Empress Chu

"Eunuch Qi, you are so old." He sighed.

Eunuch Qi laughed: "You kid who broke His Majesty's vase and hid it under your buttocks has also become a rough man."

Speaking of the embarrassing things back then, Zhong Changrong chuckled. Back then, well, let’s not mention it back then, he withdrew his thoughts and looked at the child in front of Chu Zhao: "Then this is——"

He looked surprised and had already guessed it.

Eunuch Qi nodded with a sad expression: "This is the son of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Now, it should be called, the prince's orphan.

"What happened?" Zhong Changrong asked urgently.

……

……

"How things had been?"

Xiao Xun stood up and looked outside.

Tie Ying couldn't wait a long time ago: "Why is there no news? Chu Lan's movements are too slow."

Xiao Xun said: "Maybe you have to think about it carefully, after all, it's the first time in your life that you have been placed with high hopes."

"Your Highness has already told him so clearly." Tie Ying said, pleading again, "Your Highness, let me go."

Xiao Xun looked at the night, no matter how dark the night was, it would pass, but it was already brighter than before.

There was no news from the palace either.

But if the outside is resolved, it doesn't matter if there is no news from the palace.

The emperor had no choice.

"Okay." He nodded, "You go."

Just as Tie Ying was about to leave, Ning Kun stepped in from outside: "Your Highness, there is news from the palace."

News from the palace?If the son was to enter the palace, Tie Ying would never leave, he hurriedly stopped, stood beside Xiao Xun, watching Ning Kun lead a person in.

This person's figure was a bit embarrassed and stained with a lot of blood, obviously it was not easy to get the news from the palace.

"Your Highness." He took out a scroll from his pocket, "This is given to Your Highness by Mrs. Deng Yi."

Deng Yi, Mrs. Deng.

When Xiao Xun and the others noticed this title, they looked a little surprised.

Originally thought that Deng Yi's ability to guard the gate of the inner palace was already very good, but he did not expect that he would become a grand tutor, and this tutor must be a new one.

"This Deng Yi is really powerful." He said, "He actually gained His Majesty's trust."

Ning Kun sighed again: "My lord knows people with his eyes."

Xiao Xun said: "I am not as good as my father."

After getting in touch with him, he knew that Deng Yi was an unusual little guy, but he didn't expect to be able to reach the position of Taifu.

Thinking of his father giving Deng Yi a lot of money one after another, he really had the foresight.

He couldn't help thinking about his father's attitude towards Chu Zhao, and repeatedly hoped that he would marry her. Did he value Chu Ling, or the little girl Chu Zhao?

Could this Chu Zhao be like Deng Yi?

"Your Highness." Ning Kun urged, "Look at what it is."

This scroll is bright yellow, imperial decree.

The visitor said again: "Teacher Deng said that as long as His Highness sends out the imperial decree, he will personally welcome His Highness into the palace."

This is—not a good word.

Xiao Xun frowned slightly, took the scroll and opened it.

It is indeed an imperial decree, and there is a jade seal on it.

But the content—

Just looking at it, Xiao Xun, who has never been very happy or angry, became furious and threw the imperial decree on the ground.

"Damn the villain!"

Chapter 112

The emperor's bedroom was brightly lit, surrounded by guards, and airtight, it seemed that even a moth would never want to fly in.

But when a person came, he didn't say a word, but the copper wall and iron wall opened to him automatically, allowing him to do as he pleased.

Seeing him stepping into the main hall, the eunuchs standing there bowed their heads and saluted: "Teacher."

Deng Yi walked past them to the bed.

The emperor lay on his back with his eyes closed, as if he had fallen asleep.

"Your Majesty." Deng Yi knelt down and said softly, "The prince of Zhongshan requests to enter the palace to protect His Majesty."

The emperor with closed eyes chuckled.

"He caught up with him." He said, and smiled coldly, "It seems that he poured a lot of fuel on the fire tonight."

Deng Yi said: "A long time ago, the minister received money from King Zhongshan, a lot of money."

The emperor opened his eyes and looked at him, with a surprised expression on his face, and then smiled again: "This brother of mine has broken a leg, but he can jump higher and more happily."

Speaking of this, I feel a little disappointed.

"The emperor's grandmother shouldn't have broken his leg back then, but when he broke his leg, his heart grew bigger."

"After all, it's a woman's heart. I don't know that if I really want to destroy a person, I don't want to destroy the limbs, but I want to destroy the heart."

"It's a pity that I was still young at that time. If it was a few years later, I would have countless means to get a good brother."

But there was no chance, the emperor looked into the hall, the lights in the hall were bright, but to him, it was a dim yellow.

"What did he ask you to do?" asked the emperor.

Deng Yi said: "Let me open the palace gate for him."

The emperor looked at the man in front of him. Although he had already entrusted a country with important tasks, he was a stranger to him. He couldn't even remember what Deng Yi looked like.

The reason why he used Deng Yi was because Eunuch Qi had pushed this person in front of him before, and dared to attack the prince's people, so he was an ambitious guy.

In times of crisis, such ambitious people are the most suitable to be taken out.

Was Deng Yi's ambition planned by others?

"How do you do it?" The emperor looked at Deng Yi and asked word by word.

Deng Yi sat on his knees with his back straight, without averting his eyes or hesitating: "Chen, keep the promise and open the door for him."

The emperor smiled, and he didn't seem to think it was such a terrible thing, and said, "Let's open it. Since you have already thought about it, you are not the only one who can use it. If you don't open it, there are others." .”

Deng Yi nodded: "I think the same way. It's already very chaotic outside now. If the king of Zhongshan takes action again, it will not be a good thing for His Majesty. Moreover, Your Majesty has no choice now. The Crown Prince is dead. As for the Third Highness—"

He looked at the emperor.

"Can Your Majesty tolerate letting a brother-killing prince inherit the throne?"

The emperor laughed out loud, and then coughed violently, and he had to cover his mouth with his sleeve.

Deng Yi, are you acting as a lobbyist for King Zhongshan?

The eunuchs standing on both sides are unbelievable, are they forcing the emperor?

"Your Majesty—" the two eunuchs rushed forward with tears in their eyes.

The other two wanted to fight Deng Yi desperately.

Deng Yi was not in a hurry or annoyed, and continued: "However, I have one condition for the son of King Zhongshan."

The emperor covered his mouth with his sleeve, blocked his stuffy cough, and looked at him.

Deng Yi smiled.

"The minister gave an imperial decree to the son of King Zhongshan." He said, "In his name, if King Zhongshan is killed, he can enter the palace gate and always be by His Majesty's side."

The emperor was taken aback for a moment, then laughed out loud, coughing and laughing at the same time.

"Okay, okay." He shouted, "What a Deng Yi, what a grand tutor, he is indeed the one I like."

It doesn't matter whether he took a fancy to Deng Yi first, or whether King Zhongshan pushed him in front of him.

This Deng Yi does not belong to anyone, but to himself.

He looked at Deng Yi with admiration and envy in his eyes.

"You are the kind of person I mentioned. If you can destroy a person, you will destroy his heart."

You Zhongshan King wants your son to be the emperor, well, you should die first, and your son will give you the death.

Your son is stepping on his father's life to sit on the throne, are you happy or unhappy?

The eunuchs bowed their heads and retreated silently and respectfully.

Deng Yi sat upright in a daze, but his expression changed slightly in the next moment, because the emperor took his sleeves away, and the sleeves were stained with blood.

"Your Majesty!" Deng Yi stood up.

The emperor didn't care. He unfolded his sleeves and sat on the dragon bed, letting the blood from the corner of his mouth drip onto his body.

"I'll answer you, I can tolerate a son who kills his brother, but I can't tolerate a son who kills his father." He said, "Your concubine, this bitch, actually poisoned me."

Such delicious dim sum, no wonder the taste is different from the one made by the imperial chef.

Deng Yi stepped forward: "Your Majesty, quickly send the imperial physician—"

The emperor smiled, wiped the corners of his mouth with his hands, and wiped away the blood: "It's useless, I'm going to die, but—"

His expression ranged from despair to sadness, but more from madness and excitement.

"With Grand Tutor Deng here, my good nephew will definitely be a good emperor."

"I'm just dead, and the one who sits on the throne will have a hard life."

"I died in peace."

After he finished speaking, he laughed loudly, coughing while laughing, and more blood spattered.

The eunuchs all around knelt down and sobbed.

Blood was also spattered on Deng Yi's body and face, he didn't go to support the emperor, and knelt down again: "I will definitely live up to your Majesty's high expectations."

……

……

Still angry after throwing the edict on the ground, Xiao Xun raised his foot to kick it, and then picked it up and threw it into the fire.

It was the first time he lost his composure in such a big way, Tie Ying was frightened and didn't know what to do, Ning Kun rushed over and snatched the imperial decree into his arms.

"Your Highness." Ning Kun shouted, "Calm down!"

Xiao Xun stopped his movements and looked at Ning Kun coldly: "Calm down? What do you want me to do calmly? Do you want me to send this thing to my father?"

Ning Kun, who has watched the son grow up, naturally knows how good the relationship between the son and the prince is.

It was also the first time he saw Xiao Xun like this, the young prince was no longer as indifferent as before, his whole face was full of anger, like a mad beast.

"Your Majesty." He said in a trembling voice, kneeling down with a puff, "Now it shouldn't be me, nor you, it should be the prince."

Xiao Xun's eyes were red, and he kicked Ning Kun and cursed: "How dare you say that! How dare you think like that! You can't even think about it!"

Standing aside, Tie Ying was in a state of shock, not knowing whether she should kick Ning Kun with the prince.

This Ning Kun actually wants to persuade the eldest son to send his father to die? !

Ning Kun didn't dodge or dodge, let Xiao Xun kick on his body, struggled to hug Xiao Xun's leg, and shouted: "Your Majesty, think about it, it is the prince's greatest expectation to make you a prince and ascend the throne." !"

Xiao Xun stretched out his finger and pointed outside: "What is there to think about, he has no choice, the crown prince is dead, the third prince is a lunatic, and the eldest grandson of the emperor is also dead, he only has me, he must choose me!"

"But the third prince is not dead yet!" Ning Kun shouted, "Your Majesty is also a lunatic! He is so crazy that he indulges the two sons to fight each other for fun, and he can naturally be crazy enough to let the third prince continue to be the prince, and His Majesty is still here. This time The prince's plan has been exposed, we have no choice, either to survive or to die."

Xiao Xun kicked Ning Kun away: "Father is no longer the weak boy he was back then. He wants to kill us now, it's not that easy."

Ning Kun fell to the ground, did not come to hug Xiao Xun again, and said anxiously: "My lord has been planning for so many years, not to bear the reputation of a traitor! Your son—"
