"Yes, what the Queen Mother said is that my son will definitely shoulder the heavy responsibility and become a wise monarch." After a long time, Bei Mingyu said angrily.
"Yes, good boy, this is right." After hearing those words, the Queen happily helped Yu'er up from the ground and said.
"Come on, good boy, you deserve this."
After saying that, the queen took out the jade seal and handed it to Bei Mingyu. Bei Mingyu held the jade seal tightly with both hands and looked into the distance. He squinted slightly and his eyes were a little deeper.
A new emperor of the Hualing Kingdom succeeded to the throne, but this new emperor rarely interfered with the affairs of the court before, and his prestige in the court was insufficient.
So as soon as Bei Mingyu came on stage, he naturally had to use some tough tactics to scare everyone.
Of course, Bei Mingyu said that he wanted to be a wise emperor, and he would definitely do it. With clear rewards and punishments, Bei Mingyu still had to do it, and he did not lack any filial piety.
It was he who arranged Bei Mingshuo's burial.
The only person Bei Mingyu is unwilling to let go is probably Bei Mingchen. Not only because of Miss Song Jinse, but also because Bei Mingyu discovered something unusual about his father. Moreover, Bei Mingyu was also in the palace a few days ago.
I have heard people say that the fifth prince donated medicine to cure the late emperor, and that the sudden death of the late emperor was probably related to the medicine.
With all this going on, Bei Mingyu felt that the two brothers really needed to settle their scores.
In the main hall
"See Your Majesty, I wonder why Your Majesty summoned my brother?"
Although there were all sorts of reluctances in his heart, Bei Mingchen still had to bow to Bei Mingyu with a respectful salute and call him His Majesty the Emperor. Bei Mingchen understood better that this unprovoked meeting, things were definitely not that simple.
"Haha, fifth brother, why are you doing this? You did it, don't you dare to admit it?"
Bei Mingyu didn't want to beat around the bush with Bei Mingchen. Now that the power was in his hands, there was nothing he could do.
"My brother is stupid, please give me some advice," Bei Mingchen said respectfully.
"The fifth prince used the art of witchcraft to murder the late emperor." Bei Mingyu sat upright on the dragon chair, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he had the majesty of an emperor. He spoke seriously about Bei Mingchen's crimes.
.
After hearing this, although Bei Mingchen still stood humbly below, tilting his upper body slightly and lowering his head, his teeth bit his lips tightly. He really didn't expect that such an unreasonable charge would be charged.
On his head.
"If you want to incriminate someone, why bother?"
As he spoke, Bei Mingchen slowly raised his head, looked at Bei Mingyu intently, and said those eight words angrily. His eyes looked particularly stubborn, and he did not mean to admit his mistake at all.
Bei Mingyu became even more unhappy.
"Fifth brother, if you know your mistakes and can correct them, there is no greater good. Why are you so unrepentant?" Bei Mingyu sighed helplessly.
"You often took care of my father when he was ill. I thought you were caring about the relationship between father and son, but I didn't expect that you actually had evil intentions."
As he said that, Bei Mingyu shook his head helplessly. Although he didn't say it clearly, his face showed the look of a child who couldn't be taught.
"My royal brother is aware that when my father was sick, my brother always accompanied me to take care of him. Moreover, all the medicines that my father took were all found by my brother with great effort."
"Yes, you have worked hard to find them all."
Bei Mingyu calmly repeated what he said, emphasizing the four words "efforts" very hard.
Suddenly, Bei Mingyu's attitude changed drastically. His eyes were burning with anger, and he even knocked everything on the table to the ground.
"Bei Mingchen, do you know what those things are? It was those things that killed my father. How dare you say that you don't know anything about these things?" Bei Mingyu roared angrily.
"The medicine I gave my father is definitely useful." Bei Mingchen explained hurriedly, with a firm tone: "Moreover, the imperial doctors were all present at the time, and they all tested the efficacy of this medicine. If you don't believe it, you can take it." Call them and ask."
Bei Mingchen firmly believed that there was nothing wrong with Zhigu, not only because he believed in Xiyan. He believed that the poison that actually caused his father's "death" should have been administered after he took Zhigu and recovered.
"Humph, find someone to confront you? Do you know what the outcome will be?" Bei Mingyu sneered and said. "In this way, your crimes will be made public, and even the world will not be able to protect you."
Bei Mingyu knew that what his father cared about most was the royal family's face, and Bei Mingchen was not only his father's beloved prince, but also Bei Mingyu's younger brother. How could Bei Mingyu tell Bei Mingchen about the scandal of his father's murder? What about the world?
"Brother, please call the imperial doctor here, and I will confront him personally." Bei Mingchen said respectfully, and he naturally had a clear conscience.
"What do you think will be the outcome of the confrontation? If the Queen Mother hadn't helped you to deal with that person, I would be powerless now. Murdering my father is a capital crime, do you know?"
Bei Mingyu taught Bei Mingchen earnestly, and his brows wrinkled inadvertently, and his hands kept tapping on the table. Regicide is also patricide!
Having said this, Bei Mingchen had nothing more to say. His father was dead and it was too late to do anything now.
Bei Mingchen understood very well that all this was the Queen's plan. Now the power was in the hands of the Queen and her party. Moreover, when her father was ill, the Queen was with her father every day, trying to do something or destroy any evidence. , is even easier. Now Bei Mingchen can only suffer the loss of being dumb.
"Do you have anything else to defend?"
"Brother, I have nothing to say." Bei Mingchen gritted his teeth and said angrily.
"Okay, for the sake of you and my brother, I can turn a blind eye to this matter. I hope you will be able to argue right from wrong in the future and stop doing such treasonous things."
"Brother, I obey the order."
"But this matter can't just let it go. I'll fine you half a year's salary. You can accept it."
"Thank you, your Majesty."
Although he felt extremely unwilling to do so, Bei Mingchen still had to bow respectfully to his third brother, now the new emperor, and then left.
Being fined half a year's salary was no small matter, and everyone in Prince Xiao's palace soon knew about it.
"Your Majesty, how could this be possible? I will go find your Majesty to reason."
After Song Jinse heard what happened, she became even more angry. Why did Bei Mingyu bully others again? It was too much. Song Jinse still didn't understand the current situation and still thought that he could be willful. The eldest lady of the family.
"Sese, forget it, things are different now. Now he is the person on the Ninety-Five Supreme Throne. It is better to do less than to do more. Just be fine."
Bei Mingchen grabbed the angry Song Jinse, took her into his arms, and spoke softly. After saying that, he glanced around again. Now, he must protect the people in Prince Xiao's residence and not let everyone be harmed.
harm.
He, Bei Mingchen, has not yet suffered a complete defeat. Although Bei Mingyu is now the one calling the shots in the court, the person who can make the decision in the entire world is still Shuo Jin, and Huanqing Pavilion's status in the world is only increasing.
Bei Mingchen thought that it was time to visit Shuojin again.
Huanqing Pavilion
"Welcome to you, Your Majesty."
Since Shuojin promised to help Bei Mingchen and become his shadow again, he would not break his promise. Therefore, in daily life, Shuojin still addressed Bei Mingchen as "Prince" as before, without forgetting their identity and relationship with him.
That subtle relationship.
"You should know why I came today, right?"
"Xindi." Shuojin answered simply.
"Yes, but did you know..." Bei Mingchen told Shuojin everything that happened in the past two days in the simplest possible language.
"I've heard a little bit about it."
"What do you think about this?"
"Third Prince, uh no, the new emperor probably doesn't have such deep thoughts. There are probably people behind him guiding him. This move is really brilliant. If you hadn't told me, I still wouldn't be able to figure it out." Shuo Jin said to himself.
As if saying.
Forcing Bei Mingchen to donate medicine will not only defeat Bei Mingchen's plan to win over people's hearts, but also take this opportunity to pin unwarranted charges on Bei Mingchen.
It turns out that the queen’s real intention in the whole matter is here, killing two birds with one stone!
In this way, not only can Bei Mingyu inherit the throne naturally, but also Bei Mingchen's power can be suppressed along the way. People cannot be resurrected after death, and those who know the truth are almost exterminated. Now Bei Mingshuo has passed away.
The truth can only be lost in the sea.
Thinking of this, Shuojin felt like he couldn't breathe anymore, and he gasped for air. He had underestimated the Queen and was deceived by her.
"Bei Mingchen, I'm sorry, I didn't do this well. I will definitely help you solve these things." Shuojin took a deep breath and said guiltily.
For a moment, the two brothers fell into silence. The room was very quiet, and the atmosphere was very depressing.
After a long time, there was only a sound, like the sound of soldiers meeting.
Shuo Jin turned around and looked in the direction of Bei Mingchen, only to see Bei Mingchen taking out a dagger. The surface of the dagger reflected Bei Mingchen's eyes full of hatred.
"Chen, what are you going to do?" Shuojin said in panic. He felt like his heart was filled with tightness and he always had a bad feeling.
"It's nothing, don't worry, I won't be so impulsive from now on."
Bei Mingchen didn't explain too much. He just pulled Shuojin and walked to the mirror. He took off Shuojin's mask and carefully looked at them in the mirror for a long time. His eyes were full of affection.
Show an older brother's love for his younger brother.
"You and I are one." Bei Mingchen said quietly, his voice was very small, as if he was talking to himself.
