Phoenix that can't smile

Chapter 739 Luoyi Spring and Autumn
Emperor Shuijian of the Great Zhou Dynasty drove from the Hall of Shuilong Shuren, and personally greeted the Empress Dowager Baosi’s Fengluan. This was the most solemn ceremony since the Great Zhou moved eastward. Arranged, suddenly facing the wat like a forest.

With the support of Mingyue and Huiyue, Baosi lightly stepped down from Fengluan. Zhou Junshuijian, dressed in a dragon robe, wearing a glazed crown with twelve colored glazed beads covering his face, came respectfully and solemnly to Baosi's house. In front of him, kneel down three times and kowtow nine times.

"My Majesty, please get up, you are the Son of Heaven of the Great Zhou Dynasty, so you don't have to be so wronged!" Bao Si said with a sweet smile, her brows were like spring mountains.

Baosi's dignity and grace made all the ministers and nobles present praise him again and again.

"From now on, I will change the reign name of the Great Zhou Dynasty to Wenhe! Let the horse go to Nanshan, and the internal affairs will be prosperous!" Shuijian Longyan Dayue announced the decree loudly in public.

Bao Si finally returned to the palace. The former Emperor Ping Wang proposed the Queen Mother's will to go to Lishan to clean up. , even Ming Chao, who managed the logistics in Luoyang, got the high position of the prince and grand master. confusion.

"I decree to kill Baoen!" Shui Jian decided to kill Baoen on the spot according to the officials' report. Rumors are spreading everywhere, many princes think that Bao En is the emperor appointed by the late emperor, now killing Bao En will not cause misunderstanding in the south, right?"

After hearing Hua Gu's reasons, Shui Jian couldn't help laughing and said: "Xue Ju is spreading rumors everywhere, but I can't just make mistakes. Why keep this Baoen, kill!"

One day later, Bao En was ordered by Shui Jian to cut him into pieces.

The news spread to the south, and Xue Ju, who was in exile in the state of Chu, took the opportunity to spread rumors everywhere, saying that Jin Wang Shuijian was usurping the throne and Pingwang, inciting the princes from all over the country to continue to form an alliance to counterattack Luoyang.

"Is it tolerable or unbearable! Cheng Rong, this Xue Ju is against me everywhere, and now he is taking advantage of me to kill the rebels to slander me for usurping the throne. Do you think I should quickly raise troops to destroy Chu?" Jian was furious at Cheng Rong.

"Your Majesty, Xue Ju is just cunning and insidious, and is good at rebellion. We might as well make the mistake and make Baoen the crown prince. Wouldn't this calm down the anger in the south?" Cheng Rong stroked his beard happily and said.

"Didn't Baoen be killed?" Shui Jian stared at Cheng Rong in amazement.

"The emperor has a son named Hui Wu, who is only six years old this year. Why not change his name to Bao En, revive his body, and make him the crown prince. Then what excuse do the southern princes have for provoking troops?" Cheng Ronghui said with unique eyes.

"Hahaha, Aiqing is really resourceful and decisive, okay, let's do it like this!" Shui Jian suddenly overjoyed.

Shuilong Shurendian, after hearing the will read by Shuijian, King Yu, Qihou, Weihou and others immediately reacted strongly, and raised their wats to object: "Your Majesty, you made your own son the crown prince, but you treated the former emperor Pingwang's son with disdain." Son, this will definitely be ridiculed by the world."

"Qihou, what do you mean? My eldest son is six years old this year, while Rongcheng, the late emperor's son, is only three years old. In order to inherit the foundation of the Great Zhou, I only have to be Lichang!" Shui Jian said with a look of good reason.

"Your majesty is wise, if someone is worried that the emperor's decree will not be able to obey the people of the world, then please ask the emperor to issue an order. After the crown prince, the emperor's son Rong Cheng will be appointed as the king. Wouldn't people be stable?" Cheng Rong pointed out with sharp eyes.

On the same day, Dan Chi, who stepped down from the Hall of Shuilong Shuren, sullenly caught up with Cheng Rong, who was full of spring, and asked very strangely: "Brother Cheng, wouldn't it be a pity to make the current emperor's son the crown prince?" Prince Ping? Besides, Prince Ping’s son Rong Cheng is Ah Xi’s own flesh and blood, so how can we see Queen Ping in the future?”

Cheng Rong looked around and saw that no one was watching, so he immediately pulled Que Tu behind the big pillar, leaned into Que Tu's ear and said, "Que Tu, the reason why I raised this matter first is to save Rong Cheng's life, you want , the current emperor is not a magnanimous person, if he appoints his own son as the crown prince, he will definitely do harm to the former emperor's prince in the future, now we are the first to force the emperor to make a covenant, and we will not be afraid that the emperor will not let go in the future!"

"Brother Cheng, you are really far-sighted!" Qu Tu Ton suddenly realized, and smiled happily, clapping his hands in praise.

"Ju Tu, don't talk about the first prince, even you and I should leave the court as soon as possible. As the saying goes, if the world is settled, the emperor will suspect that we have an attempt to rebel, and take the opportunity to kill us all!" Cheng Rong persuaded very sadly.

"Brother Cheng, I've already understood what you mean. After I finish arranging some things at home, I will return home with you immediately!" Ju Tu stared at Cheng Rong with bony eyes.

In Jianjia Palace, Bao Si was immersed in the warmth of the past in the bamboo shadows. Suddenly Huier stepped forward and leaned forward, reporting to Empress Ping Axi to come to visit.

Bao Si couldn't help showing a knowing smile, and after a while, Axi entered the room completely naked, looking at Bao Si with tears in her eyes.

"Axi, the world is so changeable and life is so difficult. I didn't expect that the late emperor left so soon, leaving behind you orphans and widows. It's really hard for you now!" Bao Si's vermilion lips pursed into a smile with a hint of sadness.

"My lord, Axi should call you that. For so many years, we have experienced countless joys and sorrows in this Jianjia Palace, Lishan, and Shuilongguan. Finally, we can quietly watch the green smoke and full moon. Should we be obsessed with wealth and splendor? Now that Ah Xi can live safely in the Kunning Palace with his Cheng'er, it is already a perfect life!" Ah Xi's hibiscus noodles revealed a slight delicacy.

"That's right, if Jug Tu can silently guard us by our side like before, it will be back to the old days!" Bao Si immediately curved her eyebrows like a moon in a cage.

"Your Majesty, Xue Ju from the south has come to negotiate peace!" At this moment, Mingyue hurriedly stepped forward and bowed.

"Mingyue, what is that Xue Ju doing with us?" Axi said with some contempt.

"You two empresses, because Xue Ju put forward a very excessive condition, that is, to ask the emperor to send the empresses as hostages by name, saying that he wants to appease the anger of the people in the world!" Mingyue said very indignantly.

"Joke, why do people in the world calm down their anger? Our Empress Dowager of the Great Zhou Dynasty is the world of Fengyi, and they even dare to offend the Empress Dowager, tell the emperor, absolutely not!" Ah Xi was so angry that he almost went crazy.

"Okay, Axi, don't make trouble, you are also a mother now, why are you jumping up and down like before, let's go to the emperor!" Bao Si couldn't help covering her mouth and smiling leisurely.

In the study room of Huangji Palace, Shui Jian was summoning the senior doctor Hua Gu and Yu Wang to discuss the answer to Xue Ju, when suddenly the eunuch Kou Ru came forward and reported: "The Empress Dowager is here."

Shui Jian's face was shocked, and he hurried out of the palace with the officials to greet him.

"Your Majesty, don't be too polite, I heard that Xue Ju sent people to the capital to spread rumors and insults, right?" Bao Si happily helped Shui Jiandao.

"Queen Dowager, this Xue Ju is really confusing right and wrong. He dared to attack the Queen Mother's demon girl. It is really unreasonable. I will immediately send Dug Tu and Cheng Rong!"
