Chapter 17 Chapter 17

The virtuous king, who had just recovered from a serious illness, went to the early court, and the important ministers who had made good friends with him sent bursts of greetings.

And Han Fang's sickly appearance was also wiped out, none of them mentioned the changes of the past few days, just in line with Si Tianjian's words: Brothers should be harmonious.

After coming down to court, Han Fang kept Han Qi.

"King Xian," Han Fang cut straight to the point, "Is it you who broke into Crouching Dragon Palace yesterday?"

"Yes." Han Qi stood upright, his wide purple python robe covering the wound on his chest.

"Come here," Han Fang stood up from the dragon chair, "The virtuous king intends to rebel, and he will be thrown into death row to await punishment!"

Zhao Zhangrui entered with the influx of guards. He pulled off his robe, knelt down forcefully and said, "Think twice, Your Majesty! You and the virtuous king have just recovered from illness, so there should be no further trouble."

Zhao Zhangrui's words have always carried weight in the court, no matter whether it is right or not, Han Fang always has to be cautious.

"My lord prime minister, you forced me to withdraw my decree yesterday with your death. What are you going to use today? You are protecting him so much because the king is your son-in-law, right?" In front of the guards, "You are rebelling! You all want to rebel!"

"Your Majesty, calm down!" Zhao Zhangrui, who was over half a century old, kowtowed to him.

Seeing this, the guards all knelt down with him.

Eunuch Qian came at the right time and also pleaded with Han Fang for Han Qi.

It's not that Han Fang's words are not easy to use, but that they all think that the Holy Majesty's recent behavior has been crazy, especially towards the virtuous king, but no one dares to speak out.

Han Qi didn't kneel down for a long time, which angered Han Fang even more.

"Hehehe! You...you..." Han Fang took out the Moon Shadow Knife and threw it at Han Qi's feet, "Is this thing from your mansion?"

"Yes." Han Qi replied in a deep voice.

Not only the guards, but even Zhao Zhangrui were stunned. He didn't think of a word to defend him for a while, so Han Fang let Han Fang go on and say: "The Moon Shadow Knife is a token of the Tatar royal family! The wise king colluded with the Tatars to deliberately plot rebellion. I will deal with it." Someone wants to tell you evidence?! Do you really think I am crazy?!"

The guards reacted quickly and suppressed the silent Han Qi.

"Prime Minister," Han Fang tried his best to comfort Zhao Zhangrui without the extra strength to deal with him, "Ling Ai's marriage with King Xian is void, and I will find a lover for him."

"Your Majesty, what Si Tianjian said is reasonable. You can't conclude that the virtuous king is unfaithful to you just because of a dagger." Zhao Zhangrui knelt down and couldn't get up, "Forgive me, old minister, you have been too harsh on the virtuous king recently. What a wise gentleman should do!"

Han Fang suddenly couldn't control his temper, as if something was manipulating him, anger was churning in his chest, and when the words he wanted to say reached his lips, he changed the words.

"I'm not a wise king? He is a virtuous king? You have been a minister for three dynasties, and you have learned to help others fight against your own monarch? I think you all want to rebel..."

Before Han Fang had time to return to his dragon chair, he fainted and fell to the ground.

The astonished Eunuch Qian helped Han Fang up.

"Eunuch Lao went to stop the guards escorting the virtuous king, and told them that the emperor ordered that the Tatar affairs were tricky and had nothing to do with the virtuous king, and told them to let the virtuous king go back." Zhao Zhangrui stood up slowly and said.

Eunuch Qian was in a dilemma, but Zhao Zhangrui's words were not without reason.

The emperor has had a lot of nightmares recently, as if possessed by a demon, sometimes sober and sometimes crazy, but the virtuous king didn't do anything, he was punished by the emperor, and he was accused of collaborating with the enemy and treason.

Although he is a slave, but his eyes are not blind, don't want to wrong the virtuous king.

Now that the prime minister has spoken, he will do as he says.

Lin Qiannan stopped Zhao Zhangrui on the prime minister's way out of the palace, he cupped his hands respectfully and said, "Your Excellency."

"Young master Lin, you didn't say that the virtuous king colluded with the Tatars?" Zhao Zhangrui stood in the corner talking with him.

"The virtuous king doesn't know about it," Lin Qiannan whispered, "walls have ears, let's find a place, and I will explain the cause and effect to the prime minister."

Lin Qiannan put on his cloak, stepped into the prime minister's mansion through the back door, and found Zhao Zhangrui who was waiting for him in the study, making tea.

He needs Zhao Zhangrui's help and trust.

"Thank you, Prime Minister, for your hospitality," Lin Qiannan took a sip of good tea to moisten his voice, and was about to tell Zhao Zhangrui the story he had kept in his heart for a long time.

Five years ago, Lin Qiannan, who thought he had a good relationship with Han Mian, was poisoned by the absolute poison. As a young and frivolous young man, he thought that there must be an antidote for the poison, so he didn't pay much attention to the poison. .

At that time, he didn't know why the poisoned Han Fang would regularly send him the delayed antidote. He wanted to leave the capital and go back to the south of the Yangtze River to find the antidote, but he was caught by the late emperor on the way to say goodbye to Han Qi.

Everything was out of his control, he didn't know anything, the late emperor didn't say anything, except that he would give him antidote regularly, and he would hide something in him that could threaten Han Fang.

He was imprisoned by the first emperor for nearly three years, and when he came out, he was already a different person.

"Thanks to the absolute poison, I can recover quickly after being seriously injured. Otherwise, I would have died many times under the inhuman torture." Lin Qiannan didn't care about uncovering the scabbed old wound, No matter how bloody and bloody he was, he could heal quickly, just like the two years he had been by Han Qi's side.

"The first emperor hid the red edict on your body?" Zhao Zhangrui's cloudy eyes were full of shock.

"Exactly."

"you……"

"Don't worry about this matter, I will present the red edict in a short time!" Lin Qiannan drank the cool tea, "I will explain the Tatar matter to the prime minister. The Lin family was charged with adultery Tatar, indeed, the Lin family sent tens of thousands of taels of gold and silver to Tatar, so the entire Lin family was wiped out."

He talked about all the hardships very simply, but Zhao Zhangrui still noticed his trembling hands.

"Since the Lin family has given away the money, I will naturally make good use of it." Lin Qiannan rubbed the pattern of the teacup with his fingertips, "I had no intention of kidnapping Shen Tuxuan who was seriously injured. This is my second hand."

"Heir of Tatar?" Zhao Zhangrui couldn't sit still, walking up and down in the study, "No wonder Tatar has been in civil strife for the past two years."

"That's right," Lin Qiannan clasped his hands again, "Thank you for taking care of the prince for the past two years, so that he can stand alone. When the Tatars quell the civil strife and attack again in the future, the prince will definitely be able to deal with it."

"Hey, you said two years ago that you wanted to cooperate with me, but you didn't want any benefits." Zhao Zhangrui admired him for his thoughtfulness, "Can you guarantee that the virtuous king will marry my daughter?"

Poor parents all over the world, what kind of humble attitude did the father, who had passed away for many years, ask Han Fang to detoxify him?

What he understands may be only a little bit of suffering.

"Yes," Lin Qiannan said, "In two days, Miss Zhao will be Princess Xian, or..."

The gray beard at the corner of Zhao Zhangrui's mouth moved, and a glimmer of light flashed in his cloudy eyes.

"Empress of Yu Kingdom, I believe in the virtuous king, he will not hold grudges against the prime minister's mansion like today." Lin Qiannan said, "Also, please prime minister to hide everything I said today for me."

Zhao Zhangrui is a shrewd prime minister, he knows how to stand in line, Han Fang has suppressed him everywhere in recent years, and he probably has long thought of uprooting the Zhao family's power.

It is better to take the initiative to attack than to sit still.

But one question kept haunting him.

"Why do you help the virtuous king?" Zhao Zhangrui seemed to be declaring rather than asking, "You said you were poisoned, and it seems that the poison has been cured from your current appearance. Mr. Lin wants the ignorant virtuous king to hate you forever?"

"When I help the Xian Wang, I also help myself and the Lin family. Although I have a close relationship with the Xian Wang, we have a long and ruthless bond. What we have been entangled with for many years is nothing more than hate words. The prime minister does not need to worry, but the poison... will not be cured. , "Lin Qiannan smiled, "It's getting late, I'll take my leave first."

Lin Qiannan spent five years talking about two cups of tea.

He was not in a hurry to return to the palace, and went to the beaming Xianwang Mansion with ease.

He is like a thief, he has to go through the back door everywhere, and the front door will never be opened for him.

"Young Master Lin?"

Huo Liang was recuperating on the bed, seeing Lin Qiannan who quickly closed the door, he couldn't help but want to get out of bed and salute.

"Lie down, general. I'm a commoner. How can I ask you to salute me." Lin Qiannan stopped him, "I've come to tell the general something important."

"Does the lord know?" Huo Liang worried.

"He doesn't know, I didn't intend to see him, I have stayed in the palace day and night for more than two years, I have a way to avoid all eyes and ears," Lin Qiannan said, "I will give the general something."

Lin Qiannan took out an ancient tiger talisman with no pattern, "General, keep it well, the other half is only for the emperor to command, and it's useless for me to find it hard."

"This..." Huo Liang took the heavy tiger talisman with a solemn heart, "I have been confiscated by the emperor, can I use it as an empty shell?"

"Remember, General." Lin Qiannan raised his mouth slightly, his eyes were filled with unreadable thoughts, "Your Majesty, you are already a lunatic."

Huo Liang has been recuperating in the palace for many days, but he still heard a lot of gossip in the capital.The people were very dissatisfied with the emperor's successive treatment of the virtuous king, the great general, and clean officials from all over the place. They thought that the emperor was suffering from a madness, which made the capital panic.

Those who secure the hearts of the people will secure the world, and those who lose the hearts of the people will lose the world.

"What can I do?" Huo Liang asked eagerly.

"Mr. Qing, protect the emperor and let him abdicate smoothly." After Lin Qiannan finished speaking, he bent down suddenly and spit out a mouthful of black blood with a strange fragrance.

"Mr. Lin, isn't your poison all in your veins?!" Huo Liang said.

Lin Qiannan wiped off the black blood from the corner of his mouth, and said indifferently: "I have used forbidden medicine that can restore my martial arts, and the poison has spread to my internal organs, so we have to hurry up. After a year, I don't know if I can still do it." live."

"Mr. Lin, I will do my best to help the virtuous king!" Huo Liang lowered his eyes unbearably.

"Very well, don't tell King Xian that I've been here," Lin Qiannan was about to leave when he heard footsteps outside the door, "Someone is coming, I'll hide first, you deal with it yourself."

Lin Qiannan jumped onto the beam, and Huo Liang threw off a shirt to cover up the black blood.

Han Qi pushed the door open and entered.
