Back Off, Let Me Come

What?

His Highness Fifth Prince committed suicide last night?

This news made the courtiers present who had interests or blood relations with the Fifth Young Master turn pale, and something exploded in their minds. Fortunately, a colleague on the other side helped him, otherwise he would have lost his temper: "May I ask, what happened last night? His Majesty the Fifth Highness was ordered by the king to supervise the country. Jane is in the heart of the king, and he has a reputation for benevolence and virtue. How could he make such a big mistake? ?”

Even though everyone present knew what was going on, some questions still had to be asked clearly.

The Fifth Young Master led his troops to attack the palace, but he was probably driven to the wall by the Zen edict, and had no choice but to take a desperate risk last night. The incident happened so suddenly that the Fifth Young Master didn't even have time to mobilize all his forces. At least some of the Five Young Masters present did not know.

Everyone is dead, it's too late to say anything now.

They have to find a way to remove themselves.

Find out who tricked the Fifth Young Master.

If the ministers observe carefully, they will find that the fourth child looks a little haggard and not as energetic as before. The fourth child seemed embarrassed by this question, and after a while he sighed and told the truth: "What the fifth brother did is really a scandal to the family... He, he not only led his troops to threaten the inner court last night, but also forced the youngest and his biological mother to death..."

This news is even more exciting!

Some courtiers were well-informed and knew that the imperial edict on the Zen position was written for the youngest. However, within a day, the youngest was actually killed by the anxious Lao Wu. Mentioning this sad incident, the fourth son's heartbroken man's tears rolled down like broken pearls: "Everything depends on my brother, delay the time, otherwise, otherwise I will be able to save Yao'er, all ministers, it's me It’s useless…”

The fourth child's appearance resembled that of Mi's, not the rough and heroic appearance of a reckless man, but he was tall, and for such a big man to shed tears and blame himself in public, even if it was for show, the onlookers couldn't bear to be moved.

The fourth child cried sincerely for a long time. His red eyes were purer than those of a rabbit. As he cried and choked, he told the general story intermittently.

The youngest's body was found in a well.

When the person was fished out, there was not only the youngest in the well, but also the wet nurse who took care of the youngest. This loyal woman was stabbed in the back with multiple swords but still protected her youngest. Finally, a sword pierced her heart. The sharp sword penetrated her heart and the youngest's neck.

In addition to the youngest, the melee last night also affected the palaces in the inner court near the outer court. The collapsed buildings took away hundreds of innocent people, most of whom were servants and maids. Two concubines were killed, and three years old were killed by beams in the side hall. The younger siblings and the others were all slightly injured.

As for the identity of his concubines, he did not elaborate.

The fourth child cried very sadly.

That night, he lost five of his closest relatives.

No matter how much Wu Xian lived, he could not keep up with the speed of death. One-tenth of his children were killed that night.

At this time, the actors arranged by Laosi started to support the audience.

The content is nothing more than a crusade against the fifth prince for losing his conscience, killing his hands and feet, exhausting his concubine to death, and being unfilial and disloyal! This bitch died well! If he doesn't die, the king will kill him if he finds out!

The ministers are all old foxes, and no one said a word when they heard it!

Well, it’s hard for them to say this.

Isn't this the tradition of the old Wu family to be unfilial and disloyal?

Like father, like son. After Lao Wu has done so many things, it can only be said that the son inherited his father's legacy. This son is like his father!

If they scolded Lao Wu, they also scolded Wu Xian in disguise.

Furthermore, is the culprit really Lao Wu?

None of them have experienced it personally, so they don’t know what happened in the inner court last night! Was Lao Wu alone responsible for these things? Or was it someone else's fault that made him take the blame? There was no news from the inner court! There may be something hidden!

As an old fox, you will know something fishy when you smell it.

To find out who did something, don’t just look at the so-called personal and physical evidence, but also look at who benefited the most! Obviously, the biggest beneficiaries so far are Lao Si and Mi! What this mother and son said is unbelievable! Therefore, the ministers who had no interest in this matter chose to remain silent and quietly observe the progress of the situation.

The Fifth Young Master and his party obviously don’t believe what the Fourth Young Master said.

The minister said: "I'm afraid someone is framing me!"

When he said this, he looked at Lao Si with some meaning.

The fourth child didn't feel guilty or ashamed about this, he was just angry! Angry at being framed: "What do you mean?"

The minister said seriously: "Fourth Young Master dares to say that he is innocent?"

The fourth child was so angry that he clenched his fists and tried his best to suppress his arrogance: "Brotherhood is so despised in your opinion? Are you going to ruthlessly murder five younger siblings for the sake of the shaky family fortune? If you say you can, I will admit it. So what about this basin of dirty water?”

The official was choked until his face turned green and white.

"Fourth Young Master is acting nonsense!"

"Aren't you just talking empty-handed and falsely accusing people of their innocence?" The fourth child looked around and saw that everyone's expressions had not improved much. He was heartbroken and pointed his sword to the sky, "I know what you are thinking. If you didn't bother to pay attention to it in the past, it's just now. The country is in turmoil, and we urgently need the unity of the whole country! I swear by my cultivation - if I really kill any of my siblings with my own hands, I will be punished by heaven and earth!"

Lao Si deliberately emphasized the pronunciation of the word "personally".

All the ministers were stunned.

The outside of the hall is as green as water.

The breeze blows on my face, nothing unusual.

The fourth child's oath has indeed dispelled many people's suspicions.

This court meeting was originally intended to confirm the new king, but the youngest named by Wu Xian was killed by Lao Wu, and Lao Wu, who had a top family status, also died, so now he had to choose another person. A country cannot live without a king for a day! They hope to settle it as soon as possible.

It's uncertain now. When the news of the palace change reaches Shen Tang's ears, who knows if this woman will take Wu Xian hostage and create a heir who is only a few months old. There have been two palace changes this year, and Wu Xian has lost seven children, and he cannot withstand the third one.

Shen Youli moved her mouth, while Gao Guo broke his head.

It may lead to long nights and many dreams, so it is better to decide as soon as possible.

The actors placed by Laosi performed their duties conscientiously, and the suggestions made were agreed by most of the ministers and workers. The ministers who had no position recommended the suitable candidates in their minds, but the ministers who had weight never came to an end, and the fourth child also joined in the fun and mentioned one. Wu Xian's sons who were adults and those who were close to adulthood were all mentioned repeatedly, until a recognized clear figure left the scene, stroking his beard.

He recommended Lao Si.

The fourth child was stunned: "This is impossible!"

Why not?

He comes from a humble background, has no support from his mother's family, is young and has low qualifications. If he were chosen, he might not be able to convince the public, let alone help Gao Guo become a better country. The Qingliu voice was full of emotion: "Your Majesty, the Fourth Highness, is too modest. If the destiny of the Kingdom of Gao ends, it will be the same as the current situation. It is not your fault alone. Please, Your Highness, please do not refuse!"

After Qingliu said this, some people seemed to react.

They all responded and recommended the fourth young master.

The minister who had a conflict of interest with Lao Si rolled his eyes inwardly.

However, they couldn't find each other's fault.

They even made the oath clear.

With God's endorsement, he is indeed innocent.

The fourth child naturally refused to give in easily and refused again and again.

According to the process, this matter had to be pushed back and forth three times before the fourth child sighed helplessly and agreed, in order to make it clear that this position is not for me, but forcibly given to me by you. I have to agree for the sake of Gao Guo. Come down.

However, these are special times.

The process can take as little as three months and as long as half a year.

Where do they have so much time for formalization?

The people who are in trouble are all the actors that Lao Si has won over.

When other ministers felt that it was too fast and the process could be compressed to two or three days, they moved out of Shen Tang. Two or three days, it depends on whether the person named Shen is willing to give it! Maybe there is a trick she arranged here in the capital. What if she interferes later? Is there anyone here who has the ability to ask her to cooperate?

Who can guarantee that people named Shen won't stir up trouble?

Shen Tang's flag is indeed very useful.

Her high pressure made things go smoothly.

In less than half an hour, the fourth child was put on the shelf! Faced with this situation, no matter how unwilling he was, he had no choice but to accept it. In order to show that he was not greedy for power, Lao Si repeatedly stated in front of everyone that he was only the temporary king! If he could welcome back his father, or if any brother was more talented than himself, he would definitely work non-stop and abdicate in favor of someone worthy of him without delaying for a moment!

Zhengyi Lingran's words won another favor. Regardless of whether he speaks human words or nonsense, they are definitely nice words!

"See my lord!"

The accident happened at this moment.

"No-"

Someone came hurriedly outside the hall holding something.

There were palace soldiers blocking him along the way, but when they saw what the man was holding high, they all put away their weapons and saluted. The ministers looked outside and saw that the man was panting as he ran all the way. The fourth child saw clearly the appearance of this man, and the officials also recognized his identity as a member of the royal family.

In terms of seniority, Wu Xian also wanted to call him uncle to give him face.

Some people also noticed what was in his hand.

"What is this?"

The visitor said angrily: "Of course it's a Zen edict!"

Zen edict? ? ?

Another Zen edict? ? ?

The ministers and the fourth child reacted violently.

The content is surprisingly consistent——

How many Zen edicts are there?

What makes Lao Si even more frightened is that he has seen this edict before. It is clearly the edict that was burned by his husband not long ago, giving the Zen position to Lao Wu! His heart was so turbulent, but there was no flaw on his face, and he stepped forward with others to confirm the authenticity.

The ministers and Wu Xian have known each other for so many years, so they naturally know each other's handwriting and aura. This Zen edict was definitely written by Wu Xian himself! According to this clan member, if the edict is true, there is no reason for the Fifth Young Master to force the palace to harm anyone!

The clan member angrily pointed at the fourth child: "Someone is confusing right and wrong!"

The fourth child who is the focus of everyone's attention: "..."

His facial nerves twisted and twitched a few times, his smile was stiff, and he asked unnaturally: "Master Clan, where did you come from?"

"Why are you pretending?" The clan member stepped forward and shouted angrily, "Do you really think you can hide the truth? Do you really think no one in the world can expose your disguise?"

The sight of the ministers made Lao Si feel on pins and needles.

He couldn't figure out why the destroyed edict appeared again! Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, and he thought of Mei Meng, but immediately rejected this guess. It is impossible for Mei Meng to betray herself. Everyone's motivation is based on profit, and betraying herself will do no good to Mei Meng. To put it another way, if Mei Meng really betrayed her, why would she push herself to this point?

With the same effort to help any brother, the benefits will far exceed that of helping him! If it’s not Mei Meng, then who is it?

After thinking about it, I thought of Wu Xian from Lao Wu.

Who stipulated that there should be only one copy of the edict?

Can't there be two copies of the edict to Lao Wu?

This is called double protection!

This speculation made Lao Si feel as disgusted as swallowing a fly.

When the fourth child didn't respond, the clan member took another two steps closer, leaving only ten steps between them. For others, this distance would make the fourth child feel insecure, but the clan member is in his seventies, with white beard and hair, and is an ordinary person! No matter how powerful you are, you can't threaten yourself!

"If you don't believe it, you can send someone to investigate..."

The tail is cleaned up.

If there are any clues, the worst thing is that he will lose his reputation, or at most he will get a bad reputation! With Wu Xianzhuyu in front of the old Wu family, no matter how much he does, he will be forgiven. So what if I'm hammered to death? Anyway, Lao Wu is dead!

The fourth child is confident and appears to be open and honest to outsiders.

The clan member waved his hand and said: "No, there is a witness! This witness will definitely reveal your true colors as a rebellious official and traitor!"

The witness was not someone else, but the youngest biological mother.

The fourth child almost jumped up when he saw the other party.

Didn’t the youngest biological mother commit suicide by hanging from a beam?

Civil and military officials...

All civil and military officials are also confused now.

I didn't expect that the person who had committed suicide by hanging himself would appear again. The key is still the victim. Her words are absolutely credible! All the ministers looked at Lao Si one after another, and the actors paid by Lao Si did not dare to support him in the face of public outrage. The fourth child just fooled everyone!

Among the ministers there was also the youngest's biological mother's uncle.

After hearing the cry, he immediately became furious.

It's just that someone moves faster than him.

"Rebellious ministers and traitors, I will clean up the house for your father today!"

Seventy-eight percent of the clan members were able to draw their swords.

Despite his age, the old man reacted extremely quickly under extreme emotions, and his moves were so swift that even the fourth child couldn't react in time. Perhaps the sword appeared too suddenly. His feet seemed to be rooted under his feet, and he watched the sword's edge magnify in front of his eyes!

Ding!

At the critical moment, the fatal sword was missed.

Only then could the fourth child avoid it.

Look gratefully at the person who rescued you.

This man has a dignified appearance but no sense of presence. He is good-looking but mediocre. Everyone was wondering when he had such skill. He took out a familiar item from his arms and scolded his clan members: "I've caught you, an old thief!"

Civil and military officials: "..."

They looked uncontrollably at the object in his hand.

Doesn't this thing look familiar?

Yeah, it does look familiar.

No matter the material or the private handwriting inside, it is exactly the same as the one the clan member took out. The only difference is the name. The latest edict, the Zen throne is given to Wang Sizi! Not only that, the Fourth Young Master knew it from beginning to end!

If the Fifth Young Master has a Zen edict and is cleared of suspicion of palace rebellion, wouldn't the Fourth Young Master have even less reason to become a traitor?

He has an edict, and his biological mother is still the head of the inner court.

Wu Xian's preference for him has been obvious to all over the years.

If we really want to achieve the Zen position, who has the greatest possibility? Needless to say?

"I was ordered by the king to set up a trap with His Highness the Fourth, and I'm just waiting for you, an old thief, to show off!" The ministers stared at the clan members, while the other civil and military officials looked at the fourth, who was so secretive.

The fourth child was still confused at the moment.

It's hard to get off the tiger, so you have to deal with the so-called "set up".

He sighed: "Everything is as you see."

|ω`)

The consummation ceremony is equivalent to an "examination", and you can start when you feel almost ready. All necessary procedures must be completed, and the process cannot be interrupted unless it succeeds or fails.

Mei Meng wants to push the fourth child up, and then expose him in public to meet the necessary conditions for "stealing the country by stealing hooks", then kill him with his own hands, correct him, and finally complete the way of the scribe.
