Chapter 167 King Xuan's plan is exposed
System: [Host, when did you know this? You just returned to Beijing these two days? ]
All the civil and military officials were shocked. They secretly glanced at Emperor Mingde's expression, but the emperor had a blank expression and their face could not be seen clearly.
King Xuan felt nervous. This little girl knew about it again and always ruined his plans.
The Minister of War's legs were shaking violently at this time. It was all over. If the little princess knew, it would be equivalent to His Majesty knowing. The entire court knew too. What should he do now?
King Xuan and the Minister of War were shocked and frightened at this time, but Xie Chuyue's voice came again.
[I only found out after I came back. King Xuan is a member of the royal family. If he were to do this, it would be too big and easily arouse suspicion. The Minister of War was also serving in the court, so it was inconvenient for him to take action. So they could only let the Minister of War's son Zhou Yi take action. After all, they were young. Even if they were discovered, they would think that it was normal for young people to play with beauties. So all of this was done by Zhou Yi. He imprisoned these beauties and trained them...]
The more the civil and military officials listened, the more terrified they became. The emperor has been on the throne for so many years, and his oldest son is already eighteen or nineteen years old. Why doesn't King Xuan give up?
And this Minister of War is also confused! Forget it, they should just play it safe.
Emperor Mingde's eyes were terrifyingly gloomy, but he was truly his good brother. Since he ascended the throne, he did not want to kill all his brothers, so he left behind some who were relatively well-behaved.
But he never thought that they had never stopped thinking about it. Now that he, the crown prince, could ascend the throne, this group of people were still thinking about snatching his throne. He was too soft-hearted.
If his Yue'er hadn't revealed this, he would probably still be kept in the dark.
Xie Yunqi looked at his sister and admired her even more. When he received a letter from his royal sister last night asking him to block the news, he had some guesses. Later, he asked the secret guard to investigate and found out the truth.
He suddenly realized that his little sister was more suitable for the throne than him.
The system was very confused, so it asked: [Host, why do they train these girls? Who do they want them to seduce? Are they planning to seduce your brothers? ]
Xie Chuyue rolled her eyes speechlessly: [You think too much. My brothers have excellent self-control. They can't be seduced by these women. In fact, they train these beauties with the intention of sending them to the officials' residences after they are trained, and then use these beauties to control these officials.]
The civil and military officials were just watching the show at first, but they became more and more frightened as they listened further. They thought this wave was aimed at them, and these beauties were to be sent to their mansions, so they had fallen into King Xuan's trap.
They secretly cursed King Xuan in their hearts, "If you want to die, don't drag them with you."
At this moment, they were very glad that King Xuan was caught red-handed by Xie Chuyue, otherwise, all of them would be in trouble.
Emperor Mingde had heard Xie Chuyue's inner thoughts before, but he was still very angry when he heard it again.
Those women were given to loyal officials in the court, and then they used these beauties as threats to make civil and military officials submit to them.
His good brother really has a good plan.
The Minister of War turned pale at this moment, and he fell to his knees on the ground with a thud. It was no use for them to explain now, as everyone heard the little princess's thoughts.
King Xuan had a gloomy face, but he did not kneel down.
Emperor Mingde looked at Prince Xuan, who was still pretending to be calm, and said, "Sixth brother, don't you have anything to explain? I asked you to stay in the imperial city because of our brotherhood, but you colluded with officials and were ready to rebel at any time. Do you think that I am too kind-hearted as an emperor or something else?"
"I have nothing to explain. My royal brother, if you suspect me, you might as well produce evidence." King Xuan concluded at this moment that Emperor Mingde had no evidence in his hands. As long as there was no evidence, the emperor could not do anything to him.
The emperor smiled coldly. He knew what King Xuan was thinking without even thinking about it. He turned to Fudesheng who was standing beside him and ordered, "Fudesheng, go and get those things."
"Yes, I obey your command!" Fudesheng responded and turned to leave the Golden Palace.
Everyone was wondering what did their Emperor ask Fudesheng to get?
In this oppressive atmosphere, no one dared to breathe.
King Xuan was also a little surprised. Did the emperor really have evidence in his hands? Impossible, the emperor must have heard the voice of Xie Chuyue, the stinky girl, and did this. Yes, it must be like this, he silently comforted himself in his heart.
Everything must be based on facts. Without evidence, the emperor cannot convict himself openly.
Thinking of this, King Xuan felt a lot calmer.
The most abominable thing is that Xie Chuyue can't be killed no matter how hard he tries. All the assassins sent to assassinate her have died. Damn it!
As everyone was anxiously waiting, Fudesheng came in from the side hall holding a wooden box and handed the thing to Emperor Mingde. After Emperor Mingde opened it and confirmed it, he asked Fudesheng to read it to everyone.
"Fu De Sheng, please clear up the confusion for all the ministers so that King Xuan and the others can understand clearly when they die."
"Yes!"
Fudesheng took the rice paper from Emperor Mingde and tore it open. He stood in front of all the officials and read, "A year ago, King Xuan tried to win over the prime minister to help him seize the throne, but the prime minister refused. After that, King Xuan sent assassins to assassinate the emperor at several palace banquets, but the assassination failed. He even poisoned His Majesty. His Majesty has always been mindful of the brotherhood and has not pursued the matter. But this time, King Xuan actually sold innocent girls privately, trained them, and won over court officials to try to usurp the throne. He deserves death!"
At first, when the prime minister heard that he was being wooed, he almost knelt down on the spot to show his loyalty. Fortunately, he was reminded later that he had refused, so he finally felt relieved. But the more he listened, the more frightened he became. This King Xuan did not seem to be stupid. He actually assassinated the emperor openly and even poisoned the emperor.
Fortunately, he had a keen eye and did not cooperate with King Xuan, otherwise he would have been dead.
The first time he was Prince Duan, and this time he was Prince Xuan, he almost got himself into trouble.
After hearing this, all the civil and military officials moved away and kept their distance from King Xuan and the Minister of War. They did not want to be implicated.
Xie Chuyue was puzzled at this time. She didn’t remember telling her father what happened last night. How did her father know about it?
Wait, could it be the leader of the Imperial Guards who said that? It must be, otherwise the Emperor would not know.
Xie Yunqing: I have seen stupid people, but I have never seen anyone as stupid as this.
Xie Yunshen: Although this method is a bit stupid, if it succeeds, it won't cost any soldiers, which is good. But the premise is that they are not fools, and King Xuan should not treat them as mentally retarded and deceive them.
He felt that as long as he could control all the civil and military officials in the court, no one would dare to oppose him, and it would be a natural progression for him to become emperor.
Xie Yunqi: Looks like he has to investigate all the civil and military officials in the court again.
"Sixth Brother, what else do you want to say now?" Emperor Mingde's tone was terribly cold.
King Xuan knew that the situation was hopeless, so he threw in his teeth and pointed at the emperor and said angrily: "Why is the throne yours? Back then, I was better than you in every way, but my father was so blind that he didn't let such an outstanding son like me become the crown prince, but let you, the crown prince with only the title of legitimate son, succeed to the throne. I don't accept it. Why? The throne should be occupied by the capable!"
