Chapter 18: The Emperor in the Sea (I)


The atmosphere in the main hall was dull, as if a black cloud was pressing down on the city, and the building was about to fall.After Fan Yun received the holy decree from Xiao Ye, he invited Xiao Zhaoye and Xiao Ye written on the holy decree to the main hall alone."

The emperor has not woken up yet, please wait here."

After speaking, Fan Yun bowed and saluted, and turned around and retreated."

Fan Thorn History."

Xiao Zhaoye stopped him, "How can the Holy Will be vain that Grandpa Huang has a will here, so that the two of us will meet before applying."

Even if the emperor's grandfather is not clear at this moment, the two of us should serve on the side, how can we wait here to be idle" "The two of you don't know, there are many people in the dormitory, and it is useless to recover from the dragon's body. ”Xiao Ye flicked his sleeves and sat down, and Shi Shiran said: "Oh, that's the case, then call Ziliang to come out to see us first, and I want to ask him how he guards this Yanchang Palace." ”"King Jingling is loyal and filial, and has won the trust of His Majesty.The emperor ordered him to serve while he was sick.King Jingling couldn't untie his clothes and waited on the side of the bed.I'm afraid that he won't be able to take the time to see you, King Wuling, at this moment. ”"The second uncle is very hard and hard.Since the fifth grandfather wants to see the second uncle, then this king will enter the palace to replace the uncle" Xiao Zhaoye waved his sleeves and walked straight to the inner hall.Fan Yun was anxious: "The grandson can't help it" "Does Lord Fan think that this king does not have this qualification" Xiao Zhaoye turned his head and looked at Fan Yun coldly, not angry and arrogant.Fan Yun was dumbfounded for a while, so he had to bow his head: "Weichen doesn't dare." ”"That's good" "Wait" Fan Yun had the courage to stop him, "I also asked Taisun Rong Weichen to go in and say goodbye." ”"Tongyu" Xiao Zhaoye repeated softly, looking at him with a smile, "It's not that the emperor's grandfather is still in a dream" "Weichen wants to" "Could it be" Xiao Zhaoye interrupted him unceremoniously, his tone was cold, "Lord Fan thinks that when this king enters the palace, he still needs to report to King Jingling" The identity of the emperor's grandson is more noble than that of the prince, under one person, above ten thousand.In other words, if His Majesty has been unconscious since then and has not left a "so-called edict", then the heir to the throne is undoubtedly Xiao Zhaoye.Letting him in to guard the emperor at this moment will only make the situation more and more unfavorable, but "Brother Fan."

The prince invited the grandson in. ”Fan Yun turned around and saw Xiao Yan entering from the main entrance, and the golden sunset made his figure slender."

Wechen Xiao Yan has seen the emperor's grandson and the prince of Wuling.""

No courtesy."

Xiao Zhaoye said lightly, then turned around and went to the inner hall.Fan Yun's eyes were as big as copper bells, staring directly at the visitor.Xiao Yan was indifferent, just smiled and watched Xiao Zhaoye's back go away."

Please also ask King Wuling to wait," Xiao Yan continued, "The prince will come out soon. ”"Good, good."

Xiao Ye smiled at the corner of his mouth, and waved his hand casually, "You go down first" "Weichen retreated" The lights in the dormitory were very dim, so dark that the carved beams and paintings could not show exquisite textures, and it was so dark that the piles of gold and jade could not show dazzling brilliance.In the huge dormitory, there are no human figures to be seen, no human voices can be heard, and there is a death-like silence, as if the brilliance of yesterday is gone.Xiao Zhaoye was sad from it, and he was able to stand still by holding on to the door frame, he calmed down, gritted his teeth and walked in.Bypassing the screen, I saw that the curtain of the dragon bed was lowered, and through the golden silk veil, a body sleeping peacefully could be vaguely seen.On the side of the dragon bed, a man sat on a pear circle chair, bowed his head slightly, and gently stirred a pot of evergreens on a few with a skewer, as if loosening the soil."

Grandson greets the emperor's grandfather" Xiao Zhaoye read softly, his knee bent, but he hit the ground hard."

There is no one here," Xiao Ziliang said slowly, "Zhaoye, you get up." ”Xiao Zhaoye got up slowly, and turned to face Xiao Ziliang: "Uncle has been working hard for many days, and now this king will take care of the emperor's grandfather." ”"Why are you in such a hurry to kick me out" Xiao Ziliang put down the skewer, patted the dust on his fingers, and approached step by step.The sharpness and cunning unique to the Xiao royal family came to the face with a strong sense of oppression.His handsome and elegant face has aged a lot in the past six months, but his eyes are still so warm and unpredictable."

I thought that you were in a hurry to enter the palace because my people blocked the palace ban.If you want to come to see your father, shouldn't you have come a long time ago" Xiao Zhaoye's heart shook, and his face remained silent: "Uncle is reasonable, this king is indeed confused in his heart, and he wants to ask his uncle." ”"You say.""

In my uncle's heart, I really covet this throne" "Covetous" Xiao Ziliang couldn't help but laugh, "You have promoted me, it is more appropriate to say that you covet me" Xiao Zhaoye frowned: "What is my uncle's plan" "You should have heard people talk about it, the imperial brother left home privately when he was fourteen years old and traveled abroad for a year.At that time, Daqi had not yet been founded, and our family lived in the general's mansion in Jiankang.He's not a royal brother yet, just my eldest brother. ”Xiao Ziliang walked to the window, his expression was focused, as if he could see the outside world through the heavy curtain, the sky was high and the sea was wide: "No one can say clearly, what he has experienced this year."

I only know that in the cold winter of that year, he was found by the family soldiers from a thatched hut by the lake, and half of him was escorted home to visit his seriously ill grandmother.He knelt down in front of the couch, bowed three times, and then walked out of the house in despair, without even looking back when his father called out to him.Running away from home first, disobedience and unfilial piety last, my father was furious and asked for the family law.The eldest brother was beaten to the point that his skin was open and he was bedridden for half a month, but he didn't snort, as if he didn't feel pain, so much so that people rumored that the eldest son of the General's Mansion was sucked by the goblins outside. ”Xiao Zhaoye listened in a daze, unable to believe that apart from death, there was anything else that could make such a pair of shrewd eyes empty and numb."

Dad ordered the eldest brother to be detained in the house for reflection, and no one was allowed to visit, and the mother was so anxious that she shed tears.At that time, I thought that my father was still angry and refused to forgive my eldest brother.Now that I think about it, firstly, the eldest brother was punished and injured, he was so that the eldest brother could recuperate with peace of mind, and secondly, he was worried that the eldest brother's abnormality would spread out and let outsiders gossip.Despite the order, a few days later, in the evening, I still found an opportunity to sneak into my eldest brother's room to visit.There was no light in the room, and I secretly thought that my eldest brother had fallen asleep, but I never thought that he was sitting on the bed with only a thin coat, the window was wide open, and the moonlight and cold wind poured in, and it was the cold winter of the ninth month. ”I was in a hurry, and without saying a word, I rushed up and closed the window tightly, and then I didn't care about the elders and the young, and opened my mouth to count them.What kind of body is skinned, and the parents and the like completely forget the filial piety of brothers, friends and brothers.I didn't think about it, and after complaining, my eldest brother actually smiled at me, patted the bed and told me to sit down, just like before he left home.It was the first time I'd seen him smile in a year. ”Xiao Ziliang curled the corners of his mouth, as if recalling the smile: "That night, he was in higher spirits and talked to me a lot.There is a sentence that impressed me, he said: The sorrow of the heart should not be forgotten.Second brother, I think I'm indeed a demonic barrier.This one, I'll count on you in the future. ”At that time, I flatly retorted, and said to him, "If you lament the situation, you should cheer up your spirits and do the right thing for heaven."

I can't remember what he said later, but I was probably laughing at me for not understanding his intentions. ”"The worries of the heart, don't forget" Xiao Zhaoye groaned in a low voice, "Xiaoya's water" "Exactly." ”Xiao Ziliang sighed lightly, "But where is he worried about state affairs, he is clearly sighing that this family has bound him to the sky." ”As he said, he had no family concerns and stayed in his house all day, as if the outside world had nothing to do with him.Father's beating and mother's persuasion didn't work.Later, he married a wife, and his father and mother were not able to discipline him much, so he went.Because of the withdrawal of the eldest brother, my father and mother really put their hopes on me, I led the troops on his behalf, served his relatives on his behalf and did his filial piety, and thanked the saint on his behalf, I picked up the burden that the eldest son should have shouldered at that time, I never doubted that I should inherit the mantle of my father.But later, Emperor Gao changed the dynasty, and his father became the crown prince.Grandfather named the eldest brother as the king of Nanjun, creating a precedent for the emperor and grandson to be crowned king since the Eastern Jin Dynasty" "Zhaoye thought that his uncle was not a person who was greedy for vanity. ”In the wide sleeves, Xiao Zhaoye's fists were secretly clenched."

What is greed for vanity, if you mean a yearning for power, then you think highly of me."

Xiao Ziliang laughed self-deprecatingly, "If you have no desire, you are strong, and how many people can do it After the eldest brother gradually began to take charge of political affairs, my second son was forgotten, and there was no future for me."

I couldn't calm down, but I had nothing to do, so I had to keep my head down.But who would have thought that the eldest brother died young, and the father would make you the grandson" Xiao Zhaoye was angry and said fiercely: "So you can't be angry, so you send someone to assassinate me."

The flying falcon is carried and stopped.Oh my brothers, friends of the people.Mo Ken is chaotic, who has no parents to run water, and its soup is soup.The flying falcon is flying and flying.Remembering the other without a trace, carrying the carry.The worries of the heart should not be forgotten.The flying falcon of the bird, the rate of the tomb.The people's rumors, rather than punish my friends, slander their prosperity.At the same time, the gate of the Quartet Palace was opened, and the carriages and horses of the royal family of the powerful ministers in the capital lined up in a queue, and they entered the palace gate step by step, and the fish went to the Jinluan Palace.Here, Xiao Ye, who was sitting in the Yanchang Hall, heard the news, put down the tea cup in his hand, swept the folds on the brocade clothes, and walked out."

According to me, it is none other than the King of Jingling.You see, the emperor has entrusted him with such an important matter as guarding the palace, and he trusts him so much, how can he wait for idle talk" "And the king of Lingling is old and serious, and Corporal Lixian is the best candidate. ”"But have you forgotten that the Holy Emperor has set up the Imperial Grandson" "The monarch's authority is unpredictable, at that time, the Emperor lost Prince Wenhui, so he gave the Holy Grace to the Imperial Grandson, and now" "That's it, and no matter else, even now the Imperial Grandson has never entered the palace, the general trend is not obvious enough" "This is not enough, I heard that as early as an hour ago, someone saw the imperial grandson and the King of Wuling driving into the palace from Dongyang Gate. ”"I think it's just a matter of falsehood to dismiss the prince of Taisun, the prince of Wuling has no real power, and he doesn't invite His Majesty to see him, how could the emperor summon him to the palace one step earlier, this prince is still enjoying Qingfu in Shouyang Mountain, when did he enter Beijing" "Lord Zhao remembers this king":
