Chapter 168 The Book of Inheritance

Chapter 168 The Book of Inheritance (Second Update)
After seeing the person's face clearly, Jing Se was surprised, and looked at Fan Chen, "How could it be her?"

The person in front of Taihe Emperor Dragon's couch was none other than Su Xun, the second concubine who had just lost her husband not long ago. Two feet in front of Su Xun, there was a small group of the emperor's eldest grandson, Gu Zizhan, who was only one and a half years old and had just learned to walk. Kneeling on the ground, his eyes were facing the direction of Emperor Taihe's sickbed.

Today was a palace banquet, so it's fine if the second prince and concubine didn't attend, but was summoned by Emperor Taihe and the emperor's eldest grandson to Qianqing Palace, even Sun Dabao, the eunuch close to Emperor Taihe, was sent out to not listen in.

What is the reason?

Jing se thinks this scene is weird no matter how you look at it.

Her eyes narrowed.

Fan Chen approached Jing Se and whispered in her ear: "Don't talk, let's see what they are going to do next."

The warmth from his lips spread to her earlobe, Jing Se shuddered all over, and almost went limp.

Fan Chen noticed her strangeness, and immediately stretched out his arms to hug her.

Jing se twisted her body uncomfortably.

"Don't move." Fan Chen whispered: "I haven't touched you for four months. If I accidentally shoot a gun, I won't care that this is the emperor's bedroom."

Jing Se's heart trembled, and she was too frightened to move.

Seeing that she was frightened by him, Fan Chen secretly smiled, and said, "You are really easy to coax."

Jing Se was annoyed and stared at him, but didn't dare to make a sound.

After a while, she withdrew her gaze and continued to look into the inner hall.

Emperor Taihe was very ill and kept coughing non-stop.

From Jing Se's point of view, he could see that he stretched out his withered and old hand, as if he wanted to call the emperor's eldest grandson, his voice was weak.

"Zi...Zizhan."

"Grandpa Emperor." Gu Zizhan didn't know how to speak yet, and he held back the cry for a long time, his voice was extremely tender and sweet.

Emperor Taihe smiled gratifiedly, "My dear grandson, come here."

Su Xun hurriedly bent over to help Gu Zizhan up and approached Emperor Taihe's dragon couch.

At this moment, Jing Se realized that Su Xun's eyes were already swollen from crying.

Could it be that Su Xun was crying that Taihedi was seriously ill?
Shouldn't there be such a possibility?

Frowning, Jing Se looked at Fan Chen again, and found that his eyes were darker, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Jing se put her mind back and continued to read.

Taihe Diqiang propped himself up and sat up. Just as his palm touched Gu Zizhan's head, he immediately coughed violently, and couldn't help coughing up a mouthful of blood.

"Father!" Su Xun looked at this scene with a pale face, and his whole body became terrified.

None of the emotional changes on Su Xun's face escaped Jing Se's eyes.

Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Jing Se continued to watch.

Emperor Taihe raised his hand, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with a bright yellow handkerchief, and rinsed his mouth with the water that Su Xun handed over, then looked at Gu Zizhan again with a satisfied expression on his face, "Zizhan, When you grow up, you must not be like your uncles and uncles, intrigues, intrigues, fighting to the death, and ultimately no good outcome."

Gu Zizhan was only one and a half years old, how could he understand this, he just blinked blankly, and when he saw Emperor Taihe vomiting blood again, he was frightened and cried.

Su Xun hurriedly stepped forward to hug him, and comforted him, "Don't be afraid, Zizhan, your grandpa is just sick."

On the roof, after hearing this, Jing Se asked in a low voice, "When did Emperor Taihe become so ill? When I saw him before, he was fine, just a little depressed."

Fanchen pursed his lips, "Probably...God doesn't like him, so he wants to accept him in advance."

Jing Se curled her lips, "Is it because you don't like him?"

Fan Shen was silent but smiled.

Jing Se secretly rolled her eyes, thinking that this man is really perfect. In such a short period of time, not only did she have to marry him, but the old emperor was also calculated.

"Grandpa Emperor..." Gu Zizhan still only yelled this sentence, his yelling was indistinct because of the crying.

Su Xun hugged Gu Zizhan tightly, and also wept silently.

For some reason, Jing Se always felt that Su Xun was not crying about the old emperor's illness, but rather worried about something beside him, but the vision in the gap between the two glazed tiles was too limited, and Jing Se couldn't see the inner hall. Even in all the scenes, I can't guess the symbolic meaning of this scene.

She hated this feeling of being scratched by the unknown truth, and felt a little annoyed.

Just about to sit up straight and let Fan Chen watch alone.

At this time, she found that Emperor Taihe took out a sealed scroll from under the jade pillow and handed it to Su Xun.

Su Xun stood up and raised his hands respectfully to pick it up.

Jing Se's expression changed abruptly, "This is... the Biography of the Emperor?!"

Seeing this, there was no need to continue, Jing Se slowly sat up straight, her mood was still fluctuating.

The old emperor actually handed over the letter of succession to Su Xun. What exactly does he want to do?Go beyond the prince's generation and directly establish the emperor's eldest grandson?

But looking at the way Su Xun was crying while accepting the order, it didn't seem quite like it.

If Emperor Taihe wants to pass the throne to Gu Zizhan, shouldn't Su Xun be happy?What is she crying for?
Fan Chen didn't look at it anymore, pulled the cloak on her shoulders, sat upright and said: "Emperor Taihe had a premonition that his life was not long, so he secretly made a letter of succession in advance, but this succession is more interesting. Give the imperial edict to the second concubine for safekeeping, and even his close eunuchs will not let him know that there is an imperial edict."

"Do you know what is written in the Chuanwei Zhaoshu?" Jing Se asked.

"I don't know for now." Fan Chen shook his head.

"Then you... is there any way to know?" Jing Se asked again.

Fan Chen smiled and said, "When the old emperor dies, won't he know everything?"

Jing Se squinted at him, "Then don't marry me, I'll stay in Xiqin, and when the old emperor dies, see with his own eyes what kind of a distinctive letter of succession he will leave behind."

"No." Fan Chen pulled her into his arms, bit her little earlobe lightly, and said vaguely with his lips and teeth: "Who the old emperor wants to be the crown prince and how to do it is up to him." I have nothing to do, my mission is to marry a wife and have children."

"Don't make trouble." Jing Se couldn't stand him like this the most, her body trembled slightly, and she stretched out her hand to push him, "I'm still tired now!"

Glancing around, he said: "Let's go back, we've been out for too long, and we'll really attract criticism later."

"Wait a little longer." Fan Chen said, "The real fun has just begun."

Jing Se was stunned, before he could speak, he heard the sound of arresting assassins not far away.

Not long after, a group of Habayashi guards holding torches surrounded the Qianqing Palace.

Sun Dabao, who was standing outside the main hall, saw clearly that those were all people from the Eastern Palace, and immediately raised his eyebrows, furious, "What are you doing?"

The leading guard of the Habayashi arched his hands and said: "Eunuch Sun, just now the humble officials saw the assassin in the imperial garden and came directly in this direction. The humble official was worried that the assassin was coming for the emperor, so he specially chased him. "

Sun Dabao said coldly: "Our family has been guarding here, and we haven't seen any assassins."

The leader said: "The Qianqing Palace is so big, and Eunuch Sun is guarding outside the hall, what if the assassin jumped in through the window?"

Sun Dabao narrowed his eyes, "You are from the Eastern Palace, why did you appear in the Qianqing Palace?"

The leader showed no fear, and said directly: "Tonight at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, His Royal Highness specially dispatched the Habayashi guards from the Eastern Palace to the Imperial Garden in order to consolidate the guards. Since the lowly officials have discovered that there are assassins, they cannot ignore them."

Sun Dabao frowned again and again, "How can you be sure that the assassin came to Qianqing Palace?"

The leader said: "Have you been here before? Eunuch Sun clears the way, and the lowly officials will find out when they go in and search."

"Bold—" Eunuch Sun's voice became sharper, "Qianqing Palace is the emperor's palace, so you people from the East Palace can go in and search it if you want?"

The leader was stunned by his voice, stayed for a while, and said: "Since Eunuch Sun doesn't let the humble officials go in and search, then the humble officials can only lead a group of Habayashi guards to guard the emperor outside, so as not to cause another accident."

Sun Dabao's face changed again and again, this group of people was obviously sent by the crown prince Gu Gan to monitor the emperor's activities.

The prince was afraid that he had heard rumors that the emperor would summon the second concubine tonight, so he had no choice but to make such a plan to let the guards of the East Palace come to the palace to imprison the emperor in disguise.

Thinking of this, Sun Dabao squeezed the fly whisk in his hand.

The second concubine and the eldest grandson of the emperor are still inside, and now the outside is surrounded by the guards of the Eastern Palace, how will she get out in a while?

Jing Se was also thinking about this question, thinking in his heart that Gu Qian could find out that something was wrong with Emperor Taihe in such a short period of time, and he was not considered stupid. Now that he has let his own people guard outside the Qianqing Palace, what will the second prince and concubine do for a while? come out?
"Already gone." Fan Chen's faint voice came from beside his ear.

"What?" Jing Se was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look again, there were no figures of Su Xun and the emperor's grandson in the inner hall, only Emperor Taihe on the sickbed and the continuous coughing sound.

"Could it be that there is a secret way?" Jing Se narrowed her eyes.

"It's the secret path." Fan Chen nodded, "After the second concubine received the letter of succession, she walked through the secret path."

Jing Se was startled, "I never found out that there is a secret passage in Qianqing Palace."

Fan Chen smiled, "Actually, every imperial palace has secret passages, which are used just in case. In case of rebellion or palace changes, the secret passages can facilitate the emperor's quick escape."

Jing Se nodded, "That's true."

Turning to look at Habayashi guard outside the Qianqing Palace, he sighed: "Gu Gan is still not smart enough, he doesn't know that there is a secret way in the Qianqing Palace, he dares to let his own people surround the Qianqing Palace, even under the cover of protection. In the name of the emperor, but the old emperor will definitely be more disappointed in him through this matter."

Fan Chen said: "The old emperor had been deeply wary of Gu Qian when the Yanshan Palace was changed. He just created an opportunity for Gu Gan to make him feel even more chilled tonight, so as not to be too cruel to abolish the crown prince in the future. .”

Jing Se suddenly realized, "So, the fact that Emperor Taihe will summon the second concubine tonight is something that Emperor Taihe himself deliberately passed to Gu Gan's ears, in order to test Gu Gan's actions?"

Fan Shen nodded, "You can say that."

"What a cunning old fox!" Jing Se praised sincerely: "If you are about to die, you still plan this and that."

Fan Chen smiled slightly, "It is precisely because I know that the Emperor of Western Qin is always scheming, so I simply abandoned my status as the son of King Chu, changed my status again, and found a reason that Emperor Taihe had to obey to justify marrying you."

Jing Se chuckled, "Black hearted!" and asked again: "You said that I have been paying respects to the old emperor every day as a princess, and then I will find an opportunity to get mad at him every day, and finally get mad at him to death, how about it?"

Fan Shen smiled, "Very good."
