The fourth prince rushed into the dragon tent with a few guards, and was stunned when he saw the emperor playing chess with Gu Jian leisurely in the tent.
The emperor glanced at the fourth prince and knew that his son was not in a hurry to interact with the ministers in private after he fell into coma. He also saw that the anxiety on his face did not seem to be fake, and he looked good.
"Stand aside."
Knowing that the emperor was fine, the fourth prince breathed a heavy sigh of relief, sent the guards out of the tent, and walked to the side to stand.
For him who is not destined for the throne, it is most beneficial to the fourth prince's house if his father lives for a long time.
The fourth prince glanced at the third prince who was kneeling on the ground tremblingly, and shook his head in his heart. He used to think that this third brother was very smart, but judging from what he did today, he was extremely stupid.
With just one glance, the fourth prince looked away from the third prince, and his eyes fell on Gu Jian, who was playing chess with the emperor.
Looking at Prince Ping standing behind Gu Jian like a junior, the fourth prince felt very surprised.
The master of Brother and Sister Yang seems to have a very unusual identity.
At this moment, someone else rushed into the tent.
"Your Majesty!"
Under the protection of their own servants, ministers Wu Jingyi and Yang Chenghua entered the tent. Seeing that the emperor was safe and sound, they all breathed a sigh of relief, then knelt down to apologize: "Your Majesty, I am waiting for the escort to arrive late."
The emperor glanced at them: "Fortunately, there are still a few people who remembered to come over to escort him." After saying that, he didn't call out and continued to play chess with Gu Jian.
Yang Chenghua and others¡¯ heads were lowered.
The movement outside the tent became smaller and smaller, and when it was daylight, Wei Qi walked in: "Your Majesty, all those who conspired against us have been brought under control. Only Duke Cheng'en escaped into the depths of the paddock with a pair of people. "
The Emperor: ¡°Are all the ministers okay?¡±
Wei Qi: "Except for a few adults who were accidentally injured while running around, everyone else is fine."
The Emperor: "Pass the decree, Duke Chengen and the third prince and below have committed crimes against me and raised their troops to rebel. From now on, they have surrounded Duke Chengen's residence and the third prince's residence. No one is allowed to step out of the palace gate. Anyone who is disrespectful will be killed." No forgiveness.¡±
Hearing this, the third prince slumped down on the ground.
Wei Qi took the order and went down.
After a while, the eldest prince also entered the tent.
Seeing that the emperor was still energetic enough to play chess, the eldest princes hurriedly knelt down and said, "Father, I, my sons and ministers are waiting for help to come too late."
"The emperor didn't even look at the eldest princes.
Even if the third child instigated the tent break-in, if the elders didn't have the heart, they wouldn't have been easily incited.
At dawn, there were already people kneeling outside the dragon tent.
The mutiny between Duke Chengen and the Third Prince last night was so sudden that everyone only thought about escaping for their lives and never thought about rescuing him.
Now that the mutiny has been suppressed, everyone has returned to their senses, and they are shocked to realize the big mistake they have made. No, they immediately kneel outside the dragon tent.
The officials looked at each other, and they all felt happy in their hearts.
Fortunately, there are many people.
If the law does not hold everyone accountable, the emperor should not hold them accountable.
At this time, there is still something the officials don¡¯t understand.
"The emperor may have known about the rebellion between Duke Chengen and the third prince, and had already taken precautions.
"We should have followed Yang Chief Fu and the others to rescue him." Some officials regretted it in their hearts. It was a pity that it was such a good opportunity to show their face in front of the emperor!
The emperor knew that the officials were kneeling outside to plead guilty, so he said nothing. He took the porridge made from rice flowers and ate it slowly with Gu Jian and Prince Ping.
Daohua brought a bowl to the fourth prince, but she didn¡¯t care about the others.
At the beginning of the year (9:00), Xiao Yeyang came back with his people.
"Your Majesty, Duke Chengen and his men fled deep into the paddock and were bitten to death by a fierce tiger."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned for a moment.
A look of surprise flashed across the emperor's face: "Is the person dead?"
Xiao Yeyang nodded: "When I arrived with my people, half of Duke Cheng'en's body had been eaten by a tiger."
The emperor frowned: "Where are the people around him?"
Xiao Yeyang quickly glanced at Gu Jian, who was resting his eyes with his eyes closed: "Almost all of them are dead, only two of them are still alive, and they were brought back by me."
Yang Chenghua glanced at the silent emperor and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Duke Chengen risked the disdain of the world to commit rebellion, and now he died in the mouth of a wild beast. This is God's punishment for him."
?Wu Jingyi reacted and immediately echoed.
The other adults also followed suit.
Finally, the emperor let out a long sigh: "Although Duke Cheng'en is unfaithful, I cannot be unkind. I'd better take his body back to the Jiang family."
Yang Chenghua and others immediately shouted: "Your Majesty!"
The Emperor: "Okay, pack up and prepare to go back to the palace."
?¡
The carriage and horses for the return trip were quickly arranged. When everyone saw the emperor personally helping Gu Jian get into the carriage and calling him "uncle", everyone's jaw dropped.
The eldest princes were stunned on the spot.
"What uncle?"
Daohua passed by them and replied: "Of course he is my uncle!"
Hearing this, the eldest prince looked at each other in confusion. They had met Gu Jian several times, but every time they met, they seemed to show little respect.
"We shouldn't have offended that old man, right?"
The eldest princes were extremely upset. Seeing that their father seemed to respect the old man very much, was it too late for them to please him now?
"The third child killed us!"
The eldest prince cursed in regret. At this moment, his intestines were filled with regret. He shouldn't have listened to the third child's instigation. He wanted to break into the tent and arrest Xiao Yeyang again last night.
Now, that old man is the master of Xiao Yeyang¡¯s wife. What happened yesterday will definitely make Xiao Yeyang and his wife hold a grudge in their hearts. It will be difficult for them to please the old man!
At this time, several imperial guards escorted the third prince out of the tent, and then directly escorted him into the carriage.
The second prince saw it and murmured: "Third prince, it's over."
The eldest princes all stopped talking.
It was much quieter when Qiu Lie returned to the city than when he came here, but the quietness was only superficial. Everyone hid in their carriages and whispered about what happened this time.
In the carriage at Earl Zhaode's Mansion, Mrs. Han was talking to Han Xinman with a look of sadness on her face.
"Why do you think Yan Yiyi is so lucky? She turned out to be the emperor's uncle when she became her master! No wonder the Yan family's family background is not prominent, and she can marry the prince of the palace as his wife. Unexpectedly, she has such a big backer behind her. "
"Before, I thought that it would be difficult for her to establish herself after marrying into the palace, but after seeing Prince Ping's attitude towards the old man, Yan Yiyi can probably do well in the palace."
Han Xinman also sighed: "Yes, why is she so lucky?"
Mrs. Han: "Before, thinking about the poor family background of the Yan family, I didn't think much of them even after entering Beijing. But now, with such a relationship with the emperor's uncle's family, the Yan family is really different."
In the past, during banquets and gatherings, she could still suppress Mr. Yan Li intentionally or unintentionally, but that is no longer possible now.
With that said, Mrs. Han glanced at her eldest daughter and persuaded her, "I'll call your second sister home later. You two sisters should have a good talk. You can't continue to vent your anger on her."
Han Xin nodded wistfully. The thing she was most dissatisfied with was that she obviously married better than her second sister, but her life was not as comfortable as hers. In the past, she could not care less, but now her second sister has a concubine in the palace. Sister-in-law, if she wants to get to know the royal family, she has to bow to her.
The female relatives in other carriages were also saying similar things, especially those who used to dislike Daohua's low status and being unworthy of Xiao Yeyang. Now they are all silent.
In the carriage of Prince Yong's Mansion, Princess Yong looked at her husband: "No wonder you always run to Four Seasons Villa. Do you already know that person's identity?"
Prince Yong smiled and acquiesced.
Princess Yonglao sighed: "I used to think that the Lord of Shengping County climbed up to Yeyang and made the Yan family what it is today. Now that I think about it, I still can't tell who made who."
Prince Yong: "Yan Yatou and Yeyang are not who succeeds each other, but each other. Without Yeyang, the Yan family may emerge, but I don't know when it will be; without Yanya, with Yeyang's Ability can be valued by the emperor, but there will never be the kind of friendship we have today."
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out of filial piety and abiding by the rules by the Gu family, Yeyang's weight in the emperor's heart is not comparable to that of other royal children, not even the prince.
Princess Yong Lao nodded with approval.
In another carriage, Princess Huijia was also sighing: "I didn't expect the Lord of Shengping County to have such a good fortune." Although she married into Prince Ping's palace, she was favored by Yeyang, but how long can a man's favor last? Having a strong backer is the foundation for establishing a foothold in the palace.
