In 372, when the emperor abdicated due to serious illness, crown prince Dongling Ruisheng officially succeeded to the throne as the new emperor and ascended the throne on another day.

Because he succeeded to the throne, the new emperor's palace is still in the East Palace, but in terms of identity, he is undoubtedly the emperor. His words and deeds represent the majesty of the royal family.

However, at this time, the new emperor pulled the snow-white sleeves of Jingrui in Dongling like a child, with an eager look on his face.

"Your Majesty has just succeeded to the throne. There should be many things to deal with, and Jingrui left first." Dongling Jingrui reluctantly looked at his tightly held sleeve and tried to persuade him.

"But... You haven't told me where you've been and what you've done these days? Why are you here and will you come back in the future?" it's obvious that the new level little emperor doesn't have a sense of security. In such a big palace, he doesn't know who he should trust or who he shouldn't trust. Now he is the only one he can rely on, Perhaps this is the second brother who has watched himself grow up and has the best relationship with himself since childhood.

"Don't worry, your majesty. Since Jingrui has chosen to come back at this time, he won't leave his majesty alone." Dongling Jingrui raised his hand and touched his head. Looking at his younger brother, who is a head shorter than himself, his eyes are full of pity.

"Is that true?!" hearing that he would not leave, Dongling Ruisheng's eyes suddenly showed a light of hope.

Dongling Jingrui nodded gently, comforted him a few words, and asked to resign again.

At this time, the eunuch on one side came up and warned, "Your Majesty, you still have a lot of things to deal with. You'd better let King Jing go back first. There will be plenty of time to talk about the past in the future“

Dongling Ruisheng opened his mouth and wanted to say more, but he closed his mouth reluctantly and left.

A snow-white robe meandered slowly across the ground. A pair of sincere eyes looked at his back, walked over the threshold, turned and disappeared.

No one saw that the fingers clenched in the snow-white sleeved robe were already pale and blue.

The white figure stumbled slightly.

A dark shadow flashed quickly and held the staggering figure Haosheng.

"Cough..." a trace of blood foam oozed from the corners of the lips. His face was pale and distressed.

"Master... You'd better have a rest these days. There's nothing particularly important..." a voice advised with a little concern. Looking at his master's miserable situation, I felt distressed, but some were worthless for him.

However, he didn't pay attention to it, but slowed down a little. He wiped the blood stains on his lips with a handkerchief and asked softly, "Brocade book, what's wrong with her now?"

"The prince of Xiling had been in charge of her for a long time. Now she moved into Murong residence as a servant girl and kept a very low profile. Although major general Murong was very cold, he should be able to take good care of her for the sake of saving her life... Although the girl's internal injury was serious, the prince of Xiling used a lot of good herbs for her. Now half a month has passed. Although the injury has not completely healed, it has been cured It's all right. Then you just need to have a good rest and recover as before. "Brocade book said calmly.

"Yes." it seems that the tone eased after hearing that the injury was better.

"Master, I don't know if I should say something..." Jin Shu changed his voice again, and his voice hesitated. It seemed that I didn't know whether I should say something.

"Say."

"Although major general Murong is a trustworthy person, after all, men and women are different. The master really can rest assured that she... Lives under the eaves with major general Murong?" Jin Shu spoke from the perspective of an ordinary man. He thought his words were superfluous. However, before his voice fell, he felt that the air around him suddenly cooled.

"This......" Brocade book took a deep breath, raised his head, saw a face as iron, and immediately shuddered, "do you want my subordinates to arrange more people to look after..."

"No need!" someone said gnashing his teeth, his face turning blue.

"Oh..." Jin Shu promised. He couldn't make up his mind for a moment and was ready to step down.

"Wait a minute." he shouted at him with a black face and clenched his sleeves tightly with his fingers. He clenched his teeth and told her, "go to inform Fengyi and let her protect in the dark. Don't let her know. If Murong Yu dares to take any action, don't worry about his identity and beat him!"

There was a sudden sour smell in the air.

The brocade Book wiped his sweat and said cautiously, "well, do you want your subordinates to let her know that the master is still alive, so as not to misunderstand her."

"No!" his anger lingered.

"Yes..." Jin Shu hesitated a little. He didn't understand why the master wanted to hide the news that she was still alive, but he didn't dare to ask too much.

"Send some herbs to Murong Yu tomorrow. Don't reveal your identity." the topic paused. He bowed his head to tidy up his slightly wrinkled sleeves and continued to take pains to tell him.

"Yes."

"If there's anything wrong with her, report it first and don't delay. Do you know? Cough... Rong Chuqing is hurt. She shouldn't embarrass her recently. Murong mansion is free, and she can live a clean life for a few days..." he talked a lot. He turned quietly and walked slowly towards the former Emperor's bedroom.

There was still an empty silence in the former Emperor's bedroom.

The former Emperor lay on the bed with godless eyes. His eyes seemed to have begun to wander, and there was only sporadic light in his eyes.

"Da Da --"

A burst of footsteps came from far and near, bringing a cool breath.

The first emperor closed his eyes and forced himself to take a breath. When he heard the footsteps, the familiar breath, he could guess who was coming almost without opening his eyes.

Soon, the footsteps stopped beside him.

"Fourth brother... You finally came..." the emperor slowly opened his eyes and said with difficulty.

"It seems that brother Huang is still sober. He should know what's the matter with his younger brother coming today." the visitor stood by the bed and looked down at him. He was a frustrated old man with peaceful eyes and no emotion, just like the person lying in bed was just a stranger to him.

The first emperor knew that it was useless to say anything now, and also knew what his purpose was to come here today, so he didn't hesitate and said directly: "you came to ask the whereabouts of tiger fu..."

After a pause, no one answered him, so he could only continue, "there is one in Murong's hand... And the other is no longer in my hand... I will never trust anyone, including myself..."

The white shadow moved slightly, but never spoke, as if he had realized something.

"Hehe... You can't think of it..." the emperor suddenly hehe smiled. There was a lot of bitterness in his smile, which sounded particularly sad. "Before you, he... Had been here."

"He?" as soon as the hesitant voice fell, he was suddenly surprised. It seemed that he thought of something, and his face suddenly changed.

"I'm so old that I never thought... He has been dormant in the imperial palace for so many years... Cough... But he wants revenge, not just me..." the eyes of the former Emperor are full of bitterness and guilt. Old things appear in his mind, and those bloody things can't get to the purpose.

Finally, he said in a hoarse voice, "fourth brother, up to now, I have only one thing to ask you... You must promise me... Keep the last blood of Dongling royal family, keep sheng'er, and keep him..."

"OK." he couldn't stand by and think about Dongling Ruisheng, so he responded decisively.

"I gave the crown prince an iron cavalry Army... Cough... That's the last force I secretly cultivated... I gave him to you... Although it can't be directly used against Lian family, it can also make sheng'er easier. Up to now, I just hope he can be a bright King and stabilize the government..." the voice of the former Emperor became weaker and weaker, The divine color in his eyes gradually faded away.

No one paid any attention to him. The surroundings were quiet and terrible. He forcibly opened his eyes. There was no focal length or divine color in his eyes. His lips moved and his mouth murmured. In the end, only two words could be heard: "Su Su Su... Su Su Su..."

Blood gushed out of his mouth, and the murmur finally stopped in his throat.

Wearing white clothes, he walked out of the hall calmly and calmly. His straight back was heartless, and there was a trace of sadness

…………

In 372, the former emperor died at the age of 56.

On April 16 of the same year, crown prince Ruisheng of Dongling ascended the throne as the new emperor, becoming the youngest emperor in the history of Dongling state.

Yang Zhengde, the Minister of rites, was canonized as the new emperor's teacher to assist the new emperor in taking charge of the government.

Jingrui, the original king of Dongling, is the only prince of Dongling, and is deeply trusted by his majesty.

When the new emperor first ascended the throne, the first thing he did was to straighten out the imperial platform, but the only thing he dared not move was the power of Lian family.

Rui Sheng of Dongling knows that no matter who is the emperor now, he can't take Lian's family. Lian's family has been in the court for so many years, and its forces are intertwined, like a towering tree, which has long been deeply rooted. In addition, the Li family and the Su family, who are also Chaozhong aristocratic family, are naturally not easy for him to move. In the past, although the undercurrent surged, the three families have always been able to check and balance each other, but now, with the death of the former Emperor, the balanced relationship was suddenly broken. Now it can be clearly seen that the power of the Lian family is expanding, while the Su family and the Li family have no way to go further. The Lian family is ambitious. If he wants to sit on the throne, he must try his best to suppress the Lian family, but now he doesn't have this strength.

However, the appearance of Dongling Jingrui can be said to give Dongling Ruisheng a glimmer of hope. As long as Dongling Jingrui is willing to help him, there will be a way. After all, the wisdom of Jingrui of Dongling was obvious to all. It can be said that he was the most resourceful of all the princes, and also had the closest relationship with Ruisheng of Dongling.

The little emperor was excited, but he didn't know. Waiting for his more severe situation, he was not an ambitious Lianjia

What is really terrible is never the enemy in the open, but the poisonous snake hidden in the dark. After all, no one knows when the hidden poisonous snake will attack.
