She married a dying prince and she won three babies.

Chapter 401 Going Further and Further on the Road to Death

After hearing this, the prince and his son looked at each other.

Shangguan Ziqi nodded slightly.

Turn around and go out.

After a while, they brought in a large box, placed it on the table, opened it, and took out an iron box.

Yu Yuanzheng didn't even need anyone to call her. She sat down in front of the iron box and dialed the fourteen numbers into place. A slight "click" sound was heard.

The emperor watched her movements in amazement.

Only when Yu Yuanzheng opened the lid did he come to his senses.

The emperor couldn't help but stand up and move the iron box in front of him.

I saw only two small boxes inside.

Take it out with your own hands.

One can be opened, but the other has a combination lock, which makes the emperor frown.

It was just as Prince Rong said.

The prince took the initiative to step forward and explain to the emperor that the pistol was the weapon that killed Emperor Canglan.

After the emperor had admired the gun enough, he put it back into the box.

He then picked up the box with a combination lock.

"Hongyi, guess what's in here?" The emperor turned around and looked left and right.

"I don't know."

"Ziqi, what do you think is inside?" The emperor couldn't get an answer from the prince, so he asked Shangguan Ziqi.

"I guess it might be a relic that our ancestor liked the most." Shangguan Ziqi was too embarrassed to say he didn't know like his father.

"Where is the Princess Zhenguo?"

"Your Majesty, I think there is a treasure map inside." Yu Yuanzheng was very ideal.

"Haha, you are indeed a money-loving person. I also think there is a treasure map inside. Can Princess Zhenguo open it?" The emperor is also very poor now, so he agreed with Yu Yuanzheng's guess.

Deep down, he had a million hopes that there was a treasure map inside.

"I haven't figured out the password yet." Yu Yuanzheng also tried many times.

But this didn't give any clues. Although she still thought about the twenty-six letters, she didn't know which words they were pinyin for.

The big box is exactly the pinyin of the two words "Hongmei", but the small one only has six digits, so I don't know which letters the number is.

There are so many words on the box. It's hard to guess.

She had no inspiration for the moment.

Now that she had the most important bomb formula, she was no longer so eager to know what was inside, so she slacked off a bit.

"Then keep thinking about it and try your best to open it. If it really is a treasure map, I will reward you with a big house. If you have another son, you will have a place to live."

The emperor's temptation is unprecedented, and it is obvious that he is encouraging her to have more children.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will do my best."

She couldn't bring herself to give her one tenth of the treasure, after all, the Wei treasury was so empty that it didn't even need to be locked.

The next day, Prince Rong deliberately did not attend the morning court.

According to the news, the fake emperor did not do anything out of line, but handled state affairs honestly.

The prince guessed that he was probably enjoying the honor of being worshipped by all the court officials.

For the next three days, the fake emperor did not make any major moves, but his attitude at the morning court was clearly biased towards the third prince.

At the same time, he also found reasons to suppress the eldest prince.

Since the eldest prince returned to Beijing, he has been helping Shangguan Ziqi deal with military affairs. The emperor has not assigned him a clear mission yet, and he is currently sent wherever he is needed.

Some ministers and some noble families in the capital changed their stance and sided with the third prince.

Among them is the Yong'an Earl's Mansion.

Yu Yunxin didn't get any benefit from the palace.

His niece was conferred the titles of Princess Zhenguo and Marquis Zhenguo, and his nephew became the top scorer in this imperial examination. However, such honors did not benefit the Yong'an Earl's Mansion at all.

He wanted to ask his second brother for help, but he was not in Beijing.

His niece didn't treat him well at all.

And now that she is in a high position, he doesn't dare to act like an elder in front of his niece.

Yu Chaoyang has already moved out of the palace and lives in seclusion, and is of no help to the Yong'an Earl's Mansion.

When he learned that the emperor valued the third prince more and more, his heart warmed.

He secretly gave the Third Prince some secret properties and submitted a letter of allegiance to the Third Prince's Mansion.

It actually worked.

The eldest son, Yu Qingli, finally passed the imperial examination and became a juren last year, but failed the metropolitan examination. The second son, Yu Qinghao, passed the imperial examination and became a scholar, but never made any further progress.

This time they took refuge with the Third Prince, and were soon given relatively satisfactory jobs.

Yu Qingli was arranged by the Third Prince to work as a clerk in his mansion, and Yu Qinghao was also arranged to work as a small prison warden in Jingzhao Prefecture.

These things also reached Yu Yuanzheng's ears.

She just sneered: "You are going further and further on the road to death."

But she had no feelings for the Yong'an Earl's Mansion. She only went there on the day of her return visit and never went there again.

Fortunately, my parents are not in Beijing, otherwise there will be trouble in the future.

However, after Yu Qingsheng found out about this, he came to the palace to find Yu Yuanzheng.

"Sister, do you know about uncle's affairs?"

"know."

"Will anything happen to our second house?" Yu Qingsheng was most worried about this.

He knew that his brother-in-law had the best relationship with the eldest prince. Now that the emperor had changed his attitude, he didn't know what would happen in the future and he was a little worried.

If the third prince fails to ascend to the throne in the future, the second branch of the Yu family will be implicated.

After all, even if the first and second wives split up, they are still the family with the closest blood relationship.

"Don't worry, the emperor seems to be clear in his mind. No matter what happens to the first wife in the future, our second wife will be fine." Yu Yuanzheng still had some confidence in this.

Based on her merits, the emperor would definitely give her this face.

The eldest wife will regret it then.

But she won't bother to remind you.

Should I tell my uncle about the emperor’s plan?

That is impossible.

"Okay." Yu Qingsheng listened to his sister very much.

"You're about to start your shift, right?" Yu Yuanzheng was concerned about her brother's job.

"I'll report in a few days." Yu Qingsheng entered the Hanlin Academy to gain experience as an editor.

It may seem like an insignificant job, but it is the position closest to the center of power.

As the emperor's literary attendant, the editor of the Hanlin Academy was responsible for drafting imperial edicts and confidential documents.

These documents often involve major national policies and decisions. To do this job well, one must have a deep literary foundation and keen political insight.

Therefore, most of the top three scholars in each session entered the Hanlin Academy.

However, there was no one to promote him, and it was very likely that he would never get a chance to be promoted in the Hanlin Academy. He would just be doing the compilation and revision of history books.

But as Yu Qingsheng was Yu Yuanzheng's younger brother, the emperor would naturally pay more attention to him. So he didn't worry about his future at all.

"Okay, Dad and Mom will be back soon, and it's time to finalize your marriage with your sister. Is there a girl you like? I'll go and propose to you." Yu Yuanzheng saw that her younger brother had grown up a lot.

Although he was still young in her eyes, he was fully capable of getting married in this day and age.

"There's no rush. I'm still young." Yu Qingsheng blushed a little when talking about marriage.

"Okay, this is not up to you. Wait until Mom comes back and talk to her."

Feeling relieved, Yu Qingsheng played with his three nephews for a while before leaving.

Two days later, the fake "emperor" still did not take any special action, and the real emperor could not live in the palace forever.

He was worried that the fake man had gone so crazy that he thought he had really fallen off the cliff and died, and went to visit his concubine, which would have disastrous consequences.

We have to make that fake guy take action as soon as possible.
