Suo Diling

On July [-]th of the third year of Xuanhe, I became a deposed emperor.

This is my third year on the throne.Just three years.

That night, the palace change came too quietly and too suddenly, which caught me off guard, and I was dragged off the throne. I was still dreaming, dreaming that in the year when I just came to the throne, I was furious in fresh clothes, riding on the flying snow , Returning to the city triumphantly, full of people in the city lined the road to greet him. When he opened his eyes, his hands and feet were shackled and locked in his bedroom.

The one who usurped the throne is none other than my fourth brother Xiao Lan who has always lived in seclusion and kept out of the world.On weekdays, he ran to the temple more frequently than the palace, but in the end he did not escape into Buddhism, but stepped on the golden throne. As soon as the fairy skin was taken off, he revealed his true form as a jackal, and really sang a wonderful show , First he carried me away step by step, and then put me under house arrest for several days, forcing me to claim the throne of sickness, and justifiably gave up the throne to him.

Of course I'm not sick, but of course he has plenty of ways to make me sick.

He sends people to feed me the elixir that claims to strengthen the body every day, but within half a month, my good body that is good at riding a horse and shooting has become a weak willow, and I even need someone to help me when I walk.

A sick child who needs to be supported when walking is naturally not suitable to sit on the throne.

My "highly respected" imperial brother does not want to bear the infamy of being a kingslayer, so I still have the value of living. I need to live, and live as a deposed emperor after the world's gossip until the day he dies one day.

In December of the third year of Xuanhe, I held a grand ceremony to offer sacrifices to heaven, announcing my Zen seat to Xiao Lan.

On that day, the sky was dark and snow was falling heavily. I dragged a sick body and wore a gorgeous crimson imperial robe. He took off the crown and handed it to Xiao Lan.At that time, I was coughing so badly that I couldn't even stand up. My long hair was hanging down, and I looked very embarrassed. Xiao Lan put on a show, took the crown respectfully, and his thick black eyes were full of smiles.The voice of Xuanbiao officials reciting the edict of the Zen position was loud, and the sound of beating bells and drums was deafening, but I still heard what Xiao Lan said to me.

He said, Xiao Ling, you are better suited to be a canary than to spread your wings as an eagle.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden gust of wind, which made my crimson imperial robe rattle.

I understand why Xiao Lan said this to me.I have been my father's most beloved heir since I was a child, while Xiao Lan has been bullied, so it is dispensable.When I was young and ignorant, I often bullied him. Xiao Lan was nine years older than me, but he never scolded or beat him back.I know that he has been jealous of me for a long time, and this is a long-planned retaliatory plunder.My father broke his wings, and now he will break mine.When I ascended the throne, he asked someone to send a precious canary as a congratulatory gift. At that time, I didn't understand what he meant, but now I finally understand.

And I actually believed that his low-browed, self-absorbed appearance all these years would be real.

I cast my eyes on the raging fire in the altar of the country, and thought of those who were imprisoned and burned to death in the forbidden garden that night, my cronies, my concubines, and the eunuch Liang Sheng who grew up with me. He can be regarded as my closest person, and I dote on him more than any concubine.Their figures struggling before death reappeared in front of my eyes in the raging fire, burning through my eyes and burning into my heart, making my throat smell bloody.

I opened my mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood on Xiao Lan's sleeve.

Then I wiped my mouth and smiled, Xiao Lan, you'd better kill me now, otherwise you will regret it in the future.

Xiao Lan also smiled, and told the guards around him that the Supreme Emperor was seriously ill, and he could not last until the end of the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, so hurry up and help him back to the Meditation Court to rest.When I heard this title, I felt very ironic.I have just reached the weak crown, and I have become the Supreme Emperor at a young age without even having a single heir.The Yousi Court has always been the place where the emperors of the Mian Kingdom spent their summer vacations. Xiao Lan sent me there because he wanted to keep me under house arrest for a long time.

When I was half-supported and dragged off the altar, I saw several of Xiao Lan's heirs.They have become princes and princesses today, and I seem to have seen the bloody storm in the future from their childish faces.

I loathe them, just like I loathe Xiao Lan.

When I looked at them one by one with malice, a childish voice suddenly stopped me.

Did you drop it?the voice asked.

I looked sideways, and saw a boy standing on the stairs behind him, his figure was the thinnest among Xiao Lan's heirs.He wears a small bun on his head, with a black wooden hairpin embedded in his hair. He seems to be only eleven or twelve years old, but his appearance does not look like Xiao Lan at all. He has a high nose and deep eyes, and his eyes are faintly green, which is obviously related to him. My foreign blood reminds me of the snow wolf cub I hunted in the desert when I was 16 years old.

The little wolf cub crouched at my feet, showing his vicious face before he had any claws, and he wanted to avenge his mother with my boot toe in his mouth.

I caught it back, put it on a chain and brought it back to the palace, but I was allowed to play hard and soft, coerce and lure, and I couldn't domesticate it into a well-behaved pet. One night, it bit my hand and escaped. Every time I think about it, I feel angry Yu Huai was like thinking of those fierce and greedy barbarians outside the customs who invaded the border from time to time.When I ascended the throne, I won a battle and regained the Qilin pass that my father had lost, but it was a vicious battle that I will never forget.

This Xiao Lan actually intermarried with those barbarians outside the pass.

Heh, little bastard.

I wanted to laugh, but a tickle in my throat made me cough and cough, blood stained my lips again.

The boy came closer, staring straight at my face with a pair of green wolf eyes, he didn't pay attention to the road under his feet, and suddenly fell in front of me, and was hurriedly supported by an eunuch.He raised his head, raised his arms, and handed me what was in his hand. It was a gold brocade handkerchief that should have been stuffed in my sleeve, exuding the fragrance of poison.

I looked down at him, with a playful feeling in my heart, wiped the corners of my lips contemptuously, and said, "It's a reward for you alone, just put it away."There is fairy water sprinkled on it, and smelling it can strengthen the body.Of course not, the silk handkerchief was stained with my sweat, and I deliberately gave it to Xiao Lan's heir. Although I couldn't poison him to death, I also wanted to pass on the bad luck to him.

But the little wolf cub really put it in his sleeve, as if he took some treasure.

A eunuch next to him reminded in a low voice: "Why don't you thank your uncle soon, His Highness Fifth?"

"Thank you Uncle Emperor." He stammered, his voice had the rough tone of a barbarian, as if he couldn't speak.

The other descendants of Xiao Lan secretly laughed.They obviously hated him.

The little wolf cub frowned and clenched his jaw.

I became curiously interested, as if I saw the little wolf from back then, so I reached out and caressed his little face, but my blood-stained fingers accidentally left a few bloodstains on his face, like a beard, Very funny.

The boy was taken aback for a moment, as if he had been taken care of by me, his eyes lit up.

I waved my sleeves with a half-smile, and ordered the guards to help me down.

Later I learned that the child was the illegitimate child of Xiao Lan and the barbarian dancer he bought. It was a mistake after a night of drunkenness, it was his shame, and it might not even be his own flesh and blood.Xiao Lan originally strangled this child in the mother's womb, but that night there was lightning and thunder, and there was a strange omen from the sky. "For Gu Ke Xing Xing Xing Xing Xing Xing Xing Xing, also the Gu Chen of success or failure, in the number of masters chilling, dedicated to power life and death", Xiao Lan also spared the life of this child, and named him Xiao Du.

The author has something to say: According to Jinjiang's request, I would like to declare that he is a false uncle and nephew. The abolished Emperor Shou is not a descendant of the Xiao family, but the son of a great priest. There is no blood relationship with Xiao Du. This will be clearly stated later.
