These five words were lingering in the emperor's mind.
At this moment, he even felt secretly and unexplainably happy. If Xiao Yu just wanted to form a small court and become king in Jieshi County without interfering with Kyoto, he would even hope so.
But will Xiao Yu only stay in Jieshi County?
He always felt that Xiao Yu and the eldest princess knew something about Xiao Jiyuan's death. Will they take revenge?
Xiao Jiyuan has been dead for five years. He and the eldest princess are the same mother. For a man who has been dead for five years, the eldest princess will... The emperor clenched his fist angrily.
The Minister of Punishment looked at the emperor's expression. He didn't understand why the emperor was angry. Suddenly he stopped dead. What was he thinking?
Should I continue to stimulate or should I take it slow?
After a moment of melancholy hesitation, the Minister of Punishment decided to go all out. Zhuge Liang still had three Qi and Zhou Yu. He was not as good as Zhuge Liang, so he had to have thirty Qi!
come on!
You are the best!
Silently cheering himself up in his heart, the Minister of Punishment took a deep breath and cried energetically: "Your Majesty, what can we do! The King of Nanhuai controls the water transportation!"
If he really sets up a small court in the north, then he will also control the water transportation in the south. In the future, when we are in Kyoto, won't everything we eat, drink and have sex depend on his face?
At that time, Your Majesty will become a subordinate of King Nanhuai!"
The sentence "subordinate" stimulated the emperor's boastful face and the flesh trembled violently.
The head chamberlain glanced at the Minister of Punishment, lowered his eyes, and suddenly burst into tears.
The emperor was startled when he cried so loudly that he turned to look at him in astonishment, "What's wrong with you?"
The Minister of Punishment was also shocked, "Yes, what's wrong with you?"
The head chamberlain quickly knelt down.
"The slave charged Your Majesty. The slave deserves to die. But the slave immediately thought of the master. The master once said before his death that the King of Nanhuai will be punished. Anyone who has a grudge against him, even if ten years have passed, as long as he is given a chance.
, will also cut off the enemy's head and hang it on the city gate.
The servant once offended the prince. The servant was afraid and could not hold back.
In the early years, when the prince-in-law was still alive, the slave, the slave, once attacked the prince-in-law, and the King of Nanhuai was present at that time.
Wuwuwuwu, this slave has attacked the prince-in-law, and the King of Nanhuai will definitely come back and cut off his head in revenge."
The emperor was frowning as he listened to his ramblings, but when he heard this, his heart suddenly tightened, and his throat felt like there was something blocked, and it hurt from holding back something.
Xiao Yu and Yaizhen will definitely take revenge? Will they definitely take revenge?
If he just bumped into Xiao Jiyuan and was worried that Xiao Yu would come back and cut his head off, then he... was plotting to kill Xiao Jiyuan.
The Minister of Punishment saw the newly appointed chamberlain crying with tears and runny nose. He couldn't help but wonder, brother, are you on the same team as me? You seem to be better than me at manipulating the emperor's heart and stimulating him.
You eunuchs are really perverted.
I am saying this to praise you.
Chamberlain:...Shut up!
Minister of the Ministry of Punishment: ...As expected, they are from the same trench. They didn’t even say a word. They just looked at each other and communicated!
The Minister of Punishment shivered and said in horror: "I have also offended the King of Nanhuai, Your Majesty... he will not return to Kyoto to take revenge! When the time comes, the bloodbath in Kyoto will be like the bloodbath in Songyue Ban!"
The three words "Song Yue Ban" once again stimulated the emperor's fragile and sensitive nerves.
The leader of the Songyue Squad was snatched from the Liaobei Army and hung whole on a city gate tower to be bled to death. It is said that the weather was so cold that when he died, the blood dripping from his body was frozen into icicles and hung at his feet.
, extremely miserable and terrible.
And Guo Zhanhe...
Ever since the leader of the Songyue Class was found out, Guo Zhanhe never wrote a single word of secret letter to him.
The emperor closed his eyes, and his ears were filled with the murmurs of the Minister of Punishment and the Chief Chamberlain. Every sound was like a curse, causing all the internal organs in his body to turn upside down.
Unable to hold it back, the emperor vomited out another mouthful of blood. This time he banged his head on the table and fainted.
The loud noise made the Chief Chamberlain and the Minister of Punishment stop crying, and both of them looked at the Emperor.
The emperor lay motionless with his head pressed against the table.
The two of them looked at each other in silence for long enough to have a cup of tea.
During this period, no one spoke, and there was no further eye contact.
After the emperor fainted over a cup of tea, the chamberlain suddenly shouted in panic and rushed out of the imperial study room, "Someone is coming, someone is coming, Your Majesty has fainted~ Someone is coming, someone is coming,
His Majesty fainted~"
Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment:......
The emperor suddenly fainted, and the Duke Ning's family moved away, which caused a strong sense of uneasiness in the remaining aristocratic families.
What should we do if the emperor suddenly dies of illness?
The King of Nanhuai has occupied the northern land.
If there is chaos in Kyoto, the King of Nanhuai will definitely come back.
You must quickly establish a heir apparent.
Just in case.
With this in mind, several princes from aristocratic families hurriedly entered the palace.
The emperor woke up slowly after being rescued by the imperial doctor. When he heard that several princes had arrived, with the purpose of persuading him to establish a heir apparent, he was so angry that he couldn't breathe anymore and fainted again.
Are you afraid that he will die too suddenly when you appoint a heir apparent at this time?
Damn it!
Outside the royal study, several princes from aristocratic families who were waiting were even more anxious when they heard that the emperor had fainted again just after he woke up.
OMG!
The emperor's body is already so weak?
No, no, they have to act quickly.
Establish a prince, establish a prince!
Who can be established?
Right now, the most suitable person is the fourth prince, because the emperor has issued an edict to confer the fourth prince's mother concubine, Concubine Zhen, as the queen.
The fourth prince is equivalent to the direct prince.
But behind the fourth prince is General Gu, who may not be easy to control in the future.
If you want to establish one, you have to establish one that is easy to decide, and several aristocratic families will be satisfied.
"Have you heard? The Fourth Prince has a problem."
Just when several princes from aristocratic families entered the palace but did not see the emperor, and were about to go back home to discuss it carefully, they suddenly heard a whisper in the corridor of the palace.
The voice sounded familiar.
It sounds like...
Minister of the Ministry of Justice?
What's wrong with the fourth prince?
Several aristocratic families were thinking about setting up a heir apparent. When they heard this, they looked at each other and quietly approached.
Behind a plum tree in the gap of the corridor, the Minister of Punishment lowered his voice and said to the third prince: "I have received reliable information that the fourth prince is not the emperor's biological son. The emperor will definitely not appoint him as the crown prince. Once he ascends the throne in the future, his secret
If someone finds out, that will be a way to manipulate him.
It's also a joke for the emperor's generosity, so His Highness's chances are great.
I will try my best to help His Highness deal with it, but we must not let those aristocratic families know the secret of His Highness the Fourth."
The third prince nodded solemnly, "Thank you for your advice, sir."
Several princes separated by a wall said:...Isn't this just a coincidence?
