"Father slowly figured out whether to write this abdication edict or not." The second prince stood proudly in front of the emperor.

The emperor did not intend to give in, and he threw the abdication edict to the ground.

The second prince saw that the abdication edict was dirty, and immediately asked people to take another copy in.

The emperor didn't say a word, he wiped the blood he coughed up with a handkerchief.

Shunxi is most clear about the emperor's condition, the emperor can't last long, he has been waiting for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come back, but unexpectedly, the second prince suddenly became troubled.

"Father and Emperor slowly think clearly, and the sons and daughters will go out first and deal with the rest of the things first."

After the second prince finished speaking, he walked out of the door, the door was open, and there were guards guarding the door.

The news was received in the capital, and all the ministers, except for the second prince's henchmen, were all guarding outside the palace gate.

The officials led by the prime minister did not believe that the emperor was sick, and besides, the Praetorian Guard was guarded layer by layer, and even the gate out of the capital could not be leaked.

They received the news as soon as possible, that is, the news of the second prince's rebellion.

"Let the second prince come out, what's wrong with the emperor? We want to see the emperor! ”

There was a huge crowd of people outside the palace gate, in addition to the officials and the people who came to see the excitement after hearing the news, they didn't know what was going on, but they surrounded the outside.

When the second prince heard the movement outside, he laughed evilly, and was waiting for you, so he sent it to the door.

He ordered the Praetorian Guards to put the officials into the palace, and the rest of the people craned their necks to look inside, only to be frightened back by the Janissaries' swords.

The prime minister led everyone to the outside of the imperial study and shouted: "We want to meet the emperor!" ”

The second prince stood on the steps, blocking their view, and he politely said to the prime minister: "Father is not feeling well now, I am afraid that I will not be able to meet you, so I specially sent this king to entertain you." ”

The prime minister arched his hand to the second prince and said: "The minister wants to meet the emperor in person, and ask the prince to make a report, the minister will not make a sound, just go in and have a look." ”

The second prince thought to himself, if you are allowed to enter, won't it be exposed?

At this time, the Imperial Doctor came.

The second prince hurriedly gave up his pace and said politely to the prime minister: "It's unfortunate, it just so happened that the imperial doctor came, the prime minister, you wait here first, this king asked him to go in to diagnose his father's pulse, and his father's health is important." ”

The prime minister naturally saw the imperial doctor, and he asked the imperial doctor, "Imperial doctor, how is the emperor's health?" ”

The imperial doctor glanced at the second prince, made a worried look, and said: "I'm afraid the emperor's health is not good, the minister will go first, and after the pulse is diagnosed, the minister will come out to report to the adults." ”

The second prince raised his eyebrows at the prime minister, as if I was right, "You believe it this time, Lord Prime Minister?" ”

The prime minister stood straight and said to the second prince: "The minister also wants to go in." ”

The second prince has a ghost in his heart, how can he really let the prime minister in, he glanced at the guards behind him, and the guards immediately blocked in front of the prime minister.

Prime Minister: "What do you mean?" ”

The second king politely said: "What my father needs now is a doctor, and you are not a doctor, and you can't enter without your father's summons, so you should wait here." ”

When the imperial physician came to the imperial study, he saw the emperor sitting upright on the dragon chair, his heart was weak for a while, and his legs immediately weakened.

The second prince came in and saw his unpromising appearance, and mocked in a low voice: "What are you afraid of?" Now this king is in charge, you just give your father the pulse, and your father will not embarrass you. ”

The imperial doctor trembled his legs and crawled to the emperor's side, he saluted the emperor, "The minister knocks on the emperor, please let Weichen give you a pulse." ”

The emperor did not embarrass the imperial physician as the second prince said, he stretched out his hand and put it on the imperial doctor's pillow towel.

The imperial doctor carefully checked the emperor's pulse, his face was serious, and after a long time, he let go of the emperor's hand.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid your health is not very good, and Weichen can only conservatively prescribe some medicine to recuperate for you, but it can't cure it."

The emperor has always had an imperial doctor by his side, so he naturally knows the condition of his body.

He said to the second prince, "I can't die for the time being." ”

The second prince hurriedly said: "How can it be, the son hopes that his father will live a long life." ”

The emperor said at this time: "You bring Lao Qi and Xian Guifei here, I will say a few words to them, and the edict of abdication will naturally be signed after I have spoken to them." ”

The second prince didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and his crossed hand hurriedly put it down.

"Father and emperor are waiting, and the son will go and bring the seventh child over, oh, yes, and the concubine."

"Go, I'll wait for them to come." The emperor's weak voice came from the imperial study, and he was able to hold on to it so far

The second prince was happy in his heart, and when he thought that he would be able to become the emperor immediately, he couldn't help but speed up.

As soon as he went out, the officials surrounded him again, and he immediately ordered the Praetorian Guard to invite them to the palace on the other side.

"Come on, please go to the palace to rest, the emperor now wants to see the Seventh Highness and the Xian Guifei, you Sudu invite the two of them over."

The second prince thought that the fifth child also had a daughter in the palace of the virtuous concubine, and he reminded the Praetorian Guard: "The emperor still wants to see the prince's little princess, you invite her over." ”

The fifth daughter's daughter can be used to make an article, this is the only heir of the fifth child, and the second prince doesn't believe that his father won't feel sorry for her.

The Praetorian Guard was ordered to invite people, and the palace was already controlled by the second prince's people.

In fact, the second prince did not send Murong Chen to the Jingbei Marquis Mansion, he just wanted to use this as an excuse to threaten the emperor.

Now that the emperor wants to see Murong Chen, the second prince immediately sent someone to invite him.

Murong Chen and Concubine Xian went to the imperial study together, he heard the rumors early in the morning, but he didn't dare to believe that his second emperor brother had rebelled.

When he passed by the second prince, he glanced at him suspiciously, and then followed Concubine Xian in.

The second prince was not afraid of accidents, and when he could close it, he left the imperial study.

After the two of them came in, Murong Chen saw his father sitting on the dragon chair, and he hurriedly asked, "Father, what's the matter?" The retainers heard them say that the second emperor brother had rebelled! ”

He still has a bit of luck in his heart, what if not?

But the emperor's next sentence broke his thoughts, "The second brother has rebelled, you come here!" ”

Murong really couldn't believe that his father was mistaken.

Shunxi said: "Your Royal Highness Seven, the emperor did not lie to you, the second prince did rebel, and this palace was controlled by him inside and out." ”

"So what do we do now? How could the royal brother do such a rebellious thing! ”

Xian Guifei hugged the little county lord, she heard the word rebellion, cold sweat broke out on her back, she asked the emperor for help: "Your Majesty, what should we do?" ”

Since the second prince rebelled, then it was impossible for him to let them go, and when the time came, they would all die!

"Come with me!"

The emperor said only three words and motioned for them to follow him.

The four of them came to the back of the screen of the imperial study, and the emperor moved a round wooden block under the bed, and suddenly the bed split in two and an aisle appeared.

"Father, this is?" Murong Chen stared at the aisle and asked.

The emperor said: "I can't rest assured that you two, you go out from here, keep walking along the mark, this secret room leads to the outside of the capital, you go to the prince, in short, don't look back!" ”

"Erchen can't go, Rong Shaoxia got a lot of explosives, we can get explosives to blow up the imperial brother's Praetorian Guards." Murong Chen took a few steps back, refusing to go in.

The emperor sighed and said: "How can it be so easy, the Praetorian Guards are all controlled by the second child, and it is not one or two people, how can you deal with thousands of people, listen to me, hurry up!" ”

The emperor didn't know what the explosives Murong Chen was talking about, he only thought that Murong Chen was joking.

Shunxi hurriedly persuaded: "Let's go, Your Highness, Niangniang, the second prince is coming back soon, and it will be too late if you don't leave." ”

Concubine Xian held the little princess, she was even more hesitant, and the emperor was the first to push her in.

Concubine Xian grabbed the emperor with her backhand and begged bitterly, "Your Majesty, you can go with us!" Can't leave you here alone! ”

The emperor smiled with satisfaction, "It's enough to have your words, I can't go in, I am here, he has to step on my corpse even if he chases and kills, he doesn't dare!" ”

Shunxi's little father-in-law also pushed Murong Chen forward, and after entering, the emperor hurried out.

Murong Chen was unwilling to return, but the emperor pressed the wooden block early, and he watched the secret room close.

"Don't, let me out, I'm not leaving."

Shunxi burst into tears, "Go quickly, go to His Royal Highness the Prince, as long as you find His Royal Highness the Prince, everything will be fine!" ”

After the emperor calmed down, he shouted at Murong Chen: "This is my will, you leave quickly, don't disobey my order, and find Sheng'er alive!" ”

After the secret room was closed, it suddenly fell into darkness, and the little county lord was so frightened that he cried.

Xian Guifei had no choice but to coax her, Murong Chen wiped away his tears, and he took Xian Guifei forward with his hand.

I don't know how long they walked, they saw a torch through the fire fold, Murong Chen picked up the wine jar next to him, and instantly lit the torch.

Finally saw the way in the secret room, and the little county lord only quieted down after seeing the torch, but suddenly stopped and she was a little uncomfortable and hiccuped.

Murong Chen took Concubine Xian all the way along the markers on the wall, not daring to stop along the way.

After the emperor sent Murong Chen away, he sat back on the dragon chair, and the second prince who had gone and returned returned returned to the imperial study, and when he came in, he only saw the emperor and Shunxi.

"Where's the seventh? Father, you let him go? And Xian Guifei! ”

The second prince looked at the hidden window, and immediately opened him to look outside.

It's bad, the second prince is annoyed in his heart, he is careless.

"Come on, go find someone, His Royal Highness the Seventh and Concubine Xian have run away, you must find them!"

When the emperor was in a hurry, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly.

The second prince happened to catch a glimpse, and he said angrily: "Father, don't think that if you let them go, your sons won't be able to catch them, in the palace, your sons are more familiar than Lao Qi, and your sons will arrest them even if they dig three feet into the ground!" ”

"Then you go and catch it." The emperor smiled indifferently, and he couldn't catch it even if you dug three feet into the ground.

The second prince came to the dragon chair, he looked at the abdication edict full of ink, and his lungs were about to explode, "Father, don't force me!" ”
