Chapter 67: forced palace incident

No one would have imagined that the first prince would blatantly put Emperor Tiansheng under house arrest in the imperial study.

Emperor Tiansheng had also experienced competition for the throne in his early years. When the first prince suddenly changed his armor and appeared, he was calm. After a while, he stopped making more expressions.

He knew very well that the eldest prince and Concubine Lin had behaved very abnormally recently because of the affairs of the Lin family. It turned out that they were really planning to let him abdicate and become a virtuous person, and it was so fast.

The fourth prince pulled out the folding fan from his waist and quickly blocked it to Emperor Tiansheng's side, and said indignantly: "Brother, you are dressed like this, and you don't make a sound when you come in, what are you doing!?"

The eldest prince smiled and said, "Can't you see what I want to do? You are a traitor. I have been good to you all these years." He looked at Emperor Tiansheng behind the fourth prince, "Father, what do you think?"

Emperor Tiansheng was calm, and lightly patted the fourth prince on the shoulder: "Nothing, boss, don't tell me that's what I think now."

The eldest prince: "That's right, the emperor, you have been on the throne for so many years, and now you can't keep up with your physical strength. You can't go to court for three days or two. I think it's time for our sons to help you share the world's important affairs."

The fourth prince said angrily: "Big brother! You are doing this to punish the father and the emperor!"

Emperor Tiansheng sat on the chair and picked up the teacup. He took a sip and found that it was not tea. He almost forgot that it was the milk tea prepared by the personal **** before. Highland barley milk tea.

When I think of the third child who just won the battle in the north, and then compares with the leader in front of me, my heart is blocked.

The eldest is his first son. When he was only a prince, he had hope for this son and he has been cultivating him as a future successor. Up to now, he still values ​​this eldest son very much. Paving the way for him, I didn't expect that he really betrayed him as a father, just for the position he sat.

Drinking milk tea with added sugar, looking at the boss in front of me, my mouth is a little bitter.

Emperor Tiansheng sighed in his heart and said earnestly: "Boss, do you think this position is very comfortable for me? Is it because I control the life and death of the people in the world or do you think you can do whatever you want?"

The eldest prince knelt down on one knee and got up again, and said, "Father, my son is very grateful for your love for my son over the years, but you also know that my son's mother and concubine will not deal with the empress, and the prince and I will not deal with it either. Now, if the royal father is gone in the future, the crown prince will definitely kill me, the royal father, the son-in-law can't be forced to do so, or you don't really care about the life or death of the son-in-law."

Emperor Tiansheng said: "You can discuss with me, I am your father and emperor! Can I see what the prince does to you?"

The eldest prince asked Tiansheng Emperor: "What about the mother-in-law? Will she be in a cold palace for the rest of her life? After the queen mother becomes the queen mother, is there still room for her?"

The fourth prince found his sense of existence: "Brother, why is this! It's too late to stop now!"

The eldest prince suddenly laughed: "How could it be too late, it's already too late, do you naively think that after the evidence you brought back, there is still room for me to turn around? Fourth brother, you are also the culprit who forced me to become today. , if you hadn't insisted on a thorough investigation in Dong'an County, I would have confronted the emperor today?"

Emperor Tiansheng said: "I want to deal with the Lin family, the fourth is right, he acts with integrity, don't you know what the Lin family is greedy about? Boss, listen carefully, you are a member of our Li family, not a puppet of the Lin family. , do you know what you are doing now? Go back to the shore, and I will give you a chance."

The eldest prince shook his head: "Father, this is my son's decision after careful consideration. I don't regret it. Whether it is successful or not, I recognize it. My son just wants to live, and I don't want to live in fear every day. "

Emperor Tiansheng: "Do you think that I will live comfortably every day if I inherit the position of the late emperor? Have you ever seen me when I can leave the palace at will? I have to take a silver needle to test poison every day for ten years. , do you like this kind of day?"

The eldest prince: "Father, my son has never done it, how would he know? If he did, at least his son would not have to die."

Emperor Tiansheng listened to the shouting and killing outside getting louder and louder. There were screams of eunuchs and palace maids everywhere, and the guards at the door fought mechanically with those who came in outside.

The Lin family had already installed people in the palace in recent days, otherwise the eldest prince today would not have entered the palace without realizing it.

Now the Lin family has to control not only the entire capital, but also the entire palace. The palace is the first step. As for the people outside, who is the emperor is not so important to them. As long as the world is peaceful, they can live a good life. , they will support whoever becomes the emperor.

Both Emperor Tiansheng and the fourth prince knew that the money embezzled by the Lin family was used to raise private soldiers, but they did not expect to raise so much. It can be seen that this has been planned for a long time. The eldest prince is still a **** of the Lin family, and he is now Also smug about it.

Emperor Tiansheng hates iron for not being steel: "After so many years of teaching, I really taught you in vain."

Eldest Prince: "Father, I didn't mean to live a miserable life for ten years, why don't you write an edict for your son, hoping that you will be the Supreme Emperor, and you will enjoy the happiness in the future, and take care of your life, including It's not too bad to spoil your grandson, and my son has solved the big trouble for you."

Emperor Tiansheng chuckled: "You really can't wait, even if I give you the position, you can still deal with the people in the court, and the Lin family? Won't you be treated as a puppet by the Lin family? Do you have your own right to speak? You Do you think I don't know what the mother-in-law has done over the years?"

The eldest prince: "If you didn't make your mother concubine your queen, why would she bother to speak for the Lin family." He is not stupid, all this is to protect him and the Lin family.

Emperor Tiansheng: "Everyone has his own last resort and cannot help himself."

The eldest prince: "Father, I can't help myself. You don't need to say more. In the future, my son will take care of you."

Emperor Tiansheng took another sip of milk tea. At this time, he actually felt that the cold milk tea was a little sweet.

Standing next to Emperor Tiansheng, the fourth prince also listened to the sound of fighting outside and their conversation, but he had a different idea in his heart. However, he didn't have the slightest fear in his heart now, so he quietly stood by his side, and he could protect him from outside harm when necessary.

The big brother wants to be the emperor, whether it can be successful or not is still a question.

He was not the only one who was planning. Apart from the third brother who couldn't make it back from the north, the crown prince was also staring at the eldest prince. He was also staring at it. When they were in Dong'an, they found that the Lin family was secretly raising private soldiers. If they didn't know about it , he will not quietly return to the capital.

Sure enough, not long after he and Shen Mingyun came back, and the matters related to the Lin family were not finished, they couldn't wait to force the palace.

There was a fight inside the palace, and the officials outside the palace were also controlled. All the civil and military officials were locked in the palace side hall when they went to court, and no one could get out. As for their home, the soldiers of the Lin family were staring at them stand up.

Now no one dares to resist.

Emperor Tiansheng couldn't even step out of the palace, let alone how to contact the people below.

At this time, the officials in the side hall were in a state of urgency, scolding the sky, scolding the sky, scolding the earth, scolding the first prince, and scolding the first prince.

The most vehement scolding is that in the past, in the palace, you could quarrel with the civil servants about anything. No room for resistance.

A day of blood flowed into rivers, and the capital became quiet after the chaos.

At the time of Youshi, the officials who had been scolding for a day were already hungry and weak, and there was an unpleasant smell of urine in the side hall, and the stench was overwhelming.

Those who have a little strength all lean on together to keep warm and save their strength, and they no longer have the energy to curse.

Emperor Tiansheng and the fourth prince were okay, the eldest prince did not mean to embarrass them, and asked the palace maid and **** to prepare a brazier and food.

However, the first prince spent a day with them in the palace, and Emperor Tiansheng did not write an edict to the first prince.

The outside gradually became quiet, and the grandfather of the eldest prince and his uncle, who had been stained with other people's blood because he forced the palace today, swaggered into the palace.

They saw Emperor Tiansheng, whose face had softened a bit due to eating, and the Fourth Prince, who was slightly tired. Of course, the latter was not important to them.

The grandfather of the eldest prince, Lin Hongguang, said casually, "Your Majesty, the old minister is guilty."

Emperor Tiansheng said, "Lin Aiqing, what's your guilt?"

Lin Hongguang: "Your Majesty, didn't you ask the question knowingly, I hope you will write an edict, and Ze'er will be in charge of the world for you."

Emperor Tiansheng: "What if I don't write it?"

Lin Hongguang: "Then you may only be wronged, Your Majesty, for being the Supreme Emperor."

Emperor Tiansheng hasn't reached the point of being useless, and he won't compromise so quickly.

When the capital was in chaos, Li Mingjin in Gucheng was interrogating Zhu Taishou.

Zhu Taishou looked at the torches and laughed towards the south: "It's done."

Li Mingjin asked him, "What happened?"

Zhu Taishou: "His Royal Highness, of course, the matter of His Highness the First Prince has been completed. Oh, no, it may not be the First Prince now, and I will have to call him Your Majesty in the future."

Li Mingjin: "So sure?"

Prefect Zhu: "Naturally."

Li Mingjin shook his head, suddenly he didn't want to interrogate him anymore, everything has been clarified, it seems that the elder brother is behind the scenes, so there is no need to ask more, Zhu Taishou is still locked first, first look at the nearby capital What has changed over time.

It remains to be seen whether the eldest prince can succeed.

Neither the prince's grandfather nor the fourth brother were vegetarians, and since General Wei was still in the capital, it was impossible to let the Lin family continue to riot.

Li Mingjin returned to the house with a few doubts, and Luo Shuyu prepared meals when he saw him back.

Luo Shuyu asked him, "Why did Your Highness come back so late tonight?"

Li Mingjin cleaned his hands and said, "I just went to interrogate Zhu Taishou."

Luo Shuyu: "What did Prefect Zhu confess?"

During the meal, they don't need anyone to wait on them, and they all let the next person go to eat.

Li Mingjin said: "He has been holding back before, but he said it today, do you know why?"

Luo Shuyu picked up the chopsticks: "Is it related to the capital?"

Li Mingjin told him: "Smart, it really has something to do with the capital. Today's capital is in chaos. He said that the eldest brother is forcing the palace today, and it is estimated that the father and the Lin family will have a bad battle."

Luo Shuyu: "Is Your Highness worried about your royal father?"

Li Mingjin: "I said I'm not worried, believe it or not."

Luo Shuyu: "I believe that Gucheng has his people. It is impossible for him not to know the movements of the Lin family. For so many years, he has been guarding the Yan family and the Lin family. You know it all the time, so Your Highness doesn’t need to worry at all.” You can even eat and sleep in peace.

Li Mingjin: "Not only that, but there are also the Yan family staring at the Lin family in the capital, as well as our fourth brother who does not show off the mountains and waters. I thought he might return without success this time. I didn't expect his ability to compare Even bigger in my imagination, I really can't underestimate a person."

Luo Shuyu didn't expect that the first prince's forced palace would be brought forward, much earlier than he expected.

According to the plot in the book, the eldest prince will of course not succeed.

It's just that the book is different from now. Last time, the fourth prince appeared in time to solve the dispute, and this time who will help Emperor Tiansheng overcome this difficulty?

However, the current Emperor Tiansheng has not been seriously ill and can't get out of bed. He can still go to court and handle memorials. The entire court is still running smoothly. He now has three possibilities. Come out to save people, the third is the fourth prince.

Self-rescue and the prince are more reliable. The fourth prince has only started in his life. If he wants to save people, he has no soldiers or horses. Not impossible.

Luo Shuyu asked Li Mingjin, "How should the fourth prince behave in front of his father if he has no troops?"

Li Mingjin: "He doesn't need soldiers and horses, he just needs to stand in front of his father. What today's father wants most is the relationship between father and son. If an unpopular prince stands in front of him at this time, he will get his favor. ."

Luo Shuyu: "So, if the fourth prince knew in advance that the eldest prince was going to act that day, he would definitely stay by his father's side."

Li Mingjin: "From what I know about him, he would do it."

According to Luo Shuyu's understanding of the system in Shen Mingyun's mind, he believes that Shen Mingyun will definitely inform the fourth prince about the date of the first prince's action. If the eldest prince is successfully dealt with, then the fourth prince will be a meritorious minister, and Emperor Tiansheng will share all his regrets and love for the eldest prince on the fourth prince, and he will still receive the attention of Emperor Tiansheng just like in his previous life.

Luo Shuyu thought to himself, they have done so much, and the Fourth Prince still has the favor of Emperor Tiansheng.

Seeing that Luo Shuyu didn't speak, Li Mingjin knew that Luo Shuyu was thinking nonsense again: "Do you think that if the eldest brother's affairs cannot be accomplished, the fourth brother will be favored by the father and emperor in the future?"

Luo Shuyu asked back, "Isn't that the case?"

Li Mingjin: "Of course not, you don't know your father very well, he is cold-blooded, the fourth brother's personality is too similar to his, and seeing the fourth brother is like seeing himself back then, do you think he will particularly spoil the fourth brother? ?"

Luo Shuyu: "Even if you don't particularly favor it, you will leave the important things to him."

Li Mingjin: "Royal father has always been suspicious, but the sudden jump of the fourth brother will arouse his suspicion. Of course, it may also be moved temporarily, and there is something to promise."

Luo Shuyu: "I see. I really want to know what will happen in the future. The mother and concubine should be fine. I don't worry about others. I worry about whether she will be hurt by those things that don't have long eyes."

Li Mingjin: "It will be alright, she has a first-class self-protection ability."

With his assurance, Luo Shuyu still put his mind at ease.

After dinner, Lin Yuan came to the house to give Li Mingjin a follow-up consultation.

He did bring good news to Li Mingjin and Luo Shuyu, and the toxins in Li Mingjin's body dropped again.

In other words, it is getting closer and closer to Li Mingjin's fertility.

At night, Luo Shuyu was lying on the bed and asked Li Mingjin in a hoarse voice: "Your Highness, when do you want to have a child?"

Li Mingjin said while working hard: "I am enjoying the process of having a child with you now."

Luo Shuyu: "..." He didn't ask this!

It was not until he was almost asleep that he heard Li Mingjin answer him seriously: Just let it be.

Indeed, it's best to let it go.

Five days later, two news came from the capital.

One is about the forced palace in the capital, and the other is related to Shen Mingyun.

The author has something to say: Three Princes: Daughter-in-law, I bought a very important book!

Luo Shuyu: What book?

The Three Princes: A complete collection of safe asanas for post-pregnancy!

Luo Shuyu:  …
