A Poisonous Woman from a Good Story

Chapter 294 The Adoptive Prince

Zhuang Chengrong didn't think so, and sneered: "Why should I explain to the subjects of the world? They are the best to dismiss. As long as they are fed and clothed, they won't bother to care about the affairs above. As for the name behind them, I don't know anyone else." Anyway, let’s not worry about that, besides, my reputation has long been bad, and I’m afraid that someone will add another one? If I’m looking forward and backward like this every day, what’s the point of living.”

The Supreme Emperor saw that Zhuang Chengrong refused to enter, and said helplessly: "I have already discussed this matter with the royal family. If there is such a clan wife in the Zhuang family, not only the ancestors will be ashamed, but also the children and grandchildren will be disgraced."

"If the ancestors have spirits on earth, they will naturally understand the queen's grievances and don't care about them. If they don't work, hehe, it's useless to say anything." Zhuang Chengrong retorted, and then smiled: "How much did the great grandfather lose when he conquered the world that day? Those with close bloodlines should be satisfied with a noble title in the remote branches of the Outer Eight Routes, and they come here to pretend to be elders, and they don’t look in the mirror to see if they are worthy of discussing the matter of my Empress Daqi!"

The Supreme Emperor blushed with anger, and said: "Even if they are not worthy, you still have a few elder brothers, how can your good queen convince everyone?"

Zhuang Chengrong smiled when he heard the words, but his eyes were cold, and he said with a smile: "In that case, let's kill them all. In this way, only my lineage will be passed on. Who dares to say that their ancestors are wrong? It’s too late to cover up her beauty for the queen.”

When Zhuang Chengrong said this, he couldn't help clapping his hands for his own idea: "It just so happens that I am the youngest and least worthy of ascending the throne. In this way, there is no one left for the throne."

The Supreme Emperor broke into a cold sweat.Said: "You can't do this, they are your brothers and sisters."

Zhuang Chengrong looked at the Supreme Emperor and sneered and said: "You are always at home all day long, and you can always force me to that day. After all, I am one body with the queen and his wife, and we are both prosperous and damaged. If there is something wrong with her, I can still do it." Is there a good thing? If I’m not good, they can’t take the opportunity to come up, and then my life will be over. It’s better to strike first.”

The Supreme Emperor was so angry that he pointed at Zhuang Chengrong and scolded: "You beast! Why did I go blind and give you the throne!"

Zhuang Chengrong slapped the Supreme Emperor's hand and said with a sneer, "You don't have to speak so nicely. It was just to make a face for each other that day. If you don't let me, then I can't be the emperor. You know that at that time I But I have controlled the entire capital, and now even the imperial palace is under my sole control. I hope you can do it yourself, or you will really annoy me. I will kill any father and son who are not father and son. I think in the current form Let's see. It's better for us to maintain the appearance of fatherly kindness and filial piety, anyway, I'm not afraid of good or bad reputation."

Zhuang Chengrong sternly ordered to the people below: "The Supreme Emperor is not in good health. It's because the previous servants didn't take good care of them, and all of them were kicked out. Let Manager Cheng choose some people, and after the Supreme Emperor, you don't have to go out of the palace. No one is allowed to visit, so as not to disturb his rest."

After all, I no longer look at the Taishanghuang whose face is purple with anger.Zhuang Chengrong walked away.

Back in the bedroom, Zhuang Chengrong told Shen Qiujun the whole story.When Shen Qiujun heard the words of abolishing the prince, he was so angry that he could not speak, but his resentment towards the Supreme Emperor disappeared a lot.

Seeing that Zhuang Chengrong did not act recklessly to kill his father and king, Shen Qiujun was really relieved. Moreover, now that the Supreme Emperor is officially under house arrest by Zhuang Chengrong, he is like a tiger without teeth. Zhuang Chengrong was charged with killing his father.

Hearing that Zhuang Chengrong seemed to have murderous intentions towards his elder brothers, Shen Qiujun hurriedly said: "Brother Sanhuang has a good relationship with you, and brother Sihuang is cold-tempered and not close to you, but he doesn't have too much trouble with you , As for Brother Wuhuang, although he embarrassed you several times when he was young, his maternal ancestor, the Jiang family, assisted you a lot in winning the throne, and now there are still many places where the Jiang family is used outside the capital. Not to mention these things, no matter what they think in their hearts now, at least they are surrendering to you on the surface, and if you want to kill them, you will be born out of nowhere, and you will get a bad name of cruelty and tyranny."

Zhuang Chengrong said with a smile: "Isn't it better to make people in the world afraid to have other thoughts? Although I have won the title of tyrant, as long as Song'er is a little more kind, I will be an immortal emperor. It will be passed down steadily.”

Seeing that Zhuang Chengrong was joking, Shen Qiujun also smiled and said: "Of course not. How can a country built under violence be stable? Besides, future generations will rarely be taboo for the venerable, and the dirty water will probably be poured on me by then. Well, it’s still not a bad thing for a beauty, I’m afraid that even sister Xi Daji’s bad words will be added to me.”

Hearing this, Zhuang Chengrong thought about it for a while, and said: "There is some truth in this statement. Although I am a little clever, I don't have the skills to govern a country, and I don't have the patience to pretend to be a hypocritical and virtuous monarch. It seems that I can only be a mediocre person." Monarch, but I also hope that future generations will remember, why not give you a good name as a virtuous queen, so that I can also rely on my name."

The husband and wife joked for a while, Zhuang Chengrong frowned again and said: "I am the youngest among the brothers, but I became the emperor in the end. They are more afraid of my notoriety. If they are provoked in the future, it will be troublesome again. Kill them There is no reason, and it is always a scourge."

Shen Qiujun thought for a while and said with a smile: "I don't have any ideas here, but I believe that with your intelligence, you can naturally think of a way without bloodshed. Killing people is always the most helpless way."

A few days later, Zhuang Chengrong went to see the Supreme Emperor.The Supreme Emperor knew that Zhuang Chengrong would do what he said, and he had been in a state of fear since that day. When he saw him, he hurriedly said: "Forget it, I'm old, and I don't care about worldly affairs. The world is in your hands anyway. Whether it's good or bad, you will have to face Zhuang's ancestors in the future, so just let your brothers go."

Zhuang Chengrong looked at the gray-faced Taishanghuang, and said with a bright smile: "You should have done this long ago, but it's too late to say it now!"

The Supreme Emperor almost fainted: "Did you really kill your siblings?"

Zhuang Chengrong continued to laugh and said: "That day, I also said that there are only a few offshoots left in the Zhuang family, and those who are close to them are almost extinct, so for the inheritance of the Zhuang family, I had to do good deeds and give them an adoptive heir to inherit the incense. I have to bother with the imperial decree of the Supreme Emperor."

Only then did the Supreme Emperor understand Zhuang Chengrong's plan, knowing that Zhuang Chengrong intended to lift Shen Qiujun up, he couldn't help but smiled wryly, and then thought that this would be a way to save the lives of his sons, no matter how they adopted him, they still had him in their bones Blood.

So Zhuang Chengrong happily issued an order in the name of the Supreme Emperor: The Supreme Emperor accidentally dreamed that his uncles and brothers were crying and complaining that there was no one offering incense.

As soon as this decree was announced, there was an uproar in the capital, and the third prince and others suddenly found out that they couldn't help but feel upset. They suddenly changed from the son of the Supreme Emperor to the nephew of the Supreme Emperor. calm down.

It was a torment for Zhuang Chengrong to be the emperor. After all, the royal inheritance has always been orderly. Although the crown prince rebelled against the virtuous king, and Zhuang Chengrong made great contributions to calming the chaos, the throne should be handed down from the third prince.

Now that Zhuang Chengrong is sitting in that seat, there are some hidden dangers. If things go on like this, Zhuang Chengrong is not at ease sitting, and they are also not at ease.

After this adoption, everyone was happy. Zhuang Chengrong became the only person who could legitimately inherit the throne, and they continued to be their princes. It's a good idea to hide it.

It's just that in this way, it's hard to abolish the prince and the virtuous king. As sinners, they naturally have nowhere to succeed, and Zhuang Chengrong obviously will not let them remain the sons of the overlord.

In a few days, the emperor's eldest grandson colluded with the virtuous queen's mother and son to plot rebellion and made it known to the world: last time, because of the kindness of the emperor, he couldn't bear to punish his son, but they didn't know how to repent, and they became worse. , Because the emperor thought of brotherhood and interceded for him, he should have been sentenced to death, but now he was imprisoned in the imperial mausoleum, facing the wall and thinking about his mistakes all his life.

Here I have to mention that Concubine Qi is really wronged, just because Zhuang Chengrong insisted on holding on to her, and insisted on labeling her mother and son as colluding with the emperor's eldest grandson.

Zhuang Chengrong did this, but he was still brooding over what the abolished prince said that day. He felt that cutting off his arm would be too cheap for him, and he would not be reconciled to letting him die quickly. He was offered good medicine and good medicine, and he was not allowed to die.

One day, Zhuang Chengrong was approving the memorial, when he suddenly saw something interesting in a note, he couldn't help laughing and said: "You are just talking about it, I will let you be a real bastard."

So Zhuang Chengrong agreed to the excerpt: Now Daqi has been fighting for years, and the population has dropped sharply. Many men in the folk cannot marry wives, but there are some widows who keep the chastity and live in poverty. , Anyone who remarries will be subsidized by the imperial court for a dowry.

Of course, in order to take care of those pedantic old scholars, if you don't marry a chastity, you won't be punished.

Although this decree made some pedantic people dissatisfied, the widows and some bachelors among the people who were struggling to live alone were very supportive.

At this time, another minister in the court said: "Sinners who abolish princes and virtuous kings are afraid of common people, and they don't deserve to have so many wives and concubines. Besides, they have to face the wall and think about their mistakes. They should be pure-hearted and ascetic. Instead, let those young women be in vain. It's better to ask the court to marry them together.

Zhuang Chengrong glanced at Wang Qing with satisfaction, smiled and agreed, and said: "After all, they came from a good family, and they were of high grade before. It was too wronged for them to be married by the court, so I couldn't help but let their family take over Come back, you must marry within one month, and the court will also make up a dowry, otherwise your family will be punished."
