Chapter 51

After autumn, the original green leaves, gradually yellow, have fallen from the tree.

The courtyard of the general's mansion is full of leaves, and the servants can't clean it. Chu Tingxiu simply told people not to clean it, and let the martial arts arena be covered with leaves, but there was no scenery.

Today, there was no court meeting. Chu Tingxiu was relieved. He trained in the martial arts arena early in the morning. With his long spear, the yellow leaves were scattered and scattered, just like countless yellow butterflies flying in the air.

For a long time, he had not practiced the gun freely. After a fight, he was not only physically relaxed, but also in a much better mood. He did not reject that group of stubborn things that he had to deal with tomorrow.

Chu Tingxiu paid homage to the general, granted the northern Marquis of the town, and took charge of the troops and horses of the whole country. However, he always felt a headache when facing those civil servants who could not fight with each other.

Chu Tingxiu's grandfather, along with the emperor Taizu, laid down thousands of Li rivers and mountains in the great Qi Dynasty. After that, he was granted the title of Marquis of Zhenbei, guarding the north. Chu Tingxiu also grew up in the north.

He lived on horseback when he was a child. He developed a martial arts skill with his father. He fought with the Rong people all the year round and made him use the military like a God. However, at the age of seventeen or eighteen, he had become a young general respected by all in the frontier.

If there was no accident, he would have lived in Beidi all the time just like his father, guarding the frontier for Daqi.

But something happened.

Emperor Taizu hurt his body when he was fighting in the early years. He died a few years after he ascended the throne. After his death, the former Emperor succeeded him.

The former Emperor was cowardly, not born by the empress of emperor Tai Zu, but the empress was also a strange woman who was not weaker than the founding emperor.

After the first emperor ascended the throne, the power was always in the hands of the Empress Dowager.

Although the former Emperor became an emperor, he lived a miserable life. He was also a man of many thoughts. Naturally, his life was not long, and eventually he died early.

At this time, the empress dowager, from the descendants of the former Emperor, chose the present-day emperor as the emperor. At that time, the emperor was only ten years old.

After she ascended the throne today, the affairs of the imperial court were all in the hands of the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager vigorously promoted her mother family and eradicated her dissidents, so that her mother family, Zhou, was superior to Yan.

This undoubtedly made the court complain, but also let those who followed the emperor Taizu to fight against the mountains and rivers with soldiers and horses ready to move, and finally there was a rebellion.

Chu Tingxiu's father, Hou chucheng, a former Zhenbei Hou chucheng, was a somewhat rigid man who was loyal to the royal family. He was ordered to help pacify the world in times of crisis, but he died accidentally in the war. Finally, Chu Tingxiu, who was only 20 years old, took charge of the Chu family.

He was young and vigorous. He did not stick to the form of military, but quickly pacified the world. His Zhenbei army was hammered into a division of tigers and wolves in the war.

At the age of 23, Chu Tingxiu was solemnly welcomed into the capital.

He was most impatient to deal with the civil servants. He was uncomfortable at that time, so he only wanted to leave early and return to Beidi.

It's a pity to see the emperor for life.

Chu Tingxiu still remembers that day, wearing the official uniform sent by the Ministry of rites, he walked into the hall, looked up and saw him sitting on a dragon chair, looking at his emperor curiously.

Four eyes opposite, he actually forgot to salute, was reminded, just in a hurry to bow down.

Although it was just a glance, he had already seen the emperor on the Dragon chair.

His majesty is three years younger than him. He has just reached the crown, but he is thin and weak. He is only fifteen or six years old.

He was handsome, but the whole person was weak, and his eyebrows were full of sorrow. Chu Tingxiu wanted to reach out and smooth his brow.

Chu Tingxiu didn't know why he had such a rebellious idea, but he did.

He wanted to leave Beijing early. He stayed with the Empress Dowager and began to understand the complicated situation in the capital city. Only then did he know that everything in the holy land was in the hands of the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager wanted the Zhenbei army in his hands, but failed to win over him several times. Now she contacted him and asked him for help

Half a year after entering Beijing, Chu Tingxiu eradicated all the people of the Zhou family where the Empress Dowager lived. The empress dowager, who had been a puppet for a long time, was sent to the Buddhist temple. Today, who was only a puppet, has finally become a real emperor.

Chu Tingxiu had some rebellious thoughts about the man sitting on the throne, but he never dared to reveal that he wanted to retire after success. He did not want to be a saint today. He was raised by the Empress Dowager and didn't know a few words!

Today, I can't understand even the story, let alone deal with other things. There are many old officials in the court who look down on his majesty. In addition, although the Zhou family was removed, but in order to make the court work, Chu Tingxiu couldn't cut the roots. The Empress Dowager has been in charge of the government for several decades. At that time, most of the people in the court had something to do with the Zhou family!

Today, he is in a difficult position in the imperial court, so we can only turn to him for help.

Chu Tingxiu couldn't leave under such circumstances. He had to brave his head and help him deal with all kinds of affairs. He also invited famous scholars to teach him.

He used to be a military general, but he didn't like to deal with these things, but now his throne is unstable, so he can only help him.So far, a year has passed.

Throwing the spear on the weapon rack, Chu Tingxiu bathed and changed clothes, ready to enter the palace.

Although there is no early Dynasty today, he still needs to go into the palace to look after it, so as not to make mistakes in dealing with the memorial.

Chu Tingxiu was in a good mood when he thought that he would not have to argue with others in the court, but could see his own thoughts. Chu Tingxiu was in a good mood until he met his stepmother's sister Chu Tinglan when he went out.

Seeing Chu Tinglan, Chu Tingxiu's heart sank.

When the Empress Dowager was in charge of the government, he did not allow him to marry. However, when the Empress Dowager collapsed, people in the imperial court from time to time proposed to let this emperor rise to the throne.

Chu Tinglan is the most favored candidate. Chu Tinglan himself is very fond of today's society. He even proposes to Chu Tingxiu that he wants to marry Jin Shang.

Chu Tingxiu had no reason to obstruct him. Just a few days ago, he, like other people, asked for the present to be established.

He didn't want to go to the early Dynasty, because every time he was in the morning, someone asked him to marry today.

As long as he thought that there would be a queen today, he was as miserable as ants gnawing at his heart.

But his majesty is the emperor. Sooner or later, there will be other imperial concubines besides the queen.

"Big brother." Seeing Chu Tingxiu, Chu Tinglan made a salute.

Chu Tingxiu's stepmother was born in a big family. After marriage with her father, she couldn't get used to living in the north. She took Chu Tinglan to live in the capital city and raised Chu Tinglan like her. She was a knowledgeable and reasonable young lady.

Chu Tingxiu always did not know how to get along with his sister. Recently, he was so jealous that he felt miserable when he saw her. But no wonder his sister

He's the only one to blame. He's an unfaithful and disgusting bastard.

Chu Tingxiu fought all the year round. He was not angry and arrogant. He was also good at hiding his emotions. At this time, he reluctantly showed a relaxed expression: "what's the matter?"

Chu Tingxiu's attitude in Chu Tinglan's eyes was really cold, which made her dissatisfied. She lowered her head to cover her expression and took out a purse from her waist.

When she looked up again, her face was only shy. She handed the purse to Chu Tingxiu. Chu Tinglan said, "brother, I embroidered a purse for your majesty."

Chu Tingxiu breath stagnation: "it's not good to bring things to the palace."

"Brother, if you bring something into the palace, it will be OK." The orchid road of Chu Ting, with a little pleading, looked at Chu Tingxiu: "big brother..."

After all, Chu Tingxiu took the purse.

He put his purse into his arms. Chu Tingxiu hurried into the palace. Knowing that his Majesty was in class, he went to see several assistant ministers.

Those ministers were elected by Chu Tingxiu and were loyal to the emperor. Unfortunately, they did not treat him very well. They had a lot of opinions about him. He was not happy with them.

Fortunately, in less than half an hour, his majesty finished his class and asked him to have dinner with him.

Chu Tingxiu was often invited by his majesty to have dinner together. He was used to it, but he still felt happy.

He took out a handkerchief, rubbed his face with water, adjusted his clothes, and came to his majesty.

This year, without the control of the empress dowager, the emperor has grown a lot of meat. He no longer looks like a thin bamboo pole before, and his appearance is more and more handsome.

When Chu Tingxiu saw him, he was very happy, but he had to spit on himself.

"Aiqing, this is the peach blossom wine just sent from Jiangnan. Please try it." Today, the emperor took out a wine pot and poured a glass of wine to Chu Tingxiu.

Chu Tingxiu was flattered, and his voice trembled a little: "Your Majesty..."

"Have a try, Aiqing." The emperor looked at Chu Tingxiu with a smile.

Chu Tingxiu's throat was thirsty, and he took up his glass and drank it.

The wine is a little too sweet and greasy, with a bitter taste in it.

No, it's not bitter. It's The smell of overpowering drugs.

Chu Tingxiu was struck by thunder for a while.

He had experienced a lot of big waves and storms. He did not know how many times he had been assassinated. He knew all kinds of drugs that were abusive. He could taste them once he tasted them. He was drugged in his wine.

Go to see again, when his majesty poured wine for himself, he turned the lid of the pot as expected.

For a time, Chu Tingxiu's breath was not smooth and his heart beat faster.

The strength of the overpowering drug did not come up so quickly. At this moment, he was sober as never before.

The Empress Dowager has lost her power, but the depression between her Majesty's brows has not disappeared Is it all because of him?

Does your majesty hate the Empress Dowager at first, but does he now?

Yes, now the whole court is almost under his control, and he still has a lot of control over his majesty

From ancient times to the present, a man of great power like him has never come to a good end. He is afraid that he is no exception.

Since his majesty has put medicine in his wine, he should have left other followers and wanted to keep him. At this moment, he has two choices.

One is to hijack your majesty and break through the door. There is a way out.

But after that, what should he do?Did you completely imprison your majesty? In this way, his Majesty must hate him to the bone.

In the end, this world is the world of Yan family. Other people will not obey him, and there will be war again. He is not sure that he can become the final winner.

Or Is that what your majesty wants?

He should not have lived for such a dirty minded man. He cooperated with his majesty, and his majesty should be able to let his family go.

Your majesty, they're not happy at all?

"Have a few more drinks, Aiqing." The emperor poured another glass of wine for Chu Tingxiu.

Chu Tingxiu took the glass and drank it down. He lowered his voice and said, "Your Majesty, my family members and military colleagues are loyal to your majesty. If your majesty wants the court to be stable, you can't kill again."

The emperor, who was sitting opposite Chu Tingxiu's face changed greatly. He hid in a hurry and did not want to knock down the stool and fall to the ground.

Chu Tingxiu subconsciously wanted to pull: "Your Majesty..."

Your majesty At the same time, a group of armed soldiers suddenly appeared in the room. All the swords and bows were aimed at Chu Tingxiu.
