Chapter 253: Outstanding Changes
"Fourth brother, I have to be convinced, you have done everything you have done."
Emperor Shengxi said with a sigh.
"Didn't you notice that one of us suddenly disappeared, though?"
Zhao Xuan thought about it carefully, and then instantly grew his eyes and looked at Du Ruonan.
How did he not know that Du Ruonan was carrying the cloth out of Beijing, he originally thought that she was going to deliver the goods, and catching her would not play a role in deciding the overall situation, so after she left, Zhao Xuan didn't think of her at all.
Emperor Shengxi was also a little glad that it was Du Ruonan who went to borrow troops instead of Su Zhiyu at this time, and it was precisely because it was Du Ruonan that Zhao Xuancai didn't pay attention to it so much.
If Su Zhiyu goes, today's events will definitely change.
"Whoever underestimates a woman will suffer a big loss."
Emperor Shengxi said with a smile.
Zhao Xuan himself didn't expect that the final success or failure of this matter would be decided by Du Ruonan and a girl.
"Don't move."
Just when everyone's eyes were on Zhao Xuan and Du Ruonan, Lin Wan'er didn't know when she had an extra delicate dagger in her hand, and at this time, this dagger had already fallen on Su Mingyue's neck.
Lin Chengtian was also relieved when he saw this, fortunately, there was no accident with his daughter, otherwise it would be really difficult to leave today.
"Lin Wan'er, what do you want to do?"
Emperor Shengxi shouted.
Even if Zhao Xuan wanted to force the palace just now, he was not in such a hurry.
"Didn't you keep saying that your second master loves you? So now let's see if he loves his throne more, or if he loves you more. ”
Lin Wan'er leaned into Su Mingyue's ear and said.
"You put down the dagger, we can discuss something."
"There's no discussion, you can only choose one between the throne and Su Mingyue."
Lin Wan'er roared.
While roaring, he didn't control the dagger, and there were already blood stains on Su Mingyue's neck.
"This woman is really a wolf with ambition, and we were all about her at the time."
The ministers felt very disdainful of Lin Wan'er's behavior.
Lin Wan'er became more and more irritable when she heard this.
"Lin Wan'er, you are now the concubine of Emperor Shengxi, what good will it do you to do this?"
Su Zhiyu also found that Lin Wan'er was becoming irritable because of the ministers' words, so she diverted Lin Wan'er's attention and created an opportunity for Emperor Shengxi to save people.
"Hehe, what a concubine, he never touched me."
"Besides, if the fourth prince becomes the prince, I will be the queen, will my status be lower than now? Do you still need to look at other people's faces? ”
"And my father did such a thing, if Emperor Shengxi is still the emperor, will our father and daughter still have a chance to live? There are so many benefits, just a little bit is enough for me to do it. ”
Lin Wan'er sneered.
Hearing this, Emperor Shengxi's body stiffened, and Su Mingyue's body also stiffened.
He had never touched Lin Wan'er, and the news was too good for Emperor Shengxi, but the timing was wrong, and Su Mingyue's life was greatly threatened at this time.
"Let the guards stand down."
Seeing the guards approaching her, Lin Wan'er demanded.
Emperor Shengxi waved his hand and asked the guards to retreat, this was Su Mingyue's life, he didn't dare to gamble.
Just when Zhao Xuan saw the scene in front of him and wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, he suddenly felt a chill behind his back, if he hadn't reacted quickly, this sword would have stabbed him.
"Now your reliance is gone, as long as I move lightly, your dream of being a queen will be shattered."
Du Ruonan put the sword on Zhao Xuan's neck and said.
I don't know why, with Zhao Xuan's martial arts, he can obviously turn passive into active in an instant, so he has another hostage in his hand. In this way, Emperor Shengxi and Su Zhiyu will be bogeyed.
Emperor Shengxi and Su Zhiyu were very worried about Du Ruonan's behavior.
But contrary to their expectations, Zhao Xuan did not resist, and let Du Ruonan put the sword on his neck.
Hearing Du Ruonan's words, Lin Wan'er also looked at her. Emperor Shengxi seized the opportunity, grabbed her hand with the dagger, and subdued Lin Wan'er.
Su Zhiyu also hurriedly snatched the sword from Du Ruonan's hand, Zhao Xuan's body was on par with him, and he was sure that if this was the case, he would definitely be able to catch Du Ruonan.
Although he didn't understand why Zhao Xuan would give up resisting, maybe he gave up completely.
"Someone will take them down."
Emperor Shengxi ordered.
Soon things were put to rest.
The ministers who temporarily changed to Zhao Xuan's camp knelt down and pleaded for mercy at this time. However, Emperor Shengxi showed no mercy this time, and sent them to prison.
He still needs to think about how to deal with it.
And the rest of the ministers are not in the mood to continue celebrating this Mid-Autumn Festival because of such a thing.
It was truly an unforgettable night.
"I'll go find Mingyue."
was pulled by Su Zhiyu, Du Ruonan explained.
"Don't worry, the emperor will comfort her today, you better go back with me."
Su Zhiyu and Emperor Shengxi glanced at each other, and then pulled Du Ruonan away.
Mingyue Palace.
"Mingyue, are you okay?"
After Emperor Shengxi came back from the banquet, he had been by Su Mingyue's side, thinking that what had just happened must have made Su Mingyue's heart difficult to calm down.
Su Mingyue shook her head. 666 Literature Network
"You were wronged by the previous things, and I was forced to do many things before to protect you, but now that the matter is revealed, you don't have to endure these grievances anymore."
Emperor Shengxi took the opportunity to express his heart to Su Mingyue.
Su Mingyue was still angry in her heart because of the previous incident of Emperor Shengxi defending Lin Wan'er.
However, after listening to Emperor Shengxi's explanation, she was also much more cheerful.
"What you said is true?"
"Why should I deceive you?"
The two reconciled as before, Su Mingyue lay in the arms of Emperor Shengxi, and the two admired the beautiful moonlight today.
Prime Minister's Office.
"Ruonan, have you slept?"
Su Zhiyu tossed and turned in bed and couldn't sleep.
"You want to blame me for doing such a reckless thing today."
"First of all, this Lin Wan'er always bullied Mingyue, and even asked Mingyue to wash her clothes, I think she is very unpleasant."
"Secondly, I actually applied sweat medicine to that sword, and he was stabbed by me, so he didn't have the strength to fight back at all."
Du Ruonan knew what Su Zhiyu wanted to ask as soon as he guessed.
She knew that she was not Zhao Xuan's opponent, so how could she do such a thing that gave her life in vain.
"What if that sword didn't stab Zhao Xuan?"
Su Zhiyu suddenly asked again.
"That's the question...... Actually, I didn't think about it at the time, but it didn't end up succeeding. ”
Du Ruonan scratched his head and said with a smile.
"You are not allowed to do such a dangerous thing in the future, what if there is an accident?"
Su Zhiyu said very seriously.
Then he hugged Du Ruonan in his arms.
Du Ruonan obediently stuck to Su Zhiyu's chest.
The two of them haven't seen each other for more than a month, and the dry wood and fire are together, and the two of them are working hard for another night to fulfill Yurou's wishes.
Prison.
"Fourth brother didn't expect us to meet again in this way."
Emperor Shengxi was very emotional.
In fact, when they were children, the relationship between the two was very good, and their relationship was the best among the many brothers.
At that time, Emperor Shengxi was very active and climbed the palace wall to play.
also called Zhao Xuan to come up together, but Zhao Xuan was very stable when he was a child, so he advised Emperor Shengxi to be careful. But Emperor Shengxi loved the scenery seen above.
He was running merrily on it.
With one foot in the air, he fell off the palace wall.
Zhao Xuan saw that there was a broken wooden board underneath, if Emperor Shengxi fell like this, it was very likely that his life would be lost. At this critical moment, Zhao Xuan pushed the fallen Emperor Shengxi away.
And he fell straight down because of the huge resistance, and the broken plank left an inch-deep hole in his back.
Emperor Shengxi was also slightly injured at that time, but compared to Zhao Xuan's, it was nothing.
It was also at that time that Emperor Shengxi regarded Zhao Xuan as a brother.
No matter what happens in the future, he will definitely let Zhao Xuan, because his life is all exchanged for him.
"Actually, now that I think about it, I regret saving you in the first place, if I hadn't saved you at that time, the person sitting on the throne today must have been me."
Zhao Xuan said self-deprecatingly.
"I've been very grateful to you for saving my life all these years."
Emperor Shengxi knew that there was no problem with what Zhao Xuan said.
And even if he was there, if Su Zhiyu hadn't insisted on pulling him into the palace that day, the throne would not have been his.
If there is no competitor of himself, Zhao Xuan must be the most perfect heir in the emperor's heart.
"Time has passed, and we've all changed."
Zhao Xuan said with emotion.
He is no longer the boy who didn't care about the powerful at the beginning.
Emperor Shengxi is no longer the active teenager.
"Actually, I have always known what you have done, and I have known about the matter of the seventh brother from the beginning, but I relented at that time, because you saved my life."
Hearing what Emperor Shengxi said, Zhao Xuan was very surprised.
"Looks like I've lost completely."
Zhao Xuan thought about it at this time, it turned out that he was really too far behind Emperor Shengxi.
He could even look into it.
"No, in fact, as long as you are dedicated to the people, the throne will be yours sooner or later, and I will not compete with you, but you are pressing everywhere, and you want my life all the time, and you have buried your life in vain."
Emperor Shengxi said earnestly.
"Over the years, I have been too obsessed with imperial power, thinking that as long as I sit in the whole position, I have supreme power and can do whatever I want, but now I find that I am wrong."
Zhao Xuan said with great remorse.
Once upon a time, he and Emperor Shengxi worked together to give advice to the emperor and guide the country.
Once upon a time, he led his troops with Emperor Shengxi and returned triumphantly.
Not long since......
But he was carried away by the throne and let him go further and further down the wrong path. Until now, he has embarked on the road of plotting to usurp the throne.
