Chapter 246: Killing Order
Thank you for the peace charm of the corn little fear of rewarding, Xie Lu Xie Qin for your support and encouragement! ——
Cui Guifei died, and Wei and Concubine were reduced to being constant.
In Baili Mansion, when the eldest lady and Cui Yingying learned the news, they were really wrong in their eyes and couldn't believe it. How so? They were shocked by the news.
After inquiring about it, I learned that Tang Guifei was the only one in the harem, and the eldest lady and Cui Yingying were gritting their teeth and resentful.
As soon as the ten princes die, it is not that only the four princes have the hope of ascending the throne, as long as the eldest lady and Cui Yingying think about it, they will have blood and blood flowing backwards. But soon they also calmed down, after all, there is still a Ruijun King, although they are in the back house and do not participate in outside affairs, but they all have their mother's family, so they all know something in their hearts.
In addition, King Ruijun also hopes to get the support of Baili Mansion, whether it is the Cui family or the Wei family, they are all co-opting Baili Mansion, and the eldest lady and Cui Yingying play a key role in this.
It's a pity that the eldest lady and Cui Yingying are not valued by Bailikong, and Baili Chenghui is now much lighter to Cui Yingying, plus Bailikong is a royalist, so naturally he is even more estranged from the eldest lady and Cui Yingying because of this matter.
Now that Baili Mansion has been divided, the eldest lady and Cui Yingying are very happy, but it means that Baili Kong is on the side of Emperor Xia Hui, and Baili Yun and Baili Feng are on the side of King Ruijun. In this regard, the eldest lady and Cui Yingying privately complained that they were not open to the door and brainless, and the reputation of the current King Ruijun in the court was not small, but it was Emperor Xia Hui, the older he was, the worse he was before.
At this time, the eldest lady and Cui Yingying had already gone to King Ruijun, and besides, Emperor Xia Hui's prince had no choice except for the four princes, so they naturally didn't want Tang Guifei and the four princes to take the throne.
Once Tang Guifei and the four princes ascended to the throne, the Cui family and the Wei family had no good fruits to eat.
The eldest lady's health is not good. After the old lady died, the whole person fell seriously ill again, and now he can't get up.
There were many people involved in the affairs of the Tang family's father and son back then, and naturally there were many people who didn't want Tang Guifei's mother and son to take the throne, otherwise once Tang Guifei's mother and son took the throne, and the death of the Tang family's father and son was investigated, then they would be in danger.
Therefore, the road of Mount Tai to worship the sky where the four princes went was full of dangers, and I don't know how many people were ambushed along the way. And Jingzhong is also calculating a lot for the four princes. Empress Shen had already sent someone back to her mother's house to deliver the news, asking the family to arrange a descendant woman to be used as a step-concubine for the fourth prince.
In the eyes of many people, Princess Ning Wei Qingfei is a princess who is dead, and in the eyes of Queen Shen, the four princes are on the throne, and Princess Ning will not be the queen, so as long as the four princes come back this time, the Shen family will prepare step-concubines for the four princes.
Empress Shen wanted to destroy Tang Guifei. But I also know how Tang Guifei is so easy to kill, and it's not good to let her brother know Lu Dao. For the sake of the family, Empress Shen decided to take a step back and let the fourth prince marry her maiden niece as a stepconcubine. Or be a queen.
If the four princes ascend the throne, the position of the queen can only be the Shen family.
Compared with the four princes on the throne, Empress Shen is even more reluctant to be proud of King Ruijun, Empress Dowager Cui and the Wei family. So now, she's taking a back seat. Although Empress Shen felt a little wronged, as long as her niece became the queen. gave birth to a prince, and everything was well arranged.
After some consideration, Empress Shen decided to support the side of the four princes, and only when the four princes ascended the throne could the Cui family and the Wei family be destroyed.
As for the incident that the Shen family participated in back then, Empress Shen was sure that Tang Guifei and the four princes did not know what to do, as long as the Cui family and the Wei family fell, just push the matter to the Cui family, the Wei family, or Emperor Xia Hui.
Of course, all this depends on the four princes being able to return to the capital safely, if they don't come back, everything is empty talk. In addition to the four princes, Empress Shen is also staring at the crown princess's belly, and she is about to give birth in a few months, if it is a royal grandson, then in addition to the four princes, this is also the second heir.
Even with Emperor Xia Hui's partiality, he was not prepared that Emperor Xia Hui would bypass the four princes and choose to let the imperial grandson succeed to the throne, although the imperial grandson is the grandson of Duan Guifei, but the young imperial grandson is easier to control, isn't it.
Empress Shen was already thinking about the crown princess's belly, and she hated her body now that it was useless, otherwise where would she be so passive.
In the East Palace, the crown princess has lost a lot of weight since the death of the third prince. Although she has a big belly, her emaciated mother looks a little amazing.
The women in the original East Palace did not leave, they were all in the East Palace, and without the prince, they didn't have to compete for favor. Even looking at the pregnant belly of the crown princess, the eyes of the women in the East Palace were very hot.
In their opinion, the crown princess is in the blessing and does not know the blessing, although the prince is gone, they are also sad, but the child is always the prince's child, but the princess has been hit a lot, has no soul, and the appearance of the walking corpse makes the concubine still dissatisfied, and she can't wait for the child in the princess's belly to be theirs.
It's just that because the crown princess is pregnant, all the other women in the East Palace are isolated, and Yu Chixue is protected by the people sent by Emperor Xia Hui, which shows how important Yu Chixue's belly is to Emperor Xia Hui.
Crown Princess Wei Chixue is indeed like a walking corpse, her eyes are very empty, only when the child in her belly moves, she feels a little, but more often, she is thinking, struggling, and even resentful.
Emperor Xia Hui knew the situation of Wei Chi Xue of Dao Dao, and naturally he was a little dissatisfied, although he knew that Dao Yu Chi Xue had a good relationship with his third son and was a loving husband and wife, but Yu Chi Xue had such a long relationship with his children, and Emperor Xia Hui was happy for his son, but he also felt that Yu Chi Xue was really not suitable to be the mother of a country.
In the past, he was blindsided, and Emperor Xia Hui felt that Yu Chixue was born in the Yu Chi family, and she was the eldest daughter of the concubine, and she was still studying in the palace, so she was also an excellent person. But I don't want to, Yu Chixue is indeed very good, but now that the prince is gone, Yu Chixue can't stand up, how can such a princess protect the child in her womb.
If it weren't for Emperor Xia Hui sending someone to protect him, and the people of the Yu Chi clan were also secretly protecting, Yu Chixue's birth would not have been saved. Therefore, Emperor Xia Hui sympathized with Yu Chixue from the beginning to be widowed at the beginning, but when he came to the back, he slowly looked down on Yu Chixue, and felt that Yu Chixue could not raise his grandson.
In the imperial study, Emperor Xia Hui kept coughing, thinking about who would give Yu Chixue's child to raise after it was born. Even the ten princes were killed by his side, and Emperor Xia Hui was really a little frightened, afraid that he would not be able to protect his imperial grandson. He can be ruthless to any prince and grandson, but for the three princes and the children of the three princes, Emperor Xia Hui still has feelings.
Although many people think that the eldest prince is more like Emperor Xia Hui, in the eyes of Emperor Xia Hui, the son of the third prince is most like him. The sick appearance of the eldest prince, Emperor Xia Hui felt unlucky, and even felt that the sick appearance of the eldest prince seemed to be cursing himself, as long as he saw the eldest prince, Emperor Xia Hui felt that he would also be sick like that.
So it seems that Emperor Xia Hui loves the eldest prince, but it is true, Emperor Xia Hui prefers the three princes, the three princes are like him, and the child is like him, and he is born with a dragon spirit and a tiger, good spirit, healthy body, and a temperament like himself.
Now that the first prince and the third prince are gone, Emperor Xia Hui often misses the three princes, and he will have a trace of fear. The repeated deaths of his sons made Emperor Xia Hui deeply feel lonely, and even feared that he would be dead. At this time, Emperor Xia Hui had already lost the sense of power he had at the beginning, and he didn't know when Lu Dao started, many things slowly got out of his control, and even he felt that he was old and powerless.
"Send more people to protect King Ning." Emperor Xia Hui waved his hand at the dark guard, and after the dark guard left, silence returned to the imperial study.
But on the side of Cining Palace, Empress Dowager Cui's expression was cloudy, and she spit out cold words in her mouth, "You must not let King Ning return to the capital alive, you must see people alive, and you must see corpses when you die, if you can't do it, you don't have to come back." ”
The four princes are outside, but the capital is already turbulent, and one after another lore orders have spread from the capital, and even all parties have moved. It's just that some people are there to protect the safety of the four princes, but more people are there to ask for the lives of the four princes, not to mention how many secret hands have been ambushed along the way.
At this time, King Ruijun did not want to rebel, he had a lot of actions in private, but on the surface, he had nothing to do with it.
But Baili Yanqing knew that King Ruijun was like this, but he just wanted to inherit the throne justifiably, as long as the son and grandson of Emperor Xia Hui were killed, then Emperor Xia Hui's heir could only be himself.
King Ruijun doesn't need to rebel at all, as long as the four princes are gone, and Emperor Xia Hui is gone, Yu Chixue's belly, even if he gives birth to the emperor's grandson, it is not enough.
Besides, it's a question of whether you live or not.
King Ruijun seems to have done everything on his side, as if he is confident, but on the other hand, Emperor Xia Hui is very passive.
And as a last resort, Emperor Xia Hui will not tear his face with King Ruijun, compared to King Ruijun, Emperor Xia Hui, who has been educated by the emperor since childhood, knows that once there is civil strife, it will give other countries an opportunity to take advantage of.
But King Ruijun has no scruples, his first consideration is whether he can ascend to the throne, which is this country and this world.
There is another point, Emperor Xia Hui is not moving now, he also wants to see the ability of the four princes.
"Door master, His Royal Highness King Ning went out of the city, there were a total of five men and horses as cover, and now the men and horses of the five sides have suffered serious attacks, and they have lost a lot of men and horses in ten days, and only half of the troops are left. His Royal Highness King Ning has now been secretly escorted by the prince on the way to Mount Tai, and there are still three days to arrive. ”
"Very good, keep probing, and if you find a suspicious person, you will be killed." Baili Yanqing's hand tightened, although she didn't experience it personally, she felt thrilling when she heard it-
