Chapter 14: The Struggle for the Throne
In the palace, the queen of the demon Ye is staring at her brother at the moment, and now the high-ranking and powerful Lord Xiangguo, on the side, the second son is waiting anxiously. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Lord Xiangguo, didn't you say that Yeming would never come back? But now he's back. ”
Her eyes twinkled with unease and she questioned.
"Is the queen questioning me? You know, we are one, and the failure of the plan is bad news for you and me, so how can I not be careful?
He only entered the border of Chen Guo yesterday, and the people who did it were already waiting for him there. Who knows how he got to the capital in one day, how he escaped the robbery, and what could I do if such an incredible thing happened?"
This Xiangguo is short and chubby, but he has a treacherous appearance.
"If the king wakes up, or the crown prince succeeds to the throne, then don't say that my son can't succeed to the throne, we will all be unlucky, how can this be good? ”
"Either he dies, or we die, the old immortal is already dying, and the next successor can only be the eldest son's eldest son, the crown prince, your son wants to succeed to the throne?
Your son, my nephew can't succeed to the throne, then your son is just a scholar, not to mention the power of you and me, if Ye Ming knew that after we sent someone to attack and kill him, he would not have left us in a high position after succeeding to the throne.
If we don't act, there is still room for riches, and if we do, there is only success and death!"
Xiang Guo's words, but the queen and the second prince were terrified, they didn't expect the consequences to be so serious.
I thought it would be easy to do this, but I didn't expect the situation to turn sharply and the crisis was endless.
"So what to do?"
"Let him die! Drag him before seeing the king, first ask him to bathe and change clothes, take the opportunity to poison, ambush the knife and axeman, double preparation, and will definitely be killed!"
Xiangguo's words were ruthless, but they made the queen look forward to it.
Her son must inherit the throne!
During the whole process, the second son did not say a word, but he was also looking forward to the day when he ascended the throne.
Zhuang Xia followed Yeming Gongzi in the palace, King Chen's palace is very large, but it is not particularly big, and it is a bit big, how to say it, it is still big.
Ignoring the above nonsense, Prince Yeming wanted to meet the monarch to see how his father's condition was, but he was stopped by the queen's people and asked him to go to the bath and change clothes on the grounds of untidy appearance, and solemnly go to see the monarch.
"Oh, that's a good reason, but don't you just go with the queen's people, go to the bath and change clothes, and aren't you afraid of death?"
Zhuang Xia had nothing, and he was still waiting for this prince to arrange a place for him to live, but he didn't want him to die like this.
"What then, will you go back to my mansion?"
Ye Ming is in the palace, he still has to abide by the etiquette, and there is nothing wrong with the queen letting him bathe and change clothes.
"Who knows that your mansion has not been managed for three years, and it is not safe. Wash your fart, just go, maybe your father wakes up and sees you so anxious to see him, and he looks like a dusty servant and is still very happy. The queen's words are a fart, and if she is not well-dressed, she will be gossiped a few words at most. ”
Although Zhuang Xia's words sounded vulgar and his ideas did not conform to the etiquette laws of the palace, they were very suitable for extraordinary moments.
"Alright, that's it. ”
Zhuang Xia accompanied the crown prince, so that he was very confident, at least his personal safety was guaranteed, as long as he did not die, as the eldest son, the person who inherited the throne must be him.
What he has to do is to re-engage his father and the king to accept him and change power safely, otherwise, if the king dies without saying a word, after he inherits the throne, it will be difficult to convince everyone and let the important ministers assist, I don't know how much time it will take.
The two ignored the attendants' words and went straight to the king's bedroom.
"The queen, Xiangguo, and the prince went directly to the king's bedroom. ”
Hearing the words of the attendants, the queen was furious, which was completely out of her plan.
"It doesn't matter, the monarch may not be awake once in a few days, and the time to be awake at a time is less than an hour, and the last time the monarch woke up was only yesterday, and he can't wake up today. ”
Sangkoku-sama is confident.
However, the queen still frowned, and made up her mind that when the prince saw the king, she must act as soon as possible, and she could not let him live.
Gongzi Yeming had a firm attitude all the way, regardless of the guards' obstruction, he retreated them, and directly entered the king's bedroom, and saw Chen Guojun lying on the bed.
Chen Guojun was only thirty or forty years old at this time, which was considered a young and strong age, but the wine and enjoyment had already hollowed out his body.
This age may have exceeded the average life expectancy of this era, but the monarch's living environment is so good that he has this level, and I have to say that the personal life is too bad.
In addition to the harsh living environment, the length of life is related to genes, but also to lifestyle habits.
Reasonable living habits make the recovery of the body greater than the loss, and exercise all parts of the body, and the life span is naturally long.
And the profession of the monarch is the most enviable in this era except for the Son of Heaven, but the people in this position do not live long and enter the underworld early.
How ridiculous.
However, if you think about it carefully, you will find that the peasants deserved to die a long time ago, and the peasants could live to be sixty or seventy years old without disasters, but the emperor only lived to be fifty years old without disasters.
Their women are so beautiful that they are drained in bed, their diet is too good, they are as fat as pigs with big bellies, and they work too well to be physically weak without exercise.
To sum up the above reasons, a man who is weak, fat, and kidney deficient, who dies earlier if he doesn't die?
And it seems that in the twenty-first century, many people suffer from this emperor's disease, but unfortunately, these people are not at a high level. And some of the super-rich, the long life span is admirable.
It's funny that it's reversed.
Chen Guoguojun is a fat man with a weak body, who happened to be seriously ill, and the medical environment in this era is not good, so he can't afford to get sick, and it is estimated that he will die in a few months at most.
There is no immortal in the world, but the countdown to his death came a little early, especially his wealth and glory have not been enjoyed enough.
The monarch with a dull and yellow face was lying on the bed at the moment, even if Ye Ming called and shook, he didn't stretch out his fingers or move his eyelids.
"Father, father, son, son has come back from Zhao Kingdom, open your eyes and take a look. ”
For a long time, Zhuang Xia listened to Ye Ming talking like a filial son by the bedside, serving beside him, until the queen came to urge.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, the king needs to rest, you better go back early. It's time to take a break. ”
"This doesn't bother the queen to worry, I still want to accompany my father and the king for a moment or two, say something, please ask the queen to go back first." ”
The two spoke politely, but in fact, they wished that each other would die, and Zhuang Xia was disgusted and wanted to vomit.
"Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to stay, let's stay, but pay attention to your body. Hehe. I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to bring a child back. ”
She shook her head, and after speaking, dragged her long skirt and swayed away.
"My father is seriously ill and can't wake up, what should I do? I have been away from the country for many years, and I have no one to rely on in the country, who should I find for help?"
The prince's brows furrowed, and he thought hard.
"Before you inherit the throne, you are likely to die, and the magnates in the country will not make a choice in advance, and the risk is too great.
It's best not to use your relatives, otherwise you will bury trouble after you inherit the throne.
The best option is to wake up your father, summon the ministers, order you to succeed to the throne immediately after his death, and appoint auxiliary ministers to stabilize the state of Chen.
By that time, you will have no more enemies. ”
"But my father is in a coma, how can I revive him?"
"I have a way. ”
Zhuang Xia smiled, took a bowl of water, and dripped some spiritual fluid, but it was pitiful, and it could only allow the monarch's body to temporarily replenish energy, and it would be exhausted after more than an hour.
Zhuang Xia didn't say that he could make the monarch's body recover, and even live for many more years, Yeming didn't ask, the two had a tacit understanding.
After drinking some water, in less than a quarter of an hour, the monarch really woke up, and at this moment he was in a clear consciousness, his body was full of energy, and it seemed that he had been cured of his illness.
But he also clearly knew that the weakness under such ease could also feel the rapid flow of these energies.
"Are you going to die?
After being ill for more than three months, he knew that his life was short, and he was just waiting for the prince's return and working hard, otherwise he would not have written a letter to the monarch of Zhao Guoguo.
At this moment, he was excited and happy to see Prince Yeming.
"My son, you're finally back, I've been waiting for you so hard!"
The prince fell to his knees with a puff: "Father, the son is finally back." ”
"Is it safe on the road?"
"There are many twists and turns. ”
"Thank you for your hard work, I didn't know that this illness came so suddenly, otherwise I would definitely not have made your second brother's biological mother the queen and caused such a situation. ”
He knew very well in his heart, but because he was seriously ill and weak, Xiangguo controlled the government, and the queen was in charge of the palace, and his orders were intercepted and did not work.
"The sons and daughters don't dare to blame their father, but the traitors are responsible for this. ”
"I'm going to die, I know. I know it's not safe for you, but I'm just waiting for you to come back. Otherwise, I would have acted earlier, but I was afraid that I wouldn't make it back to you, and I didn't do anything to get rid of them.
It's ridiculous, I thought I was in control, and when I fell ill, I realized that it was all an illusion and how dangerous it was.
You let the guards ring the bell and summon the ministers, I have something to say. ”
The monarch looked at Zhuang Xia again, a little surprised, but the crown prince shook his head, and his joy sank again.
In a short time, the bell rang and the ministers gathered.
The queen and Sangkook trembled, and the worst happened.
"Brother, what should we do?"
"Before the minister enters the palace, force the palace and kill the prince. As soon as the crown prince died, he immediately issued an edict to make the second son the crown prince and then kill him. ”
These two dogs jumped over the wall in a hurry, and they had the audacity to make this risky move.
In the king's bedroom, there were only two people left, Ye Ming listened to the king's lecture on the way to be a king, and Zhuang Xia squatted at the door.
"Dirty and ever-changing politics, but there are countless people who yearn for the power and desire to control everything.
The authority of all beings is wonderful and ridiculous. ”
Zhuang Xia saw hundreds of people coming with swords, and slaughtered towards the dormitory with great momentum.
After a short time, the queen and Xiangguo led the soldiers, facing Chen Guoguojun, who came out tremblingly, and the crown prince who supported him.
He shouted, "Are you going to rebel?"
He was hoarse, but trembling from weakness.
"I don't dare to wait, I just think that the crown prince is not suitable to inherit the throne, and I want the monarch to set up another prince, otherwise, his life will not be guaranteed, and I hope the monarch will think twice. ”
The monarch was angry: "I trusted you at the beginning, so I let you be the prime minister, you are like this, I am really blind, you white-eyed wolf!"
Xiangguo was noncommittal, and was not ashamed of what he did: "It's because you're too stupid, and besides, I won't give you too much time, make a choice!"
"My son, Queen, will you do the same?"
The red-eyed monarch glared at the second prince and his queen.
The second prince didn't dare to speak, and the queen spoke: "I hope that the Chen country is the most important, and there is no opportunity for other countries to take advantage of the civil strife." ”
But this crepe crepe words were so shameless, and the monarch's chest rose and fell, and he almost died.
"Impossible, death impossible, my son, would you like to die with your father today?"
He turned his head and asked Yeming Gongzi, and the other party nodded heavily.
If he can't be the king, he would rather die, not to mention that he didn't inherit the throne, and he will definitely be killed by his younger brother in the future.
"You two stand back, don't get hurt, look at me. ”
Zhuang Xia stood up and faced hundreds of armored soldiers alone.
