Three days later, the emperor began to go to the summer resort, and the imperial court also posted the emperor's list. The scientific examination that was originally planned to be prepared after autumn was moved forward to June. The imperial court was eager for talents, which gave scholars hope.
The Yan court had always valued martial arts over literature, so there were not many opportunities for scholars. Now that there was an opportunity to obtain merit and fame, students from all over the country began to come to Wanping City.
The emperor thought that he could relax and unwind when he came to the summer resort. However, when he arrived, he saw broken eaves and broken walls everywhere, and half of the palace had been blown up. He was completely confused.
"Mochuan, you didn't come here to fight in advance. I didn't ask you to demolish the house!"
This incident was indeed a bit embarrassing. Ning Wan had people use firearms when they were besieged by the Shuramen. Such a tragic situation was also caused by the firearms at that time, but it could not be repaired in three or two days.
"Brother, please don't blame me. It was my brother's negligence that allowed the thugs to commit murder here, thus destroying the palace!"
The emperor shook his head, but looked at Ning Wan behind Helian Mochuan and said: "If it were not the regent princess who rescued the Lei family army, I will definitely hold him accountable for this matter! Mochuan, you can't just spoil this woman, she will
He’s used to making mistakes!”
Ning Wan lowered her head and did not dare to speak. This was because she was wrong in the first place. She should not have used firearms to bombard the palace. It was just the situation at that time. If she did not do this, those people from the Shura Sect would be really difficult to deal with.
!
With that said, the emperor walked away looking very angry.
Concubine Chen and several concubines were all sitting on the carriage, watching this scene from a distance, but their faces became increasingly gloomy.
"The eldest son of the Xie family is really engaged to Leng Li?"
After Concubine Chen finished speaking, the nanny next to her replied: "Exactly, for that Leng Li, the Regent specially asked for an imperial edict to grant a marriage. It can be seen that the Regent is completely tied to the Xie family! Today's
The Xie family is no longer what it was more than ten years ago. Several of the sons hold important positions, and they are all generals guarding the border. Your Majesty, you should not be underestimated!"
Of course Concubine Chen knew that when He Lianhong went to the northwest, he relied on Xie Jiajun to support him. If Xie Jiajun could be used for her...
Concubine Chen narrowed her eyes and lowered the curtain of the carriage.
"Find someone to ruin this marriage. Leng Li is just a slave's daughter, how can she marry into the general's palace? With such a status, the most I can do is be a concubine! I want to provoke discord between the regent and the Xie family.
, this is the best opportunity!”
"What the empress means is..."
"Kill that Xie Liangchen and blame that girl Leng Li for this matter. Although Xie Liangchen is embarrassed, at least he is the eldest son and grandson of the Xie family. If he dies in the hands of Leng Li, the Xie family will definitely fight with the regent.
If the king turns against her, even Ning Wan may be involved in this matter. I want to see if she will choose the Xie family or a man!"
The carriage entered the Summer Resort, where the concubines lived. The place where Concubine Chen lived was the closest to the emperor's palace.
Over the years, the emperor has been doting on her, but he has never mentioned her status. She is not even a concubine. People in the palace find it strange, and some people test the emperor, but the emperor's rhetoric is, "Concubine Chen"
With a low status, being a concubine is already the highest status.
"I already know about the Shura Sect. Can it be dealt with in Wanping City?" The emperor also had a headache about this Shura Sect. He didn't know when such a sect appeared, and it actually wanted to go against the imperial court?
What made him most angry was that Helianqi turned out to be the leader of the Shura Sect. When he learned the news, the emperor was almost furious to death.
"The city has been cleared, and the Lei Family Army has disposed of the royal hunting ground. No one from the Shura Sect will appear again! However, my brother has been tracking these people for a long time. They are extremely concealed. It is very difficult to find any clues!
"
The emperor nodded, his eyes became profound, he raised his head and took out a note from a sandalwood box on the desk and gave it to Helian Mochuan.
"Look at this and see if it's different from what you found!"
Helian Mochuan took it and took a look, his face changed slightly.
"Brother Huang has discovered the Shura Sect a long time ago?"
The emperor stood with his hands behind his back, sighed, and said: "After the death of the prince and brother, someone found me, promised me the throne, and asked me to help them do things. At that time, they were not called Shuramen!"
Helian Mochuan raised his head and looked at the emperor with a shocked face, and then heard the emperor continue: "When I promised them, I was not really doing it for the throne. It was my father's intention to erase the traces of this incident!
My father became seriously ill because of the death of the prince and brother. He knew that he didn't have much time left, so he made me swear that if he ascended the throne and became emperor, he would never harm his siblings in this life. Mo Chuan, if you were me, what would you do?"
This question is difficult to answer. Helian Mochuan was only eight years old at the time. How could he know this? But if it were put now, for the sake of the stability of the Yan court, he might make the same choice as the emperor.
"What the emperor means is that the Shura Sect was not created by our people from Dayan. Does the emperor know the origin of the Shura Sect?"
