"I don't dare!" Zheng Taihe's complexion fluctuated a bit, and he kowtowed several times straight to the ground, "I only care about the safety of the Holy One, so I really have no choice but to lead troops into the palace. I'm negligent of duty." , and ask the Holy One to punish you."

"What Zheng Dusi said is not quite right." The corner of the fourth prince's mouth pulled down, he glanced at Zheng Taihe dissatisfied, clicked his tongue for a long time, then shook his head and said with a smile. "Zheng Dusi keeps saying that it is for the safety of the Holy One, and the Tiger Wing Army is the personal guard of the Holy One. How can there be any dereliction of duty? Oh, I wronged Zheng Dusi earlier!" Go to pull Zheng Taihe, "Don't resent me, Zheng Dusi. My father is a little more straight-tempered, or, Zheng Dusi kicked me twice, is it to relieve your anger?"

"Fourth!" Emperor Cheng Ming stared at the fourth prince, his eyes were obviously a bit worried, but his face was a little more relaxed than before.

The fourth prince chuckled, took a quick step back, cupped his hands towards Emperor Cheng Ming and said, "Please ask your sage to observe clearly, a group of people outside... seem to be making a lot of noise. How about I ask you to persuade me?"

The third prince's eyes flickered slightly, and his clenched fingers suddenly loosened, followed by the fourth prince's words: "I am willing to go with the fourth brother."

"Nonsense!" Emperor Cheng Ming slapped the table with his palm, and with a slap, he also stood up and walked down the hall slowly, looking at Zheng Taihe with cold eyes, and sneered after a long time. "There's too much noise outside, and I'm so upset. It seems that the Tiger Wing Army is getting more courageous. You're not in charge, but you took the knife first. It really is my personal guard!"

Emperor Cheng Ming's voice paused, followed by another suppressed low cough.The waiter hurriedly moved the chair.He supported Cheng Mingdi to sit down.

"You bastard! Why hasn't the imperial physician come yet?" The fourth prince tore his hair irritably, kicked the servant on the buttocks, and shouted impatiently, "Go again!"

The little servant fell to the ground, nodded hurriedly, got up, and ran out staggeringly.

The eldest prince's face darkened again, he pinched Yu Jue with his fingers, and glanced at Gu Changwen who was also frowning with an ugly expression.

The second prince stood quietly behind the eldest prince.His complexion was hidden under the shadow of the lamp, making it hard to see any emotions.

The third prince calmly leaned next to Emperor Cheng Ming, frowned, stared at Zheng Taihe gloomyly and shouted: "Zheng Dusi is not a coward! Could it be that the Tiger Wing Army even wanted to stop the imperial physician?"

"This humble minister has neglected his duty, please please the Holy One to appease his anger." Zheng Taihe frowned, with a look of embarrassment and distress.But his back was straight, and his voice was deep and powerful, and even the terrified female relatives in the side hall heard it clearly, "The Tiger Wing Army is the personal guard of the Holy One, and they dare not disregard the safety of the Holy One. Ye Shengnan led people to trespass." The Forbidden Palace, the behavior is suspicious. I have to stop..."

Zheng Taihe hadn't finished speaking when a shrill scream suddenly sounded outside the Zichen Hall—a bloodstained soldier grabbed the frightened little servant at the door with one hand.He rushed in with a bloody arm in one hand.

Qian Deliang, who was standing not far from the entrance of the hall, turned pale, frowned, suppressed the churning in his stomach, pointed at the soldier and shouted: "Presumptuous! Who let you in!"

The soldier was full of evil spirits, his face was blurred with blood, and he couldn't see his face clearly at all, so he only glanced coldly at Qian Deliang.

Qian Deliang's heart shuddered.Swallowing, he forced himself to look away.Pointing at the bloody arm with trembling fingers, he shouted, "How can such filth be brought into the temple? Why don't you just throw it away?"

Hearing this, the soldier nodded without saying a word, and threw the little servant who was trembling with fright on the ground with a bang, then leaned over and picked up the bloody arm on the ground and threw it out, and then slapped it on his face indiscriminately. After wiping it, he bypassed Qian Deliang, walked to Zheng Taihe's side, knelt down straight on the ground, and said in a deep voice to Emperor Chengming: "My lord, Ye Shengnan led people to break into the Forbidden Palace without authorization, and it belongs to One of his arms has been crippled, and the rest of the personnel have been captured. The Tiger Wing Army lost ten people and injured 20 people. There is no exact number of the casualties of the maids."

The third prince's heart skipped a beat, and he clenched his hands in his sleeves again, his expression extremely ugly.With a livid face, the eldest prince suddenly raised his foot and kicked towards the soldier, and shouted sharply: "How can you describe it like this? How can you be holy? Why don't you get out?"

The fourth prince raised his eyebrows, stared at the eldest prince with a look of surprise, then glanced at the soldier who got up from the ground, took a deep breath, and lifted the blood-stained red spot on the soldier's body with his fingertips. Yixiu curled his lips in distaste, and coughed at Zheng Taihe: "The people led by Zheng Dusi are really extraordinary, even a small soldier has such great ability. Hey, I'm really worried right now," said Frowning again, he looked at Emperor Cheng Ming in distress and panic, "This Ye Shengnan lost an arm when he trespassed in the Forbidden Palace, and the people outside may be missing something else! Hey, I have to go to Feihualou soon." , Cough cough, I have to go back home... This bloody appearance is really disgusting... I can't stand it!" He frowned again and kept breathing.

Seeing the frowning and winking of the fourth prince, the second prince sighed, with a bit of distress between his brows, and pulled the elder prince's arm to persuade him: "Brother, calm down. If it wasn't for the Tiger Wing Army outside, Ye Shengnan pointed Maybe I just broke in and forced the palace." He sighed again, and turned his eyes to Ye Tianming, who was in the crowd with a gray beard, "General Ye is a veteran of the three dynasties, and I can trust him. It's just that his children and grandchildren are unfilial, and General Ye has to pay for it." Think about it!"

Ye Tianming ignored the second prince's words at all, the majesty and vigor on his face disappeared, he just knelt down on the ground, bowed to Emperor Chengming, and said in a deep voice: "The old minister has nothing to say!"

Emperor Cheng Ming's breathing was unsteady, his face flushed abnormally, he covered his mouth and coughed lowly, while waved his hands dejectedly, but he couldn't say a word.

The third prince's gaze dimmed instantly, and he felt a chill from head to toe—the Holy Majesty's body, I'm afraid it really won't be able to hold on!

The fourth prince frowned, turned around anxiously, turned around, suddenly stopped, blinked, and asked for instructions from Emperor Cheng Ming: "Your Majesty is not feeling well, it's better to take a rest first. Son, why don't you let the three prime ministers preside over the overall situation first? This palace is in chaos... people are in a state of panic. After all, it makes people uneasy."

Emperor Cheng Ming took a deep breath, raised his eyelids and glanced at the simple and honest fourth prince, raised his hand with some effort, before the hand fell down, the second prince suddenly stepped forward to squeeze the fourth prince away, and saluted to Emperor Cheng Ming: " What the fourth brother said is very true, the holy one should put the dragon body as the most important thing. It's just that the people in the palace are not stable at the moment, the officials are panicked, and the several ministers are getting older. I'm afraid it won't be enough to make such a fuss, and there must be more A person who can hold on is in charge."

As soon as these words came out, the officials were silent.The eldest prince's face turned dark again, and he exchanged glances with Gu Changwen, both of them gasped.

The third prince stared at the second prince coldly.There was a turmoil in my heart, no wonder the second child has been silent, it turns out that... Zheng Taihe is really the second child.

The fourth prince's eyes widened and he let out a sigh. Seeing the second prince looking over, he coughed twice again as if trying to cover up, and said with a chuckle, "Second brother is more thoughtful. If you want me to tell you, the eldest brother, the second brother and the third brother can take care of whoever is in charge." !" The fourth prince waved his hands and shook his head again and again, and took a step back.Hiding behind Emperor Cheng Ming, he coughed, "I'm lazy, so don't pull me anyway. Look, Your Majesty, what's the matter?"

The fourth prince looked hesitantly at Emperor Cheng Ming's face, expecting and praying.

Emperor Cheng Ming finally got over his breath slowly, raised his eyes and looked around the hall, his eyes stopped for a moment on the several princes.His eyes were gloomy with majesty and oppression, and it took a long time before he pointed at Zheng Taihe and sneered: "My sons, each has its own merits. The palms and backs of my hands are full of flesh, and I have never been able to bear it. Now that I am about to go to the ground, I should choose one with pain." Come out to preside over the overall situation. Zheng Dusi thinks, who is more suitable?"

Zheng Taihe's eyes shrunk slightly, but his face was extremely calm, as if hesitating for a moment, he bowed solemnly just now, raised his head and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty is virtuous and virtuous, and the princes are all dragons and phoenixes among men, with extraordinary talents. If I really want to choose, I think..."

"Your Majesty——" Zheng Taihe had just finished speaking, when a sharp cry came from outside the Zichen Hall, everyone in the hall was stunned, and then they saw Su Wen, the head servant, fell into the door with sweat on his head, his clothes were wrinkled , still stained with blood on the front of his clothes, with disheveled hair, stumbled, lying on the ground, breathlessly replied, "Here we are... Zheng An, Commander Zheng, brought people into the palace..."

The hall was extremely silent for a while, the smile on the corners of the second prince's mouth froze on his face, the first prince and the third prince heaved a sigh of relief at the same time, the fourth prince blinked, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes very quickly.

Zheng Taihe's complexion suddenly became gloomy, swallowed the second half of the words, and stared at Su Wen firmly.Su Wen panted one after another, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and stepped back under Zheng Taihe's stare.

In the blink of an eye, the outside of the hall suddenly became noisy again, and the crisp sound of weapons clashing could be heard vaguely.

Emperor Cheng Ming's eyes lit up, and he stood up abruptly, his complexion turned blue, and there was a chilling smile on his face.

Standing in the corner, Duke Wei Qingming frowned, and Liu Huaijin, the uncle of sincerity, looked at each other, and there was a dead silence in their eyes.Liu Huaishen frowned slightly, then slowly relaxed, his eyes fell on Su Wen, his eyelids moved slightly.

All the officials in the hall held their breaths and stared intently at the entrance of the hall.The wives in the side hall also looked pale, and they didn't dare to show their air.

After a quarter of an hour, the sound of fighting outside the hall gradually stopped.With the sound of the hall door creaking, the hearts of all the people in the hall trembled, and their eyes were fixed on the door motionlessly.

Zheng An, with a resolute face and a hulking back, walked out of the shadows, stepped directly into the hall, and cupped his hands towards a group of people in the hall. His gaze stayed on Zheng Taihe for a moment, then he moved away expressionlessly, and walked in front of Emperor Cheng Ming. After saluting, he said in a deep voice: "My minister is late, please punish me."

Emperor Cheng Ming waved his hands indifferently, stroked his chest and slowly took a breath, fixed his eyes on Zheng An and asked, "Where is the person?"

Zheng An seemed to be stunned for a moment, his brows were slightly frowned, his eyes were as cold as a sharp sword and shot at Su Wen at the door, then he took a breath, kowtowed his head to the ground again, and said in a deep voice: "I heard that someone Trespassing into the Forbidden Palace, following the orders of the Holy Majesty, came to rescue him... However, no one has been found before..."

Cheng Mingdi's chest heaved, his eye sockets protruded, he pointed at Zheng An, his lips were trembling, but he suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
