I heard that I had an affair with the sick emperor

Chapter 78 Begging the Prince to Bury the Regent

Shi Yan was originally obedient, but when he heard that Shi Xu wanted to take Lou Yu away, the expression on his face changed instantly. He raised his eyes with firm eyes. "No one can take Mr. Gu away from Gu, not even the uncle of the emperor."

"What if this king insists on taking him away?" Shi Xu's eyes were full of anger, if it wasn't for his upbringing, he wished he could teach Shi Xu a lesson.

"Then the uncle can only walk away on the lonely corpse." Shi Yan did not flinch, now whoever wants to take Lou Yu away from him is his enemy.

The two just stared at each other, neither of them willing to back down.After a while passed like this, Shi Xu took the lead in compromising, and then he looked away and said, "Okay, you're doing very well."

After saying this, he glanced at Lou Yu's body again, then took a few steps back and left Lou Yu's room.

Shi Xu walked out of the gate of the Prince Regent's Mansion without looking back, and then stopped.He gasped heavily, his heart throbbing in pain.

It was a long time before he spit out two words. "Go home."

Returning to Prince Xu's Mansion, before Shi Xu stepped into the mansion, he ordered the guards following behind him: "You go immediately and find the leader of the Imperial Forest Army who is going to the Prince Regent's Mansion tonight, and I must find out. What the hell happened."

The guard obeyed and retreated.

After the guards left, Shi Xu took another step towards his study.

After entering the study room, he went straight to the grand master's chair behind the desk, and threw himself onto the chair with exhaustion. He slowly closed his eyes, and clutched his hair in pain.

How did things become the way they are now?He was still fine when I saw him in the evening, why did he die like that suddenly?

Shi Xu remembered what Lou Yu said before, he said that after Shi Yan ascended the throne, he would be able to retire.When the time comes, he will find a place to retire in peace.

But now, he hasn't done anything yet, how could he just die like this?

He didn't believe it, never believed it.

Since Qin Que's death, the position of commander of the Yulin Army has fallen into the hands of Zhang Heng.

However, he did not expect that the first major thing he did after taking this position was to force Lou Yu to death.

After returning to the palace, he was in a state of anxiety.

Finally, when Shi Xu sent someone to find him, this state broke out completely.

On the way to Prince Xu's mansion, he was in fear.

It is well known that Lou Yu and Shi Xu have a good relationship.Now that when Lou Yu died, Shi Xu summoned him, it would definitely not be a good thing.

Being led into the study by the guards, Zhang Heng's heart was in his throat. He secretly glanced at Shi Xu who was sitting behind the desk with his head bowed, and then stepped forward and knelt down towards him. "My subordinates will see King Xu."

"Tell me what happened tonight. If there is a concealment, I will tell you that you will never see the sun again." Shi Xu's eyes were full of anger that could not be concealed. Looking at it makes people shudder.

Zhang Heng couldn't help shaking, and he quickly opened his mouth to remove all responsibility. "My lord, the death of the regent has nothing to do with the subordinates. The subordinates just obeyed the order of His Royal Highness and went to arrest the regent. Who would have thought that the regent would choose to take poison."

"Did the Crown Prince order you to surround the Regent's Palace?" Shi Xu asked Zhang Heng with his expression unchanged.

Zhang Heng nodded repeatedly, not daring to hide anything. "Master Mu came here with His Highness the Prince's order, and the subordinates dare not disobey it!"

Shi Xu clenched his hands unconsciously.Sure enough, it was Shi Yan who caused Lou Yu to lose his life.If he had known that things would develop to where he is today, he shouldn't have done nothing and let Shi Yan expand his power.

Obviously, he is fully capable of sitting on the supreme throne of Beiyue Kingdom.

It's not that Shi Xu has no ambitions, it's just that before the emperor passed away, the government was controlled by Lou Yu.

He didn't want to get into trouble with Lou Yu, so he chose to give in and be his idle prince with peace of mind.

And now, Lou Yu was dead, and was killed by Shi Yan, how could he allow him to sit on the throne so safely?

He must replace him, pull him out of this position, and make him pay for what he has done.

Making up his mind secretly, Shi Xu asked Zhang Heng again: "Did you see the regent take that poison with your own eyes?"

"Yes, not only the subordinates, but everyone present saw that the regent took the poison." Zhang Heng replied with a nod.

"The king knows, you should step back first." Shi Xu didn't ask any other questions, he waved his hand at Zhang Heng, indicating that he could step back.

But Shi Xu's words were like an amnesty to Zhang Heng, he quickly thanked Shi Xu, and scrambled out the door.

After Zhang Heng left, Shi Xu didn't delay, he raised his eyes and said nothing to the guards who were waiting beside him, you immediately send an order to the city guard, ordering him to strictly check all the people coming in and out, and not allowing anyone suspicious to leave the imperial city. "

"Your subordinate will do it now." The guard called Wufeng said, then turned and left the study.

Shi Xu didn't know why he suddenly gave such an order.It's just that there is an instinct telling him that he must do this, otherwise, he will lose Lou Yu completely.

This night, not only the lights of Prince Regent's Mansion were lit until dawn, but so was Prince Xu's Mansion.

For the whole night, Shi Yan didn't even close his eyes, he stayed by Lou Yu's bed all the time, as if as long as he kept looking at Lou Yu, Lou Yu would come back to life.

Seeing the white belly appearing in the eastern sky, the time for going to court on weekdays is almost here.

Xiao Quanzi, the eunuch who had served Shi Yan for many years, resisted the fear in his heart, opened the door and walked in. He came to Shi Yan's side and whispered to him. "Your Highness, the morning hour is almost here."

Shi Yan did not respond to Xiao Quanzi's words, he still maintained the posture just now, motionless.

Xiao Quanzi was worried that Shi Yan didn't hear clearly, so he repeated what he said just now. "Your Highness, it's time to go up."

This time, Shi Yan finally had some reaction.He raised his tired eyes, and said to Xiao Quanzi, "Little Quanzi, you go and order the kitchen to prepare some dishes that the regent likes to eat, and when he wakes up, he can eat them." "

Xiao Quanzi saw Shi Yan who was almost in a daze, he wanted to tell Shi Yan that Lou Yu was dead and it was impossible to wake up again.But when he thought about the fate of the previous imperial physician, he had to give up his thoughts.

"I'll let you get ready, servant." After saying this, Xiao Quanzi sighed, turned around and left the door.

As little Quanzi left, Shi Yan raised his hand and climbed onto Lou Yu's forehead, stroking Lou Yu's already cold skin with an extremely gentle voice. "Sir, why are you still refusing to wake up? Don't you really want to see Yan'er again?"

As soon as Shi Yan's words were spoken, they dissipated into the air, and what responded to him was absolute silence.

While helping Lou Yu prepare meals, Xiao Quanzi also asked the kitchen to prepare a breakfast for Shi Yan, but he didn't even touch the breakfast when it was delivered to Shi Yan.

The news of Lou Yu's death spread throughout the entire imperial city within half a day.

Many guards came to ask questions, but in the end they were all turned away by Shi Yan.

He guarded Lou Yu for a whole day like this without eating or drinking. During this day, he almost never left her.

In the end, Lian Yingyi couldn't stand it anymore, and stepped into the room without being summoned by Shi Yan.

Shi Yan turned a deaf ear to the sound of footsteps coming from behind.

In the end, Yingyi took the initiative to speak. "His Royal Highness, I have something to say to you, please agree."

He didn't sleep for a day and two nights, and Shi Yan's condition was very poor. His eye sockets were bruised, and his eyes were even bloodshot.

"If you have anything to say, just say it." Shi Yan's voice became very hoarse after a long time without drinking water.

"My lord is dead, even if you don't want to admit it, it's true. It's midsummer now, if you keep lord's body here, it will rot soon. You know, lord always attaches great importance to his appearance, don't you think Do you really want the prince to live uneasy after death?" Ying Yi became angrier as he spoke, for Lou Yu's death, he blamed Zan on Shi Yan.

"So what do you want Gu to do?" Shi Yan asked indifferently.

Ying Yi continued without hesitation, "My lord once said that his greatest wish is to return to his hometown to enjoy his old age peacefully after resigning from office. Therefore, His Royal Highness, please allow me to bring the body of the lord back to his hometown for burial. "

"It's impossible for Gu to let him leave Gu's side." Shi Yan objected without thinking about it.

Ying Yi was even angrier when he heard this, and even his tone of voice was a bit off. "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince refused to cherish Min when the prince was alive, so what's the point of keeping a corpse now?"

"Except for this, Gu can agree to anything." Shi Yan looked back at Lou Yu, and said, "Only this is not acceptable."

Now, all he can leave is this thought. If he can't even leave Lou Yu's body behind, how will he survive in the long years to come?

Seeing that Ying couldn't make sense with Shi Yan, he stopped talking, anyway, he had already said what should be said, as for what to do, it was up to Shi Yan.

Shi Yan stayed in Lou Yu's room like this for three days, and on the fourth day, Shi Yan finally took the initiative to open the door of Lou Yu's room.

As soon as the door opened, Ying Yi Ying Er, Xiao Quan Zi and others who had been waiting outside greeted him.

"His Royal Highness." Xiao Quanzi called out.

Shi Yan didn't go to see a few people, he looked dully at an unknown point in the distance and said: "Have someone prepare firewood, only to cremate the regent's body."

When Ying Yi Ying Er heard this, his face changed slightly.

However, Shi Yan, who was immersed in his own world at the time, didn't notice it.The author has something to say about the feast of the time: the visitor prepares the fire, but he alone wants to cremate the regent.

Lou Yu: Then I really thank you?Roll your eyes!
