Zhu Youjian slowly opened his eyes and saw a human face in the haze.
It was not Cao Huachun, nor the palace maids and eunuchs on duty tonight, but Lin San, who had just been promoted by him to become the governor of Dongchang.
"How did you come?"
Compared to before, he was a little more feverish and unconscious.
Lin Yue said: "I come to ask your Majesty a few questions."
Zhu Youjian was a little unhappy: "You are disturbing me so late. What do you want to ask?"
Lin Yue said: "I would like to ask the man named Zhou Tai who hurt your majesty what his facial features are. After that, he could put up notices nationwide to arrest him, but he dared to murder your majesty. Not punishing the nine tribes is not enough to punish his evil."
Zhu Youjian thought for a moment and said, "He has a blue birthmark on the left side of his face and staggered scars on the right side of his face. In terms of body shape, he is almost the same as you."
Lin Yue looked at him and smiled, covering his face with his wide sleeves, and making a gesture of uncovering something on his face with his other hand.
"Your Majesty, do you think this is the face?"
As the sleeves of the robe fell, an impressive face of Zhu Youjian appeared on the opposite side.
Zhou Tai.
Exactly the same.
"you you you……"
"Your Majesty, how are you doing after not seeing you for a long time?" Even the voice changed this time.
Zhu Youjian felt a chill going from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
He still doesn't understand that Zhou Tai and Lin San are the same person!
"Cao Huachun, Wang Chengen..."
Lin Yue raised the sleeves of his robe again, and took his next breath away. Zhou Tai's face was replaced by one full of burn scars, and his voice also changed accordingly.
"Your Majesty, there is no need to shout. They slept soundly. I don't think they will get up until the next day."
For Zhu Youjian, this voice is very familiar... so familiar that it cannot be more familiar, because that is his voice.
"What do you want to do? What do you want to do!"
"What?"
Lin Yue came close to his bandaged face: "Don't worry, from now on I will take care of you and your brother's women, and I will take charge of your Zhu family."
When someone else becomes a receiver, they either pick up someone who has died in the stomach, or pick up a bus that runs on the road, or they pick up a man who is disheartened in love and finds a man as a long-term meal ticket, or buy one, get one free, or even buy one One for two, what will I, the receiver, get? There are also seventy-two concubines in the three palaces and six courtyards of the two young emperors in the Zhu family. Thinking about it makes me very excited.
Is this considered the first receiver in history?
Zhu Youjian began to struggle and wanted to get up from the bed, but he was too weak to put up a decent resistance, let alone fight.
"What? You're not convinced. It's better for me to take over this emperor than for you to give your country to the Tatars."
Lin Yue pinched Zhu Youjian's throat and pushed it to that side. There was a soft click and the person on the bed became silent.
At the same time, a prompt came from the system, the side mission was completed, +1CM, the current value is sixteen.
Throwing Zhu Youjian into the system space casually, Lin Yue took out the ointment he had prepared a long time ago, applied a large painted face on himself, then wrapped a bandage and lay down on the dragon bed. Looking at the five-clawed real dragon embroidery above his head, he suddenly felt a little excited. I'm unhappy. It's good to be the emperor, but before that I have to pretend to be a patient for a few days. I can't eat or drink. I just lie on the bed with nothing to do all day long. It's a waste of life.
…
In ancient times, burns could be cured, but infections could not. Just say that you were showered with gold juice during the war, which is basically the rhythm of doing your best and obeying fate.
Most of Zhu Youjian's face was damaged by the evil fire, and his shoulders, hands, and back were also burned to varying degrees. In the opinion of the imperial doctors, even with the best medicine, the chance of surviving such an injury was less than 30%. .
However, what surprised everyone was that His Majesty the Emperor had a high fever for two days, and suddenly woke up in the early morning of the third day. He could eat and talk, and even got out of bed and walked for a while.
The imperial doctors all said that this was a miracle, and the eunuchs and maids said that the emperor was protected by the gods. As for those civil servants and generals who had heard the news and were already preparing for Emperor Chongzhen's funeral, they were really stunned.
In contrast to the emperor's good fortune, Eunuch Lin, the admiral of the East Factory who had only taken office for less than a day, disappeared. Someone found his coat and an unidentified dead body on the moat. The Jin Yiwei gave the result that Eunuch Lin was because of He fought against Wei Zhongxian and was hated by the remnants of the eunuchs, so he launched a sneak attack on Eunuch Lin who did not come home from work until midnight. Although there was no body at the scene, there had been no movement in the past ten days, so Eunuch Lin was probably dead.
After walking through the gate of hell, Emperor Chongzhen's face changed drastically. His face was covered with scars caused by burns, and his original features were almost missing. He even lost weight. However, because the voice has not changed and the handwriting has not changed, even if the personality and memory are different from before, no one will think that there is a thief who steals the country and replaces the emperor.
After Lin Yue "got well", he issued three imperial edicts. The first was to order Han Kuang to unseale Wei Zhongxian's manor and liquidate all kinds of materials.
The second order was to vigorously support Lin San's family, grant seven altars for sacrifice, and choose another mansion for his widow.
Because the emperor has improved, there is no need to hide what happened at Wei Zhongxian's manor. To put it bluntly, if it were not for Lin San, the emperor might be dead, so no one would object to him doing this, and no one would dare to object to him doing this. .
The third order was to redress the injustice of the Zhou family as soon as possible, and at the same time, ordered people to go to Hangzhou to take Beizhai back to Beijing.
The ministers also didn't dare to say anything, because the emperor survived the disaster and it was understandable that he wanted a new woman to play with. Men... how many are not lustful?
…
The twelfth lunar month.
Snowy night.
No return.
The candlelight flickered in Kunning Palace, and the maids and eunuchs were leaning on the brazier in the front hall to keep out the cold. Zhang Yan was lying on the bed, covered with a bright red quilt, but she didn't feel warm at all. Her hands and feet were cold, and her body was curled up.
For more than half a month, what she fears most is going to bed, because there is a little eunuch missing from the bed, an irreplaceable little eunuch.
In the first half of the month, she tried not to cry, imagining that Lin San would come back just like the last time he disappeared. But there was no movement until the twelfth lunar month. Just today, she sent away the maids and eunuchs on duty, hid in bed and cried for a while. Her tears wet the pillow, and there was a clammy feeling on her skin that could not be driven away by the charcoal fire.
"emperor."
I heard voices of surprise and shock coming from outside. The palace maid on duty walked into the room, went to the bedside and whispered across the curtain: "Your Majesty, the Emperor is here."
Zhang Yan didn't know why the emperor came to Kunning Palace so late. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, put on her coat and walked to the front hall while the palace maid served.
"I wonder why your uncle came to Kunning Palace so late?"
She made a wish, lowered her head and asked, not daring to raise her head to look at that face.
There was no warmth in the greeting, and the tone was very stiff. Of course Lin Yue knew why. From Zhang Yan's perspective, he was still her husband-killing enemy. Even his new love Lin San was attacked and killed because he helped him investigate Wei Zhongxian. .
Lin Yue did not answer. He looked around and said to the eunuchs and maids: "You guys, please go out. I have something to talk to the emperor's wife."
The young eunuchs and maids on duty in Kunning Palace who came with him did not dare to disobey his orders and filed out of the room.
When there were only two people left in the room, Lin Yue walked over in one stride, pulled Zhang Yan into his arms while looking at her in shock and confusion, and held her cold hand.
"Uncle, you...let me go, I am your sister-in-law, let go..."
She struggled hard, trying to push him away.
At this moment, a question penetrated the ear.
"Are you so resistant? Is the minister really leaving?"
This voice!
Zhang Yan raised her head suddenly.
At this time, Lin Yue put his hand on his face and looked over with a smile.
Zhang Yan rubbed her eyes again and again, and was so surprised that she couldn't speak.
"You...how could you?"
Lin Yue took her hand that was starting to get hot and said: "I said that I would help the late emperor to avenge him so that the empress would not have to feel guilty. I also said that Zhou Tai would be the emperor, and I... would always be the empress's little eunuch."
He leaned close to her ear and said, "Outside, I am Zhou Tai, and on your bed, I am Lin San."
Zhou Tai, Lin San, the emperor, the eunuch...
Zhang Yanfan suddenly realized that whether it was "Zhu Youjian", Zhou Tai, or Lin San, they were all the same person now.
Kill Zhu Youjian to avenge Zhu Youxiao; Zhou Tai becomes emperor; he wants to stay with her forever.
He did fulfill his promise, in this appalling way...
Zhang Yan didn't know what to say.
"It's too cold outside, so it's better to stay warm under the covers." Lin Yue put his hands around her legs, picked her up, and walked to the inner room.
Zhang Yan looked at his side face and said, "Aren't you afraid that the ministers will say you are a fool by occupying the emperor's wife?"
"Whoever dares to speak nonsense will have their heads chopped off."
"You are really a fool."
…
Another month has passed.
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the Lantern Festival.
The eunuch sent to Hangzhou to pick up the people came back, and Hokusai came with him.
After three days of rest, he adjusted his physical and mental state, painted his eyebrows and hair, applied red and pink makeup, and put on luxurious and beautiful palace clothes and jewelry. Hokusai was arranged to enter the palace on the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, and she took her with her. What she also carried was a love letter written by the emperor to her.
Sure enough, just like Zhou Tai said, the emperor has always been thinking of her... Although she hates the person named Zhou now - because the emperor said in a letter to her that Zhou Taixing assassinated him and destroyed him. content.
She said that she didn't care. In her heart, he would always be that romantic young man. As long as she could be with him, she would have nothing else to ask for in this life.
