Lu Xiaofeng's sword screams nine days

Lu Xiaofeng's good night's sleep did not come to fruition after all.

The sky had already faintly glowed with white light, and bells could be heard faintly in the distance, one after another, as if knocking on the hearts of everyone present.For the guards in the palace, the night was very difficult.They suppressed wave after wave of turmoil in the rivers and lakes, and surrounded the palace so tightly that not even a fly could fly in.

When the battle between Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue ended, the people in the rivers and lakes gathered at the Gongmen Gate had not dispersed yet.They all held ribbons in their hands, so logically speaking, they were all qualified to enter the palace to watch.However, it is not just a matter of regret that they did not go in, it is also a matter of face.

Walking in the rivers and lakes, just for the sake of saving face.

Therefore, they refused to disperse.Confronted with these guards.Naturally, they were not afraid to fight alone, but all the imperial guards in the capital came out in force, and they couldn't resist it alone.Because they are not Ximen Chuuxue, because they are not Ye Gucheng.

So they wait here, even if they see the back of the last victor, they can say that they have witnessed this peerless battle.

When dawn came and everyone was in dire straits, the sound of the bell from afar made people suddenly startled.The voice of national mourning, Jianghu Caomang will not admit it wrong.

That night, it wasn't Ximen Chuuxue who died, and naturally, it wasn't Ye Gucheng either.The person who died was unexpected, the ninety-five-year-old who sat upright in the hall.The emperor is dead.

Everyone flew down from the eaves of the palace, and before they realized what was going on, a little eunuch knelt on the ground and asked Gong Jiu to move.That little eunuch was by the empress dowager's side, Gong Jiu would not admit it wrong.

Everyone dispersed.No matter how the emperor died, they shouldn't care about such family matters, and they can't afford to.

Ye Gucheng and Gong Jiu exchanged a look, the eyes of the two quickly intertwined, and then separated in an instant.The corners of the same eyes, but outline the same smile.

Lu Xiaofeng didn't speak, it was rare for him to be silent like this.He walked out of the palace with Hua Manlou and Sikong Jiexing.Looking back, the once resplendent place now looks like a tomb painted with gold powder.

Lu Xiaofeng felt a chill down his spine, even the best bamboo leaf greens and sesame seed cakes in the capital could not save him.

And no matter what the crowd was like, Gong Jiu smiled slightly, and followed the little eunuch into the emperor's bedroom.

The empress dowager is now 70 years old, and she is full of the demeanor of the Tian family.Her expression was very sad, but it was the sadness that every grandmother who lost a grandson would have.

The emperor's body had been placed on the dragon bed, blood stained the bright yellow obscene clothes, his eyes were wide open in disbelief, panic, surprise, unwillingness, and many expressions were condensed on his face.It's just that it was the end, and it was impossible for him to have any other expressions.

The palace lord stood behind the empress dowager, supporting the old man who spent half his life in front and retired to the harem.Eyebrows lowered, almost blending into the background.If Lu Xiaofeng was here, he would definitely be wondering why the Palace Mistress was standing behind him in the blink of an eye.

The son of the Southern King was suppressed by heavy troops, and the Southern King was also controlled by Jin Jiuling, and he did not wear handcuffs and shackles, which was worthy of the dignity of this powerful prince.No, it should be that power was once in the hands of the government, but after today, Nan Wang and his son have all been reduced to prisoners.

Everyone present is a prince and minister who was pulled here in the middle of the night.Those who can enter the emperor's bedroom are all veterans of several dynasties, and the country relies on it.Although the Empress Dowager retired to the harem, her wrists were still there. Although her heart was palpitating, she was able to hold on and manage this shocking change.

The empress dowager and the empress cried silently, not daring to make any noise.The empress dowager has been able to get to this position today only because she came from the mother's family of the empress dowager, and she is the only one who looks after the empress dowager in the palace.In terms of power and strategy, it is not as good as the Empress Dowager.Not to mention the queen, she is the successor of the emperor. After the death of the empress Yuan, she was hastily married into the palace by her family. Now she is only 14 years old. She has no experience and has not even seen blood. The dead man was actually her husband.Now, she's scared out of her wits.

The empress dowager made up her mind.But now the court is surrounded by powerful ministers, who cannot tolerate any weakness in her.She glanced at her grandson's already stiff body, and looked at Zhao Huaigu with hatred in her eyes.

Zhao Huaigu no longer had the heart to observe the Empress Dowager.In this life, his appearance is still the same as that of the Ninth Five-Year Lord, which is a gift from God.And he made more careful probing, and found out the truth of that person. In this life, not to mention his weak body, his temperament is extremely weak, and he does not have the demeanor of "the swordsmanship ranks among the top ten in the current world" in his previous life. This is God's will.As for Zhao Huaigu himself, he perfected the flaws in the plan in his dream, and did not use Wang An, the eunuch next to the emperor. Instead, he ended up on the day the plan was laid out, and replaced him with someone around him.

Speaking of this disguise technique, Zhao Huaigu really has to thank Sikong Zaixing.In the old days, Sikong Zhaixing once sneaked into his mansion and stole the sword studded with precious stones. After he got the news, he fed poison on the sword. In order to understand the medicine, Sikong Zhaixing had to teach the disguise technique to his subordinates. people.

The disguise technique of the King of Thieves is naturally unparalleled in the world.The emperor and Wang An got along day and night, and they didn't notice any flaws.On the night of the full moon in August and fifteenth, Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue had a decisive battle on the top of the Forbidden City.Naturally, Zhao Huaigu was not totally unprepared, he couldn't let Ye Gucheng die, and he wanted to share the prosperity with Ye Gucheng.Therefore, he sent a large number of people to assassinate Ximen Chuuxue, and after he failed, he buried crossbowmen in the Forbidden City to interfere with Ximen Chuuxue during the decisive battle.

In the decisive battle, even a moment is life and death, just interfering with Ximen Chuuxue is enough for Ye Gucheng to take his life.

As for Zhao Huaigu, he wanted to take advantage of August [-]th, when all the palace guards went to watch the battle, and sneaked into the emperor's bedroom to replace him.At that time, even if others noticed something abnormal, the personal eunuchs around him would deny it completely, so who could say anything?

The biggest lesson Zhao Huaigu learned from the dream in his previous life was not to talk nonsense.Looking back, he realized how stupid he was in his previous life.He talked a lot of nonsense, but gave Lu Xiaofeng a chance to save the emperor.

So, this time, Zhao Huaigu drew his sword without hesitation, and stabbed it into the emperor's chest.The emperor died in an instant, and there was no life left.He didn't light up the lamp, only a strong smell of blood radiated in the darkness, but it was slowly suppressed by the emperor's special ambergris.The bedroom is very peaceful, but its owner will never wake up again.

Before Zhao Huaigu had time to be happy, the suet lamp burning in the bedroom was quickly lit.In an instant, the palace was as bright as day, and even a little bit of privacy could not be concealed.

The closed door of the emperor's bedroom was slowly opened by the maid, and the creaking sound was like a spell calling for death.Zhao Huaigu suddenly passed, and the dagger that pierced the emperor's chest was pulled out, and the blue light of stars was still shining on it.In order to be sure, Zhao Huaigu quenched the poison on the dagger.

He gritted his teeth, stared at the door of the bedroom, and never stopped doing anything. He had already made up his mind that no matter who came in, he would end up with it.

The Empress Dowager came in a hurry, she only put on an outer garment in a hurry, and before she had time to put on her hairpin, she was supported by a slender figure and stepped into the emperor's bedroom.

Into the eyes, is the emperor's body.The Empress Dowager felt dizzy and dizzy, if the palace lord hadn't been supporting her, she would almost have fallen to the ground.

This night, the Empress Dowager is not ignorant of the decisive battle between the two great swordsmen at the top of the Forbidden City, but what does that have to do with her?She was already ready to fall asleep, but a sudden uneasiness sprouted in her heart.The nanny who had followed her for many years saw that she was restless, so she personally lit a tranquilizing incense, and the two chatted for a while.

However, before the incense was burnt out, the door of her palace was suddenly opened, and the surrounding guards didn't notice it, which had to surprise the Empress Dowager.It must be known that the guards in her palace are actually a refined army, which was left to her by the emperor Taizu, and they are only loyal to her. Relying on this powerful and loyal army, she was able to fight in the palace. In security.But now, a person entered her bedroom, and the guards didn't even notice.

The Empress Dowager suddenly clenched the hand of the nurse beside her.

The Empress Dowager is 70 years old this year, but her eyes are still not blurred. She clearly saw that a young girl came in, with a hint of anxiety in her expression.The Empress Dowager gradually calmed down, and asked in a low voice to the mother next to her, "This is the daughter of the second family?" She gave birth to two sons, one was Emperor Taizong, and the other was King Taiping.King Taiping was the seventh eldest among all the sons of Emperor Taizu. However, the Empress Dowager always called him "the second". A woman like the Empress Dowager was very close, and she also protected her shortcomings very much.

Momo took a careful look at the Palace Mistress, and said to the Empress Dowager, "Miss is not mistaken, she is Princess Zhaoyang." She was the Empress Dowager's dowry maid, and she kept calling her Miss.And Zhaoyang is exactly the title of the palace lord.

The palace lord approached, threw herself into the arms of the empress dowager, and said anxiously, "Grandmother, the son of the Nanwang... the son of the Nanwang wants to assassinate the emperor's elder brother!" He is also considered close to the Empress Dowager, so the guards in the palace did not embrace her just now.

The empress dowager glared angrily, "Presumptuous, where did you hear that!"

However, the palace lord dragged the empress dowager and said, "Today, I followed my brother to watch the decisive battle. The Hall of Supreme Harmony has a very good view, and I can see the emperor's bedroom. I saw the emperor's brother walk into the bedroom. Not a moment later, another A man who looked exactly like the emperor's brother walked in. Entering the emperor's bedroom privately is a capital offense, not to mention that the man was dressed exactly like the emperor's brother, so he clearly wanted to replace him."

Although the Empress Dowager was astonished, she still showed a trace of clarity. She pulled out the hand held by the palace lord, and stood still coldly, "How do you know it's the son of Prince Nan?"

The palace lord lowered his head and fiddled with the corner of his clothes, with a look of embarrassment of being caught, and said in a low voice, "I peeked at the secret letter in my brother's study, and it said that when the son of the Southern Prince came to Beijing, he had already changed his appearance, and his true appearance was exactly like the emperor's brother. Originally, I just thought it was fun and didn't take it to heart, but I suddenly saw it today and remembered it." Suddenly, the Palace Master seemed to remember something, and begged the Empress Dowager with a look, "Grandmother, you must not talk to your brother. Tell me, he’s going to punish me for copying books again.”

The Empress Dowager's expression softened a little, the kings have their own influence in the capital, if King Taiping doesn't have a few eyeliners, she, as a mother, will be worried.She has already lost a son, and she naturally prefers King Taiping, the only remaining son.The feelings towards a son are different from those towards a grandson.

It's just that, right now, there is no room for her to delay.The Empress Dowager brought all the guards, and together with the palace lord, galloped towards the emperor's bedroom.The imperial palace is very grand, and the empress dowager and the emperor's bedroom are far apart. Even though the guards who carried the sedan chair had used lightness kung fu, they were still a step late when they arrived at the emperor's bedroom.

The emperor has already returned to heaven.The empress dowager was so desperate that she shouted, "Bold thief!" But before she could react, a dagger glowing blue had already stabbed her in front of her.

A pair of hands, closed like a quiet girl facing the water, opened like an orchid flower, the bones and flesh are evenly white and tender, slender and soft, as if they could be easily crushed.Such a pair of hands belonged to a pampered girl in her boudoir, but they could stop a poisonous dagger out of thin air.The palace lord's movements were very swift, in line with the fluttering robes, he tapped his feet lightly, tossed and turned, and sealed the big acupoints around Prince Nan's body in an instant.

The dagger was thrown far away on the ground, but Zhao Huaigu couldn't move.The elite soldiers around the Empress Dowager seemed to wake up from a dream. They used eighteen steel guns to overwhelm Zhao Huaigu to the ground. The steel guns intertwined like a cage, and he could no longer move.

The detectives of Six Doors were dispatched urgently to hunt down Nan Wang.One reason is that the palace is really short of manpower, and the other reason is that, in the capital city, who has a professional policeman who can handle six doors?

Nanwang didn't run away, his son was going to be the emperor, why did he run away?Therefore, the police from the six doors went straight to Nanwang's other courtyard, and arrested Nanwang who was still immersed in his dream.The chief arrester of the six gates, Jin Jiuling, personally escorts Nan Wang into the palace, and the dead guards raised by the Nan king are slaughtered by the six gates' arresters.

Zhao Huaigu was detained by heavy soldiers, and he stared at the Palace Mistress, not understanding how his foolproof plan could easily be defeated by a woman.

The empress dowager also looked at the palace master with deep meaning. Just now, her granddaughter saved her life. However, how a young girl who was raised in a deep boudoir and was sick all the year round could have such exquisite martial arts is really arousing suspicion .

The palace lord naturally sensed the empress dowager's suspicion. She smiled brightly, grabbed the empress dowager's sleeves as if asking for credit, and said, "Grandmother, is Zhaoyang good? This is what the elder brother of the city lord taught me. They Baiyun City The one who restrained him just now was the orchid from Baiyun City, isn't it very powerful?" The palace lord smiled innocently at the empress dowager, but she looked at Zhao from an angle that the empress dowager could not see. There is complete coldness in Huaigu's eyes.Those eyebrows and the cold amber light in those eyes are no different from Ye Gucheng.

Zhao Huaigu's eyes widened, but the guards had already blocked his mouth, and he was already speechless.

"City Lord Baiyun, the one who is dueling in the Forbidden City today?" The Empress Dowager pondered for a while.

"Well, the city lord's brother and my brother are good friends. They have played with me since we were young. The city lord's brother is very good. Zhaoyang entered the palace today to watch the city lord's brother duel." The tone of the palace lord was as usual. Lighthearted, the delicacy of a little girl.Zhao Huaigu felt that every word and every word pierced his heart.It turned out that his elder brother and Gong Jiu had known each other for a long time. It turned out that today was a game of inviting the king into the urn. It turned out that he made wedding clothes for others.

It turned out that the person he could share with all over the world was the one who really plotted against him.It turned out that that person was not really indifferent, but that he had never been taken seriously by that person.

Zhao Huaigu closed his eyes.There were no tears in my eyes.He suddenly remembered that many years ago, the old monk warned that "this is not another world", this is not another world, today is his own mistake.Originally, that was his dream, from beginning to end, it was only his dream.And he is just an idiot in a dream.How could Ye Gucheng be his elder brother? How could Ye Gucheng destroy the Forbidden City for him.Really, it was just his imagination.

elder brother.He called Ye Gucheng like this for the last time.In this life, in this world, forever and ever, there will be no time to see each other again.

The Empress Dowager naturally didn't know that Zhao Huaigu was heartbroken and wanted to die. If she could, she really wanted to tear Zhao Huaigu into pieces.She sent someone to invite the court elders.Now, she knows the layout of the court better than anyone else.Surrounded by powerful ministers, the royal family cannot withstand any storms.However, the death of the emperor was the biggest storm.

The Empress Dowager and the Emperor Taizu had a deep relationship. When the Emperor Taizu was dying, she swore in front of the Emperor Taizu's bed to guard the rivers and mountains for him. Contained by foreign relatives, they ransacked and beheaded the whole family of the mother's family with their own hands.What kind of motherly heart is this, and what kind of ruthless means, she has paid too much for the royal family, so this world must be the world of her Zhao family, and it must also be the world of her direct son and grandson .

Before the end, all the ministers will arrive.The empress dowager retired to the harem for a long time, but her power is still there.With her in charge, the officials had no choice but to restrain their eagerness to move.

"Everyone should know that the emperor just now was assassinated by this rebellious minister and thief, and he has already passed away." The empress dowager pointed at Nan Wang and his son and said very loudly, the officials were as silent as cicadas and did not dare to answer.

"The emperor has no heir, and the country... has no successor..." The Empress Dowager's voice was choked up.

At this time, the prime minister took a step forward, bowed to the empress dowager, and said, "The empress dowager will preserve her phoenix body, and please mourn. The country cannot be without a king for a day. What is needed now is to be among the clan members, and the selection can be a great responsibility." The prime minister is a pure minister, he is not loyal to anyone, he is only loyal to the emperor.

All the ministers were shocked for a while, and some ministers even came forward to recommend the royal clan.

The Empress Dowager remained silent, but wrote down those few courtiers.Unfaithful courtiers must be dealt with slowly.It's just that today's court can't stand the twists and turns.

When the discussion faded away, the Empress Dowager had a long talk, and said to the ministers, "The Emperor Taizu had a secret decree in the past, and the Ai family thought that this secret decree would never be used." She glanced at the ministers, His eyes were sharp.Most of the people present were veterans from the time of Emperor Taizu, and such familiar eyes sent a chill down their spines.

They will never forget what kind of thunderous means this kind-looking woman in front of her has.

The Empress Dowager opened the red sandalwood box that had been dusty for many years, handed it to the prime minister, and said, "Ai's family is old and their eyes are blurred. The prime minister will read it to them."

The prime minister took the box with trembling hands, and unfolded the brocade silk in front of all the ministers. Because of its age, the brocade silk had lost its bright color, but the prime minister, as the elder of the three dynasties, still recognized it at a glance. The characters were indeed written by Emperor Taizu himself.

"My prince has a noble character and a noble mother. He is my first son. He is deeply respectful to me and will definitely bear the throne. After I ascend the throne, he will be the emperor. My seven sons are respectful and virtuous. They are my second son. King Taiping, the crown prince will be granted the throne. If the prince is unlucky in the future, and the country has no successor, King Taiping can inherit the throne. Everyone in the court will embrace him. May God bless our dynasty, the country will continue, and the people will be happy. I have seen something , will be pleased to comfort him, he should have nothing to be ashamed of when he sees the founding sages. I respect this."

The important ministers were in an uproar, but they could not disobey the secret decree left by Emperor Taizu. When King Taiping stepped forward, all the ministers fell to their knees, and the voice of shouting long live was endless.

The emperor passed away in a hurry to make the dragon robes, and it would take time to purchase the enthronement ceremony. King Taiping had to move out of a compartment in the imperial study room and live in the palace as a temporary bedroom.

During the period when the new emperor succeeds to the throne, it is not appropriate to see blood. Nan Wang and his son were detained in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment and heavily guarded.Princess Nan learned that Nanfang's father and son had failed in their pursuit of the dynasty, so she led her family to commit suicide in Nanjiang Nanwangfu.

So far, the world has been restored, the dust has settled, and the sea has changed.

The author has something to say: Does Lu Xiaofeng really know nothing? Hehehehehe.
