Chapter 273
When Xianggong Wei Xiao went to the funeral, the city was full of plains, white paper, white lamps, white cloth, and white flowers, like a heavy snowfall, decorating the entire Chang'an city into a kingdom of ice and snow.However, everyone who attended the funeral had a different heart.

Because he is already a king with a different surname, Ye Chuan’s seat in the mourning hall is second only to that of King Wei, and he specially rushed back to the capital to attend the funeral. Jiedu envoys and governors of various states entered the mourning hall in an endless stream. Everyone who saw Ye Chuan stopped and handed over salute.Ye Chuan only slightly nodded his head, which was regarded as a return gift.So people seemed to have just seen King Wei, and hurriedly and politely expressed their respect to the regent.

Looking at Ye Chuan beside him, who was full of spring breeze, King Wei felt more and more unhappy.

One wrong step, and the whole game is lost.

In order to suppress Pei Jiong's rebellion, he had to crown the Ye family as king; after the rebellion, he wanted to support Wei Xiao to split the military power, but because of Wei Xiao's untimely death, he lost the opportunity to contain the Ye family.Although Ye Chuan is still meek and obedient, he is completely different from when he returned from Liangzhou half a year ago.

Half a year ago, he returned to the capital with the flames of revenge. There was anger and confusion in his eyes, but more worry about his future.

But today, half a year later, his eyes are full of complacency. Most of his political enemies have been eradicated, and the rest are useless.Even if he is the regent king, how can he stand up to him!

Lead the wolf into the room!

The king of Wei thought hard, until now he realized that the biggest mistake he made since he became the regency was——

Wrong look at the Ye family!
He thought that Ye Chuan was no more than a middle-aged man, and he was able to have today's cultivation thanks to Emperor Wu; he thought that Ye Chuan, like Lord Ye Jun, was loyal to the royal family and would never regret it until his death!The truth is, Ye Chuan is Ye Chuan, and Ye Ziyun is Ye Ziyun.Ye Chuan inherited Ye Ziyun's military talent, but he didn't accept his stupid loyalty!
But Xiao Zhicheng is a person who has experienced wind and rain, and suddenly discovered the fact that the sheep-like people around him are actually hungry wolves with sharp claws. Although he was shocked, he did not lose his composure.Instead, because of this detail, lightning flashed across the darkness, helping him remember the subtleties he had overlooked.

On the night of the late emperor's death, Ye Chuan was guarding outside the palace, and Fu Lici was waiting in front of the coffin... And the so-called imperial edict of Emperor Wu's succession was taken out of Fu Lici's sleeve!
Thinking back carefully at that time, he was shocked to find that he didn't read the imperial edict carefully at all, but burned the imperial edict under Fu Lici's instigation.

——Not even confirming the authenticity of the imperial edict!

If the imperial edict is false.

If everything is a hoax? !
in case……

A cold air rushed straight from the soles of the feet to the forehead, absurd suspicion, but it may also be the suspicion closest to the truth.

After all, even Ye Chuan has been proven to be a wolf in sheep's clothing, and Fu Lici, who has the blood of the King Ni in his body, how can he be a docile flower?

That woman is so cunning that even King Liang gnashes his teeth every time she mentions it!

Even a stupid woman like Pei Linger realized that to keep her son's throne, she had to kill Fu Lici. Only herself, who thought she was in control of the overall situation, was deceived by their docile masks.

Thinking of this, there was a crisp sound between the fingers, and the cypress folding fan was broken unknowingly!

……

……

On the seventh day of December, there was light snow and the first clear sky, and the stamens of the red plums blooming in the imperial garden became more and more crystal clear because of the embellishment of ice and snow.

After dealing with political affairs, Ye Chuan, who was invited to walk in the snow to find plum blossoms, walked on the rockery with King Wei. The thin snow accumulated on the rocks, because of the warm sun, was translucent and slowly melted, flowing down the exquisite stone crevices, and fell on the rocks. Clinking on the bluestone.

"Today, the sun is warm and the snow is about to melt, but the scenery is extraordinarily enchanting."

Smiling hypocritically, King Wei closed the newly-acquired carved bone fan, and Ye Chuan said perfunctorily, "It's the prince's elegance that makes him worthy of the jade bones and ice muscles in this courtyard."

"It's a pity that Kong has elegant taste, but there is no Xie Yuhua!"

The King of Wei sighed meaningfully, everyone knew that the Princess Regent and the King Regent had known each other in infancy, they were more than virtuous, but inevitably lacked in taste, and they were full of jealousy.The king of Wei was greedy for flowers and lustful, and there were romantic affairs spread in the streets and alleys from time to time.But King Wei is affectionate but not sentimental. He knows that he is the regent king, and his words and deeds are under the attention of the world, so he has no feelings for the regent princess for a long time, but on the surface, he respects and loves him more and more. Called the best couple.

Hearing King Wei's sigh, Ye Chuan continued to smile and said, "My lord's backyard is full of colorful flowers, isn't there a single one that I like?"

"Those women... may be beautiful in appearance, but they are all stupid and greedy. They surround me begging for jewelry and clothes all day long. Don't talk about court affairs with them, they just let the princess take them for an outing in the countryside. If they meet the status Quite a wife, I might lose my face because of my inappropriate words and deeds! Only brother Ye Chuan has a cousin who is both talented, virtuous, and beautiful! It’s no wonder that when the late emperor died, she was the only one to serve him."

Speaking of this, King Wei let out a burst of hearty laughter.

This is temptation.

With Pei Ling'er dead, Ye Chuan was not surprised that he would be listed as the next target to be eradicated by King Wei.But Wei Xiao's death disrupted King Wei's plan and forced him not to act rashly.

But it is not easy to come up with such a roundabout method.

While thinking about his thoughts, Ye Chuan raised his head and said: "Although my brother-in-law is a genius, he was tortured by hallucinations day and night before he died, and he often suspected that his servants had murderous intentions. But he still trusts me and my husband wholeheartedly. If there are some unbearable rumors spread because of this, it will be cleared by the clearer."

King Wei laughed and said, "Why would I have such doubts? I just... just suddenly wanted to know, did the emperor leave an edict to inherit the throne before his death?"

Having said that, he paused for a moment, and his eyes sharpened.

Ye Chuan's heart skipped a beat. He knew that King Wei really began to doubt their intentions.

But he immediately calmed down again. Wei Xiao was dead, and with the full support of the emperor faction, he had monopolized military power. Even if King Wei was unwilling, he must be recognized and even feared!
So he simply exposed the inside story.

"Your Highness already knew the result in his heart, so why do you have to tell me to expose the matter?"

At this moment, the two of them walked to the high platform, Ye Chuan naturally pushed open the stone door, and walked into the Nuan Pavilion built in the heart of the rockery.

The last time he came here was during Emperor Wu's reign, Ye Chuan thought with emotion, after being separated for several years, his face was completely changed, but the room was still spotless, the fragrance inside the white jade carved incense cage was faintly fragrant, and the pearl chain trembled slightly due to the cold wind.

He parted the bead curtain, walked into the room, and sat down loudly, on the fur of a strange animal obtained from the extreme north.

"My husband and I have always been aware of the worries of the prince. Letting the only flesh and blood of my brother-in-law sit on the dragon chair is the most sensible decision for us. However, Pei Linger did not know what to do, and formed a deadly enmity with my husband and wife, and did not know what to do to set off a rebellion Now, although the Pei family has been destroyed, His Majesty still has Pei's blood in his body. It is hard to guarantee that one day he will not bring up the old matter again in order to reverse the case for his mother."

Seeing him casually regardless of his status, King Wei was so angry that his teeth were itching, but what could he do, he could only pretend to be indifferent, turned his back to Ye Chuan, and made a gesture of studying the texture of the ebony screen, saying : "I've also thought about this possibility, but Your Majesty is His Majesty after all, how can we act like a deposed king in order to protect ourselves?"

"My lord be careful!"

Ye Chuan spoke hastily, but for some reason, there was a sense of elation and complacency in his mouth.

King Wei clenched his teeth even louder.

"what on earth do you want!"

"The servant is dull and doesn't know what the prince means."

Ye Chuan pretended to be ignorant as he spoke, sliding his fingers over the fur under his body. The tip of every hair in this fur was shining. Although it had been stripped and tanned for many years, he could still feel the vitality it once had.

What kind of beautiful creature was its original owner?

And what kind of thoughts should Jun Fengxi, who traveled to the west to get this thing, go to himself?
When his thoughts were flying aside, King Wei had already turned around. Seeing that Ye Chuan was quite interested in the fur, he immediately understood what he meant, and said with a sneer, "It seems that you may not be smarter than me! You really took that liar to do it! Counsellor! What a pity, you will fall into the trap of that ungrateful liar ignorantly when you are about to win. Yes, with him planning for you, you will be getting closer and closer to victory in the shortest time, but Don't forget, if he can betray me now, he will betray you in the future!"

Obviously, Wei Wang firmly believed that his failure was inseparable from Jun Fengxi.

"You know this, how could I not know? Jun Fengxi is a person without benevolence and righteousness, but he is also the most sensitive person. He was able to see the change of the wind direction earlier than anyone else, and was resented by countless people. It is also a kind of strength to be able to escape smoothly every time. And His Royal Highness King Wei, you are indeed far inferior to him in this regard."

King Wei sneered, he could hear Ye Chuan laughing at him, laughing at him for thinking he was smart but being manipulated by others, he knew that he should remain indifferent and indifferent at this time, but deep down he could bear it Unable to be angry, he simply took out the fan, slapped it on the table with a "snap", and said sharply: "You actually think you can control this capricious hypocrite Jun Fengxi? Well, I will wait here quietly, Wait until the day when you are betrayed by him when you are about to sit on the throne like me! I believe your face will be very bright at that time!"

This is the most vicious curse that King Wei can utter. The court has completely escaped his control, and the people in front of him have long been out of his command.

It is no exaggeration to say that even if Ye Chuan and him flipped the table on the spot, he could only grit his teeth and accept it!
"If there is a day, it must be my own fault."

Ye Chuan said indifferently, there is no benevolence and righteousness in political struggle, not to mention that compared to those impermanent villains, at least Jun Fengxi will not take advantage of the unfortunate defeat of the old master.He is just a good bird that chooses a tree to live in, and he always abides by the basic morality.

Never expecting Ye Chuan to speak so viciously, King Wei's face became more and more ugly. Ye Chuan took advantage of the situation and took a step forward, saying: "My lord, you have a strange complexion. Could it be that you have been overworked recently and you are not feeling well? You are the mainstay of the court. Zhu, when the country is the most important thing, why don't you go back to your home temporarily to preserve your health?"

"you……"

Actually forcing the palace!

King Wei thought angrily, and was about to scold, but he heard the sound of flattery behind him, and then he realized that the outside of Nuan Pavilion was surrounded by courtiers at some time.Thinking that the words he just said might be heard by them, he became so anxious that he really fainted!
……

Three days later, the Regent King Wei formally issued an edict, admitting that he was not feeling well recently, and went back to the mansion to recuperate for half a year, and worshiped Ye Chuan as Taifu and Prime Minister.
