Chapter 162 [Heavenly Fortune]


Emperor Xinde nodded and said to the eunuchs on both sides: "Take Mr.

Yuan outside to rest.

I want to have a good chat with this master."

I vaguely sensed something from Emperor Xinde's eyes.

He would not be so confused as to be alone in a room with a stranger.

It seemed that he had already guessed my identity from various signs.

Emperor Xinde sighed and said, "Is this you Yinkong?"

His words confirmed my guess.

I slowly took off my mask and knelt down in front of him respectfully: "My child is unfilial, and I hope my father will forgive me."

Emperor Xinde shook his head and said: "I have never blamed you, and you have nothing to blame.

Get up quickly."

Then I stood up.

Emperor Xinde said: "Yuan Tianchi was recommended to me by you.

I had already expected that you would come to me through him to avoid Zuo Zhuliu's surveillance."

I pretended to be extremely concerned and said, "How is your father's health?

Since I learned about my father's condition, I have been thinking about you all the time."

Emperor Xinde sighed: "Among all my princes, you are the most filial, and you are also the most promising.

I will leave the prosperous world to you, and I am relieved."

He has never been so kind to me. , which makes me feel a little weird.

Emperor Xinde patted the dragon bed, motioned for me to sit down next to him, and whispered: "I'm not sick, I'm just pretending this time, putting on a show for Zuo Zhuliu."

Everything really made Yuan Tianchi right, and he The illness was indeed a fake, and the real purpose was to trick me into returning to Kangdu, but I didn’t know what he wanted to do this time.

I couldn’t help but feel vigilant in my heart.

Emperor Xinde would not want to harm me again.

Emperor Xinde gritted his teeth and said: "Yinkong, help me get rid of Zuo Zhuliu" I was slightly startled.

As soon as we met, Emperor Xinde brought up this matter, but I didn’t know why Zuo Zhuliu would offend him.

I whispered: "Father, is it because of the incident between An Rong and her son?"

Emperor Xinde slapped the dragon bed hard: "Although I am old, I am not confused after all.

I know whoever wants to be prosperous.

I know who wants to seize our Long family's empire.

Zuo Zhuliu advised me Leave An Rong mother and son behind, clearly I want Dakang to offend Beihu.

If Beihu attacks us and attracts most of our military strength, South Korea will definitely take advantage of it.

Not only will your hard-earned country be taken away by others, but even I, Dakang, will be taken away.

"Divided among the nations."

I said respectfully: "Father, the Holy Ming."

But I was secretly wondering, how could Emperor Xinde suddenly become enlightened?

Could he have been pretending to be confused all along?

Emperor Xinde said: "My energy and physical strength are not as good as before.

It seems that the deadline is not far away."

This is the first time he has said such words in front of me.

This is completely different from his previous obsession with practicing Taoism and his deep belief in the art of immortality. different.

His eyes looked tired and empty: "Yinkong, do you think I am old and useless?"

I hurriedly said: "My child has never thought about it like this.

My father is wise and wise, and he is the first virtuous emperor in history in both civil and military skills."

"Throughout the ages," Emperor Xinde laughed bitterly, and then began to pant violently.

After a long time, he finally calmed down.

He said in a hoarse voice, "I have done a lot of stupid things in my life.

Otherwise, Dakang would not let me do this.

The sky is angry and people are complaining."

He stared at me and said, "Yin Kong , I am tired, I am really tired.

After getting rid of Zuo Zhuliu this time, I will completely hand over the well-being to you.

The incident in Yan country made me understand that you have surpassed me by a lot.

If I continue to stay.

In this position, it will only become an obstacle to you and a great obstacle."

I didn't know if he was testing me, so I hurriedly knelt down and said, "Father, please don't say that.

The father in the child's heart is the real master of Dakang."

Emperor Xinde patted my shoulder gently: "I have already issued an order to pardon your Sixth Emperor brother."

I was shocked to learn that King Xinglong Yuntao was demoted to Chuji by Emperor Xinde for treason.

It stands to reason that he should never return to Kangdu, but unexpectedly Emperor Xinde pardoned him.

Emperor Xinde said: "My days in this world are numbered.

Strangely enough, the biggest wish in my heart now is to have all of you brothers by my side.

I will be satisfied if I can see you before I die."

I sighed secretly in my heart, Emperor Xinde is indeed old, no matter how strong anyone is, he will never be able to fight against destiny.

Emperor Xinde held my hand and said, "After you ascend the throne, can you let go of your other brothers?"

I nodded, feeling secretly ashamed in my heart.

Even if I could let others go, King Qin and King Xing would definitely not be able to let them go.

They had long wanted to become emperors, and I could never leave these two hidden dangers in the world.

Emperor Xinde breathed a sigh of relief and said softly: "I really did not misjudge you.

Your mind is beyond the reach of other princes."

I whispered: "My father, the commanders-in-chief of Guiyang, Chongde, and Yueyang have close contacts with Zuo Zhuliu.

If we want to get rid of Zuo Zhuliu without causing civil strife in Dakang, we must first disintegrate the military power of these three places." ” Emperor Xinde said: "I have considered it, and I will make a decree to transfer the guards of the three places to other places."

I smiled and said: "Father, the Holy Ming, why don't you transfer the troops and horses from Chongde and Yueyang to the territory of the Yan Kingdom to assist Jiao Zhenqi in controlling the situation in the Yan Kingdom?

The 20,000 troops and horses from Guiyang can continue to stay there, and at the same time let Fu Tianxian, the admiral of the Luzhou Navy, took over the three areas and rebuilt a line of defense along the Yangtze River."

Emperor Xinde smiled calmly and said: "It seems that you have been prepared.

Fu Tianxian is a general promoted by King Yi Lin Beifeng.

Although he has outstanding abilities, he has always been arrogant and rude.

I once asked him to command the Yangtze River Navy, but When I was inspecting the south, this man dared to criticize my military administration in public, so I demoted him to Luzhou."

I respectfully said: "Father, now the Han, Qi and Jin kingdoms are eyeing Dakang.

The situation of our Yan country has been determined, and the Yangtze River defense line cannot be lost.

Although Fu Tianxian is arrogant, he highly respects this person in the Dakang army.

He is indeed qualified to lead the army in battle."

His unique side, given the situation in front of him, he should use talents in an eclectic way, so my father may wish to consider it."

Emperor Xinde nodded and said: "I no longer want to interfere with Dakang's affairs.

Just do whatever you want to do."

I was overjoyed.

It seemed that Emperor Xinde was indeed willing to abdicate and make way for someone more worthy.

With his help, he could treat Zuo Zhuliu with certainty.

I added: "The Longxiang army stationed in Kangdu is still in the hands of the Zuo family.

If we take action against Zuo Zhuliu, I am afraid that Zuo Dongxiang will immediately launch a rebellion."

Emperor Xinde sighed and said: "I have been worried about this matter.

Although the Longxiang Army is not large in number, they are all the elites of the Zuo Group.

Once an accident occurs, it will directly threaten the safety of the imperial city.

You Is there any good way?”

I said decisively: "Capture the thief first and capture the king first.

We should use lightning speed to control the Zuo family and his son, as well as all the family members of the key generals of the Longxiang army.

By then they will be defeated."

Emperor Xinde praised: "What a great idea, just do what you say."

He whispered: "Three days later, I will hand over all the affairs of the court to you in front of all the ministers.

When the auspicious day is calculated, I will hold a coronation ceremony for you."

My heart was beating wildly, and the wish that had been lingering in my heart for many years was about to come true.

No matter how calm I was, I couldn't help showing joy.

I hurriedly knelt on the ground, lowered my head to cover up my ecstatic expression, and said excitedly: "My child Thank you, Father” It was already midnight when I walked out of Yangxin Hall, and Yuan Tianchi saw my expression.

Knowing that I would be very satisfied with the outcome of tonight's discussion, he and I walked side by side along the palace road toward the east gate, and when we arrived at Fuyan Palace, a cold wind suddenly blew in our face, and I couldn't help but shudder.

I felt a sudden pain in my abdomen.

He covered his belly and smiled bitterly: "People have three urgent needs.

It seems that I have to trouble Mr.

Yuan to wait for me for a while."

Yuan Tianchi smiled and nodded.

I hurriedly dodged and rushed into the bamboo forest path on the right.

I was quite familiar with the terrain of the palace.

There is a clean room in the bamboo forest, but after walking for two steps, the pain in my stomach eased.

I rubbed my lower abdomen and thought to myself: "I wonder if I have eaten something unclean."

While I was thinking about it, I heard the bamboo forest in front of me.

There was a faint sound of voices coming from deep inside.

I was very surprised.

How could someone be here in the middle of the night?

Could it be that someone in the palace is having an affair here?

Driven by strong curiosity, I tiptoed towards the place where the sound came from, and vaguely heard someone whispering: "Mother Chen, this matter has nothing to do with me.

If I want to blame you, blame him."

This voice sounded somewhat familiar to my ears.

When I thought about it carefully, I realized that it must be the lonely voice of the little eunuch in the palace.

I felt more and more strange in my heart, but I didn’t know who the Aunt Chen he was talking about was.

I looked forward through the gap in the bamboo forest, and saw Lonely kneeling in a small open space in the bamboo forest, lighting a few pieces of paper money.

He whispered: "Why did you say so many things when you were living well?

You will die when you die.

Why do you want to implicate me?

He doesn't know when he will doubt me.

I guess I won't survive."

He was afraid of the fire.

Others noticed that they only lit a piece of paper money at a time, and the ashes fell into a hole dug in front of him, presumably to cover it with floating soil.

Luo Lone sighed and said: "Mother Chen, you will die if you die, why do you have to say so many words?

Otherwise, no one in the world will know about the secret.

Just forget about it and you have harmed yourself.

Why do you want to involve the prince as well?"

"

My heart sank, and an inexplicable fear took over my heart.

This matter was actually related to me.

I lowered my voice and said, "What exactly are you talking about?"

Luo Lone was so frightened that his body trembled suddenly, and he collapsed on the ground.

I put on a mask, so he didn't recognize me, and said tremblingly: "Who are you?"

I snorted coldly and took off my mask.

I was even more frightened by the loneliness: "Your Highness, Your Majesty" I slowly came to his side, tried to speak as slowly as possible, and comforted him: "Luo Lone, tell me exactly what happened.

I will never embarrass you."

Luo Lone was so frightened that tears flowed out.

After a long time, he finally calmed down and said in a trembling voice: "It's nothing."

I glared into his eyes: "If you don't tell me, I will immediately capture you in front of my father and tell him everything you did tonight."

Luo Lone hurriedly knelt down on the ground, kowtowed and said: "Your Highness, you must not do this, otherwise we may both lose our lives."

I became more and more suspicious and whispered: "Luo Lone, you must tell me this matter, otherwise I will not give you any favors."

Lonely shed tears and said, "Your Highness, you must be mentally prepared."

He wiped his tears and said, "A month ago, His Majesty suddenly invited Grandma Chen into the palace."

"Which Granny Chen?"

Lonely said in a low voice: "That was Po Wen who was responsible for examining Concubine Ping when she entered the palace."

I took a breath of air, and a heavy cloud enveloped my heart.

What I had been most worried about finally happened.

Only then did I remember that when Sun Sansan was about to die, he had mentioned that he had secretly paid off Wen Po, who performed my mother’s physical examination.

But at that time, everything happened too suddenly for me, and I ignored it.

Something happened, and now this hidden danger finally broke out.

Lonely said: "But after entering the palace, Grandma Chen did not come out.

Later, His Majesty called me and asked me to take Grandma Chen's body out and throw it into the well."

He recalled what happened in the past and looked extremely frightened.

The lips are getting paler.

The voice trembled again: "But I didn't expect that Grandma Chen didn't die completely.

When I was about to throw her into the well, she actually woke up and said something."

"What did she say?"

My voice shook with fear.

Lonely bit her lower lip and summoned up the courage to say, "She said that the prince is the son of Concubine Ping and the former crown prince.

Concubine Ping was pregnant before she entered the palace."

Lonely, under my extremely cold eyes, I could no longer speak.

I sneered: "She actually slandered me."

Luo Lonely said: "She said that when she entered the palace, she wrote two documents for personal examination, one of which is still in her hand and has now fallen into the hands of His Majesty."

I couldn't help but shudder.

If everything Luo Guo said was true, Emperor Xinde already knew my life experience.

This old fox, he actually concealed everything in front of me.

If it hadn't been for the unbearable abdominal pain just now, I came to the bamboo forest.

If I went to the toilet in the middle of the night, I would never have discovered this shocking secret.

No wonder his attitude towards me suddenly changed.

It seemed that he deliberately used Zuo Zhuliu to distract my attention.

Three days later, the real target he dealt with I'm afraid it's me I stared at the loneliness and said, "Mother Chen is dead."

Lonely nodded hurriedly and said: "I will throw her into the well according to Your Majesty's wishes."

I whispered: "Very good."

Murderous intent loomed in my heart.

This matter must not be spread out again, otherwise I will face the hostility of the entire royal family.

Lonely seemed to understand something from my eyes, and said in shock: "Prince, you" I didn't wait for him to finish speaking, and grabbed his neck with both hands.

How could Lonely be my opponent?

He had no power to fight back in front of me.

He kicked his feet desperately on the ground a few times, and he was dead in an instant.

I carried the corpse of the unusual craftsman upright and came to the pond at the west end of the bamboo forest.

I tied the stones tightly in his arms and pushed him into the pond.

After doing all this, and making sure that no one was around, I returned to the bamboo forest along the same path, and came to the place where I was burning paper in a lonely place.

I was meeting Yuan Tianchi who came to find me.

Yuan Tianchi's expression was not strange, and he smiled and said: "Why has the young master been gone for so long?"

I whispered: "I don't know why, but my stomach always feels uncomfortable.

It seems that I need to go back and take medicine as soon as possible."

Yuan Tianchi smiled calmly and said: "Young master, you need to take care of yourself."

Back at the farm outside the city, Chen Zisu, Jiao Xin and others were waiting for news about me.

Because something lonely happened on the way, I felt quite irritable at the moment.

I didn't tell everyone the details of entering the palace today, and went directly to my study.

I haven't had this deep feeling of fear for a long time.

Emperor Xinde actually knew my identity.

What on earth did he want to do?

Did he want to use me to deal with Zuo Zhuliu, and then take me out of his arms when I wasn't prepared?

Take out the map that I have treasured for a long time.

It is the only relic left by my father to me.

Dakang's current territory is much larger than when this map was drawn, but I still haven't fulfilled his wish.

My fingers moved along the vast borders of the Eight Kingdoms, getting closer and closer to success.

I won't let anyone stop me from moving forward.

Although Emperor Xinde knows that I am not his biological son, with his identity and status as the leader of the country, he has to take into account his own face and the reputation of the royal family and will never expose this matter.

The most likely thing he will do is to whisper Attack me without any hesitation.

Then he placed a charge on me and deprived me of my position as prince.

From his attitude towards Zuo Zhuliu, it can be seen that he should also be wary of Zuo Zhuliu.

This time he killed two birds with one stone.

No wonder he suddenly pardoned King Xing Long Yintao, and after getting rid of me, he became the crown prince.

It is bound to be left vacant, and he probably wants to re-appoint King Xing.

I pinched my brows painfully.

There was only one choice for me now.

The pane window was suddenly blown open by the wind, and a gust of cold wind sneaked into the room.

The candle flickered twice and then went out, plunging the whole room into darkness.

I didn't get up to close the window.

I leaned over the desk and fell into a deep sleep.

In a daze, my father appeared beside me.

His appearance became more and more clear in my mind.

I looked at him quietly, and his eyes were full of relief: "You have finally grown up."

"Father, what should I do?"

I said loudly, but my own voice could not be heard in my ears.

My father smiled and patted my shoulder, and unfolded the map on the desk.

The map miraculously grew in size before my eyes, showing the eight kingdoms with undulating mountains and surging rivers.

The father loudly said: "Why have you endured humiliation and hardship for so many years?

Isn't it just to become the emperor of Dakang one day and achieve an unprecedented foundation?

Now the opportunity has come to you.

Are you still hesitant?"

I replied excitedly: "Children will not hesitate."

The father pointed to the location of Kangdu: "This city has long been decayed.

Even Emperor Xinde himself could no longer stand the old and rancid smell here.

So he wanted to escape here and build a new palace, but he never realized that, This corruption is basically caused by himself.

Only by eradicating him can Kangdu regain its vitality."

I nodded excitedly.

"A true emperor.

Why should you care about what others think?

When you have achieved eternal success and are above everyone else, everyone will look up to you.

From that perspective, they will only see your respect and power, forever.

I can't see the story behind you."

The father's voice became smaller and smaller, and his figure gradually disappeared into the air.

I said loudly: "Father" In desperation, I opened my eyes and saw a man standing next to me.

I was suddenly covered in cold sweat.

I stretched out my hand to hold the dagger at my waist.

The indoor lights had been relit, and I could see clearly that it was Zi Ning standing next to me.

The long cloak on her body fell to the ground due to my movements.

Zi Ning's beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly, and her concern was revealed without any concealment: "You have a nightmare."

I breathed a long sigh of relief: "It's okay."

My voice was a little strange.

Zi Ning said: "I just heard from Mr.

Chen and others that the young master has come back, but he doesn't seem to be in a good mood, so I stewed bird's nest porridge and brought it to you."

I smiled and said, "Thank you Miss Zi Ning."

I took the bird's nest porridge from Zi Ning's hand and took a few sips.

Suddenly I thought of Qiu Yichen's incident and said apologetically: "After I came to Kangdu, I have been busy with affairs in the court and I haven't had time yet.

Go visit Brother Qiu and see how his condition is now."

Zi Ning's beautiful eyes were covered with a layer of gloom, and she whispered: "The condition keeps recurring, and the whole person is so thin that he has lost his shape."

I sighed, Qiu Yichen's fate today was all because of me.

Zi Ning said: "Mr.

Chen and the others are still waiting for you outside.

Do you want to see them?"

I hurriedly said: "Let them in quickly.

I was in a bad mood just now, but I ignored their feelings."

Zi Ning smiled gently and said: "You just need to remember that everyone cares about you.

As long as you are happy, that is the happiest thing for us."

Seeing her flowery smile, I couldn't help but froze, and blurted out: "Is this what Miss Zi Ning is thinking in her heart?"

As soon as I said this, I felt so regretful that I wanted to crawl into the ground, knowing that Zi Ning was Qiu Yichen's Fiancée, Qiu Yichen is my loyal subordinate and brother.

How could I say such provocative words?

Zi Ning's pretty face turned red, her long black eyelashes quickly drooped, and she turned around and left here without answering my question.

Not long after, Chen Zisu, Jiao Xin and others all came to the study.

After I asked them to sit down, I smiled and said: "I'm a little tired today, so I just came back to rest for a while.

Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net

Otherwise, I wouldn't have the energy to discuss things with you.

I've kept you waiting for so long.

You won't be surprised, right?"

Everyone laughed in unison.

Chen Zisu stared at me with his penetrating eyes and said, "It seems that the outcome of the meeting between the young master and Emperor Xinde today was not ideal."

I nodded and said, "Father quickly agreed to my request to deal with Zuo Zhuliu.

Tomorrow, he will issue an order to redistribute the garrison troops in the three southern towns."

Jiao Xin said dubiously: "It went so smoothly."

I nodded again and whispered: "Father has pardoned King Xing Long Yintao.

He should return to Kangdu in the next two days."

Chen Zisu frowned and said, "Does he have some purpose in pardoning Long Yintao at this time and letting him return to the capital?"

Jiao Xin asked: "Is Emperor Xinde's illness real or fake this time?"

I told the truth: "His illness is simply a disguise.

The purpose is to confuse Zuo Zhuliu, and also to attract me to return to Kangdu and use our power to remove Zuo Zhuliu."

Chen Zisu asked: "Has Your Majesty promised to hand over all the power in the court to the Young Master?"

"He promised to announce it in three days."

Chen Zisu slowly shook his head and said: "This matter is indeed puzzling.

If Emperor Xinde really sees Zuo Zhuliu's sinister intentions, he will hand over the imperial power to the young master as soon as possible, and the young master will deal with Zuo Zhuliu as the prince overseeing the country.

It should be easier.

Although he promised to give you the power in three days, he also asked Xing Wang Long Yuntao to return to Kangdu.

This can't help but make people feel strange. " Naturally, it was not convenient for me to reveal my life experience to them, so I insinuated myself and said, "I also feel that something is wrong.

Will Father borrow my hand to deal with Zuo Zhuliu this time, and then take advantage of me when I am not guarded to deal with me again?"

” Chen Zisu stared at my eyes for a long time and said, "Young master must have a plan in mind.

Please tell us."

I whispered: "Someone told me that my father wanted to kill me."

Everyone was shocked, Che Hao said loudly: "Why is he doing this?

He is your biological father, and tigers cannot eat their own children.

Besides, if you get rid of the young master, the Yan Kingdom you just won will inevitably change.

Kang The country will also fall into chaos.

Could it be that he is old and confused?"

I thought to myself: "I am not the biological flesh and blood of Emperor Xin De at all.

Now that he knows this fact, it is reasonable to deal with me.

Once a person is blinded by hatred, any consequences can be ignored.

Now Xin De The Kaiser is probably like that."

Jiao Xin said: "Since he has the intention to kill His Highness the Crown Prince, we must not sit back and wait for him to do it."

Yihu said: "Yes, let's just rush into the palace and chop off that old boy's head.

Then my brother-in-law will naturally become the emperor of Dakang."

"Shut up," I said angrily.

Although what this bastard said made sense, it made me a little embarrassed to shout like this in front of everyone.

After all, in the eyes of outsiders, Emperor Xinde was my father.

Chen Zisu coughed slightly and said: "You all go out, the young master and I have a few words to talk alone":
