The king will never go to court
Chapter 86
Chapter 86
After eating the delicious food, Huo Long'er patted his chubby belly, and looked into the imperial dining room with unsatisfied interest.
Xie Wufeng also finished a table of sumptuous delicacies specially prepared by the eunuch in charge, but he only ate some.Then he waved to Huo Long'er, "Let's go, we'll eat it another day."
"There will be more?" Two big watery eyes blinked non-stop.
One is tall, the other is short, followed by guards, they headed towards Concubine Li Gui's bedroom.
Fengchao Hall, a main hall, two side halls, surrounded by a huge courtyard.
This is the dormitory of Concubine Li Gui, and it is also a palace second only to the queen's dormitory in the palace city.
It is said to be a bedroom, but it is actually more like a cage.
At this moment, every one of the court ladies and eunuchs in the Fengchao Palace had smiles on their faces, beaming with joy.
They hadn't been this happy for a long time, since the Third Highness was sent to the south.
Hearing that His Highness the Third Highness has returned to the palace, not only Concubine Li Gui's previous frowns were relieved, but even the people who served her were relieved, and their spirits were different from before.
At the beginning, when Concubine Li Gui heard that her son had returned, she hurriedly ordered the small kitchen to prepare meals, but the little eunuch who came back reported that His Highness had gone straight to the imperial dining room.
Concubine Li Gui was a little sad at first, but when she learned that her son had ordered a lot of food in the imperial dining room, and there was an extra girl in a red dress beside her, she was finally relieved and no longer so worried.
"It's not easy for my child to have a caring playmate, as long as he is happy."
Concubine Li Gui looked at the group of maids and eunuchs who had served her for more than ten years in the palace, and sighed, "Now prepare the meal, maybe Feng'er will eat a few bites."
After speaking, Concubine Li Gui kept staring in the direction of the entrance of the hall, dazed.
The little eunuchs outside the hall also hurriedly looked towards the courtyard outside the Fengchao Hall, everyone was waiting for Xie Wufeng to come back soon.
Although Emperor Qian would go to bed in Fengchao Palace every few days, Concubine Li Gui served very attentively, but after Emperor Qian left, Concubine Li worried that Xie Wufeng's mood would always be revealed on his own.
During the days when Xie Wufeng left, Concubine Li Gui's temperament has changed a lot, many eunuchs in the palace are very cautious in their actions, for fear of being punished by the empress.
As a woman, she cannot interfere with military affairs, and always hopes that her son can live in peace.
That's why I found Wang Decai, hoping to find a way to get Xie Wufeng back from the south as soon as possible.
After Emperor Qian learned about this incident, he asked Wang Decai to follow his plan and arranged a real assassination in the barracks of the [-] troops.
The result disappointed all parties. Knowing that Xie Wufeng was almost assassinated to death, Li Guifei cried into tears, and Wang Decai was beaten in front of everyone outside the Fengchao Hall.
Emperor Qian and other princes were more disappointed that Xie Wufeng did not die.
Therefore, there was a series of assassinations Xie Wufeng encountered on his way back to Kyoto.
There are not only the arrangements of Zhu Lang, but also the arrangements of the dead men of Qinghou, and the arrangements of this group of princes who are brothers and sisters.
After learning that it was true that the real dragon came into the world, Emperor Qian gave up the previous arrangement and ordered Zhang Tailin to secretly gather skilled craftsmen to secretly develop and build a giant fine iron bed crossbow in the underground palace of the imperial city.
Now, Concubine Li Gui learned that her son had returned safe and sound, the huge boulder weighing on her chest finally dissipated, and her whole body glowed with the brilliance of the past.
On the way back to Fengchao Palace, Xie Wufeng paid special attention to the layout of the palace, there were always people peeping at him in the dark, whether it was the little eunuch passing by nearby, or the courtyard, rockery, grassland, and flowers in the distance The little eunuch who sweeps in the middle.
Although the eyes of those people are no different from ordinary people, Xie Wufeng can feel that they all have martial arts aura.
It was imperceptible before, but now it is extremely clear.
"Master, where are we going?"
When approaching Fengchao Hall, Huo Long'er was a little dizzy by the road he walked, and asked in a sweet voice.
"Go see me" Xie Wufeng didn't know how to address his mother in this life for a while, after all, in the previous life, his parents didn't know who they were since he could remember.
Even if he later became the supreme power in charge of hundreds of millions of dao domains, he could not find them.
After contemplating for a moment, Xie Wufeng flashed a complex look, let out a breath, and said slowly, "Go see my mother."
"Mother? Is it the master's mother?"
Little Fire Dragon blinked his big eyes and looked at Xie Wufeng with an innocent expression on his face.
Xie Wufeng nodded. If there is a chance in the future, I will help you find your mother, then reached out and touched Huo Long'er's waterfall-like long hair.
After being soothed, Huo Long'er's tears of sadness were covered by bright eyes.
She has been living in the underground magma since she was born, and she doesn't know who her mother is.
A dragon, staying alone in the seal, wanted to go out, but there was no way, until he met Xie Wufeng who was passing through the snow mountain valley, and rescued her by chance.
"His Royal Highness is back!"
"His Royal Highness is back!"
"His Royal Highness is back!"
When a young eunuch standing outside the main gate of the courtyard of Fengchao Palace saw the two figures at the corner, his eyes lit up instantly, and he hurriedly shouted behind him.
Then there was one shout after another, one after another, from the main gate of the courtyard through the rockery, ponds, gardens, pavilions and pavilions to the main hall of Fengchao Hall.
Concubine Li Gui heard the eunuchs' eunuchs' joyful voices, she was full of energy, and hurriedly asked the old lady beside her, is there any problem with her clothes today?No makeup, right?
The old mother also had a happy expression on her face, "Your Majesty, everything is alright, everything is alright!"
Concubine Li Gui was dressed in a lavender palace attire, she couldn't wait to drag out her long skirt, and walked towards the main entrance of the main hall.
The two little maids beside her were worried that their mother would fall, so they hurried forward and lifted up their skirts, and followed closely behind.
"Feng'er, Feng'er?"
Seeing Xie Wufeng who appeared not far away, his figure and appearance were exactly the same as his own son, but the indifference exuded from his body made Concubine Li a little strange.
Huo Long'er jumped out from behind Xie Wufeng, bowed very politely to the beautiful woman on the stone steps, "Long'er has seen Madam!"
"you"
"She is a little girl I took in." Xie Wufeng did not reveal Huo Long'er's identity, for fear of scaring the mother in this life in front of her.
Huo Long'er secretly took a look at Xie Wufeng, spit out her little pink tongue, and came to Li Guifei very lively, and said softly, "Ma'am, do you still have anything to eat here?"
Hearing this sentence, Xie Wufeng didn't react, his expression was flat.But the two guards who followed behind him had black lines all over their faces.
"How can this little girl eat so much, she almost emptied the imperial dining room, but she is still not full."
"Yes, yes!" Concubine Li Gui thought it was because she hadn't seen her son for many days that she felt strange.
Immediately, with a smile on her face, she instructed Gong'e behind her, "Pass over all the prepared meals quickly."
After the two maids bowed their knees and saluted, they moved lightly with their lotus steps, and soon disappeared under the eaves of the Fengchao Hall.
Concubine Li Gui and Huo Long'er hit it off very well, they walked into the hall talking and laughing, while Xie Wufeng followed them calmly.
After a while, more than a dozen maids presented various delicacies prepared by the small kitchen, all of which were pastry dishes that Xie Wufeng liked to eat.
However, Xie Wufeng is different now, he just glanced at the food on the table, and sat down with Concubine Li Gui and Huo Longer.
"It's so fragrant!"
There was a shallow smile on the corner of Huo Long'er's mouth, revealing two small canine teeth.
Concubine Li Gui was very happy to watch, she directly put food for both her and Xie Wufeng, and put them in the bowls in front of her.
"Eat more or less, these are Feng'er's favorite dishes."
Concubine Li Gui just felt that her son suddenly seemed to be a different person. He used to always stick to her side, but now he was indifferent and calm, as if he had grown up a lot.
Concubine Li Gui didn't think too much, as long as her son was still alive, everything would be fine.
Huo Long'er was very happy to eat, and as a result, the dishes brought by Concubine Li Gui, because she ate them very quickly, she also took the initiative to pick up some dishes that she hadn't seen before, and swallowed them whole.
"Looks really hungry."
"No, no. Madam's food here is delicious, I like it very much."
Huo Long'er's sweet and waxy voice made Concubine Li very comfortable listening to it, and the jade chopsticks in her hands became more frequent.
Concubine Li Gui looked at her son, her eyes were full of doting, and the jade chopsticks in her hands didn't stop, she kept picking up food for the two of them.
Compared to Huo Long'er, Xie Wufeng ate very calmly, and he ordered every dish until he could eat a few bites.
It's not like in the past, as long as it is a dish brought by my mother and concubine, I will finish it happily.
"Don't Feng'er like to eat?"
Concubine Li Gui was a little nervous, and asked softly.
Xie Wufeng pondered, "No, the taste is not bad."
To tell the truth, no matter the two meals eaten in the Imperial Dining Room or Fengchao Palace, in Xie Wufeng's eyes, they are very delicious and delicious.
At least it was much better than the food I ate on the way during this period of time.
The calm and indifferent tone made Concubine Li think that her son didn't like these dishes, "Why don't you ask the small kitchen to prepare some for you again? You can tell my concubine what Feng'er wants to eat."
While speaking, Concubine Li Gui's eyes were full of worry. Her son seemed to have lost a lot of weight. Although his face was much more angular and not as childish as before, it always carried a lonely and cold aura.
"It's okay, these dishes are quite good." Xie Wufeng raised the corner of his mouth slightly, squeezed out a very unskilled smile, and smiled slightly at Concubine Li Gui.
"My concubine sees that you have lost weight. Did you suffer a lot outside? When your cousin comes back, I will definitely reprimand him and vent your anger on you."
Concubine Li Gui still regards the boy in front of her as a child who has not grown up, and her son should not be bullied by others no matter what.
Immediately, she ordered to Gong'e behind her, "Go and let Wang Decai come over!"
"This"
The Gong'e eunuchs behind them trembled all over. They all got the orders of the prince. When the third highness is here, they must take good care of them, and they must not make any mistakes.
Concubine Li Gui is now calling the prince over, so who is going to be punished?
A palace woman behind her was sweating on her forehead, and stammered, "Yes, yes, mother, mother, I, just, go."
"Forget it, you go!"
Concubine Li Gui heard that the maid behind her was squeaking and couldn't speak clearly, so she turned her head and gave instructions to another maid beside her.
"Your cousin, he is not bad. You should listen to him more in the future. Although Anyang is not a big state, it is still close to the capital. In the future, my mother and concubine will ask for a favor for you, so that His Majesty the Emperor will seal you to Anyang. "
Although Concubine Li has always been deep in the harem, she is not an ignorant and ordinary woman, and she has also experienced treacherous things in the palace.
"No, if my concubine wants to know the whereabouts of Marquis Anyang, I can tell you."
Xie Wufeng had already guessed what Concubine Li Gui was thinking, it was nothing more than a big change in her temperament, she wanted to ask Li Daozong, Marquis of Anyang to clarify the situation as soon as possible.
What happened on the way to the south, Wang Decai was the emperor, so he would not reveal the truth to Concubine Li Gui, and kept many eunuchs in the Palace of Fengchao silent.
Any rumors about the third prince being outside, not a single word should flow into the Fengchao Hall.
"What's the meaning of Feng'er?"
Concubine Li Gui's beautiful face showed a trace of astonishment, she never thought that her son's title of Marquis of Anyang had changed.
In the past, uncle and uncle were always shouting non-stop, but now there are only three words in front of me.Concubine Li Gui, who has an exquisite mind, naturally noticed the unusualness.
"You all go down first."
Xie Wufeng glanced at the people in the hall, his tone was cold, not angry and pretentious.
At this moment, Concubine Li Gui also felt a little palpitation, as if she didn't know the son in front of her at all.
Unexpectedly, Concubine Li Gui saw many court eunuchs in the palace bowed their heads and saluted, then filed out and all retreated outside the palace.
"This..." Concubine Li looked at the scene in front of her, feeling a little unreal.When did these servants become so obedient in front of their sons.
Even the eunuch on duty and several stewards under the eaves of the palace quickly disappeared from sight.
At the same time, Lu Zhongliang quickly guarded around the courtyard with more than a dozen personal guards.
These people were all personal guards who had followed Xie Wufeng to conquer the country of Yan in the south, and they were also the group of personal guards who stood outside the camp and resisted desperately when Xie Wufeng was besieged by martial arts experts.
"Feng'er, what are you doing?"
Xie Wufeng quietly looked at the beautiful woman beside him, her makeup was very delicate, he pondered for a moment and asked, "Do you like Emperor Qian?"
He didn't want to care about these two people in this life anymore, one was "father" Emperor Qian, and the other was the beautiful woman in front of him.
But when he walked into this Fengchao Palace, the memory of Xie Wufeng in this life involuntarily surged into his heart and entered the long river of memory.
The woman in front of her was dressed in a gorgeous palace dress, with a delicate face, and she was favored by the king at first glance.
No wonder, Xie Wufeng has grown so much, and he can still live in the palace for a long time, which shows the Emperor Qian's love for Concubine Li Gui.
Xie Wufeng was often bullied when he was a child, but every time the mother and concubine in front of him came forward in person, and even did not hesitate to make trouble in front of the former Emperor Qianhuang.
Xie Wufeng's memories of more than ten years are full of meticulous care for children.
Every day, every moment, as long as she is in the Fengchao Palace, Concubine Li will always watch her son playing and playing in the courtyard with a loving face.
Even during the half a year of studying at Tianyan Academy, Concubine Li Gui would always ask Marquis Anyang to visit the academy once a day.
Knowing how much his cousin loved Xie Wufeng, Li Daozong took his son Li Mo along with him.
This is why Li Mo got so familiar with Xie Wufeng in Tianyan Academy.
However, this cousin often cheated him.
Bit by bit of the past, appeared in the back of his mind, so he asked this question to the woman in front of him.
If she really likes Emperor Qian, Xie Wufeng turned around and left without asking any more questions.
Regarding what Qianhuang did before, Quan pretended it never happened.
If there are other secrets in it, Xie Wufeng will give the mother in this life a stable life.
"Feng'er, what's wrong with you?"
Concubine Li Gui looked at her completely unfamiliar son and asked nervously.
"It's okay, I'll just ask. Do you like him?" Xie Wufeng's tone became more and more flat, his eyes were silently looking at the concubine beside him.
At this moment, he saw a trace of struggle from Concubine Li Gui's face, and a trace of panic that had never appeared in his eyes.
Concubine Li recalled that night 19 years ago, a rainy night with thunder and lightning, the army surrounded the mountain, her husband died in the rebellion, and she was the only one hiding in the palace trembling with her infant child in her arms.
The husband is the only remaining line of the prince, and more than a dozen members of their family escaped from the capital under the protection of the dead guards.
Fleeing all the way north, trying to leave Qianguo to avoid this mutiny.
As a result, when he fled to the Wufeng Mountain Palace, he was surrounded by rebels.
In order to protect the baby boy in her arms, she chose to commit herself to the traitor, her husband's uncle, now His Majesty Qian Huang.
Seeing the mournful expression on the mother's concubine's face, Xie Wufeng turned his head sideways, watching the red lanterns hanging under the eaves fluttering in the wind. "Since my concubine doesn't want to say it, I won't force it."
Huo Long'er suddenly felt that the surrounding atmosphere was a bit weird, and asked curiously, "What's the matter?", with a sweet and soft voice, and looked at the two of them sideways with wide eyes, eyes full of "doubt".
"Feng'er. Feng'er, you must not be impulsive, as long as you can live well."
This is a mother's greatest hope for her son. She also knows that there is a reason why Xie Wufeng was constantly bullied in the past. Someone must be instigating behind his back, but those are the sons of the emperor, and she can only do her best to protect them. Be good to my son.
Only by staying by your side can you not be secretly hurt by others.
Xie Wufeng saw a hint of helplessness, helplessness, and fear in the eyes of this loving mother.I feel a little sad, what is the reason that made the emperor want to kill himself, and his mother and concubine are so afraid?
After pondering for a moment, Xie Wufeng's eyes suddenly changed to pitch black.
Seeing that her son's eyes suddenly changed, and his pupils turned completely black, Concubine Li Gui almost screamed out, but she soon lost consciousness.
"Soul Seizing Technique."
Xie Wufeng once again performed a soul-searching technique from his previous life, and a dark cloud suddenly appeared above the Fengchao Hall, which once again aroused the vigilance of many people in the palace.
A few old eunuchs who had been hiding in the dark corners opened their eyes slightly. As old monster-level existences, they would perceive even slight changes in the vitality of the surrounding world, let alone a drastic change like a sudden drop.
The dark cloud became more and more solid, covering the entire imperial city continuously, but dissipated in an instant.
This is not the first time Xie Wufeng has used the "Soul Seizing Technique", this time the aura was very precise and did not trigger any phenomena of heaven and earth.
19 years ago, Kyoto Bloody Night.
The former prince's mansion was blood red and the ground was full of corpses.The rebels searched and hunted inside. A carriage drove quickly through an alley in the dark of night, followed by the sound of killing.
It was a life-and-death struggle between the powerhouses of the second rank, and hundreds of black armored cavalry who rushed over were cut off in the middle.
The people in the carriage couldn't care about this at all. A beautiful woman's face was pale, and her loose robe could no longer cover her bulging belly.
Beside him was a young man, also with a pale face, anxiously and nervously urging the coachman to leave the east city of Kyoto quickly.
"Your Highness, where are we going?" The woman's forehead was disheveled, and her eyes were full of fear.
"Escape from Kyoto first and go to the north. There are [-] forbidden troops in the north. We, we will be fine, and you and the child will be fine." The young man's robe was already stained with blood, and he squeezed out a comforting smile. Turning back to appease the woman.
The blood on the robe continued to drip on the carpet in the carriage, not only from him but also from his father and brother.
Under the full protection of more than a dozen martial arts experts, the carriage rushed out of the east gate in the dark.
The sound of fighting behind him gradually faded away, and there were less than three guards accompanying the carriage.
A coachman, two second-rank powerhouses.
"His Royal Highness, are you okay?" A second-rank powerhouse panted heavily and kept looking back. He had already stabbed the horse under his crotch several times. It is possible to fall dead.
"I'm all right, Mr. Wang, how are you?" The young man in the carriage asked hoarsely.
It's a long way to the north, and I don't know the way ahead, but the pursuers behind them are searching for traces of their carriage.
"Thank you, Your Highness, Grandson, for your concern. We are fine." The second-rank strongman surnamed Wang swallowed the bright red blood that poured into his throat, and Qiangzi raised his breath to maintain his energy.
Immediately, he shouted to the second-rank strong man on the other side of the carriage, "You protect His Highness and Concubine Taisun to the Wufeng Mountain Palace. There is a garrison there, and you will be able to protect His Highness and their safety."
"What about you?" An old man's hoarse voice came from the other side of the carriage, also exhausted and vain.
The second-rank old man surnamed Wang turned his horse's head, faced the direction when he came, and said in a deep voice, "I'm here to stop the pursuers, you guys hurry up!"
The few people didn't hesitate anymore, but the carriage didn't drive fast, bypassed the mountain road, and disappeared among the mountains in the north.
In the next few days, the woman in the carriage endured the bumps all the time, but she still tried her best to protect the fetus, so that the child in her belly would not have any accidents.
Ever since the second-rank strongman surnamed Wang blocked the pursuers, the carriage had never met the pursuers again.
In order to escape for their lives, they exhausted all the horses on the way.
The young men staggered with the support of the woman. They did not dare to enter the town for fear of being caught by the pursuers.
You can only walk on the mountain trails.
Sleeping in the open all the way, sleeping day and night, he can only hide in the forest.During the period, the woman's body was completely exhausted due to continuous fleeing, and she contracted a cold. The young man used his remaining breath to continue her life.
And the remaining two guards, one is the coachman and the other is a second-rank powerhouse, guarding them.They could no longer use more energy to restore the Concubine Taisun's blood.
The two need to deal with the sudden danger, so as not to suddenly rush into the pursuers in the dark.
In this way, the woman miraculously survived, and the four of them finally arrived at the Wufeng Mountain Palace a hundred miles away from the capital after [-] days.
But the bigger nightmare has just begun. The garrison of Wu Fengshan's palace has already mutinied, and the four of them have become sheep among wolves and have been put under house arrest.
In the end, the young man, the second-rank powerhouse, and the coachman tried their best to get the girl out of the tiger's mouth, but everything was futile.
On a rainy night, the woman gave birth to a baby boy in the palace.
Xie Wufeng also saw the appearance of himself when he was born 19 years ago at this time, "It's so ugly!", but the woman still hugged the baby boy tightly in her arms.
At the same time, Xie Wufeng also saw Li Guifei 19 years ago in the memory of Li Guifei, dressed in a yellow robe, just like the Emperor Qianhuang when he was young.
"As long as you are willing to be with me, he can live on and be treated as my son."
The woman's beautiful face was pale, her eyes were red and swollen, and she heard the silence outside the palace.
He looked down at the baby boy in his arms again, choking silently.
Until now, Xie Wufeng let out a long sigh, and finally figured out why Emperor Qian wanted to kill him.
The original Xie Wufeng is the legacy of the former prince, so naturally he cannot stay in this world.
Xie Wufeng couldn't bear to look at his concubine who had been hit by the "Soul Seizing Technique", he picked her up and put her on the bed in the inner hall.
Then he returned to the main hall, found a place at random, leaned on the back of the chair, and relaxed.
"Master, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing Xie Wufeng's disappointed expression, Huo Long'er put down the only piece of pastry left in his hand, and opened his eyes nervously.
After following Xie Wufeng closely for so long, it was the first time for her to see her master so lost and sad.
Huo Long'er put his little head on Xie Wufeng's arm, rubbed it back and forth, and looked at him with concern.
Xie Wufeng stroked Huo Long'er's little head, and comforted him, "I'm fine, I'm thinking about how to deal with this matter."
On the one hand, it is necessary to rush to Huangbei City as soon as possible to explore the secrets in the mountains, rivers and forests.
On the other side is the mother who has worked so hard to take care of him in this life. Xie Wufeng didn't know how to make a decision for a while.
After pondering for a moment, Xie Wufeng looked down at Huo Long'er who had fallen asleep, a light flashed in his eyes, and he said to himself, "It's not appropriate to send it to Anyang Prefecture, the second-rank powerhouse didn't protect their husband and wife Two people. I'm afraid it won't work with just one Anyang Marquis."
"Or let Huo Long'er stay and take care of his mother first."
After an unknown amount of time, Lu Zhongliang's voice came from outside the door. "Your Highness, the prince is asking to see you."
Xie Wufeng was stunned for a moment, thinking that Wang Ensheng had come back to life, and then he remembered that there was only one person in the inner palace called Wang Gonggong, and that was the ancestor of all the eunuchs, Wang Decai.
In order not to disturb Li Guifei's rest, Xie Wufeng got up and walked out of the hall, stood on the stone steps and glanced indifferently at the old eunuch standing in the courtyard.
"What's the matter?"
"Reporting to the Third Highness, officials from the Ministry of Rites have come to report that your residence has been properly arranged. The old servant is here to ask, when is the Third Highness planning?"
"I didn't expect that the Ministry of Rituals was very attentive in handling the matter, and it was completed in less than three hours." Xie Wufeng raised his eyebrows and glanced at the sky, with a cold and arrogant expression.
The sun was dazzling, and the golden afterglow fell on the palace with golden tiles and red walls. Wang Decai's hunched figure cast an extremely long reflection on the ground.
Wang Decai stood quietly under the afterglow, with his head down, doing his job as an old slave, waiting for his master's reply.
Xie Wufeng pondered for a moment, he originally wanted to choose the residence of the former prince, but thought that leaving his mother there alone might bring back her past sadness, so he finally gave up.
"Okay, you go and tell Emperor Qian, my mother, and I will take it away."
Hearing that the tone was entirely informing, without the slightest intention of discussing, Wang Decai's heart trembled. Everyone in the imperial city knew the status of Concubine Li Gui in His Majesty's heart.
All those who knew the identity of Concubine Li Gui were all beheaded back then, and they only pretended to be the cousin of Marquis Anyang and married into the royal family.
Now, if His Majesty the Third Highness wanted to take her mother and concubine out of the palace, His Majesty the Emperor Qianhuang would definitely not agree to it. This was simply in the face of His Majesty the Emperor.
"Third Highness, why is this? This old slave needs to report to His Majesty the Emperor."
Wang Decai raised his head slightly, his gaze flitted across Xie Wufeng's face, hoping to see some of Xie Wufeng's emotional changes.
There are even more speculations in my heart, "Could it be that Concubine Li Gui told the Third Highness about that matter, and the Third Highness wants to..."
Thinking of this, Wang Decai's back was wet with cold sweat again, and he didn't dare to think about it any more.He was a witness to what happened back then. Many people have died in Qianguo. If he experienced it once, he really couldn't believe the consequences.
At that time, almost all the aristocratic families of the Qian Kingdom were affected, and many of the main lineages of the direct line were killed in pieces.
This is why all the princes were sent to guard a state.
I thought that these princes wanted to keep the capital so that the imperial court could take care of it.But on the night of 19 years, these princes were completely released, and became important officials guarding one side of the border, with unparalleled power for a while.
Xie Wufeng glanced indifferently at Wang Decai who was still standing there.He said coldly, "Why? Still not going?"
"This old servant will report to His Majesty." Wang Decai froze and hurriedly bowed and said goodbye.
Xie Wufeng's strength, he had already seen it in the Tai Chi Hall this morning, and that giant dragon, if he really offended this one, I'm afraid it would be difficult for all Zhu Lang to attack at the same time, and it might be difficult to save himself here.
"What! This Nizi wants to take away the noble concubine?" Qianhuang slapped the imperial case heavily with his palm, roaring like thunder, and said angrily, "Nizi, Nizi, Nizi"
Emperor Qian didn't know what to do for a while, if Xie Wufeng forcibly took him away, no one in the Forbidden Palace of the Imperial City would be able to stop him now.
Just relying on the giant dragon, even those old monsters in the Forbidden Palace to attack together, probably won't help.
"Your Majesty, it's okay to let him take the imperial concubine out to relax." Zhang Tailin seemed to remind him meaningfully.
"He can't wait to go south to destroy Yan. Since he previously advocated that the crown prince be in command, His Majesty might as well agree. He wants to go to Huangbei City. His purpose is obvious. It is nothing more than mountains, rivers and forests.
"
"That's fine. If he wants to compete with the martial arts experts from Qian, Yan, Jin, and Chu, His Majesty might as well go along with the flow. At that time, the army only needs to wait for work outside Huangbei City, so why worry about hidden dangers?"
Hearing Zhang Tailin's narration finished, Emperor Qian nodded heartily, took another cup of tea from the little eunuch at the side, drank it hastily, and let out a long breath.
"Okay, let's do it like this. Nizi will never take the imperial concubine to the mountains, rivers and forests." Qianhuang's eyes became extremely cold at this moment, with a cold smile on the corner of his mouth, he took a deep breath, and then exhaled slowly, his face was extremely cold. Unsightly, he said displeasedly, "Then let the imperial concubine go out of the palace to relax."
In Fengchao Hall, when Concubine Li Gui woke up, it was already nightfall, and the carriage had already been prepared in the courtyard outside the hall.
Then she learned that her son was named King Wu, and she was given a mansion, and she was allowed to go out of the palace with her son to relax.
Concubine Li Gui's first reaction was to panic, thinking that Emperor Qian wanted to kill his son.Hastily ordered someone to wash and dress her up, and was about to intercede with His Majesty Qian Huang.
However, he was stopped by Huo Long'er in the end. "Ma'am, don't worry, my master is very powerful, no one can bully you in the future."
While Concubine Li Gui was in a coma, Xie Wufeng had already confessed to Huo Long'er that he was going to the mountains, rivers and forests, and His Majesty Huo Long'er stayed to take care of "Madam".
At first, Huo Long'er was reluctant, but Xie Wufeng promised to move the small kitchen in the Fengchao Palace to her, and Huo Long nodded happily, clenching his fists and swearing, "I must protect Madam well." , there will never be any surprises."
"What? Feng'er is very powerful?" Concubine Li Gui looked at the innocent little girl in front of her, and suddenly laughed, thinking of her own innocence back then, if not for herself, the Prince's Mansion would not have suffered.
"It's really powerful!" Huo Long'er blinked her big watery eyes and pouted to explain.
"Mother, since Emperor Qian has promised you to leave the palace, you might as well go out for a walk and relax."
Just when Concubine Li Gui was dragged by Huo Long'er to walk towards the outer hall, Xie Wufeng walked in from the outside, his tone softened a lot.
The woman in front of him had paid too much for him in this life.Treat her as your own mother.
"Mother!"
Hearing these two words, Concubine Li Gui's eyes became moist again, he had never heard Xie Wufeng calling himself like this.Even Xie Wufeng in the past just called himself "Mother Concubine!"
This "concubine" was given to her by Emperor Qian. She had to obey Emperor Qian just to protect her son.
Now, her son has grown up and is trying to take her out of the palace.In order to thank Wu Feng for his safety, Concubine Li still shook her head and said, "No, you don't know, terrible things will happen if you do this."
"I, I know." Xie Wufeng's eyes were firm, facing Li Guifei's dodging and begging eyes, he felt a little sore in his heart.
How much pain did this woman endure so that he could survive in this world.
Seeing his mother's hesitant look, Xie Wufeng took a few steps forward, hugged Concubine Li Gui into his arms and said firmly, "Mother, I know everything, and I will protect you from now on. Don't worry, don't be afraid."
"Feng'er." Concubine Li Gui's beautiful face pressed against Xie Wufeng's shoulder, sobbing.
Seeing this scene, Huo Long'er also burst into tears, whimpering, "I miss my mother too, mother"
For a moment, the Fengchao Hall was filled with Huo Long'er's weeping, which directly froze Xie Wufeng and Li Guifei on the spot.
"Don't cry!"
"Hey, don't cry!"
Xie Wufeng glared at Huolong, while Li Guifei's eyes were full of doting, and felt that the little girl in the red skirt in front of her was also a person with a terrible life experience, so she also looked at her more and more doting.
Without waiting for Concubine Li Gui to struggle, Xie Wufeng directly dragged his mother to the outside of the hall.
In the courtyard, Lu Zhongliang and others stood respectfully beside more than a dozen carriages, and at the same time saluted the young man at the main entrance of Fengchao Hall, "Join Your Highness King Wu."
After everyone learned that His Royal Highness was named King Wu, they were also extremely excited.
More than a dozen carriages were filled with some personal clothing, jewelry and other items that Li Guifei used daily.
In addition, the small kitchen in Fengchao Hall was emptied, and the cooks inside were also taken away, those were Huo Long'er's favorite.
In the night, more than ten carriages drove out of the imperial city, all the way to the north, passing through more than ten bustling streets and shops, attracting many people in Kyoto to watch.
The carriage drove slowly, and Concubine Li Gui glanced at the bustling streets of Kyoto from time to time. The last time she saw such a scene was when she was in the Prince's Mansion, and it was nearly 20 years ago.
The carriage was moving very slowly, although there were only a dozen or so guards, no one dared to approach.The group stopped outside a mansion two streets east of Tianyan Academy.
Prince Wu's Mansion was the mansion of a prince from the previous dynasty. Because of a crime committed by that prince, his family was exiled to the western frontier, and the mansion remained vacant all the time.
Wuwang Mansion occupies a huge area, among which there are dotted with pavilions, terraces and buildings, and there are as many as ten courtyards with winding water cups.The backyard is even more deeply gardened, and the birdsong is empty.
Hubu originally wanted to get it from Zongzheng Temple, and then sell it to fill the treasury, but was secretly stopped by someone sent by the First Prince.
As a result, unexpectedly, the Ministry of Rites now used it to curry favor with His Highness King Wu. His Highness Xie Wufeng was the first prince conferred by His Majesty Qianhuang, and the other princes had no titles yet.
At the gate of the mansion, there are two giant stone lions with a height of three people tied around their necks with bright red silk and satin, and there are also lanterns and festoons in front of the mansion gate.
A large number of officials and carriages have gathered outside the gate of the mansion, which are filled with congratulatory gifts.
Among them, there were even six confidantes of Qinghou who once conquered Yan Kingdom with Xie Wufeng also came to congratulate with heavy gifts.
"Wang Feng, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, congratulations to His Highness King Wu!"
"Member of the officers and soldiers, Wailang Mu Ziyue, congratulations to His Highness King Wu!"
At this moment, the third prince, who was not cared about in the past, gathered in front of the six officials from various yamen to congratulate him, and they were even more generous in their compliments and congratulations.
"His Royal Highness King Wu's future is limitless!"
Someone even yelled in public, "His Royal Highness King Wu will surely be crowned the Great Treasure in the future!"
Many officials did not point out that even if the prince of a real dragon lord does not ascend the throne in the future, his status and power will certainly not be inferior to ordinary princes.
Suddenly hearing so many officials congratulating her son, Concubine Li Gui finally calmed down a little, but she still looked worried.
Although Emperor Qian seemed to be peaceful for more than ten years, he ruled by doing nothing, and used military generals and princes to suppress the aristocratic family, but at the same time he continued to win over the aristocratic family and the sect.
Concubine Li Gui has a deep fear of this Qianhuang, which radiates from the depths of her bones.
From the bloody night in Kyoto, she and her husband ran for their lives all the way to the place of deep despair.

(End of this chapter)
After eating the delicious food, Huo Long'er patted his chubby belly, and looked into the imperial dining room with unsatisfied interest.
Xie Wufeng also finished a table of sumptuous delicacies specially prepared by the eunuch in charge, but he only ate some.Then he waved to Huo Long'er, "Let's go, we'll eat it another day."
"There will be more?" Two big watery eyes blinked non-stop.
One is tall, the other is short, followed by guards, they headed towards Concubine Li Gui's bedroom.
Fengchao Hall, a main hall, two side halls, surrounded by a huge courtyard.
This is the dormitory of Concubine Li Gui, and it is also a palace second only to the queen's dormitory in the palace city.
It is said to be a bedroom, but it is actually more like a cage.
At this moment, every one of the court ladies and eunuchs in the Fengchao Palace had smiles on their faces, beaming with joy.
They hadn't been this happy for a long time, since the Third Highness was sent to the south.
Hearing that His Highness the Third Highness has returned to the palace, not only Concubine Li Gui's previous frowns were relieved, but even the people who served her were relieved, and their spirits were different from before.
At the beginning, when Concubine Li Gui heard that her son had returned, she hurriedly ordered the small kitchen to prepare meals, but the little eunuch who came back reported that His Highness had gone straight to the imperial dining room.
Concubine Li Gui was a little sad at first, but when she learned that her son had ordered a lot of food in the imperial dining room, and there was an extra girl in a red dress beside her, she was finally relieved and no longer so worried.
"It's not easy for my child to have a caring playmate, as long as he is happy."
Concubine Li Gui looked at the group of maids and eunuchs who had served her for more than ten years in the palace, and sighed, "Now prepare the meal, maybe Feng'er will eat a few bites."
After speaking, Concubine Li Gui kept staring in the direction of the entrance of the hall, dazed.
The little eunuchs outside the hall also hurriedly looked towards the courtyard outside the Fengchao Hall, everyone was waiting for Xie Wufeng to come back soon.
Although Emperor Qian would go to bed in Fengchao Palace every few days, Concubine Li Gui served very attentively, but after Emperor Qian left, Concubine Li worried that Xie Wufeng's mood would always be revealed on his own.
During the days when Xie Wufeng left, Concubine Li Gui's temperament has changed a lot, many eunuchs in the palace are very cautious in their actions, for fear of being punished by the empress.
As a woman, she cannot interfere with military affairs, and always hopes that her son can live in peace.
That's why I found Wang Decai, hoping to find a way to get Xie Wufeng back from the south as soon as possible.
After Emperor Qian learned about this incident, he asked Wang Decai to follow his plan and arranged a real assassination in the barracks of the [-] troops.
The result disappointed all parties. Knowing that Xie Wufeng was almost assassinated to death, Li Guifei cried into tears, and Wang Decai was beaten in front of everyone outside the Fengchao Hall.
Emperor Qian and other princes were more disappointed that Xie Wufeng did not die.
Therefore, there was a series of assassinations Xie Wufeng encountered on his way back to Kyoto.
There are not only the arrangements of Zhu Lang, but also the arrangements of the dead men of Qinghou, and the arrangements of this group of princes who are brothers and sisters.
After learning that it was true that the real dragon came into the world, Emperor Qian gave up the previous arrangement and ordered Zhang Tailin to secretly gather skilled craftsmen to secretly develop and build a giant fine iron bed crossbow in the underground palace of the imperial city.
Now, Concubine Li Gui learned that her son had returned safe and sound, the huge boulder weighing on her chest finally dissipated, and her whole body glowed with the brilliance of the past.
On the way back to Fengchao Palace, Xie Wufeng paid special attention to the layout of the palace, there were always people peeping at him in the dark, whether it was the little eunuch passing by nearby, or the courtyard, rockery, grassland, and flowers in the distance The little eunuch who sweeps in the middle.
Although the eyes of those people are no different from ordinary people, Xie Wufeng can feel that they all have martial arts aura.
It was imperceptible before, but now it is extremely clear.
"Master, where are we going?"
When approaching Fengchao Hall, Huo Long'er was a little dizzy by the road he walked, and asked in a sweet voice.
"Go see me" Xie Wufeng didn't know how to address his mother in this life for a while, after all, in the previous life, his parents didn't know who they were since he could remember.
Even if he later became the supreme power in charge of hundreds of millions of dao domains, he could not find them.
After contemplating for a moment, Xie Wufeng flashed a complex look, let out a breath, and said slowly, "Go see my mother."
"Mother? Is it the master's mother?"
Little Fire Dragon blinked his big eyes and looked at Xie Wufeng with an innocent expression on his face.
Xie Wufeng nodded. If there is a chance in the future, I will help you find your mother, then reached out and touched Huo Long'er's waterfall-like long hair.
After being soothed, Huo Long'er's tears of sadness were covered by bright eyes.
She has been living in the underground magma since she was born, and she doesn't know who her mother is.
A dragon, staying alone in the seal, wanted to go out, but there was no way, until he met Xie Wufeng who was passing through the snow mountain valley, and rescued her by chance.
"His Royal Highness is back!"
"His Royal Highness is back!"
"His Royal Highness is back!"
When a young eunuch standing outside the main gate of the courtyard of Fengchao Palace saw the two figures at the corner, his eyes lit up instantly, and he hurriedly shouted behind him.
Then there was one shout after another, one after another, from the main gate of the courtyard through the rockery, ponds, gardens, pavilions and pavilions to the main hall of Fengchao Hall.
Concubine Li Gui heard the eunuchs' eunuchs' joyful voices, she was full of energy, and hurriedly asked the old lady beside her, is there any problem with her clothes today?No makeup, right?
The old mother also had a happy expression on her face, "Your Majesty, everything is alright, everything is alright!"
Concubine Li Gui was dressed in a lavender palace attire, she couldn't wait to drag out her long skirt, and walked towards the main entrance of the main hall.
The two little maids beside her were worried that their mother would fall, so they hurried forward and lifted up their skirts, and followed closely behind.
"Feng'er, Feng'er?"
Seeing Xie Wufeng who appeared not far away, his figure and appearance were exactly the same as his own son, but the indifference exuded from his body made Concubine Li a little strange.
Huo Long'er jumped out from behind Xie Wufeng, bowed very politely to the beautiful woman on the stone steps, "Long'er has seen Madam!"
"you"
"She is a little girl I took in." Xie Wufeng did not reveal Huo Long'er's identity, for fear of scaring the mother in this life in front of her.
Huo Long'er secretly took a look at Xie Wufeng, spit out her little pink tongue, and came to Li Guifei very lively, and said softly, "Ma'am, do you still have anything to eat here?"
Hearing this sentence, Xie Wufeng didn't react, his expression was flat.But the two guards who followed behind him had black lines all over their faces.
"How can this little girl eat so much, she almost emptied the imperial dining room, but she is still not full."
"Yes, yes!" Concubine Li Gui thought it was because she hadn't seen her son for many days that she felt strange.
Immediately, with a smile on her face, she instructed Gong'e behind her, "Pass over all the prepared meals quickly."
After the two maids bowed their knees and saluted, they moved lightly with their lotus steps, and soon disappeared under the eaves of the Fengchao Hall.
Concubine Li Gui and Huo Long'er hit it off very well, they walked into the hall talking and laughing, while Xie Wufeng followed them calmly.
After a while, more than a dozen maids presented various delicacies prepared by the small kitchen, all of which were pastry dishes that Xie Wufeng liked to eat.
However, Xie Wufeng is different now, he just glanced at the food on the table, and sat down with Concubine Li Gui and Huo Longer.
"It's so fragrant!"
There was a shallow smile on the corner of Huo Long'er's mouth, revealing two small canine teeth.
Concubine Li Gui was very happy to watch, she directly put food for both her and Xie Wufeng, and put them in the bowls in front of her.
"Eat more or less, these are Feng'er's favorite dishes."
Concubine Li Gui just felt that her son suddenly seemed to be a different person. He used to always stick to her side, but now he was indifferent and calm, as if he had grown up a lot.
Concubine Li Gui didn't think too much, as long as her son was still alive, everything would be fine.
Huo Long'er was very happy to eat, and as a result, the dishes brought by Concubine Li Gui, because she ate them very quickly, she also took the initiative to pick up some dishes that she hadn't seen before, and swallowed them whole.
"Looks really hungry."
"No, no. Madam's food here is delicious, I like it very much."
Huo Long'er's sweet and waxy voice made Concubine Li very comfortable listening to it, and the jade chopsticks in her hands became more frequent.
Concubine Li Gui looked at her son, her eyes were full of doting, and the jade chopsticks in her hands didn't stop, she kept picking up food for the two of them.
Compared to Huo Long'er, Xie Wufeng ate very calmly, and he ordered every dish until he could eat a few bites.
It's not like in the past, as long as it is a dish brought by my mother and concubine, I will finish it happily.
"Don't Feng'er like to eat?"
Concubine Li Gui was a little nervous, and asked softly.
Xie Wufeng pondered, "No, the taste is not bad."
To tell the truth, no matter the two meals eaten in the Imperial Dining Room or Fengchao Palace, in Xie Wufeng's eyes, they are very delicious and delicious.
At least it was much better than the food I ate on the way during this period of time.
The calm and indifferent tone made Concubine Li think that her son didn't like these dishes, "Why don't you ask the small kitchen to prepare some for you again? You can tell my concubine what Feng'er wants to eat."
While speaking, Concubine Li Gui's eyes were full of worry. Her son seemed to have lost a lot of weight. Although his face was much more angular and not as childish as before, it always carried a lonely and cold aura.
"It's okay, these dishes are quite good." Xie Wufeng raised the corner of his mouth slightly, squeezed out a very unskilled smile, and smiled slightly at Concubine Li Gui.
"My concubine sees that you have lost weight. Did you suffer a lot outside? When your cousin comes back, I will definitely reprimand him and vent your anger on you."
Concubine Li Gui still regards the boy in front of her as a child who has not grown up, and her son should not be bullied by others no matter what.
Immediately, she ordered to Gong'e behind her, "Go and let Wang Decai come over!"
"This"
The Gong'e eunuchs behind them trembled all over. They all got the orders of the prince. When the third highness is here, they must take good care of them, and they must not make any mistakes.
Concubine Li Gui is now calling the prince over, so who is going to be punished?
A palace woman behind her was sweating on her forehead, and stammered, "Yes, yes, mother, mother, I, just, go."
"Forget it, you go!"
Concubine Li Gui heard that the maid behind her was squeaking and couldn't speak clearly, so she turned her head and gave instructions to another maid beside her.
"Your cousin, he is not bad. You should listen to him more in the future. Although Anyang is not a big state, it is still close to the capital. In the future, my mother and concubine will ask for a favor for you, so that His Majesty the Emperor will seal you to Anyang. "
Although Concubine Li has always been deep in the harem, she is not an ignorant and ordinary woman, and she has also experienced treacherous things in the palace.
"No, if my concubine wants to know the whereabouts of Marquis Anyang, I can tell you."
Xie Wufeng had already guessed what Concubine Li Gui was thinking, it was nothing more than a big change in her temperament, she wanted to ask Li Daozong, Marquis of Anyang to clarify the situation as soon as possible.
What happened on the way to the south, Wang Decai was the emperor, so he would not reveal the truth to Concubine Li Gui, and kept many eunuchs in the Palace of Fengchao silent.
Any rumors about the third prince being outside, not a single word should flow into the Fengchao Hall.
"What's the meaning of Feng'er?"
Concubine Li Gui's beautiful face showed a trace of astonishment, she never thought that her son's title of Marquis of Anyang had changed.
In the past, uncle and uncle were always shouting non-stop, but now there are only three words in front of me.Concubine Li Gui, who has an exquisite mind, naturally noticed the unusualness.
"You all go down first."
Xie Wufeng glanced at the people in the hall, his tone was cold, not angry and pretentious.
At this moment, Concubine Li Gui also felt a little palpitation, as if she didn't know the son in front of her at all.
Unexpectedly, Concubine Li Gui saw many court eunuchs in the palace bowed their heads and saluted, then filed out and all retreated outside the palace.
"This..." Concubine Li looked at the scene in front of her, feeling a little unreal.When did these servants become so obedient in front of their sons.
Even the eunuch on duty and several stewards under the eaves of the palace quickly disappeared from sight.
At the same time, Lu Zhongliang quickly guarded around the courtyard with more than a dozen personal guards.
These people were all personal guards who had followed Xie Wufeng to conquer the country of Yan in the south, and they were also the group of personal guards who stood outside the camp and resisted desperately when Xie Wufeng was besieged by martial arts experts.
"Feng'er, what are you doing?"
Xie Wufeng quietly looked at the beautiful woman beside him, her makeup was very delicate, he pondered for a moment and asked, "Do you like Emperor Qian?"
He didn't want to care about these two people in this life anymore, one was "father" Emperor Qian, and the other was the beautiful woman in front of him.
But when he walked into this Fengchao Palace, the memory of Xie Wufeng in this life involuntarily surged into his heart and entered the long river of memory.
The woman in front of her was dressed in a gorgeous palace dress, with a delicate face, and she was favored by the king at first glance.
No wonder, Xie Wufeng has grown so much, and he can still live in the palace for a long time, which shows the Emperor Qian's love for Concubine Li Gui.
Xie Wufeng was often bullied when he was a child, but every time the mother and concubine in front of him came forward in person, and even did not hesitate to make trouble in front of the former Emperor Qianhuang.
Xie Wufeng's memories of more than ten years are full of meticulous care for children.
Every day, every moment, as long as she is in the Fengchao Palace, Concubine Li will always watch her son playing and playing in the courtyard with a loving face.
Even during the half a year of studying at Tianyan Academy, Concubine Li Gui would always ask Marquis Anyang to visit the academy once a day.
Knowing how much his cousin loved Xie Wufeng, Li Daozong took his son Li Mo along with him.
This is why Li Mo got so familiar with Xie Wufeng in Tianyan Academy.
However, this cousin often cheated him.
Bit by bit of the past, appeared in the back of his mind, so he asked this question to the woman in front of him.
If she really likes Emperor Qian, Xie Wufeng turned around and left without asking any more questions.
Regarding what Qianhuang did before, Quan pretended it never happened.
If there are other secrets in it, Xie Wufeng will give the mother in this life a stable life.
"Feng'er, what's wrong with you?"
Concubine Li Gui looked at her completely unfamiliar son and asked nervously.
"It's okay, I'll just ask. Do you like him?" Xie Wufeng's tone became more and more flat, his eyes were silently looking at the concubine beside him.
At this moment, he saw a trace of struggle from Concubine Li Gui's face, and a trace of panic that had never appeared in his eyes.
Concubine Li recalled that night 19 years ago, a rainy night with thunder and lightning, the army surrounded the mountain, her husband died in the rebellion, and she was the only one hiding in the palace trembling with her infant child in her arms.
The husband is the only remaining line of the prince, and more than a dozen members of their family escaped from the capital under the protection of the dead guards.
Fleeing all the way north, trying to leave Qianguo to avoid this mutiny.
As a result, when he fled to the Wufeng Mountain Palace, he was surrounded by rebels.
In order to protect the baby boy in her arms, she chose to commit herself to the traitor, her husband's uncle, now His Majesty Qian Huang.
Seeing the mournful expression on the mother's concubine's face, Xie Wufeng turned his head sideways, watching the red lanterns hanging under the eaves fluttering in the wind. "Since my concubine doesn't want to say it, I won't force it."
Huo Long'er suddenly felt that the surrounding atmosphere was a bit weird, and asked curiously, "What's the matter?", with a sweet and soft voice, and looked at the two of them sideways with wide eyes, eyes full of "doubt".
"Feng'er. Feng'er, you must not be impulsive, as long as you can live well."
This is a mother's greatest hope for her son. She also knows that there is a reason why Xie Wufeng was constantly bullied in the past. Someone must be instigating behind his back, but those are the sons of the emperor, and she can only do her best to protect them. Be good to my son.
Only by staying by your side can you not be secretly hurt by others.
Xie Wufeng saw a hint of helplessness, helplessness, and fear in the eyes of this loving mother.I feel a little sad, what is the reason that made the emperor want to kill himself, and his mother and concubine are so afraid?
After pondering for a moment, Xie Wufeng's eyes suddenly changed to pitch black.
Seeing that her son's eyes suddenly changed, and his pupils turned completely black, Concubine Li Gui almost screamed out, but she soon lost consciousness.
"Soul Seizing Technique."
Xie Wufeng once again performed a soul-searching technique from his previous life, and a dark cloud suddenly appeared above the Fengchao Hall, which once again aroused the vigilance of many people in the palace.
A few old eunuchs who had been hiding in the dark corners opened their eyes slightly. As old monster-level existences, they would perceive even slight changes in the vitality of the surrounding world, let alone a drastic change like a sudden drop.
The dark cloud became more and more solid, covering the entire imperial city continuously, but dissipated in an instant.
This is not the first time Xie Wufeng has used the "Soul Seizing Technique", this time the aura was very precise and did not trigger any phenomena of heaven and earth.
19 years ago, Kyoto Bloody Night.
The former prince's mansion was blood red and the ground was full of corpses.The rebels searched and hunted inside. A carriage drove quickly through an alley in the dark of night, followed by the sound of killing.
It was a life-and-death struggle between the powerhouses of the second rank, and hundreds of black armored cavalry who rushed over were cut off in the middle.
The people in the carriage couldn't care about this at all. A beautiful woman's face was pale, and her loose robe could no longer cover her bulging belly.
Beside him was a young man, also with a pale face, anxiously and nervously urging the coachman to leave the east city of Kyoto quickly.
"Your Highness, where are we going?" The woman's forehead was disheveled, and her eyes were full of fear.
"Escape from Kyoto first and go to the north. There are [-] forbidden troops in the north. We, we will be fine, and you and the child will be fine." The young man's robe was already stained with blood, and he squeezed out a comforting smile. Turning back to appease the woman.
The blood on the robe continued to drip on the carpet in the carriage, not only from him but also from his father and brother.
Under the full protection of more than a dozen martial arts experts, the carriage rushed out of the east gate in the dark.
The sound of fighting behind him gradually faded away, and there were less than three guards accompanying the carriage.
A coachman, two second-rank powerhouses.
"His Royal Highness, are you okay?" A second-rank powerhouse panted heavily and kept looking back. He had already stabbed the horse under his crotch several times. It is possible to fall dead.
"I'm all right, Mr. Wang, how are you?" The young man in the carriage asked hoarsely.
It's a long way to the north, and I don't know the way ahead, but the pursuers behind them are searching for traces of their carriage.
"Thank you, Your Highness, Grandson, for your concern. We are fine." The second-rank strongman surnamed Wang swallowed the bright red blood that poured into his throat, and Qiangzi raised his breath to maintain his energy.
Immediately, he shouted to the second-rank strong man on the other side of the carriage, "You protect His Highness and Concubine Taisun to the Wufeng Mountain Palace. There is a garrison there, and you will be able to protect His Highness and their safety."
"What about you?" An old man's hoarse voice came from the other side of the carriage, also exhausted and vain.
The second-rank old man surnamed Wang turned his horse's head, faced the direction when he came, and said in a deep voice, "I'm here to stop the pursuers, you guys hurry up!"
The few people didn't hesitate anymore, but the carriage didn't drive fast, bypassed the mountain road, and disappeared among the mountains in the north.
In the next few days, the woman in the carriage endured the bumps all the time, but she still tried her best to protect the fetus, so that the child in her belly would not have any accidents.
Ever since the second-rank strongman surnamed Wang blocked the pursuers, the carriage had never met the pursuers again.
In order to escape for their lives, they exhausted all the horses on the way.
The young men staggered with the support of the woman. They did not dare to enter the town for fear of being caught by the pursuers.
You can only walk on the mountain trails.
Sleeping in the open all the way, sleeping day and night, he can only hide in the forest.During the period, the woman's body was completely exhausted due to continuous fleeing, and she contracted a cold. The young man used his remaining breath to continue her life.
And the remaining two guards, one is the coachman and the other is a second-rank powerhouse, guarding them.They could no longer use more energy to restore the Concubine Taisun's blood.
The two need to deal with the sudden danger, so as not to suddenly rush into the pursuers in the dark.
In this way, the woman miraculously survived, and the four of them finally arrived at the Wufeng Mountain Palace a hundred miles away from the capital after [-] days.
But the bigger nightmare has just begun. The garrison of Wu Fengshan's palace has already mutinied, and the four of them have become sheep among wolves and have been put under house arrest.
In the end, the young man, the second-rank powerhouse, and the coachman tried their best to get the girl out of the tiger's mouth, but everything was futile.
On a rainy night, the woman gave birth to a baby boy in the palace.
Xie Wufeng also saw the appearance of himself when he was born 19 years ago at this time, "It's so ugly!", but the woman still hugged the baby boy tightly in her arms.
At the same time, Xie Wufeng also saw Li Guifei 19 years ago in the memory of Li Guifei, dressed in a yellow robe, just like the Emperor Qianhuang when he was young.
"As long as you are willing to be with me, he can live on and be treated as my son."
The woman's beautiful face was pale, her eyes were red and swollen, and she heard the silence outside the palace.
He looked down at the baby boy in his arms again, choking silently.
Until now, Xie Wufeng let out a long sigh, and finally figured out why Emperor Qian wanted to kill him.
The original Xie Wufeng is the legacy of the former prince, so naturally he cannot stay in this world.
Xie Wufeng couldn't bear to look at his concubine who had been hit by the "Soul Seizing Technique", he picked her up and put her on the bed in the inner hall.
Then he returned to the main hall, found a place at random, leaned on the back of the chair, and relaxed.
"Master, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing Xie Wufeng's disappointed expression, Huo Long'er put down the only piece of pastry left in his hand, and opened his eyes nervously.
After following Xie Wufeng closely for so long, it was the first time for her to see her master so lost and sad.
Huo Long'er put his little head on Xie Wufeng's arm, rubbed it back and forth, and looked at him with concern.
Xie Wufeng stroked Huo Long'er's little head, and comforted him, "I'm fine, I'm thinking about how to deal with this matter."
On the one hand, it is necessary to rush to Huangbei City as soon as possible to explore the secrets in the mountains, rivers and forests.
On the other side is the mother who has worked so hard to take care of him in this life. Xie Wufeng didn't know how to make a decision for a while.
After pondering for a moment, Xie Wufeng looked down at Huo Long'er who had fallen asleep, a light flashed in his eyes, and he said to himself, "It's not appropriate to send it to Anyang Prefecture, the second-rank powerhouse didn't protect their husband and wife Two people. I'm afraid it won't work with just one Anyang Marquis."
"Or let Huo Long'er stay and take care of his mother first."
After an unknown amount of time, Lu Zhongliang's voice came from outside the door. "Your Highness, the prince is asking to see you."
Xie Wufeng was stunned for a moment, thinking that Wang Ensheng had come back to life, and then he remembered that there was only one person in the inner palace called Wang Gonggong, and that was the ancestor of all the eunuchs, Wang Decai.
In order not to disturb Li Guifei's rest, Xie Wufeng got up and walked out of the hall, stood on the stone steps and glanced indifferently at the old eunuch standing in the courtyard.
"What's the matter?"
"Reporting to the Third Highness, officials from the Ministry of Rites have come to report that your residence has been properly arranged. The old servant is here to ask, when is the Third Highness planning?"
"I didn't expect that the Ministry of Rituals was very attentive in handling the matter, and it was completed in less than three hours." Xie Wufeng raised his eyebrows and glanced at the sky, with a cold and arrogant expression.
The sun was dazzling, and the golden afterglow fell on the palace with golden tiles and red walls. Wang Decai's hunched figure cast an extremely long reflection on the ground.
Wang Decai stood quietly under the afterglow, with his head down, doing his job as an old slave, waiting for his master's reply.
Xie Wufeng pondered for a moment, he originally wanted to choose the residence of the former prince, but thought that leaving his mother there alone might bring back her past sadness, so he finally gave up.
"Okay, you go and tell Emperor Qian, my mother, and I will take it away."
Hearing that the tone was entirely informing, without the slightest intention of discussing, Wang Decai's heart trembled. Everyone in the imperial city knew the status of Concubine Li Gui in His Majesty's heart.
All those who knew the identity of Concubine Li Gui were all beheaded back then, and they only pretended to be the cousin of Marquis Anyang and married into the royal family.
Now, if His Majesty the Third Highness wanted to take her mother and concubine out of the palace, His Majesty the Emperor Qianhuang would definitely not agree to it. This was simply in the face of His Majesty the Emperor.
"Third Highness, why is this? This old slave needs to report to His Majesty the Emperor."
Wang Decai raised his head slightly, his gaze flitted across Xie Wufeng's face, hoping to see some of Xie Wufeng's emotional changes.
There are even more speculations in my heart, "Could it be that Concubine Li Gui told the Third Highness about that matter, and the Third Highness wants to..."
Thinking of this, Wang Decai's back was wet with cold sweat again, and he didn't dare to think about it any more.He was a witness to what happened back then. Many people have died in Qianguo. If he experienced it once, he really couldn't believe the consequences.
At that time, almost all the aristocratic families of the Qian Kingdom were affected, and many of the main lineages of the direct line were killed in pieces.
This is why all the princes were sent to guard a state.
I thought that these princes wanted to keep the capital so that the imperial court could take care of it.But on the night of 19 years, these princes were completely released, and became important officials guarding one side of the border, with unparalleled power for a while.
Xie Wufeng glanced indifferently at Wang Decai who was still standing there.He said coldly, "Why? Still not going?"
"This old servant will report to His Majesty." Wang Decai froze and hurriedly bowed and said goodbye.
Xie Wufeng's strength, he had already seen it in the Tai Chi Hall this morning, and that giant dragon, if he really offended this one, I'm afraid it would be difficult for all Zhu Lang to attack at the same time, and it might be difficult to save himself here.
"What! This Nizi wants to take away the noble concubine?" Qianhuang slapped the imperial case heavily with his palm, roaring like thunder, and said angrily, "Nizi, Nizi, Nizi"
Emperor Qian didn't know what to do for a while, if Xie Wufeng forcibly took him away, no one in the Forbidden Palace of the Imperial City would be able to stop him now.
Just relying on the giant dragon, even those old monsters in the Forbidden Palace to attack together, probably won't help.
"Your Majesty, it's okay to let him take the imperial concubine out to relax." Zhang Tailin seemed to remind him meaningfully.
"He can't wait to go south to destroy Yan. Since he previously advocated that the crown prince be in command, His Majesty might as well agree. He wants to go to Huangbei City. His purpose is obvious. It is nothing more than mountains, rivers and forests.
"
"That's fine. If he wants to compete with the martial arts experts from Qian, Yan, Jin, and Chu, His Majesty might as well go along with the flow. At that time, the army only needs to wait for work outside Huangbei City, so why worry about hidden dangers?"
Hearing Zhang Tailin's narration finished, Emperor Qian nodded heartily, took another cup of tea from the little eunuch at the side, drank it hastily, and let out a long breath.
"Okay, let's do it like this. Nizi will never take the imperial concubine to the mountains, rivers and forests." Qianhuang's eyes became extremely cold at this moment, with a cold smile on the corner of his mouth, he took a deep breath, and then exhaled slowly, his face was extremely cold. Unsightly, he said displeasedly, "Then let the imperial concubine go out of the palace to relax."
In Fengchao Hall, when Concubine Li Gui woke up, it was already nightfall, and the carriage had already been prepared in the courtyard outside the hall.
Then she learned that her son was named King Wu, and she was given a mansion, and she was allowed to go out of the palace with her son to relax.
Concubine Li Gui's first reaction was to panic, thinking that Emperor Qian wanted to kill his son.Hastily ordered someone to wash and dress her up, and was about to intercede with His Majesty Qian Huang.
However, he was stopped by Huo Long'er in the end. "Ma'am, don't worry, my master is very powerful, no one can bully you in the future."
While Concubine Li Gui was in a coma, Xie Wufeng had already confessed to Huo Long'er that he was going to the mountains, rivers and forests, and His Majesty Huo Long'er stayed to take care of "Madam".
At first, Huo Long'er was reluctant, but Xie Wufeng promised to move the small kitchen in the Fengchao Palace to her, and Huo Long nodded happily, clenching his fists and swearing, "I must protect Madam well." , there will never be any surprises."
"What? Feng'er is very powerful?" Concubine Li Gui looked at the innocent little girl in front of her, and suddenly laughed, thinking of her own innocence back then, if not for herself, the Prince's Mansion would not have suffered.
"It's really powerful!" Huo Long'er blinked her big watery eyes and pouted to explain.
"Mother, since Emperor Qian has promised you to leave the palace, you might as well go out for a walk and relax."
Just when Concubine Li Gui was dragged by Huo Long'er to walk towards the outer hall, Xie Wufeng walked in from the outside, his tone softened a lot.
The woman in front of him had paid too much for him in this life.Treat her as your own mother.
"Mother!"
Hearing these two words, Concubine Li Gui's eyes became moist again, he had never heard Xie Wufeng calling himself like this.Even Xie Wufeng in the past just called himself "Mother Concubine!"
This "concubine" was given to her by Emperor Qian. She had to obey Emperor Qian just to protect her son.
Now, her son has grown up and is trying to take her out of the palace.In order to thank Wu Feng for his safety, Concubine Li still shook her head and said, "No, you don't know, terrible things will happen if you do this."
"I, I know." Xie Wufeng's eyes were firm, facing Li Guifei's dodging and begging eyes, he felt a little sore in his heart.
How much pain did this woman endure so that he could survive in this world.
Seeing his mother's hesitant look, Xie Wufeng took a few steps forward, hugged Concubine Li Gui into his arms and said firmly, "Mother, I know everything, and I will protect you from now on. Don't worry, don't be afraid."
"Feng'er." Concubine Li Gui's beautiful face pressed against Xie Wufeng's shoulder, sobbing.
Seeing this scene, Huo Long'er also burst into tears, whimpering, "I miss my mother too, mother"
For a moment, the Fengchao Hall was filled with Huo Long'er's weeping, which directly froze Xie Wufeng and Li Guifei on the spot.
"Don't cry!"
"Hey, don't cry!"
Xie Wufeng glared at Huolong, while Li Guifei's eyes were full of doting, and felt that the little girl in the red skirt in front of her was also a person with a terrible life experience, so she also looked at her more and more doting.
Without waiting for Concubine Li Gui to struggle, Xie Wufeng directly dragged his mother to the outside of the hall.
In the courtyard, Lu Zhongliang and others stood respectfully beside more than a dozen carriages, and at the same time saluted the young man at the main entrance of Fengchao Hall, "Join Your Highness King Wu."
After everyone learned that His Royal Highness was named King Wu, they were also extremely excited.
More than a dozen carriages were filled with some personal clothing, jewelry and other items that Li Guifei used daily.
In addition, the small kitchen in Fengchao Hall was emptied, and the cooks inside were also taken away, those were Huo Long'er's favorite.
In the night, more than ten carriages drove out of the imperial city, all the way to the north, passing through more than ten bustling streets and shops, attracting many people in Kyoto to watch.
The carriage drove slowly, and Concubine Li Gui glanced at the bustling streets of Kyoto from time to time. The last time she saw such a scene was when she was in the Prince's Mansion, and it was nearly 20 years ago.
The carriage was moving very slowly, although there were only a dozen or so guards, no one dared to approach.The group stopped outside a mansion two streets east of Tianyan Academy.
Prince Wu's Mansion was the mansion of a prince from the previous dynasty. Because of a crime committed by that prince, his family was exiled to the western frontier, and the mansion remained vacant all the time.
Wuwang Mansion occupies a huge area, among which there are dotted with pavilions, terraces and buildings, and there are as many as ten courtyards with winding water cups.The backyard is even more deeply gardened, and the birdsong is empty.
Hubu originally wanted to get it from Zongzheng Temple, and then sell it to fill the treasury, but was secretly stopped by someone sent by the First Prince.
As a result, unexpectedly, the Ministry of Rites now used it to curry favor with His Highness King Wu. His Highness Xie Wufeng was the first prince conferred by His Majesty Qianhuang, and the other princes had no titles yet.
At the gate of the mansion, there are two giant stone lions with a height of three people tied around their necks with bright red silk and satin, and there are also lanterns and festoons in front of the mansion gate.
A large number of officials and carriages have gathered outside the gate of the mansion, which are filled with congratulatory gifts.
Among them, there were even six confidantes of Qinghou who once conquered Yan Kingdom with Xie Wufeng also came to congratulate with heavy gifts.
"Wang Feng, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, congratulations to His Highness King Wu!"
"Member of the officers and soldiers, Wailang Mu Ziyue, congratulations to His Highness King Wu!"
At this moment, the third prince, who was not cared about in the past, gathered in front of the six officials from various yamen to congratulate him, and they were even more generous in their compliments and congratulations.
"His Royal Highness King Wu's future is limitless!"
Someone even yelled in public, "His Royal Highness King Wu will surely be crowned the Great Treasure in the future!"
Many officials did not point out that even if the prince of a real dragon lord does not ascend the throne in the future, his status and power will certainly not be inferior to ordinary princes.
Suddenly hearing so many officials congratulating her son, Concubine Li Gui finally calmed down a little, but she still looked worried.
Although Emperor Qian seemed to be peaceful for more than ten years, he ruled by doing nothing, and used military generals and princes to suppress the aristocratic family, but at the same time he continued to win over the aristocratic family and the sect.
Concubine Li Gui has a deep fear of this Qianhuang, which radiates from the depths of her bones.
From the bloody night in Kyoto, she and her husband ran for their lives all the way to the place of deep despair.
