Chapter 563： The Empress Dowager Arrives (Second Watch)

Chapter 563 The Empress Dowager Arrives (Second Update)

Wei Ting gave a weak hand, but failed, Emperor Jingxuan stepped back a few steps, staggered and fell.

Eunuch Fu hurried over to help him up: "Your Majesty!"

Emperor Jingxuan looked at the man on the ground in cold sweat: "Is he a human or a ghost?"

If it is a ghost, then it is a ghost who came to seek his life.

Wei Ting had a panoramic view of Emperor Jingxuan's expression, but didn't show it on his face: "It's a man."

Eunuch Fu stepped forward cautiously, probed the other person's breath with his hand, and whispered: "Your Majesty, be brave."

Emperor Jingxuan breathed a sigh of relief, restrained his gaffe just now, and regained his aloof dragon prestige:

"My people saw him buried with their own eyes, why is he still alive?"

Wei Ting sighed: "It was Weichen's grandfather... who rescued him."

Emperor Jingxuan was shocked and furious.

Wei Ting explained: "I didn't know about it in advance, and it was only through the recent investigation of the palace case that the matter was uncovered step by step."

Emperor Jingxuan's eyes clearly flashed a trace of suspicion.

It’s not that he didn’t believe that Lord Wu An saved Nanyang King, but that Wei Ting didn’t know that Nanyang King was still alive.

"Keep talking! I want to hear what story you plan to make up for me!"

Wei Ting did not complain for himself: "The king of Nanyang holds the secret decree of the first emperor, and my grandfather is also loyal to the decree."

Emperor Jingxuan sneered: "What a loyal decree! I am the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty! The secret decree in his hand is false!"

Wei Ting frowned and said: "Your Majesty, the secret decree of King Nanyang is true."

"Wei Ting!"

Wei Ting arched his hands: "Your Majesty, please listen to the minister and finish speaking. The first emperor issued a total of three imperial decrees, the first one was to pass on the secret decree to the King of Nanyang, and the second one was sent to Qin Canglan to enshrine Your Majesty. For the imperial decree of the new emperor."

Emperor Jingxuan asked: "Why did the first emperor do this?"

Wei Ting said: "Because the first emperor discovered the true face of Nanyang King, his eldest son was not as pure and harmless as he imagined. If he ascended the throne, he would become a tyrant, so he appointed His Majesty instead. He was also worried about side effects. He left behind a will to demote the king of Nanyang as a commoner, if he does not keep his duty, he will be killed!"

Emperor Jingxuan was completely shocked.

"He...he is the most beloved eldest son of the late emperor...he..."

Wei Ting's heartbroken face: "Because he loves him so much, he has been kept in the dark all this time. He couldn't see his true face earlier. Your Majesty must have seen it early."

Emperor Jingxuan's eyes flickered: "I, of course, I can see it."

It’s strange for you to see it. You killed all the people in the Nanyang Palace because he was the biggest threat to your throne.

But this is not important, as long as you can accept it.

Wei Ting continued: "I was also investigating He Lianye's case, and overheard his conversation with He Lianye, only to find out that he was the person behind Mo Guiyuan back then, and the chief culprit who killed my grandfather and my father and brother. It's him too!"

"What?" Emperor Jingxuan thought that the previous news was shocking enough, but he never expected that there would be something even more terrifying.

Wei Ting clenched his fists, and said with cold eyes: "Four years ago, because my grandfather accidentally learned the content of the will, he killed my grandfather and my father and brothers to silence... If I was in the capital at that time, I didn't know His existence and the content of the edict, otherwise, based on the trust of the Wei family in him, even if he suddenly appeared alive in front of me, I would have no defense against him, he would kill me... an easy job!"

At this point, Emperor Jingxuan's doubts about Wei Ting were mostly eliminated.

Wei Ting really didn't know, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to live a good life until now.

Emperor Jingxuan took a deep look at Wei Ting and said, "Can I understand what you said to me as...you are surrendering to me?"

Wei Ting gritted his teeth and said, "The revenge of killing father and brother is irrelevant!"

The enemy of the enemy is a friend. This is more reliable than coveting power. Emperor Jingxuan understood Wei Ting's character. If all this is true, the Wei family will never be loyal to Nanyang King!

Emperor Jingxuan showed a smile of Ming Jun: "I... I believe in you, and you can bring people to me, which is enough to show your loyalty."

Wei Ting suddenly knelt down on one knee and presented something with both hands.

Emperor Jingxuan frowned: "This is—"

Wei Ting said: "The soldier talisman was left by my grandfather. I went to Qingzhou for it. The king of Nanyang always wanted it. He didn't kill the minister. Another reason is probably to get this army."

Wei Ting completely confessed.

In fact, Xiao Chonghua had already reminded Su Xiaoxiao that Emperor Jingxuan had found out Wei Ting's purpose for going to Qingzhou, and Wei Ting hadn't taken the initiative to confess, just waiting for a suitable opportunity.

The appearance of King Nanyang right now happened to be the best time.

If it was said that Emperor Xuan Xuan still had a little bit of doubt in the past, now he is completely moved by Wei Ting.

After many years, he finally tamed this rebellious wild horse.

It is true that thanks to Nanyang King’s death, he tried to kill the Wei family but failed to do so, and finally pushed Wei Ting to his side.

He is the Son of Heaven, even God is helping him.

Emperor Jingxuan really helped Wei Ting up this time: "I feel your loyalty. Whatever the Wei family lost, I will return to you!"

The Wei family used to be the Wei family of the late emperor, and he was only loyal to the late emperor. From now on, the Wei family belongs to him.

…

Wei Ting came out of the palace and got into the carriage at the gate of the palace.

Wei Liulang was inside, seeing him, he hurriedly asked, "Xiaoqi, how are you?"

Wei Ting handed him something.

Wei Liulang took it over and took a look: "Soldier Talisman? You didn't hand it in? Didn't you say that you were reluctant to let the child catch the wolf?"

When Wei Ting proposed to show "loyalty" to Emperor Jingxuan with a military talisman, he really broke into a cold sweat.

This is the trump card of the Wei family. The military power of the Wei family has already been divided up. If they lose this private army, they will really become a tiger with its teeth pulled out.

Wei Tingyun said calmly: "Yes, I've got a wolf too, he gave it back to me."

Wei Liulang was stunned: "It's still like this?"

Wei Ting smiled lightly: "I want to express my loyalty, and he wants to convince others with virtue. If you don't even give me this most basic trust, how can you win over me and continue to work for him?"

Wei Liulang suddenly realized: "So he has to give it if he gives it, and he has to give it if he doesn't give it, Xiaoqi, you are sure he won't take the soldier talisman away!"

Wei Ting said: "This is called advancing in order to retreat."

Xiao Qi is really smart, he deserves to be the youngest number one scholar in Da Zhou.

Wei Liulang showed his old father's relief, and when he thought of something, he frowned: "But what if he kills King Nanyang? He doesn't necessarily want the roster. The roster is very important to us. The bargaining chip is just a icing on the cake for him. It’s okay to have it, and it’s harmless to not have it. Anyway, as long as the king of Nanyang dies, his throne will be unshakable. For now, killing the king of Nanyang will never cause future troubles. Excellent strategy."

Wei Ting took a sip of tea: "He can't kill him."

Imperial Palace.

Emperor Jingxuan called two masters from the inner circle to put the King of Nanyang in shackles, and ordered the two of them and Mr. Fu:

"Put him in a dungeon, wake him up, don't recruit him before dawn, kill him immediately! Lest you have long nights and dreams!"

"In addition, this matter must not be publicized, especially not to the ears of the Queen Mother."

As soon as he finished speaking, a message from the **** came from outside:

"The Empress Dowager arrived—"

Ting Ge: Let them fight.

Little Fatty: What about us?

Ting Ge: Eat meat.

Little fat girl: 0.0
