The Sickly Beauty Substitute Called It Quits - Chapter 238
The Marquis of Zhenbei looked relaxed. He knew that what his confidant said was reasonable, but also, the risk of doing so was too great.
A few days ago, a man who claimed to have the imperial decree of the late emperor suddenly came to Zhenbeihou Mansion, saying that Shang Junlin used disgraceful means to ascend the throne.
As a hereditary marquis, the Marquis of Zhenbei hoped that the Marquis of Zhenbei would make the right choice. The Marquis of Zhenbei did not agree, but only said that he had to think about it first. After the man left, he summoned his confidants to discuss matters. Make a decision.
Shang Junlin has been on the throne for so many years, and the foundation has long been solid. At this time, the risk is too great. Moreover, his son-in-law is the only person in Shang Junlin’s harem. No accident, he may be the only person who can stand by the emperor in the future. , he doesn’t need to take such a big risk to do something with an uncertain future.
“Benhou still thinks this is unreliable. When that person comes back in the future, you will say that Benhou is ill. If something happens, don’t bring him to see Benhou.” Zhenbeihou thought for a long time and made a decision.
“Master Hou!” The confidant didn’t expect that, and the words had already come to this point. The Hou Zhenbei was still unmoved, and couldn’t help but feel anxious, “Master Hou may wish to think more…”
“You want Ben Hou to rebel, inside and out, so Ben Hou wants to ask, what is your heart?!” Zhenbei Hou slammed down the table, his face ugly.
“Subordinate, subordinate just thinks that Marquis should not be wasted like this. Today’s emperor refuses to reuse Marquis. Naturally, there will be heroes who can reuse Marquis…” The speaker did not expect that the Marquis of Zhenbei would be like this In response, cold sweat crept down his back, and his voice became lower and lower.
“How about this lord, you don’t need to wait too much to put your beak.”
There are “Yinghuo” people in Zhenbei Hou’s mansion. Since someone came into contact with Zhenbei Hou’s mansion, the news was passed on to Shen Yu by “Yinghuo” people. Shen Yu knew everything that happened in Zhenbei Hou’s mansion.
“This time, he made the right decision.” Shen Yu closed the secret letter and sighed in a low voice.
What happened in the capital was reported by Yinlongwei. Yinlongwei was hiding in the dark. They were the eyes and ears of Shang Junlin. What they knew would be known by Shang Junlin in less than a day.
Those people thought they were secretive, but they didn’t know that their every move was under the surveillance of Yinlongwei.
After so many years of ascending the throne, Shang Junlin’s ability to control Dahuan’s top and bottom is far beyond the imagination of these people.
The movements of the Marquis of Zhenbei naturally could not escape the eyes and ears of Yinlongwei.
After Shang Junlin got the news from Yinlongwei, he told Shen Yu: “If Zhenbei Hou really answered those things, I don’t know what to do with him.”
Hearing that Marquis Zhenbei rejected those people after considering it, Shang Junlin breathed a sigh of relief. Marquis Zhenbei was Shen Yu’s biological father. If he did something unforgivable, as the direct son of Marquis Zhenbei, Shen Yu would definitely It will be affected, which is what Shang Junlin does not want to see.
“Your Majesty can do what you want, don’t worry about me.” Shen Yu could see what Shang Junlin was worried about at a glance.
“Even if Ayu doesn’t care, I won’t let the world feel that Ayu has a stigma.” Although this stigma was implicated by the Duke of Zhenbei.
“What is your majesty going to do with him?” Shen Yu’s voice was calm, as if they were talking about an irrelevant subject, not their biological father.
“It’s impossible to just forget what he did to you, but I can’t let him affect you. Don’t worry, Ayu, I will handle it. Or, does Ayu have any ideas?” Shang Jun Rin stroked the gloomy cheek and rubbed her fingers lightly.
“Your Majesty decides.” Shen Yu rubbed Shang Junlin’s palm back.
In his previous life, he had no scruples. Under his secret manipulation, the Marquis of Zhenbei lost everything, and the power and wealth he wanted were all vanished. The more he cared about something, the more depressed he would get. I don’t plan to use the same method to deal with the Marquis of Zhenbei. Since Shang Junlin asked, it shows that he has made a decision in his heart, and Shen Yu can rest assured to leave this matter to him.
“With Your Majesty here, I don’t seem to have to worry about anything,” Shen Yu murmured, “Your Majesty will arrange everything, right?”
“Yes, if Ayu doesn’t want to take care of it, just leave these things to me.” Shang Jun lowered his head and dropped a light kiss on the side of Shen Yu’s neck.
He doesn’t want unimportant people to occupy Shen’s attention, neither love nor hate, as long as he has himself in Shen’s eyes.
It’s best if all attention is on yourself.
This is an idea that Shang Junlin will not announce.
“How is the situation in the capital?” After being intimate with Shang Junlin for a while, Shen Yu asked about the business.
“Some ministers stood on the other side, some voluntarily, and some had the leverage in the opponent’s hands and had to stand in line. Shang Junyi has now arrived in the capital, and has met many ministers in private, waiting for the other side of the palace. When the news came, they probably should have started.” Speaking of this matter, Shang Junlin’s tone turned cold.
Shang Junyi was the 70th prince. When Shang Junlin ascended the throne, he was not yet ten years old. presence has never been high.
The fief is also an inconspicuous small place. The fiefs of these princes were sealed in advance by the first emperor, who was afraid that Shang Junlin would cut the grass and root out. The princes who were not favored, like Shang Junyi, just pointed to a place.
“His Seventeenth Highness’s fief…” Shen Yu recalled the information he saw some time ago, “It seems to be very close to King An’s fief?”
“You can get there on horseback in about half a day.” Shang Junlin replied affirmatively.
“Is it true that the seventeenth prince has the imperial decree left by the late emperor?” Shen Yu turned to ask another question, a very important reason for the defection of the noble family minister was this imperial decree, but the imperial decree was kept secretly. No one has seen it with their own eyes.
“I asked Yinlongwei to search secretly, but I didn’t find this imperial decree.” Shang Jun frowned, and he asked Yinlongwei to look for it as soon as he got the news. After so many days, Yinlongwei didn’t come. The news found, as if this matter was fabricated out of thin air.
“It can’t be bluffing news. If you haven’t seen the real thing, those ministers shouldn’t believe it so easily.” Shen Yu said.
Few of the people who can enter the dynasty as officials and stay in waves of purges are stupid people. No matter how true the lies are, it is impossible to deceive everyone.
“When His Majesty ascended the throne, what happened?” To say that the former emperor would leave such a backhand in order to guard against Shang Junlin, Shen Yu believed it. After all, even the treasury and the army could stay, and it seemed that one more imperial decree would not be enough. Strange.
“At that time…” Shang Junlin recalled the year when he ascended the throne.
He brought troops back to the capital, and what he got was not the reward he deserved, but the news that the late emperor and his favorite ministers were conspiring to seize his military power.
Entering the palace with a murderous spirit, Shang Junlin, supported by ministers who supported him, took over the imperial edict from the reluctant late emperor.
“The late emperor was very ill, he could barely get out of bed, and his time to wake up was limited every day. He wanted to seize my military power and return me to the time when I was slaughtered by others, but I didn’t know that because of his faintness, the minister had already Unable to stand him, his favored traitorous ministers committed all kinds of evils, committed public anger, and were executed by me.
Not to mention that Shang Junlin was the only direct son of the previous emperor, who should have enjoyed the throne of the prince, but said that those princes who were capable of inheriting the throne were all removed, and the remaining princes were either inferior to Shang Junlin or too old. Small, apart from Shang Junlin, the late emperor had no choice.
“There were a lot of things that happened that year, and there must be a lot of things that were wrong. Near the end of the year, several princes returned to Beijing. Under the negotiation of Prince Li and Prince An, the imperial family also stood by my side. In order to prevent accidents from happening , I sent people to guard the late emperor, and I don’t see him leaving any other imperial edicts.”
Shen Yu made up his mind and asked “Yinghuo” to also pay attention to this matter.
Shen Yu didn’t hide the existence of “Yinghuo” from Shang Junlin. The man didn’t say anything after knowing it. He knew that Shen Yu was not a weak existence that people could protect. As long as he thought about it, nothing could stop him.
“It’s a pity that the eunuchs who were highly valued by the late emperor were disposed of, otherwise they might be able to ask something from these people.”
“No matter where the decree came from, it has little impact on our plans.”
“What Ayu said is.”
Where is this imperial decree, not only Shang Junlin and Shen Yu are curious, the seventeenth prince is also very curious, and the people who have been serving him swear that there is this imperial decree, but he has never seen it.
The closer to the day of the planned action, the more uneasy the seventeenth prince became. When his brother ascended the throne, although he was young, he still knew what he should know.
To say that I don’t want to be a lie, it’s also a prince, why can’t the emperor’s brother be allowed? If he didn’t have any thoughts in his mind, he wouldn’t be here.
“His Royal Highness, it’s getting late, go back to your room and rest, so that you can better face what is about to happen.”
The seventeenth prince looked at the boundless night and turned back to his room.
Before long, he will be able to appear in this prosperous capital justifiably, he will become the new owner here, and those who looked down on him in the past will lie at his feet.
No matter how powerful Shang Junlin is, he will eventually get this position.
After serving the seventeenth prince to sleep, the **** quietly left the house and reported the seventeenth prince’s every move to the person standing in the dark.
And all of this was taken into account by Yinlongwei.
“I think I’m the ultimate winner, but I don’t know that my every move is completed in the plans of others. Should I say that the Seventeenth Highness is too arrogant, or should I say that he is too stupid?” The secret letter from Yinlongwei, Shen Yu held his chin with one hand, and a faint irony flashed in his eyes.
“It’s too much to want to fight with Your Majesty like this.”
“In Ayu’s eyes, how powerful is Zhen?” Shang Junlin took the secret letter from Shen Yu’s hand, put it aside, walked to Shen Yu’s side and sat down.
Shen Yu moved to the side, made room for Shang Junlin, and said with a smile: “Of course Your Majesty is powerful, if not, how can you make me willing to stay by your side?”
“Oh?” Shang Junlin pinched Shen Yu’s chin, “Ayu, tell me, where is Zhen so good?”
“Of course it’s great everywhere.”
“Including the bed?”
Depressed, caught off guard by the man’s straightforwardness: “…”
