Dajing Sun and Moon

Chapter 27 The counterattack is finally here!

Xia Houchun had just killed the sick and consumptive ghost, when the sound of slight footsteps approached quickly, his eyes turned, and he saw three figures in brocade robes approaching each wounded, with different identities and naturally different postures.

The person on the left is covered with a gold-colored embroidered four-clawed python robe. On the robe is a black dragon staring, with huge dragon eyes, soaring through the clouds and riding the fog, looking at the sky with contempt.

The python clothes are like dragon clothes, which are similar to the royal robes of the Supreme Being, but with one claw less. There are also important ministers and dignitaries in Yasukuni who wear five-claw dragon clothes, but they are called "python dragons". The eunuch Chen Zhaosi is alone.

Although the visitor's boa robe only had four claws, it was enough to shake the forbidden area. Emperor Jing didn't dare to attack him, so he didn't kneel when he saw the prince, and his posture was neither humble nor overbearing.

The one in the middle is wrapped in azure blue palace clothes, embroidered with blue and blue facing the sky, spreading his wings and soaring, as if he is about to fly; the person has a tall bun with undulating waves, just like a female family member in the palace.

He lowered his eyebrows and looked submissive, but in fact his body was tense, ready to go at any time.

However, after a flash of Xia Houchun's eyes, he glanced at the kneeling man on the right, and kicked him down. He was dressed in a dragon fish suit, with black hair, black robe and white face. You are late, please forgive me, Your Highness."

The flying fish has a round body, more than ten feet long, wings like a cicada, a dragon head and a fish body. Because it means "a carp jumping over the dragon's gate", it is a standard uniform for the black robe guards.

Xia Houchun's eyes were gloomy, and he spat out cold words: "The black-robed guards belong to the Zhenmo Prison, and have the power to spy and arrest. You have been patrolling the capital for many years. During the Lantern Festival, you let Xiaoxiao infiltrate to such an extent. You don't regret your death!"

The Qingluan Guards belonged to the Wanning Palace, and most of the embroidered clothes envoys were withdrawn from the capital by Emperor Jing. Therefore, only the black-robed guards in the entire Taikang patrolled the four directions, so they were powerless.

And the person in front of him is Lin Hua, the Commander of the Black Robe Guard, who is the direct descendant of the prince.

But Xia Houchun was still furious, falling on the embroidered clothes envoy, and said sharply:
"My lair has been entered and exited in a grandiose manner, do you embroiderers also eat dry food?"

His name is Dong Jin, and he was originally a servant of a certain servant of the Imperial Horse Supervisor. He was an official under Emperor Jing when he was the crown prince.

However, this person is not slippery, and he has been in crisis many times but has not fallen down. His horse-buzzing ability is comparable to that of the "tumbler" Zhang Gelao.

But now the 24 prisons in the inner court are all under the control of Bingbi eunuch Chen Zhaosi, and Dong Jin, Liu Wenzhen and others are also counted as his disciples and grandchildren.

Now that Chen Zhaosi left the capital with Emperor Jing, and Liu Wenzhen served Xia Houchun, Dong Jin in front of him seemed to have the intention of moving closer to Wanning Palace.

According to Liu Wenzhen's disclosure, this person is cunning and scheming, with vicious and ruthless methods, and seems to have resentment against him.

Xia Houchun let out a sigh in his heart, no wonder Liu Wenzhen was 'promoted' to the East Palace by Emperor Jing, but this Jiancheng Dong was demoted and promoted secretly, and transferred to the Embroidery Envoy.

Hearing the crown prince's reprimand, Dong Jin lowered his eyes and said, "Reporting to Your Highness, it's not because of poor embroidery, it's because some gangsters raided the prison tonight, resulting in the murder of the prisoner Zhang Cheng'en and the robbery of the former commander of the Yulin Army."

"What?" Xia Houchun's face suddenly changed. Zhang Cheng'en was killed and Yang Zhong was robbed?
There was a huge wave in his heart, and he asked anxiously: "How is the guard?"

Dong Jin looked up at Xia Houchun, and after a flash of his eyes, he replied: "The prisoner Wei Boyu committed suicide in fear of crime."

With a buzzing sound, Xia Houchun's body flickered, and then he said in a hateful voice: "Good method, good method!"

Immediately, he flung his sleeves and walked away. Behind him, Liu Wenzhen and Dong Jin looked at each other quietly, Erer moved away indifferently, and Lin Hua obediently followed behind.

Out of the alley, Xia Houchun staggered, and the darkness struck, and he collapsed to the ground amid Liu Wenzhen and Lin Hua's exclamation.

"Your Highness!!"

During the heavy patrolling of the Forbidden Palace, the Eastern Palace seemed to be facing a formidable enemy, and the Yeting was completely silent.

Only the Tai Chi Hall was noisy.

Now that Emperor Jing is away, the government affairs fall on several prime ministers.

Since Xia Houchun fell into a coma, the court officials became more irritable.

The imperial party and the Xiao party continued to attack, and the Xiao party accused the prince of leaving the palace without authorization, disregarding the foundation of the empire, and being unable to bear the heavy responsibility.

The imperial party angrily ordered Xiao Xiao to assassinate the crown prince, and detained him for the crime of "disturbing the safety of the Yasukuni".

The two sides argued for half a day, but Concubine Xiao Gui, who was behind the curtain and listening to the government, kindly said, "The crown prince is still young, so he can forgive his stubbornness" and stopped fighting.

But the dispute was settled, and the government and the public knew it. At the same time, the words of "the prince can't bear the heavy responsibility" made a lot of noise in the whole Taikang, and the noise grew day by day.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the prince Xia Houchun feared that he would not be able to fulfill his heavy trust and became the consensus of the ruling and opposition parties.

Immediately afterwards, it was reported that the prison of the Criminal Ministry was robbed, and the former East Palace eunuch Zhang Cheng'en was murdered and silenced.

Yang Zhong, the prince's concubine, disappeared out of thin air, and even Wei Boyu, who offended the prince, "suicide in fear of crime"!
Undoubtedly, the words of "the prince's evil heart is not dead" that had been silenced once again lingered in the ears of the people of Taikang.

In any case, with this dark history first, and then being involved in the confusing "Wei Boyu suicide case", Xia Houchun's reputation finally fell to the lowest point.

But at this moment, Langzhang Wanyu, the seal of the Ministry of War, Liu Mu, the minister of Taichang Temple, and Zhou Wenpu, the commander of Lantai, joined forces with Chao Yilang and Chigu Ling Diaowei to "indiscriminately kill civilians and privately seduce good families." 'For the crime, it is proposed to abolish the position of Prince Xia Houchun.

And the "rebellion case", "the murder of the guard" and "fornication with a woman of the mother's family" and other crimes were drawn in, shaking the government and the public, and the people were in an unstoppable uproar.

In the East Palace, the atmosphere was oppressive and stagnant, the maids and guards exchanged glances, and the sound of coughing in the sleeping hall was intermittent, as if they were dying soon.

Liu Wenzhen prostrated herself on the ground, lowered her head and said in a low voice: "Then the imperial concubine punished His Highness with a three-month confinement on the grounds that 'the crown prince disregarded the state's order and went out of the ban privately, which disturbed the people'.

Xia Houchun sat cross-legged on the couch, closed his eyes and said in a low voice, "Continue talking".

Liu Wenzhen couldn't bear it, and reminded subconsciously: "Why didn't your Highness invite Master Zhang and Chen Xiang to help you, and let them slander you instead of being splashed for no reason?

The so-called mouths make gold, accumulate and destroy bones, if His Highness allows them to be reckless, the consequences may be unimaginable. "

Temporarily stopping breath adjustment, Xia Houchun opened his eyes, glanced at Liu Wenzhen, and after a moment of silence, he said slowly, "What did Prime Minister Zhang say?"

After recalling for a while, Liu Wenzhen shook her head and said, "Mr. Zhang never said a word from the beginning to the end."

Xia Houchun hummed lightly, seeing that Liu Wenzhen hadn't left, raised his eyebrows slightly: "What else?"

Liu Wenzhen hesitated for a moment, then said with tingling scalp, "Da Zongzheng, handed in his resignation letter this morning."

There was a dead silence in the hall.

Dazong Zheng Xiahou Lian represented the interests of the entire Xiahou family.

This resignation not only means that the Xiahou family has lost absolute control over the government, but also means that the Xiahou family's state is in danger.

Xia Houchun was silent.

Xuanzong's counterattack finally came.

It's just a pity for Wei Boyu.

He raised his eyes slightly, his gaze was deep and deep.

But, is Emperor Jing really unprepared?

Also, he, Xia Houchun, is not dead yet!
