Raise an emperor as a villain

It is midsummer now, the Mongolian prairie is cloudless, the blue sky is high and vast, occasionally there are gurgling springs, and there are fertile aquatic plants by the small river.This vast and magnificent grassland scene was already very familiar to Emperor Mingying, because he had been here for a full ten years.

At the beginning, he was full of longing for his homeland, imagining that his ministers would find ways to bring him back from this barbaric land, but later he waited for the news that his younger brother King Ning had ascended the throne.So he, the king of a country, became a past tense, and became a tasteless overlord.

As the days passed, he gradually got used to life in the grassland. He has a gentle temperament. Even as a captive in Mongolia, he didn't suffer too much. He also made good friends with many Mongolian princes and nobles.And two years after he completely gave up the idea of ​​escaping, he gained a certain degree of freedom.

However, he was very excited to be able to return to his country now. He heard about Mingjue's deeds from the Mongols who escorted him back to his country.Feeling ashamed, Ming Jue was only four years old when he was captured. How much hardship had that child, whom he placed high hopes on, to be the crown prince from birth, gone through?And these hardships are all because of the incompetence of his father.I have failed too much, whether as a father or as an emperor.

But obviously God is not as kind as he imagined.Destiny has always been good at turning clouds and rains and teasing the world, even the emperor is no exception.

Fortunately, God gave him a chance to make amends, allowing him to return to the prosperous imperial capital where he grew up in his lifetime.

The Xiao Ming Dynasty clearly stipulated that the vassal king Wu Zhao was not allowed to leave the fief, otherwise he would be regarded as treason.The last time Mingjue left was forced by the war situation, but this time there was no excuse.Regarding the matter of Emperor Mingying's return to the country, he has no involvement at all. Mongolia will escort Emperor Mingying all the way to the border of Xiaoming, and then hand it over to the officials sent by the Communist Party, and they will escort him back to Beijing.

Under such circumstances, even if Emperor Ming Ying passed by near Qizhou, Ming Jue had no chance to meet his emperor father at all.This made him feel deeply powerless, as if he wasn't the one who ruled the battlefield and decided life and death with his hands. The lofty ambitions of the past were nothing under the suppression of the imperial power. Even if he returned to the imperial capital, he would face a long-term punishment, and it must be a harsher punishment than when he was the prince.

"Your Highness, let's eat something!" Lu Hengxiu took time out of his busy schedule to deliver lunch to Ming Jue himself.

Ming Jue recovered from his contemplation, saw that it was Lu Hengxiu, and said the phrase 'I don't want to eat, take it down! ' Swallowed it back again.

"In short, I can't eat it. Father, he..." Ming Jue hesitated to speak.

Seeing this, Lu Hengxiu sat down in front of Ming Jue and said, "Your Highness, now is the perfect time. Now that Emperor Ming Rui is terminally ill, he probably won't be able to last long. And the country has no heir, and King Qing is only at the age of a weak crown. , does not have much real power in his hands. As long as His Majesty the British Emperor returns to China, he will definitely be able to regain the throne."

"Heh!" Ming Jue couldn't help but chuckled when he heard Lu Hengxiu's comfort in every possible way, and his depressed mood relaxed a bit.Thinking about the current situation, it is not only a hundred times better than when he was in the East Palace, it can be seen that people are greedy.Get a little and want more.

"In short, I...I want to send someone to join the escort team so as to protect the safety of the emperor. Although I can't leave and go there in person, I can't just wait for death. At least I must do my duty as a son of man." Ming Jue had been in a trance for a few days, and only now thought of sending someone there.

"Your Highness, don't worry, I have already sent someone." Lu Hengxiu has been tempered for a long time. Although he can't do everything, he will not forget the most basic things.After he said this, Ming Jue lowered his head and began to eat obediently.

Lu Hengxiu paid attention to sending people when he heard the news, because the escort team was still in Mongolia and most of them were Mongolians, so the people he sent to pretend were also Mongolians.Now that the escort team is about to reach the border of the Xiao Ming Dynasty, he has to start planning how to sneak into the welcome team sent by the police, this is the most difficult part.Mongolia took the initiative to seek peace and sent back Emperor Mingying to show their sincerity, so they will definitely do their best to protect Emperor Ying, so the journey abroad is the safest.But once they return to the country, they will fall into the sphere of influence of many parties. There are countless people who want to put Emperor Ming Ying to death for various reasons, but the escort team may not really want to protect it. This is the most deadly point. of.

But when Lu Hengxiu focused on how to sneak into the people sent by the court, a shocking and sad news came from among the escorts sent by Lu Hengxiu not far from Qizhou. : 'Emperor Mingying died suddenly'.

The situation at that time was like this, one night passed, and when someone went to deliver breakfast in the morning, they found that Emperor Ming Ying had died peacefully in his tent, with a smile on his mouth, as if he had just slept happily and had a good dream, no one I know what he dreamed about, whether he has returned to the motherland he yearns for in his dream, but everyone knows that he will never wake up again.

Such a death is silent, without any warning.The Mongolian doctors, not to mention rescue, couldn't even tell the cause of death.The first reaction of Qingge, who was in charge of the escort mission, was to conceal it. It was really hard for him to imagine the consequences of screwing up such an important mission that Da Khan entrusted to him. Of course, the more important thing was that he didn't think he had done anything wrong.

Emperor Mingying died by himself. He was not physically strong enough, rather than suffered external injuries such as assassins. It was purely bad luck that he caught up with such a bad thing.He even thought that since Emperor Mingying hadn't returned to China for ten years, he might as well find a substitute to send him there.

Qingge's thinking like this reveals that his mind is too simple. It is impossible to hide the death of an emperor, even if the emperor is not the current emperor.

Mingjue soon learned of the news, and after Lu Hengxiu told him the bad news, he quietly stayed by his side, always ready to bear Mingjue's anger, despair and even roaring.But Mingjue didn't react too aggressively, as if the result he had been waiting for had finally come out, he was relieved instead.

In fact, Ming Jue didn't have much affection for his father, after all, he was only four years old when Emperor Ming Ying left him, and his memory had neither his father's appearance nor his father's deeds.What Emperor Ming Ying left for him was the humiliation of being imprisoned in the deep palace, and the suffering of fleeing in a panic.

But he still has expectations for his royal father in his heart. After all, even now he is only a 16-year-old boy, and he still has a weak side in his heart. He longs for a powerful royal father to protect him, but Not everything has to be fought for by oneself.

Fate will deprive you of your hard-earned hope at any time, but Ming Jue is no longer afraid at this moment. He knows that there are some things he is destined to experience, some things he must get, and some people... must be protected at all costs.He looked at Lu Hengxiu, who was quietly standing beside him and bowed his head.

"In short, I'm going to send Emperor Father back in person." Ming Jue said calmly after a moment of silence.

"Your Highness, there are treacherous turmoil in the capital right now. Going back like this is tantamount to a wolf entering a tiger's mouth. It's too dangerous!" Lu Hengxiu's first reaction was to object. The death of Emperor Mingying must not have been done by the Mongols, so The real murderer must be hiding in Xiao Ming's palace.Since he was able to kill Emperor Ming Ying who was thousands of miles away without anyone noticing, he must also be able to kill a Ming Jue who ran into his sphere of influence.Going back at this time is tantamount to moths to the flame.

"In short, that's my father. Father is the emperor until he dies. I must let him enter the imperial mausoleum justifiably. As long as he is still the descendant of the Xiao family as emperor, he will go to the Taimiao to worship father. Father The emperor did not dominate the situation during his lifetime, and I will make him mourn after his death." As soon as these words came out, the wind and thunder fissioned, and the world was turned upside down, and the sound of gold and iron horses could be faintly heard in the calm words.
