The court meeting ended, and the system 999 was a little disappointed.
In such a situation this morning, the host actually endured it calmly, without any sign of anger, which was beyond its expectation.
Although this is the ideal host for salted fish at the beginning, why does it feel that something is wrong now
[Host, do you want to do something big again?]
At this time, it is like a wife with a keen sense of smell who turns into a detective when she smells a little perfume on her husband's body, and she can't help showing suspicious little eyes.
"Well… "
Yuan Buwei was sitting in the study at this time, flipping through a stack of silk books in his hands, and by the way, tilted his head and took a bite of the special ten-fold sweet candied haws, as if he was thinking about how to answer.
System 999 is nervous and looking forward to it. I really don't know whether to hope the answer is yes or no.
It was not: "... hiccup~"
There was a moment of silence in the study.
He turned his head and glanced at the clean and neat seven sticks of candied haws on the desk next to him. He swept them together as if nothing had happened, covered them with a handkerchief, and took a sip from a teacup filled with clear water. .
After doing all this, he said slowly again: "... Well. Guess?"
System 999: [? ? ?]
This host is getting skinnier.
Because the host is always inappropriate, it is bullied online all day long, or it is used repeatedly as a tool system, and the system 999 will shut itself down for a period of time from time to time.
This time, it also went offline and shut itself off for several days. It didn't expect to go online again, and learned the amazing fact that the emperor's coma was actually caused by the host's poisoning.
At that time, the whole system of 999 was not good.
What kind of strange skill trees are lit up on this host
Even System 999, who had been by his side all the time, didn't discover how the emperor was tricked by the unnoticed poisoning technique.
If it weren't for what he told Qi Yu himself, it seems that he didn't intend to really do anything to the emperor... It seems that the host still has a slight chance of being rescued, and the system 999 almost wanted to die on the spot.
[Host, do you remember the mission?]
System 999 becomes customer service, warm reminder.
[Washing the identity of the villain, no longer competing with the protagonist. Stay safe and be a good person.]
At the same time, it also thoughtfully presented the subtitles in front of Yuan Buwei, bolding and marking the eight words "be safe and be a good person" in red, almost with flashing special effects.
"remember."
Yuan didn't know where he took out another candied haws, biting on it, his eyes curved slightly.
"Don't worry, I've always been a good person. This is recognized by all beings in the human world from the bottom of their hearts."
[Yeah? ] System 999 is dubious.
At the beginning, it hurriedly passed by the world it was not in, and didn't read the plot of fate, but it also learned about the deeds of the host's salvation from the mouths of countless mortals in the human world.
Logically speaking, there is nothing wrong with what Yuan Buwei said.
…but why does it always feel so wrong
However, in the next few days, Yuan Buwei's performance was indeed "safe".
Going to court as always, handling government affairs as always, guiding the imperial dining room to develop new desserts (?) as always... This routine is so ordinary that the system 999 has an illusion of unreality.
This day is morning again.
In the resplendent and resplendent Tai Chi Hall, he was not originally on the throne, but in a few words, he dispatched the government affairs presented by the courtiers one by one with astonishing speed, and handed them over to the most suitable people.
Although he didn't talk much, he pointed to the core, and he was well-organized and thoughtful. As long as everyone does what he says, there is absolutely no problem.
Witnessed with his own eyes the rapid improvement of His Royal Highness's level of governance in a short period of time, His Highness and his ministers reacted differently. Some people are relieved, while others frown.
But at this moment, the sharp voice of the little eunuch outside the hall suddenly sounded, trembling with a bit of shock:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty?... Your Majesty is here!"
At the same time, a figure rushed in quickly.
·
When the emperor woke up, it was dawn.
The light in the dormitory was very dim. He squinted his eyes for a while to adjust, only to realize that it was not an illusion.
A great surprise enveloped him in an instant.
... Finally, finally, he finally "sees the light of day" again!
At this time, soft footsteps suddenly sounded in the hall.
The emperor looked sideways vigilantly and found that it was Empress Zhou.
Empress Zhou also noticed his waking up, and ran to the bed in surprise: "Your Majesty, you finally..."
Before she could finish her sentence, the emperor who suddenly sat up covered her mouth and said in a low voice, "Don't disturb anyone!"
Empress Zhou's voice made the emperor quickly react from the confusion he had just woken up.
Originally, he thought that once he woke up, he would be under house arrest by the prince, but now it seems that the prince is probably in court at this time!
Maybe the other party didn't expect that he would wake up so soon, and no one in the bedroom deliberately guarded him.
- Isn't this a godsend opportunity!
He holds a righteous name in his hand, if the prince puts him under house arrest and isolates him from inside and outside, that's all. otherwise…
The emperor, who was planning to give up resistance, decided to struggle again.
The overlapping curtains concealed the figures of the two people. From the perspective of other people, they did not see the emperor's movements, nor did they notice his waking up.
Several young maids seemed to have sensed the movements on the Queen's side and were about to come over.
The emperor quickly let go of his hand, and Empress Zhou nodded slightly in cooperation, then turned her head and ordered:
"Wait, don't come here, all of you go out, I want to talk to His Majesty alone for a while."
The emperor did not relax until everyone in the palace was expelled. He raised his head, stared at Queen Zhou's eyes mixed with surprise and worry, and smiled wryly.
After these days of empress Zhou's nagging, he thought he already understood what this woman was thinking.
"Zitong, I need your help now..."
…
A quarter of an hour later, Empress Zhou's phoenix chariot left the emperor's bedroom and headed outwards towards the Tai Chi Hall.
So, before the court meeting was over, a figure that was beyond everyone's expectations broke into the Tai Chi Hall.
The emperor had been lying on the bed for nearly a month, and his limbs were still a little stiff. He walked into the Tai Chi Hall with strength, and when he looked up, he saw the prince sitting on the throne. He never expected that he had become so arrogant!
The emperor's arrival was too sudden, and before the officials could react, they saw that the emperor had raised his hand tremblingly and pointed at the crown prince: "Nizi! You naughty son, have you not concealed your wolfish ambition?"
Yuan did not look at him in astonishment.
The emperor's face was flushed with anger, which was half real and half fake.
His arms trembled violently, and he accused loudly in front of the officials: "You poisoned and murdered your father, and even tried to put me under house arrest in the palace. Do you think you have done it perfectly? I came here today to expose Your outrageous act... huh?!"
Speaking of this, his body suddenly froze, and the numbness spread throughout his body in an instant. The emperor only felt that he suddenly lost control of his limbs, and then the whole person fell straight on his back to the ground.
"Boom!"
Yuan Buwei gave a secret "tsk" in his heart.
… just hearing the sound hurts.
The emperor groaned in pain.
The ministers exclaimed: "Your Majesty!"
From the time the emperor stepped into the palace and began to criticize him, to when he fell to the ground without warning and suspected of having a stroke, the whole process was only a dozen or so breaths away.
So much so that the officials could barely react.
Seeing the emperor in such a state of embarrassment and the prince who was so busy on the throne, even Prime Minister Su, who prided himself on his smooth wrists, was at a loss for a while.
Yuan Buwei sat on the throne carelessly all the time, with one hand slightly supporting his chin, his posture was calm.
He also seemed to be shocked by this scene, and he was stunned for a few breaths, before he let out a surprised syllable: "Hmm."
"Even though father misunderstood me, there is no need to make such a big apology." He shook his head, "I can understand..."
"Fart! What's wrong... No, what did you do to me?!" The emperor was so angry that he forgot his identity, the sharp pain from his nose stimulated his nerves, and he swears directly.
When he was speaking, his whole face was rubbed against the ground, but his body was like a motionless puppet, stiff and unable to move.
There was a fear in his voice that he didn't realize.
Yuan didn't want to glance at him, as if he just realized that something was wrong with him, he couldn't help lowering his eyes and said in disappointment:
"It turns out that the father didn't want to make amends."
"... Father has slept for a long time, and he is also confused. If I really want to harm you, how can you have a chance to pass through the guards and come to this Taiji Hall?"
After explaining a sentence, he pondered: "As for the reaction of the father, it should be poisoned."
As he said that, he seemed to realize that the emperor was still lying on the ground, and quickly pointed to a little eunuch to help him up.
"Poison hair? Hasn't the poison on my body been cured?!"
Finally bid farewell to the intimate contact with the floor, the emperor looked eagerly at Yuan Buwei, for a moment he couldn't care less about the implying that there was something wrong with his head in the other party's words.
It is clear that Queen Zhou said that the prince promised...
Thinking of this, the emperor suddenly reacted.
The crown prince just said that he would wake up in half a month at most, and never guaranteed that he would be detoxified!
"Prince, you!"
Anger surged up again, he couldn't move his body, he just stared at Yuan Buwei with a pair of eyes, but felt that his limbs became more and more numb.
Seeing this, Yuan Yuan explained: "This poison is very difficult to deal with. Father must remember to control his emotions and not get angry. Well, you might as well learn from your son and maintain a normal heart."
If you learn from him, even if you are sitting on the emperor's throne, holding the pinnacle of power, you can look down on the emperor and watch the emperor pounce on the ground... Isn't it still boring, without a little bit of joy and excitement
... The emperor's temperament is really bad.
The emperor was too angry to speak.
As the saying goes, profit makes wisdom faint. Before, the emperor was dazzled by the hope of regaining his freedom and power, but now under the fear of death, he regained his reason.
"You, this is all arranged by you..."
His voice trembled unknowingly.
He figured it out, since the crown prince was able to deceive him for so long with his acting skills, and poisoned him without anyone noticing, there was no reason for him to be so negligent and let him break into the Tai Chi Hall! This can only be done on purpose by the other party!
At this point, think back to the past.
First, he poisoned him by surprise, so that his consciousness could only sink in the darkness. Every day he heard the forces under his command being chopped off bit by bit, and when he was about to be completely desperate, this man used the mouth of the queen to make him hope.
He finally struggled for another half a month, thinking that today was the chance to escape from the sky and regain everything, but this life shattered his hopes...
The most painful thing in this world is not not getting what you want, let alone failing again and again, but losing it after you get it, and falling short at the moment of success.
It was as if after falling off a cliff, he worked hard to climb up, only to be pushed down with a light palm... For a moment, the emperor's mind collapsed a bit!
He suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood, and fell straight backwards.
