I heard my brother is a tyrant

What happened, what are these people shouting?

Ye Chuqing looked at Xie Dan with lingering eyes, with questioning in his eyes.

In the little girl's clear eyes, Xie Dan clasped the back of her head with one hand, and gently pressed her head on his shoulder, with some comfort in his movements, he opened his mouth steadily.

"All the gentlemen are flat."

The courtiers got up and stood bowed, but no one dared to look up. The emperor's voice was still cold and indifferent, but there was a girl in his arms. The girl put her arms around the back of the emperor's neck and lay on his shoulders, like It's like growing on him, and the emperor didn't mean to put him down at all.

The ministers have been worried and feared for several days, after being relieved from ecstasy just now, they are now a little embarrassed, all of them lowered their heads, not daring to look more than once.

However, the emperor is the emperor after all, Xie Dan's expression was normal, and he said in a low voice: "I am safe and sound, and all the ministers are worried."

The ministers bowed and saluted again, and shouted together: "God bless my emperor, God bless the Great Zhou! My emperor is prosperous and peaceful, and the country will last forever!"

"Chen Lianjiang, declare the decree."

Xie Dan left this sentence and walked away steadily with the little girl in his arms.

Chen Lianjiang opened a volume of imperial decree and read it in a cadence. The main idea was that the Chu family conspired against the law. First, they ordered Concubine Shu to poison the emperor and set fire to the palace to assassinate him.

After Chen Lianjiang finished reading the imperial decree, he was like a stone thrown into a calm pool of water. One by one, all the officials shouted "Your Majesty is holy", "My emperor is wise" and "Long live my emperor".

Chen Lianjiang closed the imperial decree with a smile and said: "My lords, it is very dangerous for your majesty to be poisoned by the Chu family this time. The dragon body has just recovered, and last night he personally commanded all the ministries to resist the assassins and put out the fire in the palace. Oops, your majesty will be here all night." I haven’t closed my eyes yet, so I won’t summon everyone one by one today, the Iron Armored Guards have been busy early in the morning, I’m afraid that the three divisions and six divisions will have to prepare separately. The Qingliang Hall has been burned down, and tomorrow’s time will be changed to the Mingquan Hall.”

All the ministers said yes, even though looking at the emperor, he was not as weak as Chen Lianjiang said, and he held the woman firmly all the way without letting go.

After talking about the business, the hearts of all civil and military officials were turbulent. The Chu clan that had been entrenched in the court for nearly a hundred years was about to be uprooted. The emperor was safe and sound, and the officials finally settled down.

Then someone laughed and asked Chen Lianjiang in a low voice: "Eunuch Chen, who is the lady in the palace?"

"Hey, look at what you said, how can there be any empress in the palace now?" Chen Lianjiang said, "The Concubine Chu has a grudge because of Chu Huan's incident, and was ordered by the Chu family to poison and murder His Majesty. Fortunately, Your Majesty is deeply blessed. With God's blessing, the crisis was turned into safety. Poor Concubine Wei was the first to notice that Concubine Shu was poisoned, and she risked herself to save His Majesty, and now she is seriously injured, I'm afraid it's..."

He sighed deliberately, and the rest of the words were self-evident.As for Concubine Kong and Concubine Yang who stayed behind in the capital palace, their families belonged to the Chu family, and they were originally included in today's search, so it goes without saying what happened to these two.

After Chen Lianjiang finished speaking, he bowed with a pleasant smile and said, "My lords, let's do it this way today. I know that your lords are worried about the body of the dragon. Your Majesty needs to rest well. Let none of us disturb Your Majesty today. My lords also Let's go back to the mansion first and rest, and the servants will take their leave now."

"Eunuch Chen, go slowly."

Looking at Chen Lianjiang's calm back, the courtiers who spoke to him couldn't help but secretly slander, this old fox asked him about the identity of the woman, he was lucky, he babbled a lot, but didn't say a word about the woman.

The courtiers left one after another, walking towards the gate of the palace in groups of three or four, and someone whispered, "Master Zhang, did you see that girl looks like... the princess of Jiayi County? So, the position of empress... "

The Chu family has collapsed, and Concubine Wei is seriously injured. I am afraid that she will die. The next three candidates are only the head of Jiayi County. If the woman just now is really the head of Jiayi County...

Master Zhang interrupted him and said, "Oh, Master Liu, you actually saw it, I didn't even dare to lift my head."

"Oh, how dare I raise my head. It wasn't when the woman rode into the palace just now. I just happened to take a look. I didn't look carefully. She really looks like the princess of Jiayi County."

After such a discussion, everyone's eyes turned to Guo Yu. Guo Yu just saw the back of his head, which was tightly hidden in the emperor's arms. How could he know what he looked like? Eight ways, that woman has nothing to do with this king, this king's daughter has always been dignified, dignified, well-educated, and now she is well in the mansion."

***

On the green palace road, Xie Dan walked forward step by step with Ye Chu in his arms.After the fire last night, there still seemed to be a hint of smoke in the air, but the birds and cicadas were already singing a cappella.

Ye Chu was hugged by Xie Dan, with his hands on his shoulders, his small face silently stared at his face, and after a while, he asked, "Brother, who is the emperor?"

Her tone of voice is always soft and slow, soft, with no ups and downs.Xie Dan met her dark eyes, she was hugged by him, she was at the same height as him, even a little higher than him, the little girl tilted her head slightly, her little face was neither happy nor angry, expressionless.

"The emperor is... elder brother." Xie Dan said.

Ye Chu looked at him neither happy nor annoyed, and asked, "Is brother the emperor today?"

"..." Xie Dan paused, and answered honestly, "No."

"Then why didn't I know before?"

"In the past..." Xie Dan thought about it and said, "I was afraid that you would be worried or angry. You were still young at that time, so I didn't tell you."

Ye Chu was confused: "How did you become the emperor?"

"Before I took you to escape, I was originally the crown prince, and my father was Emperor Sejong." Xie Dan said.

As soon as he mentioned Ye Chu, he understood that he had told her this story, but it was intentionally vague and did not clearly explain his "family background".

"Yeah, I got it." The little girl nodded, she didn't say anything for a long time with a small face neither happy nor annoyed, and then suddenly said, "So you are that lecherous emperor who always chops off people's heads and chooses a lot of concubines."

"No, don't listen to their nonsense." Xie Dan didn't want to deny it, and coaxed softly, "An An, you grew up with your elder brother, and you know best that your elder brother is the kind of murderous, brutal, and lustful person they say ?"

"How do I know. You're a liar anyway." The little girl curled her lips and struggled to push him, "Put me down."

"The ground is dirty, my brother will carry you away." Xie Dan said, "You don't even know how much my brother misses you."

"I don't miss you at all. I'm coming down."

The little girl swung her feet and kicked him on the legs. Xie Dan hugged her and kept walking, sighing, "Don't move, your brother's body hurts, it hurts already, you don't even know how much I've been hurt these two days." Pitiful."

The little girl didn't dare to move anymore, she watched him quietly and asked, "What's the matter with you, are you injured?"

"Almost." Xie Dan said, "You don't even know how pitiful my brother is. Someone poisoned me and I almost died. You saw it too. They even set fire to me and sent so many assassins to kill me."

"Are you poisoned?" Ye Chu looked at him suspiciously.

"Yeah." Xie Dan said, "I was in pain all night, and I almost died. Doctor Xu came to detoxify me, if you don't believe me, you can ask him."

The little girl really felt distressed. She stared at him for a while with black and white eyes, and asked, "Really?"

"real."

"Is it ok now?"

"it's better now."

"Who poisoned you?"

"Those beautiful concubines you mentioned." Xie Dan said, "Look if your brother dares to be lecherous. I never dared to go to the harem, and I have never seen them. What kind of beauties are those people? They are beautiful snakes. That's right, they all entered the palace to harm me for the benefit of the family."

"..." Ye Chu gave him a very speechless expression, not knowing what to say.

"It's okay, it's all over. Those assassins were also arrested last night, as well as the people behind the scenes. I will arrest them all today."

It's time for the Iron Armored Guards to attack before dawn. It is estimated that they have already arrested almost all of them, and the sky prison should be overcrowded again.

Under the shade of green trees, Xie Dan hugged her and walked straight to Yuqianzhai. He didn't have to hug her, he didn't lie to her, the ground was really dirty.

In the area of ​​Yuqian, there were corpses strewn all over the ground last night, and there were few places where no one had died, especially around the Qingliang Hall. At dawn, the bluestone ground in front of the hall was stained with blood, and the fire extinguishing water flowed past, and it was all black when mixed together. And the guards have been flushing until now.

The little girl has been clean since she was a child, how could she step on a little dirt.

Xie Dan didn't dare to tell her that, for fear of frightening her.

Ye Chu looked at him expressionlessly: "Why did you say that, it's so pitiful to be an emperor."

"It's really pitiful." Xie Dan said, "Otherwise, why does my brother hide you every day? Think about those people who hunted and killed us when we were young. It's not a good job to be the emperor. The emperor is a loner, and everyone around him is scheming. You, who calculate power and wealth, calculate favor, calculate benefits, even your own grandmother calculates you, you are not as good as ordinary people, don’t you think it’s pitiful?”

Xie Dan sighed sadly, hugged her and rubbed her hair on the sideburns and said, "Fortunately, brother still has An An, otherwise brother would really be the most pitiful person in the world."

Ye Chu pursed his lips and looked at him with clear eyes. The two of them were together all day, if she couldn't see that he was pretending to be pitiful, she would be really stupid.

Xie Dan couldn't help being a little amused by her teasing and disgusting eyes, and said seriously: "Really, if you don't believe me, go and have a look, walk from here to the other side of the lake, pass the brook pavilion by the lake to Funing Hall, my Counting against my own grandmother, she is still under house arrest right now."

"The Empress Dowager?"

"Ah."

"She is your real grandmother, why should she plot against you?"

"For the sake of power and wealth, and for the benefit of her natal family." Xie Dan said, the empress dowager was originally a powerful woman, the desire for power will never get tired, it will only make people more and more addicted, and ambition will only grow more and more. big.

"The concubines in my harem were also created by her. The one who poisoned me was the empress dowager's grandniece, my Concubine Shu. These noble ladies have long been ruled by various rules, etiquette, and various family interests. Pickled and tasty, old-fashioned, boring, vicious and shameless, do you think I dare to approach them, dare to be lecherous? I'm not stupid."

He smiled and asked her: "Look at your brother, does he look like a big fool?"

The little girl snorted: "Not like a fool, but like a liar."

Xie Dan smiled, held her firmly with one hand, changed the position of his arms slightly, and walked forward leisurely with her in his arms.At this moment, he really felt leisurely and calm.

Ye Ling and Ye Hui followed behind not too far away, and saw the master hugging the girl, the two of them were talking softly all the way, neither annoyed nor troubled, they looked very warm and relaxed.

Ye Hui muttered softly, "I thought the girl would get angry and deal with him."

Ye Ling glanced at Ye Hui, and said angrily in a low voice, "Don't talk nonsense, you have some manners."

"No..." Ye Hui asked very unwillingly, "Why do you think the girl is not in a hurry with him, let's just forget it? The girl is too good-natured."

"You thought the girl was you, Poppy." Ye Ling said.

The girl has such a temperament that she can't learn to make a fuss even when she is angry. Who knows what they are talking about now.They also couldn't hear what the two masters said, but it seemed that they were right.

A man who seeks the world, seeks the hearts of the people, the poor girl is no match.

"If anyone dares to lie to me for so long..." Ye Hui snorted twice.

Ye Ling glared at her, and said helplessly, "You can't wait for them to quarrel, don't you?"

Ye Hui curled her lips and smiled to herself, looking at the two masters in front of her.The emperor hugged the man in his arms, and the clothes on the back were a little tight. With broad shoulders and narrow waist, and a straight back, Yiran walked into the Yuqianzhai with the girl in his arms.

As soon as they entered the gate of Yuqianzhai, the little girl Bingtang saw them first with sharp eyes, and shouted out of surprise in a very unruly manner: "The girl is back!"

The cheers of "The girl is back" sounded one after another in the courtyard, and within a short time, dozens of maidservants and servants ran out of the house, and a large area of ​​the courtyard fell to their knees.

"I have seen the master, I have seen the girl." "May the girl be blessed and safe." "My girl, you are back, as long as the girl is safe and sound."

Xie Dan put her down, and Ye Chu landed on both feet, looking at the maids kneeling all over the courtyard, he hurriedly asked: "I was scared to death last night, are you all alright?"

Chun Jiang hurriedly smiled and said, "Girl, we're fine. The assassins are mainly at the Qingliang Hall, and our Yuqianzhai also has guards guarding us. It's fine, but everyone is very worried about the girl."

Ye Chu hurriedly said that she was fine, and there was not a hair missing.The maids happily surrounded her and went in.

Ye Chu stayed away for two days and three nights, lived in the Han family courtyard for two nights, and stayed in the big camp at the foot of the mountain for one night, especially the tents at the bottom of the mountain were limited, and the weather was hot. It was not very convenient, she went back to her room, lay down on the bed, and couldn't help sighing comfortably.

Ye Chu then asked the maids to prepare water, first take a bath and freshen up carefully.The maids sprinkled dew and petals in the camphor wood tub, Ye Chu sat in the tub to wash himself, and Sichun stood by and waited on him.

While accompanying her, the maids chattered about the past few days, telling that the sound of fighting outside could be heard in Yuqianzhai last night, the maids were scared to death, Chang Shun led the servants and guards to guard around, the maids They sat together all night until dawn, before the outside calmed down.

Chun Jiang said: "It's fortunate that the master lives in Yuqianzhai on weekdays. If he lives in Qingliang Hall, there must be many people serving in the hall. I'm afraid there will be more or less casualties."

Ye Chu heard her yelling "Master, Master", and asked, "Do you know that he is the emperor?"

The four springs looked at each other, and Ye Chu curled his lips and said, "It seems that you all know, just coax me."

"Miss, forgive me." Chun Jiang bowed his head and said, "The servants belong to the girl, so just serve the girl well."

Ye Chu said: "You are all with him."

Chun Jiang hurriedly said: "Girl, the servants are your people, and they are with you."

Ye Chu snorted inwardly, a big liar, with a bunch of liars, the room is full of liars.

After Ye Chu took a bath, he changed into a fresh and clean pink-blue shirt and put on his wet long hair. He saw Xie Dan sitting on the outer bed, and when she came out, he came over to dry her hair. He took a comb and pulled her hair loosely at the sides and tied a ribbon at the top of her head to let it dry naturally.

While Xie Dan tied her hair, he observed the little girl's expression in the mirror, why did she come out of the shower, her face was sullen, as if she was unhappy again.

It wasn't like this just now.

"What's wrong? Are you unhappy again?"

Xie Dan waved his hand and dismissed the servants in the room, and said with a smile, "An'an, I'm free today, and I'll probably be busy tomorrow, so if you have anything else you want to ask, feel free to ask, if you're not happy... "He thought for a while, and didn't know what the little girl was thinking, so he simply said, "How can An An calm down and forgive me, can you tell me?"

The little girl glanced at him, didn't speak, just stood up and walked out silently, Xie Dan hurriedly followed, pulled her and asked, "It's starting to get hot outside, what are you doing?"

"Dry your hair." The little girl shook her arm, broke free from his hand, and walked forward along the veranda, all the way to the small flowerbed between the two yards, and walked along the shade of the Albizia julibrissin. Walk around the rockery garden made of Shoushan stone in the middle.

Xie Dan followed behind her, reached out and tugged at her sleeve, the little girl raised her hand and broke free from him again.After pulling it a few times, she threw it away, Xie Dan looked at it, okay, why did you get angry again thinking about it?

So in the small courtyard with mottled greenery, a girl with loose long hair lowered her head and walked slowly forward, followed by a tall man. Go round and round.

After walking around for a few times, Ye Chu saw that he was silent like a tail, and became more depressed. He squatted on the ground with his knees hugged, pouted and played with the acacia flowers that fell on the ground, ignoring him.

Xie Dan came over and squatted beside her, the two of them squatted silently for a while, Xie Dan touched her arm and asked, "What's the matter, are you talking?"

"They all know, Chang Shun, Ye Ling... the whole Yuqianzhai knows, but I don't know, right?"

"...Yes." Xie Dan said, "The entire imperial court knows."

"The whole imperial court knows, so just fool me, and everyone who co-authors knows, just lie to me." The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, Ye Chu snorted aggrievedly, "Hmph, they are all from your group, so just lie to me." Bully me alone, you are all bad people."

"I was wrong, I was wrong. I remember you said before, I am your brother, and you can't hit me if I lie to you. This time you know everything, or..." Xie Dan stretched out a palm to her, Said, "Why don't you hit it a few times? "

scoundrel.Ye Chu turned her face away and didn't want to talk to him.

"An An..."

"Don't call me An An!" the little girl said fiercely, "I don't want to talk to you anymore."

Xie Dan paused: "Sister?"

"Don't call me sister!"

"Miss Ye?"

"go away!"

She squatted with her head bowed, her freshly washed long hair was scattered on her back, some of it was hanging down, almost to the ground, Xie Dan stretched out his hand to hold her drooping hair.

He also squatted a bit higher than her, so he tried his best to lower his head and stretched out in front of her, looking at her bulging little face, he was not allowed to be called An An, and he was not allowed to be called sister, he paused, and shouted in a smiling voice: "Then... my sister?"

"..." Ye Chu raised his head to look at him, and was immediately laughed angrily by him, and slapped him, "Who is it, you are so embarrassed!"

The little servant next to Xie Dan was secretly looking at the yard from the front window, the girl and His Majesty were squatting on the ground, His Majesty was still holding the girl's hair, they squatted there with their heads together, whispering, very intimate.

The servant clicked his tongue happily, the relationship between the girl and His Majesty is really good.

Ye Hui: Fighting, fighting, I can't let him go...
