The two generals who were left outside by Rong Zhen were named Zhan and Feng. Seeing that Rong Zhen and his men had not come out for a long time, General Zhan could not help but muttered, "Nothing will happen in here, right?"
General Feng was older than him. Seeing that he was so impatient, he said, "Don't worry, it's okay."
"Why are you so sure, brother Feng?"
General Feng chuckled, "Don't worry, as long as the King of Wei is not crazy, he will not kill anyone in the Taimiao." Although he was sure of this, General Feng still had some worries on his face. It was because Rong Zhen and his men had been in there for too long. Even if the King of Wei would not risk the whole world's condemnation to harm the King of Chu in the Taimiao, what if he was really so crazy?
General Feng was unsure and had no mood to chat with General Zhan. The two stood in silence outside the Imperial Ancestral Temple, staring at each other. But at this moment, General Zhan saw a figure approaching the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
When the person approached, General Zhan recognized that the person was Jian Yu, the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery. Jian Yu's attitude was a bit strange. When the King of Wei took control of Yanjing, Luo Xian had an ambiguous attitude and was obviously leaning towards the King of Wei. But later, Rong Zhen was saved by Jian Yu. This was too strange.
Even though he was a little bit worried, General Zhan still smiled and greeted Jian Yu: "Loyal and Brave Marquis, what can I do for you?"
Jian Yu nodded slightly: "Hello, Generals." But he did not really greet them, but walked directly into the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
General Zhan suddenly widened his eyes and couldn't help but said: "Lord Jian, this is the Imperial Ancestral Temple!"
But Jian Yu seemed to be deaf to his words, and his figure gradually disappeared in the dark environment of the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
General Zhan was still in shock and couldn't help but ask Han Zhu, "Why didn't you stop him just now?"
Han Zhu looked at him with a smile, "Why should I stop him?"
"Not only the royal family can enter the Taimiao..." General Zhan suddenly came to his senses and looked at Jian Yu's disappearing back in shock. He stammered, "He... could it be... he..."
Han Zhu curled his lips sarcastically, but did not answer him. Instead, he looked at the Taimiao, which was like a giant beast in the dark, like him, and gradually became absent-minded.
Jian Yu's footsteps echoed in the Imperial Temple. When he pushed open the tightly closed door, he not only brought in the sunlight, but also suddenly awakened the people who were shocked by the truth for a long time.
The King of Wei was not surprised to see Jian Yu here. After knowing that Yu Ke betrayed him, he knew who was working for Yu Ke. Compared with the angry Han Zhu, the King of Wei did not have much feeling. The King of Wei did like Gao Jinwen at first, but everything that happened later disrupted his plan. Compared with his little love for Gao Jinwen, he decisively chose revenge.
Later, Gao Jinwen struggled to hold on, but after knowing his choice that year, he committed suicide in despair.
After hearing the news, the King of Wei sat on the roof and watched all night, but the next morning, his weakness had disappeared, and he was still the cold and foresighted King of Wei.
The King of Wei was proud of the son Gao Jinwen gave birth to for him. He watched Jian Yu walk step by step to where he is today. Because he was afraid that Jian Yu and Decheng Hou would have too many unnecessary feelings, Decheng Hou did not dare to care too much about Jian Yu at the suggestion of the King of Wei. The King of Wei watched him become a terrifying lone wolf step by step.
Only with such a temperament can one not be burdened by external things and become a person who really does great things.
In fact, if Rong Zhen grew up according to the King of Wei's idea, he might really become the person he expected, but it was a pity that he met Lu Zheng.
At that time, Lu Zheng was still the arrogant Third Young Master Lu in Yanjing City. He was like a stone thrown into Jian Yu's peaceful heart. The King of Wei watched his son gradually become humane. Even though he always frowned at Lu Zheng and always showed indifference to Lu Zheng, the King of Wei knew that Jian Yu was moved. No
one knows a son better than his father. The King of Wei saw Jian Yu's heart before Jian Yu, so he acted decisively.
This matter was done secretly, and Lu Xun and others could not find any clues at all. It was just that the King of Wei did not expect that Lu Zheng was not dead. Not only was he not dead, he even had contact with Rong Zhen.
But no matter what, Jian Yu finally became what he wanted.
Jian Yu looked around and said calmly, "It seems that I came at the right time."
Zhao Xueqian already knew his fate at this time, and was the most relaxed one. After hearing Jian Yu's words, he smiled and said, "It is indeed the right time. When His Royal Highness the King of Chu kowtows, you will also kowtow."
Yu Ke glanced at Jian Yu, but did not say much.
The King of Wei suddenly took a step forward. His action made everyone react differently, but he just walked towards Jian Yu.
Jian Yu's appearance was like his mother Gao Jinwen, but he still vaguely resembled the young King of Wei, not to mention the pair of phoenix eyes that were unique to the Rong family. However, at this moment, those eyes looked at the King of Wei who was slowly approaching, but there was no wavering, as if the man in front of him was not his father, but just a stranger.
The King of Wei came over and just straightened his collar for him.
Jian Yu was shocked, but he controlled himself and did not retreat. He looked at the King of Wei as he straightened his collar, and then said, "I have let you and your mother down a lot over the years."
Jian Yu's turbulent emotions calmed down at once. He looked at the King of Wei's graying temples, and suddenly said, "Have you ever regretted anything over the years?"
The King of Wei answered without thinking, "No."
Jian Yu looked at him again, and then said softly, "Then I won't regret it either." I regret my choice."
The King of Wei suddenly laughed: "That's it! This is my son!" As he said, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Rong Zhen, "Now that you know your identity, can you still ascend the throne on the body of your mother with peace of mind?"
At this moment, Qian Facao, who had not spoken, spoke: "Your Highness the King of Wei, if Master Le Chen had not miscalculated people back then, I'm afraid you would not have such ambitions, right?"
The King of Wei was stunned and looked at Qian Facao with lightning eyes.
Lawyer Qian was not afraid, and continued, "Master Le Chen calculated that Madam Hongye had the fate of a phoenix. She was not originally an empress. The only possibility was that her son became the emperor and she became the empress dowager. However, your brother Emperor Wude was on the throne at that time. You have been preparing for many years, isn't it for this prophecy?"
Qian Zhao was not just a law officer. His real identity was the commander of Emperor Wude's Black Armor Guard. Perhaps no one knew the events of that year better than him. Rong Zhen had been born at that time, and Emperor Wude wanted to make him the crown prince. Le Chen's prophecy was not wrong, but it was leaked and became a seed that bred the ambitions of King Wei.
After Emperor Wude died, Facao Qian destroyed all the relevant case files. After Emperor Yongning ascended the throne, he took the opportunity to eliminate the remnants of King Wei and killed many people who knew the truth. Among them, the only two who survived were Princess Shanyang, Luo Hong and Lan Jingyi.
So after Luo Hong and Lan Jingyi died, Facao Qian finally realized that the truth could no longer be hidden.
Qian Zhao looked at King Wei and said word by word: "Your Highness King Wei, you want to kill King Chu, is it for the reputation of Madam Hongye or for your own ambition?"
King Wei narrowed his eyes, bent his hands into claws and grabbed Qian Zhao directly.
Qian Zhao was also the leader of the Black Armor Guards, so he would not be easily controlled by him. He just shook his body slightly to avoid the King of Wei's move. But before he could say another word, he suddenly widened his eyes and looked at the tip of a knife sticking out of his chest.
Qian Zhao looked back with difficulty, but the King of Wei had already broken his neck.
Zhao Xueqian let go of the knife in his hand and wiped the blood off his face seemingly unintentionally. This is the Imperial Temple, where the royal family worships their ancestors. On weekdays, not even a little dust is allowed, let alone killing people here?
But everyone present was indifferent.
After Zhao Xueqin finished this task, he suddenly laughed softly: "I thought the imperial power was supreme, but it turns out it's just like this." He did not look at Qian Zhao who was lying on the ground, nor did he look at King Chu and Lu Zheng. He just stared at Jian Yu and said word by word, "Please don't forget your promise. Even if I am a traitor and a bandit, and no one worships me, I will still be myself." Jian Yu
nodded: "I will never let you down."
Zhao Xueqin seemed to be relieved. His face changed, and dark blood oozed from the corners of his mouth. The blood dripped down his chin to the ground, and then his body fell to the ground like the blood that could not be stopped, but the corners of his mouth were raised, and he looked very peaceful.
The deaths of Qian Zhao and Zhao Xueqian did not move the three people at the center of the incident. Lu Zheng closed his eyes. He could not imagine that the so-called truth would be like this. Now that Qian Zhao and Zhao Xueqian are dead, who will be the next one?
However, at this moment, the King of Wei suddenly turned around and attacked Rong Zhen. Although Rong Zhen was shocked by the truth, he was not completely unaware. So after discovering the King of Wei's actions, he drew his long sword and blocked it directly. However, no one expected that the target of his sword was not Rong Zhen, but Lu Zheng standing behind Rong Zhen.
Lu Zheng watched the tip of the sword approaching him rapidly. He could even feel the chill emanating from it, but his body could not move. At this moment, a hand tightly grasped the blade in front of him.
Blood gushed out instantly and fell to the ground.
Rong Zhen's expression remained unchanged, but he refused to retreat at all.
Jian Yu did not expect the King of Wei to do this. After being angry, he wanted to rush over to stop him, but he saw the King of Wei's body shook violently. With the sound of the blade falling to the ground, Jian Yu saw the foam gushing out of the King of Wei's mouth. He could no longer care about anything else and rushed over to catch the King of Wei before he fell to the ground.
The King of Wei looked at Lu Zheng who was anxiously bandaging Rong Zhen with a handkerchief, and said weakly in Jian Yu's ear: "Silly...silly child, he died a long time ago...I saw him die with my own eyes...This is not...this is not..."
Jian Yu froze in place, and his hand that was about to wipe the blood from the corner of the King of Wei's mouth also stopped.
The King of Wei seemed not to care: "...I also ate...'scorpion', I can't live anymore...at least...I still do one thing for you..."
Jian Yu watched the King of Wei put the jade seal, which was still warm from his body, into his hand. His eyes began to fade, but he still struggled to say: "...Be a...good emperor..."
On the ninth day of the eighth month of the twentieth year of Yongning, the King of Wei Rong You died, and the King of Chu was nowhere to be found. The King of Wei, Prince Yu, ascended the throne and changed the reign title to -
Yanhe.
The author has something to say: Well, the main text ends here, and there are two more extra chapters to come, so I’m done with it~
When I typed the three words “finale”, I felt like I breathed a sigh of relief. This article started on November 30th, and it has been exactly four months today. Although there are still many bugs in the article, I am still very happy that I still finished the ending as I expected.
In this way, I can also respond to the previous questions.
The names I gave to the protagonists in the article are not random, they are all meaningful, and they can be regarded as small foreshadowings.
The word "Zheng" in Lu Zheng means to question, inquire, verify, and prove, which implicitly fits his behavior of solving cases.
The word "Zhen" in Rong Zhen means to move the gods with sincerity and get blessings. Maybe to others he is a bad seed, a scandal, but to Madam Hongye and Emperor Wude, it is a gift from God. He is actually the most laborious character I created, and I have many selfish desires for him, so I feel a little disappointed when I see that many people don't like him. Maybe his final ending is not good in the eyes of many people, and he is only one step away from the throne, but for him, this is probably the best ending.
The word "Yu" in "Jian Yu" was guessed by a little angel before, which means "redundant", but this is only one meaning. "Yu" means "I", which means "I am the only one". From the beginning of this novel, his fate was also determined. He will not be the male protagonist, and will not be with Lu Zheng, but he is the one who finally ascends the throne.
Of course, these are just my own little interests, and I don't think many people will be interested in them, but I still want to post them, just like a child giving away treasures, I hope you don't mind.
Finally, thank you all for your support along the way, thank you for writing comments, and thank you my rich people, it is you who support me to write this article bit by bit, thank you!
