Chapter 625: The System’s Strategy for Concubine Concubine (70)

The news of Gu Xichao's illness also spread to the harem, and the concubines in the harem hated Yunhuang so much that they were envious of Yunhuang's two sons.

Concubine Shu's eyes were also red with jealousy, if Gu Xichao hadn't been blind and didn't give the eldest prince to her, she would have been able to use her natal family's power to make the eldest prince ascend the throne.

In the hearts of the concubines, Gu Xichao is a moving hormone.Once the hormones go wrong, their love brains will return, and they will look forward to Gu Xichao's early death, so that they can enjoy their old age in the harem.

Similarly, they also hope that after the new emperor ascends the throne, they will not need to marry or be buried, but can live in the harem.

Therefore, the other concubines in the harem came to wander around Yunhuang's Jingyang Palace every day, using the power of the family to curry favor with Yunhuang.

The ministers in the court were also discussing, if Gu Xichao's illness could not be cured, which prince should be allowed to inherit the throne.

The eldest prince is already ten years old, logically speaking, he is the most suitable.But the eldest prince is a concubine after all, and his natal family's power is average, so he can't compete with the third prince at all.

Although the third prince is the queen's legitimate son, he is only five years old, and he will definitely be regented by the queen in the future.

After discussions and discussions, there was still no result, so the regent asked Gu Xichao who should be the crown prince.

As soon as Gu Xichao woke up, he heard that the prime minister had come to look for him, and he exuded a trace of hostility.After seeing the prime minister and knowing his intention of coming, Gu Xichao became more hostile.

"Do you think I'm dead? As long as I live, they are not qualified to inherit the throne."

The prime minister glanced at Gu Xichao, and said tremblingly: "What the emperor said is very true, but the emperor must also think about the country. If there is no crown prince for a long time, other princes will take advantage of it."

When other princes get in the way, the Great Zhou Dynasty will be in jeopardy.Then the great trust that the late emperor entrusted to Gu Xichao was not fulfilled.

When Gu Xichao heard the Prime Minister mention the matter of the previous dynasty, he thought of his restless tenth brother.When Gu Xichao was able to ascend to the throne, he also borrowed part of the troops from his tenth brother.After ascending the throne, the ten princes returned the military power and kept themselves safe.

If Gu Xichao was still healthy, he could still suppress the emperor's relatives.But now he was lying on the bed unable to move, and he didn't know when his body would recover.If someone with a heart takes the opportunity to take the position, it will be the end of his achievements in this life.The prime minister's proposal is also within his consideration, but he doesn't want to hand over the throne early, he still wants to enjoy a few years of happiness.Maybe after a year, his illness will be cured.

"We'll discuss this matter later. During this period of time, you should pay close attention to King Yong's actions. If he plots something wrong, you will let the Imperial Forest Army take him down and kill him without mercy."

King Yong is also Gu Xichao's tenth younger brother, even though he handed over his military power, he has close contacts with the military officials in the court.Gu Xichao was afraid that King Yong would take advantage of his illness and raise the flag against him.

"Yes, I will do it now." After the prime minister resigned, he told Yunhuang's father what he had said about meeting the emperor today.

Yunhuang's father is confused, his daughter is the queen of Gu Xichao, the emperor doesn't want to pass the throne to the third prince, what is he thinking!

So, he handed Yunhuang a brochure to meet the empress.

Yunhuang is now helping Gu Xichao to deal with the court affairs, although Gu Xichao doesn't want to see him, but he is inconvenient to move now, and needs Yunhuang to read the scriptures to him.As time went by, Gu Xichao also got tired of handling things by herself, so she taught Yunhuang for a few days and asked her to deal with the court affairs.
