Chapter 68: Mutiny

Yuan Chengcheng slept all night unsteadily. She couldn't tell what she dreamed of, it seemed that her father wanted to catch the emperor's cold night, and it seemed that the Huawang Palace had collapsed, and Shangguan Jingxuan, he said that Anguo was going to have a big flood......

Because I didn't sleep well, I woke up the next day with a groggy head. As soon as Yuan Chengcheng opened his eyes, he saw Hongchan standing on the edge of the couch with a heavy face, and was startled: "What's wrong?" ”

"Something happened to Anguo! Shangguan Jingwen suddenly launched a palace mutiny, killed four princes in one day, another ten were imprisoned and three were at large, and King An himself was also under house arrest, and the palace had just issued an abdication edict to establish Shangguan Jingwen as the new monarch. ”

"Really?" Shangguan Jingwen launched a palace rebellion that Yuan Chengcheng had expected, but he didn't expect him to kill his four brothers in one day so ruthlessly, "What about Shangguan Jingxuan?" I heard that King An intends to make him the prince, Shangguan Jingwen is Jing Xuan's eldest brother, he won't attack his own brother, right? ”

"It's hard to say, there are rumors that King An once wrote an edict, and the prince was the Sixth Highness. And that edict, some people suspect that it is in the hands of His Royal Highness Six. ”

"Nonsense!" Shangguan Jingxuan has no intention of political affairs at all, how can he hide the edict privately, if Shangguan Jingwen believes it, why not chase and kill Jingxuan for thousands of miles?

"The slave maid also thinks that someone may want to frame the Sixth Highness, but since there are such rumors, we have to guard against Shangguan Jingwen to be unfavorable to the Sixth Highness."

"Hmmm! You go and tell His Royal Highness the Sixth, let him just live in peace in Huaguo, the Huawang Palace is impregnable, Shangguan Jingwen has no way to harm him even if he wants to! "Strange, why does she think Sister Hongchan is so concerned about Shangguan Jingxuan's affairs?

"This is the reason why the slave maid is in a hurry to find the princess, His Royal Highness is packing his luggage, and wants to go back to the palace immediately to persuade Shangguan Jingwen!" Once the rebellion is done, it is impossible to stop halfway, and he wants to turn the tide by himself, isn't it in vain to send him to death?

"What's he kidding? Bring me my clothes, and I'll go find him! "This nerd is stupid to read, does he think that if he says a few words of benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith to Shangguan Jingwen, Shangguan Jingwen will stop?

The reason why rumors are rumors is rumors, there is no groundless reason, those people guessed correctly, the edict is indeed in his hands. The above official Jingxuan's understanding of his father and brother Wang, it is impossible for the father to be threatened by his son to make any decisions, and if it is not justifiable and obedient, Brother Wang will never ascend to the throne, the only explanation is that the edict of Brother Wang's accession to the throne is fake.

When his father secretly handed him the edict before coming to Huaguo, he didn't want to accept it, but he knew that the struggle between his father and his brother was inevitable, and if he wanted to save the losing side in this struggle, he had to have some bargaining chips.

He had imagined that Yuan Chengcheng could choose him in this choice of son-in-law, once he inherited the Hua Kingdom, he and the Wang brother would have a place to live, even if his father would not pass the throne to the Wang brother, he also had the land of the Hua Kingdom to be handed over to the Wang brother to show his strengths. But it's too late, the struggle is over, and Brother Wang is like an arrow off the string, and he can't turn back.

"Jing Xuan!" Yuan Qingcheng ran over panting, but he didn't see Shangguan Jingxuan's anxious scene like an ant on a hot pot as he imagined. Sun Shuo was packing up his things without hurry, while Shangguan Jingxuan was sitting on the bed calmly, not at all like the burning eyebrows that Hongchan said!

"Princess, you're just in time, and I'm thinking I'll say goodbye to you later!" Shangguan Jingxuan got up slowly, still with his usual demeanor, he didn't know the anxious reaction after the fire at home, Yuan Chengcheng rushed over in a hurry, but he was like he had an accident at home.

"Sun Shuo, I'll clean up the things later, I'll talk to the princess first, you go down." Sun Shuo retreated, and Hongchan also gave a salute and retreated.

"The princess must be curious why such a big thing happened in my house, and I am so calm." Yuan Qingcheng nodded, but felt that it was inappropriate, and shook his head instead.

Shangguan Jingxuan smiled bitterly: "The princess should be curious, because even I wonder why I am so calm." He sighed, and continued, "Remember the witch I mentioned? In fact, I lied to you at that time, he ran away because he leaked a secret to my father, and he was afraid that my father would kill him for secrecy, so he ran away. ”

Yuan Chengcheng asked curiously, "What is the secret?" ”

"It's no secret anymore!" Shangguan Jingxuan said, "Wu Xian said that my brother Wang will have nothing to do with Sister Ling, and if you force it, you will bring humiliation on yourself, and even my father and king will be burdened by his son, and he will not die well." Ten years ago, the princess of the country was about to marry Yifu, and Brother Wang really became the laughing stock of the world, and my father saw that the first two sentences had come true, so he was afraid of my brother Wang, and no matter how hard my brother Wang tried over the years, he refused to give him a good face. Their contradictions grew deeper and deeper, and finally led to today's catastrophe. ”

Is this witch really so powerful? If he has such a divine ability, why did his father kill him?

"Now that you know that everything is predestined, what can you change when you go back?" In fact, what Yuan Chengcheng really wants to say is, why do you go back to die!

"My brothers fantasized about the crown prince all day long, intrigued with each other, and tried to kill us several times. I am not saddened that Brother Wang killed them, but my father is our father, and we have the grace of nurturing us, and if I do not stay with him anymore, will it not make him feel cold? ”

"But what if your brother wants to kill you?" He was in China, and she could let her father send troops to protect him, but she couldn't help him when he went to Anguo.

"We are born from the same mother and have depended on each other since childhood, he will not kill me, even if it is ......" Shangguan Jingxuan did not continue, "I have no regrets." ”

"Since you know that he has the possibility of killing you for the throne, why should you take any more risks, if I were your father, I would definitely not want you to go back." She usually looks at Shangguan Jingxuan Wenwen as weak, but she didn't expect him to have such a hard side, but hard is hard, and it is not wise to make senseless sacrifices.

"Things in this world are not without risks. As children of the royal family, although the surface is beautiful, we always feel like we are standing on the edge of a cliff, and if we are not careful, we will lose our lives. The heavy responsibility of the world is still on our shoulders, and we cannot afford to evade it at all. If I hide here and don't go back, it will be safe, but the whole of Anguo does not know how long the turmoil will be, although I am not the new king of Anguo, but I also have a responsibility to the people of Anguo, so even if my brother wants to kill me, I must go back. ”
