Chapter 9: My brother is so kind, yet I still have second thoughts



The time when Prince Yan became a fief.

It's scheduled for two days later.

Because Wei Yunyi was afraid of the long night and many dreams.

Rather than delaying any further, it is better to cut the Gordian knot.

The officials of the imperial court were naturally dissatisfied with this and wrote letters to the emperor to make suggestions.

During this period, he experienced a confrontation with the censors, but in the end the censors were unable to defeat Wei Yunyi.

After all, he was the emperor, and since it involved the imperial family, he could make the final decision. Furthermore, he had the support of Empress Dowager Sun, so even if some people disagreed, they could only give up temporarily.

Just like that, two days later, the Prince of Yan, who had been detained for three years in the name of mourning, finally left.

At this time, they were about thirty miles away from the capital, on a wide official road.

Dozens of carriages moved forward one after another, accompanied by servants and retainers.

There were also teams of soldiers in armor.

Because there are a lot of goods.

So the progress is not fast.

And in the most central and luxurious carriage,

Wei Yuanchuan pulled open the curtains and looked at the scenery outside with a dazed look in his eyes.

He didn't expect that he would actually get out and leave the capital of the Wei Dynasty, which was regarded as a cage.

"This king is already on the way to his fiefdom?" Wei Yuanchuan muttered to himself, still unable to believe it.

In the past three years, he asked his mother to beg the emperor brother many times.

But the other party has been making excuses for various reasons.

There is absolutely no intention of letting go.

Later, Wei Yuanchuan thought that he would be trapped in the capital for the rest of his life.

To this end, he even secretly developed his power and won over people's hearts.

Just to escape one day.

But now, the opponent suddenly let him go back to his fiefdom, and all these hidden chess pieces were completely wasted before he could use them.

"Your Majesty!"

At this time, behind the carriage.

A man in black came over on horseback and bowed.

"What's the matter?" Wei Yuanchuan asked as soon as he saw the other party.

This person is his personal guard, who is loyal and has extremely strong tracking ability.

Long before leaving the capital, Wei Yuanchuan was worried about his brother the emperor, who did not really want to let him go to his fiefdom.

That’s not true. The other party was just pretending to agree to my mother’s request.

In fact, they set up an ambush on the road and prepared to kill?

This is not impossible, because once it succeeds, all you have to do is claim that it was done by bandits, and then symbolically punish some people, and the other party will be completely free from worries.

Wei Yuanchuan felt that if it were him, he would definitely choose to do so.

For an emperor, a vassal king with a fiefdom is very dangerous.

And after taking into account these changes and dangers.

He sent people to patrol an area of ​​fifty miles to look for possible ambushes.

"Reporting to the prince, there is no one chasing us from behind."

"And there's no hidden ambush ahead!"

The personal guard spoke up and reported the information he had gathered truthfully.

No?

Wei Yuanchuan was a little confused and felt it was impossible.

"Your Majesty, in my humble opinion, you are overthinking it." The guard hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Perhaps the Emperor truly wishes to release you and return to his fiefdom, without any ulterior motive."

"I have received news that the Emperor was in the Imperial Study two days ago, cursing the Imperial Censor and even the Grand Tutor."

"And during the morning court session a while ago, he also clashed with the opposing ministers until the emperor became furious."

"You know, because of you, Your Majesty, the Emperor almost had a falling out with all the civil and military officials in the court."

These words left Wei Yuanchuan completely silent.

Naturally, he had also heard Empress Dowager Sun mention these things.

If it was other ministers, it would be fine, but it was completely different when it came to Zhang Zhengming.

He was not only a minister relied upon by the late emperor and a veteran of two dynasties, but also the Grand Tutor, the emperor's teacher.

Wei Yuanchuan knew clearly that his royal brother had always been very respectful to Zhang Zhengming.

But now, for his own sake, he even scolded this person.

No matter how stupid he is, he should think it through.

"Could it be..."

"Brother, have you ever intended to imprison me?"

"Is it me, my mind is full of power struggles? Am I wrong about my royal brother?"

Wei Yuanchuan muttered to himself, beginning to feel that Queen Mother Sun was right, and began to feel uncomfortable. He felt even more guilty when he thought about the time when he secretly bought people's hearts.

My brother is so kind and magnanimous, yet I still harbored disloyal thoughts...

He felt a little miserable, thinking that he was too disappointing and that all he could think about were conspiracies and tricks.

However, even someone as arrogant as Wei Yuanchuan did not show it.

He simply raised his head, looked at his personal guards, and said, "It's just false pretenses. Who can't say something high-sounding? There's no ambush within a radius of fifty miles, so what about a hundred miles, or three hundred miles? Go, investigate further, and report back!"

After explaining all this, he simply pulled down the curtains and closed his eyes to rest in the carriage.

"Yes! Your Highness!" The guards had no choice but to do as they were told.

that's all.

Over time.

The carriage carrying Prince Yan to his fiefdom kept moving away from the capital.

Fifty miles, one hundred miles, two hundred miles, three hundred miles...

Almost every few miles, the personal guards would report the situation to Wei Yuanchuan, saying that several horses had died.

Fortunately, he has enough subordinates, and most of them have martial arts skills, so he can collect the most accurate information.

As for the conclusion each time, it is exactly the same as the first time.

Since leaving the capital.

There were no suspicious persons around the carriage that accompanied the feudal lord.

Upon receiving this news, Wei Yuanchuan finally left the carriage and stood on a hilltop, his gaze fixed on the direction of the capital. After a fierce ideological struggle, he bowed slightly and whispered, "Thank you... my royal brother!"
