Startled Meng

If it was not enough for Luo Sheng to take the initiative to expose Wei Cheng's treason in the early years, then no one would allow anyone to comment on the fact that the sorcerer of Tadan's former court appeared to identify Wei Cheng.

After the fall of the Ashena Dynasty, the younger brother who was suppressed by Ashena and disappeared before his death made a comeback and beheaded all of Ashena's former cronies, leaving only a wizard running around. At the beginning of the year, he was discovered by Xie Miao, who chased him all the way and finally captured him alive. This is the reason why Xie Miao did not enter the capital after receiving the imperial edict to enter the palace.

And Xie Miao's return to Beijing coincided with the sudden changes in Beijing, and the bloody massacre on Shisanpo revealed the past. Xie Miao waited and watched, while waiting for the right time to bring the wizard out, and the right time was on his way into the city On the two young men who were rescued.

He ordered people to monitor Yu Fangzhi and Yan Cijing all the time for protection.

Wei Cheng was imprisoned, but he still had strength in the court, not to mention that if the emperor really wanted to investigate Wei Cheng, it would be impossible for Yan Cijing to leave the palace like this, and let him be placed in the monstrous waves of Ye City.

It's not that Xie Miao doesn't understand things like court strife, he only recognizes one truth.

When Tardan invaded the northern border, he saw how the northern border retreated steadily and how the border residents, soldiers and civilians were slaughtered bloodily. He saw it all with his own eyes. To this day, when he dreamed back at midnight, he still vaguely heard that the Tardan thieves were slaughtering on the border. The roar of the civilians, how could he let go of the real collaborators?

Years of hatred and pain were hidden under the scar across the bridge of his nose, and he finally threw a stone lightly into the muddy water of Da Yin's officialdom, and waited to see the huge wave that swallowed people next.

This huge wave took the lead in sweeping away the shadow that had hung over the Meng family for many years. Fourteen years after his death, Meng Xiao was finally rehabilitated, and the grievances before him were washed away overnight.The official position and reputation were restored, and later, Dr. Guanglu, Zhu Guo, and Tai Tuo were specially invited to change the former residence of Yecheng into the Jiezhong Temple to welcome the remains and continue the incense, which will last forever.

As for the culprit, Wei Cheng...

The imperial decree to confiscate the family and ask for beheading was delayed. Yu Xian looked at the empress dowager and empress who were kneeling down the steps with tears in their eyes, and finally went to the prison.

The Son of Heaven and the offender were related by blood, and no one in the court dared to mention the nine clans of the Wei family, but no matter what, Wei Cheng must die. It was the empress dowager's tearful cry that was deafening.

"Prince! Uncle is all for you! He never said that he wanted to become king by himself. He told me that everything he did was for you!"

"Without him, how would the Wei family have what it is today! Emperor, have you forgotten the days when our mother and son were stared at in the harem!"

Yu Xian guessed that the Empress Dowager had gone mad. The corpses of one hundred and nine imperial soldiers in the tunnel leading to the outside of the city had been rediscovered. Three of the five generals outside the city had pleaded guilty. And that damned Tadan wizard, the queen mother will not be ignorant of this!Now that you know, how dare you plead for him?How dare you go against the people of the world?

Yu Xian knew that he was going to be a villain who killed relatives righteously, no one dared to say that he was ruthless, maybe he could gain a good reputation for righteousness, and the shadow of killing relatives was left to him secretly.

Even so, why did he bother to go to prison?

Yu Xian looked at the big characters painted in blood red above his head, and at that moment, he wanted to turn around and leave.

Just as he turned around, an old eunuch by the door lost his footing and staggered slightly. The food box in his hand showed a crack, and the aroma of fried chicken overflowed immediately.

Yu Xian sneered, in this death cell, the only one who enjoys extravagance is his uncle, right?

"lead the way!"

Yu Xian entered the dungeon again, and Zhu Huanying followed behind him, exchanging glances with the old eunuch carrying the food box.

Wei Cheng is the only one who can enter the death row, and only Wei Cheng can be so comfortable in the death row.

When Yu Xian saw him, he was lying on the mattress and sleeping soundly, snoring loudly, and the oil on the side of his mouth was still shining. With this appearance of not being afraid of death, did he really think that he was still alive?

Yu Xian had previously ordered the death row to be sealed off, and Wei Cheng knew nothing about all the turmoil in the court. This is why Yu Xian was able to overcome his uncle's and nephew's affection in front of Wei Cheng and hold up the emperor's majesty.

Zhu Huanying, who was accompanying him, had already woken Wei Cheng up. Wei Cheng opened his eyes and saw the emperor's nephew. He was overjoyed, saluted in fear, claimed to be a guilty minister, and asked Yu Xian in a low voice when he could go out.

The light in the dungeon was dim, and Yu Xian couldn't see Wei Cheng's face clearly when he stood outside the prison. Seeing that he was dressed in white and had messy hair, he no longer looked like a prime minister who was above one person and under ten thousand people, and felt very strange.

"The sixteenth guard, Ling Rong, has pleaded guilty." Yu Xian declared that Wei Chengyong would never be released from prison.

How could Wei Cheng easily accept his fate: "Ling Rong harbors evil intentions, so what have I to do! Your Majesty has learned from you!"

If Ling Rong hadn't been promoted by Wei Cheng, how could he have achieved the position of General of the Sixteen Guards?Yu Xian thought his refutation was a bit funny, and said, "It's not just Ling Rong, the tunnel leading from the Wei Mansion's study to the outside of the city was a back road that you deliberately left behind when you planned to start trouble?"

Wei Cheng was shocked. What surprised him was not that the emperor knew his intention to dig the tunnel privately, but that the emperor's nephew had already determined that he had evil intentions. He said in surprise: "The name of rebellion is too great! I beg the emperor to clarify—"

"You still have to argue!" Yu Xian yelled, "You recruited soldiers, used your power to form cliques for personal gain, and colluded with foreigners. You had a long-standing intention of committing crimes, but Meng Xiao found out that you kept doing nothing. Before the barbarians invaded the country, you falsely accused them Collaborate with the enemy, obliterate him, and let him bear the name of collaborating with the enemy for you! Everyone has already known all this! You still have to quibble!"

The voice of refutation echoed in the prison, the young emperor outside the prison was panting non-stop, his indignation was hard to calm down, the criminals inside the prison were prostrate on the ground, their eyes were red, it is not known whether it was remorse or something else.

"Xian'er..."

"Uncle is all for you..."

"For me?" Yu Xian questioned, "Don't say that I never knew that you had a rebellious heart. Even if I knew, I would definitely not be with a rebel like you!"

"A traitor?" Wei Cheng trembled all over, "If uncle really has the heart of rebellion, why did you let you lead the army to help the north and make great military achievements? At that time, the crown prince lost his sacred heart because of Meng Xiao's burden, and the late emperor was weak. Is there any reason to lead troops to force the palace at that time?"

"The crown prince's loss of power is a foregone conclusion! The second prince is born with inadequacy, this throne is held in your hands by uncle!"

His mother and concubine said so, and his own uncle said so, how many times would he have to hear these words?Yu Xian's impatience reached its peak, and he snapped, "Shut up!"

Yu Xian grabbed the railing, squeezed into half of the ferocious face, gritted his teeth, and said, "It's not that I want you to be a foreigner! It's not that I want you to poison the prince! Everything is your fault!"

Yu Xian knelt down, stretched his hand into the prison, pointed at Wei Cheng, and said angrily: "You are under one person and above ten thousand. You allow your relatives to deceive the upper and lower, and make trouble for one side. You form cliques for personal gain, manipulate scientific research, and for your own personal grievances. Abandoning all the people in the disaster area, turning your hands into clouds and rain, to this point, is it really all for me!"

Wei Cheng was still kneeling, but his whole body was full of sternness like a wolf poised for power. He stared at Yu Xian viciously, and said ironically: "Back then, the prince's mother family was not as powerful as the Wei family, but the prince's party in the court was not as powerful as the Wei family's." You can call the wind and call the rain, if the prince hadn’t died early, how could you, Yu Xian, ascend the throne? You have been the emperor for so long, don’t you know the power in your hands? Without the Wei family, there will be the Chen family and the Li family. Do you want to Do clans with foreign surnames dominate the court?"

"Nonsense!" Yu Xian couldn't argue with Wei Cheng, but fortunately he was able to control Wei Cheng's life, so he calmed down and said coldly: "Even if you are eloquent, no one can save you, collaborating with the enemy and treason is not enough to die It's a pity, not to mention saving one's life, it is a blessing to be able to save the corpse."

The dense sweat on his face didn't care to wipe it off, Yu Xian hid himself outside the candlelight, clapped his hands, and called Zhu Huanying who was waiting in the distance and the tray in his hand.

Bai Ling, poisoned wine and dagger, let Wei Cheng choose, this is the last respect Yu Xian can give his uncle.

Wei Cheng glanced at the tray held in front of him, raised his eyelids and stared at Yu Xian, the comforting smile on his mouth made people feel ghostly.

"As expected of the Wei family." Wei Cheng snorted, did his good nephew really die for him?But because his surname is Wei, he would lose the face of the emperor when he was promoted to the court for interrogation, and he had to be paraded in the street when he was interrogated. The people spurned him and would not care about the royal family.

Wei Cheng stretched out two fingers to touch Bai Ling, fiddled with the blade with his fingertips, and finally held the jug in his hand.

"Why don't you even have a wine cup?"

How could Yu Xian treat him harshly at this time?He acquiesced to his request, retreated one step after another, and walked to the prison softly, wanting to hear what Wei Cheng wanted to tell him.

Getting closer, the pungent poisonous gas in the wine glass made people's eyes swell, Yu Xian leaned back slightly, staring at the glass of poisonous wine that Wei Cheng brought to his mouth, Wei Cheng opened his mouth and stretched out like a snake core Tongue, spit out a sentence that made him feel cold all over.

Wei Cheng said: "My good nephew, you were young when you came to the throne, and everyone was watching you, don't blame your uncle for controlling the government..."

"when--"

There was a crow outside the window and the sound of the cup falling to the ground at the same time, and the dropped wine cup oozed out poison, and went straight to the bottom of the emperor's boots.

Yu Xian waved helplessly, calling for Zhu Huanying's help, and staggered out of the dungeon all the way.

The nanny next to the queen mother was poking her head around the corner, Yu Xian didn't bother to dismiss him, and went back to the bedroom without saying a word.

"Get out! You all get out!"

Zhu Huanying took the order to leave, drove away all the slaves in the hall, and closed the door quietly.

After turning around and going down the steps in an even manner, he suddenly shook off the floating dust and started running staggeringly. The running direction was exactly the official road that court officials must pass through to enter the palace.

Right now is a good time to sleep soundly, Yan Cijing didn't know what happened in the palace yet, but he woke up faintly, and was woken up by Yu Fangzhi.

After Yan Cijing recovered from his illness, his body was weak and it was difficult to wake up. What made him wake up was the tingling pain from the scalp, which was not very painful, but the pulling feeling was quite tortured, and the low laugh sounded from the top of his head from time to time It was really terrifying, Yan Cijing had goosebumps all over his body, and couldn't help muttering.

"Jingyuan... don't make trouble."

Yu Fangzhi stared at his red eyes and smirked, held his long, solid black hair fondly, and said to himself: "Jingping, look at your hair, it won't fall off no matter how you pull it, it's so good! !"

Yan Cijing hummed twice as a response, and then burrowed into Yu Fangzhi's shoulder with a twisted face, and soon fell into a deep sleep again.

However, he couldn't sleep much longer, and soon Yu Fangzhi woke him up. This time it wasn't pulling his hair, it was really a matter of business.

"Shocking! Wake up, Pei Yuantang came to report that the emperor has secretly let Wei Cheng out of the palace!"
