Yishui Hall is even more deserted today, the master of it went to the imperial study room across a moat from here, in terms of identity, this is the most noble guest in the imperial study for ten years, everyone knows that Chen Maoyu has been in power for more than ten years, the imperial study is really just a study, and the most come is the great eunuch Huang Chengen.

"After so long, you finally want to come and see me. Chen Maoyu put down the music in his hand and glanced at Huang Chengen, and the other party immediately withdrew from the door in understanding and closed the door.

"You don't want me to stay in that temple, and it's better that no one bothers me. Chen Maochuan found a place to sit down.

Chen Maoyu just smiled, there was obviously brotherhood in his eyes, but why did that affection intermittently, "The old lady has gone to look for you, and the people from the Zhengnan General's Mansion have also been in contact with you, even the other two princes have also ventilated to you once or twice! ”

These words froze the already gloomy atmosphere to the extreme, and only the sound of the two of them breathing was left, Chen Maochuan laughed, and the two looked at each other intently, laughing for a long time, and there were no other words, which made the big eunuch Huang Chengen outside the door feel creepy.

"Do you know why I asked you to go to Yishui Temple?"

"Because it's the closest to your study, you can see what you want to see and what you don't want to see. Chen Maochuan stood up, stretched out his hand and stroked the bookshelves on both sides, there are countless books on it, all say that the Sanwen Hall of the school covers all the history of the Northern Wei Dynasty in the past 170 years, in fact, there are still 50 years missing, less than the 45 years of the Northern Wei Dynasty Gaozu in power, less than the last five years of Emperor Wenmu, that is, from the tenth year of Yuan Tong to the third year of Tianxing, there is an ancient scroll stored in the quaint wooden box in the imperial study, but its content has been scattered, but it is certain that this history must still be known.

"Reluctantly!" Chen Maoyu nodded, "When we were displaced, when we passed through Yishui County, you were hungry, you said that if you can eat enough in the future and have a house with tiles to live in, you can not care about anything, you just want to live, do you remember?"

Chen Maochuan didn't speak, and after looking at the other party for a long time, he slowly shook his head and said, "It's too small, who remembers what he said at that time." ”

"Yes! Maybe I was too young at that time, so I remembered a lot of things, but even so, I was still willing to treat you as a brother sincerely, but why did you force me, Li Jucheng wanted you to step on my shoulders and go up, Li Zaixiao was willing to leave the surname Li who had been on the top for twenty years for you, why, I was not as good as you, I let you go to Cangzhou, and drove you away, why do you want to come back, do you really think I dare not kill you?" Chen Maoyu used me on Chen Maochuan for the first time, and he wanted to tell the other party who was the true son of heaven and who was the one who was worthy of this splendid mountain and river.

"Brother Huang, you are so excited, I have never said anything, and I have never done anything, what I have been doing is just wanting to live. Chen Maoyu said calmly, stopping in front of the wooden box, obviously within reach, but he was afraid, afraid of the skeleton that turned into wind and sand in the secret realm, afraid of the content of the letter.

"Why did you let Li Zaixin go to Cangzhou to check on me? You should know that Chang Ming died innocently. ”

Chen Maoyu also realized that he was out of shape, adjusted the dragon robe on his body, straightened the Confucian seat again, threw a few folds in front of him to the other party, and said calmly: " These are the excerpts played by those old ministers, all of them are impeached by Chang Ming, but no one mentioned the idea, since the ancestors didn't dare to do it, let me come, this Kyushu should change its name, as for what Li Zaixin still wants to check, that is his own business, but before leaving, he had been to Li Zaizhong's house, Li Zaixiao can treat the Li character on the top of his head as nothing, but some people are unwilling. ”

"You have to move Uncle Thirteen. Chen Maochuan drank coldly, and the hideousness hidden under the flesh was finally revealed.

"I don't want to kill him, I want him to take back Fengjiang and Liangzhou for me, and I want him to take the whole world for me. Chen Maoyu used the word "I for the second time", not only the people of Pingjing, but even the civil and military forces in the court felt that he could be said to be the most humble emperor in the history of the Northern Wei Dynasty, but the word humility should never be used to praise the existence of ten thousand people, otherwise humility will become weakness, and a weak emperor should be replaced.

"I'm not going to let him die. Chen Maochuan said firmly.

Chen Maoyu chuckled and shook his head, he felt that he had won, won in his name that was more suitable for a lonely family, "What can some old immortals do, you have to rise up, Li Zaixiao must die, but Li Jucheng is not dead, I am still the emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty." ”

"The subordinate brother retired. Chen Maochuan suddenly retreated.

"Won't you ask Su Wen?" Chen Maoyu said suddenly.

Chen Maochuan's backward steps stopped, and he raised his head and asked, "What does the imperial brother think?"

"Su Wen can be used, you can't kill, you can't get close, as far as he is concerned, we are nothing, but unfortunately many people can't see through it, because of this, if you push him to me, then I naturally have to make good use of him. ”

Chen Maochuan waved his hand, and at the moment of exiting the imperial study, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a meaningful smile, "Who is the one who can't see through, since the imperial brother shouldn't sit in that position, you should step down." ”

Back in the Yishui Palace, no one greeted him, and there was no palace maid to serve left and right, as if an empty hall was dead and quiet, and one person was waiting in the hall for a long time.

"You're here. Chen Maochuan slowly walked up to the high seat, changed into the python robe on his body, and wore a plain white robe, which was long and mopped the floor.

"I didn't kill anyone, am I sincere enough?" said King Equality, fiddling with the wine glass on the table, and the black smoke that followed froze the water and wine into ice.

Chen Maochuan sat at the table unmoved, and walked back to the Yishui Hall from the imperial study, he walked more and more relaxed, and he was relieved to finally make up his mind, and at that moment he faded away from all his youth, "What is the relationship between Li Zaixin and Yin Cao." ”

"It's complicated to say, you just need to understand that he is not the same as the yin, and the yin is not the same as he is. The King of Equality said softly.

"Really, how do I believe you? Chen Maochuan looked at the absent-minded Yin Cao Monarch, without the slightest fear, compared to the ignorance when he was in the Cangzhou Restaurant, now he knows more, and the more he knows, the less afraid he is.

King Ping put down his wine glass and looked at the young man on the high seat, his face with a few more wrinkles, "Isn't that letter enough?"

"What do you want, if you don't know this, how do I know what you say can be believed and what you can't. ”

"Haha, little guy, you are the first person who dares to talk to me like this, why, a ninety-five position is not satisfied, there are some things that you mortals can know. ”

"But don't you still have to rely on me as a mortal at this moment?" Chen Maochuan said bluntly, picking up the wine glass on the table, but the wine turned into a piece of ice before it touched his lips.

"What does that mean there is no need to talk about it?" Chen Maochuan looked directly at the King of Equality, whose expression had changed.

After a while, the ice melted, Chen Maochuan drank the wine in the cup, and the coldness went down his throat and into his spleen, rippling for a week, without his need to drive spiritual power, the chill spread down his tail vertebrae into the heavens and the earth.

"Haha, from the first time I saw you kid, I knew that you couldn't hold back a good fart, since you want to talk, then I'll ask you first, when you were in Cangzhou, you really didn't have the idea of killing Su Wen with a sword. "Words that pierce the heart come out of the mouth of the King of Equality, and the words of nonsense deceive people's hearts, and they can deceive people, but they cannot deceive ghosts.

Chen Maochuan's hand holding the wine glass was quietly clenched, although his expression was still firm, but his feet that fell under the table involuntarily retracted, and after a pause, he finally said, "Yes." ”

"Sure enough, it's good that you didn't have the intention to kill, otherwise you would have died. The King of Equality seemed to be cheerful as if he knew the other man's answer.

"Therefore, it is he that you want. ”

"It's nice to talk to smart people. King Ping laughed, after the Appreciation Division, whether it was to force Chen Maochuan to make a move, or to lead Xu Yongle out of reincarnation, even if it was to change the surname Su who returned to Ling Tiangong to the surname Lu without authorization, what they were waiting for was just a person who changed his life, Mo Xiuyuan drew an empty cake and deceived them for five hundred years, and then Mo Du used the same empty cake to deceive them for three hundred years, so this time, they decided to come by themselves.

Chen Maochuan paused for a moment and asked softly, "If I had chosen to use his life to save Uncle Thirteen at that time, what would have happened." ”

"In any case, Li Zaixiao will definitely die, he is the same as Li Jucheng as the turner of this life, their end is the starting point of this life, the general trend, no one can stop it, you can only obey the destiny of heaven. King Ping said indifferently, like a spectator who stayed out of the matter, and had long been accustomed to the history performed by others.

"Can't I change it? How long do I have to wait? Chen Maochuan, who slowly closed his eyes, pushed down the copper cup that had been refilled with wine, and the wine spilled all over the table.

The King of Equality said, "Three years at the shortest, five years at the most." ”

"I've waited for seven years, and three or five years is nothing. Chen Maochuan waved his sleeves, got up and walked towards the inner hall.

Since that day, the Yishui Temple has been closed.

Half a month after Li Zaixin went to Cangzhou, a person entered Beijing from Cangzhou, and Zhou Xuqing, the chief thinker under the seat of Chang Ming, the former political envoy, personally greeted him in the post station outside Beijing.

"Brother, this has been a farewell for ten years, and it has been hard. The sick Zhou Budo smiled miserably.

Zhou Xuqing's lupine scarf came from a desolate place, with more roughness that is rare for ordinary Confucian students, and said loudly: "Yes! Ten years, Xuqing does not seek merit but no fault." ”

On the same day, 10,000 years of gold and silver sailed into Zhou's house, and Chang Ming's crime included another piece of embezzling border trade silver, three cups of water in exchange for ten percent of gold and silver, how Chang Ming wanted to get his last value to the imperial court, it was actually to enrich Chen Maoyu's private treasury.
