The Legend of the Loved One

Chapter 131

Knowing that the Xu family is very powerful, in order to prevent Xu Jilin from resisting the order, the Ministry of Criminal Affairs sent out a large number of people to "invite" him into prison this time, no less than a team of nearly a thousand people, and there are many experts among them. submit.

However, to everyone's surprise, upon hearing that someone had arrived at the gate of the mansion, Xu Jilin took the initiative to go out and followed him to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

After Xu Jilin was imprisoned, Chu Xue's heart was completely at ease.

The witnesses and material evidence gathered, and the Chou's family has already been imprisoned in the prison. Now, as long as Xu Jilin pleads guilty to the law at the final trial of the three divisions, his father's revenge will be completely avenged.Even if Xu Jilin refuses to plead guilty, he will not be able to escape now that there are all witnesses and material evidence. In fact, the final interrogation is just a procedure.

And because the foreign envoys hadn't left yet, Song Chen moved back the final interrogation, planning to wait half a month before the outsiders go back before closing the case. Firstly, he still has to talk to the foreign guests now. Dealing with each other, I was too busy to take care of it.Furthermore, this unjust case is after all related to the honor of the father and the emperor. As the saying goes, family ugliness should not be exposed, and it is the same for a country.So the final conviction was announced to the world, and he decided to wait until the outsiders had left.

After the [-]th banquet, courtiers from various countries stayed for more than ten days one after another, and at the end of August, they all returned one after another.

September is high in autumn, which is a good time for hunting. The back mountain of the Luming Palace in the suburbs of Beijing is a paddock dedicated to royal hunting. The envoys have been in Beijing for more than a month. Not only the Ministry of Rites and others are busy, but Song Chen, the host, also feels that Tired and want to relax.So after the Double Ninth Festival, the king brought his children to the palace, ready to cultivate.

Li Jiaoyun had been ill for more than a month. Chu Xue knew that her body could no longer withstand the bumps, so she let her recuperate in the palace.Therefore, the only ones visiting the palace this time are the empress and a few children.

Busy on weekdays, it is rare to go out to the palace, so Song Chen went hunting on the second day after arriving at the palace. The emperor of Daqi was versatile in both civil and military affairs. Come back with all your heart.

This time Song Chi and Song Qian both asked for leave and did not come. Song Qi is now 15 years old. He has practiced martial arts since he was a child. Follow me, bring a few people with me, return in two hours, and show me your true skills!"

"Yes!"

This is exactly what the young man wanted, Song Qi happily thanked his father, and excitedly hit the horse, plunged into the depths of the hunting ground.

Two hours later, at the appointed time, the young man returned to the original place. The father and son both carried their prey on their horses. Although Song Qi's harvest was not as much as his father's, he was young after all, and such achievements were already very good. , Song Chen was very satisfied, a kind of pride of being a father emerged spontaneously.

"Very good. When I was your age, I also achieved this result." Song Chen praised.

The young man admired his father the most in his life. Now that he heard that he was at the same level as his father back then, he was greatly encouraged and couldn't hide his excitement. More than now!"

"Go!" Song Chen smiled gently, "Knives and arrows have no eyes, so you have to be careful, don't be greedy, the most important thing is to appreciate the fun and methods."

"Yes." Song Qi nodded, then stepped on the horse again, and disappeared like the wind.

Seeing the third son's back gradually drifting away, Song Chen secretly sighed for a while, and then thought of the youngest son, Xuan'er. The little guy is already more than three years old, and he can enjoy the fun of hunting.Thinking of this, the king ordered the people around him, "Go to the palace and bring the fourth prince to me."

"Yes." Lu Fang immediately took the order to go.

Although women can't go hunting, enjoying the scenery in the palace is also good.Chu Xue took the rest of the children to wander around the garden of the palace, admiring the gorgeous mountain scenery around them.

Although Li Jiaoyun couldn't come, but it was a rare chance to leave the palace, the two children followed, Song Qi went to the paddock, Song Ning stayed with Chu Xue.The nine-year-old girl is now the favorite big sister of the younger siblings. With her leading them, Le'er and Xuan'er An'an are much easier to take care of.

While listening to the mother and daughter talking by the master's side, Yanling saw Lu Fang coming from outside, with windy footsteps.

Yan Ling blushed slightly, nodded her head lightly, Lu Fang also saw her from a distance, and couldn't help but pause when she came outside the door.

She came out gently and asked him what was the matter, and he said: "The emperor wants to take the fourth prince to hunt." He usually looked cold and cold, but for some reason, when he saw her, his voice softened involuntarily.

She was obviously taken aback, and hesitated: "The fourth prince is only over three years old? The emperor wants to take him hunting?"

He nodded, "It is indeed the emperor's order."

Of course she knew that he would not lie, so despite being surprised, she went to pass the message to the master.

Seeing that Chu Xue was really surprised, she asked, "Xuan'er is only three years old..."

Before she could speak, she stopped again. Song Chen is a man of propriety, since he wants to take Xuan'er, let him go. Xuan'er really needs some masculinity as he stays with his sisters all day long. up.

She lowered her head slightly and instructed: "Then send it over and call the wet nurse... and you, follow along, you wait by the side, if Ruoxuan'er becomes mischievous and cries, you can coax her."

"Yes." Yanling quickly responded, and after a while, she hugged Xuan'er and followed Lu Fang with her nurse.

Seeing her bring the little prince over in person, he was a little taken aback by the way she was holding the little baby. When can such a picture belong to him, his own woman and two children?

In the evening, the man who had galloped all day came back with his prey, and the imperial cooks who came with him hurriedly cleaned up and made exquisite dishes. At night, another dinner was held in the palace.Just as the family on Luming Mountain was feeling warm, the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice began to change.

At [-] o'clock in the morning, when the prison guards were changing shifts, the batch of prison guards who came in tonight had some unfamiliar faces. These people took advantage of the night to deal with the real prison guards, and then quickly opened the door of a cell and locked the prisoner inside. When Xu Jilin saw the visitor, Xu Jilin didn't say much, and disappeared into the night with the visitor who had already been waiting outside.

The dinner party at Luming Mountain lasted until late at night, and it had been a long time since he could gallop as freely as he did today, and seeing Song Qi becoming more and more vigorous, Song Chen was very happy and drank a lot of fine wine, so that when he returned to the bedroom, Chu Xue was far away. I could smell the alcohol on him.

"Why did the emperor drink so much tonight?" Chu Xue frowned and asked, knowing that he was happy, she didn't blame him, and tried her best to help him to take a bath.

"Xue'er, in fact, I should bring you here more often. Next year, as soon as summer comes, we will come over."

The man in the bathtub had a flushed face and closed his eyes comfortably.

"Okay, I will write it down to the emperor first, and I will remind you when May enters next year." She laughed and teased him outside the tub.

Just bending over to wipe his arm, suddenly, that big hand firmly held her arm, before she could exclaim in surprise, with a crash, the whole person fell into the water, his movements were beautiful and steady, without any surprise. It was too embarrassing for her, and when she realized it, she found herself falling into his arms.

Only two hours later, the sound sleep was interrupted. In the early hours of the morning, someone eagerly woke up the empress outside, claiming that there was a change in the capital.

Xu Jilin escaped from the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and led his troops to invade the imperial palace with the intention of treason!

The two emperors and empresses, who were still tired, woke up immediately, dressed and got out of bed one after another, and got down to business.

Xu Jilin rebelled?
How dare he rebel!

Song Chen was frightened and angry, and immediately asked the person who reported the letter for the details.

It turned out that Xu Jilin had already made arrangements. He was not a person who was willing to let go of his rights for many years and was willing to be captured without a fight. Therefore, the calmness when he was arrested that day was just brewing a storm, a storm that completely vented his dissatisfaction.

His Xu family is a family of meritorious service. The surname of Da Qi's Jiang Shanneng is Song. A lot of credit comes from his father, Pei Guogong. Their Xu family, and himself, are also generals who have served half their lives for the stability of the world. Where did the title of Marquis of the South come from?

But since Song Chen ascended the throne, or since Song Chen had another Chu Xue beside him, all this has changed. First, his sister was deposed and died, and then his nephew was also deposed!His nephew was trained to be Song Chen's heir since birth, and when he was about to reach adulthood, he was also cruelly deposed by his father. Isn't it all because of that woman?

In his opinion, Song Chen has completely indulged in Chu Xue's beauty, and was completely led by her nose. His married wife can be disabled or killed, and his own eldest son can be cruelly deposed. What does this kind of behavior have to do with a faint king? the difference?
Therefore, it seems logical for him to fight hard under the banner of the Queen of Elimination of the Demon Queen. After all, he has no intention of becoming a king on his own. Song Chen does not have a crown prince now. His other two sons had "accidents", so regardless of his success or failure, the throne will fall on his nephew. Even if Song Chi is unwilling, there will still be Song Qian. Besides, Song Chi has to listen to himself now. words.

Although the palace gate is not that easy to attack, but as a general who has led the army for many years, Xu Jilin is not impatient at all. He knows that only the Queen Mother and Concubine Rong are left in the palace tonight. No matter how powerful the Imperial Guard is, there is no Song Chen. He does not believe that they can defeat his Xu family army—although Song Chen cut his title, he has already started planning since the day Song Chi was abolished, and there are many loyal soldiers under him. A royal palace shouldn't be a problem.

What's more, counting the time, another team of soldiers and horses should be about to reach Luming Mountain.

Luming Mountain Palace.

After figuring out the current situation, Song Chen has summoned the accompanying officials and quickly deployed countermeasures. It is not too late. The most important thing now is to protect the palace. If he hadn't guessed, Xu Jilin went straight to the palace. The goal was just to steal Long Yin, in addition, he may also want to move the Queen Mother and Concubine Rong. Even if he is defeated by then, if he threatens himself with the Queen Mother and Concubine Rong, he will definitely be passive. Safety is a top priority.

A team of troops was left to guard the safety of the palace, and another person was sent to release the signal. Song Chen mounted his horse immediately and prepared to go back to the palace to catch the traitor himself.

However, the mountain road had just started when Yu Jia encountered a swaying fire, and was heading up the mountain. The swaying fire was extremely eye-catching in the black mountain forest.

"Escort." Someone rushed in front of him immediately.

Song Chen stared, his brows slightly raised, and he recognized the leader of the army.

As the distance got closer and closer, the person on the opposite side had obviously recognized him.

"Father!"

The man immediately got off his horse and knelt down in front of him.

It was his eldest son, Song Chi.
