Reborn as the crippled king's favorite

Chapter 75 The Emperor is preparing to appoint a crown prince
Huigui died.

She did not reveal the mastermind behind it, and in the end even Concubine Qi stopped trying, allowing the furious emperor to order the guards to beat her to death.

As soon as Hui Gui breathed his last, his body emitted a strong stench.

This is a side effect of the incense from the Western Regions. It can be fragrant during life, but after death, the incense will cause the body to decay quickly. The stench from the internal organs will continue to stink even if it turns into bones.

This is what is called eternal infamy.

But death is like a lamp going out. Maybe death is a kind of relief for Huigui people.

However, the emperor did not vent his anger because of her death. Not only did he not save the last of his flesh and blood, but his body was also greatly affected.

All the doctors from the Imperial Hospital were summoned, and they came to the conclusion that the drinking and sex had depleted the emperor's energy, and it would be difficult for him to conceive in the future.

Since the emperor vomited, he has obviously felt that his energy is not as good as before, and he feels more than five years older.

This was the main reason why he was so angry that he beat Hui Guiren to death.

He cherished his life very much. He encountered several assassinations in his early years, and once his throat was almost cut. Concubine Qi put out her hand to block it for him. Even now, Concubine Qi still has a deep and long scar on her hand.

It was already dawn, but the emperor was not sleepy at all, sitting quietly in the imperial study.

Because there was no order, everyone stood outside and did not dare to leave.

In addition to Hui Gui, the emperor also killed Hui Gui and many of the servants around Yun Bin with a stick. Everyone was in trembling fear.

"His Royal Highness Prince Ling, His Royal Highness the Second Prince, Your Majesty calls you two to come in."

The prince came out to deliver a message.

The second prince's heart was beating wildly.

This night was full of chaos, and my father was probably very angry. He suddenly asked himself and Jun Yuyan to go in, fearing that he would doubt them.

"Father."

Jun Yuyan is neither arrogant nor impatient, and behaves generously and politely.

The second prince also had a gentle demeanor.

The emperor sat on the dragon chair, the door was closed, and the morning light was still very dim, so the emperor's expression could not be seen clearly.

"It has been 30 years since I became emperor. In the past few years, the sea, rivers and rivers have been clear, and the world has been peaceful. I have begun to relax and enjoy myself. Unexpectedly, my body has collapsed in just a few years. Now someone wants to kill me. You still want me to die on a woman’s body without integrity and embarrassment, boss, second brother, who do you think hates me so much behind Hui Gui’s back?”

The emperor's voice sounded calm, and no one knew what he was thinking.

He is an emperor and has been an emperor for 30 years. When he wants to hide something, no one can guess what he is thinking.

The second prince's heart was tense. He didn't know if his mother had left any clues for his father to find out.

"Father, because there is no evidence, I don't want to speculate on others with malicious intent. I am wondering, could there be someone from the vassal country in the Western Region who wants to harm my father?"

The emperor's eyes fell on his face.

The second prince's heart beat like thunder.

"Boss, do you also think that those blind subordinate countries want to kill me?"

Jun Yuyan said: "I think they don't dare."

"Oh? Why don't you dare?" Jun Yuyan said: "The princess of the Western Regions whom they sent to marry is already on her way. I heard that this princess is extremely favored and has a beautiful appearance. In order to please your father, the King of the Western Regions will do whatever it takes to please you. If you have made up your mind to give up your love, how could you unite with the concubines in the harem to harm you? Wouldn’t you also be harming the princess?”

The emperor nodded: "Then who do you think wants to harm me?"

"I don't know, but it is obvious that this person is killing two birds with one stone by letting Hui Gui hurt you. If Ni Duan was not discovered by the concubine and Ajiu, your body will still be affected by Hui Gui, and an accident may occur in the end. And Now that you have learned about Hui Guiren's treacherous plot, you will definitely have a preconceived dislike for the coming Princess of the Western Region. Regardless of whether the other party's treacherous plot succeeds or not, you can stay behind the scenes and enjoy the fruits of victory."

"You're right. This man hid deep enough and stretched his hands far. I sent people to guard Yun Bin, but he was still taken advantage of. This is not killing two birds with one stone, but killing three birds with one stone!"

The emperor slapped the armrest hard, his voice sullen.

He glanced at Jun Yuyan and the second prince: "I only have four adult sons. Among them, you two are the most important to me. Although the third and fourth sons went to the military camp for training, it is a pity that the status of my mother's family is not high. I have not Consider them as candidates for the crown prince. But today, I changed my mind."

The second prince's heart suddenly tightened and his breathing became rapid.

Jun Yuyan's expression did not change at all, he was extremely calm.

I heard my father continue to say: "My health is not good, I'm afraid I won't live for a few more years. I'm going to take the school test for the four of you and decide on the position of the prince as soon as possible."

……

On the way back to the palace, Murong Jiu suppressed his drowsiness and curiously asked Jun Yuyan: "So, did your father guess that the queen was behind the scenes?"

"There is no complete evidence in the royal family, and no one dares to draw conclusions, including my father. The palace is full of frame-ups and intrigues, and the forces behind the queen are complicated. A single move can affect the whole body. Even if my father is suspicious, he will not What kind of punishment will be given to the Queen?"

"Then are you really planning to choose the crown prince among the four princes? The prince's legs are not good, and the second prince has a good chance of winning."

Jun Yuyan shook his head and said to her patiently: "The father only has himself in his heart. He is not sure whether the queen is behind it, so he throws out the third and fourth children as bait because he wants to seize the real handle. So as not to encounter such harm next time.”

Murong Jiu was suddenly shocked when he heard this.

She understood correctly. Jun Yuyan meant that the emperor did not really want to settle on the prince.

He gave the third and fourth princes a chance to compete for the throne, firstly to divert the target and prevent him from being assassinated again, and secondly to let the person who harmed him behind the scenes reveal his flaws by targeting the third and fourth princes.

"If my father wanted to appoint a prince, he would have done so long ago. Throughout the ages, the earlier the prince is appointed, the sooner the emperor will die."

These words were too rebellious. Murong Jiu's eyes widened and he quickly covered his mouth: "Your Highness, be careful that walls have ears!"

She didn't know that Jun Yuyan was also a very disrespectful person to the emperor.

Jun Yuyan let out a low laugh, with a bit of joy in his eyes.

The heat spread on her palm, and her heart seemed to be scratched. She quickly retracted her hand and said, "I offended the prince just now in a hurry."

"I know Ah Jiu is doing it for my own good, but I am surrounded by my people. What we say will not be heard by outsiders."

Murong Jiu's face was so hot that she quickly changed the subject: "Didn't my father want the prince to be the prince?"

Jun Yuyan's eyes flashed with sarcasm, he looked at his injured leg and said:

"Ajiu, there are no real fathers and sons in the Tian family, only monarchs and ministers. Back then, I was highly accomplished and famous, but my father was in his prime. How can one mountain accommodate two tigers?"

Murong Jiu couldn't believe that Jun Yuyan's injury and disfigurement were not caused by the second prince alone, but the emperor was actually behind it!

The father and son of the Tian family are so heartless?
