Invincible son

The sun is setting on the western mountain, and it is the time of the evening.

Although Li Zi, the commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army, was not in danger of threatening his life, he could not forcefully insist on leading the army. Therefore, the Forbidden Army was temporarily in charge of the Forbidden Army by Hou Xiaojin of Xiangcheng, and cooperated with the Luan Yiwei led by Chen An to dig three feet into the palace. inspection.

Palace ladies, internal prisons, court guards, and even Luan Yiwei and the imperial guards themselves were constantly taken away and imprisoned.Because of the Nanxun Hall explosion, this was obviously a more severe and cruel purge than originally planned.

Xiao Jin was not in the palace at this time, but outside Chengtianmen, Pei Cheng, who had bandaged his wound, was standing beside him, both of them were facing the east direction of Yujie.

Seeing a carriage approaching surrounded by a whole team of Luan Yiwei masters, Xiao Jin took a deep breath, straightened his clothes again, and walked up slowly.

Only now did he notice that this was a special carriage made by Luan Yiwei. It was closed on three sides without curtains, and the doors were also locked with dual locks and refined iron chains. There were only some small holes at the back of the carriage for ventilation. .

Xiao Jin frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Open the car door."

Luan Yiwei's spy did not dare to hesitate, and the two people on the left and right sides of the car shaft each took out a key, opened the dual lock and removed the chain, and then opened the car door.

Mo Moyun got down from the carriage. He was wearing his usual robes, and he didn't change into Taishitai Pavilion Zuo Lingchen's official uniform on purpose.Although he is like a prisoner at the moment, his sideburns are still combed neatly without any mess.

The only thing that didn't match his demeanor was the shackles on his hands and feet.

With a complicated expression, Xiao Jin stepped forward and cupped her hands and said, "Master Shen, I've offended you."

Mo Moyun looked at Xiao Jin calmly, and said slowly: "Your Majesty of Xiangcheng, you don't have to be polite, Mr. Shen is a person who has committed a crime, and it is the norm to deal with it like this."

Xiao Jin sighed in his heart, although there are many heroes in the court, there are not many who can make him sincerely admire, and the middle-aged man in front of him is one of them.Taishitai Pavilion Zuo Lingchen has always been a high-ranking official. In the first 15 years of the Kaiping Dynasty, the importance of this official position was even second only to that of Dongfu Zuo.If the person in power is that kind of cunning and cruel official, the court will inevitably be in a bloodbath for more than ten years.

Although Xiao Jin had been guarding in Hucheng before, he had never lost his correspondence with the capital, so he naturally knew what role Mo Moyun played by His Majesty's side.

How can the name of a lonely minister come out of nothing?

however……

Xiao Jin didn't know what to say, her words seemed extremely weak at this moment.

Mo Moyun looked calm, turned his head to look at Pei Cheng on the other side, nodded and said: "Sure enough, if the Duke of the Kingdom can see you today in the spirit of the sky, I will feel very pleased."

Pei Cheng's lips moved and his face was sad. Although he knew that it would attract some unnecessary criticism, he still bowed respectfully and said: "The junior thank you for taking care of the Pei family these years."

Mo Moyun said gently: "Without your grandfather's appreciation and trust, I would be nothing more than a poor scholar."

He skipped this topic, and then said to Xiao Jin: "Your Majesty, will you take me to Zhao Prison or the Harem?"

Xiao Jin said softly: "Xingqing Palace."

Mo Moyun shook his head and sighed, "Why bother."

Immediately, he stepped forward surrounded by Xiao Jin and Luan Yiwei's spies, walking forward calmly, the shackles on his feet dragging the iron chain, and the piercing voice echoed in the wide and magnificent square in front of the palace.

When he came outside the Xingqing Hall, there were some more masters of the court guards in front of him, who searched him thoroughly, and then let Xiao Jin lead him into the inner hall.

Mo Moyun smiled lightly and didn't care.

Candles were already lit in the inner hall, and the light was so bright that Mo Mo Yun could even see the face of the emperor on the dragon chair clearly after he walked in.A little different from the past, the person standing beside him was not everyone who knew Liu Bao, but Hou Yu who was more than ten years younger than everyone who knew him.

In addition to Emperor Kaiping, there are Prince Liu Xian, Mo Haoli, who is in power on the left, Luoting, who is in power on the right, and Xiao Jin who accompanied him in the hall.

Mo Moyun took a few steps forward in a calm manner, then bowed and saluted: "The guilty minister, Mo Mo Yun, pay homage to Your Majesty."

No one in the hall dared to make a sound, only when he swung his hands, the iron chain clanged.

Then came a breathless silence.

Mo Moyun maintained that posture until Emperor Kaiping's indifferent voice came from ahead.

"Flat body."

He straightened up slowly and met the emperor's sharp gaze.

Emperor Kaiping naturally wanted to ask this middle-aged lonely minister a lot of things, but at the moment when he actually saw him, he felt that those words were meaningless, and instead made his mind anxious, which then affected his struggling body .

But if he doesn't ask, how can he feel relieved?

To him, Mo Moyun is different from Wang Pingzhang and Gu Liang, and even Mo Haoli and Luo Ting.Before Pei Yue appeared, he gave Mu Mo Yun the highest trust, and handed over the huge Taishitai Pavilion to the other party. He only placed a few cronies as the masters, and did not interfere with his every move.

Therefore, he asked coldly, "Did I ever treat you badly in the past 17 years?"

Mo Moyun focused his eyes and thought carefully, and said for a long time: "No."

Pain flashed across Emperor Kaiping's eyes, and he said quietly, "Then why did you betray me?"

Mo Moyun glanced at the several important ministers on both sides, and said lightly: "Your Majesty, I don't think the reason is important. Since I have already taken this step, Your Majesty only needs to let people find out what I have done, and then set a random date." Ming canonical punishment."

Emperor Kaiping's cold eyes gradually narrowed.

Mo Moyun seemed unaware, and continued: "The minister had already made a plan to use explosives to assassinate the driver more than half a month ago. The minister secretly contacted the woman who was proficient in gunpowder, and conspired with Wang Pingzhang. He was responsible for cooperating with Liu They persuaded Empress Chen together, and the minister used the internal agents placed in the Luan Yiwei and the Imperial Army to bury the explosives inside and outside the Nanxun Hall. This is the whole truth and process of the matter. Your Majesty can rest assured that the chief of the Ninth Department of Taige They weren't involved."

He looked up at Emperor Kaiping, and said slowly: "Of course, if Your Majesty is worried, you can replace all the principals in the pavilion. With the help of this minister's attempt to assassinate the emperor, we will carry out liquidation and adjustment. There will be no opposition from within the Chinese or Taiwan cabinets."

This is a slightly absurd scene.

As the mastermind of the assassination case, Mo Haoli talked in front of the emperor, and Mo Haoli and other important officials listened silently, no one jumped out to accuse or scold him for his infidelity.

Emperor Kaiping didn't seem to care about these things, hearing the deep meaning hidden in Mo Moyun's words, he knew that he was implying that he had always wanted to split and weaken the power of Taishitai Pavilion, so that it could keep pace with Luan Yiwei to check and balance each other.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help sneering: "In this way, I have to thank you."

Mo Moyun shook his head and said: "I dare not. Because of my minister, your majesty's dragon body has been damaged. Although I have no intention of guilt, I also know that this is a treasonous act that I will die."

Luo Ting, who stood beside him, frowned and said, "Lord Shen, you shouldn't say such frivolous words."

Mo Moyun replied calmly: "This is sincere and sincere, not pretentious, please do not get angry if you are in power."

Emperor Kaiping looked at the middle-aged man who dealt with it calmly from beginning to end, and asked again: "I ask you, why did you betray me?"

Mo Moyun immediately knew that the emperor had a deep obsession in his heart, and then sighed softly: "When I first had this idea, it was because I thought that there were not many people I wanted in this life. After all, there were only three things. One is to stabilize the people in Daliang. Wealth, the second is the stability of the government, the government is clear, and the third is that relatives can enjoy family happiness in peace."

Emperor Kaiping couldn't help but think of the conversation he had with Concubine Wu Gui in the bedroom, and his eyes gradually became more bitter.

Mo Moyun lowered his head slightly and said: "Your Majesty, I only have one son and one daughter, and I regard them as treasures. For Your Majesty and the court, I can dedicate everything, including my life. However, I hope they can live well, Even if you live like an ordinary person, this is the bottom line that Chen must adhere to as a father."

Emperor Kaiping's right hand gradually clenched into a fist, saying word by word: "I don't know about this matter."
