The rebirth of the son-in-law

Before the news of Chu He's assassination reached the palace, the emperor who had been in power for 19 years died suddenly in Xuanshi Hall.The palace was in chaos.

Full of wind and rain.

The death of the Son of Heaven came suddenly, and it was taken for granted.At the beginning of the sixth year of Zhengping, the emperor coughed up blood and fell into a coma several times. Although he recuperated a lot later, he still had no complexion.Finally, at the beginning of November of the sixth year of Zhengping, he passed away.

The timing was too coincidental, just after the King of Changsha pacified Yangzhou and delivered the good news, the emperor died suddenly on the spot in Xuanshi Hall.

Xuanshidian is in a mess, and under all the calm there is an undercurrent.

The general Liang Fu immediately led people into the harem, and invited the queen and the prince You out. The queen announced the decree in the hall, and the general held the jade seal and made the prince You the new emperor.

"Wait a minute!"

Chu Shu was originally standing at the head of the imperial court, but now he saw Liang Fu and the queen directly passing him, setting up Prince You, he could no longer be silent, stepped out of the court, stood on the hall and confronted Liang Fu coldly.

"Chu Shu, what are you going to do?!" Liang Fu held the jade seal in his hand, his face suddenly changed, and he glared at the prince of the country of unknown origin.

"The prince is lonely, this throne should be lonely!" Chu Shu looked straight at Liang Fu without changing his face, "You have nothing to do with your father's death, and you have nothing to rectify your name. Do you dare to stand up for Chu You and want to be a traitor? !"

Liang Fu's complexion changed, and he shouted angrily: "Left and right! Chu Shu's identity is unknown, His Majesty was deceived by traitors, and he didn't know the truth. Quickly take down this person pretending to be the prince!"

The Nangong guard rushed in.

The Habayashi Army also rushed in.

The ministers retreated one after another, or were trembling, or panicked, or stood beside Chu You, or were hostile to the general.

For a time, all the officials in the palace were clearly separated, and colleagues became enemies.

Liang Fu pointed at Chu Shu and shouted: "Take it!"

The Habayashi Army and the Nangong Guards were motionless.

Chu Shu took a step back, with a sneer on his lips, and shouted loudly: "Habayashi Army! Kill him alone!"

The Habayashi Army, which was originally under the command of the General, turned their swords against Liang Fu's men.The sharp blade was raised, and then fell heavily, and the officials in the hall who supported the general were caught off guard by the sword.

Soon, the situation changed, and the general's men fell one by one, while the Nangong guards quickly dragged the dead out.

Song Xu, who shouldn't be here, stepped in majesticly, but Liang Fu didn't care about being surprised, and while resisting the rebellious Habayashi army in a panic, he asked the queen to take the prince You back to the harem.

Seeing that Liang Fu ran away with the Queen and Prince You, Chu Shu's eyes flashed with ruthlessness, and he turned to Song Xu and said, "You stay and clean up these rebels, and I will take care of the housework."

With a smile on his lips, Song Xu stood on a pool of blood, cupped his hands and said, "I will wait for His Majesty to return."

Chu Shu nodded, without even looking at those civil and military officials who were lying on the ground and howling, they were not even half refined, leading the Habayashi army into the harem.

Following all the way to the Jiaofang Hall where the queen was, Liang Fu could not retreat, Chu Shu waved his hand, and the elite Habayashi army quickly surrounded the three of them. people.

"You...you really intend to plot rebellion!" Liang Fu protected the Queen and the pale-faced Prince You in her arms behind him.

"Is it you who are the opposite?" Chu Shu showed a ferocious smile, and said coldly, "Dare to covet Gu's position, Liang Fu, do you think you can succeed? You might as well tell you, Gu already knew that you would not admit defeat, you Do you think that if you master the Habayashi Army, you will be able to go against the sky? Oh, watching you perform hard, I really feel sorry for you, you don’t know when you are about to die.”

"Chu Shu!" Liang Fu was shocked and angry, and cursed, "You are not the eldest son of the emperor at all! You are pretending to be the prince, and you are the traitor!"

Chu Shu's face turned cold, he took a knife from the attendant, approached Liang Fu step by step, narrowed his eyes, and said with a sneer, "Looking for death!"

The cold light of the knife flashed into Liang Fu's eyes, and he took a step back in fear.Chu Shu slashed at Liang Fu with a knife, Liang Fu dodged and kicked Chu Shu.Chu Shu was not as fast as him, and barely avoided it, but Liang Fu took the opportunity to lower himself and punch hard.

Chu Shu was pushed back two steps, his chest felt tight, and his expression changed instantly.

"Haha, yellow-mouthed kid! You want to be emperor too..."

"Come here! Kill them!" Chu Shu gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence.

"How dare you!" the queen screamed, "I am the queen! My son is the prince!"

The Habayashi Army hesitated.

Chu Shu's face was gloomy, and he ordered without hesitation: "Shoot the arrow!"

Shhhhhh.

Thousands of arrows fired.

In an instant, as if there was a rain of arrows, the general Liang Fu, the queen, and the prince You were shot into hedgehogs.

In silence, everything is over.

Chu Shu breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed his painful chest, and couldn't help but let out a muffled laugh.The laughter grew louder and louder, until finally, he threw his head back into the sky and laughed heartily, and put the knife back into its sheath.

After Chu Shu returned to the main hall, Song Xu, who had been prepared for a long time, held the jade seal in his hand on the spot, led all the officials to kneel on the cleaned Xuanshi hall, and shouted: "See Your Majesty!"

"See Your Majesty!"

"See Your Majesty!"

Dressed in a crown suit and holding a jade seal in his hand, Chu Shuo knelt and sat on the Xuanshi Hall, accepting the pilgrimage of the surviving officials.

It took only half an hour for this to happen, and the people outside didn't know that the Chen Dynasty had changed.

After Chu He returned from the underground palace, he received treatment from the imperial physician.Fortunately, the treatment was timely, but the blood loss was too much, as long as the vitality was restored, there were no major sequelae.

The two assassins who were caught didn't speak at first, but Dou Tu personally tortured them, the assassins couldn't survive, and confessed the mastermind of Jingzhou governor.

Without Chu He's order, Dou Tu sent a letter to Yu Du first, so that Yu Du could directly attack Jiangling and Xiangyang without withdrawing his troops, and arrest all those who refused to surrender in Jingzhou.Those who resisted were all arrested and tortured by Dou Tu.

When the news in the palace was obtained by Princess Xianning, the governor of Jingzhou also confessed the name Song Xu.

"Your Majesty passed away. The prince killed the queen and prince You. In order to get revenge, the general Shi led the army and Fan Hou and other five permanent servants to attack the palace. He surrounded the prince in Wende Hall and repaired him as emperor. He stole the jade seal." Dou Tu put the letter paper on the candle, and the flames immediately swept the letter paper and swallowed the pen and ink.

Sitting on the teacher's chair with his eyes closed, Chu He opened his eyes and said calmly, "Zirang chose Prince Xiu?"

"It was Prince Xiu who recruited Li Bi."

"There are no two masters in a country, and there is only one emperor." Chu He said silently, "Because of the flames of war in the north, the rise of rebels in the south, the chaos of the princes and princes in the West, and the cessation of war in the East China Sea, and now China and North Korea are in chaos, and there is no peace in this world. Could it be that I, Chen Chao, have run out of energy?"

Her hesitation is unknown.

Song Zhi came in from the door quickly, seeing that Dou Tu and Chu He's expressions were not very good-looking, he paused, and his expression was a little hesitant.

Chu He looked back at her, relaxed his expression slightly, smiled slightly, and said lightly: "What's wrong?"

Song Zhi sat beside Chu He, bit his lip, and said cautiously, "Don't get angry."

Chu He was taken aback for a moment, vaguely guessing something, and then smiled: "Chu Lang raised his troops, right?"

Song Zhi asked in surprise, "How do you know?"

Chu He remained silent, and the smile on his lips gradually disappeared.

Song Zhi thought for a while, then said in surprise: "Could it be, you already knew about his rebellion?"

Chu He didn't speak, but Dou Tu understood, so he explained for Song Zhi: "Two days ago, the princess sent a letter to the King of Changsha, asking the King of Changsha to wait for the opportunity."

"Why?" Song Zhi was a little confused, she didn't understand that Chu He was clearly on guard against Chu Lang, and the current situation was so chaotic, Chu He actually gave Chu Lang an excuse to send troops.

Waiting for an opportunity means that Chu He tacitly agrees that Chu Lang can send troops.

Dou Tu was a little embarrassed, coughed and said, "The princess didn't expect that Chu You and the Queen would kill Chu You and the Queen. After all, they also have brotherhood, but Chu Shu didn't care about family affection at all. Today Chu Shu can kill Chu You and the Queen." Kill the queen and prince You, and Chu Shu will be able to attack the princess tomorrow."

Although there was this reason, it was definitely not an important reason for Chu He to change his mind.Song Zhi suddenly remembered that in the underground palace before, Chu He said that he would take her to find the way home——

Song Zhi woke up suddenly.Could it be that Chu He is really determined to go back with her?

Regardless of this problem, Chen Chao is a mess now, and the flames of war have been ignited. Even if Chu He and Chu Lang fight the fire, it will not help.What's more, judging from the last time, Chu He and Chu Lang sent troops together to pacify the two states of Jingyang, and Chu He adopted the default Chu Lang's occupation of land.Because of Chu Lang's contribution, the imperial court could not give it to him, and it was impossible to satisfy the small imperial court in Changsha.

I heard that a few days ago someone in Xishu publicly proclaimed the king, and there was a problem with the power transfer of the court. I couldn't figure it out and couldn't free up my hands to clean up the rebels in Xishu. This matter can only be handed over to capable people.

Looking at the entire Chen Dynasty, only Changsha King has strong soldiers and horses, and has experience and skills.With the prestige of a great victory, defeating the rebels in Western Shu is the right thing for Chu Lang and the King of Changsha.

Facing the situation where brothers fought against each other and killed each other, Chu He agreed to send troops to Chu Lang, probably because he had the intention of preferring to be with his friends rather than with his family slaves.No matter who the emperor is, as long as the surname is Chu, this is an internal struggle and a family matter, and if the rebels from Xishu and Beidi cannibalize the world, then the Chen Dynasty will not be ruled by the Chu family, but may be the Huang family, the Zhao family, and so on. It might be the Liu family, the Tang family.

There is no orthodoxy in the imperial court, and the command ordered officials and soldiers across the country to fight against the rebels. As a result, all parts of the country are now fighting on their own, and no one trusts anyone.In the midst of a major crisis, still fighting will only benefit those who rebel.

Although Chu He kept silent, the decision she made must have been weighed.When she tacitly agrees to Chu Lang's sending troops, it means that the south will declare war on the north, and no matter whether it is Prince Xiu or Prince Shu, they will all become her enemies.

Why Chu He would rather choose a distant nephew than his own younger brother... I think it's because he really doesn't like these two younger brothers.

But, will Chu Lang really do what Chu He said?Having been with Chu Lang for so long, Song Zhi was not sure that Chu Lang would not change his mind just because he sat in the highest position.
