Jinghong Building

Chapter 65 Under the Ginkgo Tree

The reason why King Jin retreated was that he was injured.

The King of Jin was attacked on the way to Pingshanwei. Four assassins escaped, and the other two committed suicide on the spot.

"The assassin was masked, the two who escaped were ignorant of their gender, but they all committed suicide!"

Xiaoli's face was full of excitement.

He Ran and Li Jinxiu exchanged gazes. Both of them thought of the same thing, that is, the cases over the years were all female assassins, and even the original owner who pretended to assassinate the King of Jin as the assassination of the Princess of Jin, was also a female assassin. .

Li Jinxiu cursed: "She should know this **** Zuo Xiaoai now. I am so brave. Without the orders of the boss, I dare not send anyone to assassinate the King of Jin!"

It was because she had been an assassin that Zuo Xiaoai suspected that she was the commander behind these female assassins and even let the fine work go to the Marquis of Wu'an. If it weren't for crawling out of the same trench, Li Jinxiu would have been able to kill him to the end. , and Zuo Xiaoai was removed from the big block.

He Ran asked Xiaoli: "Where did this news come from?"

It was definitely not the news sent by the pigeon. She must be the first to know about the news. Only when she was lazy would she let Xiaoli read it to her.

"The battle report, the 800-mile-accelerated battle report, the one who sent the battle report shouted into the city, I'm afraid everyone in the capital will know it." Xiaoli heard from the guest downstairs.

Li Jinxiu thought of the words He Ran said, "The third and fourth brothers are not Zhou Chi's flesh and blood." But He Ran didn't say anything again, and only said half of them, as if there were ten thousand little claws tickling, and the more they were scratching. The more itchy itchy itched.

But Li Jinxiu was frustrated and now she heard the news about King Jin and sneered.

He Ran said to Li Jinxiu, "Don't be excited for now. Let me ask you, what would you do if you lead the army and suddenly encounter an attack and you are seriously injured?"

Li Jinxiu was stunned: "The most urgent task is to suppress my injury first to avoid shaking the morale of the army. Ah? Is this fake?"

He Ran raised his eyebrows: "I don't know if it's fake, I don't believe it anyway."

He Ran didn't believe it, but the emperor believed it.

He was overjoyed, and even God was helping me!

Therefore, I am the true emperor and the darling of God!

"I take this opportunity to send an envoy to negotiate. What do you think is good?"

Several cabinet masters looked at each other, weren’t you taking your life while you were sick? How did you think of the enemy retreating and you chased after you to talk?

Guo Shou took a step forward: "Your Majesty, we have a large army in front and reinforcements behind. Although the King of Jin came in a fierce manner, he was struggling. It was reported that he was seriously injured. In the foolish opinion of the minister, whether this news is true or not To be verified.”

The emperor was stunned: "Isn't this the news sent back from the front? Besides, the Jin army has indeed retreated."

Guo Shoufu continued, "The news sent back from the front is true, and the Jin army retreats, but who can say that this is not fake news released by the King of Jin? Besides, withdrawing the troops may be just his strategy to lure the enemy. .”

The emperor returned to the harem in disappointment. The little **** came to communicate with him. The Empress Dowager asked him to go to Cining Palace as soon as possible.

The emperor had to go to Cining Palace. The Empress Dowager looked unhappy: "You actually believed in the traitor's plan. Do you actually want to send someone to negotiate? You are becoming more and more stupid!"

When the emperor heard the word "stupid", he felt that the five thunderstorm was thundering. The Empress Dowager had a disgust towards him before, but now he was just talking about him being stupid.

He is the emperor!

He is the lord of the world!

The emperor didn't know how he walked out of Cining Palace, so he didn't go back to the bedroom, but walked to the Imperial Garden.

The little **** Yuan Xiaochun is the godson of the **** Yuanying, and now he follows the emperor in and out. When the emperor saw Yuan Xiaochun following behind him, he waved: "Come here."

Yuan Xiaochun walked carefully to the emperor with a small step. The emperor asked, "Can you swim in the water?"

Yuan Xiaochun smiled and said, "I don't know."

The emperor pointed to Jinbo Lake in front of him and said, "Jump down!"

Yuan Xiaochun was stunned, clenched his fists, took a deep breath, ran a few steps, and jumped down with a thud.

The emperor stood on the shore, looking at Yuan Xiaochun struggling in the water, laughing loudly, bent down with a smile.

Yuanying rushed over after hearing the news, and saw a group of eunuchs standing by the lake. The emperor was still smiling. Seeing that Yuan Xiaochun had no strength to struggle, Yuanying was so anxious that she stamped her feet and shouted at the eunuchs: "You are still standing there and doing something, why don't you save people quickly?"

The eunuchs looked at the emperor who was still laughing, and then looked at Yuanying. Someone went to get the bamboo pole and some tried to jump down. After a while, Yuan Xiaochun was rescued and was already dead.

Looking at the eunuchs who were still slapping Yuan Xiaochun's body, the emperor suddenly felt very bored. The group of dog slaves in front of him were boring, and the old men in the court who could be his grandfather were boring, and the emperor did nothing.

He said, there were ten sentences waiting for him to return to the harem, and the reprimand of the Empress Dowager.

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

He had already taken power, but this in charge of power is like a joke. He could not issue orders in the court. How could this be the one who was in charge of power?

What else can he do besides letting the **** jump into the lake?

The emperor did not allow the eunuchs to follow him. He walked alone towards a corner of the palace, which was his former residence. After his mother passed away, he lived here alone.

The emperor knocked on the door, and an old **** opened the gate of the courtyard and saw the emperor, he hurriedly knelt on the ground.

The emperor raised his leg and came in. He hadn't been here for three years. This place was dilapidated, and the flowers and plants in the yard were wilted and energyless.

The emperor walked to the ginkgo tree on the west side of the yard, and he squatted down and said softly, "Sister Chen, I'm sorry."

It turns out that being an emperor is so boring. It turns out that being an emperor cannot make him happy. If he had known this, he would not have told the emperor grandmother about Sister Chen's pregnancy.

In this way, Sister Chen can still chat with him and tell him about the things outside the palace like before.

Sister Chen was only fifteen years old when she entered the palace. At that time, her mother had long been unpopular and was in poor health.

Sister Chen’s handkerchief is the daughter of her mother’s cousin. Because of this relationship, Sister Chen has visited her mother several times.

After his mother's death, he became a helpless prince and was in a difficult situation. Sister Chen often came to visit him and even scolded the palace servants who were lazy.

Sister Chen said she has a younger brother who is the same age as him.

The emperor's brother was only a few more than ten days from being infected with the disease to his death. Before that, the emperor's brother was healthy and energetic.

Just before the emperor's brother got sick, Sister Chen came to see him once. After saying a few words, Sister Chen rushed out of the house and squatted under the ginkgo tree and vomited. He asked Sister Chen if she was sick. Sister Chen's face was Honghong, but tears in her eyes: "Your Highness, what should I do? What should I do?"

Later he told the Queen Mother about this

The emperor squatted under the tree for a long time, and when he stood up, his legs were all numb.

The old **** wanted to come and help him, but he refused and walked out of the palace with difficulty. He would not come again here in the future.

The old **** looked at his back and shook his head slowly. He walked under the ginkgo tree, dug out the soil there, and dug out a porcelain pillow. He shook it, and a crisp collision sound came from the porcelain pillow. He stretched out his hand Go and take out a little rabbit carved from white jade. The rabbit has a lute. The lute is old and the original color can no longer be seen.
