In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Emperor Xuan's head was covered with fine beads of sweat, and he slept very restlessly.

'The wind in this capital has never stopped, and the throne has never been safe...never safe'

"Ah!" Emperor Xuan screamed, waving his arms and sat up suddenly from the bed. He was still immersed in his dream, as if he saw Qin Zheng smiling coldly at him covered in blood.

"Your Majesty?" Concubine Xiao Gui wanted to comfort him, but was pushed away. "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

Emperor Xuan didn't pay attention to her, just looked at the palace and said nothing, outside the door, the prince suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Your Majesty, the prime minister entered the palace late at night to ask for an audience."

"Zhaohe Palace" said Emperor Xuan, got up and left quickly.

"Teacher, what's the matter so late at night?" Emperor Xuan asked as soon as he entered the palace.

"Your Majesty, Zhai Jing's butler sent this." Wang Qianhe handed the letter to Emperor Xuan.

: My minister, Zhai Jing, pays homage to my emperor. The matter investigated by the former emissary has become clear. The matter of the general was first initiated by Kong Shi, the guard of Yuyang, but Kong Shi was bewitched by others. This person is one of the ministers. Tao Qi, a native of Jingzhou County, lived with his mother in the south of the Yangtze River when he was young, and was a man of the King of Wu. This minister has not noticed the crime.

Although the minister made mistakes, the king of Jin was disrespectful. Since the minister came to the north, everything has been done by the minister. Civil affairs, money and food are all approved by the Jin palace, and the army in the northern border cannot be controlled by the minister.Although the minister has a heart, his strength is weak and he cannot compete with the king of Jin.

The king of Jin took advantage of Tao Qi's incident to wantonly implicate his ministers and his majesty's people. The northern land is no longer his majesty's land. It is like the king of Jin's private land. The king of Jin will kill his ministers in a short time, and he will never wait for his majesty to personally interrogate him. Leaving this book, I don't regret my death. I hope that your majesty will know the traitor early and take care of the dragon's body. The minister Di Jing bowed his head.

As soon as the Northern Army petition happened, Emperor Xuan ordered Zhai Jing to investigate secretly, but Zhai Jing never replied until the king of Jin told him that Zhai Jing was behind the scenes. , That's why I was anxious to escort Zhai Jing back to the capital.

Before Zhai Jing died, although he suspected that it was the king of Jin who did it, he also suspected that it might be a trick of the king of Wu. Now it seems that the reason why Zhai Jing has no news is that the king of Jin blocked the news.

Emperor Xuan held Zhai Jing's letterhead tightly, and asked, "Teacher, are the words in this letter true?"

"Zhai Jing's family has lived in the capital for a long time. It is a bit far-fetched to say that they are the spies of the King of Wu. Tao Qi is indeed from Jingzhou County. When Di Jing's housekeeper came to report the letter, he was very frightened by the King of Jin. It can be seen that Di Jing was in the northern border. It is indeed trapped by people, so the old minister thinks this letter should be credible.”

"What about the housekeeper?" Emperor Xuan suddenly asked, remembering the dream just now, and immediately shouted outside, "I will call King Jin into the palace immediately, and I will confront him."

"Wait." Wang Qianhe stopped the prince who was about to leave, and asked Emperor Xuan, "Your Majesty, are you summoning King Jin to ask for a crime?"

"Is he not guilty?"

"Your Majesty, you can't question King Jin." Wang Qianhe explained, "Zhai Jing is dead. There is only this letter and the housekeeper named Lu Cong. This evidence is not enough to identify King Jin. King Jin can say that he is Tao Tao." Enlightenment, or this is Zhai Jing's revenge."

Emperor Xuan's face was ugly at what he said, Wang Qianhe didn't seem to see it, and continued to say in a cold tone, "Even if you convict King Jin, how do you plan to deal with it, whether to kill him or lock him up, Your Majesty, the current King Jin has already He is guilty and no one dares to punish him.”

"Teacher, is it... is it true that he can no longer be my sixth younger brother?" Emperor Xuan finally said.

"Your Majesty, he is not His Highness the Sixth Prince, but the King of Jin. Your Majesty can only plan in secret, reduce his wings, reduce his prestige, and take it slowly." Wang Qianhe said and saluted deeply.

The sky outside the window had already turned blue, and a ray of light came in and dazzled into his eyes. Emperor Xuan nodded, finally agreeing with Wang Qianhe's words.

There is a peach grove in a corner of Dongshan in the capital city. When the peach blossoms are in full bloom, many literati come to enjoy the flowers.

In the depths of the peach forest, under the grass pavilion, Tang Jie was sitting in the middle of a coarse robe, Kong Guopei looked at him, everyone thought Tang Jie was a student visiting the scenery.

"Brother Tang invited me here to enjoy the flowers, right?"

Tang Jie took a sip of tea with a smile, and said, "The matter of the general is done, and the subordinate has brought you a new gift."

"Oh?" Kong Guopei was puzzled and said, "I thought the matter with the general had failed! Your Majesty and King Jin are still reconciled as before."

"That's wrong." Tang Jie shook his head and said, "The reconciliation as before is only superficial, and they will completely turn against each other. I'm here to discuss this matter with your lord."

Completely turned against each other!Kong Guopei was thinking secretly, Tang Jie didn't say it clearly, and he didn't want to ask. Although he was dubious, but Qi Jinyu turned against him, leaving him with few choices.

"I don't know what the king of Wu ordered"

"The military adviser hopes that your lord can take the lead in impeaching King Jin." Tang Jie still had that smiling expression.

"What crime?"

"Warning the border for many years without going to court, doing military affairs without obeying the emperor's order, not going to court for a long time, and abandoning the military administration of the northern border"

Kong Guopei looked at him suspiciously. These charges were nothing new. They had been impeached before, and they did not harm King Jin at all.

Tang Jieda saw his doubts, poured a cup of tea for him and said, "Don't worry, my lord, the military adviser said, Your Majesty and Wang Qianhe are waiting for your impeachment."

Kong Guopei looked at the white and clean Tang Jie in front of him, and suddenly felt that there were many conspiracies hidden under his simple and ordinary face, and he wondered what kind of person a military advisor could control such a person.

King Jin's Mansion

King Jin didn't go to court at all, and stayed in the back garden all day, hanging out with beauties. There was always a faint fragrance floating in the back garden of King Jin's mansion, with a charming and imaginative charm.

Zhao Zhiping turned another corridor, King Jin was lying on a soft couch, with the favored young master beside him, King Jin saw him, squinted his eyes for a while, and said with a smile, "Master Yu Shi is on the paper again?"

"Yes"

Qin Yu grabbed Qi Yun's hand and rubbed it in his palm, and said, "You came here on purpose, because someone started a new incident, let me guess...Wang Qianhe?"

"Your Highness is Holy Ming," Zhao Zhiping continued, "Doctor Censor is still talking about those things, but although Wang Qianhe didn't mention the responsibility of the Highness, he instead said that since the King of Jin is too busy to come to the Northern Frontier Army, it is better to set up another post to assist the Highness."

"Assist?" Qin Yu sneered and said, "The teacher really thinks of the students, what does your majesty say?"

"Your Majesty still hasn't made a statement, it looks like he wants to suppress impeachment"

If His Majesty wanted to suppress the impeachment, there would not be so many censors who continued to impeach him. Qin Yu glanced at Zhao Zhiping, and Mr. Zhao stood with his head down, as if waiting for orders.

"Sir, why do you have to stop talking?"

Mr. Zhao is smart, so he can naturally think of all this, but he hesitates to say it. Is it because he is afraid that he will blame him, or is he disappointed in the king?

"Military power in the northern border cannot be handed over," Zhao Zhiping replied.

"Of course, Your Majesty just wants to use the excuse of 'the ministers are dead, and I have no choice but to do it' to withdraw the power of the king. Naturally, the king should be considerate and write a memorial for the king, saying that the king is wrong."

"Yes." Zhao Zhiping agreed and continued to ask, "Does the lord want to hand it over directly?"

"No..." Qin Yu still looked like that, but his eyes were shining coldly, "Tomorrow, the king will go to court, and hand it over in front of all the officials and Lord Yushi."

Since everyone wants to make things big, how can I do it if I don't show up, I want to see how you guys want to end it.

Palace of Yongshou

His Royal Highness King Jin came to the court suddenly, and the ministers, whose sense of smell was comparable to that of a hunting dog, keenly sensed something unusual. The impeachment of the censors may have results today.

"Your Majesty" a censor stood up and said, "The king of Jin has guarded the border for many years, but he does not court His Majesty, despises the emperor's grace, and should be severely punished"

"Your Majesty, the Jin Dynasty has ruled the northern border for many years, and all the assassins appointed by the imperial court have been evaded. There is a strong intention to take the northern border as its own. This move is no different from plotting rebellion."

Hehe, Qin Yu laughed secretly in his heart, if it wasn't for the seriousness in the hall, he would have laughed out loud, how could he come up with such a high-sounding rhetoric.

"Your Majesty" didn't wait for His Royal Highness King Jin to finish his slander, another censor stood up, "The King Jin is free and loose, and if he moves, he will stay away for more than a month and despise the court"

There are so many things this king despises!Qin Yu secretly rolled his eyes and saw Wang Qianhe standing up.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty the King of Jin has guarded the border for many years and fought against the barbarians. Even if he has no credit, he has worked hard. Besides, the northern border is vast, and the King of Jin has fiefdoms. I am afraid that he will not be able to take care of them for a while. I hope that Your Majesty will forgive me and choose good talents to assist the King of Jin." "

Ah!It's still Prime Minister Wang who is very powerful, and if he is casual, he will have no credit, only hard work is left!In front of you, sing it, my appearance, if Qin Yu was not in it, it would be like applauding and rewarding them.

The hall finally fell into silence. Emperor Xuan looked at the humble people, and finally his eyes fell on King Jin who had been speechless all this time. Sixth Brother, how should you argue for yourself this time.

"Your Majesty" Qin Yu stood in the hall, shook his body, and knelt down on the ground with soft knees. The emperor's grace is nothing to be afraid of. I have been self-reflecting for several days in the mansion, and I am extremely ashamed. I hope that your majesty can remove my minister from the post of general of the northern border, so as to serve as an example."

King Jin knelt on the ground, lying very low, as if he would not get up if Emperor Xuan refused to agree. There was silence in the Yongshou Palace, and everyone looked at King Jin in secret puzzlement.

"Since that's the case, it's played by the King of Jin"

Qin Yu knelt on the ground, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he smiled coldly. Wang Qianhe saw that smile, and his heart suddenly became alert.

"Your Majesty Chen Qi," the king of Jin spoke again, slightly raising his head and looking forward, "I have been guarding the northern border since the first year of Yonghe, and the king has not returned to the feudal country so far. Now I don't hold the post of general in the northern border. Return to the fiefdom, so please Your Majesty to allow the minister to return to the state of Jin."

Hehe, Kong Guopei laughed secretly. Emperor Xuan and Wang Qian had a good plan to use their own hands to suppress King Jin, and wanted to regain control of King Jin, but he didn't expect that King Jin simply kicked over the table, making it difficult for everyone.

"Your Majesty, the king of Jin will be crowned for a long time, and there is something wrong with the subjects of the Jin Kingdom. I ask your majesty to grant His Highness King Jin's request." Kong Guopei bowed and pleaded.

"Subsidiary"

"Subsidiary"

People in the Confucian Party supported the proposal of King Jin to return to the country one after another. Emperor Xuan's face was dark. He glanced at Qi Jinyu who had been standing by the side without making a sound, thought it over and asked, "What does Qi Aiqing think about this matter?"

"I don't know, I hope His Majesty will judge you." Qi Jinyu knelt down as he said.

"Your Majesty, King Jin's loyalty is commendable, but if the prince returns to the feudal state, the ministers will know that the prince is loyal, but people in the world may mistakenly think that your majesty treats the heroes harshly." Wang Qianhe finally calmed down a little, and said to Emperor Xuan, "The prince is deeply loved." The Empress Dowager's favor, I'm afraid I have to report this matter to the Empress Dowager before making a decision."

Emperor Xuan's face softened a little, nodded and said, "What the prime minister said is very true, sixth brother, let's discuss this matter in the long run."

"My brother obeys the order" His Royal Highness King Jin kowtowed and bowed, his respectful attitude made all the officials in the hall jump out of the corners of their eyes.

Showa-dono

"I was negligent." Emperor Xuan was very calm on the contrary, maybe he no longer regarded Jin Wang as a younger brother, and everything was simple, "What do you think the teacher should do?"

Wang Qianhe pondered for a while and said, "Your Majesty should go see the Queen Mother, only the Queen Mother can solve this matter."

"Teacher wants the Queen Mother to come forward?" Emperor Xuan paused and continued, "I'm afraid the Queen Mother..."

"Your Majesty, although the Empress Dowager has enjoyed a peaceful life since she ascended the throne, when it comes to Dayong Sheji, the Empress Dowager will not be affectionate with her children. Don't worry, Your Majesty," Wang Qianhe persuaded.

He was in awe of the empress dowager who was in the deep palace, as long as she was able to push Emperor Xuan to the throne step by step, he was definitely not a soft-hearted person, and it was not the first time the empress dowager made such a choice.

Xuan nodded, looked in the direction of Changxin Hall and did not speak.

In April, the weather began to gradually heat up, and the flowers and plants outside the Changxin Hall were moving. Emperor Xuan sat in a sedan chair through the long corridor and stood at the gate of the Changxin Hall. bottom of his heart.

Emperor Xuan didn't know how to bring up the sixth brother's matter to his mother. In fact, since he had a quarrel with his sixth brother, he never knew how to tell his mother.The queen mother felt pity for the sixth brother in her heart, always felt that she owed the sixth brother, and always wanted to make up for him.

Emperor Xuan took a deep breath, settled his mind, entered Zhaohe Hall, and saw the Empress Dowager and Nangong Yuliang sitting in the room chatting, the Empress Dowager was in a good mood and smiled happily, which made him feel relieved.

"See the queen mother, what makes the queen mother so happy, tell the son to be happy too"

The queen mother waved her hand and said with a smile, "Talk to Yuliang about Yu'er's childhood."

Emperor Xuan's heart skipped a beat, he laughed dryly and did not speak, but sat on the sidelines secretly thinking about how to speak.Nangong Yuliang saw that Emperor Xuan's face was full of preoccupations, and he resigned without saying a few words.

"The queen mother heard about the early court that day," Emperor Xuan finally said.

"Hao'er, if you ask me for something, you have to tell me what it is?" The Queen Mother looked at him and asked.

Emperor Xuan turned his body sideways, not daring to look at the Queen Mother. He was about to speak when he heard the Queen Mother say to him, "Hao'er, do you really want to tell the Queen Mother if you think about it?".

The Empress Dowager looked at him with her dark eyes, as if she could pierce people's hearts. Emperor Xuan's heart skipped a beat, as if something had touched him, and he suddenly let go of his nervousness.

"The queen mother, the sixth younger brother asks for an edict to return to the fief, and the son hopes that the queen mother can keep the sixth younger brother."

"Hao'er, why didn't you tell the queen mother that you are going to take his military power, so he has to go back?" The queen mother looked out the window and asked him leisurely.

"The northern border army belongs to the imperial court, and even if the military power is taken away, the northern border will..." Emperor Xuan did not continue, but took out the letter from Di Jing from his arms, put it on the table and slowly pushed it to the Queen Mother's letter. In front of him, "the queen mother will understand after seeing this, the son is also for Dayong's community"

The Empress Dowager put her hand on the letter, lightly tapped it with her fingers, but did not open it. She pondered for a while and looked up at Emperor Xuan and said, "The Empress Dowager does not read this."

Emperor Xuan frowned and was about to speak, but the queen mother raised her hand to interrupt, and asked calmly, "Hao'er, do you really don't want him to return to the fief?"

"The son hopes that the mother will keep the sixth younger brother," Emperor Xuan said seriously.

"Okay." The Queen Mother nodded and said to him, "You can rest assured about this matter, I will keep him for His Majesty, you can go back."

"Mother Queen" Emperor Xuan wanted to say something to comfort her.

"I understand that your majesty is for the sake of the country, you can go back." The queen mother smiled at him and closed her eyes.

Emperor Xuan saluted and retreated, feeling a sense of complacency in his heart. Although his mother spoiled his sixth younger brother, he still chose himself in the end, which gave him a little bit of comfort.

In the hall, Chu Cui stood beside the Empress Dowager, "Is the Empress Dowager going to rest?"

"Did you hear what you said just now?" The Queen Mother turned around and asked.

"I heard"

The Queen Mother half leaned on the couch, and asked with a wry smile, "Tweety, do you think this is retribution?"

Chu Cui paused, remembering the years when he and the queen mother were in the deep palace, suddenly smiled and said, "What's wrong with the queen mother, don't you never believe this, you are still alive, Cui'er believes that no one can hurt the second highness and His Royal Highness the Sixth"

yes!No one can hurt my son, not even themselves.

The author has something to say:

Really, why is this Jinjiang manuscript suddenly not easy to use? No newcomer has any experience, so it is very troublesome to upload it with a mobile phone. My article is still long, so I have to copy it several times.

Again, my post is really long.
