Jia Shen's breathing became short of breath.
At this time, he had to give that person a chance.
"When you hear this, do you still dare to stand on the side of His Highness the Seventh Prince?" Jia She said bewitchingly, "You have heard it too. Your Highness will wipe out all his past achievements after a word of persuasion from Lord Bai." , to take his life, if he ascends to the throne in the future, will you all have to worry day and night that you will die if you make a slip of the tongue?"
There is indeed some truth in what Jia She said.
Everyone couldn't help but feel even more shaken.
With Xu Chengsong's precedent and Bai Shangen's example in sight, how could they dare to be loyal to the Seventh Prince?
And what Jia She said is right, if Tulu becomes successful, for the sake of his own reputation in history, he will definitely kill the roots.
Seeing that everyone was getting more and more shaken.
Tu Lu panicked, pointed at Jia She with a dagger in his hand, and shouted angrily: "Shut up! You are talking nonsense! I will never do this."
Before he finished speaking, a person suddenly jumped out from behind.
He strangled his throat with one hand, and knocked away the dagger in his hand with the other.
Emperor Jianming was bound to be implicated and fell to the ground.
Tu Yuan hurriedly stepped forward and supported Emperor Jianming.
"Let go! Who dares to stop me!" Tu Lu struggled desperately, but was pressed to the ground, his face was ferocious, like a ghost.
At this time, the sound of footsteps gradually increased, and a group of guards came out from the corridor.
Tu Lu's eyes lit up immediately, "Master Wei, quickly catch these people."
He was too happy, and after those people approached, he realized that the leader was not his Master Wei, but a stranger.
Emperor Jianming coughed and said with a sneer, "Nizi, do you really think that I will not spare you? I have already found out that Wei Chen belongs to you. As soon as you entered the palace, I ordered someone to replace the guard."
He seemed to be pissed off, and a smear of blood flowed out of his mouth while coughing.
"Father, father." Tu Yuan seemed to be frightened, and quickly took out a handkerchief to help him wipe the blood, but there was more and more blood.
"Hahaha," Tu Lu looked up to the sky and laughed, his hair crown was knocked off, and his black hair was loose, like a madman, he sneered, "Father, if you want my son to die, my son will die." I will never let you live, let's be father and son on the road to Huangquan."
"You, what did you do to me?" Emperor Jianming covered his mouth and coughed, blood dripped continuously from between his fingers, and within a short while, his feet were covered with blood.
"Father, do you think that this son-in-law just let Imperial Physician Lin tamper with the crown prince?" Tu Lu laughed, "Don't father feel that your body is not right these days? My son-in-law gave you a drug, originally you still Thinking that if the father gives the throne to the son-in-law in the future, the son-in-law will give you the antidote, now it seems that this move is really right."
"You, you..." Emperor Jianming was so angry that his hands were shaking.
"Father..." Tu Yuan watched in horror as Emperor Jianming's complexion gradually turned from white to blue.
"Hurry up and pass on the imperial physician." Zhang Heng said decisively.
Tu Lu chuckled, "It's useless, only I have the antidote, father, don't you just want me to die? My son, let's take a step first and wait for you in the underworld."
After Tu Lu finished speaking, he took a step forward, picked up the dagger on the ground, and pierced it into the heart with a plop.
A smear of blood flowed from his lips, he showed a mocking smile, staggered, and knelt down on the ground.
He opened his eyes and looked at Emperor Jianming mockingly.
Then, he fell to the ground dejectedly.
Emperor Jianming coughed and spat out a mouthful of blood with a puff.
"Father..." Tu Yuan shouted in panic.
Emperor Jianming seemed to lose all strength in an instant, he fell into Tu Yuan's arms, opened his eyes, and in a daze, he seemed to see Tu Yuan showing an indifferent smile.
"Is it an illusion?" He wondered in a daze before losing consciousness.
Or, is Tu Yuan finally showing his true colors.
The answer to this question, he probably will never know for the rest of his life.
Emperor Jianming slowly closed his eyes.
The seventh day of August in the 21st year of Da'an Tianyuan.
There was civil turmoil in the palace, Emperor Jianming passed on to the crown prince, and the seven princes waited for an opportunity to cause chaos, threatening the emperor in an attempt to usurp the throne, but failed.The seven princes committed suicide, the emperor died due to illness, the crown prince ascended the throne, the sons of the seven princes were demoted to common people, one of them was scattered, and the treacherous prime minister Song Yuan Qing, who was the leader, was beheaded all over the family, and the others were relegated or banished, or Exile thousands of miles.
October of the same year.
The barbarians raised troops to create chaos in the border area, intending to take advantage of the transition from old to new in Da'an to annex the land of Da'an.
"Bastards! These barbarians are really barbaric and unreasonable. In the past, it was clearly their third prince who killed the eldest prince, but today they have been framed by our Da'an." Tu Yuan was so angry that he even forgot his current identity, and cursed at the Golden Palace .
"Your Majesty, calm down. The barbarian has been ambitious for a long time. Even if there is no such reason, there will be other reasons. Right and wrong are easy to understand. What we have to do now is to let the barbarian suffer." Zhang Heng said.
"Yes, Your Majesty, the Ministry of Industry has urged its subordinates to make a batch of 'Sky Thunder' these days, and it will be sent to the frontier in the near future. Presumably, with this 'Sky Thunder', it will definitely be called a barbarian." Looks good." Jia She said.
He should have advanced to the Hanlin Academy for a few years before being reused, but now the court is short of manpower, and the Seventh Prince faction cannot be reused. Most of the officials hold multiple positions. be reused.
I have to say that sometimes, luck is also very important.
And thanks to the blessings of these young and energetic new officials, the entire imperial court can almost be said to have joined a batch of new blood, and the atmosphere has taken on a new look.
"Okay, Jia Qing and Yan Qing must urge those people to make more 'shocking thunder', I want to let those barbarians know how powerful they are." Tu Yuan was obviously very angry this time.
There is no other reason.
Since Tu Yuan ascended the throne, he had intended to go to Mount Tai to enshrine Zen, but things were not smooth sailing. Not only did he encounter the once-in-a-hundred-year plague of locusts, but now there are barbarians rebelling, it's no wonder he was so furious.
"Your Majesty, the national treasury is afraid..." Qi Liqun, Minister of the Household Department, showed a hesitant expression. The Household Department is in charge of the treasury. Originally, Mount Tai had spent a lot of money on enshrining Zen. In addition to the famine caused by the locust plague, the treasury had to allocate funds for disaster relief. Difficulties, coupled with the thunderous expenses, are indeed difficult for some strong people.
It's not that Tu Yuan is ignorant of the situation, but none of these things can be temporarily abandoned.
He frowned, "Leave the court for now, Qi Qing, Yan Qing, Jia Qing, and Zhang Qing will follow me to the Imperial Study Room."
"Yes." The four answered in unison.
But they all look different.
Inside the imperial study.
Tu Yuan took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, frowned and asked, "Qi Qing's family, how much is left in the treasury?"
A wry smile crossed Qi Liqun's lips.
He opened his mouth and said hesitantly: "Your Majesty, there is not much left in the national treasury. These days, 3 taels of snowflake silver has been allocated for disaster relief. Taxes from various places have not come up this year. I have the final say. In the treasury, I am afraid that only There are only a few thousand taels left."
This is still the result of multi-mile calculations.
