Chapter 16 Princess Dangchongxi began to rebel 16

The two of them were loving each other in Prince Yong'an's palace, but the palace became a busy mess.

Xia Xun fell, and the successor was Degui.

He was also appointed as the eunuch by Fu Youan, the confirmed new emperor.

There are a few unreasonable idiots who can get away with in the palace. The matter is so obvious, how could they not know that Degui has defected to the new emperor so early.

Naturally, no one caused him any trouble.

At nightfall, Degui finished the work at hand, turned around and went to look for Xia Xun in the prison.

The other party was still wearing the same fine clothes as when he was imprisoned, but his clothes were still in tatters. He was lying on the ground stained with blood, his face was pale, and the clear and watery porridge was placed next to his hand.

Obviously, he was tortured during these days.

Xia Xun has never suffered such crimes since he followed Chu Dingkun, but even now, he still wants to make a comeback.

But now, no one in the palace takes him seriously anymore.

When Degui came in from outside, the corners of his lips raised when he saw Xia Xun like that.

When Xia Xun saw him struggling even harder, there was even a little hope in his eyes. At this time, he was still thinking about Degui saving him.

"Degui, is the palace stable?"

Xia Xun asked eagerly.

He still couldn't figure it out. He and the Queen were obviously allies when facing the two traitors Fu You'an and Qiao Chen, so why did the Queen turn her gun and point it at him.

Degui curled his lips, but the smile did not reach his eyes, "My godfather has never been whipped in the past few years since he has been in the palace. How does it feel?"

"Don't say whether these are available or not!"

Xia Xun frowned, and when he took another look at Degui's clothes, his heart suddenly skipped a beat, "Did you betray me?"

"Look at everything my godfather said. He was doing things for the emperor. He was not betraying anything."

It's just one for the deceased emperor and one for the new emperor who succeeded him.

Degui sneered and admired Xia Xun's embarrassment for a while before his face turned cold and said, "You were so happy when you slapped me with the whip, now, I'm happy too."

Xia Xun is not a good person.

He seems to have a high position and is favored by the emperor, but how can he not be unpopular when he is a slave?

When he was angry, he turned around and took out his anger on his godsons. If anything went wrong, he would kill them.

I don’t know how many godsons have died in Xia Xun’s hands over the years.

At that time, Degui didn't know it and was pushed out to block his death. However, he was in good health. He had been tortured by Xia Xun for more than several years, and his body had scars one after another that could not be erased.

Every scar is his history of humiliation.

He used these scars to gain Xia Xun's trust, and he was also waiting for an opportunity to kill Xia Xun.

So when Shen Jiao handed him a hope, he couldn't wait to grab it.

Facts have proved that he was right.

"Seeing that you are unhappy makes me happy."

Degui narrowed his eyes with a smile, "I forgot to tell you, everyone has explained it, and there is no point in carrying it to death. After the late emperor enters the imperial mausoleum, you~"

He hadn't finished speaking, but the ridicule and teasing in his eyes made Xia Xun understand that there was only one way for him to die.

"Have I not promoted you enough over the years?"

Xia Xun didn't know where he got the strength. He stood up and grabbed the railing. He looked at Degui with red eyes, "You are all in the same group. You are the real culprits who killed the emperor!"

"It's the queen! The queen killed the emperor..."

Degui raised his eyebrows and hit him on the joints of his hands with a wooden stick. Xia Xun instantly cried out in pain.

The noble man paid no attention to him. He only turned to the jailer and said, "It's time now. Not only does the prisoner speak harshly, but he also dares to blame the queen. His heart is so cruel that he must be tortured to pry open his mouth!"

The jailer hurriedly bowed and said "yes", and everyone was hanging around in the palace. He didn't want to offend the popular person in front of the new emperor just for the sake of being a prisoner.

With his response, one can imagine how miserable Xia Xun's next days will be.

However, no one sympathized with him.

You must know that Chu Dingkun is not really incompetent. After all, he has been taught by Qiao Chen for so many years, and with the assistance of Qiao Chen and Fu Youan, it is not difficult to maintain the prosperity of Beirong.

It's a pity that Xia Xun followed Chu Dingkun for too long.

He gained Chu Dingkun's trust, he was greedy for the power he had obtained, and his ambition gradually grew. He was unwilling to succumb to Qiao Chen and Fu You'an, and even planned to blackmail the emperor to order the princes.

He instigated Chu Dingkun, Qiao Chen, and Fu Youan into alienating their hearts, and even wanted to get rid of them.

The monarch and his ministers, who were supposed to complement each other, turned to the path of antagonism and killing each other. How heartbreaking!

But what the heck, none of this worked anyway.

The courtiers quarreled for a long time, and asked Qin Tian to choose a good and auspicious day. Before Chu Dingkun was sent to the mausoleum, that night, the queen was so sad that she crashed into the coffin and died in front of the ministers.

"The emperor treats the virtuous with kindness and appoints the virtuous. Since he has handed over this Beirong country to King Yong'an, I believe that King Yong'an will make Beirong last for thousands of years and attract all nations to come to court."

"I and the Emperor were married to each other. They had a deep love for each other and harmoniously harmonized with the piano and harp. But now that the Emperor has passed away, I cannot sleep at night, cannot sleep or eat well, and am heartbroken."

"I would like to live and sleep with the emperor and die in the same cave. I am willing to be the southwest wind and die in your arms forever. I also hope that you will live up to the emperor's trust, be loyal to the new emperor, and jointly build Northern glory!"

"Beirong Yongsheng!"

The queen's eyes were red, and she stood uprightly. She said a series of words without giving her ministers a chance to admonish her.

As the courtiers' faces became increasingly ugly, she knocked on the beautiful coffin, causing blood to flow everywhere. She closed her eyes and smiled gently.

It seemed as if I really got my wish.

The Chu family knew this was a scam, but they felt distressed when they saw it, and they felt really sad for a while.

Fu Youan and Shen Jiao, who were standing in the front, looked at each other and realized that Queen Du Xindao was really brave and not afraid that if her strength was not used, she would die on the spot.

The courtiers were all silent when they saw this. After a while, they all praised Chu Dingkun and the queen, praising the queen for being both virtuous and virtuous.

When a literati opens his mouth, when he scolds people, he can make them call them mother-in-law, and when he praises them, he can lift them to the sky.

The queen is the latter.

"When she said that, it would be hard for you to change your national title."

Shen Jiao frowned, unhappy that she was tricked by the Queen at the last moment.

Fu Youan didn't care about this at all. He shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter. I didn't want to change my country's name."

Seeing that Shen Jiao still looked unhappy, Fu Youan led her aside and said, "As long as this country is dominated by me, what does the national title matter?"

"What's more, Chu Dingkun ceded power to me. If the country's name is changed, those old men will quarrel again and we won't be able to live in peace."

He was referring to the group of noble officials, each one more stubborn than the other, and would rebuke them if they didn't get what they wanted, just to leave their name in history.

Fu Youan is annoying them to death.

Shen Jiao said softly, "I know, I think your temper has improved a lot."

Fu Youan touched the tip of his nose and said, "There is nothing we can do."

He is going to be the emperor soon, so he can't remain like he was in the army. The two are very different, and his temper always needs to be restrained.

So, in fact, he was not very happy to be the emperor.

But being forced to this point, there is really nothing we can do.
