Daughter of Hou's Mansion

313 Siblings against each other

Tokyo

The old prince had been in mourning for 49 days, and many people came to pay his respects every day. Even the servants in the concierge of Prince Qin's mansion lost a lot of weight. Of course, Shangguan Jue was the thinnest among them.

Director Bai saw the upright figure kneeling in front of the mourning hall, but after just over a month, the clothes that originally fitted him seemed a bit empty. Even he could not have imagined that the son's affection for the old prince was so deep, and he never saw him drop a single drop. Tears, but he understands that the most sad thing in this world is the son.

Manager Bai let out a long sigh before walking in. First he offered a stick of incense to the old prince before persuading him: "My lord, tomorrow is the day of the funeral. You haven't closed your eyes for a long time. Now there are still a few hours to go and lie on the back for a while."

Shangguan never responded, and Director Bai was secretly helpless, but there was nothing he could do.

Before dawn the next day, Prince Qin's mansion was busy opening again. According to the prince's specifications, the old prince was eligible to enter the imperial mausoleum. The funeral procession was very long. It can be said that all the officials were sent together. The generals who had worked under the old prince's hands all cried bitterly, and even the emperor accompanied them to the city gate.

It wasn't until the funeral procession was out of sight that the emperor let out a long sigh.

"Your Majesty, it's cold outside, please take care of the dragon's body." Eunuch Wang bowed and said.

The emperor's expression changed, and he said, "Go back to the palace!"

The emperor returned to the Chengqian Palace, and fell to the ground as soon as his body became limp. Eunuch Wang was taken aback, only to see the emperor's body shaking into a ball, how could he look like a king of a country with his bent back? .

"Medicine...give me medicine..." The drug addiction became more and more fierce, and now he has to take the drug almost every two hours, and every time the drug addiction occurs, he is extremely embarrassed.

Eunuch Wang didn't dare to delay, he rushed into the inner room and poured five pills from the medicine bottle.

Probably because he was too impatient, when Eunuch Wang came out, he stumbled and tripped, and the pills in his hand scattered all over the floor. Eunuch Wang apologized and was about to go in again to get new pills, but found that the emperor quickly He crawled over and put the pills on the ground into his mouth without being too dirty.

Eunuch Wang has seen the embarrassment of the emperor when he was addicted to drugs several times, but he can't wait like this for a while. He really has never seen it. As a descendant of the Shangguan family, he must learn self-restraint from the first day of his birth. From the age of three, the emperor always got up at Yinshi, no matter whether it was cold or hot, he never showed his preferences, such as dressing habits, eating utensils, etc., since he was five years old.Among the many sons of the first emperor, the emperor was the most tolerant and self-restraint, but now this drug addiction has forced such a self-disciplined person into such a state, which shows the horror of this drug.

After taking all the pills on the ground, the emperor felt that the feeling of scratching his heart and lungs subsided, and was about to get up from the ground when the gate of Chengqian Palace was pushed open.

The emperor was furious, the emperor's self-esteem did not allow others to see his embarrassment, and since he became addicted to drugs, the only person who served him closely was Wang Youde.

"Presumptuous, who allowed you to come in?" The emperor turned his head sharply, because the light in the hall was relatively dark, and the visitor stood at the door against the light, so he couldn't see his face clearly, he could only vaguely see the figure of a woman.

The emperor's angry shout did not frighten the visitor, Wang Youde's face was startled, and he became more and more strange after seeing the visitor clearly, but he was just a eunuch and had some things to say, so he had to go forward to help the emperor up.

Not only did the emperor not kneel down to beg for mercy, but instead he just stared at him steadfastly, the emperor became even more furious and shouted directly: "Drag this blind servant down, and die."

"Why is the emperor so angry?"

The emperor's face was obviously startled, but he saw that the person slowly closed the gate of Chengqian Hall, dressed in gorgeous palace clothes, was none other than Princess Duanmin.

But in an instant, the emperor returned to his usual aloof look, brushed off the dust on his body with a wave of his hand, and said displeasedly: "Why did the imperial sister break into Chengqian Palace without authorization, you know this is a serious crime."

Eunuch Wang helped the emperor to sit down on the dragon chair. Because he had just taken the medicine, the emperor's thin face was flushed abnormally, and his deeply sunken eyes were amazingly bright.

His questioning voice did not taint the slightest fear on Princess Duanmin's face, and a mocking smile gradually appeared on that well-maintained face.

Although the two are siblings, the emperor was tired of drugs during this period, and he looked more than 20 years old, but the elder sister Duan Minchang Princess was still graceful and rich.Although the emperor was sitting on the dragon chair, he was displeased to be looked at by Princess Duanmin with such eyes. He frowned and asked, "What's the matter for the emperor to come to Chengqian Palace?"

"I want to ask the emperor, did the father die of illness or was poisoned to death by you?" Princess Duanmin asked word by word.

The emperor was startled for a moment, but after realizing what Princess Duanmin said, he slapped the table angrily and cursed: "Bold, don't think that you are my own sister, I won't dare to punish you. "

At this moment, Eunuch Wang wished that his ears would become deaf even more. How could he have thought that Princess Duanmin would ask if she would lose her head? She must be too courageous. Could it be that she is not afraid of death? ?Or is she relying on something?

Eunuch Wang was in a state of confusion, always feeling that the development of the situation had far exceeded his expectations.

Princess Duanmin was not intimidated by the emperor's words at all. Instead, she walked slowly towards the emperor step by step. Her face was calm, and her deep eyes seemed to be filled with pity. What was she pitying, pity him, the emperor? ?An inexplicable panic welled up in the emperor's heart. He had never been very close to Princess Duanmin, but the two were brothers and sisters of the same mother after all. He asked himself that he had never done anything wrong to her after he ascended the throne. Why did she do this? look.

"Come here, come here..." Seeing Princess Duanmin approaching step by step, the emperor raised his voice and shouted.

Wang Youde's body was shaken, and he rushed forward, stopped in front of Princess Duanmin, and said, "Princess, what are you doing? Offending a holy face is a serious crime of beheading."

Princess Duanmin's eyes fell on Wang Youde's body, the coldness made Wang Youde's heart shudder, and what she said in the next moment made Wang Youde's knees even weaker.

"Wang Youde, you are really loyal, but if Jiang Yuan is here today, will you be on the emperor's side or Jiang Yuan's side?"

Wang Youde thought that he was very secretive about taking refuge in Kunning Palace, at least the emperor had never doubted him, but Princess Duanmin seemed to have known about it for a long time, Wang Youde felt more and more uneasy, and his face The blood color on his face faded away all of a sudden, and his bent body trembled slightly.

The emperor's complexion turned extremely ugly. Wang Youde's performance had already made him understand that Princess Duanmin's words were not groundless. His most confidant subordinates had already recognized other masters before he knew it. But he didn't realize that this slap completely disfigured him, the emperor.

The emperor trembled with anger, and immediately shouted: "Wang Youde!"

Wang Youde trembled heavily. The emperor had accumulated prestige in his mind for a long time. At this moment, the emperor was already furious with thunder. Wang Youde's knees suddenly softened, and he prostrated heavily on the ground, begging for mercy repeatedly: "Your Majesty, please forgive me! Forgive me!"

This gesture was self-inflicted, the emperor's face was ashen, his chest heaved violently, but it seemed that there was such a lively stalk in his chest that made him speechless.

Princess Duanmin couldn't help shaking her head and said: "This is unbearable, and what happens next will piss you off."

The emperor's eyes widened. At this moment, he still didn't understand. Princess Duanmin did it on purpose. The guards outside the Chengqian Hall were taken away. Princess Duanmin was alone. How can there be such a great ability.

Of course, the emperor couldn't figure it out even more, what is Princess Duanmin doing?If he is mad at him, what good does she have? In terms of closeness, they are brothers and sisters. As long as he is in power for a day, she can protect her glory and wealth. Even if she is not angry with what she did to her father, but this Everything has already happened. If she is smart enough, she should hide it instead of revealing it like this. Even if he really dies, the one who ascends the throne will be his son, and the blood relationship will be weakened. When the time comes, she will How could this eldest princess still have such a status now.

Although the emperor was short of breath, his mind was still very clear. Now the guards outside have not come in for a long time, apparently controlled by Princess Duanmin. He wanted to stabilize her first, so he took a deep breath and said: "The emperor Sister, do you have something to say well? We are brothers and sisters of the same mother, so if there is something you don't understand in your heart, it's fine to say it. "

When Princess Duanmin saw the emperor, she recovered from her anger in an instant, and started to play the family card, her heart became more and more contemptuous, and she sneered, "I don't understand why I have a brother like you. I have not only killed my father, but also instigated the ministers under him to kill my father. Today is the day of the emperor's uncle's funeral. I heard that the emperor even sent it to him. I don't know if the emperor felt guilty when he faced the emperor's uncle's coffin. The subjects of Great Xia knew that their good emperor had instigated and killed the patron saint of Great Xia. I don’t know if they will support you, and Shangguan Jue. I often heard my mother say that you regard Shangguan Jue as your own son. If you let him know that you killed his grandfather, will he hate you?"

Every time Princess Duanmin said a word, the emperor's face became even uglier. He didn't expect that Princess Duanmin would know all his secrets.
