When the news of the emperor's death came, Tu Yufan was rubbing Zhong Haoyu on the ground.
"It's finally over." Tu Yufan asked someone to hold Zhong Haoyu down: "But now should be the critical moment."
The emperor passed away and the crown prince succeeded to the throne. The third prince directly led his troops to rebel on the grounds that the crown prince's succession was in doubt.
The fourth prince was arrested because his greatest helper was arrested, so he could only be imprisoned in the palace. Xiang Chengting had already sent people to surround the palace in advance.
It is natural for the crown prince to succeed to the throne. No matter how much the third prince throws dirty water on the crown prince, he cannot escape the label of a traitor.
Marquis Dingsheng led the troops to suppress the rebellion. In the end, the third prince died in the battle and Crown Prince Shuncheng succeeded to the throne.
"Long live the emperor!"
A deafening sound rang out. Xiang Chengting sat upright and saw the people below bowing their heads in submission. In addition to a great sense of heroism, he felt more relieved.
Finally, he was no longer the prince who was walking on thin ice, and his father would never have the chance to depose and kill him again.
After ascending the throne, Jin Xiaohua became the queen and her son was named the crown prince.
The reign title was changed to Shunde.
Tu Yufan was also conferred the title of Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery.
The endings of the princes were different. Since ancient times, the victors were kings and the losers were bandits. Those who went against Xiang Chengting would suffer a disastrous end. The fourth prince was escorted to the imperial mausoleum, where he experienced the same fate as Xiang Chengting. However, this time, the one on the throne was no longer his father, and he would never have a chance to rise again.
.......
Since the fourth prince was sent to guard the imperial mausoleum, Marquis Xinyang has been acting as low-key as a chicken, fearing that the emperor would think of him at any time.
Marquis of Xinyang is the father of the male protagonist Qin Yuchen.
Xiang Chengting certainly remembered the Marquis of Xinyang, but he had just ascended the throne and was busy with official duties, so he had no time to pay attention to the Marquis of Xinyang who had already lost power. He would settle the score with him when the time came.
However, Marquis Xinyang wanted to keep a low profile, but Qin Yuchen did not, because the young master of the Duke's Mansion took a fancy to the heroine and wanted to take her as a concubine. The heroine sternly refused, and the young master did not bother her any more.
However, Qin Yuchen beat him half to death in the street, and he died immediately.
The arrogant and domineering hero who only loves the heroine is successfully sued by the Duke, and the Emperor immediately orders the Dali Temple to conduct a strict trial.
In the end, the emperor randomly accused the Marquis of Xinyang of not teaching his son properly and stripped him of his title, and Qin Yuchen was directly exiled to Qianli.
The heroine Yao Wei knew about these things. Although she did not do them, she was not unrelated to them. She donated all her business earnings to the country in order to seek forgiveness.
When the previous emperor was in power, he built a lot of projects and loved traveling, and the national treasury was reduced by more than half. Now that Xiang Chengting saw that the treasury was full, he did not pursue her fault any further. He rewarded her with some silver and allowed her to set up a separate household. Afterwards, Yao Wei went to Shao County alone, opened a shop, adopted some children, and occasionally went out for fun.
Xiang Chengting trusted his father-in-law more, and he implemented many of his institutional suggestions. As the country became more and more prosperous, Tu Yufan's official position became higher and higher, and he was directly promoted to the position of Prime Minister.
Tu Yufan didn't want to do it anymore. He was almost sixty years old and it was time to retire.
"Your Majesty, I am already old. I came here today to resign. Please allow me to retire and return home."
Xiang Chengting was speechless when he saw Tu Yufan standing straight with his strong body and speaking in a sonorous and powerful tone.
He thought about his recent health problems and felt that he would die before Tu Yufan.
"What will happen if you leave, my dear? I really cannot do without your help. The civil and military officials in this court are all good-for-nothings. No one can take your place. Besides, You'er still needs your continued guidance."
Tu Yufan was not fooled by all the flattery and thought that if it didn't work out this time, he would resign next time.
