"It's okay, you go back first and have a good rest." Emperor Jian'an smiled slightly, "Gao Desheng, go and invite the imperial physician over."
"Yes." Huo Jingchen knew that he didn't want to show his fragile side in front of him, and his heart was so sour and astringent, and he stepped down with difficulty.
After walking out of Zhengde Hall, Huo Jingchen suddenly turned around and looked at the palace he had been to countless times since childhood. He was neither sad nor happy, but he was a little sad.
Some things are indeed different. In the past, he only regarded Emperor Jian'an as a loving elder, but now he has been mixed with many complex emotions, which has disrupted his mood.
At this time, Huo Jingchen suddenly wanted to see Jiang Hexi, and even had an impulse to go out of the city to see her, but when he thought of the imminent major events and the sky that was getting darker in the night, he forced himself to hold it back.
As soon as he walked out of the palace gate, Huo Jingchen actually met King Xin who entered the palace.
"It's okay, you're leaving the palace so late." King Xin said with a smile.
Huo Jingchen looked at him with a faint expression. When he captured Zhang Xiang, he found something was wrong. It was just that the situation was urgent and there was no time to think about it. Now that I think about it, there was still a third person's work on this matter.
Maybe it is His Highness, the seemingly harmless King Xin in front of him.
"Your Highness is so late to enter the palace?" Huo Jingchen bowed and said in discomfortably.
King Xin sighed hypocritically, "The eldest brother passed away, and the father must be very sad. As a son, I cannot be indifferent. After all, it is a brother. I also want to send my eldest brother off."
"Your Highness is intent, and I still have something to do, so I will take it back first." Huo Jingchen lowered his eyes halfway, afraid that he could not help but the sarcasm in his eyes.
King Xin nodded with a good temper until he could not see Huo Jingchen's departure back. He narrowed his eyes, a nearly inaudible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and turned around and entered the palace in a good mood.
But when he walked to Zhengde Hall, he was stopped by Gao Desheng.
"Your Highness, Your Majesty is already asleep. It is not convenient to see you. Please come back tomorrow."
"His father fell asleep?" King Xin raised his eyebrows, knowing that Emperor Jian'an didn't want to see him, and he didn't force him. "Since the father has already fallen asleep, I won't disturb you anymore. Please take good care of Eunuch Gao.
Father.”
"Brother was unfortunately killed. I felt uncomfortable. I wanted to see my elder brother for the last time. I don't know where my elder brother's body is now. I want to go and incense sticks for my elder brother." King Xin looked pious, and tears were actually in his eyes.
Who is Gao Desheng? How come he doesn't know what the King Xin was thinking in front of him, and he couldn't help but look down on King Xin. King Xiang is dead and there is still the third prince. Even if the third prince is young, there is still Marquis of Weiyuan, no matter how
It’s no way to be the fox, King Xin.
He was an old man who had been with Emperor Jian'an for decades, so he could naturally guess a little bit. He had known for a long time that His Highness King Xin had no chance, but he would not reveal anything in front of him.
"In the Imperial Concubine's bedroom."
Hearing his name, King Xin's eyes flashed slightly, nodded with a smile, and walked away.
Gao Desheng walked straight into the palace and went to the death.
In the magnificent palace, there was no one on the dragon throne, but the court officials were covered with court officials. The ministers had already put on court uniforms and had been waiting there for a long time.
Early this morning, everyone received news that it was about to hold a court meeting. Emperor Jian'an said he had not attended court for many days. The court officials couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, but because of the faces of Grand Master Song and Xiang Zhao, they didn't say anything.
But they naturally heard the bloody storm last night.
Zhang's mansion was directly surrounded by the Black Armored Guards. Early this morning, the people from Zhang's mansion were directly taken to the jail, and there were also the deputy commander of the Imperial Guards and others.
Now the people of Shengjing City knew about it. King Xiang wanted to force the palace to usurp the throne, but Emperor Jian'an directly captured it. However, he did not expect that King Xiang could not bear the humiliation and committed suicide directly!
The world changed last night.
Standing in front of the Song Taishi, Zhao Xiang and others looked at their noses and their hearts, just pretending that they had not heard the vague sound of discussion coming from behind.
At this time, Emperor Jian'an, wearing an imperial robe, walked onto the dragon throne.
"My dear friends, I believe you already know what happened yesterday. King Xiang has committed suicide by plotting a rebellion." Emperor Jian'an looked at the people who lowered their heads and did not dare to speak. He didn't care and said, "Zhang Xiang-wallow" and said, "Zhang Xiang-wallow" with sharp eyes. People will deal with it according to the law. Today I call you over and have more important things to discuss."
After saying that, Emperor Jian'an glanced at Gao Desheng on the side.
Gao Desheng understood the gods, picked up the imperial edict in his hand, shouting loudly: "In accordance with the will of heaven, the emperor ordered that the third prince Xiao Han was smart, filial and kind, and I felt so relieved, and I was appointed as the crown prince... I admire this!"
Hearing this, everyone was shocked and looked at Emperor Jian'an in surprise.
King Xin trembled even more, looked up in disbelief, but saw Emperor Jian'an looking at him expressionlessly, and he skipped a beat. He quickly lowered his head and suppressed his unwillingness in his heart. He just clenched his fists. But it showed his inner uneasiness.
"Long live Your Majesty." Grand Master Song and Zhao looked at each other. They had known Emperor Jian'an's plan for a long time, but now they were not surprised, and they took the lead in echoing.
The other court officials came to their senses and shouted loudly: "Long live Your Majesty!"
King Xin also bowed to everyone, but his heart became more and more unwilling.
Why! He was obviously the son of Emperor Jian'an, but he had no position in his heart. Before, King Xiang had a long word, and his mother was Concubine Zhang, who was the most favored by the harem. Although he said that King Xiang was not as good as him , but also know that they are equally matched opponents.
But what is Xiao Han? He is just a child and is actually qualified to compete with him!
How ridiculous, how ridiculous!
King Xin was so angry that he wanted to kill someone, but he calmly followed others to compliment him.
But at this time Huo Jingchen stood up, bowed to Emperor Jian'an, and looked at King Xin meaningfully.
When King Xin saw this scene, he skipped a beat and suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
Sure enough, Huo Jingchen spoke in the next second: "Your Majesty, I have something important to report."
"Just say it straight." Emperor Jian'an nodded.
Huo Jingchen looked at King Xin coldly and said bluntly: "There is another hidden truth in the case of King Xiang. I found that King Xin is involved, and the Taoist Yin Meiren and Taoist Qingxu seem to be the ones of King Xin!"
"What did you say!" Emperor Jian'an sat upright, and his sharp eyes turned to King Xin.
King Xin's heart sank, but he pretended to be shocked to be wronged, "My son is wronged, father, Marquis Weiyuan is slandering his son."
"Your Highness does not need to rush to express your grievances. It is better to listen to me first. If I wrongly accuse you, I will not be rush to seize my crimes at that time." Huo Jingchen said slowly: "Your Majesty, I have already followed you." The truth was found when Master Qingxu interrogated. Your Majesty might as well summon Master Qingxu and ask, wouldn’t you know it?”
"Come, Xuan!" Emperor Jian'an's eyes were obscure, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.
He knew very well what Huo Jingchen was. If he was not sure, how could he point to King Xin and say his sins in front of so many people? This matter is probably true!
OK, both of his good sons want him to die!
It seems that the throne is really attractive. Emperor Jian'an couldn't help but hold the handle of the dragon throne underneath, and his heart was unprecedentedly complicated.
Taoist Master Qingxu was quickly taken in.
"Sinners meet your Majesty." Taoist Qingxu gave a big gift and knelt down.
Taoist Master Qingxu, who was originally immortal, was now very embarrassed, with a haggard face, a little messy hair, and his whole cheeks were sunken. He looked like he suffered a lot.
If he hadn't changed his clothes on purpose, he would have been even more embarrassed now.
"Qingxu, you come from the truth. Who sent you to murder me?" Emperor Jian'an said gritting his teeth.
Taoist Master Qingxu didn't look at the panicked King Xin, and slowly said: "Your Majesty, the sinner used to be just the master of a Taoist temple. On weekdays, the Taoist temple is full of incense and the people believe in it, so it is famous, and the sinners have become the words of everyone.
The living god.”
"But only the sinner knows that all this was planned long ago. These are just tricks of sinners and are not worth mentioning." Taoist Qingxu paused and said, "It's just that the sinner didn't expect it. It was originally just a matter of
The sinner who wanted to make a living was actually attracted by the noble one day."
After saying that, Taoist Master Qingxu looked at King Xin with cold eyes and said word by word: "Your Highness King Xin, you came to Lingyun Temple in person that day and said that you can give me the worldly dignity and wealth after the event is completed.
He even promised his position as a teacher in our country, but he did what he did indeed commit a crime of rebellion."
Hearing this, the courtier's expression was a little strange, and he couldn't help but look at King Xin, secretly shocked him for being brave.
King Xin opened his mouth and subconsciously wanted to refute, but when he saw Taoist Master Qingxu take out something, his eyes widened instantly, he lowered his hands weakly, and looked at the letter falling into Emperor Jian'an's hands with a heart of silence.
.
"Your Majesty, this letter was written to the sinner by His Highness the King himself. Before, he had always sent people to pass the message directly, in order not to leave evidence of the crime, but the sinner kept a hand, so that this letter was obtained."
"What else do you have to say?" Emperor Jian'an roared angrily and stared at the pale-faced King Xin.
Huo Jingchen's face was calm, he glanced at Taoist Qingxu and signaled him to continue.
"After meeting that time, the sinner was a greedy person, so he was naturally very moved by the position of the national master. His Highness also promised that the sinner would be grand Taoism and suppress Buddhism in the future. This is the vision left over from the sinner master, and the sinner really couldn't refuse it.
”
"With His Highness Xin's intentional support and fuel, the sinner's reputation grew bigger and bigger, becoming the most famous Taoist priest in Dasheng, and also received the title of an immortal."
"It's just that this is His Highness King Xin's conspiracy. He deliberately created a reputation for me in order to make His Majesty notice me. Then His Highness King Xin found the Yin family and sent the Yin family's daughter, known for her beauty, into the palace.
He went, and when Yin Meiren was gradually favored, he took advantage of the situation and showed his face in front of His Majesty."
