Shu Blossoms

Chapter 284 The change of the court
When Ren Ke and others from Dinglin Temple saw Zhao Fu and Zheng Heng walking together, they knew that their chances of winning were slim.

But as fighters, they will not surrender without a fight, and they will not allow cowardice to fight.

They decided to fight with all their strength, and the anger in their hearts was more about Zhao Fu who had repeatedly deceived them. After all, Zhao Fu was their comrade in their hearts and should be a natural alliance with them, but they didn't think It was Zhao Fu who plotted against them first.

Speaking of which, this is also the mistake of Ren Ke, the commander-in-chief. He not only brought his prejudice against Taixue into the competition, but also failed to see clearly the current situation. The three teams are opponents of each other, and they must not completely trust any one.

Ren Ke turned around and helped Zheng Heng and the others deal with a large part of Zhao Fu's combat power. Seeing that Ren Ke's anger was not focused on them, Zheng Wei reminded Zheng Heng and Wu Ling'er to bring their people into Dinglin Temple as soon as possible.

As long as they successfully entered the temple, relying on the natural terrain of Dinglin Temple, it was enough for them to guard for a month, and Zhao Fu would never want to attack easily.

When Zhao Fu personally captured Ren Ke, seeing that most of his subordinates had been 'sacrificed' or 'captured' according to the rules, and then looked at Zheng Wei who was already standing at the gate of Dinglin Temple, turning around and showing his big white teeth at him, he could only Helpless smile.

The gate of Dinglin Temple has been closed, and the surrounding terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is almost impossible for their remaining dozen or so people to attack.

He explained his thoughts to the rest of the team, and solemnly apologized to them. It was his mistake that caused this failure.

After Zhao Fu conceded defeat, the competition went through a day and a night, and ended at noon on the second day. Zheng Heng and the others won.

After half a day of debate, several examiners finally decided that Zheng Heng got the seat of the fourth-rank guerrilla general.

Naturally, many people had objections to this result, but Emperor Zhou was still satisfied and quickly made a decree.

And according to everyone's performance in this competition, the Zhou emperors all have their own rewards.Many good performers have been promoted.

There was much less dissatisfaction and complaints from the crowd.

The Taixue competition came to an end, but Jiankang City did not fall into the peace it should have.

The days of Emperor Zhou's court were getting less and less. When Emperor Zhou learned that Zheng Wei was assassinated again in Zhongshan, his blood surged, and he only had time to shout out "check", and then fainted again with "fulfilling his wish". The court was in chaos again. Everyone was afraid that His Majesty was not very old, and the crown prince was young. If His Majesty could not hold on and died, and the young crown prince ascended the throne, there would be another chaos.

I am used to living a stable life, no one likes to be in turmoil.

As for government affairs, King Ling and Wang Can led the officials to discuss directly.

During the day, King Ling humbly learns from Wang Can how to handle political affairs, and at night he personally takes care of the seriously ill Emperor Zhou. The courtiers are more and more satisfied with King Ling.

Moreover, the King of Mausoleum is a virtuous and virtuous corporal, and he has great knowledge, which breaks the praise of those Confucian officials and famous scholars.

Zheng Wei hid in Yanhe Hall all day long, accompanied the crown prince and the second prince to attend classes, practice martial arts, and occasionally left the attendants behind and secretly led them to run around the palace. In the past six months, the three of them have touched the palace everywhere. There is a dog hole in the palace, which eunuch secretly sells the things in the palace outside the palace, and which eunuch has a close relationship with the maids in the palace, they all know it clearly.

But Zheng Wei had solemnly told them that unless their lives were at stake, they were not allowed to act recklessly.

Even if a servant is too much, if he wants to punish him, he must think of a way, and he can't rely on his status to force it.

A crown prince, a prince, Zheng Wei taught them like this is also helpless, now Emperor Zhou is seriously ill, only went to court about ten times in half a year.

In the next two months, he didn't show up directly, and when Zheng Wei went to see him, most of them were still in a coma. Zheng Wei felt that something was wrong, but he didn't find anything for a while.

At first, she thought it was Zhang Ruo's mess again, but she went to Qingwei to ask. These days, Zhang Ruo traveled to the mountains and rivers, visited all the Taoist temples near Jiankang City, but rarely entered the palace again, let alone Prescribed a prescription for His Majesty.

Liniang and Yuan Wang didn't make any progress, and couldn't find any clues, so Zheng Wei lied in his heart. In addition, the emperor was seriously ill, and the prince supervised the country. The situation in the palace was not stable, and people's hearts were fluctuating. What happened.

As a last resort, Zheng Wei tried his best to teach the two brothers how to protect themselves.

Zheng Wei also didn't inquire about the affairs in the court, and her obedient demeanor of not listening to anything outside the window and focusing on taking care of the children seemed to reassure the veterans who had a lot of objections to her.

In fact, Xiulizhuang got quite a lot of news from the family members of various prefectures.

Nowadays, King Chaotangling is getting stronger and stronger, but Wang Can retreats again and again for some reason.

In the past two days, Wang Hong even asked the King of Mausoleum to decide the government affairs on the grounds of illness.

It can be said that today's court has almost become the hall of the mausoleum king, and some ministers made criticisms, but they went into the sea without stirring up waves.

Just this morning, Zheng Wei received the news that Yin Jingbi, the confidant of Emperor Zhou, was assassinated in the street of Xishi, but luckily the servant escaped by sacrificing himself to protect him.

But until this time, the murderer of the assassination has not been found yet.

When Zheng Wei heard the news, he immediately went to the palace to ask for an interview, but for the first time he didn't see Emperor Zhou.

After much hesitation, she decided to go to the palace to settle the crown prince and the second prince, and then go out to ask for news.

But when she walked into Yong'an Gate, she was stopped, saying that there was an intrusion in the palace at this moment, and the palace was under martial law!

Zheng Wei looked up at the bright sun in the sky, and asked in amazement: "The sky is bright, there are thieves who dare to break into the palace, who is so courageous, and they don't want to live in such a cold day?"

The imperial guard guarding the city gate said to Zheng Wei with a serious face: "The situation is still unclear, but for the safety of His Majesty and nobles in the palace, today the gate of the palace is closed and outsiders are not allowed to enter!"

Zheng Wei pointed to her face in surprise, and asked in disbelief: "Me? An outsider?"

Then he carefully looked at the guard guarding the gate, felt a little unfamiliar, and couldn't help asking: "Are you just here?"

"The young general was only transferred to the Imperial Guard on duty yesterday!"

The young general straightened his chest and replied.

"I am the prince's teacher of the prince and the princess. I am responsible for taking care of the two princes according to His Majesty's order. If there are thieves in the palace, I have to enter the palace to protect the two princes."

The young general hesitated when he heard the words, Zheng Wei hit the iron while it was hot: "If the thief hurts the two princes, of course I will be blamed, but you are afraid that your life will be lost! Are you sure you want to let the two highnesses comfort you for the sake of the city gate?" ?”

The young general hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to open the city gate and let Zheng Wei enter the palace.

Zheng Wei drove fast all the way, and on the way to Xianyang Palace and Yanhe Palace, he ran into a galloping Yueqi.

Now he is no longer the commander of the imperial guards, but has also served as a servant, in charge of the prime minister's mansion.

Just looking at the direction he was running from, it seemed to be Yanhe Hall.

After the two saluted each other, Zheng Wei asked curiously: "Where did servant Yue go in such a hurry?"

Yue Qi wiped the sweat from his forehead, bowed his head and said: "I want to report to the princess, there are thieves in the palace, His Majesty and His Highness Lingwang are worried about the safety of the two princes, and ordered the minister to visit the two princes."

"How are the two princes?" Zheng Wei asked again.

"Of course it's good!" Yue Qi didn't know whether it was hot or guilty, he kept wiping his sweat.
