Chapter 256: Forcing the Emperor to Abdicate, the Final Battle (Part 1)

The empress and Long Lingxun's wolfish ambitions are obvious. They have cultivated a lot of power in the court. In addition, the empress's family is also the powerful Gu family. The Gu family provides the most favorable support for Long Lingxun's forcing the emperor to abdicate.

However, they still dare not act on their own for now.

Forcing the emperor to abdicate is a very serious matter. If they make a mistake at one step, they will fall into an irretrievable situation.

And Long Moxun, in such a dangerous situation, naturally planned carefully and treaded on thin ice.

In the capital city, a storm was about to come, and at this time, Emperor Nan Shao had been waiting for many days, and finally, he waited for the person he missed day and night.

"Are you, are you Her?"

Looking at the medicine boy in front of him, who suddenly dropped her long flowing hair in front of him, and the familiar face, made Emperor Nan Shao's eyes sour. He supported his weak body and stretched it, but he still could not move away from Concubine Chen even a little bit.

It is said that the emperor is ruthless. Emperor Nan Shao has always felt that he owns the whole world and a woman is nothing more than dispensable to him. With this mentality, after Concubine Chen disappeared, he chose to completely forget about this woman. However, when the night was quiet, he could not help but think of her.

Now, twenty years later, he finally saw her again. In Emperor Nan Shao's eyes, he had forgotten the grudges of the past and the fact that he was the king of a country. Apart from his identity as a king, he was just an ordinary man with joys and sorrows, as well as a lover whom he had always loved deeply.

He'er was the name of Concubine Chen. Over the years, he had forgotten that she was his concubine, but he had not forgotten that her name had left a deep mark in his life.

"Yes, it's me."

Concubine Chen looked at the man in front of her with sighs in her eyes. She had hated and resented this man, but when she heard the news that he was seriously ill, all the resentment in her heart turned into worry. She thought that she had not forgotten this man after all. Moreover, what happened back then was due to the Queen's planning, which caused a rift between them. This time, whether for Emperor Nan Shao or for her own son, Concubine Chen had to stand in the palace again and plan with them.

"He'er, I didn't expect you to come back to see me. I, I know everything. It wasn't your fault what happened back then. I was wrong. I shouldn't have been willing to stay with you for so long."

Concubine Chen saw the guilt in Emperor Nan Shao's eyes. She looked at this man with clear eyes that were a little moist. After all, she could not forget him, and she was willing to forgive him regardless of everything.

"I know, but right now, we have more illustrious things to do."

Compared to Emperor Nan Shao's excitement, Concubine Chen was more shocked. All these years, in the snow and ice, all her emotions turned into a cold expression. The guilt in Emperor Nan Shao's eyes was even deeper, but he held Concubine Chen's hand tightly, unwilling to show it in public.

Concubine Chen let him hold it. She felt relieved and told him their plan.

"Right now, the Queen and Long Lingxun are already discussing and are ready to force the Queen to abdicate at any time. You must be prepared to protect yourself. Right now, the public is under the control of the mother and son. Long Moxun is planning outside. When the time comes, I only hope that you can listen to us and drive away the ambitious mother and son."

Emperor Nan Shao had long harbored resentment towards the Empress. He thought that he had taken good care of her for thirty years and had given them the glory they wanted. He never expected that what they wanted was his position and his life.

"Okay, I'll listen to you. I've already written the edict of succession. This throne originally belonged to Mo'er, our Mo'er."

The last sentence that Emperor Nan Shao could emphasize made something crystal clear flash across Concubine Chen's eyes. Even in those years, in the ice and snow, she had heard that the current emperor doted on Long Moshun. She never thought that he had silently done so much for her.

Chen Fei had a thousand words in her heart, but in the end, they turned into one sentence: "I understand, you have a good rest, I will protect you in the next few days."

Emperor Nan Shao's face changed. Protection? He is a grown man, and he needs a woman to protect him?

As if she had seen through the mind of Emperor Nan Shao, Concubine Chen directly exposed his little thoughts without hesitation: "What are you looking at? Isn't it true that you couldn't beat me before, and now, it's the same. If I don't protect you, what else can I do?"

What else can he do? It sounds so helpless, but when Emperor Nan Shao heard this, he put on a comforting smile. He was used to compliments from others, and after listening to Concubine Chen's words, he realized that the reason why he had been thinking about her all these years was because Concubine Chen never pretended in front of him, she always showed him her truest self.

The two people did not dare to say too much after their long separation, because there might be people outside who might see them at any time. All they had to do now was to wait patiently, waiting for Long Moshun to rush back to the palace and force the empress and her son to retreat.

And days like this seem to be torment every night.

On the other hand, Long Mosun was equally busy. He received news that the Queen and Long Lingxun were planning to force the Queen to abdicate on the night of the full moon.

Hearing the news, Long Moshun's eyes slightly raised, and a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. For twenty years, the poison in his body had existed in his body for twenty years. For twenty years, every night before the full moon, he had to endure the pain of bone gnawing.

And all of this was thanks to the Queen. It was the Queen who personally poisoned him, making his life extremely difficult for the past twenty years. Today, the Queen wanted to use this full moon night to make herself suffer.

The coldness in Long Moxun's eyes deepened. The Queen probably forgot that his poison was cured on the first day they went to the snow mountain. It was his mother who cured him personally. After twenty years of bone-wrecking pain, he also wanted the Queen, Long Lingxun, to have a good taste of it.

"Come here, give orders to all to be on high alert and stay in the mansion for the next few days. Also, take good care of Concubine Chen and Miss Luo. They must not make any mistakes."

The secret guards obeyed the order, but they were secretly complaining in their hearts: "Of course they have to protect them well. They are the future empress dowager and empress. If they lose even a hair, they will lose their heads."

The capital city is about to embark on a bloody storm.

Luo Xuening stood in front of the window, looking at the wind outside, which blew down the leaves. She looked at the swaying leaves and her eyes paused slightly.

Once the storm comes, it is time to start over again. Long Moshun, I hope that this time, you can get what you wish for.
