Chapter 96 Transition

The young emperor stood up close, looking at his back with a bit of heroic vigor, but if he turned to look at his face, his eye sockets were slightly sunken, showing a hint of indulgence.

Across from his chessboard sat a monk with a broad face and a square mouth.

But this monk doesn't have the appearance of a monk either. There isn't much kind expression between his eyebrows and eyes, and his figure is also very burly. He has a pair of inverted triangular eyes, and when looking at people, he has a somewhat reckless and fierce aura.

This is the current national teacher, Yuanji Monk.

Xiao Yuan knew that four years ago, Shen Lang was able to ascend to the throne smoothly, and this monk seemed to have contributed a lot. Although he did not receive as much credit as Xie Wei, he was highly trusted by the emperor. In addition, the Empress Dowager favored Buddhism, so he was granted a temple and even appointed as the national teacher of his dynasty.

Compared to him, although Xie Wei is young, he appears somewhat shabby as a young master of the Crown Prince.

Many people from all walks of life compared this monk to Xie Wei.

Xie Wei doesn't know how, but if this monk can succeed, his abilities will definitely be great.

Xiao Yuan dared not be careless. After entering this hall, he added fuel and vinegar and reported all the things he had encountered in the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion one by one. However, when he mentioned Xie Wei in his words, he was a bit hesitant and afraid that his words would make Xie Wei appear in front of the emperor, so he simply did not mention a word.

After finishing, he asked, "Your Highness, how should they deal with those who are bold enough to come here?"

Shen Lang held a chess piece between his fingers, but his narrow and long eyes, resembling those of Shen Lang, instantly darkened. In this dimly lit hall, they appeared even more terrifying, as their gaze fell on Xiao Yuan.

To sum up, although he is an emperor, he should still be called "Uncle" by Xiao Yuan.

However, this uncle handles affairs

There is no difference between being an emperor and going to jail. Although power may seem immense, one must also guard against the influence of the masses. At this time, the knife becomes extremely important. All the dirty and smelly things need to be done by these people. You really need to sit high on it and not get wet in the mud!

Otherwise, what is raising a confidant for?

In other words, if you are a confidant, you must do what your confidant should do! If the confidant in the middle also wants to be a "good person" and doesn't want to cause trouble, they can clean themselves up in such things

It's just that the imperial decree left a missing seal, and this uncle actually said to return to the palace!

Will he not tell the world that he insisted on attacking the Marquis's Mansion this time?

And this is clearly a fear of taking responsibility in this matter.

What a waste!

Shen Lang was determined to have an immediate outburst, but on second thought, considering the Empress Dowager's side, he finally suppressed himself and coldly called out to Wang Xinyi, "Don't ask Chu Xiyi, that old man, to come into the palace while he's recovering. Take your uncle to the Central Secretariat to get the seal and cover it first. The unruly officials and thieves in the Marquis's Mansion must not be lightly spared, and we will all be imprisoned first! Anyone who violates the order will be killed!"

Xiao Yuan immediately said loudly, "Yes!"

He looked at Shen Lang's face, although it was not good, but he only thought that Shen Lang was secretly angry at the resistance of the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion. He couldn't even imagine that Shen Lang was truly dissatisfied with him and the Xiao family, nor could he even imagine where Xie Wei was really trying to persuade him, which was somewhat uplifting.

After the ceremony, they went with Wang Xinyi to take the seal first.

According to the laws of the Great Qian Dynasty, the matter of sealing requires Chu Xiyi to nod his head before it can be done. The available seals are all in the palace, so the seals are also placed in the palace.

Forcefully taking a seal is not something that everyone is just covering up, or even if they feel it's inappropriate in their hearts, no one dares to speak up.

Besides, Chu Xiyi is not here yet?

Xiao Yuan stamped the imperial decree on his side and left, but Shen Lang suddenly flipped the chessboard in the main hall and gritted his teeth, saying, "I am happy to take action against the Marquis's Mansion, but this appearance secretly prevents me from using it as a leverage to take action against them in the future."

The emperor is naturally not wrong.

Even without a big seal, it can be said that it was a moment of extreme anger and heart wrenching. But if Xiao Yuan already knew that the seal of the Central Secretariat had not been stamped, and he had to follow the imperial decree and even launch a large-scale killing campaign against the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion, then Xiao Yuan would provoke criticism and this matter would become a leverage in the future.

As long as Shen Lang thinks, he can put Xiao Shi to death!

The Round Machine Monk sat opposite him and saw the chessboard fall to the ground, with pieces scattered all over the ground, without any panic. He stood with one hand on his chest and only smiled, "Does the Holy One really mean this?"

Shen Lang turned his eyes to look at him, only to slowly fade away.

He stood up, paced, and stood at the entrance of the palace, looking at the heavy palace gates under the white jade steps. He smiled coldly and said, "That's true. It's not their fault for being vigilant. The Yongyi Marquis's Mansion has been eliminated, and the next one is the Xiao family. The only royal family in this world stands out, what two great aristocratic families!"

*

Worshiping ancestors, adding crowns, and selecting characters.

After completing the etiquette, a coronation ceremony also came to an end.

The Yan family, led by Yan Mu, offered various gifts such as gold, silver, calligraphy, and ink to Xie Wei as a token of gratitude. They also made Yan perform the ritual of worshipping three times, and from then on, they regarded Xie Wei as their leader, which was considered the end.

At the end of the ceremony, Yan Lin also bowed and bowed to everyone in the Silent Hall, saying, "Today, all the adults and old friends are in danger. It's like sending charcoal in the snow. Yan Hui will always remember this sentiment!"

The original youth can now be called a true man.

Everyone knows that today's disaster may not be good, so they all sigh in their hearts and return gifts one after another.

Xie Wei watched from the side, but was somewhat lost in thought.

Most civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty have this feeling——

The emperor obeyed his young master's orders.

But in fact, it's not the case. It's just because every time he says something, he can hit Shen Lang's heart, and he hasn't stopped saying anything that doesn't hit his heart. This is what gives people this illusion.

After this illusion, no one in the civil and military circles of the Manchu Dynasty would want to offend him.

Including Xiao Yuan.

===Kunning Section 124===

But he could use his understanding of the emperor to trick others: firstly, Xiao Yuan was the emperor's uncle, and secondly, he came from the Xiao family, thinking that he was close to the emperor, but perhaps he couldn't imagine where the emperor's true taboo was.

However, precisely because of his special position, the position of junior teacher has no real power. Compared to the less prominent national teacher, Yuanji Monk is obviously slightly inferior, but once he has real power, it will attract fear.

Without real power, some things are ultimately beyond our capabilities.

Moreover, the power of instinctive mobilization is also constrained by the Heavenly Cult behind it

Tongzhou Camp mutiny!

He had already sent people to set up defenses and intercept outside the gates of various cities in Tongzhou, killing anyone. The people in the military camp were unaware of the news, and what kind of "mutiny" came from somewhere!

A fierce aura quietly climbed up in the dark.

There was another commotion outside, and it was Xiao Yuan who finally returned with the sealed decree.

No one can say anything this time.

Although some people feel that this is too fast and easy, the seals are all there. This kind of speculation cannot be true or false. If we speak for the Marquis's Mansion again, we are afraid that it will not only ignite the fire but also harm the Marquis's Mansion, so we all remain silent.

This gave Xiao Yuan a feeling of punching cotton.

He angrily ordered the arrest.

The guards of the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion all looked at Yan Mu. Yan Mu waved his hand, indicating that they did not need to resist and let the iron chains and shackles bind everyone up and down in the Marquis's Mansion.

However, when two soldiers came up with shackles and were about to strangle Yan Mu's neck, Zhang Zhe, who was standing not far away, furrowed his brows lightly and said calmly, "If you don't punish me, I won't be a doctor."

Xiao Yuan's nose was twisted with anger.

Two soldiers stared blankly at Xiao Yuan.

Xiao Yuan was scheming to make this surnamed Zhang look good again in the future, but at this moment he could only vent his anger on someone else. Therefore, he burst out and cursed, "Didn't you hear me?! If you don't punish me, the doctor will take me away! Is there something wrong with your brain?"

Two soldiers were inexplicably scolded with a disheveled face, so they had to withdraw their shackles.

Yan Mu once again looked at the unfamiliar head of the Ministry of Justice's Department of Justice, and couldn't help but smile at Zhang Zhe. He walked straight out of the hall, following the others in the mansion.

Yan Lin is still a little behind.

As he walked past Jiang Xuening, his heart was filled with excitement, but he still couldn't hold back.

Go to the gossip of his ancestors!

At this moment, he just wants to unleash his heart!

Surprisingly, in front of everyone's eyes, he reached out and hugged her tightly, then blinked and said, "Let's go, Miss Jiang. Please help me put away the sword."

Jiang Xuening was completely stunned.

However, before she could react, Yan Lin had already stepped out of the door.

The once bustling Marquis's Mansion suddenly fell into desolation and desolation.

A moment ago, the coronation ceremony was in full swing, and the guests were in the hall. Now, it's a mess of cups and plates, and the fate is unpredictable!

Oh my goodness.

Why is she so cruel to her youth?

Jiang Xuening thought to herself that she wouldn't be allowed to stay in the capital in the future. She just hugged her and didn't care about her reputation.

If anyone really likes her in the future, will they still mind if this doesn't work out?

Thinking of the past and the future for a moment, my expression became melancholic. Accidentally lifting his head, he met a pair of cold eyes.

Zhang Zhe had been looking at her unconsciously for a long time.

It wasn't until she also raised her head and met her gaze that he realized this.

She wanted to be the empress like that. In the previous life, she worked hard, worked hard, and was reborn. She already knew who the ultimate winner was. Now, seeing the old story turn around, General Yan will not follow the same path as in the previous life. She still has a deep affection for her, which is probably satisfying, right?

But he couldn't be relieved.

Before coming to this muddy water, I already understood; But now that it's done, on the contrary

He has no deep friendship with all the adults here.

Seeing that Xiao Yuan and a group of soldiers were already "inviting" everyone to leave in preparation for the next attack on the Marquis's Mansion, Zhang Zhe finally looked up and saw the gradually growing goose feather like snow outside. He didn't want to say hello to anyone, so he turned around and walked towards the outside.

At that moment, Jiang Xuening suddenly remembered Zhang Zhe from the previous life.

This person is extremely fond of rain.

But her surname carries the word "snow", so when she first learned of such a person who refused to enter the Qianqing Palace during the winter, she happened to encounter him and asked him arrogantly, "Since Mr. Zhang likes rain so much and has to walk with this palace on such a snowy day, should he really dislike me?"

At that time, Zhang Zhe did not answer.

But Jiang Xuening assumes that he is disliked.

Later, the Tianjiao Rebel Party assassinated the emperor, causing her to suffer hardships. When she was hiding under the thatched cottage with Zhang Zhe, it was raining outside. So she asked him again, "Mr. Zhang likes rain so much, but now he is watching it under the same roof as me. I think you know that the name of this palace still has the word 'snow', so it must be very annoying, right?"

Zhang Zhe didn't speak either.

Jiang Xuening, just like the previous question, assumed that he disliked it.

But after waiting for a long time, when she was lost in thought as she looked at the falling rain curtain outside, she heard a voice beside her saying, "Not really."

Is there nothing else?

I don't like watching the rain that much, I don't know if she has the word "snow" in her name, or

Not that annoying?

At that moment, she felt a rare unease, her slightly hot heart beating vividly in her chest. She really wanted to go back and confirm if it was his answer, and she really wanted to ask again. Didn't she hate me so much?

But she still held the golden footwork she had picked off from her head not long ago in her hand.

Phoenix spits tassels, shining brightly in the eyes.

At that moment, she deeply pierced her eyes and realized that she was a queen. Once she really crossed a certain line, waiting for her and Zhang Zhe, everything would be irreparable.

She became fearful and cowardly.

She dare not ask deeply.

It rained for a long time that day, but Jiang Xuening hoped for the first time that it could have a lifetime, right in the mountains and outside the thatched cottage, never to end.

*

The guests have finally scattered clean.

Yan Lin said, Miss Jiang, help me put away my sword.

So before leaving, Jiang Xuening put the sword she had brought with her into the sword box. When she picked it up, she felt that the sword had sunk a bit more, and the cold light covering her head reflected the sorrow of the world.

Someone has arrived in the palace, please pick up Shen Zhiyi first.

Shen Zhiyi was too lazy to talk much and went on her own.

Xiao Shu walked behind a bit, but before leaving, she looked at Jiang Xuening and said with a cold smile, "I never saw before that Miss Jiang Er had such great abilities when she was in danger."

Jiang Xuening said calmly, "If I hadn't been in danger, I wouldn't have known I had such great abilities."

Yao Xi and Chen Shuyi both stood beside Xiao Shu, mocking her.

Xiao Shu brushed her sleeves and left.

She and the others followed suit.

When Zhou Baoying left, she looked at Jiang Xuening with a worried expression and wanted to say something to her. However, not long after Chen Shuyi and others walked over, they turned around and called out to her. She had no choice but to shut her mouth and follow along.

The snow in winter is falling heavily enough.

In the blink of an eye, pavilions, towers, corridors, and mountain walls were all covered in white.

When Jiang Xuening came out, she stood at the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion and looked back. However, she saw that the sky was gloomy and oppressive that day, with dark clouds shrouded in a haze. Perhaps her mood today was different from her previous life, and she felt that there was a small gap of sky light on the edge of the dark clouds, which would eventually clear up after the snow.

Xie Wei is still behind Jiang Xuening.

As she was watching, he walked out of the door.

The two eyes met.

Jiang Xuening remained silent and didn't know what to say.

Xie Wei looked out at the white street outside, and the carriages inside left clear tracks on it, but soon they were covered in heavy snow.

When he walked past Jiang Xuening and was preparing to return to the mansion, he actually had nothing in mind.

Even numb.

However, as she walked out, her hands, which had just been folded in front of her, came to mind. Finally, she remembered something and stopped, turning back to her head with some fatigue, saying, "Come here."

Jiang Xuening had not yet realized that "Xie Wei had actually taken care of herself" and was stunned. She instinctively said, "I need to go back to the palace."

Xie Wei looked at her.

Jiang Xuening suddenly woke up and quickly followed up.

The Xie Mansion is located next to the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion, separated by a wall and not far away.

Xie Wei walked ahead, and Jiang Xuening couldn't see his expression. He only heard him ask, "Do you still like Zhang Zhe?"

Jiang Xuening then remembered the look Zhang Zhe had taken at her earlier.

She opened her mouth, lowered her head, and slowly said after a while, "How can you not like it?"

He is worth it.

Xie Wei seemed to have a moment of silence before finally saying, "Don't deceive the darkroom, be as defensive as a city. It's just too cold and too straight, but it's okay."

It's also good.

What does it mean, okay?

Jiang Xuening was actually a bit puzzled, but listening to the previous words, she felt like Xie Wei had approved Zhang Zhe, so she felt a slight warmth in her heart, and for some reason, there was a kind of joy and honor.

Even Xie Wei walked into the Xie Mansion with her, but she didn't pay attention.

In the Zhuo Qin Hall, Lv Xian was filled with fire, pondering what the damn You Fangyin was up to with this move. He couldn't help but pace back and forth in the room.

At this moment, someone outside shouted "Sir", indicating that Xie Wei had returned.

As he looked up, he saw Xie Wei entering the door and was about to complain. Unexpectedly, his eyes were wrong and his eyelids twitched. He saw a petite little girl following behind Xie Wei. In that moment, his thoughts were shattered and he almost bit off his tongue. "You actually brought a woman back to the mansion?"
