The reborn king is ferocious

Chapter 279
That's a good question!
Concubine Jia calmly said, "My sister is extremely suspicious. However, since the late king has been unconscious, it is understandable for my sister to pass on the decree as the king's descendant. After all, a country cannot live without a king. But my sister left the prince in On the one hand, the prince is acting on his behalf. Even if the crown prince is so willing to serve the country, the elder sister is pushing back and forth and not assisting him to ascend the throne. What is the reason? If the elder sister believes that the former king will recover from his illness, should we wait for the former king to recover from his illness? Sister So full of confidence, it is natural to know that the former king will never wake up again, so what is the intention of controlling the government with one hand?"

Concubine Jia gently wiped away the tears from her eyes, her pale and haggard face made anyone who saw her feel pity.

Empress Xiao didn't like this: "Before the king was seriously ill, I had to think about it in many ways. Now the court is full of ghosts, and the young prince doesn't have the ability to distinguish and deal with it. Especially those who seem to be interested in him on the surface. Alright, but those who harbor evil intentions secretly will encourage the prince to make irreparable wrong decisions out of selfishness. How can I let my own son take risks before I clear the obstacles for him?"

Concubine Jia turned pale when she mentioned her own son.In Tianqiong until now, only Empress Xiao has given birth to a son, and there is no suspense about the crown prince.

Concubine Jia was supposed to have a son, but Empress Xiao did it secretly, she hated Empress Xiao!

Empress Xiao deliberately mentioned this section to expose her scars, the scars that would never heal, and blood dripped as soon as they were uncovered.

Concubine Jia seemed to think of something funny, and suddenly she laughed and said, "A biological son? My younger sister doesn't have one, but what about my elder sister? Do you have one? Whose biological son is the crown prince? My elder sister can hide it from everyone in the world! As a queen , why the former king didn’t like you, why the former king wanted to target Yu Wang everywhere, others don’t know here, you think only you know and others know, unexpectedly, I also know.”

Concubine Jia said, facing the ministers, as if she had made some difficult decision, she said: "You don't need to doubt, because this matter was told to me by the late king himself. Originally, I didn't have to, and I just wanted to make this matter known to me. The scandal is rotten in my stomach, but what the Queen has done is really unbearable for this Palace, so if I want to tell the truth, Wang Youling must agree with my actions in heaven. The Queen and King Yu and the others..."

Seeing that Concubine Jia was going to use Luo Xiuyuan's mouth to confirm what the prince said just now, and to make matters worse, the past between rough Xiaohou and Yuwang was revealed, only to see a flash of snow, and then Xiaohou said angrily: "How dare you?"

In the blink of an eye, King Yu bullied himself and wanted to kill Concubine Jia to silence him, but the sword in the prince's hand had already prevented him from aiming at him.

Seeing King Yu's action, he also took a step mercilessly, rushed ahead of King Yu, put all the sword in his hand into King Yu's abdomen, and pierced it out from behind.

This time even Empress Xiao was shocked, stepped forward to support King Yu's crumbling body, and scolded the prince angrily.

King Yu didn't get caught so easily, but he didn't guard against the prince's sword and would mercilessly kill him.

The prince's face was ferocious, and he drew the sword. King Yu's wound was bloody like a fountain.

Empress Xiao knelt down on the ground, hugged King Yu tightly, her eyes sparkled, "Hold on, I'll call the imperial doctor right away."

King Yu's complexion quickly turned gray, and he grabbed Empress Xiao's hand with all his strength and said, "I, I should have this day long ago, don't bother. You, you can't be arrogant, take good care of the prince, please, please."

By now, everyone seemed to understand what Concubine Jia wanted to say just now.It turns out that there is an affair between King Yu and Queen Xiao!
Crystal tears fell on King Yu's face. This was the first time Empress Xiao cried in front of people. She raised her head angrily, and said to the prince who was also a little scared: "What are you still doing in a daze? You know you killed Who did it happen? Hurry up and call the imperial doctor!"

The prince was at a loss when he went to see Concubine Jia. Concubine Jia's sadness had turned into calmness, and she said lightly: "It's such a touching parting. In order to cover up the affair with the queen, King Yu did not hesitate to kill people in public. It's a pity. The crown prince is wise and did not let your scheme succeed. Sister, your lover is about to die, and my sister has always been kind and will not disturb you to talk about anything else."

The prince was praised so much by Concubine Jia, and the guilt in his heart turned into pride and ambition.

Empress Xiao had an affair with King Yu, it was embarrassing to tell about it, but fortunately the prince was born to Empress Xiao's sister and Luo Xiuyuan, for him, his identity would not be changed just because the palace scandal was revealed.

He also felt elated when he saw Empress Xiao fall down the clouds like this for the first time.

But when he saw Empress Xiao's red eyes and seeing him full of hatred, the prince couldn't help saying: "You have all seen that this prince is eager to save the concubine Jia, if King Yu didn't have the killing intent, how could this prince miss hurt him?"

Empress Xiao gritted her teeth and said, "Did you really miss it? What good does King Yu's death do to you? Do you know that there is no one in this world who is more loyal than him and will help you and treat you wholeheartedly. But you killed him yourself ...Okay, okay, I will give up this heart. I knew that I shouldn't have taken you into the palace to raise tigers... Do you know who you killed with your own hands? King Yu is..."

"No!" King Yu pulled Empress Xiao with his last strength: "Don't say any more, I deserved my crime, and I deserved my death. The prince needs, needs you, don't leave him..."

As he spoke, King Yu sank and died.

Empress Xiao finally sobbed, but Concubine Jia was elated, but she couldn't be too presumptuous and said: "Although King Yu died disgracefully, he can still be regarded as the king of Tianqiong. In my opinion, the crown prince should be buried generously. Don't pursue the matter any further."

"Shut up, when is it your turn to speak here?" Empress Xiao stood up suddenly, wiping away tears, still very dignified.

"What concubine Jia said was exactly what the prince wanted to say. Do you think the prince is qualified to deal with you? Queen, do you think you are still the queen who holds the Phoenix Seal and can command the world? This kind of scandal...you actually hide it so Jiu, have you ever thought about how much pain the prince will feel when he knows this kind of thing? Even if I kill you with a sword now, I believe no one here will object. "

The prince looked at the courtiers who were crawling below, and suddenly felt like he was in the world, and he ordered loudly: "Put the queen in the cold palace, and leave it to Dali Temple for interrogation before making a judgment. As for King Yu... just follow what the concubine Jia said. Doing so is a little bit of respect from the crown prince for this uncle Wang."

Empress Xiao wanted to say something, but in the end she only showed a sarcasm smile, and strode towards the palace gate with her head held high.

At this moment, a guard rushed in with a wooden box, Concubine Jia smiled and said, "What's the rush, empress? Don't you want to see Grand Master Xiao again before leaving? This is the last time."

Empress Xiao stopped in a little puzzled way, her gaze fell on the wooden box, and her color suddenly changed.

According to Tianqiong's historical records, in the cold winter of that year, Taishi Xiao was confided by his confidant...in fact, it was the secret agent sent by Concubine Jia who had been lurking beside him for many years, poured sweat medicine into the wine, and then took his head.

Since then, King Yu died suddenly, Taishi Xiao and Empress Xiao colluded internally and externally, and the crime of murdering the former king was clearly revealed.

Except for the soldiers and horses commanded by Shen Lu and his son who were far away in the southern border, the imperial court had no time to control them, and the movements of Duke Zhen's troops were unknown, and Tianqiong's soldiers and horses all fell into the hands of the prince.

When the prince chooses an auspicious day, he will commemorate the enthronement ceremony with Xiao Hou, and award concubine Jia and other meritorious ministers in the enthronement hall.

Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.

As soon as Luo Xiuyuan's funeral ceremony was over, the enthronement ceremony of Luo Tianyuan arrived.

The tense atmosphere after a coup and the sad atmosphere of the death of the virtuous king have not completely dissipated, and the Tianqiong capital is already decorated with lights and festoons, covered in red and green.

Luo Tianyuan walked vigorously on the white jade stone covered with a red carpet, and the voices of the mountains on both sides shouting "Long Live the King" resounded through the sky, and the high steps were the place he had longed for for a long time.

However, that short distance has become the longest and most difficult end of his life.

Because yesterday's allies become today's enemies!

Concubine Jia suddenly appeared on the high steps, looking down at Luo Tianyuan with pity and sarcasm.

Luo Tianyuan's heart skipped a beat, and then he said with a hasty smile: "Isn't the concubine Jia impatient to wait? The empress has made great contributions to this king's award list, and the first one to be announced later is the award for the empress."

He knew that this woman was not simple, but Luo Tianyuan knew that Concubine Jia had been able to fight Empress Xiao for many years, and she would definitely not be as weak as she seemed on the surface.

He was looking for an ally who could restrain Empress Xiao, none other than Concubine Jia.

Although Concubine Jia lost a game, as an opponent for many years, she is the one who understands Empress Xiao's shortcomings best, and Concubine Jia did not disappoint him.

Who would have thought that King Yu would have an affair with Empress Xiao, and the crown prince was not born to Empress Xiao, so if the secret is exposed, Empress Xiao will undoubtedly die.

What Concubine Jia wanted in return was difficult, but easy and reasonable.

She hated Empress Xiao, hated Empress Xiao for killing the fetus in her womb and murdering the former king, so the reward that Concubine Jia wanted was Empress Xiao's life.

Luo Tianyuan also meant the same thing.

If Empress Xiao was his biological mother, then Luo Tianyuan still had scruples and could not do anything, not because of his deep feelings for this empress, but because of the crime of killing his mother, it was difficult to convince everyone.If not, it's easy to handle.

Luo Tianyuan also promised that once he came to the throne, he would honor Concubine Jia as a concubine, and let her have no worries about food and clothing, and enjoy wealth and glory in peace.

But Concubine Jia couldn't wait to rush up the steps ahead of him and waited on the high place, which was a bit wrong.

But no matter how cunning Concubine Jia is, she has no power in her hands, and Luo Tianyuan can't think of any other tricks she can play.

Concubine Jia smiled, facing the rising sun with such a bright and charming smile that all the courtiers who looked up at the steps couldn't help marveling at her beauty.

"Luo Tianyuan, the favors you promised are indeed tempting, but how can I forget the last words of the late king because of your promises?" Concubine Jia's smile looked so cold and vicious in Luo Tianyuan's eyes.

Luo Tianyuan quickened his pace, but was stopped under the steps by the guards who suddenly appeared on both sides.
