Chapter 280: I feel more at ease
Chapter 280 I feel more at ease
"His Royal Highness, please tell me——"
"After all, don't always call me this strange name..." Princess Jingrong muttered a little, and then said again: "Please tell General Xu for me. There is no eye on the battlefield. He will always want You must be careful when you tell him to go out to fight."
Is reminding her?
Xu Mingyi subconsciously thought about it, and then heard Princess Jingrong say: "It's not just me, but my father doesn't want General Xu to be injured. We all want General Xu to be safe."
"Yes, thank you girl for your concern, and I will tell my grandfather at home." Xu Mingyi changed her name, and she seemed to understand something vaguely when she met the eldest princess.
In the memory of the princess, the emperor didn’t want her grandfather to have an accident, did he?
And this memory may not be before the age of six or seven...
"Okay, I know you are grown up and can talk." The host of Yufeng County patted the princess on the head appreciatively.
The eldest princess hummed at her, as if she intended to appear to be more sensible, blessed Xu Mingyi's body, and said: "Miss Xu, go slowly."
Xu Mingyi, who received the ceremony for no reason, couldn't help but feel a little complicated.
I didn’t know whether the eldest princess’s illness was true or not, but now I’ve determined that it is false. Looking at the eldest princess's appearance, I can’t help but feel very admired—I can perform so seamlessly that even my loved ones would not even notice. If she is called second in such acting skills, I am afraid no one can be called first.
But I can't help but sigh in my heart-who was not forced out? Look at what the dog emperor has forced people into.
Shi Shi sent Xu Mingyi's master and servant out of the princess mansion.
There is no longer a car in the palace outside the house.
Emperor Qingming never returned to the palace directly.
In Beizhen Fusi, the town Fusi Liu Shizheng summoned his subordinates to confess the errands, and suddenly heard that the imperial driver came here, hurriedly dropped the official documents in his hand, and immediately greeted him.
But...how could your majesty come here in person?
Could there be some big case? !
Liu Shi was nervous, and invited Qingming Emperor, who was obviously unwilling to attract attention, into the outer hall.
"Your Majesty condescended to come here, but I don't know what's important?" Liu Shi asked respectfully and cautiously from the side.
"Someone asks Xia Shoufu to come here to see me." Qingming Emperor ordered: "You don't have to alarm other people."
"Yes, the Weichen takes the lead."
Liu Shi suppressed the doubts in his heart, retired and confessed the matter to a henchman.
Xia Tingzhen came quickly.
As soon as he arrived in the hall to give a lecture, all the people in the hall retreated. The door of the hall was closed tightly from the outside, and his vision became much darker for a while.
Xia Tingzhen self-consciously noticed something strange.
It is totally strange that the emperor came here in person.
But it was the first assistant of the court, and his face was still calm, and he only asked: "Why did your majesty come out of the palace?"
"Jing Rong was frightened and made a lot of noise, so I went out of the palace to see her." Emperor Qingming said with a smile, which contained irony but also contradictory joy: "Ke but Unexpectedly, there would be unexpected gains—"
While speaking, he slowly took out something from his sleeve and placed it on the small table aside: "Xia Aiqing might as well help me to see if this thing is true or not."
Xia Tingzhen stepped forward and picked up the things, slowly unfolding in front of her eyes.
In the dimly-lit hall, the line of writing above is still clearly visible...
Xia Tingzhen’s chest is like the sound of beating a drum, and the expression in her eyes that has always been condensed has changed again and again-the first emperor... actually left a legacy!
He didn’t guess wrong as expected!
And this seemingly not a heavy legacy in the hand, if once born, it will cause chaos in the four parties...!
"This thing...Have you found it from the princess's mansion?" Xia Tingzhen asked in a low voice.
"Yes, it's a respectful face and unconsciousness, which led me to the place where this thing was hidden."
Xia Tingzhen frowned very quickly: "Does your majesty think this is too coincidental?"
"That's why Xia Aiqing was able to see if it was true or not--"
If Jingrong really dared to pretend to be crazy and behave stupidly, then he will leave her in no matter what...
Xia Tingzhen's eyes returned to the silk silk.
I just saw this thing at first, and my heart was shaken, so I couldn’t say how to look closely.
Looking at it carefully, after a while, he said truthfully: "In Yichen's opinion, it is indeed the first emperor's handwriting that is correct...There is no trace of fraud."
Xianhuang's background is ordinary, and his calligraphy skills are mediocre, even with his guidance, so he will never mistake it.
"That seems to be true." Emperor Qingming laughed and preached in a ridiculous tone: "Look at what my father's heart looks like? What's good is given to the second brother. Even in the end, I actually left such a hand behind my back. If it weren't for my luck, I don't know how I will end up."
Xia Tingzhen was silent for a moment, and said: "Your Majesty is the man of heaven, and luck is also heaven."
Qingming Emperor smiled and stood up.
"Let’s go, follow me to see someone—whether this thing was given to Jingrong by the emperor, I still need to check carefully one or two more."
Such things, he can't help but be cautious.
Xia Tingzhen had already guessed which person he was going to meet, and after answering, she looked down and rolled up the silk in her hand.
The most frightening place in the capital is the prison of Fusi in Beizhen.
This is a place where the sun cannot shine all the year round, but anyone who enters here is always looking forward to leaving this magic cave-even if they are destined to leave only as dead people.
Emperor Qingming and Xia Tingzhen stopped outside a cell.
Their shoes are as clean as new, and they look so out of place when they step on the smelly floor tiles that can never be washed away with blood.
Not to mention the old people who shrank into a ball in the corner of the cell, and at first glance they can’t even call them humans——
The cold cell door was pushed open, and Emperor Qingming walked in.
"Dong Qi, I have come to see you."
The man with stray gray hair raised his head in a daze, only one eye on the old sagging face was still intact to see.
Seeing the person in front of him, that cloudy eye trembled.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
He was crouched and had lost an arm. He crawled towards Emperor Qingming, clutching the corner of Emperor Qingming's robe tightly with one hand, and begged: "Please let the old slave go out. The old slave really didn't say a word. There is no lie, and there is no concealment... When your Majesty was still a prince, he was punished by the emperor to kneel outside the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart, or the old slave begged the emperor for love... Did your Majesty forget..."
The voice was choked and hoarse, but it was still a bit shrill.
He was originally a great **** by the emperor's side, and he was also famous in front of others. After the death of the emperor, he was given a hundred taels of gold and a good land house by Emperor Qingming. The illness "passed away".
"Dong Qi, I want to believe you too, look at you, I have really suffered here for so many years..."
Emperor Qingming sighed with pity, and didn't kick the person away. He only sighed: "Under such torture, I thought, there should be nothing I can't ask--but I still underestimate you. I have to say, my father, his eyesight is not bad."
"Your Majesty... how dare the old slave lie to your Majesty! The first emperor's biography is located in the eldest son. This is a system of etiquette and law. Why should your Majesty insist on things that you don't have, and listen to others' slanders and worry about yourself!"
"What a tradition of etiquette...but why is the father reluctant to follow it?" Emperor Qingming said ironically: "Or, this edict was forged by others at all. Did I blame the father?"
"Your Majesty said...what?" The old **** looked up in a daze.
"There is Lao Qigong who will take a good look for me, is this thing true or not?"
Emperor Qingming threw the silk silk under his feet, and his tone was still casual and relaxed: "Before the emperor came, only Qi Gong was waiting in the sleeping hall. If you want to simulate a will, I am afraid that Qi Gong will serve the pen and ink-this thing is true. Qi Gong should be clear about the true and false."
The old **** tremblingly loosened his hand holding the emperor's robe, and pulled the silk aside to look.
After reading the book above, he trembled uncontrollably until he saw a nail-sized ink stain at the lower left corner, and tears suddenly rolled from his flushed eye sockets.
Sure enough, this is the legacy...
Fortunately, this legacy...
He was worried that he would not be able to survive this day--
The Emperor Xian's confession, he...today... finally can fulfill it to the end!
The old **** grasped the edge of the silk, and suddenly let out a harsh and sad laugh.
Qingming Emperor squinted his eyes slightly and asked, "What? Could it be that the edict that I recovered from the Lord Zhenguo was a fake?"
"Zhen Guo Gong......?"
The old **** straightened up with difficulty, took the will, and stood up tremblingly. He changed his humble pleading, and said with contempt: "Since your majesty has got it, how can you not know that this matter is the same as the town? The public has nothing to do... But your Majesty is still trying to test, how can he be the king of a country if he is so stupid and suspicious, unable to distinguish his loyalty! How can the emperor be born with a pair of insights, and how can he truly trust the country with peace of mind! Kill, You can kill it by mistake! Let’s see how many days the Daqing mountains and rivers can be stable again!"
He gradually became excited, and his saliva even splashed on Emperor Qingming’s face.
Emperor Qingming has no waves on his face, but he has secretly clenched his back teeth.
This person’s previous cowardly begging for mercy...Sure enough, he was doing a show!
"Your Majesty!"
The old **** staggered back two steps, looked at the top of his head in a daze, and said with tears: "...The old slave has persuaded you before. The princess's temperament is vacillating, and her mind is not firm or wise. what!"
Then, he suddenly bowed his head, looked at the edict in his hand, and hugged the edict in front of him in a hurry. The old and frail person didn't know where his strength came from, and suddenly he was going to rush out of the cell like crazy.
said in a certain way: "Your Majesty's last will not be buried...Never bury it!"
Seeing that he was about to rush out of the cell, Xia Tingzhen raised his hand.
The guard guarding outside the cell knowingly, drew a knife and stepped forward.
The long knife pierced into the old and thin body, as easily as through a layer of window paper.
The old eunuch's mouth began to overflow with blood, and his body gradually dropped weakly, but the thin hand still held the last edict tightly.
Qingming Emperor just turned around.
He walked to the side of the old **** and stretched out his hand to retrieve the blood-stained edict.
The opponent is almost breathless, but the strength to hold the will is still great, and it took him a lot of effort to withdraw the things.
Qingming Emperor glanced at the deadly old eunuch, and said with a smile: "Dong Qi, I should thank you very much. It's just that I don't thank you for pleading for me in the past. It's - I am now more at ease."
Outside the cell, beside the old table and stool where several jailers rested, there was a brazier for heating.
The bright yellow silk was thrown into the brazier, and it was quickly ignited and swallowed.
Seeing the last touch of bright color turned into ashes, Qingming Emperor's eyes overflowed with a faint smile of satisfaction.
As long as this last edict disappears completely, nothing else can be feared.
Even if Jingrong can one day heal and remember this edict, or someone else has known about the existence of this edict——
But, what does it matter?
Will they choose to speak out?
If you have this courage, it will save trouble.
——The empty-mouthed rumors want to stir up the storm. It is really unpredictable. The heart of Daqing is clearly revealed. Such chaotic officials and thieves should be punishable.
He took Xia Tingzhen and turned and left the cell.
Outside the prison, the sun is blazing warmly.
Emperor Qingming raised his head and glanced at the dazzling sun.
"Xia Aiqing——"
"Weichen is here."
"You said... my second brother, did he know that there is this legacy?"
"According to the events of the year, under His Majesty's perfect plan, His Royal Highness Yan Wang should have no chance to know."
"Yes, I don't think he knows." Emperor Qingming smiled and said, "If he knew that this edict was burned by me today, how would he feel?"
The last edict has disappeared, and all the words are justified, and he can only belong to him from beginning to end.
As for whether someone would rather not be a righteous person, and fight with him without knowing it—he wouldn’t let anyone have this opportunity...
A cloud floating from nowhere, blocking the golden sunlight, and the shadows spread quickly between the sky and the earth.
After a while, the dimness slowly dissipated.
……
Three days later, it rained heavily in Beijing.
There was nothing to do on rainy days, no arrow training, and it was inconvenient to go out. Xu Mingyi took the book and sat in a daze at the window.
As for why I still have to hold a book in a daze, it's nothing more than because I look at the book and my mind drifts away.
She is thinking of a person.
——The owner of the fat bird who is squatting in the chair beside her, who is dozing off.
"Tianmu, what do you say he is doing at this time?"
Xu Mingyi stretched out his hand to touch the dozing bird, and asked with a sigh.
Big Bird didn't even move his eyelids.
Really sound asleep?
Xu Mingyi shook its wings, but Big Bird still did not respond.
Doesn’t it all say that pets are intimate little padded jackets of the owner, can they communicate with the owner’s heart?
At this moment, Ah Zhu walked in from outside.
"Girl, A Li brought some dim sum and beef jerky, saying that Miss Cai made it by herself."
As soon as the words fell, the big bird in the chair opened his eyes and shook his head vigorously.
Seeing this scene, Xu Mingyi suddenly popped out two voices in his mind-can the bird pretending to be deaf and dumb still want it?
and-both say that childhood without being beaten is incomplete. Should she give her children a complete childhood?
Thank you for your monthly pass and rewards.
