Chapter 263: The Emperor passed away, and Concubine De committed suicide
The new emperor Zhao Yi looked at his seventh brother's hurriedly leaving back and sighed in his heart: "I hope my seventh brother is really willing to drive her away!"

"Yier is worried that Xiaoqi will be bewitched by the daughter of the Wen family?" The emperor asked with relief as he sat up.

“Father, my eldest brother has been bewitched by that woman. How can my younger brother not be bewitched by her…” The new emperor hesitated to speak.

"Yier, you didn't disappoint your father. Even as an emperor, you still treat Xiaoqi with sincerity.

But everyone has a different destiny. There are some things that are useless even if you worry about them to death!"

"My son, I am sorry to have embarrassed you. Is Yi considered indecisive?" the new emperor asked with a frown.

The Emperor shook his head and smiled, "No, I have always taught you that small matters should be handled with style, and big matters should be handled with principles. As long as you don't make mistakes in big matters, it will be fine.

I am old and cannot care about the grudges and disputes between you young people. I just hope that Yier can manage the Zhao family's kingdom well.

Let the people live and work in peace and contentment, and let the remaining few live happily for the rest of their lives."

The words of the retired emperor made the new emperor fall into deep thought. He suddenly realized that his father had high expectations of him, and he didn't know how to respond.

He can't even guarantee whether he will be happy in the second half of his life, let alone his brothers!

He could only promise that unless they hurt him, he would never hurt them first.

"Yier, you are my favorite prince, and now you are the ruler of a country. I will teach you everything I have learned in my life. I only hope that you can avoid taking detours in the future."

"Don't worry, father. I will always remember your teachings."

"Yier, five years ago, Xiao Jin defeated the talented young general who suddenly emerged from Beidi and sent him back to his hometown.

I thought we could have a few years of peaceful coexistence, but after only three years, the Northern Di were ready to make a move again. At that time, Xiao Jin was injured and could not go to the battlefield.

When war broke out again on the northern border, I asked you to take charge of the situation because I didn't want the military power to fall into the hands of people with evil intentions.

Fortunately, Xiao Jin was able to go to the battlefield again. It only took him two months to repel the Northern Di and occupy two Northern Di cities.

Yier, tell me the truth, do you think Xiao Jin is better than you? Is he a thorn in your heart? "

"No, my cousin from the Xiao family said that he is my son's most powerful support. I will never doubt him. Moreover, Madam Xiao also offered a miraculous medicine to cure my father."

"From what Yi'er said, Xiao Jin is the person you trust the most. Then, you don't trust the other generals who guard the border that much?"

"Father, how can you think of your son like this?" the new emperor said with a red face.

In fact, he felt a little guilty. Not long after he took the throne, he had thought about confiscating the military command of the Lu family army in a few years.

After all, the Lu family is the Third Prince’s maternal family, and the Third Prince has three sons, so you never know if he will have any bad intentions one day.

He has not yet thought carefully about how to confiscate the money, thinking that it is a matter of several years in the future and it is too early for him to think about it now.

But he did have this thought, even if it was only for a moment, he could not deny it.

Deep down in his heart, he only trusts his cousin Xiao Jin, who will be his strong support.

If one day Xiao Jin betrayed him, that would be his destined disaster, meaning that it was time for him to die.

The new emperor was a little excited. His father had always despised kings who abandoned their rulers, and he didn't want to be that kind of king!

No one knows a son better than his father. Moreover, the emperor only likes Defei and her son, and usually pays more attention to Zhao Yi than to his other sons.

The retired emperor once again felt that his decision to support Yier was the right one, and that the Great Sheng Dynasty would definitely be better off in Yier's hands.

He looked at Zhao Yi with longing and said, "Yier, this time your father and your mother left the palace in a desperate attempt to escape. We will never meet again in this life. In the future, you should listen to your mother's words. The person you choose for your bed is very important.

Sometimes sincerity may not be reciprocated with sincerity. You should not have the intention to harm others, but you should always be on guard against others.

When you suspect that your subjects have rebellious intentions, you must investigate repeatedly to make sure not to wrongly accuse good people, but also not to let bad people off the hook.

If the king has a righteous heart, his ministers will not be too crooked. For example, if different kinds of vegetables are pickled in the same jar over time, they will all have the same taste.

The same principle applies when people interact with each other. If you extend a helping hand to someone with negative energy, you will be inviting disaster upon yourself.

Using your energy to feed others is tantamount to asking for trouble.

They will cling to you like leeches, slowly sucking away your energy and making you as decadent and depraved as they are.

When you encounter a minister who is not motivated, you must withdraw yourself from him in time, so that you can protect your energy and not be controlled by others. Similarly..."

The retired emperor told Zhao Yi a lot of experiences he had accumulated over most of his life.

The new emperor looked at his father with eyes full of admiration, and he listened carefully to the retired emperor's teachings.

Many years later, the middle-aged emperor with a large number of children would often recall his father's teachings before he left!

Wen Qingwan happened to hear the conversation between the retired emperor and the new emperor. She originally wanted to find out why Wen Mingzhu left the clan house.

She didn't expect to hear the emperor teaching his son, and the content was so explosive, which made her feel relieved.

In particular, the new emperor said in his heart that if her husband betrayed him, the new emperor said that it was his fate, not Xiao Jin's fault.

Wen Qingwan did not expect such a result. Her previous preparations turned out to be unnecessary.

Ten days later, the retired emperor suddenly passed away, and Concubine De also committed suicide for love.

When the retired emperor passed away, wailing sounds were heard in the palace and the entire Dasheng Dynasty was immersed in sorrow.

The atmosphere in the palace was solemn and depressing, and every corner was filled with a heavy atmosphere of sadness.

The passing of the retired emperor is not just the passing of a person, but the end of an era.

The Queen Mother and the concubines were so sad that they could not control themselves. Their faces were pale and their eyes were filled with tears. The whole world stood still in the gloom.

But they did not have the courage to do as Concubine De did and end her life with a three-foot white silk to commit suicide with the retired emperor.

When Wen Mingzhu heard the news of the death of the retired emperor, she was eating heartily at Zui Xiang Lou.

The Seventh Prince was soft-hearted after all, and when he drove Wen Mingzhu out of the Prince's Mansion, he still gave her a large sum of silver.

If she lives frugally, Wen Mingzhu will not starve to death in the rest of her life.

Unfortunately, Wen Mingzhu is not a money-saving person. She lives in the best room in Zui Xiang Lou and eats the most expensive meals.

She was not shocked at all when she heard the news that the Emperor had passed away and Concubine De committed suicide for love.

He even said madly, "Why are you so surprised? I already knew that Concubine De would commit suicide for love, but the old emperor died earlier in this life."

"Who is that woman? Is she crazy?" a diner asked the diner at the next table curiously.
