Chapter 353: The Spoiled Emperor X The Troublesome Concubine 20

After hearing the news, the ministers who sent people to inquire about the news all learned that the news that Shangguan Yuan had gone mad was true.

Instead, it seems that the emperor's favored concubine was accidentally injured by the emperor and is now lying in bed recuperating from her injuries!

Shangguan Yuan's grandfather, Prime Minister Su Tong, was so worried that he tossed and turned all night and couldn't sleep. He thought his grandson's madness had improved, but it turned out to be just a "last burst of vitality". Now the emperor's madness has become more serious. What should he do? !

When Su Tong was at a loss, Su Zhan was also very worried. The emperor's madness became more and more serious, which seemed to confirm his previous dream. In the dream, the emperor's madness reached the point where he could not distinguish between friend and foe. He drew his sword and killed anyone he saw. The ministers were in panic, and Shangguan Qing took the opportunity to win over the ministers.

Most of the ministers looked at the completely crazy emperor and resolutely joined Shangguan Qing's camp. Shangguan Qing ascended the throne so easily, and their Su family was destroyed.

Su Zhan was restless and wanted to go into the palace to find out what was going on, but he was afraid that this was just the emperor's strategy to lure the snake out of its hole. If he entered the palace, it might ruin the emperor's plan.

Su Zhan could only force himself to be patient and wait for his grandfather to bring back the news.

early morning.

The ministers were worried and frowning as they waited for the arrival of Emperor Shangguan Yuan. In their opinion, today should be an extremely dangerous day. The emperor's madness had become more serious, and perhaps today would be the day they would be killed.

Many ministers came to today's morning court with the determination to die, and some even made arrangements for their funeral arrangements.

"The Emperor has arrived——"

"Your Majesty, long live the emperor—"

"Stand up!" Shangguan Yuan, holding the little squirrel, sat on the throne and gave Wang Zongguan a look. Wang Zongguan understood and shouted loudly: "If you have something to say, please report it. If not, please leave the court!"

The ministers looked at Shangguan Yuan holding the red squirrel and were surprised. Wasn't it said that the emperor's madness was so severe that he would chop anyone he saw? Now that the emperor looked energetic, it didn't seem like that!

Last night, the ministers who were lured into the team by Shangguan Qing began to regret it vaguely. Oh no, they chose sides too early. The news that came out yesterday was probably done intentionally by the emperor in order to eliminate dissidents and find out the mastermind behind the scenes.

Is it too late for them to quit now?

The ministers who did not immediately agree to Shangguan Qing and chose to wait and see breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they did not agree to Prince Xiao Shangguan Qing. The emperor had not had any episodes of madness during this period of time, and it was impossible for his madness to suddenly become so serious.

Now it seems that this was all a plan made by the emperor. The emperor is indeed resourceful!

Prime Minister Su Tong's frown relaxed and he smiled. The news was false and the emperor was not crazy at all.

Shangguan Qing stared at Shangguan Yuan who was sitting on the throne, feeling confused and uncertain. What was going on? Didn't the spy say that the plan had been successful? Then why didn't Shangguan Yuan, who was sitting on the throne, show any sign of anger? He was as calm as a lake, without any waves.

Shangguan Qing's teeth were gnashing, and his palms were rubbed by the fingers that were pinched into his hands, and blood was flowing out. However, the pain in the palms still did not attract Shangguan Qing's attention.

Shangguan Qing knew that he had fallen into a trap. He acted too hastily and rushed to win over the ministers. Shangguan Yuan could not have failed to notice his large-scale actions, and he was exposed.

Shangguan Qing had no idea how much Shangguan Yuan knew. He felt like he was being hung on a frying pan and was in great pain.

The ministers looked at each other in bewilderment. The first bird to stick its head out will be shot at. No one wanted to be the first to do so. If the emperor was in a bad mood, their lives would be in danger.

Prime Minister Su Tong stepped out of the line and said, "I have something to report! Recently, I discovered that someone was privately making weapons and paid a blacksmith tens of thousands of silver coins. The blacksmith committed suicide out of fear of punishment. The clues were cut off at Baihua Tower, and the stolen money is now in the custody of the government."

"Oh! There is such a thing. Someone is so bold as to privately manufacture weapons. Investigate! We must find out who is behind this! Prime Minister, this matter is left to you. I grant you a token. Seeing the token is like seeing me."

"I obey your order." Su Tong accepted the order.

Shangguan Yuan looked at Shangguan Qing nonchalantly, his eyes were deep, like a black vortex, making it unclear and unpredictable.

Shangguan Qing was sweating profusely when he met Shangguan Yuan's gaze, and his heart was beating wildly. What did Shangguan Yuan mean by this? Did he already know that the private manufacture of weapons was related to him?

No, it's impossible. He had clearly ordered his men to clean up the mess. How could they trace him back? Shangguan Yuan must be trying to trick him, making him lose his composure and taking the opportunity to eliminate his power. He couldn't be fooled.

Prime Minister's House.

Su Zhan listened to his grandfather Su Tong's gratifying narration, and a stone in his heart fell to the ground. It was just as he guessed. This was all to expose the mastermind behind the scenes. Fortunately, he did not rashly enter the palace.

So, has cousin Shangguan Yuan's madness improved, or has it become more serious? Su Zhan was a little confused, and was still worried about the dream, afraid that the scene in the dream would become reality.

Su Zhan's thoughts drifted far away.

"Zhan'er, Zhan'er, what are you thinking about?" Su Tong stroked his beard and asked with concern.

"No, nothing, grandpa." Su Zhan shook his head to deny it. He didn't dare tell his family about his dream and could only bury the dream deep in his heart.

"Speaking of which, Zhan'er, you are not young anymore. Do you have someone you like? Grandfather can help you find someone."

Su Zhan's scalp tingled. "Well, Grandfather, I'm still young. No rush, no rush..." Under Su Tong's slightly turbid gaze, Su Zhan's voice became smaller and smaller. He didn't dare to say that he had developed a fear of marriage because of an absurd dream.

He felt that it was fine to be alone, at least he didn't have to worry about the person he was sleeping with stabbing him in the back.

"Tomorrow, I will ask your mother to find a girl for you. If you don't like the girl, you can also look for other like-minded men. Your grandfather is not a pedantic person."

"Okay, grandpa." Su Zhan nodded in response.

Perhaps he could find a good marriage partner through marriage divination and thus get rid of the trouble caused by the dream.

Jingshou Palace.

The Queen Mother looked at the little squirrel with great curiosity and joked, "What? The emperor likes to keep pets? Yes, it's a cute little fellow."

Shangguan Yuan stroked the squirrel's fur and said, "I don't like to keep pets, I only like to keep this little thing."

The Queen Mother shook her head. She didn't understand what her son was thinking. "Why haven't I seen Concubine Xian recently?"

"My beloved concubine was frightened and is now recovering from illness."

The Queen Mother felt guilty and knew that it was her own prince's fault, so she asked Shangguan Yuan to bring some of the best supplements to Song Guo so that he could take good care of his health.
