"Master, it's snowing, let's go in." The attendant behind him lightly put the cloak in his hand on the man's body, looking at the man's face with a slight worry.

"Ah."

The corners of the mouth of the man's cold face were slightly raised, and a slightly fair hand was stretched out from under the cloak to catch a snowflake. The snow was fleeting in the hand, and only the slight coolness left in the hand showed its existence However, the man looked at the place where it had fallen, feeling a little dazed.

"Master?" Seeing the man's movements, Xia Hong frowned slightly, his tone was full of worry, but he was helpless.

Sensing the worried aura nearby, Ying Chen came back to his senses, sighed softly, and put his hand back under the cloak: "It's nothing."

The snow fell more and more heavily, and it fell on his head and shoulders, which seemed to have turned gray.

Xia Hong stood with his master in the yard for a long time, when he heard his master chuckle slightly, he quickly looked at him, with the same cold face, what he heard just now seemed to be an illusion.

Just as he was wondering, the person in front of him suddenly turned around and went back to the room. Xia Hong quickly stopped his guessing and followed up with the waiters.

After resting in the house, Ying Chen sat on the couch and took a sip of hot tea. His slightly cold body warmed up slightly. He fiddled with the lid of the teacup, as if he was waiting for something, perhaps his own death.

The sky gradually darkened, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, Xia Hong stared at the door, Ying Chen patted his hand to signal him to relax, it was obvious who was the person outside the door, or who sent it Yes, he knew very well.

Finally, the footsteps stopped, and a few figures appeared outside the door. The great eunuch serving the emperor, Mr. Yuan Gong, walked into the room with an imperial decree in his hand, and the attendant behind him was holding a tray with a glass of wine on it.

Eunuch Yuan sighed silently as he looked at the person in front of him who also grew up under his own eyes, waved his hand, and the attendant who was carrying the poisoned wine stepped forward and walked in front of Ying Chen.

"My lord, I can't help you if you don't want to kneel down to this edict, but you know what is written in it, this old slave." Xia Hong took the imperial edict in his hand, and his pupils shrank slightly. Then he handed it to his master.

Ying Chen waved his hand, not intending to look at it, everything in front of him has already told him what the content of the imperial decree is, it doesn't make any sense whether to look at it or not, it's just a matter of death.

"Master..." Xia Hong looked at his master, is this really the only way to go?

Ying Chen ignored Xia Hong's attempt to dissuade him, and picked up the glass of poisoned wine without hesitation.Crane crest red?It is really one of the types of poisonous wine that famous ministers will bestow.

He drank it cleanly, turned the cup upside down after drinking, and raised an eyebrow at Eunuch Yuan: "You can go back and report to your master."

Eunuch Yuan knew that Ying Chen's intentions were difficult to appease. Since ancient times, princes and generals, how many of the masters with high merits would end well, let alone... Eunuch Yuan glanced at him, let alone that the person in front of him was the real regent. The king once held great power, and the emperor could not tolerate sand in his eyes.

"Slave resigns." Eunuch Yuan waved to his attendants, and led the few people who had completed the task away from the place that once controlled Yan Yuan's supreme power and the daunting person.

Looking at the back of a group of people leaving until they disappeared from sight, Ying Chen's eyes no longer seemed to want to retain the last bit of dignity even at the last moment. The corners of Yudi's mouth slightly curled up, and there was a hint of playfulness in his eyes.

Without waiting for Ying Chen's order, Xia Hong consciously went to the yard to check to make sure they had really left before returning to the house.

"Master, they are leaving."

Ying Chen nodded, stood up and patted the dust on his body casually: "Let's go."

Poisoned wine?He is invulnerable to all kinds of poisons, so let him see how the little emperor who took back the imperial power from him will clean up the upcoming mess. I hope the other party can persist a little longer and don't let him down, otherwise this scene will be terrible. It's boring.

In the middle of the night, an unknown fire broke out in the Prince Regent's Mansion. After it was extinguished, the body of the high-ranking Prince Regent was found in the ruins, but it was obvious that he had been dead for a long time.

A few days later, the people were still talking about the Prince Regent's Mansion. When the Prince Regent was in power, he was turned into a traitor and usurped the power. It is not the emperor who is better than the emperor. Now the original puppet emperor finally got back everything that belonged to him, but the Prince Regent has become a handful of loess , How can you not be happy.

In the hall of the most luxurious restaurant in the capital, people from all walks of life or ordinary people were discussing, everywhere was filled with joy about what happened in the Prince Regent's Mansion. Those who didn't know thought it was their father-killing enemy.

In this hall, a person was hiding in the crowd, he sneered when he heard the disdainful words of the surrounding visitors, stepped up the stairs, and walked to the box at the end of the second floor that was not open all the year round.

A bunch of ignorant people, what do you know.

"Come in." Before he could knock on the door, a man's voice came from the wing.

Someone pushed the door and entered, glanced at the man sitting on the window sill, turned around and closed the door, then walked to the man's side, saluted and said: "Master." The man was the former regent Ying Chen who took someone away three nights ago.

"Are you back?" Ying Chen didn't turn his head, still quietly looking at the bustling crowd outside the window.

Xia Hong cupped his fists and said respectfully: "Yes, the guards outside have already withdrawn."

Three days ago, the Prince Regent's Mansion was set on fire by thieves. The Regent failed to escape in time, and he and a group of people were burned to death in the mansion.

Xia Hong sneered in his heart, pretending, if the master hadn't expected it, who would know whether the regent died in the fire or poisoning, don't blame me for being unkind.

But the fire was really not set by them, and it was also thanks to the emperor's suspicion, fearing that his master would not die, so he wanted to burn the palace overnight, otherwise how could their plan go so smoothly, the three-day investigation was just a show, Just to deceive the common people, it will be withdrawn today, the emperor knows who did this.

"En." Ying Chen put down the teacup in his hand, "Is Chen Shu here?"

Xia Hong shook his head: "This subordinate didn't see him in the hall, so he is probably still on his way."

Chen Shu is one of the master's friends, the heir of the Chen family, the richest man in the capital, um...he is good at handling things, but he is a little lazy, but he can't be called lazy, but he is not very punctual. , then there must be one and a half who can't make it, and it's a good thing that he and the master are friends, otherwise he would have been sacked by his brothers long ago.

Ying Chen heard the slight complaint in his subordinate's tone, frowned slightly, then chuckled lightly, guessed, it was his character that was right.

Just when he was about to speak, the door was suddenly pushed open. A young man dressed in blue, holding a folding fan, and a fine jade pendant on his waist walked in swaggeringly. Sitting down at the seat opposite Chen, the servant behind him wisely didn't keep up, closed the door and stood guard in front of it.

"My lord just said why you keep sneezing on the road? It turns out that someone is dissatisfied with me." Chen Shu looked at Xia Hong teasingly, "Xiao Honghong, why don't you just say if you have an opinion? Your master is here I can’t eat you, you say no.”

Xia Hong: "..." Do you believe me?

Xia Hong looked at his master for help, Ying Chen received Xia Hong's gaze, looked up at his friend with a funny face opposite him, shook his head helplessly, bent his index finger slightly, and tapped on the table: "Okay You, I'm still here."

Chen Shu shrugged indifferently, put away his casual look, looked at him seriously, and stared at him for a long time, Ying Chen looked at him indifferently, without being affected at all, in the end it was Chen Shu who was defeated. Deep sigh.

"Tell me, what do you want me for?" Chen Shu pouted.Tsk, if he went to the Three Treasure Hall for nothing, he knew that this person would not die so easily. The ghost knew how desperate he was when he received the letter this morning.

Ying Chen raised her eyebrows: "It looks like I'm fine and you're disappointed."

Chen Shu waved the closed fan in his hand: "That's not true, let alone disappointment. How can you be so easy to disappear, just relying on that self-righteous emperor? Forget it."

"Hurry up and talk about it, and withdraw after you finish speaking, you are really not afraid of being discovered."

Chen Shu sighed. Although the emperor was indeed not very good, he had to admit that the other party was the emperor after all. He didn't quite understand why he hadn't usurped the throne, but in fact he still had a little understanding of the other party's thoughts, probably because he wanted to Let's see what happens when the emperor finds that he can't support the burden after obtaining the country through his own means.

After finally defeating the treacherous ministers and taking back the country, he found that he was restrained everywhere, and the dynasty was declining step by step.It's too miserable, this is probably the worst emperor in history, bar none.

His friend is not interested in Jiangshan, but he likes to watch, and he is not satisfied with things that are not exciting, so he wants to stir up trouble.

"It's nothing, I just want you to do me a favor." The corners of Ying Chen's mouth curled up, revealing a smile, Chen Shu couldn't help but tremble when he saw the smile on his face, a bad premonition arose spontaneously.

"What...what's the matter?" Buddha, please bless him, and hope that it will not be too miserable.

Ying Chen clicked his tongue softly, pretending to be puzzled and said: "Why are you shaking, I won't eat you?"

Chen Shu: "...." Why is this sentence so familiar? Did he just hear it somewhere?

Standing behind Ying Chen, Xia Hong looked at Chen Shu's slightly bewildered face with a smile in his heart.

"Just kidding, don't be so serious." After Ying Chen said this, the expression on his face changed, "It's not a big deal. Didn't I buy some food a while ago? What I promised General Yan will still be done."

"It's not easy to go to the imperial court, so I can only trouble you to help deliver it." As he spoke, there was an unknown smile on Ying Chen's face, "I hope that the soldiers in the northern border can stay with us during this period of time." Your Majesty, hold on to it."
