The accompanying team has already gone north to the domain of the Marquis of Yong'an. The Empress Dowager Zhou thought that the marriage would still be married, so she sent the accompanying team there first, and apologized later. Come.She insisted on the dignity of being a big country in her heart, she gritted her teeth before she couldn't find Feng Zhao and had to go north with her family's team, but now, when the bride has gone north but there is no shadow of her, she has never panicked at all. He only thought of capturing Feng Zhao and sending him there so that the marriage could be concluded as soon as possible. Since the vassals under him were attached to the dynasty, even if they had many dissatisfaction, they would not dare to make any big moves.

When the little eunuch who was in charge of delivering orders in the palace hurriedly rushed outside her bedroom to look for the prince, the emperor had just greeted her and was having breakfast.Hearing the little eunuch whispering in his ear for a while, Wang Gonggong's face, which was as white and tender as a white face, became even paler again. He waved the white dust whisk in his hand and put it on his arm, and hurriedly He walked into the bedroom.

Seeing that the prince was extremely flustered, the emperor waved his sleeves and said with a smile, "Wang Bao has been in the palace for a while, why are you so flustered?"

Wang Bao is one of the few father-in-laws with good qualifications in the palace. He has been by his side since the time of the first emperor.The body is inherently detrimental to the harmony of heaven, perhaps because of this, there are not many people who can really live for a long time. Wang Bao's surname is Wang, and now he is 50 or [-] years old. What's more, when it comes to seniority, he also served one or two during the period of the first emperor. Today's emperor calls him Baobao and calls him Daoist Wangbao.Reminiscing about some old love, Wang Bao has been serving the emperor and the empress dowager all the time in the past, and his behavior in the palace is considered generous, and he has quite a bit of prestige.

Wang Bao got the emperor's signal, so he leaned down slightly and whispered in the emperor's ear. Before he finished speaking, the emperor's face began to change. The emperor looked at the queen of Zhou, and suddenly said in a cold voice, "The queen mother Send someone to go to the Heaven Prison to suppress Lin Ziqing and come out of the Meridian Gate for execution?"

Empress Dowager Zhou paused for a moment while scooping up the bird's nest in front of her right hand, with a beautiful gold and silver nail cover on the raised phalanx. The movement of scooping up the bird's nest in the bowl was extremely elegant and beautiful. The queen mother paused for a moment, and then asked, "How? Could it be that the queen mother doesn't even have the right to deal with criminals in a prison like you?"

Tan Taiyu's face immediately changed several times, and without hesitation for a moment, he finally left the dining table, drafted an imperial decree, entrusted it to the prince, and said, "—Be sure to stop this execution before the execution ground."

Seeing the emperor's ashen face, the Queen Mother Zhou finally couldn't help but say, "...Emperor?" There was a bit of suspicion on her face, since Tan Taiyu officially ascended the throne, she has been very nervous. It is rare to see such a revealing expression on the emperor's face. Tantaiyu originally had a quiet temperament and a lot of thoughts. Everything is already under his control.However, if such a gloomy expression appeared on the emperor's face, it probably meant that things were developing out of his control.

Tan Taiyu stretched out his hand and rubbed the bridge of his nose, his words revealed a little lackluster, "I told you earlier, you shouldn't interfere with Lin Ziqing's mother's affairs."

The Empress Dowager Zhou frowned and said, "But what happened?"

Tan Taiyu sat on the soft couch behind him, and after a long time, he stretched out his hand and slowly covered his face with a low smile, and said, "Everything has been predicted by him, he really is... What a plan." It was supposed to be a gloomy expression, but after thinking about this point, a smile that seemed to be a smile that was not a smile finally appeared on his face.

Zhou Hou was about to open his mouth to speak, but Tantaiyu said unhurriedly, "The Marquis of Yong'an rebelled, and he rebelled with Rong Di Wang Yelumu." The emperor's face was naturally not good when he first heard about it. However, it calmed down for a while. At this time and when Zhou Hou said it, it was already neither salty nor bland.

Empress Dowager Zhou was stunned for a moment, then said, "Really?"

Although on the surface, it seems that I was wronged by the court first and agreed to get married, but in the end the bride disappeared. At the beginning of Yong'anhou's rebellion, it seemed like an act of will. However, if there is no full preparation, Yong'anhou will not easily The rebellion of the Marquis Yong'an only proves that the Marquis of Yong'an had already started hoarding arms, and his desire for rebellion did not arise all of a sudden. What's more, the shadow of Rongdi King Yelumu was not often seen among them.

When Tan Taiyu stepped out of the Ci'an Hall with his lower body waving, he said flatly, "I haven't seen my mother look so pale for a long time, and my mother is still in Ci'an these days. Let the palace rest in peace for a while, and let the emperor do all the hard work for him."

These words sound filial, but in fact, there is a bit of disobedience in them.It was a small reminder from the emperor to his empress mother that the harem is not allowed to participate in politics, and her outstretched hand recently was somewhat too long.

Indeed, some of the Queen Mother Zhou's actions in recent days have been somewhat hasty and unwise. Thinking about it carefully, since Feng Zhao's departure from the palace, it was too much aimed at a small political participation.Participating in politics is just a idle job set up by the emperor in recent days, and the specific division of labor under the six ministries is not very clear. For such a small official, although the Queen Mother feels resentful towards Feng Zhao because of the incident, it is far from enough. Don't be so obsessed with fighting against the emperor to pick off the head of this little official.

In the early years when Zhou Hou was in charge of politics, he was far from being so confused, but now that Lin Ziqing is involved, he is somewhat arrogant and unwise. Compared with his mother, who is wise and good at strategy, he has always been impressed. s difference.Although Tan Taiyu was not very clear in his heart, however, the incident of Marquis Yong'an's revelation sent him to the police. Lin Ziqing was a man with great foresight and foresight, and thorough and meticulous thinking. Could it be that this is the only one.

As for such a useful courtier, he certainly couldn't let him die so easily.

Thinking of this, Tan Taiyu thought of one day, he was standing on the highest floor in the imperial city, under his eyes was a majestic and picturesque mountains and rivers, Lin Shenzheng was leaning on the floor made of mahogany On the railing, Ling Feng's sleeves were wide, and he waved his arms, and in an instant, he seemed to be floating.Only the corners of his lips were slightly raised, his eyes were like stars, he said to himself, promising a hundred years of prosperity under the magnificence of the mountains and rivers.

Knowing Lin Ziqing several times, he has always been indifferent to all the prosperity and passing smoke. The camouflage under that seemingly gentle and indifferent skin is probably not as good as the Baizhang ice under the vast sea.Perhaps it was the dinner in the palace that made him a little bit drunk, and probably he showed that rare bit of madness. Talent and learning, pointing to the posture of a high-spirited mad scholar.

——Lin Ziqing is a man, he is bound to win.

Thoughts flashed too fast in his mind for a moment, and he didn't even have time to catch some of them.

Lin Ziqing.The words lingering around his mouth slowly began to become blurred, Tantaiyu lowered his head and laughed a few times, and some inexplicable thoughts in his heart were quickly abandoned by him, - he Is his subject, and he will be his only loyal king.

……

Besides, after Zhou Hou left the Ci'an Hall, the emperor sat upright on the table for a long time, and then sent someone to remove a table of breakfast. , I've recently... am I a bit of a demon?"

Nanny Gui was a servant girl who had been by her side since Zhou Hou was the first imperial concubine. Perhaps she had been with her for many years. Occasionally, the Empress Dowager had something to say, and things she couldn't say usually tried to be told to her as much as possible. In the end, I really appreciate Gui Momo's point. Gui Momo has never been a person who likes to talk everywhere, and she is quite bad at words.

Nanny Gui pondered for a moment, then said hesitantly, "The queen mother is also thinking of the emperor."

Zhou Hou waved his hand and said with a wry smile, "Maybe it's because I really can't see it."

She did admit that Feng Zhao was not the only reason why she was so obsessed with targeting a small official, she paused for a moment, before Zhou Hou said, "Gui Niang, Lin Ziqing, do you look like Wei Li?"

Nanny Gui was stunned for a moment, then said, "Master, you are talking about Master Wei, Mr. Wei?"

Mrs. Wei's son Wei Xianggong had returned to the loess decades ago, and before he passed away, he was also alone, and he was definitely childless. However, the Queen Mother mentioned Mrs. Wei's Mr. Wei Xianggong this time, and when she talked about Wei Ligui, she quickly thought of it. Regarding this matter, Nanny Gui's expression of surprise and doubt remained undecided, she opened her mouth a few times before she said a few words, "Maybe, it's just that you are worrying too much, master."

A complex look quickly flashed across Zhou Hou's face, and he said, "Every time I see him, I think of Wei Li, and Huang'er's temperament is more like the former Emperor, I am a little scared... Smiling wryly for a moment, he stopped talking and said, "Maybe, I really think too much."

This Lin Ziqing was much smarter than Wei Li back then, and his victory was more than perfect.

……

the execution ground at Meridian Gate,

Even though it is late autumn, the afternoon sun shines on people's bodies, and it still feels a bit warm and comfortable.The executioner was talking to the master next to him, looking at the sun from time to time, it was only half an hour away from the quarter to noon.

On the high platform set up a few days ago, there stood a scholar wearing a white prison uniform. The scholar sometimes stretched out his hand to block the harsh sun on one side, his eyes seemed to be closed, and his expression was dull. The officer in charge of escort said, "Kneel Exit." The scholar wearing a thin prison uniform slightly raised one corner of his mouth, held up the shackles that were tightly fastened in front of him, and said, "It's almost three o'clock in the afternoon, so let me stand Let's do it once."

The herald spoke a few words to the executing official, and the official waved his hand and said, "Yes." In his opinion, they are already dying people, and it makes no difference whether to kneel or not. Let's agree to some requirements.

Standing on the execution platform was a big bearded man wearing a thin red shirt and holding a cold sword, with a solemn expression and a fierce look in his eyes.

Among the surrounding people whispering, "Isn't this the official Lin Hanlin who is in charge of Wenzhou refugee relief outside the city?" A rare good official." "I don't know what happened, but it's really a pity." "..."

The place is bustling with people, however, although it is noisy, there is no one who comes out to make trouble. Human nature is cold, and now we are sitting together, just thinking about the excitement of the last place, and most of them don't want to make trouble and get angry , is human nature.

Half an hour later, the official looked at the sun and nodded with his master. The official patted the Jingmu Hall on the table in front of him and said, "Be quiet." Then he took the bamboo tube in front of him He took out a death penalty warrant from his pocket, straightened his face, threw the warrant forward, and finally said loudly, "—Execution!"

A fierce light flashed in the eyes of the big bearded man, he swung the heavy sword in his hand, drew the sword, and was about to swing it down, when the volleying blade made a sound of piercing the air when it swung down.

"--slow!"

A very long voice seemed to come slowly from far away, "Wait for the execution!" It was a herald who was slightly lowered and galloping on the horse, holding a golden token in his hand, " The emperor's decree! I order you to wait and wait for the execution."

The herald came neither in a hurry nor too late, just when the official ordered the execution, even the official couldn't help cursing a few times in his heart, the executioner's sword had already been swung down, it was almost too late, There was an extremely sharp sound of piercing through the air, and the bright silver sword suddenly paused in the air, and when it was cut down, it swayed to one side.

Then there was a sporadic gurgling sound of things rolling down.

Everyone was stunned,

——a freshly fried...chestnut in its shell.

……

—— On the day of your execution, I will definitely take a look at you.

——It won't be the last time you see me.

——Although you are confident that your good emperor will be reluctant to take the head off your neck, there are always accidents in this world.

--I know.

—I regard you as a friend.

——I introduce you as a drinking buddy.

--friend?

--confidant?

——Since I regard you as a friend, I will definitely not fall into the danger of losing my head at any time with my friends.

--I know.

—Maybe I will always remember you as a friend.

- Definitely not the last one.

——Among the officialdom, you are the only one.

……

"——The emperor's decree, wait for the execution!"

Finally, finally caught up.
