"Didn't King Xuan want to see me? Now that I see you, why don't you speak?" Xiao Shengyun rested his palm on one hand and looked down casually.

The faces of the elders from the Xiao clan who came with King Xuan changed, and they remained silent, complaining against King Xuan in their hearts.

He listened to King Xuan's words and felt that Xiao Shengyun was really sick and couldn't get out of bed, so he dared to make this plan with him, but now?

Although the emperor sitting above looked a little pale, he was indeed Xiao Shengyun himself.

Glancing at King Xuan vaguely, he couldn't hide his surprise when he saw him, his heart sank, and he began to think about how to get himself out of this matter.

The other ministers who had already lined up beside King Xuan and made many small moves were even pale with fright.

They have experienced Xiao Shengyun's methods more than once, and now they are themselves facing the emperor. Thinking about the fate of those who oppose the emperor, these people shudder.

The ambition he had when he entered the palace was completely blown away the moment he saw Xiao Shengyun.

There were also those who didn't stand in line, seeing Xiao Shengyun appearing, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, they entered the palace with King Xuan purely for the sake of Jiangshan Sheji and Guozuo.

Xiao Shengyun looked at everyone's expressions for a while, then tapped on the armrest of the chair: "Does anyone have anything to say?"

His voice was not loud, but it was as deafening as thunder in the hearts of those who had different intentions.

"minister……"

I just opened my mouth, but I don't know how to say the rest.

King Xuan tried his best to maintain the expression on his face. He recalled the plan over and over again in his mind, and he had confirmed every detail that there was no problem before he dared to bring people into the palace. According to the news he got, Xiao Shengyun should be in a coma now. Wake up, why does it appear here?

From the looks of it, it didn't look like he was in danger of being affected by the strange poison.

What exactly went wrong?

Or, from the very beginning, the other party didn't fall for it?

King Xuan didn't dare to think about the latter possibility at all.

Extreme fear rose from the bottom of his heart and spread uncontrollably to his whole body. King Xuan only felt his eyes go black for a while.

Thinking about what I have done these days, maybe all happened under Xiao Shengyun's nose, and the other party was poisoned and unconscious on the surface, but in fact, when he was complacent, he watched him plunge into the trap he had already woven, getting deeper and deeper.

In the silence, an old minister who was not standing in line stood up: "Your Majesty has not been in court for many days, rumors are flying around, and the ministers are worried. King Xuan proposed to enter the palace to find out, and the ministers followed. I hope your majesty will forgive me." .”

"Really, King Xuan?"

A neutral voice sounded, and everyone's eyes focused on King Xuan.

The fist hanging in the sleeve was clenched unconsciously, King Xuan settled his expression, and said with difficulty: "Yes."

Cold sweat slipped from the corners of his forehead, and King Xuan was in no mood to wipe it off, because there was one more terrible thing, like a sharp sword hanging above his head, and he didn't know when it would fall.

Thinking of him changing the forbidden army into the palace, King Xuan gritted his teeth. He must calm down. Those people haven't moved yet. As long as they don't move, he can find a reasonable excuse for his hastily entering the palace this time.

God couldn't hear his prayers, and the time passed as the ministers' self-reports passed, and there was a sudden commotion outside the hall.

The minister, who didn't know what happened, shut his mouth and looked at the emperor sitting above him in surprise.

A strong sense of foreboding rose in some people's hearts.

As if to test their premonition, uniform footsteps sounded outside the hall.

The riot was quickly suppressed, and after a while, a man wearing the costume of the leader of the Xiaowei strode into the hall.

Qi Lie knelt down: "Your Majesty, all the traitors have been punished."

King Xuan closed his eyes, he knew that he had been tricked.

Swallowing the fishy sweetness welling up in his throat, he raised his head and said word by word: "Your Majesty already knew?"

He didn't say what he knew a long time ago, but the other ministers had some guesses in their hearts. Those ministers who had already stood in line with King Xuan felt cold all over their bodies. They knew what the real purpose of King Xuan's entering the palace this time, and couldn't wait for this day to come. Thinking that when this day really comes, they will face such a scene.

The legs with poor mental endurance softened and fell to the ground.

"What do I know?" Xiao Shengyun admired the behavior of the people below, got up and walked down, "Knowing that King Xuan has evil intentions, and bribed the imperial army to try to force the palace?"

Every time he took a step, the hearts of King Xuan's faction sank.

"I still know that King Xuan listened to my pulse and took the medicine prescribed by the imperial hospital, which made me suffer from poison again?"

As soon as these words came out, the minister who was not standing in line with King Xuan suddenly opened his eyes wide, and looked at King Xuan in disbelief: "King Xuan, you are so courageous!"

The emotions were suppressed to the extreme, and King Xuan laughed: "Xiao Chengyun, so what if you find out my scheme? It is impossible to unravel your poison. This time, you are lucky and survived. How do you know? Can you survive every time?"

This is King Xuan's greatest reliance. The poison actually came from Rongqiu, and it was the secret medicine of the Rongqiu royal family. Rongqiu had already destroyed the country, and those who knew the medicine had been slaughtered long ago. It was impossible for Xiao Shengyun to get the antidote.

Xiao Shengyun came over and looked down at him.

King Xuan was being escorted, so he could only kneel on the ground and look up at him.

The hatred in his eyes was not concealed.

"That doesn't bother King Xuan, King Xuan should take care of himself."

Qingyue's voice came from the side, and everyone's eyes turned subconsciously.

It's the queen.

Jiang Ling ignored the divergent gazes of the ministers, and went straight to Xiao Shengyun's side: "Your Majesty is in good health, and what you said will not happen."

"However, I am curious about one thing. King Xuan seems to be very familiar with the poison in His Majesty. Why?"

Regardless of the surprised expressions of the ministers, Jiang Ling continued: "King Xuan knows more about this poison than the former Minister of the Ministry of Officials. Can I guess that this poison has something to do with King Xuan?"

How the former Minister of the Ministry of Officials was dismissed, none of the ministers present did not know, the meaning of Jiang Ling's words was obvious, their eyes fell on King Xuan uncontrollably.

Is this matter really related to King Xuan?

Some old officials suddenly thought of what happened before Xiao Shengyun went to the border. At that time, while suppressing the power of the East Palace, the late emperor supported King Xuan and Li to contend with the power of the prince. To abolish the crown prince, make King Xuan the crown prince.

As the biggest beneficiary, they would not believe that King Xuan did not have such ambitions.

The road to succession has always been bloody, if King Xuan wants to take action against the prince who has already made outstanding contributions, it is completely reasonable, because once the prince returns to Beijing, with such outstanding military exploits and border troops in hand, the crown prince will be Emperor Chongming Can't move easily.

The sharp sword hanging above his head finally fell, and King Xuan was so soft that he fell to the ground.

A turmoil ended before it could start.

King Xuan and others were captured by Xiaowei and put in prison. Xiao Shengyun summoned officials from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple to the palace that day to deal with King Xuan's case overnight.

When the news spread, the inside and outside were shocked.

All kinds of things that King Xuan did were announced.

Restaurants and teahouses, there is no place where this matter is not discussed.

"I didn't expect that King Xuan was so secretive and did so many evil things in secret."

"Do you still remember the matter of the Minister of the Ministry of War? It is said that he also did those things under the instruction of King Xuan. King Xuan didn't want His Majesty to win the battle, so he did things in the rear. It's really shameful."

"There is also the case of spices in the imperial palace. Dali Temple has re-examined them. On the surface, those spices were brought into the palace by Concubine Li and the Seventh Prince to deal with His Majesty, but in fact Concubine Lin also intervened."

"This time he repeated his old tricks, trying to induce His Majesty to become poisonous and seize the throne. Fortunately, His Majesty was wise enough to miss his scheme."

"The vision of His Majesty when he ascended the throne is obvious to all. His Majesty is the natural candidate for the new emperor. How can he be shaken by a young man like him."

After Xiao Shengyun came to the throne, the people's life became better and better. Everyone is a pragmatic person. Of course, they hope that the emperor who can make their lives better and better will sit in that position.

In the court, Xiao Shengyun made a bold move to deal with King Xuan's henchmen one by one, and the hidden stakes left by King Xuan and Concubine Lin in the palace were also solved one by one.

Concubine Lin Gui was brought under control on the day when the incident happened. Although the things she had done over the years were well hidden, they could still be found out, including the Lin family that Lin Shoufu wanted to keep. Crime disposal.

The crimes committed by King Xuan are too many to list. All the participants will be dismissed from office or executed in severe cases. No one dares to intercede for King Xuan. Finally, for the face of the whole royal family, King Xuan was given a glass of poisoned wine.

After this incident, the imperial court completely fell under Xiao Shengyun's control.

As Gong, the protagonist of the original book, Jiang Ling was always worried that King Xuan would turn the tables against the wind, but luckily what he was worried about didn't happen.

King Xuan was imprisoned in the clan mansion. After drinking the poisonous wine, he leaned against the wall, and suddenly some memories appeared in his mind. Sitting at the highest place, being admired by thousands of people, the only difference is that in this memory, because of Jiang Ling's premature death, Chongxi did not succeed.

It turns out that Master Qianwu said that Chongxi is the prince's only lifeline, and it is true.

He shouldn't have allowed this celebration to go on successfully just to watch a joke.

The poison took effect.

All internal organs are aching.

After Xiao Shengyun was poisoned, does it hurt like this?

With the last of his strength, King Xuan left a line of blood on the wall.

Against Xiao Shengyun, he had never won before, and this time he was completely defeated.

The person who gave the medicine watched King Xuan close his eyes, and when he moved the person away from the wall, he also saw the blood on the wall. It was related to the Queen, so he didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly reported the news.

After Xiao Chengyun heard about it, he chuckled lightly: "What he said is the truth, without Ling'er, maybe I would have..."

Jiang Ling covered his mouth: "Your Majesty is not allowed to talk nonsense, quick pee pee."

Xiao Chengyun held his hand and pressed his forehead against his. He knew a long time ago that his waking up and the extra vitality in his body were related to Jiang Ling.

"Qi Lie, take someone there and destroy those traces. By the way, find out who King Xuan has seen in the clan's mansion these days, and what's unusual." King Xuan will leave behind the strange things about Jiang Ling before his death. Xiao Shengyun was worried, because someone told him.

He will not let anyone hurt Jiang Ling, including himself.

Jiang Ling sat in the man's arms, put her arms around his neck, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty doesn't doubt me?"

"Will Ling'er harm me?"

Jiang Ling shook her head.

"Then what do I suspect?" Xiao Chengyun pressed his forehead against Jiang Ling, "Don't think too much, I don't care about that."
