Beautiful and miserable be aesthetics

Chapter 101

The news that Emperor Jing Cheng was seriously ill quickly spread.

He did not go to court for three days, but all the imperial physicians who entered and exited the emperor's palace had serious expressions on their faces.For a while, the palace was silent, and the officials in the court were panic-stricken. They had a premonition that a storm was coming, but the prince's party was quiet.

The eldest prince's biological mother, Concubine Shu, summoned the eldest prince into the palace to discuss matters secretly in the name of illness.

"My son, this is a wonderful opportunity."

Concubine Shu has always shown that she does not fight or grab, but this does not mean that she really does not have the slightest ambition.Emperor Jing Cheng seldom entered the harem, she and the imperial concubine were no different from widows, like the queens who succeeded her later, and some women who were called into the palace according to the ancestral rules.

The relationship between husband and wife with the emperor has long since disappeared in his daily remembrance of the unnamed Empress Wen Rui who came from the people.

She is in the deep palace, her only hope is her son.

The eldest prince frowned and said: "There is no movement from the third brother, and the southern tour..."

Concubine Shu patted the eldest prince's hand, "The third prince is cautious, but also timid. His concubine mother is like that. Today's queen is not the prince's biological mother. No matter who of you finally takes that seat, she is the queen mother." Empress Dowager, she will not help you, nor will she interfere, does the emperor understand?"

The queen is also a woman. While guarding the widow, she is raising the son of his beloved wife for her husband. Even though she is respected, how can she not complain in her heart.

Because of his status, he was forced to be virtuous.

"Uncle has indeed made an agreement with his son, but the son always feels that it is risky. Besides, the team on the southern tour may have received the news that the father is seriously ill at this time, and they are rushing back. If..."

"Then don't let them come back."

Concubine Shu chuckled, "The regent and the crown prince have a lot of quarrels, and the surname of Dasheng Dynasty should be, and it is impossible for Lian Shenwei to ascend the throne by himself. It is just to choose one of you to continue to support and keep his power position. Not urgent."

The eldest prince squinted his eyes: "Mother and concubine is right. My son is the eldest son. If something happens to my son, I will be a head taller than my third brother."

The most eye-catching thing now is Ying Jingjue, the legitimate prince of the East Palace.

Moreover, just after he came back from the southern tour, his status was different from before. Ying Jingjue had established an orthodox status in the hearts of the common people, and robbing him for the throne would be plotting to rebel against the party.

But what if he doesn't come back.

In the capital city at this time, even the slightest disturbance will be noticed by interested people.

The Palace of the Three Princes.

The counselor lowered his head and smiled, "The eldest prince can't hold his breath anymore."

"idiot."

The third prince sneered, "But it's just right."

The situation in the capital is unclear, and the Prince Regent followed him on his southern tour, and now he has not expressed his position at all.The two of the Zhongyi Hou's are still alive, Li Ningfeng doesn't know what to do, even if the soldier amulet is temporarily taken away, the influence of his father and son in the frontier cannot be underestimated.

At this time, Dongying Jingjue really thinks that everyone is dead.

The emperor's father is seriously ill, and he is not dead. Who can guarantee that he has no backup to prepare early.

To seek wealth and honor in danger, one must also see if there is life.

"Brother, I'm afraid it won't work this time."

The third prince sighed and threw away the chess in his hand.

As expected in the capital, Ying Jingjue ordered the fleet to rush back to the capital after receiving the news that Emperor Jing Cheng was seriously ill.

Although he knew it was inappropriate, Mingzhu was still relieved.

The pills Feng Ke gave the master can last for a month. If you rush back at the speed you came, you will not be able to make it in time anyway. However, the master doesn't seem to care very much, so she can't keep mentioning it.

Lian Shenwei: "Is the prince still not in the mood to eat recently?"

Mingzhu: "Yes, I heard from the servants around the prince that he only had one meal today."

"The emperor is seriously ill, he can't serve the sick in front of him, probably because he can't eat and can't sleep." Lian Shenwei said lightly.

Mingzhu didn't dare to say anything, she always felt that the master's voice had a subtle coldness and sarcasm.

Lian Shen slightly closed his eyes and was silent for a moment.

Jing never knew what happened back then. In recent years, although the emperor was lukewarm and turned a blind eye to sister's son, he didn't have any responsibilities as a father, and he was also a little afraid of meeting and hurting.

But in private, they are all paving the way for Jing Jue.

After all, they are father and son.

Lian Shenwei looked at the snacks that had just been prepared and presented on her desk, "You..."

He paused.

"never mind."

Even if it is sent over, according to the current relationship between him and Ying Jingjue, that kid must not be able to eat.

"How long will it take to get to the capital?"

"Half moon."

Mingqin remembered clearly that it was almost the last few days of the one-month period of the master's medicine.

Lian Shen nodded slightly.

Tian Nan was watching for him in the capital, Ying Jingjue was still fledgling, so the news he received was naturally not as well-informed as him.Emperor Jing Cheng's sudden serious illness may attract many thoughtful people.

The way back to the palace this time will never be peaceful.

Just don't know who will do it first.

"Send a message to Tiannan to let him prepare early."

"Yes."

After a while, Lian Shenwei raised his head in doubt: "Still leaving?"

Mingqin said silently: "Master cares about the prince, you should also pay attention to your own body." The master's face was always pale, she was in the frontier before, secretly protecting Li Ningfeng for three years, and when she came back, she found Tiannan His mouth is broken a lot, and he loves to chatter in front of his master.

At first, I thought that Tian Nan had lost her sense of proportion, but now that she has been alone with her master for only two or three months, she couldn't help but start to worry.

Lian Shen smiled, picked up a piece of snack and motioned to her, "Understood, let's go down."

Ming Zhu poured him a glass of water before going down.

Lian Shenwei ate that piece of snack slowly with the water, the food in the fleet was very good, his daily meals included a lot of nourishing food and fresh fish.

He is much better than the few days when he just woke up. Except for the medicine, he is taking three meals a day on time, and what supplements he takes, but he has no appetite, and he just forces himself to swallow it, taking it as a Task, very boring.

After returning to Beijing, it will take some time before Li Ningfeng's treatment ends. If he still wants to have blood to drain, his body must be replenished as soon as possible.

There was an itchy feeling in the lung cavity, Lian Shen frowned slightly, took out a black handkerchief and pressed it to his lips, coughed a few times, the familiar smell of blood filled his throat.

The veil was soaked in sporadic spots.

Every time he coughed up very little blood, although he didn't feel it, it was a bit troublesome all the time. There was no credible doctor on the fleet, and his physical condition was discovered by outsiders, which was another disturbance.

In the eyes of others, the regent of the Dasheng Dynasty is a healthy ordinary person who occasionally gets sick.

What's more, with the current situation in the capital, before Jing Jue takes power, he can't show any weakness.

Lian Shen lowered his eyes slightly, pinched the black handkerchief and twisted it a few times, the blood on it disappeared.

end of june.

The fleet of the Southern Tour slowly docked at the Linfen Bank.

Originally, the landing point was at the starting point, but Emperor Jing Cheng was seriously ill, and all matters were handled by the ministers of the court, with the assistance of the First Prince and the Third Prince.

This is the outer city that enters the capital, and there are mountains and forests outside the city. The gates of the city have always been heavily guarded, because the news of the prince's arrival has been received long ago, and the gates of the city were already opened when the fleet was seen from a distance.

After staying on the boat for a long time, Lian Shenwei got used to it when he went ashore for a while, and then glanced at Ying Jingjue, who was much haggard, and said: "This place is still not a short distance from the imperial palace. Even if your highness is impatient, you have to wait for the fleet The guards on board lined up neatly before setting off."

"This palace knows."

Ying Jingjue pursed her lips tightly, her eyes were black and blue, obviously she didn't sleep well during this time.

Xiao Zhizi quickly came over and quickly said: "Your Highness, everything is ready."

Ying Jing decided to nod, and quickly led the people towards Linfen City.

The gate of the city was wide open, and Lord Wei Ming Dawei, who was newly transferred here to guard the city, hurried out to greet him, "His Royal Highness is well, and the Regent is well. The horses have been prepared. I wonder if we should go to the imperial city now?"

Ying Jing decided: "My lord, please lead the way."

Wei Mingda: "Yes."

Lian Shenwei: "Master Wei is a new transfer?"

Wei Mingda hurriedly said: "Yes, I have been appreciated, and I just took office a few days ago."

There was a moat in front of the city gate. They walked in front of the city gate. The ground was extremely clean, without soil or even a leaf.

What was freshly stained was the mud trampled on the shore under the feet of their group who just got off the boat.

Midsummer is approaching, the weather is gradually getting hotter, and there is not even a breath of wind at this time.

Lian Shen glanced at Mingzhu slightly.

Mingzhu silently nodded, turned his footsteps, and slowly approached Ying Jingjue for a few minutes, blocking behind him without a trace.

A group of people quickly entered the city, and the city gate was closed heavily.

There was no one on the main road of the city gate, as if to welcome them, Wei Mingda was still talking with Ying Jingjue every sentence.

Ying Jingjue was obviously absent-minded: "Where is the horse?"

Wei Mingda: "Hurry up."

When walking to the center of the city, the surroundings became even quieter, and Han Zhanzhan's arrows poked out from high places on both sides.

Lian Shenwei's expression remained unchanged, his right hand had touched the finger of his left hand, and turned it gently.

In the next second, masked people dressed in rough clothes swarmed down from both sides of the high wall, and hundreds of arrows were released.

An arrow with a tricky angle shot at Ying Jingjue's gate very viciously.

Lian Shen gave him a slight push in the dark to make him dodge, then narrowed his eyes, and with a movement of his finger, the metal wrench shot out a poisonous needle, which precisely pierced the assassin's brow.

The assassin didn't have time to react, so he let out a short uh, fell down, and his brain burst.

Wei Mingda trembled in fright: "There are assassins! Hurry up! Come!"

However, the guards in the city were nowhere to be found, only more and more bandits came to kill with machetes in their hands. At a glance, none of these people were ordinary warriors below the Yinyuan realm, and they rushed straight to the middle Ying Jing decided to leave, like a desperate gambler, very difficult to deal with.

"Protect His Royal Highness!"

Xiao Zhizi screamed, and the guards shouted to kill the sky.While Mingzhu looked closely at his master, he also paid attention to Ying Jingjue's situation.

The arrow shot almost slashed past his shoulder, Ying Jingjue was only shocked for a few breaths, then lowered his face, and sneered: "I don't know which good brother of this palace, give this palace a share Big surprise."

He drew out a knife from the guard, but he was not timid, and his tone was cold.

"This palace killed you."

The surrounding air was too turbid, the sun was in the sky, dust was flying, Lian Shenwei was a little out of breath, he put his hand on his shoulder, and said: "Your Highness, don't be impulsive."

Ying Jing decided to look back at him: "I..."

His eyes froze suddenly, and almost subconsciously pulled Lian Shenwei towards him, and the arrow grazed the back of Ying Jingjue's hand fiercely.

He hissed, and hurriedly let go of his hand, the back of his hand was dripping with blood.

Lian Shenwei's face turned cold on the spot, and he took out a handkerchief to cover the back of Ying Jingjue's hand.

Mingzhu broke out in a cold sweat. If the arrow she hadn't noticed just now had been shot at the master, it would have hit the back of the head.

"Damn it!"

Just at this moment, the sound of horseshoes came from the east of the city, Tian Nan brought the Xuanjia guards, and Ke Duo, the prince's confidant, arrived in time with a team of imperial city guards.

After a while, the situation stabilized.

Tian Nan looked around, got off the horse with a sullen face, put his hand on the hilt of his sword, and knelt down in front of Lian Shenwei on one knee, "Your subordinate is late! Please forgive me, master!"

Ke Duo knelt down to salute, and when he saw the blood on the back of Ying Jingjue's hand, he was terrified: "His Royal Highness is injured, I should die! I am late!"

The captured assassins committed suicide one by one by taking poison.

"be honest!"

Xuanjiawei and the guards grabbed the leader, removed their jaws, and struggled with their eyes wide open.

Lian Shen slightly pulled out the long knife from a Xuanjiawei's waist.

The right hand held it weakly, and because the strength was not strong, the tip of the knife dragged on the ground, making an ear-piercing rubbing sound.

The scene suddenly quieted down, but the atmosphere was even more tense than before.

The young man in xuanyi stopped in front of the bandit head, the dark golden pattern on the bottom of his robe was extremely noble, and after walking just a few steps, it gave people a great sense of oppression.

"Who sent you here."

The thief sneered.

"Very strong."

Lian Shenwei nodded and smiled: "If you appear here, you probably know who Gu is."

In the next second, without warning, he raised his foot and kicked the head of the thief hard.Lian Shenwei couldn't use his internal strength, but he still had the foundation of martial arts training in previous years. This kick with [-]% strength directly sent people flying, his chest collapsed, he vomited blood, he lay on his back and crawled without getting up.

Lian Shenwei: "Bring it here."

The people around him didn't dare to say anything, and lifted them to his feet again.

Lian Shenwei found the most effort-saving posture, stepped on the head of the thief, and at the same time hung the tip of the knife in front of his eyeballs, raised it, aimed at his right eye, and spoke in a calm tone.

"I'm not good at martial arts alone, so take care of me."

After speaking, let go directly.

"Ahhh-"

With his jaw removed, the thief leader could only let out a vague and shrill cry meaninglessly.

Lian Shenwei's anger slowed down a little, and she wanted to cough, but remembered that Ying Jing had given her handkerchief to her, so she could only suppress the cough in her chest, paused for a moment, let go of her foot, "Tiannan, take this person away .”

Tian Nan took the knife in his hand: "Yes."

Coughing for a long time will make you uncomfortable, suffocating and slightly painful, Lian Shenwei controlled his breathing, and said to Jing Jue: "Your Highness, let's go back to the palace."

At this glance, he saw clearly the expression in Ying Jingjue's eyes——

Be vigilant and fearful.

The young Chujun just came back to his senses, and looked away from the pool of blood on the ground.

He knew that Lian Shenwei was not as gentle and gentle as he appeared on the surface, and he was full of cruelty and conspiracy, but it was the first time he saw him deal with people with his own hands, and the impact was not weak.

Perhaps because of Lian Shenwei's gentle smile in front of him, it was the first time that Ying Jingjue directly felt his danger.

He hid the guard in his eyes: "Teacher, it's better to hand over this person to Ben Gong."

Lian Shen paused for a moment, sneered in his heart, stopped looking at him, and said casually, "Tiannan."

Tiannan handed over the man to the Imperial City Guards.

Leaving behind those who dealt with the mess, they hurried to the palace.
