Chapter 447: Out of Body
When the Emperor and the Queen Mother were talking before, the door of the inner room was closed tightly. Since the sound insulation effect of the inner room was excellent, the Emperor was not worried that those words would be heard by Chief Zhang and the Sixth Prince.
Seeing that it had been a long time, the emperor asked Zhang Yuan to step down.
He didn't go out of the outer room. The emperor's body was really weak. He simply leaned on the bed and asked, "How is the investigation?"
He stood a little inside the door for a long time and said respectfully but expressionlessly: "The guards who were originally guarding the darkness of the imperial study are all dead."
The emperor was originally leaning against him. Hearing this, he sat up straight and stared at Chang Nian in shock. But in an instant, he felt that this should be the case. If he was not dead, how could those people not respond at all? "Why, how did you die?"
Chang Nian said: "The stab wounds are basically fatal with one stab. The body was found on the beam of the royal study. Would your Majesty want to take a look?"
The emperor closed his eyes, leaned back again, and waved his hand, "You can go and bury them properly for me."
Promise for many years.
The emperor's heart was boiling with anger.
He suffered stab wounds and died with one stab. His body was found on the beam of the imperial study room.
What does it mean?
It meant that someone came to the imperial study while he was away, and quietly killed his secret guards.
Who could this person be?
The emperor's mind was in a mess. He thought of the Queen Mother, the Prince, and King Duankang.
After a moment of silence, the emperor opened his eyes again and said to Changnian: "This time, you have made a contribution to the rescue. I will reward you. What do you want?"
A joyful expression suddenly appeared on the face that had been expressionless for many years. He looked at the emperor with bright eyes and knelt down, "I followed Prince Yu to do things that day. Later, after I was captured alive by Prince Yu, Prince Yu took me as a servant.
The lives of his family members were threatened, forcing his servants to betray King Yu and work for him.
But Master Feng asked Princess Anbo for help on the street. Because of the personal relationship between Qin Mo and Master Feng, the servant angered Prince Yu.
Also, I hope that your majesty can give this slave’s family peace.”
The emperor took Feng Ji as his own, so he naturally knew a lot about Chang Nian's situation, otherwise he wouldn't have stayed and used him today.
Hearing what he said at this time, the emperor sighed, "Now that the prince is in rebellion, many people in the Forbidden Army can no longer be retained. This gap is a bit big. Are you willing to stay in the Forbidden Army?"
"Can a slave be a forbidden soldier?" The elders were dumbfounded, their honest expressions dull and excited.
The emperor pleased him with this reaction, "It is obvious that you have made a contribution to the rescue. If I want to seal you, no one will stop you. As for Yan'er, from now on you have to deal with Yan'er and me. I'm afraid it will take some effort. If you can
Is it done?"
This is almost as straightforward as saying it.
The emperor wanted to use him as a guard, but also wanted him to maintain contact with Yu Yan.
Chang Nian immediately said: "I will not give up even if I die."
The emperor smiled and said: "It's time to surrender."
I have been clenching my teeth for a long time, tears rolling down my face.
"Okay, let's bury those people first. Your appointment decree will be sent directly to Prince Anbo's Mansion later."
"I thank Your Majesty for your kindness. I will fight to the death to protect the Emperor's safety. As long as I am here, I will never let something like this happen again!"
Chang Nian's words were sonorous and powerful, and the emperor was satisfied when he heard them.
The young apprentice of the head chamberlain obtained two spacious carts from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and together with several young chamberlains, he moved all eight or nine corpses onto the carts.
Now that he has been in the forbidden army for many years, the young chamberlain asked him respectfully, "Sir, how can I get him out?"
"Another Forbidden Brother and I pulled a car out manually and out of the palace. There were horses outside." Chang Nian said and looked at a Forbidden Soldier standing next to him.
The little chamberlain glanced at the imperial guard.
At a glance, he looked familiar, but he seemed to have never been seen in the ranks of the Forbidden Army.
The young chamberlain did not dare to say anything. His master, the chamberlain chief, had told him some words before, and he remembered them clearly.
"Okay, then please pay attention to your safety on the way. I won't send you away. My master is not awake yet, so I still have to serve His Majesty."
Chang Nian responded and called to the imperial army, and the two of them pulled a cart and set off.
After leaving the palace, there were two horses ready at the entrance of the palace early in the morning. They were both strong and powerful horses that could run at a glance. The horses were hitched to the carriage, and the two carriages galloped towards the outside of the city.
"Damn it, I'm going to choke myself to death! I'm not pretending to be dead even if I kill people and set fires!"
When the carriage left the city and reached the depths of the woods, the corpses in the carriage sat up. One of them wiped his face, stretched out and shouted.
The others burst into laughter.
"Who would have thought that if we followed the young prince to kill people and set fires, we would have to pretend to be dead. In the imperial study room, I almost had my butt exposed. It was all Zhao Jun's fault. I had to eat stuffed bean rice last night. I had to eat stuffed bean rice.
Not counting, I still have to eat sour radish, which makes me feel uncomfortable in my stomach."
"If you had really dared to show off, I would have beaten you to a pulp!"
There was another burst of laughter.
They were the same ones who rushed to the Imperial Study Room and pretended to be the prince to humiliate the emperor.
Later, Jian Nian brought people to rescue him, and a melee broke out. These people "lost" to each other and all of them "died".
After death, the body must be disposed of.
So at that time, Chang Nian plucked the onions from behind the desk and took the emperor away directly to the courtyard outside the royal study.
The emperor was unconscious in the courtyard. In the royal study, he could hear the clash of swords, but in fact it was a deliberate act.
The corpses thrown on the ground, thought to be rebels, were all the emperor's former guards in the imperial study, and a few of them pretended to be the emperor's guards and flew to the rafters to pretend to be dead.
When the emperor was angry, he would definitely not check the corpses one by one and let the people in the palace handle them directly.
The so-called treatment is just to take it to the side courtyard of Lenggong, dig a hole, sprinkle it with lime and bury it.
As for them, they had deliberately chosen to report back and forth to the emperor when he was almost dead because of the anger of the queen mother. Naturally, the emperor had no intention of checking anything and just let him be buried.
Chang Nian parked the carriage in a place in the forest, got out of the car with a smile, "You guys dig a hole for yourselves, dig a burial hole for yourselves, finish it quickly, we have the next task."
These people got off the carriage laughing.
"What Young Master Xiao means is that after an hour, the rumor must be spread in Kyoto and spread to the emperor's ears in the most violent way."
For many years, I have been worrying about things not getting done well.
Those people were digging a hole and said, "Just put your mind at ease and quickly return to the palace to serve as your imperial guard. We will definitely take care of the rumors."
Chang Nian smiled, got into the carriage with the Imperial Guard who came with him, and turned back.
In the palace, the emperor summoned the Minister of Punishment and the Minister of Dali Temple to discuss the execution of the prince.
The little chamberlain stood behind the emperor and brought him tea from time to time.
The head chamberlain had previously told him that the emperor was not in good health and should drink more pear soup instead of tea.
The little chamberlain did her duty and remembered everything.
After a glass of pear soup was finished, the waiter stepped back, still thinking about the Imperial Guard today.
Suddenly, his eyes widened.
He remembered.
That Forbidden Army...isn't that the eldest son of the Minister of Punishment's Mansion?
