Soft-boned beauty, isn't he fragrant?

When Wuming received an urgent message to find his prince, he and Chu Gui were feeding their pets in the leopard room.

Looking from a distance, Xiao Qi teased the black panther with half a leg of lamb, "Momo, come, let's see if this goat is used to eating it?"

It should be due to the extremely appetizing reason. With a "owwow", a large piece of mutton on the child's arm disappeared into the gaping mouth.

Chu Gui, who was squatting halfway to the side, picked and picked in the tub, picked the one he was satisfied with, stood up and handed it to him again.

The master looked very comfortable, took the mutton with one hand, and pecked it on the assistant's lips, a smile of success in stealing fragrance spread on his face, and the peach blossom eyes suddenly changed into crescent eyes.

The assistant froze for a moment, and immediately, not to be outdone, took a bite back. The bitten person didn't feel any pain at all, but laughed out loud "hehe".

Wuming couldn't bear to disturb him, how many years had he not seen such a genuine and easy smile?

But the information I got just now was indeed very important, so I could only bite the bullet and approach in three or two steps, opening my mouth to spoil the beautiful scenery.

"My lord, the urgent report from Pavilion Master Ruan, Mr. Taiwei drank in the palace last night and felt unwell this morning. He has already applied for a waiver of the morning court. However, according to the private news from the spies, it is more than that simple. People are afraid that it has already... It’s gone, it’s just keeping secret at this time.”

Xiao Zhi and Chu Gui looked at each other, and they both saw deep surprise and chill in each other's eyes.

It's true that they jointly planted the seeds, but no one expected to get the results so quickly.

"Why not? Can the news be confirmed?" Xiao Qi looked a little dignified.

"It's like dying of suffocation due to vomit blocking the trachea after being drunk. It is said that he contracted a wind disease after drinking and is recuperating in bed. But such a big matter must not be kept secret for too long. It will definitely be exposed in two or three days at most. of."

This kind of seemingly accidental cause of death, Chu Gui used to be the best at it, but he had no concept of the relationship between the emperor and the Taiwei's nephew, and he was not sure if it was just a small divorce plan, whether it could be killed. Unknowingly, he looked at Xiao Qi again, and asked, "Did...the one in the palace do it?"

Xiao Qi nodded slowly, "If there are no accidents, with Cui Chenglin's method, it is easy to make a person die unconsciously."

After explaining, he himself had no sense of reality. A person who was pressing on his head like a mountain from a young age, making him breathless, just walked away without a sound?Still such a ridiculous and unseemly way to die.

A sense of relief followed, but it was not as pleasant as expected. Instead, there was a trace of confusion and sympathy.Life is in the hands of others, and you will never be able to get real freedom.

An unprecedented thought was born suddenly, and it quickly grew to an unshakable level. Xiao Qi and Xiao Wuwei must be a person who controls his own destiny.

Chu Gui didn't try to guess the emotional changes of the people around him, but his thinking was much simpler. He hadn't met Jiang Huaiwu Tong a few times, and he was a little disgusted because of his relationship with Jiang Huairen, until he knew that this guy used to treat Xiao Qi made a deadly move, and only then did those who hated Wu and Wu also regard it as a sworn enemy.

Today's news is really great news for him. He didn't know how to vent it, so he simply handed the whole wooden basin to the fence, and shouted: "Mo Mo, add more food! Big food!!"

The nameless standing on the side finally realized later, no wonder he always felt weird before, oh, the name of the lonely soul has been lost by the master.I don't know if the next one will be his turn?

……

The news of Taiwei Jiang Huaiwu's death was finally announced two days later, regardless of the shock in all directions, there was a lot of discussion among them, and in the court hall, because of his posthumous title, another war of words broke out.

The line headed by the military attache of the Jiang Clan boasted of his achievements during his lifetime, and tried his best to give the military commander the highest level of "loyalty" and the posthumous title of "Wu Zhonggong". The case of treason has not yet been settled, and the person has died and his debts have been eliminated, and he has been exempted from punishment.

The prime minister, Jiang Huairen, was said to be overly saddened by his younger brother's sudden death, sick in bed, missing today's morning court, and a row of civil servants under him had no leader. A seventh-class "Lie" character was set, and the name was Jiang Wulie Gong.

The emperor did not object.

The posthumous title has been decided, and the regulation of the funeral ceremony has become the focus of debate again. The head of a military officer of a country should have a state funeral. As a result, the focus of the discussion in court was suddenly pulled aside, and he no longer cared about arguing about a dead person.

The flag officer who came to report was obviously extremely exhausted, his face was pale, and he spit out the call for help word by word with empty eyes, and then fell down on the meeting hall. He didn't know whether he was tired or fell asleep, and completely lost consciousness. .

The battle report was passed by Cui Chenglin's hand, and it was quickly transferred to Xiao Zhi's eyes. The handwriting was a little scribbled, but the two big seals of Qingzhou State Mu and State Guard General were on it, exuding an anxious atmosphere that cannot be ignored.

In the letter, the 50 army of Beiyuan iron cavalry, led by the four kings Huyan Shuomo, has brazenly crossed the national border and fought without declaration. It has swept through six important towns on the border within three days. The peak of the soldiers has reached the city of Zion, the capital of Qingzhou. Impatient to the point of imminence, the two of them used the great seal together, begging the Taiwei to dispatch troops quickly to avoid further loss of the country.

Taiwei orders troops?

The Taiwei has already gone to Huangquan, if he can really order soldiers, it is also to order Yin soldiers, and he wants to take revenge by killing himself, the murderer.

The bitterness in Xiao Zhi's heart surged, and he was speechless for a while. He never thought that it would be such a coincidence that on the same day when the enemy country started the war for no reason, he just made up his mind to remove the huge boulder that hurt the foot, and cut the stone with his own hands. The left arm full of abscesses does not obey orders.

How good would it be if this battle could last a few days in the morning?No matter what, he has to endure until the end of this battle. Besides, if someone has an accident on the battlefield, he will be much more respectable. Now...

Forget it, the boulder has been broken, and it is useless to regret. Now that the road has been cleared, taking advantage of the situation and completely taking the general power into his hands, it is not a waste of effort.

Some sparks ignited in his eyes, and he declared in an unprecedented clear voice: "Your Majesty has just passed away, so there is no one in charge, and the widow will personally march to meet the enemy at the gate of the country. He will definitely protect the integrity of the territory and save the people from suffering!"

The hundred or so officials in the court were all stunned and immediately split into civil and military factions.

All the military officers silently agreed with the gesture. For them, the emperor as the commander-in-chief must boost the morale of the front-line soldiers, and the logistics will also be supported by overwhelming power. , so although there is no high praise, the burning eyes are clearly eager to try.

The civil officials were completely on the contrary, especially the officials headed by Situ Fangsheng, who wished to spit out to wash His Majesty the emperor soberly. He was not the emperor on horseback. He had never been in battle. If something goes wrong with the imperial conquest, wouldn't the world be in chaos?

Amidst the sound of persuasion, suddenly the word "No!" popped up firmly, with a dignified tone.

Everyone stopped talking and looked at the same place, but it was Prime Minister Jiang Huai Ren who entered the gate of the main hall and made a cold decision.

Was this the one who forcibly rushed here from the sickbed after hearing the urgent report?His face was very pale, with a distinct look of shame. It seemed that he had aged a lot overnight, and even the wrinkles on his face had become deeper. After saying these two words, he couldn't help coughing in a low voice.

It's just that the tiger is so majestic, even if he is haggard like this, after he said that no, no one talks too much, and everyone quiets down, quietly waiting for his confrontation with the emperor.

Jiang Huairen did not go to the head of the civil service team where he used to stand, but just stood in the center of the hall, staring directly at the dragon chair on the golden gate, and ruined all Xiao Zhi's thoughts with one sentence.

"The law of the country is established, the emperor has no heirs, and he is not allowed to leave Beijing. Please take back the chaos!"

Xiao Zhi's hand, which was hidden under the dragon robe, was so hard that it almost broke the side armrest, and his complexion also turned purple.

For the emperor of a country to be reprimanded as "random" in front of all his subjects, it is really a shame and humiliation, and it makes people feel aggrieved to the point of exploding.

He endured and endured, trying to argue with reason: "The prime minister's words are wrong, the law is made by man, but it is a dead thing, and there have been cases in the past dynasties that followed the trend and revised it again.

In the current situation, the enemy army is coming fiercely, and I have just broken the pillars of the sky. Only the imperial conquest can appease the army and guard the country.May I ask if I don't become the commander in chief, who can gather the three armies in a hurry, have such great prestige and be able to command like an arm? "

Jiang Huairen didn't back down, and asked in a condescending manner: "Then ask your Majesty, who will supervise the country in Beijing, His Highness King An? You are not afraid that you will become Beishou from now on, and you will never go home again!"

These words were extremely cruel and rude, almost pointing at the emperor's nose and calling him an idiot, and he concluded that there must be disasters when King An supervises the country.

Xiao Qiwan didn't expect that the conversation would suddenly turn to him, and he had already been nailed to the conclusion of conspiracy without reason, but he was indisputable, because everything was just a hypothesis, and it was not his turn to prove himself the point.

The atmosphere in the hall was tense to the point of suffocation, and the emperor's complexion became even more ugly. Everyone even suspected that he would soon be unable to hold back and yell loudly. At such a moment, Lord Zongzheng, who had always been an invisible person, suddenly came out.

Before he could open his mouth, all the officials were relieved. In terms of official position, he was one of the nine ministers just like the prime minister. In terms of seniority, he was the emperor's uncle, and he was also of the same generation as the prime minister. In addition, he was the patriarch of the royal family. It is most appropriate for him to come forward to mediate a few words.

Just listen to the Lord Zongzheng slowly say: "Your Majesty the Emperor, Your Excellency the Prime Minister, both of you share the worries of the country. Although the methods are different, the goals are the same in the end. According to the old minister, what your Majesty said is very true. The enemy army is approaching the city. The position of commander-in-chief is temporarily appointed, and he must be a high-ranking person to be able to convince the public.

However, the prime minister's words are not unreasonable. When His Majesty the Emperor personally conquered the country, the overseer must be the heir of the emperor. Now that His Majesty's knees are empty, it is really inconvenient for him to go out of Beijing and talk to others.How about having His Royal Highness Wang An as the commander-in-chief of the three armies to fight for my brother, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds? "

All the eyes of the whole hall fell on Xiao Qi, and they all looked like they had seen a ghost. King An is going to fight?The most famous lecherous dandy in Dading Kingdom who has no power to restrain a chicken?
