Quick Wear: Everyone knows I am a good person
Chapter 718: The Noble Lady in the Male Literature 12
"The Third Prince has a humble background, but he is very capable and has a strong character. He will never be willing to be an obedient puppet."
"The fourth prince has the support of aristocratic families, and his temperament is arrogant. He is on the opposite side of our side, and his biological mother is still alive, so he is not a qualified chess piece."
"As for the fifth prince, his biological mother died early and he has a weak character. Without the support of his maternal family, he can't stand up at all. So as long as his maternal family is eliminated, he will become..."
Thinking of what Shu Jiao analyzed in the temple that day.
Xiao Mi's eyes became more and more sharp, "He will become our puppet."
A person with no ability, no temper, and no backing, the most useful tool among the royal heirs.
The queen closed her eyes slightly.
She was analyzing which situation would be better for her: the emperor being alive or the emperor dying.
After a while, his eyes became stern, "Very good. Then the most urgent task is to find out the real culprit in the case of the prince as soon as possible."
Your Majesty, Your Majesty~
Considering the relationship between you and me as husband and wife, I will protect you from the pain of illness, and you should also lend me a helping hand!
The queen became interested and added fuel to the fire.
Soon, the capital was in chaos.
Shu Jiao sent a letter to her family in advance, asking the old couple to pretend to be sick at home, saying that they were "old and had caught a cold from crying for the prince", and not to get involved in the subsequent disputes and grudges.
The old couple were also obedient. They probably sensed the danger that was about to come, so they just pretended to be sick at home and didn't go out.
Shu Jiao was far away in the temple, but she did not miss any news.
Xiao Mi shared the "progress of seizing power" with her every now and then.
In just half a month, the fifth prince's maternal family was executed for the crime of murdering the crown prince.
The fifth prince cried until his eyes were red and he kept shouting “It’s unfair”!
The emperor was furious and put him in solitary confinement.
Not long after, the fifth prince came crying in the palace, saying that he had evidence to hand over to the emperor.
But the emperor was suffering from illness and had a splitting headache at that time, and didn't want to see him at all.
As a result, the fifth prince made a bold move.
He held a sword to his own neck and threatened to see the emperor, otherwise he would commit suicide and let the whole world know that the emperor had forced his own son to death.
emperor:……
Gan!
What sin did he commit in his previous life to deserve meeting such a "filial son"?
The emperor felt his head hurt even more.
He couldn't avoid seeing her.
Because he had a premonition that he was about to die. He had been a wise monarch for most of his life, but on his deathbed he was blamed for forcing his own son to death... How could he accept that?
So, the emperor met with the fifth prince alone.
I thought the Fifth Prince was just crying to his maternal family, but I didn't expect that this weak and useless guy in the past would actually produce evidence to prove his maternal family's innocence.
The emperor was shocked. "Where did you get this evidence?"
"I found it out myself."
The fifth prince lowered his head, his body even trembling a little. The madness brought by grief disappeared without a trace the moment he saw the emperor.
How dare he?
He actually dared to threaten his father? !
OMG!
Can he walk out of the palace alive today?
"Your son, your son..."
The fifth prince swallowed and said, "I am lucky."
emperor:……
That's it?
Where is the courage you had to shout and threaten him in the mansion before?
"okay."
The emperor waved his hand in boredom, "I know about this matter, ahem… you can go back now."
I thought my son had suddenly become more courageous, but after all this fuss he was still the same as before.
Unworthy of reuse!
"Father! I am innocent."
The fifth prince knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily, "I did not instruct grandpa to kill the prince. My grandpa, grandma and several uncles are all innocent. Please issue an order to clear their names!"
"Well, I will decide for you."
The emperor waved his hand, looked at the evidence brought by the fifth prince, which was a frame-up by the fourth prince, and sighed lightly.
After the fifth prince left, he leaned on the table and coughed for a long time.
The taste of blood between his lips and teeth made his face look very ugly.
"Someone, go and get the queen."
The emperor sat on the chair, breathing weakly, his thin and frail body could hardly support the bright yellow dragon robe.
"I have met the emperor."
The Queen left quickly.
The emperor drove out everyone else in the hall.
When the queen entered, she felt something was wrong, especially since the emperor did not let her stand up for a long time after she paid her respects.
She was more cautious.
"Did you do it?"
The emperor said softly.
The Queen hesitated, "What?"
"The Prince's Death."
The emperor's four light words caused a hint of surprise to appear in the queen's lowered eyes.
"If the prince was not my own son, I would also praise you for doing a good job. Ahem..."
The emperor covered his chest and took a few deep breaths. "Use this as an excuse to defeat the main force of the noble families. The relatives of the fourth and fifth sons, the relatives and vassals of the prince... You are becoming more and more capable."
He knew that Lao Wu didn't have the ability to find evidence.
He also knew that the third and fourth brothers did not have the ability to kill the prince.
So the culprit is obvious.
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."
The queen stood up, her red lips raised slightly, "Isn't this exactly what the emperor wants?"
"Besides, the prince has been fighting with you for many years. Being able to contribute to your efforts to eradicate the power of the aristocratic families can be regarded as the prince's filial piety to you as a son."
The queen found a chair and slowly sat down. "You and I have been married for many years. You know me well. How can I not know you?"
"Just tell me, what do you want me to do?"
Doesn’t the Queen know whether the Emperor has feelings for the Prince?
Have.
But definitely not much.
Bringing this matter out clearly is nothing more than holding onto the evidence to make conditions with her.
The emperor lowered his eyes and looked at the queen's bright face for a long time, coughing and laughing for a while. It was hard to tell whether he was relieved, angry, or something else.
"Good. Good... ahem... I have personally trained a qualified queen!"
He and the queen were married by imperial decree, and after marriage the couple became a business partner.
The queen stabilized the rear area, gave birth to children, engaged in lady diplomacy, and built relationships to help him ascend to the throne; he was in charge of external affairs, did his job conscientiously, killed his competitors, and finally succeeded in ascending to the throne.
But after he came to power, he found out that being an emperor was really difficult.
The nobles were powerful, and the aristocratic families had joined forces to threaten the imperial power.
At that time, the queen had no ambition yet. She was content to be a virtuous queen in the harem and still do the work of stabilizing the rear area.
Until he became seriously ill and the crown prince was useless, he had to use the queen's hand to weaken the power of the aristocratic families.
Fast forward a few years.
Now the queen's eyes are filled with the determination to gain power.
"I am deeply grateful for your guidance, Your Majesty."
The Queen said sincerely.
If the emperor had not taught her personally, how could she have learned the ways of an emperor and handle all the affairs of state?
She was truly grateful to the emperor.
But the living emperor was holding her life by his finger and treating her like a puppet master.
The dead emperor is the good emperor, and the white moonlight worthy of her lifelong remembrance!
