Be good, call me uncle

Chapter 1125 Talking to him is like playing the piano to an ox

Eunuch Lu knelt down in front of Emperor Yuanwu with a plop.

He lowered his head, his face was calm, and he looked like he was totally willing to give up.

Then, he slowly took out a small bottle from his arms and respectfully handed it to Emperor Yuanwu: "Your Majesty, please punish me."

Baili Wuxiang grabbed the small bottle and quickly killed the poisonous insects inside.

He pointed at Eunuch Lu and cursed: "You black-hearted thing, this poison can kill people. You actually used such a poisonous poison on His Majesty. Do you want to kill the king? You should be cut into pieces!"

Emperor Yuanwu waved his hand: "Uncle Emperor, Ming Yong, Mr. Baili, I have something to say to Lu Xing alone. You should step aside first."

Lu Mingyong was worried about Emperor Yuanwu's safety, but Changsun Tao winked at him and said there was no need to worry.

After the three people left, Emperor Yuanwu sat back at the desk, leaned on the chair tiredly, crossed his hands on his legs: "I know you don't want my life, tell me, what is the reason for you to do this? "

Eunuch Lu suddenly raised his eyes with tears in his eyes: "Your Majesty, I just don't want you to be bewitched by that witch! But I don't know that the poison can kill people, Your Majesty, I have no intention of regicide."

It turns out that this is indeed a game set against Lan Lingling.

Eunuch Lu has been following Emperor Yuanwu for many years. He has no children or relatives, and has already devoted all his emotions to this master.

He didn't like Lan Lingling from the beginning.

Like those ministers who opposed the appointment of Lan Lingling as queen, he believed that Lan Lingling was not worthy of Emperor Yuanwu at all.

Nothing more than aliens!The key is that he doesn't understand the rules and general principles, he doesn't know anything about music, chess, calligraphy and painting, he can't even speak the Daqin dialect, and he's not very beautiful.

How could such a woman be worthy of being the pride of heaven?

That's why he buried the poison around Chengming Hall, and ordered his godson who he secretly accepted to deliberately lure Lan Lingling to the place where the poison was buried, in order to let the guards catch her and "take the stolen goods."

He was worried that Lan Lingling would not be fooled, and deliberately asked his godson to imitate King Wu.

Emperor Yuanwu's cronies were all under his command. When Lan Lingling entered the palace, he received the news, so he immediately asked his godson to follow Lan Lingling. Only then did Lan Lingling see the mysterious thing from the Queen Mother and Yuzhen. People matter.

Then, he ordered his godson to lead Lan Lingling to Chengming Hall when Lan Lingling left to leave the palace.

Everything was like this. He thought it was perfect, but he didn't expect that His Highness Taishu and Duke Yue would discover the clues so quickly.

Emperor Yuanwu's voice was a little desolate: "Lu Xing, I have always regarded you as someone close to me. I thought you supported me and understood me regarding Lingling. However, I didn't expect that you are just like those pedantic old stubborns." .”

"The witch you keep talking about saved my life, and she almost died for me. You don't know these things. How can you hurt the person I love deeply? You regard hurting me as more important than your own life." people?"

Eunuch Lu sobbed: "Your Majesty! You are the most noble being in the world. She, a little girl from southern Xinjiang, can die for His Majesty. Even if she dies, it will be an honor!"

When Emperor Yuanwu saw that Eunuch Lu had such thoughts, he was too lazy to waste time talking to Eunuch Lu. He sighed and asked, "Where did the poison come from? You don't understand these things." Eunuch Lu shook his head: "I can't explain."

Emperor Yuanwu took a deep breath: "You can't say that? You actually protected someone who wanted my life, and you even claimed that you were dealing with Zhizhi for my own good? In my opinion, it was you who wanted my life!"

Eunuch Lu defended in fear: "Your Majesty, this slave never meant to harm Your Majesty. When the man gave the poison to me, she said it was a love poison, a method used by women in southern Xinjiang to confuse men."

"My slave wanted to prove Miss Lingling's accusation of seducing the monarch, so I dared to use this Gu... I really didn't know that it would kill someone! I really never thought about killing Your Majesty."

Emperor Yuanwu said calmly: "I have said that I believe you will not harm my life."

Eunuch Lu's voice was hoarse: "Your Majesty..."

Emperor Yuanwu said: "Although you and I are master and servant, you took care of me and brought me up. I am sick and in pain, and you feel sorry for me more than anyone else."

"Once I had a high fever, and you stayed with me for several days and nights without any clothes on. Later, I heard that the gods in the mountain temple on the outskirts of the city were very efficacious. You took three steps and kowtowed, and knelt from the palace to the outskirts of the city, asking the mountain gods to bless me."

"Because of this, your head was bruised and bloody, and you still have a large scar on your forehead! Your knees are also bleeding, because it was too serious and the root of the disease was caused. Every cold and rainy day, you always have knee pain."

"I keep these things in my heart, and I will never forget them. Later, when I grew up, my grandfather and mother began to teach me to fight for the throne, and my eldest brother and I had an earth-shaking fight."

"But in fact, I don't care about the throne. I didn't care about it from the beginning. I fought for it just to make my mother happy, and to get her care and praise!"

"I was born with good clothes and good food, and enjoy blessings that ordinary people don't have. But in fact, I am very lonely in my heart. I have always longed to be loved and cared for. And you are the one who cares for me as a relative."

"The care I get from you here is never less than that from my mother, so even though I don't say it, I remember your kindness in my heart."

"However, this time, I am very disappointed and sad. You are so kind to me, but you are instigated by others to harm me. Who can I trust? Lu Xing, you make me so sad."

Eunuch Lu burst into tears: "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. I know I was wrong. Please punish me severely and let me die to apologize!"

Seeing that Eunuch Lu kept silent about the person who poisoned him, Emperor Yuanwu added: "Actually, I can probably guess who it is, but I just want to confirm it with you..."

"Who else can make you keep quiet until death? Who else but them? I know you don't want to make me sad. In fact, I still can't accept it. They would do such a cruel thing to me."

"Now that the crown prince has been decided, they still don't give up. If I die, the one who takes the throne will only be the emperor's uncle who is the heart of all people, and definitely not the fifth brother she raised under her knees."

Eunuch Lu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, even though the Queen Mother has all kinds of faults, her pity for her son is astonishing. She also thought about you, so she discussed with the slaves and dealt with Miss Lingling."

So that's it, it's really them.

Emperor Yuanwu was filled with sorrow.

Why is it always the people closest to him who hurt him?
"Fart!" Emperor Yuanwu was furious and couldn't restrain himself from swearing, "You people, under the pretext of doing my best, go to satisfy your selfish desires, but in fact you have unsatisfied desires!"
