The Path Toward Heaven

Chapter 388

Zhengming gate is a side gate of the imperial palace. Different from its name, it is not very bright, dark and quiet. It looks terrible.

The little emperor looked at the long and secluded passage in front of him and thought of the previous message from the palace man. His face was a little pale.

According to his temperament, he wanted to turn around and go back to Hejian prefecture to be his son. However, five years ago, his mother told him that if he went to Kyoto, everything else didn't matter. Just remember two things: filial piety to the queen and don't offend father-in-law.

He didn't understand what was terrible about the eunuch, why the whole state of Zhao was silent in front of him, and why he had to be low in front of a eunuch if he became an emperor. It doesn't matter if he didn't understand. His mother used a very extreme way to let him remember this thing, which is hard to forget.

His mother died soon after saying this five years ago.

Everyone knows, that's because she has to die.

A country cannot have two masters, and an emperor cannot have two mothers.

Thinking of these things, the young man's face became paler, took a deep breath and walked into the Palace door.

Looking at this picture, the officials finally relaxed.

According to historical records, in the process of the new emperor's accession to the throne, father he Kai only said one sentence, which is certainly not true.

But no one could hear what he said except the little emperor.

The light in the side hall of Wenhua hall was a little dark. He Kan's face was hidden in the shadow. The little emperor was more nervous and subconsciously looked out of the hall.

The old people of Hejian mansion who followed him into the palace waited outside the temple, but they were not driven away or replaced.

This fact did not comfort him, but only showed that these people in the palace had absolute confidence in controlling themselves.

He Kan said, "Your Majesty should have studied government affairs in the palace as a prince. As a result, he was stopped. The rumor said it was me, but it wasn't."

Listening to this sentence, the little emperor had an illusion of why his father-in-law was afraid and wanted to express his loyalty. His face became a little strange.

Fortunately, his father-in-law's next sentence came quickly, avoiding the farce that Xinjun only took one day because of misunderstanding.

"I'm not afraid or explaining. I just want to tell your majesty that I know you didn't want to enter the palace five years ago."

He Kan said, "but today is the day after all. If you don't want to, you can't do it. Let's have a good life in the palace."

His tone was very calm and his tone was very calm, but the words and attitude in the sentence made the little emperor feel extremely angry, and then gave birth to extreme fear.

Anger came from powerlessness. Naturally, the little emperor was afraid. His lips trembled slightly. He wanted to say a few words, but he couldn't say anything after all.

"Those people secretly sent to Beijing by Hejian Prefecture in the past five years have been arrested early this morning. I believe they are all dead by this time."

He Kan's tone was still very calm and said, "your majesty will not be harassed by those evil anti thieves in the future."

The little emperor's face became very pale.

Hejian prefecture has made a lot of preparations. I don't know how much gold and silver, dead soldiers and counselors have been transported to Beijing in five years, just to ensure that he can sit on the throne.

Who would have thought that these things have always been under the control of the Jishi factory. It only takes one night to clean up.

"Will all the people I brought into the palace... Be killed?"

The little emperor could no longer control his emotions. He stared into he Kai's eyes and said angrily, "father-in-law, don't you want to leave a face for the royal family!"

He Kan said, "of course not. You know, from today on, you are the son of the former Emperor and the king of the state of Zhao. I will give you full respect."

The order of narration is very important.

——You should remember that you are the son of the former Emperor and have nothing to do with Hejian Prefecture.

If you can't remember this, many people will die. Even you can't be the new emperor of Zhao.

The little emperor was silent for a long time. With frustration and ridicule, he asked, "what should I call your father-in-law in the future?"

He Kan said, "in private, I allow you to call me uncle."

With these words, he walked outside the Wenhua hall.

Looking at the dark figure, the little emperor's face was full of shock and absurdity, and finally returned to fear again.

……

……

Yuan palace is the Queen's bedroom.

Today, the empress has become the empress dowager, but she still lives here.

The Empress Dowager has a good relationship with the former Emperor, and the latter party has been supported for five years, so her relationship with father-in-law he is naturally bad.

He Kan came into the hall with a tired look. Looking at him, the Empress Dowager felt less grief and sneered silently.

"I've finished talking with your majesty. It's OK."

He Kan said, "just as we agreed before, I won't show up after you hang the curtain, madam."
