Chapter 206 Let the Old One Take the Throne
In the imperial study, Murong Xuanyi frowned slightly, looked at Doctor Xiao, and asked, "Doctor Xiao, how is the emperor doing today?"
Doctor Xiao hurried forward, bowed deeply and respectfully to Murong Xuanyi, and then reported:
"Your Majesty, the Emperor... He refused to allow me to treat him, and he kept asking for Dr. Pei to come over. I am really in a dilemma."
When Murong Xuanyi heard this, his face remained indifferent. He just waved his hand gently and said slowly:
"Doctor Xiao, you also know that sick people tend to lose their temper easily. Don't bother with father. Just treat him well with all your heart. Don't slack off in the slightest."
Upon hearing this, Doctor Xiao's forehead was covered with sweat. He gritted his teeth and seemed to want to say more, but didn't know how to start.
Murong Xuanyi had roughly understood what was going on when he saw this. He sighed and said:
"I know your difficulties. How about this? You should step down and treat the emperor first. I will go and persuade the emperor in person later."
After Murong Xuanyi finished dealing with state affairs, he stood up and strode towards Emperor Kang Ren's bedroom.
As soon as he entered the Yangxin Palace, he heard Emperor Kang Ren shouting in a hoarse voice: "I don't want you, a quack, to touch me. I only want Doctor Pei and Fuquan. You all want to harm me."
Murong Xuanyi looked at Doctor Xiao and said coldly, "You go down first."
After Doctor Xiao left, Murong Xuanyi looked at the person on the bed and said, "Father, Doctor Pei, please don't be obsessed with him anymore. Doctor Xiao is a very skilled doctor and will definitely help you recover soon."
After hearing this, Emperor Kang Ren was so angry that he trembled all over. He pointed at Murong Xuanyi and cursed:
"You rebellious son, you plotted to murder my loyal minister, and you are pretending to be so. Even if I die, I will not let him touch me. Where is Fuquan? Call Fuquan to me."
Murong Xuanyi ignored Emperor Kang Ren and took out a packet of medicine powder from his arms and said lightly:
"Father, this packet of medicine was given to me by you when I got married. But it has been so long and I have never used it. Now I want to see what its medicinal properties are."
Emperor Kang Ren opened his eyes wide, looked at him in horror and asked, "You rebellious son, what do you want to do?"
Murong Xuanyi curled his lips with a smile, and said leisurely: "Father, you can relax. You are my father, so I will not give you this medicine.
However, Fuquan has been following you for many years and is loyal to you. This is a gift from you, the Emperor. I believe he will gladly accept it, right?"
When Emperor Kang Ren heard Murong Xuanyi's words, his face turned even paler, and after a long while he managed to say:
"You...you dare! Fuquan is my personal eunuch. If you dare to touch him, I will not let you go even if I become a ghost!"
Murong Xuanyi said calmly, "It's up to you whether to touch him or not. Sign the divorce book and announce to the world the injustice suffered by my grandfather and General Song. Then Fuquan can return to serve you again."
He raised his eyes slightly, glanced at Emperor Kang Ren, and then continued slowly:
"Father, you have worked hard for half your life and are now old. It is time for you to take a good rest and enjoy your life.
In my opinion, it would be better to abdicate and pass the throne to the Tenth Prince. The Tenth Prince has the world in his heart and treats the people with great care. He has also been trained in various departments for so long.
In terms of both character and ability, he is the best choice to take on this important task and succeed the Emperor."
Emperor Kang Ren was even more confused when he heard Murong Xuanyi's remarks. He thought to himself, this rebellious son went to such great lengths to make things happen, wasn't he just coveting the throne?
But how can he let himself pass the throne to the tenth brother now? Why not just pass it to himself?
However, Emperor Kang Ren thought again and felt that if he had to pass on the throne, the Tenth Prince was indeed a decent candidate.
The old man is still young, gentle and soft-tempered, and has no military merits. When he sits on the throne in the future, it will be easy for me to control him. By then, as long as I recover, the imperial power can be easily returned to my hands.
Of course, Emperor Kang Ren would not just follow Murong Xuanyi's wishes. He sneered and said in a grim tone:
"You want me to give up my throne? Humph, then just wait for my death."
At this moment, he was certain that Murong Xuanyi would not kill him, so he had nothing to fear.
At this time, Murong Xuanyi still said calmly: "The fourth brother secretly raised war horses in his own fiefdom and sold them to the Mongolian country, and even secretly raised a large number of private soldiers.
As for the Sixth Brother, he has recently been secretly plotting with Prime Minister Wei to usurp the throne.
Although the rest of the royal brothers are relatively law-abiding, it is not difficult to accuse them of a crime."
"You don't want your own flesh and blood to kill each other for the throne, do you?"
Emperor Kang Ren looked at Murong Xuanyi in disbelief. He had become so desperate to achieve his goal that he even spared no effort to target the underage princes.
He pointed at Murong Xuanyi and angrily shouted, "You are such a heartless person. Those are your brothers. How can you be so cruel and want to frame them with such a despicable method?"
Murong Xuanyi frowned slightly, but his face was still calm: "Father, didn't you treat your brothers in the same way back then? I just followed your example."
When Emperor Kang Ren heard Murong Xuanyi's words, he was struck by lightning and could not speak for a long time. After a long while, he seemed to have found his voice, but he was trembling because he was too excited:
"You...how dare you be so rebellious and bring up what I did back then! I was forced to do so by the situation back then. For the sake of the stability of this country, I had no choice but to do so."
Murong Xuanyi smiled gently, but that smile was filled with endless sadness and ridicule:
"Forced by the situation? Had to do it? Father, weren't your brothers innocent back then? Some of them just wanted to live a peaceful life, and some were just fulfilling their duties as subjects, but in the end, they were suppressed by you one by one and ended up with a miserable end.
The current situation is nothing but history repeating itself, but this time, I do not want to watch tragedy happen again, so I advise you to abdicate and let the tenth elder take over, so as to protect the brothers."
Emperor Kang Ren raised his hand to cover his chest, breathing heavily, "You... don't try to quibble. Everything I did back then was for the country. I'm not like you, who harbors evil intentions and tries to control everything."
Murong Xuanyi shook his head slightly, his eyes full of disappointment: "Father, do you still think that this minister is acting out of personal desire? If this minister really wanted to seize the throne, there would be no need to waste words with you at this moment. There are plenty of ways to achieve the goal.
But I know what the throne means, and I don't want the royal family to be plunged into bloodshed and the people to suffer because of the fight for the throne. The tenth prince has a kind nature, and he will definitely create a peaceful and prosperous era if he succeeds to the throne."
"Father, I have made it very clear to you. You have only one day left out of the three days I gave you.
You must think carefully about this. If you are still so stubborn and refuse to make a wise choice, then I will have no choice but to do things my own way. When that happens, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Murong Xuanyi bowed slightly, and although his tone remained steady, the determination in his words was clearly audible.
Murong Xuanyi did not wait for Emperor Kang Ren's response, and turned around and walked out of the Yangxin Palace with steady steps.
After hearing Murong Xuanyi's words, Emperor Kang Ren couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. He knew very well that he seemed to have no other choice at the moment.
If she still refuses to do as Murong Xuanyi wishes, according to his personality, he will definitely do what he says and do something cruel and decisive.
In fact, Murong Xuanyi was just using psychological tactics to persuade Emperor Kang Ren.
There was no way he would kill those young princes. He just wanted to use this to put pressure on Emperor Kang Ren.
……
In the southwest, Song Yanshu was in the tent, quietly writing a letter to Qin Zhichu. They had an unwritten agreement to exchange letters every seven days. Although Song Yanshu's letters were always well-behaved and nothing out of the ordinary, the words between the lines slowly responded to Qin Zhichu's emotions.
Seeing Jiang Chong and the others returning to Beijing, I also wanted to go back to Beijing, as I couldn’t leave here for the time being.
He was writing a letter when a soldier came to report, "General, two beggars woke up outside the tent and wanted to see you. They said they were from the northwest."
