Reborn As a System

Chapter 8 Ascension to the throne

The second prince, Rong Xiang, learned of what had happened in the Liubi Palace early in the morning, and he staggered and almost fell when he was dizzy.

He is well aware of Emperor Xuan Cheng's temperament, his nose is the most sensitive, and he is extremely sensitive to smells, otherwise Concubine Li would not have to spend a lot of money to buy spices and burn them every day...

But now, Concubine Li actually stinks all over her body, and even fainted the emperor directly. This is simply a disaster from heaven.Now the situation is not clear, the empress holds the phoenix seal, the crown prince has no major faults, if Concubine Li falls out of favor, is it possible for him to take a step forward?

With this fear and uneasiness, Rong Xiang went straight to Liubi Palace early in the morning, wanting to see what happened, but he didn't expect that his father is still here?

Could it be that there is a turning point?There was a hint of joy in his heart, and Rong Xiang quickly stepped into the hall. He had just entered, and before he even said hello, he was fainted by the pungent stench with a plop...

There was another panic in the hall, and Yuxiang almost became a full-time handkerchief hander.

Covering the wet cloth, Rong Xiang saluted, but his heart was also cold. It is a miracle that his mother has not been kicked out of the cold palace after smelling like this...

Then he heard that soaking in the hot spring for three hours could get rid of the bad smell, his eyes lit up immediately, and he went out to ask for orders: "Father, my son is willing to escort mother and concubine to Luofang Palace."

Emperor Xuancheng also thought in his heart, the effect of this Zhuyan Pill is obvious, Li Fei's young and beautiful face not only makes him emotional but also makes his heart move, if he can get rid of the bad smell, he will also take one...wouldn't it be another Can regain youth?When the time comes...why worry about the crown prince eating power?

Thinking this way, he endured the stench and returned to Lubi Palace, but he didn't expect that the stench could really be eliminated.

Hearing Rong Xiang's pleading, he complied, and then said: "You have a sincere heart, and your filial piety is very good, let's come together."

Rong Xiang happily agreed, and Concubine Li also looked happy.

When they got up and drove to the Luofang Palace, a young eunuch quietly withdrew and rushed towards the East Palace.

Shi Qing was held in Qin Mo's palm. Although he couldn't see anyone coming, it did not prevent him from listening to the eunuch's report with great interest. When he learned that the emperor and Concubine Li were going to Luofang Palace, he suddenly had an idea in his mind.

In the palace, Qin Mo would never be able to kill the emperor, but when he went to the palace, even if there were guards deployed, there must be many loopholes.What's more, the old emperor's intention this time was temporary, and he would not be very thorough.

When Shi Qing thought about it, he suddenly felt that he had touched the truth.

At this time, Qin Mo also stood up, with a long robe and long sleeves, and a jade crown tied in his hair. Although the prince's appearance was ordinary, his temperament was outstanding at this time. He habitually touched the jade pendant in his hand, and gave an order: " Command the horse to guard the Luofang palace."

Shi Qing was so excited that he was finally going to close the net!But... is he really going to be charged with regicide?Shi Qing felt a little awkward, but it didn't take long for him to realize how stupid and sweet he was...

Emperor Xuancheng took Concubine Li to the Luofang Palace, without any fuss, went directly to the hot spring, and made people guard it in broad daylight, and the young and beautiful Concubine Li went into the water.

Emperor Xuan Cheng didn't go down, he sat aside and watched quietly.Three hours isn't too long, but it's not too short either, but compared to regaining youth, it's not worth mentioning.

Rong Xiang guarded outside, very anxious in his heart, his worry was that the smell of Concubine Li could not get rid of, what should their mother and son do... Losing the favor of the emperor, he is still weak, how can he fight against the crown prince?Many thoughts ran through Rong Xiang's mind, glancing at the poorly guarded temporary palace out of the corner of his eyes, he even had a trace of rebellious thoughts.

If...if...no!He shook his head quickly to get rid of these thoughts from his mind, but since the seeds had germinated, they had already taken root in his heart.

It was said to be three hours, but after Li Fei soaked for an hour, the disgusting stench miraculously began to fade away.Emperor Xuancheng discovered this phenomenon earlier than Concubine Li, his cloudy eyes suddenly lit up, and he stood up directly from the chair.

Concubine Li couldn't understand it so clearly, but seeing Emperor Xuan Cheng's expression, she knew that soaking in the hot spring really had a miraculous effect.

Emperor Xuan Cheng was excited, he was holding the pill in his hand, and he looked at Concubine Li with complete fanaticism, not only because of her delicate and white skin, but also because of her eagerness after seeing the success of the experiment.

Two hours later, Concubine Li came out of the water. Her skin was creamy, her face was like a peach blossom, and her whole body was lingering with a faint cold fragrance. She was like a peerless beauty.

She walked towards the emperor, kowtowed prostratingly, and called softly: "Your Majesty..."

Emperor Xuancheng lifted her up excitedly, the touch of his hands was delicate and smooth, the smell of the tip of his nose was cold and fragrant, everything made his heart surge, and he could hardly hold back: "My concubine, how do you feel?"

Concubine Li knew what he meant, smiled softly, and said softly: "I feel that everything is fine, my body is relaxed and happy, and I always feel that there is endless energy." After she finished speaking, she stretched out her finger and slapped Emperor Xuan Cheng on the chest. He circled around and said softly: "Your Majesty, why don't you take it quickly?"

These words touched Emperor Xuan Cheng's heart, he had already been very moved when he saw Concubine Li's appearance.He is much older than Concubine Li. Concubine Li is just a few fine lines of worry on her brows and eyes. Emperor Xuan Cheng suffers much more, such as old age with ringing in the ears, blurred vision, pain in limbs...etc. It was these things that made the aged emperor lose his sense of security, and he was in a state of anxiety all day long, for fear that the young and promising prince would come and take his seat.

But now, he can actually regain his youth. It really is God's protection. Do you want him to continue to be in power?

Concubine Li brought warm water early, and Emperor Xuancheng smiled at her, opened the brocade box, and put the brown pill with a cold fragrance into his mouth with a sip of water.

Seeing that Emperor Xuancheng had taken it, Concubine Li hurriedly gave him a sigh of relief, and then said: "Your Majesty, this pill melts in the mouth, and the taste is very good, but after taking it, the body will start to heat up and sweat, but only for a while..."

With a "plop", Concubine Li froze before finishing her sentence.

Emperor Xuan Cheng, who had taken the pills, fell back stiffly, and his head fell to the ground, his eyes widened, foaming at the mouth, and his body began to twitch continuously.

Concubine Li was completely dumbfounded, but at this moment a figure came in suddenly, Concubine Li suddenly came back to her senses, she wanted to kill people to silence her, but after she fixed her eyes, she saw that it was her son Rong Xiang.

Rong Xiang came in, still saying: "Father, there is a way to summon my son..."

Before he finished speaking, he noticed something strange, and his face turned pale immediately.

Concubine Li's heart sank to the bottom after hearing Rong Xiang's words, it's over, it's over!

Almost instantly, the sound of orderly footsteps came from outside, the sound of friction between armors, and the crisp impact of cold weapons.But after a while, the imperial guards guarding the imperial city appeared in unison, completely surrounding the hot spring.

Concubine Li was stunned.She, Rong Xiang, and the emperor who died of poisoning... were caught in the same place.Even if it has nothing to do with her, it is impossible to tell at this moment, not to mention, she was the one who presented the emperor with the pill...

Her body was like falling into a cellar of ice. Until now, she didn't know that she had fallen into a situation, an abyss that was about to kill their heads and ruin their reputations.

But at this time, the army moved, but instead of rushing forward to arrest them, they separated from the middle and made a passage by themselves, and then they stood respectfully one by one.

Concubine Li shifted her gaze stiffly, and saw a figure walking slowly out of a piece of dark armor.

Xuan jacket, Zhu Xiashang, dark patterns are beautiful, red bird soars, a crown suit can't stop the aura of the whole body, the appearance is mediocre, but a pair of black eyes carry a terrifying power that is breathtaking.

Prince——Rong Cheng.

Concubine Li never knew that the prince whom she had always looked down upon had such means, interlocking and meticulously planned, leading her to hell step by step by holding her soul and seducing her desires, until she was beyond redemption.

Qin Mo looked at her condescendingly, with the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, giving him a sarcastic smile.Then he looked away, as if he had no intention of staying on a corpse.

He looked at Emperor Xuan Cheng who was poisoned, and immediately ordered: "Prince doctor, give father a quick diagnosis and treatment." Then he turned his head to look at Rong Xiang, and said in a deep voice: "Arrest this thief who murdered his father to seek power and disregarded family relationships .”

Only then did Rong Xiang wake up suddenly, and he began to beg for mercy and struggle, but all his voices were blocked by the sackcloth covering his mouth, and in the end he could only look at Rong Cheng bitterly, with remorse and hatred to the bone.

The imperial physician checked the pulse for Emperor Xuan Cheng, his face was as pale as paper, and he knelt down on the ground with a plop: "Your Highness, Your Majesty, Your Majesty... has passed away."

The prince stood beside the corpse of Emperor Xuancheng, his face was full of grief and remorse: "Father, my son is late!"

When the ministers guarding the periphery heard the eunuch's obituary, they all knelt down and wept uncontrollably.

After a full half an hour, someone finally came out and kowtowed: "Your Highness, the late emperor is gone, and his last life is here. You are the body of ten thousand dragons, so don't be too sad."

The prince is still deeply saddened, and regrets the passing of the late emperor.

At this time, another minister came out and kowtowed: "A country cannot be without a king for a day, and the world cannot be without a master for a while. Please follow the will of heaven and respond to the hearts of the people, inherit the ambition of the former emperor, and become the emperor."

Immediately afterwards, the officials kowtowed and shouted: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

Amidst these shouts, Qin Mo returned to the system space. Shi Qing hadn't recovered yet, and was still immersed in the reversal of the final climax. In a sense, the prince did kill the old emperor, but in everyone's eyes , but he is innocent and cannot be more innocent...

A cold inquiry changed Shi Qing's thoughts: "Mission completed?"

Shi Qing came back to his senses, and immediately said: "Successful completion, reward 1000 points of coins, due to the time-limited task, four days in advance, an additional reward of [-] points."

After finishing speaking, Shi Qing was very excited. I was amazed, a task actually got 1400 points, and he, the system master, also got 700 points, which is great!

He couldn't help admiring: "Qin Mo, you are so powerful, you only used one pill to turn them around."

Qin Mo habitually touched the jade pendant in his hand, and said softly, "It's not a pill."

Shi Qing didn't know, so when he looked up at him, he happened to see the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a smile of unknown meaning: "It's desire."
