"Presumptuous, I am the empress dowager, how dare you stop me!"

You Huan was in the back hall discussing matters concerning the new emperor's enthronement ceremony with several important ministers who are currently in power in the court, when he suddenly heard a noise coming from outside.The few people stopped talking for a while, blaming in their hearts who did not know who made the decision to release them from the palace, but they saw You Huan sitting in the chair at ease, sipping from the teacup next to him as if nothing had happened .

Several people looked at each other, not knowing what to do. After a while, they saw the butler came in tremblingly. They carefully glanced at the faces of the people. They were waiting for an announcement. Before the butler could speak, You Huan ordered: "Let her in."

"Yes."

Relieved by the order, the butler hurried out.You Tingting, who has already honored the position of empress dowager, was staring at the guard in front of the door with an angry face. When she saw the butler came back and removed the guard's obstruction, she snorted coldly and straightened her sleeves with a wave of her hands. She raised her head and led the maid behind her After entering You's Mansion, he ignored the housekeeper who was leading the way and walked straight into the mansion.

At this moment, You Huan had already come out from the back hall and was waiting in the front hall. You Tingting saw You Huan sitting alone in the grand teacher's chair from a distance in the front hall, and she stopped involuntarily as soon as she stepped, and her aggressive arrogance just now dwarfed in an instant. down.

Although she is now the empress dowager, according to etiquette, You Huan still needs to salute her when meeting her, but her father's majesty has always weighed her down like a mountain, if it hadn't involved her this time Even her son, she definitely did not dare to come to him to question him.

Looking at the silhouette of You Huan sitting on the teacher's chair, You Tingting secretly took a deep breath, continued to walk towards the hall, and stood in front of You Huan.

You Huan didn't speak when he saw the person coming, but raised his head and glanced at the butler, then got up and walked to the study without saying a word, You Tingting followed silently, and the butler knowingly left You Tingting's maid .

The parents left one after the other in silence, and outside the study, a maid just came out of the room with a tray, presumably she had just refilled the tea, and when she saw them, she carefully saluted them, and when they entered the study, He closed the door and left in a hurry.

"Father, what do you mean by sending troops to besiege the palace today? At the beginning, you only said that the Nanyue people should be the masters of the world, and you never mentioned such things as forcing the palace to usurp the throne with your daughter."

You Tingting asked straight to the point when she entered the door, and she managed to suppress the resentment in her heart with great difficulty.She grew up under her father's strict discipline, and she knew her father's temperament best. She knew that once she showed extreme behavior in front of him where emotions were higher than reason, he would immediately stop talking and continue his orders in an arbitrary way until she until forced to accept.

You Huan asked without answering, "Ting'er, how did I teach you when you were young?"

You Tingting said: "We are the citizens of Nanyue, and we must dedicate everything to the revival of Nanyue. But Ye'er has already become the emperor, and this world already belongs to our Nanyue You family. Why do you want to remove Ye'er from the throne?" Forced down?"

You Huan said solemnly: "Since South Vietnam is to be revived, it is natural that my pure Nanyue people should rule the world. If the country name does not change and the Nanyue royal family cannot be restored, what is the point of taking power? Isn't the world still surnamed Chunyu? Today It’s just to get back what belongs to us exactly.”

"But Ye'er is your own grandson, your daughter's own flesh and blood! He has the blood of our You family in him, how can you bear to persecute him like this!" You Tingting tried to play emotional cards with You Huan.

You Huan was unmoved at all: "The other half of his blood is enough to make me sick just thinking about it. Allowing him to live in the world is already my greatest tolerance. If you understand, you should persuade him now." He, let him obediently announce his abdication in front of the people of the world, so that I can allow him to be a vain prince to protect him for a lifetime of peace and enjoyment, instead of just fighting with me here."

When You Tingting heard that You Huan didn't care about the relationship between father and daughter at all, she insisted on driving Chunyuye to a dead end, and she couldn't care less about those big taboos, so she blurted out and touched You Huan's backlash.

"What's the difference between you doing this and wanting his life! My daughter tried her best to let Ye'er sit on the throne, not to let him hand over the country to others and be ridiculed by the world! If you thought this way early in the morning, why bother?" Let Ye'er be this sinner! If you are like this, how will he behave in the future, how will he face Chunyu's ancestors?!"

When she realized that the trouble came from her mouth, it was too late to take it back and make amends.You Huan's expression changed suddenly, and he turned his head to stare at You Tingting like a demon, his eyes flickered coldly, and his anger gushed out, causing You Tingting to tremble immediately.

"Now you are talking to the Chunyu family who destroyed my family. Have you ever thought about how you will face the ancestors of my You family, how to face the souls of hundreds of thousands of compatriots who died in vain! Since you insist on disobeying me There is no need to go back, just wait here for my restoration of South Vietnam."

Saying that he would not give You Tingting a chance to argue, he turned his head and left. The servants guarding the door immediately locked the door knowingly behind him, and ignored how the people inside knocked on the door and yelled.

Chunyuye, who was under house arrest in the palace that night, was sitting quietly in the dark bedroom. All the maids and eunuchs in the palace had been sent away when You Huan brought people to force the palace. He was the only one in the empty hall. Light a lamp, only the pale moonlight penetrates through the thin window paper, a little veil-like gleam.

On such a day, the moonlight always seems to be exceptionally good. Chunyuye lay half-lying on the soft couch, staring at the window paper, and couldn't help but think back to the day when the news of Chunyuyan's death came a few years ago, he was also like this A person lay blankly on the couch under the window and stared out of the window, the moon outside the window was also so bright.

What kind of mood did he lie here that day?Is it rejoicing that this too good younger brother finally died, or is he feeling that he has finally come to the step of seizing power and killing relatives, and thinking back to the past, he regrets a little?

Looking out of the window, Chunyuye fell into deep thought unconsciously, looking back at the haste during the day, he couldn't help but think, if he hadn't acquiesced in his mother's attack on Chunyuyan at that time, it would be him who is in such a situation today , Will I worry under the window as helplessly as myself.

Chunyuye pondered for a moment, and after a while he smiled silently as if mocking himself.If it were him, with his ability, he would not be forced to this point at all.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

Chunyuye was sad, when he suddenly heard someone calling him in a low voice, he sat up hastily to look, and saw a shadow cast in front of the hall door, and there was a person standing outside the door.

Everyone inside and outside the palace has been replaced by You Huan as his cronies, who will come to him at this time?

Chunyuye couldn't help being puzzled, but at this moment there was nothing to worry about.He got up from the bed and went straight to the door and opened it, the people outside the door could not be seen clearly with the light behind them.

"Why didn't your majesty light the lamp?"

The visitor didn't know whether it was because he was so nervous that he didn't realize who the person standing in front of him was, or because he didn't care about his identity at all, and spoke first on his own.

Chunyu Ye was almost the same as the king of subjugation at this time, and he didn't care about it. Hearing the voice was a little strange, he just wanted to ask, when he saw the black shadow reach into his arms and grope for a while, then his chest A cluster of fireflies lit up in front of him, reflecting a somewhat familiar face.

"You are..." Chunyu Ye wondered, looking at the person in front of him who was about the same age as him, he couldn't remember for a while.

"My minister, Zhang Shujian, works under the Young Mansion. He was supported by Master Chou and used to follow around and had the honor to pay his respects to His Majesty Longyan. However, His Majesty probably doesn't have much impression of this minister." Zhang Shujian entered the door and closed the door behind him as he spoke. He approached a nearby candlestick lit up.

Chunyuye heard that when he recalled the time he visited Qiu Guoshi before succeeding to the throne, he could often see him learning from Qiu Huijun there, and said, "I remember you. There are heavy guards outside, how did you get in?"

Zhang Shujian replied: "Before I became an official, I practiced kung fu in the mountains for a few years. This trivial matter is nothing to worry about."

"Could it be that you belong to the Xuanqing Mountain Sect?"

Chunyuye was thinking about Chunyuyan just now, seeing his skill, he couldn't help thinking that Chunyuyan has now become the head of Xuanqing Mountain School, unlike him who is at the end of the road, he has a bright future, so he asked subconsciously.

Zhang Shujian only knew that the person who sent news to Qiu Huijun was Qiu Yan, who was a mystery in his life and death and later entered Xuanqing Mountain as his fifth junior brother. He has not yet learned that he has taken over as the head and met Chunyu Ye. He was surprised when he heard that: "Your Majesty How did you know about the Xuanqing Mountain School?"

Chunyu Ye was asking casually, but unexpectedly got an affirmative answer, he couldn't help but cheered up, grabbed Zhang Shujian's arm and asked, "You really come from the Xuanqing Mountain School!? But Brother Yan asked you to save me of?"

From Zhu Lingyu's mouth, Zhang Shujian learned that his fifth junior brother was born earlier, and he didn't have a good impression of the emperor. It can be seen that he couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional about his reaction, and couldn't bear to break his expectations for a while, so he paused He opened the mouth and said: "I went to visit the Master of the National Teacher as usual today. I saw that there was an army guarding outside the Palace of the National Teacher, so I knew that there was a sudden change in the harem. It was entrusted by the Master of the National Teacher."

Chunyuye heard that the expression on his face froze, his shoulders drooped, he let go of his hand and muttered to himself: "Yes, I forgot, he won't forgive me."

Chunyuye sighed secretly, and it took a while to calm down, then raised his head and asked, "What did Master Qiu say, what did you ask you to do?"

Zhang Shujian said: "I would like to invite a token of His Majesty and write a letter by myself, so that I can send troops to the town's general to help His Majesty out of trouble."

Chunyuye thought that You Huan was thoughtful, since he was willing to give him time to think about it and was not in a hurry to kill him, he must have made a perfect plan. He had already thought of other ways to tie the Ning family, and he was not afraid of him asking for help. Qiu Huijun has been ups and downs in the court for many years I can't fail to understand this, and this move is nothing more than a dead horse treating a living horse as a doctor trying to make another dying struggle.

However, since Qiu Huijun and the others have not given up as subjects, he, a king, cannot be discouraged so quickly. If he fails, the worst thing he can do is to apologize with death.

Chunyuye was silent for a moment, then turned around and groped in the Duobao Pavilion behind him, opened the secret compartment and took out a brocade box, took out a heavy square seal with both hands, uncovered the brocade covering it, and placed it on the brocade. It was Guoxi: "Letters are nothing more than letters, you can just take this jade seal with you."

Seeing this, Zhang Shujian hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid..."

Chunyuye said indifferently: "Master You Guo wanted me to apologize to the survivors of South Vietnam for the sins committed by my ancestors in front of the whole world, so I didn't directly kill the king and seize the throne and put me under house arrest. If this fails, why don't I come here? Sometimes it is better to let the jade seal, which symbolizes the great achievements of the ancestors, fall into the hands of foreigners and be stained with shame, so it is better to let it fall on the battlefield."

With the help of the weak candlelight, Zhang Shujian saw that Chunyu Ye's eyes were full of relief that he was going to die calmly.

He couldn't help but feel a burst of emotion, secretly heaved a long sigh of relief, and said: "... I understand, please be patient, Your Majesty, try to delay the time, and I will come back with good news."
