Chapter 116: King Pingnan
Chapter 116 King Pingnan
royal palace, royal study
Zhu Houzhao looked at the secret report from the West Factory and laughed angrily.
"Okay, okay, there are actually people who look exactly like me in this world. It's really great!"
"Marquis Zhuge, please go to the west city gate and bring this man back to me."
Zhuge Zhengwo smiled and said: "I will come back as soon as I go!"
"Wait a minute, Shenhou told Ximen Chuixue that Ye Gucheng died at the hands of Xia Yan, and asked him to leave the Hall of Supreme Harmony. At the same time, he went to inform Xia Yan and asked him to go to Yangzhou tomorrow!"
"This farce must end!"
Zhu Houzhao's eyes flashed with cold light, obviously he was really angry!
Zhuge Zhengwo smiled and nodded, tapped his feet lightly, and drifted away.
After Zhuge Zheng and I left, Wang Zhi took the half-dead Wang An into the imperial study.
"Your Majesty, he's done it all!"
"Yangzhou is dangerous. Without the suppression of the imperial power, the Supreme Alliance and the Sea Shark Palace will become even more rampant, and the people will have a hard time living."
"Impossible. He is holding an imperial edict and looks exactly like the emperor. How could it be fake?"
"Although you keep pretending to be joking, the Ming Dynasty's national power is booming, and they want to change their emperor."
This is simply a rush!
After Zhu Houzhao came to Leng Palace, he saw King Pingnan holding a piece of cloth and helping an old woman wipe her body.
"The palace is not a place for them to run wild."
The old woman's face has traces of time, but it can still be vaguely seen that she was once a very beautiful person.
"Thank you Shenhou Zhuge for reminding me." Xia Yan smiled, "Ye Gucheng was not the only one who said before he died that it would be best to strengthen the palace guards."
To win is to win.
Only by biting each other can they have a chance to get something out of the chaos.
King Pingnan looked at the old woman and slowly knelt down to Zhu Houzhao, "My mother-in-law is already stupid. Please let her go, your Majesty."
Wang An's expression was dull, like a puppet on strings, and he slowly told the location of King Pingnan!
Hu Hao was full of disbelief, thinking that Zhuge Zhengwo and Xia Yan had united to rebel.
While he is scheming against others, others are also scheming against him.
"He is a good boy, but he is a fool." King Pingnan didn't take it seriously.
"Uncle Huang hasn't answered my question yet." Zhu Houzhao asked calmly.
King Pingnan kept holding his hand and said calmly: "I just came to see my mother and concubine."
Zhuge Zheng was slightly shocked, but he quickly calmed down and carried the fake emperor to the palace.
"General Hu, you have been deceived. The real emperor is in the palace." Zhuge Zhengwo said with a smile.
At the same time, after Zhuge Zhengwo informed Ximen Chuixue, they came to the west gate together.
The old woman reached for the pastry on the table. King Pingnan put down the cloth in his hand, reached for the pastry, and put it to her mouth.
"Who are they that the emperor is talking about?"
Zhu Houzhao frowned slightly, and then he realized that King Pingnan might just be a chess piece, a chess piece used to test the reality inside and outside the palace.
Xia Yan pointed in a direction, "He fled towards the Shenji Camp, probably to get siege equipment."
"Where is King Pingnan now? I want to see him!" Zhu Houzhao said coldly.
Zhuge Zheng hoped that Xia Yan would resolve this matter as soon as possible so that the people could cultivate and live a healthy life.
Ximen Chuixue naturally didn't believe in luck and looked at Xia Yan deeply.
"This is treating my harem as his home!"
Xia Yan's face darkened and he thought to himself: Do you want to ask me first if I agree?
King Pingnan only had eyes for the old woman and could not tolerate anyone else.
The old woman took a bite and said with a wide smile: "It's delicious, it's delicious."
Hu Hao was shocked and said angrily: "Zhuge is correcting me, but you also want to rebel."
"King Pingnan rebelled, Master Hu, please don't be stubborn." Seeing that Hu Hao still didn't believe it, Zhuge Zhengga persuaded him again and stopped reminding him.
"Wang Zhi, please send the emperor's uncle, mother and son on their way." Zhu Houzhao couldn't get the answer, so naturally he would not allow the rebels to live.
But when he heard this, Zhu Houzhao jumped up and said angrily: "How brave he is. He actually deceived the palace guards and entered the harem."
"You stole my opponent, and I will ask you to test the sword in three months."
"Uncle, you have been coming to the palace for many days, but have you found what you want?"
If Xia Yan were here, he would have discovered that King Pingnan was completely different from the one seen at the New Year Banquet.
Heading to Yangzhou? Xia Yan nodded lightly, "I will leave Beijing after everything is handed over tomorrow."
Zhuge Zhengwo looked at Ye Gucheng who fell to the ground and said with a smile: "Master Xia, where is the young man who looks exactly like the emperor?"
Ximen Chuixue looked at Xia Yan and said coldly: "Kill him."
After saying this, Ximen Chuixue jumped out of the city and disappeared into the vast night.
On the contrary, Xia Yan thought this was a good thing. It was just a kind reminder from others, and he couldn't refuse the kindness.
"If one of the parties unifies Yangzhou, the imperial court will completely lose control of Yangzhou."
"Zhu Dai is the vassal king with a rebellious background, and his rules are simply a joke." King Pingnan sneered.
"Eldest nephew, I don't have any objections to you, but many people in the world do."
Since you want to fulfill your filial piety, let the two of you go together!
King Pingnan stood up from the ground with a bitter look on his face. He already knew the result, but he was unwilling to do so and struggled pointlessly.
"I don't know either. I just know that if I don't do what they say, I won't be able to survive, and neither will my mother-in-law."
Zhu Houzhao took Wang Zhi and walked straight to the cold palace.
The cake crumbs sprayed on King Pingnan's face, but he remained unmoved. He picked up his sleeve and wiped his face, and then wiped the dirt from the corners of the old woman's mouth and clothes.
"The vassal prince is not allowed to enter the capital without summons. You have violated the rules set by Grandpa Cheng." Zhu Houzhao said calmly.
Rampant? I’m afraid they’re not brazen enough!
If these two forces do not fight dog-eat-dog and just develop their forces quietly, there is really nothing they can do against them.
Zhuge Zhengwo had a direction and jumped down from the city wall. His body was neither fast nor slow, but he crossed the battlefield at an extremely fast speed.
"Xia Yan, I have to go to the palace to resume my duties. The emperor has asked you to go to Yangzhou tomorrow." Zhuge Zhengwo said seriously.
It's just that there is a chance to come back in the martial arts space, but in reality there is only one life.
"I'm very lucky." Xia Yan understood that what he did just now was just a bad idea, and he would be found out after one time.
This is the emperor's family matter, and he would not dare to interfere without permission.
"I'll be back as soon as I go."
King Pingnan is still calm. He has been living in seclusion for these years, leaving Prince Pingnan's palace to a substitute, and he has already regarded himself as a dead person.
What's more, King Pingnan was afraid of them, but not afraid of him as the emperor, which made him extremely angry.
Zhu Houzhao's expression remained unchanged, "Uncle Huang deliberately tried to create a person who looks exactly like me. Why did he do it?"
Zhu Houzhao was so angry that he was trembling all over. This was because he was trying to lay an egg on the back of a chicken. By then, it would be clear that his lineage was actually dead!
Wang Zhi stood at the bottom and said nothing.
After a cup of tea, Zhuge Zhengwo jumped from outside the city to the city wall, carrying a young man who looked exactly like Zhu Houzhao.
He took out a small bottle from his arms, sprinkled some powder on the pastry, and fed it to the old woman, "Concubine, my child will pay filial piety to you in the next life."
After the old woman finished eating the pastry in a daze, her eyes became a little clearer, just like when she was a child. She smiled and touched King Pingnan's face.
King Pingnan finally couldn't help but shed tears and ate the cake with tears.
A cold air gradually spread over the two of them, freezing them up.
