Chapter 162：

After dividing the troops with Pingyuanhou and the third princes, Zhang Yunming, Shen Zhuo, Shenxiang and Song Fuzi marched north with most of the volunteers, and met the remnants of the Northern Rong left by He Duo outside the valley. These northern soldiers were wounded, and lived by eating dead horse meat. They had no fighting power at all. The volunteers led by Zhang Yunming had strong bows and crossbows. They occupied the advantage of weapons and easily won. The northern soldiers quickly won. He surrendered and captured tens of thousands of people. Both Zhang Yunming and Shen Zhuo felt that the prisoners should not be killed, as that would arouse people's desperate heart, so they decided to **** them back to Beijing. Anyway, the wounded soldiers, if they died on the road, at least not counted as being killed.

Zhang Yunming wanted to find Zhang Yunzheng as soon as possible and take him back to Beijing, so he agreed with Shen Zhuo that he and Master Song led some of the volunteers to **** the prisoners back to the capital, and Shen Zhuo led the others to continue north.

Before Zhang Yunming went to the mountain to find Zhang Yunzheng, Zhang Yunzheng led the people out of the mountain. They waited until the smoke in the valley cleared, walked through the valley full of dead bodies, and met with the volunteers outside the valley. When people on both sides saw it, they all cheered. Zhang Yunming heard the report and ran in the direction of cheers. Zhang Yunzheng saw Zhang Yunming coming from a distance. It was difficult to hide a trace of arrogance on his face. He half lifted his chin and asked Zhang Yunming particularly indifferently. Waved his hand.

Zhang Yunming came to Zhang Yunzheng and looked up and down Zhang Yunzheng. Seeing that Zhang Yunzheng was well and uninjured, his heart became hot, and he suppressed it hard. Only then did he stop his urge to rush to hold Zhang Yunzheng's shoulders, and he confronted Zhang Yunzheng falsely. He punched: "Look at you beautiful! Do you know how old you are"

Zhang Yunzheng gently pushed Zhang Yunming's arm away, stared at Zhang Yunming, and said hoarsely: "I want to fight!"

Zhang Yunming smiled: "Yes! I want to beat you up!"

Zhang Yunzheng rolled his eyes: "Who wants to care about you!"

Zhang Yunming finds it weird--this is what I used to despise Zhang Yunzheng, how come he is back now and he asked: "What's wrong with your voice?"

Zhang Yunzheng coughed vigorously and said, "It's okay, it's smoked. Is there a lot of people in Bei Rong in the past?"

Zhang Yunming shook his head: "Not many, half of the crossbows are useless. It's really a poisonous smoke array."

Zhang Yunzheng cut: "What is "poison" is cheap and good!" Zhang Yunming has to roll his eyes - why Zhang Yunzheng protects that little poison woman like this. Although Miss Shen Er has amazing schemes, she is a woman who dares to kill so many people. Isn’t it dangerous to sleep by your side? Zhang Yunming wants to break them up again... Of course, Zhang Yunzheng obviously has no such intentions. He asked: "Are you going to return to Beijing right away? I want to go back." I want to see Miss Shen Er as soon as possible.

Zhang Yunming naturally wouldn't let Zhang Yunzheng go by himself. He looked around: "I'll be with you. There is nothing more to do here. The brothers and sisters of the Shen family are going north to the border. We will press the prisoners back."

Zhang Yunzheng shook his head and said, "I won't go with you anymore. How slow is it to walk under the prisoner!"

Zhang Yunming exaggeratedly sighed: "Then I will go back with you first, and let others walk slowly under the captives." After the life and death mark, he should be pampered with this younger brother.

Zhang Yunzheng said for granted: "Then let's go tomorrow!" He was not modest at all!

Behind Zhang Yunzheng, the rose came to salute, and Magnolia and Zhang Ding, who came with Zhang Yunming to find Zhang Yunzheng, also smiled and rushed forward. The three of them hugged each other and shouted, "Great! Great!" "We're missing Dujuan." Now!" "Go back and tell him what we did, he must be mad!" "Hahaha, for sure! It's so fun!"...

Zhang Yunming and Zhang Yunzheng found Shen Zhuo on the battlefield. The three of them talked and laughed a few times. Zhang Yunming said their plans, and Shen Zhuo naturally agreed. The next day, they said goodbye to each other. Zhang Yunming and Zhang Yunzheng took Magnolia Rose, Zhang Ding, and more than 20 soldiers, and went to chase Ping Yuan Hou on horseback. After a few days, Master Song led the soldiers to **** the prisoners to the south. Shen Zhuo and Shen Xiang led the volunteers through the Valley of Death and followed He Duo's southward path to the north to reinforce Yancheng.

At this time, outside Yancheng, it was quiet. In the north of Yancheng, Jiwenzhaohe town looked out at the Beirong camp in the distance. Ji Wenzhao said: "They haven't attacked the city for a long time. We opened the gate this morning. When they rushed out, they were just defending, not chasing."

Zhenbeihou asked: "The memorial to the capital was handed out."

Ji Wenzhao nodded: "The soldier who came back said that the messenger was out of the encirclement."

Zhenbeihou asked again: "Are you sure we have to wait more than ten days"

Ji Wenzhao nodded firmly: "We must wait until they leave the camp."

Bei Rong has been siege for so long without attacking, Zhenbeihou's confidence has become stronger and stronger, and he nodded and said: "Okay, the day they retreat is when our army will go to war."

Ji Wenzhao said, "Exactly! If it were my guarantor, at this time there has been something unfavorable to Tugu Khan."

Zhenbeihou looked at Ji Wenzhao with special admiration, and Ji Wenzhao smiled and seemed confident-He Duo's army should have been annihilated, and Bei Rong's interior should have been an accident.

He was not wrong at all. He Duo's disbanded soldiers couldn't speak the language and couldn't move north. Tugu Khan couldn't get news from He Duo for a long time, so he had to send someone to contact him. But the capital of Bei Rong was in chaos at this time, and all the elite soldiers of Tugu Khan followed him to the south, and the defense of the imperial city was empty. A team of 1,000 people broke through the city gate. After entering the city, it set fire wildly. The army followed up. The offenders knew the road well, knew the capital well, and went straight to the palace of Tugu Khan...

Although Zhang Yunming has horses on his way, he travels quickly, but whenever he arrives in a big city, Zhang Yunzheng always goes shopping and buys some dried fruits or local specialty snacks, and soon he has a big bag. As soon as he left the city, he took the lead and drove his horses desperately, exhausting everyone to death. Zhang Yunming said angrily: "Don't try so hard to make it happen. Next time, don't go into the city to buy things."

Zhang Yunzheng glared: "This is the time you went to Jiangnan to teach me. Why don't you have to buy something to give away when you return to Beijing, you plan to go back empty-handed."

Zhang Yunming is going crazy: "Is this the same. In the past, we went to the south of the Yangtze River to play, and this time we went out to fight! If we didn't bring anything back to the city, it's no wonder that people would come back and they should be happy if we go back alive!"

Zhang Yunzheng snorted and said, "If you have the ability, don't buy anything! I won't be as ignorant as you!"

Zhang Yunming gritted his teeth: "Don't think that I don't know who you are buying things for!" So pleased that... Whenever he thinks of that woman, he froze...

Zhang Yunzheng is not shy at all, and raised his eyebrows: "Then what's the matter, I am not as stingy as you! I never give anything to others, the poor five princesses..."

Zhang Yunming really wanted to have a fight with Zhang Yunzheng, but seeing Zhang Yunzheng very happy, he could only hold back his breath, but next time Zhang Yunzheng went to the city to scan the goods, Zhang Yunming also bought a few local products by the way.

People coming and going outside Yan Jing’s mansion are extremely busy: the families of those students who have gone to the capital often come to inquire about the current situation of the capital, the messengers from various colleges and academies deliver various letters, and Yan Jing sends people who inquire about the news to leave or come back……

The official Yan San took over the duties of some of the official Yan Er and helped to manage the academy, but he was left behind and messed up, and the affairs of the academy were almost paralyzed. But now Yan Jing didn't care about managing the academy. He only watched the situation nervously, wondering if the volunteers of the West Road had won, otherwise the Yan's Academy was just on the way to the capital of Beirong, and he would definitely not be spared the war.

He is already busy here now, but there are still people who come and add to the chaos. A young boy shouted from the yard: "I want to go back to the capital! I want to go back to the capital!"

Yan Jing frowned and said, "What's going on?"

The servant next to him said: "The last time Young Master Su wanted to go to the capital with the official Yan, you said that Mrs. Ji asked you to look at this child, but did not say that he was allowed to go to the capital, so he would not let him go, and his master did not let him go. It is said that this is the time to go to school, and time cannot be wasted. Some other masters have ran away, but his master still attends classes every day and arranges homework for them, especially Young Master Su, so he should not be negligent. But The day before yesterday, his master took the book. His brother and nephew died in battle. He cried a lot and returned to his hometown. Now that there is no one to restrain Young Master Su, he came to make a fuss."

Yan Jing snorted: "How old is he now, how can he go back to the capital! He walks alone and wants ten people to send it..."

Someone rushed in and said in a low voice, "My lord, it's true. I personally went a hundred miles away and saw the army of volunteers! It is the handsome banner of Pingyuanhou, now heading towards the capital. The army is neat and morale is high. It’s not like a defeated battle."

Yan Jing pursed his lips, frowned and thought for a moment, and said, "Well, let Young Master Su go back to the capital and go with him to more than 30 people. It is considered as sending him to the capital officials to assist the high officials. People, prepare to celebrate your success." The person here answered.

When the people were all out, Yan Jing let out a sigh of relief—the volunteers had already won.

A few days later, the attempted pirating of the two residences in Beihou, Ping and Yuanhou in the town of Beijing reached Yan Jing. Yan Jing read the letter carefully. He regretted that he was not in the capital and could not witness such dramatic changes in person. He wanted to borrow What's the reason to go to the capital, but if you think about it, you can give it up again. His previous official rank was extremely human, and once he entered Beijing, he was too eye-catching. Behind the scenes, anyway, the overall situation is now set. The three princes will become princes. If Pingyuanhou takes troops into Beijing, the three princes will be the emperors. If the country is saved, many of his protégés and old friends have also chosen the right camp. What are you worried about?

The army led by Pingyuanhou and the third princes did pass near the Yan's Academy, but they deliberately avoided the main towns. Sometimes they even lived at night and lived in the air every day. Ping Yuan Hou was worried that the third prince could not stand this kind of wild life, but the third prince didn't care at all. He felt that this was simply a copy of his wild hunting with the Shen brothers when he was a teenager. For so many years, he has not had the opportunity to travel in the fields so happily. This expedition is simply a long-awaited spring outing. He immediately looked at the cute green of early spring on the vast plain. He was so relaxed and happy that he couldn't see enough. He hoped that Pingyuanhou walked more slowly. The longer the journey, the better, so that he could see the flowers blooming everywhere when spring came.

Hou Ping Yuan finally received news from the capital and learned that the two governments had been ransacked, but the people were noisy and Qingliu led Baiguan Fuque, and the case was withdrawn. Ping Yuan Hou called the Third Prince and Ye Da Young Master and handed the news to them. The three princes were full of anger after reading-the emperor even ordered to transcribe the Zhenbeihou Mansion! Now it is the councilor of the prince, this must be instigated by the prince, but the emperor also agreed! He could hardly think about how heartbroken Shen Xiang would be if Zhenbei Hou's Mansion were copied and killed! How uncomfortable he will be! Zhenbeihou Mansion has always been his home. He wanted to be the brother of the Shen family brothers, wanted to marry Miss Shen as his wife, and be the son-in-law of the Zhenbeihou couple... The third prince said to Ping Yuanhou: "Let’s go back soon. Beijing!" He can't waste time on the road anymore.

After reading this book, Master Ye sighed secretly: At the beginning, his father said he wanted to sit in the capital, which was what he meant! It seems that my father has long seen that the third prince Pingyuan Hou is gone, if he loses, the prince will probably start. Master Ye thought that it was Shen Zhuo who had asked him to find those actors, and that during this period of time Ping Yuan Hou marched quietly on the grounds of not disturbing the people, and finally noticed the smell of conspiracy-how does this look like tempting the emperor and the prince? The order of copying and killing, and then letting the order fail, ruined their reputation? He remembered the conversation with his father when he was parting. At that time, his father said that the current situation was secret and saw that it was wrong, but how did Shen Zhuo prepare early? Now that Shen Zhuo is a military commander, he shouldn't understand it better than himself. Young Master Ye was a little bit lost.

Since then, Pingyuanhou no longer avoids residential locations, but instead marched towards the capital with great fanfare. The people along the way knew that this was the righteous soldier who had defeated Beirong. They all warmly welcomed and sent a large amount of supplies. The news of the victory of Pingyuan Hou's third prince spread, but Pingyuan Hou did not send memorials to the imperial court.

The old Taoist priest of Xiaoyunguan entered the altar at dawn. Before dawn, most of the Taoist priests have not yet got up, but there is still a Taoist boy in the Danfang who is on duty at night.

The veteran Taoist had been using the alchemy room to make alchemy, and the Taoist guarding the alchemy room did not care. The old Taoist priest said to Tao Tong: "You go out, I want to be here." When the young Taoist priest outside saw Tao Tong coming out, he dragged him away and said, "We are farther away, my master. Don't like others to be close."

Dao Tongxin Dao old Taoist practiced for so long, and he didn't see any medicine, just black and yellow pills. Where is it so particular, afraid of people seeing it... Before he had time to think about it, only the old Taoist ran out. , Yelled: "Run! It's going to explode!" The little Taoist ran away, and Tao Tong had to follow. As an elderly person, the old Taoist was really slow. After a while, there was a "bang", the bricks flew horizontally, and a pill furnace flew high into the sky. When it fell again, the original pill room had become a pile of rubble.

The three men were thrown to the ground by the air wave. The old Taoist and the little Taoist reacted the fastest. They got up and then ran. The old Taoist puffed out the dust and said: "I don't know it will be so powerful! My God, everything. It collapsed! My junior will be very angry..."

The Taoist boy of Xiaoyunguan was on the ground for a long time before he was relieved. He raised his head and shouted: "The pill room is exploded!"

The originally quiet Taoist temple suddenly became lively. Many people rushed out of the house. Many people only wore their shirts. They were all asking: "What's the matter!" "What's wrong!"

The little Taoist ran to a big rock in one breath, pulled out the two hidden packages, and continued to ran forward with the old Taoist. There was a shout from behind them: "The senior brother of the Taoist exploded the altar!" "Grab them." !"...

The two people stayed here for a long time and ran fast. They arrived at the courtyard in front of the Guan, and bypassed the gatekeeper who was obstructing. When they reached a corner gate, the little Taoist opened the door latch, and the two men ran out of the Guan with a sullen head. Go, and run out of sight in a while.

The Taoists looked at the pill room that had been bombed to ruins, and they were filled with righteous indignation. There are many refined medicines in this pill room, as well as many rare medicinal materials and raw materials! That pill furnace is also very precious! This old Taoist is really a dead star! Came here for nothing, and even blown up the pill room! Everyone immediately divided the work. Some went to the imperial palace in the capital to report to Dao Mao, and some began to pick things on the masonry.

Mao Daochang had just talked to the emperor about diamond powder, and the outside of the palace reported the news: Xiaoyunguan Danfang was bombed by an old Taoist priest! Mr. Mao, please come back quickly!

Mao Daochang was angry and anxious. He was indeed thinking about going back to Taoism, but you don't need to blow up my alchemy! He hurriedly went to Grandpa Sun and told him the situation. Grandpa Sun is now full of entanglements between the emperor and the prince. The bombing of the alchemy that Mao Daochang said is a major event. Let Mao Daochang go and return early. When he comes back, he needs to restore the emperor’s body. Mao Dao has grown out of the palace.

The prince got out of the emperor’s bedroom by preparing ginseng porridge for the emperor. He first found a place where there was no one and asked his eunuch: "The emperor was fine yesterday. Why did he feel sick this morning? I haven't seen anyone."

After a while, the prince was rewarded: only Mao Daochang had a long conversation with the emperor.

The prince now felt that everyone was fighting against himself. He suspected that Mao Daochang saw that the emperor was not in good health, and he would probably give the emperor a health regimen. He didn't know what moon and incense burner Xue Guifei would draw on the powder-wrapped paper. He felt that the paper bag from Xue Guifei was found out, and he would not be involved. He never thought that the emperor knew that the two of them entered Hong Kong on the night of the Chinese Valentine's Day. When he saw the pattern drawn by Concubine Xue, he introduced this bag to Concubine Xue. How did the crown prince think that Xue Guifei's romantic feelings towards him eventually ruined his major event.

The prince whispered to his confidant: "Find someone to kill Mao Daochang!" The **** was about to leave, but came back and whispered: "I heard that Mao Daochang has just left the palace." The prince said impatiently, "Let The guards go after him, and they must kill him! Chase him in the view and burn the view!" The **** took the order and left.

The old Taoist priest stood guard at a tea stall at the intersection, craned his neck and looked towards the capital. The little Taoist puffed his mouth: "Why are we waiting here"

The old Taoist priest was about to raise his hand to pat his head, when he suddenly realized that the little Taoist had grown into a teenager, and he shouldn't pat his head, so he patted the little Taoist on the shoulder and said, "How many times have I said it! I saw him." The Danfang was blown up, so I have to say sorry to him. We can't stay in the watch and wait for him. Maybe we will be beaten to death by the Taoist priests..."

The little Taoist pouted: "Isn't this to save him?"

The old Taoist said: "He doesn't know, let's tell him...Look, isn't it him?"

On the way, Mao Dao hurriedly walked over, and the old Taoist priest hurriedly got up to greet him and said with a smile, "Brother..."

Mao Daochang turned his head and looked over, and when he saw the old Taoist priest, he opened his eyes angrily: "Who is your brother? I am your enemy! Are you willing to destroy me! Ah! You come to see, I have never I'm sorry! I gave you food for you to live in vain, do you still have a conscience..."

The old Taoist laughed dryly: "Junior brother, don’t forget what the master said. His words are mean and lifeless, and his anger is damaging his life. You should calm down and calm down..."

The little Taoist listened dumbly-his master really had a way to teach others, and he didn't suffer at all when he faced Mao Daochang.

Mao Dao was so angry that his saliva spattered and said, "How calm down! Are all the medicinal materials in my pill room gone? That is what I have accumulated over many years! It is a precious thing for practicing health pill, where can I find it again! You! How can you start so cruel!"

The little Taoist interrupted: "My master doesn't know that gunpowder is so powerful! I only planned to blow a hole in the roof..."

Mao Daochang jumped his feet: "Blast a hole and it's okay! That's your house! Blast the hole if you want!"

The veteran Taoist spread his hands: "Otherwise, how can I call you back from the palace? This trick was given to me by someone else."

Although Mao Daochang originally meant to leave the palace, he couldn't admit it now in the dispute, and said angrily: "Why do you want me to come back! I was in the palace for the emperor, and the emperor." I've often seen you, why should I come back? Are you jealous of me! Seeing that I'm better than you, just think of Fa'er and drag me down!"

The little Taoist also shouted: "Hey, my master did this to save you! Otherwise, we would have returned to the mountains long ago. Who wants to see the blinding eyes in your view..."

Mao Daochang hummed: "What save me! Sophistry! Do I need you to save me? I'm not good now!..." As he said, there was a sound of hoofs on the road, a dozen horses ran over, and the old Taoist squinted his eyes. , Said: "It looks like it's in the palace..."

Mao Daochang also turned his head to look, and saw that a knight looked at them right away. He raised his finger in this direction. Someone drew his sword in a clatter, and said loudly, "Wu that demon way! Where to go!"

Mao Daochang was puzzled, looking at the old Taoist priest: "You have caused trouble..."

The old Taoist pulled down his long sleeves and said, "Run! This is here to kill you!" The little Taoist half opened his mouth, but the young man reacted quickly. He turned around and ran, and the old Taoist rushed to follow him. Mao Daochang hesitated to look at the people who rushed over, and saw that they were not chasing the old Taoist priests and the little Taoist priests, but came to him, and then he believed that they were looking for themselves, and he hurriedly chased the old Taoists and the little Taoist priests.

The guards in the palace rode over the tables and chairs of the tea stall to chase and kill the Taoist priests who fled. Outside the tea stall happened to be an outpost set up by Ping Yuanhou. There were more than a dozen volunteers watching the pedestrians. They saw a team of guards. After chasing three Taoist priests, I don’t know the reason, but I can’t see it. I can’t really stop it. But it’s okay to throw a chair and pull off the horse to ask questions. As soon as I disturbed, the little Taoist led the old Taoist priest and Mao Daochang into the room. A forest not far behind the tea stand. He played a lot of hide-and-seek with Zhang Yunzhao and Shen Qiang in the past, and was able to keenly find a hiding place. After walking through the woods for a while, he found a low-lying place and jumped in. The old Taoist pulled a branch around and sat down. Next to the Taoist priest, he covered himself with the branches. Mao Daochang also hurriedly picked up two branches from under the tree, squeezed into the low-lying area, hurriedly pulling the branches over his head and barely covering himself.

If someone looks at them from the front, they can see the head and shoulders between the branches, but the cavalry rides right behind them. The low-lying terrain hides the bodies of the Taoists, and a branch and leaves block people's sight.

The three men frightened and listened to the sound of horseshoes from a distance, and no one dared to move. When the sound of the horse's hoof was far away, the old Taoist priest whispered to the little Taoist: "The young master Zhang said that we can hide in Pingyuan Hou Mansion, and we will go there now."

Mao Daochang was still in shock, and asked the old Taoist priest: "Why someone wants to kill me, you must not be because of you"

The veteran Taoist said: "There are experts who have counted, if you don't leave the palace, you will be burned to death by the prince."

Mao Daochang was shocked: "Prince! How is the prince! He is the one who recommended me to the palace! Could it be that he gave the emperor diamond powder!"

The old Taoist asked: "The emperor ate diamond powder"

Mao Daochang nodded: "Looking at the image, the emperor took that thing and asked me what it was. I told him that he could kill, and the emperor looked very angry..."

The old Taoist priest sighed to Mao Daochang: "Junior brother, if the emperor dies, people say it was because of dust and dust that accumulated in the body, destroying the liver and kidneys, and he died. Who do you think the prince would blame"

Mao Dao’s long face turned blue, and he stammered: "I will definitely say that I took my pill...Brother, I will let you go to Pingyuan Hou Mansion, too. I heard that there are soldiers and arrows in their mansion. Can't fight in! You are sure they will take us in."

we! The little Taoist gave a long look, but the old Taoist didn't care and said, "I have done a lot for Young Master Zhang! They didn't let us in, so I said he owed me favor!"

In fact, the old Taoist priests don’t need to say anything about owing favors. They arrived at the gate of Pingyuan’s Hou Mansion. As soon as they said that they were friends of Zhang Gongzi, they passed it inside, and Li immediately asked them to be taken into the upper-class guest rooms. It was delicious and delicious, and servants were sent to serve. Li is now worried about his two sons every day. As long as they are friends, Li will love the house and Wu and will entertain them well. These are things to follow.

In the palace, the prince saw that there was no one around, and took a few deep breaths: Father is really sick! Did the medicine given by Concubine Xue Gui begin to work? In this way, the emperor lay down and should go for a year and a half, but he couldn't wait for a year and a half, he couldn't even wait for ten and a half months! He wants to become emperor now! His heart was beating-he had to start. He remembered his mother saying that if this powder is used in small amounts, people will slowly get sick, weak and die. If used in large amounts, it can block the liver and gallbladder and cause an outbreak. Emergency can be killed in two or three days. It's given to the emperor. If anyone doubts, it's Mao Daochang's pill...

The prince walked slowly down the corridor and was told to make the ginseng porridge. The rice must be smashed so that it could be swallowed in the mouth. Then he went to the palace and went back to the east palace.

When someone came to report that the ginseng porridge was ready, the prince went back to the emperor’s bedroom, took the food box in the eunuch’s hand, and said: "The palace is sent in for the emperor." The **** in the royal dining room saluted, and the prince again Taking a deep breath, carrying the food box and entering the door.

Originally, there were three or four eunuchs standing in the outer room, but now Grandpa Sun was staring at the emperor's bed inside, and the outer room was actually empty.

The prince's heart was beating wildly. He placed the food container gently on the bookcase, opened the lid and put it aside, turned his back to the inner compartment, took out a small bottle from his sleeve, and poured the powder into the porridge. He didn't dare to use the silver spoon in the food box, so he had to endure the scalding, stirred the powder with his fingers, lifted his robe and wiped his hands. There was a pot of bonsai on the corner of the book, and the prince reached out and stuffed the vial into the soil. He looked at the surface of the bonsai, and then picked up the food box with ginseng porridge, walked to the inner door, and whispered: "Father, my child is here to bring you ginseng porridge."

The emperor inside gave a hum, and the prince lifted the curtain and entered the room.

According to Feng Shui, the bedroom should not be large. As soon as the emperor's bedroom entered, he was at the side of the dragon bed within three steps. Grandpa Sun stood on the head of the bed with low eyebrows, like a wooden person.

The prince asked the emperor: "Father, the emperor wants to drink."

The emperor hummed again without opening his eyes.

The prince put the food box on the side of the coffee table and picked up the porridge bowl. Then he picked up the silver spoon and stirred it. When he sat beside the emperor’s bed, he was about to feed a spoonful to the emperor. The emperor opened his eyes slightly and looked at the prince from under his eyes. , The prince shook his hand, but then said: "Father, please use porridge."

The emperor closed his eyes, twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "I don't want to drink porridge."

The prince was stunned, and then persuaded: "Father, ginseng raises vitality, nourishes yang and nourishes yin, please use some of it."

The emperor said: "Then have some ginseng soup."

The prince tried desperately to keep the muscles on his face from twisting. He retracted his hand and was about to go out with the porridge. The emperor said: "Put the porridge here. Maybe I want to drink it later." Grandpa grandpa stretched out his hand, and the prince hesitated for a moment. He handed the porridge bowl to Grandpa Grandpa and said to the emperor, "My son, go and get ginseng soup for my father." He stood up and saluted and went out .

After leaving the bedroom, the prince asked him to go to the imperial kitchen to fetch ginseng soup, saying that he was going to the east palace to deal with the matter, and hurried back to the east palace-why didn't he come out with more powder and had to run! The prince took something from the East Palace, and when he came back, the Imperial Kitchen had already delivered ginseng soup-the Imperial Kitchen simmered the ginseng soup all day, and he was on call.

This time, the prince entered the house from outside with the ginseng soup, and there was no one outside the palace! The prince secretly said that his luck is so good, it can be seen that it is God's will! Once cooked and cooked again, the prince will not be so nervous if he does it again this time. He took out a small paper bag from his sleeve, poured the powder into the soup, crumpled the paper into a small ball, and put it back in his sleeve, but he was worried, took it out, and stuffed it into the bonsai soil again. Also came across the vial he put in last time.

Watching the powder on the soup sink into the soup, the prince picked up the plate and walked into the bedroom again. At this time, he was not nervous anymore, he calmly put down the tray, picked up the soup bowl, stirred the dust together with a silver spoon, and said to the emperor: "Father, the ginseng soup is here, please use it."

The emperor opened his eyes, not half-opened this time, but opened them all. Seeing that the emperor’s eyes seemed to shoot cold arrows, the prince blinked his eyes, and felt that he had to do it again-look at this. Essence, the emperor will not die in these two days. I hope that the medicine given is enough... The prince felt that no one knew about this kind of thing, even if the emperor felt that there was something in the soup, it did not matter, so he said that the ginseng had not been cleaned. Doesn't ginseng generally have a smell of soil...

While thinking about it, the prince smiled and handed the soup bowl to the emperor. The emperor did not raise his hand and said, "Give it to the grandson."

The prince thought that the emperor wanted Grandpa Sun to serve, so he handed the bowl and spoon to Grandpa Grandpa who held out his hand, and said, "Father, it is best to drink it while it is hot."

Said to Sun Gonggong: "Go." Sun Gonggong responded, carrying the bowl and went out.

The prince's heart began to beat wildly. He put more stone powder this time, but this silverware could not be detected, so it should be fine. But why did the emperor let Sun Gonggong go out?

The emperor looked at the prince with his eyes slightly slanted and asked, "What happened to the prince?"

The prince's heart jumped, but then it loosened. If it's just the prince's business, there is no need to worry. He wanted to say that the princess was sick and died, but then he thought, the emperor's face was so ugly, did he already know that the princess was beaten to death by himself and then lied to the emperor to be unhappy...

In a dilemma, the prince sighed: "Baby and her really can't get along. There was a big quarrel that day, and the child hit her..."

The emperor asked faintly: "I just beat her."

The prince licked his dry lips and said, "Father, the boy did...do something wrong..."

The emperor half-closed his eyes: "What's the matter?"

The crown prince said with difficulty: "My child starts, it's heavy..."

The emperor sneered, waited a while, and asked: "That's it."

The prince thought that the emperor wanted him to take care of this, so he nodded and said, "Just this..."

Grandpa Sun came in from outside the house, carrying the soup bowl, and whispered to the emperor: "Your Majesty, just like the upper bowl, there is that thing..."

The prince's heart shrank into a ball, and he felt extremely ominous, but he couldn't believe it.

The emperor suddenly opened his eyes and kicked the prince to the side of the bed. The prince knelt to the ground, crying and said: "Father! Father! Take care of your body!"

The emperor snorted: "Take care of your body! Take care of your body, you gave me diamond powder!"

The prince was so frightened that he was about to urinate, but he still said stubbornly: "Father, what kind of stone powder! The boy doesn't understand..."

Grandpa Sun handed the bowl to the emperor. The emperor saw that there was a layer of solidified lard on the bowl, which was opened, and fine powder could be seen under the grease. The emperor threw the bowl in front of the prince: "Look at it for yourself! Do you think the clothes are seamless? This powder is like oil, pour it in with hot oil, float the oil on the water, and then use ice water to town the bowl, the powder is on top, what else do you have? It can be said! Not only in one bowl, but also in two bowls! You beast! I treat you so well, beast..." He was so angry that he could only scold the beast all the time.

The prince stammered desperately: "Father...Father...What do you mean, boy...no...don't understand!"

Grandpa Sun coughed: "In fact, someone was staring at the beam in the outbuilding. The bottle and paper under the bonsai have been dug out..."

The prince squatted his head vigorously: "Father! It's Mao Daochang! Mao Daochang told the child that the kind of stone powder can help to grow, and the child is worried about the health of the father..."

The emperor angrily picked up an incense burner beside the bed and smashed it over: "It was Dao Mao who told me what this is! You beast full of lies! Come!"

The prince cried and walked over to the emperor: "Father! Father! Forgive the baby..."

The emperor shouted: "Beast! How can I spare you!"

Upon hearing this, the prince leaped forward and slammed onto the emperor, and severely pinched the emperor's neck: "Father! Don't force me anymore!"

When he was about to succeed, he suffered a complete failure. He was almost crazy for a while and was extremely powerful. Suddenly, the emperor had no defense at all. He was choked with blush and his eyes turned up... The prince's eyes lit up, and the flames of hope ignited again. When he started, he used his full strength and murmured: "Father! Please die! Die! You should have died long ago!..."

Grandpa Grandpa couldn't open the prince. While yelling, he picked up the incense burner thrown by the emperor from the ground and hit the prince on the head. Although he wanted to save the emperor, this was the prince, and he did not dare to kill him. After a few consecutive strokes, the prince did not let go, but the blood flowed down from his forehead, and continued to pinch the emperor's neck savagely. Grandpa Sun was terrified, and finally took a fierce blow. The prince rolled his eyes and fell under the bed.

Only then did the people outside ran in and tied the prince up.

Grandpa Sun quickly helped the emperor and patted him on his chest and back. After a long while, the emperor was relieved and coughed desperately. After spitting out a few mouthfuls, he actually coughed out a mouthful of blood.

Grandpa Sun hurried to pour tea and let the emperor rinse his mouth. The emperor’s face was gray, as if he was getting old in an instant. With trembling lips, he pointed and said, "Go to the crown prince, go down..." He wanted to go to jail, but suddenly felt tired and said: "claustrophobic, every day Kneel for two hours, palm your mouth..."

The guards responded and went out carrying the unconscious prince.

The corner of the emperor's mouth drooped, drooling vigorously, and Grandpa Sun said to the outside: "Hurry up and call the royal doctor!"

The emperor crooked his mouth and said vaguely: "Proclaim the decree, the prince...wrong country, filial piety...for...the cruel prince..." he rolled his eyes and passed out.

Grandpa Sun called the emperor while urging people to find an imperial doctor. When the imperial doctor came, he diagnosed the pulse for the emperor, saying that it was phlegm rushing to attack the heart. In the evening, the emperor woke up. When Grandpa Sun saw it, he took the imperial decree and other official documents, put them on the small table beside the emperor’s bed, and asked carefully: "Your Majesty, it feels good."

The emperor motioned to Grandpa Sun to lift him up and sit down, and asked weakly, "Is there any military information?" Bei Rong won't come, right?

Grandpa Sun said carefully: "There is news that West Road, His Highness the Three Princes, Heping Yuanhou, may have won..." He gave the emperor this good news, thinking that maybe it would make the emperor happy, but the emperor did not like it. Angrily: "I won! I won...no good news to the court!" He coughed, and his mouth became more crooked. Grandpa Sun hurriedly beat him on the back. The emperor panted for a while, closed his eyes and regained his senses, and said: "Go, take the four princes back to the palace." Seeing the emperor's face gloomy, Grandpa Sun responded quickly, saying that the emperor was ill, and someone really needed to help.

The next day, the imperial decree came out from the palace: The prince rebelled against the emperor and had been taken the place of prince!

Jingcheng was not surprised by the news. After all, when the crimes of pirates and killings in Houping and Yuanhou in Zhenbei were reversed, everyone knew that the prince made a mistake. These days, they heard rumors on the street that the three princes, Ping Yuanhou had won. The emperor had to withdraw the prince to appease them.

After hearing the news, Old Lady Lu smiled briefly, and said to the person: "Tell the people in the palace, let's do it, let him know who this is for." As soon as the person was about to leave, Old Lady Lu said again: "Send someone to look at the fourth prince and feel his temper." This time, he can't choose the wrong one.

Ye Zhongshu also got news from the palace. Knowing what happened, he sighed: "He still got to this point..." He had already seen that the prince had a bad heart, but the palace was really hard to let people go. There was only one person. The **** was able to stare, but he didn't expect that the emperor consciously found out... Ye Zhongshu instructed people: "Quickly, find someone out of the city and go in the direction of the eldest son! Pass this news to him."

In fact, there is no need for Ye Zhongshu's family to pass the book, the people of Ping Yuan Hou had already stopped and passed the matter to Ping Yuan Hou who was on the march. After receiving the letter, Ping Yuanhou said: "Speed ​​up and return to Beijing!" The prince was abandoned so quickly! They need to go back as soon as possible.
