Five days passed by in a flash, and no matter how much turmoil there was secretly in Beijing, or how many spies from Northern Qi and Xihu made private moves, everything was calm on the surface, without a single discordant sound.
However, things about Feng Yao are spreading more and more in Yue Opera, and there are various rumors in Beijing. Some believe that Feng Yao is a member of the Feng family, while others do not believe it. They say that Feng Yao's coming to Daqin to recognize his relatives is Xihu's conspiracy...
Rumors of conspiracy theories have been spreading very fiercely these days, and many people say they have noses and eyes. Qin Jiyan knew at a glance that there must be someone behind this matter.
As for the people pushing conspiracy theory rumors?
Qin Jiyan had no intention of investigating at all. There were just a few people around him, so he could just go back and settle the accounts one by one. As for the evidence?
He is not a government official, so he has to rely on evidence to judge guilt. He said that the other party was right as long as he did what he said. It doesn't matter whether there is evidence or not.
As for the suspicions of the ministers in the court? Qin Jiyan ignored them all.
If you have any questions, let's wait until Feng Yao finishes the wedding. It's a little early to start trouble with those people now.
Feng Yao's status was unusual. The bone examination between him and Feng Yunji was a major event, and the court attached great importance to it. After determining the date for the coffin opening, Feng Chief Assistant discussed with the cabinet ministers the officials who would go to the site to witness the bone examination that day.
.
In order to show the importance he attached to Feng Yao, Feng Shoufu decided to come in person, accompanied by the Minister of Rites, and several military generals. The emperor also sent his confidant eunuchs there, and the three parties witnessed it together to prevent fraud.
Everyone met together in the palace. There were still two hours before noon. Feng Shoufu and others were preparing to set off. However, as soon as they reached the entrance of the palace, they found that the ceremony guard was wrong. They seemed to see a bright yellow umbrella cover.
"Your Majesty is leaving?" Feng Shoufu's voice rose involuntarily.
What is the emperor doing? Doesn't he know that today is dangerous?
As an emperor, his safety is related to the country and the country. Knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, going to the tiger mountains is not courageous, but stupid, okay?
Feng Shoufu's face turned black with anger, but before he could step forward to persuade Qin Jiyan to return to the palace, the eunuch in charge beside Qin Jiyan ran over and said, "My lords, the emperor has decided to go to the city at the last moment.
Check it out for yourself."
This was a notification, not a question. Feng Shoufang knew that even if he came forward to persuade him now, it would be useless because the emperor would not listen.
Helpless, Feng Shoufu had no choice but to say, "The Emperor is going to go outside the city. Can you arrange for escorts to accompany you? Can you deploy a large army to protect you outside the city?" Today's situation is unusual. If there is usually a forbidden army for protection, it will be fine, but today?
Who can guarantee that when the people of Xihu and Northern Qi receive the news that Qin Jiyan has also left the city, they will be determined to wipe out everything and assassinate the emperor.
You know, their emperor has no heir yet. If something happens at this time, the Qin Dynasty will be in chaos!
"The emperor has temporarily decided to go there with only the imperial troops. The emperor said, please hurry up, sir. It is getting late and it will delay the auspicious time. You are the only one asking." The eunuch in charge repeated Qin Jiyan's words bravely.
Yes, their emperor is so willful. He decided to leave the city at a moment's notice, which frightened the ministers. He later scolded them for causing trouble. But...
Who calls someone an emperor? So what if he is willful?
The eunuch in charge saw that Feng Shoufu's face was not good-looking, and before Feng Shoufu could speak, he hurriedly bowed and left: "Sir Shofu, your Majesty is still waiting for a servant to serve you. I have to leave first."
He didn't want to listen to Lord Feng's words here. You must know that the status of the eunuchs in the palace is far less than before, and their emperor will not manipulate the people around him like he did when the Supreme Emperor was in power.
Seeing the old eunuch running so fast, Feng Shoufu was extremely depressed. Knowing that it was useless for him to go to Qin Jiyan now, he had to discuss with the generals around him to transfer people to Jingxiao Camp.
The adults who can go outside the city to witness Feng Yao's marriage confirmation by dripping bones are definitely not stupid. Even if everyone didn't say anything, they all know that today's marriage confirmation by dripping bones is actually sending out bait to attract the fish.
Originally, they only threw out Feng Yao as bait, but now that Qin Jiyan went outside the city in person, the nature of the situation was different. Since it was related to Qin Jiyan's safety, they had to be careful and cautious.
Several generals acted separately, and Feng Shoufu and others accompanied the king and followed Qin Jiyan's guard of honor out of the city.
When Qin Jiyan went out, the Forbidden Army naturally cleared the way in advance. After seeing the Forbidden Army clearing the way, the people on the street curiously crowded on both sides to watch the excitement. When they saw the bright yellow umbrella cover appear, even if they could not see what was inside
People also knelt down one by one and shouted long live...
Gu Qiancheng and Feng Sijin were sitting in a teahouse on the street. When they saw Qin Jiyan's Long Chu coming out of the palace gate, they both frowned at the same time.
"Your Majesty...it's too risky." Feng Sijin sighed softly.
Feng Sijin knew that Qin Jiyan's kung fu was outstanding, but he was the emperor now, so using himself as bait was too childish.
Although Gu Qiancheng thought so too, she had to save face for Qin Jiyan in front of outsiders.
Gu Qiancheng held the tea cup and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, he is used to a life of adventure and struggle. If he is suddenly detained in the palace, it is inevitable that he will be dissatisfied. It is normal to occasionally do things that are inconsistent with his status." Therefore, as a courtier,
Yes, we must understand the emperor's hard work.
"Qiancheng, he is the emperor. The emperor represents the supreme imperial power, which also means that he has to shoulder responsibilities that ordinary people cannot bear." Feng Sijin smiled gently and considerately, but his words were not polite at all.
"Sijin, the emperor is also a human being." Gu Qiancheng said this, feeling a little unsure.
Well, she admitted that a person who is an emperor should not be so willful.
"Feng Sijin knew that Gu Qiancheng was just being tough, so he smiled and said nothing more.
He knew that Gu Qiancheng understood that in the future... with Gu Qiancheng persuading Qin Jiyan, they ministers would be able to feel more relaxed.
He would not do anything like admonishing him to death. The emperor is not a child. He has fulfilled his duty as a minister by advising him. No matter how much he tries to persuade the emperor, he will not listen...
"Long live the Emperor, long live the Emperor!"
Soon, Qin Jiyan's driver came to where Gu Qiancheng and Feng Sijin were. The two stopped talking and turned to look out the window...
Both sides of the street were crowded with people, and the guards' spears lay in front of them, so cold and killing that the ordinary people trembled and did not even dare to raise their heads.
As for Qin Jiyan?
Under layer after layer of protection, Gu Qiancheng couldn't see Qin Jiyan's figure at all. He couldn't even see Long Chu, only a corner.
It can be seen that Qin Jiyan said that he made a temporary decision to leave the palace, but in fact he was well prepared. At least the protection around him was very tight, and ordinary people could not get close to Qin Jiyan.
However, just when Gu Qiancheng looked away with relief, an accident happened!
"Kill, kill this dog emperor who forces the palace to seize the throne!"
"Qin Jiyan, the grandson of the emperor, forced the palace to seize the throne. He deserves to be punished according to his crime. We, under the orders of the Holy One, will execute the traitors!"
…
Suddenly, dozens of figures jumped out from among the people kneeling on both sides. These people were extremely skilled in light skills. In just a blink of an eye, these people jumped over the defense of the imperial guards and rushed to the front of the imperial court. The swords in their hands were pointed towards the dragon.
Swing it away...
