Chapter 405: The numb Emperor Mingkang, this is impossible
"The soldiers from the camp on the outskirts of Beijing are coming!!"
In the champion's palace, Cai Luan quickly came to Jia Qi's side with a solemn expression.
When Jia Qi heard this, he didn't make a fuss. He had known about it for a long time.
"Who gave the order?"
Looking at the green vine outside the window that had begun to sprout green buds, he asked softly.
Cai Luan replied honestly: "It's the one from Taihe Palace!!"
Jia Qi's eyes paused, and then a flash of understanding flashed through his eyes. In the capital, besides Emperor Mingkang, Emperor Taikang, and those few nobles with real military power, who could mobilize the troops?
"What reason??"
"I heard that I want to vent my anger on Xichun!!"
When Jia Qi heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched. Emperor Taikang was old and good, but he was not senile. To vent his anger on Xichun? She was a little girl who was not related to him. Who would believe this reason?
"Exact words!!"
"Liyang is a member of the royal family. To touch her is to slap the royal family in the face. She also said that she would punish those nine tribes who kidnapped her!"
Hearing this, Jia Qi sighed softly. This old man was quite interesting. He was afraid that he would feel resentful and become separated from their royal family and then rebel.
“Should we just go with the flow??”
Cai Luan hesitated for a moment and asked with twinkling eyes.
Hearing this, Jia Qi couldn't help but turn around and give her a slap in the face. Ever since she knew her true identity, the rebellious thoughts in this girl's heart have never been extinguished, and she always encouraged herself to rebel.
"When the time comes, are you going to approve those mountains of memorials??"
"I won't!!"
"What a coincidence, I can't do it either!!"
"When the time comes when the Ministry of Revenue runs out of money and asks you for money, you go clean up the mess??"
"You...didn't you??"
"Don't you understand?? That is the entire Dakang, not a Liaodong town! Don't you also know what the world is like now and how much money can be spent to fill this hole??"
"Besides, even if I can find a way to fill that hole, why don't you just drink the northwest wind??"
“It’s not like I’ve never drank before!!”
"I think if you don't fight for three days, you'll have to go to bed!"
...
In the imperial study, Emperor Mingkang greeted Dai Quan with a gloomy face.
"Show off, Taihe Palace!!"
Dai Quan did not dare to hesitate, quickly prepared the dragon chase, and carried Emperor Mingkang to the Taihe Palace.
Emperor Mingkang had just sent out two imperial edicts, but nothing happened. The group of people in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing did not listen at all.
Only then did Emperor Mingkang realize that the group of people was not the group he had left behind, but the confidants intercepted by Emperor Taikang.
They did not recognize their own imperial edicts, only those of Emperor Taikang.
In desperation, he could only send out the Royal Guards to maintain order, and rushed towards the Taihe Palace without stopping.
This time the Supreme Emperor really went too far, sending troops to attack the five governor's mansions. If he hadn't received a secret report that something was wrong with his father's brain, he would have thought that the Supreme Emperor was crazy!
...
"Your Majesty, the Emperor is here!!"
Taihe Gong Xia Cheng pushed the door open and reported respectfully.
Emperor Taikang sat up from the couch, then slowly stretched his arms, moved his legs, and then said: "Let him come in! What a fool!!"
Xia Cheng lowered his head, half-squinted his eyes, and subconsciously chose to be temporarily deaf for the second sentence.
After saluting, he turned around and walked out.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty allows you to come in!!"
Xia Cheng looked respectful. In this palace, he did not dare to forget who was the master and who was the slave. This was the biggest trump card for him to live peacefully until now.
If a person cannot recognize his own position, he is not far from death.
Emperor Mingkang nodded and walked in with a gloomy face.
"Greetings to my father!! My father's dragon body is golden!!"
When Emperor Taikang heard this, he smiled coldly.
"Dragon Body Jinan??"
"I'm lucky that you didn't make me angry to death. I don't dare to be jealous!!"
Emperor Mingkang was stunned by Emperor Taikang's words, and his face became even more gloomy. He was no longer the unknown prince before, but the nominal master of this country and the emperor of the current dynasty.
“Not convinced??”
Emperor Taikang said with a hint of sarcasm when he heard that Emperor Mingkang didn't speak or even raised his head.
Emperor Mingkang still didn't speak. Silence was actually the best answer. He was indeed not convinced. If he was convinced, he would still have to come over.
"You sealed Liyang?"
"yes!!"
"She was almost kidnapped today, did you know?"
After hearing what Emperor Taikang said, Emperor Mingkang was silent for a moment and continued: "I know!!"
"I thought you didn't know!!"
Emperor Taikang didn't show any dignity to Emperor Mingkang, and opened his mouth to reveal his scars.
"Are you a pig brain??"
"You send Dai Quan to handle such a matter??"
"You don't know who Dai Quan represents outside, right? Do you think it's right for the emperor to get involved in such a thing?"
"You think you're not embarrassed enough? You have to slap yourself??"
"If you hadn't been the emperor now, I would have wanted to slap you twice myself!!"
The more Emperor Taikang talked about it, the angrier he became, and in the end he started to curse.
Emperor Mingkang forced himself to suppress the anger in his heart. The man in front of him was his father. Dakang promoted the rule of filial piety, and the other party still had great power. He could not fall out with him.
Then he tried to keep his tone as calm as possible and said: "That boy Jia Qi doesn't know how serious his actions are. Several third-rank officials in the imperial court have died in his hands!!"
Emperor Taikang smiled and shook his head, and said angrily: "Why did those people die? You don't know? Why didn't Jia Qi go to trouble Wang Xiren, why didn't he go to trouble Yan Libu? Why?
Not looking for trouble with Jiang Hu?? But looking for trouble with those people!!"
"Those people are all deserving of death, they are moths lying on Dakang's body. If we don't get rid of them, we will be the ones who die! Do you know!!"
"If you give me a broken five-door governor's mansion, I won't be surprised if you give it to me!! I don't understand. A champion, a Luo Jinfu, everyone knows who to choose. Don't say that Luo Jinfu is wrong, even if he is right, I
They will hand them over without hesitation!"
"Don't Jia Qi know that this person is your confidant? Do you think Jia Qi is a fool? He will beat Luo Jinfu to death??"
"You have driven Jia Qi into a panic. He rebelled in the capital. What will you do? Although Liaodong is hundreds of miles away from the capital, you have forgotten how fast the Snow Dragon Riding Army is?? Not even a day
Those invincible cavalry will come to the city!! Those are the personal soldiers brought out by Jia Qi!! You don’t think your imperial edict is useful!!!”
After hearing what Emperor Taikang said, Emperor Mingkang was speechless and didn't know how to answer. He just heard people from outside the city calling in. His first reaction was that Jia Qi had rebelled. At that time, his reaction could be described in detail.
Make a fool of yourself.
He is not prepared now, not prepared that Jia Qi will rebel.
"I might as well tell you that Duke Zhen and Duke Li have now become Jia Qi's people! He wants to rebel, what can you do to stop him?"
Seeing that Emperor Mingkang was still silent, Emperor Taikang dropped a bomb again. Emperor Mingkang's face almost turned into a scapegoat at this time.
Although he had speculated before, when it really became a fact, he still couldn't accept it.
"Father, since you know that Jia Qi has become a big deal, why don't you deal with it? He is not close to my father!"
After another moment of silence, Emperor Mingkang said in a hoarse voice.
When Emperor Taikang heard this, he couldn't help but raise his head and look at his son.
This ruthlessness is in line with the emperor's character, but he doesn't like it very much at this time.
"You should have checked Jia Qi's mother!!"
Then Emperor Taikang said quietly.
Emperor Mingkang was a little surprised. Why did Emperor Taikang talk about this topic at this time?
He didn't deny it, he just admitted it directly.
"researched!"
Emperor Taikang smiled coldly, judging from Emperor Kangdi's reaction, he seemed to have forgotten that person a long time ago! Maybe he never cared about it in the first place.
"Her name is Du Lanyan, and she worked in the Jiaofang Department in the capital before marrying into the Jia family. At that time, she did not use her real name, but her name was Yanran!!"
Emperor Mingkang raised his eyebrows. He had heard about this matter before. Jia Qi's biological mother was not a good person. She was a good member of the Jiaofang Sect. His biological father was just a declining branch of the Jia family.
“Don’t you think Jia Qi looks very kind??”
Emperor Taikang did not directly expose the things he had found out, but said something meaningful.
Emperor Mingkang's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he heard another meaning from Emperor Taikang's words.
Being kind is an extremely dangerous term for the royal family.
"In the thirty-seventh year of Taikang, when you and Prince Lian went to Jiaofangsi, who received you!!"
"I didn't go..."
In the middle of speaking, Emperor Mingkang suddenly stopped talking. It was not that he had never set foot in a place like Jiaofangsi. On the contrary, he had been there twice, and both times he was accompanied by his brother.
He looked at his father and said something in disbelief.
“What’s that person’s name??”
Emperor Taikang snorted coldly, "If I said that person's name is Yanran, would you believe it??"
When Emperor Mingkang heard this, his eyes could not help but widen with an expression of absolute impossibility, as if he could not believe this result.
"This is impossible!!"
Emperor Taikang spoke up again, "I found Po Wen, who delivered Jia Qi's baby, and she said she was born at full term, but it was only eight months before Du Lanyan married into Jia's family!!"
"Full term, eight months... Then who did Du Lanyan receive two months ago??"
"What do you think??"
...
After a while, Emperor Mingkang left the Taihe Palace in despair. Then an imperial edict was issued from the Taihe Palace. After receiving the order, the soldiers in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing quickly evacuated the battlefield, leaving only a pile of ruins.
Faced with this commotion, the palace was surprisingly quiet. Neither the emperor nor the supreme emperor spoke.
