After I bloom, a hundred flowers will kill

Chapter 779 Can't touch the power center anymore

"Second brother is dead." At the gate of the city, Xiao Changyan in disguise stared at the notice.

The prince's treason, such a serious crime must be announced to the world, and the death of a parent and child must be made clear, otherwise how will the world think about His Majesty.

The charges on the notice were clearly written, but Xiao Changyan knew that this was just the result of Xiao Changmin's defeat in the game, just like himself now like a bereaved dog.

He survived, but he knew that he completely lost the chance to compete for that position. Most of his shadow guards were lost. This time Minjiang was defeated and ruined so many elite soldiers of the imperial court. Punish him and give the court an explanation.

"Your Highness, let's go into the city." Xiao Changfeng who was following him said.

He is not qualified to comment on the matter of His Highness the Second Highness. . .

Xiao Changyan turned his head to look at Xiao Changfeng, his tough and handsome face was covered with bruises and abrasions, and the stubble on his chin also looked particularly embarrassed.This time he was able to escape by luck. Thanks to Xiao Changfeng's protection, both of them suffered serious injuries. They thought they would be chased and killed along the way, but they didn't expect to hide in Tibet and arrived at the gate of Kyoto safely.

"Cousin, your wedding date with Huaiyang County Lord is coming soon, and you will be brother-in-law with Donggong in the future." Xiao Changyan's words stopped short.

The strength of the Eastern Palace is almost chasing and suppressing their brothers. Everyone can catch up with the momentum of the Eastern Palace. Not to mention them, even the battle between His Majesty and the Eastern Palace may not be able to prevail. Who makes the Eastern Palace behind the entire Northwest .

"Your Highness, Changfeng is loyal to the monarch." Xiao Changfeng said.

He does not stand against anyone, but only obeys the emperor's order. Today, His Majesty is orthodox, so he will be loyal to His Majesty.Whoever can seize the throne in the future, if he is still used, he will be just as loyal. If he is not used because he is loyal to His Majesty today, it is his fate.

Xiao Changyan looked at Xiao Changfeng, who had a low eyebrow and a pleasing eye, and didn't know what to say for a while.In order to save him, he fought with Shen Yun'an on the boat until the boat sank. Neither of them held back because they were about to become relatives.

Xiao Changfeng is worthy of His Majesty's trust, and the responsibility for this defeat lies entirely on himself.

Heaving a sigh of relief, Xiao Changyan walked towards the city defender and showed his jade token.

King Jing returned to the palace, and the news quickly flew all over the city as if it had wings. Xiao Wenxi was under the attack of these two thunderous events, dressed lightly, and quietly followed the people who came to welcome him from Shunan to leave. Kyoto.

In the past, His Majesty was assassinated, and the second prince conspired against him. Later, there was the Minjiang River that killed tens of thousands of people in the river. King Jing, whose whereabouts have been missing for a long time, returned.Both matters are important matters of the court, except His Majesty, no one cares about Xiao Wenxi leaving Beijing.

But His Majesty himself was poisoned, and he had the bloody lesson of Bu Shulin's departure from the capital before. The brave army was severely injured, and Xiao Juesong was involved in it. If it weren't for this, Xiao Changmin would not have been unable to stop Bu Shulin.

After much consideration, His Majesty just sent a few people to follow secretly, if he could find an opportunity, he would do it, and if he couldn't find it, he would do it.

His Majesty no longer has the energy to stare at Xiao Wenxi, and now he is eager to know why the Minjiang incident became what it is now.

In the Palace of Qinzheng, Xiao Changyan and Xiao Changfeng knelt straight in front of the imperial case, and Emperor Youning stood behind the imperial case with his hands behind his back, looking at the two people who hung their heads silently.

There were only four people in the main hall, and Liu Sanzhi was by his side.

I don't know how long it took before the emperor said: "Tell me, I want to know, what made you seem to be bewitched, and rushed into the river with all your strength, turning a blind eye to the information obtained by Yu Xiang?"

Jiannan Jiedushi has already presented the letter of "Yu Xiang" to Emperor Youning.

It was also at this time that Xiao Changyan knew that there was such a letter. This letter was sent by "Yu Xiang" two days before the incident, that is, the day after he had just received the information from Shen Yun'an, and it happened to be delivered to the sword on the day of the incident. In the hands of the Southern Jiedu Envoy.

From this letter, it is not difficult to see that at that time Yu Xiangshen thought that Xiao Changyan would believe his information, acted according to the plan, and intercepted Shen Yun'an and Bu Shulin in Xiangdong.

However, it was never expected that Xiao Changyan led the army to pursue Xiangxi, causing an irreparable disaster.

Xiao Changyan closed his eyes. Unlike Xiao Changmin, who likes dying and struggling, he could tell at a glance that this was an unsolvable situation. No matter how he tried to explain, it would not change the fact that he made a wrong decision.

He kowtowed deeply and touched his forehead to the ground: "It's my son's incompetence. He pretended to be clever, which led to a misjudgment. A big mistake has been made and cannot be changed. My son is willing to accept the punishment."

Just yesterday, Xiao Changmin was here to argue like a trapped beast in every possible way, but he said too much and made many mistakes. The deeper the investigation, the more he can be crucified for the crime of treason.

Xiao Changyan knelt here today, without a single word, simply pleaded guilty, the completely different reaction relieved the anger accumulated in the chest of the extremely disappointed Emperor Youning.

"I gave you 5000 people, but less than a hundred people survived." This was given on the surface, not counting the brave army.

Emperor Youning was indescribably exhausted: "When a person is dead, you haven't even revealed the enemy. What is your identity and where did you come from? Nothing, you just fought a battle to destroy yourself!"

Haven't Shen Yun'an's people been buried?Of course there are, but they came prepared, the casualties are not serious, and these people are in the river, mixed with the guards of the brave army and Xiao Changyan, the two parties can't investigate the origin, so naturally they can't order alone To investigate the other party, so this matter has to be left alone.

Throughout his life as a soldier and horse, he had exhausted all his organs, and the Emperor Youning, who had ascended to the top, had never been so aggrieved even when he was in poverty and in the Northwest.

"My son is ashamed, I implore His Majesty to punish you severely." Xiao Changyan kowtowed heavily.

"You have nothing to say to me?" Emperor Youning asked.

Xiao Changyan paused: "I have nothing to say."

What do you say?Tell the whole thing from the beginning to the end, do you want to tell His Majesty about the fact that you are good at soul-destroyer?What's the point of saying it?
It couldn't change the fact that he was dereliction of duty, and the pursuit of Shen Yun'an couldn't be said on the face of it, because there was no evidence.

The punishment he deserved will not be lessened for saying these things, but will only spread out his remaining bargaining chips.

Emperor Youning supported the imperial case with one hand, raised his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose, and gave up in a dispirited manner: "You step back..."

"Son, leave." Xiao Changyan bowed obediently and withdrew.

His Majesty has not made a decision on his fault, it will be decided after the ministers discuss and advise at the court meeting tomorrow.

Although Xiao Changyan made a mistake, which caused heavy losses to the court and made the people around Minjiang panic, but in the end the crime was not enough to cause death.

Several forces tore apart for a whole morning, and the final result was that Xiao Changyan became an idle prince. Not only did he lose Annan's military power, but he also couldn't touch the center of power at all.
