From a prince who was deprived of power and abandoned to the emperor supported by all the ministers, what does he need most?

Of course, he needs a wife who can fill the general with fighting spirit!

Half a year ago, the Ninth Prince was an abandoned child whose military command was taken away as soon as he returned to the capital. He had no royal palace but only a general's mansion.

Now, half a year later, with the support of his ministers, he finally ascended the throne as emperor.

The old emperor was indeed very tough. Even though his whole body was almost rotten to pieces, he still managed to hold on for several months.

During this period, his breathing became weak and he almost couldn't breathe, but after a moment, he took a deep breath and recovered.

After discussing with the ministers, they still asked the imperial physician to give the emperor the same medicine used for the commander of the imperial guards.

The imperial physician has said that with the rate at which the old emperor's body is deteriorating, there is no cure, and using medicine may even make the condition worse.

But it seems that doing nothing will not work either, as it will seem that he, as a son, does not care about his father's life or death.

So after a brief discussion, we decided to give it a try.

In Fan Yunxiao's words, we should try our best to save the situation, even if it gets worse, it will be the same.

Of course, I can only say this to Bai Chi, and I can't let anyone else hear it.

To the outside world, Fan Yunxiao still has to pretend to be a filial son.

Fortunately, after taking the medicine, the condition did not worsen, but of course, it did not improve either.

The old emperor can only rely on rice soup, chicken soup, etc. to barely keep on breathing.

As long as he is still alive, Fan Yunxiao cannot commit patricide, after all, he is still waiting to inherit the throne.

As long as he lives, Fan Yunxiao will not be able to fulfill his wish, nor can he do what he wants most - to go to the cold palace and take Bai Chi out openly!

So much so that every time I go home, I have to talk to Bai Chi for a long time.

Finally, the old emperor finally passed away. Not only Fan Yunxiao, but almost everyone breathed a sigh of relief, including the concubines in the harem.

The commander of the imperial guards was infected with a skin ulcer disease by the emperor's blood. Even though he knew it was transmitted through blood, in the eyes of others, this contagious, ulcerating, and unforgiving disease was a plague!

The old emperor is the source of a plague that could explode at any time.

After the old emperor finally passed away, everyone almost unanimously sent the old emperor to the imperial mausoleum as quickly as possible. Even the old emperor's bed and the things in his bedroom were buried with him.

Fan Yunxiao also privately ordered the palace to boil water with pomelo leaves and clean the entire palace carefully. All the palace maids, eunuchs and concubines, without exception, were required to wash their hair and bathe with the water boiled with pomelo leaves.

It was said to be a private order, but in fact everyone knew it, but no one said anything.

No one can guarantee that if a place is not cleaned up properly, the same thing that happened to the commander of the imperial guards will happen to him.

Although the commander of the imperial guards recovered under the treatment of the imperial physician, he was left with terrible scars on his face and almost lost his sight.

In the past, if there were scars on his face, especially very scary and ugly scars, he would hardly be able to appear in front of the emperor, let alone be the commander of the imperial guards.

Fortunately, Fan Yunxiao took into consideration that he had suffered an unprovoked disaster, and since he himself was a military commander, he was not frightened by his almost disfigured appearance.

Of course, the most important thing is that only Fan Yunxiao and Bai Chi knew that it was they who framed their two royal brothers. If it were not for this, the commander of the imperial guards would not have been spitting blood in the face by the old emperor.

Until now, the two brothers who are still imprisoned in the prison have always believed that it was the other party who framed them, and Fan Yunxiao was just taking advantage of the situation.

But even if they knew the truth now, it would be useless. Fan Yunxiao ascended the throne in the second month after the old emperor was buried.

During the half month that the old emperor was in a coma, everything needed for his ascension to the throne was prepared.

The new emperor ascended the throne and issued a general amnesty. The two princes who had been imprisoned for half a year were finally released.

Unfortunately, the situation has already been decided and there is no room for maneuver.

Especially in the past six months, officials from the two princes' faction who were incompetent were dismissed, and those who were involved in corruption had their properties confiscated. Only those who started to do practical work after being warned were left.

But these people are also the smartest. The new emperor has ascended the throne, and most of the court supports the new emperor. They would be crazy to continue to support the original prince.

It was on the day when Fan Yunxiao ascended the throne that Bai Chi finally returned to the cold palace again, and even came out to meet Su Yao and the others.

The cold palace was the same as before. Apart from the richer meals delivered every day, it was still unaware of what was happening outside.

So, when Fan Yunxiao, wearing a dragon robe, kicked open the door of the cold palace and swaggered in to take Bai Chi out, almost all the concubines in the cold palace were so shocked that they couldn't speak.

When Fan Yunxiao was leaving, he waved his hand and all the concubines of the late emperor who had children in the entire harem, including the cold palace, could leave the palace with their children and live in the prince's palace or the princess's palace.

Those who do not have children can take them back home as long as their families are willing. Fan Yunxiao even allows them to remarry so that they do not have to remain widows for the late emperor.

Of course, those who don’t want to leave the palace can continue to live in the palace. After all, there is a special place for the empress dowager and the concubines to live in the palace.

The same is true for the concubines selected into the palace in the past two years.

They took medicine before sleeping with him, so they didn't have those disgusting memories. Therefore, Fan Yunxiao never let them know the truth.

All those who served the old emperor closely and knew the news were warned by Fan Yunxiao that anyone who dared to say anything more would be beheaded!

To be on the safe side, Bai Chi simply gave them all a psychological hint in private, telling them not to tell anyone even if they were drunk.

It's better to just keep this disgusting thing to yourself and think of it as young men and women serving the old emperor. It's more acceptable than committing adultery with each other.

Naturally, all the notes left by the wizards were also destroyed.

Fan Yunxiao even had people spread the news that the old emperor believed in sorcery and thought he could achieve immortality, but ended up dying of festering all over his body.

Of course, in order to prevent some news from being spread, Bai Chi did not record the detailed blood-drawing process when he copied the notes to frame the three princes.

In short, under the arrangement of the two, everyone knows what they should know, and what they should not know will never be spread.

What comes next is naturally the wedding ceremony of the emperor and empress.

The general's wife is actually the oldest male concubine who was banished to the cold palace by the late emperor just after entering the palace more than two years ago?

This, this is so surprising!

However, the young Majesty and the Queen are really a perfect match.
