After resigning, the little emperor ceased to be a human being [Transmigration Book]

Chapter 64

The quiet and dark atmosphere is the best way to arouse people's tension. Jiang Sui stood in this strange but familiar palace. After he stabilized his mind, he turned his eyes and looked at the decoration of the palace.

Chengming Palace is still the same Chengming Palace, but without those extravagant and extravagant decorations. When the old emperor was there, Chengming Palace was full of the smell of money. The walls are not pictures of famous artists, but one after another. People couldn't help but blush when they saw the erotic ladies and ministers who came to discuss matters with the old emperor. Nine times out of ten, he would come out with disheveled clothes and frivolous steps, with a stench on his body.

The Chengming Palace used to be the place Jiang Sui hated the most, but there was nothing wrong with the building. It has been standing in the palace for hundreds of years, and has received more than a dozen emperors intermittently. In the future, it will receive more.

Wei Xun changed everything in Chengming Palace, ranging from furniture to small decorations, even the floor tiles were raised and resurfaced. It can be said that now, except for the original walls, everything else has been revised.

After replacing all those things, Chengming Palace is like a brand new palace, deep, majestic, solemn, and the details are a little warm.

Just like Wei Xun.

Jiang Sui wandered around the main hall, then raised his feet and walked towards the side hall.

There was no one in the main hall, and no lights were lit. The side hall was much better. Someone passed by, and the candles flickered on both sides. Wei Xun was sitting at the center of the round table, reading a booklet.

Jiang Sui walked to a distance of two meters from him, then stopped.

Haohao suddenly moved to Chengming Palace, and there is not a single weird palace person in this palace, no matter how you look at it, it seems to have ulterior motives.

Jiang Sui stood quietly, waiting for Wei Xun to reveal the answer to him.

With a normal face, he wrote a sentence on the booklet, then Wei Xun raised his head and curled his lips at Jiang Sui, "Ah Sui came back so fast, have you seen Jiang Zhui?"

Jiang Sui observed his expression for a while, but didn't see anything. After a moment of silence, he walked over like a stream of kindness, and sat down beside Wei Xun, "Well, I've seen it, he's doing well, and he's not doing well during this period of time." After returning to the palace, I will stay in the general's residence."

Wei Xun listened and nodded, "That's fine, Jiang Zhui is your younger brother, he lives with General Gu, and you can rest assured that General Gu will take care of him."

Jiang Sui pursed his lips and smiled, as if he agreed.

Wei Xun looked at him, "I've seen Jiang Zhui, Ah Sui should have nothing to worry about outside the palace, right?"

Jiang Sui had a bad premonition, but he still hummed, "Not in the near future."

Wei Xun raised the corner of his mouth, "That's good, come on, Ah Sui, take a look at this."

Wei Xun handed Jiang Sui the brochure he had just finished. Jiang Sui lowered his head, unfolded the brochure, and found that it was not an ordinary book, but a draft edict.

The official imperial edict needs to be copied by the minister on the imperial edict, but the previous draft was conceived and written by Wei Xun himself.

There are no more than three types of edicts. There are major events in the country, major events in the court, or major events in His Majesty himself.

……

Big things are not necessarily bad things, just like the imperial edict in Jiang Sui's hand, he read it for a long time, and didn't know what expression he should show for a while.

This edict is related to him. It is written that the regent has worked hard for many years and dedicated his youth and energy to the court. Now that his energy is low and his body is sick, he is really unable to contribute to the community. His Majesty is grateful for his years of hard work. Thanks to him, he decided to take him into the palace, appoint an imperial doctor to treat him, when he recovered, and when he was allowed to leave.As for his title, it will be reserved for him. However, there is only one title left for him. His work and other positions have all been taken back and distributed to several other capable adults according to the rules.

Jiang Sui could imagine what kind of uproar this edict would cause if it was issued.

The courtiers would definitely think that he was imprisoned by Wei Xun on the pretext of recovering from his illness, his power was emptied, and he himself was placed under house arrest. The regent who had dominated the court for seven years was finally overthrown by His Majesty Xiongqi.

……

After reading the edict from the beginning to the end, Jiang Sui smiled inexplicably and put the edict on the table. Jiang Sui asked him, "Your Majesty, show me this. What does it mean?"

Wei Xun's voice was very calm, "Didn't Ah Sui say that he was tired? I thought about it, but I didn't notice Ah Sui's mood. Everyone has different ambitions. Ah Sui's favorite things are not in court. I shouldn't It should be understood to stop it. Now that I know how to be a good emperor, I no longer need to ask Ah Sui for everything, so Ah Sui can naturally retreat to the back and rest for a while."

Jiang Sui listened to him patiently, then tapped the imperial edict lightly with his index finger, "That's not what I asked."

"Cure the disease, you can't go out until it's cured, what does that mean?"

Wei Xun was silent for a moment, then looked at him quietly, "literally."

Jiang Sui looked at him, both of them had no expression on their faces, they just confronted each other for a while, Wei Xun was the first to lose, he avoided Jiang Sui's sight, lowered his eyes and said: "Ah Sui is not sick, But I'm sick. You said you don't want to be the regent, I promise you, the regent is not the only way of life in this world, no matter what you want to do, I will support you and accompany you, but you must first do what you want I will let you go out if you think about the matter, otherwise, I will always worry about whether you are planning to escape again."

A life without a goal is like a rootless duckweed that floats wherever it goes, without a fixed place, which makes people feel desolate for no reason.

Wei Xun didn't understand why being the regent would make Jiang Sui feel so painful and depressed, but since he was unhappy, Wei Xun would not let him do it again, but he always wanted to think of other things besides the regent What do you want to do.

In one's life, one must have a goal. When the heart is settled, the body will be settled down. At that time, even if Wei Xun didn't shut him up, he would not think about running outside.

After he finished speaking, Jiang Sui smiled silently and asked, "What if after thinking about it for a long time, I still feel that leaving the palace and going back to the mountains and forests is what I want?"

Wei Xun raised his eyes: "Then you won't come back."

Jiang Sui looked at him, and after a while, he sighed as if admitting defeat, "Your Majesty is really persistent."

Wei Xun pursed his lips and did not speak. Jiang Sui put his arms on the table and supported his face. He asked lazily, "When I'm locked up, can I still go for a walk in the Imperial Garden?"

Wei Xun: "It's fine when I accompany you."

Jiang Sui raised his eyebrows, "I still live in Wenhua Palace?"

"No, you live in Chengming Palace and stay with me."

Jiang Sui couldn't help raising his head, looked at the sleeping hall on the other side, and when he turned his head again, his tone was meaningful: "So it was with His Majesty."

Wei Xun: "..."

I don't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that Jiang Sui was teasing himself, but he did have some shady thoughts in his heart, and there were ghosts in his heart, so his ears gradually turned red.

Avoiding Jiang Sui's sight, Wei Xun said coldly: "Ah Sui is too smart, if you don't let me watch it personally, you will run away again at some point."

Jiang Sui smiled and said, "If you look at me, won't I be able to run away?"

Thinking of the night when he was drugged, Wei Xun suddenly turned dark, "If you hadn't taken advantage of my trust in you, how could I have been tricked!"

"Yes," Jiang Sui sighed sadly, "It's all because His Majesty trusts me too much, and it's really wicked of me to take advantage of this trust."

Wei Xun: "..."

Why do you feel more angry?

……

No matter what, Jiang Sui accepted the situation that he was under house arrest very calmly. Wei Xun thought he would get angry and make a scene with himself, but who knew that he was so calm, which made Wei Xun suspicious for a long time. I feel that he is simmering some bad water in the dark.

This is wronging people, if there are other unsightly things in Wei Xun's house arrest, of course Jiang Sui would not be so calm.But Wei Xun was too honest. When he said house arrest, it was pure house arrest. At most, he could arrange a task for him to think about what he wanted to do in the future. If he could go to bed early, Mo Yu would serve him when the emperor was busy, and would personally accompany him when the emperor was not busy.House arrest for writing, vacation for reading, this is probably how immortals live their lives.

As long as Wei Xun didn't bring up the matter of going out, Wei Xun would respond to his requests. Jiang Sui asked him to send the heir of the palace. Not long after, the guards brought the pigeons and their nests. When Wei Xun was reviewing the memorial, Jiang Sui Feeding the pigeons.

Sometimes, the son would jump onto Wei Xun's desk and peck Wei Xun's pen holder, like a woodpecker, dangling the pen holder, Wei Xun ignored him, and even indulged him, watching A little spoiled.

Jiang Sui leaned against the door panel, stood with his chest folded, looked at it for a while, and said with a half-smile, "Your Majesty is like this, you should change your name to Prince."

It doesn't look like Jiang Sui's son, but Wei Xun's son.

Wei Xun paused while writing, and scolded Jiang Sui lightly, but the words were weak no matter how you looked at them, "Don't talk nonsense, how can there be a pigeon as a prince."

"But," Jiang Sui said innocently, "I am not as close to your majesty as the prince. It's so strange. Obviously, I am the master of the prince and spend more time with him, right, your majesty?"

Wei Xun: "..."

His Majesty felt guilty and dared not speak.

The atmosphere between the two humans was a bit strange. Shi Zi pecked enough at the pen holder, raised his little head, and let out a questioning grunt.

His Majesty came back two days, and he dealt with the backlog of official affairs before. He didn't mention the disappearance before, nor did he mention Jiang Sui who has not come back to court. Although the edict was written, he has been released by him all the time. Pressed under the memorial, even Jiang Sui couldn't figure out what he wanted to do.

However, none of this has anything to do with Jiang Sui.

No matter what Wei Xun plans to say to the outside world, Jiang Sui has already plucked himself clean, and he will let go as soon as he says to let go. He takes care of himself during the day and teases the thin-skinned Wei Xun at night. If there is no accident, he plans to find pain relief in Jiang Er It's been like this before.

On the afternoon of the third day, Jiang Sui was taking a nap curled up on the bed under a thick blanket, when Wei Xun walked in suddenly and said to him, "I found that spy."

Jiang Sui opened his eyes in a daze, and after hearing these words, he suddenly woke up.

The spy who contacted Wei Qian in private was the culprit who was caught shortly after he ran out. Jiang Sui privately guessed that this person should not be an ordinary courtier, otherwise he would not be able to clearly grasp the movement of the capital.

He didn't sit up, but lay on his side like this, with his big eyes open, obediently waiting for Wei Xun's next words.

Now that the Double Ninth Festival has just passed, there was a rain yesterday, and the autumn atmosphere is very strong. The temperature during the day is better. The dragon is on the ground, and in half a month it will be the Winter Clothes Festival. The court ladies are working overtime to make winter clothes, and Jiang Sui, who is afraid of the cold, puts on thick clothes early.

Even though he is afraid of the cold, he is still taking a nap under the half-open window, wrapping himself up like a ball, Wei Xun really can't understand his behavior.

Standing up and closing the window, Wei Xun pulled the blanket down from his face, "I have announced him into the palace, and I will interrogate him later, do you want to listen in?"

That must be!

Jiang Sui sat up awkwardly, "Who is that man?"

Wei Xun smiled slightly, "You'll know in a while."

Jiang Sui was even more curious, and when the eunuch came to report that the person had arrived, Wei Xun went out for interrogation. Jiang Sui stayed in the side hall for a while, then walked out lightly, and stood by the wall of the side door, Prick up your ears and listen to what is being said outside.

The side hall and the main hall are connected, and there is only a curtain in between. It is not too convenient to eavesdrop. After standing quietly for a while, the voice came from outside.

Wei Xun: "The evidence is in front of you, do you still want to argue?"

Another said: "The old minister has never thought of sophistry, and the old minister has a clear conscience."

Jiang Sui widened his eyes.

Isn't this the voice of the left phase? !

The person kneeling outside was indeed the prime minister on the left, but Wei Xun was not as surprised as Jiang Sui. In fact, he had already guessed it a long time ago, but there was no evidence, so he couldn't attack.

The reason why he was able to accurately point to the place where Jiang Sui was imprisoned in the four places was because Wei Xun suddenly remembered that Zuo Xiang's second son had been to that place a few months ago, and he had stayed there for nearly a month. time to leave.

Manchu civil and military, this is the only person who has anything to do with that place, but that person is also the son of the prime minister.

The cause was just a seemingly coincidental guess, but after thinking about it, I could recall a lot of things that could prove it, for example, Prime Minister Zuo didn't quarrel with Prime Minister Right recently, for example, during the period when Prime Minister Zuo was in charge of the country, he did some tricky things. Another example is that some time ago, Zuo Xiang, who was not worried about his granddaughter's marriage, suddenly married his two granddaughters, both of whom were married, and they were married far away.

One pile, one piece, has to make people suspicious.

What made Wei Xun even more unbelievable was that he didn't take pains to hide it, as if he didn't care about the incident, or he had too much blind trust in Wei Qian.

Zuo Xiang is an old minister, and he once taught him some ways of being a king. Wei Xun has always respected the two prime ministers in the court. Now that something like this happened, Wei Xun still didn't put him in prison, but brought him before him, wanting to know his reason.

In the main hall, Wei Xun and Prime Minister Zuo appeared, and only Qin Wangshan stood beside him like a background board. No one spoke, and the atmosphere in the hall became more and more dignified. Wei Xun suppressed his temper and asked again. Zuo Xiang, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly raised his head.

"Reason? There is only one reason for the old minister. The old minister does not want to see the century-old foundation of the Wei Dynasty destroyed by His Majesty. He does not want to see the people return to the dire situation. He does not want to see time go back. the old way!"

Qin Wangshan lowered his head, and praised in his heart, he is worthy of being the prime minister of the left, and he can still be so good at dying.

……

Wei Xun frowned, "What do you mean by that?"

"Your Majesty, don't ask the old minister, why don't you let the old minister ask your majesty, why didn't your majesty get married all these years?"

Wei Xun's face changed slightly.

"Why did you express your willingness to get married again and again, but why didn't you choose a suitable woman for so long?"

Jiang Sui listened and slowly opened his eyes wide.

"The former emperor was stupid and unreasonable, which caused great damage to my court. Your Majesty clearly knows this, but still ignores the demands of the courtiers and the world, and is obsessed with a man. It is simply a joke of the world!"

Wei Xun stood up suddenly, his face was gloomy and terrifying, staring at the left minister below, he sternly shouted: "Shut up!"

It's a pity that he spoke a bit late, and the excited Zuo Xiang had already continued, "And that person is still the regent of the dynasty. Does Your Majesty know what kind of situation you will push yourself by doing so? Since ancient times, there are not many examples like this. Your Majesty's trust in the Regent has reached the point of madness. The old minister just wants to help His Majesty because he sees a future that he doesn't want to see!"

Wei Xun stared blankly at the side hall on the other side, it was quiet and there was no movement, but he knew that Jiang Sui was behind that wall, and he must have heard Prime Minister Zuo's words.

At a loss, there was only one thing Wei Xun could do.

That is venting anger.

Angry from his heart, Wei Xun almost roared furiously: "Help me? The way you help me is to unite with Wei Qian? To put me to death? You betrayed your trust, and the fault is still on me!"

Prime Minister Zuo took a deep breath, "The old minister never thought of murdering His Majesty. Wei Qian approached the old minister and asked him to cooperate with him. The minister just wanted to see what he was going to do. This time the regent left Beijing, it was not the old minister and the old minister. Wei Qian prepared a plan in advance. Wei Qian has been sending people to monitor the Prince Regent's Mansion. Apart from cooperating with the old officials, he also has contacts with others. After the Prince Regent left, Wei Qian felt that this was an opportunity, so he sent people to follow. I don’t know, I learned the news later.”

Wei Xun was about to laugh angrily at his justification, "Do you think I'll let you go? I've heard the news but haven't reported it. I won't let you go too late!"

Probably because he felt that he was going to die sooner or later, Prime Minister Zuo slammed into pieces, "Wei Qian is arresting the regent, and it is the regent who is in danger. If your majesty didn't go his own way, how could he be in danger? Your majesty is disappointed, and the old minister is also disappointed. For the sake of the Regent, Your Majesty may not even take his life, even the world, so it can be seen that you are not such a benevolent monarch."

"As a king, how can you only love one person. If you insist on doing this and lose your life, maybe this is still a good thing for the world."

Qin Wangshan stood like a statue, his expression remained motionless, and the villain in his heart actually jumped up.

Zuo Xiang is worthy of being Zuo Xiang!He dared to say that when it came time, on this day in the coming year, he would definitely burn a stick of incense to Prime Minister Zuo, so that he could feel the warmth of the ground even when he was underground.

……

Jiang Sui had already turned around, leaning against the wall, silently lowering his eyes.

He and Qin Wangshan, including the kneeling left chancellor, were waiting for Wei Xun to speak, and after a long time, Wei Xun said gloomyly, saying each word: "What I hate the most is you who are full of benevolence and morality." Hypocrite, real villain."

Xiang Zuo raised his head.

"You demand me with standards that you can't even meet yourself. If I can't meet the perfect requirements in your heart, you will say that I am not a good emperor. If others say that you are too strict, you will still say that I am not a good emperor." I will refute that I am the emperor, so it should be so. You keep saying that you are for the world and the people, but the person who makes the people live a better life is not you, nor is it the regent who you want to kill with a knife. I am willing to be a good emperor because of the regent, but now you want to kill him, even if I want to save him, you still want to kill me."

"Qi Songshou, just like this, do you still think that you are living for the people of the world?"

Prime Minister Zuo was silent for a long time, then straightened his back, and said solemnly: "The old minister is not wrong."

Wei Xun looked at him pityingly, "You are already so stupid that I feel a little sympathetic to you."

Years of sage books have been read in the dog's stomach, but he didn't learn a word of true wisdom, only learned a pedantic head, and he came from a poor family, which should have made him more pragmatic and transparent, but unfortunately, he wanted to become a master , At the same time, he wants to do something earth-shattering and leave a name in history, but his ability cannot keep up with his ideas, and the final ending can only be lost in the dead end he built for himself.

"I originally wanted to kill you, but now, I've changed my mind." Wei Xun chuckled, "If you kill you, I'm afraid you will still think that you died for the sake of the community and that you are a loyal minister. Then I will spare your life." , let you live in humiliation, let you die even if you want to, let you see what this world will look like under the rule of Zhen and the regent."

"As for your children, of course they won't be able to survive. Just like what you said just now, a king cannot love only one person. Then I think, as a prime minister who loves the people like a son, you will not only love your own children. Right? Their death is a necessary sacrifice, and it’s a sacrifice you made on your own initiative. Even if they die, they won’t hate you, and they won’t regret having a father like you, don’t you think so?”

Zuo Xiang's face was ashen, but he still didn't say a word.

Wei Xun smiled happily, "The crime of rebellion should implicate the nine clans. I have a kind heart, and I left the other clans of the Qi family with orders, reduced them to slavery, exiled to the frontier, and were not allowed to leave for three generations. As for the descendants of Lord Qi , all adults will be beheaded, and those related to Wei Qian will be tortured first, asked for useful things, and then hanged. Men under the age of 16 will be sent to various fiefs to serve as miscellaneous eunuchs, and women under the age of 14 will be sent to church. Fang Si, as a low-level maid, married, the same."

"I have arranged this way, what does Lord Qi think?"

Wei Xun asked him with a smile like a flower, Zuo Xiang couldn't say a word, Qin Wangshan quietly raised his head and glanced, seeing Zuo Xiang's canthus tearing apart, he always felt that if he opened his mouth, he would immediately spit out a mouthful Blood.

Lowering the corner of his mouth, he gave Prime Minister Left a cold look, Wei Xun waved his hand, Qin Wangshan immediately understood, trotted out to call the guards, Wei Xun sat lazily on the dragon chair, and continued: "By the way, during the execution, I will Order someone to send Lord Qi to the execution ground, and see his relatives for the last time, and hope that Lord Qi will not be too sad when he sees his relatives die by the sword, after all, this is the sacrifice you made for the world."

Before being dragged away by the guards, Prime Minister Zuo finally regretted it. He shouted in a broken voice, asking Wei Xun to spare the lives of his family. Wei Xun watched the guards drag him away expressionlessly, and sat on the dragon chair. Xun was silent for a long time before suppressing the lingering anger in his heart.

He stood up and walked towards the side hall. The further he walked, the less angry he became and the more nervous he became.

Standing outside the curtain, he hesitated for a while before stepping over the threshold.

After entering, he turned his eyes and found that Jiang Sui was sitting with his eyes downcast, one hand on the table next to him, and the other on his knee.

His Majesty, who decided the life and death of others while talking and laughing, was tense like a pillar at this moment, not daring to move or speak, Jiang Sui's casual movement at this moment could make his heart stop directly.

Wei Xun couldn't bear this kind of suffering, he worked hard for a while, and opened his mouth and said, "Ah Sui..."

Jiang Sui raised his eyes, "When did it start?"

What he asked was when Wei Xun began to like him. He wanted to ask this question a long time ago, but he had no chance until the window paper was pierced. At this moment, the opportunity finally came, and Jiang Sui was the first to want to know That's it.However, Wei Xun didn't know this, he was stunned for a while, although he didn't react, he still answered honestly: "...I don't know."

Jiang Sui looked at him suspiciously.

Wei Xun began to stammer, "Really... I don't know, it seems that one day suddenly, that's it. I think about it again, but I can't remember which day it was."

Every day is the same, every day he likes Ah Sui so much, and wants to see Ah Sui so much, so he really can't tell when it started.

Jiang Sui looked at his expression, it changed after a while, it was very exciting, he couldn't help laughing, and then said: "Well, I see, you go out first, and let me stay alone for a while."

Although he said to drive him away, Jiang Sui's expression did not show any trace of anger, on the contrary, he seemed quite happy.

Wei Xun was stunned, but he didn't say anything else, and walked out obediently.

Zuo Xiang was dragged away, Qin Wangshan watched the guards take him away, and then came back, and found that His Majesty was in a daze, so he couldn't help walking over, and asked worriedly: "Your Majesty, are you alright?"

Wei Xun looked at him slowly: "Qin Wangshan."

Qin Wangshan, "Hey, Your Majesty, what are your orders?"

After a while of silence, Wei Xun didn't say anything, shut his mouth, and walked forward in a daze.

It's useless to say.

This feeling of being about to leave the order... As a eunuch, he would not understand.

The author has something to say: His Majesty is no longer a mother list, let's look at some people, alas

Writing Chasing Wife Crematorium, read it as Chasing Wife icu, I was only in critical condition for a while, and then resurrected immediately, I have to think about the advance payment, my hand may refuse to write Crematorium...
