Vol 4 Chapter 1407: Changle

Qi Ning was startled, and immediately said: "The minister lost his word and implore the emperor!" Before he finished, Longtai had raised his hand to stop: "I haven't finished."
Qi Ning can only listen to others.
"I started studying when I was very young, because I am a prince, and sooner or later I want to ascend the country to rule the country, so the emperor attaches great importance to my studies." The emperor slowly said: "I still remember that Xiao Shaozong was declared in the palace at that time. For my companion reading, I knew that he was a royal clan, so I was called Brother Shaozong at that time. "
Qi Ning nodded slightly, not much to say.
"I am in the palace, except for the eunuch, only accompanied by Xiao Shaozong, so I have a deep affection for him, and I always thought he was my friend." Long Tai sighed: "But when I think about it now, I may not have done one. Many things that a friend should do are condescending. They do not take into account his feelings, and this is justified. "
Qi Ning knew that Xiao Shaozong could come to today. The environment in his childhood had a great influence on Xiao Shaozong. He said softly: "When I was a child, I was naturally unprecedented."
"I blame him, but I don't hate him." Long Tai smiled bitterly: "At that time, the teacher said to me that the emperor had no personal affairs and wanted to be dedicated to the country, so there would not be any friends, only Junchen." Looking at Qi Ning. , Said: "When you first entered Jinyihoufu, I was close to you, and I didn't really treat you as a friend. I was in a difficult situation at that time, not many people were willing to help me, and you carried the name of Jinyi Qi's family. , Nature has greatly helped me, so I have to reuse you. "
"Beneath the emperor's grace, you can't report if you die!"
Long Tai shook his head and said: "I know what you are thinking at that time. I need you to help me stabilize the throne. You also need me to help you enjoy the glory and wealth. So in my opinion, although you and I also have a friendship, but in the end, but It ’s mutual use. I even thought that if Sima ’s power is growing and I ca n’t suppress it, you will probably go away!

Qi Ning thought that you guessed it right. When I first arrived in Beijing, I really thought so.
"Xi Xi, all of them come for profit, and Xi Xi, all of them go for profit." Long Tai calmly said: "After Xiao Shaozong took control of me, I was already desperate, because I looked up and down, I really can't think of anyone who can fight. Having passed through Xiao Shaozong, I ca n’t think of anyone else who can save my life?
Said with a bitter smile:
I do n’t hide from you. After I was imprisoned, I have given up myself, just waiting for Xiao Shaozong to take my first rank. The prison was taken that day. Open, the girl said that she was doing your best to search and rescue me at your command, and I realized that somebody still missed me in this world. "
Qi Ning was also touched and sighed: "Manchu culture and martial arts are only concealed by Xiao Shaozong, otherwise there will be many loyal to the emperor's courtiers, and will save the emperor at all costs."
Long Tai shook his head and said: "You are wrong, maybe someone will be dissatisfied with Xiao Shaozong's heart, but bet on the life of his family, and I really can't think of anyone else." Staring at Qi Ning, said: "Xiao Shaozong controls the capital, Holding soldiers and fighting against him, I will die for a lifetime. In fact, I already know that you have used the beggar to transfer your family out of Beijing, and you could have gone away. Even if you surrender to Xiao Shaozong, I believe Xiao Shaozong will be very happy But you did n’t leave. You stayed to reverse the world and let me see the sun again.
Raised your hand and patted Qi Ning ’s shoulder with a smile:
I know that you were not because of the minister
Zizi's loyalty will stay, but because he regarded me as a friend. "
Qi Ning hesitated and finally said: "For the sake of courage, the minister can indeed go, but in the heart of the minister, he has always regarded the emperor as a friend. Since he is a friend, he must be loyal, and if he walks away, it will be unkind. Righteous. "
Long Tai nodded and said: "I understand, so I named you King Yiheng, do you know what it means?"
"The emperor is letting his ministers keep their loyalty!"
"You're only half right." Long Tai said: "Not only do you keep your loyalty, but also your own loyalty." Word by word: "You don't bear me, I naturally won't bear you!"
Qi Ning got up and arched his hand: "Chen Ding will swear allegiance to death and always be the emperor's friend."
"You remember today's words." Long Tai said: "No matter what happens in the future, no matter what changes, as long as you blame me, I will never lose to you." I also stood up and said aloud: "I am very I told you a long time ago, I want to create a peaceful world for the people of the world, and you, no matter what happens in the future, remember me and your mission, you and I are still young, so we have enough time to complete our Dream, I do n’t want any change to hinder our ambitions! "
Qi Ning thought that in the words of the emperor, he seemed to be worried about the future. He could only say: "The emperor does not have to worry, you and my princes are in one heart, and Zhongneng can create a peaceful world."
Longtai's lips moved slightly, hesitant to speak, and even a trace of doubts deep in his eyes, but he finally said with a smile: "I believe in you." The eyes at this time are full of firmness.
At this time, he heard the news from outside: "During Qiqi Sheng, Dong Qi Duan Shao and Shen Tuluo have arrived and are waiting for the emperor to summon!"
Qi Ning felt a sigh of relief, but Long Tai smiled at Qi Ning, and ordered: "Xuan!" He returned to the Yu desk and sat down, motioned to Qi Ning to sit down in the chair beside him.
Duan Shao and Shen Tuluo went into the Imperial Study Room in plain clothes. Duan Shao's appearance was obviously not very good, but Shen Tuluo was still a tiger brigade.
Qi Ning suddenly understood why the emperor summoned these two people at this time. Although it was because he met him in his own face, the second reason was that he was protecting him.
Long Tai was able to summon these two people, apparently to appease them. If he was covered with guards inside and outside the Imperial Academy, the emperor would be timid at first, and the other would naturally make the other party a little disgusted, while staying here would make Long Tai seem calm. And, with his own martial arts, he was not afraid that Shen Tuluo would suddenly shoot.
When Duan Shao and Qi Ning saw Qi Ning, they were both stunned, but still stepping forward, Duan Shao hesitated, and finally bowed to Longtai, and Shen Tuluo also performed a salute in the back.
"I summoned you today, not for national affairs, just for family." Long Tai raised his hand to signal that the two were seated, Duan Shao sat down opposite Qi Ning, but Shen Tuluo was standing behind Duan Shao, he naturally expressed this The noble status of Duan Shao.
Qi Ning sneered under his heart, thinking that Qi Guo had already died, and now the life and death of the two were in the hands of Long Tai. Shaking their fingers, the two would separate their heads. At this time, they still put on shelves here. .
"The queen knows that you are in the capital and misses her heart." Long Tai said: "I have promised the queen,
Will treat you kindly. "
Duan Shaodao: "Thank you."
Shen Tuluo finally couldn't help but say: "You and our country are allies, but you can't think of it but betray you, even unexpectedly!"
Before he finished speaking, Long Tai had said: "Mo Ying is your brother?"
When Shen Tuluo was shocked, Long Tai said lightly: "You and I have indeed formed an alliance, but Mo Ying has been making troubles in my Chu Kingdom, and colluded with the rebel thief to plot rebellion. What happened? Who broke the covenant first? ? "
Shen Tu Luo was suddenly dumb.
After the two of them came to the capital, although they had been shrunk in the Huainan Royal Palace, they had been aware of Xiao Shaozong ’s rebellion against them for a few days. Xiao Shaozong's relationship was unusual, knowing that Mo Ying was also involved in this rebellion.
Before, the two didn't know what Mo Ying meant to reverse the overall situation, but now they have fully understood it.
Once Xiao Shaozong successfully succeeded in usurping the throne, of course, there is an agreement with Moying. Among the conditions of Moying, it is very likely that Xiao Shaozong will let Qi State recover.
Unfortunately, everything that followed Xiao Shaozong's failure also vanished.
It is true that Moying was involved in the rebellion, and the little emperor Longtai obviously already knew that Moying was involved, even knowing Moying's true identity. When asked by the little emperor, Shen Tu Luo was suddenly dumb.
"I will no longer pursue these old things today." Long Tai said: "Duan Shao, you are the queen's brother, I look at the face of the queen today, and I bless you as Changle Hou, and if Ruo Shen Tuluo, I will give you Yongan Hou , I will make you prepare a mansion for you in Beijing, I hope you will be loyal to me in the future. "
Shen Tuluo clenched his fists in both hands and immediately said: "I do not accept!"
Qi Ning sneered under his heart, he was already clever, at this time already understood the emperor's meaning.
The world is undecided. Although the state of Qi is annihilated, there is a Han country in the north that is not easy to conquer. After a turmoil on the Chu side, although it quickly settled, it still has a great influence on the frontline battles. Therefore, it is not very likely to settle the northern state after this battle. It is nothing more than occupying some territorial cities in the north. To prepare for the next decisive battle against Han.
In fact, after the Northwest and Qi countries fell into the hands of the Chu State, the balance between the North and the South had long since disappeared, and the South was strong and the North was weak.
But the North didn't take it down after all. The emperor pardoned Duan Shao's death penalty and also named him a marquis. Although there is a queen factor in it, the most fundamental reason is to plan ahead. Take this as an example to show the Northerners.
Since Duan Shao can be a vassal, in the process of conquering the North, it is inevitable that there will be officials from the North Kingdom who will take this idea and surrender to the Chu Kingdom.
It was just that the emperor was not polite to Duan Shao, bluntly because of the queen ’s sake, he was named as the waiter, and he was also named after Changle. Shao ’s humiliation, and the emperor obviously warned Duan Shao with this, he was no longer the Prince of the Eastern Qi, but only a prisoner of the Great Chu Empire.
