478, the situation of Emperor Yongjia
The person sent to the imperial edict in the palace was taken down by Princess Shenyou. When the person who had not entered the door was waiting and waiting, but never saw the person who had sent the edict came out, he was a little anxious for a moment. However, Princess Shenyou was the emperor who personally issued the imperial edict than the prince. To put it bluntly, the rank of Prince Nankang, who is in power today, was even higher. Even if these people rely on the power of Prince Nankang, they would not dare to force themselves to break into the princess's mansion. After knocking on the door and asking for it two or three times, the answers they got were all left by the princess, and finally felt something was wrong and hurried back to the palace to report.
Prince Nankang was stunned when he heard the news. After a while, he finally realized. Of course he knew what was going on, but he still couldn't believe that Princess Shenyou was so brave that he dared to detain the envoy who sent the orders privately.
Prince Nankang, who was so angry that he had not spoken for a long time, gritted his teeth for a while, and finally got up and rushed to Emperor Yongjia's bedroom angrily.
There was a faint smell of medicine in the bedroom. Emperor Yongjia was lying on the bed and his face was a little dim. It was obvious that he was not clear about illness. Concubine Xian sat by the bed and carefully fed him medicine. Not far away on the other side, Duke Xiangguo sat in a chair on one side and looked at the scene with worry. After Concubine Xian took out the medicine, she took out the silk and wiped the medicine juice on Emperor Yongjia's lips before she stood up with the medicine bowl, "Duke."
Duke Xiangguo quickly stood up and bowed, "Empress."
Concubine Xian looked at Emperor Yongjia and sighed softly, "I go to the kitchen to see Your Majesty's dinner. There is a Duke of Lu here."
Xiangguo said justice: "Please rest assured, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Concubine Xian shook her head and left with the medicine bowl. Since she was under house arrest in the palace, Prince Nankang no longer allowed any maids in the harem to see Your Majesty. Concubine Xian stepped in with a tough attitude, and Prince Nankang just stepped back. The three concubines in the harem were of extraordinary origin. Although they did not have much favor in recent years, the respect and favor given to them by Emperor Yongjia was enough. In recent years, Prince Shenyou also got along well with Princess Shenyou. The concubines did not think that if they had changed to an emperor, their lives would be better than they are now. When Concubine Xian broke in, the two and two empresses also helped a lot. Before Prince Nankang really ascended the throne, he did not want to offend the three empresses' homes too much, so he gave in to the Concubine Xian to come in to serve the sick.
"Your Majesty, what do you think?" After the Xian Concubine went out, Duke Xiangguo stepped forward and asked.
Emperor Yongjia shook his head and said sadly: "You said... can Qing'er come back?"
Xiangguo said justice: "Your Majesty, take care of yourself. The princess will definitely get the news and rush back to the ground as soon as possible."
Emperor Yongjia shook his head and sighed, "Actually... I hope she won't come back. There are so many messy things in Pingjing Imperial City, she is a girl's house... What kind of throne is Nankang, just give it to him." Duke Xiangguo shook his head and said, "Your Majesty must not think so. Does Your Majesty still understand the princess's character? There are many people who are concerned about in Pingjing, how could she not come back? If Your Majesty admits defeat to Prince Nankang, once the princess comes back, it will be in a difficult situation. In addition... I suspect that the princess is probably back."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Yongjia's eyes lit up. He grabbed Xiangguo and said, "You...how did you know?"
Duke Xiangguo whispered: "A moment ago, Empress Xianfei mentioned a few words to the minister, saying that Prince Nankang sent someone to bring the imperial edict to the princess's mansion. Now there is no master in the princess's mansion. What is the intention of Prince Nankang sent someone to the princess's mansion to convey? It may only be that the princess has returned."
Emperor Yongjia struggled to get up and said anxiously: "That thief wants to harm Qing'er! It must be that he faked the imperial edict and wanted to harm Qing'er!"
"Your Majesty!" Seeing that his anxious face turned red and coughed constantly, Duke Xiangguo hurriedly comforted him: "Your Majesty is merciful. The princess is not an ordinary woman. How could he be trapped in the trick of Prince Nankang?"
Emperor Yongjia finally calmed down and snorted coldly: "That traitor dared to hurt Qing'er with a finger. I will let him never get to that position rightfully in his life."
Why was Prince Nankang so polite to Duke Xiangguo and Emperor Yongjia? Of course, it was not that he really planned to ascend the throne slowly after Emperor Yongjia died of illness. But even if Emperor Yongjia was under house arrest, he still did not have the token of ascending the throne openly. Each emperor had many jade seals, but there was only one national seal of the Apocalypse. Not to mention, as the emperor, he had to control the clan orders of the Chu clan. There was no such thing as either. Even if Prince Nankang really ascended the throne, he and his descendants would only be a usurper in history.
Now it is not time for Prince Nankang to burn his boats, so he naturally doesn't want things to be so embarrassed. People in the world have many reputations, and even though they are the royal family, the Chu family is even more so.
"Your Majesty is indeed a good father. I really admire you." As soon as Emperor Yongjia finished speaking, Prince Nankang walked in quickly from outside. Seeing Prince Nankang, Emperor Yongjia's face became even more angry, "Nankang, you traitor!"
Prince Nankang sneered, his eyes swept over the Duke of Xiangguo and fell on Emperor Yongjia, "Why should your Majesty be so angry? Do you think those ministers in the court don't know what's going on? Even if you know, so what? Can someone say something for Your Majesty? It can be seen that Your Majesty is unpopular. The old saying goes, "Those who win the hearts of the people will win the world. Why don't Your Majesty abdicate and give in to the wise? Maybe you can have a good ending."
The Duke of Xiangguo said coldly: "The Prince of Nankang is too proud. Prince Nankang dares to go to the court to announce the world that you want to ascend the throne and become emperor?"
Prince Nankang smiled faintly and said, "Duke Xiangguo wants to anger me? Even if I am the emperor now, probably few people will object, right?"
The Duke of Xiangguo sneered and said bluntly: "I'm afraid that Prince Nankang has not yet divided the interests with others. Even if you want to ascend the throne, those who cooperate with you will not agree? After all, you are begging others now. Once you ascend to the throne and become emperor, if you turn against others, you don't know who is begging whom." Prince Nankang's face changed slightly, and he stared at Xiangguo coldly and said, "You have said too much."
After Duke Xiangguo interrupted a few words, Emperor Yongjia had recovered his calmness. He sat up and looked at Prince Nankang and said, "It seems that things are not as smooth as you said."
Prince Nankang sneered and said, "It's not going well. Your Majesty raised a good daughter, you are really brave! He dared to disobey the imperial edict and dared to privately seize the envoy who sent the edict. Isn't your majesty afraid that your daughter will deceive the king one day?" Emperor Yongjia said, "I am happy even if she deceives the king. No matter what it is, giving her is better than giving you a traitor."
Prince Nankang's face suddenly changed, and he pointed at Emperor Yongjia and said, "It is said that Your Majesty is too fond of Princess Shenyou, so that Princess Shenyou acted recklessly. Today, I really believe it. Your Majesty can say such words, aren't you afraid of being sorry for the spirit of heaven among the ancestors and clans?" In the eyes of the world, no matter how close the princess Chu Ling is, she is just an outsider, and Prince Nankang is still the bloodline of the Chu clan.
Emperor Yongjia snorted coldly and said, "What's the use of saying this?"
Prince Nankang gritted his teeth and said, "Tell the national seal and the clan order!" The edicts in the past few days are covered with the seal of Emperor Yongjia. Unless it is a major matter between countries or a sacrifice, using the emperor's private seal is not a country. After all, the emperor is the world. However, if you want to truly control the entire world, these two things must be there.
Emperor Yongjia said: "If you have the ability, you can find it yourself."
"You think I dare not kill you!" Prince Nankang said with a ugly face. The Duke of Xiangguo stood in front of Emperor Yongjia's bed with vigilance. Emperor Yongjia seemed much calmer and said, "If I could kill me, wouldn't you have done it long ago? Nankang, why did you suddenly become so impatient after you have been patient for so many years? You said well before, I did raise a good daughter. I don't know who the Tianqi Kingdom will fall into, but at least I still know that as long as Qing'er is still alive, she will always avenge her father no matter what."
The Duke of Xiangguo said coldly: "Prince Nankang, how dare you be rude to Your Majesty!"
Prince Nankang snorted coldly and said, "I cannot be rude to Your Majesty, but it is okay to be rude to Duke Xiangguo. Is it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, two men with guards appeared outside the door, "Prince."
The Prince of Nankang said: "Please change the place to rest."
"Nankang!"
"Nankang County Prince!"
The two guards stepped forward, pulled Duke Xiangguo from left to right and walked out. Emperor Yongjia was furious but could not help but sit on the bed in anger. Prince Nankang looked at Emperor Yongjia with a smile and said, "Your Majesty, you look like this and feel pitiful, why bother to struggle? Do you really think that a princess of God bless can turn the situation around?" Emperor Yongjia said angrily: "Get out!"
Prince Nankang chuckled twice, and the anger that had previously arose because of Chu Ling was wiped out, and he turned around and walked outside.
When I walked to the door, I happened to meet Concubine Xian who came in with a food box, "Concubine Xian."
Concubine Xian looked at him lightly and said, "Your Majesty is the king, and the prince is the minister. Prince Nankang should be more restrained."
Prince Nankang raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "I heard that Your Majesty is very affectionate to the harem, but I didn't expect that Concubine Xian was still so affectionate to Your Majesty. It's a pity."
Concubine Xian said, "The prince is joking. It is my duty to serve Your Majesty. It is like... loyalty to Your Majesty is my duty to be a minister. Prince, what do you think?"
Prince Nankang was so choked that he couldn't speak. He glanced at Concubine Xian with a gloomy look, and snorted and turned around and brushed his sleeves away. Concubine Xian glanced at his departure back lightly, and turned around and walked into the hall.
