Lu Wenqian felt a little annoyed when he heard this, and reprimanded loudly: "You are just the imperial doctor in the palace, what can it do to you, and what does it have to do with what happened back then?"

After a pause, his voice became deeper: "If I remember correctly, Imperial Physician Shen risked being beheaded by Emperor Changqing and beheading your entire family to save you from misery. How could you? Killing people’s lives for your own selfishness?”

"Your Highness."

Zhang Jin burst into tears and knelt down: "Where can this old slave be selfish? The old slave and Zhongshan have known each other since they entered the palace. He has to support the old slave all the way to serve in front of Emperor Changqing. Changqing is deeply loved by the slave." The emperor trusts him, he is the old slave’s only close friend in the palace, if it was not a last resort, why would the old slave take his life?”

Recalling the past events, Zhang Jinnian's heart was like turbulent waves that could not calm down for a long time: "These old slaves can dream about the days when they met him every night, and the tragic scene of his death is still fresh in their memory. But compared with these, The scene of Queen Wen hanging herself in despair in the palace made the old slave even more heartbroken.

Empress Wen was such a kind and kind person. She cared for everyone in the palace, even humble people like old slaves, and took every possible care. However, she was forced by King Yu's party to lose her way of survival. They even chose to die to prove their innocence. Aren't they innocent? "

These words touched Lu Wenqian deeply.

He is the only remaining member of Queen Wen's bloodline, and he has heard too many grudges from the previous generation over the years.

But while you are in the royal family and enjoy the dignity and glory, you should be aware of the bloodshed and killings you may endure.

Since ancient times, the imperial family has been the most ruthless. Is there not enough intrigue and intrigue between the royal brothers and their heirs?

After all, it's just the winner and the loser.

If my grandfather had ascended to the throne, the fate of King Yu and his party would not have been much better.

"Zhang Jinnian, you appreciate Empress Wen's old kindness and want to do something for her. I'm grateful to you for this. I don't want to stop you from whatever you want to do, and I don't want to join in with you, but there is one thing."

At this point, Lu Wenqian's eyes paused: "My wife will never allow you to hurt her in the slightest. If something happens to her, don't blame me for not remembering our old relationship. As for the affairs of the court, I never want to get involved, so you don't need to take any more trouble. "

"Your Highness can let go of old grudges, can he also let go of the country and the country of Dayue Dynasty?"

Zhang Jinnian said sincerely: "The Dayue Dynasty has been your Highness's ancestors for generations and has been protected by all the previous emperors. Do you think your Highness is going to watch this world be destroyed in the hands of Prince Yu and his son?"

Slowly stood up, and he spoke loudly step by step: "Everyone in the world thinks that it was the old slave who caused trouble in the country and caused the world to be in such devastation. But is this really the case? If either King Yu or Emperor Mingzhao, father and son, is worried. Those who care about the government and the country, how will the old slaves get the opportunity to stand above the government and the opposition? In the final analysis, their virtues are not worthy of their place. For such mediocre people, even if I, Zhang Jinnian, were not there, there would naturally be Chen Jinnian and Ma Jinnian."

This point actually goes to Lu Wenqian's heart.

Although he had no interest in government affairs, after all, he had royal blood flowing in his body. How could he watch the entire court being so abused by Emperor Changqing and Emperor Mingzhao?

Emperor Changqing had been in power for ten years, and he had been indulgent and sensual, making the whole country miserable. Emperor Mingzhao had only been on the throne for a few years, and his government was no better than that of his father.

Zhang Jinnian saw that his heart was moved, and he knelt down again and said: "I sincerely ask Your Highness to come to the capital to serve the King."

Lu Wenqian frowned: "You should know the consequences of my entering Beijing."

"The old slave is just a broken body. It doesn't matter if his body is broken into pieces."

Zhang Jinnian said righteously and solemnly: "As long as I can help His Highness achieve eternal supremacy and clear up the grievances of Empress Wen and Prince Ling, I will not hesitate to die."

"No."

Lu Wenqian decisively rejected him and tried to help him up, but Zhang Jinnian seemed to have roots under his feet and couldn't pull him up no matter how hard he pulled. "Your Highness, please agree to this old slave's request for the sake of the country and land of the ancestors of the Dayue Dynasty."

Zhang Jinnian said in a solemn voice: "I have been planning for more than twenty years just for this day. As long as I can see His Highness enter the capital smoothly and see Empress Wen, Prince Ling and the countless wronged souls who died in vain be redressed, I will Die without regrets."

"But you will bear infamy for eternity, be despised by thousands of people, and will have no peace after your death."

Lu Wenqian pointed at him angrily and said anxiously: "Do you want me to send my foster father to this road of no return for my own ambitions?"

"The old slave bewitched two generations of kings, causing the descendants of King Yu to wither, causing chaos in the imperial court, and leaving Emperor Ming Zhao with no one to rely on. Even if His Highness does not enter the capital, the sins of the old slave can no longer be washed away."

Ever since he chose this path, Zhang Jinnian already knew his fate.

He is not afraid of death, nor is he afraid of being reviled by thousands of people. Now he just wants to see his plan go smoothly.

"Old slave, I sincerely ask Your Highness to fulfill my only long-cherished wish."

Hanging his head heavily, Zhang Jinnian finally requested.

Lu Wenqian was in a state of confusion at this moment. How could he bear the thought of this old man with gray hair on his temples who had risked everything to save him from fire and water to bear the unbearable sins for him again.

Slowly stepping out of the house with dull eyes, he just wanted to escape from this place.

"Lu Wenqian."

Zhang Jinnian roared, vowing to persuade him to stop, and said hysterically: "Your great-grandfather, Emperor Longsheng, was so talented and majestic. He once created an extremely magnificent empire, which made all nations come to court and the people were prosperous and healthy. Your grandfather listened to The prince is highly praised by both the government and the public. Even overseas countries admire him for his wisdom.

If it weren't for Prince Yu and his son, how could the Dayue Dynasty fall to this point? As a member of the Longsheng Emperor's bloodline, how could you sink so low and ignore the country and the country of your ancestors just for the personal love of your children? "

Seeing that Lu Wenqian was still moving forward, Zhang Jinnian suddenly became anxious and shouted desperately: "If you are not willing to help me, I will hit my head on this wooden pillar and die today."

Hearing this, Lu Wenqian immediately turned around and saw that he was about to hit the pillar next to him. He strode over to stop him and said sternly: "Why should my foster father do this?"

Zhang Jinnian looked livid and did not answer his words.

Lu Wenqian knew his temperament, so he could only compromise and nodded: "Since my adoptive father insists on this, I will agree to it."

The huge stone hanging in Zhang Jinnian's heart finally fell to the ground, and he nodded happily and said: "I know that I am not wrong about the person."

He looked up to the sky with excitement, tears filling his eyes: "Queen Wen, have you seen that your great-grandson has grown up and he can finally return to Beijing?"

Lu Wenqian was extremely worried at this time.

For the sake of the throne and the country of Dayue Dynasty, he had to lose the person who loved him most in the world.

Hearing the sound of ecstasy in the room, he couldn't help but shed a cold tear from the corner of his eye.

After leaving the door, he got on his horse and galloped away.
