Chapter 300
At the beginning, she did not doubt Emperor Chengzhen.
He did vomit blood, and he was indeed sick. This is well known. The emperor was sick, but the country could not be without a king for a day, so His Royal Highness appeared. However, this seemingly normal thing is far less calm than it seems on the surface.
Ye Kui is not good at scrutinizing people's hearts, so she did not have any doubts about this matter at the beginning.
It was not until things began to derail and slipped into the abyss that was getting worse and worse that she picked up the things again and carefully dealt with them. It didn't matter if she ignored them, but it was a problem that she had solved.
Emperor Chengzhen fell ill and the prince took over the government.
But how many sons does Emperor Chengzhen have?
How many strong and old sons did he have? How many of these people are more prestigious and talented than the Prince's Palace? Among them, the fifth prince is the most important. He is a prince who seems to be far more suitable to be an emperor than the Prince.
It is precisely because of this that when everyone suddenly saw the prince start to deal with the government and do what Emperor Chengzhen should have done in the past?
At least, it cannot be happy.
The fifth prince must be very unhappy.
It is absolutely impossible to say that she is not jealous. Ye Kui just imagine that if she was the fifth prince and put herself in her shoes, she would not have been on the throne of the crown prince. Reason? Why would anyone who is inferior to her in anything can one day climb up to her head? This is a shame, a very fatal shame! Most talented people are arrogant, and the fifth prince must have never suffered any setbacks since childhood because of his mother's respect.
How could such a person look like a person who can tolerate his anger?
Therefore, the prince was unable to feel the feeling of being an emperor for a few days, so he was pulled down by the fifth prince. The reason was that it was helpless. But in fact, the prince was abolished and immediately rolled down from the clouds.
The fifth prince, on the contrary, had a momentum as he was at the peak of his life, and he even felt like the position of the prince was already in his pocket.
Ye Kui didn't vaguely notice all this until a long time later.
Everything seemed to be done under the instruction of Emperor Chengzhen.
He was clearly lying on the sickbed, but Ye Kui could not suppress the idea in his mind. A dragon robe full of "bloody" would throw people who had been crowned princes for decades into hell. But in fact, as long as Emperor Chengzhen was willing to believe in the crown prince, everything would be no problem. Even as long as he was willing to investigate, or he could simply find a scapegoat to end the matter.
But, nothing.
The prince was gone.
Ye Kui couldn't help but feel that Emperor Chengzhen was not willing to the crown prince to inherit his throne.
Even if he did not instruct, he must have acquiesced to this matter. He acquiesced the fifth prince to frame the prince, to fall, to the turmoil of the government and the throne of the country, to the turmoil of the throne.
It is said that a woman's heart is a needle under the sea. But according to Ye Kui's opinion, the emperor's heart is far more difficult to retrieve than a needle under the sea. No matter what he does, it is impossible to find out the reason. It seems that those things are imminent, but you will never know the truth until the final decision is made.
This feeling is not at all good.
Ye Kui clenched her fists secretly, she was about to turn the tables!
She wants to turn the tables! She is bound to turn the tables!
She doesn't want to be a chess piece on the chess board, nor does she want her unborn children to be a chess piece in the hands of those people. She wants to be the hand that plays chess!
The moment she turned over, everything would change. Her appearance had already changed many things. What could it be like? Even if it was replaced by an emperor, the world would not continue? Since we can't know what Emperor Chengzhen was thinking, can't they take the throne directly into their hands?
No matter when, whoever has a hard fist will still be the boss!
This has been unquestionable from ancient times to the present.
Maybe she should take some time to ask for a visit to Concubine Pei. Although the Thirteenth Prince was still young, he was not that young. Judging from the history she knew, Kangxi ascended the throne at the age of eight and had already taken power at the age of fourteen. So what if he was young? He would always grow up.
After thinking about it, I finally found one of the breakthroughs.
But if she said these words rashly at this time, there would be no good ending. Not everyone can afford the word treason.
Similarly, if it weren't for the fact that Concubine Pei had a thirteenth prince under her knees and the Pei family had military power, she would never have thought of that direction. Now Emperor Chengzhen's mind is so deep that it is impossible to guess at all, so she could only think about it like this first and make more plans for what might happen in the future.
Did Emperor Chengzhen like the fifth prince?
This may be the key to the matter.
But if Emperor Chengzhen had no intention of letting the fifth prince inherit the throne, the prince would have been dismissed now. Then who would be the heir in his heart? The weak and sick third prince, the impulsive and reckless sixth prince, the seventh prince with almost no sense of existence, the smart and tolerant eighth prince, and the ninth prince who was only fifteen years old this year... Apart from these few, the remaining princes should have even less chance.
The rest of the people are still too young.
So could the person Emperor Chengzhen likes is the Eighth Prince?
Ye Kui thought about it carefully and frowned.
After thinking for a while, she tried to throw these thoughts out of her mind. Now, the most important thing is not which prince Emperor Chengzhen wants, but what is going on in Cangcheng. What is the situation outside Yuguan? Are Pei Changge and Ye Chongwu safe?
Ye Kui sighed, knowing in her heart that she was trying hard to analyze the situation of Emperor Chengzhen, but in fact it was just to escape from Cangcheng.
She was a little afraid to think about it.
In addition, it seemed that the destruction of the Southern Kingdom was mixed with, and the matter was so complicated that she was unable to return.
Shen Liu's death has ignited the war.
She knew this well, and therefore she became more and more aware that Bai Yong'an Hou would find it difficult to come back today. Shen Liu was his old subordinate. If Shen Liu colluded with the enemy and treason, it would be difficult for him to protect the Yong'an Hou, who was his former general, from the past, from knowing that, and he was even a participant.
If she could think so, everyone would naturally think of Yong'an Hou like this.
Those who are clear will be clear, and all of them are just nonsense!
As long as you are in the eyes of others, no matter how clear you feel, you can only be in a mess. It is like a lie, and if you say too much, it will become true. Why? Isn’t this the reason for three people to become tigers?
The Marquis of Yong'an has been implicated, and it is difficult for the Pei family to distinguish them.
But Ye Kui believed in his father-in-law's ability. If he did this, he would be defeated. It would not be Pei Fei, Yong'an Hou! He would have no trouble, but he had to spend time to settle the matter. For a moment, Yong'an Hou could no longer be distracted to deal with the matter of caring about Cangcheng.
Ye Kui is very worried about this.
When she returned to Jingqueyuan worriedly, the deercao that had come back early had already cooked the noodles and brought it to her as time. She had no appetite, but after being hungry for most of the day, she inexplicably felt appetite when she saw the bowl of clear soup and drank the whole bowl of noodles absent-mindedly. Qin Sang and deercao couldn't help but smile. Only Chi Po looked unhappy and taught her a lesson to eat only such noodles, completely ignoring that she was a twin.
Chi Po stewed chicken soup and brought it in, but Ye Kui couldn't touch a drop.
As soon as I smelled the smell, my stomach felt surging and I felt so uncomfortable. Chi Po couldn't do it, so I had to take down the cup of chicken soup again.
Since Ye Kui got pregnant, Chi Po has only been cooking for her. She doesn't show up often on weekdays and has become a kitchen cook.
"Mother-in-law, I want to tell you something." Ye Kui looked at her figure who was about to leave and suddenly called her.
Chi Po turned around in confusion and handed the chicken soup in his hand to the little maid waiting outside, saying that she would give it to them, and she followed Ye Kui into the inner room. As soon as the door was closed, Yancao and Qin Sang were guarding outside, and only Chi Po and Ye Kui were left in the room.
"If you have any worries, you want to tell me?" Chi Po half closed her eyes with her dark eyes, but her other intact eyes stared at Ye Kui with bright eyes.
Ye Kui forced a smile and asked Chi Po to sit next to her, playing with her fingers in embarrassment, and said with a little embarrassed look: "It was not supposed to be asked, but now the situation is urgent, so I have to ask. Which one did you serve in the palace?"
Chi Po raised her head slightly and frowned, "Why did you suddenly ask about this?"
"Well, I can't think of some things myself, but I can't think of anything. It's better to say it out loud and you can help me think about it." Ye Kui bit her lip and said softly.
Chi Po heard what she said, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then her eyes softened, and she said, "Tell me, what happened."
Ye Kui took a deep breath and told Chi Po all the things he had guessed and clearly affirmed.
"You mean, do you suspect that the emperor is pretending to be sick?" Chi Po grabbed the key point in her words and asked with a narrow look.
Ye Kui nodded, shook her head and said, "Maybe it's not pretending to be sick, but we don't know how the disease came about." Anyway, she was indeed suspicious of Emperor Chengzhen. His illness came about strangely.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince was born by the Queen." Chi Po suddenly murmured.
Ye Kui knew this, but she also heard that the Empress and Emperor Chengzhen had a very good relationship. However, suddenly, a white light flashed in her mind. Ye Kui thought of the Marquis of Yong'an and Mrs. Yong'an. Isn't her father-in-law also having a very good relationship among the rumors of the world? But what is the truth? So, the relationship between the Empress and Emperor Chengzhen was not actually good either?
Chi Po's eyes were unknown where she looked. She lowered her head slightly, smiled bitterly, and said, "Yes, the emperor is afraid that he has always disliked His Highness the Crown Prince."
