Chapter 402
Gongsun Yu laughed, "I'm afraid that on the day I return in triumph, what awaits my minister will be a grand feast."

Gongsun Lie's face froze slightly, "Yu'er, you don't believe me so much? Don't forget. You are my son."

"The queen mother is your wife, so what's wrong with her?" Gongsun Yu asked back.

Gongsun Lie gritted his teeth, "Although your mother is my wife, she is a member of the Ye family of the four great families, and the four great families have always been ambitious. Although your mother married me, she always thinks about her Ye family. You can dote on your mother and give your mother the most lofty status, but I will never let the century-old foundation of the Qin Kingdom change my surname, and I will not tolerate my country being missed by the Ye family."

"The child minister was born to the empress mother and the emperor father, and the blood of the Ye family also circulates in his body," Gongsun Yu said.

Gongsun Lie shook his head, "Royal father believes in you, you are different from your mother's queen. After all, you are my son, and your mother's queen is finally just an outsider"

"It turns out that in Father's heart, Queen Mother is just an outsider." Gongsun Yu nodded.

Gongsun Lie didn't hear the other meanings in Gongsun Yu's words, but nodded regretfully, "Yu'er, set off as soon as possible, I'll wait for your triumphant return."

After Gongsun Lie finished speaking, he turned around and walked out the door.However, at the door, Qian Hong still stood there, neither dodging nor letting go. He blocked the door by himself, as if one man was the one who was the gatekeeper and the other man was not allowed to open it.

"Go away," Gongsun Lie shouted.Qian Hong didn't move.Gongsun Lie gritted his teeth and looked at Gongsun Yu, "Yu'er, what do you mean? Don't believe what I said? Or do I need to write down the imperial decree to re-canonize you as the prince?" Gongsun Lie sneered in his heart, but he was just a prince. It made Gongsun Yu forget Ye Rong's death.

"I am not interested in the position of crown prince. It doesn't matter whether my father writes it or not. Does my father think that if you use the trick to abolish the crown prince, my son will lose his status as prince?" Gongsun Yu sneered. with.

"What do you mean?" Gongsun Lie was shocked.

Gongsun Yu had a smile on his face, "My son means that the father is old, the mother died, the father was hit hard, and he didn't care about political affairs, the prince Gongsun Yu has outstanding literary talent, literary and martial arts, and broad-mindedness, he is the best candidate for the throne."

Gongsun Lie's complexion changed suddenly, he pointed at Gongsun Yu with his right hand, and said in surprise, "You, you want to usurp the throne?"

Gongsun Yu tilted his head and looked at Gongsun Yu, with a smile that was not a smile, "Have you ever said that you want to usurp the throne? Didn't the father understand the meaning of the son? The father will pass down the son to the son. The son is not usurping the throne, but The legitimate heir to the throne"

"You, you, I will never issue such an edict, Gongsun Yu, you are so ambitious that you actually want to seek power and usurp the throne." Gongsun Lie scolded angrily, "Even if you force me to write an edict to pass on the throne, hundreds of officials in the court will not accept it." Will recognize you, the emperor who seeks to usurp the throne"

Gongsun Yu shook his head with a smile, "Royal Father, you really think too highly of yourself." While speaking, Gongsun Yu patted his hands lightly, and the windows on all sides of Fengqi Palace were opened, and the lanterns were lit up one after another.Only then did Gongsun Lie discover in astonishment that the minister on the left and the minister on the right, that one was his Minister of War, that one was his Minister of Rites, that one was his Minister of Officials, that one was Marquis An Wu, that one, that one, that one
The people standing outside these windows are all the officials in the court, how could they appear here?Gongsun Lie was puzzled, and before he could guess anything, he saw the dense crowd of officials suddenly knelt down, and said in unison, "Please pass on the imperial edict, Your Highness is brave and wise, and can be called the emperor of heaven."

Gongsun Lie felt his mind go blank for a moment. He looked at the courtiers outside in disbelief. Normally, each of them would criticize Gongsun Yu a lot in the court hall, but now, he was united in asking him to pass down the imperial edict. .

"You, you trash," Gongsun Lie said angrily, his fingers trembling.The ministers who usually looked up to him one by one and bowed their heads to him, unexpectedly united and let him pass on to Gongsun Yu.

"Gongsun Yu, you are really good at scheming and scheming, since you can persuade them." Gongsun Lie glared at Gongsun Yu, "Aren't you afraid of being struck by thunder and retribution? I am the son of the real dragon, and I am blessed by heaven, not you trash , idiot, comparable"

"After the father killed his mother with poison, the husband and wife have been married for more than ten years, and they are not afraid of lightning strikes. What are the sons afraid of?" Gongsun Yu said with a smile, "Besides, the sons don't know how to kill their fathers. The queen mother has loved the emperor father all her life, and the ministers are afraid that the queen mother will be lonely, so I trouble the emperor to go to the imperial mausoleum to accompany the queen mother in the future."

"You, you, you bastard, you bastard" Gongsun Lie scolded angrily, while shouting outside, "Come on, take down this bastard for me, come on, come on!"

"Father, you don't need to shout, even if you shout your throat is useless, your people won't come"

Gongsun Lie pursed his lips and stared at Gongsun Yu fiercely, "What do you mean?"

Gongsun Yu said kindly, "Father's people have been controlled by General Qian Sheng. Those who don't want to die, they take refuge, and those who don't want to live, don't live."

"Isn't Qian Sheng guarding the border?" A flash of light suddenly flashed in Gongsun Lie's mind. He looked at Gongsun Yu in horror. This, this, Gongsun Yu returned to the imperial capital with a high profile. Chang led people to wander around the imperial capital, but didn't go to see him. This was obviously done on purpose by him, the purpose was just to attract his attention and let him send more people to monitor him.Gongsun Yu knew that Qian Hong would definitely be by his side, so even Qian Hong was under surveillance.

But he never expected that Qian Hong's father, Qian Sheng, would betray him.

"Why did Qian Sheng agree to cooperate with you internally and externally?" Gongsun Lie said slowly, and in just a moment, all his anger was smoothed out, and he seemed to be old.

"My son promises that he will never kill anyone in the General's Mansion as long as he lives," Gongsun Yu said slowly.

"These trash, how did you make them obey?" Gongsun Yu asked.Back then, when he ascended the throne, many ministers objected. He was afraid that if he killed the ministers as soon as he ascended the throne, he would attract speculation and leave a reputation for brutality, so he endured it all the time, especially some of the elders, relying on I was the favorite minister of the first emperor, so I had a lot of resistance to him.But just now he saw that those immortals were also kneeling inside.

"I have the accounts of each of them in my hand. I know how much they have embezzled, formed parties with those people, how many concubines they have raised, how many fields they have, and how many antiques they have in their homes. I know everything about it." Gongsun Yu said lightly.

"As expected of my son, compared to what I used back then, it's even worse." Gongsun Lie suddenly laughed.

"Father is absurd. My son is not as good as father." Gongsun Yu was very humble.
