Chapter 423 The shameless emperor

He was even thinking that when Murong Li was free, if he could travel more to the other two countries, he might be able to bring back a lot of things.

Xifeng Kingdom is poor now and must find a way to replenish its treasury.

Especially when I thought about asking for two million taels of gold, I felt comfortable all over. However, only one million taels was handed over to the treasury, and my heart ached very much.

Uncle Su and An Yi twitched at the corner of their mouths. The emperor was so shameless that he could even say such things for money. He really cared about his son the most. Who could see that the emperor cared about Murong Li's son?

No one believes this.

It's just that the two of them didn't dare to refute the emperor, so he let him speak for himself.

"Your Majesty, what should King Yi do with him?"

Uncle Su asked inappropriately, didn't he feel most sorry for his son Murong Li, the son who wanted his life? Let's see what he will do with Murong Yi this time.

The emperor's face collapsed after hearing this. He was very happy at the moment. Why did he bring up that unlucky thing? He glanced at Murong Yi who was kneeling outside and said: "Nine Eunuchs, let him come in. I want to see

Let’s see if he still has the ability to force me to put a jade seal on him.”

After hearing this, the Nine Eunuchs trembled and glanced at Murong Yi who was outside. He secretly thought to himself that King Yi was so courageous, but he was a little smarter than the former prince. He knew that he needed an imperial edict to suppress King Li.

The prince only wanted the emperor's life.

It's just that King Yi was not very lucky. Just when he was about to succeed, he was ruined by Murong Li.

Ninth Eunuch sighed for the emperor in his heart. He was probably the most miserable emperor in history. From time to time, he would play a drama of his son poisoning me.

He came to the door tremblingly and said to Murong Yi: "His Royal Highness Prince Yi, the Emperor has invited you."

After saying that, he shook his head, saying that this time Murong Yi would be killed by the emperor and there would be no future for him.

Of course Murong Yi heard what the emperor said. He pursed his lips, got up and followed the Nine Eunuchs closely into the hall. After entering, he knelt down in front of the emperor with a loud plop, as if he was waiting for the emperor's words.

Whatever he says now is in vain, it is better not to say anything at all and save his life first.

Given the emperor's urinary nature, the most he can do is deprive him of his title of prince and throw him into the clan's mansion.

If he makes excuses or pleads for mercy again, the emperor will definitely be even more angry, fearing that he will be beheaded directly.

Murong Yi was now in a state of embarrassment, his fine clothes were wrinkled and dirty, his wounds were red and swollen, the blood stains had dried, his hair was a little scattered, a few strands of hair were still hanging on his forehead, and his face was a little pale, looking at him

Biting her lips tightly, she looked pitiful and embarrassed.

I didn't know that he was an ambitious person, so I would definitely feel sympathy for him.

It's a pity that the emperor will not be deceived by his appearance, let alone have any sympathy.

This son who usually looked like a clown, unexpectedly turned out to be a ruthless character. He looked at Murong Yi coldly and said coldly: "Lao Wu, how do you think I should punish you?"

Murong Yi lowered his eyelids, kowtowed heavily, and said with a resigned look: "I already know my mistake, but I will be punished by my father."

But he thought in his heart that as long as he kept the green hills and was not afraid of running out of firewood, he would one day turn around. This time, he failed because of his lack of experience.

The emperor snorted coldly: "Huh, it's natural to punish you. Originally, I thought that I only had two sons, you and the fourth son, so I wanted to choose a suitable heir between the two of you. But, the fifth son, you are too cool."

I am disappointed. As long as you behave well, there is no chance. But you actually poisoned me while the fourth child was not in the capital, and forced me to stamp you with a private imperial seal.

This is a capital crime for you.

It's a pity that your luck is still a little bit worse, and you will fall short in the end. Since ancient times, success has always led to success and failure. Since you have failed, then just accept your fate.

From now on, Murong Yi will depose the title of King Yi and demote him to the rank of common people. All the people in the former Prince Yi's Mansion should move to the Zongren Mansion, and you should all reflect on it inside."

Murong Yi's heart sank. He didn't believe the emperor's retort, but luckily, he immediately thanked him and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing me."

Uncle Su and An Yi secretly curled their lips after hearing this. Even though they were like this, they were just demoted to common people and locked up in the clan mansion, reluctant to take his life.

The benevolence of the emperor's wife, since ancient times, the centipede insect has died without being stiff, leaving him alive is another disaster.

The two sighed, maybe the emperor was old and he only had two sons, some of whom were still in his belly. They didn't know if they were destined to grow up.

Some kindness is also understandable.

The emperor sighed: "I hope you can take care of yourself, come here."

Immediately a group of personal guards came in.

"Send Murong Yi and everyone from Prince Yi's mansion to the clan's mansion."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The emperor glanced at the personal guard token on Murong Yi's waist and said, "Bring me the personal guard token he is wearing."

"yes."

The personal guard stepped forward, took off the token from Murong Li's waist, and respectfully presented it to the emperor.

"Give it to him."

The emperor didn't answer and pointed at An.

"yes."

The bodyguard came back and held it in both hands for An Yi.

An Yi didn't answer: "Your Majesty, this commoner cannot be accepted."

"Take it, I can't control this if you put it on me. Just hold it, and my safety will be left to you."

"Take it, the emperor is right."

Uncle Su looked at An Yiyi. The emperor handed over the personal guard token, indicating that the emperor was going to make Murong Li the crown prince. Sooner or later, he would also give the personal guard token.

"this?"

An Yi hesitated for a moment, but accepted it, and said solemnly: "I obey the order."

The emperor then smiled with satisfaction and waved to his guards, who immediately carried Murong Yi out of the palace.

"in addition."

The emperor said to Jiu Gong: "Old man, I will draw up an imperial edict later and make the fourth son the prince. After the fourth son returns to the capital, let him inherit the throne. I am old and don't want to go to the hell gate again.

Unfortunately, I just want to live a peaceful life for a while."

"Your Majesty, no!"

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, Jiu Eunuch and Uncle Su said at the same time.

The emperor sighed deeply, looked at them and waved his hands and said: "It has been more than twenty years since I succeeded to the throne. In these years, I have not lived a stable life. I also know that my time is running out, so I want to do something for you."

Live a peaceful life by yourself for a few days."

The emperor was really tired of living like this. For the sake of the throne, he almost died at the hands of his own son several times. Think about it, how sad it is.

Also, he knew in his heart that although his body looked fine on the surface, it was actually broken on the inside. He wouldn't live long. Instead of letting his sons kill each other like this, it would be better to step back and let Xifeng Country be stable and no longer rise.

Civil unrest.

He also wanted to fulfill his promise, go to the imperial mausoleum to accompany the queen, and live an ordinary life as a family of three.
