The wind blows the plum blossoms over Guanshan

After Changsheng drank the last bowl of medicine, Chi Lu left, and no one knew his whereabouts.Walking to the backyard, the plum blossoms have already fallen, but the peach blossoms are blooming like pink clouds.Recipe, Shining.It's a pity that it blooms in troubled times, and not many people spend their time admiring the flowers.

News came from Longcheng that Emperor Cheng was assassinated at a palace banquet and was dying.The emperor is critically ill. At this time, it is reasonable to announce that all the princes should go back to Longcheng to see Emperor Cheng, but the princes are blocked from Longcheng.A few days later, after the national funeral, the crown prince Murong Dexin took the throne immediately on the grounds that the country could not live without a king for a day.

At this time, Murong Zhaohui was still guarding Chudi and did not move, but Changsheng knew that he was waiting, waiting for an appropriate time.

As expected, Wu Wang Murong Xingping was the first to lose his temper. After being rejected for an audience, he marched north to win over Nanping King Murong Kangding, and the second king Chen Bing in the southern suburbs of Longcheng, saying that the prince Murong Dexin killed his father and king. .The two armies fought against each other for more than half a month, and the forces of the two sides were evenly matched, resulting in countless casualties.At this time, Murong Zhi and Murong Zhaohui sent troops from Shu and Chu, claiming to encircle and suppress the chaos between the two kings and restore peace to the world.

The two armies of Shu and Chu went north, and the people in the north fled in a hurry and went to the south.It is obviously spring, but there is a huge difference from south to north.The paddy fields in the south are full of life and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, but the land in the north is full of weeds, and people are forced to flee their homeland before they have time to cultivate.When approaching Longcheng, there was scorched earth all around, like traces left by the use of firearms.The gate of the city was wide open, and according to reports from the spies, the second king had already approached the palace.

"Hey! Little thing, why do you look worried lately? If this incident can be successful, you will have a share of the benefits in the future." Murong Zhi was tall and tall, dressed in black, with a slightly teasing look on his face.Chang Sheng remained calm, and only replied indifferently: "His Royal Highness, don't talk to me again, I really don't know where Chi Lu is going."

The teasing look on Murong Zhi's face faded away, and he left without saying a word.Chang Sheng stared at the unhurried carriage in front of him, feeling indescribable.

Both the imperial court and the two kings suffered losses. When Murong Zhi and Murong Zhaohui came to Longcheng, Murong Xingping and Murong Kangding had few troops left, so they were easily captured by the two armies of Shu and Chu.The gate of the palace was opened, and the disabled imperial guards were unable to withstand the oncoming forces of the two armies and fell down one after another.

The palace was empty and desolate, and white curtains fluttered in the hall.

After nearly four years, Changsheng saw Murong Dexin again.He had never seen him so embarrassed.Although Murong Dexin was well dressed, she couldn't hide the tiredness in her eyes.Murong Jianing stood in front of Murong Dexin with a golden sword in his hand, but was pulled behind him.The palace people died and fled. The mourning period in March has not yet passed, and the white curtains in the hall are fluttering with the wind.

"You guys are finally here," he looked at Murong Zhaohui with disdain in his eyes. "I knew that you are the best pretender among the brothers—Murong Zhaohui. What good things are you and yours... Forget it, who made me ask you." Murong Dexin told Murong Jianing's Holding her hand, she said, "I don't ask for help easily. Jianing is still young, please let him go. Don't leave him in Longcheng either. Let him... be sealed somewhere else." Murong Jianing's eyes widened , grabbed Murong Dexin's sleeve: "Brother Huang, I don't want to leave you. I...I want to kill these traitors!"

Murong Jianing stared angrily, Murong Dexin took his hand and persuaded him to stop, the young man's eyes gradually became moist.

Farewell to Longcheng, more than three years and nearly four years have passed in the blink of an eye.In Changsheng's memory, Murong Jianing was still a child, but he did not expect that he has transformed into a teenager now, with eyebrows and eyes quite similar to Murong Dexin.

Murong Zhaohui was not moved by the deep brotherhood in front of him, and said coldly: "I will not kill people who have nothing to do with it. This king still thinks about brotherhood. Just according to what you said, I will change the title of King Fengxiang to Tianshui County After today, this king will announce to the world that Emperor Ren has died at the hands of King Wu and King Nanping. From now on, you are dead."

Murong Dexin was taken aback: "You don't intend to kill me?"

"What's the use of killing you? It is enough for you to be dead in the eyes of the world. But... for the next few decades, His Majesty Rendi may have to spend alone."

Under Murong Dexin's unbelievable expression, two guards took him down.Murong Jianing was also secretly sent out of the city to Tianshui County.Tianshui County is a very desolate place, and foreign enemies invade and rob supplies from time to time, it is a place that no one in the court wants to go to.

When Murong Zhaohui was dealing with these matters, Murong Zhi just watched with cold eyes and did not speak.When there were only the three of them left in the hall, he said slowly: "King Chu, should we discuss the rest of the matter?" Chang Sheng listened for a moment, this was what he was most afraid of.He knew that Murong Zhaohui and Murong Zhi still had something to discuss. Murong Zhi had great ambitions, and he was worried about Murong Zhaohui's safety.

"No hurry, didn't you say wait until I find the result I want? The world is already in our hands, so why rush for a while. Go and reward the soldiers first. They marched all the way and worked hard."

"What if you suddenly cheated or deliberately delayed the time? How does it count?"

"Don't worry, it won't be long. I'll meet two people, and it will take half a day at most. Changsheng, follow me."

Walking through the familiar roads of the palace, passing through many palaces, Changsheng knows the way, he has been here before.Although it does not lead to the Cuiyu Palace where he lived in the past, he still remembers where it is.That year, he played snowball fights with the five or six princes, and came here after running, but he passed out by the wall because of the wind and cold. Thanks to His Royal Highness, the eldest son, he was healed in time.It is quiet and peaceful here, as if it has nothing to do with the killing outside.When they entered, Murong Beihong was holding a book of yellowed poems and slowly looked at them, accompanied by Hua Xue, who was reading at the side, just like it was many years ago.

"Brother Huang, you are the one who sent me the letter." There was no doubt in Murong Zhaohui's words, as if he was just stating a fact.

Changsheng also understood that Murong Zhaohui had kept his own law and order, if there hadn't been an accident in the middle, he would probably have stayed in Chudi forever, and would not have the idea of ​​seizing the heir.And that accident must have something to do with the person Murong Zhaohui cared about most - his mother, Mrs. Lian.The person who sent the news to Murong Zhaohui must be in the inner courtyard of the palace, and he is very familiar with the affairs of the royal family, and even knows some news that ordinary people cannot know.It's just that he didn't expect it to be this man who seemed indifferent to the world.

Murong Beihong put down the collection of poems in his hand, and smiled slightly: "Your brother, you are still here as expected."

"Brother Huang, I'm very strange. Why do you tell me this? Brothers defect, what benefits can you gain? As the king of Hexi, you live in the inner courtyard of the palace and don't have your own army. If you want the world, It should be impossible. Unless you have a way to get rid of Murong Zhi and me."

"Hahahaha... Emperor Brother, you are worrying too much. Yes, my goal is indeed not the world. You can safely go and grab Murong Zhi without worrying about me." Murong Beihong paused for a while, then continued. "I just... don't want people from the Helian family to be the masters of our country of Yan, and I don't want the vicious woman Helianxi and her son to rule the world. Without that woman, my legs don't need to be lame, and neither can my second brother." Died...Our mother...doesn't have to die...Oh, Empress Rende, how can she have any kindness?"

Changsheng listened slowly from the side, with waves surging in his heart.Naturally, he had seen Empress Rende before. She was beautiful, solemn, and often had a superior attitude.Every time she saw her, she always appeared on the stage with a lot of stars, exchanged a few words with Murong Dexin and Murong Jianing before leaving, and she didn't seem to pay attention to others at all.

"Our father is also... He knows what that woman did. He is cowardly, and he let the Helian family control the court without any complaints. The court has become a mess, and all the forces are in control. In the hands of the Helian clan, the efficiency is extremely low, I think... if the country falls into their hands, the country of Yan will not be far from being destroyed..."

Chang Sheng followed behind Murong Zhaohui, and what Murong Beihong said earlier echoed in his mind.He never thought that under the gentle surface of the eldest son of the emperor, there is another side that is unknown.The Hall of Rende is the place where Empress Rende lived. After the death of the first emperor, it was time to respect her as Empress Dowager Rende.At this time, Rende Hall was as silent as death, the smell of ambergris was floating in the air, but the censer had been extinguished.A woman was leaning on a chaise longue with her eyes closed.There is a white jade jug on the table, and there is still some unfinished wine in the cup.This woman is the current Empress Dowager Rende, but at this time she has passed away.

Chang Sheng thought he would be disappointed, but he just left indifferently.

The generals and some soldiers of the two armies of Chu and Shu gathered outside the main hall, while the rest of the army retreated to the surrounding area of ​​Longcheng and divided into four directions.The soldiers in the palace feasted to their heart's content, adding a bit of anger to Xiao Suo's palace.The sky gradually darkened, and the palace lights were lit.Changsheng stood beside Murong Zhaohui, the lights outside the door were dim, it was incomparable to the grand occasion of the palace banquet back then, and his mentality at this time was even more unusual.

I don't know my father... where is he now?It was in chaos, and I don't know if my father is still in Sikong's residence.My father was alert, so he might have gone back to his hometown early to take refuge, depending on the situation.

During the banquet, Murong Zhaohui tilted his head for a long look, then lowered his head again, picked up the wine glass, and drank it down in one gulp.After several glasses of wine, Hui's face turned red.Chang Sheng was a little anxious, Murong Zhaohui shouldn't be drunk at this time, he should know.

After drinking for three rounds, the soldiers who were having a banquet in the hall were so drunk that the cups and plates were messed up all over the place.Murong Zhi glanced at the drunk Murong Zhaohui and said: "Changsheng, you help the King of Chu go back to rest first. I will send someone to invite the King of Chu to discuss matters tomorrow."

Chang Sheng nodded silently, and helped Murong Zhaohui out of the main hall.The moment he left the main hall, Chang Sheng didn't know where to go.After pausing for a while, he still decided to go back to Cuiyu Palace.Xiao Shuangyanzi and others who were waiting at the side hall saw Chang Sheng helping Murong Zhaohui out, and hurried forward.Seeing that Murong Zhaohui was really drunk, Chang Sheng carried him on his back as the palace was in chaos and there were no soft sedan chairs.

Time seemed to go back to that snowy day many years ago, Chang Sheng was walking hard in the snow with Murong Zhaohui on his back, but now that they have grown up, Chang Sheng feels that Murong Zhaohui seems to be lighter than before.Perhaps, he is getting stronger gradually, now he is taller than Murong Zhaohui.
