After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom

The queen, who had been reducing her presence, looked at the emperor and said softly, "Your Majesty, although this incident was thrilling, it also allowed you to see the human heart clearly."

No one knew who the prince's gang was before, but with today's abdication drama, all of the prince's people have surfaced, saving them the trouble of killing them one by one in the future.

The emperor nodded slightly, "Today's crisis is all thanks to the Third Brother and the nobles. I will definitely reward you generously."

"Why are you panicking?" Prince Rong said angrily, "I have 30,000 troops outside the city. As long as I give the order, we can break through the city gate in an instant and kill them all!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Xuan walked in from outside the door in armor.

"Prince Rong, are you talking about your thirty thousand militiamen who have no fighting power?"

There was still fresh blood on his body, and his wheat-colored face was full of coldness.

Prince Rong seemed to have thought of something, and his expression suddenly changed, "What did you do to them?!"

"Rebellious ministers and traitors should be killed!"

Lu Xuan clasped his fists and bowed to the emperor, "I am late in coming to your rescue, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

The emperor looked at the resolute-faced young general with a gloomy expression.

With 30,000 people, the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion can take it down on its own. If they want to rebel, the imperial city will be almost useless.

He smiled, "General Lu, there's no need to be polite. Today, thanks to your Zhenguo Mansion, otherwise the Imperial City would be a river of blood today."

How could Lu Xuan not hear the emperor's insinuation? He replied expressionlessly, "It is our duty to protect the people of the Great Zhou. Your Majesty, thank you for your praise."

After saying that, he straightened up.

The emperor glanced at everyone in the hall and said sternly, "The crown prince is plotting treason, and Prince Rong is aiding and abetting the tyrant. They should be executed according to the law, and his followers will not be tolerated."

All the ministers shouted in unison: "Your Majesty is wise."

Everyone was kneeling on the ground, only the Crown Prince and Prince Rong were standing upright in the center of the hall.

One moment he was dreaming of becoming the best in the world, and the next second he became a prisoner.

They think they are doing perfect things, but in the eyes of others they are just clownish.

The Crown Prince looked dejected, while Prince Rong stared straight at the Emperor, "I am not as skilled as you. I lost to you 20 years ago, and I still lost to you 20 years later."

His face was fierce, "But even if I die, I will never die in your hands!"

After saying that, he put the sword across his neck with a determined look and wiped it hard!

Blood gushed out, Prince Rong's eyes widened, and his burly body fell straight backwards.

With a "bang", the long sword fell to the ground.

Everyone looked at his eyes that were open even after his death, and they all sighed for a moment.

Things are unpredictable. If the emperor had not killed his father to seize the throne, he would be the one controlling the world now.

The prince looked dejected, and his back, which had been straight until now, now bent as if it was weighed down by frost and snow.

He did not have the courage like Prince Rong to commit suicide, so he could only sit on the ground helplessly.

The emperor felt very disappointed with him because of his behavior, but he was also angry that he wanted to kill his father and seize the throne.

After a long silence, he finally spoke in a hoarse voice, "Prince, I had high hopes for you, but you did something so outrageous."

The prince laughed bitterly: "Father, now that things have come to this, I have nothing to say."

The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. What else can he say?

Saying more will only add to the ridicule.

The emperor sighed, "I will spare your life for the sake of our father-son relationship. From now on, you will go to Qingshan to guard the imperial mausoleum."

The prince looked up in surprise when he heard this.

Father didn't kill him?

why?

He is not...

"When we go to the imperial mausoleum, please recite sutras and pray for your mother."

The emperor remembered the promise he made to the late queen before her death, that he would spare his life no matter what.

He turned his eyes away from him and looked around at the ministers. "Today's event, you all have great courage. General Lu has made great contributions in protecting the emperor. He will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold and a thousand acres of good farmland."

Everyone thanked him, but they felt a little strange.

Although General Lu had made great contributions in saving the emperor's life, he was only rewarded with some personal belongings and not even given a higher rank.

Many people glanced at the three generations of the Zhenguo Mansion with their peripheral vision, and their minds were filled with different thoughts.

The emperor glared coldly at his third son, who had a calm face, and his majestic voice sounded again, "The third prince remained calm in the face of danger and has made great contributions in saving the emperor. He will be promoted to Prince Rui."

The third prince was not at all happy about being conferred the title of prince. He clenched his hands tightly under his wide sleeves, his nails digging into his flesh. The pain prevented him from losing his mind, and he forced a smile on his face.

Those who have been crowned kings in the past have never had the chance to ascend to the throne of the Eastern Palace. His father is angry with him and has completely blocked his path!

"Thank you, Father."

"emperor!"

The queen did not expect that the emperor would give her such a reward, and a look of surprise appeared on her well-maintained face.

"Why, Queen, are you dissatisfied with my reward?"

The emperor's sinister gaze made the queen shudder. She concealed her panic and forced a smile, "No, I just want to thank the emperor for his kindness on behalf of my son."

"Humph, it's best not!"

The emperor snorted coldly, then looked at the ministers below him and said, "The palace banquet ends here, everyone can disperse."

All the prince's gang were taken to the Ministry of Justice prison by the Imperial Guards. The rest did not dare to stay any longer. They just glanced at the third prince with a stiff smile and hurried home without stopping.

This year's palace banquet was so thrilling, but they were still discussing what happened tonight in groups of three or four.

"It would be fine if the prince just wanted to die, but the emperor actually made the third prince a prince!"

Everyone sighed in amazement. They were even more surprised than to hear that the emperor only rewarded the Duke of Zhenguo with some personal belongings.

"The Third Prince has been planning for many years and finally managed to dethrone the Crown Prince, but now he has gotten this result."

"Alas, the Third Prince has now come to nothing and has completely lost his chance of getting that position."

"And those who were coerced by the prince also suffered an unprovoked disaster."

"Yes, fortunately Madam Lu reminded us in time, otherwise I'm afraid we would be doomed."

, Bai Youyou and the old lady sat in the carriage, both with smiles on their faces.

"Today we have killed two birds with one stone, which is worth celebrating."

Bai Youyou deliberately pinned the blame on the Third Prince for the Crown Prince's abdication in front of the Emperor, just to make the Emperor dislike the Third Prince.

The other princes are still young, and as long as Lu Lingye has no chance, their Duke Zhenguo's Mansion will have more time to plan.

The old lady looked at them lovingly, and felt a surge of pity when she thought of how hard they worked all day.

"It's finally over. It's a good chance for you to have a good rest."

Bai Youyou held her arm, leaned her head against her arm, and said in a sweet and innocent tone: "Great, then I will sleep until I wake up naturally tomorrow."

There have been a lot of big and small things happening these days, and she has slept less than three hours a day. Now that the situation has been settled, there is nothing else to do for the time being.

The old lady stroked her shiny black hair and smiled lovingly, "Okay, sleep until you wake up naturally."

Some were happy and some were sad. The third prince returned home and was so angry that he smashed the study to pieces.
