Chapter 237

Changle didn't know what went wrong. This prescription had been approved by several doctors, and it was prepared by someone she and the old prince trusted. She fed it by the spoonful. How could this happen?

The old prince closed his eyes tightly, his breathing was weak, and his life passed at the speed of an hourglass.

Changle gritted his teeth and gave the old prince the medicine to take. Within half a moment, the old prince's complexion improved at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he actually woke up.

Changle cried and hugged the old prince: "Father, you scared the child to death..."

The young doctor was very worried. Looking at the color of the old prince's lips, it seemed that it was not getting better, but more like... a return to glory.

The old prince glanced at him and signaled everyone to be silent. He gently patted Chang Le on the back, coaxing her like Chang Le did when she was a child.

Changle wiped away his tears indiscriminately, and the old prince smiled and said: "How old a girl is, she still cries."

Changle's eyes turned red and he said nothing. The old prince asked everyone to leave until only the two of them were left in the room.

"Changle, my father is about to die." the old prince said.

Changle gritted his teeth and the old prince sighed: "Everyone will die sooner or later. Changle doesn't need to feel sad for his father. However, the one thing that my father can't let go of the most is you."

The old prince gently wiped away Changle's tears and looked at the tassels of the curtain, as if he was lost in memories.

"When you were young, who didn't want to sit on that chair? Your grandmother gave your father a fiefdom, the most prosperous Youzhou. She knew your father's thoughts, and he was unwilling to give in.

Therefore, my father trained 60,000 scattered soldiers into elites. Even if the late emperor ascends the throne, my father's thoughts may not disappear.

But people always change. Later, my father felt that the weapon talisman was too hot to handle, because he knew that sooner or later it would become a disaster and put everyone in the house at risk."

Chang Le pursed her lips, and the old prince looked at her and smiled: "Chang Le, when you came back from the capital three years ago, you were worried about something. Even if you didn't say anything, my father knew it."

Changle lowered his head: "I was just a child who was ignorant at first."

The old prince shook his head: "Actually, my father has to thank him. The Ninth Prince's palace is extremely deep, he can endure what ordinary people cannot endure, and he is ambitious, which is beyond the reach of the late emperor.

Once he ascends the throne, the 60,000 elite soldiers will be like a knife hanging in the palace. How can the couch lying on his side allow others to sleep soundly? This was the case with the late emperor, and the same is true with the ninth prince.

However, the late Emperor was not capable enough and could not sleep with your father. He also slept with you, but the Ninth Prince is different.

Once he takes control, no one can guess what will happen next.

Chang Le, you must remember that you must not pursue what happened tonight. Your father has arranged a way out for you. You can live the rest of your life peacefully. If you meet the person you like—"

The old prince spit out a mouthful of black blood, his voice became smaller and smaller, his breath became weak, and his rosy face turned gray at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Chang Le burst into tears. The old prince swallowed the blood from his throat and said with difficulty:

"Whether you get married and have children, or live freely and unrestrainedly, my father only hopes that Chang Le will be happy for the rest of his life..."

The old prince slowly closed his eyes, and there were only mournful sobs in the room.

News of the old prince's death reached the capital, and the new emperor expressed his regrets and sent people to express condolences. The Prince of Youzhou was horrified. In gratitude for the emperor's great kindness, the princess even kowtowed in the direction of the imperial city in person to receive the order.

In the Qianqing Palace, the incense burner was filled with ambergris, and Prime Minister Ji knelt straight in the palace.

The new emperor picked up the teacup and sipped the tea slowly. After drinking half of it, he put down the teacup, lazily raised his eyelids and supported his head with his hands: "The messenger who stopped the messenger also met with the imperial advisor in person. Not only that, he also secretly sent

Someone went to deliver a message and disobeyed Gu's will. What crime should the Prime Minister face?"

The new emperor's voice was light and airy, as if he didn't mean to blame him at all.

Prime Minister Ji knelt down, neither humble nor overbearing: "Your Majesty promised me."

"Does the Prime Minister doubt Gu?" the new emperor asked.

"I don't dare."

"You see, Prime Minister Gu is very courageous." The new emperor said slowly, "Since I promised the Prime Minister, I will naturally not go back on my word. I have found out that the person who put the arsenic powder into the medicine jar was the son of a wealthy businessman.

He had admired Princess Changle for a long time, but due to the power of Prince Jing, he could not get close to her. This time Prince Jing fainted, so he bribed the servants of the palace to intercept and kill the messenger.

He thought that with the fall of Prince Jing, the princess had no support, and since the princess was an orphan, he would naturally have a way to marry her home."

Prime Minister Ji's fingertips trembled, and he suddenly raised his eyes, looking straight at the new emperor.

The new emperor smiled and said: "When Gu offered marriage to the Prime Minister, the Prime Minister refused, and Gu Ye did not punish you for the crime of disrespect.

When King Jing lost his military power, he was like a tiger with its teeth pulled out. Gu Gu couldn't argue with him. Even if he had ambitions, Gu could kill him in the cradle.

Why, do you all think that Gu killed him?"

"I... don't dare." Prime Minister Ji knelt down and worshiped.

The new emperor put his hand on his forehead, closed his eyes, and waved his hand a little tiredly, "Step back."



"General!"

"General, I thought you wouldn't come over!"

Before the people from Chu Yu arrived, soldiers who noticed his aura from a distance began to welcome him one after another.

The three of them approached, and the military advisor waved his feather fan to greet them. Chu Yu looked around and raised his eyebrows in surprise: "The military advisor's choice is indeed good."

"Thank you, General." The military advisor looked behind him and sighed with regret before seeing the figure he hadn't seen for a long time.

Chu Yu slowly looked at the villa in front of him. The military advisor introduced that this was an unfinished building. People died when the building was first built. Halfway through the construction, there were workers hanging from the beams, which was like being possessed by an evil spirit.

Same.

The contractor invited people to perform rituals, but it didn't work. Accidents occurred one after another during the construction, which scared the contractor and ran away.

"They are hanged ghosts. After saying hello to them, the military advisor took us to stay," a soldier said.

There is no one in this area. It is very desolate. The unfinished buildings are overgrown with weeds. Usually no one comes here. There are many of them, so it is best to live here so as not to disturb others.

In the planned parking lot are a group of soldiers, still retaining the habits of their previous training.

Vice General Chen stretched his body and said, "After lying down for two thousand years, my bones are tender. I still have to practice."

The military advisor sighed: "There is something strange in the sky, and chaos is about to happen."

"Your Majesty left us here just for today." Vice General Chen said nonchalantly, "We are all dead anyway. Unless our souls are gone, we can still get up and fight again after being stabbed. Let's just be chaotic. What are we afraid of?"

"Reckless man, do you think everything can be solved with a knife?" The military advisor couldn't help but rolled his eyes.

Vice General Chen: "Who are you calling a fool! If it weren't for the guidance of the national master, you are so weak that you wouldn't be able to take a punch from me!"

The military advisor retorted: "That's because I am smart, and the national advisor is willing to give me advice. If someone is as clueless as some people, he just can't learn it even if he tells the truth..."

"I'm leaving." Just as the two of them were arguing, Chu Yu slowly turned and left, "If you need anything, just come to me."
