Lucky Star Little Maid - C213

Not mentioning the different thoughts of the people sitting below, when the Emperor Ruikang saw his son slowly walk to his side, he felt a burst of regret.

His son was in his prime, but he was old.

However, when he thought about how his son was also his bloodline, and his two outstanding grandsons, in the future, he could continue to pass on his bloodline, the Emperor Ruikang finally felt a little better.

Just as Emperor Ruikang called Ye Jingxing to his side, Empress Hu also immediately called Xu Nuanwen and Dong Shu to his side.

Originally, Empress Hu was only prepared to call Dong Shu to her side, but since Emperor Ruikang had called Ye Jingxing to her side, she could not only call Dong Shu to her side, and could only call Xu Nuanwen to her side.

When the Empress Hu also spoke out, the expressions of the people below, who were seated, became more normal.

Xu Nuanwen also did not expect that Empress Hu would call her over today. When she was walking towards the top, she saw from the corner of her eyes that her mother-in-law’s face was not happy at all.

When Xu Nuanwen and Dong Shu were seated properly beside Empress Hu, the annual feast officially began.

Other than celebrating the New Year, everyone knew that there were two other important matters that were about to happen during today’s feast.

As everyone raised their wine cups, everyone was wondering how long it would take for Emperor Ruikang to speak.

Emperor Ruikang sat on the seat of honor, looking at the expressions of the people below him, he knew that they were not thinking about it, but he was feeling extremely good right now.

This feeling of being looked forward to by everyone was really too good.

After drinking a few cups of wine, Emperor Ruikang was satisfied with everyone’s reaction. He then nodded towards the first seat on the left of the leader, Prince Duan.

Prince Duan also understood that his royal brother wasn’t feeling good today, so no matter how anxious the others were, or how many people looked at him, he didn’t give a single response.

When he received the Emperor Ruikang’s hint, the Prince Duan then raised the wine cup in front of him and said to the Emperor Ruikang in front of him: “Chendi, Brother He.”

When the Prince Duan opened his mouth to speak, the originally noisy great hall instantly quietened down.

The Prince Duan did not seem to have noticed all of this. After he finished speaking, he saw the Emperor Ruikang looking at him and continued, “Brother He Huang has such an outstanding son. There will be hope for the future!”

When Prince Duan finished speaking, the officials and their servants from the Fifth Prince’s Ye Jingxing Lineage all revealed a smile on their faces.

Everyone knew that the relationship between the Prince Duan and His Majesty was close, and that things like ‘there’s hope for the mountains and rivers’ were not casually said.

Since the Prince Duan was able to say such words, it proved that the successor to the Emperor Ruikang’s heart was indeed the Fifth Prince Ye Jingxing!

No matter what others were thinking, Ye Jingxing, who had long guessed what the Royal Father was thinking, revealed a rare hint of ‘shyness’. When the Emperor Ruikang saw the expression on Ye Jingxing’s face, he nodded in satisfaction and then replied: “You’re right.

This kind of ‘untimely’ words, could only be said by the Emperor Ruikang himself.

But at this moment, the most important thing was the meaning expressed by Emperor Ruikang just now. He did indeed intend to hand over the throne to Ye Jingxing, his son.

Just when everyone thought that Emperor Ruikang would not announce his abdication until the end of the year due to his personality, Emperor Ruikang who was seated at the head of the group suddenly sighed and said, “Seeing you all grow up together, I also know, we are old.”

When Emperor Ruikang said this, he did not give anyone time to react and directly waved to the servants beside him.

Seeing the attendant take out an imperial edict from his sleeve just like that, everyone sitting next to him was stunned.

‘Why is His Majesty so straightforward today? ‘

This was what most of the officials were thinking at the same time.

It was not because they wanted to, but because the Emperor Ruikang had been the emperor for more than twenty years. These officials had all gotten used to the indecisive personality of the Emperor Ruikang, just that they never would have thought that the Emperor Ruikang would be so straightforward today.

Emperor Ruikang had always been paying attention to everyone’s expressions, and seeing them reveal such expressions, he felt even more pleased with himself.

He couldn’t bear to part with the throne, but in front of his life, the temptation of the throne wasn’t that great.

The important thing was that Emperor Ruikang felt that since he had chosen a qualified successor, he would be able to pass the mountains and rivers to Yue Yang.

Thinking about it, Emperor Ruikang retracted his train of thoughts, and looked at Ye Jingxing who was beside him with satisfaction.

Seemingly the instant Emperor Ruikang regained his senses, the servant had already opened the imperial edict, looked at Ye Jingxing and said: “Fifth Prince, Ye Jingxing accepts the decree.”

Just as the attendant finished speaking, Ye Jingxing quickly got up and walked down, but before he could kneel down to receive the order, a voice suddenly came out from the originally quiet hall.

“Royal Father, even if you want to be a monk, you should be well-ordered and pass on the position to me.” As he spoke, Ye Jingche slowly stood up from his seat. In his hand was a cup, but from the very start, he had not lost a single mouthful of wine.

Hearing Ye Jingche’s words, the Emperor Ruikang immediately frowned unhappily: “Che’er, what are you doing? After this decree comes the decree of your succession. ” After saying that, he paused for a while, then looked at Ye Jingche and berated: “Hurry up and leave!”

Emperor Ruikang directly stated his own arrangements. Originally, he had planned for Ye Jingche to be accepted before taking up the position, but because he was in a good mood, he decided to take up the position first, and then announce Ye Jingche’s acceptance.

From Emperor Ruikang’s point of view, the matter of Ye Jingche passing over to the Spirit King had already been revealed a few months ago. Even if there was no imperial edict, those who should know about it should already know.

But he didn’t expect that even though Ye Jingche clearly knew about this matter, he still chose to speak his mind at this time.

When Ye Jingche heard Emperor Ruikang’s words, not only did he not retreat, he even continued to walk forward.

“Step down?” Why should I leave? ” Saying that, Ye Jingche’s eyes revealed a trace of viciousness, he looked at Emperor Ruikang and continued: These are obviously your sons, why am I adopted, and yet Ol ‘Five is the emperor? On what basis? ”

The last three words, had the feeling of being gnashed in anger coming out from Ye Jingche’s mouth.

He was indeed feeling unbalanced in his heart. He didn’t feel that he was worse than Ye Jingxing, the two of them being his mufei’s origins were similar, and he was even more so a long time. Why did he have to surpass him and pass the position to Ol ‘Five?

Looking at Ye Jingche like this, Emperor Ruikang’s heart trembled. After closing his eyes for a while, he opened them and looked at him: “Why not you? You actually dare to ask why it wasn’t you? ” Speaking up to here, Emperor Ruikang thought of the crown prince who had passed away early, “After all these years, just because I don’t say what exactly you have done, doesn’t mean that I don’t know! If I pass the throne to you, I will be letting down all the ancestors of the Ye Family, all the people in this world! ”

Just as Emperor Ruikang finished speaking, he felt an unbearable pain in his heart, and was unable to breathe.

Seeing Emperor Ruikang in such a state, Dong Shu immediately brought the undrunk warm water in front of him and placed it in front of him.

After Emperor Ruikang drank half a cup of warm water, he finally felt much better.

When Dong Shu moved, Ye Jingche had been quietly watching her movements. It was only when Dong Shu returned to the side of the Empress Hu did Ye Jingche suddenly look at him and laugh.

“Is it because of you? If it wasn’t for you, how would Xu Shiqiu be able to return to the capital? If Xu Shiqiu didn’t return, how would he be able to take over so much authority? He did not have any military power, and since Fifth Bro did not have any available generals by his side, he would not win. Without you, the Queen would have been long gone! Without the Empress, how could Royal Father take back the power of my mother’s imperial concubine? All the changes are because of you, right? ” Saying that, Ye Jingche suddenly threw away the cup in his hand and extended his hand towards Dong Shu.

Dong Shu did not expect that Ye Jingche would suddenly come to grab his, she was shocked for a moment, and when he reacted, she had already picked up something in front of his and threw it towards Ye Jingche.

Although Ye Jingche was not proficient in martial arts, he really did not care about what the woman threw at him.

However, it was this thing that he did not care about that directly smashed into his eyes.

Following a sharp pain coming from his eyes, although Ye Jingche had already closed them in time, his left eye was still in so much pain that he could not open it for a moment.

Because of this accident, Ye Jingche had lost all of his patience. He shouted directly towards the outside of the hall, “Men, tie these people up for me!”

Just as Ye Jingche finished speaking, a group of soldiers immediately rushed in.

Upon seeing these people, the officials and the servants in the main hall, who were originally stunned by the boss’s movements, immediately began to panic.

Seeing that they had started to panic, Ye Jingche laughed with satisfaction: “Haha, as long as you all listen to me obediently and wait for me to ascend the throne, I will let you all go.” After he finished speaking, Ye Jingche looked towards Ye Jingxing, Ye Jinghui and the others and said: “As for the rest of you, on behalf of this brother, we will leave you an intact corpse.”

Emperor Ruikang had not spoken a word since Dong Shu had fed him half a cup of warm water. Only when Ye Jingche revealed his ambition and killing intent towards Ye Jingxing and the others did he look at Ye Jingche and asked, “Do you really think that you can successfully ascend the throne today?”

Hearing Emperor Ruikang’s words, Ye Jingche immediately looked at him and spoke: “My good Royal Father, don’t worry, after we ascend the throne, I will arrange a good place for you.” While he was speaking, the madness in Ye Jingche’s eyes became even stronger.

Without waiting for Emperor Ruikang to speak, his gaze once again fell on Dong Shu’s body.

“Originally, I wanted to take you in for my own use. Although you’ve married someone, just the fact that you’re blessed is enough for me to give you a place of concubine.” As he spoke till here, Ye Jingche walked step by step towards Dong Shu. His original smile slowly faded, and he looked at Dong Shu fiercely: “Since you don’t know what’s good for you, then let’s die together with them!”

Just as Ye Jingche finished speaking, two soldiers came over with blades in their hands.

In that moment of life and death, Xu Nuanwen suddenly flipped the table in front of him to block the blades wielded by the two men. At the same time, Emperor Ruikang opened his mouth and shouted: “Men!”

Seeing Dong Shu being protected by Xu Nuanwen, Ye Jingche originally did not think much of it, but in the next moment, at the moment Emperor Ruikang finished speaking, a group of black-armoured soldiers suddenly rushed out from the back of the hall.

Upon seeing this group of soldiers, some officials who had seen them before immediately shouted: “Iron Eagle Brigade, it’s General Xu’s Iron Eagle Brigade!”

The moment the official’s voice fell, Xu Shiqiu, dressed in black armor, led the soldiers with Iron Eagle Brigade to quickly charge into the hall from all sides of the hall.

Seeing that Xu Shiqiu had actually instantly appeared here, Ye Jingche only panicked for a moment before calming down.

Fortunately, he had made other arrangements!

Dong Shu was ecstatic when she saw Xu Shiqiu’s appearance. She did not expect that his husband would actually come back.

Not only had he returned, it seemed that he had long since arrived at the capital. Otherwise, how could he have shown up in time?

Seeing Dong Shu lost in thought, the Empress Hu who did not speak previously immediately pulled her to her side to protect her. “Child, you do not know how to dodge.

Although Dong Shu knew that what she said was reasonable, she had not seen Xu Shiqiu for a few months. Now that she had finally seen his, how could she shift his gaze away from him?

Empress Hu had also experienced love before, so she understood Dong Shu’s feelings. Seeing her like this, she sighed and didn’t speak again.

The soldiers of Iron Eagle Brigade could not be compared with Ye Jingche’s subordinates.

It didn’t take long for the soldiers of Iron Eagle Brigade to gain control of the main hall, and take down the weapons of the soldiers, pressing them together as they waited for the Emperor Ruikang’s punishments.

As for the current Ye Jingche, although he knew that all of his subordinates had been captured, he did not show any signs of panic.

He watched as Xu Shiqiu walked towards him, step by step, and laughed wildly twice. Then, he looked at the Emperor Ruikang in front of him and spoke out, “We did not lose, even if we were to die, we will drag all of you down with us, and accompany our deaths!”

After Ye Jingche said this, the few smart people in the hall immediately felt that something was amiss.

Could it be that this Ye Jingche made some other arrangements?
