In the palace
After seeing the Queen fall, Concubine De take control of the inner court, and Prince Liang take control of the government, Concubine Qin realized that she was being used.
"Yue'er, what should we do now?"
Chu Jingyue lay on the couch with a pale face. Although he escaped Chu Jinghuai's pursuit, he was also seriously injured.
But his mother was only concerned about the loss of power. Chu Jingyue closed his eyes and raised a sneer at the corner of his lips. He suddenly envied Chu Jinghuai for having someone to protect him so much.
"Yue'er, why don't you say something!"
"Mother, the matter is settled. No matter how much you try, it will be useless."
"I'm not willing to accept this. Why?"
She lived a glorious life. She was the most beautiful woman in the capital when she was in the boudoir, and after entering the palace, she became the emperor's most beloved concubine. In just a few years, she rose from a small concubine to a noble concubine.
On the day her son was born, auspicious signs descended from heaven, and the peonies blossomed overnight. He was also the emperor's favorite prince, talented in both literature and martial arts. How could she not fight for him?
"Yue'er, you have to think of a solution quickly. You can't just let it go like this."
Chu Jingyue sighed lightly, opened his eyes, and handed Concubine Qin a small box.
"What is this?" Concubine Qin opened it and saw a small bottle and a piece of thousand-year-old ice inside.
"It's the blood of a medicine man. Give it to your father to drink."
Concubine Qin said happily, "Your father is saved, right?"
Chu Jingyue nodded.
Concubine Qin walked out of Minxiu Palace with the medicine, not noticing that her son was also seriously injured.
Three days later, the news that the emperor had regained consciousness spread throughout the palace.
De Fei's face changed drastically. "No, it's impossible. I've asked all the imperial doctors, and they all say the emperor can't possibly wake up. How could the emperor possibly wake up?"
When the emperor woke up, she was still the Defei.
"Who was it? Who saved him?" Concubine De clenched her fists.
——
"Hahaha, they all want my throne." The emperor, who had just woken up, knew everything that happened after he fainted.
"Go, summon the Prime Minister, the Grand Tutor, and the six ministers to the palace for questioning."
The imperial physician noticed the emperor's agitation and warned him, "Your Majesty, you have just woken up. You should not overwork yourself and need to rest."
"I've slept enough and don't need to rest." He had slept for several months, so there was no point in him resting.
He couldn't calm down when he thought that Prince Liang had become the regent and that the rebellious son was about to attack the capital.
The emperor summoned the ministers for questioning, but he only asked about the situation in the court and did not blame them.
After asking the questions, he praised each person and gave them some rewards.
Normally, they should be happy that the emperor has woken up and rewarded them with gifts, but they are now extremely uneasy and always feel that the emperor is mentally abnormal.
"Oh, when will this day end?" The Minister of Personnel sighed. First, the Queen took power, and then a group of officials stepped down and took over.
Then came King Liang, and another group of officials were dismissed and replaced.
Now the emperor has woken up again, and there is Prince Su behind him, so he is going to make trouble for the Minister of Personnel.
"If I had known this earlier, I should have resigned."
"When gods fight, the little devils suffer. We can only take one step at a time." The Minister of Rites said leisurely.
He was a Minister of Rites and had no real power. Although it was the same official position, he always felt that he was not as useful as the other five ministers.
But in the past six months, he has been very happy.
Watching those who hold real power, they stand and change sides. In the end, no matter who wins, they all lose, losing the trust of those in power.
As soon as the ministers left the palace, the emperor issued an edict to appoint Prince Liang as the crown prince.
Everyone in the palace was dumbfounded.
Concubine Qin was the first to rush to the Hall of Supreme Harmony. "Your Majesty, you can't treat me like this. What do you want me and Jingyue to do in the future? Your Majesty..."
Concubine Qin knelt in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony for a long time, but the emperor ignored her and then banished Concubine De to the cold palace.
Jiang Fu came to Jin'an Palace with the imperial edict. Concubine De in the palace almost vomited blood. She took advantage of the emperor's coma and the queen's imprisonment to take control of the inner court.
There were spies everywhere in the palace, but now the emperor's words made her fail.
This emperor should not wake up, he should die.
Prince Liang held the imperial edict in his hand. Now he was only one step away from the throne, but he couldn't be happy at all.
The emperor is pulling him out to fight against Chu Jinghuai. If Chu Jinghuai wants to ascend the throne, he must depose him as the crown prince, and perhaps killing him is more likely.
Because if he were Prince Su, he would also want to kill himself.
——
Chu Jinghuai's army stopped and started many times, and it took them a month to complete a seven-day journey.
Rest at night, walk for an hour and rest for an hour during the day.
On this day, the sunset was just right, and after the soldiers had dinner, they dispersed and moved around freely.
After eating and drinking their fill, several generals sat by the river with their bellies bulging, watching the sunset and chatting.
"General Ma, you've gained weight."
Ma Yu rolled his eyes. "General Cheng, you're talking as if you're not fat."
"Hahaha, you've gained weight."
This past month has been so relaxing and enjoyable. No need to train or fight, it's just like having fun.
Eat good food and drink good drinks, and take a walk occasionally as exercise.
"General Ma, Liuhe County is just ahead." After passing Liuhe County, you will reach the capital.
"Yes." After Liuhe County, there was a tough battle to be fought. If they won, they would rise to prominence. If they lost, they would never lose.
The thought of winning, beautiful wives, promotions and wealth made their blood boil, and the generals were immersed in a bright future.
On the other side, Chu Jinghuai supported Chen Jingxi and walked towards the river.
Chen Jingxi's steps were a little clumsy. "Do you like boys or girls?"
