Chapter 641: Your majesty
Chapter 641 Your Majesty the Minister Gang
A rolled up note was stuffed in the bamboo tube, and Xu Mingyi unfolded it, only to see Xiaoqi's handwriting.
Seeing the content above, I can’t help feeling warm in my heart.
It was originally Mr. Mo and Xiaoqi who invited her and Tianmu to the Xuesheng Teahouse to spend New Year’s Eve together in the evening to have a New Year’s Eve dinner, and they also said that they prepared a lot of her favorite dishes.
This is to know that she is alone in Beijing, so she may fall silent in her heart.
And perhaps Wu Chao’s instruction is in it.
Xu Mingyi curled his mouth slightly.
It was a good intention, and she accepted it, but she couldn’t go.
The people from the town’s government office have been waiting for a long time to hide in the secret road. The food and water they prepared earlier have long been gone. It is the other entrance of Xiaoqi from the secret road—an inconspicuous place outside Qingyunfang. In the people’s yard, someone secretly sent food supplies down.
Although this was arranged before leaving Beijing, but because of the hidden guards in the Xuesheng Teahouse these days, she did not dare to relax at all. Xiao Qi had already taken several adventures for this.
If she goes to the Xuesheng Teahouse tonight, if someone catches her attention, it will be the people in the teahouse and the doctor Qiao who hides in the teahouse.
Even though this is only the worst possible, but at such a juncture, it is best to be cautious.
The troubles and dangers that can be avoided, she never cherishes the idea of fluke to try.
For her, it would be the best year to spend it peacefully.
Xu Mingyi did not hesitate, wrote a short reply, put it in the bamboo tube, and retied it to the Tianmu.
"Run again." She patted the bird's wings and said: "When you fly there, you can also have lunch. You don't have to come back in the evening. If you go, you will have two more meals. "
This word undoubtedly touched the heart of the big bird. It turned around with bright eyes, shook its body, and ran out with a patter under its feet.
The snow fell yesterday, and there was a thick layer of treetops on the eaves.
At night, dense stars appeared in the sky. There is no moon on New Year's Eve, but there are lights all around, and under the snow, there seems to be a moon in the world.
Xu Mingyi sat on the stone steps of the small courtyard, staring at the stars in a daze.
There are faint sounds of children chasing and laughing, singing New Year’s rhymes in their mouths, about walking around the streets with lanterns.
No matter how difficult the life is, the year is still to pass.
However, compared to previous years, this New Year’s Eve in Beijing this year is undoubtedly the most deserted one in her impression.
At this hour in previous years, the long streets in the city leading to the gate must be unmovable-the emperor wants to ascend the tower to celebrate the people, the emperor stands on the tower, and the fireworks burst out behind him.
And this year obviously no such process.
The emperor used to climb the towering tower, but he might not have the strength to climb it.
Moreover, the people may not be willing to meet the emperor.
Xu Mingyi looked at the starry sky, thinking about each other.
She rethinked the plan for the coming year, and then estimated how far the arrangements were in each place.
Then I thought of Linyuan City - at this time, Linyuan City must be very lively, right?
Father, mother, are they thinking about themselves?
After all, every holiday season, I would like to kiss each other.
She is not there, facing a table for New Year’s Eve dinner, everyone is afraid that they will lose a little appetite.
There is still time, should he cry secretly, right?
Akui and Azhu are not to mention, these two girls must be worried about her every day.
Thinking about this, the girl sitting on the stone steps with her cheek sighed slightly.
Who makes everyone inseparable from her.
and Wu Chao——
I don’t know where he is at this time?
But I want to be busy arranging everything, it must be impossible to sit here like her, sitting here in a daze, thinking about him in a daze.
Yes, she missed Wu Chao.
Since he left Linyuan, many big and small things have happened, especially on him. She thought, he should also need her.
Fortunately, it won’t be long before I can meet again.
Before meeting, she and him should take care of themselves and do everything they should do so that they can live up to the time of separation.
Although she can’t meet each other, she can still see things and people, oh, no, she sees birds and people——
Xu Mingyi turned his head slightly and rubbed the bald head of Big Bird who was sitting next to her.
She originally confessed that the Third Eye did not have to come back, but it did.
It was like knowing that it was New Year's Eve. She sat beside her obediently, watching her eyelids become so heavy that she couldn't open it several times, and after shaking her head a little sober, she insisted on sitting here with her.
This time when she came to the capital, she didn't intend to bring it. After all, this is a life of happiness, and it is winter, fearing that it will suffer.
It was more than ten miles out of Linyuan City, but the driver who drove the car found that there was still a squatting on the roof...
After entering the city, it really helped her a lot, and the work of delivering letters to and from Xuesheng Tea House was even more so.
Seeing that it was really sleepy, the look of the eyelids lifted and closed was really funny, Xu Mingyi picked up the big bird, folded back into the room.
At this time, there was a sound of firecrackers all around.
The time has come, and the new year has begun.
The old butler personally brought her a bowl of flat food, saying that it was the master’s confession.
She thanked again and again.
The flat food just out of the pan is brought from the food box. Once the food box is opened, a hot aroma will come out.
Xu Mingyi picked one up and took a bite, only to feel that the warm smoke of fireworks that soothed the spleen, stomach and organs dispelled the winter cold at this moment.
She sits at the table, holding a pair of chopsticks in her hands, and turns her face to look out the window.
A cluster of bright fireworks bloomed in her pupils.
There is a clear and vigorous Brahma sound from the bell in the nearby temple, as if it is intended to clear the noise and dirt between the world and the earth and the suffering of sentient beings.
At this moment, Xu Mingyi suddenly raised infinite hope.
The new year has come.
Long winter will pass soon.
Haruhi is already on the way.
……
At the end of the first month, a long-lost news came from Beijing.
At the time when King Yan was seriously ill, the court dispatched one hundred thousand soldiers and horses to expel King Yan’s army from the boundary of Cangzhou——
Not only took Cangzhou back, but also completely defeated the Yan Wang army, which had caused civil strife, and retreated three hundred miles away from Cangzhou. Another group of soldiers and horses guarded the Yan Wang who did not know his life and turned to the north.
At this point, the Yan Wang army, which has been invincible all the way, has collapsed and its morale has been greatly reduced.
The news undoubtedly encouraged the government and the opposition.
The doubt about King Yan's serious illness was almost completely eliminated.
The defeat of the Yan army has made all the forces messed up.
Taking this opportunity, the imperial court recovered more than ten counties and towns occupied by the rebellious army and refugees, and the situation was already turning over.
Ning Yang and Lin Yuan, they never saw any movement. They seemed to be completely confused because of King Yan’s accident, and they didn’t know where to go.
And a few days ago, the Jishiwei who was secretly guarding outside Linyuan City intercepted a secret letter. It was a letter sent by Lord Zhen Guo secretly to the King of Ningyang. Judging from the content of the letter, Because of their interests, the two have already shown signs of collapse.
All kinds of news and secret gains, undoubtedly gradually dispelled the doubts of the court.
On this day, Emperor Qingming had just stopped taking the medicine and was listening to the details of the recent events.
Qing Ming Emperor is happy for this dragon face.
He knew that he couldn’t possibly lose——
If he can win once, he can win a second time!
Although this reversal is a bit more lucky, doesn’t this just prove that he is the Daqing monarch to whom the fate belongs?
This thought seemed to reinject strength into his corrupt and dry body, making him more eager and enthusiastic.
"Now that the situation is stable, I can no longer stay in this heart-raising hall all day long at the mercy of others!"
He must take back the seal of the emperor and the political power as soon as possible, otherwise he can only watch the crown prince and the insurgents take everything from him...The external troubles have been eliminated, now it is time to deal with internal worries!
And the first thing he had to do was to abolish the prince!
This seemingly stupid beast dared to covet his throne and was placed under house arrest... He shouldn't have kept this beast at the beginning!
But now he has no Yuxi, and his words are completely weightless. Everything is under the control of the cabinet rebels. If he wants to abolish the prince, he must first leave here and reappear in front of the hundred officials before the prince can be with him. The guilt of the cabinet official was announced to the public!
Li Ji told him that now those officials outside are all deceived by the prince, only when he is very sick and unable to manage—he can only get rid of the lies by getting out of here!
Yes, all lies...
As long as he is still the king of a country, he can always get people to find a good doctor to treat him, and he will always get better.
Rather than as it is now, life and death are in the hands of others, who knows whether the so-called genius doctors that the prince finds for him are here to kill him—just like the “genius doctors” he found from the folks for his father!
So, if he continues to stay in this sleeping hall, there is only one dead end waiting for him!
Feeling the emperor's eagerness and the panic caused by this eagerness, Ming Xiaozhi sneered in his heart.
Yesterday, the other party went crazy and fell the medicine bowl, saying that his illness had not been cured for a long time. Someone must have done tricks in the medicine and wanted to poison him to death.
Because you have done such an evil, do you fear that the same fate will be punished on yourself?
However, it’s okay to be crazy now.
The more crazy you are, the more you will panic.
"Caritas Qing, you have to help me... now only you can help me! You immediately send me a verbal message to tell the officials that I will reopen the early court, tomorrow!"
He didn't mention the idea of abolishing the prince. Even though he "trusted" it at this time, he still retains a vigilance. He must not say it until the matter is not done, otherwise it will only increase obstacles.
He is going to abolish the unfilial and unfaithful beast in one fell swoop!
Ming Xiaozhi got up and saluted: "Yes, the minister abides by the edict."
However, that night, the effect was futile.
Master Yushi angrily came to the Hall of Yangxin.
"...As soon as the ministers spread the word that your majesty is going to make an early morning tomorrow, they were disturbed by the cabinet members. They told the ministers that your majesty was too ill to get up. This is just talking nonsense while he is sick. Really-now that the prince's prime minister is responsible for all political affairs, your majesty only needs to rest assured to recover from illness!"
Emperor Qingming was furious, trembling with anger.
"Such wolf ambition... is already blatant!"
Sure enough, he made up his mind and refused to ask him to show up again!
Is he still suspicious?
Is it because he wronged this group of "loyal ministers" who served the country and the people and the overall situation!
"Are they really supposed to be going to die? If I really think that I’m on the side of the prince, I have nothing to do with them!"
Qingming Emperor's sunken eyes were scarlet, and he overturned the small few with memorials in front of him.
These memorials are all written by Mingxiao, and they are recent events, and they are all true.
Being faithful, naturally there can be no fraud.
But even if what he played was true, as long as he "reminded" the emperor's ears, it would not be difficult to achieve his goal. This is the subtlety of language.
In other words, the emperor’s own suspicions and fears, even if he didn’t need to say anything, already regarded the crown prince and cabinet officials as deadly enemies.
At this time, the memorial book was thrown down to the bed, and the overturned little couple broke a corner of the bed net, and hit the tall stool beside the bed, and even the enamel painted golden tea lamp on it was shattered to pieces. .
The little **** who was guarding in the hall was silent, and did not dare to lift his head, let alone clean up immediately.
Ming Xiaozhi suppressed the anger, and said: "Your majesty, calm down, the minister came on the way, but thought of another feasible way, just--"
Emperor Qingming was almost breathing hard with anger. Li Ji was beside him stroking his back. The sick emperor was panting, his dry and thin body swaying in the wind like broken old window paper.
After hearing the words, he still turned his head and fixedly looked at Ming Xiaozhi: "If Caritas has a countermeasure, just say it!"
Mingxiao’s Su Rong said: "The death of the emperor is approaching, and it has been worthy of good news recently. The minister proposed that your majesty should lead the ministers to go to the Lingshan imperial mausoleum to worship the ancestors——"
"Memorial to the ancestors..."
For ancestor worship, officials of Grade 3 and above must accompany it. If the prince can be publicly abolished in front of the ancestors of the Xie family, it is indeed a good time!
Emperor Qingming had repeated eyes, gritted his teeth and said: "But they will definitely obstruct in every possible way..."
"No, they have no reason to obstruct!" Mingxiao's tone was cold and solemn, and loudly: "Daqing governs the country with benevolence and filial piety. Over the years, the emperor's death, and the emperor's personal worship is an ancestral system. There has been no exception for the previous eighteen years-who dares If the same ancestor made it right, that would be wrong! You should be punished with the crime of rebellion!"
His decisive tone called Emperor Qingming to raise hope in his heart.
Yes, this is different from the opening of the early dynasty. It can still be used as an excuse for his need to rest... The sacrifice to the ancestor is the top priority, and those who are reasonable and reasonable will not dare to stop him!
At this time, Ming Xiaozhi's somewhat worried voice sounded: "It's just that the minister is a little worried about your majesty's body. Lingshan still has some roads, and the minister is afraid of your majesty..."
"It's only three hundred miles away, and I can still hold it." Qingming Emperor said in a firm tone: "Looking at the precedents of moving the capital in the previous dynasty, the ancestral tomb is thousands of miles away, and there are many emperors who still insist on going to worship——"
He said, looking at Ming Xiaozhi, his voice was weak and dumb, but his eyes were inevitably cold: "Even if I take my fate shortly, then I should go to the first emperor’s mausoleum to worship, and see my father for the last time. I took it, but what I wanted in my heart, this is what I asked for...So, can they stop me any more?"
Mingxiao looked down, and said knowingly: "Chen, I know what to do."
"As long as Caritas will do this for me, I will promote Aiqing to the cabinet afterwards and take care of our military affairs..."
Mingxiu raised his hand and bowed, his posture was sincere and a sense of integrity: "The loyalty to the emperor, the division of the emperor’s worries, the elimination of the unethical winds of the ruling and the ancestors, the majesty of the ancestors and the rituals--all belong to the ministers. I dare not take credit for my duty. But please rest assured, your majesty will do your best and will live up to your majesty's trust!"
Qingming Emperor slowly nodded: "Okay...I'm just waiting for the good news from Aiqing."
Ming Xiaozhi was too obedient to the rules, and even confronted him several times. He endured his desires for several episodes, because he knew that such a person was needed in the court...and fortunately there is such a person, Otherwise, he was afraid that no one would be available at this time.
He must go to Lingshan to worship the ancestors...
This is his last chance!
……
Goodnight everybody.
