As soon as these words came out, Xie Ruzhuo was immediately shocked. She had thought about what Concubine Jing was going to do, but she didn't expect that she would be so bold as to steal Emperor Jing's token!
Xie Ruzhuo, an outsider, is like this, let alone Emperor Jing who is the party involved
This matter was placed on Emperor Jing's head like a dyed hat. How could he not be angry
When Concubine Jing and Xiao Junyan were both brought, Emperor Jing was so angry that he smashed an inkstone on the table onto Concubine Jing, pointed at her and cursed, "What a vicious woman, she dared to steal the token and give it away privately" If you are a repeat offender, do you know your guilt?"
Concubine Jing was in pain, but she bit her lip and said nothing. Instead, she looked at Xiao Junyan beside her with some guilt.
Emperor Jing walked down from behind the desk, walked to Concubine Jing, stretched out his hand and pinched her chin hard, forcing her to look up at him, and then asked word for word, "Have I ever treated you badly? "
Forced to look at Emperor Jing, Concubine Jing raised her eyes, stared at his face and said, "No."
"Then have I ever felt sorry for you?"
"No."
Emperor Jing smiled coldly, squeezed her hand a little harder, and asked, "Then why did you do this?"
Concubine Jing was in pain from being caught by her, and she said vaguely, "Why is your Majesty so troublesome for me?"
"Embarrassed?!"
Emperor Jing suddenly let go of her, kicked her to the ground, and said in a cold voice, "You actually said that I am making things difficult for you? Bitch! In the name of serving as a medical officer, you secretly stole my personal token and went to release it." A traitor who collaborates with the enemy and treason, but now he says that I have made things difficult for you! Tell me, who gave you the face and the courage!"
At the end of the sentence, Emperor Jing became even more angry and his throat felt itchy, and he couldn't help but cough violently.
Seeing this, Eunuch Lin hurriedly stepped forward to help Emperor Jing, while Emperor Jing looked coldly at the two people kneeling on the ground.
A hint of unbearability flashed in Concubine Jing's eyes, but then she thought of Xiao Junyan beside her, and couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, I know I'm sorry for you, but Mr. Xiao has never done anything to disgrace the country, your Majesty. Mingjian!"
Emperor Jing laughed angrily, pushed Eunuch Lin away, glared condescendingly at Concubine Jing and said, "You are such a good person who has never failed Jiangshan Sheji. Do you still need me to throw the results of the three-division trial in your face before you are willing to do so?" give up?"
Concubine Jing knew it was hopeless to argue, but she still wanted to argue, "Your Majesty!"
"I just want to ask you one thing, what is your relationship with him?"
Emperor Jing did not want to listen to those words. He only looked at Concubine Jing and asked the question in his heart.
Concubine Jing glanced at Xiao Junyan, and saw that the other person was still expressionless. She gritted her teeth, forced herself to meet Emperor Jing's eyes, and said, "The grace of knowing someone, the companionship, the love between a man and a woman."
"Okay, okay, okay!"
Emperor Jing said "good" three times in a row, then walked up to Xiao Junyan and asked coldly, "What do you have to say?!"
Xiao Junyan still looked at the floor blankly and said word by word, "I have nothing to say."
"very good!"
Emperor Jing suddenly shouted outside, "Where are the Imperial Guards?"
More than a dozen armored soldiers filed in outside the door, shouting in unison, "My subordinates are here!"
Emperor Jing looked at the two people on the ground with cold eyes, and said bitterly, "Come here, drag these two people out and behead them immediately!"
The Royal Forest Army moved very quickly, dragging the two men out for just a moment before a soldier came in and reported, "Your Majesty, the criminal has been executed!"
Hearing this, Emperor Jing only waved his hand and asked people to retreat.
It was not until the imperial guards left that Emperor Jing slowly sat down on the dragon chair with a look of sadness on his face.
Xiao Junxi stepped forward and whispered comfort, "Father—"
But before he could finish his sentence, he saw Emperor Jing suddenly spurting out a mouthful of blood, and he collapsed on the dragon chair in a state of dejection!
This time, Emperor Jing was unconscious for longer than last time. It wasn't until the third day that he woke up.
Before Emperor Jing woke up, Wen Ruyu privately informed Concubine Ye Guifei and Xiao Junxi about Emperor Jing's physical condition, saying, "He is now exhausted. If he takes care of his health, he may still be able to survive." It’s been raised for three to two years, but if we continue to work so hard, I’m afraid it won’t last three months.”
Therefore, when Emperor Jing woke up, Concubine Ye couldn't help but feel sour when she looked at Emperor Jing whose eyes were cloudy.
She married into this palace when she was young. Although it was for her sister's only son, the friendship between husband and wife over the years was not fake. Plus, with the addition of Xiao Xinning, she treated the man in front of her more and more like a husband. .
I remember that back then he was so high-spirited that he dominated the battlefield, but now, lying in bed, he looked like an old man in his twilight years.
How to make Concubine Ye not feel sad
But Concubine Ye couldn't say this, or even show it on her face.
When Emperor Jing raised his hand and held Concubine Ye, he asked softly, "What did the imperial physician say?" Concubine Ye could only force a smile and said, "The imperial physician said that the emperor has been worrying too much recently and that he will be fine after resting for a while. .”
Hearing this, Emperor Jing just smiled vainly and said with a long look, "I'm afraid it's more than that. I know my own body well, so you don't have to hide it from me."
His words made Concubine Ye feel more and more sad, but she still had a smile on her face and said, "What are you saying, Your Majesty? Just rest and relax. After a while, you will still be the high-spirited Emperor." .”
Emperor Jing smiled slightly and said, "When did you learn these coaxing words? But I feel comfortable listening to them. Okay, please ask Jun Xi to come in."
Concubine Ye knew that he might have something to ask, so she only responded, carefully tucked Emperor Jing into bed, and walked out.
But no one thought that the will would come so quickly.
"In accordance with the fate of heaven, the emperor issued an edict: to establish an heir, to respect the foundation of the country, so to inherit the utensils and guard the utensils, so to inherit the inheritance of culture... The third son of the emperor, Xiao Junxi, is gentle and gentle from heaven, and filial to friends is due to nature. Fu Caizhaorong, who has a distinguished career in utensils, is appointed as the crown prince. He supervises the country on behalf of the emperor. I admire this."
The canonization decree had been thought of long ago, and the most important thing was the last sentence: to supervise the country on behalf of the emperor.
This means that Emperor Jing has completely let go of the political power in his hands. From now on, this nominal prince is the real master of our dynasty.
Xiao Junxi received the imperial edict, kowtowed and thanked him, saying, "My dearest Lord, I thank you for your kindness."
Eunuch Lin smiled so hard that his teeth could not see his eyes, and flattered him, "In the past, I thought the prince was blessed, but now it is indeed true."
Xiao Junxi smiled slightly and said, "Eunuch Lin is so polite."
Jiang Zhu on the side had already presented the red envelope with eyes. Eunuch Lin declined it slightly and accepted it with a smile. After a few polite words, he said, "The Za family will not disturb the Crown Prince anymore. I will resign."
Xiao Junxi nodded, ordered Zixiao to send Eunuch Lin out, and then helped Xie Ruzhuo back to the room.
An imperial edict was like thunder, waking up all those hibernating people in the entire capital.
In Prince Qi's palace, there was a turmoil at the moment.
In Xiao Junhan's study, almost a room full of people were sitting, almost all discussing the same question, "Master, now that the crown prince has been established, what should we do?"
These individuals are Xiao Junhan's loyal subordinates, and they have not changed their minds until now.
Xiao Junhan pinched the ring on his thumb with a gloomy look, and said coldly, "It is not terrible to establish a prince, but my father handed over all the affairs to Xiao Junxi so hastily, but this king could not tolerate it! Last time When I entered the palace for an audience, I saw that my father was not in very good condition, and Concubine Ye was assisting him when he came in and out. So I am a little worried."
As soon as he said these words, Hu Yue, the temperance patrol commander, immediately stood up and said in a rough voice, "Your Majesty, what about Concubine Ye Guifei and her charming son? Don't tell me that mother and son took the opportunity to control the emperor, right?"
This Hu Yue is a martial artist who has always had no brains, but the words that a brainless person says make people stop thinking about other places.
Therefore, the civil servants around him became concerned and broke out in a cold sweat and said, "Your Majesty, judging from the humble ministers, this is indeed possible. If this is the case, my emperor is in danger!"
Xiao Junhan wanted this effect, so he just thought about it, wondering, "Can't it? If that's really the case -"
"Then the only one left is Qingjun!"
The speaker was not from the room. As the words fell, I saw a woman walking in from the door. She was wearing a pink floral blouse, lightly powdered, with watery eyes. She was naturally a delicate beauty.
But what she said made everyone present feel timid.
They remember what happened during the Autumn Hunt last year. Wasn't King Duan at that time just in the name of Qingjun? But later on, it ended up like that!
And the ministers who surrendered to King Duan did not end well!
Seeing the shrinkage in these people's eyes, Shen Jingci's eyes flashed with coldness, and then she said generously, "I am a female, but I also know the truth about lips and teeth. Don't talk about those big principles, just say that if the prince has three advantages and two disadvantages, , is it possible that you will have a good outcome? There are no intact eggs when the nest is overturned. Only by keeping the nest can we protect the glory and wealth of everyone here. I think you all understand this better than I do, right?"
After she said this, she walked to Xiao Junhan and sat down. She changed her appearance and said softly, "Your Majesty, my men and horses have been reunited. I'm just waiting for Your Majesty's instructions."
As soon as these words came out, how could anyone present not understand? The co-author, King Qi, has long been prepared, and these people will either be frontline officials who support the new master, or they will be rejected by the new master but cannot be appreciated by the old master. That will be the real end at that time.
These people are all human beings, and no one is confused. So as soon as Shen Jingci finished speaking, Hu Yue immediately stood up and said loudly, "Your Majesty, the last general only knows that you gave me this life, so I, Hu Yue, will go up to the mountain of swords and the sea of fire without hesitation. !”
With his statement, other people's statements became logical.
Shen Jingci had already prepared a sketch. After everyone expressed their opinions, she spread it out on the table, and then sat aside, listening to Xiao Junhan and others' plans.
It wasn't until the last ray of the setting sun was swallowed up by the dark night that these people left Prince Qi's Mansion with great interest.
With today's paper rehearsal, they took a higher look at King Qi. Now I'm just waiting for that time to come, and then I can support the new king in one fell swoop!
The originally noisy study instantly returned to silence. Xiao Junhan was used to the noisy sounds before, but Xiao Junhan was still not used to it when it suddenly became quiet.
Shen Jingci walked up behind him, kneaded his eyebrows, and said softly, "Your Majesty, are you feeling better now?"
