Chapter 189 The Will

Ever since the identities of Concubine Cheng's mother and child were revealed to the world, rumors abounded inside and outside the palace, saying that the old emperor favored Concubine Cheng exclusively, and also named the eldest prince Huangfu Dongwei, and rewarded him with a prince's mansion. It was the eldest prince, Huangfu Dongwei.

Ning Guifei listened to it, saw it in her eyes, and was anxious in her heart, but there was nothing she could do about it.No one could have imagined that such a big change would happen to the crown prince.

But after that day in the Golden Luan Palace, Concubine Ning Guifei tried her best to win Feng Yunkai over, but unfortunately it didn't work - the relationship between Feng Yunkai and the Crown Prince Huangfu City seemed to be getting closer and closer.

"Yunkai, I am a person under confinement, why do you come to the East Palace every day? Could it be that Fengzhuang is about to close down? Do you have nothing else to do? Or... You got the news that Father is going to attack me , so come to accompany me for the last ride?"

Not long after the eldest prince returned to the palace, the old emperor punished the crown prince Huangfucheng for "unnecessary" crimes, and made him think about his mistakes in the East Palace, and he was not allowed to leave the East Palace without an imperial edict.

But in the past half month, Huangfu City seemed to be much calmer. Coupled with various rumors, he was already surrounded by a deep sense of crisis.When talking, there is a little more helplessness and sadness, and less lively and rascal.

Feng Yunkai didn't say much, just smiled slightly: "In life, it is rare to experience great sorrow and joy, and this may not be a bad thing for the prince."

At least, he is much more mature than before.And after this time, he may cherish his identity even more.

"What do you mean?" Huangfucheng looked at her with some doubts, he knew that she was definitely not someone who said such a sentence casually.

"What I mean is, don't be impatient, the prince. Doesn't the prince still have me, the seventh son, and Fengzhuang? It's still unknown who will win the battle!" Feng Yun looked out without a trace, and smiled lightly.

Huangfucheng seemed to understand, but he didn't ask any more.

After all, in his current situation, there was nothing more he could do.The current him, except for Feng Yunkai, cannot meet anyone, and even the brothers and sisters of the Xu family are isolated, what else can he do?I can only be like the woman in front of me said, stay calm and wait for the final result.

Although I don't know why she chose him alone to support her, but I have to say that he is very happy.

Glad... When he was about to have nothing, there was her...

Just when the two were silent, suddenly a guard rushed in, his face was flustered, he didn't even salute, completely ignoring the crown prince Huangfu City, and yelled directly at Feng Yunkai: "The emperor is seriously ill, urgently summon Feng Zhuang Master to face the saint! "

Feng Yunkai immediately stood up, frowning, "The emperor is seriously ill?"

Huangfucheng also got up abruptly, his heart sank.

"Yes, the emperor suddenly fell ill, but the imperial physician was helpless and said yes..." The guard did not dare to continue, but everyone understood the meaning.

"Do you know what the emperor called me for?" With Feng Yunkai's current status and the old emperor's love for her, there is nothing wrong with her tone.

Therefore, the guard replied without any grievances: "The emperor didn't explain it, he only said that he has a big matter to discuss with Feng Zhuang Master, please come over quickly!"

Feng Yunkai looked back at Huangfu City, pursed his lips, and said: "The prince rests, I'm going to face the saint, it must be nothing serious."

Huangfu City had already calmed down at this time, he only gave a wry smile and nodded: "En."

Now that the matter has come to this point, even if the royal father wants to save him easily, or even kill him, what else can he do?Even if Yun Kai wins him a chance, what's the point of him living in this world?
It's just a... imprisoned waste prince...

Feng Yunkai had already memorized the road to the imperial palace, and soon followed the guards to the old emperor's bedroom, and saw a group of imperial doctors kneeling in front of the palace, Concubine Ning and the fourth prince, Concubine Cheng and the eldest prince, are all in the temple.

"A group of quack doctors! If something happens to the emperor, I will let you all be buried with me!" Guifei Ning scolded the imperial physician for her incompetence, but the worry in her eyes was obviously not about the old emperor's dragon body, but...

Eunuch Mo's eyes were red, and it looked like he had cried several times. When he saw Feng Yunkai, he didn't care about Concubine Ning and the others. He stepped forward and shouted: "Feng Yunkai, don't go in to meet the saint!"

"Yes, Eunuch Mo." Feng Yunkai didn't need to salute Concubine Ning, and immediately strode into the inner hall to meet the old emperor.

Eunuch Mo followed closely behind, but stopped at the door, dutifully closed the door, turned around and stood guard at the door.

Concubine Ning Gui and the fourth prince were following, and they couldn't help but sullen when they saw this.

Before the two of them had anything to say, Eunuch Mo said neither humble nor overbearing: "The emperor said, only Feng Yunkai was seen, and I would like to ask the imperial concubine and Prince Jing to wait outside."

Concubine Ning Gui was about to get angry, but the fourth prince coughed lightly, she turned her head in doubt, but the fourth prince had already walked to the outer hall, so she had to leave first.

After being far away from Eunuch Mo, the Fourth Prince said in a low voice: "The situation is unclear now, and Eunuch Mo cannot be offended. Let's wait and see what happens. Besides, there are our people inside."

Ning Guifei thought for a while, then nodded slightly.That's right, to know what the emperor said to Feng Yunkai, you don't have to hear it with your own ears - the same goes for other people's words.

A group of people, concubines and court ministers waited outside for a long time, only to see Feng Yunkai walking out of the inner hall with a heavy face.And in her hand, there was a black sandalwood box, and she didn't know what was in it.

Everyone had mixed expressions, guessing in their hearts, but they didn't dare to speak rashly, they were all waiting to see Feng Yunkai's next move.

"Lord Deng." Feng Yunkai walked up to Deng Ming, the central envoy, with a heavy face, raised the black sandalwood box with both hands, and said slowly: "The emperor has ordered that this thing be handed over to Lord Deng for safekeeping until the funeral On that day, Mr. Deng will take out this thing, Li, Xin, Jun!"

Now that the words have been said so clearly, the contents of the box can't be more clear—it must be the will!Li Xinjun's will!
Everyone was stunned. After all, they all understood Deng Ming's nature.

Like Xu Xiaolian, Deng Ming has a strong personality and is upright. Although he is a princeling, if the prince is not appointed in the will, he will definitely not lie.

At this moment, everyone understands that the emperor's heart is like a mirror!Who is loyal and who is traitor, who is reliable and who is not, the emperor knows very well in his heart, that's why he put the will in Deng Ming's hands.

Deng Ming was stunned for a long time, then slowly knelt down with moist eyes, and took the box with both hands: "Old minister...receive the order..."

Deng Ming couldn't be more clear in his heart. After he took over the will, he fell into unprecedented danger.Those who are unpredictable will not let him go.But—for the emperor's trust in him, even if he died, he would be fine!Just like his close friend, Xu Xiaolian!
Seeing Deng Ming take the box and get up, Feng Yunkai said to Wang Chengmo, the leader of the imperial guards: "The emperor has a decree: from today, the king will lead the imperial guards to protect Mr. Deng until the new king ascends the throne! If anything happens to Mr. Deng, all the guards will commit suicide and apologize!"

Wang Chengmo looked serious, and immediately knelt down to accept the order: "This humble minister accepts the order!"

The crowd was in an uproar again. It turned out that the emperor had already considered all the possibilities. With this imperial decree spoken in public, it is expected that Wang Chengmo would not dare to favor any party and harm Mr. Deng.

Who dare not listen to the imperial decree of the late emperor?Therefore, no matter who ascended the throne, as long as something happened to Deng Ming, Wang Chengmo and his Imperial Guards must die!
Concubine Ning Gui and the Fourth Prince looked at Feng Yunkai, wanting to explode, but they couldn't find a reason.Both of them were filled with anger, but there was nothing they could do about the current situation.

Back at Jingning Palace, Concubine Ning threw everything over and over again!The fourth prince watched, frowning slightly, but didn't say anything.

"Jing'er, what do you think we should do now?" At this moment, Concubine Ning Gui was completely at a loss.

After all, one can imagine who the new monarch will be in that will.If the prince is not abolished, then the new emperor will be the prince Huangfucheng; if the prince is abolished, then the new emperor must be the eldest prince Huangfu Dongwei!

"Wait for someone first." The fourth prince replied silently.

Just after saying this, a palace maid came to report that the little eunuch who was serving the old emperor wanted to see the fourth prince. Concubine Ning suddenly realized that this was the person her emperor was waiting for, so she immediately asked the palace maid to bring the little eunuch in. .

As soon as the little eunuch entered the door, he knelt down and said, "I have seen the imperial concubine and the fourth prince."

"Tell me, what did my father say to Feng Yunkai?" The fourth prince stared closely at the young eunuch's expression, trying to distinguish the authenticity of his news.

The little eunuch hurriedly said: "Responding to the words of the fourth prince, the emperor told Feng Yunkai that he wanted Feng Yunkai to swear that even if the new emperor is not the prince, he should do his best to assist the new emperor and make the world safe. The emperor also said that the ruling and opposition parties The disputes are becoming more and more serious, and Feng Yunkai is required to join hands with the new king after the new king ascends the throne, to fight the outside world and secure the inside."

Even if the new king is not the prince, Feng Yunkai must do his best to assist the new king?

Concubine Ning Gui and the Fourth Prince looked at each other, their hearts sank - it seems that the new emperor established by the will will not be a prince.

At the same time, the two of them thought of Feng Yunkai's unwilling expression, and suddenly realized that the one Feng Yunkai wanted to be loyal to was the Crown Prince Huangfucheng.

"And that's all?"

"Back to the fourth prince, that's all." The little eunuch replied honestly.

The fourth prince looked at him for a while, then nodded: "You go back and wait on me first, this king will not treat you badly."

"Thank you, Fourth Prince." The little eunuch showed joy, and Xie En stepped back.

After a long silence in the room, the fourth prince turned to Concubine Ning and said, "Concubine Mother, it seems that Father is going to appoint Huangfu Dongwei as the new monarch."

"That bitch bastard!" Ning Guifei gritted her teeth, clenched her fist, and smashed it on the table. She felt pain, but she didn't even frown.

The fourth prince was silent for a while, and then smiled inscrutablely: "Mother, don't forget that we still have a magic weapon. I'm afraid it will not be so easy for Huangfu Dongwei to inherit the great line safely..."

Concubine Ning was taken aback for a moment, then remembered, and smiled immediately.

She wants to see, after she mentions the magic weapon, is the emperor willing to change the edict, or is he willing to let the Daan Dynasty be in a state of restlessness!
