The bad things he has done are not clear, but what Yuchen promised to Nie Kaize is obvious.
"Did he promise you that when he ascends the throne and becomes the emperor, he will let you take over your father's position as the commander-in-chief of the forbidden army?" Shen Haiyao asked.
This benefit was so obvious that Nie Kaize couldn't deny it even if he wanted to.
"Don't talk, right? That's fine, then just listen to me and see if I'm right." Shen Haiyao pointed his fingers and counted down who Nie Kaize had secretly eliminated for Yuchen over the years. It was recorded in Yuchen's secret cell, but some of them recorded in detail who did it and what the final outcome was, while others were very simple.
Shen Haiyao casually said a few things that were simply recorded, and sure enough, Nie Kaize looked flustered.
This person is not a person with a brain, Shen Haiyao only used two or three sentences to deceive him.I wanted to take this opportunity to ask how Yuchen originally planned to get rid of Commander Nie—Commander Nie was in his prime and in good health. The position of leadership will never fall into the hands of others, even if this "other" is his son.In order to make Nie Kaize completely devoted to him, Yuchen must get rid of Nie Hai.
Shen Haiyao shook his head regretfully, and his tone was a bit resentful, "I said, you are really stupid. Yes, you worked hard for Yuchen, and he promised you the official title you wanted, but didn't you Have you ever thought about how he will give you this official? The position of commander of the imperial army has never been hereditary. Nie Hai will not die, and no one can take this position away. He wants to push you to this position, or knock Nie Hai down , or - let him die!"
Shen Haiyao leaned back, his body was in an extremely relaxed posture, he watched Nie Kaize finally figure out Yuchen's intention bit by bit, with fear, panic and guilt intertwined on his face.
Shen Haiyao raised his chin at him and said, "It seems that you don't want your father to die, since that's the case—"
He stood up and looked condescendingly at the man on the verge of collapse, "Come on, let's go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice? What else did Yuchen do that we don't know, and you will explain it for him."
Outsiders were not allowed to visit the prison where Yuchen was held, but such a request could always be made an exception for the Emperor's beloved Eighth Prince.
A few days later, Yuhong sent someone to ask the younger son of the Yin family to visit Yuchen with him and interrogate Nie Kaize along the way.
It was an interrogation, but it was nothing more than taking out and counting the things Yu Chen had done one by one. What Nie Kaize revealed was nothing compared to the murder of the prince and the embezzlement of stolen money.
The only thing that deserves a little attention is the matter of Xuantian Taoism.
It turned out that in the previous life, colluding with the Xuantian Taoist Temple and spreading rumors that Yujie had the appearance of an emperor had been planned a few years ago.
Yu Hong said coldly: "In recent years, there have indeed been some sayings on the border, saying that 'King Huai is their savior' and boasting that there is nothing in the sky and the earth. According to this, it is because you let Xuan Is it the ghost of the Taoist Temple?"
Ever since Yu Chen was imprisoned in the sky prison, he had been unwilling to cooperate with him. He either didn't say a word, or he shouted for injustice.
Today Yuhong brought Ah Jin over to watch his jokes, which made him calm as if he was dead.
He was sitting in a corner, still wearing the prince's noble court clothes, but because he hadn't changed it for a long time, he looked extremely dirty.He didn't care about these things at all, he just smiled at his former lover and asked, "A Jin, looking at me like this now, are you happy?"
Shen Haiyao: "There's nothing to be happy or unhappy about, I just think you deserve it."
He glanced back at Yuhong, and signaled him to avoid with his eyes, "I have a few words that I want to say to Yuchen alone."
Yuhong seemed to have misunderstood it, and said with some embarrassment: "A Jin—"
He took two steps forward, approaching Shen Haiyao, and said in a low voice, "It was agreed before, and I will deal with Yuchen."
"..." Shen Haiyao originally thought that Yuhong was worried that he would soften his heart. After all, in the eyes of others, Yin Xiujin and Yuchen really had a close friendship. Unexpectedly, he actually thought that he was going to kill Yuchen.
Shen Haiyao also replied in a low voice: "Don't worry, I've agreed that he will be handled by you, and I won't break my promise."
"Okay." Yuhong nodded and went out.
When there were only the two of them left in the dungeon, Shen Haiyao found a clean place on the ground to sit. He put his hands on his knees and looked at Yu Chen quietly.
Neither of them spoke.Shen Haiyao was thinking about how to tell Yu Chen the last truth, how to let him know that what he had done these years was meaningless; Yu Chen was thinking that the person in front of him had once given him the only love in his life. Light, but now...
Shen Haiyao said lightly: "Do you hate me very much?"
Yuchen paused, and said honestly: "To be honest, a little bit. I really love you, Ajin."
Shen Haiyao said: "Love is not a prop used to hurt others. You say you love me—let's take it as true—but dare you say that you are with me only for love? "
"It's really meaningless to hide these things now." Yuchen smiled self-deprecatingly, "You're right, I'm with you not just for love. The two of us have such a relationship, Yuyu will not stay in the capital for a long time, the longer he stays in Yunnan and the more military exploits he makes, the more his father will fear him. As for Yuhong, because of your relationship, he will not touch me either."
He sighed faintly, "Being able to be with the person you like, and at the same time being able to tie down the two most threatening brothers, why not do it? But Ah Jin, I have no malicious deception or use towards you. "
"Malicious? What is malicious, and what is malicious?" Shen Haiyao asked back, "Sending Xihua to Yuhong, isn't this considered malicious use of me? Your reconciliation with Yuanyue is clearly planned. However, it is necessary to cover up the fact that it is for me—isn’t that considered a malicious deception?”
Shen Haiyao sneered and said, "Don't make yourself so great. Sooner or later, someone will expose what you have done. Even if it's not me, there will be someone else. Don't act like I hurt you and you are still big." The appearance of ignorance, is it disgusting?!"
A few days ago in Zhenghe Hall, the wound that Shi Zhong grabbed had scabbed over, but the prison was damp and cold, and was torn open by Yu Chen again.He scratched those wounds indifferently, trying to cover up the pain in his heart with the pain in his body.
I don't know when it started, Ah Jin seemed to be a different person...
Seeing that Yuchen still had no regrets, Shen Haiyao didn't waste any more words.
"Yu Chen, do you really value the East Palace and the throne so much?" Shen Haiyao put his hands on his knees and asked him with his chin propped up, "Your purpose is actually to kill Yu Hong and Yu Yu—or Said, to kill all the children of our emperor, right?"
Yu Chen's stagnant eyes finally fluctuated violently, he stared at Shen Haiyao, and smiled suddenly after a long while.
"Ah Jin, Ah Jin, when did you become so smart? What else do you know? Don't play tricks."
At first, Shen Haiyao was just wondering about one thing: if Yu Chen yearned so much for being an emperor, then why did he neglect government affairs after he ascended the throne, and only spend the whole day with Yin Xiujin? forced?
It's too weird.
And in this life, after Yuhong's health improved, he resumed his participation in politics immediately without delay; a few days ago, the emperor finally couldn't bear the torture of his sons and fell ill. Managed by Yuhong.Although they didn't say it explicitly, everyone knew in their hearts that the position in the East Palace already belonged to Yuhong.
It's not that he has to be as enthusiastic about government affairs as Yuhong, but in comparison, Yuchen in his previous life was too lazy.
So Shen Haiyao began to suspect that Yu Chen was not ready to be a good emperor at all, or that this was not what he wanted at all.
This is very strange, if he doesn't want to be the emperor, why bother so much trouble?
After much deliberation, Shen Haiyao can only come to one conclusion: the throne is just a by-product, what Yu Chen really wants to do is to make Yu Hong and Yu Yu die.
If so, it all makes sense.
"I heard that Your Majesty's biological mother, Empress Xiang, has been with our Majesty for a long time."
When he heard his mother's name, Yuchen's fingers twitched. He followed Shen Haiyao's example and curled up his legs.
"When His Majesty was just a prince, Concubine Xiang was a medical lady in the palace. Later, when His Majesty ascended the throne, she also entered the palace and became an ordinary medical officer." Shen Haiyao continued, "Then one day ——I don't know exactly what happened—in short, His Majesty forcibly favored Concubine Xiang and made her his own woman."
What happened afterwards was difficult to tell in Shen Haiyao's capacity, and secondly, there was no evidence, it was all his speculation, so he shut up in a timely manner.
Coincidentally, Yu Chen couldn't listen anymore, "...Stop talking."
"Okay." Shen Haiyao readily agreed, "Then let's skip over what's there and what's not—it's not important anyway—and talk about the result directly. The result is that after you were born, Concubine Xiang passed away soon Yes. Maybe what she said to you, maybe you guessed it yourself. In short, you believe that your father has failed your mother. You obviously don’t have her in your heart, but because of an accident, she was trapped in this deep place for a long time. In the palace, it caused her to die at a young age. You want to take revenge on him, you think, since your father likes to see the princes restraining each other so much, then you should start with these princes and let him also experience the loss of his dear ones taste."
After finishing speaking, Shen Haiyao tilted his head and asked, "Is that right?"
Yu Chen was silent for a long time, and said inaudibly: "...It's almost like this. I hate him for dragging my mother into this deep palace, and then ignoring her and abandoning her. It's too difficult to kill him. But--"
He showed a slightly cruel smile, "I can't kill him, but I know how to make him sad and make him feel so bad."
Shen Haiyao nodded and let out a deep breath.Knowing the truth like this, he didn't have any pleasure of guessing the truth, he just felt that something was wrong and God's will was unpredictable.
He said: "Then let me tell you something. You think that the emperor made Concubine Xiang feel unhappy in this deep palace, so you want to take revenge on him. But as far as I know, not long after, the emperor At the [-]th birthday banquet, he originally wanted to seal the Sixth Palace. Among them, the only deceased concubine who intends to advance to the throne is Concubine Xiang."
He continued in Yuchen's surprised eyes: "Even if this incident didn't happen, your previous power is not as good as before. Presumably he didn't think of this long-dead concubine just because of your face." The emperor himself said that he really has feelings for Concubine Xiang, and he has never forgotten her for so many years."
As a modern person, Shen Haiyao has accepted the concept of monogamy marriage since he was a child. He does not understand and absolutely agrees with the emperor's way of expressing love, but he still chooses to say these things in his life. There are unethical words in the concept.
He said: "The person has been gone for so long, and it is really difficult to prove anything based on the emperor's one-sided words. Besides, what can I do if I have been promoted to the position of Concubine Xiang? She is gone, and it is difficult to get this false position." What's the use? What I want to say is, Yuchen, you have spent so many years, so much thought, and designed so many games, what have you got? The emperor really treats you no more than Yuyu and Yuhong. What was given to you is not short of you. If it is true as he said, he has feelings for Concubine Xiang, and it is not as you imagined, then—"
His voice was very soft, but every word seemed to hit Yu Chen's heart, "Perhaps, you really hated the wrong person and avenged the wrong person."
Shen Haiyao stood up from the ground, patted the dust on his buttocks, and then took out something from his wide sleeve and threw it on Yuchen.He said: "We grew up together, and I understand your situation. To be honest, there are not many people who treat you sincerely. But Yuchen, you are the one who treats you sincerely. How to repay them?"
Shen Haiyao counted them one by one: "Has Yuyu treated you well? If he hadn't asked me to deliver you the wound ointment, we would never have known each other. Who else treats you sincerely?"
Shen Haiyao didn't speak anymore, just quietly watched Yuchen pick up the faded sachet from his clothes all the way to the ground in a panic.
He grabbed it in his hands and held it tightly to his chest.
A few seconds later, a very slight whimper finally let out.
It was the sachet found when Nie Hai led people to raid his residence. It contained a piece of wound ointment that had deteriorated for many years and could not even be seen in its original color.
It was given to him by Ah Jin when she came to his palace that year.

"Did he promise you that when he ascends the throne and becomes the emperor, he will let you take over your father's position as the commander-in-chief of the forbidden army?" Shen Haiyao asked.
