123: Succession
Jinluan Palace, because Guozijian has a great Confucian lecture today, so the emperor allowed officials other than the six Shangshu and the emperor's teacher to listen to the class.
When Hua Pei Qingyu and Old Man Wang came out of the secret room, it happened to be a large column in a corner of the Jinluan Palace, which did not bear the weight of the beams, pushed open the hidden door, breathed lightly, and the oppressive atmosphere filled the Jinluan Palace.
Old man Wang wanted to call, stretched his neck and poked his head, like a duck several times, and looked sideways at Pei Qingyu, who was smiling at him in a panic, when did she give herself dumb medicine again?
In his life, he is really a woman, a woman, a woman, a woman all his life, and he is also a female doll who loses cleanly, God, can't you let a strong and capable woman clean me up?
At the very least, it comforts me!
At least, he won't feel aggrieved!
Because the King of Liao secretly entered the palace, he suddenly made a mistake under the banner of admitting his mistake, which caught everyone off guard, and no one noticed Hua Pei Qingyu and Old Man Wang who appeared next to him out of thin air.
Old man Wang lay on the ground, keeping quiet, he had lost all his abilities and turned into a lump of soft flesh in human form.
"You're trying to rebel?" The man who stood up from the dragon chair had gray hair, his physique looked healthy, his eyes were clear, his facial features were elegant, and his body was full of bookish air.
"Of course not! Father, son, just want a fair, want a way to live.
If it is a rebellion, will it be the sons who enter the palace alone? ”
"Who said that rebellion requires a large army? Of course, the imperial brother doesn't need to besiege the palace with a large army, he only needs to control the Jinluan Palace, which is at the peak of power! Of course, the forbidden army guarding the Jinluan Palace is not the opponent of your private dead soldiers, and those standing here at this time are all important ministers of the imperial court, without them, the empire will suffer heavy losses, and their deaths, the imperial brother can effortlessly plant the blame on me or my father.
Because of their loyalty to the empire, they could only be buried with them, but they could be rewarded by the new emperor after their deaths.
And the father and the prince, it doesn't matter how they died, the important thing is that they died!
Because, the truth is written by the victors.
Of course, in order to protect me and them, my father had to be forced to give way to you in exchange for a glimmer of life, but he was also imprisoned and died quietly, after all, the whole country knows that the prince is suffering from a serious illness and can die at any time. ”
Xiao Jingyu's cold voice echoed in the hall, and he laughed, and he burst into tears, because he saw Hua Pei Qingyu.
"Is your body worth the effort I have to work on?" The king of Liao does not cut.
"You think I'm being unfair to you? Have you forgotten the origin of your mother? Have you forgotten your present princely dignity? Holding heavy troops, holding the power of one side of the army, and one side of the people. Why, if you have a little merit, you forget your shape and want to sit on this dragon chair? Do you think that your princely position was earned by your merits? Those brothers of yours, you alone are in charge of the army, because they are worse than you and can't control the soldiers?
You are not choosing a way to live, it is a road of life or death, with your people, you are proud of the merits, and your mother is begging for death. ”
"Father, everyone knows that the prince is weak and has an incurable heart disease, but because of the queen, because of preference, selfishness, you handed over the country to him? Why? Erchen has to do it for the sake of the country! Erchen promised to treat the prince well, and Erchen also invited a famous doctor to treat him, so that he would be rich and worry-free for the rest of his life. ”
