Abandoned daughter takes charge of the family, so rich that even the best people can't envy
Chapter 392 Sharpening the Knife
Liu Renxiu was practically irritated by her brazen words. "Oh, that's a lie! Even if my father didn't pass the throne to me, it wouldn't be your turn as a princess."
"Snapped"
The eldest princess slapped the chair and stood up.
Her face was twisted, and her eyes were filled with madness. Pointing at the portrait of the late emperor hanging in the hall of the Immortal Palace, she said hatefully:
"Back then, the Cui family's Saintess left a prophecy that the Liu family's reign of three hundred years had come to an end. Even if they violated the Heavenly Gang's plan to borrow fortune, they could only continue for a hundred years. Only the birth of a female leader could reverse the situation and resume the prosperity of the Liu family."
She patted her chest and said, "In our generation, the Liu family's empire has reached a critical juncture in its four hundred years. As the eldest daughter of the emperor, I am the rightful empress."
As she spoke, she sneered again, "That evil bastard Prince Yin used the four maxims to make a fuss. In fact, it was my father who changed it on his own initiative. He just felt that if his daughter became emperor, the imperial power would be lost. Hahaha, but he didn't expect that Prince Yin was not his son. Hahaha..."
The eldest princess pointed at the portrait of the late emperor and laughed with a gloating look on her face.
Borrowing luck is the biggest secret of the royal family. I didn't expect that the imperial sister also knew it, and even said it in front of so many people. The imperial sister was simply crazy.
Liu Renxiu's face looked very ugly.
The Grand Princess continued, "The Saintess of the Cui Family has always been very accurate in her predictions. My Liu Family has been ruling for nearly four hundred years now, right? So, for the sake of our Liu Family's continued prosperity, Emperor, please abdicate."
Liu Renxiu sneered, "Is the throne going to be passed on to you?"
"No, I don't want it."
"Don't you want it? Didn't you always say you wanted to be the empress? Why are you being so hypocritical? Or do you have self-awareness and know that even if I pass the throne to you, the generals guarding the border in Cangwu will not agree?"
The Grand Princess glanced at the late emperor's portrait and said, "Hmph! I really don't want to be an empress. What's so good about being an emperor? I'm always busy and can't even sleep in during the morning court sessions.
But I refuse to accept it. My father is partial. Since he would rather pass the throne to an outsider of unknown origin than let me be the empress, then I will be the empress dowager of Cangwu.
My son is the emperor, hahahaha, father, I don't want to be the empress anymore, I want to be the emperor!"
Liu Renxiu sneered, "A man who disregarded the lives of the people in the city and resorted to such despicable means as poisoning is worthy of being the emperor?"
The eldest princess chuckled softly, "It's just diarrhea for a few days. It's their good fortune that I can help them clear their stomachs."
Emperor Liu Renxiu looked at the Grand Princess and asked, "Is it true that it will heal on its own in two days?"
"Of course, what I want is the throne, not the lives of the people in this city. When my son ascends the throne, I will say that this plague is a punishment from heaven because you are unworthy of your position and have violated the harmony of heaven.
Then you realized that you were guilty of grave sins and unfit to be king, so you passed the throne to the eldest prince.
As soon as my son ascended the throne, the people of the city, who were suffering from diarrhea, recovered without taking any medicine. This just proves that my son is the chosen one of heaven, and he will benefit all people.
How is it? Is the emperor satisfied with this result? "
Hearing this, a man in black behind the Grand Princess raised the corner of his mouth and revealed a cold smile.
Liu Renxiu breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it wasn't a rare disease that couldn't be cured, he would be relieved.
Suddenly, there was a "thump" sound, and a person was thrown in through the window. Everyone looked and saw that it was Zhu Beichen.
It turned out that Zhu Beichen was anxious to rescue the emperor. Seeing that the gate of Xianji Palace was guarded by masked men in black, he went around to the window. Naturally, there were also men in black guarding outside the window.
Zhu Beichen knew that everyone in the palace was sick and unable to get up. If he wanted to save the emperor, he had to risk his life to lure away the masked man in black outside the window and let the guards escort His Majesty out through the window.
However, he overestimated his body. His rapid running made his vision go black, and he fainted in front of the masked man in black, which was equivalent to walking into a trap.
If Song Jinxiu were here, she would know that he was dehydrated and had hypoglycemia due to the extreme exercise.
After a brief coma, Zhu Beichen found himself being carried up and thrown into the hall through the window, lying next to Eunuch Hai.
Seeing Zhu Beichen, the emperor hurriedly asked, "What's going on outside the palace?"
Zhu Beichen was depressed that he had started off badly, but fortunately those people did not tie him up, probably because they were too disdainful to tie up a sick and fainted person.
Hearing His Majesty's question, he quickly said: "Everyone has been poisoned, but we have found out that the poison is called the Haunted House."
"What? The poison from the haunted house?" Eunuch Hai, lying on the ground, screamed and then cried, "Your Majesty, I know the symptoms of the poison from the haunted house. I'm afraid I have to go first."
A doctor exclaimed, "It's over, it's over. There's no antidote to the poison in the haunted house. We're all going to die now."
The Grand Princess scoffed, "What ghost house poison? I didn't expect that Lord Zhu from the Imperial City Office would be full of lies. My brother, I don't have time to waste on you. Just bring out the Imperial Seal."
……
At this time, on the road back to Beijing, a black horse was galloping, followed closely by twelve black-clad guards.
This person is Song Jinxiu.
The reason why the thirty-six guards became twelve guards was because the other twenty-four guards and Su Chuan and the others were all in the space.
After all, they are just traveling without sleep, and it would be tiring for so many people to travel together. It would be better for Song Jinxiu to travel alone and let them rest in the space. She can let them out when there is real danger.
But the secret guards disagreed. They were imperial guards, so how could they let Song Jinxiu run around outside alone? What if there was any danger and the master didn't have time to summon them?
At Song Jinxiu's insistence, both sides took a step back, and the thirty-six guards were divided into three shifts, taking turns to enter the space to rest. In this way, there were always twelve guards accompanying the master, and they felt at ease.
Su Chuan frowned: "It's a pity that the master can't enter the space to rest."
Song Jinxiu: "I entered the space from somewhere, and when I came out, I was still in the same place. There's nothing I can do about it."
The treasure-hunting rat Junjun sent a telepathic message: "If the master can form a pill, the space may be able to be upgraded, and then he can teleport."
Song Jinxiu: "I can't even think about building a foundation, let alone forming a pill? She's been relying on Su Mo's training every day these days, and has just barely touched the threshold of the fourth level of the Qi training stage. Now that she's separated from Su Mo, there's no telling when she'll be able to break through to the fourth level."
The thirty-six guards took turns to rest, but Song Jinxiu could not, so she was the most tired these days.
However, a forced march was nothing to her body. What worried her was the safety of His Majesty and her family.
Song Jinxiu traveled day and night, regardless of rain or shine, eating and sleeping on horseback, galloping all the way, changing horses but not herself.
The closer she got to the capital, the more uneasy she felt. Suddenly she had a dream, and when she woke up she had forgotten everything in the dream, but she only remembered one sentence:
The imperial star is swaying, and Mars is high up. Suddenly, a madman sharpens his knife at night! His mission is to reform the emperor, so don't look at him. The city is full of wronged souls, which is unbearable to look at.
Song Jinxiu frowned, her heart trembling.
