Chapter 409 Palace Change! (2)
The queen mother was also a little terrified, but she forced herself to be calm, "Son, mother is forced to do so. Don't be afraid. This is not poison. How could mother use poison to hurt you? This medicine will only make you look terminally ill. After seven days, the medicine will be cured." Go down, and you'll be back to normal."

After Liu Chen was in pain from the initial episode, he didn't know if the pain had subsided or he was still numb. He lay down in the chair, unable to lift his body up a bit, as if all the strength in his body had been drained, and the breath of grief spread to the His whole body, even if he learned that it was not a fatal poison, his grief did not ease a bit.

The Empress Dowager stepped forward and took a handkerchief to wipe his sweat, but he turned his head away and refused her.

She sighed, "How long can you sit in this position, you will leave it to them sooner or later, why not give it to him now, you can be a leisurely emperor, take good care of your body, and you can live for decades, you will send the abdication edict Let's write it."

Liu Chen looked straight at his mother, "I don't know how to write."

The queen mother didn't seem to be surprised by his non-cooperation, "If you don't write, you won't be able to stop the prince from succeeding to the throne."

Liu Chen said, "You treat your son like this, don't you feel any reluctance and guilt in your heart? When you get to the bottom, aren't you afraid that your father will blame you?"

The queen mother looked away, "Mother, this is for your own good, for the good of the Liu family. Didn't you say that foreign enemies are eyeing you? You and your uncle are fighting non-stop. Isn't that good for them? But it's different when the crown prince succeeds." , the Deng family will help him wholeheartedly, he is the prince's grandfather, besides, whether you sit or the prince sits, isn't it all surnamed Liu? Why does your father blame me?"

Liu Chen sneered, "Even if I'm dead, let alone other things, he won't be able to sit in that position because the crown prince murdered the general."

The queen mother said, "If the palace is attacked by assassins, he will lead the army to defeat the assassins and save the palace and you, the emperor. These will be enough to wash away all his guilt. At that time, you will be diagnosed by the imperial doctor as ill and unable to govern. , the position can only be his.”

Liu Chen said coldly, "My uncle planned all this, right?"

The queen mother said nothing.

Liu Chen snorted, "Mother, don't forget, the prince is still locked up by me, and I still guessed that my uncle should be leading the army into the palace right now? I have been on guard against him for a long time. Let’s mobilize the Imperial Forest Army to take strict precautions and prohibit all people from entering or leaving.” What he didn’t expect was that his mother would attack him.

The queen mother's expression froze for a while, and she sat back on the chair, "Then let's see who wins and who loses, mother and son."

After a while, Sun Ping rushed over nervously, "Your Majesty..."

Before Sun Ping could speak, Liu Chen ordered, "No matter what, the rebels can't invade the palace."

"Yes." Sun Ping took the order, the matter was urgent, he didn't notice the emperor's abnormal condition, so he left in a hurry.

The defense of the palace has always been dispatched by Sun Ping. Liu Chen believes in his ability and knows that it is not easy to break into the palace.

Sure enough, as he expected, more than an hour passed, and the rebels did not attack.

The queen mother couldn't sit still anymore, she walked to the door and looked back and forth, with an anxious expression on her face, she probably knew that if this failed, it would not only break the relationship between their mother and son, but also his brother, Deng Xiang's family, would be ransacked all over the house in the name of rebellion cut.

After waiting anxiously for another half an hour, the Queen Mother suddenly turned around and walked towards Liu Chen.

Liu Chen said, "Mother doesn't need to bother, it's useless."

But who knew that she ran to the back and took out the Tianzi sword, Liu Chen's face changed drastically, "Mother, don't be obsessed with it anymore, you will regret it, you are leading a wolf into the house."

The Empress Dowager ignored him, found her confidant, and handed the sword to him, "Seeing the sword is like seeing the emperor. Those who come here are to destroy the assassins, and they are not allowed to resist."

"No, it can't be like this..." Liu Chen struggled to stand up, exerting all his strength, but he just lifted his body away and fell back again.

It didn't take long for the person holding the Tianzi Sword to go out, the noise came from far and near, Liu Chen raised his head and sighed helplessly.

"Your majesty, why are you doing this? Okay, why don't you resist? Those are rebels, what are you trying to do..." Sun Ping, covered in blood, rushed in angrily, looking at the emperor for a moment Then, I suddenly realized that something was wrong with the emperor.

The emperor gave him a wink, and with the empress dowager sitting next to him, he instantly understood that it was not what the emperor wanted to do, but what the empress dowager wanted to do, and the empress dowager was really confused.

The rebel army has already invaded, and the emperor's safety is in danger. Sun Ping is going to flee with the emperor's back. Tolerate the behavior of these people.

"No need." Liu Chen waved his hand, "The outside must be full of people. I am in this state, and you can't escape with me. You may have a glimmer of hope by yourself. After you escape, see Princess Anping, tell her..."

Sun Ping shook his head desperately, "If I don't leave, how can I leave you behind? If Princess Anping knows, she will kill me with a knife."

Liu Chen sighed, "If you think about it, don't tell her. After you escape, just take care of her for me."

Sun Ping shook his head, "No, I won't leave no matter what you say, I don't have the face to meet her if you make a mistake, yes, Princess Anping is so sensitive, she will definitely guess that there is a change in the palace, she once reminded I, maybe she will come back soon..."

The queen mother next to her snorted, "Anping, Anping, you are still thinking about her at this moment. What do you think is going on in your head? A girl who has no relatives and no reason is worthy of you? I think you are really obsessed. I don’t even know how close we are.”

Liu Chen didn't say a word.

However, the corner of Sun Ping's mouth twitched, and he said in his heart, it should be you who can't tell the relatives.

The queen mother said, "Even if she is here, she can't turn things around. She's just a girl who has some medical skills."

While speaking, the gate of the palace was suddenly pushed open. Deng Xiang, Deng Shangyun, and the prince led a group of people in. It was already impossible for the emperor to want Sun Ping to escape.

The moment Prince Liu Li saw his father, his eyes panicked and he didn't dare to look directly at him, revealing his extreme guilt.

On the contrary, Liu Chen remained calm and undiminished.

Liu Chen glanced at the people in the hall, "Everyone should be here. Speaking of which, the emperor is doing pretty badly. My mother, my uncle, my son, and my ministers, unite, Do everything possible to pull Zhen down, do you really think that if you win Zhen, you can sit in my position? Prince, you can convince the world by sitting in this way? Can you convince your brother Liu Jing? "

The prince gritted his teeth, "This position was originally mine, but it's just one day sooner or later. I have been the prince for more than [-] years. From childhood to adulthood, everyone around me has told me so. My every word and deed , and what you have learned, are all for the purpose of being an emperor."

Liu Chen snorted, "You were brought up as a prince, but you are not that kind of material in your bones. You only learned how to be a prince, but you didn't learn how to be a prince."

The prince's face was grim, "You don't like my mother, and you don't even like me. Naturally, everything I do in your eyes is useless and wrong. I am the prince, but you have favored Liu since you were young." King, raise him up to fight against me, check and balance me, in your eyes, have you ever had me as a son?"

"Even if I didn't make a mistake, you couldn't pass the seat to me. You were the one who didn't want me as a son. You forced my mother to death. You locked me in a dark room. I'm just Let you enjoy your old age in peace earlier."

There was silence in the hall.

"As for Liu Jing." The prince sneered, "It's impossible for him not to know about such a big event in the palace, and it's impossible for him to stand idly by. When the time comes, there will be chaos in the palace, and it's not uncommon for someone to be killed by mistake. "

Before Liu Chen said anything, the queen mother stood up, "This is not good, he is your brother, you can't hurt him."

The prince said, "As long as he cooperates well, I will naturally not hurt him. As long as the emperor writes the abdication edict, I will naturally protect him from harm."

The prince took a pen and inkstone and walked towards the emperor, intending to force the emperor to write an imperial edict, but halfway there, he heard a stabbing sound, and the man stopped suddenly, and a sword emerged from his abdomen.

The Queen Mother sat down on the chair with an ah.

The prince looked back slowly, and found that the one holding the hilt was actually Deng Shangyun. His eyes were startled and he couldn't imagine, "You, you..."
