Unparalleled Concubine

The light of the fire was getting closer and closer, and gradually it could be seen that there were seven or eight torches. Under the torches were a dozen or so people. These ten or so people were walking, but the one in the middle was leading a tall black horse, and struggled in the snow. walk.

The little emperor immediately lifted the curtain of the car and jumped down.

The moment he jumped down, the cold wind and snow hit his face, but the emperor didn't care at all, and ran towards several people stepping on the snow that was almost knee-deep.

Xiao Zheng had no choice but to run after him. He was wearing bright red clothes, which was quite eye-catching in the pure white snow.

The Son of Heaven was still a young man, and he was originally flexible, but now he had a heart again, and he ran extremely fast in the snow, and soon he was only five or six meters away from the group of people.

He finally saw who was coming.

Among the dozen or so people, Li Xin was surrounded in the middle. He was leading a big black horse, and he was wearing a thick fur coat. Because of the rush, some ice crystals had been stained on his hair and eyebrows, and his face and nose were already frozen. Some of them turned blue.

The emperor's eyes were a little red. He grew up in the Jing'an Hou Mansion, so he naturally knew that his uncle was not afraid of the sky and the earth, but he was especially afraid of the cold. In winter, the stove must be lit in the house, and he should be wrapped in a layer on the left and right. layer.

Few people can let him go out in the snow.

The emperor went up, stood still in front of the group of people, and bowed to the ground in a respectful manner.

"Student, I have met the teacher."

Originally, Li Xin could reach the capital two days ago, but the road was blocked by heavy snow, so he had to delay on the road for two days, because the situation in the capital was urgent, and the snow stopped a little today, so he immediately took his men on the road, the snow was too thick A horse cannot be ridden, it can only be held in the hand.

It was still snowing lightly at the moment, and there was a thin layer of snowflakes on the body and hair of the deeply bowed young man in front of him.

Lord Jing'an was silent for a while, then passed the crowd, stepped forward to help the young man up, forced a smile on his bluish face from the cold.

"As the emperor of Jin Dynasty, how can you lose your composure?"

No matter how much suspicion and jealousy there are between the two of them because of their identities, the friendship developed over the past ten years is always true. The young man has been bullied by those old foxes for more than half a year. Xin's mellow voice made his eyes turn red immediately.

Li Xin helped him up, and he pulled Li Xin's sleeve forcefully, his voice choked up.

"Uncle, they bullied me."

Lord Jing'an was taken aback for a moment, then took a wine pouch from his waist, took a sip himself, and handed it to the little emperor.

"This is Zhurong wine produced in the second year of Taikang, the strongest kind, drink two sips to drive away the cold."

Emperor Yuanzhao took the wine sac, raised his head and took a big sip. The strong wine was so strong that he coughed twice before recovering from it, but it was also very useful, and the chill all over his body immediately dissipated a lot.

Lord Jing'an took his hand and walked towards the south gate ahead, talking while walking.

"You are the emperor, only you bully others, no one bullies you."

The cold wind blew in, making Lord Li Hou's voice ethereal.

"I'll teach you how to be an emperor."

Under the sky full of wind and snow, Lord Jing'an led the young man who was half a head shorter than him, and walked into the capital city in the dark.

Chapter 919 Overslept

In the field of power, no emotion can truly exist. Even if father and son will fight each other because of the throne, naturally there will be no relationship between master and apprentice.

The reason why the Son of Heaven and Li Xin are so close now is because the two sides need each other. The Son of Heaven needs Li Xin to stand up for him and clean up the mess in the capital. Li Xin also needs to take this opportunity to return to the center of power. Get what he wants.

Of course, the relationship between the two people is not purely a relationship of interest. Apart from this need, the emperor was raised by Li Xin after all. Li Xin regards him as a junior, and he also regards Li Xin as an elder. No matter what position, everyone is human. After more than ten years of getting along, even a rock can be warmed up.

Because Desheng Street had been cleared out, it was much easier to walk after entering the capital. Li Xin sat in the emperor's carriage and warmed up around the stove.

He is indeed afraid of the cold. This is a problem left over from Chengde for 17 years. Since the heavy snow that year, he has never seen the cold, and he is more afraid of the cold than ordinary people. Every winter these years has been difficult.

The two masters and apprentices talked all the way in the carriage, and the carriage finally stopped at Yongle Square. Li Xin rubbed his hands around the stove, and said, "Your Majesty, I'm home, let's go home and have a rest, and then enter tomorrow." palace."

Emperor Yuanzhao was not as excited as before. He glanced at Li Xin and said, "My aunt is not in the capital, and there is no one in your house. Teacher, why don't you stay in the palace with me for one night."

"That won't work."

Lord Jing'an said with a smile: "There are rules between the emperor and the ministers. If the ministers inside and outside the palace are not allowed to enter, that is, they are not allowed to enter. This time, your Majesty has already suffered from the loss of etiquette. You can't let the ministers be punished by those big heads tomorrow." The scholar participated in a book, saying that the ministers are dirty and messed up the harem?"

Emperor Yuanzhao was silent for a while, and asked, "Then teacher, you should enter the palace earlier tomorrow."

"Shen Kuan and the others have been preparing for a long time, and the officials in the court have been persuaded a lot by them. Tomorrow is the grand court meeting..."

Lord Jing'an narrowed his eyes, and asked, "Shang Shutai means that His Majesty is going to be abolished and the Sixth Prince?"

The emperor nodded, and said helplessly: "The sixth younger brother and my mother are compatriots, but they are only six years old this year. I understand their thoughts. After the sixth younger brother is established, he can only be in charge at the age of 16. These people can Be a minister for ten years."

"A idiot talks about a dream."

Lord Jing'an chuckled: "The court can restrain the world, but the world is not only in the court, the world is so big, how can those few big-headed scholars be able to grasp it in their hands just by playing with their minds."

"Who are the people who turned to Shen Kuan?"

Because of the cold weather, Emperor Yuanzhao breathed out a white breath, and he said slowly: "They both sent people to the Chong family and the Ye family, and the people from the Tianmu Supervisor couldn't find out what was going on, but the governor Ji Lin, most likely turned to them, and at least half of the civil servants in the court supported Shen Kuan and the others."

"These civil-official newspaper groups have coerced most of the positions in the imperial court. If not, the disciples can deal with them by themselves."

"Your Majesty doesn't understand these scholars."

Lord Jing'an chuckled: "Their bones are far from as hard as His Majesty thought. In the beginning, as long as a few people were killed, the matter would be over. But now that it has developed to this point, these people have already arrived It’s not so easy to deal with the situation where you don’t succeed or you become benevolent.”

At the very beginning, if Emperor Yuanzhao was decisive and directly killed Shen Kuan and the others, he might have been infamous, but no matter how many former students Shen Kuan and the others had, these civil servants would not be killed because of their teachers or others. When the Shangguan died "injustice", he screamed and came to seek revenge from the emperor with a knife.

Few people have this kind of backbone. Most of them will "bear the burden of humiliation" and continue to be their own officials, pretending that nothing has happened on the surface.

However, things have come to this point, and they are not the same as they were at the beginning. Nowadays, many people have participated in the "destroyed emperor" matter, and the matter has become their prosperity, soaring to the sky, and when the matter fails, they will naturally copy and kill , a complete failure.

At this time, their wealth and lives have already been staked, and they will report to the group to the death. Killing people at this time is not as simple as killing one or two.

Emperor Yuanzhao looked at Li Xin and asked, "What does the teacher mean?"

"Tomorrow will be the court meeting, and the minister will also go."

Lord Jing'an looked calm, and said: "Your Majesty just needs to continue as usual, and leave the rest to the minister."

Having said that, Li Xin paused.

"What's more, about the case file of Chu Guiren's family from the Tianmu Supervisor and Jingzhao Mansion, please send someone to my house, Your Majesty."

Emperor Yuanzhao nodded immediately.

"I'll send Xiao Zheng to the teacher's house in a while."

Lord Jing'an smiled, opened the curtain, bent down and got out of the carriage.

The carriage was parked in the alley of Yongle Square, not very far from Jing'anhou's Mansion. Li Xin wrapped himself in furs and bowed his head slightly to the emperor's carriage: "It's getting late, Your Majesty should go back to the palace."
