Gu Nianchen sighed and continued to watch the ending of the two people in the original story line.
The original owner was sold to a brothel as a male concubine because of his good looks and figure.
When he arrived at the brothel, he refused to obey the madam's orders and was beaten again.
The madam wanted to teach him a lesson, but he had not eaten for two days before coming and was beaten to a pulp.
So two days later, he died in the woodshed and his body was thrown into a mass grave.
Bai Luoyu has always lived a carefree life. Although he is also a royal child, he rarely enters the palace.
But on the emperor's birthday this year, the emperor ordered Prince Bai to bring Bai Luoyu with him when he entered the palace.
The prince knew that the emperor wanted to check whether Bai Luoyu was as the rumors said or was hiding his abilities, but he had no choice but to obey the emperor's order and bring Bai Luoyu into the palace.
Prince Bai was dragged to drink at the banquet, and the emperor asked the palace maid to take Bai Luoyu to the back garden to play.
The eldest prince took the opportunity to get to know Bai Luoyu, and took Bai Luoyu to play with many new things in the palace, gaining Bai Luoyu's trust.
Bai Luoyu thought that his elder brother was kind to him and took him out to play. In fact, the eldest prince was competing with the crown prince for the throne. Because he did not have enough chips, he wanted to win over Prince Bai.
He knew that although Prince Bai had not participated in state affairs for many years, his strategies were unparalleled and he had once commanded millions of soldiers.
If he is willing to help himself, the scales of success will tilt towards him.
After Prince Bai returned home that day, he called Bai Luoyu into the study and told him that he must not get too close to the eldest prince.
If the eldest prince came to see him again, he would claim to be sick and avoid him.
Bai Luoyu agreed with a confused look, but the next day, Prince Bai was sent to Jiangnan to provide disaster relief. The emperor specifically asked Prince Bai to go in his place, and Prince Bai had no choice but to go.
He was gone for three months, and on the day Prince Bai returned, he heard from the people lining the streets that Bai Luoyu was beheaded at the Meridian Gate that day.
The charge was to assassinate the current crown prince and he was to be executed immediately.
When Prince Bai rode his horse over, he happened to see Bai Luoyu's head rolling down. His eyes were wide open and full of horror.
Prince Bai held up his son's head, walked to the execution platform, picked up Bai Luoyu's body and returned home.
No one dared to come and stop them.
At that moment, it seemed as if the decisive and ruthless general had returned. If anyone dared to stop him, he would chop that person into two pieces.
The people on both sides of the street wiped away their tears as they watched Prince Bai holding his son's beheaded body and walking back to the palace step by step.
Prince Bai rarely leaves the palace and the people are not very familiar with him.
But Bai Luoyu often went out to play alone. He did not have the airs of a prince. He always had a smile on his face and often gave them extra silver.
Therefore, most people who have seen Bai Luoyu don’t believe that he would do such a thing.
Needless to say, all the civil and military officials, those who stood on the eldest prince's side felt like a thorn in their hearts.
Most of those who supported the prince felt sorry that the first innocent person had been killed in the struggle for imperial power.
Bai Luoyu's death was not just a fight between the eldest prince and the crown prince.
It is also a manifestation of the emperor's inability to suppress the devil in his heart.
Although Bai Luoyu has not learned anything, it does not mean that he is not smart.
Intelligent, free and easy, kind... just like Prince Bai back then, how could the emperor not be afraid.
So, he took advantage of the fight for the throne to eliminate the person who made him uneasy and once again intimidated Prince Bai.
only……
Three days later, it was the day of Bai Luoyu's funeral.
Yangcheng had been under full martial law since the previous night, and the palace gates were tightly closed.
As soon as dawn broke, the deafening sound of horse hooves came from afar, getting closer and closer.
The soldiers guarding the city gate were so frightened by the sound that their legs were shaking. The horses in the city were so frightened that they lay on the ground and dared not get up.
On each of the four official roads outside the city, there were long lines of people riding horses and holding white flags high.
"The Zhenbei Army has come to offer condolences for the Crown Prince!"
"The Zhennan Army has come to offer condolences for the Crown Prince!"
"The Zhendong Army has arrived to offer condolences for the Crown Prince!"
"The Zhenxi Army has arrived to offer condolences for the Crown Prince!"
The four great generals guarding the border of the Southern Dynasty returned to the capital at the same time to mourn for Prince Bai. A general at the door was moved to tears and shouted:
"Open the city gates and respectfully welcome the generals of the four armies to pay their respects to the Crown Prince!"
At the command, the city gate opened.
"Commanders and above will follow me into the city. The rest of you will remain stationed and await orders."
"yes."
The soldiers' spears fell to the ground with a deafening roar.
The four generals marched into the city and headed straight for the palace. When they arrived at the palace gate, the four generals followed their servants inside.
Looking at the palace compound that was once bustling with laughter and joy, it is now covered with white cloth and filled with cries and shouts.
Even though he was a general who had fought in hundreds of battles, his nose felt sore and his heart was filled with hatred.
In front of the mourning hall.
Prince Bai stood with his hands behind his back.
He spoke to Bai Luoyu with sobs in his eyes.
"Xiao Yu, father is sorry for you. He always thought that brothers would never do anything too cruel. As long as we are patient, we can have a place. It is my womanly kindness that has harmed you."
"Today, I will let his royal family be buried with you."
After saying this, Prince Bai turned around and looked at the four generals and the commander of the Yangcheng Imperial Guard who had been waiting for a long time.
Several people looked at Prince Bai with grief and indignation.
They were all old subordinates of Prince Bai. When Prince Bai led the army, he was invincible in every battle and it was because of this that he was able to help the emperor win the battle for the throne.
Just to dispel the emperor's suspicion, he handed over his military power.
However, the people he brought up back then have all become powerful generals, so how could they forget the cultivation and support of Prince Bai?
