Xiaosheng is not a nerd

Chapter 1705 Prison Visit

It was already the third day after Emperor Xiaoyong's death, and his coffin was placed in the main hall of the imperial palace.

The next day, Crown Prince Qin Chucheng, who held the power of commanding the six guards of the Eastern Palace, controlled the entire palace and was ready to succeed to the throne in the name of the crown prince. However, several ministers showed up and desperately opposed it. They listed Qin Chucheng's crimes in front of the mourning hall, and even bluntly said that Qin Chucheng was guilty of the great crime of disrespect, that he had no father or mother, was unkind and unfilial, and that as a criminal minister and deposed crown prince, how could he be qualified to inherit the throne of the emperor.

The ministers in the palace opposed it, but Cui Sanfei, who was the chief steward of the Prince's Chamberlain outside the palace, unexpectedly got Qin Chuzhen's Jingzhao Yin's token and joined forces with the Ministry of War to control the periphery of the imperial palace. In the name of the future wise monarch, they supported Qin Chuzhen, the Prince of Qi, to succeed to the throne and forced the Prince Qin Chucheng to withdraw from the competition for the throne.

It was not until this time that everyone realized that Cui Sanfei was Qi Wang Qin Chuzhen's man, and had been placed undercover beside the prince.

Unexpectedly, at this time, news came that King Qin Chuzhen of Qi was killed by bandits in the south of the Yangtze River. Just when Cui Sanfei didn't know what to do, an important official in the court recommended the third princess Qin Chushang to take charge of the situation, temporarily take over the duties of the heir, and support the funeral and government affairs, saying that "the country cannot be without a monarch for a day".

It was against etiquette and law for a woman to become the heir to the throne, but this was the only solution available.

With the recommendation of all the ministers and the support of Cui Sanfei, the third princess Qin Chushang inexplicably became the new heir.

On the third day, the new heir Qin Chushang, at the suggestion of important ministers, replaced the commander of the six guards of the Eastern Palace, undermined the military power of Crown Prince Qin Chucheng, and took control of the palace in his own hands. The situation of Crown Prince Qin Chucheng was hopeless.

Perhaps because they were afraid that Crown Prince Qin Chucheng would be purged after becoming emperor, various forces would rather have a person without any foundation to be emperor. The day after Qin Chucheng became the new heir, everything was calm, as if the overall situation had been decided.

In order to protect their lives and property and maintain their wealth and glory, even these different forces have expressed their firm support for the new heir Qin Chushang.

It was late at night, and the new heir Qin Chushang returned to her bedroom from the mourning hall to rest. Although she had not ascended the throne, everyone knew that it was a foregone conclusion that she would become the only empress of Daguan Kingdom in more than 200 years.

The outer area of ​​the bedroom was still guarded by the original personnel, but the inner area had been replaced by the female guards brought by Qin Chushang from the Prince Consort's Mansion. Li Zhi was appointed as the chief of the imperial guards and the commander-in-chief of the Central Imperial Guard.

Qin Chushang sat down on the couch, holding his face with his hands, looking tired.

The bedroom was brightly lit, and eunuchs and guards were waiting outside the tent, but Qin Chushang felt inexplicably lonely in her heart.

At the critical moment, the new chief imperial guard, Li Zhi, stood guard outside the tent and asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to order the eunuchs to undress and bathe you?"

Your Majesty! What a strange title. This was not what she wanted to pursue, but it was also what she wanted to pursue. Qin Chushang suddenly felt empty and confused, and there was no joy in her heart to become the new emperor.

She once longed for this day to come, to show her talents and create something grand. Such anticipation made her excited, full of vitality and enthusiasm.

But at this moment she felt like a flower that had lost its vitality and was withering.

Maybe she has changed, her revenge has been achieved, and her original intention has changed.

This scene seemed infinitely sad in the eyes of others.

"His Majesty."

Seeing that the new emperor had not responded for a long time, Li Zhi called him again softly.

Qin Chuchang finally came back to her senses and said, "No need... Everyone please leave... I... I want to be alone for a while."

Everyone retreated, only Li Zhi remained where he was.

"Lizhi, you should also step down."

Qin Chuchang sat for a while and stood up, preparing to take off his imperial robes and change into casual clothes to meet someone. He had just taken off half of his clothes when he heard Li Zhi's footsteps coming in again: "Your Majesty, the... eldest prince wants to see you."

Qin Chushang put on the half-removed imperial robe again: "Let him in."

"Yes."

After a while, Qin Chucheng, led by Li Zhi, walked into the bedroom with a happy look on his face. He did not look like a man whose father had just died. There was not much love between fathers and sons and brothers in the royal family. There were only power struggles.

Through the gauze curtain, the new emperor was sitting upright on the couch. His hazy figure was elegant, noble, and beautiful, which made Qin Chucheng so excited that his knees softened unconsciously and he wished he could kneel down immediately.

Seeing Li Zhi standing aside with no intention of leaving, he looked at Li Zhi and said, "I have something to discuss with His Majesty. You should leave first."

Li Zhi, however, did not move at all. She was the Third Princess's loyal follower and only obeyed the Third Princess' orders, both in the past and now.

Qin Chushang said: "Li Zhi, please leave."

"Yes."

As soon as Li Zhi left, Qin Chucheng fell to his knees and then slowly crawled towards the gauze tent like a dog.

Qin Chushang sat there in silence, without showing any surprise on her cold face, as if she was used to it.

Qin Chucheng crawled all the way to the front of the gauze curtain before stopping. He raised his head and looked inside the curtain. Under the light, the image of the new emperor sitting on the couch became clearer and more noble and awe-inspiring.

There was a hint of excitement in his timidity, and he called out, "Imperial sister."

Qin Chushang said coldly: "Now is a troubled time, can't you be more content?"

"I can't bear it anymore. Sister, you don't know that the moment you were designated as the heir, I wanted to be the first to kneel down to you. For the past two days, I have been..."

Qin Chushang interrupted coldly: "Okay!"

Qin Chucheng smiled, looked at Xinjun through the gauze curtain, and asked softly, "Is it okay?"

Qin Chushang remained silent. Qin Chucheng boldly used his head to open the gauze curtain and crawled in, staring at the pair of imperial boots carved with dragons and phoenixes and decorated with pearls and gems.

His head was moving almost close to the ground, all the way to the feet of the new emperor. Just as he was getting close to him, the new emperor saw through his thoughts, and one of his shoes suddenly fell off his foot and flew outside the tent.

Qin Chucheng turned around like a hound that had received an order and pounced on the place where the shoes and boots fell, sniffing at them like prey.

Qin Chuchang's eyes were cold as she watched this scene as if she was used to it. This brother had been a pervert since he was a child, with a deformed and twisted heart. She had always been protecting him, otherwise he would have committed treason and unforgivable crimes and been executed. But in this way, she was equivalent to indulging him.

She would not indulge him anymore. From this moment on, she would put an end to all this filth and ugliness. A hint of murderous intent flashed across her eyes: "Get up!"

Qin Chucheng's body seemed to be controlled by the sound. He stood up suddenly, but his eyes were fixed on the noble imperial boots on the ground, as if they were a piece of delicious food.

"What's the matter, looking for me so urgently?"

Qin Chucheng looked at the new emperor with a greedy face and said in a flattering manner: "Imperial sister, I am so pent up. You said that you would let me smell your feet when you sit on the throne."

Qin Chushang sneered: "If you can't tell me something serious, I will kill you."

Qin Chucheng smiled and said, "Imperial sister, you just became the emperor and you are already putting on airs in front of me, but I like it. In my eyes, you are the most noble woman in the world." As he spoke, his eyes suddenly became cold and vicious, and he changed the subject: "The day you marry Su Huaizhang, I wish I could cut him into pieces."

Qin Chushang said coldly: "There is nothing between me and him, he is just my dog."

Qin Chucheng said coldly: "Royal sister, your dog can only be me. Su Huaizhang is not even worthy of being your dog." As he said that, his expression immediately turned into a smile: "Now you are not only the most noble woman in the world, but also the most powerful woman in the world. I admire you even more." As he said that, his knees went weak again.

"Brother, I'll give you one more chance!"

Qin Chucheng said bluntly: "I want to kill Cui Sanfei." Qin Chushang said calmly: "Is that all?"

"Yes, this bastard is actually Qin Chuzhen's man. I must kill him for this humiliation."

"Hasn't the humiliation you've suffered been enough?"

Qin Chucheng smiled awkwardly: "I am willing to be humiliated by you, my royal sister."

Qin Chushang said calmly: "Cui Sanfei is Xie Fu's sworn brother."

"He's Xie Fu's sworn brother, so I'm going to kill him too."

"You are not allowed to touch Cui Sanfei, get out of here."

Qin Chucheng walked up to the new emperor angrily and asked, "Are you in love with him?"

Qin Chushang smiled sweetly, her eyes were as bright as black jade, her nose was like jade, her mouth was like sandalwood, and she was luxurious and beautiful with a hint of charm. Her stunning beauty contained a hint of enchantment, which made Qin Chucheng extremely jealous.

"You are not allowed to fall in love with him, you are mine!"

Qin Chucheng knelt down on his knees and lowered his head to sniff the new emperor's noble feet, but Qin Chushang did not give him the opportunity and grabbed his neck with her hands.

Looking at it, the new emperor's face was already covered with frost and his eyes were icy.

Qin Chucheng felt ravage, pain, suffocation, and death. His body was tense but he did not resist, because only this degree could stimulate his twisted soul, and this was what he longed for.

Qin Chushang loosened her grip slightly and said coldly: "I don't belong to anyone, let alone you."

Qin Chucheng nodded and panted, saying, "Yes, I belong to you. I am your loyal dog. Let the lackey please your noble majesty."

In a flash, Qin Chushang's eyes flashed with murderous intent and discomfort. She wanted to kill this mentally twisted thing, but he was also her only relative.

He sneered and said, "You dirty and despicable thing, from now on, if you dare to get within ten feet of me, I will kill you."

"Royal sister, please don't. You can punish me however you want, but you can't treat me like this."

Qin Chuchang's hand around his neck suddenly tightened, then loosened again, throwing Qin Chucheng out heavily, and said coldly: "Qin Chucheng, this is not a game!"

Qin Chucheng said angrily: "Then you might as well kill me!"

As he spoke, he ignored the pain in his body and quickly crawled towards the new emperor.

Seeing that he was beyond help, Qin Chushang closed his eyes.

Qin Chucheng crawled to her feet and kissed the new emperor's feet which were covered with silk stockings.

Qin Chushang only gave the twisted Qin Chucheng hope, but never let him succeed, not in the past and not today.

He raised his foot and kicked Qin Chucheng's chin. Qin Chucheng, who was crawling on the ground, jumped up. Qin Chushang turned his head away from him and reached out to grab Qin Chucheng's neck again.

At first, Qin Chucheng's eyes were wide open, with excitement flashing in them, but as Qin Chushang's five fingers slowly tightened, the pain of suffocation and the fear of death made him instinctively grab Qin Chushang's wrists with both hands and struggle. He wanted to beg for mercy but could only utter painful and inarticulate words.

Qin Chushang remained motionless, extremely cold, her heart filled with brutal murderous intent. She wanted to eliminate all the ugliness and filth of the Qin family and the royal family.

But as Qin Chucheng's hands fell limply and his body became limp, Qin Chushang's heart softened again.

She has not yet reached the point of losing her humanity. On the contrary, her heart longs for family, friendship, and love. She was once a pure and innocent girl with beautiful dreams in her heart. Until she met her mother, and the moment their destinies were connected, everything changed.

As soon as his five fingers loosened, Qin Chucheng fell to the ground, motionless, and fainted.

"Lizhi!"

Li Zhi heard the new emperor's call and walked in. Seeing Qin Chucheng lying motionless on the ground, he was slightly surprised.

Qin Chushang ordered: "Castrate him, and then send him to Tianning Temple to become a monk."

Li Zhi dragged the man away, and Qin Chushang breathed a sigh of relief only after a long time.

The surroundings are full of filth and ugliness, and only in front of the man with a pure soul can she find a sense of belonging. This is why she can't help but want to get close to him, as it was in the past and it is still the same now.

……

Xie Fu opened his eyes and woke up. His body was so stiff that he looked like a baby with weak limbs. It was pitch black all around him. Even with his extraordinary eyesight, he could only see darkness.

Perhaps it was the stiffness of his body that made Xie Fu think that he was dead, but the faint sadness that permeated his heart made him conscious.

He experienced life and death, and had his share of wins and losses, but he never suffered such a crushing defeat as this time, because he could not protect the people he wanted to protect.

Where is this place? Where is Du Zhiwei? On the top of Penglai Pavilion, he was poisoned by the flower of the dead body. Later, his body began to become stiff, and the blood in his body stopped flowing. He was unconscious as if he was frozen.

After taking a dozen breaths, Xie Fu prepared to stand up. As soon as he moved, he heard a loud noise. Then he noticed that his arms and feet were locked with an iron chain as thick as his arms.

  I was imprisoned! Could it be that Qin Xiaofu won and Yuyang lost in the end!

The air was filled with a gloomy and foul smell, as if it was a dungeon.

This thought actually aroused Xie Fu's will to survive. He certainly couldn't give up and die before he had exacted his revenge.

He wanted to use his luck and inner energy to break the chains, but he didn't know what happened. His whole body was stiff and weak, and he couldn't raise any inner energy at all. He had to grope along the wall.

Amid the loud noise, he finally realized that this was a cell with three cold walls and a thick, seamless iron door.

Xie Fu shouted, but the cell seemed very closed and his voice could not get out. It echoed and rang inside the cell like the death knell of hell.

After understanding the environment, Xie Fu did not become impatient, but thought calmly.

If his body recovers, these iron chains and prison cell will not be able to trap him. He was poisoned by the zombie flower but still survived. I think it must be because he has the lifeblood of a divine body.

Let me find a way to recover sooner, and then make plans.

Thinking of this, I began to sit cross-legged and look inward.

After an unknown amount of time, faint footsteps were heard. Xie Fu moved his ears. Although the cell was sealed on all sides, there were still subtle noises from outside that were caught by Xie Fu's keen hearing.

  Two people!

The two stopped at the iron door in front of the cell, and an old voice said, "Your Majesty, he is inside."

Your Majesty? Qin Xiaofu! Yuyang lost!
