Chapter 370
Now that Qi Jingyang has been deposed, the decision has been made. All the courtiers have been summoned here just to make them a witness.
After deposing Qi Jingyang as the crown prince, he immediately appointed Qi Jingqin as the crown prince. This behavior really surprised everyone, but after thinking about it, these things are all too natural.
Everyone can know what the former prince Qi Jingyang did. Those ridiculous measures are still vivid in our minds. From the imperial edict just now, it is obvious that the emperor knows about this matter. He may have kept silent because he wanted to hurt Qi Jingyang, who is the prince.
To save face, it doesn't mean that he doesn't know those things.
Everyone listened to the detailed list of Qi Jingyang's crimes in the imperial edict. The officials were a little surprised. They didn't know that the emperor would know these things before, but they didn't expect that the emperor actually knew everything.
Qi Jingyang was trembling while listening to these words. He did not expect that his father actually knew these things. Everyone knew it, but they never said it before. Now that he is being deposed because of these things, Qi Jingyang still thinks that
, he was deposed because of what happened to Zhao Peiyu, but he never thought that the things he had done in the past had always disappointed his father, but he had never spoken out because he wanted to maintain his so-called dignity as a prince.
Those who once wanted to retaliate against others' indulgence and wanted to express their inner dissatisfaction made unreasonable troubles, all of which became a knife to kill themselves.
Qi Jingyang looked at Qi Jingqin who was called "His Royal Highness" standing in front of everyone, and felt very helpless. Thinking that he was the prince whom everyone expected, he felt a little aggrieved holding the deposed imperial edict in his hand. The anger and dissatisfaction in his heart were all over.
It came to my mind at this moment.
Qi Jingyang was no longer the prince of the Celestial Dynasty. He didn't feel anything before. When he was first deposed, he only felt numb, but now his mind seems to have exploded.
I always thought that I would go to the end surrounded by everyone. Although Qi Jingqin would pose a threat to me, it was nothing. There was always someone around me who would help me settle it all. Even a female like Zhao Peiyu would fight hard.
Do everything you can to pave the way for your own imperial power.
But now he is kneeling on the ground, and as everyone shouts to call Qi Jingqin His Royal Highness, wishing him a thousand years of health, he is ordered by the imperial edict not to participate in politics and to live in Beijing forever.
The small courtyard that was originally a paradise for the prince has now become a place where Qi Jingyang is under house arrest. How did Qi Jingyang get to this point?
The elders in the royal family felt very distressed when they saw Qi Jingyang like this. They had always supported the eldest son to inherit the throne, and were not optimistic about Qi Jingqin who wanted to compete for the throne out of thin air. However, when they just heard about the decree, an imperial decree
, it is difficult to explain Qi Jingyang's crimes one by one, but it is really written out all the true circumstances. But even so, Qi Jingyang's crimes are really too numerous to describe, and even the elders of the royal family can hardly continue to listen to them.
These two imperial edicts will be announced to the world soon, and people all over the world will know about it.
All along, the person who was deposed will always be looked down upon and talked about. After the plague, the storytellers in the teahouses in Beijing will compile new books and prepare to give everyone a show. Please listen.
It was decomposed.
Qi Jingqin held the imperial edict of canonization with tears in his eyes. Hearing the ministers shouting for a thousand years, he realized that this matter was true. How hard it was for him to go all the way, that is, he was the only one who was the best.
It's clear.
Countless hard days and nights, in order to show off in front of his father, he would do anything, work hard to express himself, work hard to do everything well, and now Qi Jingqin finally got himself
It’s time to have the rights and status.
All this happened so suddenly. When the emperor was still seriously ill, they were all busy going to Beijing to fight the epidemic. They did not expect that everything they did would be visible to their father.
Qi Jingqin wanted to cry loudly, but at this moment in the Yangxin Hall, he would inevitably lose his etiquette. His eyes and nose were all red from holding it in, and the veins on his forehead were bulging, as if he wanted to yell as hard as he could, but he finally did it.
He lowered his head and looked at Qi Jingyang kneeling at his feet, and the joy of victory in his heart was extinguished all of a sudden. He thought that at the beginning, Qi Jingyang was also a man of both civil and military skills, and the two of them could actually be evenly matched, but since the death of Queen Mingxian
, he became what he is now, which is always embarrassing.
At that time, Qi Bingyu was on the bed, talking to He Sheng about his two decisions. He was also thinking about his late wife, Queen Mingxian, and whether the punishment for Qi Jingyang would be worthy of their relationship.
Apart from his status as emperor, Qi Bingyu is still an ordinary father and husband. He always considers his family first.’’
In the imperial edict of deposing him, he ordered that Qi Jingyang should not enter the court, not participate in politics, and live in Beijing forever. However, he was worried that Qi Jingqin would exile him in the future. At least all the ministers had heard this edict, so he hoped that Qi Jingqin would not
By doing this, Qi Jingyang is no longer allowed to join the court and participate in politics, and there will be no threat to Qi Jingqin in the future.
Qi Bingyu cared about Qi Jingyang and understood Qi Jingqin's temper very well. His two children were very similar to him. After he ascended the throne, he spent a year or two killing all his brothers. Only later did he know that the palace
It was so lonely. There was no one around him who could talk to him except Lu Fushuang. That's why Qi Bingyu was actually particularly dependent on Lu Fushuang. Because of this, he wanted to protect Qi Jingyang desperately after her death.
I only have two children, and I also hope that they can put aside their prejudices against each other and create a prosperous world together.
He knew that Qi Jingyang would not be reconciled, so he cut off his retreat ruthlessly. Knowing that Qi Jingqin would not let Qi Jingyang go, he surrendered to Qi Jingqin for Qi Jingyang. Qi Bingyu was old, and there were many things that he would not be able to control in the future.
This is all we can do.
After the two imperial edicts were read, Qi Bingyu did not show up, so He Sheng announced his resignation. Then the Ministry of Rites arranged for the new crown prince to enter the East Palace.
Now that the situation is special, there are no ordinary etiquette, and we simply ask people to move Prince Jing's palace into the East Palace.
Qi Jingqin walked on the wide square between the Yangxin Hall and Yongding Gate with the imperial edict. At this moment, the stone in his heart was finally put down. Ever since the fight with Qi Jingyang, he had been worried about it, and it was difficult to sleep.
I had a good night's sleep, but now it seems that everything was solved deliberately.
After the East Palace changed hands, a new life was about to begin.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince." Qi Jingqin turned around and saw Qin Yuandao and Liang Fengmian smiling at him, as if to congratulate him on finally becoming the Crown Prince.
Although Qi Jingqin is the prince now, he still remembers that everything he is doing now is inseparable from the help of the two of them, so he cupped his hands and said politely: "Master Qin, General Liang."
"The prince must not salute the two of us like this!" Qin Yuandao quickly helped him up and said with a smile: "In normal times, he would have had a drink, but it seems that it is not possible now. Wait until this period
It’s over, let’s have a good drink.”
They have been together these past few days, and their friendship is like that of a master and a disciple, which has already surpassed that of ordinary monarchs and ministers. Faced with such good things, they should have celebrated together.
"Definitely." Qi Jingqin agreed with a smile, and then looked in the direction of Qinzheng Hall, thinking that his father had not woken up at this time.
Qi Jingqin has not seen his father since he fell ill. Firstly, he is busy with official duties and has no time. Secondly, he is worried that if he stays in Chongxianfang all the time, he will infect his father with some disease.
alright.
But when such a decree suddenly came today, Qi Jingqin had the idea of going to Qinzheng Palace to take a look at his father from a distance. If he was awake, he thought he could say a few words.
Qin Yuandao and Liang Fengmian saw Qi Jingqin's thoughts, so they left the palace on the pretext of leaving the palace beforehand. Qi Jingqin was very grateful to them, but it was not the right time now. After saying goodbye, he hurried to Qinzheng Hall.
Qi Jingqin grew up in this palace. He had feelings for every plant and tree here and was quite familiar with it. He walked through the corridor and walked quickly towards Qinzheng Hall.
At this time, the palace was full of stories about Princess Jing carving out meat for the emperor to use as medicine. Rumors in the harem were aroused and everyone began to discuss this matter.
"Really or not? Can you bear it?" Behind the rockery, several palace maids were cleaning and discussing this matter.
"Can it still be false? I heard it with my own eyes. Princess Jing screamed so miserably in the Qinzheng Palace. The palace people there said she was doing this to treat the emperor's illness."
"Is this the prescription given by Imperial Physician Shentu? How could it be... so cruel?"
Now in the palace, everyone knows about Shen Tuchen's superb medical skills. In addition, when the plague is raging outside the palace, everyone trusts Shen Tuchen even more. I heard that he can find another way, which others can't think of.
This method, proposed by Shen Tuchen, is so suitable that no matter how outrageous it is, people will believe it.
"You still don't know that Princess Jing was poisoned some time ago and even lost her child, and now something like this happens again... Wow, it's really miserable."
"Princess Jing is really pitiful..."
"If the emperor can be saved, then that's fine, but...if not...it's really a pity. She was such a good girl, but now she's bruised all over her body..."
It is ridiculous to say that they were pitiful people in the palace, and now they are indeed pitying Liang Huanqing.
When Qi Jingqin was walking near the rockery, he overheard their conversation, and his mind suddenly exploded: Has Huanqing also entered the palace? Using his own flesh as a medicine?
"What are you talking about?!" In order to seek confirmation, Qi Jingqin walked up to them and asked sharply.
The maids never expected that Prince Jing would be here. The imperial edict had just been announced, and they didn't know that Qi Jingqin was already His Royal Highness.
"Your Majesty...Prince Jing, forgive me...servants...servants didn't say anything." The maids didn't know why Prince Jing frowned so seriously.
, I thought I had done something wrong, or said something wrong just now, and I couldn't admit it at this moment. I will be punished for talking nonsense about my master.
But Qi Jingqin didn't have time to talk nonsense with them here, so he asked directly: "You just said that Princess Jing cut off her flesh and used it as medicine?"
Several palace ladies were trembling with fear. They couldn't talk about this kind of thing casually, but now everyone in the palace was talking about it. They didn't know Qi Jingqin was here, otherwise they wouldn't dare to say it!
They knelt on the ground, glanced at each other, and quickly shook their heads and replied: "Slave... I didn't say anything. I don't know anything. Your Majesty, please forgive me!"
"What a coward!" Qi Jingqin saw the palace maid trying to bully her into denying what she just said. He felt anxious and kicked her away.
"Ah!" Although these maids were strong girls, they could not withstand such a kick from Prince Jing. The maid who was kicked screamed and fell to the ground unable to get up.
When the maids around me saw this, they kowtowed quickly and said, "Your Majesty, please spare my life, Your Majesty, please spare my life."
They thought they had made the prince unhappy by criticizing their master, so they hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy.
"I ask again, what were you talking about just now?" Qi Jingqin leaned down and looked at them, asking with an extremely serious expression.
If I heard you right, Liang Huanqing cut his flesh and used it as medicine to save his father, which had a lot to do with his ascension to the throne of the prince. But shouldn’t Liang Huanqing be recuperating in the palace?!
Of course, Qi Jingqin can't forget Liang Huanqing's current physical condition. Everything about Liang Huanqing is closely related to him. Besides... now it's because he can never get pregnant and have children. The one who died in miscarriage was his own child. How could Qi Jingqin?
Not sad?
Now I heard that Liang Huanqing cut flesh into medicine to save his father. However, his father may have made up his mind to make Qi Jingqin the prince because of this incident. Maybe Liang Huanqing took this opportunity to say something to his father, but no matter what, Qi Jingqin's heart
Still shocked.
The maids looked at each other, probably knowing that Prince Jing might just want to know about this matter. After all, it was only natural for him to want to know about Princess Jing.
"This afternoon, Concubine Mei and Manager He came out of the palace to invite Princess Jing, saying that she was going to treat the emperor's illness. Later... the slave heard Princess Jing's screams in the Qinzheng Hall...
...The rest is nothing. Everyone in the palace is talking about it now, and this is all I know." The maid mustered up the courage to say these words to Qi Jingqin.
After Qi Jingqin heard this, he turned around and ran to the Qinzheng Hall: Why did it become like this? If this is really the case, how can he be worthy of Liang Huanqing!
At this time, there were only the regular imperial guards on duty in front of the Qinzheng Hall, and both He Sheng and He Yu entered the inner hall.
Qi Jingqin stood below and looked at the closed door of Qinzheng Hall, frowning and his heart was beating. He didn't know whether he should go in or not.
"His Royal Highness." A call suddenly came from behind.
Qi Jingqin turned around and saw the pale Liang Huanqing being supported by Yuebai and walking towards him.
