Riding the Pheonix Chapter 592: Rewards and Punishments

The imperial edict was issued quickly.

Everyone who has made contributions in countering the rebellion will be rewarded and promoted.

Among them, Jiang Wenfeng received the only imperial edict and was given a purple gold fish bag, but his actual position level was not upgraded.

In the Royal Treasure House, Fu Jin happily drank a small drink and said, "It's safe to enter the political hall."

Yang Shu said: "Are you so sure?"

Fu Jin said: "Prime Minister Lu will retire this year. His legs can no longer walk."

Yang Shu suddenly realized: "No wonder the old prime minister is sitting and carrying the chariot these few times when he sees him." He then sighed, "What a pity, the old prime minister is really the pillar of the country."

"It is inevitable that a new generation will replace the old."

In any case, this result is exactly what they want to see.

Behind Yang Shu's invisibility, Jiang Wenfeng stepped forward and became the central minister in one fell swoop. Di Fan and others have all been promoted, which means their power has expanded again.

Before the meeting ended, Fu Jin said: "Although the situation is excellent, Your Highness now has a big crisis that we must guard against."

"What?"

"That man is no longer able to govern, and King An has performed very well this time. He must be eager to let King An take over. In other words, his most urgent thing now is to clear the way for King An to ascend the throne. Your Highness, regardless of whether you have intervened in this matter or not, you are a hidden danger to him, so be careful of him jumping over the wall."

"..." Yang Shu said, "Do you think this word is appropriate to use here?"

Fu Jin rolled his eyes: "Anyway, as long as you understand, let's go!"

Yang Shu looked at his back and murmured to himself: "You are not determined to kill me, are you?"

……

Tianlao.

After hearing the imperial edict, the second prince shouted.

"Impossible, impossible! My father will not be so heartless, I want to see my father!"

Eunuch Liu looked at him with a smile, his eyes full of indifference: "Your Highness, you are the heartless person! Your Majesty is a king and a father. You intend to kill the king and your father. You have this end, and you blame your heartlessness. ?"

The second prince was in a state of confusion and had lost his mind for a long time. He only remembered shouting: "No, I didn't! I just wanted to make my father change his mind, not to seize the throne! Yes, it's Mr. Hong, this matter It was all planned by Mr. Hong! Father-in-law, please tell your father that I was just obsessed for a moment..."

He burst into tears, with runny nose and tears, but he still had the bearing of a prince.

It's a pity that no one sympathized with him.

"Please tell my father to interrogate Mr. Hong, is it really him..."

Eunuch Liu let him hold his hem and said softly: "Mr. Hong has committed suicide."

The second prince's eyes widened and he was stunned.

Eunuch Liu took the opportunity to escape and left the prison.

Then a jailer came forward and restrained the second prince.

"No, no..."

Amidst the horrified shouts of the second prince, the poisonous wine was poured in.

Eunuch Liu waited outside for a while, listening to his screams like crazy, and then gradually stopped.

"Father-in-law, I have lost my temper."

Eunuch Liu sighed: "He is a prince after all, so let him retain some dignity."

"Yes."

Eunuch Liu left the prison and went back to resume his life.

The emperor tried several times, but was exhausted of family affection, so he only waved his hand and told him to stand down.

He lay for a while, facing the empty dormitory, and suddenly whispered: "I have embarked on this path after all! Father."

……

Eunuch Liu changed his clothes and went out to do business.

When I went to Prince An's Mansion, I couldn't help but meet Yang Shu.

Wang An thought it was troublesome to climb the wall, so he opened up the back gardens of the two houses. When he went there, King An was playing at Yang Shu's place.

After Eunuch Liu finished delivering the message, King An hurriedly went on errands and left him in Prince Yue's Mansion.

Yang Shu laughed: "It's such a cold day, father-in-law, would you like to have a drink before leaving?"

Eunuch Liu responded with a smile: "Then thank you, His Highness the King of Yue."

Yang Shu glanced at Xiaotong and stepped out.

"My father-in-law, did you come here specifically to see me?"

Eunuch Liu nodded and replied: "His Royal Highness previously asked the slave to pay attention to the man named Hong. I have failed in my trust."

"What?"

"He committed suicide."

Yang Shu was stunned for a moment: "You are not an ordinary person who can commit suicide in a prison!"

Eunuch Liu said: "He is a ruthless man. We took away all the sharp weapons. He sharpened his nails and pierced his own throat."

"There is indeed a problem with his identity." Yang Shu said.

Eunuch Liu asked: "Who does your highness suspect he is?"

Yang Shu pointed: "People from the south."

Eunuch Liu was surprised: "Chu State?"

"Yes." Yang Shu glanced at him, "We have been living in peace for many years, and everyone has forgotten that there is an enemy country to the south of us!"

Eunuch Liu was a little ashamed: "Yes, I didn't expect that at the moment."

"But now all the clues have been cut off and cannot be traced." Yang Shu lay back with a look of regret on his face.

The appearance of Mr. Hong is very strange in itself.

Feng Xuan? Yang Shucai didn't believe that there would still be people like Feng Chen. Even if there were, it wouldn't be the second prince's turn.

It is very strange that the second prince, the person involved, knew only a little about such a major event as conspiracy, but it was all planned by Mr. Hong. In addition, Mingwei said that Wen Xiuyi was from the south, so this matter can be easily explained.

For the Chu State, inciting the second prince to rebel would definitely cause turmoil for the Qi State.

So, it doesn't matter whether the second prince succeeds or not, what matters is Wen Xiuyi's assassination.

And the fact that it cut off all the clues ~IndoMTL.com~ proved that it was definitely not simple behind the scenes.

"Please think of a way to mention it." Yang Shu said, "After all, it is a national matter, so your Majesty should be aware of it."

Eunuch Liu hesitated: "Your Highness..."

"This will make it easier for you to investigate." Yang Shu said, "No matter what I want to do, Qi will never be in turmoil. Do you understand?"

"Yes." Eunuch Liu was convinced and bowed deeply.

After talking about business, Yang Shu asked: "How is your empress doing now?"

Eunuch Liu replied: "Your Majesty, your Majesty is with you now. She has done everything personally. She is in good spirits and has no problem eating and sleeping."

Yang Shu whispered: "It's hard for her."

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will pay attention."

Yang Shu smiled: "Thank you for your hard work."

He knew that Eunuch Liu's words did not just have a superficial meaning, but a promise.

He will protect Concubine Pei in the palace.

Seeing that the emperor could not last long, she would soon be out of the sea of ​​suffering. This is a crucial step and must not fall short.

……

Concubine Pei went to see Concubine Hui.

The palace that was bustling with activity in the past few days was now empty except for a few panicked palace residents.

Seeing her coming, they jumped up like frightened birds and hurriedly came over to salute.

Concubine Pei waved her hand and asked, "Where is Concubine Hui?"

The palace man pointed to the bedroom.

Concubine Pei walked over.

Concubine Hui only wore a middle coat, and her hair was not combed. She just sat blankly in front of the dressing mirror.

It was very cold in the room.

Concubine Pei turned around and said: "Why is it so cold? Get the charcoal basin quickly."

Concubine Hui remained motionless. ...
