Chapter 915 61 The Eldest Son

On the way back from the palace, the second prince's face was particularly gloomy, and there was some weird excitement.

More than 20 years ago, he was seeking medical treatment due to the infirmities caused during his pregnancy. Later, a traveling doctor came to his door and said he could help him cure his illness. Doctor You was really capable. After taking the pills for a month, his ailments were much better. That winter, he only sneezed a few times and didn't catch a single cold. When he wanted to let the wandering doctor continue to cure him, the wandering doctor revealed his purpose. It turned out that he was a witch doctor from Xijue, and he was given the secret treasure of the Xijue royal family, which could remove old maladies from the body and prolong life. Such treasures were not obtained by Dayan when they invaded the royal court of Xijue, and were taken away by the orphans of the royal family who were lucky enough to escape.

Doctor You told him that if he wanted to get the remaining medicine for a complete cure, he had to do a favor. That task was simple, just to send You Yi to the East Palace.

"Don't worry, what I want to do will definitely satisfy your desire. Prince, is it an eyesore?"

Listening to You Yi's words, the second prince's eyes flashed slightly.

"I'll help you cure your illness, and I'll help you get rid of your biggest disaster. All you need to do is send me to the East Palace. Isn't this deal a good deal?"

If the wandering doctor said that he wanted to serve his father, he would definitely not be able to agree. He is not that capable, and if his father was killed, wouldn't the prince be able to truly ascend the throne? He would not do anything good to make room for the prince. But if you just want to go to the East Palace... you can still do it with a little effort. If the wandering doctor kills the prince, wouldn't it be in line with his wishes?

The young second prince agreed.

Doctor You is a cruel person. Although he claims to be from Xijue, his facial features have no trace of Xijue. He looks completely Han. He speaks Dayan Mandarin without any accent. He took his own life in the palace, and was sent to the East Palace after he was recuperated. He didn't care about the second prince's surveillance of him, and even enjoyed the second prince's manpower to monitor him.

What happened next was completely beyond the second prince's expectations.

Doctor You slowly gained the prince's love and trust. Two years later, the prince suddenly had a baby. No one thought that the prince would force the palace for no reason. Isn't that crazy? Even the second prince, whose uncle was in charge of a quarter of the troops in the west camp in Beijing, had never thought of seizing the rightful son by forcing him into the palace. His father took military power very seriously. His uncle sounded like he had a quarter of the troops in the Jingxi camp, but that quarter was also under heavy threat and could not be mobilized quietly.

The second prince thought that the fight between their brothers could not be linked to "forcing the palace". It was because the longevity prince hanged himself because he was too long-lived.

Besides, the prince has never reached the end of his rope and plans to bring hundreds of East Palace guards to force him to the palace. Is he crazy?

The second prince who heard the news thought it was false news at first, until You Yi took the initiative to send him the news for the first time and confirmed the authenticity of the news.

You Yi also sent a message: "Your Highness must seize this opportunity."

grasp? Grasp what? There is no way the boss will succeed in doing this. Should he seize the opportunity to save the driver? I'm afraid it won't be his turn to rescue him, and the prince's men will be shot dead by the imperial guards if they can't even get through Qian Ximen.

The second prince thought for a while and finally understood.

It turns out that You Yi's intention was to let him seize the opportunity and help the crown prince succeed in forcing the palace.

Yes, if the prince is exposed before he can implement it, his father will probably deal with it quietly for the sake of the royal family's face. The prince must be deposed, but he will definitely find an excuse to whitewash the situation. If he could help the prince achieve the plan of forcing him to marry, even if the prince's personal guards did not break through a single door, as long as he succeeded in forcing him to marry, the prince would be nailed to the crime table and would never be able to stand up again.

After thinking about it clearly, the second prince's blood boiled. He hated the prince, to the core of his being. Obviously their birthdays were only three days apart, but three days made their lives completely different. The prince is the eldest son, and he is just a concubine. If he had been born a few days earlier, he would have been the "eldest son of a concubine", and at least he could have surpassed the prince in terms of "eldest".

He has been ignored since he was a child next to his eldest son, who is in the spotlight. The prince was healthy, talented and dazzling, but his body was weak. Before the age of fourteen, he could not even walk independently and needed a cane to walk a short distance crookedly.

Every time he stood next to the prince, the second prince was suffocated. He is like a mushroom that is not growing well in the corner, jealous of the saplings that are growing vigorously in the sun. As he grew older and began to understand the meaning of power, his jealousy became more intense and gradually turned into hatred.

In the past few years, he had secretly made trouble, but he could not harm the prince. Now the prince wants to destroy himself, and the second prince wants to add fuel to the fire even if he is desperate. It wasn't enough for him to add it himself, and he secretly revealed it to his other brothers.

"Brothers working together can cut through gold." They worked together to cover and smooth things for the prince.

So twenty-eight years ago, the prince was "successfully" forced into the palace. The evidence was conclusive, and he was deposed and exiled.

The second prince was so proud that when he recovered, he realized that the wandering doctor had disappeared. He both admired and was wary of that person's methods, and intuitively felt that the person would appear again, so he left a line for You Yi, waiting for that person to contact him again.

This wait lasted more than twenty years.

The second prince who hurried back home imagined many possibilities for You Yi to contact him again, but he never thought that the person coming was not Lao Zhao, but his disciple. This disciple brought news that frightened the second prince. : "There's a war on the border."

I haven’t received any news at all. The New Year’s Eve dinner tonight is still so lively——

He realized that this was his father's deliberate attempt to suppress the military situation.

"Many years ago, my master made a deal with Your Highness, and both parties were very satisfied. This time I am also here to make a deal with Your Highness. I will definitely do the same as last time, each getting what he needs and mutual benefit." Disciple In the poor words of Dayan official, "Your body must be starting to weaken, right? Don't get excited, Your Highness, it's not that there's something wrong with the medicine my master gave you, but that your health was taken from ghosts and gods. How can you support such a... You are very lucky. You have worked hard all your life, don't you want to sit in that position for a year, a month or a day? "

The second prince's eyes flashed slightly: "Let's talk and listen."

The next day, news of the border war spread throughout Yanjing City, and there was a tendency for it to spread to other places.

The festive atmosphere of the New Year came to an abrupt end, and all kinds of discussions arose. The emperor drank wine last night and was very excited. He had insomnia for most of the night before falling asleep. The cabinet minister came to the palace to see him, saying that he had urgent military affairs to report. The chief eunuch went to the dragon bed and called softly. He shouted seven or eight times before waking the emperor up.

Lack of sleep will inevitably cause dizziness and headache. The emperor sat on the edge of the bed with his knees pressed: "What on earth is going on!"

After hearing what the cabinet minister said, he felt his anger rising straight to Tian Ling Gai, and he was furious: "Who did this?!" Then his eyesight turned black and he fainted.

This frightened the waiter half to death, and the cabinet ministers were also worried. They hurriedly sent someone to ask for the imperial doctor, and told them to notify the Queen.

"Don't make a big noise, be quiet!" As the emperor's confidant, this cabinet minister naturally knew the emperor's thoughts, so he told the eunuch chief. The chief eunuch knew the emperor's thoughts better and made sure to hide the matter. He sent his most trusted soldiers in two groups, one to secretly invite the imperial doctor and the other to the Queen's Palace to invite the empress. He used thunderous means to knock out the majesty. The news of his collapse was locked in the Yangxin Hall, and no word was allowed to spread outside.

The queen hurried over. She was not worried about the emperor. She was already heartbroken about the emperor. If we talk about the deep love between the two young couples back then, after she gave birth to her eldest son, the emperor made the child a prince when the child was one year old. How sincere the love was at that time, how ruthless the emperor would be after that. What she cared about was what the little eunuch who came to report the news said——

His Majesty fainted from anger after hearing what Mr. Chen Ge said.

What words?

There's a fight outside in Chuanbian Town, a fight with the Xijue people!

God! The queen was frightened when she heard about the fighting. Her grandfather had been fighting in the border town for several years. She was still young at that time. She occasionally overheard her father and grandmother talking about the war situation in the border town. People were dead, beheaded, and buried alive... The Xijue people left a deep and vicious impression on her heart.

Her only descendant is in Qingyue City, which is one of the cities closest to Xijue. How can she not be worried!

When the queen arrived in a hurry, the imperial doctor happened to be carried in panting heavily.

"Stop saluting and go see His Majesty first." The Queen waved her hand and strode towards the inner hall.

The emperor fainted because he was so angry that his heart was beating. The imperial doctor gave him an injection, and he soon woke up.

"Your Majesty, don't be anxious, slow down your breathing first..."

After forcing himself to calm down, the emperor took the pills with water and drank it.

"Your Majesty, what's going on with the war on the border?" the queen couldn't wait to ask, "Why wasn't there any news before?" She was anxious in her heart, and her words sounded like questions.

"Queen, you don't have to worry, the war situation is good now." The emperor sighed, "I originally thought about it after the New Year, so that the people can have a stable New Year... That's all, Chen Qing, go and post the battle report in the border town. We won the first battle against the Xijue, which shattered the Xijue people's ambition to secretly station troops and attack the border. You should know exactly how to make the announcement. "

Mr. Chen Ge took the order and left.

Coincidentally, the second military report of the year before arrived in Yanjing City. The emperor clapped his hands and laughed after reading it: "Wei Zhenshan has really lived up to my trust! Copy this military report and let the people take a good look at it." Look at the bravery of our Dayan soldiers, it’s time to celebrate the New Year, so just let them rest assured!”

The queen saw the military newspaper with her own eyes, and it was signed by Wei Zhenshan. She was very surprised. Only then did the emperor talk about how he appointed Wei Zhenshan as the General of the Northern Conquest and the Military and Political Commander-in-Chief of the Eighteen Border Cities.

Seeing the emperor acting like he was taking things for granted and without any problems, the queen's heart beat wildly.

This, this is not in line with the emperor's behavior at all! This is a man who is wary of even his own son. In his world, only he is the most trustworthy, and everyone else is an enemy spying on his authority. How could he be willing to release the military power of the eighteen cities on the border? Is this crazy? !

"Queen?"

The queen woke up suddenly. She looked at the emperor's puzzled face and slowly smiled gently: "Your Majesty, you are wise." m., please remember:,.
