I want to ruin the country

Li Baoquan did not give in either, staring and saying,

"I am the servant of the Emperor. If the Emperor orders me to die, I will naturally not hesitate. No matter how high your rank is, you are no match for the Emperor. If you push me to the limit, the worst that can happen is blood splattered within three steps!"

Yining secretly admired that a eunuch could have such character.

Yining tried hard to open his eyes. There was chaos in Xianfu Palace. If he didn't wake up and put things right, who knows what the consequences would be.

If he really let himself be buried in the grave, it would be too late to say anything. However, no matter how hard he tried, he just couldn't open his eyes.

He was so anxious that he shouted in his heart, "I can't move at all. God, are you trying to kill me?"

Suddenly I heard someone talking outside.

"What's going on? The Xianfu Palace is so noisy that it's like a theater. How disgraceful!"

As he was speaking, a man came in. It was the emperor's sixth brother, Prince Gong Yixin.

He looked exhausted and I had no idea where he came from.

"Meet Prince Gong!"

A large group of people knelt down in Xianfu Palace.

Originally, when the emperor was around, the ministers did not have to kneel to the prince. However, when the emperor passed away, the only one who could inherit the throne was Prince Gong. He was the future emperor, so who wouldn't try to curry favor with him?

There are really two people who don't flatter, one is Du Shoutian and the other is Li Baoquan.

The embarrassed one is Du Shoutian. If he doesn't kneel, he will definitely suffer in the future. But if he kneels, he is really unwilling to do so.

Prince Gong stood in the middle of the hall, with his hands behind his back, glancing at the two of them out of the corner of his eyes, meaning, what do you want?

Du Shoutian finally couldn't resist the domineering aura emanating from Prince Gong and knelt down.

"Meet Prince Gong!"

He is the king and I am the minister. When you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head!

It's just that the timing is not good. Kneeling down is equivalent to recognizing Prince Gong's identity as the new emperor, and this is what Du Shoutian is unwilling to accept.

Li Baoquan felt the most uncomfortable. He was just a fifth-rank eunuch chief steward, and in the eyes of others, he was nothing.

He had already foreseen his own end. The moment the new emperor ascended the throne would be the moment of his death.

There's no way, it's my fault for opposing the immediate establishment of a new king!

Everything is fate, and we have no control over it. Just die.

He chose to kneel down in front of Yining's couch without saying a word.

Prince Gong certainly would not mess with a eunuch in public. He glanced at Li Baoquan with contempt and said,

"Everyone, please stand up and tell me what you are arguing about."

Everyone got up, Qi Ying said,

"In reply to Prince Gong, the Emperor has passed away. We advocate announcing the news and asking you to take the throne and preside over the government. Some people disagree and are making a fuss!"

Prince Gong glanced at everyone, meaning who disagreed, but he said,

"What on earth is going on? Why did the emperor pass away when everything was fine?"

Du Shoutian Road,

"I was talking to the Emperor when he suddenly fainted. When the doctors came over, some said he was no longer breathing.

This old minister quickly sent someone to invite the prince, and also sent someone to inform the adults that this is what happened! "

After hearing this, Prince Gong pretended to go to Yining's bed to check on her. Tears welled up in his eyes. He cried out,

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? Wake up!"

Yining closed his eyes and did not move.

He called out several times, but Yining just didn't wake up. Prince Gong shed tears and choked up,

"Your Majesty, why did you leave?"

The emperor died, and no one was happier than him. He could be the emperor now!

But why did he cry again? Actually, there is no contradiction. After all, they have been brothers for so many years. They are like real brothers. The fourth brother still loves him very much!

Besides, a proper performance can add extra points!

Qi Ying came over and advised,

"Your Highness, please do not be sad. The Emperor has passed away. Please take over the throne quickly so that you can arrange the late Emperor's funeral as soon as possible!"

In his mouth, the crazy emperor has become the former emperor!

Mu Zhang'a also echoed,

"Master Qi is right. Please ask the Emperor to take charge of the government as soon as possible!"

Prince Gong wiped his eyes.

"Don't the imperial doctors have any other way to save the emperor?"

Qi Ying said,

"The imperial physicians have tried everything. Now, only if the prince ascends the throne as soon as possible can the court be stabilized and the world be at peace!"

Mu Zhang'a and Senglinqin also requested Prince Gong to succeed to the throne as soon as possible. The ministers behind him had no choice but to agree.

"We respectfully invite the Emperor to ascend the throne!"

Prince Gong was delighted, but he pretended to be reluctant and said,

"How can you say that? My brother just ascended the throne, how could he pass away? Did someone plot to murder the emperor?"

As soon as these words came out, Du Shoutian's heart fell into an ice hole!

The emperor fell ill when he was listening to his report. There was no one else around. Prince Gong planned to eliminate him as a dissident before he even ascended the throne.

It's no wonder. I played a significant role in the emperor's ascension to the throne. It's natural for Prince Gong to hate me. I'm in great danger!

But the explanation still needs to be explained, let's try our best! He kowtowed hurriedly.

"Your Majesty, today the late Emperor summoned me in to ask some questions. While they were talking, I suddenly fainted. I immediately summoned the imperial physician, and he confirmed that no one had plotted to murder the late Emperor. Please investigate!"

He no longer called him Prince Gong, but instead called him the Emperor.

Prince Gong was so happy to hear that Du Shoutian also called him "Your Majesty"!

He laughed in his heart again, Du Shoutian, you old fellow, even if all the people in the country come to murder the emperor, you, Du Shoutian, will not do it, and you are still planning to reap the benefits of your disciples!

However, despite his thoughts, he said,

"The late emperor's disappearance was unclear, and we must investigate thoroughly!

Wenqing, you must cooperate with the Ministry of Justice and the Censorate to investigate the cause of the late emperor's death and see if someone colluded with the eunuchs to kill the emperor. You must give me an explanation!"

He has already called himself "I", which is a self-proclaimed title used exclusively by emperors.

Sweat broke out on Du Shoutian's head. He knew that his life was in danger. It was as if he saw the King of Hell waving at him!

The phrase "colluding with eunuchs" also made Li Baoquan see his own fate, and he silently shed tears in front of the emperor's "body".

He made up his mind to die in a moment. Death was better than being tortured!

Qi Ying and others respectfully requested Prince Gong to announce his accession to the throne as soon as possible and accept congratulations!

The drama was over, and Prince Gong was no longer shy and said,

"Well, I can only do it reluctantly!"

Although he made a bitter face, the smile in his eyes betrayed him.

Yining, who was lying down, was really anxious. Once the ascension to the throne was announced, he would become the emperor even if he woke up!

What a bullshit emperor, he is just meat on the chopping board. If you want to be the emperor, then be the emperor!

He puffed up his cheeks and held his breath until he was almost suffocating, then he opened his mouth and wanted to shout out loud.

Unfortunately, there is still no movement!
