Chapter 281 Common People, Give Death
"Your Majesty, Madam Huang next to Concubine Xian is a fellow of Wei Chen, and she gave Wei Chen the medicine. She also threatened Wei Chen with the lives of his wife and children, and Wei Chen deserves death for his crimes..." Feng Taiyi explained it all at once. .
"You..." Concubine Xian glared at Imperial Physician Feng fiercely, and wanted to argue again.
But I heard the second prince say with a weeping voice: "Mother concubine, Erchen knows that you feel sorry for Erchen's imprisonment. But you can't attack the father, that is Erchen's father!"
Then, under Concubine Xiangui's unbelievable expression, he took two steps on his knees, hugged Emperor Shengde's thigh, and cried out, "Father, please see the concubine's love for her son, and spare her life. The son is willing to exchange the position of the prince for the life of the mother and concubine!"
Concubine Xian's face was ashen, and her body was shaky. This son of hers really has the heart of a wolf and wolf, and he can't harm his father. It's all down to her, the concubine who loves him, loves him, and plans for him wholeheartedly. Stop it, killing the emperor and seizing the throne is a big gamble. , someone loses a life.
If she is allowed to choose, she will do everything she can to exonerate the emperor. It's a pity that her good emperor may not accept her love, but will blame her for being stupid in her heart, and this can't be done. She knows Huang'er too well. Even if such a person ascends the throne, it may not be a blessing for Da Yan!
"No! One person does things for one person! The emperor, it was the concubine who couldn't bear the emperor's imprisonment, so she was confused for a while and gave the emperor medicine. The concubine was found guilty, this matter has nothing to do with the second prince, please don't take anger on him... After saying this, Concubine Xian burst into tears.
"What a mother, kind and filial to the son! Then I will fulfill you all!" Emperor Shengde looked at this farce with cold eyes. The good emperor he had carefully cultivated, in order to save his life and for that position, did not hesitate to kill his father and put all the blame on to his mother-in-law. How could Dayan Jiangshan be handed over to such a wolf-hearted person? If it is said, everything the second prince has done before has only disappointed Emperor Shengde. Now, Emperor Shengde has completely abandoned this son.
However, thinking of the reckless third prince and the frail and sickly fourth prince, Emperor Shengde showed a look of dejection. Who should Dayan Jiangshan be entrusted to?
"The second prince was demoted to a commoner, imprisoned the imperial mausoleum, and made atonement for the ancestors. Concubine Xian...give a white silk!" Emperor Shengde waved his hand weakly.
The second prince was shocked. His move was just to retreat, but he didn't expect it to be self-defeating. Not only did he fail to save the life of his mother, he even lost his position as a prince.
"Father, the child is wronged! Father..." The second prince begged for a few words. Seeing that Emperor Shengde was unmoved, he knew that the father had made up his mind, and it would be futile to ask again, "Father, you The child has been demoted to a commoner, who else can this great flame be handed over to? The stupid third child? The fourth child who is sick and dying
"You say the third is stupid and brainless? You are the stupidest!!" Emperor Shengde threw the cup in his hand at the second prince, "Knowing that he has the best chance of inheriting the country, why do you still do those stupid things? Place it in the courtroom It's enough for you to exclude dissidents. But what about the general king? He has always been loyal to the emperor. When you ascend the throne, he will be a sharp blade in your hand. You idiot broke your arm!
If you honestly serve as a clerk and work diligently and diligently, after a hundred years, will I still be able to pass on the throne to you? But you can't wait...kill the king, kill the father...you are so good...cough cough..."
The poison in Emperor Shengde's body had just been partially relieved, and when he was excited, he spit out a mouthful of black blood. With a complexion like golden paper, he was swaying on the dragon couch.
A slender and tall figure flashed from the bright yellow drape beside the dragon couch. He put a pill into Emperor Shengde's mouth, and there was no emotion in his indifferent voice: "Your Majesty, please take care!"
The second prince took a closer look and couldn't help being horrified: "Ling Juechen, you...you really didn't die - it's you! It's you, right?
Ling Juechen's handsome face was icy cold: "Our Ling family has always been loyal to the emperor. Naturally, we can't just watch the emperor get killed by a traitor!"
"Impossible, there is no cure for Qi Jue San, you should have died a long time ago! Impossible, this is impossible!!" The second prince struggled to rush over, but was held down by the Royal Forest Army.
"All things in the world are mutually reinforcing. There is no poison that cannot be cured. It's just that there is no right way." Ling Juechen stood in front of the second prince and looked at him indifferently. That condescending gesture, as if nothing was in his eyes.
The second prince realized that his struggle was in vain, so he gave up. He looked up at Ling Juechen and smiled bitterly: "It's this expression again! Obviously I am the prince, you are just a minister. But your eyes, Your expression, your every move, make me feel that I am incompetent. I want to destroy you, tear up your face... I want to ascend the throne of the ninety-five, the king wants ministers The dead minister has to die! I want you to submit to my feet—"
Ling Juechen didn't even blink his eyes, and still said in a light tone: "It's not that the minister does not respect His Highness, it's that His Highness lacks the confidence and courage that the emperor should have. Just as the emperor said, the minister is nothing but a sharp blade in the king's hand. , If the master can control it, how can the sharp blade counterattack? The second prince, a person who looks arrogant and conceited, but has low self-esteem in his heart, cannot take on the heavy responsibility of the world!"
"I don't have low self-esteem? I am the prince, the proud son of heaven, how can I be low-minded in front of your little official? Father, the Ling family holds a heavy army, and Ling Juechen has a great reputation. Beware of his high power and shocking master!" The prince himself had no hope of claiming that position, but he wanted to bite the Ling family and plant a thorn in the heart of Emperor Shengde!
"Take it down!" Emperor Shengde waved his hand impatiently, but did not listen to the second prince's cry. He squeezed his eyebrows, showing a hint of fatigue.
"Your Majesty, take care of your dragon's body and take rest. Wei Chen retire." Ling Juechen bowed and was about to leave.
"Wait! The expert who helps you detoxify must have extraordinary medical skills, right? Then... can the body of the fourth prince be well maintained?" Emperor Shengde thought of the son who was very intelligent since he was a child, and was very fond of him. pity……
"Wei Chen doesn't know... Wei Chen has already started to ask for a doctor, and I believe that he will arrive in Shengjing in a few days."
Emperor Shengde noticed this nephew's change: "You kid, go out and talk a lot. People are also human. Did meeting someone change you?"
Ling Juechen was silent: Your Majesty, is it really okay for you to gossip like this?
Seeing this boy, Emperor Shengde returned to his ruthless and taciturn appearance, and said with a snort: "No wonder the second child will attack you, your boy is sometimes itchy, and wants to clean up you! Go, General Ling is very worried. You... and, go see your mother, she still cares about you in her heart."
