Chapter 202: The Godly Front Holds the Victory (3)
"No!" Ye He struggled desperately, ignoring the sharp pain in his wrist, "Feng Zhangjing, I plead guilty! Everything was done by me, and it has nothing to do with him! Come on, I'm here with you!" You go to see that wicked woman!"

Feng Shen looked at Ye He, then at the man. "Brother, who are you?"

The man was startled, "What? You don't recognize me?"

Feng Shen just shook his head, when Ye He suddenly shouted at the man: "Xiao Aizi, what are you doing here with a rough envoy and eunuch? Hurry up and leave!"

The man frowned, "Little...Ai Zi?"

Ye He scolded: "It's you! I'll take care of everything, why do you need to show off? Go away! Go!"

Seeing Ye He defending this man everywhere, Feng Shen became more and more suspicious of his identity. "Brother, I advise you, it's better to obediently stand still!"

"I didn't intend to escape." The man said, walking forward slowly. "But please let Ye He go... I am the one the queen mother wants to punish, why bother to hurt another innocent life?"

Ye He cried: "Don't come here! Don't come here! I don't regret my death, you still have a great cause to do!"

"Great cause? Hehe... The prisoner of the ranks, even an old godly woman can't deal with it, so why talk about great cause and small cause?" The man shook his head and lamented, and kept stepping.

The man was powerless, he obviously didn't know martial arts, but Ye He was willing to sacrifice his life for it, presumably he must have a lot of background.Seeing him getting closer and closer, Feng Shen didn't have time to think about it, he threw away Ye He's wrist, and approached him suddenly, with five fingers strangling the man's throat.

"Bold! I...I'll fight you!" Ye He was startled and angry, and wanted to pounce on him, but he was afraid that Feng Shen would hurt the man, so he hesitated.

The man was restrained by Feng Shen, but his expression remained the same as usual. "Longyou Shoal was attacked by shrimps, Huluo Pingyang was bullied by dogs... Alas, time and fate, Ye He, you don't have to make a fuss, step back..."

Seeing that the man is wavy, but he still has extraordinary bearing in his speech and demeanor.Feng Shen loosened his fingers slightly, and asked again: "Who is Xiongtai?"

The man replied indifferently: "Since you broke into Yingtai, don't you know that a down-and-out emperor is imprisoned here?"

"Yingtai?!" Feng Shen trembled all over his body, "This is Yingtai? Ah! Could it be... Could it be that you are the current emperor?!"

As soon as the man nodded his head, Feng Shen hurriedly withdrew his hands and knelt down. "This humble minister has no eyes and no pearls. If he doesn't know the emperor is coming, he deserves death!"

Seeing Feng Shen's move at first, not only Emperor Guangxu was stunned, but even Ye He was unexpected. "Feng, what kind of trick do you want to play? Don't you want to turn to your wicked master?"

Feng Shen put his heart to one side, and said, "What's wrong with Miss Ye? Man said that she can't do the job. Even if I am smashed to pieces, I will swear to protect the Holy Zhou Quan!"

Ye He was dubious, "You say it beautifully, but who knows what kind of idea you have in mind?"

Feng Shen didn't answer, he kowtowed to Guangxu again, and stretched out five fingers of his right hand. "These fingers offended the emperor's dragon body, so I will break them off!"

After saying that, Feng Shen had pinched the five fingers of his right hand with his left palm, he was about to bend down, but he felt a tightness on his wrist, when he looked up, he saw that his left hand was firmly held by Guangxu. "Your majesty, this is..."

Guangxu said: "I have believed that you are loyal, don't mutilate your own limbs anymore! Get up and speak."

"Yes," Feng Shen got up and thanked, "I respectfully follow the holy edict!"

"Haha", Ye He turned his worries into joy, and came up to pat Feng Shen on the shoulder. "Let me just say, how could someone as outstanding as Feng Zhangjing be the minion of that wicked woman? Your majesty, don't you think so?"

Guangxu snorted: "You don't have a hippie smile on your face, what did you call me just now? Little Aizi?"

Ye He was stunned, and quickly made amends and said: "Your maidservant deserves to die! At that time, I was really helpless, and I just wanted to let the emperor out of danger... If the emperor is not relieved, I will punish the servant girl."

"You protect the Lord with all your heart, how could I not know?" Guangxu sighed, "Oh, your family is loyal, and I don't know when I can repay this kindness!"

Ye He said sadly: "It is our duty to be loyal to the emperor, please don't ask the emperor to repay you..."

Guangxu nodded, and said to Feng Shen, "Your surname is Feng?"

"Exactly," Feng Shen replied, "My humble surname is Feng, and the single name is 'Shen'."

Guangxu said: "I am trapped in Yingtai now, and I am no different from the deposed emperor. You follow the queen mother and have a bright future, but now you are loyal to me...Aren't you afraid of regretting it?"

Feng Shen said solemnly: "Coveting wealth and glory is the behavior of a villain. A man is alive, but he is loyal and righteous. As a minister, if he can't share the worries of the king and solve the problems of the people, what kind of face will he stand in this world?"

Guangxu said again: "But if you want to protect me, you must offend the Queen Mother. If you offend the Queen Mother, you will be killed!"

"Death is death, why be afraid?" Feng Shen said solemnly, "It is a blessing for all the people to support and protect a virtuous king for the common people in the world! I would rather spill this blood than live in an ignoble existence! "

"Okay! Well said!" Guangxu held Feng Shen's hands tightly and said gratefully, "Brother Feng, I will never forget your sincere friendship!"

Feng Shen hurriedly said: "How can a lowly official be so respectful of the word 'brother'? Your Majesty must never be so commensurate again!"

Guangxu waved his hand and said: "Then what's wrong? You and I hit it off right away, why don't you just make a vow?"

Where is Feng Shen willing to agree?Gu Ci said: "The king is the king, and the minister is the minister. This is why we worship each other. Please don't mention it again, Your Majesty!"

Guangxu said: "Brother Feng, why should those who have the world in their hearts stick to small details? As far as nature is concerned, why do you care about those secular etiquette?"

Seeing that the two were arguing for one another, Ye He said anxiously: "Oh, your majesty, Feng Zhangjing, even if you really want to be sworn brothers, you won't be here for a while, right?"

"That's right, look at my brain!" Guangxu pointed at Shu Fangrun, where Ye He lived, and said, "Outside is not a place to talk, let's go inside and talk!"

This place where the former emperors used to collect calligraphy and painting for elegant play, now removes the rows of bookcases and shelves, and there are not many rare treasures here.Ye He separated a curtain on the west side of the room, and randomly set up some beds, tables and stools, which can be regarded as a living place.

After entering the room, Feng Shen helped Guangxu to sit on a chair in the middle, then stepped back a few steps, knelt down three times and kowtowed nine times, performing the royal courtesies.

The corners of Guangxu's eyes were moist, and his body trembled slightly. "To this day, I still feel more or less like an emperor... Sigh, I don't have the confidence to say 'Zhen'..."

Feng Shendao: "The son of heaven is extremely precious, and the emperor is the sole respecter. It is a matter of course. Why should the emperor have any worries?"

"Extremely!" Guangxu said joyfully, "As expected, I saw the right person, brother Feng, you should get back on your feet quickly."

Feng Shen knelt down, "The emperor's holy family is rich, and my minister is flattered, but as for the matter of getting married, I dare not presume even if I die!"

Guangxu said: "Brother Feng, since you know that I am the king, you should also know that the king has no jokes. The emperor speaks his word, and what he says is like water poured out. How can he take it back? Well, Brother Feng doesn't have to say goodbye. , don’t make me unhappy.”

Seeing what Guangxu said, Feng Shen had no choice but to stand up again. "Thank you Lord Long En."

Guangxu pointed to a stool beside him, and said, "Brother Feng, you sit here so that we can have a knee-to-neck conversation with me. Oh, Ye He, go and make a pot of tea."

"Yes." Ye He agreed, and turned to prepare tea.

Since Ye He entered the palace, Guangxu has always been depressed, occasionally said a few words, but his face was indifferent.Seeing him chatting and laughing with Feng Shen now, Ye He was so happy that he couldn't help crying, she quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, brewed the fragrant tea and presented it.

Guangxu was very interested, he pulled Feng Shen to ask questions, and when he heard that Feng Shen was the best friend of King Su, he was even more delighted. "Okay, there are young talents like Brother Feng here, and there are important ministers like Lord Su outside, so why should I worry about not having a chance to turn around?"

Feng Shenxun said: "The mediocrity of a mediocre official, how can it compare to Prince Su's emergency?"

Guangxu said: "It is needless to say that King Su Kuang helped the clan and was loyal. You and other heroes are also the pillars of the country! I think back in the past, when I first held the great treasure, I wanted to change the poor and weak situation of my Qing Dynasty. Go, ever since, Kang Youwei, Tan Sitong, Lin Xu, Yang Rui... so many people with lofty ideals, willing to take strange risks to assist me in the reform and innovation. Unexpectedly, when the imperial edict of "Ming Ding Guo Shi" was promulgated, all the ugliness of the government and the public were in an uproar. When discussing countermeasures with Zhongliang, the traitor Yuan Shikai turned to inform. As a result, the old godly woman Cixi took the opportunity to coup, and then completely imprisoned me! Alas! What a pity, sad, hateful! It's a pity that I paid for all my ambitions Dongliu! It's a pity that those virtuous and talented people sacrificed their lives and emigrated! It's a shame that this great country has fallen into the hands of that poisonous woman!"

"Your majesty don't need to lament," Feng Shen said loudly, with his chest heaving, "The old empress has disregarded the legacy of her ancestors and acted perversely. Even if she has power in the government, she can't escape the mouth of the world!"

"That's right!" Guangxu said angrily, "The old godmother's misfortune caused chaos in the court, which really makes people and gods angry! Brother Feng, I have also thought about it. Right now, she is covering the sky with only one hand, and if I oppose her clearly, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg. She is young, but she is dying, so I pretended to be ill, so as to make her careless! Hmph, what's the point of enduring humiliation? If I endure it for a few more years, it will consume her to death!"

The more Guangxu said, the brighter his eyes became, and there seemed to be two flames burning in his eyes.
