Chapter 393: There is always a price to pay
But for a ruler, he is not qualified.
Being too kind might become a stumbling block for him.
He may become a wise ruler, but he cannot maintain his position.
By then, there may be another bloody storm.
So he had to show him and let him know that sometimes, it was not enough to just forgive and indulge.
When it is time to be ruthless, you must be ruthless.
Lujia Village.
Chu Shiheng has been living here since he came back from the frontier.
At the same time, he was also waiting for news from the emperor.
Of course, he has also been paying attention to the news from the Pingding Marquis Mansion.
Naturally, I also know that they will take action today.
But after waiting for a long time, there was no news from the emperor. For a moment, Chu Shiheng himself was a little unsure about the situation in the palace.
Under normal circumstances, he should have received the emperor's order to return to Beijing to rescue him.
However, he has not received any notification until now.
This had to make him start to worry.
He even wondered whether the Pingding Marquis Mansion would give him false information.
Then I thought about it again and felt that there was no possibility.
Very few people knew that he had returned to the capital, and it was impossible for the news to leak out.
So how could the people in Pingdinghou Mansion possibly defend against them?
Then the only possibility is that something unexpected happened in the palace.
Thinking of this, Chu Shiheng immediately said to the guard beside him: "Come here!"
"Prince Chu, what are your instructions?" the guard asked respectfully.
"Hurry to the palace, I need to know the situation there." Chu Shiheng said in a deep voice.
This forced abdication can be big or small, and if you are not careful, it may cause consequences that cannot be ignored.
"Yes, Prince Chu!"
"Report..."
As soon as the guard turned around, he heard the report from the spy at the door, so he stopped and looked at Chu Shiheng with a puzzled look.
"speak!"
"Reporting to Prince Chu, Eunuch Huang has a message!"
Hearing this, Chu Shiheng stood up and said, "Pass it!"
As he said this, he had already stood up and walked quickly towards the door.
"Eunuch Huang..."
"Your Majesty, the Emperor has ordered you to enter the palace immediately."
Sure enough, after hearing this, Chu Shiheng felt relieved.
As long as the emperor still has his sanity, everything is still in time.
"There is no time to lose, my lord, you must..."
"Don't worry, Eunuch Huang, I will arrange it now!" Chu Shiheng interrupted Eunuch Huang.
Eunuch Huang came at this time. Chu Shiheng knew without hesitation that it must be because the emperor had delayed him for some time.
Come to think of it, I am also a father, so I can naturally understand the emperor's dilemma.
He didn't have any ideas before, but he is different now.
He even felt lucky that he didn't take that position.
Otherwise, I might be facing the same choice today.
Sure enough, this is what it means to grow up in an imperial family.
Mengqing often says that if you gain something, you must lose something.
While you still enjoy the advantages of being part of the imperial family, you will inevitably lose something at the same time.
In the past, he might have thought that these things were just coincidences.
But now, he found that Yu Mengqing was right.
God is fair and will not miss anything.
At the gate of the palace.
At this time, the entire palace was surrounded by Chu Shiwei.
After receiving the emperor's order, the Guo Mansion and the Xue Hou Mansion rushed to rescue him immediately.
I just didn't expect that the troops of the Pingding Marquis' Mansion were so powerful.
"Lord Zhen, are you planning a rebellion?" Guo Zhaochuang said sadly as he looked at Zhen Jianfang riding on his warhorse.
"Treason? That's wrong. That position originally belonged to the Crown Prince. He just took it first. How can you talk about treason?"
"That's nonsense!" Xue Jinsong shouted from a distance.
"Hahaha... am I just making farfetched arguments? What this Lord Marquis said is all true. The Crown Prince is the Crown Prince, and that position originally belonged to the Crown Prince. Chu Murong has sat on it for so many years, it's time for him to take a break."
"You..." Xue Jinsong pointed at Zhen Jianting and was so angry that he couldn't speak.
Seeing this, Zhen Jianting became even more proud.
If at the beginning he was still worried whether Chu Murong had any tricks up his sleeve.
But when he saw Xue Jinsong and Guo Zhaochuang, he was completely relieved.
It can be said that the number of troops they have is less than half of their own.
With the addition of the imperial guards under Chu Murong's command, there will basically be no more accidents during this palace coup.
Now looking at the two people's furious expressions, Zhen Jianting knew that he was right.
Chu Murong really did not have any more troops, otherwise, he would not have waited until this time to take action.
You know, they are clearly forcing the emperor to abdicate.
"Grandfather, we already have a basic understanding of the situation in the entire palace, but as for the Imperial Guard..."
"Prince, do you know what you are doing?" Guo Zhaochuang looked at Chu Shiwei and asked in a deep voice.
"What am I doing? Hahaha..." Before he could finish his words, Chu Shiwei burst into laughter.
After laughing wildly, he continued, "He forced all of this. If he hadn't wanted to depose the crown prince, would I have taken this step?"
"You're just making excuses for everything you've done. The Emperor has been very kind to you. Otherwise, do you think you'd still be alive today?"
"Whether he survives to this day or not is not his decision, it's mine. He hasn't been liking me for a day or two, otherwise he wouldn't have been so slow to step down."
Chu Shiwei said arrogantly.
"If you want to know the follow-up, just go to the skirt: Ba Ba Qi Jiu San Qi Wu Ba Mo."
Hearing this, Xue Jinsong couldn't help but speak up, "Do you know what you're doing? That's your biological father, and he's been tolerant of me many times. I urge you to repent. That way, I can plead with the Emperor to spare your life."
"Hahaha...what a joke. At this point, do you think he still has a chance?"
