The world is a bitter sea, and people struggle within it.
Is genuine sincerity always belittled? Are kindness and gentleness always bullied? Are ugly commoners always mocked? Is unparalleled ...
Chapter 391: The eldest sister-in-law supports the family (17)
The prince stayed overnight in a brothel, which once again angered Emperor Chunde! In front of all the civil and military officials, Emperor Chunde cursed that "the prince has no morals and is not worthy of the position of the crown prince", and ordered him to be confined to his house, not to go out without the emperor's order.
As soon as the prince returned to his mansion, he immediately punished everyone around him with a stick. For a while, there was constant wailing in the prince's mansion.
Concubine Gu wanted to take this opportunity to persuade him, but she didn't expect that the prince would also vent his anger on her, and scolded her for being "a hen that can't lay eggs, and she hasn't had any food in her stomach for so long since she entered the mansion."
It would have been better if she didn't mention this matter. When she mentioned this matter, Gu felt really wronged. She originally thought that the prince was kind and would definitely treat her well after marrying him. But she didn't expect that since she entered the mansion, she had only had sex with the prince a few times. Now, the prince went even further and actually stayed overnight in a brothel. If he came back with a disease, she would not be able to escape. Fortunately, although the prince did this secretly, he was still discovered.
"Get out, don't let me see you!" Seeing her submissive look, the prince became even more angry and threw the Ru kiln vase in his hand.
Everyone thought he was a fool. He was not stupid. Aren't the concubines in the palace fighting openly and secretly just for his little favor? And the Gu in front of him, who was so gentle and tender in the past, was also for the little power in her hands. If he was no longer the prince, they would be as far away from him as possible! Just a group of mediocre women!
Gu hurriedly trotted to the side, and the broken vase fragments on the ground still hit her, and her right cheek was scratched by a small and sharp piece of broken porcelain.
"Ah, my face, my face..." I didn't care about anything else. She screamed and lifted her skirt and ran out to find the imperial doctor.
"Come on, prepare the sedan chair and go to Chenxiangfang." He spoke hoarsely to the dark.
So what if the emperor reprimanded and confined him! So what if he was unworthy of the position of crown prince! Whether or not he could become emperor was not something that could be decided by just a few words from others. He, the real prince of Darong, had more bargaining chips in his hands than his father, the emperor, could imagine.
That night, the night was dark and there were no pedestrians on the streets. A sedan chair landed quietly in the backyard of Chenxiangfang.
"Sir, why are you here tonight?" Luoyan, called "Luoyan", is naturally beautiful. And she is so beautiful
that "sinking fish and falling geese". When the prince saw her caring attitude, the anger in his heart was immediately suppressed. He took the beauty into his arms, kissed her again and again, and whispered: "Nothing, I just miss you a little."
There are countless women in this world who admire his power, but he knows she won't. She is so timid, gentle, and smart, and she has all the tranquility he desires. When he was half asleep and half awake while holding her, he would also vaguely think that if he was just an ordinary person, it would be enough to have such a beautiful wife and live a dull life. But whenever he was awake, he knew that he must not give up this position.
Let alone how many officials he had murdered in order to eliminate dissidents; even if he became an ordinary person, his brothers, no matter which one of them became the emperor, would probably not feel at ease with him.
"Luoyan is a humble girl, and I am already very grateful to be favored by the young master. How dare I let the young master come late at night, what if..." She bit her lips lightly, revealing the worry that she could not say out loud, "Wouldn't that make Luoyan sad for the rest of his life."
The prince touched the beauty's soft black hair and whispered, "I understand your feelings for me. No matter what, I will not treat you unfairly. Just wait. It won't be too long."
He was silent and closed his eyes heavily. Some things have been determined.
"Luoyan doesn't ask for anything, but I hope that you will live a peaceful life." She leaned on his chest, and the clever girl still guessed something.
After serving him to sleep, she secretly passed the message under the pretext of washing his body.
This late night was destined to be restless.
The next morning, the prince united his army and rushed into the palace gate with a big flag. Wherever the iron cavalry went, there was a river of blood. The palace people ran away with their heads in their arms, and could not find a place to hide.
In the imperial study, Emperor Chunde tried his best to control his emotions, but his hands kept shaking because of the fierce emotions. His lips were opening and closing, and
he almost gritted his teeth and cursed: "Evil creature! Evil creature! He is going to kill his brother and father! He is going to rebel!" The old ministers who had arrived in the palace early did not dare to step forward to persuade him. Their eyes were full of pity, pity for Emperor Chunde, the once great emperor.
"The most ruthless is the imperial family." This sentence echoed the screams of the palace people outside, which was really frightening.
Although the great emperor had begun to become stupid, he was great after all. He quickly stabilized his emotions and ordered his army to resist. In other words, he had been prepared for this turmoil long ago. However, he was unwilling to accept the current situation in his heart.
The winner of this change was obvious.
When the prince was captured and brought to the palace, his eyes were full of bloodshot, and he disdained to look at the people standing in the palace. Which of these people is more innocent than him! Which of his royal brothers dared to pat his chest and say that he didn't want to sit in the position above ten thousand people!
He knew that he had lost, and he was ready to face the fate of failure. But he was right, he disdained to face those mocking faces.
"Your Highness, do you know why you lost?" Dong Helai changed into a brand new court dress and stood beside the Grand Secretary Wei Yan.
This literati who once took the initiative to surrender to him actually dared to challenge him! He rolled his eyes: "If we lose, we lose. There are no so many reasons."
"It seems that Your Highness still doesn't know." The gentle young man walked towards the captured him step by step, and his words were so gentle that only the two of them could hear, "It's because there are too many people collecting debts."
The prince looked up at him, trying to carefully identify who he was and when he had offended him or someone of his! But there were too many people and things like this, and the complicated thoughts made him unable to figure out the reason.
"The prince has committed treason and committed treason. He will be executed at the Meridian Gate tomorrow. All the people in the prince's mansion, women will be maids, men will be slaves, and will be exiled. Officials who participated in this rebellion
will be tortured to death." Emperor Chunde wiped his eyelids with obvious wrinkles and issued an edict. His tolerance for the only blood of his beloved could only go so far. Although he would be sad for a while after losing this son, he still had other princes. Not long after, he recovered his mood and must choose an obedient heir.
At the moment of uproar in the court, Lord Gu, the censor, lightly set his eyes on the young man.
