Beijing, late at night

In nine full strokes, the emperor collapsed.

Countless people fell to their knees, tears streaming down their faces, as they bid farewell to the king.

The new emperor's face was as pale as paper, with hot tears in his eyes, and he looked at the emperor on the bed stupidly.

He tried everything, but in the end he couldn't keep it.

Father has left him!

"Boom." With a loud noise, the empress's panicked voice sounded, "Mother, mother, call the imperial doctor."

The new emperor turned his head sharply, his face changed, and the queen mother fainted.

He hurried forward to pick up his mother and put him on the soft couch beside him.

The imperial doctor came in a hurry, but fortunately, the empress dowager was only shocked and stimulated.

The new emperor sent the empress dowager to return to the palace, and then ordered, "Call all the prince's clan and officials above the fourth rank to enter the palace to cry."

"Yes."

All the prefectures made preparations when they heard the death knell and entered the palace one after another.

The princes cried as soon as they came in, "Father, father, why did you just leave? My son is too late to give you a ride."

Since the new emperor ascended the throne, these brothers were directly sealed as princes, but they were not allowed to go to the fief, and they were not allowed to step outside the capital.

So, even if you are a prince, there is no more tout.

The people who used to gather around have dispersed, the old prince has become history, and the new prince has replaced them.

There is a qualitative difference between a father being an emperor and a brother being an emperor, and various treatments have plummeted.

Now that the Emperor Taishang passed away, their life was even worse.

The fourth prince was the first to question, "Your Majesty, how did the father die so well? I saw that he was fine the other day."

The new emperor was a little surprised. I didn't expect that the first person who jumped out was actually the fourth prince who usually burned incense and chanted Buddha.

The fourth prince's eyes filled with pain, "Father is critically ill, why didn't you call us into the palace for the last time? Why?"

The third prince, who had been banned for a long time, suddenly said, "The father died suddenly, and he was killed by the new emperor."

There was an uproar at the scene.

The doctor stood up and said, "My lord, this is a pulse case. The Emperor Taishang became seriously ill a year ago. He injured his body and bones when he was young. Half a year... After the Emperor Taishang abdicated, he has lived an extra half year, and it is already a blessing from God."

The king's pulse case was recorded very carefully, and everything is traceable.

However, the princes don't listen with their eyes closed, I don't listen.

Suddenly, there was a sound of shouting and killing, and the sound of killing was loud.

Civil and military officials look at each other, what's the situation?

A guard ran in sweating profusely, "Your Majesty, the fifth prince brought someone into the palace."

Other princes were ordered to enter the palace, but the fifth prince who was confined at home said that he was seriously ill and had difficulty getting up. As soon as he turned around, he brought an army to chaos.

Is this jealous of the late emperor? Or contempt for the new emperor?

The question is, where did this army come from? Why didn't you check it out beforehand?

The emperor looked out with a heavy expression, "Rebels, kill without mercy."

There was a timely sound from outside, "The new emperor poisoned the Taishanghuang, the crime is unforgivable, soldiers, follow me in to avenge the Taishanghuang, rush."

The rebel army was overwhelming and unstoppable. Seeing more and more persecution of the palace, the third prince attacked, "Emperor, how can you be so vicious? This is our biological father, he was forced to abdicate by you. Now, why don't you let him go?"

This is throwing dirty water on the new emperor, and a loyal minister retorted loudly, "It's all nonsense, the emperor and his father and son are deeply in love, and the emperor was seriously ill and took the initiative to abdicate. Black and white cannot be reversed."

"I don't believe it." The third prince is the most affected. Since the new emperor ascended the throne, he has also been banned, staying at home and not allowed to contact the outside world.

The thing is, this is the order of the emperor.

According to the rules, the new emperor has to wait at least one year to change the decree of the emperor.

So, even if the new emperor wanted to release these brothers, the courtiers would not agree.

The three princes were extremely emotional, and pointed to the Supreme Emperor on the bed. Barabara complained bitterly about the partiality of the Supreme Emperor, and did not treat them as sons.

Suddenly, with a loud voice, "Escort, escort."

The guard who just came in to report the letter took out a dagger and stabbed it at the new emperor, his movements were ruthless and fast.

Just when the guard was only an inch away from the new emperor, a long sword swung over and slashed at the guard's right arm, breaking it shoulder-length, the dagger fell to the ground, and blood splashed.

The guard stared blankly at the broken arm on the ground, and took three seconds to react, "Ah ah ah."

Several secret guards surrounded the new emperor group at the middle door. Standing at the front was Wei Shaohui, deputy commander of Wuyiwei, holding a blood-stained sword and staring at the third prince coldly, his eyes cold The ice is terrifying, like a hungry wolf waiting for a plane.

Murderous aura pervades the room.

I don't know how many dark guards are hiding in the dark, ready to attack at any time.

The sudden change made everyone tremble, and even the princes closed their mouths.

"You...why are you looking at me?" The third prince felt guilty.

Wei Shaohui said with an expressionless face, "You just shifted the focus, and the means of creating opportunities for the killer are too despicable."

The face of the third prince changed greatly, "You are talking nonsense, the emperor, the father's body is not cold, you start killing your feet, are you worthy of the father?"

The emperor looked at him lightly, his eyes were very indifferent.

Whether he did something, I believe everyone present saw clearly.

"Vengeance for the Supreme Emperor, revenge for the Supreme Emperor." The voices of shouting and killing were louder outside, and all the officials in the room were in danger and looked at the new emperor.

What to do?

The new emperor is very calm, just silently looking at the door.

Just when everyone was uneasy, the screams from the outside sounded violently, piercing the sky. "what."

The fifth prince is screaming.

The officials went to the door and looked out one after another, oh hello, countless bows and arrows flew towards the rebels like raindrops, and countless people fell to the ground with arrows, blood flowing.

Everyone looked in the direction of the arrows, and saw a row of men in black standing on the roof, swept against the chaos on the ground.

One row backed up, the back row made up, and it was another frenzy.

The violent bow and arrow slaughtered the rebels under the horse, unable to get close.

The black-clothed man headed by him had stern eyebrows and a dignified aura, which was honed in the battlefield.

The third prince rubbed his eyes, shocked. "Du Shaoxuan! Why is he in the capital?"

This is Du Shaoxuan, the **** of war who has experienced the baptism of war, and is also the **** of killing!

The battle between Daqi and Xiwu and Beichu caused countless casualties in the Three Kingdoms. This kind of battle is not enough to watch in front of Du Shaoxuan.

Soon, the rebels were beaten down and raised their hands to surrender.

Du Shaoxuan jumped off the roof, walked quickly to the new emperor, knelt down on one knee, "Report to the emperor, all the traitors have been captured, the interior of the palace should have been exposed, and they are being sent to Grasp."

"The entire capital is under martial law, and the Xishan military camp is under control." He took full command and brought the situation under control.

No one knows when he came or where he lives.

The new emperor bent down to help him, "Cousin has worked hard."

Du Shaoxuan looked sad, "Uncle is so kind to me, I promise him to help you, and I will do it."

Since he heard the news of the abdication of the Emperor Taishang, he stayed up all night and brought people to Beijing the next day.

On the way, he quietly crossed the enemy-occupied area, turned around, and finally came to the capital.

He saw the Taishang Emperor who was seriously ill, and smelled the danger of the coming storm, so he simply stayed in the dark to protect the new emperor.

The new emperor's eyes were slightly red, and he resisted his emotions and patted his cousin's arm.

He entrusted his life to his cousin.

The fifth prince was dragged over with several arrows in his body. The imperial physician checked the pulse, shook his head, sighed, prescribed a prescription, and boiled the medicine.

The fifth prince was lying on the ground, his whole body was in severe pain, his eyes were full of bitter hatred, "You have already found out, and deliberately put us in!"

The emperor looked calm, this is called closing the door and hitting the dog.

The fifth prince was very unwilling, "Why am I inferior to you, the sick child? Father is too partial."

They are all princes, who is more noble than whom? Who doesn't want the throne?

The new imperial residence looked down at him condescendingly, "The King of Wu rebelled, stripped the king, confiscates his family, and demoted him to a crippled person, and none of his descendants will be allowed the surname Xiao."

He promised the first emperor that he would not kill himself, but if they wanted to kill him, he would naturally fight back.

He didn't kill the fifth prince, but, stripped of the national surname, the son of the dragon and the phoenix became a commoner, I'm afraid it would be worse than death.

They are used to being pampered and have no ability to survive. The huge gap is enough to make a person collapse.

The fifth prince gritted his teeth with hatred, but so what, he was the loser.

The winner is the king and the loser is the loser.

As for the princes who offend and question him, they will all be cut off from the prince's title and banned from the outside world.

He also reminded that if there is another next time, they will send their whole family to the underground to accompany the emperor.

A vigorous palace change came to an end.

In order to pray for the Emperor Taishang, the new emperor ordered to release a group of elderly palace maids to go home.

As for the eunuchs who have reached the age of being sent out of the palace, go to the designated temple to recite the scriptures for the emperor.

In this way, the nails in the palace are basically emptied.

Two months later

Du Shaoxuan entered the palace, "Your Majesty, I came here to bid you farewell, I should go back."

These days he is busy, helping his cousin consolidate the throne, and the whole person loses weight.

At the critical moment, we still have to rely on force to deter.

The fifth prince still died of serious injuries. The emperor did not do things too well, and left five thousand taels of silver to the family of the fifth prince.

,

As long as you save some money, it can be used for a long time.

"How are you and Mu Wanqing?"

Du Shaoxuan was stunned for a moment, "She's only sixteen, so don't worry."

The emperor let out a soft sigh, "Is she ready? I asked the queen to reward her with the gift."

Du Shaoxuan smiled slightly, "That's not necessary, she didn't have the wedding ceremony, she said that she will have the coming-of-age ceremony when she is eighteen."

He also looked very proud.

Your Majesty: …What are you proud of? I don’t understand what young people think at all.

He waved his hand, and a servant came over with a brocade box.

"This is what the Emperor Taishang gave to Qingping County Master, you bring it back to her."

Du Shaoxuan was very curious, "Uncle left something for Wanqing? What is it?"

The Emperor Taishang also left a few things for him, just as a thought. However, Mu Wanqing also had a share, which was beyond his expectations.

The emperor shook his head slightly, "It's sealed, I don't know, go back and tell the Qingping county master that the Qingping county master's mansion in the capital has been waiting for the master's return."

At the beginning, she also gave Mu Wanqing a county seat in the capital.

Du Shaoxuan:? ? What do you mean?
