A tree of peach blossoms pressing the prime minister

Chapter 175
In the current situation, Shen Zaiye questioned Chu Shan the more he would believe anything, and immediately walked towards Zhilan Palace.

I don't know when the writing on the wall was carved. It is crooked, but it is vaguely recognizable as the emperor's handwriting.It should have been engraved when the situation was critical, and there was only one sentence: "If something happens to me, the prince will be abolished, and the king of Nan will be made emperor."

"Abolish the crown prince?" Chu Shan frowned, "Isn't it a long time ago? When the crown prince conspired against him?"

"It should be." Shen Zaye nodded: "Now there are too many to do."

All the ministers were silent, and Chu Shan glared at Shen Zaiye angrily: "If the prime minister still doesn't hand over the will, then we can only take this as the edict and welcome the King of Nan to ascend the throne."

"How do you offer it?" Shen Zaiye raised his eyebrows: "Pry down this wall?"

"You!" Mei Fengchang couldn't bear it any longer, and said with a frown: "I thought the prime minister had the heart of being loyal to the emperor and serving the country, but I didn't expect to show my fox's tail so soon! The former emperor has passed away, the throne is hanging in the air, and the jade seal is in front of you again." Hand, what do you want to do if you don't establish a new emperor?"

How else can it be, there must be some unreasonable thoughts!

Everyone present felt like a bright mirror in their hearts, Chu Shan gritted his teeth, and immediately ordered: "Please invite Prime Minister Shen to the Sizong Mansion!"

"Who dares?" Nangong Yuan raised his sword and came over the crowd, leading the guards to protect Shen Zaiye: "The Taiwei and the Prime Minister are the same as the three princes, how can they have the power to imprison the Prime Minister?"

"Master Nangong." Chu Shan frowned: "You are the guard in this palace, and you want to help this traitor?"

"The Prime Minister didn't usurp the throne, and secondly, he didn't act recklessly, so why is he called a traitor?" Nangong Yuan said, "I feel that he is a good minister for the country and the people!"

Shen Zaiye acted like this, is it still called serving the country and the people?Both Chu Shan and Mei Fengchang laughed, and the two sides confronted each other, swords drawn.

There was inevitably a bloody storm in the palace, and Shen Zaiye ordered that Chu Shan and the others should not be killed, but Chu Shan and the others led someone to take his head!The two sides fought fiercely for a day and a night, causing blood to flow in the palace.

Everyone felt that it was over. Even if Shen Zaiye didn't want to usurp the throne, he might be forced to rebel now.When the situation becomes chaotic, people in the court choose side battles one after another, and if they start to fight, it will be a catastrophe for Wei!
However, at dawn, the palace gate was opened.

Southern King Mu Wuxia was dressed in a military uniform, his eyes were full of sternness, and he rode his horse and led his troops to Qianyuan Hall.

The two warring parties were dispersed by the soldiers, and Mu Wuxia immediately glared at Shen Zaiye in the morning light: "Prime Minister, why is this?!"

This question was hoarse and angry, and Shen Zaiye lowered his eyes.

Chu Shan was overjoyed, and hurried to Nanwang's horse, cupped his hands and said, "Fortunately, the prince came back in time! The late emperor passed away, and I ask Nanwang to succeed as soon as possible!"

"Please King Nan succeed to the throne as soon as possible!" The people behind Chu Shan knelt down, shouting loudly.

Mu Wuxia was stunned for a moment, looked at the white banner hanging above the eaves of Qianyuan Hall, and looked at Shen Zaye with red eyes: "Why did you do this?!"

Why don't you trust him and wait for him?His 2000 soldiers killed all the enemy bandits and surrendered more than [-] people in Zhao'an, with very little loss. It was a beautiful victory!If he asks his father in this way, his father will definitely do what he wants.Why...why did he face this scene when he came back? !

Why didn't you even say a word to him in advance? !

Shen Zaiye sighed softly and said, "There is no way to go, nothing to say."

Chu Shan and the others couldn't understand, they only thought that King Nan was asking the Prime Minister why he wanted to rebel, and they became more determined to support King Nan.

"There's no way out, nothing to say!" Mu Wuxia's throat twitched slightly: "After all, the prime minister doesn't regard this king as a human being."

Didn't really see him as an adult.

Shen Zaiye stopped talking, raised his hand to signal Nangongqin to take back his weapon, and the people behind him threw their swords on the ground one after another.Seeing this, Chu Shan immediately ordered Shen Zaiye to be taken into custody.

Mu Wuxia dismounted and watched him being taken away with a complicated expression, but still whispered something to the people behind him.The man took the order to go, Chu Shan didn't bother, and immediately led him to the Qianyuan Hall.

As soon as Nan Wang came back, the catastrophe disappeared without a trace.Da Wei is now the only one who can be the emperor. Although he is still young, he is also the best candidate for the throne.Chu Shan negotiated with the faction protecting the emperor, and at a critical moment, regardless of etiquette, the decree was first promulgated to be the emperor.

The last decree was taken back from Shen Zaiye, and it was indeed written that King Nan was made emperor.Everything is logical, and no one raised half a word of objection.

So after a day and night of blood baptism, Wei's palace ushered in a new monarch.As soon as the last emperor's decree was promulgated, the first thing for the new emperor to succeed to the throne was not to worship heaven and earth, but to deal with Shen Zaiye.

"The Taiwei wants to kill him?" Mu Wuxia looked at Chu Shan and shook his head: "Impossible, half of the Great Wei's country is in his hands."

"I'm really worried about being humble." Chu Shan frowned and said, "He's good at scheming and ambitious, if he doesn't get rid of it..."

"If nothing else, I won't be able to sit firmly on the throne." Mu Wuxia got up, looked down at the dragon robe he was wearing mockingly, and walked out: "You don't have to conflict with him again, what you should say, I'll make it clear."

No one in this world can kill Shen Zaiye. He has too many things in his hands and too many things in his heart. Whoever dares to kill him recklessly will definitely bring about a catastrophe that will overthrow the world.

That's probably why he's so confident.

Shen Zaye was locked in Sizong's mansion, and when he heard the sound of the door opening, he looked back.

"Your clothes are very suitable." He smiled.

Mu Wuxia couldn't laugh, and looked at him deeply and said, "The Prime Minister must have asked someone to prepare it early in the morning, so it fits like this. When I put on this robe, can the Prime Minister know how I feel?"

"You will blame my minister." Shen Zaye chuckled: "I made the dragon robe early in the morning, but I never mentioned it to you."

"Yes." Mu Wuxia narrowed his eyes: "In the prime minister's heart, am I so untrustworthy?"

It's not a question of trustworthiness.Shen Zaiye sighed, sat down beside him and said, "If I inform you in advance, would you agree?"

"will not."

"That's it." Shen Zaye looked at him and said, "I have never had the same political views as you, but time waits for no one. I think you will save a lot of trouble if you take this path."

Mu Wuxia looked back at him, slightly annoyed: "There are many shortcuts in the world, if the path of injustice can be walked so calmly, what is the difference between good and evil?"

Shen Zaiye pursed his lips, and lightly rubbed his index finger on the tip of his nose: "I have never thought that I am a righteous person, nor have I ever thought of walking the path of justice. In the history books thousands of years later, I should be included in the The rank of courtiers will be stigmatized for thousands of years."

"..." Mu Wuxia glared at him: "If you live your whole life, is it possible that you will end up with such an infamous fate?"

"I don't have big ambitions." Shen Zaiye said, "I don't want to be famous forever, I just want to finish what I have to do while I'm alive, what the Minister thinks. How the future generations will comment has nothing to do with the minister."

What about loyal ministers?So what about the courtiers?Just let the history books swipe their pens.People live for themselves, not for others.

Mu Wuxia gritted his teeth: "The prime minister is really great. In order to push me to the throne, he didn't hesitate to splash himself with mud. Did you ever ask me if I want such a result?"

Taking a deep look at him, Shen Zaiye said lovingly, "Could it be that you think that with your identity, there is still room for choice?"

The most noble people in the world are the people of the royal family, and the saddest thing is also the people of the royal family.

Eyes were a little red, Mu Wuxia looked at him, and said after a long time: "I remember I said that if I become emperor one day, I will definitely not reuse you."

"I don't mind." Shen Zaiye glanced at the sky outside, frowned and said, "But I hope His Majesty can let me go now."

The people in the mansion are afraid that they will not be able to hold on, right?

The reinforcements sent drove the Yulin Army out of Xiangfu, but Taohua and the others still only dared to stay in the darkroom of Linwu Academy.A group of women were exhausted physically and mentally, and all of them looked very pale and haggard.When I was about to fall asleep at night, there was a sudden sound of fighting outside, which scared everyone to lean on each other, for fear that the door would be broken anytime.

No one came to tell them the news, and they didn't know what was going on in the palace.Hearing that someone entered the mansion again, everyone naturally became nervous.

Tao Hua heard the sound of someone entering the study from outside, and subconsciously clenched the long sword in her hand.

Unlike the careless imperial guards, the man outside seemed to be extra careful. He found the mechanism shortly after entering, took two steps outside, stretched out his hand and twisted it, and the door that had protected them for two days slowly opened.

When the light came in from outside, everyone gasped and screamed!

Jiang Taohua also subconsciously followed Qingmoss and drew her sword to get up, but stepped on her own skirt, and fell to the side when she lost her balance!

"Master!" Qingmoss yelled, just as she was about to reach out her hand, but seeing the person coming, he grabbed her into his arms skillfully.

Taohua was stunned, grabbed the man and patted his waist, before he looked up, he cried out with a "wow": "Master!"

The smell in the dark room was extremely unpleasant, Shen Zaiye frowned in disgust, and backed out with her in his hand, bowing his head and saying, "You're still alive, it's your fault."

Only then did everyone see who it was, and they ran out one after another, surrounding him like a group of chicks waiting to be fed, crying and howling, and the noise was so loud in an instant.

"Shut up!"

Taohua closed her mouth pitifully, pointed at her own face, then at the dark room behind her, and then at the concubines around her, she put her head into his palm with tears in her eyes.

Not knowing whether to laugh or cry, Shen Zaiye patted her head and said in a low voice, "Tell them to shut up, and you have something to say."

"My concubine wants to say that you are back." She said: "Staying in the dark room is too uncomfortable, and everyone can hardly hold on. You have to comfort us."

The people next to him nodded one after another, and all of them stretched their necks to get closer to him.Shen Zaiye chuckled, glanced at the others, picked up Jiang Taohua and left: "You all have a strong smell, go back and wash up before you come to pay your respects, the prime minister's house is fine, no one will dare to break in again."

Gu Qingying squeezed the handkerchief unhappily, looked at Shen Zaye's back and said, "What's the use of introspection? The lady is still my favorite."

"After the catastrophe, are you still in the mood to be jealous?" Gu Huairou raised his foot and walked out: "Go back and see what's going on in your respective yards."

When she reminded her, a group of Yingying and Yanyan realized that their jewelry was still in the yard, screaming and scattered, and went back to see if there was anything missing.

For the first time, Taohua was willingly carried by Shen Zaiye, and even felt that it was good that he could carry herself like this.

"Is everything settled?"

"It's settled." Taking her to the bathtub in the backyard, Shen Zaiye ordered people to prepare hot water, and said: "The Southern King ascended the throne, and the court is still in chaos, but don't worry about it, someone will take care of it. After ten days , I’m afraid it’s the enthronement ceremony.”

So fast? !Taohua was taken aback: "You... have done it?"

Emperor Mingde was still a man in his prime, so there was no reason why he would die suddenly.

"If I don't do anything, can I still stand here and listen to you asking such nonsense?" Shen Zaiya snorted softly, and when the water was poured, he took her off his clothes and threw them into the pool like dumplings, and then started Take off your clothes.

Tao Hua was startled, and backed away again and again: "Master, did we escape from death just now, and it's so intense?"

Rolling his eyes towards the sky, Shen Zaye sank into the bath, and closed his eyes tiredly: "You think too much."

Who has the energy to do that now?He was very tired, and he just wanted to rely on someone to take a good rest, but he couldn't sleep at all with this bloody aura.

Tao Hua was slightly stunned, and swam to his side, stretched out her hand to touch his forehead: "It seems that the past few days have not been easy for Master, so I can rest assured."

Opening his eyes halfway, Shen Zaino looked at her quietly.

With a chill down his back, Taohua immediately turned serious and said: "Don't get me wrong, I don't mean that, what I mean is that it's really hard to live in the mansion these few days. Feeling a little happy for a moment.”

She can't bear all the crimes alone!It's not fair!

With a soft snort, Shen Zaiye raised his hand, wiped off the dust on her face little by little, and hugged her into his arms.

"Fortunately, you are smart."

If she really went to the palace, then he could only watch helplessly as Emperor Mingde ordered to attack Zhao.If she didn't take everyone into hiding to reduce his burden, then he wouldn't be able to perform the next good show.

It's really a blessing to have a smart woman behind it.

Tao Hua blinked, her long eyelashes swept over his chest, she put her arms around his waist and said, "It's also fortunate that the master did not let me down."

The autumn wind was cool, but the water in the pool was very warm. The two stayed quietly for a while, then cleaned up and went back to the main house.

The mansion was in a mess, gold, silver and jewels were lost in many courtyards, and there were loud wailings.Taohua and Gu Huairou were helping to make an inventory, preparing to make a list for Shen Zaiye to go to the Imperial Forest Army for an explanation, but someone stood at the door of Linwuyuan unexpectedly.
