Quickly, I handed in the system

Chapter 323 Peach Plum World (41)

"The father of the second elder brother and mother concubine is a sixth-rank foreign official. Coincidentally, the land her father ruled happens to be in the boundary of Yongzhou."

"When the father was still the crown prince, he went to Yongzhou, and at that time he met the second brother's mother and concubine." The sixth prince poured out the past between Emperor Xiao and the second prince's mother and concubine.

"Yongzhou is a frontier fortress, and the Tubo people outside the customs have some messy witchcrafts, many of which make people weaken after eating."

"Father doesn't like me, nor you, he only likes second brother."

This is also one of the reasons why he resolutely withdrew from the battle for the throne.

He didn't like that position, and neither did his mother and concubine.

It's just that they are often involuntary and have to be carried forward by others.

Not to mention that there might be father's help in this.

If Xiao Zhenruo is still the sick boy from before, he may not really try to compete for that position.

But Xiao Zhen returned to the capital with a healthy body, and he did not lose to him in everything.

Then he has nothing to argue about.

Hearing this, Sancho couldn't help but glanced at the sixth prince in surprise.

Unexpectedly, the other party looked tall and big, but in fact he was as careful as dust, and even found out about these things.

What she just handed over to Xiao Zhen was the relevant evidence that the second prince used witchcraft on Emperor Xiao.

As Emperor Xiao's true favorite prince, his own father wanted to pass on the throne to him. He passed it on early and passed it on late. It was enough to be the second prince who was not valued by others, so the second prince decided to take a risky move. Put yourself on the throne in advance.

The second prince, who seemed mediocre and honest, was no worse than his brothers in terms of cruelty.

The sixth prince left after bringing the words. He was going to pack his bags and go to Youzhou.

At first, Emperor Xiao was unwilling to let go of such a good chess piece, but the sixth prince boldly opened his wheat every day, reminding Emperor Xiao not to break the rules of his ancestors. .

After several days of stalemate like this, the sixth prince finally got his wish.

As soon as the sixth prince left, the court immediately became quiet, and no one was arguing about who should be the crown prince. Except for the fifteenth prince, there was no other voice from the court.

Emperor Xiao tried to get his own people to mention the second prince, but the courtier who spoke just said a few words before being sprayed bloody by other courtiers.

After Emperor Xiao was silent again to address the courtiers, Xiao Zhen entered the palace with what San Qiao gave him.

When he came out again, Xiao Zhen's face was red, and there was a bloodstain on his forehead.

It should have been smashed out of a teacup containing hot tea.

Sancho couldn't bear the fact that he was the child he taught himself.

Pulling Xiao Zhen to sit down, San Qiao personally applied the medicine for him, and asked in a voice that couldn't hear the joy or anger, "Why don't you hide?"

Xiao Zhen didn't answer, but talked about other things.

"Sir, he said he didn't like my queen mother."

"His harem has three thousand beauties, and so many young women are flattering him. Your mother is a queen, so there is no need to flatter him. It is normal for him not to like your mother." Sancho lied to the child expressionlessly.

Xiao Zhen raised his head with doubts on his face, "But he really likes the second prince's mother and concubine!"

"If I really like it, there won't be three thousand beauties."

Emperor Xiao's idea was sincere, and he didn't know how many shares it had been divided into.

Xiao Zhen lowered his head, "Sir, do you think I will only marry one person in the future and treat each other sincerely?"

Sancho's hands froze, she had never taught Xiao Zhen the bullshit idea of ​​being a couple for life.

It is pure nonsense to teach an emperor to have a pair of people for a lifetime.

"Of course it's good, but you have to understand that the harem is closely related to the former dynasty. In many cases, the harem exists to balance the power of the former dynasty."

"You want to be a couple for the rest of your life, that's great, but can you balance the many disputes in the previous dynasty without relying on the harem?"

It's not that she wants to pour cold water on Xiao Zhen, it's really too difficult to do.

Xiao Zhen is at the age when his self-confidence is bursting. He swept away his disappointment and said with high spirits: "I will definitely be able to do it."

Sancho didn't hit him, and continued to give him medicine without saying a word.

On the second day after Xiao Zhen came out of the palace, Emperor Xiao had a complete stroke, his eyes were crooked and his mouth was slanted and he couldn't even move.

Just when the courtiers were worried about how good this would be, Emperor Xiao's imperial decree to establish the crown prince also came out.

The second prince listened happily to Emperor Xiao's personal eunuch reading the imperial decree, he was sure of winning, until the word Xiao Zhen came to his ears.

The second prince's smile froze on his face.

"Impossible! How is this possible!" Impulsively, the second prince blatantly resisted the order.

Xuanzhi's eunuch is the personal eunuch who has served Emperor Xiao for many years, and is also the chief eunuch today.

Glancing at the Second Prince, he said slowly, "Don't worry, Second Highness, there is still an imperial decree here in the Sajia, which is given to you only by the Holy One."

The second prince didn't understand what kind of tricks Emperor Xiao was playing, so he knelt down again in a daze to accept the order.

Then he heard words such as autumn hunting startling horse, poisoning the emperor, intending to seek rebellion, etc., which exploded in his ears.

Amidst the sharp death-giving sound, the second prince rolled his eyes and passed out.

The courtiers were in an uproar.

They never expected that the dog that bites does not bark, but the one with the most ruthless feelings is actually the second prince!

As arrogant as the first prince, he didn't even dare to attack Emperor Xiao. The second prince actually did it as early as Qiushou, and even continued to poison Emperor Xiao afterwards.

The second prince has been living under the protection of Emperor Xiao, and there is no power in the court, and all those who support him are Emperor Xiao's people. Now that Emperor Xiao personally ordered him to die, no one in the court interceded for the second prince. .

Of course begging is useless, Emperor Xiao who was paralyzed in bed couldn't listen to courtiers' pleading at all.

Also because Emperor Xiao was paralyzed in bed, Xiao Zhen started supervising the country and handling state affairs on the second day he became the crown prince.

The courtiers were actually not familiar with Xiao Zhen, the former fifteenth prince. When he was young, he seldom appeared in front of people because of his frailty. Later, he even went to Xuzhou to take care of his health. There was no news for many years.

The relationship between the emperor and his courtiers is like the east wind and the west wind. Either the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind overwhelms the east wind.

At first, the courtiers thought that the crown prince should be easy to handle, and because Xiao Zhen was still young, they tried to suppress him in state affairs and make him a puppet emperor.

But who knew that Xiao Zhen gave them a surprise when he turned around.

Cheng Yu, the commander of the Forbidden Army, took the lead in surrendering to Xiao Zhen.

Cheng Yu's surrender made those courtiers with other thoughts suddenly feel half-cooled.

Cheng Yu is the commander of the imperial army, who governs the entire imperial city. Whoever controls him will hold half the lives of the people in the entire imperial city.

Before the courtiers could digest the bad news, the Lu family of Guanwuhou's Mansion also surrendered with military power, followed by the mother clan of the sixth prince and General Li of Jiaozhou.

Courtiers: "..."

There are only a few who have military power in their hands, and those who are far and near have surrendered. What a fart this is!
