The death of King Ying's son did not cause any turmoil, because no outsiders got the news except the border town. In the border town, after Chu Xiuyuan received the secret letter, he sent a letter to Xi Yunjing in central Fujian. Then he sent a letter to General Jin and the others. Chu Xiuyuan looked at the map hanging on the wall of the conference hall, and Zhao Duan even had an unreal feeling, "The son of King Ying..." is dead
Chu Xiuyuan nodded. He understood Zhao Duan's meaning. In fact, before Chu Xiuming left, he told Chu Xiuyuan that if possible, he would find a way to keep the son of King Ying, because he was only two or three points sure, so this They didn't tell too many people that the most important purpose of going this time was to save Chu Xiuyao.
Zhao Duan let out a breath slowly, thought for a long time and said, "Will it be too hasty? If there is no King Yingshizi, then in case Emperor Cheng..."
Chu Xiuyuan understood Zhao Duan's meaning, narrowed his eyes and said, "Don't worry, there is no peace in the capital."
Zhao Duan frowned, Chu Xiuyuan pointed to the location of the capital, and said, "Emperor Cheng still hasn't understood what the Empress Dowager's departure from the capital means."
Chu Xiuyuan and the others didn't know about Shen Jin's pregnancy, so they guessed the reason why the queen mother left Beijing, but she gave up on Emperor Cheng. He stayed in the palace, because King Rui persuaded Chu Xiuming and the others to lead troops into the capital, and it must be the Queen Mother who Emperor Cheng used to vent his anger or threaten King Rui first.
Except for the queen mother, the queen is not a fuel-efficient lamp, because the queen's eyelids are shallow, so Emperor Cheng can rest assured, but sometimes such lack of foresight is precisely the most dangerous thing. The death of the queen's eldest son made the queen have already made peace with Emperor Cheng Distracted, Concubine Lan pushed Concubine Lu and the unborn child out in the first place, not only to let the queen and others assist the queen dowager out of the palace, but also to make the queen feel like a frightened bird, so what will the queen do? No one is sure.
Moreover, the queen did not disappoint everyone's wishes, plus the spies who had been lurking around the queen fanned the flames, it was self-evident what the queen would do, and the queen wanted her son to be enthroned, but did not consider the current situation , if Emperor Cheng dies and the young master ascends the throne, will he be able to secure the throne.
"Not only that, the queen has attacked Emperor Cheng." Chu Xiuyuan withdrew his hand, turned to look at Zhao Duan and said, "I'm afraid it will be around the Chinese New Year."
Zhao Duan's complexion changed. If so, then the death of Prince Ying's son is definitely a good thing, and the queen's youngest son has just turned ten years old, and there are many elder brothers on it. According to the queen's temperament, I am afraid that these princes will not stay. When Chu Xiuyuan announces his identity... Zhao Duan thought for a while and said, "When Emperor Cheng dies, let King Rui question the Queen and the Young Emperor in the name of the strange death of Emperor Cheng and the strange death of Emperor Cheng's heirs."
Chu Xiuyuan said, "Actually, it doesn't need to be like this." In this way, King Rui was pushed to the cusp of the storm, and Chu Xiuyuan was hidden. Guaranteed nothing goes wrong.
Zhao Duan smiled and said, "I'll discuss it with my sister."
Chu Xiuyuan shook his head and said, "Let's talk about it when my brother comes back."
Zhao Duan hesitated for a moment before saying, "Your Highness, have you ever thought about what to do after ascending the throne and proclaiming the emperor?"
Chu Xiuyuan didn't react for a while, and looked at Zhao Duan with some doubts. Zhao Duan said, "It's easy to start well, but it's hard to end well."
As soon as these words came out, Chu Xiuyuan's face changed drastically, and he looked at Zhao Duan with a little sharper eyes, and he didn't speak. Zhao Ru mentioned it, and Zhao Ru was also worried in his heart. Zhao Duan continued, "The Chu family is loyal. Your Highness has a deep relationship with the general. Naturally, there is no problem. But what about in the future? When the emperor and the ancestors, they also trusted the Chu family. There is a plus, but what about Emperor Cheng now? Although Emperor Cheng is suspicious, it is also because the Chu family has been in charge of the Tianqi army for too long."
Chu Xiuyuan clenched his fists tightly, but he knew in his heart that what Zhao Duan said was right, "If I ascend the throne, one day there will be apocalypse, and one day the Chu family will be powerful and rich."
Zhao Duan frowned and looked at Chu Xiuyuan, and said seriously, "Your Highness, have you ever thought about it, this is like putting the Chu family into a burning fire."
Chu Xiuyuan pursed his lips. In fact, Chu Xiuming had said to Chu Xiuyuan in the morning, "My brother... said that if one day I could ascend the throne, he wanted to retire."
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Duan admired Chu Xiuming even more in his heart, and said, "It's my villain's heart."
Chu Xiuyuan sat down a little dejectedly, and said, "It's not because of you, it's because my brother didn't let me talk about it, for fear that people's hearts would be unstable."
Zhao Duan understood Chu Xiuming's worries. After all, after Chu Xiuming stepped down, the military power must be taken over by someone else. Who can guarantee that the people under him will not be tempted? Everyone is convinced? For example, General Lin, General Jin, and General Wu have a good relationship. If the border city is handed over to General Lin, General Wu and General Jin will naturally have no objections, but the people under their command Woolen cloth? Wouldn't it be wrong for General Wu and General Jin
If people's hearts are floating, they will lose before they even start.
Zhao Duan also understood why Chu Xiuyuan said what he said just now, and it was a very smart choice for Chu Xiuming to greet Chu Xiuyuan so early, the relationship between the two of them is very good, the Chu family He paid a lot for Chu Xiuyuan, and Chu Xiuming chose to let go of the military power, which not only deepened Chu Xiuyuan's trust in the Chu family, but also showed the attitude of the Chu family. It is precisely because the Chu family has never participated in these power struggles, and is devoted to protecting Tianqi.
Tai and Zu once wanted his prince to marry a daughter of the Chu family, but they were all rejected by the head of the Chu family at that time, saying that the Chu family would never participate in royal affairs until the time of the late emperor. After the second secret letter with the Chu family, only one daughter of the Chu family married the crown prince's side concubine. That woman was also a collateral line, and even the men of that line died on the battlefield. In fact, at that time, the Chu family was ready to retire.
The Chu family guarded the frontier, and almost no one died at the end of life. They cared about the safety of the people, but seeing the talents of the Chu family withering, and even some sidelines had no successors, Chu Xiuming's grandfather didn't want to wait for decades. Chu family lineage.
No matter what the reason was, the Chu family had participated in the struggle for the throne this time, so Chu Xiuyuan was naturally at ease with the Chu family, but what about the future emperor? Do you think that if the Chu family is dissatisfied one day, they will come out with a prince again? And those ministers.
Chu Xiuming took the Chu family away this time, which was also a kind of preservation for the Chu family.
Zhao Duan didn't know if Chu Xiuyuan had thought of this, but he wasn't going to mention it, because no matter what, he admired him for being able to calmly put it down in the face of monstrous power, and it's no wonder that his father was so sympathetic to Chu Xiuyuan. Xiu Ming rated it so highly.
Chu Xiuyuan looked at Zhao Duan and said, "It's good that you know this in your heart."
Zhao Duan nodded, and suddenly said, "Your Highness, do you feel sorry for the Chu family?"
Chu Xiuyuan didn't speak, but the look on his face said everything. Zhao Duan said, "It's better to give the title, and the future of Chu Chenbo and Chu Chenhui in the future. The border town...is too dangerous."
"En." Chu Xiuyuan didn't understand this, but he still felt a little lost in his heart. He felt that when he sat in that position, he might lose a lot of things.
Zhao Duan didn't know how to comfort him, but Chu Xiuyuan took a deep breath and let it out slowly, and said, "I see, you should call me Major General." Chu Xiuyuan didn't like the title of Your Highness .
"Yes, Major General." Zhao Duan said respectfully.
Chu Xiuyuan didn't mention this matter any more. If Zhao Duan hadn't spoken first, Chu Xiuyuan might never have said something, "When there is apocalypse, there will be power and wealth of the Chu family." This sentence is not true. Chu Xiuyuan's impulsiveness, he had such a wish when he was very young, he even told Chu Xiuming, Chu Xiuyuan still remembers what Chu Xiuming said, that is your wish, but I also have mine Wish, what I want to do is to travel all over the country and see with my own eyes the great mountains and rivers guarded by the Chu family for generations.
From that day on, Chu Xiuyuan understood in his heart that Chu Xiuming was about to leave when he was firmly seated on the throne, so sometimes, Chu Xiuyuan didn't know that he was looking forward to revenge and enthronement, or just like this In the border town, he only served as a major general, Chu Xiuyuan.
In the carriage, Chu Xiuyao did not wake up. When he reached a safe town, he specially invited a doctor to find out that he had been given medicine. The dose was too large. The doctor prescribed some other medicine, saying that Once the antidote is cured, rest for another day. There is nothing else to do if the body is a little weak, but we have to wait for Chu Xiuyao to wake up before checking.
Chu Xiuming sent the doctor away. After the guards boiled the medicine, they fed Chu Xiuyao with their own hands. They simply slept in the same room with Chu Xiuyao. Who knew that Chu Xiuyao woke up before the time the doctor said. As soon as Chu Xiuyao moved, Chu Xiuming went to light the lamp and looked at Chu Xiuyao...
Before dawn, Chu Xiuming had already sent someone to invite the doctor again. Although Chu Xiuming thought that Chu Xiuyao would survive, there might be some problems, but looking at this stupid brother, Chu Xiuming only felt My heart hurts.
Because the consultation fee was sufficient, the doctor had no complaints. After carefully examining Chu Xiuyao, he took the pulse and said, "I'm afraid it hurt the head, and it's an old injury. If it starts, there are still some ways. At this time I am really powerless."
Manager Zhao's face changed, he looked at Chu Xiuyao and then at Chu Xiuming, but Chu Xiuming looked calm and said, "Thank you doctor, let the doctor go out."
"Yes." Manager Zhao didn't say anything, and sent the doctor away in person.
At the door, the doctor hesitated and said, "It's because the medical skills are not enough. If we can find someone with excellent medical skills and use acupuncture, there is a glimmer of hope."
"Thank you doctor." Manager Zhao said.
The doctor shook his head, turned around and left. If it had been earlier, it might have been effective to prescribe some drugs for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, but now it is checked that it is obviously an old injury, and this person is not in good health, so he dare not take medicine. under weight...
In the room, Chu Xiuyao was sitting on the bed, not fussing. Chu Xiuming poured him a glass of warm water and put it in his hand, and he drank it...
