The sound of firecrackers marks the end of the year, and the spring breeze brings warmth to Tusu.

In a small cubicle in the East Nuan Pavilion of Longqing Hall, the word "Mingchuang" hangs high on the red wall. The fragrance of purple-gold osmanthus and sandalwood lingers in the air.

Emperor Jing personally lit the exquisite and slender red candle on the long jade candlestick, and then slowly poured Tusu wine into the Jinou Yonggu cup.

"In the 30th year of Yonghe, open the window! Start writing!"

Eunuch Feng shook off the dust in his hand, and for the first time used his brightest and most resonant coloratura to shout out the sound that everyone was looking forward to opening the New Year.

Emperor Jing picked up the evergreen pen, carefully pinched the holder of the pen, which was made of emerald jade, and lightly smoked the silver tip of the pen on the auspicious furnace. He opened the vermilion pen first, and then the black ink pen.

Emperor Jing smiled and was as high-spirited as when he first ascended the throne, scolding Fang Qiu for writing the entire New Year's message.

Among the eloquent words, most of them are common auspicious words such as "good weather, good luck and longevity, peace and prosperity for the country and the people".

Here, there are a few words that are different from previous years and are particularly eye-catching, that is:

"Recover the rivers and mountains, and the world will be at peace."

Just eight words, full of domineering power. Between the lines, the pen is as sharp as a sword, vividly displayed on the paper, showing the ambition of the leader of a great country.

After Emperor Jing finished writing, he put down his writing brush leisurely and confidently, and drank all the Tusu wine in the Jinou Yonggu cup.

"Kill the ghost spirit and revive the human soul! In thirty years of eternal peace, there will be no disease or disaster, the rivers will be clear and the sea will be clean, and the world will be at peace!"

Feng Xianfu squeezed his throat and shouted again with all his strength.

The phrase "Peace in the world" dragged out a long and high-pitched ending, like a spring oriole announcing the good news, flying out of the bright window of the East Nuan Pavilion of Longqing Palace and echoing over the imperial city.

In accordance with the usual practice, the palace officials made this New Year's blessing speech of the emperor's 30th year of Yonghe known to the world.

Later, Emperor Jing opened the New Year's almanac submitted by the Ministry of Rites, which meant that the emperor had given time and saved the year for all people in the world.

The opening ceremony of the bright window on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year ended successfully.

According to the practice in previous years, Emperor Jing would officially start reviewing the memorials after lunch.

This year was a surprising exception. After Emperor Jing's opening ceremony in the open window, he began to deal with the hill of paper and ink in front of the Long Case, and began to review it diligently and conscientiously.

Feng Xianfu only felt that Emperor Jing's face was getting darker and darker, and his eyebrows had turned from a slight frown to a small knot that could not be wiped away.

He had no choice but to stand aside and carefully study the ink, not even daring to express his anger.

.

Feng Xianfu secretly thought in his heart that he probably knew that it was the crown prince and Prince Xuan who used the Jiang family's murder case to stir up trouble again.

However, I don't know which unlucky guy who fought for them touched Emperor Jing's reverse scale on the first day of the New Year, and saw the thunder and anger about to come out.

"Where's my ink pen? Bring it!" Emperor Jing shouted angrily and asked.

Feng Xianfu respectfully presented the ink pen to him with both hands, but he did not dare to look sideways.

Over the years, he has been able to rise from a young father-in-law all the way up within the palace, relying on his ability to observe what is happening and take advantage of the situation.

Everyone thought that it would be wise to choose a successor as early as possible, but they didn't know that what Emperor Jing was most taboo about was the party's fight for the heir.

Accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. If he hadn't walked on thin ice and never favored any side, he would have been unable to win Emperor Jing's favor.

Recently, the former Grand Chamberlain passed away due to illness, and before he left, he recommended him to Emperor Jing as his successor. At present, Feng Xianfu is already a celebrity in the imperial court and is the new steward.

I saw Emperor Jing draw several big circles and big crosses on the memorial with a big stroke of his pen, and then he threw the memorial on the case with all his strength, his face turned livid.

Feng Xianfu hurriedly signaled to the little eunuch at the door. The little eunuch gingerly offered him a cup of Gongju Pu'er tea.

Feng Xianfu put on a smile, lowered his eyebrows and consoled him:

"Your Majesty, your dragon body is important, but don't let your anger break down. This is the top-quality tribute chrysanthemum Pu'er tea presented from the south. It is best for clearing the liver, eliminating fire and smoothing the qi. Please use it slowly."

Emperor Jing took a quick glance, raised his chin, and continued to open another memorial.

As soon as I opened it, it was like a burning fire cooking oil, and I was so angry that I smashed the memorial to the ground!

Then, he took advantage of the situation and picked up the cup of chrysanthemum Pu'er tea offered by Gangfeng, and suddenly threw it on the ground again!

Everyone in the room was shocked and turned pale. They fell to the ground, kowtowed and apologized profusely.

"Feng Xianfu! Pass on my will and summon the prince! Go now!"

Emperor Jing coughed several times in anger, his chest rising and falling.

"Cha!" Feng Xianfu quickly responded.

As he stood up, he caught a glimpse of the memorial that had been smashed to the ground out of the corner of his eye. The words "Caobang" and other words were prominently highlighted in the circles drawn in red pen.

Feng Xianfu knew this well, but he was still unavoidably frightened. He quickly stepped back and hurried to Chonghua Palace, the prince's residence.

When they arrived at Chonghua Palace, they were told that the prince was not in the palace.

"On the first day of the Lunar New Year, His Royal Highness is not in the East Palace, where else can he go?"

Feng Xianfu looked majestic and solemn.

The little eunuch knelt on the ground for a long time and did not dare to raise his head to answer.

"You said not within the palace. Could it be that it is not within the palace? You don't mean the Chonghua Palace!"

Feng Xianfu was stunned when he heard this.

The little eunuch who knelt on the ground in Chonghua Palace nodded silently.

Feng Xianfu really had two heads at the moment, and his head was spinning a little.

According to the Dajing ancestral system, people in the palace should stay in the palace on the first day of the new year and be diligent and thrifty for a day to repay heaven's kindness, respect the ancestors' virtues, and comfort the subjects.

However, as the crown prince of Dajing Kingdom, he actually took the lead in not abiding by the rules set by his ancestors, went beyond the ancestral system, and left the palace in a hurry on the first day of the new year!

On weekdays, relying on the emperor's grace, he is so powerful that one person is inferior to ten thousand people. Sometimes he is lazy and careless, and forgets it because of his own impulse! But today is at this critical moment again!

"The Emperor has a decree! Now, the Crown Prince must be summoned to see him immediately! Why don't you hurry up and summon him! Where did His Highness the Crown Prince go out of the palace? What's the emergency? He has to drive out in person on the first day of the new year?"

Feng Xianfuer said, looking at the little eunuch with dignity.

But the little eunuch pressed his lips tightly and refused to answer.

"Tell me! If you recruit me from the truth, I will help you find another job from now on. Even if you are the prince, you will not be able to resist the emperor's decree. You will be fine from now on. If you don't obey, the power of God will be very angry. I'm afraid you will die today.

There is no way to escape death!"

Feng Xianfu used both kindness and power, threats and persuasion.

"I obey the order, obey the order! The imperial edict is above me! I dare not disobey! Your Highness, he is, he is leaving the palace to find Prime Minister Tang!"

The little eunuch finally relaxed and confessed.

Yesterday at the family dinner on New Year's Eve, the prince wanted to strike first, but he had no opponent and missed a move.

Later, Emperor Jing announced that he would create a seal for Lu Chengfeng on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year.

The Sacred Heart is difficult to predict, but everyone loves to speculate.

The prince had sensed the turbulent crisis, so he panicked and secretly risked the consequences of breaking taboos and violating the rules. He quietly left the palace to find the think tank and move reinforcements!
