"Father!" Min Ruoying knelt down in front of the emperor's bed, holding the bed with both hands, tears flashing in her eyes, "You, your body is fine, right?" My son was so worried. Da Chu, I can't do without you! ”

Listening to his son's words, Emperor Da Chu had mixed feelings, staring at the face in front of him that resembled his youth, and in the eyes of the other party, there was not the slightest hint of hypocrisy, that sad, anxious, and real existence.

But the emperor knew that the son in front of him was only afraid that he would die earlier, of course, after he determined his position.

"An Ruhai's investigation is over, this is his investigation report and the corresponding evidence, don't you want to take a look?" The emperor reached out and patted the thick report beside him, staring at Min Ruoying.

Min Ruoying frowned slightly, and reached out to get the stack of reports, but the emperor's hand was pressed on the report, and Min Ruoying's hand froze in the air, neither stretched nor shrunk.

"Ruoying, I want to ask you something." The emperor's eyes narrowed, staring at Min Ruoying, although his voice was soft, but in Min Ruoying's ears, it seemed to carry great pressure.

"Why do you have to kill Zuo Lixing?"

It was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, which shocked Min Ruoying's eyes. He looked at the emperor with his mouth open, shaking his head again and again, "No, no, no, how could I kill Zuo Shuai?" This, what's my business? ”

There was a crisp snap, and the old emperor was slapped heavily in the face.

"You think I'm a fool, aren't you?" The Emperor's voice was still low, as if he was trying to suppress his anger, and as if he was afraid that others would hear it.

"It's perfectly set up, you think so, don't you?" The old emperor sneered: "But you have added enough snakes. The destruction of the Western Frontier Army is enough to point the finger at your imperial brother, you shouldn't make this show in Beijing again, the confetti deliberately left in the register, killing people but deliberately leaving one person, the underwear on the murderer representing the Eastern Frontier Army, and Yang Yi, that master, these are all redundant, you know? ”

Min Ruoying's body shrank back slightly, and the whole person froze somewhere.

"From the beginning, I really thought that your royal brother did it, the purpose was to cut off your wings, so that this operation led by you ended in a big failure, so that you would be discredited and have no ability to compete with him again, but you should not do the latter things, you are insulting your father's intelligence!" The Emperor laughed.

"Or can you hide it from most people, but do you think you can hide it from An Ruhai? Can you hide it from Yang Yihe? You deliberately left those traces for An Ruhai to find out one by one, but who is An Ruhai? Do you know that during the arrest that night, An Ruhai had already arrived at Yang Yihe's door, but he didn't go in because he was hesitating. The emperor looked at Min Ruoying, whose face was like earth: "Yang Yihe is right, you are ruthless, but you don't have great wisdom, and the only little cleverness is used where it shouldn't be." ”

Min Ruoying's body shrank back a few more steps. Looking at the emperor's eyes, a wolf-like gaze was revealed.

"You want to kill me?" The Emperor sneered.

"My son doesn't dare, where does my son have such a rebellious heart?" Min Ruoying was sweating through her clothes, although the emperor was lying on the hospital bed, Min Ruoying suddenly found that she couldn't move at all, and her body seemed to be pressed with a thousand pounds of weight, and after a slight struggle, her bones made a rattle sound. Looking at the emperor, there was a look of horror in his eyes.

"Your Lao Tzu is too sick to die, but the tiger is not invincible, do you think that with your ninth-level skills, you can have a chance to succeed when I am seriously ill?" The emperor laughed, "Or, are you relying on the guy who came in with you and pretended to be a eunuch, he is Luo Ying, right?" ”

Min Ruoying's whole person almost fell to the ground, her hands were firmly propped on the ground, and the sound of blue bricks on the ground was continuous, and one by one became shattered.

"With this ruthlessness, it has a few similarities with your Lao Tzu." The Emperor sighed.

Outside the dormitory, Luo Ying, who was dressed as a eunuch, stood up straight with her stiff eyes at the moment when Min Ruoying was lying on the ground, and in her obedient eyes, she instantly showed a falcon-like gaze, and the whole person was a lot taller in an instant. He took a step forward.

The door of the dormitory creaked open, and an old man holding a sword walked out and stood in front of Luo Ying. Dressed in a white-washed cloth robe, his hair was draped over his shoulders at will, and the sword he was holding in his arms was also extremely ordinary, in the street armory shop in Shangjing, one or two silver could buy one, but this person just stood casually, Luo Ying just took a step, but he took it back.

"Brother Luo, long time no see." The old man holding the sword said with a smile.

"You're not dead yet?" Luo Ying gritted his teeth and said.

"Yes, you don't die when you're old." The old man holding the sword smiled, "But when did you swing your sword from the palace and become a eunuch?" Is it like for a man to be tired of trying not to be a man or a woman? ”

Luo Ying's face was red and white for a while, looking at the old man holding the sword, his throat grunted a few times, but he couldn't say a word. And what shocked him even more was what they were planning, but he was afraid that it had been exposed, looking at the door behind the old man holding the sword, the anxiety in his eyes was revealed.

"Why are you here?"

"I was beaten by the emperor in my early years, and I always wanted to get back to the field, but I never had a chance, and now that the emperor is leaving, I will give him a ride. It seems that I can't get this field back. The old man holding the sword smiled and said: "Old opponent, old friend, when he dies, he should naturally have an old friend by his side, but I didn't expect you to appear in front of me like this." ”

"What does Your Majesty mean?"

"I don't know, so let's wait!" The old man holding the sword smiled.

Luo Ying took a deep breath and nodded silently, seeing the old man holding the sword appear, he understood that the only thing they could do now was to look at the old emperor's attitude.

Inside the house, the pressure on Min Ruoying, who was struggling to support, suddenly ran out, and he was resisting the pressure with all his might, and the whole person actually bounced into the air, fortunately, the dormitory was high enough, and when he hit the roof, he finally resolved the pressure and fell back to the ground, but he fell to the ground on all fours, and he didn't dare to move.

"Now can you tell me, why do you have to kill Zuo Lixing?" The old emperor's voice sounded again.

"Because, because Zuo Shuai is a grandmaster, if he knows that I did it afterwards, he will definitely turn against me, I don't want to have such a grandmaster-level enemy, and I am more worried that he will hate me because of this and turn to another country." Min Ruoying said in a trembling voice: "There are not many grandmasters in the world, and a character like Zuo Shuai, who has the cultivation of a grandmaster himself, but is good at training soldiers and fighting, can either be friends or killed." ”

"It's really ruthless." The old emperor sighed and said, "I have a small number of people at the level of the Great Chu Grandmaster, but now there is one less. If you want to come to Western Qin and Eastern Qi, you must be very happy now. ”

"Father!" Min Ruoying said in a trembling voice, raised her head, and looked at the emperor with begging eyes.

"It's okay to be a left, although there are few grandmasters, but a new generation is better than the old, there will always be a new grandmaster in my Dachu, but Xi'er, do you even care about her life and death?" The old emperor's eyes showed sadness.

"The son sent someone to go, and in the agreement with the other party, it was also clearly stated that he wanted to ensure the safety of Xi'er."

"Sure? So now I ask you, where is Xi'er? The old emperor's voice became louder.

Min Ruoying lowered her head, unable to answer.

Looking at the ruthless son in front of him, the old emperor shook his head slightly, he didn't know whether his decision was good or bad for Da Chu, but did he have any other choice? If he doesn't want to go to Beijing to cause chaos, he must make a choice that is most in the interests of Da Chu.

"I have ordered An Ruhai to seal the Prince's East Palace." Staring at Min Ruoying, the old emperor said lightly.

Yes! Min Ruoying looked at the old emperor dumbfounded, with great ups and downs, great joys and sorrows, so that he didn't know how to face the person in front of him at all now.

"You have already controlled the forbidden army, and most of the internal guards have fallen to you, what An Ruhai can control now is only a small part of it, in this regard, I have to say, you have indeed done a good job. Announcing your entry into the palace today, I think you are also ready for both, right? As a last resort, you're going to die and fight to the death, right? ”

"Child, child......"

"You should know by now that not everything is in your calculations, is it? Even if you control the forbidden army and most of the internal guards, it is easy for me to kill you, and Luo Ying, whom you rely on, is now unable to move. The old emperor sighed: "Today, is the last lesson I will teach you, let you know that when victory is in sight, it is often a time of defeat, do you understand?" At all times, walk on thin ice. ”

"Son, boy wrote it down."

"Get up and sit down beside me." The old emperor patted the edge of the bed and said.
