Chapter 264

264 decision

"I look like the queen when you first entered the palace. You are so shy and shy. Now I think it was almost 30 years ago. The years are unforgiving. But I don't seem to be very old. It's the queen. You're so old. You're like my mother when you go out with me." the emperor seems to be feeling, But it's full of ridicule.

"Elegant and noble people look like you. It seems that they are looking for you when you were younger. The second prince is really a filial son." the Emperor didn't forget to mend his knife before he went out of Kunning palace.

The Turkic emperor's level of being an emperor was very general, but he was very good at satirizing others. His words in the Kunning palace soon spread throughout the harem. Xu Mingzhu laughed and felt a stomachache.

Rao Shiyan is as calm as the queen. After listening to the emperor's sarcastic words, her blood will surge up. The second prince and his wife are like clowns, which has become the laughing stock of the whole Turkic court.

The days passed quietly day by day, but in March, the news of the emperor's stroke came from the palace. The chronicles of the Turkic emperor are not light. In addition, they have fun with young concubines on recent nights, which makes them physically unbearable. The news of the emperor's serious illness was tightly blocked by the palace, but there was no airtight wall in the world. It soon spread all over the country, and people were terrified for a time.

The Turkic emperor even summoned two princes who led troops abroad to return to Beijing. Is it to establish a prince this time? For a time, the hearts of the Turkic aristocratic families were in turmoil and everyone was in danger. Is it the last time to stand in line this time? Who will be the next Prince of Turk?

In the barracks.

The second prince Dolly was fidgeting in the camp. His father-in-law chuorosonin said comforting words and tried to make the atmosphere easier, but the second prince still frowned and looked worried.

"Still no letter? "The second prince couldn't sit still any longer. He rushed out of the camp and asked the messenger. The messenger shook his head tremblingly for fear that the second prince would vent his anger on himself. The second prince stood outside the camp and said after half a ring," what's the matter in the palace? Why didn't my mother reply to my letter? "

"Is the empress really disappointed in my son?" the second prince murmured in frustration.

Chuorosoning tried his best to ease the heavy atmosphere and said with a smile, "Your Highness, you are the only son of the queen. How could she give up you? I think something big must have happened in the palace!"

The second prince's eyes suddenly looked at Chuo luosoning and hesitated: "father-in-law means..."

"The empress may be under house arrest!" churosonin's look became heavy: "now your majesty is seriously ill and urgently calls his highness and King Yong to return to Beijing. King Yong is closer to the capital than his highness. If the course is fast, it will arrive in two days. Even King Yong quietly returns to the capital from the army. The capital is probably under the control of King Yong now..."

"ASHNA Mingrui boy?" the second prince frowned. In the past, he despised Mingrui too much. He always felt that his brother was born cheap and cowardly. It was impossible to compete with him for the position of Prince, so he always didn't pay attention to Mingrui. If he knew that today's situation would be, he should kill ASHNA Mingrui first when he was still young.

"But there is no news from the capital up to now..." the second prince was skeptical about Chuo luosoning's words.

"It's because there's no news that makes people suspicious. Your highness, if the queen doesn't say for the time being, elegant people are also our people. Why hasn't elegant people heard anything? Obviously, the imperial palace is no longer under our control. If your highness returns to Beijing alone, it's likely..." Chuorosonin's words made the second prince sweat in a cold sweat. If, as his father-in-law said, the palace was under Mingrui's control, he would turn into meat on the chopping board and let Mingrui kill him.

"But the imperial edict has been issued. If the king doesn't go back to the capital..." the second prince hesitated. For a moment, he thought of another possibility. Is it the father who is testing him? If he really doesn't go back to the capital, will the father think he is really scheming?

Chuorosonin was also silent. The Turkic emperor was suspicious. It was not impossible to pretend to be ill to test the second prince.

"You'd better wait a minute, the news in the palace..." before the second prince's voice fell, a messenger stumbled into the camp, holding a secret letter in his hand: "Your Highness, there's news in the capital!"

The news was sent by a noble man. The second prince looked at the strange symbol on the secret letter and looked at the sun suspiciously: "what's written on it?"

Chuorosoning smiled and handed over a booklet: "Your Highness, I have an agreement with the noble people that the content of the letterhead should be written with a secret code, so as to prevent people from knowing the content after the secret letter is intercepted. Your highness will know what is written on the letterhead when facing this booklet."

"My father-in-law is careful." The second prince took the booklet and did not forget to praise Chuo luosoning. Although he did not love the second princess, he still attached great importance to Chuo Luoshi, the mother's family of the second princess. He trusted the mother's family of the second princess more than Yan ruchuo's mother's family, Yan ruchuo's family. They were the real winners and losers. Yan Rujia still had a way out, but Chuo Luojia put all their chips on it On the second prince.

The content of the letterhead is very simple - Gong Bian.

The second prince was silent to these two words. The elegant gentleman's handwriting was very scribbled. It can be seen that she was written in a hurry. It can be seen that even she was restricted by her personal status and could only secretly send letters when people were unprepared. Then the mother's attitude can also be explained. Nine times out of ten, the mother has been controlled, so there has been no news.

But what happened in the palace? Does Mingrui boy already control the palace? If he really entered the palace alone according to the edict, what would be waiting for him? Mingrui's butcher's knife?

"Your Highness, let's go to Beijing quickly and take the 50000 troops back to Beijing. Your cousin general Yan ruchengde stationed 100000 troops in the suburbs of the capital, and the two troops were 150000 troops. Even if Mingrui had 100000 troops in his hand, we were enough to fight him." chuorosoning made a hasty speech and tried to persuade the second prince to go to Beijing to serve the king.

"But... If this is a trap set by the father emperor to test the king?" the second prince still hesitated. He knew the suspicious nature of the Turkic emperor better than anyone else.

"Now is not the time to hesitate, your highness, please make a quick decision." Chuo luosoning simply knelt down on the ground, and several younger children of Chuo Luos also knelt on the ground. Qi Qi asked the second prince to make a decision early.

The second prince didn't want to take risks. Since he was a child, he was afraid of the parents of the Turkic emperor and empress Yan Ru. These two people had too many minds. The second prince always felt that he was as childish as a pupil compared with them. In terms of wisdom, he never thought he would win any of his parents in public.

Because the second prince was so afraid of his parents, although he longed for the position of Prince, he just wanted to be a good son step by step to win the favor of his parents. He never thought of getting the position of Prince by other means.

"If it was a trap set by my father, I would be suspected of conspiracy if I led my troops into the capital. My father would be furious. He would have preferred Mingrui. If so, the throne of the prince must be Mingrui, and I'm afraid I'll be imprisoned." the second prince shook his head and sighed.

"What is your highness going to do? According to the imperial edict, will you go to Beijing alone?" churosonen said excitedly: "Your Highness is really a good obedient son, but have you ever thought that if King Yong really controls the Imperial Palace, your highness will die if you go to Beijing alone? Your highness may die, but what should we do for those of us who put our heads on their belts and work with your highness? What should the queen do?" the second prince's face changed slightly and his expression was a little different.

"But if the father is the emperor......" what the second prince fears most is still the Turkic emperor.

A trace of cruelty flashed through the bottom of zolosonin's eyes: "If your majesty really sets a trap and wants to take the opportunity to punish your Highness for treason, your highness need not hesitate. The ancients said that a father is kind and filial. If a father is not kind, why should a son be filial? Your highness knows that the emperor is partial to King Yong now. Even if your highness continues to be a filial and good son, the throne will fall to King Yong. Your highness It's better to take this opportunity to fight for the king in Beijing and eradicate all the obstacles. "Chuo luosoning's cruel look stunned the second prince and couldn't help muttering," do you want me to kill my father? "

"Not necessarily." Chuo Luosuo Ning saw that the second prince was difficult to accept for a moment, and decided to appease him first: "Your Highness can also follow the example of Emperor Taizong Li Shimin and make his majesty supreme emperor, so that he can spend his old age in the palace."

Li Shimin, the second prince of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, is slightly stunned. The situation he is facing now is quite similar to that of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty. Li Yuan, the former Emperor of the Xuanwu Gate, also favored Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji and disliked Li Shimin. After Li Shimin LED the troops to kill his brother and usurped power, he offered Li Yuan Gao Gao as a nominal supreme emperor, took the throne himself and finally became an emperor through the ages 。

How similar to his own situation, he led his troops to Beijing to kill Mingrui, and elevated his father emperor as supreme emperor. Didn't he become an emperor in good faith? I don't know how many years it will take from the crown prince to the emperor. Even if his father is really willing to make him a crown prince at present, it's difficult to ensure that there will be other changes in the future. It's better to be an emperor in one step.

The second prince finally made up his mind and nodded slightly to chuorosoning: "just do as your father-in-law said."

Chuoro sonin was ecstatic. If the second prince's move was really successful, his daughter would have the position of queen, and chuoro would replace Yan Ru's as the number one relative family. Their political capital would soon be rewarded.
