Chapter 559 The old enemy (2)
He forced himself to suppress his anger. After saying a few words casually, Empress Dowager Yide announced that he would go to court. She was so happy that since the future crown prince of Dajin Dynasty had been decided, why should she hold the affairs of the government here? As soon as Empress Dowager Yide left, the Golden Palace became lively. The people of Xuan Pei's faction suffered a loss under the Xuanli people. It would be strange if they didn't ridicule them. They immediately caught people and started to sarcastically.
Xuan Li ignored the verbal battle here and turned around and walked out of the Golden Palace. He didn't take anyone beside him, and he took very fast steps, and his expression was really distorted and terrible.
"Brother," he heard a familiar voice when he was placed on the corner of the corridor. Xuan Pei walked over from the other side. He had been under house arrest for so long. At this moment, someone suddenly appeared. He must have brought the news and he had the imperial edict. His crime was almost immediately cleared. Those words of father-killing were dirty. After disappearing for so long, the young man appeared again. He was wearing brocade clothes, delicate face, and smiled. However, the noble young man-like temperament faded a lot in an instant. The sharpness hidden in the surface was like a sleeping beast. He originally thought it was just a wolf that had not yet grown up. Now it seems that it was not a wolf, but a young lion who had been lurking and had already begun to have the instinct to plunder life.
The young lion is growing up and has already faintly revealed the look of an emperor.
Xuan Li was shocked by his thoughts. He actually felt that the young man in front of him looked like an emperor? Xuan Pei was just a child with a bad temper. The emperor's look like an emperor? It was incredible!
"My Bastard doesn't look good," Xuan Pei said with a smile: "I have heard about the things in the Golden Palace just now. Why don't my brother congratulate me?"
"Congratulations." Xuan Li said stiffly. There were also some court officials around him watching from afar. How many people are thinking about watching his jokes? Do you have to lose your dignity in front of a child? Xuan Li could not do this, so even if his teeth were about to be broken, the etiquette on his face would still be achieved.
Xuan Pei seemed to have not added enough trouble to Xuan Li, and said with a smile: "I have already told my brother that I have always been lucky, and it may be time to move forward. Brother, look, I was carrying an indelible reputation a few days ago. Now that the truth is revealed, wouldn't everyone be happy? Brother, do you think my luck is very good?"
"Okay." Xuan Li said only one word. The boy in front of him looked at him with a smile. The person with bright eyes was born with a good look. But he had never seen a boy with such a strange heart. Even at his age, he could only endure it, but Xuan Pei was like a poisonous snake, lurking quietly. He couldn't even be forbearing. He didn't think it was patience at all, but he enjoyed the process very much.
Xuan Li stared at Xuan Pei's eyes and suddenly felt that Xuan Pei looked very much like Jiang Ruan at this moment. The woman was the same, smiling, leading people to the edge of the trap, and pushing people slowly, what was ridiculous was that the prey thought they were about to succeed. The silent irony afterwards and the skill of spreading salt on people's wounds was also perfect.
"My brother seems to have important things, so I won't bother you." Xuan Li smiled again, turned around and walked forward slowly: "Goodbye."
The last two words were extremely frivolous, as if there was another sentence faintly: "I have won this game, and it is useless for you to stay, get out..."
Xuan Li stood there and tried hard to calm down his ups and downs. If possible, he would wish he would tear Xuan Pei to pieces at this moment. This sense of shame of being stepped on to the face was enough to make him crazy, but in this madness, Xuan Li maintained extreme rationality, which was really strange. How could Liu Min have two imperial edicts? He had also read the imperial edict today. It was indeed true. What was the imperial edict taken away by Qiman? What was going on? He had to ask Qiman immediately.
At night, in the Canaan Mountains, which are frozen thousands of miles away, in the green poplar villa with spring flowers, is the old man with white hair sitting on the top of the mountain? Looking at the hexagram in front of him, he sighed deeply. He raised his head and looked at the vast starry sky. The stars flashed. His eyes were only one place. Finally, he closed his eyes and shook his head. His voice was hoarse and old: "The new master appears in the world, changes his fate, and is done."
On this day, Dong Ying'er in the palace also received the news. She stood up in disbelief and looked at the slightly panicked maid in front of her and said shrillly: "What, the imperial edict is to make the Thirteenth Prince the Emperor?"
"Empress do not rest ashamed." The palace maid knelt down quickly: "Now everyone in the court knows this, Empress..."
Dong Ying'er sat down on a carved chair, and her whole body seemed to have been pulled away in an instant. What's going on? How could an imperial edict suddenly appear? Why did it be... the Thirteenth Prince be the emperor?
Dong Ying'er herself couldn't figure out why the emperor made this choice. Even though she served the emperor for a long time, she seemed to have gained the emperor's trust. But she had never figured out what the man was thinking about. She also had indirect hopes to make some words, but the emperor was more alert than anyone else, almost exposing her identity, and later she didn't dare to do it.
But at that time, the emperor never showed favor with either of the two princes, as if he had already had another candidate in his heart. And it seemed that he had never communicated with Liu Min alone, so where did this ghost imperial edict come from?
It is certainly not fake that so many court officials have seen it. Dong Yinger is very clear about what this means.
When the emperor was about to enter the imperial tomb, she didn't want to be buried with her, so she tried her best to ask Xuan Li to be a free person. If Xuan Li succeeded, their Dong family would be able to rise to the top and she could also be free. But now Xuan Pei has become the legitimate future crown prince. Xuan Li may be able to lead troops to rebel, but before that, executing her in the name of the emperor was just a trivial matter. She slandered Zhao Jin and used Jiang Xinzhi to involve Xuan Pei. How could Xuan Pei let her go? Thinking of this, Dong Ying'er felt that she was full of chill all over her body.
How could it fail? Could this be her fate? She bet on everything, not friends, shamelessness, and conscience, and finally got nothing. Even if this passing cloud of clouds cannot last long? The Dong family is all in Xuanli, what will happen in the future?
Dong Ying'er suddenly felt a pain in her head. She suddenly felt fainting and almost fainted. She almost fell down. The palace maid on one side was startled, and she quickly supported her with her eyes and hands, and said in surprise: "What's wrong with you, Empress? I'll go to the imperial physician now..."
The people from the Zhao family were also released, and it seemed like a scene to say it. They didn't expect the sudden change in the palace, and they didn't expect that something happened to Dong Ying'er. Someone found a real poison in the southern border in her bedroom. The poison was different from the poison that made the emperor fatal. It was more like a drug addiction. The more you used it, the more addicted it would make people become, and then their body foundation was slowly emptied. That's what Dong Ying'er did. In those days, the emperor liked the imperial meals she made, and all of them were poisoned by her, so she fell ill.
