Chapter 439: The Emperor
The Imperial City was heavily guarded, especially in recent days, when the Emperor was bedridden, and the number of soldiers around the Emperor's palace had tripled.
The princes are also deliberately trying to win over the power, but at this moment, except for the first ten princes, the sixty-eight people behind basically have little power to speak of, and the throne can basically only be born among those ten people.
And the only one who can stay in front of the bed before the emperor dies is the eldest prince Chu Yun, which also tells the other princes in disguise that if there is no accident in the emperor's throne, it is his Chu Yun's, and now he is most worried about the only thing left is the mutiny, in addition to him, there are 3 princes with many clusters, each of them has a huge force, if the other party decides to mutiny, it will definitely be an unprecedented catastrophe!
"Father, it's time to take medicine."
Chu Yun put on a filial look, came to the window and picked up the bowl, and fed the emperor with blank eyes.
"Your Majesty, the thirty-eighth prince asks to see you."
The chief eunuch knocked lightly on the door and walked in.
He ...... What's the matter......"
"It is said that I have found a treasure in the world and want to present it to Your Majesty."
"Hmph, an afterthought...... I'm dying...... What else does the world want, no matter what throne he gives, it has nothing to do with him. ”
The Emperor stopped, "Let him go back, I haven't seen anyone these days." ”
"Father, the sons are a little interested in the treasure in the hands of the thirty-eighth brother, and the thirty-eighth brother, as the son of the father, should also come to fulfill his filial piety."
"Oh?"
The emperor looked at the eldest prince with some surprise, at this juncture, he should be most afraid of other princes coming in, why is it so atmospheric.
"Okay, then let him in, as soon as the emperor said that I also have some interest in the treasure he said......"
There are too many emperor's sons, he can't even remember the names of most of his sons, only the top few princes have a deep image, his biggest regret is that he has no daughters in his life, he gave birth to 68 sons, not a single daughter, many princes' children are also sons, he seems to have fallen under a spell, he and his descendants will always only have the curse of their sons!
The thirty-eighth prince walked in with a box in both hands and a fascinated face, the moment he saw the emperor, he couldn't suppress the joy in his heart, after getting the scroll, he observed day and night, and saw the opportunity to become the emperor from the omnipotent scroll.
"The Emperor...... Why are you so emaciated. ”
The thirty-eight princes in front of the emperor had thin cheeks and dark circles under his eyes, and the whole person looked decadent and weak, more like a dead man than him, who was about to die.
Don't...... He's for my business......
The emperor couldn't help but be a little moved, but he really couldn't remember the name of the thirty-eighth prince.
"Father, I recently obtained a volume of famous paintings, which is beyond imagination! As long as you watch it, you will be able to live a new life! ”
The thirty-eight princes spat excitedly, and there was no royal elegance at all.
"Brother Thirty-Eight, are you crazy, it's just a painting, and it's not a panacea...... I understand that you want to save your father, and I do the same, but you can't blatantly bully the king!! ”
The emperor also felt that it was ridiculous to rely on a painting to cure a disease, and his face suddenly became a little ugly, in his opinion, this son was afraid that he really had mental problems.
"Father, this painting is not effective, you only need to look at it to know!"
The thirty-eighth prince swore solemnly, his expression looked a little crazy, so that the guards on the side nervously grasped the hilt of the knife.
"Alright, then bring me the painting, and I'll see what the magic is about it."
The eunuch beside him immediately lowered his head to fetch it when he heard this, and when he got the box with his hand, he obviously felt that the prince was struggling.
"Your Majesty, this is it."
The eunuch opened the box and revealed a picture scroll inside, and the emperor sniffed it lightly and didn't feel refreshed, just a very ordinary book smell.
The emperor opened the scroll disappointed.
"This painting ......"
The eldest prince leaned over to take a look, and the corners of his mouth immediately couldn't help but curl slightly, "Thirty-eighth brother, I think you're really crazy!" I dare to show this kind of thing to my father! I'm not afraid of dirtying my father's eyes!! ”
"Wait."
The emperor suddenly spoke, "This painting...... It's extraordinary. ”
"Huh?"
The eldest prince's expression suddenly froze.
"Extraordinary...... It's extraordinary...... Absolute baby. ”
"This ......"
The eldest prince Chu Yun looked at the graffiti again, this time he felt suddenly different, it was obviously just a graffiti, but at this moment, he felt like a world, a universe, an omniscient and all-powerful god!
The emperor suddenly put the painting away, and looked at the two of them vigilantly, "You all give it to me!" ”
"Father's ......"
The eldest prince wanted to say something more, but seeing the emperor's murderous eyes, he finally lowered his head and retreated.
Until the evening of the second day, the emperor did not let anyone in.
"The emperor won't die."
The eunuchs whispered that the emperor had not eaten for a day and a night, and that he was already seriously ill, so he might have died inside at this moment.
As the rumors intensified, the ministers and princes couldn't sit still, and the most anxious among them was the eldest prince Chu Yun, who came to the door early in the morning and hesitated.
Squeak –
At that moment, the door opened from the inside.
A figure stepped out of the room.
"Father...... How can it be? ”
The eldest prince's mouth was wide open, and the person in front of him was his father, the emperor of the Great Chu State, and he was obviously dying the day before yesterday! But now the whole person looks full of energy and red light, how can he look like a dying person!
"Emperor, I feel that I am twenty years younger, you should wait for this throne."
The emperor didn't look at his reaction, and strode out of the main hall.
"How is that possible?! Live again?! Could it be that the scroll really has such a great magic?! It's impossible! ”
As the emperor's first son, Chu Yun, the eldest prince, is really not young in his early forties, if he waits for another twenty years, maybe he will die by himself, the emperor is not dead!!
That's right! I can say he's demon-possessed! After all, everyone saw the previous death, and it was impossible to explain how to suddenly become so vigorous......
But the impact of the rebellion was too great for the consequences to be predictable......
Chu Yun sat on the floor and looked out the window.
It really doesn't make sense to be told by the imperial physician that the emperor, whose days are numbered, have been cured, and that he can't look seriously ill at all...... The other brothers will think the same way.
The news of the emperor's recovery soon spread throughout the palace, and for a while rumors spread everywhere, and the people in the palace were panicked, but the emperor didn't care about it, which contributed to the spread of rumors.
