MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 609 Want to struggle

"Hmph, that sounds nice. You are rightly criticizing my political achievements here just because you want to cover up your own ambitions. When you come to power, you will probably be even more afraid of me than me. Gu Shaoyuneng Help me to ascend to the throne, then turn around and join you again. If someone he thinks is more suitable appears in the future, I'm afraid he will leave even more decisively than he did today!"

“Just wait! Hahahahaha, it’s just a puppet, it won’t take long to see his true face clearly!”

 The emperor became more and more excited as he spoke. He pointed at Gu Shaoyu and shouted from behind.

"I understand! The Crown Prince Bin, the Prince Rong, and the abdication edict are all just to create an internal fight among our Xie family. When the time comes for him to come and enjoy the fruits of his labor, the whole world will no longer have his surname! "

 For a moment, some pity flashed in Gu Shaoyu's eyes.

At one time, he also thought that with the support of Prime Minister Guo, the emperor in front of him could achieve some political achievements, so it would not be in vain for him to travel back and forth and protect him.

But now, the humble and prudent prince who was grateful for his kindness has become a thing of the past, and the person standing in front of him is just a lunatic who has been corrupted by the imperial power and has lost his normal thoughts, so he doesn't want to talk nonsense anymore.

 He turned to the prince and asked.

"Since His Majesty refuses to write an edict to abdicate, then the Crown Prince will decide."

Hearing this, the prince did not hesitate, nodded, looked at the emperor with compassion and said.

"Jia Gui's concubine poisoned your majesty and deserved to die. Everyone in the Dingping Marquis Mansion was a traitor. Fortunately, General Gu found out in time and they were all arrested. All the Jia family members are in prison, waiting to be dealt with!"

"yes!"

When he heard these words, the emperor gradually came to his senses from the crazy laughter just now. He looked at the two condescending people in front of him, feeling quite lonely in his heart.

“In the beginning, we forced our father to abdicate, and now it’s my turn. Haha, I’m just watching from the ground to see how long you can hold your position.”

The prince glanced at the emperor, said nothing, put on a black cloak and left the palace.

As soon as he left, Gu Shaoyu naturally had to leave, but what the emperor didn't expect was that the person who came in would be Eunuch Liu. He was still humble and low-key as always, but the seven or eight little eunuchs behind him looked different. An irritable face.

 “This old slave is here to see your majesty off. I hope your majesty can reach bliss as soon as possible.”

“It’s you, you old naughty slave! I’m really blind. You were the one who killed my father! Now you’re going to harm me again?”

Eunuch Liu was as calm as ever. He was not moved at all by these words. There was an unfathomable faint smile on his lips, and then he said.

“Your Majesty has given too much praise to the old slave. The old slave is just an **** who obeys orders. How could he possibly kill His Majesty the Emperor, who holds the power of the world?”

“Whose family are you from? The Guo family? Or the Gu family?”

 “The old slave has always been a member of the Daxing Dynasty, there is no doubt about this.”

Eunuch Liu did not answer the emperor's question directly, but he did not want to say more, so he waved his whisk and said.

 “Send our Majesty on his way.”

 “Yes, adoptive father.”

After saying that, several young eunuchs walked over and moved very quickly, pressing their hands and feet. Even though the emperor struggled hard, he was still poured into the poisonous wine in the end. The wine passed through his intestines, and he soon started to writhe in pain.

Eunuch Liu quietly looked at the emperor's miserable state without any guilt or nervousness. It was not until the struggling emperor in front of him gradually regained his composure that the young **** stepped forward to turn him over.

His lips were black and purple, his orifices were bleeding, and his death was truly miserable.

“Go and tell General Gu that your majesty has passed away and everything that needs to be dealt with should be dealt with.”

 “Yes, adoptive father.”

The snow had been falling all night, and when the sky became a little cloudy and bright, the news of the death of the emperor, Jia Guifei, the imperial concubine and the seventh prince came out one after another, causing shocks in the former dynasty and the harem.

 In the Changchun Palace, Queen Yan sat in silence all night.

Their place had long been sealed off by Gu Shaoyu's orders, and no one could come in or out, so she didn't know what was going on outside. Now when she heard the news, she was surprised and excited.

"Your Majesty is dead, the imperial concubine and the seventh prince are also dead. No one can compete with my son for the throne in the world! Hahahaha, I have finally come forward!"

She was not at all sad about the emperor's death. The long-lasting friendship between husband and wife had long since disappeared. If there was any trace of friendship left, it would be for the sake of her son's reputation, so she would definitely take care of the national funeral.

"Come here, you go tell father that the publicity outside can be arranged. Now that His Majesty is buried, there is no imperial edict left. Prince Rong of this palace is both the direct descendant and the eldest son, so he should inherit the throne! By the way, hurry up Recall the third brother to the capital, with him here, I can feel at ease!"

 “Mother, let’s go to the general’s place…”

"General Gu has worked hard and made great achievements. Naturally, he will be given a knighthood. However, it is not a good thing to rely too much on him. After all, this person has a ruthless mind. The Changchun Palace of this palace also granted the title to him. If he becomes too powerful in the future, I'm afraid he will It has an impact on the imperial power."

 Empress Yan sat in her bedroom and thought about everything.

But what she didn't expect was that the other princes outside the palace were now "forced" to hand over their rights and were quietly waiting for disposal.

 Prince Rong’s Mansion.

When Prince Rong saw that the visitors were the Crown Prince of Fenzhou and Gu Shaoyu, he already knew it in his heart. He was not as crazy as the emperor, nor as whimsical as Empress Yan, and he seemed very calm.

He just looked at Gu Shaoyu silently and said softly.

“What is General Gu’s reason for not choosing this king?”

He admits that he also has the people at heart. Although he is young, he is also working hard to achieve political achievements. He has imagined many things, especially how he will drastically change the style of government after he ascends the throne. Bring Daxing to a more complete and outstanding situation.

But now, the appearance of the two of them basically announced the end of his life, so before he died, he wanted to ask clearly why Gu Shaoyu would rather choose Prince Bin and be charged with rebellion than I am willing to directly assist him, the just and legitimate Prince Rong, to ascend to the throne!

Gu Shaoyu took a step forward and answered with clear and firm eyes.

"It is a good thing that Prince Rong is kind, but if you can't even protect your own children, how can you protect the people?"

 In one sentence, Prince Rong completely lost hope.

Yes, his only child, who had the opportunity to see everything in this world, died just like that when he was just born, and he couldn't even find the murderer, so what else could he talk about? (End of chapter)
