Doctor Who

Chapter 227 Forcing the Crown Prince 1
When Tang Luoling returned to the Longevity Hall from Yinyue Lake, he found that the atmosphere in the hall had become strange.

While King Xia stood aside alone, Shangguan Geng protected his daughter behind him, Concubine Fu Gui sat in his seat with a calm expression on his face.

In fact, the faces of all the people in the temple became very ugly.

In contrast, Concubine Yunde knelt on the ground in fear, her hair was disheveled, and she looked terrified. An Yi also knelt beside her, and the two mother and daughter cuddled together.

What surprised Tang Luoling the most was that Tang Jincheng and Tang Luowan also knelt on the ground. She was a beauty with tears in her eyes, crying pitifully.Tang Jincheng glared at Tang Luowan, the murderous intent in his eyes unabated.

Seeing such a situation, Tang Luoling knew that a lot of dramas had already taken place in this hall after he had been out for a short while.

"Your Majesty, the death of the Crown Prince has nothing to do with Concubine Xian, should I justify Concubine Xian's name?"

Shangguan Geng stood up and asked with clasped fists.

In fact, when he learned today that Concubine Xian had been imprisoned by the Unjust Palace, he also felt guilty for the dead Concubine Xian.

Originally, he still had resentment towards King Xia today, but now he has calmed down a bit.

Qilin glanced at King Xia, then lowered her head, not looking around.

Shangguan Geng's request made the emperor sigh heavily, "I pass on my decree, Concubine Jin Xian is a noble concubine. Concubine Yunde and noble lady Wan will be given death immediately. If anyone begs for Concubine Yunde, he will be punished as treason." , Punish the Nine Clans!"

As soon as these words came out, some people in the hall who were on good terms with Concubine Yunde's mother clan wanted to plead for mercy, but they could only swallow them all, and they all dared not make a sound.

Soon, Concubine Yunde and Lady Wan gave him a glass of poisoned wine and died suddenly on the spot.

An Yi was so frightened that she passed out.

Tang Jincheng knelt on the ground, not daring to get up, trying to make himself a little transparent.He never thought that Concubine Yunde dared to do such a big thing to kill the prince back then. The most terrible thing is that today the emperor's Wanshou actually wants to poison the queen. This is simply asking for death.

Regardless of whether Concubine Yunde intends to poison the queen, she is dead today!

At this time, Tang Jincheng could only pin all his hopes on his younger brother Tang Jinyang.

He had already heard that King Zhao wanted to force the palace, as long as King Zhao succeeded in appointing a heir, at least his own life would be safe.

"Your Majesty, my concubine has some abdominal pain and wants to go back to the palace to rest."

At this time, Concubine Fugui proposed to leave first.

She was pregnant with a dragon heir, and the emperor naturally agreed, "You go back to the palace to rest first, and I will go to Jinyu Palace to see you later."

"Chen and concubine retire."

When Concubine Fugui stepped back, she glanced at Tang Luoling, and then left the Hall of Longevity.

"Your Majesty, for the sake of the stability of the Beiqiang country, I would like to invite you to make King Zhao the heir apparent tonight."

Your Majesty, Prime Minister Murong begged for the order.

The emperor smiled coldly, "Establish King Zhao as the heir apparent? Empress, is this your birthday gift to me?"

Empress Liang sat noble and generous on the phoenix throne, with a kind and gentle expression on her face, "Your Majesty, you and your concubines are not young, and it will be a matter of time before Zhao'er is appointed as the heir. It has always been a rule set by the ancestors. Now that the princes have grown up, if they do not establish a prince, I am afraid that civil strife will break out due to competition for the throne in the future. Presumably the emperor does not want to see that fate, right?"
