After reading the whole family's minds, the eldest daughter awakened
Chapter 165 The ambitions of the Murong family
Such a big thing happened in the harem, and the ministers of the previous dynasty soon knew about it.
Emperor Dongzhou was kind and did not implicate Wanbi's family because of her mistakes.
The eighth prince is now being raised by the queen. Wanbi's father is also very wise and takes the initiative to retire and return to his hometown. Leaving this place of right and wrong can at least save the lives of the whole family.
When the fifth prince Chu Jinren was listening to Chu Wangchen's lecture on the art of war, he became distracted ten times in half an hour.
Chu Wangchen put down the book, "Fifth Emperor Brother, do you have something on your mind?"
"Brother Sanhuang, I'm sorry. I'm feeling a little uneasy today. What happened to Concubine Wan makes me scared. If this matter is not investigated clearly, my mother-in-law will end up like Concubine Wan.
This kind of power struggle has never been what I want. I don't want myself and my mother to become victims of the power struggle.
Brother Three Emperors, I know you are capable. I surrender to you. The Prime Minister's Office and I support you. I only ask that after you ascend the throne of God, you can grant me a fief and allow my mother and concubine to accompany me. "
Chu Jinren's eyes were sincere, and Chu Wangchen knew that he was not lying.
"Okay, I promise you." Chu Wangchen rarely makes promises to others, because he must do what he says.
"Thank you, Brother Sanhuang. Whatever you need me to do now, just ask me."
"What you have to do now is to study hard with me. When my father tests you, you will be able to answer questions fluently."
Chu Jinren rubbed his temples with a headache, "I'm really not interested in these things. I'm good at playing the piano and writing poems. This is really not my strong point."
"You have to memorize things by rote." The time has not come yet, and some scenes have to continue to be performed.
"Yes, Brother Sanhuang, I understand."
Sure enough, as Chu Wangchen expected, Emperor Dongzhou would ask Chu Jinren several questions from time to time. Fortunately, Chu Wangchen had predicted these questions in advance and had already learned them all by heart.
Emperor Dongzhou was very satisfied with Chu Jinren and even praised him in front of the ministers, which made the General's Mansion and Queen Murong panic.
Three days later it was Emperor Dongzhou's birthday, and Chu Wangchen had already begun preparations to hold a grand birthday banquet for Emperor Dongzhou.
On the day of the birthday banquet, the entire banquet hall was newly decorated, and the wine, food, singing and dancing were all the best. Emperor Dongzhou was very satisfied with this, and for the first time he praised Chu Wangchen in front of everyone.
Looking at the graceful dancing of the dancers, Emperor Dongzhou suddenly mentioned Li Youwei.
"Prince, you are responsible for receiving the envoys from Nanchen Kingdom. Why do you think they disappeared out of thin air? Should you give me an explanation?"
"Back to my father, I have already investigated clearly. The queen mother summoned General Li a few days ago. After she left the palace, she took her people out of the city overnight."
"Why did General Lee do this?"
Not only Emperor Dongzhou was puzzled, but everyone else's eyes were full of doubts.
Chu Wangchen shook his head, "That's unknown. Maybe the Queen Mother will know something."
The fact that the eldest prince was stupid was not made public. Although the ministers heard some rumors, they did not dare to spread the news.
If he wanted to preserve the reputation of Queen Murong and Chu Jinhong, Emperor Dongzhou would not continue to pursue this matter.
As expected, Emperor Dongzhou no longer continued this topic, but raised a glass for everyone to drink together.
Empress Murong glanced at Chu Wangchen and drank the fruit wine in the cup with her sleeves.
Emperor Dongzhou might be happy, but by the time the birthday banquet was over, he had already drunk too much.
"Your Majesty, I will help you back to Yangxin Palace."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Zitong." "Your Majesty, this is what a concubine should do."
The queen helped Emperor Dongzhou leave, and other ministers also left one after another, with Chu Wangchen and Chu Jinren at the rear.
"Brother Third Emperor, Murong Ye, who has been claiming to be ill, sneaked into the palace and has now taken people to the direction of the Yangxin Palace."
Chu Jinren reported to Chu Wangchen in a low voice.
"Well, it's time to close the net."
Chu Wangchen has been waiting for so long, and today it will finally come to an end.
In the Yangxin Hall, Queen Murong was wiping Emperor Dongzhou's face with a warm handkerchief, "Your Majesty, you really drank too much today."
"I'm happy. Don't worry, Zitong. No matter who becomes the prince in the end, they will all be your children."
Emperor Dongzhou was afraid that Empress Murong would think too much, so he even comforted her with words. This was true love for the emperor.
Queen Murong was so moved that her eyes blurred, "Your Majesty, you are so kind to me, but..."
"What's wrong?" Emperor Dongzhou was slightly displeased. Although Empress Murong was always favored, she always knew how to be sensible and grateful. Was she going to disobey him today?
Queen Murong turned to look behind her. Murong Ye and Murong Detuo had already walked around the screen.
Emperor Dongzhou followed Queen Murong's gaze and saw Murong Detuo, who had a sword at his waist, following Murong Ye towards his dragon bed.
Half awake from the wine, Emperor Dongzhou grabbed Empress Murong's wrist and said, "How did the two of them get in without being informed? Murong Detuo is actually wearing a sword. Where are the imperial guards?"
"Your Majesty, please stop shouting. The entire Yangxin Palace is now under our control. As long as you cooperate, we will not harm your life." Murong Detuo's voice sounded like a villain.
Emperor Dongzhou glanced at the sword at Murong Detuo's waist again, and the hand he was holding on to Queen Murong's wrist was changed to squeezing her neck.
"Your Majesty, cough, cough, I can't breathe, please don't be impulsive, I will die." Empress Murong begged in a hoarse voice.
“Bitch, you planned all this tonight, right?
I love you and respect you so much. Is this how you repay me? "
When the word love was mentioned, Empress Murong smiled coldly, "Your Majesty, you once promised me that we would be together for the rest of our lives, but later on, there were more and more women in the harem. From then on, I knew that your Love is too cheap.
At that time, I was thinking, you can't help it, as long as you are nice to me and Hiro.
But what did you do? You ordered Gu Suyue to poison Ahong, making him a fool and killing my last trace of tenderness for you.
Since you don't care about the relationship between husband and wife, why should I care? You don't have to be the king of Dongzhou. "
"You poisonous woman, it was not my fault that Chu Jinhong became a fool, it was your greed that killed him, and you are the culprit.
I have promised you that no matter who takes the throne in the future, you will be an unparalleled empress dowager. Why are you still not satisfied? "
"How could it be the same? If Chu Jinren comes to power, the Prime Minister's Mansion will ultimately benefit. Our Murong family will be suppressed and killed, and that bitch Qin Yingying will step on my head."
"Murong Defeng, I really didn't expect you to be so narrow-minded. The imperial concubine never fights for anything. I want to make Jinren the crown prince, and she is strongly opposed to it. Why can't you learn from her?"
"Shut up, I am the queen of a country, and she is just a concubine. How can I learn from her."
"Sister, Your Majesty is tired. Don't talk to him so much. Let him write the Zen edict quickly."
Murong Detuo urged with great patience.
Murong Ye looked apologetic, "Your Majesty, I don't want to do this, but for the sake of the Murong family's century-old foundation, I have to go to this step."
"You ambitious Murong Ye, stop talking so high-sounding. In fact, your Murong family just wants to rebel."
