The new emperor wears a plain blue dragon robe inside, and hemp wears filial piety outside.
If it weren't for the Yishan crown on his head, I'm afraid no one would recognize this as the emperor of Dachang.
It was only three watch today, and he woke up. When the father is at the funeral, as a son, even the emperor cannot relax. After finally giving up all the tedious ceremonies, and walking along for so long, he was already exhausted, and he was all supported by all his strength.
After leaving the capital, he can take the car, and even if he wants to show up on the road behind, he doesn't need to be so tired.
The new emperor was so encouraging himself in his heart, and suddenly there was a commotion in front of him, and the team stopped for it.
He wondered if the Ministry of Rites had done another ritual in front of him, but he didn't think much about it, just enough to stop and rest.
At this moment, an official from the Ministry of Rites came to pass a message, saying that the funeral procession was blocked by His Majesty's honor guard.
The surroundings were too noisy, and in order to cooperate with the funeral ceremony, no matter if they were hurt or not, everyone was crying. Especially those who wear sacks and filial piety as filial sons and filial grandsons, not to mention the people on both sides of the road, also cried heartbroken.
The new emperor didn't understand the meaning for a long time, until the person who reported it said it again.
"Zhen Luan? You are so confused by the day." He sneered in surprise.
The officials of the Ministry of Rites who came to report to the concubine said, "Your Majesty, Wei Chen didn't joke, it's really His Majesty's honor guard, and the battle was seen from the palace. Whoever made such a scene, we all know that the late emperor was going to the funeral today. It's so hard to get a vice-law to drive a book! This is going to collide, and it doesn't match the gift!"
Seeing this, the new emperor had to face it, thinking of what the official said, his heart tensed in vain.
"Let someone call Mr. Yang Ge."
The accompanying eunuch hurriedly went to the back to find old Yang Ge.
At the same time, the situation on the field changed again, and the sound of horse hooves and neat footsteps was heard, and it seemed that the whole earth was shaking.
From time to time, there will be hurried exclamations, but they will stop abruptly, making people wonder what happened, but the bad feeling in Xindi's heart is getting stronger and stronger.
Because Yang Ge has never come, he can't help urging people to look for it again, and the scene is a mess.
The people around looked at the new emperor in confusion, including the fifth prince.
He stepped forward to ask, but was shoved away by the new emperor, only the second prince hooked his lips in an unclear way, and immediately raised his eyebrows with a dignified look, looking up at the unknown front.
Yang Chonghua, who was wearing a filial attire, came soon, but he didn't understand the situation at all.
At this moment, the white piece in front of him was visibly shorter, and the one holding the dragon flag and the guard of honor also became shorter.
The coffin bearer who was carrying the dragon coffin suddenly saw such a scene, and some people were shocked and vented, and with a loud bang, the huge dragon coffin fell to the ground.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
The surprise clicks in his throat came one after another, like a large group of chickens strangled at the same time.
"It's haunted, His Majesty is still alive!"
With this shouting, chaos broke out in front, and even spread to the surrounding people who were sending spirits.
The huge funeral procession suddenly turned into a pot of porridge. Some people shouted in panic, some hurriedly ran, you pushed me and I shoved you, and from time to time some people made the scream of being trampled.
"Silence! All stand still and don't move!"
It turned out that this place was surrounded by people a long time ago. Seeing the crowd surging, the soldiers who were surrounded by the surrounding took out their sabers and took a step forward.
The chaotic crowd froze.
At this time, an official riding a tall horse suddenly appeared in the book of Fajia Lu on the opposite side.
Different from those officials standing in the funeral procession, he was wearing a vermilion gold embroidered python robe, which was the expression of a supreme official.
"Don't panic, everyone, go to the soldiers one by one and then go out. This is the royal family's private affairs. The first emperor did not die. The new emperor is trying to usurp the throne. I am here to eliminate treacherous evil and have nothing to do with the common people. "
It was Xue Tingxiang who was supposed to be in the funeral procession.
This word was spread, and finally no one bumped into the crowd. On the contrary, after the dragon coffin, the new emperor and the others were shocked.
The scene was quickly cleaned up, and the dragon coffin, which was full of dragons and sun, moon, and stars of various shapes, was thrown there alone, and no one cared about it.
The Xindi and Yang Chonghua and the others looked at the passing jade carriage with pale faces. Along with the car dealership, in addition to Ding Guogong's lineage, there were also a number of civil servants such as Xue Tingxiang, Ye Ju, Lin Miao, and some soldiers with unfamiliar faces.
These people are from the Southeast Asia Navy, and Xue Tingxiang has been waiting for these people to come.
The jade beads curtain has long been lifted, revealing the majestic Jiacheng Emperor wearing a bright yellow dragon robe and a crown of Yishan.
His face was calm, but his eyes were cold.
"You are really my good sons, good ministers."
Xindi's legs were weak and fell to the ground.
This day is destined to be a day that will go down in history.
With the return of Emperor Jiacheng, the conspiracy of the Xindi family was completely exposed.
In fact, the decree that Tan Shoufu took out, and even Mao Wenhao and others, just wanted to muddy the water. Only when the new emperor's lineage is in chaos can we take advantage of it.
And Xue Tingxiang has been keeping his troops still, in addition to looking for opportunities to take advantage of, he is also waiting for the Southeast Ocean Navy. The surrender of the second prince's lineage did not make him completely reassured. In the absence of absolute strength on his own side, easy cooperation would undoubtedly be scheming with a tiger.
Fortunately, the sailors arrived quickly.
The sky in the Forbidden City changed overnight, and it took half a month to clear the rebels. In the past two weeks, Emperor Jiacheng did not return to the palace, but still lived in Xue's residence.
It was only then that Ning Ning discovered that the old grandfather who had been living in the main courtyard and robbed his parents' bed turned out to be the emperor.
And the uncle who always talked to her behind her parents' back was actually the emperor's son.
"Then, the emperor's grandfather, why don't you go back to the palace?" Ning Ning, who was wearing a double bun and a pink dress, blinked at Emperor Jiacheng on the couch.
The period since the palace change occurred is probably the biggest sudden change in Emperor Jiacheng's life.
From a dignified king of a country, to being killed and fleeing, there is always fear of life. And its dragon body has also changed from good hands and feet to a living dead who can't even defecate on the couch.
Vulnerability, anger and all kinds of things in my heart, naturally need not be mentioned. And the little girl in front of him is probably the only one who can make him smile.
Because it was obviously offensive, Emperor Jiacheng not only was not annoyed, but said: "You are so looking forward to the emperor's grandfather leaving?"
Ning Ning glanced at him and said, "That's not true, but my mother said that the emperor's grandfather will return to the palace sooner or later. Now those bad guys have been arrested, why don't you go back?"
"Because there are too many bad people, I need to clean them up one by one before I can return to the palace with peace of mind."
At this moment, Mo Jia walked in from the door, followed by an imperial physician with a medicine box.
The imperial physician approached, first knelt down and kowtowed, then stood up and respectfully gave Emperor Jiacheng a pulse.
"Why are you running here again?" Morgan said with a smile.
It was obviously a joke, but how could the little girl understand this? Instead, she glanced at him and said, "Uncle, aren't you here too?"
Morgan smiled helplessly.
Ning Ning said to Emperor Jiacheng: "Grandpa Emperor, then I won't disturb you, I'll go to the second brother."
"Go."
After seeing the little girl away, Emperor Jiacheng looked at Mo Jia.
Mo Jia said solemnly: "The concubine Ma, as well as the others from the Silijian, are all temporarily detained in the Department of Prudence and Punishment, in the Imperial Guard..."
It is said that it is to eliminate the traitorous party, but in fact the process is complicated.
Xue Tingyan, Ye Ju and other ministers supported the court, and Mo Jia was on the other side of the palace.
Until Mo Jia appeared out of thin air, everyone knew that Emperor Jiacheng actually had a son who did not show his face in front of others. There is no doubt, but seeing him come forward to dominate everything in the palace, some people can't help but guess whether he will become the heir of the future emperor after this incident.
It's a pity that it's too early to say these things. This time, the third prince's rebellion involves a lot.
From the former dynasty to the harem, and even the eunuchs and maids in the palace, there are many involved. In particular, Jiacheng Emperor Cup Bow Snake Shadow would rather kill by mistake than let it go. There are several uninhabited palaces in the palace that are full of these involved people.
In fact, Emperor Jiacheng can understand that, I am afraid that any other person, after experiencing such an incident, will not be much bigger than him.
The emperor's anger and the corpse of a million people can be imagined.
After reporting the general situation in the palace, Mo Jia asked, "I don't know when His Majesty will return to the palace?"
"When will you return to the palace?"
Emperor Jiacheng looked at this small room and suddenly felt a little melancholy.
"Then tomorrow."
The next day, early in the morning, in front of the gate of the Xue Mansion, the emperor's travel book was full of dharma books. Jin Yiwei, who came back again, glanced around eagerly, not letting go of a fly.
In fact, Jin Yiwei did not betray, but Du Jipeng was secretly attacked. Xue Tingxiang and others found Du Jipeng in Jinyiwei prison.
He was no longer in human form, and he was only breathing his last breath.
The second prince dealt with him at first, but he didn't want to let him do bad things, so he bought one of his concubine to drug him, and then Du Jipeng fell into the hands of Yang Chonghua and other civil servants.
It is probably because of a natural resentment against Jin Yiwei, or it may be that Du Jipeng was serving the Emperor Jiacheng and harmed many civil servants.
Yang Chonghua and others attacked him harshly, and Jin Yiwei tortured him in turn.
Now Du Jipeng has become a waste, and Wei Yunjie has been promoted to the commander of Jinyiwei because of his ability to protect the master. He was wearing a flying fish suit and led the team to protect him, which was daunting.
Emperor Jiacheng's Luan Jia quickly left here. Xue Tingxiang wrapped his arms around Zhao'er's shoulder, looked at Luan Jia's back in the distance, and sighed, "It's finally over."
"It's finally over!"
Of course it's not the past, there's more to come.
After Emperor Jiacheng returned to the dynasty, he began to liquidate the ministers headed by Yang Chonghua.
The Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment and the Metropolitan Procuratorate all dispatched to list the various crimes of this group of people.
There was a turmoil in the hall, and everyone was in danger.
It's okay to be involved, it's good to be able to drop a whole corpse. Some were not involved in it, but those who were somewhat related to these people were all afraid of being involved.
At times like this, there are always people who fish in troubled waters, some who finally find an opportunity to suppress their opponents, and some who slap others in order to exonerate themselves. As a result, the current courtroom is more chaotic than ever, with ministers attacking each other every morning, and there is a smog.
This winter in Jiacheng's 21st year is colder than ever. As time passed, countless ministers fell from their horses in the court hall, and they were half empty in an instant.
In the cabinet lobby, Lin Miao sighed, "When will this be a head?"
Ye Ju and Zheng Yunjie on the side, as well as Xue Tingxiang and Chen Jian sitting next to them, were all speechless with heavy faces.
Yang Chonghua's entire lineage was imprisoned, and four of the eight cabinet ministers in the cabinet went. Tan Shoufu is old, and Ma Qi, Minister of Industry, was thrown so much, because he is old, and he has not yet recovered from the disease.
Now there are only Ye Ju and Lin Miao in the cabinet. As for Zheng Yunjie, Chen Jian, and Xue Tingxiang, they were all temporarily arrested to help.
Now, in addition to recuperating the dragon body, Emperor Jiacheng is concerned about the rebellion of the Party all day long, and all government affairs are placed on the head of the cabinet, which can be regarded as a wreck.
"It won't work if it goes on like this. Even if there are still officials waiting for candidates, they can fill up all of them in a while. Now Yang Dang, Feng Dang and others seem to have tasted the sweetness and are biting around. I guess it won't be long. , people on our side will be bitten in a lot." Zheng Yunjie said.
"But whoever dares to persuade your Majesty like this, I'm afraid the first one will be angered." Ye Ju said with a wry smile.
"Persuasion must be persuaded, but we just have to think of a way. Let's go back and get the charter. How about we discuss it later?"
It can only be so.
Several people nodded heavily, and went down to work on their own.
Xue Tingxiang entered the palace the next day and asked to see Emperor Jiacheng before the articles of association of the cabinet were released.
In the face of Xue Tingxiang, Emperor Jiacheng, who has always been in a rage recently, is still somewhat pleasant.
But before he said a few words, the atmosphere froze.
"Your Majesty should know that when the water is clear, there will be no fish. The relationship between the court and the court is intertwined. In the same year, the same family, the same hometown, the same teacher, this is something that cannot be avoided in all dynasties and dynasties. If this is the case, Dachang will have no one to use."
"Xue Tingxiang, you are so brave!"
There was a loud shout from the first place, and Xue Tingxiang immediately knelt down.
But his head is high, and his eyes are looking directly at the emperor on the dragon chair.
Emperor Jiacheng's recovery was not good. The reason for his sudden fall was a bowl of medicine, and this bowl of medicine, coupled with his persistent dizziness, had crushed his seemingly strong dragon, but in fact he had already become ill from overwork. body.
Although countless imperial physicians gathered, and many famous doctors from all over the country paid tribute to him, it only made him unable to move his entire body, to a simple sitting and lying, but unable to walk.
Even if he sits for a long time, he can't support it, but Zhezi can approve and read, but he can't get tired.
All this made Emperor Jiacheng hate and hate those civil servants who acted for the tiger.
If it wasn't for their instigation, with the courage of the second and third princes, they would not dare and would not disobey. Forcing the palace seems simple, but in fact there are too many places to operate. At least according to the regulations, when the emperor is about to leave, he must leave a will, and this will need to be witnessed, drafted and formulated by several important officials before it can be announced to the world.
And was it the dragon chair that forced the palace to seize it
No, the world won is also imperial power.
Without the power of the court, the Forbidden City alone cannot be called the emperor, and the exercise of the power of the court requires the courtiers and even the officials who walk all over the country to exercise.
So it wasn't this group of daring civil servants, there would have been no such thing, so Emperor Jiacheng took out his anger.
As more and more officials were involved, these people tried to get rid of their crimes. Some people even revealed that the prince died young, and some of the courtiers secretly moved their hands and feet.
This incident happened too long ago to trace the root cause, but it completely angered the already red-eyed Jiacheng Emperor.
It was just a word with no beginning and no end, and even the courtier who said it could not tell the source of it, but it also set off a bloody storm, which lasted for half a year, from Jiacheng twenty-one years to two years. Twelve years of great purges have become as if there is no end in sight.
Xue Tingxiang thought that this anger would not last long due to Emperor Jiacheng's wisdom. Unfortunately, some of it caught him by surprise. He could not even sit still, so he entered the palace at the risk of angering the emperor.
"If Your Majesty is just an ordinary person and doesn't bear the burden of the country, he can do whatever he wants, but it's not!"
"Xue Tingxiang, you are bold, bold!" Emperor Jiacheng was so angry that he was afraid of the dragon case.
With the thumping sound, the eunuch who was standing on one side had already knelt down.
The current emperor is not the emperor of the past, he has become more moody and irritable. The courtiers and eunuchs standing by his side are always in danger of losing their heads.
They were shaking with fear, and some even wet their pants.
Looking at Emperor Jiacheng, whose beard was furious and his face twisted, a hint of disappointment flashed in Xue Tingxiang's eyes. He still didn't lower his head, but let Emperor Jiacheng clearly see the disappointment in his eyes.
"Wei Chen thought that His Majesty's civil and martial arts far surpassed Qin Huang's and Han Wu, and in the future his name in history books should be an emperor through the ages. But Wei Chen was wrong! Now that Dachang is in ruins, it is a good time. It is a good time for His Majesty to show off his grand plans. The Haiyan Heqing and Taiping prosperous times in Dachang are in the present, but His Majesty simply indulges in hatred, and allows the dignified court to become a pot of porridge. Officials do not work, do not seek for the common people Well-being, but immersed in court battles, the party is fighting against differences, a group of demons dances wildly, and the smoky atmosphere is different from when Wu, Yang, Feng and others were still there before?"
"Xue Tingxiang, have you said enough?"
"Wei Chen didn't say enough!"
When he said this, Xue Tingxiang stood up, and his thin body was high and straight: "Wei Chen thought this incident was just an unevenness in His Majesty's journey to become an emperor through the ages, and it could easily be crossed. But Wei Chen was wrong. Now! It not only crushed His Majesty's dragon body, but also defeated His Majesty's heart of an emperor. At the time, Wei Chen and even Wei Chen's wife tried their best to risk their family being executed because they wanted to see His Majesty leading Dachang , to move towards a truly peaceful and prosperous world, instead of watching His Majesty harm the entire country because of his anger and personal resentment.
"Your Majesty is only in the age of his destiny, and he is very old and senile since ancient times. Could it be that His Majesty intends to pass the throne to which prince, and from then on, he will become the Supreme Emperor? Is His Majesty really willing? If so, Wei Chen has nothing to say. Now, Wei Chen has angered Your Majesty, and he already has the heart to die, and he is willing to bow his head and die!"
"Get out! Pull him down!" Emperor Jiacheng smashed down a piece of paperweight with shaking hands, and it fell into broken flowers on the ground of gold bricks.
Li Shun obeyed and walked up shaking his legs.
He wanted to push Xue Tingxiang, who was there with the pestle, but he didn't dare, so he could only begged in a low voice: "Master Xue, please, don't say a word, Your Majesty's dragon body is ill, and you can't be angry."
Xue Tingyan's anger suddenly let out. He lifted the hem of his official robe, knelt down and kowtowed before backing out.
After he left, the hall was dead silent, only the unsteady breathing of Emperor Jiacheng could be heard.
All the eunuchs bowed their heads, eager to tuck their heads into their crotch.
I don't know how long has passed, Mo Jia, who received the news, came in a hurry.
Wearing a dark blue prince's uniform, he looked extraordinarily handsome and unrestrained, but the light and slightly bluish eyes revealed that he still had a foreign bloodline.
However, as the first person to rescue Emperor Jiacheng this time, he is the only one who can get Emperor Jiacheng's face in recent days. But because another person who can get Emperor Jiacheng's good looks, he was irritated today, so that Emperor Jiacheng didn't have a good face when he saw him.
"What are you here for?"
"My son heard that Lord Xue entered the palace, and angered the father..."
"Are you here to get in the way?" Emperor Jiacheng asked with an unclear attitude.
Mo Jia nodded frankly: "This Xue Tingxiang is really bold, relying on his father's favor for him, he dares to talk nonsense. My son, please dismiss his official and assign him to Qiongzhou..."
Another paperweight smashed down.
"You also get out of my way!"
So Morgan went away.
After leaving the Qianqing Palace, one of the eunuchs beside him whispered: "Why do you need to speak on behalf of Lord Xue, my servant remembers that you are not used to seeing him."
Mo Jia glanced at him: "Your Highness speaks for him?" He just didn't want to see her as a widow, and he didn't want to see that girl without a father.
The little eunuch immediately lowered his head: "That's not true."
"I'm here to get down."
…
As soon as Xue Tingxiang walked out of Qianqingmen, he saw Lin Miao and Chen Jian hurriedly approaching not far away.
"Child, why do you have to take such a risk here!" Lin Miao sighed.
Chen Jian was hesitant to say anything, but his eyes were full of worry.
"There is always someone to say this. For me, it's much safer than what Mr. Ye said, and even for Lord Ye. No matter how crazy your majesty is, he will always be concerned about a love of incense and won't do anything to me."
"Then what did His Majesty say?"
Xue Tingyan smiled and touched his nose: "Your Majesty let me get out."
