Chen Ruijin personally went to persuade Princess Shu to help Situ Cen take the blame, and it went very smoothly. When the princess heard that the evidence in the hands of Aunt He had been destroyed and that the prince was secretly investigating the matter, she immediately agreed to take the blame. Aunt He died that day.
She didn't even find an excuse. She just said that she had offended her master and ordered her to be gagged and dragged out and beaten to death. Aunt He didn't know what happened, but she died suddenly. Chen Ruijin asked: "Is there anything else that your Majesty can do?"
"The shortcomings are in the hands of others?" The princess said: "It doesn't matter anything else."
Jia Cong then ran to tell Situ Cen: "Your mother-in-law has destroyed the evidence and killed Grandma He."
Situ Cen was shocked: "Who is this?"
Jia Cong said: "If you are not a confidant, how can you know so many secrets? In fact, the prince may not know many things. He is just pretending to be confused and not care about it."
Situ Cen felt as if he had been loosened. He first took down the Wen Po family who had changed the child, and then found out the doctor who helped diagnose the pulse. This person was an imperial doctor from the capital, and together with the other Wen Po, who was a craftsman, they were all former members of the late emperor.
Situ Cen was dumbfounded! He never dreamed that they were his deceased grandfather's people, so he hurriedly took the confession to see the King of Shu. The King of Shu was also shocked. According to the confession of the imperial doctor, the Supreme Emperor had come to the Kingdom of Shu, and had been granted leave by the late emperor.
The king of Shu suddenly felt his back numb and shouted repeatedly: "Send Qiu Liang to come!"
Suddenly Qiu Liang came over, read the confession, and said: "The guard of the underground prison on Zhuzhi Street is an old eunuch, so the ministers suspected that he had something to do with the late emperor. Anyway, a gap has been opened now, and we can follow the clues later."
The King of Shu said with a gloomy face: "Don't let anyone go." Qiu Liang quickly agreed.
Qiu Liang had no choice but to put aside other official duties for the time being and investigate the remaining members of the late emperor with Situ Cen. After only one day of investigation, someone shot an arrow into Qiu Liang's yamen in the middle of the night, with several suspicious houses written on it. Qiu Liang didn't care whether the arrow was from
Whoever shot it, immediately sent people over to arrest the people inside for interrogation.
Two days later, a beggar knocked on the door outside Mr. Mei’s house. After knocking for half a day, there was no sound, and he smelled the smell of blood. He felt bad and climbed over the wall. After looking inside for a long time, he came out with a few things.
Leave at the door.
Two days later, Jia Cong, Liu Feng and Chen Ruijin were discussing matters in the courtyard. A disciple of Jia's Horse Racing Company came to report that two scholars, father and son, came outside and asked to see the third master. When Jia Cong saw it, he saw that the post was signed by Wang Sanbai.
Then he said, "I don't know him."
The disciple said: "This Mr. Wang is very imposing, and this is unusual for a villain."
Jia Cong touched his chin: "Then let's meet?"
Chen Ruijin said with a smile: "Situ Cen probably caught up with everything that old man had in Chengdu."
Jia Cong shuddered: "No way!"
Liu Feng stood up: "Third Master, see you!"
"What the hell do you have in mind?"
Liu Feng said: "I'll stay away first. If it's really that old man, please send me a message." But he smiled and walked out.
Not long after, the disciple invited the two people in. Jia Cong took a look and realized that he was really the Supreme Emperor, although the old man was too old to recognize him. The young man following him, Jia Cong, had also seen the portrait, and he was the "Prince of Qin".
General Liu." He blinked, took a few deep breaths, and rubbed his eyes. The Supreme Emperor said with tears: "Jia Aiqing..."
Jia Cong immediately knocked out the bell in the room: "Go to Stone Street and buy two packs of snacks for Third Grandma!"
Lingdang asked: "What snacks should I buy?"
Jia Cong waved his hand: "Whatever is more expensive will buy you!" Lingdang was surprised, agreed and left.
Jia Cong hurriedly invited the Emperor to take a seat and poured tea in person. He pretended that he had forgotten to kowtow to him and sat down beside him. The Emperor shed tears again. Looking at the old man's gray hair, Jia Cong suddenly felt unspeakably aggrieved.
I don’t know where I’m feeling uncomfortable. After a while, I said, “Sage… I’m afraid he’s not having a good time lately.”
The Supreme Emperor stopped crying and shook his head: "Mountains and rivers are broken."
Jia Cong was silent for a long time and said with a wry smile: "I really don't know what to say. It's like a dream."
The Emperor's face showed kindness: "How is Old Seventh?"
"It's very good. He has a tough head and a strong brain. He also studied well. In the early years, he was very worried, but recently he seems to have suddenly become enlightened." Jia Cong thought for a while, "He just knows who he is. If he has the ambition to go overseas when he grows up,
Tuotu, Weichen is also willing to help him."
The Supreme Emperor raised his eyes and looked at Jia Cong intently: "You no longer want to support him?"
Jia Cong lowered his head and thought for a long time, and said sternly: "I don't want to support any prince or prince to unify the country. A saint is like a broken porcelain that cannot be restored. Once the opportunity is lost, there is no way to get it back."
The Supreme Emperor was slightly shocked: "Did you really vote for Lao Jiu?!"
Jia Cong waved his hand: "I have never. I have never surrendered to the Sixth Prince. I have said it countless times. I only occupy overseas territories for our people. It doesn't matter who becomes the emperor, and it doesn't matter if the kings divide their kingdoms. Civil war damages the population."
The Supreme Emperor was stunned and didn't say anything for a long time. Jia Cong felt uncomfortable beside him and just ate tea apologetically. Suddenly the Supreme Emperor burst into tears and burst into tears. Jia Cong suddenly remembered the movie "The Last Emperor" he had watched in his previous life, and felt unreasonable
Feeling a sense of vicissitudes of life. General Liu stepped forward and patted the Supreme Emperor on the back to comfort him. The old man cried more and more sadly. Jia Cong couldn't help but shed a few tears.
General Liu hugged his father's shoulders and said, "Jia Aiqing, this country belongs to my father!"
Jia Cong shook his head and said: "There is no one who owns the country. The country is the country, and whoever grabs it belongs to him. No matter what, the saint is much better than Prince Xian Yi Zhong, and none of his children died. From the perspective of the abdicated king, he has already
You are the luckiest." He thought for a moment, "I didn't expect you to show up suddenly. Saint, would you like to go to the study with me? I'll show you something." The Emperor's eyes lit up.
When the three of them arrived in the study, they never thought that what Jia Cong took out was actually a map of the sea. He pointed out: "Sage, please look, the world is very big."
The Supreme Emperor slapped the table and said, "I have seen these things! These are not mine!" He picked up the paperweight, inkstone and other items on the desk and smashed them into the ground.
Jia Cong whispered to General Liu: "My lord, I don't know how to speak... How about you comfort him?"
General Liu sneered: "Not helping the king when he is in trouble is disloyal..."
Jia Cong raised his hand: "Stop! I thank you from heaven!" General Liu took a breath. Jia Cong continued, "I know that people have ambitions, and I also know that once power is gained, it will be very painful to lose it. But
Now that things have come to this, what can we do? We are coming back to ask for money and food for our troops. Do you have any now? Although Chen State is small, it is quite wealthy. How about going to Chen State and giving it a try? It’s just that Concubine Hui is no longer here."
General Liu suddenly asked: "May I ask how Concubine Hui died?"
Jia Cong said: "I don't know very clearly. It seems that she harmed someone in the palace in her early years, and that person's relatives took revenge. Another theory is that Concubine Hui killed King Yan's second son, and King Yan had another son.
If you are kind to someone, that person will repay King Yan by killing Concubine Hui."
The Supreme Emperor shouted: "These rebellious officials and traitors——"
Jia Cong whispered: "What are you doing, saint... According to common sense, you have probably harmed many innocent people."
General Liu drank: "Bold!"
Jia Cong winced: "Be careful anyway. Don't expose your whereabouts casually until you have the absolute strength to protect yourself. It's not safe."
The Supreme Emperor was stunned for a long time after hearing this, and said dejectedly: "Those brothers are not the ones who want to kill me now." He gritted his teeth again, "It's a shame that I didn't see Lao Jiu's thoughts." He shed tears again, "My conscience has been eaten by dogs...
…”
Jia Cong muttered: "You can pull him down... You have taken advantage of him since you were a child. Even though Eunuch Liu helped you take advantage of it, you can do it without any regrets." The Supreme Emperor was stunned. Jia Cong then muttered, "I heard
You two brothers had a very difficult time in the palace when you were young. Logically speaking, you are always the older brother and should take care of your younger brother."
The Supreme Emperor was annoyed: "Didn't I take care of him?"
"Then is it true that you took advantage of him?"
The Supreme Emperor was speechless. After a long time, he said: "It's just a trivial matter when I was young, but I still remember it at such an old age!"
"Oh, my emperor!" Jia Cong pouted, "You always take advantage, of course you don't remember. The Ninth Prince suffered a loss, can you not remember? Besides, didn't you also suppress the late Emperor during the two years when his health was poor?
If he doesn't take action, can you let him go once the late Emperor's affairs are over?"
The Supreme Emperor slapped the case, pointed at Jia Cong and shouted: "You thief! You really voted for Lao Jiu!"
Jia Cong spread his hands: "I am just stating a fact! The Tian family has no flesh and blood. If you gain power, you will not let him go. You have never let Prince Yi Zhong go, so don't blame him for not letting you go. Since everyone obeys Sheng
If you still have ambitions, start all over again!" He pointed at the sea map, "There are so many places! You have been an emperor after all, don't you think so?
Not as good as water?" The Supreme Emperor suddenly calmed down.
After a long time, General Liu said softly: "I don't know that second brother..."
The Supreme Emperor waved his hand: "He has been King Chen for many years and will not keep me."
Jia Cong said "Oh!" and said: "Well, sage, if you want to take refuge with your son, it would be better to go to King Lu. He has already sent troops to conquer territory in North America. And King Lu is a smart boy and won't
Daydreaming. If King Chen gets hold of you, he might raise a banner to tell all the kings in the world that you are there. But who among the princes will admit it? They will all say that he has found an impostor. The country of Chen is so small.
, I’m afraid that the King of Yan and the King of Shu will immediately join forces to destroy it.”
The Supreme Emperor was thoughtful. General Liu asked: "Jia Aiqing, what will happen to King Lu?"
"No worries about food and clothing."
General Liu moved the corner of his lower lip slightly: "Is it just about having enough food and clothing?"
"Is it possible that someone else would give his power to someone else? He himself spent a lot of effort to repair his mother's family." Jia Cong said, "Sage, the natal families of your little wives are really useless.
A smart family." Looking back, I realized that the Emperor's older sons were all born before he ascended the throne. At that time, he was still an unpopular prince, and he probably couldn't get a few wives from his natal family.
General Liu tried his best to hide the smile on his face and whispered: "Father, my son and I have said that they are not trustworthy."
The Supreme Emperor said blankly: "Seven or eight sons... are all unreliable."
Jia Cong advised: "You are already so old, what are you still fighting for? It is better to go to the country of Lu and enjoy your old age. The king of Lu is not young anymore, and he is choosing a princess. You will always help with the staff. Let him be appointed in two years.
It would be great to give you a grandson."
General Liu said with a smile: "My father wants to spend his old age in Taiwan, okay?"
Jia Cong thought for a while: "In the name of Han Quan or something? That's fine! How about just saying he's Han Quan's uncle? Quan'er still has the ability to raise an uncle."
The Supreme Emperor suddenly turned to Jia Cong and said, "Isn't it that I ordered Jia Lian to take charge of the Taiwan government?"
Jia Cong shrugged: "Yes. No one has removed him from his post. He is still the prefect of Taiwan."
General Liu said: "I heard that the Taiwan government has very sophisticated firearms."
"Don't be interested in our firearms!" Jia Cong shouted, "It's all money! We have paid back the 800,000 silver that our family owes to the treasury, and we don't owe your family anymore!"
General Liu said: "If we don't have firearms, what can we do to conquer territory overseas?"
Jia Cong said: "Don't you have bandits? Shui Rong used bandits to conquer territory, and Zhou Xiaolan used pirates to conquer territory. By the way, you still have the legacy left by the late emperor."
Just when General Liu was about to speak, the Supreme Emperor raised his hand and waved it. General Liu then remained silent. After a long time, the Supreme Emperor sighed dejectedly: "The world is in trouble." Jia Cong had nothing to say, so he remained silent. The Supreme Emperor looked at it.
He said, "You don't think you would go and confess to me with Lao Liu."
"No, no!" Jia Cong said, "Your brothers' affairs have nothing to do with me."
The Supreme Emperor closed his eyes for a long time and then said: "I saw a booklet...you said that the fate of the sixth child has changed?"
"Well, it's changed. Now that I've changed it, I won't change it back."
"What's my destiny?"
"It has also changed." Jia Cong said, "Even the destiny of the country has changed. Saint, the second prince - Prince Chen is not a good heir. You were a bit farsighted back then."
The Supreme Emperor sighed again, and heard Jia Cong feel a little sad, but he still couldn't say anything. The old man stood up with support on the desk, shook his head, and left without saying a word. However, his waist and back were more obvious than when he came in.
They turned. General Liu followed behind. Jia Cong personally escorted them out of the gate. General Liu suddenly turned back and looked at Jia Cong with a smile.
Returning to the inner courtyard, Chen Ruijin said: "Just now, there were three people secretly following the Supreme Emperor, and there were more than fifty outside Ma Xing."
Jia Cong sighed: "Well, he probably won't go to King Lu anymore. General Liu will definitely try to stop him."
Chen Ruijin said: "It is better to go to Lu country than to be a bandit. The king of Lu has a conscience and will help him to some extent. North America is so big."
Jia Cong hummed: "I still have a meager inheritance left, how can I let other brothers share it? By the way, what did Liu Feng do?"
"you do not know?"
"Where should I go?"
Chen Ruijin smiled and said: "Of course I took advantage of the absence of your Huashan Taoist brothers' leaders and masters to lead a sneak attack."
Because the elite around the Emperor were guarding Jia's Horse House, Liu Feng led his troops to sneak attack on his residence - a village on the outskirts of Chengdu. Time was limited, Liu Feng ordered many more people to be captured alive, and threatened their lives to let them go.
After revealing where the important things were hidden, he found the detailed list of works left by the late emperor.
When Jia Cong saw them, he said: "Send them all to the capital! Let Liu Xiaoqi sell them for a few bucks."
Liu Fengqi asked: "Don't you want these people?"
"These people are so loyal and are following me and my son. Why are they here?"
