Following.A day has passed, the eighth prince has spent a night in the Zongren Mansion, this night the eight princes have not fallen asleep, perhaps because they have never fallen asleep, the eighth prince feels that this night is extraordinarily long.It was also this night that made the eighth prince even more determined to rebel.He is the Yan King of the Western Liang Kingdom, holding heavy troops and defending the Western Liang Kingdom against foreign enemies, which can be said to have made a lot of contributions, but he never thought that one day he would be locked up in the Zongren Mansion in such an embarrassment, which made the Eighth Prince's heart even more angry.At the same time, Prime Minister Liu Cheng had already entered the palace and came to the emperor.In the Zhengde Palace, Prime Minister Liu looked at the emperor sitting on the dragon chair in a bright yellow dragon robe and said, "Weichen has seen the emperor. ”"Liu Aiqing, you're here."
The emperor was writing the holy decree in person, looked up at Prime Minister Liu and continued to bow his head to write."
Yes."
The last word of the emperor fell, and he picked up the jade seal on the side and covered it on the holy decree, and after doing these few actions, the emperor looked up at Prime Minister Liu Cheng and said: "Liu Aiqing, the holy decree of the death of the eighth prince has been approved, when do you think it is better to promulgate this news?"
”"The news in the palace spreads the fastest, as long as this holy decree of death arrives at the Zongren Mansion, the entire palace will know about it."
Prime Minister Liu Cheng stood in the center of the main hall and said.The emperor nodded slightly, thinking that what Prime Minister Liu Cheng said was also somewhat reasonable.The emperor glanced down at the holy decree, as if he was making some major decision: "The holy decree has been prepared, Prime Minister Liu, how about you go to the Zongren Mansion to read the holy decree?"
”"Wechen's purpose."
Prime Minister Liu immediately responded to this errand.Prime Minister Liu Cheng has always been at odds with the Eighth Prince, and the two often compete secretly in private, and now they have finally sent the Eighth Prince to the prison, and Prime Minister Liu Cheng wants to go in person to see if the Eighth Prince knows whether this news can still be as proud as usual.I don't know what kind of expression the eighth prince will have when he sees this holy decree, I'm afraid he will be extremely shocked.The eighth prince must have never imagined that the emperor would issue such a holy decree, after all, in the heart of the eighth prince, the emperor has always been afraid of him, how could he make such a decision at this time.Prime Minister Liu put away the holy decree and went to the Zongren Mansion with thoughts in his heart."
Prime Minister Liu!"
When they arrived at the gate of the Zongren Mansion, the guards guarding the door recognized Prime Minister Liu Cheng and hurriedly saluted Prime Minister Liu."
On the order of the emperor, I came to see the eighth prince to read the holy decree."
Prime Minister Liu held the golden holy decree in his right hand and looked at the guards of the Zongren Mansion.The golden holy will was particularly dazzling in Prime Minister Liu's hands, and the guards guarding the door could see it at a glance.The guard hurriedly moved a step away to make way of the position, and forcefully stretched out his right hand to make a gesture of please: "Prime Minister Liu Cheng, please." ”Prime Minister Liu Cheng and Sansheng entered the Zongren Mansion together, this is not the first time that Prime Minister Liu Cheng has come to the Zongren Mansion, so he found the location of the Eighth Prince.The Eighth Prince was locked up in the fourth prison of the Zongren Mansion, and he could see the Eighth Prince after walking into the Zongren Mansion for a few steps.The lights in the Zongren Mansion were dim, and it was not until he walked to the cell of the Eighth Prince, that Prime Minister Liu Cheng saw the existence of the Eighth Prince.I saw the eighth prince lying on the ground, his brocade robe was already very dirty, and when Prime Minister Liu looked at the eighth prince, the eighth prince also replied with the same look.Glancing at Prime Minister Liu, the eighth prince turned his back to him with disdain, obviously not wanting to deal with Prime Minister Liu.Seeing the actions of the Eighth Prince, Prime Minister Liu Cheng was not annoyed, but shouted in a normal tone: "Eighth Prince." ”The eighth prince was lying on the ground on his side, it was Prime Minister Liu Cheng who was facing away, and when he heard Prime Minister Liu's voice, the eighth prince still did not move at all and ignored it."
It doesn't matter if the eighth prince doesn't want to ignore me, but the emperor's holy decree is for the eighth prince to accept."
Prime Minister Liu took out a bright holy decree.As soon as he heard the holy decree, the eighth prince sat up, and then looked at Prime Minister Liu, only to find that Prime Minister Liu was holding a holy decree in his hand, so he glanced at Prime Minister Liu casually, but he never found that he still had this thing in his hand.Looking at the holy decree that had not yet been read, the eighth prince couldn't help but think, how could the emperor deliberately send the holy decree at this time, and what was written in this holy decree?
The Eighth Prince looked at this holy decree in reverie, but Prime Minister Liu Cheng said: "The Eighth Prince listens to the decree." ”The eighth prince glanced at Prime Minister Liu Cheng with a pair of eagle eyes, hesitated for a moment, and the eighth prince finally knelt on the ground."
King Yan has a vicious mind, cruelty to the emperor's heir and does not repent, and now there are all the human and material evidence, so King Yan is sentenced to be beheaded at noon tomorrow to set an example."
Prime Minister Liu's voice was not sonorous and powerful, but it was very calm, and every word of this hit the heart of the eighth prince.After listening to the holy decree, the eighth prince could no longer calm down, looked at Prime Minister Liu Cheng with shock, and said in disbelief: "This is the emperor's own holy decree?"
”"Of course."
Prime Minister Liu put away the holy decree that had been read out."
This king doesn't believe it!
This king is a prince, how can the emperor deal with me like this!
”The eighth prince was in disbelief.Prime Minister Liu Cheng threw the collected holy decree to the eighth prince, and said with contempt and disdain: "This is the holy decree of the emperor himself, if the eighth prince doesn't believe it, take a good look." ”The eighth prince hurriedly picked up the golden holy decree on the ground, immediately unfolded it to see the contents, read the content again, and saw the jade seal on it before he realized that this was indeed the emperor's holy decree, not used by Prime Minister Liu to stimulate him.The Eighth Prince held the holy decree in his hand, his face was full of shock, almost speechless with shock.Seeing the expression of the Eighth Prince, Prime Minister Liu Cheng said coldly: "The expression of the Eighth Prince did not expect that the emperor would issue such a holy decree, right?"
”The eighth prince clenched his fingers tightly, eager to cinch this wind holy decree with his hands.glanced up at Prime Minister Liu, his eyes full of anger."
The Eighth Prince doesn't have to look at me like this, now that the Holy Decree has been issued, the Eighth Prince will wait for the execution."
Prime Minister Liu turned around and lifted the food box in Sansheng's hand: "Now that you are in prison, you can't have a wife and children to send you off, you and I have a colleague, and I will send you well." ”Prime Minister Liu put the food box in front of the prison door, looking at the food box, the eighth prince was even more angry in his heart, and with a big hand, he smashed the food box on the ground."
Eighth Prince, is this angry?"
Prime Minister Liu Cheng said deliberately: "The eighth prince didn't expect the emperor to issue such a holy decree, right?"
I'm afraid that in the heart of the Eighth Prince, the Eighth Prince's hand is in charge of the military, and the emperor will not dare to dispose of you easily, but I can tell the Eighth Prince, you are wrong this time, and you can't escape this time. ”Prime Minister Liu Cheng's words are true, and he did hit the mind of the eighth prince.The eighth prince thought of various decisions that the emperor would deal with him in prison, but he was the only one who did not expect that the emperor would directly execute himself.Under Prime Minister Liu's ridicule and ridicule, the anger in the heart of the eighth prince is still growing.()
