The sick king's bride to bring him good fortune

The atmosphere was gloomy. The Crown Prince stormed into the palace, seemingly intending to force the emperor to abdicate. He knew that even the emperor was nothing to him; he only wanted the throne for himself. Indeed, the imperial family was the most ruthless. "Father, you'd better hand over the throne quickly!" The Crown Prince was indeed ruthless, showing no mercy whatsoever. Yes, that was the Crown Prince's nature. "Ahem, I never expected my son to try and seize my throne. Have you considered that you've left yourself no way out? It seems you have no choice but to deal with me." The emperor was heartbroken. He hadn't expected his own son to turn against him. How could this be? He was clearly a good emperor, so why was his son so unfilial? It was a pity that he had managed the empire so well, yet he had forgotten his son. Indeed, the saying goes, "Of all the land, one's own family is the greatest." But now, what had become of his son? He despised him utterly, and now he actually wants to kill him. Ha, how wonderful! He never imagined he'd become like this. It's just a pity he didn't see it clearly back then. The Emperor was already slumped beside the imperial bed, utterly exhausted. He felt that even if he were still healthy, his son would have driven him to his death with anger. "Father, for so long, you've favored Jingnan. But have you ever considered how your son feels? I am the Crown Prince, you should love me the most, yet you protect him at every turn. Now I realize that you didn't want him to be Crown Prince just to protect him, to prevent him from becoming a scapegoat. But have you ever considered your son's feelings? I haven't done anything for you. I'm heartbroken because you only favor your son, and you still haven't repented." The Crown Prince found it laughable that the Emperor hadn't repented. But had he really thought about it? This was all the Emperor's business; what did it have to do with him? Sure enough, there's a saying: "If a son is not taught, it is the father's fault." So now, everything has turned out to be the Emperor's fault. The Emperor could only smile bitterly, never expecting that it would be his fault. Fine, it's his fault, it's his fault. Then shouldn't he make amends? "I've already made you Crown Prince, what more do you want?" The Emperor truly didn't understand, and today he wanted to get to the bottom of this. "No, it's not enough." The Crown Prince was simply going too far. He actually thought that being Crown Prince wasn't good enough? Well then, today he would reason with him properly. "Oh, so you think being the Crown Prince isn't enough for you? Do you even know that this is a position everyone dreams of? You think I made you Crown Prince because I wanted to protect him? Do you think I'm senile? In this world, although family ties are important, I still have some sense of propriety. How can I make all the decisions for myself? At first, I thought you were better than Jingnan because you are decisive and courageous. Therefore, I thought you were a promising talent. If you become Emperor, you will definitely govern the country well in the future." "I was too weak, which led the country astray. I wanted to watch you ascend the throne and then govern the country better. I've already done all this, don't you understand?" The Emperor thought he was being unreasonable because he actually thought he was biased, which was why he made him Crown Prince. But hadn't he considered that the current situation wasn't enough to justify making him Crown Prince? Because he knew all too well that he was an emperor and couldn't go too far, but now, this man had gone too far, even threatening his own position. And now, he was even trying to force him to abdicate! It seemed that their father-son relationship was gone just like that. Hearing this, the crown prince knew that he was lying; he just wanted to win back his feelings for him. But he shouldn't even think about it. "I don't believe any of what you're saying now, but you'd better hurry up and give it to me. Anyway, we'll have nothing to do with each other in the future. Even if you become the emperor, you won't exist anymore. If you agree to give me the throne, I will take good care of you and let you enjoy a life of luxury. But if you're not willing to give it to me, then I'll have to be unfilial. That's how the crown prince is; he's a ruthless person, so he definitely won't accept anyone else. The emperor can only lament now because he never expected his son to turn out like this. How can someone like him be a wise ruler? He'll only be a foolish one in the future. If anyone's to blame, it's his own choice that was wrong." Sigh, this is really good. Anyway, no one is willing to properly protect this country. Although I am the emperor, I can't do anything now and can only stay on my sickbed. That's how the Crown Prince was. Seeing the Emperor already in his current position, he immediately laughed loudly, "If you don't give me the throne, then I'll have no choice but to stage a coup. Of course, I'll also need you to write the will yourself, so that I can rightfully claim the throne without anyone stopping me." Yes, without anyone stopping him—that would be perfect. How outrageous! He actually wanted the Emperor to write a will! But it was true; if the Emperor wrote a will, then he could rightfully ascend the throne. Ascending the throne would be so easy for him. He was originally just a Crown Prince; with just a word from the Emperor, he could become Emperor. Alas, the world has become like this; even family ties are disregarded. "Your Majesty, please leave quickly. Your son will be filial to you." He was trembling with rage. He finally realized that he had let a wolf into his house. His own son had betrayed him. It was truly terrifying. Heh. "But you've really gone too far! Guards, bring the Crown Prince to me immediately! Arrest him! He's disrespectful to me; depose him immediately!" The Emperor was furious. The Crown Prince had gone too far. The Crown Prince hadn't expected the Emperor to actually have someone arrest him. This was perfect; he'd never experienced such treatment before. "Haha, Father, what's the use of doing this? It should be your son who takes you down! You don't have as many men as my family. All you've got is empty talk."
