Zong Xu's gaze fell on Su Qi, paused for a moment, and bowed slightly.Su Qi waited for such a while and was already hopeless, and when he saw Zong Xu nodding, he hurriedly bowed his hand: "Thank you, Your Highness." ”However, Luo Sheng quietly slipped to Su Qi's side, looking curious, "Master Su knows that girl?"
”"She once saved my life, Su Mouruo sat back and watched, and felt ashamed."
Luo Sheng saw him frowning and extremely entangled, "Don't worry, Your Highness, he didn't think that he would ask for the life of His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince here." ”"It's His Highness's kindness."
Luo Sheng smiled and retreated.Two fists are no match for four hands, and when he speaks, the scene in front of him has been controlled.Zong Sheng was tied with his hands, and before he could even say a word to Zong Xu, he was stuffed into a carriage parked on the side of the road.The only one left standing was the girl with the black veil.Su Qi looked at Xingluo, hesitated but didn't step forward.The girl glanced at Zong Sheng, who was looking out of the carriage with the curtain, and said coldly: "Sixth prince, the transaction between you and me has ended, take care." ”After speaking, he jumped into the branches, and he had already jumped on the branches in a few ups and downs.Luo Sheng moved to chase after him, but was stopped by Zong Xu raising his hand, "No need to chase." ”After speaking, he glanced at Su Qi again, "Someone handed it over to you, check it out." ”This was originally what he wanted to do, and when Su Qi heard this, he hurriedly replied: "Yes, Your Highness." ”The carriage began to move forward, and Zong Sheng finally couldn't help shouting at the figure on horseback in front of him: "Lao Jiu, where are you going to take me?"
”"Go back to the palace."
Just two simple words made Zong Sheng's face turn white by the way."
You're so calculating!"
It's good if you really kill him here with a sword, it's a hundred.But if this matter is stabbed in front of his father, just one charge of murdering the prince of this dynasty, not only him, but even his mother and concubine, and even his foreign family Changshun Houfu, will have to go around without eating.Zong Xu glanced back at him, and at Shang Zong Sheng's resentful eyes, he paused and said, "Zong Sheng, you are not qualified to hate me. ”Zong Sheng's face turned pale, pursed his lips, and retracted his head that poked out of the carriage.After the carriage arrived at the city gate, the subordinates who escorted the masked man had left quietly, and only Zong Xu and Zong Sheng sitting in the carriage were left at the city gate.After seeing those ordinary people disappearing one by one, Zong Sheng couldn't help but feel frightened, and at the same time, he couldn't stop feeling remorse and fear in his heart.He thought that he had done a good job in this Shangjing City, but he also failed to find the slightest trace of Zong Xu's subordinates.He looked down on others and on himself.Don't complain if you lose.The carriage passed through the outer city into the inner city and then to the royal palace.Before entering the palace gate, Zong Xu dismounted, and Luo Sheng and Wei Yun helped Zong Sheng off the carriage one after the other.The guards guarding the palace gate saluted with fists towards His Royal Highness King Yue and His Royal Highness the Six Princes who came in, and when they straightened up, they noticed that the clothes of the six princes walking behind were scattered, and their hands were still tied, but even if they were surprised in their hearts, they could only maintain their faces and open the palace door.When the group entered, he made eye contact with his companion.It feels like something big is going to happen.Since the edict of abdication was made, the strength in Emperor Mingde's heart that did not admit defeat was suddenly relaxed.Fortunately, he has not yet stepped on the high and low in this palace, he has nothing to do and is served by good food and drink, and he has gradually gained strength in his body, and he can go to the imperial garden when he feels bored.It's just that my heart is still not happy.He happened to be admiring the flowers in the imperial garden, and when he heard the news from the guards that King Yue and the six princes were coming, he frowned or nodded, "Let them come over." ”After Zong Xu came over, he saw Emperor Mingde, who was half-lying down leisurely admiring the flowers, and bowed down, "I've seen my father." ”Zong Sheng's hands were tied, and Emperor Mingde didn't pay attention to it for a while when he saluted, and when he found out, no one looked at Zong Xu first: "King Yue, what's going on?"
”"Back to my father," Zong Xu glanced back at Zong Sheng, "Erchen thinks that the sixth brother still needs to tell you about this matter personally." ”Emperor Mingde already had a bad premonition in his heart, and after sitting up straight, he glared at Zong Xu first, and then looked at Zong Sheng who was hanging his head, "Sixth, you say." ”Zong Sheng: "How do you want him to say it?"
personally admitted that he had murdered the prince, and even wanted to kill the king of Yue and ascend to the throne himself?
He knew his father's ruthlessness very well, and he was afraid that he would not be able to see the sun tomorrow.Thinking of this, Zong Sheng bent his knees, and directly knelt on the bluestone road where he was standing at his feet, "Erchen is guilty." ”Emperor Mingde raised his hand to smooth his heart, and his face swelled, "What happened?"
What about the Prince?
Didn't you all go to Mrs.
Jiang's birthday banquet today, what are you going to do when you go back to the palace to see me at this time?
”"1510, tell me about it!"
Seeing Zong Sheng, who gritted his teeth and made up his mind not to say anything, Zong Xu nodded lightly at Wei Xuan, who was standing beside him."
Back to Your Majesty, today at the birthday banquet, the prince ambushed a group of dead soldiers around the birthday hall in advance, and suddenly attacked His Royal Highness the King of Yue, the six princes pretended to be drunk, and stabbed His Royal Highness the Prince with a sword while the prince was unprepared, and after solving the dead soldiers of His Royal Highness the Prince, he was captured on the way to hunt down His Royal Highness the King of Yue."
After Emperor Mingde heard this, the whole person did not stand firmly, staggered back a few steps and almost fell to the ground, but he was still loyal and hurriedly supported the person, and after seeing Emperor Mingde's somewhat purple face, he hurriedly shouted: "Quick, call the imperial doctor." ”Zong Sheng subconsciously took a few steps forward, looked at Emperor Mingde, and was horrified, "Father, Father." ”Emperor Mingde pointed at Zong Sheng with a trembling finger and took a breath, "Don't, don't call me my father."
You rebel!
”Zong Sheng's mind was stunned, and he looked up at Zong Xu, who was still standing in place and hadn't moved a step from beginning to end, and even his expression was as indifferent as before, "Father, all this was designed by Zong Xu."
He feigned weakness at the birthday banquet, sat back and watched his retainers and the prince kill each other, and set up an ambush on the road in order to catch us all.Erchen, Erchen is also a last resort!
”Emperor Mingde had a ho in his throat for a while, but he couldn't speak.Seeing that the people were about to roll their eyes, the imperial doctor finally rushed over with the medicine box.The crowd moved to the hall again.When Emperor Mingde opened his eyes again, it was already dark outside, he turned his head, and saw Zong Xu sitting not far from the bed and Zong Sheng, who was still kneeling in front of the bed, almost rolled his eyes and fainted."
You both!"
Zong Xu heard the voice and stood up, "Father, the crown prince is awake." ”Emperor Mingde was stunned for a moment, sat up and asked, "Is the injury serious?"
”Zong Xu glanced at Zong Sheng, who was kneeling on the ground, paused, and when Emperor Mingde couldn't help but mention it, he replied: "The imperial doctor diagnosed, that sword pierced through the lumbar vertebrae, although his life was fine, but I am afraid that he will not be able to get up and walk in the future." ”When this sentence fell, the needles in the huge hall could be heard.Emperor Mingde raised his head to look at the gorgeous floral carvings on the top of his head, and spit out a few words vaguely in his mouth, "Retribution!"
”He said this very softly, and he didn't even hear the loyalty who was supporting him next to him clearly.But a few people could see it with the naked eye, and after Zong Xu finished talking about the prince's injury, Emperor Mingde's face visibly decayed a little more.Zong Xu pressed down on the trace of doubt in his heart, "It's getting late, so the sons won't bother their father." ”Emperor Mingde didn't know if he heard it or not, and he didn't react for a long time, Zong Xu saw this, turned around and led Luo Sheng away.Zong Xu left, Zong Sheng, who was kneeling, looked at the bed and then looked outside the hall, and quietly moved his knees that were sore and tingling from kneeling, and just knelt again, a bowl with half a bowl of decoction and medicine smashed towards him.Zong Sheng only felt his brain rumble, and a sticky liquid flowed down his temples, through the corners of his eyes and then to the corners of his mouth.He licked the corners of his mouth, and a salty smell permeated the tip of his tongue.Drops of blood dripped onto the gilded floor tiles, and after a while, I felt a wave of dizziness."
Your Majesty," Duan Zhong was the first to notice Zong Sheng's abnormality, "His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince is bleeding from his forehead. ”"He's damned!
Dare to kill each other, be loyal, and give me a will, I don't have such a ruthless son. ”Zong Sheng listened to the words coming from the top of his head, and looked at the blood that had gathered into a pool in front of him, Rao was at this time, and couldn't help but pull his lips and smile sarcastically.Either Caesar or nothing!
Luo Sheng followed Zong Xu out of the main hall and was still a little uneasy, "Your Highness, let's just leave the six princes in the palace like this, what if Your Majesty picks it up again this time and puts it down gently?"
”Zong Xu shook his head firmly, "No." ”"Why, Your Highness?""
The most painful thing for my father is the crown prince."
Zong Xu said calmly, "Wait for tomorrow, my father's judgment will have a result." ”The facts were not as he expected.At the court meeting the next day, Emperor Mingde, who had not been to court for several days, sat on the dragon chair again.First commanded the faithful to issue a holy decree.The content of the decree silenced the ministers in the court.The sixth son of the emperor, Zong Sheng, assassinated the crown prince, degraded the six princes as concubines, and deprived Changshun of the title of marquis.Even the imperial concubines in the harem were beaten into the cold palace early in the morning.This is the fastest decree issued by Emperor Mingde in the past few years.There were still many ministers in the court who went to the birthday banquet yesterday to experience the chaotic situation, and as soon as they heard this holy decree, they guessed that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must have been injured a lot this time.I don't blame His Majesty for being angry.Thinking of this, they couldn't help but look at the figure standing at the front.was assassinated by the joint calculation of the crown prince and the six princes, and still stood unscathed on top of this hall.This His Royal Highness the King of Yue is even more unfathomable than they guessed.The first decree of the six princes was issued, and the latter one was to change the crown prince to the idle king, and to change the Yue Wang Zongxu to the crown prince.With the previous holy decree as the foundation, everyone found that they were not much shocked by the latter holy decree.By the time Emperor Mingde issued an edict of abdication in the court three days later, the ministers were able to accept it calmly.That's for later.Speaking of the Lin Mansion.The ministers at the birthday banquet went home one after another, and the Lin family, who had not been able to wait for Lin Deyong to return to his house, finally waited for his body the next day.The entire Lin Mansion was suddenly in chaos.Just when everyone in the Lin Mansion was left without a master, Su Qi brought an oracle to find out who was the enemy of Lin Deyong and knocked on the door of the Lin Mansion.
