The King of Shu listened to Liu Danai's talk again: "Your Majesty, it is certainly easy to kill a villain like me, but...is your Majesty willing? Are you willing?"
The King of Shu sneered: "Since you are a villain, let your adults talk."
The adult he was referring to was naturally Cao Yiyan.
Liu Danai looked up and bowed again: "The palace is like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, but the adults dare not come... But the adults are sincere in letting the villains come."
As he said this, he presented a rolled up piece of kraft paper, which obviously had something written on it.
Naturally, the King of Shu would not let Liu Danai hand it over directly. The picture was revealed, and within three steps, Wang Yi was confused. Everyone knows this. Ma Youliang quickly took over, checked briefly, and found that there was no problem, so he handed it over.
In the hands of the King of Shu.
The King of Shu unfolded it and read it, and suddenly became silent.
Ma Youliang didn't know what the king saw. The king fell silent and his heart suddenly lifted.
On the contrary, the messenger who delivered the things looked calm.
To be honest, Ma Youliang admired this man very much. He was so calm, as if the person whose life and death was in the hands of the king was not himself.
King Shu finally spoke again, this time in a slightly softer tone: "I have seen your Lord's sincerity."
Originally, the "transaction" between the two parties was one-sided. Cao Yiyan did not even ask the King of Shu to repay him. It seemed that he just wanted to see Dazheng fighting for his heir and causing civil strife.
So after submitting this thing, Liu Danai said goodbye and quit.
The King of Shu then told Ma Youliang: "Sir, as you said before, you can find someone to vent your anger on."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. We still have some young officials in the pocket these years. Don't come forward directly. As long as the discussion is negative, someone will naturally write a letter."
Ma Youliang said with cupped hands and went to make arrangements. When he saw him leaving, the King of Shu changed his expression, patted the brown paper and said coldly: "The list above is really terrifying. I don't think that the former Wei Dynasty has been here until now.
There are also people placed in the palace to respond..."
"However, now the truth has been revealed. Is it Ying Guo who supported the people of the former Wei Dynasty? If I ascend the throne, I will destroy Ying Guo!"
Although Cao Yiyan did not mention Yingguo at all, as long as he had doubts, it was enough.
Wanglufang·The third day
It was already dark again at this time, but because of the canonization of the grandson and the general amnesty, the curfew was opened for three days, so the capital was still very lively at night.
The streets were brightly lit, with mat tents erected here and there, and a steady flow of pedestrians. An ox cart slowly passed by Dai Wang, no, Tai Sun Mansion, and the people inside opened a corner of the thick curtain and looked out.
I saw that the roadside was almost crowded with bullock carts. The Taisun Mansion was like a bustling city. The people coming in and out were all officials and Confucian scholars. Looking at their faces, it was obvious that they were all here to celebrate. There were also servants and the like. In the street hotel
They were warming themselves by the fire and drinking wine, and their faces were all glowing.
He asked the coachman to drive slower, and the coachman immediately responded.
In fact, there is no need to deliberately drive slowly. This entire road is now overcrowded with people and vehicles. If the people from Taisun Mansion were not always helping to clear the way, the passing bullock carts would not be able to squeeze through.
The people in the car looked at it for a while and then said in a deep voice: "Keep walking."
Then the ox-cart released its speed. After passing through this section of the road and reaching an open area, the ox pulling the cart immediately spread its hooves and moved quickly forward.
Soon, the bullock cart arrived outside the palace gate.
There were people waiting at the gate of the palace for a long time. They were dressed and looked like high-level eunuchs. Everyone who worked in the palace knew this eunuch. He was Zhao who was very popular with the emperor in the past.
Father-in-law.
The guard guarding the door took a curious look at the old man who got off the bullock cart, and suddenly realized that it was Mr. Qian Ge!
Mr. Qianwei!
This was not the first time that Mr. Qian Ge entered the palace after dark, so he did not dare to ask any more questions and watched as Mr. Qian Ge was led in by Eunuch Zhao.
I don’t know if it was a psychological illusion, but along the way, I followed the eunuch Qian Wei and looked around quietly, and I always felt that the majestic palace in the past was not as lively as Taisun’s Mansion!
Although there was one post every five steps and one sentry every ten steps, and during the walk, he also encountered some eunuchs and palace maids, this feeling of emptiness and lack of popularity lingered in Qian Wei's heart.
Suddenly, Qian Wei thought of his student's drunken remark that "the heart of a grandson suddenly belongs to a great grandson" when he was drinking. Although he scolded him, he couldn't help but think of it.
"Even the emperor can't escape the coldness of the world. The tea has become a little cold before people leave."
Qian Wei just thought about it and followed the two eunuchs to guide him. After walking for a while, the palace roads gradually became a little dilapidated. The surroundings were quiet and silent. Looking at the surrounding environment, Qian Wei felt a little uneasy.
As a pavilion elder and a trusted minister of the emperor, he had been summoned at night more than once in the past. This kind of thing was actually not unusual.
But for this minister, he has been here many times in the past, but has never been taken here.
Which palace is this?
Although it is a palace, when the emperor summons his ministers, he does so here?
When he got closer, he saw the name of the palace, Qinhua Palace... and then he suddenly realized that this was where it was.
This place has not always been abandoned. It seems that ministers were summoned here many years ago. Could it be that this is a place where the emperor relieves his emotions?
Although it doesn't look like a common secret, everyone has secrets, not to mention the emperor. After this thought flashed through Qian Wei's mind, he didn't dare to think about it anymore and just followed the footsteps of the eunuch in front of him.
As soon as they walked up the steps, the three of them carried the medicine box and bowed their heads to exit from inside. These three were all high-level imperial doctors, and Qian Wei was somewhat impressed.
It seems that the emperor recently moved here for a short stay?
Qian Wei said nothing. The three of them nodded hurriedly to Qian Wei and walked out.
Eunuch Zhao asked Qian Wei to follow him a few steps slower, then walked in quickly and said to the people inside: "Your Majesty, people are here."
After a while, he came out and motioned for Qian Wei to come in.
As soon as he entered, Qian Wei smelled a strong medicinal smell.
Qian Wei's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he immediately looked towards the seat, and saw that the person sitting there looked very haggard, although he was trying to stay energetic.
The emperor, who was already quite old, even his eyes were darkened at this moment. He looked like a candle in the wind, fearing that the stronger wind would blow it out.
Qian Wei had never seen such an emperor before.
"emperor……"
Qian Wei almost shed tears when he bowed down and said, "I haven't seen you for a few days. Your Majesty has become so haggard. This is beyond my expectation!"
As Qian Wei said this, he felt a sense of sadness, not only for the emperor, but also for himself. He was young back then, but now he is old.
The emperor's Adam's apple moved, he opened his eyes and raised his hand: "You are not too slow to come. Get up. You are not young anymore. Give Qian Aiqing a seat."
Qian Wei was busy thanking him.
After Qian Wei sat down, the emperor sighed and said, "I called you here this time because I have some things on my mind that I want to talk to someone, but most of the people who can talk to me are gone. What about you?
You have been working with me since decades ago, and I have always trusted you... I'm just afraid that you might think I called you late at night and talked about these trivial things..."
Hearing this, Qian Wei's tears almost burst out again.
"Your Majesty, being able to follow you is the most right and most valuable thing I have done decades ago. What kind of status do you have, and you are willing to chat with me, don't say it is late at night, or even late at night, I will respond immediately
When you are called, how can you dare to hesitate at all?"
