(Two hundred and fourteen) Withdrawal of the feudal vassal
Signs that the emperor was preparing to withdraw from the feudal vassal were already evident when certain princes were restricted from moving.
However, King Xian had been on guard for a long time, so he excused himself to be ill and left the capital secretly.
It's night in Youzhou. Prince Xian's Mansion.
King Xian looked at the embarrassment of the feudal kings with tears streaming down their faces, and thought it was a very ironic picture.
Some said that the ministers had rebelled, some said that the mansion had been sealed, some said that the hidden silver had been confiscated... In short, the princes all knew that now was a critical moment.
But they had no other option, so the simplest, most direct and effective way they could think of was to defect to King Xian.
With the naive idea that maybe King Xian could save their lives and bring down the emperor.
"King Xian, for the sake of everyone, you are the lord of the vassal, so you should save everyone."
Although it was embarrassing to beg the young King Xian like this, the feudal king who spoke no longer cared about whether he should maintain the dignity of the elder. In order to survive, they could only unite.
"Yes, now everyone is a grasshopper on a rope and cannot sit still and wait for death!"
"Either the emperor is dead or we are waiting for death! The situation is now too late for us!"
The vassal princes were talking to each other in a flurry of words, which made King Xian feel a headache.
Xian Wang Che rubbed his swollen temples and responded: "My princes, please be patient. The emperor only said that he wanted to withdraw the vassal vassal, and did not say that he wanted everyone's heads and salaries. It didn't have to be a life-and-death situation, right?
"
King Xian held his head and sat on the main seat, his voice was majestic and magnetic. His heart was so peaceful and he was not affected by the anxious mood of the feudal kings.
Like a quiet little flower in a noisy market.
After hearing King Xian's words, the other feudal kings didn't think so.
"Although the annual salary is still there, the privileges and honors are gone. Isn't it infuriating that this prince cannot become a prince?"
"That's right! The first step is to cut off the honorary ceremony, the second step is to cut off the amnesty, and the third step is to cut off the last year's salary. Then isn't it going to take your and my head?"
"King Xian, you are still young, so you are confused! The emperor just wants to catch us all!"
King Xian stood up and bowed.
"Xiao Wang is indeed not as old as the princes. Xiao Wang does not want to raise a flag of rebellion because of this. We will discuss this matter later. The princes have been tired from the journey, and Xiao Wang has prepared for you to take the wind and wash away the dust. The princes will take a rest first.
Let me think about it."
After King Xian dismissed the feudal kings, he looked at the hall, sighed heavily, and then walked out of the house.
At this moment, the moonlight is bright and clear.
Suddenly, a cloak was wrapped around him.
"Since last night, the cold air has moved northward, and the night is still a bit cold. Don't catch a cold, Your Majesty."
"It's you."
Needless to say, King Xian also knew who the visitor was. His cold hand was being held gently, and the warmth from his palm dispelled the coldness.
"Is the prince worried about the affairs of the feudal princes?"
King Xian smiled.
"Actually, whether those princes live or die is not within my obligations. It was expected that they would come to me when they sensed something was wrong."
"Is the prince lamenting?"
"There is nothing to sigh about. I think that I started to fight on the battlefield when I was fifteen years old. For more than ten years now, I have made great achievements for the country and the country. I am worthy of my ancestors and martyrs. I also know that my life will be at stake one day because of my great achievements.
The situation is precarious. Therefore, I pretend to be sensual and have fun with flowers in order to confuse the public. I can spend these days peacefully. You said, if I plead guilty, support the withdrawal of the vassal, and hand over military power, the emperor will spare me.
Does the king have a life?"
When discussing his situation, King Xian's tone could not be calmer.
Gao Yanzong even held King Xian's hand tightly.
"Does the prince want to release the military power?"
"Isn't it okay?"
"If my subordinate is the emperor, I can let the other vassal princes go, but I will never let the prince live in the world."
King Xian smiled helplessly.
"If you want me to die, I have to die. If the emperor wants to withdraw from the feudal vassal, it is most likely because of me. I know this. I know it better than anyone else." As he said this, King Xian turned around.
He threw himself into the arms of the person behind him and said quietly, "I obviously don't want to rebel, nor do I want to compete with him for the world. I just want to live quietly in this borderland of Youzhou, but he doesn't get rid of me as a future trouble."
I vow not to give up.”
"Yes, I understand."
As he spoke, Gao Yanzong hugged the person in his arms tightly, his black hair hanging down, even more shining in the moonlight.
"He is truly a ruthless emperor."
"The most ruthless emperor's family. However, no matter what choice Kyouye makes, I will accompany you until the end. I will always be by your side."
Gao Yanzong's words were full of tenderness. He gently stroked King Xian's silky hair. Although he couldn't see what King Xian's expression was under the mask, he could feel the tight hold of the person in his arms.
he.
"Do life and death depend on each other?"
"Life and death depend on each other."
King Xian took off his mask, and his beautiful eyes showed a soft light. For a moment, Gao Yanzong was disappointed. His heart was bewitched.
"Yanzong, you are the only one who will not betray me."
"I will not betray my heart, and Kyoya, you are my world."
They stared at each other, with only each other in their eyes.
King Xian smiled, and the smile on his beautiful face was so charming. He put his arms around Gao Yanzong's neck and offered him his first kiss.
Under the moonlight, they exchanged life and death vows with each other. Their fingers were intertwined and their lips and tongues were entangled.
You and I depend on each other for life and death, and we will never abandon or leave you.
"I will give myself to you, whether it is my future life or my heart, I will give it all to you. You have no choice to die with me, Yanzong."
Gao Yanzong gently touched that beautiful face, his eyes were as gentle as water, and he looked at him with such love and affection.
"The world without you is just a hell full of despair to me. Until the end, I can still be of some use to you, which is my greatest comfort. How can a man be greedy for life and afraid of death?"
"The contract between life and death is broad..."
"Talk to Zicheng."
At a critical moment of life and death, being connected with each other can be regarded as joy in the twilight. Fate will not favor you and me.
The cruel future had already been revealed, decided the moment he mounted his war horse.
He is not a mediocre person, so King Xian's vigorous life will surely come to an end like this.
If he has mediocre qualifications and indulges in sensuality, he can still enjoy wealth and glory, just like that King Yan.
However, he is like a dragon or a phoenix among people, with lofty aspirations and lofty sentiments. He is determined to make great achievements and spend his youth to the fullest.
In the rose-colored tent, green hair is flowing, eyes are blurred, hands are clenched, and hearts are close to each other.
