I want to ruin the country
Chapter 8: A false alarm!
Yining knew that Du Shoutian's resignation was also meant to repay a favor and avoid suspicion, but he didn't want to let him go yet, so he waved his hand and said,
"No, it's true that the teacher is in poor health, but I can't let the teacher go yet.
Teacher, please help me for another two years. Once the world is at peace and Du Han can handle things on his own, I will naturally allow you to live out your days in peace!"
Du Shoutian repeatedly requested to resign, but Yining refused. Du Shoutian realized that the emperor was not lying, so he stopped insisting and knelt on the ground to express his gratitude.
Zaiyuan and Wenqing both understood that the emperor was very satisfied with Du Shoutian's performance today, so he promoted Du Han.
At this moment, the eunuch came to report,
"Your Majesty, Prince Gong has woken up and is requesting an audience outside!"
Yining waved his hand.
"As long as he's alright, let him go back and rest. I'm tired too!"
When Du Shoutian and the other two saw that the emperor didn't want to see Prince Gong, they thought it was a warning to him!
Yining Road,
"You guys go back too, we'll talk later if there's anything!"
Prince Gong fainted from anger just now. After being carried away, the imperial doctors gave him a few injections and he woke up.
Then he took his pulse and said it was scattered, so he prescribed a prescription and boiled some Chinese medicine, and he was fed a stomach full of the medicine soup.
Then he said everything was fine, and Prince Gong was in a dilemma.
Thinking about how I had behaved like a clown just now, I felt like I really didn't know how to face the emperor.
The ugly daughter-in-law had to meet her parents-in-law. She couldn't leave without saying goodbye, so she had to bite the bullet and ask to see the emperor.
Unexpectedly, the emperor didn't see him. Although he was unhappy, he was secretly glad that it was better not to see him to avoid embarrassment.
After returning to the mansion, Yi Xin paced back and forth in the room with a worried look on his face.
He has been feeling very lost these days. The throne has fallen into the hands of his fourth brother, and he hates it!
When the old emperor secretly appointed the crown prince, he and his fourth brother were the ones he valued the most.
According to historical records, "The fourth prince was 'eldest and virtuous'.
Although the sixth prince was born out of wedlock, he was "extraordinarily gifted" and was proficient in both literature and martial arts.
As they grow older, the competition for the crown prince becomes more and more intense.
Du Shoutian knew that his fourth disciple was not as intelligent and talented as the sixth, so he told Yining to please his father with kindness and filial piety.
Once, the old emperor led everyone to hunt, and Du Shoutian taught the fourth child to deliberately not shoot an arrow.
The emperor asked him why, and he said that it was the breeding season for birds and beasts, and he could not bear to harm them for fear of offending nature.
The old emperor was very happy to hear this and praised him for his kind heart!
From then on, the old emperor secretly made up his mind to pass the throne to him!
The sixth brother Yi Xin is still in the dark, thinking that he is better than his fourth brother in both literature and martial arts, and that the throne of the emperor must be his!
But when his father was critically ill, he summoned a group of ministers to the throne, opened the box that decided the fate of the two brothers in front of everyone, and announced the imperial edict for the establishment of the crown prince:
"The fourth prince, Yining, is appointed Crown Prince.
You, the king and the ministers, why wait for my words? You should all support me with all your heart and put the national economy and people's livelihood first, without caring about anything else. This is my special order."
This news was like a heavy hammer hitting Yi Xin's head, and he was stunned at the time!
Finally, he understood that the reason why his father chose his fourth brother as the successor was actually "benevolence and filial piety".
This made him laugh and cry, and he was also angry and embarrassed. Without any ability, how could he rule the world by relying solely on benevolence and filial piety?
But no matter how hard he tried, the result was unchangeable. The person sitting on the throne was still the stupid fourth brother in his mind.
Although the fourth brother is as close to me as a brother, compared with the country, what does that little bit of affection mean?
Next, he was keeping vigil for his father, and he had no intention of cheering. The frustration in his heart was beyond words!
Prince Gong hated the heaven, the earth, and his father, but what he hated the most was his fourth brother!
What gives you the right to sit on the throne and accept everyone's congratulations? That position should be mine!
Mu Zhang'a, Qi Ying and Seng Linqin also had conflicts with the Fourth Brother. Qi Ying came to him several times to discuss taking extraordinary measures.
Yi Xin was not confused. The situation was hopeless now. He had no chance of winning if a real war broke out. Besides, what would it matter even if he took over the world?
Just like Zhu Di, the Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty, who seized the throne but was labeled a traitor and was criticized. For various reasons, he was reluctant to agree!
Unexpectedly, God was merciful and good news came. The emperor suddenly fell ill and fell into a coma.
Then the insider in the palace came with the news that he was not unconscious, but had no breath at all!
This was something I never expected. My eldest brother Yi Wei, my second brother Yi Tsuna, and my third brother Yi Ji are all dead. My fifth brother was adopted out. My seventh, eighth, and ninth brothers are still young and ignorant. I, Yi Xin, am the only one who can inherit the throne!
God is really helping me. I didn’t expect that I, Yi Xin, could sit on the throne of the emperor with full legitimacy. He is so happy!
Then, Du Shoutian sent someone to inform him that the emperor was seriously ill and asked him to go to the palace as soon as possible.
Knowing that there would be no mistakes this time, he was not in a hurry anymore. He wanted to take one and make the ministers beg him to sit on the dragon throne.
He asked the servant to answer.
"Just say that I'm out for something, and go look for me immediately!"
Afterwards, he happily sat at home waiting for the ministers to come and ask him to inherit the throne!
But all I got after waiting was loneliness. Half a day passed and there was no news at all!
"Damn it, these old bastards, what are they dawdling about for!"
In the end, he became so impatient that he could not bear it any longer. He deliberately changed into dirty clothes, pretended that he had just returned, and hurried to the palace.
Unexpectedly, just as he was about to be announced as the emperor, the emperor woke up.
Oh my god, are you trying to kill me? My dream of becoming an emperor has been completely shattered once again. It's like a cat catching piss and getting nothing in return!
In the palace, after Du Shoutian and the others left, Yining ordered,
"Li Baoquan!"
"The slave is here!"
"Send someone capable to find out what Prince Gong did today!"
"Whoo!"
He then ordered,
"You have to ask quietly and don't let the news leak out, okay?"
Li Baoquan understood,
"The slave obeys the order!"
Yining walked to the mirror again and traveled through time. He didn't know what he looked like now. He wanted to see what changes had taken place in his appearance.
In the mirror was a pale, thin and slightly swollen face with high eyebrows, a long middle part, and double eyelids that were double-lidded. You had to look closely to see them. The eyes were set quite far apart, the mouth was protruding, and the lips were relatively thin.
The face is still quite handsome, Yining is quite satisfied with it, but in later life her height of 1.85 meters has been reduced by at least 10 centimeters, to about 1.75 meters!
Just make do with it. I’m the emperor. Who the hell dares to complain about being short?
I just wonder what that evil woman Catherine would think if she saw me like this!
After a long time of hard work, it was already noon, and Li Baoquan asked,
"Your Majesty, would you like to serve the meal?"
Yining nodded. He was looking forward to his first meal after traveling through time.
