Chapter 571 The Regent and the Crown Prince (1)

Because of the emperor's serious illness, the palace was already dark before the New Year passed. In the past few days, the Li King's faction and the Liu Prime Minister's faction in the court have been fighting openly and secretly. All the well-informed people who fell ill know the truth. Everyone's eyes were on the golden throne in the hall, and even the Huai's request for help from Zijing Pass were ignored. Mo Jingqi lay on the bed, and was confused every day and even the difficulty in taking care of himself, let alone handling the government.

"Prince." The eunuch guarding outside the bedroom shrank and kept warm because of the cold weather. Seeing the man in brocade clothes strode forward and saluted naturally, a flattering smile appeared on his face. Mo Jingli looked at the eunuch in front of him proudly and said coldly: "I have something to discuss with the emperor."

The eunuch was stunned and said in embarrassment: "But now..." Mo Jingli glanced at the sharp eyes and said coldly: "What? I want you to agree if I want to see the emperor brother?"

The eunuchs at the door trembled in their hearts. They did get the orders of the Imperial Concubine and Prime Minister Liu to prevent King Li from entering, but no one can explain the situation in the palace now. King Li is now in power, so they naturally cannot afford to be punished. After hesitating and cheating, everyone guarding the door finally retreated and said with a smile: "I dare not... the prince asks me." Mo Jingli snorted lightly and stepped into the bedroom.

The bright yellow and elegant furnishings came into my eyes, and Mo Jingli's eyes shook slightly. Looking at Mo Jingqi lying silently on the bed, Mo Jingli suddenly felt angry and felt a hint of unspeakable pleasure. He knew that Mo Jingqi was not asleep, so he walked up to the edge of the bed and looked at the yellow-skinned man on the bed. A satisfied smile appeared on his lips. The secret medicine he got from southern Xinjiang was much better than the so-called Wushi Powder. He didn't feel anything when he was taking it, but once the medicine was stopped, the effect was definitely a hundred times more than that of Wushi Powder. In just a few days, Mo Jingqi had become shaped and bone-like.

After thinking about it, Mo Jingli knew that a very small pill was stuffed into Mo Jingqi's mouth. Mo Jingqi's dark and blank eyes gradually showed a hint of spirit. When he saw the person standing in front of his window, an angry light burst out from his eyes, and a giggle in his throat. Mo Jingli was so leisurely that he turned his head and asked, "What do the emperor want to say?"

"You...you dare to come?" Mo Jingqi said with a voice. He had never spoken or eaten for several days, which made his throat dry and hoarse in his eyes. Mo Jingli smiled and said, "Why don't I dare to come? Brother, I am worried about you."

Mo Jingqi stared at the person in front of him with resentment, as if he wanted to bite him to death. Mo Jingli walked to the bed and sat down. Looking at Mo Jingqi's resentful appearance, a strange smile appeared on his face, "Brother, you really shouldn't blame me. If you want to blame me... just blame my mother. If she hadn't been instilling those ideas in me to suppress you, if she hadn't supported me to fight against you for her own rights, maybe we are still brothers and brothers now.

What about a good brother of Gong? The emperor brother... do you know how failed you are in life? Look at you... the mother wants to deal with you, the younger brother wants to deal with you, and the royal relatives of the royal family ignore you. Do you think they don't know that you are sick? But did they ask? If you want to blame, you blame you for being too cruel to the royal family, so now you have no one to help you when you encounter something. Even your favorite Concubine Liu and the Liu family... Haha, I'm afraid I've had my own plans long ago."

Mo Jingqi widened his eyes, revealing a look of disbelief in his eyes. Mo Jingli didn't care, and asked Youran: "Have Concubine Liu visited you these days? No... Yes, Concubine Liu's heart is on Mo Xiuyao. How could she come to see you at this time? The Liu family is helping to push Concubine Liu's son to the throne."

Mo Jingqi's face turned blue with anger. He wanted to roar loudly but his body could not even support the strength of the roar. He only heard Mo Jingli continue, "Emperor, do you know... If I ascend the throne, you may still have a way out. After all... even if you are concerned about your mother and Mo Xiuyao's brother, you will let you live. But if Concubine Liu's son ascends the throne, I promise you will not survive for a month. After all, if there is still a Supreme Emperor above the little emperor, how can Concubine Liu be an empress dowager who rules the country behind the curtain? Brother, I didn't expect that your cold and arrogant concubine had such ambitions. Do you know why she wanted to rule the country behind the curtain? Haha... She wanted to control the entire Great Chu and then compete with Ye Li for Mo Xiuyao. What a loveless woman, do you think?"

"Wow—!" Mo Jingqi's face turned blue and red, and finally he spat out a mouthful of blood. He lay on the bed, without even the strength to get up. He spitted his neck and front, and even the lower half of his face was covered with blood, looking terrifying and pitiful. When a generation of emperors fell to such a level, the anger and sorrow in his heart can be imagined.

Mo Jingli looked at him without any pity, "How is it? Brother, have you figured it out?" Mo Jingqi stared at him for a long time and suddenly started to laugh. His bloody face and strange smile made Mo Jingli narrow his eyes unhappily.

Mo Jingqi gasped for a while before speaking, "If you want to force me, just offend me? Brother... Don't forget that I am the brother. Your methods are the ones I played with back then. I... really shouldn't have shown mercy to you!" Mo Jingli frowned, looking at Mo Jingqi's smile, feeling a little uneasy. It has reached this point, and he really can't think of any other moves Mo Jingqi can have.

Staring at the messy man on the bed, Mo Jingli frowned. Mo Jingqi looked at him with a smile and said slowly: "Jingli... After so many years, you still have only one child under your knees?" Mo Jingli narrowed his eyes slightly, not understanding what he wanted to do when he mentioned this. He only heard Mo Jingqi say slowly: "If I say you will only have this child in your life. What do you do?"

"What do you mean?" Mo Jingli's face changed, and he stepped forward and grabbed Mo Jingqi's clothes and pulled him out of the bed and asked sternly.

For men, the importance of offspring is sometimes better than power. Although many people can sacrifice their children for power, it is because they have many children. If none of them are left, the significance of all power and status in the world will immediately drop by half. After sitting on the throne but not being able to pass it to their own offspring, it seems like a person who has worked hard to save money for his whole life, but ends up cheapering other people's sons. Although Mo Jingli is not without a son, the only son, Ye Ying, born to his only son, is indeed very young and sick, and under seven years old, it always makes people worry that he will not survive the twentieth crown.

After Mo Jingqi said this, Mo Jingli was shocked and stared at Mo Jingqi fiercely and said, "What did you do? No... you can't have the chance to drug me?" Mo Jingli is not a person without any precautions. In fact, he is more careful about his brother than anyone else. He is usually careful about food, clothing, housing and transportation. Mo Jingli refused to have the chance to drug him.
