Chapter 233 I can help him

Emperor Jing closed his eyes and did his exercises and adjusted his breath.

Only then did he slowly calm down.

Opening his eyes, he took out his handkerchief and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and asked Ning Shuyan: "What do you want?"

"It's very simple. My father decreed that the emperor should be deposed and his son should be appointed as the emperor." Ning Shuyan did not follow him in circles and went straight to the point.

Emperor Jing was not surprised.

Besides the throne, what else could it be for?

"What if I don't agree?"

Ning Shuyan shook the small porcelain bottle in his hand again, and the pills inside hit the porcelain bottle, making a pleasant sound.

"I'm sure my father won't have trouble with this, right? I've taken it this month, but will my father not want it next month?"

"Are you threatening me?" Emperor Jing was so angry that the veins on his forehead popped out, and the veins on his neck were also obvious.

Ning Shuyan nodded with a smile.

Yes, he is threatening him.

"I am your father! This is parricide!" Emperor Jing said angrily.

If Concubine De treated him like that, Concubine De was at least an outsider.

But he is his son, his biological son!

"It's not like I don't give my father the antidote, so how can I call it patricide? I just want my father to help me with something. My father has always taught us that in the royal family, we can't be kind and we can't have women.

Is it benevolent?"

Emperor Jing was so angry that he could not utter a single word, and his lips were trembling violently.

"Father, you have to think about it this way. When your fourth brother is the emperor, you have to rely on your concubine to give you the antidote. When your son is the emperor, you rely on his son to give you the antidote. To the father, it is no different, right?

?Furthermore, the son-in-law is definitely more reliable than the concubine."

Emperor Jing was so angry that he couldn't speak, and he clenched the handkerchief tightly.

"Father, please prepare an edict. After drafting the edict, hello, me, everyone. Hello, I will ask someone to dispose of Concubine De's body and make her disappear. Otherwise, I will tell my fourth brother that it was my father who killed her.

She wanted to see if the fourth brother would give his father the antidote. By then, his father would not have the antidote, and he would be hated by the fourth brother. He might even want to avenge his mother and concubine. What would happen to his father?

I guess you don’t need to tell me, right?"

Ning Shuyan gestured to show his ink.

Zhan Mo stepped forward, took away the blood-stained rice paper in front of Emperor Jing, spread it over with a piece of yellow silk specially designed for imperial edicts, then took the pen that Emperor Jing had placed on the inkstone, dipped it in ink, and handed it to him with both hands.

Emperor Jing stared at Zhan Mo with red eyes, his eyes were about to burst, as if he wanted to eat him alive.

One holds a pen in both hands, and the other does not pick it up.

When Ning Shuyan saw this, a hint of impatience flashed across his eyebrows.

"Father, for you, actually deposing the emperor and establishing a new king is just the right thing to do. If you continue to protect your fourth brother, what benefits will it bring to you? You can't explain it to the officials."

Zhan Mo kept holding the pen, and the ink dripped from the tip of the pen and fell on the yellow silk. It was stained a lot, so he had to change it again.

He dipped the inkstone in the inkstone again and presented it to Emperor Jing with both hands.

Emperor Jing knew that he had to write whether he wanted to write today or not. Apparently everyone in Shangfan Palace had been purged by his rebellious son.

I had no choice but to reach out and take the pen, put it on the yellow silk, and start writing.

Ning Shuyan was very satisfied with his performance. He curled his lips and waited there.

After Emperor Jing finished writing, he picked it up and looked at it. He felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he put it away and put it into the sleeves of his robe.

"On which eclipse did my father deliver the antidote last time? On that day next month, I will deliver the antidote on time!"

After saying that, he ordered Zhan Mo: "Guard Zhan, keep an eye on your father."

Then he walked out and told the people at the door: "Dispose of Concubine De's body secretly."

Two palace servants came in as ordered.

Emperor Jing looked at them and saw that they had unfamiliar faces.

As expected, this treacherous son cleared out all his people in Shang Fan Palace and replaced them with his own people.

*

When Ning Shiqian, Bai Jiuxiao and his party returned to Sanglin Capital City, they heard from their own people that Gu Yin had been caught pretending to be him and was trapped in Longxiang Palace by hundreds of officials, and that the officials went to Shangfan Palace to find his father.

The matter of petition.

"You and the tenth princess will either stay at Pingshui Inn, the same inn where you first came to Sang with me, or you can stay at Baiyundu Manor." Ning Shiqian said to Bai Jiuxiao.

Bai Jiuxiao was confused: "Why?"

"I told you, the manager of Pingshui Inn is mine, and Baiyundu Manor, as you know, is mine. At this time, you cannot stay in the Fourth Prince's Mansion, because it is not safe."

Bai Jiuxiao nodded: "I know this. That's not what I'm asking about. I'm asking why you don't let me follow you into the palace?"

"Of course not! Entering the palace now is extremely dangerous. I have no choice but to face it. Gu Yin was trapped because of me. Moreover, he could have escaped through the secret passage, but he didn't. He was just waiting for me.

"Hui, I can't ignore my mother and concubine, so I'm going back to the palace to see what's going on and act according to the situation. Just wait outside for my news," Ning Shiqian said.

Bai Jiuxiao frowned: "It's not like we agreed that we will face everything together in the future. I'm also wearing a mask, and no one knows it's me. No, I have to be with you."

"I want to come too!" Bai Shixiang said.

She was also anxious to death when she heard that Gu Yin was trapped.

At the same time, he became more certain that Gu Yin was someone worthy of pursuing him all the way.

Ning Shiqian just said that he could escape, but he didn't escape and still stayed behind. Such a man is really kind and righteous!

"What are you causing trouble?" Bai Jiuxiao scolded Bai Shixiang.

Bai Shixiang was unconvinced: "Then Sister Ninth also has to be with Ning Si?"

"I can help him, can you help Gu Yin? I know martial arts, can you know martial arts? I know how to play in court, can you play in court? I know how to heal and poison, can you heal and know how to poison? What are you doing?

No, following you will only become a trouble and distract everyone from taking care of you! If you want Gu Yin to be well, just go to Pingshui Inn and wait." Bai Jiuxiao said without mercy at all.

.

Bai Shixiang was left speechless.

Guguzui: "Okay."

Ning Shiqian actually did not want Bai Jiuxiao to follow him into the palace and risk his life, but Bai Jiuxiao insisted and was very stubborn. There was no room for negotiation, so he had to agree.

In order to ensure Bai Shixiang's safety, Ning Shiqian sent his own people to take her and the coachman to Pingshui Inn, and taught her clearly who to contact and how to contact her in case of emergency or danger.

.

The two of them entered the palace.

After entering the palace, Ning Shiqian took Bai Jiuxiao to the Xiangrui Palace where his mother-in-law lived. He wanted to know the specific situation in the palace first and could not blindly return to Longxiang Palace.

His mother and concubine were not here, but Grandma Chang said that she had been invited to Shangfan Palace by his father and had not returned yet.

The two of them could only get a general understanding of the situation from Grandma Chang, but Grandma Chang didn't know the specific situation in Longxiang Palace.

The two of them decided to go to the inner hall of Longxiang Palace from the secret passage and meet with Gu Yin first to understand the situation and then discuss a response plan.

See you tomorrow~~
