There is a saying that goes, you can never wake up a person who pretends to be asleep. This is the case with the prince today, he has become possessed by a demon.
"Since you are determined to die, I won't say too much, lest outsiders think I am biased towards you even in a life-or-death situation.
Let me see how heavily guarded the Prince Yong's mansion is. How do you think you will succeed in forcing the emperor to abdicate? I hope you think it over carefully before answering.
I have already given you a chance to live. If you still refuse to change your ways, don't blame me for disregarding our father-son relationship and taking ruthless action against you."
The prince was a little nervous. Why did he feel that everything he did was under his control? Could it be that what Yinzhen said was true?
No, even if it was true, so what? He had already come this far and there was no turning back. Today it was either his life or his death, he had no choice.
Since there was no choice, why bother talking to them so much? What he wanted now was to strike with one blow. If that didn't work, what would it matter if he killed the king and his father?
"Your Majesty, there is no need to say more. Now that things have come to this, you should think about whether to save yourself or the child inside.
I've made every possible preparation to be able to act at the Fourth Master's residence. As I said, if you voluntarily abdicate in favor of me, everything will be easy."
Kangxi closed his eyes and took back the last bit of kindness he had for him. Since he was determined to die, he would fulfill his wish and pretend that he had never given birth to this son.
"Since you have made the decision, you must bear the consequences. You know I am a cruel person. I may really take your life."
"It seems that the Emperor is determined to oppose this son. If that's the case, why are you still saying so much? I am no longer important to you, am I?
The victor makes the king and the loser the bandit. Today I came here with the determination to die. If I really fail, I will accept it. But why do you think that I will definitely fail?
"Most of the civil and military officials in the court have been recruited by me. Do you think they will stand on your side or on my side? Do you really think I have been eating for free all these years?"
"If that's the case, why are you still talking so much? Fourth Brother, get started."
"Your Majesty, please stop wasting time. The guards surrounding Prince Yong's mansion had already been dealt with before I arrived. You only have one choice, and that is to abdicate."
"Second brother, do you really think your younger brother is just a decoration? I told you tactfully in Yuqing Palace that the emperor knew your plan. Why do you still insist on going your own way?
You thought you had the Yongjun Prince's Mansion under control, but how could you have known that your brother had already made preparations? Otherwise, how could the Emperor have come here with such confidence?"
The prince looked at Yinzhen in shock. Does this mean that his plans are all under their control? Is he a joke now?
Impossible! He was so cautious and careful, how could they have guessed his plan? Besides, all this was just agreed upon today!
No, if they had sent someone to monitor him from the beginning, then all his actions would be exposed to them.
"I lost this game by a single move, but do you think you won? Just because the Emperor can depose me as the Crown Prince doesn't mean he will make you the Crown Prince.
Based on my understanding of him, he will definitely send countless people to challenge you. By then, your fate will definitely not be better than mine. I am waiting to see what happens to you.
Father, are you very proud now? I am providing you with entertainment like a monkey behind your back. Do you think I am stupid?
No wonder I felt that leaving the palace and entering the mansion today was so smooth. It turned out that it was all your instructions. Since you knew that I would not succeed, why did you give me hope? "
"I thought you could spot such an obvious loophole, but I didn't expect you to insist on doing it and think you would succeed. Otherwise, how could you end up like this?
Prince, you are my son whom I have high hopes for, and I intended for you to inherit this country, but your behavior is so disappointing.
If I still hand over the country to you, I will have no choice but to watch the fall of the Qing Dynasty and become a sinner of the Qing Dynasty. Don't blame me, it's all because of your intolerance.
"Old Four was devoted to you, and it was you who pushed him away. If you hadn't pushed him away, how would I know his abilities were no worse than yours? And how could I have trained him as another you?"
The prince looked at Yinzhen viciously. It was all his fault. He was the one who betrayed him first. So, don't blame him for being cruel.
"Do you think you've won? What a joke! Even if you knew my plan, what would it matter? I've already arranged for someone else.
Do you know why Niuhulu hasn't given birth yet? It was arranged by me. If the emperor abdicates, she and her child will be safe. If not, then there will be three lives lost.
I think it's worth it to exchange my life for their three lives. Come on, take action. I will make sure that the fourth brother has no successor and will never get what he wants."
The prince thought that everything would go according to his wishes, but he didn't expect that instead of waiting for the sound of crying and wailing from inside, he heard two clear and loud cries.
He was confused at that moment. He had clearly controlled the midwife's family, so why didn't she do as he said? Wasn't she afraid that he would kill her entire family?
"Second brother, since my younger brother and the Emperor know your plan, how can we trust the previous midwife? As early as when she went into labor, my younger brother had the midwife replaced.
You did a perfect job. I really didn't expect you to tamper with the midwife. If it weren't for the Emperor's words to be careful, I'm afraid you would have done what you wanted by now.
Since you and your brother cannot be close brothers, your brother can only overthrow you and take your place. You know that your brother's ability is no worse than yours.
In the past, my younger brother was unwilling to fight for it, but now, for the sake of these twins, he will definitely fight for it, and he will definitely be the winner in the end. If you don’t believe me, just watch.”
The prince was heartbroken. He had done so much but still couldn't sit on that position. Since he couldn't sit on that position, why was he made the prince in the first place?
If he had not been trained as the crown prince since childhood, how could he have been so unwilling? And how could he have thought that becoming the emperor was his due?
Now he has completely lost his position in the emperor's heart. Apart from death, he can find no reason to live.
"I underestimated you. If I had been more careful, I wouldn't be the one so frightened today. Fourth Brother, you are really amazing. I lost.
I know you won't let me go. I'm willing to die, but the people in Yuqing Palace are innocent. I hope you'll let them go because I'm willing to die.
Even if they are demoted to commoners and live in remote areas, I will still thank you for not killing them. And Hongxi, I am sorry for him."
Perhaps his conscience had awakened, and the prince felt that he needed to fight for a way to survive for the innocent people in Yuqing Palace, otherwise they would not be able to survive after his death.
