"That's very good, very good." The emperor nodded again and looked outside the hall, as if looking at an illusory existence.
"I have always regretted what happened to the prince back then..." For a long time, the emperor said slowly, his voice filled with regret and weakness.
"...Now that I have given back to my grandson everything that should be given to him, I finally feel better."
Qian Wei knew very well that the "him" the emperor referred to referred to the prince.
In the past, Qian Wei wouldn't have wanted to hear about this matter. After all, he knew everything about the prince.
But now, at first glance, the emperor has lost some weight, his face is full of wrinkles, and he looks haggard and weak. His grandson has been enthroned. At such an important and special moment, the emperor thought of what happened back then. It was reasonable and reasonable that he wanted to find someone. Talking is completely normal.
Just as the emperor said, there are basically no people who can listen to what he said, but there are still some who are not suitable to listen to these words.
Qian Wei is really the most suitable candidate.
"...I have done this, maybe what I want is peace of mind, and I also hope to choose a wise king for Dazheng, but I don't know if I have chosen this grandson, can I still go to see the Taizu safely? "
These words were very serious. When the emperor said this, a place in the dark palace suddenly lit up.
Qian Wei is old, but not only does he not have presbyopia, his eyes are extremely sharp and easy to use.
Even though he was so far away, he could still see the big thing and the light that was two-thirds full of it, but even if he saw it, it was only swept away.
Although he didn't understand what this object was, he couldn't observe it carefully in front of the emperor.
Although he was sitting when the emperor was speaking, his buttocks were only slightly touching the chair and he did not dare to sit down at all.
It wasn't until the emperor said something about whether he could see Taizu safely that he meant so much that Qian Wei couldn't sit still anymore. He immediately got up and knelt down, kowtowing upwards.
"My grandson has always been benevolent and filial, and he will never let down the emperor's great kindness. If anything changes, I will definitely defend the emperor to the death!"
This was said with absolute certainty, without any hesitation.
Although the emperor had some objections to the prince's matter, Qian Wei did not say that the emperor had repented and conferred the title of grandson on Dai Wang. Even if there was no such thing, if Dai Wang wanted to cause chaos, although he felt sympathy and pity, he would never show mercy. Not to mention colluding with others.
This is the path that Qian Wei has taken throughout his life. Although he has stumbled, he never gives up.
"The emperor is still so vicious when looking at people." Eunuch Zhao watched silently, and suddenly he understood that Qian Wei was a very important official, and there were many changes, but the unbreakable morality in his heart was still there.
You, your relatives, your friends, and your subordinates all have standards and are not willing to go beyond the limits.
Qian Wei sympathizes with the prince and is happy to be granted the title of grandson on behalf of the king. However, if the grandson takes any step beyond Lei Chi, he will never accept it.
What Qian Wei said was actually just to calm the emperor's heart. He really understood why the emperor looked old. This was the pressure brought on the emperor by "the heart of the emperor suddenly belongs to the grandson".
Even the courtiers who entered the palace could see that although the palace was magnificent, the atmosphere was no longer as good as that of Taisun's Mansion.
They have always been emperors and courtiers, and the emperor seems to be very old. Compared with such an old emperor or a very young grandson, which one is more worthy of getting close to? Needless to say?
As the emperor, how could he not feel the changes?
Will the emperor who has ruled the world for twenty years have this day? Qian Wei felt really sorry for the emperor, and heard the emperor's voice above his head: "There is no need to die, I have something to tell you to do, you should get up and talk first."
"yes."
Qian Wei got up and saw that Eunuch Zhao was no longer with the emperor. After a moment, Eunuch Zhao came back again, holding a scroll box in his hand.
Qian Wei realized something at this moment, and his expression became more solemn.
The emperor stood up and walked over step by step without the support of Eunuch Zhao. He said, "This is an imperial edict. If I have nothing to do, everything will be fine. If there is something to do, you can announce it."
Gu: "Yes!" Qian Wei hurriedly knelt down again and took the scroll box from Eunuch Zhao. Although the box was not heavy, when it fell into his hand, it made him feel as heavy as a thousand pounds.
After he took the box, he naturally did not dare to open it and check it, but solemnly swore to the emperor: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will live up to the Emperor's entrustment. If I live up to my trust, I will be punished by heaven and earth!"
"It's serious." The emperor smiled, but it was obvious that he was very satisfied with Qian Wei's attitude.
Just saying these few words, as if the emperor had exhausted a lot of energy, he waved his hand, indicating that Qian Wei could go back.
Qian Wei backed up until he reached the door, then turned and left.
What Qian Wei didn't know was that when the figure disappeared outside the palace gate, he took a few steps back and sat down as soon as he finished speaking, and then stood up again as if he were an old and feeble emperor.
But this time when he stood up, he no longer looked as weak as before. Although his face was still not good, his energy and spirit were obviously much stronger.
"Qian Wei is a cabinet minister and his influence is not small. That's fine. The key is Shilin's influence and reputation. There is a lot of fresh air influenced by him."
"On weekdays, I don't need to be like this, but at this time, I still need to comfort you."
"After all, Dan Ruocheng has a bad reputation for me. Someone must come forward to support me and tell me why I have no choice."
The emperor pondered, and found that there was no problem. He didn't care whether Qian Wei had discovered Jiulong Yi. Even if he had discovered it, he would not dare to tell it, and he would only wave his hand: "Discuss the matter!"
"yes!"
The curtains of the main hall were opened, and two rows of people were seen entering in response, all of them expressionless, kneeling on the left and right.
The emperor walked up to Jiulongyi and looked at the dragon ball on it. The dragon ball was shining brightly, and the light inside was growing slightly.
Within ten steps, there were only two people waiting on them, both of them were great eunuchs. One was Eunuch Meng of Meng Lin and the other was Eunuch Zhao. Ma Shunde, who had always wanted to be the most trusted eunuch of the emperor, was not among them.
Staring at the slow growth of the dragon ball, the emperor was both happy, wary, and even more inexplicably melancholy. He murmured, "Did you know? When I passed out, I saw Taizu."
The emperor seemed to be saying this to Meng Lin who was nearest him, but he was actually talking to himself.
"Taizu seems to be very unhappy. Could it be that I am really wrong? No, even if Taizu doesn't allow it, I have made up my mind and will lay this trap!"
Eunuch Zhao was a little further away and could vaguely hear the emperor talking to himself.
"A dragnet?" Eunuch Zhao just bowed his hands and twitched his ears: "My grandson has only been sealed for less than three days, but a big net has already been laid."
Eunuch Zhao didn't know the inside story, but after decades of working in the palace, he could guess nine out of ten of them just by looking at them. He was just thinking.
"Could it be that when the dragon balls are all lit up, it's time to close the net? Back then, back then, was the prince targeted in this way?"
Once this thought arises, there is no way to suppress it.
The figure of the prince appeared in Eunuch Zhao's mind. Although it was blurred in his memory, and his facial features could hardly be remembered, the figure became darker and darker at this moment.
After coming back to his senses, Eunuch Zhao saw Meng Lin standing beside the emperor.
In fact, there were not only a few high eunuchs who followed the emperor back then, but there was also one high eunuch who was trusted by the emperor's side.
Xu Zhong.
Eunuch Zhao suddenly had another thought: "Xu Zhong, who was with the emperor back then, suddenly disappeared after the prince was killed. No one dares to mention it yet. I...will this day happen to me too?"
Just thinking of this possibility made Eunuch Zhao's blood run cold.
