Chapter 808: Palace Change
When Cui Changan heard that the eldest prince was allowed to enter the palace, he was stunned.
Eunuch A Zhong is the most trusted chief eunuch around the emperor - is the emperor serious?
"You mean, Concubine Yi gave birth to a prince, and His Royal Highness Prince Hong brought in a red gold and gemstone longevity locket for Concubine Yi's mother's family?"
"Then His Majesty asked you to leave the palace to pick up the eldest prince?"
Eunuch Zhong nodded quickly and said, "Master Cui, please take a look. What should we do now?"
He grew up with the current emperor and is familiar with Cui Changan. If anything happens to the emperor, he will not suffer any consequences.
It was because he felt the danger and His Majesty's thoughts that he risked great disapproval and secretly told Cui Chang'an about the situation in the palace.
Cui Changan's heart sank again and fell completely into cold water.
If the eldest prince is brought back to the palace at this time, the child will become the target of public criticism and attract the attention of the enemy.
But Min'er is only three years old and has no ability to protect himself.
But he still asked the chief eunuch to pick him up...
Just to let Prince Hong know that the eldest prince is still alive, and even if he dies, Min Er will inherit the throne? !
It turned out that when the situation was most dangerous, he even used his own son as a tool.
It turns out that he not only has no family, country, or the world in his heart, he has no friends or companions, and he even has no relatives.
He only cares about himself.
Cui Changan was in a daze. Seeing that he was in a trance, the chief eunuch had no choice but to say goodbye to Xiao Wu and prepare to leave with Min'er.
Xiao Wu patted Cui Changan on the shoulder and said, "Changan, how about we follow him into the palace?"
Cui Changan was stunned: "Huh?"
Entering the palace without being summoned?
Or at such a sensitive time?
Cui Changan reacted quickly: Xiao Wu would not do anything without a purpose.
"Okay, I'll ask my father-in-law if it's appropriate first."
The chief eunuch was overjoyed: "That couldn't be better!"
"Master Cui, please..."
The two followed Eunuch A Zhong and the mighty Jinwu Guards into the palace.
When the emperor saw Cui Changan and his wife entering the palace together, he was moved.
"Changan, Miss Fu, it's great that you two can come in..."
"Father..." A childish voice sounded. It was the carefully flattering voice of the eldest prince Min'er.
The emperor looked down at his son and replied half-heartedly, "My dear Min, stay with your father today and don't leave."
"Your son obeys your order."
The little child tried so hard to salute correctly that it made people feel inexplicably distressed.
After sending away the outsiders, the emperor looked at Xiao Wu.
"Ms. Fu, when you took my blood last time, you said my disease can still be cured? How long will it take? How can it be cured?"
Xiao Wu explained simply: "The process is actually not complicated. It is nothing more than detoxifying first and then helping the body recover its vitality."
"The most important thing is that during the treatment, Your Majesty cannot be poisoned again and cannot eat anything that he should not eat..."
Otherwise, any food he eats may make the treatment counterproductive.
The emperor understood: while there was still no peace in the palace, there was no way to talk about his treatment.
He sighed and said, "Let's talk about it after we get through this hurdle."
He patted Min'er on the back and looked at Xiao Wu: "Miss Fu, could you please take Min'er with you? I have something to discuss with Chang'an."
Xiao Wu nodded: "Min'er, come to me..."
Min'er came over obediently and leaned into Xiaowu's arms.
The child was so well-behaved that Xiao Wu touched his head with some heartache.
"Be good, don't be afraid, I'm here."
"Well, thank you Aunt Xiaowu."
In the following time, Xiao Wu sat by the door of the imperial study, reading a miscellaneous book in her hand.
Min'er leaned against Xiao Wu, but her eyes looked at her father from time to time, and the admiration and worry in her eyes were obvious.
"Your Majesty, I heard that Min'er has been found? Is he okay?"
A loud voice came suddenly, and without waiting for anyone to call, a tall figure walked in.
When Prince Hong saw Min'er and Xiao Wu at the door, he paused and a look of surprise flashed across his eyes.
"This is Miss Fu, right?"
"I heard that Miss Fu is quite skilled?"
"Will you come back and spar with me?"
Xiao Wu smiled and agreed generously: "Okay."
"Min'er, Uncle Wang will hold you."
Min'er looked at Xiaowu hesitantly, but Xiaowu pulled Min'er into her arms.
"Then there's no need for that, right? Prince Hong didn't come to the palace just to hold Min'er, right?"
Prince Hong paused his hand and then grinned: "Miss Fu doesn't trust me?"
Xiao Wu smiled but said nothing.
Prince Hong didn't know what he was thinking, but he took a step back, looked at Xiao Wu deeply, and laughed.
"Forget it then. There will be another chance in the future."
He turned to look at the Emperor.
The emperor's face was cold at this time: "Brother, you came into the palace without being summoned, and you walked freely in the palaces. What are you doing?"
Prince Hong laughed: "Your Majesty, what you said is right. I grew up in the palace and I am a native here. What's wrong with walking around?"
The emperor looked at him without saying anything, but he walked straight towards him.
The imposing aura was as if he was about to take action.
The emperor was scared first: "What are you doing? Why don't you step down?!"
Prince Hong, however, refused to listen and continued to move forward.
Xiao Wu stood at the door and was shocked to find that in addition to anger, there was also fear in the emperor's eyes.
"Golden Scale Guards! Protect the king!"
The emperor shouted and the Golden Scale Guards rushed out from the back hall, surrounded the emperor and protected him, and then forced their way towards Prince Hong.
Prince Hong burst into laughter.
“Hahahaha! How many people are there in the Golden Scale Guard? You want to use the Golden Scale Guard to stop me?”
"How is that possible?"
"Where is the Gyeonggi Camp?"
The sound of armor rubbing against each other and footsteps were heard, and the rebels who had been waiting outside rushed in.
The Golden Scale Guards and the rebels immediately engaged in a fight.
The emperor's hands and feet suddenly turned cold: "You want to rebel?"
Prince Hong looked at him mockingly: "You are not stupid, why do you always pretend to be stupid and lie to others?"
"You can play dumb to the end!"
"Tell Min'er to leave the palace and never come back. Just treat him as dead."
"You can recognize Concubine Yi's child and make him the crown prince."
"I will naturally stop and assist you with peace of mind."
"Who knew you were so ignorant..."
Not only did he not reward Concubine Yi and her child, he also took Min'er back.
In this case, neither the emperor nor Min'er can stay.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone understood: the emperor lacked self-cultivation and control, and all his actions were under Prince Hong's supervision.
He revealed his intention to get rid of Prince Hong and took Min'er back, which brought him disaster so quickly.
"Get started!"
Prince Hong has led the army for several years and this operation has been prepared for a long time. The Jinwu Guards in the palace have been tied up, and now only the Jinlin Guards are left.
Prince Hong was very proud: "I want to let my father see how useless the good prince in his eyes is!"
"My abilities are obviously greater than yours, why does Father only think you are better?"
"Shouldn't the throne belong to the capable?"
The emperor's face twitched and he suddenly looked aggrieved.
"Brother Wang, you are my biological brother, you...are you planning a rebellion?"
"Aren't you afraid of being recorded in history books?"
"How are you going to explain this to your ancestors in the future?"
King Hong scoffed: "History is written by the victors."
"As long as I take that position, who would dare to accuse me of treason?"
"I just heard that His Majesty suddenly lost his son and died of excessive grief due to vomiting blood..."
"I came to the palace to help His Majesty clean up the mess."
Prince Hong drew his sword and pointed it at the emperor.
The emperor doesn't know martial arts, and neither does Cui Changan.
Although Xiao Wu knew how to do it, she still held the eldest prince tightly and didn't dare to make any move.
No one knew what Prince Hong was thinking, but he specifically told everyone not to touch Xiao Wu and the eldest prince.
Seeing that both the Golden Scale Guards and the rebels suffered casualties, and the Golden Scale Guards around the emperor were mostly wiped out, Prince Hong finally felt relieved.
It’s done!
He raised his sword and stepped forward, his eyes full of contempt: "You useless thing, go downstairs and complain to your father, just like when you were little, and say that I bullied you."
He swung his sword suddenly and struck the emperor's neck.
Cui Changan stepped forward as if possessed by a ghost, waved his hand and walked towards the long sword.
Use your arms to block the divine weapon?
Are you looking for death?
There was a flash of contempt in Prince Hong's eyes, but he increased his strength instead.
Seeing that his arm was about to be cut off by the sword, King Hong suddenly froze and a small silver dot appeared on his forehead.
Then, a drop of blood began to slowly slide down from that small spot...
He turned around in disbelief and looked in the direction of Xiao Wu who was behind the crowd.
Xiao Wu had a mini crossbow tied to her arm, which she was slowly lowering.
Obviously, it was this sleeve crossbow that had just shot through King Hong's head.
