be done by the emperor, I am his own younger brother, no better than others, and there is no reason, there must be some young people Misleading the truth, even you were deceived, it’s okay, you see, I’m all right now, in good health, what happened before was just an accident.”

"Accident, how could it be an accident? No matter how good it is, there will be an accident."

"There are many things that I can't explain clearly. Maybe I fell off the horse, hurt my head, and lost my memory. That's all. As long as I'm fine now, isn't it better than anything else?"

Li Xun shook his head, disapprovingly.He is a member of Zuo Mingyuan's group. In the past, he followed her extremely loyally and advised her. Recently, he has become more and more confused about Zuo Mingyuan. He doesn't care about anything anymore, and even his personality has changed. Thoroughly.

But if Zuo Mingyuan doesn't deal with it, it doesn't mean he has no idea.

He thought: "Your Highness has forgotten the past, it is inevitable that this will happen, misunderstood that the emperor treats him well, in fact, the more people around him, the more dangerous, and the people who often hurt and betray him are all people around him, whether they are relatives or friends , Your Highness is kindhearted and refuses to accept the truth. As a minister, I have to share his worries." So I agreed to Zuo Mingyuan, "Since Your Highness has said so, the old minister has nothing to say, and the old minister has nothing to say for the time being. For other things, don't disturb His Highness's rest."

"Alright, Mr. Li, go slowly."

Watching Li Xun leave, Zuo Mingyuan let out a sigh of relief.Li Xun plans for her, but she doesn't know that she doesn't care about those things at all, the throne is not what she desires.But these guys do this and that for her pitifully.

Loyalty, but it was not what she wanted.

Performing Music Palace.

Zuo Mingzhi arranged a banquet to entertain his daughter's envoy, and the celebration lasted from evening to evening.He sat at the head, accompanied by concubines and concubines from the royal family, and on the other side were Nangong Mingxiu, Wei Ying, and then all the civil and military officials, and they took their seats one by one according to the order of arrangement.

Zuo Mingzhi toasted to celebrate, and the dignitary performed singing and dancing for the envoy to appreciate.

"Princess, the two prime ministers have come from a long way. You must enjoy our Da Zuo's dance and see how it is different from your country." Nangong Mingxiu thanked endlessly.

At that time, the lights were on.The sound of silk and bamboo was played, and all the dancers were long-sleeved and good at dancing. Everyone applauded and applauded one after another.Nangong Mingxiu asked Zuo Mingzhi how to choose a candidate, Zuo Mingzhi laughed, "It seems that the princess can't wait to know the candidate for the emperor's husband, well, that's good, I ordered all the places to send unmarried adults Those who are well-educated and have good looks are selected to Dadu, and these people are deleted and selected eighteen times. After passing various assessments, a total of 18 people are selected. In terms of personality, character, and knowledge, Wen Cheng's martial arts are all outstanding, and I have heard that the king is Wen Cheng and martial arts, and he is an extraordinary woman in the world, and finally..."

Zuo Mingzhi was about to continue, when suddenly the surrounding lights went out, and a person jumped out, stabbing at Zuo Mingzhi with a long silver sword, he saw it clearly, dodged in a hurry, and shouted, "Assassin!" Above the banquet, in the darkness, he couldn't help exclaiming, the guards had already rushed out to protect him, Zuo Mingzhi was very annoyed, and shouted: "We must catch him, catch him alive." Among them, like a wandering dragon, he fights and dodges at the same time, although he is dexterous, he can't resist the large number of people of the Imperial Forest Army, he has already surrounded him among the crowd.

"Catch him! I must know who is behind the scenes." He has to interrogate who is the person who wants to kill him. If he doesn't know for a day, he will not be safe sitting on the dragon chair.

Zuo Mingzhi also suffered from the "suspiciousness" of the emperors of all dynasties. The more anxious he is, the faster the imperial army's attack will be, and the faster the assassins will not be able to deal with it. Retire as an assassin.

Under the strong attack, the assassin was seriously injured. Seeing that he was about to be captured, he swallowed the poison and died suddenly.

"Huh, it's a good deal for him. But this matter must be strictly investigated. How did he get in? Is there anyone to respond? I won't let it go easily if I disturb you."

Now light the candles and continue singing and dancing.

Zuo Mingzhi talked and laughed as usual, and everyone in Daughter Country sighed endlessly.

One person died during the banquet. Since the emperor still has the pleasure of 'continuing', the big country is not as happy as the small country.

After the meeting was over, Zuo Mingzhi asked someone to arrange for the envoy from the daughter country, while he was alone in the imperial study room, asking someone to thoroughly investigate the matter, and if the traitor was not eliminated, he would not be able to sleep well.But he has a confidant in his heart, if he can get rid of him this time, that would be great.

Zuo Mingzhi rubbed his temples endlessly, and the internal officer had already brought fragrant tea, "Your Majesty, drink some tea to relieve the hangover."

"Ming An, tell me, who would want me to die? If I die, who will benefit the most?" He asked like this, but Ming An's eyes were watching the words and expressions. He knew that what the emperor hates the most is: Jiu virtuous king.

In terms of beauty and wisdom, the thing that His Majesty hates the most is his younger brother, and he can't wait to get rid of him as soon as possible.But such rebellious words, he can't talk nonsense, if he speaks out, His Majesty will let him go if he is happy today, but if he is in a bad mood tomorrow, why not use him as a raft.

You can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately.

Ming An lowered his head and looked down, "This servant doesn't know."

"It's not that you don't know, it's just that you don't want to talk about it. You are polite. There is nothing I can hide from you. Ming An, you are very smart, but sometimes, I feel that you are a little petty and don't treat me as a friend. I might as well say it for you, the person who wants me to die the most in this world is probably my younger brother, but I can kill anyone, but he can't, he is my own younger brother, different from others, the first emperor At that time, he was very favored by the late emperor, everyone thought he would be the emperor, but they didn't know that the late emperor's biography belonged to me, everyone said that I was the one who took the throne, Ming An, you said, am I the one who took the throne? "

Ming An still lowered his eyelids and said: "Your Majesty is the destiny, why take other people's positions, this throne belongs to His Majesty in the first place."

"It's a pity that they don't understand and think that I am not as good as the emperor's younger brother."

"They just haven't realized His Majesty's wisdom."

"I don't want to kill the emperor's younger brother, but with him here, my eyelids keep twitching, and I can't sleep well every day. Ming An, what can you do?"

Ming An said he didn't know.He is a small head of internal affairs, he says what those royal private affairs do, and ignores what he says is good, and if he says something bad, the trouble comes out of his mouth.

"Zhen, it's a small idea, maybe there will be a way to get the best of both worlds."

Zuo Mingzhi's eyes narrowed, it was a kind of indescribable 'profound', maybe it was suspicious.The sudden appearance of an assassin at today's banquet is really a 'disgusting sight', which shocked many people and made him lose face in front of the envoy of the daughter country.

No matter who the person instigating the assassin is, as long as he finds out, he will definitely tear his body to pieces.He drew up a candidate in his mind, but he couldn't kill him, he couldn't kill his own brother, but if he didn't kill him, he would kill himself.

Perhaps it was his previous actions that made him suspicious.

'Perhaps he has remembered that it was I who sent someone to assassinate him last time. 'The accusation of killing his own brother is a stain after all, it's better not to make it public, but if this person is not eliminated, even if he doesn't have the emperor's dream, don't those people around him not?

He must be ruthless to cut grass and roots, otherwise, today he is sitting on the throne, and next time, he will be alone again.
