Gouzi looked anxious and said, "If you really miss me, let's go to the next world."
Xihe: “No.”
Gou Zi was at a loss: "Then why are you acting like that?" He looked so lifeless that it rubbed Yuan Bao's bones every day.
That’s right, this lunatic was so cruel as to dig up Yuanbao’s grave!
It thought that since she didn't attend Yuanbao's funeral, she probably didn't care about this incident. After all, she wasn't really dead, right? But this guy brought a few royal guards to dig up Yuanbao's new grave in the middle of the night!
Fortunately, the Yuan family didn’t know about it, otherwise they would have rushed into the palace and strangled her to death.
Xihe raised his eyes, looked at it calmly, and said: "You know shit."
Dog: ...
Okay, he can still curse, so it seems that he is okay.
This year, both the capital and the areas outside the Great Wall were extremely quiet. The Gu family moved back to their ancestral home in disgrace. Even Duke Gu did not say a word. To this day, he still doesn't understand why the emperor didn't kill him?
The emperor chuckled: "Do you think I don't want to kill him? It's just that my daughter said it's not necessary."
His daughter said that if you want a horse to run, you have to feed it with grass. Gu Qingchen is still useful and cannot be killed, so he let him go.
The emperor felt that throughout history, there had never been an emperor more magnanimous than himself. When his ministers rebelled, he only demoted them to commoners. If this magnanimity did not pass on through the ages after his death, it would be because those people had no vision.
But why do I feel so tired lately? Am I really getting old?
The following year, the emperor's health deteriorated day by day, and the imperial physician could not find anything. He could only say that he was old and could not do any better.
The emperor sighed and could only let the crown prince handle state affairs, with several princes assisting him. However, he hadn't noticed before, but after a few incidents, he found that the crown prince was still too immature, lacked the mind and means, and made several mistakes. The emperor had to teach him carefully, which was even more tiring than being in power himself.
On this day, Xihe took the memorial from his hand and said, "Father, please take good care of yourself and I will leave these to you."
The emperor was stunned, but Xihe didn't say anything and asked him to lie down.
Emperor: ...Okay.
So when the prince came in, he saw his own sister sitting at the desk, reviewing memorials.
She made no secret of it and directly used her own handwriting to make corrections on the memorial. When he walked to the table, she didn't even look up: "The memorial submitted by the Ministry of Works has been corrected by my sister. Big brother, can you take another look? Is there anything missing?"
The prince paused, then picked up the memorial. His face darkened unconsciously when he saw it.
This proposal is more complete than the one put forward by the Ministry of Industry, and directly transforms the current bridge into a more solid and durable solution. It is obvious that it will work.
What does she want to do?
This was the thought that subconsciously popped up in the prince's mind.
In the past, he thought that this imperial sister was arrogant and domineering because of her father's favor, which was really annoying. However, what she did after she and Gu Ye broke off the engagement made him extremely concerned. She was too outstanding, even more dazzling than him, the prince.
The only thing he was thankful for was that she was a woman and could not...become an emperor.
However, now, seeing her reviewing memorials on behalf of his father, he suddenly didn't think so. She has never been the kind of person who follows the rules. If she really wants to... she has enough strength, but can he really compete with her?
The prince's heart trembled, and he subconsciously clenched the memorial.
He put down the memorial and said, "My sister, what you said is very meaningful. Even Lord Wang couldn't do better."
Xihe finally put down her pen, twisted her aching neck, and said with a smile: "Brother, you can't let Lord Wang hear this, otherwise he will definitely compete with me to see who's better."
The prince smiled but said nothing.
The two of them accompanied the emperor to finish his meal before leaving. After returning to the palace, the prince immediately summoned his confidants to discuss countermeasures.
Soon, Xihe discovered that some ministers had submitted a memorial, saying that she was old and should find someone to marry. The ministers thought it made sense, as their princess was indeed old enough, and they all submitted memorials.
Xihe: “…”
The marriage is impossible, but the prince can step down.
Xihe has never concealed her ambitions. The idea that "women should not hold power" is just bullshit to her. Is she stubborn and willing to defy the rules? Just look at the whip in her hand, the military power within her palm.
But she didn't expect that before she had time to make arrangements, the prince actually forced the emperor to abdicate.
The prince looked at the emperor and said, "Father, please issue an order."
Sun De was heartbroken: "Prince, this is His Majesty, your father. Aren't you afraid of retribution?"
The prince still looked at the emperor with an expressionless face. Behind him were his confidants and ministers, and the entire palace was blocked by them.
emperor:"……"
"who?"
Bang!
There were sounds of fighting and guards screaming outside the door.
Soon, the sound disappeared, and in the terrified eyes of everyone in the room, the palace door collapsed to the ground. Xihe walked in with the guards and arrested him without saying a word.
The emperor was worried: "Don't hurt your brother's life."
Xihe readily followed suit and turned around to order, "Serve the prince well."
The whole process did not take long. The prince did not even have time to analyze his inner thoughts about why he rebelled. He was taken back to the palace and imprisoned.
The room became quiet.
After the emperor drank the medicine, his face was full of emotion: "I never thought that the prince would do such a thing."
He stared blankly ahead, recalling the memory of the prince from birth to growing up. Such a small and soft little guy, but he had come this far and even learned how to force the emperor to abdicate.
The emperor sighed: "Fortunately you came, otherwise..."
Turning around, I saw Xihe slowly taking out something and unfolding it. It was an imperial edict.
