Chapter 328: Settle the Score
The fragments of the cup spilled on the ground, the third prince slowly knelt down, and the entire hall suddenly fell silent. All the singing and dancing were withdrawn, and all the feasting and drinking were stopped.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the third prince Ye Gu Yuanli, it was so noisy just now, and few people knew what was happening in front of them.
"It's a big holiday, are you joking with your father?" The emperor's face was pale, and all the facial features on his face were drawn.
"Erchen is deliberate, Erchen has made up his mind, and he will never joke." The third prince's face was full of seriousness, he didn't know what to make such a big determination, and he didn't know what made Long Yan angry.
The emperor shook a large piece of white paper in his hand, and suddenly slapped the paper on the table, and the cups on the table jumped.
"Not allowed!" The emperor roared, and the ministers were so frightened that they left the table, and they all fell to the ground, shouting: "Your Majesty is angry! ”
All the concubines also knelt down one after another: "The emperor takes care of the dragon body!" ”
The emperor turned his head to the side of the people below, and it could be seen that the emperor was very angry.
Ye Gu Yuanhong quietly asked the seventh prince what happened, and other people's mouths were strict, so the seventh couldn't hold back the truth. Sure enough, Lao Qi told Ye Gu Yuanhong without hesitation: "The third brother wants to withdraw from his family, and he also said that he will not marry a wife or take a concubine for the rest of his life." ”
In addition to the fifth prince, their family affairs have been decided, and the third prince will be married this summer, and this autumn and winter will be the sixth prince, and the seventh and ninth will have to wait for two years.
The third child's family affairs are already in preparation, he suddenly proposed to withdraw from his family, and he even swore that he would not be married, not only did he not marry, but he also did not accept concubines.
Ye Gu Yuanhong's heart sank, he knew the third child's thoughts, but he didn't expect him to be so affectionate. How good it would be if the person he loved was not Su Ruoshui, no matter which concubine it was, Ye Gu Yuanhong was willing to give it to him.
Ye Gu Yuanhong was groaning, and the sixth prince Ye Gu Yuanming stood up and walked to the third prince and knelt down: "The son has a book." Ye Gu Yuanming took out a fold from his arms, and looked at the emperor in embarrassment, the emperor had no expression, so he carefully took the fold and gave it to the emperor.
The Emperor opened the recital and read it quickly, and then 'Smack! He slammed it on the head of the six princes. 'Boom! The Emperor lifted his leg and kicked the table over, and the two princes suddenly looked as if they had just been fished out of the trash can.
Ye Gu Yuanhong walked over and picked up the fold and read it. The gist is that he wants to quit his family, and in this life he only takes concubines and does not marry a wife.
Ye Gu Yuanhong knelt down beside the six princes regardless of the dirt, since he let his father be angry, then give birth to all of them, and save them one by one.
"Father, son-in-law also has something to say. Erchen has long made up his mind to marry only one person in this life and never take a concubine. Looking at the ambition of the father and the emperor, the sons only want to be a couple with Ruoshui for the rest of their lives. Ye Gu Yuanhong was serious, he really thought about telling his father about it.
It's just that he said it a little late, he didn't expect the third and sixth children to be more positive than him. Ye Gu's family seems to be not lacking in mental illness, a psychotic family.
"Fart!" The emperor had nothing to kick and scolded, so he pointed at their brothers and scolded them. "You can't even speak? Do you never, no, accept, concubine? Can you be a prince for the rest of your life? ”
"I can not be the prince!" Ye Guyuanhong raised his head arrogantly, come on, take advantage of your anger to withdraw my crown prince title, I am not rare.
The Emperor's fingers pointing at him suddenly became cold, as if he didn't know what to threaten him with all of a sudden. He doesn't even want to be the prince anymore, doesn't he know what the prince's next step is?
He made a choice.
"Bastard! Is the prince what you want to be, and not if you don't want to be? "The emperor held this imperial banquet to dilute the sadness in his heart with a festive atmosphere.
Su Ruoshui had a second miscarriage, and the emperor was extremely sad in his heart, the first grandson was lost, and the second grandson died in infancy. The first time was calculated by Miao Shiying, and the second time was Xiao Jinghe's mistake.
"The father was angry, and the sons thought that the position of the prince should be a virtuous rather than a successor. The talents and virtues of the sons and daughters are not as good as the emperor's brothers, and the position of the prince will be handed over to them to be able to rejuvenate the country, secure the society, consolidate the country and the mountains, and establish peace. ”
The emperor sneered when he heard this: "Then who are you going to tell me about it?" ”
Ye Gu Yuanhong didn't think about this problem, who do you like to hand it over. He glanced at the Sixth Prince closest to His Royal Highness, and Ye Gu Yuanming shook his head: "Brother Huang, I swear not to marry, is it appropriate?" ”
He looked at the third prince again, and Ye Gu Yuanli also shook his head, this is a concubine who doesn't even accept it, and it's even more inappropriate. Ye Gu Yuanhong looked at the fifth child, and the fifth person shrugged. He can't even read a word, can he?
"Erchen thinks that the seventh brother is the most suitable." Ye Gu Yuanhong didn't have the idea of giving up the position of the crown prince to Lao Jiu, everyone was unwilling, so he gave it to Lao Qi.
"I won't do it!" The seventh prince Ye Guyuan Qi jumped out as soon as he was tall: "I am the stupidest brother, I don't want to be the prince, I just want brothers, friends and brothers, everyone can have fun together happily for a few years, and when I grow up, I will be scattered and separated, no matter where I am assigned, I will never come back." ”
The position of the crown prince was heartbroken, and this thought was completely shattered from the moment he entered the prison. Although he only went to the prison for a passing moment that time, he really saw the cruelty of the power struggle.
If you don't fight, you won't be hurt, fighting is your life and death, obviously they are all good brothers connected by hand and brother, obviously they are all brothers by blood, life is just a few spring and autumn, why fight to break the blood?
"If you have anything, tell me that I will not allow this kind of bastard seal and fold. It is natural to marry a wife and have children, but is human ethics also frivolous? ”
"Father, the words of the sons and daughters have been exported and will never be taken back." Ye Gu Yuanli's fair-skinned handsome face is not much better than that of a woman, but the perseverance of his gaze is chilling.
"Why? What are you fussing about? ”
"Erchen is not making trouble, Erchen was ordered by his father to comfort the imperial sister-in-law that day, and saw that the imperial sister-in-law was covered with bruises. The face is swollen and a finger and a half high, and the skin is swollen and transparent. The corners of the mouth are cracked, it is difficult to eat, the whiplash wound on the back is a foot long, and there is no skin on the knees of the most pitiful legs, and there is a bright layer of oil. ”
Ye Gu Yuanli couldn't help but shed tears as he spoke, and the sixth child quietly pinched him, no matter how distressed he was, he had to endure it. The third child couldn't help it, and he didn't want to endure it anymore, he didn't plan to end it well today, he must announce the damage caused by the queen to the imperial sister-in-law.
That day, he advised everyone to endure this tone, not counting this account, that is, to leave this opportunity to himself, and he wanted to personally collect this account for the imperial sister-in-law.
