"Oh?" The emperor straightened the wide sleeved robe embroidered with dragon patterns in Liming, his eyes moved from the pattern of double dragons playing with pearls on the desk, and looked at the prince's face very seriously, "You really hope that your father will live a long life." ”

Although Emperor Yongkang's tone was calm, his eyes were like a strong wind blowing, with a bit of deterrence.

Such an emperor is something that the crown prince has never seen.

Or that he was a little weak-hearted, and unconsciously pushed the wheelchair back half a foot away, and the sound of the wooden wheels was particularly clear in the huge open hall.

"Father, of course I hope that my father will live a long and healthy life. Erchen still wants to grow up under the wings of his father, and Erchen can't do anything now. ”

After the crown prince finished speaking, he felt that his words fell lightly in the air around him, and he realized that only he and the emperor were left in the entire hall.

"I don't think you're under-fledged, but you want to spread your wings and fly, don't you?" Emperor Yongkang lowered his eyes and no longer looked at the prince.

But the prince felt that he couldn't see the emperor's eyes, which made him even more panicked.

"Father, you have never treated your sons like this, did someone tell you something?"

The prince glanced at the golden pill on the case, "Do you think there is something wrong with this pill?" ”

The crown prince turned the wooden wheel again, drove the wheelchair, and brought himself closer to Emperor Yongkang, "Father, you misunderstood your son." This elixir is really ......."

At this point, the prince simply stretched out his arm, grabbed the golden pill placed in the brocade box, swallowed it in one gulp, and swallowed it with a bang.

After he was calm, he hurriedly spoke: "Father, you see, all the ministers have eaten this pill, and there is nothing to do." This is really a son's honor......"

Emperor Yongkang watched the prince paint his voice and color, foaming at the mouth, and raised his hand to interrupt him.

But then the prince asked rhetorically: "Did I misunderstand you?" You have made a lot of money along the coast of the south of the Yangtze River, and you have co-opted Wenchen in the court, and how many innocent teenagers have you harmed in the name of cultivation, and you say that I have misunderstood you, so you tell me, what are you trying to do? ”

The prince's shoulders shook, realizing that things were not good, but there was still room for turning around, as long as that matter was not exposed, he believed that there was still room for turnaround.

The prince propped up his arms and fell to the ground from the wheelchair, making a grunt, this bitter ploy should have worked.

Although he was not born to the queen, the queen treated him like her own over the years, and she only had him, the sister-in-law raised under her knees.

The father seems to be impartial to the six palaces, but he loves the queen the most in his heart, which he knows better than anyone else.

"Father!" The prince played a bitter trick.

If the emperor already knows about Jiangnan, then it is useless for him to hide it, it is better to admit his mistake obediently, as long as he saves his life first, and then begs his mother, maybe he can even keep the position of the crown prince.

"Father! Erchen knows that he is wrong! Erchen is congenitally deficient, his legs are disabled, and Erchen is insecure, but there is really no other attempt! ”

The prince fell to the ground, crying with snot and tears, but he showed a little childlike innocence and a woman's weakness, "Erchen really knows that he is wrong." ”

The emperor looked at the crown prince coldly, snorted coldly, but did not say anything more, but waved his hand.

At this time, a waiter in a red robe slowly walked into the main hall with a tray in his hand, and a bowl of steaming soup on the tray.

When the prince smelled the familiar smell, he felt a shock in his body and his mind went blank.

The emperor loved to drink a kind of honey syrup, which was specially concocted by the queen, and later this secret recipe was taught to the tea room dedicated to serving the emperor.

But this Fang Zi Prince also knows.

Therefore, the pill he sent someone to carefully develop would not harm his body at all if swallowed alone, which is why the prince dared to swallow it in front of Emperor Yongkang.

However, if you drink this honey syrup again within three days, you will surely die violently.

And no cause of death could be found.

Because the person who served the emperor honey syrup for the past three days may be the eunuch next to him, the queen, or Princess Shuyi.

This is the reason why the prince approached Princess Shuyi in the past two days.

It also happened to make him find a good reason.

He helped Princess Shuyi and the emperor propose the marriage, and then secretly stirred up the pornography, and then pushed Princess Shuyi to make a big fuss in front of the emperor.

Then the reason for the emperor's violent death can also be naturally pushed to Princess Shuyi's body, so that she carried this pot.

It's just that now, why did he swallow that pill, and why was there another bowl of honey syrup being served to him.

The prince's face unconsciously dripped.

He wiped his sweat and called out in a trembling voice, "Father." ”

"Don't call me." Emperor Yongkang slapped one hand on the desk in front of him, as if the pain in his hand could hide his heartache.

"You've disappointed me so much." Perhaps this is the last thing parents in the world want to say to their children.

"You can actually do something to kill your father, what else is there to say." Emperor Yongkang waved his hand at the red-robed eunuch.

"Father's ......"

Emperor Yongkang didn't want to say anything more, the pain in his heart gradually came up again, he was afraid that he would finally soften his heart.

"Father......" The prince wanted to say anything more, but he had already been pointed at the acupuncture points by the red-robed eunuch behind him.

This red-robed eunuch has followed Emperor Yongkang for many years and is a rare master.

The eunuch knew the pain in Emperor Yongkang's heart, sped up the movement of his hand, poured a bowl of honey syrup into the prince's mouth, and went down the way.

Rao is like this, Emperor Yongkang still glanced at the prince again with anticipation.

This may be a common problem of parents all over the world, always thinking that their child is good, and always wanting to give him another chance.

If the crown prince really didn't have the heart to kill his father, maybe he could save his life, and let the queen not experience the pain of losing her son in the last days.

The red-robed eunuch understood the emperor's mind the most, and at this time he solved the prince's acupuncture points.

But the prince in front of him, after drinking this bowl of honey syrup, picked his throat vigorously, wanting to spit out this bowl of honey syrup.

This action already said it all, and Emperor Yongkang sighed sadly.

After several struggles, the prince kicked his legs and remained motionless in the main hall, as if he were asleep.

The red-robed eunuch stepped forward to probe the prince's snort, and then said, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Son of Heaven has taken his leave." ”

Emperor Yongkang rubbed his temples and leaned on the dragon chair behind him, "Carry it down." ”

After a pause, he said: "Mourn according to the prince's etiquette." ”

In the eleventh year of Yongkang, Chu Qixu, the prince of the Great Chu State, died, and was mourned according to the crown prince and buried in the imperial mausoleum of the Great Chu State.

Emperor Yongkang still left the crown prince the dignity of a deceased person, and also saved the face of the royal family.
