I, the prince, only want to be deposed.

Chapter 200 The most vicious curse in the world!
Is Chen Ajiao dead?
When hearing the news, Liu Ju was also slightly stunned.

The birth and death dates of Chen Ajiao are not recorded in history books. Later historians could only speculate based on some historical materials that she died between the first year of Yuanding and the third year of Yuanfeng.

And now is exactly within this time period, which is in line with the historical trajectory.

It’s just that the news of Chen Ajiao’s death came at a very bad time, or it could be said that the eunuch Chang Rong came at a very bad time…

Because the atmosphere and emotions just now were already quite right.

If Chang Rong had not appeared, or had appeared just a few seconds later, Liu Che would have been able to finish the words he had only said halfway.

Moreover, even if Liu Ju used his toes to guess, he could still guess it.

Liu Che’s next words will be extremely crucial.

He did not directly order the removal of the crown prince;

There was a major reversal that fulfilled his wish and allowed him to decide on this marriage on his own!
Liu Ju believed that the second possibility was definitely the case. After all, he had verified it countless times before, and the loophole of "time travel blessing" was invincible. The more this situation happened, the less likely Liu Che would depose him, and an unexpected major reversal would definitely occur.

Don’t you see that those Confucian scholars of the Imperial Academy and the virtuous and talented writers who were about to be pardoned were all thrown into the imperial prison again just because of his words “Please, father, depose me, Your Majesty”?

This happened just a cup of tea ago. What is there to doubt?

and so……

It’s all Chang Rong’s fault, that bastard!

It’s bad enough that this bastard in the history books attacked me and tried to sow discord between me and him, but now he’s ruining my own business at the critical moment!

Just wait, you bastard!
Don't give me the chance, or I will send you away immediately!

As for this Chen Ajiao...she died in the early morning, not suddenly died now. Liu Ju naturally would not think that this matter had anything to do with his "time-travel blessing" loophole.

In addition, Chen Ajiao's mother, Empress Dou, had harmed his uncle Wei Qing. Chen Ajiao herself had also excluded his mother, Wei Zifu, and used witchcraft to curse Wei Zifu. She must have also made a wish to curse him to die young.

Liu Ju naturally had no good impression of this deposed queen, but now that she was dead, there was nothing to worry about...

Just as Liu Ju was thinking this.

"Show it to me!"

There wasn't much expression on Liu Che's face, he just shouted at Chang Rong in a dull voice.

"promise."

Chang Rong naturally didn't dare to say anything more. He quickly walked forward with his head down and took small steps. He carefully presented the scroll and the little puppet to Liu Che.

at the same time.

He did not forget to secretly glance at Liu Ju, but saw that although the hostility in Liu Che's eyes had weakened a lot after learning the news, hostility was rising in Liu Ju's eyes when he looked at him at this moment.

"?!"

Chang Rong felt uneasy again when he saw this, and quickly lowered his head even lower.

Could it be that Liu Ju knew about some of the things he had done before?

But what was the outcome of this "debate on deposing and enthroning the crown prince"?

According to common sense, as long as the emperor decides to hold the "debating and enthroning of the crown prince", he has basically made up his mind to depose the crown prince, and this court meeting is usually just a formality, just to gain legitimacy.

So, Liu Ju will definitely be deposed this time, right?
That is probably why Liu Ju hates me so much at this moment. Is he taking his anger out on me because he knows the situation is hopeless?

So what do I have to worry about?
The situation of a deposed crown prince is often even worse than that of a deposed empress. What can he do to me?
That’s right, now that the deposed Queen Chen has died, the Changmen Palace has just been vacated. Isn’t this a coincidence? Your Majesty can just let Liu Ju move in, and you don’t have to bother choosing a place for house arrest.

This must be God’s will! It must be God’s will!

at the same time.

Liu Che first took the little puppet wearing exquisite floral clothes.

The Pinocchio puppet is very delicately made. Although its nose and eyes are not lifelike, its facial features are very distinct. And judging from its hair and body shape, it should be a little boy.

Liu Che just took a quick look and then tore off the floral clothes on the puppet, revealing the wooden body underneath.

Then he simply turned the puppet over and looked at its back.

I saw a row of words engraved on the back of the puppet, which read from top to bottom:
——[Son of Liu Zhi]!
"..."

Liu Che's pupils shrank and he felt a mixture of emotions.

No one knew, and no one could understand, that his feelings for Chen Ajiao were actually extremely complicated.

Of course I like it, at least I used to like it.

Otherwise, how could he have been the only one favored for so many years?

In addition, Chen Ajiao and her mother Empress Dou had made great contributions to the emperor. At least in the beginning, Liu Che was grateful to her and there could not be no place for her in his heart.

But after Chen Ajiao became the queen, she became arrogant and jealous because she couldn't get pregnant for many years. She prevented him from contacting other concubines, kept trying to commit suicide, and summoned witches into the palace to perform witchcraft to frame the concubine who finally got pregnant with the dragon seed. She even ordered the witches to dress up as men and live with him as a couple...

These absurd actions one after another finally exhausted all of Liu Che's patience.

Perhaps the purpose of Chen Ajiao's behavior was just to win favor, but for Liu Che, she did these things to make him have no descendants and to make the Liu family of the Han Dynasty have no descendants!
Even Liu Che did not have his eldest son Liu Ju until he was 29 years old, which led to the unstable situation in the court. This was also related to Chen Ajiao's previous misdeeds. These things undoubtedly touched Liu Che's bottom line.

Therefore, when he destroyed Chen Ajiao, there was only resentment and dissatisfaction left in his heart. The initial love he had for her had long been devoured, and he could no longer muster a trace of love, not even a trace of pity.

But now, at the moment of hearing the news of Chen Ajiao's death, the memories of the past quietly attacked him again...

In fact, Liu Che was not a person who held grudges, because if he had a grudge, he would take revenge on the spot.

Therefore, when facing many people or things, he is more open-minded than ordinary people. Just as Chen Ajiao is dead now, many past events can be written off for him.

"Speaking of which, she is also a pitiful woman..."

When Liu Che saw the words behind the puppet, a thought flashed through his mind:
"Although she did many wrong things in her life, I am not to blame for her fate. But even before her death, she still hoped to give birth to a child for me. This was her obsession."

"Perhaps all the things that happened before were the result of this obsession and madness?"

Liu Che let out a silent sigh, then gently placed the little puppet on the table beside him and slowly opened the scroll.

That was the suicide note left by Chen Ajiao...

"What would Chen Ajiao say to Liu Che before she died?"

Liu Ju was also somewhat curious about the contents of Chen Ajiao's suicide note, but Liu Che did not let him see it, and he could not force himself to read it, so he could only guess secretly in his heart.

It only took two breaths.

"Shh!"

Liu Che's face suddenly changed, and he tore the scroll into pieces and threw it out with great force, as if the scroll was a red-hot iron that would burn his hand if he hesitated for a moment.
"Crazy! This woman is crazy!"

Along with this curse, bamboo pieces scattered all over the ground.

Some of the bamboo pieces are facing up, and some are facing down.

Liu Ju and Chang Rong were both startled and looked quickly towards the bamboo strips.

However, the words on the bamboo slips facing up were written with either cinnabar or blood, revealing a scarlet color that made people feel uncomfortable.

Moreover, the handwriting was not the neat seal script commonly used today.

It is more like the cursive script which had not yet appeared in this era, with its flying dragons and phoenixes and unrestrained strokes, giving people the feeling that the writer is extremely mentally unstable.

As for the above content, because Liu Che threw it a little far away, it revealed some disordered and vague words, making it impossible for Liu Ju and Chang Rong to even make out a rough idea.

at the same time.

"Snapped!"

The small wooden puppet that Liu Che had previously placed on the table was also touched during this process and fell to the ground with a noise.

Liu Che, Liu Ju and Chang Rong all looked in the direction of the voice.

This fall actually broke the little puppet into pieces.

There was a crack in the torso, revealing the hollow interior, and inside was actually a ball of yellow cloth with some mottled red marks on it.

"His Majesty……"

Seeing this, Chang Rong was about to bend down to take it.

"Get out!"

Liu Che suddenly shouted loudly, bent down, took out the yellow cloth from the puppet's torso, turned around to avoid Liu Ju and Chang Rong, and spread it out to check the contents.

There were a few rows of small red characters written on the yellow cloth:
"The crown prince was disobedient, the prince died young, the father and son turned against each other, and he died alone!"

"A grudge... a witch... an evil woman!"

At this moment, Liu Che was trembling with anger, and every word he said seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.

The suicide note of Chen Ajiao that he had torn up before expressed her resentment towards him and Wei Zifu. Every word in the letter was filled with hatred, and she cursed him, the emperor, to pieces. Vulgar words were used one after another, without any respect or fear at all.

But now, the yellow cloth hidden in the puppet is the most vicious curse in the world!

At this moment he finally understood.

The four words [Son of Liu Zhu] behind the puppet are not Chen Ajiao's obsession to give birth to a dragon son for him, but a curse on Liu Ju and all his princes, cursing him to have no descendants and to live out his life in loneliness!
Liu Che suddenly turned around and looked at Liu Ju who was confused.

"?!"

Liu Ju looked doubtful. Could it be that this puppet was related to him?

At this moment, Liu Che suddenly felt relieved.

He got it!

He should have thought of it earlier. The reason why Liu Ju's temperament suddenly changed more than a year ago, from an obedient and gentle son to a rebellious son who didn't know how to advance or retreat, was because of this!

He was just cursed by Chen Ajiao and had no choice!
I wronged him!
If I really depose him for this reason, I would be fulfilling the wish of this evil woman!

Fortunately, this suicide note and the puppet were delivered in time, otherwise I would have almost made a big mistake!
