But……
The human heart is made of flesh!
The emperor lowered his head, covered his face with his hands, and shed tears silently.
Along with this movement, the Yishan crown on his head slipped off. He didn't care much, took it off as if to vent his anger, and threw it away.
It is said that long live the emperor, and the queen and the East Palace live a thousand years, but from the Qin and Han Dynasties to the present, how can there be a real long live emperor?
In the face of life and death, no matter how noble a person is, he is still a mortal body after all.
The emperor, who had always been invincible and resolute, felt such deep fear for the first time.
The most frightening thing is that he has no idea how to deal with this dilemma.
…
Yan Zhao came here in the middle of the night, probably because he had just been tortured, and there was a residual bloody smell on his body.
He held a stack of documents in his hand, with a complicated look on his face, and said hesitantly: "Father, you might as well go and rest first, and read again tomorrow..."
When the emperor saw this, he realized that what Brother Wen had revealed was obviously not a good thing.
He sneered and said with a mocking look on his face: "We have reached this stage, what is there that we can't bear? Submit it!"
Yan Zhao had no choice but to obey.
When he was questioned face to face before, the emperor only saw that the grandson of Brother Wen looked after him and covered him up in every possible way, so he expected that his successor must have done a very mediocre, even bad deeds, so he Even though he knew that King Yan had raised an army to quell the situation and seized the throne of his grandson, I was shocked, but more relieved than angry.
At this time, I took this interrogation record into my hand, opened it and glanced at it, I felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on my pocket, and my whole body was cold.
Not only the prince, but also the second, third, eighth, and tenth children all walked in front of him.
Although these sons were not as dear to the emperor as the prince, they were all his biological flesh and blood, especially the second and third sons - the higher the dentition order, the more emotion and energy he invested. .
There is nothing more tragic in the world than a white-haired person giving a black-haired person a gift, let alone a tragedy repeated over and over again!
The emperor felt sad in his heart and couldn't help but close his eyes. He was silent for a long time before turning to the next page.
When his eyes first fell, his mood was relatively peaceful.
In the previous life, I was forced by the situation, and after all kinds of considerations, I made the emperor's second grandson the emperor's grandson. He also cleaned the court for him, arranged vassals, sent all his sons out to guard various places, and prevented them from coming back if nothing happened. He also made laws Private contact between clans and vassals was prohibited, and insurance was increased to the highest level.
It can be said that everything that needs to be done has been done.
very good.
The emperor praised himself across time and space in his previous life, but was a little puzzled.
In such a ridiculous game, how did that beast Brother Wen lose?
Then turn to the next page——
After reading the first three lines, the emperor's face darkened. The lower his eyes moved down, the more sinister his expression became. By the end, his shock and anger were beyond words. Without saying a word, he handed over the offering book in his hand three by two. Tear it to pieces!
"This son of a bitch has been stabbed a thousand times!"
Cut off the feudal clan, cut off the feudal clan, cut off your mother’s feudal clan!
I have set up vassal kings to control the world for what purpose, haven't I explained to you clearly? !
If you want to cut down the vassal, you have to wait until you are firmly established in the world and the people's support is fully restored before you do it. Isn't it difficult to keep a low profile and bide your time? !
The people you want to kill are all your biological uncles, members of the same clan as your arms, in a slightly gentler way. Isn't this difficult? !
But what the hell did you do? !
This shitty Jianwen New Deal!
You want to restore the Zhou rites and abolish the feudal system. Where the hell are you going to sit? !
The King of Zhou was guilty, was deposed as a commoner, and was exiled to Yunnan, and the King of Min was also exiled to Zhangzhou—both of these places were barren and barren (at the time). What was the purpose of having your uncle exiled here? !
Not to mention that King Qi and King Dai were deposed as common people, and King Xiang was wronged and had no way to appeal, so he burned himself to death in his mansion!
As for King Yan - just listening to what he said before, those who didn't know thought that the fourth son was ambitious and had evil intentions. He had been coveting the throne since his nephew ascended the throne. But look at the things this bitch did, step by step. If he can bear it by forcing the fourth child to a dead end, I will feel like a loser!
Even though the emperor was angry, he was still a little happy in his heart.
The good thing is that the Fourth Brother raised an army to calm down the situation and seized the country. If he was really full of monarchs, ministers, fathers and sons, he would kill his father and his son honestly, but I don’t know how long Brother Wen, that beast, can hold on to this world!
It’s not surprising that his grave has been dug up within less than ten years after he laid down!
Yan Zhao is the recipient of first-hand information, and the emperor's reaction is not surprising, but his mood is inevitably complicated - who could have imagined that the previous life would go like this?
It had only been a few years since the founding of this dynasty. It was not because the King of Yan raised troops in time to calm down the troubles. It would not be unusual for the second generation to die like the Qin Dynasty!
At the same time, no one knows how many lives will be lost and people will suffer!
He was just watching, and he felt scared and angry, let alone the emperor who now owns the world?
Seeing his adoptive father tearing up the stack of confessions into pieces and raising them casually, Yan Zhao knew that not only were a few confessions being raised at this time, but also that he had not had time to remove them from the body of the emperor's grandson. The ashes squeezed out of...
Sure enough, the emperor didn't even hesitate for a moment, and gave the order with a ferocious face: "Kill him! Skin him and remove the grass!!!"
Yan Zhao accepted the order, but looked a little worried: "Father, you must take care of yourself..."
The emperor was silent for a moment, and finally waved his hand: "I understand. Go ahead and do it."
…
East Palace.
It's late autumn and the weather is already a little cold.
However, where is the East Palace? After the first ray of cool breeze blows from the north, the earth dragon starts to burn, and Tang Pozi heaters are all available. No matter how cold it is outside, the inside of the palace is as warm as spring.
Zhu Di got up early in the morning, changed his clothes, and went to the main hall to have dinner with the Crown Princess. In addition to caring about the Crown Princess's condition, he also wanted to find out about Zhu Yunwen's current situation.
After living all his life, could he still not know who his father and sister-in-law were?
Even if you pull out your eyelashes, they will be empty!
Just like Zhu Yunwen's two actions, he was okay in the tailwind game, but he wanted to turn around in the headwind game?
Go ahead and dream!
The East Palace has a small kitchen, not to mention that the Crown Princess is pregnant at this time, so the meals are even more elaborate.
Zhu Di took a spoonful of fish meat and put it in his mouth. He saw the confidant next to the Crown Princess coming to reply and did not avoid him.
"Your Majesty, the person in the side hall hasn't come back yet."
In the past, this could have been referring to the common people in the building, but now it could only be referring to Huangfu Wen, the second son of the East Palace.
The Crown Princess raised her long eyebrows slightly: "Where are the people who went out with him?"
The confidant shook his head gently: "He never came back either."
The Crown Princess put down the chopsticks in her hand, lowered her eyes and thought for a few moments, and then said warmly: "How many living people can be lost? Send someone out to look for them."
Then he asked: "Are the preparations in the side hall ready?"
The confidant responded: "This is not the first time that these princes have come here. There are rules for meal expenses, so you can rest assured."
The princess then stopped talking.
In just a few words, Zhu Di guessed where Zhu Yunwen was.
His father was resting in the side hall with some of his uncles last night. His mother did not interfere with this matter. The queen was weak and went to bed early. The only person in the palace who could take action against the only grandson of the East Palace was the emperor. Alone.
He didn't come back all night, maybe because he was given preferential treatment, or maybe he was stripped of his vest.
If it's a little more radical, maybe even a good scholar will be ripped into two.
Zhu Di: I hope something happens to my brother (all malicious)
He was too lazy to get involved in this matter, but he was somewhat fortunate that he listened to Ying Zheng's suggestion and did not reveal his cards in front of Zhu Yunwen just for the sake of quick gain. Otherwise, he and Zhu Yunwen would be brothers in the true sense now. .
After having breakfast at the Crown Princess's place, Zhu Di went to the Imperial Study Room to attend classes as usual. As for other matters, his grandfather and father were naturally responsible for them, so there was no need for him to worry!
However, after returning from the imperial study room, Zhu Di realized that things were bad.
Because his grandfather did not go to court today.
After being the father's son for so many years, how could he still not know his own father's temperament?
I wake up earlier than a chicken and go to bed later than a dog. I wish I could break it into twenty-four hours a day. How can I miss the court for no reason?
The princess was waiting for him. When she saw her son looking up and down, she saw that his clothes were not in violation of taboos, so she immediately took him to Qianqing Palace.
After all, they were in the palace, so they left relatively early. However, compared to the prince and the princes who rested in the East Palace last night, they were obviously much later.
But it doesn't matter.
Because in terms of results, they are all the same.
The emperor refused to see anyone, not to mention the kings and princes. Even the queen, who had been with him for many years, was blocked from the door.
Empress Duan has always been kind, but today she showed a rare expression: "Yan Zhao, your wings are stiff, how dare you stop me?!"
Yan Zhao could only kneel down to apologize and said with a wry smile: "Forgive me, my adoptive mother, how dare I do this? It's just that my adoptive father has an order to temporarily take over the affairs of the court in the East Palace. He doesn't want to see anyone today..."
After speaking, another of the emperor's confidants came over with a handwritten edict written by the emperor.
Everyone could naturally recognize the emperor's handwriting, and with his ability and courage, no one would suspect that the emperor was being held hostage at this time.
The queen had been married to him for many years and was well aware of his stubbornness and violence. When she saw this situation, she knew that he was determined to lock herself in the house. She sighed and let her children and grandchildren disperse for the time being.
Only the couple in the East Palace and the senior princes were left to discuss matters, and among the third generation, only Zhu Di, as the eldest grandson of the emperor, was able to attend.
King Zhou was the first to speak: "Father, what's going on? You were fine last night..."
He considered it carefully and said, "Is it because I'm angry with you?"
King Yan glanced at his fifth brother with a subtle look and disagreed.
The queen was upset and said: "Fourth brother, what do you mean by this expression? It's time to get to the point where you have something to say, why can't you say it directly?!"
King Yan looked around and saw that everyone was trustworthy, so he said what was in his heart: "Don't you know my father's temper? No matter how great the hatred is, it will be fine if the revenge is taken on the same day. The common man of Qin dies. It's so miserable, no matter how angry you are, it should be gone..."
Everyone has different expressions, but they all agree with this inference.
As we all know, the emperor must avenge himself, he never stays overnight, a skin for an eye, a skin for a tooth. This cannot dispel the depression in his heart, so what can he do?
Dong Gong looked worried and worried: "Is it because of poor health? In the past, when people quit the court, it was mostly due to the death of relatives. Otherwise, they were sick..."
