Power over the world [rebirth]

The imperial palace at night was so quiet that there was almost no sound. Under the service of the maids, Emperor Chongde took off his layers of clothes, leaving only an inner garment. He lay down slowly on the dragon bed, the bed curtains were lowered, the candles were extinguished, and the inside of the house into darkness.

Emperor Chongde lay on his back, staring directly at the top of the bed, unconsciously thinking of the note that came out of the rabbit meat, the words written on it made him unforgettable.

The death of Chongde and the prosperity of the crown prince were clearly written for him, indicating that he was about to end, but his crown prince, Murong Cheng, wanted to overthrow him and become the new emperor!

Thinking of this, Emperor Chongde closed his eyes, unable to calm down, the busyness during the day made him feel deeply exhausted, and his body was damaged by drugs a few days ago, so he fell asleep after a short time of sleepiness.

However, even in his sleep, his dream was very chaotic. Suddenly, the face of the prince appeared in front of him. He walked towards him, and suddenly tripped over something, and fell to the ground. Then several guards came over Hold him down and not move at all.

"Cheng'er, what are you doing?" Emperor Chongde raised his eyes to look at Murong Cheng in front of him, seeing his complexion gradually turned gloomy, he walked up to him and squatted down, reaching out and lifting his chin.

"Father, don't you understand the matter up to now?" Murong Cheng smiled strangely. He slowly squeezed a bruise on Emperor Chongde's jaw with his fingertips. Seeing him frown in pain, he felt even more emotional Okay, "I have waited for so many years, and finally this moment has come. What do you think I want to do?"

Hearing this, if you don't feel any strange words, Emperor Chongde has lived in vain all these years. He stared into Murong Cheng's eyes, his voice condensed, "Murong Cheng, it was in vain for me to bring you up to this point, but you will repay your kindness with revenge. Do you still have a conscience?"

As soon as the words fell, Murong Cheng raised his head and laughed loudly, with tears streaming from the corners of his eyes. After a while, he stood up and said coldly: "I'm dying, and you're still trying to convert me with true emotions, Father! Father, you are really getting more and more confused." Seeing Emperor Chongde's complexion changed, he continued with a sneer: "Have you forgotten how you got the throne back then? My son is just imitating you. .”

After finishing speaking, Emperor Chongde trembled heavily, he suddenly recalled his past, how did he get the throne?Naturally, he killed his father and his mother, and wiped out all the brothers around him. He was the only one left. Besides him, who else could the throne fall into?

I still remember that he was standing in front of the late emperor's corpse, and beside her lay the corpse of Empress Lin. She still had a breath, but he raised the sword in his hand without hesitation, and stabbed empress Lin's delicate body fiercely. In her body, I saw her body tremble suddenly, and after a roar, she lost her breath.

He still remembers the words of Empress Lin before her death, she said: "Murongde, you are insane, you will die in the end, you will have retribution!" At that time, he didn't believe in retribution, so naturally he ignored her.

Not far away lay the corpses of several of his brothers, either in miserable condition, or killed by a knife. The whole hall was covered with blood, covering all the corners like a river. Emperor Chongde threw down the sword in his hand and loosened it heavily. Take a breath.

Since then, he has no relatives in the world.

After recovering from the memory, Emperor Chongde's eyes widened, filled with horror. Could it be that his son Murong Cheng also wanted to kill everyone?Heh, as Queen Lin said, retribution is coming...

"Father's world, you can leave it to your son." Murong Cheng knelt down again, stretched out his hand to caress Emperor Chongde's face as if intimately, then raised his sword and slashed at his neck.

Emperor Chongde half-kneeled on the ground, watching the prince draw out the sword, and then there was severe pain on his neck, and warm blood spurted out from the wound, dyeing his clothes red, and he gradually fell to the ground, Seeing his own blood covered the carpet, it was as if the blood of the previous emperor and his brothers had stained the entire palace red that day.

Unexpectedly, the retribution came so quickly... But, he still doesn't want to die!Emperor Chongde's eyes widened gradually, and he struggled vigorously. Murong Cheng laughed loudly in his ears, and he felt his body gradually lose strength. Suddenly, he roared with all his strength: "No!"

Waking up from the nightmare, Emperor Chongde sat on the bed, looked left and right, and found that there was neither Murong Cheng nor blood on his body, so he realized that it was a nightmare.

But the dream was so real, as if it had actually happened.Emperor Chongde threw off the quilt suddenly, put on a piece of clothes casually, and rushed to the imperial garden, the night outside was as cold as water, and he sneezed as soon as he went out.

When he arrived at the pavilion, Emperor Chongde sat on a stone chair, panting heavily, he came to this place as if fleeing, the surrounding quietness made him calm down, after staying for a while, he felt a little dizzy, got up and went back to the hall go.

Unexpectedly, after coming out, he was infected with the wind and cold. Emperor Chongde was very old, and he had a morning sleep for a while, and he was bedridden and groggy all day long. He couldn't sleep with his eyes open, but when he closed his eyes, he saw Murong Cheng standing in front of him holding a sword, trying to kill him.

After Prince Murong Cheng knew about it, he ordered someone to prepare good incense, hoping that Emperor Chongde could sleep better at night, but he didn't know that before he got the incense, it had already been transferred.

At the same time, Emperor Chongde finally became a little tired. He closed his eyes and lay down on the bed to rest. I could feel Murong Cheng standing beside his bed, but his eyes were too sleepy to open.

Murong Cheng saw that Emperor Chongde didn't look like he was about to wake up, so he simply asked the palace servants behind him to present the exquisite box, took out a few sticks of incense and lit it, and then retreated.

And Emperor Chongde, who was sleeping on the bed, felt that the person next to the bed had left, so he fell asleep in peace. When he woke up again, he moved his body, but there was no strength in his body. He thought it was because he had slept for too long Because of this, I didn't pay much attention to it.

At this moment, the Fifth Prince Murong Chong came to the sleeping hall, and heard that Emperor Chongde was sick and bedridden, so he specially ordered someone to cook good soup to nourish Emperor Chongde.

When he arrived in the hall, he smelled the incense with a keen sense of smell, and seeing Emperor Chongde lying listlessly on the bed, he suddenly became suspicious.After leaving the dormitory, he sniffed the incense carefully again, and found nothing amiss.

When he got outside, Murong Chong walked forward, and suddenly saw a familiar figure in the garden, wasn't it his fourth brother Murong Yu?He sneered, walked over and said, "Fourth Brother is really in a good mood, Father is sick, and he still wants to enjoy the flowers."

"Brother Wuhuang!" Murong Yu turned around when he heard the sound, quickly lowered his head, twisted his fingers and didn't know what to say, his cowardly appearance made Murong Chong sneer, and walked past him.

After he left, Murong Yu straightened up slowly, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, it seemed to be smiling, but also seemed to be sarcastic, that smile quickly disappeared and ceased to exist.

At the same time, Murong Heng came to Shen Ci's mansion from the palace. Seeing Shen Ci basking in the sun in the courtyard, his mood immediately improved, and he walked in and said, "Young Master Shen is so excited."

Hearing his voice, Shen Ci stood up from the couch. It was early spring, and the warm sun shone on him, making him drowsy. He walked in the direction Murong Heng was walking, and waited for him to walk beside him Then, go back to the house with him.

When he arrived in the house, Murong Heng lowered his voice and told him the news that Emperor Chongde had fallen ill, and added that he had done something in the incense that the crown prince gave Emperor Chongde. After speaking, he stared at the person in front of him. expression.

"Then." After a long silence, Shen Ci said softly, "It's time to expose the truth." The package of incense can deepen Emperor Chongde's suspicion of the prince, making him think that the prince is trying to poison him with the incense.

"This king thinks so too." After a few days, he exposed the truth and made Emperor Chongde suspicious of the prince again, but he didn't believe that Emperor Chongde would tolerate the prince again and again, and one day, he would definitely explode.

Both of them were silent for a while. Murong Heng hadn't seen Shen Ci for a few days since he came back from enjoying the flowers in Qingzhou that day. When he saw him today, he didn't know what else to say besides revenge.

He suddenly thought of the investigation results of the guards' return that day, about the tragedy of the Shen family's extermination more than ten years ago. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ask, "Why did you agree to cooperate with me?" I want to see if Shen Ci will tell him himself.

But no, Shen Ci remained silent and did not answer, he lowered his head and did not speak, but when Murong Heng said the next sentence, he suddenly raised his head.

"It's because of the destruction of the Shen family." Murong Heng pretended not to see his shocked expression, and continued to say, "Because Emperor Chongde killed Prime Minister Shen, and you want to avenge your parents." , that’s why you agreed to cooperate with me, isn’t it?”

"I..." Shen Ci was horrified, surprised at why he knew about this matter, then thought about it, he is a prince, how could there be something he didn't know, yes, he must have investigated him, he really Still don't believe him?

"Don't get me wrong." As if he had guessed what he was thinking, Murong Heng smiled slightly, and said seriously, "I don't doubt you. Since we have cooperated, I will definitely use all my strength to kill Emperor Chongde." This king will definitely ask him to pay back this mortal enmity." Murong Heng gritted his teeth, and kept thinking of his mother's unwilling appearance when he died, and his heart became more and more uncomfortable. Hold his shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, this king will definitely restore Prime Minister Shen's innocence!"

He opened his mouth but couldn't say anything. After a long time, Shen Ci closed his eyes. Murong Heng's palm was very warm. Even through the clothes, he could feel the warm body temperature. He moved his lips and his voice choked, "Thank you." Prince." Apart from a word of thanks, he didn't know what else to say.

"It doesn't have to be like this." Murong Heng tightened his palms and felt his body trembling slightly. He couldn't help but take a step forward and get closer to the person in front of him. After thinking for a while, he continued: "Mr. Shen should be younger than this king. Bar?"

Shen Ci tilted his head when he heard the words, and whispered his year: "Three years of Chongde."

"Sure enough." Murong Heng smiled when he heard the words. Now it is 25 years of Chongde, so that means that Shen Ci just turned 22 this year, three years younger than him, "Since you are younger than this king, then this king will treat you as a younger brother. How about calling you A Ci? You don’t have to be polite, it’s fine to call you Murong or Big Brother.”

Shen Ci moved his mouth, but he couldn't call out such an intimate address as Murong, so he could only whisper: "Brother."

"Hey." Murong Heng smiled, took another step forward to hug Shen Ci, and patted him on the back. For some reason, he was extremely happy when he heard the "big brother".

As for Shen Ci in his arms, his body was petrified and he didn't dare to move.
