The bustling streets in the west of the city on weekdays are now sparsely populated. In the past, the bustling pawnshops and taverns lined the streets, and even the most diligent hawkers have long since disappeared. Only the wide avenues are left in the lonely extended. Instead, there were more Imperial Guards, holding shields in their left hands and swords in their right hands. Their armor as hard as iron exuded a serious and stern aura. The resolute expressions on the faces of the soldiers all showed their confidence in fighting against the puppets.
It turned out that the emperor sent additional guards to prevent the puppets from acting mischievous again, and took part of the guards guarding the palace to deal with the puppets, but even so, the imperial guards and guards had nothing to do with the puppets. Because the puppets always come and go in the middle of the night, and the night coincides with the changing of the guards, and people's will is the weakest and the easiest to let go of their vigilance. The puppets seem to have taken a fancy to this, and they always choose to make trouble in the middle of the night and succeed many times , which made the imperial guards and guards very tired.
In the Palace of the Seventh Prince, Yang Tingjing frowned when he heard about this incident. On the one hand, he felt uneasy about the safety of the people in the city, and on the other hand, he worried that if he took action to resolve the matter, the emperor would be suspicious of him. He remained silent. , secretly thinking about what to do.
Fenghuang walked slowly to Yang Tingjing's side, and seeing him silent, he knew what Yang Tingjing was worried about, so he came up with an idea and said, "It's better to let your Twelve Songs take someone to calm this matter down, quietly, don't make trouble. There was too much movement. It only made the imperial guards feel that it was because of their appearance that the puppets restrained themselves, and it also let me see how powerful the Twelve Songs of the capital are. I have never seen them fit together before." Fenghuang said, and smiled mischievously.
Yang Tingjing raised his head after hearing Fenghuang's voice. He stretched out his hand, gently stroked Fenghuang's stomach, and said with a smile, "As expected of my Xieyuhua, we want to go together." Fenghuang didn't speak, just Looking at Yang Tingjing affectionately, his eyes are full of tenderness. Therefore, Yang Tingjing secretly sent Twelve Songs to lead people to solve it, and the puppet incident finally calmed down.
In the palace, there are two scenes that are completely opposite to the streets in the west of the city.
The afternoon sun was exceptionally warm, and the flowers in the imperial garden were in full bloom. The court ladies and eunuchs were scrambling to collect flower petals, trying to please their masters. After waking up in the morning, the emperor was taking a walk in the imperial garden. He seemed to be in a good mood. There was a smile on his slightly upturned mouth, and he was also kind to the court ladies and eunuchs who followed him. Needless to say, the prosperous scene in front of him made him feel satisfied The important thing is that at noon today, the emperor received a secret letter saying that the Seventh Prince's Mansion has been very peaceful recently and has not taken any action.
This news made him feel relieved. The emperor thought that he hadn't seen Yang Tingxing for a long time, and still wanted to tell him about Yang Tingjing, so he turned his head and said to the personal eunuch: "Call Yang Tingxing into the palace."
In the main hall, Yang Tingxing hurried over, although he didn't know why the emperor summoned him, but the king's order was hard to break, so he put aside the matter at hand and rushed to the palace as soon as possible. He bowed to the emperor, and the emperor said: "Excuse me, sit down first."
At this moment, the emperor is struggling with how to speak to Yang Tingxing, so that he should be wary of Yang Tingjing. In the emperor's heart, his intuition told him that although Yang Tingjing had no sense of existence before, such a calm person often had the most city in his heart, so he was afraid that Yang Tingjing would bring Yang Tingxing a lot of trouble in the future, so he thought He acted first and gave Yang Tingxing a warning.
Even though he was thinking like this, it was hard to say it clearly, after all, they were brothers, besides, Yang Tingxing's temperament was straight, if he said it directly, Yang Tingxing would definitely not accept it, hesitating and hesitating, the emperor fell into silence.
Yang Tingxing beside him was confused, and hurriedly called him into the palace, but he didn't say a word. In the end, he couldn't bear it any longer, and asked, "I don't know why my father called me here?"
Yang Tingxing's voice dragged the emperor back to reality, he came back to his senses, suddenly remembered that no tea was served to Yang Tingxing, and said: "I called you here in a hurry, let's have some tea first." So he ordered the eunuch to serve the tea. A West Lake Dragon Well. Seeing Yang Tingxing drinking tea, the emperor said: "Lao Liu, you are my own son, so naturally I won't harm you, so let's just say it."
When Yang Tingxing heard what the emperor said, he couldn't help laughing, and said: "Father, the ninety-five-year-old emperor, has always kept his promises, so what can't be said clearly?"
"I want you to be careful of Yang Tingjing!" The emperor said the key point, he thought that only in this way could he attract Yang Tingxing's attention. Sure enough, Yang Tingxing, who was drinking tea, was startled slightly, and the hand holding the teacup remained motionless, his suddenly dilated pupils were enough to see how shocked Yang Tingxing was. After regaining his senses, he put down the teacup and asked, "I don't know why the father made such a statement?"
The emperor sighed, and said: "I knew you didn't believe me. This Yang Tingjing is silent on weekdays and looks very weak, but who can guarantee that he has no city mansion and is loyal?"
After hearing this, Yang Tingxing frowned, thinking in his heart, when did the father become so suspicious? Why do you have to doubt even your own brother, let alone someone like Yang Tingjing who has no sense of existence? Yang Tingxing wanted to defend Yang Tingjing, and said: "I think the father is worrying too much. The seventh brother is weak and sick, so there is no doubt that he is ignorant of world affairs. Besides, you clearly know that I have nothing to do with him. I have a very good relationship with you, so why come to me and say that he is not good?"
Seeing that his kind reminder was misunderstood by Yang Tingxing, the emperor still asked himself like this, and his heart was even more angry. He was used to saying the same thing, but suddenly someone came out to talk back to him. The emperor couldn't control his emotions for a while, and blurted out: "Presumptuous ! Kindly remind me, but you don't appreciate it, and dare to talk to me like that!"
Yang Tingxing thought to himself, just now he was so annoyed, he was so amiable just now, he is really a companion like a tiger... The anger in his heart intensified, he put the tea bowl in his hand on the table with a "bang", and stood up awkwardly , and said loudly: "Then thank you for your kind reminder! The seventh brother has been keeping himself safe. I don't know why he has summoned the suspicion of the father. I am really wronged for him!" After finishing speaking, he strode out of the palace. Regardless of the emperor's anger behind him.
After Yang Tingxing left, the emperor's anger gradually calmed down, and finally he sighed and said to himself: "I knew he would react like this, alas, all my painstaking efforts were wasted."
The eunuch serving beside him couldn't bear to see the emperor's slumped look, so he brought a cup of tea and comforted the emperor, saying: "Your Majesty, don't worry too much, it's important to take care of the dragon's body. The sixth prince must have his own judgment when he said this. "
The emperor took the teacup, took a sip, and said: "I am most worried about him. He has no intentions and does not set up defenses against others. Pass my order and send someone to secretly protect the sixth child." After the eunuch responded Back off silently.
The more Yang Tingxing left the palace, the more he thought about it, the more he felt wronged for Yang Tingjing. It was really unreasonable for him to be careful of him even though he was suspected by the emperor as a traitor and traitor even though he was clearly ignorant of worldly affairs. Yang Tingxing wanted to find someone to talk to, so he immediately thought of Yang Tingjing. He couldn't wait to tell Yang Tingjing about this matter, and wanted him to comment and have a drink with him.
