Sitting cross-legged in a water lily, Xiyue smiled in the wind. Qu Mo looked at Xiyue blankly, and suddenly felt that maybe he was wrong to come here.
At this moment, she is isolated from the world and does not often think of those sad things. She is living a normal and wonderful life.
But,
It seems that things are becoming more and more difficult to control. If Xiyue is not told, the Seventh Prince will not rest in peace even if he dies.
"Miss Xiyue, since you left, the relationship between the prince and King Jing has become clear. The courtiers who support them have quickly divided into two factions. The fight is evenly matched, and it is also very fierce.
It almost turned into a battlefield.”
Qu Mo lifted up his robe and sat on the water lily. His eyes were narrowed, and his eyes were full of sharpness. The experience during this period was the most difficult experience in his life.
"You can't understand that such a sacred court has turned into a battlefield without blood. In a matter of seconds, someone lives, and in a matter of seconds, someone dies."
"The prince killed many opponents, and King Jing also eliminated many people. The emperor watched all this happen, but his body was deteriorating. There was no way to stop it, and..."
"Three days ago, the emperor passed away suddenly. Everyone knows that the emperor's death is not that simple, but no one has the courage to say it."
"The palace is tightly guarded and guarded at every level. People inside can't get out, and people outside can't get in. Although the queen fully supports the prince and wants to put the prince on the throne, how can Prince Jing sit still and wait for death."
Xiyue lowered her eyes slightly, her fan-shaped eyelashes, which were as thin as butterfly wings, trembled. She looked into the water, stretched out her hand and nodded at the fish with its head raised.
Xiaoyuer seemed to like playing with Xiyue very much, and then more than a dozen red carp swam over, surrounded Xiyue, and jumped out of the water to play happily.
She doesn't care about these.
Even if the palace fights to the death, it has nothing to do with her.
Qu Mo smiled bitterly and turned to look at Xiyue, who was looking straight at the scenery in front of her.
"The Seventh Prince, originally planned to wait and see from a distance, but... when the emperor's personal eunuch took out the imperial edict and called it to the world..."
…
Xi Yueyue raised her eyes and looked at Qu Mo.
Could it be that the emperor passed the throne to the seventh prince?
"It's not what you think."
Qu Mo shook his head, with fear and confusion flashing across his brows. He stretched out his hand to grasp a petal and said helplessly.
"The emperor did not pass on the throne to anyone. He only said that either the crown prince or King Jing, whoever wins, can inherit the throne, and within five years, the Jin Yao Dynasty must be governed smoothly and the people live and work in peace and contentment. Only then can the opponent be killed.
, Otherwise, the losing party will have to lift the ban and give up the throne to the other party——"
Xiyue blinked her eyes, pursed her lips and smiled in admiration. It seemed that the emperor was also a sensible person. He knew that this war would happen sooner or later and it could not be avoided.
The purpose of issuing such an imperial edict was to protect the Jin Yao Dynasty from decline, and it could also be considered to protect his own son.
After all, the prince and Prince Jing are his two favorite sons.
In this way, no matter who becomes the emperor, they cannot kill the other person. Instead, they must imprison the other person until the world can be stabilized.
But,
Five years later, the world is really settled, and the throne has been firmly established. I believe that the person sitting on the throne will be even less willing to kill the other party, because he wants the other party to watch and watch his peaceful life, causing him pain for the rest of his life.
.
The emperor is smart after all.
"What about the seventh prince? How did the emperor arrange it?"
