Raise an emperor as a villain

Chapter 9 Going to the fiefdom

After the dispersal of the court, a large group of courtiers came and surrounded Chen Jianzheng, and even the important ministers of the six cabinets didn't care about their own identities.

"Lord Chen, what is this today..." Lord Duan from the cabinet asked, he hesitated to speak in the middle of what he said, this matter really cannot be made public blatantly.

"The lower officials have urgent matters at home, so I'll leave first." Chen Jieyuan bowed his hands to the people around him, and then hurried away through the crowd.After leaving the hall and being blown by the cold wind, Chen Jieyuan realized that he was already sweating profusely at some point.He couldn't help but think back to what the queen mother said to him in Shoukang Palace.

"Chen Aiqing, now the emperor doesn't believe in the astrology of destiny, and your Qin Tianjian is nothing, I think you are also very unwilling!" The Queen Mother knelt in front of the Buddha statue, holding a string of beads in her hand, and asked herself while counting.

Hearing this, he immediately kowtowed and said, "I absolutely dare not have such an idea."

"You don't have to pretend in front of Aijia, it's normal to have ideas. Aijia called you here today because I have something to tell you."

"What orders does the Empress Dowager have? I will never hesitate to die." Hearing these words, he felt uneasy. Everyone knew that the current emperor and the empress dowager were not biological mothers, and the emperor respected the empress dowager only for his own reputation.How many brains does he dare to do for the queen mother! But he would never dare to offend the queen mother directly, so he had to agree first, and then find a reason to excuse him after the queen mother said.

"Aijia wants you to say in front of the emperor that the astrology of Yinghuo Shouxin appears today, and the culprit is the crown prince."

As soon as the Queen Mother's words came out of his mouth, he was terrified. He really didn't understand why the Queen Mother wanted to attack his own grandson. "The empress dowager clearly learned that a humble minister is just a humble minister, and it is really difficult for him to take on great responsibilities."

"Don't rush to refuse. The emperor has long regarded the prince as a thorn in his side. Your move is just to give him a chance to abolish the prince justifiably. The emperor may reuse you for this. What's more, even if you listen It's unexpected, how could the emperor suspect that you are working for the Ai family?"

"I don't understand why the Empress Dowager did this?" He was a little tempted. Since the British Emperor left, Qin Tianjian has been neglected. He is also in an awkward situation, but now he has such a good opportunity in front of him.

"The crown prince is the eldest grandson of the Ai family. Naturally, the Ai family hopes that he can inherit the throne. However, the Ai family's first concern is to save his life. The son of the Ai family has fallen into the hands of barbarians. I can't come back, now Ai's family only has this grandson, so how can I not try my best to keep him safe?"

When the queen mother said this, she was no longer the queen mother of a country but more like an ordinary grandmother, working hard for her children.So Chen Jieyuan agreed by accident. Thinking about it now, things went smoothly unexpectedly.

The decree of abolishing the prince and changing the title of King Su was quickly sent to the East Palace. Ming Jue knew that it was the queen mother's plan to protect herself, so she accepted it without any complaints.

"In short, I don't know if I will come this time. I heard that Qizhou is extremely bitter and cold, much colder than the capital. Are you willing to follow me?" Ming Jue was cautious after Xuanzhi's servant left. He asked Lu Hengxiu carefully, his expression showed that he was very nervous, as if he would cry as soon as Lu Hengxiu said that he didn't want to.

"Your Highness, I naturally want to go with you, but now that His Highness is in charge, there will be many people around to wait on you. I'm afraid His Highness will look down on me and won't take me with you?" Lu Hengxiu saw Ming Jue's fragility , how can you say you don't want to?

"Where is this? Why would I not want to take you with me? No matter how many people there are, I can't compare to you alone. If I... If I get tired of you one day, I will die badly." Ming Jue As if he didn't hear the banter in Lu Hengxiu's tone, he swore in a panic.

"What nonsense did your Highness say? Your Highness will live a long life, and you are not allowed to say such things again." Lu Hengxiu threatened viciously, but Ming Jue laughed.

"In short, you look good when you are fierce." Ming Jue looked up at Lu Hengxiu with a silly look.

"Your Highness, what nonsense are you talking about?" Lu Hengxiu was a little shy when he stared at him with shining eyes, a blush flew over his jade-like face.

Ming Jue was still staring at him, but saw Lu Hengxiu tear open his collar and pull something out from his neck. "Your Highness, I followed Eunuch Dexi to the Fayun Temple to ask for this. It is said that the abbot consecrated it, and it can keep people safe." He said and tied the talisman around Mingjue's neck.

This time, because of Ruidi's reason, the efficiency of the six parts is rare.The manpower, chariots, horses, and guards that King Su wanted to bring with him to the fiefdom were all ready in a few days.

Lu Hengxiu was still uneasy in his heart, being able to leave the palace was only the first step towards freedom, and arriving at the fief safely was the real escape.And from the capital city to Qizhou, at least one month's journey away, needless to say how many hardships and dangers this journey has.After much deliberation, Lu Hengxiu felt that he should find the queen mother.

"Eunuch Dexi, I want to meet the Queen Mother." Lu Hengxiu has been busy with Mingjue's going to the fief for the past few days, and finally found time to find Dexi.

"Oh, why are you looking for the Queen Mother?" Although Dexi asked the question, there was no trace of doubt in his expression, as if he knew he would come.

"I have something important to report to the Empress Dowager, and it is about His Highness. Please also report it to your father-in-law."

"You come with our house, the queen mother ordered that if you come, she will take you there directly." Dexi said softly.

Dexi led Lu Hengxiu in, and the air was full of the smell of sandalwood, which Lu Hengxiu didn't notice when he came to Shoukang Palace last time.

"What do you want to say to Ai's family?"

"I've met the Empress Dowager." Lu Hengxiu knelt down to pay his respects, and continued: "Empress Dowager, although His Highness was able to leave Beijing, but there are still many dangers on the road. Even if the Emperor can let His Highness go, how can King Qing and King Fu be willing to let us go?" Did His Highness leave safely?"

"Oh, what should you do in your opinion?" Naturally, she was aware of the risks Ming Jue faced along the way, but there was no good way to deal with them.Although there are still some people in her hands who can be used, it is not appropriate to expose them immediately.

"According to my slave's humble opinion, it is better to find someone to pretend to be His Royal Highness and take the main road to enfeoff the land. While His Highness is protected by hidden guards, take a small road and leave."

"That's a good idea." The Queen Mother frowned and began to seriously consider the feasibility of Lu Hengxiu's plan. "Okay, this matter is up to you."

Hearing this, Lu Hengxiu let go of the heart that had been hanging on him all this time, knelt in salute, and then slowly backed out.Just when he was about to leave Shoukang Palace, Dexi ran out and stopped him, "Little Luzi, come here."

He had no choice but to stop, walked over and asked, "What are your father-in-law's orders?" His attitude was very humble.

"You are blessed." Dexi said while looking at him with a smile that was not a smile, "I knew you were a good fortune. Although you entered the palace as a sinful slave, you didn't have to go through the castration. Now that you are valued by the queen mother, If you can go out of Beijing with His Royal Highness King Su, you will be on the way to Qingyun immediately."

"My father-in-law's words are serious, but it's just giving people the life of a slave. How can it be called good fortune?"

"Don't you know? This slave and slave are not the same." Dexi took out something from his sleeve and stuffed it into Lu Hengxiu's hand, "here, take this and draw it Before His Royal Highness King Su leaves Beijing, go to the largest bank in Beijing to take out the money stored by the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager said that there must be a place for the money to be used by the Highness, and let you keep it for His Highness. If you have a chance, you can buy some properties , it would be the best if you can return to Beijing, if you can't come back, you must ensure that His Highness has no worries about food and clothing."

Lu Hengxiu looked at the black seal that Dexi handed over, but he didn't know what the texture was, but the tentacles were actually very moist.He knew that the Empress Dowager really valued her now, instead of treating him as a slave.Is it because of his proposal just now?He didn't know either, but he knew that his fate was more closely linked with Mingjue's.

The jade talisman that the Empress Dowager handed over to Ming Jue was used to mobilize the hidden guards left behind by the British Emperor. The British Emperor had set up twelve dark guards when he was there. After that, only shadow guards were left gradually.If the number is reduced, the quality will naturally improve. This Shadow Division Guard can be called the essence of the Twelve Guards, and the people inside are all carefully selected top ones from the Twelve Guards in the past.

When the British emperor left, he handed over this power to the queen mother. He led the army to go out and thought it would be an easy victory, but unexpectedly, he would never come back once he left. The real military power in the hands of the queen mother Only this dark guard of less than a thousand people remained.Now that the queen mother has handed over the film director guard to Ming Jue, and also asked Lu Hengxiu to plan for Ming Jue, it can be seen that all hopes are placed on this eldest grandson.

The current leader of the shadow department guard is a young man in his early twenties, whose name is Tianshu.He was originally an orphan, living on the streets begging for a living.Later, the former head of the shadow division guard met him during his mission, so he picked him up and took him back as his adopted son to teach him martial arts.Tianshu was born in poverty, and he would repay someone who treated him well, so he worked hard in practicing martial arts, coupled with his talent and intelligence, so at a young age, martial arts has already penetrated into the realm of perfection.

After the death of Tianshu's adoptive father, he inherited the position of commander of the shadow department and guard, and has been working secretly for the queen mother for several years.This time, Lu Hengxiu proposed the golden cicada's plan to get rid of his shell. It was this young leader who was responsible for protecting Mingjue. At the moment, he was discussing with Lu Hengxiu about the specific escort matters.

"Eunuch Lu, you said that you only sent 300 people to protect His Highness, which is too little." Tianshu looked at a young eunuch who was only 15 years old in front of him, and his tone could not help being a bit contemptuous.

"This matter focuses on concealment. If there are too many people, it will be easy to reveal their whereabouts." Lu Hengxiu was not angry when he heard this, and still explained patiently.

Tianshu originally wanted to anger Lu Hengxiu, but now that he is neither arrogant nor impetuous, he feels that he is a little reckless. "If it's for concealment, then Eunuch should follow the big team. Now many people know that His Highness cannot do without you. If you are not seen in the big team, it will be suspicious." Tianshu said this on purpose Yes, he expected Lu Heng to repair a small interior, and he would not dare to risk his life to follow the dangerous team.

"Of course I want to follow the big team." Lu Hengxiu's face looked very weak under the dim light, which made people feel a little pity.In addition, his tone was flat, as if everything was as it should be, and he didn't seem to worry about how much risk he was about to take on this trip.

Now Jiao Tianshu admired him a little bit in his heart, he also lived in the deep palace for a long time, doing the most dirty and dirty things in the royal family.Have you ever really seen a person like Lu Hengxiu who has a pure heart and is not foolish and loyal?
