What Xu Zili said is not an exaggeration. Although the queen appears to be subordinate to the emperor, in fact, the emperor and the queen each have their own means.
The reason why the emperor is so afraid of the queen is precisely because of the queen's methods. He could ascend to the position of emperor without the help of the queen. This queen is not like a prime minister who can be manipulated by him.
So he never dared to get rid of the queen who threatened him, precisely because the queen was not only his wife, but also her methods and the power behind her.
Even though he has been in the position of emperor for so long, he still thinks that the queen is a very scary person. She has ambitions and a large mother clan. Such an existence is enough to threaten his throne.
But it was precisely because of this feeling that I couldn't let this opportunity pass me by.
Xu Zimao knows, so...
"I know that the emperor can be overthrown by using the queen, but if the emperor is really overthrown by the queen, how should we deal with it? Moreover, the queen has a child."
Yes, although Xu Zichen died, she still had a son, Xu Ziming.
If the three of them are not caught in one fell swoop, the revenge of the two of them cannot begin.
"You are saying that we want to execute the Fourth Prince, but executing the Fourth Prince would be too high-profile for us."
Xu Zili thought that it would be good to keep the child. He was only six years old this year. Although no one was around the emperor to teach him, he was still young. As long as he was young, he could be shaped.
Although Xu Ziming, at a young age, can become hope, he can also become despair. If he is well cultivated, he can become their puppet emperor.
"You have imagined this child too simply. Do you think the emperor or the empress can let this child go? The emperor didn't take a fancy to him at first. He waited until he awakened his martial spirit before keeping him by his side to educate him. Do you know why?
?"
Xu Zili understood, wasn't it because of the awakening of the Sun Martial Spirit and the innate nine-level advanced soul power?
"The emperor took a fancy to his talent, and he had the same martial spirit, which aroused the emperor's compassion. Even if the martial spirit of our Zi Huang Tian Slayer Dragon is more powerful than the Sun Spirit, who makes the contemporary emperor
Is he the owner of the Sun Martial Spirit?"
Xu Zili was silent. The owner of the Sun Martial Spirit looked down upon the owner of the Moon Martial Spirit the most. Just like now, just because he awakened the Moon Martial Spirit, his status dropped again and again. But even if his status dropped again, his status would still be lowered.
It is necessary to show the common people that the royal family attaches great importance to the reality of Wuyue Wuhun.
"But now, if..."
Now that Xu Zichen is dead, his half-brother is also dying, so it is easy to target the two of them, because only the two of them are dead, and the remaining two people can get more
Benefit.
"So the person who dies next will be me, and the rest will be left to you. I believe you will succeed, right?"
"But" Xu Zili hesitated, "We are in a good situation now. You can leave the palace secretly, or fake your death. Why choose real death?"
"Only true death can be hidden from their eyes, and you don't know that my body can no longer bear it. If I don't choose to die, then the emperor and empress will think there is something wrong with me. By then..."
Xu Zimao could only choose death. This was the reason why he had been invaded by toxins since he was a child. His body could not bear it, but he could not show it on the surface.
This is a chronic toxin, and it is also a toxin that invades the bone marrow. By the time you realize you are poisoned, it is already too late.
Moreover, Xu Zimao is a child under the Queen's name and will be monitored by the Queen's people every day. Even if he has an independent palace now, he will definitely have the Queen's people monitoring him, and he must take poison every day and night.
Even if Xu Zimao had the ability to choose not to take toxins, he discovered that as long as he did not take a regular dose of toxins every three days, his body would burn and he would suffer tremendous pain.
This toxin is not fatal, but can cause dependence. People who take this toxin for a long time will only erode their muscles and veins, causing the whole person to fester and die. Therefore, it is not obvious that they died of poisoning.
From then on, he gave up not taking the poison. After all, the toxin made his body dependent. If he didn't take it, it would die within three days, but if he took it, it would increase the antidote a little bit, allowing him to
can continue to live.
In order to continue to live, and to prevent the Queen from discovering, Xu Zimao has discovered their true identity, and can only choose to continue like this, continue to lie dormant. I hope that his ally, Xu Zili, has not taken poison.
But he discovered it too late. Except for the second prince, all the remaining princes had been manipulated by the emperor, whether it was himself as the eldest prince or Xu Zili as the third prince.
They can only choose to endure it silently, they can only choose to continue to tolerate it.
"I know my body can't last long, but don't worry, I promise you, I will definitely do it. So can you wait for the day when the royal family is destroyed, and we can..."
Xu Zili couldn't bear to let go. He didn't know what kind of person he was in front of him at first, but he helped him many times. Although he didn't stop himself from taking toxins, he couldn't protect himself.
Moreover, he was in the same situation as himself. He could have been happy, or he would not have been happy if he was born into this family. Like himself, he hated the royal family, hated the queen, or hated using his mother's influence.
of the emperor.
"No, this is my choice. I'll leave it to you next. This is my maid Linglan. When the time comes, Linglan will disguise herself and enter your mansion. Next, you will treat Linglan as me."
.”
"Um!"
Xu Zili also wanted to stop Xu Zimao from choosing the fate of death, but there was no way. If he were in the same situation as him now, he would also choose death.
Now Xu Zichen, who was favored by the queen, is dead. As for himself and the eldest prince, one is not favored, and the other is seriously injured. In addition, he has been soaked in poison for a long time, and his life is not long.
"I understand, leave it to me next. I will definitely destroy the royal family, but I also promise you that while the royal family is destroyed, the lives of the people of this country will not change in any way."
"Ah! I believe you. This may be the last time we meet. Thank you for believing in me. I'm sorry for putting all the burden on you."
