Prince Chu's Mansion.
The King of Chu is again planning the official assessment at the end of the year.
Three years, three whole years, the King of Chu didn't know how he got here. Since the water transport case, the power of the King of Chu's party had been greatly damaged.
If no one stops him, he will be able to recover in three years.
However, Yang Qingyuan's crackdown on evil in the Gyeonggi region wiped out many of the external forces he had conquered.
After the prince gained the upper hand, he also began to suppress the King of Chu in all aspects.
The title "Prince" was originally a late-stage profession. The higher the stage, the greater the righteousness it represents and the strength that gathers around him.
Especially when Emperor Zhou's health was deteriorating, the prince with a righteous name could gather more and more people's hearts.
"Your Highness, I heard some news!"
Just when King Chu was feeling worried, a servant beside him said.
The King of Chu was in no mood. What news could he have about his personal attendant? !
"The day before yesterday, Deputy Zhao Qianhu of Jinyiwei said that the prince and Yang Qingyuan seemed to be in a match!"
"!!??"
King Chu suddenly became interested!
These are the two people he hates the most in the court. When the two of them confront each other, wouldn't it be like dog eating dog?
"Quick, tell me, what's going on?!"
King Chu changed his frown from just now.
"I don't know this slave. I have to ask Deputy Zhao Qianhu for the specific details."
When King Chu heard the great news, he couldn't wait any longer. "Go quickly and call him here. I have to ask what's going on!?"
Half an hour later, Qianhu Zhao Zheng, deputy Qianhu of Jinyiwei Town Fusi in Shendu, arrived and rushed to the Prince of Chu's mansion.
"Old Zhao! You are finally here! Come on! Come on!"
Although the King of Chu was not as resourceful as the Crown Prince, he had little airs about the people he liked. He had a relatively straightforward temper and clear grievances. After seeing Zhao Zheng coming, the King of Chu sat cross-legged on the blanket and took pictures. He patted the position beside him and motioned for Zhao Zheng to sit down.
"Your Highness! What are your orders for calling me here in such a hurry?!"
"Go and cut a pound of pig head meat, half a pound spicy, half a pound fried in oil! And eight taels of pig ears! I want garlic! And a jar of good wine!"
Zhao Zheng sat down with a confused look on his face, "Your Highness, why did you call me here?!"
"Hahaha! I heard that Yang Qingyuan and the Crown Prince are biting each other! You are very knowledgeable, please tell me!!"
King Chu looked excited.
On the contrary, Zhao Zheng looked solemn, "Your Highness, what you said is wrong! Mr. Yang is upright and just, and he is asking for life for the people. Although I cannot be a person like Mr. Yang, it does not prevent me from admiring Mr. Yang as a person. Your Highness said: There is something wrong with the dog’s description of Mr. Yang and the Crown Prince!”
After hearing this, the King of Chu not only did not take offense, but his face fell. Compared to the prince, the King of Chu was indeed not calm enough and had a weak view of the overall situation. However, the King of Chu also had advantages. He treated his friends with dignity and equality.
Although Yang Qingyuan dispersed his followers, from the perspective of the country and the country, Yang Qingyuan did nothing wrong.
If he were the emperor, he would of course hope to have such capable and direct ministers. The reason for manipulating water transportation was not because the King of Chu wanted to evade taxes, but because he needed money to fight against the prince.
If he really ascends the throne, checking the water transportation is what he must do.
"This is not my fault! Old Zhao, don't be offended!"
"Your Highness, you are serious! It is human nature to have personal grudges!" Zhao Zheng also bowed his hand.
Zhao Zheng had a life-saving grace for the King of Chu. He once saved the King of Chu from the mouth of a tiger when he was hunting as a young man. The two have been inseparable ever since.
Although the King of Chu was unruly, his charisma and ability were not weak, which is why he still had so many followers even though he was at a disadvantage.
"However, the rift between Yang Qingyuan and the prince is indeed an opportunity for His Highness."
Zhao Zheng said seriously that although he admired Yang Qingyuan's character, he would never miss an opportunity that the King of Chu could seize. As a friend, he naturally hoped that the King of Chu would come to the Ninth Five-Year Plan.
"what is going on?!"
Zhao Zheng was sitting on the blanket, holding a piece of pig head meat, and said, "According to what our Jinyi Guards found out, it seems to be related to a case?!"
"case……"
This brought back some unpleasant memories for King Chu.
Back then, he was so high-spirited that he could stand up to the prince and not fall behind. But because of a case, his huge power was destroyed. Now he can only support himself under the pressure of the prince.
Unexpectedly, his brother would now confront Yang Qingyuan because of a case.
"Then do you know what the case is?!"
The King of Chu wanted to see if there was any opportunity to suppress the prince.
"I heard it is related to the previous poisoning case at Wannian County School! It seems that the prince's brother-in-law Zhou Mingsheng was involved in the case."
King Chu's eyes lit up when he heard Zhou Mingsheng's name, and the opportunity came.
For the crown prince, Zhou Mingsheng is indeed of no use, but Zhou Mingsheng's sister is indeed the crown prince's favorite. For the crown prince Zhou Mingyu, the crown prince will definitely fight to the death with Yang Qingyuan.
The King of Chu knew Yang Qingyuan well. Since he had already had a conflict with the prince, it meant that he was almost inseparable!
And he was not the one who would shrink back because of the prince's power.
In this case, although the prince has the advantage in terms of strength, the righteousness is on Yang Qingyuan's side.
"This person, Your Highness, cannot directly participate in it. You should sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers and wait for the outcome of Yang Qingyuan and the prince."
Although Zhao Zheng is just a deputy Qianhu of Jinyiwei Zhenfusi, he has good martial arts, careful thinking, principles and persistence. He is a talent. What he lacks is just qualifications and merit.
"If Yang Qingyuan wins, His Highness can take advantage of the situation to pursue the Crown Prince, cut off his power, and enrich his own wings. In this way, even if there are changes in the palace, Your Highness will still have the opportunity to compete with the Crown Prince for dominance!"
"If the prince wins, His Highness can also take advantage of the situation to support Yang Qingyuan. If he can gain Yang Qingyuan's support while fighting against the prince, then even if the prince wins this battle, it will not hurt."
King Chu knew that what Zhao Zheng said was a mature and prudent statement, but he still couldn't get over it. After all, he fell into the hands of Yang Qingyuan.
"But after all, Yang Qingyuan has been my enemy before, and he also damaged the support of my nobles in the military! Isn't this..."
Zhao Zheng advised and said,
"Your Highness, those who achieve great things must be open to all rivers, so that they can recruit talents from all over the world. Yang Qingyuan is one of the leaders of the Thirteenth Yong'an Clan, and his political influence is not comparable to that of a few lonely nobles, and Wenyuan Pavilion Grand Bachelor Qian Muqian and Grand Bachelor Yu Yanyi of Wuyingdian both admired him greatly. Gaining Yang Qingyuan is equivalent to indirectly gaining the support of a large number of political forces."
"As for the so-called support in the military, has His Highness forgotten Cao Xueyang, General Xuanwei of the Tiance Army two years ago?! This person has a special status in the Tiance Army and has a close relationship with Yang Qingyuan. If His Highness can really get the support of Yang Qingyuan, how can he still Are you afraid that no one in the army will support you?!"
"Furthermore, the military power in the capital is in the hands of His Majesty. Even if His Majesty is buried long live, and the Ministry of War Minister Yu Yanyi is in charge of the overall situation, who can move the troops?! The so-called support in the military is just His Highness. In order to fight against the prince's own army commander Lin Jun, it has no real effect!"
Although Zhao Zheng was born in Jinyiwei, his analysis was no less than that of ordinary counselors, and even more comprehensive.
This is also one of the reasons why King Chu and Zhao Zheng had a good relationship.
Excellent people always appreciate each other.
"Old Zhao, what you said makes sense! If I can make good friends with Yang Qingyuan regardless of the past grudges, I may not be able to follow the story of Emperor Taizong Wen and Wei Baice of the former Tang Dynasty and become an eternal legend."
The King of Chu called himself me to show his closeness to Zhao Zheng.
"But the top priority now is not just this?!"
King Chu picked up a piece of pig head meat and said vaguely.
"What else is there?!"
King Chu raised his wine glass and toasted Zhao Zheng, "Of course it's Lao Zhao, it's about your promotion."
"..."
"Your talents and talents are far beyond comparison with others, but now you are already in the position of Deputy Qianhu of Jinyiwei, and you have wasted too much time."
The King of Chu was loyal, and he had nothing to say when it came to Zhao Zheng, a close friend of his life and death.
"well!"
Zhao Zheng also sighed softly when he heard this. Why didn't he want to go further? However, there are many talents in Jinyiwei and various relationships are intertwined. It is not easy to be promoted? !
The King of Chu patted Zhao Zheng on the shoulder and said, "Old Zhao, there is no need to sigh. I have already found the opportunity. My father intends to divide the Shendu Zhenfu Division into two parts, each with jurisdiction over the east and west cities. Then the Jin Yiwei will command Tongzhi, Qinglong Unified leadership. In this way, a few more seats will be available!"
"Your Highness, what you mean is, the Imperial Guard Competition?!"
"The one who knows me is Brother Zhao!"
The King of Chu smiled and said, "With Brother Zhao's Yuan Hua realm martial arts and the higher-than-average Jin Yi Guard Qian Hu, it doesn't matter if he is sent to a state to serve as a Qian Hu. When the time comes, I will smooth things over for Brother Zhao. A fourth-grade Do you think it’s not a difficult thing to do in Jin Yi Wei?”
Zhao Zheng nodded when he heard this. If there happened to be such an opportunity, it would indeed be possible to jump two levels in a row.
"Thank you for your trouble, Your Highness!"
It is true to say that Zhao Zheng was not moved. At this critical moment of political struggle for power, the King of Chu was still thinking about his own promotion. This may be the charm of the King of Chu.
"Come, let's have a drink!"
…
----------
In the interrogation room of Dali Temple.
Zhou Mingsheng curled up at this moment, like a frightened quail, "Aren't you already dead?!"
Bai Ying's next words made Zhou Mingsheng's hair stand on end.
"Dad, why do you want to kill me!? No... you are not dad, you evil ghost!!"
Zhou Mingsheng's face was so pale that he didn't look like a living person. He committed the murder that day. She had clearly put on a disguise mask, but she still told the truth.
What is this if not a ghost? Could it still be a living person? !
"Little sister, I don't want to kill you! But I can't help it?! I have to protect myself! Don't come to harm me. When I get out, I will build a water and land dojo for you to save the souls of the dead. You will be reborn in bliss, and you must never come to pester me again!?"
"Why are you pretending to be my father... daddy... to kill me!! Why?!"
"Little sister, please don't blame me. If you do, blame your grandma for dragging you into the water. You have been living in Wannian County without any trouble your whole life. But your grandma has to go to Beijing to file a complaint. There is nothing I can do about it. !”
At this time, Zhou Mingsheng's back was already covered with cold sweat!
Just when it was about to be completed, the white ghost suddenly wrinkled its little nose, and then couldn't help it anymore and sneezed.
The originally terrifying atmosphere dissipated in an instant!
"..."
"..."
One person and one ghost looked at each other, and it was a very awkward couple.
Yang Qingyuan, who was hiding outside, had no choice but to show up.
God is not as good as man. Just when Zhou Mingsheng confessed truthfully, he did not expect that all his efforts would be ruined by a sneeze.
"Brother Qingyuan, I'm sorry, the ice cellar is really too cold! Yaya caught some wind chill and couldn't help it!"
Yang Qingyuan picked up the little Bai Ying and comforted him softly.
"It doesn't matter, Yaya is already great!?"
Zhou Mingsheng on the other side recovered, but was stunned.
"How is it possible?! How is it possible that this little girl is still alive?! I watched with my own eyes as the majestic force of the palm penetrated her whole body and shattered her bones. This is impossible!!"
"Do you know about brain death?!" Yang Qingyuan smiled contemptuously, illiterate!
The actor who plays this little white shadow is none other than Yaya.
That day, after Yaya was hit in the palm, the first person to rush to the scene was Ye Jianhan. After Ye Jianhan killed the remaining men in black in the backyard of Changyin Garden, he checked the injuries of Yaya and Fangyuan.
At that time, Yaya's heart was broken and her bones were shattered.
Ye Jianhan couldn't even feel Yaya's breath and subconsciously thought that Yaya was dead, so he tried his best to save Fang Yuan.
The people who arrived later, none of whom were good at medical treatment, did not find Yaya's vitality. Yang Qingyuan was so angry that he did not check carefully until one person appeared.
After Yaya's body was brought back to Dali Temple, Cui Keqin's appearance helped Yaya's injury take a turn for the better.
Cui Keqin is a descendant of the Yuxu lineage, and his alchemy skills are extraordinary, but it is impossible to save people if he is alone.
Not to mention her, even top-notch medical experts such as Wan Mi Zhai, Li Binhu, and Sun Shichang couldn't have saved Yaya who was injured at that time.
But as the direct descendant of Kunlun Yuxu, Cui Keqin has a treasure - the Three Light Divine Pill.
It is said that there is a spring with three colors in Kunlun Mountain, which can bring human flesh and bones to life.
The legend is naturally exaggerated, but it can indeed heal any internal injury. The world's most precious and fragrant cardamom grows beside this eye spring.
The three-color spring water in this sacred spring flows at an angle of 120 degrees every thirty years. Take turns watering, the heavenly fragrant cardamom.
It blooms every ten years, bears fruit every ten years, and matures every ten years.
It takes thirty years for a sweet cardamom to mature, and ninety years to save one life.
And this three-light elixir is made from heavenly fragrant cardamom and divine spring water. Its miraculous effect is even more powerful than the heavenly fragrant cardamom that is widely spread in the martial arts world.
There are only two posts left in Yuxu Palace.
The three pills from the first post were requested by Zhang Sanfeng twenty-five years ago.
This is the only post left.
Three pills per stick.
The first golden elixir nourishes the flesh, bones, and flesh of the injured.
The second silver pill can repair the internal injuries of the meridians and internal organs of the injured person.
The third purple pill can protect the injured person's true spirit and memory.
If you take these three pills in order, no matter how serious the injury is, you can still be brought back to life. Even if you have lost your life for half an hour and have already half stepped into the Temple of Yama, you can be saved!
It was Cui Keqin's three magic pills that saved Yaya from Suoming Wuchang.
------Digression-----
In fact, this was all planned in the previous plot.
One of the biggest effects of Cui Keqin's coming to Beijing is to bring this pair of three-light magic elixir.
The first person to check Yaya's death was Ye Jianhan. Yang Qingyuan was so angry that he did not even check Yaya's condition personally.
The ice cellar also hinted at it before.
The author has been scolded miserably!
