"Father, I have just received news that my second uncle and my fourth brother intend to rebel."
Xue Qinghe did not directly answer Emperor Xue Ye's question, but bowed down to report a shocking news.
"What did you say."
Emperor Xue Ye's voice suddenly rang out, and a flash of blood instantly lit up his tired and old face, with a look of disbelief all over his face.
"Cough cough cough cough..."
Emperor Xue Ye coughed violently, but Xue Qinghe still bowed and saluted on the spot, without any intention of coming forward, as if waiting for his order to arrest the rebellious ministers and traitors.
"You, you control the bedroom."
Emperor Xue Ye was lying on the bedside with one hand supporting his sick body. He was worthy of being an emperor, but in a short period of time, he thought of many things from what he just heard.
Everything that Xue Qinghe has now comes from his delegation of power, and as an emperor who has been in charge of the empire for decades, it is still easy for him to judge some situations.
"Father, there is nothing I can do now."
Xue Qinghe's eyes revealed his symbolic sincerity, "The second uncle and the fourth brother are eyeing the throne, and now they even intend to rebel. If I don't do this, if something happens to you, there will probably be infighting in the palace. I
I guess that’s definitely not what you want to see.”
"It's a joke. Xue Xing and Xue Beng intend to rebel. They don't even have any military power, so what are they using to rebel."
Emperor Xueye looked at the son in front of him coldly, feeling that he was so strange, "Qinghe, tell me why you did this.
I have handed over most of the power of the empire to you. Knowing that you and Xuexing have conflicts, I even took away the military power from your second uncle for this reason. Now you are only one title away from the throne, why can't you wait so much?
Woolen cloth."
"Father, it's not that I don't want to wait, but that my second uncle and fourth brother are unwilling to do so."
When Xue Qinghe saw that Emperor Xue Ye spoke so straightforwardly, he no longer pretended to be a filial son. He straightened his back and looked at Emperor Xue Ye, "What I said just now, that the second uncle and the fourth brother are planning to rebel is not a lie. It's just that.
They do not want to rebel against you, my father, but they want to rebel against me. They do not want to recognize me as the crown prince.
You have always known that I had conflicts with my second uncle. He relied on his elders many times to point fingers at what I did. Even if you gave him military power, he still wasn't convinced by me. If that's all, that's it.
But he shouldn't hang out with his fourth brother.
I really didn't expect that the second uncle actually taught the fourth brother to hide his clumsiness. He is the fourth brother's teacher. Can you believe it? Everything about Xue Beng was just an act.
His playboy side is all disguise, and even his soul master talent is the same. It's not that he can't break through the soul sect, he just keeps hiding his talent. Tell me, what is their purpose for doing this."
Emperor Xue Ye looked at Xue Qinghe in disappointment, and after a long silence, he sighed and said, "Is it just because of this? Just because of this, you must put them to death? Once the crime of rebellion is convicted, even if you are a member of the royal family,
It is also inevitable that he will die."
"Father, isn't this enough?"
Xue Qinghe looked at his father excitedly, "Why did my second uncle train my fourth brother to hide? Isn't he just trying to take away my position? You have already designated me as the crown prince, but they still do this. This is against you."
Will, they are just trying to rebel."
"Qinghe, if I tell you, my father knows about the avalanche."
Emperor Xue Ye was silent for a long time, and sighed calmly: "I asked Xue Xing to teach Xue Beng the Dandy. I just hope that he can live his life peacefully and not have any illusions. He will not go.
Do you understand that he fights for things that don’t belong to him?”
Xue Qinghe was slightly stunned when he heard what Emperor Xue Ye said, and then he smiled. His smile was completely different from usual. He stared at Emperor Xue Ye and said coldly: "So, you already knew it."
"well!"
Emperor Xue Ye sighed, "What do I know? I just don't want to see you brothers fighting each other, so I let Xue Beng take the initiative to give in. After all, you are my eldest son and the child I have devoted the most effort to."
Xue Qinghe forced a smile and bowed to Emperor Xue Ye again, "Father, I understand your hard work, but my second uncle and fourth brother don't seem to be willing to follow your arrangements.
I just received the news before I came to the palace that my second uncle and my fourth brother were preparing to attack, and my second uncle had already contacted his old subordinates..."
"How can it be."
Emperor Xue Ye was completely shocked when he heard the news. He originally thought that what happened today was just that his eldest son sensed a hidden threat to his fourth son, so he was impulsive. However, he did not expect to get such news.
He knew very well that his second brother Xuexing was not an impulsive person, and now he would actually do something like this. It was no wonder that Xue Qinghe came to the palace in advance to lay out the layout. There must be something going on here. Xuexing was not such an impulsive person.
, and the prince should not...
Emperor Xue Ye stared at Xue Qinghe suspiciously, and after a moment he said coldly: "Qinghe, you still have something you haven't made clear to your father.
Your second uncle is by no means an impulsive person, and you have been taught by me for many years. Qi-nurturing Kung Fu should not be like this, so why are you so impulsive and directly lead the troops here? You have something that you didn’t tell me clearly."
Xue Qinghe's body trembled slightly, then he bowed and worshiped again: "Father, my second uncle and fourth brother did commit rebellion tonight, please give me the order."
Seeing Xue Qinghe's reaction, Emperor Xue Ye realized that something was fishy. He couldn't help but said angrily: "Tell me what happened. Xue Qinghe, what did you do?"
Xue Qinghe explained to Emperor Xue Ye, "Father, my son has not done anything harmful to the empire, but his second uncle and fourth brother listened to rumors and wanted to slander..."
Emperor Xue Ye narrowed his eyes slightly and said coldly: "Is it just slander? Why are you afraid of mere slander? Could it be that that is the truth. What happened to the boss, second child and third child was probably your fault."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! When Xue Qinghe heard this, he couldn't help but trembled, and cold sweat broke out on his vest. The original Emperor Xue Ye was like a sick tiger. Although he was powerful, he was weak to the naked eye.
, not very bluffing, but at this moment he suddenly became much colder, and just a few words made Xue Qinghe feel the pressure.
"Father, I don't understand what you are saying."
The biggest secret in Xue Qinghe's heart was exposed, and he felt extremely panicked. He was still very afraid of his father, so when he got the secret news that Xue Xing and Xue Beng were going to the palace to report to Emperor Xue Ye, he chose to let it go.
beat.
But he never expected that before Xue Xing and Xue Beng could report it, Emperor Xue Ye actually told the secret in a positive tone, which naturally made him extremely frightened.
"I guessed it before, but now I am sure."
Emperor Xueye looked at Xue Qinghe like this and sighed: "Although our Tiandou royal family's bloodline is not as strong as the barbarians from Xingluo who have strong men from generation to generation, it is not too weak.
Xue Ke is the weakest in your life, but she can grow up smoothly as a girl. Normally, the second and third children would not die so easily.
Since there is something wrong with their premature deaths, I, as a father, must investigate. However, this matter involves palace and royal secrets, and I definitely cannot entrust it to ordinary people, so I handed it over to Xuexing.
Xuexing didn't find out much, but for safety reasons, I asked him to hide himself in Xue Beng. He has been hiding for so many years, and he has grown up smoothly."
Emperor Xue Ye glanced at Xue Qinghe when he said this, and then continued: "Actually, from these things, I have roughly guessed the truth behind the death of the second and third children, but I am unwilling to reveal it.
Do you know why? Because you are also my son.
Qinghe, you are my eldest son, and I have determined your position as the crown prince a long time ago. You are the prince, the powerful prince, and you are only one title away from that position, so why can't you wait."
"Father, father."
Xue Qinghe was shocked by Emperor Xue Ye's words. He didn't expect that his father had known so many things for a long time. When he was panicked, he could only shout. When he called his father's name again, he was a little calmer.
Much louder.
He calmed down a little and thought a lot, and finally spoke again: "Father, this is not because my son is aggressive, but because his second uncle and fourth brother are unwilling to lose power. I have received the news, and they are going to the palace to report to you.
Rumors that I killed my second and third brothers."
"So, this is not a rumor at all, right?"
Emperor Xue Ye closed his eyes in pain. Xue Qinghe did not respond, but he had guessed from his son's reaction that this was the truth.
Although he had already made speculations in his heart, when everything was really confirmed, Emperor Xueye was still extremely heartbroken.
His two sons were killed by his eldest son, and the brothers were fighting each other. It seemed that this matter would continue tonight. He was in extreme pain at the moment.
"Qinghe, why are you forcing me?"
Emperor Xueye looked at the eldest son whom he valued most with disappointment, "Do you know? Even if Xue Xing and Xue Beng come to report this matter tonight, I will not abolish your position as Crown Prince.
Xue Beng may indeed be unwilling, but I will not support him. You are the prince I chose, and I have already given up my power to you, so how can I change my mind because of these things."
Emperor Xue Ye said what he said sincerely. He had already guessed about the death of the second and third princes, otherwise he would not have let Prince Xue Xing teach Xue Beng to pretend to be a playboy. From many clues, he had already guessed the truth.
But there has been no solid evidence.
But even if he guessed some things, he had no intention of deposing Xue Qinghe. Instead, he relied more and more on and even cultivated the prince. In recent years, he even took the initiative to hand over power. It was obvious that he really wanted to pass the throne to him. He has such a will
How could a determined emperor change his mind because of these things?
