Chapter 265: Who Will Believe
Their affection surprised everyone else, after all, almost everyone knew about Gu Qin's love for Su Manxue, and everyone felt that his marriage was just forced.
However, now that he saw their Qin Se and Ming's appearance, he couldn't help but blush, Gu Qin didn't care about explaining so much at all, and his whole mind was on Chu Yin.
Chu Yin has become more and more delicate these days, and even she has to feed her with her own hands, so she is willing to eat a few bites, in order to let her eat more, Gu Qin has to learn to serve people.
As the prince of Pingyang, although he is gentle and humble, he has never served people, and he has been served by the people around him since he was a child.
At first, he was very unaccustomed to serving others to eat, but later it was like he had tasted fun, even if Chu Yin didn't speak, he took the initiative to feed her with vegetables.
On weekdays, even the princess couldn't stand her son's appearance, and the other ministers also felt quite strange and staggering when they saw Gu Qin serving Chu Yin.
As for the wives of those ministers, seeing that Chu Yin was so favored by her husband, they all decided to associate with her more in the future and learn some imperial husband skills from her.
Chu Yin didn't know that he had become the object of envy of everyone, and this heart was immersed in his gentleness, and he couldn't pay attention to other people at all.
The sweet and greasy atmosphere between them made Zhao Jun frown, and he glanced at Su Manxue and Ji Jiuhua, who were chatting happily in the corner, and only felt that everyone in the world was against him.
Su Manxue's stomach growled twice, she hadn't eaten lunch in the first place, and now she was naturally hungry, but the emperor and other concubines had not arrived, where did she dare to move her chopsticks, she could only look at the delicacies in front of her, and use this method of quenching her thirst to make herself feel a little better.
"Your Majesty has arrived! Queen, the concubine has arrived! ”
Fortunately, after a while, the emperor and several concubines arrived at the main hall one after another.
Su Manxue only then began to move her chopsticks, and the emperor had lost a lot of weight in a very short period of time, and now he looked like skin and bones, and he had a feeling that he was about to fall down at any time.
It looks even more serious than the sick and weak Duanwang, and the princes present naturally started to think, it seems that no matter how strong the emperor is, he won't be able to last long.
They all want this throne, whether they have this strength or not, born in the royal family, who can not have the ambition to be on the throne.
Several princes present here have their own thoughts, and the former brothers, friends, and brothers all disappeared overnight, and they all regarded each other as their enemies.
Only King Duan, who hadn't come out of his dormitory for a few days, looked even paler now, and coughed almost every once in a while.
The sharp-eyed people can still see the blood stains on the handkerchief, and they may not live to live for a month, so naturally they don't take him seriously.
Now there are tigers and wolves, all busy dealing with the crown prince and the highly supported six princes, and no one is willing to waste their strength to deal with a dying Nine Emperor Princes.
Even became more and more kind to him, after all, he was about to die, and they didn't mind being kind and doing enough of the last face-saving project.
Zhao Jun looked at them coldly and smiled at him, knowing that they didn't take themselves seriously from the beginning, let alone thinking that they would also have the ambition to compete for the throne.
In fact, he has coveted this position for more than ten years, and now, it is just one day away from winning this position, how can he give up this position as they wish.
Zhao Jun lowered his head, revealing a sarcastic smile, and when he raised his head again, he looked gentle again, like a person who was about to die saying his last words.
His smile was almost not seen by anyone, but Su Manxue saw it, she frowned slightly, and only felt that this person was even more terrifying than she imagined.
Su Manxue sighed, always feeling that this battle for the throne might not fall into anyone's hands in the end, and seeing the prince's proud look, she felt even more embarrassed.
The crown prince didn't know that he was being targeted, he was busy dealing with the courtiers who came to curry favor with him, and then looked at his father on the high platform, and couldn't help but show a smile that was bound to win.
The crown princess poured him a full bottle of wine, "Prince, it's better to drink less, otherwise when you return to the East Palace, you will have a headache again." Her tone was soft, and the prince smiled at her: "It's okay, you should drink more if you are happy today." ”
Since he had already said so, the crown princess couldn't continue to persuade him, so she could only watch him drink more and more, and finally couldn't control his emotions and raised the wine glass in his hand.
"Ladies and gentlemen, when Gu ascends to the throne, you must be indispensable, come and continue to drink, why don't you drink anymore?"
The prince looked at the stunned ministers blankly, not understanding why they suddenly stopped drinking when they had drunk well before, and knelt down.
The crown princess's face turned pale, and she pulled the prince to kneel, "Father, mother, the prince drank too much, and he didn't choose what to say for a while, and asked his father to calm his anger." ”
The prince only felt a basin of cold water splashed down, he suddenly woke up half of his wine, realized what he had just said, and now he wanted to give himself a few slaps, and he didn't understand how he had just said such a big rebellious thing.
He was sweating all over his head in a hurry, "Father, the son is wrong, the son is rebellious, he really drank too much, his brain is not clear, and his father is angry." ”
Several other princes knelt down together, although they felt strange in their hearts, the prince had always been cautious in his words and deeds, how could something go wrong at such a time.
But no matter how he said that, there was no chance to continue to fight with them for the throne, and he had completely lost this opportunity.
"You've disappointed me."
The emperor coughed for a while, wiped the blood from his lips, sighed and said, and then passed on the edict to abolish the prince and imprison the prince in the court, and he was not allowed to come out for life.
The prince was paralyzed on the ground, not believing that he had fallen into the dust overnight, and the ministers who stood on the prince's side, knowing that their death was approaching, were all like dirt, and no one asked the prince to intercede at this juncture.
Those princes who flatter him on weekdays, no one spoke at all, but gloated behind their backs, and now there is no more, the prince and his princes are all standing on the same level.
Why should they intercede for the prince, instead of pinning all their hopes in the future on the prince, it is better to rely on themselves to fight for a future.
The crown prince knocked down the wall overnight, and even the crown princess was forced to return to her parents' house.
After Su Manxue and Ji Jiuhua returned to the Ji Mansion, they still felt uneasy, and always felt that this matter was a little strange, the prince's expression at that time was clearly a little wrong, and even if he was drunk, he would not say such confused words.
She always felt that this matter might have been deliberately done by someone, and the first person to suspect it was Zhao Jun, only by getting rid of the crown prince could he have a chance to fight for the throne, and he clearly wanted to fight for the throne.
