Early the next morning, Liu Cheng got up and went to the morning court.
But as soon as he got up, he saw Shen Yunfan waiting for him at the door.
"Father, I will go to court with you today!"
Liu Cheng looked stunned, stared at Shen Yunfan for a long time, then nodded and said: "Okay, I'll go and clean up first."
After getting a basin of water, he went back to the house to wash his face, thinking to himself: "Did that kid find out the clues?"
But then he thought again, and he showed a confident smile.
In the capital, there is an intelligence organization called "Five Road Ghosts", and its founder is Liu Cheng!
Liu Cheng set a rule that seeing the carrier pigeon he raised was an emergency signal. After the members of the Five Road Ghost saw the carrier pigeon, they must immediately go to Chuzhou to deliver the news.
Therefore, the letter carried by the carrier pigeon is not important at all. Even if Shen Yunfan's people catch the pigeon, it will be of no use because the message has already been spread.
Now, my nephew King Beishan has set off from Chuzhou to come to Beijing, and everything is a foregone conclusion.
"So what if I find out? Shen Yunfan, you're dead." Liu Cheng sneered, his expression full of excitement that couldn't be hidden!
The previous King of Beishan, Liu Cheng's brother-in-law, was too powerful at first and threatened the imperial power. Therefore, the late emperor found an excuse to imprison several generals of the King of Beishan and disbanded some of his troops to balance the power.
A few days ago, when the new emperor ascended the throne, Liu Cheng used a trick to force Emperor Yongkang to grant amnesty to the world, just to release the generals of the Beishan King.
As for releasing Shen Yunfan, it was purely a coincidence.
And Liu Cheng has only one purpose in doing this, and that is to seek power and usurp the throne!
"It's my Liu family's turn to take the position of emperor!" Liu Cheng sneered again and again.
He has been planning this matter for a long time. As for Shen Yunfan, he is just like an ant, he can be easily crushed to death when he seizes power!
After washing his face, Liu Cheng opened the door and was startled by Shen Yunfan who was standing at the door.
"Fan'er, what are you doing standing here?"
"Father, what are you mumbling to yourself in there alone?" Shen Yunfan smiled.
"I'm going to familiarize myself with today's memorial. I have to report it to the emperor later!" Liu Cheng pretended to be calm, waved his hand and said, "Let's go quickly!"
Mao Shi, Taihe Hall of the Imperial Palace.
All the officials were present, and soon the emperor came too.
After saluting, Emperor Yongkang looked at Liu Cheng with tired eyes, or to be precise, at Shen Yunfan beside him.
"Why is the prince here?"
Everyone looked a little strange when they heard this. Liu Cheng was the first to bring his son to attend the morning court.
Xu Kailin, the Secretary of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and Cao Shan, the Minister of the Ministry of War, looked at each other and felt secretly happy.
If Liu Cheng did something like this, he would definitely be blamed.
Before Liu Cheng could speak, Shen Yunfan held up his hands and said: "I will inherit my adoptive father's official position in the future, and I will also have to deal with state affairs. So I want to stay with my adoptive father and learn!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed.
Xu Kailin said coldly: "When did the Southern Wei Dynasty have its turn to be handled by a young boy with yellow hair? Do you really think of yourself as a royal child?"
Others looked at Shen Yunfan with pitiful eyes, because what he said was simply courting death!
No matter how powerful Liu Cheng is, I'm afraid he won't be able to protect him.
"Your Majesty the Prime Minister, this adopted son is going to be in trouble!"
While everyone was gloating over the misfortune, Emperor Yongkang's words stunned them.
"Oh, Your Majesty is really hard-working, please be fine." Emperor Yongkang narrowed his eyes and didn't ask any more questions.
The officials around him were all shocked!
What happened to the emperor?
Are you not going to pursue this?
Has Liu Cheng's power grown to this extent?
They just can't understand it!
However, as the morning court began, they had no choice but to suppress their shock and each expressed their memorial.
Shen Yunfan followed and listened, thinking that the emperor was really a coward.
I'm afraid the officials didn't take him seriously at all, so the current memorials are very perfunctory, let alone dealing with any state affairs.
No wonder the Southern Wei Dynasty was so corrupt.
After talking about some routine matters, Emperor Yongkang suddenly stared at Liu Cheng and asked casually: "The King of Beishan is entering Beijing with his own soldiers. Prime Minister, as the uncle of King Beishan, do you know about this?"
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions changed.
"The King of Beishan has entered Beijing? No wonder His Majesty did not dare to punish the Prime Minister's adopted son just now!" Xu Kailin was surprised.
Shen Yunfan rolled his eyes and realized that Liu Cheng had called for help!
Liu Cheng cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I know."
"Let him go back. I have been in poor health recently and don't want to see him."
Liu Cheng took a step forward: "Your Majesty, that's why the King of Beishan is here! His Majesty is sick, and the King of Beishan has been worried about it. Some time ago, he found a miracle doctor in Chuzhou, so he brought him to the capital for treatment! "
Emperor Yongkang's expression suddenly changed, and he didn't say anything for a long time.
Liu Cheng went on to say: "These imperial doctors in the palace are not skilled in skills, and the King of Beishan should worry about Your Majesty. I think that the imperial doctors should be punished, and the King of Beishan should reward them!"
In the crowd, the chief physician heard this and his face was full of tears.
Seeing that Liu Cheng was going to punish him, he quickly knelt down and shouted: "Prime Minister, it's not that I'm not good at my skills. The main reason is that Your Majesty doesn't allow us to step into the Hall of Cultivation of Heart. We can't treat Your Majesty." !”
As early as when Emperor Yongkang was still the prince, his health had been poor.
But at that time, he refused treatment from all imperial doctors. Now the worsening of his condition was caused by Emperor Yongkang himself. These imperial doctors were really unjust!
"Oh?" Liu Cheng raised his eyebrows, as if he didn't know about this. "Your Majesty, is what the Chief Physician said true?"
Emperor Yongkang looked nervous and his back was wet with sweat!
The dignified emperor was forced to this point by his own ministers!
Seeing that the emperor was silent, Liu Cheng's expression darkened, and he waved his hand and said: "The bold Chief Physician dares to slander His Majesty, drag him out and behead him!!"
Two imperial guards came in and dragged the chief physician out.
"Your Majesty, this is unjust!! Your Majesty!!" the Chief Physician screamed heartbreakingly.
Emperor Yongkang's face was full of unbearability, and he gritted his teeth before shouting: "Prime Minister, what he said is true! It is true that I do not allow them to come!"
As soon as Liu Cheng raised his hand, the Chief Medical Officer was put down. For the rest of his life, he kowtowed repeatedly: "Kowtow to thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you to Your Majesty!"
Shen Yunfan's eyes dimmed, and there were some indescribable emotions in his eyes as he stared at Emperor Yongkang.
It seems that Emperor Yongkang is similar to his sister, the little princess, and has a very kind-hearted nature. Such people can be called good people among the people.
But as an emperor, he cannot be so soft-hearted. Otherwise, he will only be manipulated by others.
Liu Cheng stared at Emperor Yongkang with a smile, and asked slowly: "Since your Majesty is sick, why do you hide from the imperial doctor?"
