The Road to the Imperial Examinations of Farmers in Ancient Times

Li Wen would go to the palace to visit the emperor every day, but the emperor never woke up.

He is well aware of the current situation and situation of the imperial court. In fact, at this time, Li Wen thinks that it is a clear approach for His Highness the Crown Prince to take charge of the court affairs on his behalf.A country cannot be without a king for a day. Now that Dacheng has external and internal troubles, the court needs someone to come out to stabilize the situation, and the crown prince is the best candidate for this.

He didn't see Zhao Xiangyi for two consecutive days, the man just sent someone to report a letter to him, and he didn't know where he went.

The longer the emperor was in a coma, the less chance the emperor would wake up. At this time, some people in the capital began to move around.

Zhao Xiangyi didn't even come back for several nights, and he couldn't sleep at night.

I don't know what happened in the past two days, but my eyelids kept twitching non-stop, as if something was going to happen in my heart, Li Wen felt a little uneasy.

He had a nightmare in the middle of the night, he woke up, his mouth was a little dry, and he was about to get up to drink a glass of water.

what!) what! )Just-

He was startled when he heard the sound of claws scratching the door outside.

Li Wen realized who was scratching the door outside, so he went to open the door, let the dog that was scratching the door come in, touched the old dog's head, and asked, "General, what's wrong with you, you don't usually Will come and scratch at my door in the middle of the night

The older this big dog is, the less he likes to move. He always likes to find a place to sleep by himself, or to bask in the sun in the yard.

"What are you doing looking for me in the middle of the night? Could it be that you want to chat with me in the middle of the night?" Li asked.

Dahei raised his head and looked at him. He didn't know how to speak human words, but he looked into his eyes as if he was talking to him.

Suddenly, Dahei stood up and stood in front of him.

"Master, the subordinates and others are here to protect you, master." All the guards from the mansion gathered in his courtyard, and these people were all sent to him by Zhao Xiangyi.Li Wen opened the door, saw the people standing outside the door, and noticed that the swords they were holding were stained with blood, he wouldn't think it was animal blood.

Li Wen frowned and asked, "Did something happen?"

"Well, something happened. A few thieves just came to the mansion, and they have been dealt with by the subordinates and others. The third prince led people to control the palace, and the palace is probably in chaos. The subordinates and others Come and protect the master." The leading man in the group said.

Ah Chen and Ah Wu then rushed over, and the swords in their hands were also stained with human blood.

"Has something happened in the palace? Someone came here?" Sure enough, as he expected, something happened in the palace. This is not a question, it is almost certain. Li Wen's eyebrows could pinch a mosquito to death.These people came here, probably trying to catch him.

"Well, yes, I'm afraid it's someone sent by the third prince." The leading man said, "What happened to the little general? I told my subordinates and others that once something happens in the capital, let the subordinates and others protect you, master. "

The underlying meaning of these words is that the outside is dangerous, and you can't go anywhere except this house.

The corners of Li Wen's mouth twitched. Originally, he wanted to talk about going to the palace to have a look, but when he thought that he was going to the palace at this time, he must be causing trouble for others. He guessed in his heart that Zhao Xiangyi might What are you busy with?

It's just that he really can't help with these things, so it's better not to make trouble for others.

"Are you all okay?"

"The subordinates and others were not injured."

"That's good. If anyone is injured, remember to apply medicine. Everyone else is still sleeping, right? I don't have anything to do here for the time being. Find a place to rest by yourself." Li Wen is usually not very big. The group of people in Guan's mansion knew that there were such a group of people, his Liuyuan mansion seemed empty and there were no people there, and the guards in other mansions in the capital were probably not as useful as his group of people in this mansion.

Fortunately, Xiaobao and Jinwan have all gone back to their hometown at this time. Otherwise, in the situation here in the capital, it would be really uneasy for them to stay here in the capital.I don't know if they have come to the capital. They agreed before that they would come up from home after the Mid-Autumn Festival. Presumably they are already on their way.

I don't know what's going on in the palace at this time, whether the emperor is in danger, it's really worrying.

Is Zhao Xiangyi in danger, is he injured...

After sitting in the room for a while, he was a little restless. He went to the door, and when he opened the door, he saw two pillars guarding the door, and closed the door again. These people were afraid that he would enter the palace in the middle of the night. , Li Wen sighed in his heart, it is better not to let Zhao Xiangyi worry about him, these people are the people Zhao Xiangyi sent to protect him just in case.

I lay down on the bed and couldn't sleep, my mind was full of all kinds of worries, and I thought about going to Yanmen Pass, what if the barbarian really called?If the Hu people were really killed by an army of 50, their court would send troops to reinforce them.

Once there is a war, food and grass will be needed. Fortunately, the food harvests in various places this year are abundant. There should be food in the south this year, and then we can take the waterway to transport the food from there.Just fighting means death. Behind a dead soldier, there may be parents, brothers, sisters, wives and children. If it is possible to avoid fighting, then it is better not to fight.

The world is stable, the court is stable, the country is rich and the army is strong, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment.

In a drowsy state, he fell asleep again, and as soon as he closed his eyes, he entered the dreamland, and he heard the sounds of orbital clanging, killing, and shouting, and dead people were everywhere.

Our

"Kill—"

When the weapons collided, there was an orbital sound, and the barrel of the long sword entered the person's body, and blood spurted out.

At dawn, the prince led people to control the palace, and quickly captured the third prince and the people from the third prince's group. The people brought by Yang Shaokang were quickly brought under control. The failure of the third prince ended.

In this palace chaos, whoever wins and who loses, the outcome is already obvious.

"Your Highness, I found it."

"Bring it up."

The people sent by the crown prince searched the third prince's mansion for a letter contacting the Hu people, and there was his personal seal on it. The third prince colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country, and the evidence of the crime was convincing. "Take him down and lock him up."

The third prince, Yang Shaokang, and all the officials who participated in the palace chaos last night were thrown into the dungeon, waiting for the trial and disposal of the emperor after he woke up.As for the third prince's mother and concubine, Concubine Shu Gui sent someone to put her in the dungeon together, waiting for the emperor to wake up before dealing with it.

During the palace chaos last night, many people died in the palace, and several ministers died in the court. Some ministers who were dissatisfied with the third prince were killed by the third prince's subordinates.The youngest seventh prince, Yang Shaoning, died at the knife's edge. Concubine Dong Gui was also killed in order to save her son.

The fourth and sixth princes had injuries of varying degrees, but none of them were fatal.

The sun rose in the east, and a ray of sunlight passed through the palace wall and hit the dark red palace wall. The color of the blood-stained palace wall seemed to be a little darker.The clear corpses in the palace were pulled away one by one, and the palace staff wiped away the blood on the ground, walls, and pillars bit by bit.

Today's city gates are tightly closed, people inside the city are not allowed to go out, and people outside the city are not allowed to enter either.

Martial law began in the city, and the officers and soldiers were clearing up the chaotic party, and many people were arrested.

Many people in the city heard the noise last night. This morning, there were officers and soldiers arresting people everywhere in the city. The people in the city opened their doors, and when they saw that something was wrong, they all ran back home and locked them tightly. He closed the gate and dared not go out.

The shops on the street were not open, and the peddlers did not come out of their stalls. The road was empty, except for the soldiers passing by on horseback and the prisoners who had been escorted, no common people dared to run around on the road.

Our

Sunlight came in through the window, and the person on the bed moved and opened his eyes.

Li Wen opened his eyes, and saw the man standing in front of the bed, with a smile on his lips, stretched out his hand to the man, and asked, "Are you back?" He thought he hadn't woken up, but was dreaming .It wasn't until the man held his hand and blinked twice that he was sure it was the news. The man who had been on the news for two days finally came back, and he sat up abruptly from the bed.

"You really are back!"

This time for sure.

"I'll come back to see you. Don't go into the palace today, and go later." Zhao Xiangyi was ready to leave when he came back and changed his clothes. He knew that someone came to Liuyuan Mansion last night, even though he knew that those people would protect him. Good boy, he is still a little worried, he has to come over and take a look in person to be relieved.

"How is the palace?" Li Wen asked.

"It's all right, I found evidence of the Third Prince's collusion with foreign countries. I will tell you about these things later, and I will go to the palace." Zhao Xiangyi hugged his boy, and put a kiss on the boy's lips , got up and said, "It's still chaotic outside, don't run around, wait for me to come back."

"Yeah." Knowing that this man was going to be busy at this time, Li Wen had no choice but to nod, and agreed to stay at the house obediently.

Although he really wants to know what happened last night, since this person wants him to stay at the house, he is safe and sound.

Yes, then stay here honestly and wait for the outside things to be cleaned up before he goes out.

After three days, everything in the city returned to normal.

Our

On this day, the emperor, who had been in a coma for many days, woke up. As soon as he woke up, the emperor knew what happened during his coma. He knew that Concubine Dong Gui and his beloved young son were gone. Emperor Zhaozong's eyes turned red, and he said, "Concubine Dong Shi and Xiao Qi, let's bury their mother and son in the imperial tomb together."

The third prince colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country, and his status as a prince was abolished, and he was sent to heaven and imprisoned for life.

The third prince's mother concubine, Concubine Shu, abolished her status as a noble concubine and gave her a glass of poisoned wine.The palace people sent the poisoned wine over, Concubine Shu drank a glass of poisoned wine, died of poison on the spot, the body was left in the palace and no one came to claim it.

After Emperor Zhaozong woke up, he explained one thing after another, one of which was to issue an imperial decree for the prince to inherit the throne.Along with this decree, there was another secret decree, which was to send the queen to Xiangguo Temple and not return to the palace for life.

Even if there is not enough evidence to prove that the death of Concubine Zhao Shi was caused by the Queen, the death of Concubine Zhao Gui has always been a thorn in the Emperor's heart.The emperor has his doubts, and the doubter is his queen.Therefore, when the emperor was dying, the prince could succeed to the throne with these two decrees, but the premise was that the palace would go to Xiangguo Temple and be with the descendant lamp for life.

The fourth prince, Yang Shaojian, was granted the title of King Jian, and he was given a fiefdom. He took his birth mother, Concubine Gu, to the enfeoffed land immediately, and he was not allowed to return without an edict.

The sixth prince, Yang Shaojun, was granted the title of King Jianning and stayed in the capital to assist the prince in governing the country.

Except for the children who died young, the emperor supported only these six sons, and two princesses. Now the eldest son was sentenced to confinement in the mansion, the third son was sentenced to prison, and the youngest seventh son died.After ordering these things, the emperor ordered that he had exhausted the remaining strength, and the light in his eyes gradually dimmed, "Dacheng, I will leave it to you...Prince, don't let me down."

"Father, please don't worry, my son, I will live up to my father's expectations." Yang Shaomu lowered his head slightly, knelt in front of the emperor and said.

Both father and son knew what this sentence meant.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Xiao Liuyuan standing behind the crowd, and the emperor waved to his little Liuyuan.

Li Wen understood, walked forward from behind, saw the emperor stretching out his hand to him, he subconsciously stretched out his hand, and asked, "Your Majesty, do you have anything to say?" The Emperor held his hand , patted the back of his hand lightly, and glanced at the prince again, his mouth moved, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he closed his eyes when he didn't say anything.

The old man's hand slipped from the back of his hand, Li Wen's mouth opened, and he called out in a daze, "Your Majesty."

"Li Liuyuan, please get out of the way, and I will show the emperor." The imperial physician stepped forward, stretched out his hand to touch the emperor's breath, and announced solemnly, "Your majesty, there is no breath..."

"Your Majesty, you have passed away."

"Father."

"emperor……"

The prince led everyone to kneel down, and the ministers behind were crying for the emperor.

"Son, receive the decree." Yang Shaojian received the imperial decree, and immediately left the capital to go to his enfeoffment, and he was not allowed to return to the capital without an edict.In this battle for the throne, in the end he lost, and he didn't even have a chance to stand up.

But compared to the third child and the eldest child, he was luckier. He was just exiled from the capital and would not be allowed to return in the future.

Everyone in the palace simply packed up their belongings and prepared to follow the team.

"Emiang, let's go." Helping his mother and concubine to get into the carriage, a dozen or so chariots and horses left the city in a low-key manner. The servants, escorted by many guards, left the capital on this day.

After leaving the city gate, the team left far away.

Yang Shaojian, who was sitting in the carriage, looked at the city gate behind him, and they didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing for them to be able to leave the capital.

Perhaps, in his lifetime, he would never return to the capital again.

Our

"Kang-orbit-orbit-"

The bell tower rang the death knell, the emperor died, and the whole country mourned.

The people in the city heard the bell, opened the door, hung a white cloth on the door of the house, and the emperor left.

For these ordinary people living at the bottom, they only know that there is a distinguished emperor sitting in the palace, but many people have never seen the emperor in their lives.

For these people, the emperor is just a symbol, and whoever becomes the emperor does not have much influence on them.The old emperor passed away, and the new emperor took the throne. For the common people, they are more concerned about whoever can bring them a rich life is a good emperor.

And within two days, the third prince Yang Shaokang who was imprisoned was hanged to death in the prison.

And the other criminals are waiting for the trial and execution of the new emperor. What awaits them is just the word "death" on the left and right, which is just one step earlier or one step later.

One morning, the queen mother was found dead on the bed by the old man who was serving her. The body was already stiff.

Ignorant and unconscious, the queen mother didn't suffer at all when she died...
