Demoness, Where Are You Fleeing To?

Chapter 376 Neptune’s Time Management

While the Shuowang Dynasty was in progress, the South Palace of the Forbidden City, also known as the Hongqing Palace, was on the side of the southeast corner of the Forbidden City.

A middle-aged man with white hair wearing a nine-piece dragon robe was standing in a corridor with his hands behind his back, looking to the northwest.

This is the orthodox emperor, Emperor Yu Qizhen of the Jin Dynasty. He has been under house arrest here by his brother Emperor Jingtai since he was captured in the Tumubao Incident and released by the Mongols.

At this time, Yu Qizhen's eyes were full of anger, hatred, humiliation and unwillingness.

"Is it irreversible? Is Shen'er's crown prince forfeited this time?"

"Yes, after the Yu Qilin incident, the prince's reputation in the court fell to the bottom. Due to the fire in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, all the disciples arranged by Gao Gu and Shang Hong in the Metropolitan Procuratorate were powerless.

Many people in the Hanlin Academy changed their attitude towards the prince because of this. Some people even offered to resign from the post of Zhan Shifu. "

The speaker was actually a figure made of earth and sand outside the wooden railing of the corridor. It had all four limbs and body, and its clothes should be a kind of flying fish suit, but because it was made of earth and sand, the color could not be seen; the color on its face was The facial features are also blurred, making it impossible to see its appearance clearly.

It bowed its body slightly and said: "The prince has decided to retreat in order to advance. First, he can preserve his reputation, and second, he can save some favor with the false emperor——"

boom!

This was Emperor Yu Qizhen. He suddenly waved his hand and slammed his fist on the beam next to him, causing sawdust to fly for a while.

"Bastard! This bitch Yu Qiyu, I knew he would break his promise and get rich. Are you and the Queen Mother just watching Shen'er be deposed?"

After the defeat of Tumu Fort in the former Jin Dynasty, he was captured and taken to the grassland first. In order to gain the support of the cabinet, Emperor Jingtai Yu Qiyu promised to make Zhu Jianshen the crown prince. Only then did he ascend the throne with the support of Yu Jie, Minister of War, and others.

But in less than ten years, his younger brother had a desire to save money.

The figure in the sand seemed to be fearful, and bowed slightly: "Emperor Jingtai has been in power for twelve years, and has become a full-fledged figure in the court. Now with the help of Li Xuan, we control the public discussion of the Confucian sect. The bargaining chip in our hands is like a mantis' arm as a cart. "

Yu Qizhen's face couldn't help but twist and change, and his cheeks moved slightly, looking extremely ferocious: "Uncle Chengyi! Is that Li Xuan?"

After a long time, he took a long breath and calmed down: "In this situation, don't I lose everything?"

The muddy figure raised his head and glanced at Yu Qizhen in surprise. He seemed surprised that Yu Qizhen today could have such determination.

"The magician wants you to be calm. The chess game has not yet come to an end, and it is difficult to determine the outcome."

He said in a hoarse voice: "We will not just sit back and watch Emperor Jingtai secure the throne, and Jinque Tiangong will not allow Li Xuan to continue to disrupt the way of heaven. This is all our help. In addition, General Zhenshuo, General Datong Soldiers, Wu Qinghou Liang Heng will be transferred back to the capital."

"Liang Heng?" Yu Qizhen frowned: "This is a general under Emperor Jingtai, and he is highly trusted by Emperor Jingtai. When he comes to the capital, the situation will only become more dangerous."

The muddy figure burst into laughter: "Liang Heng is indeed a general trusted by Emperor Jingtai, but he may not be able to be used by us."

.........

After about a moment, the silhouette in the mud and sand had turned into dirt and dust and disappeared without a trace.

Yu Qizhen's expression calmed down completely, and all the emotions such as shock, anger, anger, and joy on his face disappeared without a trace.

At this time, a dignified and graceful woman in plain skirt walked out from one side of the corridor. She seemed to be blind and was groping for the railing. Upon seeing this, Yu Qizhen stepped forward and held the woman's hand.

"Zitong, why don't you have someone accompany you?"

"I know that His Majesty is secretly discussing important matters with others, and I dare not let others accompany him."

The woman in plain skirt sighed slightly, with a hint of worry in her eyes: "Your Majesty, those people who are willing to help you may not necessarily have good intentions. Your Majesty, do you have to fight with your second brother? To be honest -"

She paused in her words: "My second brother is a kind-hearted person, but he is usually cruel and merciless. You and I have been dead for a long time now, and he will not survive until now."

"A kind-hearted person? And then you are so kind-hearted that you and I are locked up in a small place like Nangong, never to see the light of day?"

Yu Qizhen chuckled coldly. He looked up at the sky and the patches on the woman's clothes: "How could I not know that by joining forces with those people, I am actually seeking skin from a tiger? But I am unwilling to do so after all."

He opened his eyes wide and looked as bright as fire: "I was kidnapped to the grassland in the past, and my life and death depended on one thought; after returning to the capital, my life was in the hands of Yu Qiyu. I don't want to live like this anymore. pass--"

※※ ※※

When Li Xuan walked out of the Meridian Gate, the civil and military officials looked at him differently.

In the past, most people only respected his status as a Neo-Confucian law protector, and were more curious than that.

But at this time, besides respect, they also had fear and awe.

However, things around Li Xuan became particularly noisy.

At this time, no matter whether they were civil or military, as long as they could talk to Li Xuan, they would come over to greet him, say a few words, and show their face in front of him.

"This guy is amazing!"

Cifu Takagu walked out of the Zuoye Gate and looked at Li Xuan with a solemn and helpless expression: "Today, the offensive in the imperial court was like a tidal wave. It was so surging that I couldn't breathe."

He was fully prepared for today's New Year's Day. Although the defeat cannot be reversed, we are confident that we can minimize the losses.

But Li Xuan started from a small place, exerted force from unexpected places, and built up momentum step by step. By the time he impeached Yan Shenggong, it had already stirred up violent waves, making some of the methods he prepared useless.

In today's court battle, Li Xuan also fully demonstrated his reputation and influence in the court.

"The Queen Mother is too impatient. How can she provoke such a person at this time?"

"I didn't know beforehand that this person was so troublesome and cruel."

This is Shang Hong, a scholar from Zuo Chunfang. He also walked out of Zuo Yemen and said with a wry smile: "This son is a protector of Neo-Confucianism and has an affair with Princess Yu Hongshang of Changle. No wonder the Queen Mother and the Prince are nervous. .”

The real problem is that after the Queen Mother sent people to Dali Temple Prison, she still let Li Xuan walk out of there unscathed.

"This matter is very difficult." The person who said this was the Ministry of War who was following the two bachelors. He said with worry: "The whole army at Dali Temple will be wiped out. , the Metropolitan Procuratorate is afraid that it will not be able to protect a few people.

If the two husbands are allowed to investigate the case between Dali Temple and Yan Shenggong, the consequences will be unpredictable. "

Previously in the court, the prince voluntarily abdicated his throne and staged a drama of three concessions and concessions with Emperor Jingtai.

Emperor Jingtai tried to persuade the prince to stay several times, but it was not until the prince resigned three times that he orally gave up the prince's throne and conferred the title of King Yi.

But Li Xuan did not stop there, and instead pointed his finger at the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Taking several cases between Dali Temple and Yan Shenggong as an entry point, he accused the Metropolitan Procuratorate of neglecting supervision and even covering up the Kong family and Dali Temple. hide.

Takagu couldn't help but frown slightly, but in the end he could only sigh softly: "Let's wait until after the New Year. There may be a turn for the better by then."

Li Xuan didn't know that the cabinet minister was talking about him. It took him a full hour before he finally finished entertaining everyone and walked out of Chengtian Gate.

Next, he had to go to Shanwei Tower to hold a banquet to entertain the officials in the court who had greatly helped him this time.

But just when Li Xuan walked out of the city gate, he saw the female official next to Yu Hongshang.

"Her Royal Highness the Princess asked me to send a message to Mr. Jing Anbo."

It was about today's confrontation in the court that the female official realized Li Xuan's status clearly. When she saw Li Xuan again, she no longer had the sternness and cold arrogance she had at Longhu Mountain. She said with a smile on her face: "The day after tomorrow is the day after tomorrow. On New Year’s Eve, my Royal Highness hopes Lord Jing’anbo can come to the palace to celebrate her birthday with her.”

She looked at Li Xuan with deep meaning in her eyes: "Speaking of which, this day is also Mr. Jing'an Bo's birthday."

Li Xuan knew that his and Yu Hongshang's birthdays were in the same year, same month, same day, same hour, or even the same moment.

But he hesitated for a while: "Do I have to enter the palace? Can Hongshang leave the palace and come to my house?"

Li Xuan thought of Xue Yunrou, Luo Yan and Le Qianqian. He couldn't just leave these girls in the house and ignore them during the Chinese New Year, right?

"It is not convenient for Your Highness the Princess to leave the palace on New Year's Eve." The female official shook her head slightly, and then said with a strange look in her eyes: "Your Highness, she said she would have a surprise for you, a surprise that Mr. Jing'an Bo could not imagine."

surprise?

Li Xuan suddenly became energetic after hearing this, and then he looked hesitant and said, "About when? I won't be free after Youshi (7 p.m.)."

"After the You hour on New Year's Eve, the palace will be locked." The female officer laughed and said, "So Mr. Jing'anbo had better come here early."

She thought that she was only responsible for inviting Li Xuan into the palace. As for whether Li Xuan could come out after Youshi, it had nothing to do with her.

Li Xuan thought that this would be easy to handle: "Okay, you can reply to the princess and say that I will definitely go to the appointment."

And not long after he dismissed the female official, Li Xuan met Xue Yunrou who was waiting for the emperor's summons outside the palace.

At this time, Xue Yunrou also mentioned New Year's Eve: "Xuan Lang, how are you going to spend New Year's Eve?"

"Of course we will have a banquet in the mansion to celebrate New Year's Eve together." Li Xuan said naturally: "Everyone celebrates my birthday by the way. UUReading www.uukanshu.net "

"What's the point?"

Xue Yunrou blushed and looked into the distance: "On New Year's Eve, I just want to spend it with you. On your birthday, I have prepared a surprise for you."

Another surprise?

Li Xuan couldn't help but feel nervous at this time. He asked carefully: "About what time? Yunrou, you also know that I am very busy with official work recently, and I have to be busy on New Year's Eve. I may not be free before Youshi."

"Of course it was after Youshi." Xue Yunrou gave Li Xuan a strange look: "Do you still remember that day at Xuanwu Lake? I have always been very sorry. I want to give you another dance, and then drink and enjoy the scenery together. This time we Change it to Shichahai."

Li Xuan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and thought that was right. It was still inconvenient to do that kind of thing during the day.

"Sure!" Li Xuan answered simply and neatly.
