"How could this happen?" The wet nurse looked at the tree she had carefully nurtured for many years with a look of heartache.
It was clearly still there, how could it collapse suddenly?
"It's unlucky." The prince frowned. "It's unlucky, it's unlucky."
Bei Mingxuan curled his lips, "Prince, please don't feel sorry. This thing didn't belong to my Shuzhou Kingdom. In addition, it bloomed against the will of heaven, so it's reasonable that it fell."
The prince did not speak, but the wet nurse beside him looked at Bei Mingxuan seriously, "Why did Prince Xuan say that? This tree is not from Shuzhou. It has taken root and grown here for more than 30 years. The roots have long been established."
There's something else behind his words.
"Humph, so what even if that's the case." Bei Mingxuan sneered, "Its roots are not here.
Not to mention that it has been in Shuzhou for thirty years, even if it has been a hundred years, it is still not it.
Even if you reproduce here and flourish, it still does not belong to Shuzhou. If you want to live in peace, you should grow up honestly. If you insist on having that arrogant heart, you will inevitably end up like this."
The wet nurse gnashed her teeth.
But his face was calm, as if it was just a tree that fell, and it was also helpless. "It's just a tree, Prince Xuan, you are too kind."
"Really?" Bei Mingxuan turned to look at the prince. "Prince, you are the dignified prince of my Shuzhou Kingdom. Don't be deceived by some people. Father still cares about you very much."
"Father?" The prince was stunned. "Ninth brother has seen Father?"
Bei Mingxuan smiled faintly and said nothing.
"All of you step back," the prince ordered.
"yes."
Just as the nurse turned around and was about to leave, a cherry blossom petal fell on her chest.
Suddenly she felt difficulty breathing, unable to move, her eyes widened, and she breathed heavily through her mouth.
It felt like someone was strangling me and I couldn't breathe.
"Wet nurse." The prince's face was in a panic. "What's wrong with you? Don't scare me."
He looked at the wet nurse's motionless body, tears welling up in his eyes, "I will go find the imperial physician right away."
Chang'an Bei Mingxuan was surprised.
They didn't expect that the prince would care so much about this wet nurse. Why?
Bei Mingxuan said coldly, "Your wet nurse is the one who helped you control your father with puppetry."
"How do you know?" the prince blurted out, but he didn't think he had said anything wrong. "Let's not talk about this for now. Quickly call the doctor."
The prince looked at Li Shan, who was standing motionless, and shouted, "Go quickly! Why are you standing there like an idiot? If you can't get the imperial physician, I'll kill you."
"I pressed his acupuncture points, and since he can't move, I naturally won't go to the imperial physician."
At this moment, the prince seemed to understand what Bei Mingxuan said. He looked at Bei Mingxuan in surprise. At this moment, it seemed as if something was stuck in his throat. He opened his mouth but could not utter a word.
"Don't worry." Bei Mingxuan walked up to the prince and said, "Your nurse is just having trouble breathing, she's not going to die. Can we two brothers have a chat?"
"good."
Suddenly, snowflakes started falling outside, accompanied by a cold wind that blew up the cherry blossoms on the ground.
In an instant, it looked very beautiful.
Yeah, it's freezing cold.
Bei Mingxuan, Chang'an, the prince sat in the house, looking out the window at the dancing snowflakes and cherry blossoms.
There was also a wet nurse standing in the middle of the yard, unable to move.
"In the Kurihara family, only men can learn the art of releasing puppets." Bei Mingxuan didn't ask any questions, but simply stated, "Now, that only man has become a monk."
"He is the master of Biquan Temple." The prince didn't say any nonsense. At this moment, he only wanted to save the wet nurse.
Chang'an, "..."
Bei Mingxuan, “!!!”
How could this happen? What role did this play in the process?
"Someone come here." Bei Mingxuan's voice was not loud, and Fu Lin and Fu Cheng immediately appeared in front of Bei Mingxuan.
"Your Majesty."
"Immediately arrest everyone in Biquan Temple," Bei Mingxuan ordered. "Not a single person should escape. From now on, the temple will not receive any visitors for the Crown Prince's ascension to the throne on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. Bring Meng Sichan and Gu Shirou to the mansion and tell them that the princess wishes to see you."
"Yes." The two took the order and did it immediately.
Bei Mingxuan turned his head, looked at Chang'an, and transmitted, "Gu Shirou is the daughter of the abbot of Biquan Temple."
[……]What should I say?
Chang'an pondered in his heart, carefully recalling the scene when he saw Meng Sichan and the abbot master in Biquan Temple.
Now thinking back carefully, I finally understand why I felt that the master looked familiar.
It turned out to be because of Gu Shirou.
Gu Shirou's nose and eyes are exactly the same as his.
The prince standing by did not speak either when Bei Mingxuan did, but his eyes never left the wet nurse who was standing in the yard covered by wind and snow.
Bei Mingxuan followed the prince's gaze and said, "She is just a servant, why do you care so much?"
"You don't understand." The prince looked a little foolish. "She is everything to me. Without her, I have nothing."
Chang'an frowned, looked at the prince, then looked outside, wondering, "If this continues, people will freeze to death."
Hearing Chang'an's words, the prince was shocked, and the worry in his eyes seemed to be tainted with a hint of fear.
His tone was filled with impatience. "Ask quickly if you have anything you want to know. Once you've asked, let this prince's wet nurse come into the room."
The prince spoke so clearly and anxiously, was it because of this wet nurse?
But at this moment, Bei Mingxuan did not speak in a hurry.
Because he knew that the prince was more anxious than he was.
really.
"This prince doesn't want the throne." The prince looked at Bei Mingxuan, "This prince doesn't even have the ability. I just want to live a carefree life surrounded by beautiful women."
"Yeah." Bei Mingxuan nodded, "How can I trust you?"
The prince was stunned, "You can believe whatever you want, how can I know.
I have never thought of competing with you for anything, not only you but also other princes. My only hope is the indulgence of my father.
All I want is a simple life, just to be able to live more freely. I don’t ask for anything else.”
"Be more casual?" Bei Mingxuan sneered. "Your Highness's casualness is based on the suffering of others. Worshipping ghosts and gods? Taking bribes? Raping women? All your casualness is destroying my Shuzhou Kingdom!"
"..." The Crown Prince looked at Bei Mingxuan at this moment. It seemed that this person was more majestic and intimidating than his father. This feeling was something he had never experienced before. "You are more suitable to rule the country than our father."
After hearing these sudden words, Bei Mingxuan didn't know what to say to the person in front of him.
He even suspected that this person was not a prince who was raised in the palace since childhood, and he seemed to have a wrong understanding of power.
He actually wants to use the power in the hands of others to keep his own freedom and discretion.
You know, power is something that can only be controlled if it is in your own hands.
