Sheng Chengxi, as the adopted son of the queen and the nominal prince of Dayu, if there were no rumors from the outside world, it would be understandable for Emperor Renshou to make him the prince, but every step the little prince would take in the future will be extremely difficult.

But now the city is full of rumors, even if the ministers and officials don't say it, they can't help but doubt the legitimacy of the bloodline of the Eighth Highness in private. In this case, Emperor Renshou's edict came out, and the government and the opposition were shocked.

He made it clear that even if he set up an outsider as his heir, it would be impossible to pass on the throne to Sheng Chengli.

But why?

Since the five princes returned from the imperial tomb, it is clear that they have always been treated favorably by the emperor, so what reason is there to give the throne to others instead of giving it to their sons?

In the Qinzheng Palace, the eyes are full of luxury and heaviness, and the vicissitudes of the imperial capital for hundreds of years are focused on one hall, Su Huaijing got up from the floor tiles, and raised his eyes to inadvertently look at the beam above the head of Emperor Renshou.

A few moments later, Lord Zhongcheng withdrew his gaze meaninglessly.

His father and mother died here......

was strangled to death by the palace people, and pretended to hang himself on this beam......

Su Huaijing carried the secret letter in his arms, and retreated respectfully, and the moment the door of the palace closed, the emperor in the room, admired by thousands of people, coughed dullly and violently.

Su Huaijing lowered his long and thick eyelashes, lowered his head and walked out of the palace gate step by step.

The autumn wind blew through the imperial city, like an elegy.

Su Huaijing walked outside the palace wall, bowed his head and counted the way he came, and the scene behind him was illusory into a bubble in a dream.

But he rarely dreams.

-

After the edict of the prince was issued, rumors arose, more than one old minister earnestly asked the emperor to take back his fate, and some people relied on their seniority to break into the palace gate to ask Emperor Renshou and the eighth prince to recognize their relatives with blood, so as to block the world's leisurely mouth.

Sheng Xuyan was furious, on the one hand, because he was also aware of his life experience, on the other hand, because he was incomprehensible, he didn't understand why the people in the world were so ignorant, and when he couldn't get on the stage, he made them all turn against him, and the grass people dared to talk about the orthodoxy of the prince.

Emperor Renshou's mood is difficult to evaluate, and he can only have a moment of peace when Hui Mian enters the palace to give lectures every day.

On this day, Hui Mian left the palace, Sheng Xuyan knelt in the Buddhist hall and chanted the scriptures in a low voice, feeling the peace he had not felt for a long time.

The wooden door behind him closed and opened, and he frowned with displeasure, and said in a deep voice: "Master, has you forgotten your humility? ”

He said that he was the one who had no monarchs and ministers in front of the Buddha, and now he is the one who is unhappy because someone enters the door and does not report it.

Contradictions, hypocrisy, sanctimony...... These words are vividly embodied in Sheng Xuyan.

The visitor laughed low and said, "Father, who are you talking to about humility?" ”

Emperor Renshou was stunned for a moment, suddenly opened his eyes and stood up, staring at the young man who was striding in without blinking, his eyes were full of anger.

If you look closely at that anger, you may still see a faint trace of fear.

Sheng Chengli became interested, he raised his eyebrows, and said casually: "Erchen has seen his father, I wish my father and emperor a healthy body and a long life." ”

This is said lightly and casually, and whoever listens to it will point to Sheng Chengli's nose and scold him for bullying the king.

Emperor Renshou slowed down and slowed down, his chest rose and fell violently,

The Buddha bead threw it to the ground and said angrily: "Rebel! ”

The sandalwood beads rolled down all over the hall, Sheng Chengli glanced at it regretfully, shook his head and whispered, "It's a pity for this material." ”

He still had sincere pity for a string of dead things, but when his gaze returned to Emperor Renshou's face, his eyebrows and eyes slowly turned cold.

He looked very curious, not tense, nor a dagger, he was just very puzzled, and asked slowly, "Why?" ”

"The second brother is the king, the third brother and the fourth brother are in the ground, the sixth brother is guarding the imperial tomb, the seventh brother can't even memorize the four books, and the eighth brother is ......"

He paused for a moment and smiled contemptuously: "Eighth brother is someone else's species. ”

"Erchen is really confused, father." Sheng Chengli asked, "Why don't you make me the prince?" ”

The Buddha hall is very quiet, the majestic Buddha statue looks down compassionately on the high platform, Sheng Chengli is pressing step by step, no one outside the hall rushes in, Sheng Xuyan's chest rises and falls, there is no trace of the warmth and guilt of those who don't know whether it is disguise or how it came from in the past, the father and son look at each other, Sheng Chengli sees in his eyes full of vigilance and resentment.

After a long time, the young man nodded and laughed lightly: "I understand, what did my father dream about." ”

Emperor Renshou's body trembled unconsciously, his pupils shrank, and the side testified to Sheng Chengli's guess.

"What did you dream about?" Sheng Chengli asked: "I dreamed that I killed the third brother, sent someone to poison the second brother on the way to exile, and deliberately designed to cause the fourth brother to suffer from heat stroke; Or did you see that I fed the seventh brother a stupid poison and covered the eighth brother who was only two years old with my own hands? ”

He said it lightly and casually, and there was no such thing at all, any of these words would be enough for him to be beheaded.

Sheng Xuyan's pupils shrank, his facial muscles tightened, and his teeth trembled uncontrollably, but he was not frightened, but completely engulfed by anger, and he was furious.

On the other hand, Sheng Chengli stood in place for a long time, looking at him with a smile: "Father, you have taken my life and sat on the throne for so many years, and your sons have no intention of worrying about you, but now that it's all at this time, what do you think, can you tell me?" ”

"My son is really curious, why is it Seung-seok, and why are you so disgusted with me?"

flourishing

Xu Yan's teeth trembled, and his hands needed to hold the Buddha platform tightly so that he would not fall and sit down.

He is the king of the world, and the father of the person in front of him, but at this moment, the two of them are like two beasts fighting in the jungle for the change of power, there is no ethical norm, only pure beastliness.

After a long time, Sheng Xuyan finally spoke up, with a monstrous hatred in his voice: "You monster! ”

The autumn breeze outside the courtyard suddenly rose, Sheng Chengli opened his eyes and looked at him for a few moments, as if he had finally reacted, lowered his head and smiled happily: "How can I be a monster, I am your son." ”

He took a step, slowly and calmly approaching Emperor Renshou step by step, with an incomprehensible and pleasant expression on his face, but with a little pity: "He wants to save your life, what should I do, I can only give it to him." ”

"Daddy." Sheng Chengli called meekly and dependently: "Just give me a little compensation for stealing my life, harming my mother, and letting me fend for myself in the cold palace for so many years." ”

The autumn wind was howling, Emperor Renshou glared angrily, gritted his teeth and said, "Monster! If it weren't for you......"

"What if it's not me?" Sheng Chengli walked to

In front of him, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Sheng Xuyan's neck: "Father wants to say that if I hadn't been born with that fate, you wouldn't have stolen your uncle's throne?" ”

“……”

"Come on." Sheng Chengli smiled and happily admired Emperor Renshou's face flushed due to poor breathing: "You are a naturally bad seed, a despicable and sinister villain. With or without me or Master, you will plot rebellion and collude with foreign enemies to invade Dayu, so don't pass the blame on to others. ”

"Speaking of which." Sheng Chengli let go of him, and the emperor who was high above instantly lost his strength, and sat down under the Buddha platform, his face pale, "You, the emperor, are not as good as your uncle at all." ”

Sheng Xuyan's qi and blood surged up in an instant, turned his head and vomited a mouthful of blood, persisted for two seconds, and finally fell to the ground, convulsing all over.

Sheng Chengli condescendingly admired for a while before stepping out of the palace door and said urgently: "Father has had a stroke, please ask the imperial doctor!" ”

The eunuch guards hurriedly rushed to the Buddha Hall, Sheng Chengli glanced at the sky, turned around and went to the harem.

His 'eighth brother' is still being raised by his mother.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Dayu, how could he hold his mother and ask for milk when the emperor was seriously ill?

-

Although the eighth prince is the prince, after all, he is young, and the court taboos his relatives in power, so it is impossible for the queen to listen to the government.

So he came and went, and Sheng Chengli took the right to supervise the country.

When Rong Tang heard the news, he frowned slightly, but he heard that a warlock had secretly come to the capital.

He froze for a moment, searching his distant memories for news related to the warlock.

That year, in the Jiangnan Palace, he measured Sheng Chengli's life, and then he was stolen by Concubine Hui and placed on his son.

Rong Tang suddenly remembered that in the last life to the last time, there was a distinguished guest in Sheng Chengli's mansion, and he called the other party "Master".

Rong Tang originally thought that it was the eunuch who taught him to practice martial arts in the imperial tomb, but now that the coincidental things came together, he realized almost instantly that he had guessed the wrong direction.

At the beginning of the story of "The Emperor's Journey", the male protagonist Sheng Chengli was tampered with; And the beginning of the rebellion in the twenty-fifth year of Yuanxing also had the factor that Sheng Xuyan's morale was greatly boosted because of the purple qi coming from the east.

In the dark, Rong Tang felt that he should meet the warlock.

But before he could find someone, another sensational news came out of the turbulent imperial city.

Father and son are connected, and the father's illness may be transferred to the son's body.

Dayu talks about filial piety, and I don't know which imperial doctor proposed that if he used the prince's heart and blood as a medicine, he might be able to make His Majesty recover as soon as possible.

And this medicine is quite particular about the selection of candidates, it has to be the prince who is favored by the emperor and has the highest status, and filial piety touches the sky, so that it can change a little bit of opportunity.

Superstition is extreme, and I don't know who it is passed down from the same lineage as the ignorant mediocrity.

But the queen mother is dead, the emperor has a stroke, and the queen mother can't protect the young prince even if she has a heart.

The little prince was taken by the nurse to the heart palace to take blood, and the small half bowl of blood was released, and the two or three-year-old child's little face turned pale and fainted.

The imperial physician quickly boiled it into the medicine and fed it to the emperor.

Who knew that a bowl of heart-to-heart blood was fed into his abdomen, and Emperor Renshou not only did not wake up, but his condition worsened and he almost died.

The palace was shocked, and the hospital knelt down a group, repeatedly hinting between words that if it was a biological father and son, this situation would not occur at all.

The Fifth Highness who served the sick immediately made a decision, cut his wrists and bled to re-enter the medicine, which was able to save Emperor Renshou from the Ghost Gate.

After this experience, even if there is an edict in the life history of the eighth prince, it has to arouse suspicion.

The mouthy palace maid mentioned intentionally or unintentionally, during the time before Her Royal Highness Concubine Yi Niangniang, King Ning Xuan and the princess seemed to have entered the palace to visit the queen.

Rong Tang listened to the situation in Beijing changing three times a day in the courtyard, and finally heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing.

Going around and around, the boomerang is used here.

He wasn't angry, but he suddenly wanted to ask Su Huaijing, did he expect this scene on the day he formed an alliance with Sheng Chengli?!
