At the beginning, I gave up my military power with a cup of wine, and I ascended the throne

Chapter 464: The King of Shu Enters the Palace at Night

Weiyang Palace.

The emperor has not slept yet and is reading memorials.

"His Majesty."

Gao Qian walked in.

"What's up?

He didn't even look up.

"The King of Shu is outside the palace gate and wants to see you."

"See me?"

The emperor raised his head and asked: "Why did your uncle come to the palace instead of staying at home?"

"do not know."

Gao Qian shook his head: "The soldier who came to report didn't say anything."

"Xuan."

The emperor spoke.

"promise."

Gao Qian left quickly, and soon a young eunuch from the palace led the King of Shu to the outside of the Weiyang Palace.

"His Majesty."

Before the person arrived, he was already in tears and snot.

There was an unbearable look of disdain in the emperor's eyes, but he had no choice but to stand up from the dragon throne due to etiquette, quickly walked down the stage to the palace door, and helped the King of Shu in.

"Uncle Wang, why are you crying like that? But you have accepted the grievance."

he asked with a frown.

"His Majesty."

"Someone is insulting my royal family."

The King of Shu wiped the saliva from his face and choked up, "Does Your Majesty care about this?"

"Humph."

"I want to see who is so bold."

The emperor's face turned pale: "You dare to humiliate my royal bloodline, uncle, please don't shed tears, I will definitely support justice for you."

"Prince Shu, you are old too. If you have something to say, just say it. Don't cry like that."

Gao Qian said, "Your Majesty is here, so you go first."

"Your Majesty, it was that bastard Xiao Han."

The King of Shu said: "Today, in Zuixian Tower, let my son, your Majesty's younger brother, kneel down to him in public."

As soon as they heard Xiao Han's name, everyone's expressions in the hall changed slightly.

The emperor snorted coldly: "This Xiao Han is so brave."

"His Majesty."

Gao Qian hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over, and the emperor had to show his anger at this time.

Otherwise, it would chill the King of Shu and all the members of the royal family, but he couldn't really punish Xiao Han.

"What does he want to do?"

The emperor was furious.

"Your Majesty, why don't you listen to the King of Shu's account of what happened first? Although the King of Xiliang is arrogant and domineering, he is not the kind of person who would take the initiative to cause trouble."

"Gao Qian."

The King of Shu was anxious: "You are eating the salary of our royal family."

Then he collapsed on the ground and said in pain, "I had a son in my old age, and I want to treasure him. My son went to Zuixianfang to play today, and just because of a private room, he offended Xiao Han, and he asked my son to kneel down."

"His Majesty."

The King of Shu burst into tears: "Xiao Han is Ning Xi's consort, and Ning Xi still calls my useless son uncle."

"This bastard Xiao Han is clearly humiliating our royal family and even slapping your Majesty in the face."

"This is such a great humiliation, Your Majesty, please seek justice for me."

The emperor said nothing, his face turned pale.

Gao Qian said, "Your Majesty, this matter still needs to be investigated in detail. The reputation of the Prince of Shu in the capital has never been very good. There may be other hidden reasons."

"Gao Qian, how dare you speak for Xiao Han, that bastard."

The King of Shu was furious, pointing at Gao Qian and cursing, "Even if my son has committed a grave fault, he can only be punished by Your Majesty, let alone kneeling down to a junior like Xiao Han."

"You are a traitorous eunuch."

Little did they know that Gao Qian seemed to be speaking for Xiao Han, but in fact he was trying to give the emperor a way out.

The King of Shu was the one who threatened the emperor.

As expected, upon hearing the King of Shu's curse, the emperor shouted, "Uncle Wang, be careful with your words. I have also heard of the reputation of the Prince of Shu in the capital."

With just one sentence, the King of Shu was stunned.

"Report."

"The Ministry of Justice urgently issued a notice."

Another young eunuch came to the Weiyang Palace. "What's the matter?"

Gao Qian asked.

"Someone from the Xiliang Palace just now reported to the Ministry of Justice that the Xiliang King was assassinated on Zhuque Street."

"how?"

Assassinate
Another assassination?

The emperor asked hurriedly.

"The King of Xiliang is safe and sound, and has been executed."

The eunuch replied.

Who in the world can assassinate Xiao Han?

What he was afraid of was that the other party would use this as an excuse to cause trouble for him.

Xiao Han is now a living Bodhisattva. In the capital, he cannot be beaten or scolded, and must be coaxed with kind words.

But the King of Shu came up to cause trouble.

"Suzaku Street."

The emperor muttered to himself, then suddenly turned his gaze towards the King of Shu.

The old bastard didn't quite understand what was going on at first, but then he thought, if the blame for the assassination fell on his head, wouldn't that be terrible luck?

He quickly denied: "Your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with me."

"Does it really have nothing to do with Uncle Wang?"

The emperor emphasized his tone.

"Prince Xiliang left Zuixianfang just as he was being assassinated on Suzaku Street."

"His Majesty."

The King of Shu turned pale and cried, "You have to believe me, it was not me who did it."

"Even if I had a hundred guts, I wouldn't dare to find someone to assassinate the King of Xiliang."

As soon as these words were spoken, the emperor became furious. If the King of Shu dared to admit that he had sent someone to assassinate him.

He was still happy in his heart that there were such brave people in the royal family, but now it seems that they are all a bunch of good-for-nothings.

"Go down."

He waved his hand and said, "I am a little tired. Uncle Wang, please don't mention the prince's affairs anymore."

"As for the identity of the assassin, I will let the Ministry of Justice continue to investigate."

"It's best if it has nothing to do with Uncle Wang."

He came in anger and left in fear. This was the portrait of the King of Shu. He left the palace trembling, got on the carriage, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Go, go home."

The King of Shu spoke.

Inside Weiyang Palace.

The emperor leaned on the dragon throne, rubbing his aching brow, while Gao Qian stood below, supporting his head.

"Although the little bastard from the Shu King's family is a bit of a jerk, he is of royal blood after all."

for a long time.

The emperor opened his eyes, and his tone was mixed with a bit of majesty, "Xiao Han is going too far."

"Has the assassin's identity been discovered?"

"Found out."

Gao Qian said: "Duan Wuya."

"It almost ruined my plan."

The emperor used his five fingers to exert force, as if he wanted to crush the dragon head on the dragon throne.

"Your Majesty, how about we just leave the assassination case alone?"

Gao Qian said: "This is a secret reminder to the King of Xiliang, telling him not to be too arrogant."

"Ah."

The emperor nodded.

Not to mention the palace.

Let’s just talk about the Xiliang Palace.

The lights were on in the room. Xiao Han was sitting on a chair, drinking tea leisurely while checking the account book.

Late at night,
The snowstorm swelled.

"Your Majesty, the carriage from Zuixianfang has arrived."

A guard reported.

"Let her in."

Xiao Han said without raising his head. The cold wind was howling and the candlelight on the table was flickering. After a while, the guards led the gorgeously dressed Dongfang Bai in.

The hem of her skirt was very low, with colorful ribbons flying everywhere. Her carefully made-up face was extremely charming. The long skirt clung to her body, outlining her perfect curves, especially making the mountains look even more majestic.

She just stood under the eaves in front of the door, with heavy snow and the dark night behind her, and surging hot air in front of her, with the faint light of the candle shining on her body.
