427. The stars and the moon meet again, the sun is shining(1/2)
In the evening, the sky gradually darkened, and the lights were lit in the Yu study, illuminating Ming Yufeng's cold and solemn face was light and dark.
Yuan Chong was still kneeling on the ground, looking stunned, as if he hadn't reacted for a moment.
Ming Yufeng's eyes shot towards Ming Xu like a cold arrow: "Xu'er, are you going to rebel with Li Yue?"
Ming Xu was always a little afraid of Ming Yufeng. He subconsciously shrank his head when he heard this, his eyes dodged and he didn't speak.
"The eldest prince, have you forgotten what Weichen said to you just now? In the emperor's heart, no matter how filial or obedient you are, as long as Ming Xiu appears, there will be no way out for you!" Li Yue looked at Ming Xu and said, "Weichen can still come back alive because Weichen is a great man, not Ming Xiu's heart and ruthlessness!"
Hearing Li Yue's last words, Ming Xu suddenly clenched his fist, looked at Li Yue deeply, then looked up at Ming Yufeng, and said coldly: "Father, admit it! In your heart, my eldest son, I can't even compare to Ming Xiu's finger! My father has been exiled for so many years, and it was my mother who has been serving my father. After suffering so much, my body has fallen into the root of the disease. As a result, in my father's heart, it is still not as good as the woman who ruined my father's future, killed my grandmother, and almost killed my father! My mother always told me to wait, let me bear it, and I can't disobey my father's father's heart at any time, but I don't want to wait any longer! Because after waiting for many years, our mother and son can't warm up my father's heart!"
Ming Yufeng had calmed down, looked at Ming Xu and shook his head slightly, his eyes full of disappointment: "Xu'er, what do you want?"
"Father, don't worry, Mother cares so much about you. As long as the father deposed Ming Xiu, give me the position of crown prince, hand over military power and government affairs, I will not do anything to my father! The father can live a life with his mother!" Ming Xu looked at Ming Yufeng and said, "But if the father still insisted on not enthroning me as the crown prince and insisted on giving that position to Ming Xiu, I have no choice!"
"It's Li Yue who tells you, will he help you no matter what you want? This is what you want?" Ming Yufeng looked at Ming Xu and asked coldly.
"What are the father asking me about this?" Ming Xu said coldly, "Since I have taken this step, I have not given myself a chance to turn back! Father, it's time for you to make a choice! If you are not afraid of death for the son of Ming Xiu, you have nothing to say! When the father leaves, Er Xiu will find an opportunity to tell Ming Xiu that father has done for him, but he probably won't care at all!"
Yuan Chong on the ground suddenly stood up, blocked Ming Yufeng, looked at Li Yue and said coldly: "Li Yue, you really have the courage to be brave! Ask yourself, what the emperor treats you? Ming Xiu hurts you, you go to seek revenge on him, why do you want to deceive the eldest prince to rebel? The eldest prince treats you as a brother and a close friend. Is that what you harmed him?"
Yuan Chong's words put all the blame on Li Yue, but instead defended Mingxu, saying that Mingxu was bewitched by Li Yue.
Li Yue sneered after hearing this: "Master Yuan, now that the matter is now, don't pretend to be loyal to the emperor. Don't you feel guilty?"
Yuan Chong's face darkened. Li Yue looked at Ming Yufeng, and a sarcastic arc curled up at the corner of her lips: "Your Majesty doesn't know yet. Yin Jian was recuperating from Lord Yuan's house. The Yin family's family was also placed in an unknown place by Lord Yuan. Why did Lord Yuan tell the emperor? They were all dead?"
Ming Yufeng looked at Yuan Chong in disbelief: "Yuan Chong, even you are lying to me?"
Yuan Chong turned his head with an ugly expression and knelt down in front of Ming Yufeng again: "Your Majesty forgives your sins! Your subordinates are loyal to the emperor, and the world can be seen! You just don't want to see the son born to the emperor for that woman, being hurt again and losing everything!"
Li Yue clapped his hands and sneered: "Mr. Yuan's loyalty is really touching! Master Yuan might as well tell the emperor, what did you do after you learned about Ming Xiu's whereabouts from Yin Jian?"
Ming Yufeng looked at Yuan Chong with a very disappointed look: "Yuan Chong, tell me, what did you do?"
"I just sent that news to Emperor Ye." Yuan Chong knew that many things could not be hidden, and he thought he was not wrong. He just didn't want Ming Yufeng to recognize Ye Ningxiang's son and didn't want Ming Xiu to be the prince. He felt that Ming Xiu would definitely harm Ming Yufeng, so he did a lot of good things for Ming Yufeng without hiding Ming Yufeng, but it definitely did not include collusion with Li Yue, because he never thought of rebelling, but just wanted to get rid of Ming Xiu and let Ming Xu, who was filial and obedient to Ming Yufeng be the prince...
As for Li Yue's sudden appearance and rebellion with Ming Xu, Yuan Chong had no idea about it and did not participate.
After Yuan Chong finished speaking, Ming Yufeng raised his hand and slapped him hard, looking at him and said sternly: "I have been tolerant of you over the years, is this how you repay me?"
Yuan Chong was slapped by Ming Yufeng and vomited blood. He still said with a slap in his hands: "Everything I did is for the sake of the emperor's good! I can die for the emperor, but I don't want to see the emperor being obsessed with it anymore!"
"Your Majesty, don't be angry, and you don't need to worry about what Ye Wei will do to Ming Xiu, because what Ye Wei did is already in front of the emperor." Li Yue looked at the letter in front of Ming Yufeng and said with some meaning.
Ming Yufeng's expression condensed, he glanced at the letter, and instantly understood what Li Yue meant. After Ye Wei learned that Ming Xiu was the ruler behind the scenes of the Divine Soldier City, he did not have any trouble with the Divine Soldier City, but "kindness" sent a message to Ming Yufeng, otherwise Ming Yufeng would have been kept in the dark now.
Ye Wei's goal was achieved, because Ming Xu could no longer hold back and planned to rebel, and did not give Ming Yufeng a chance to unite with Ming Xiu smoothly.
Ming Yufeng sat back on the dragon throne, picked up the letter, folded it, looked at Li Yue calmly and said, "I will issue an order today to abolish the position of Prince of Ming Xiu and confer Ming Xu as the crown prince. Are you satisfied?"
"The emperor made a very wise choice." Li Yue's lips curled slightly, "But Weichen still has one condition."
"You said." Ming Yufeng seemed to have accepted his fate.
"I want to be the regent, take charge of the emperor's affairs and assist the prince, and ask the emperor to issue another imperial edict." Li Yue looked at Ming Yufeng and said.
"Xu'er, this is what you want?" Ming Yufeng glanced at Ming Xu.
Ming Xu said coldly: "Father, with Li Yue's literary and martial arts and wisdom, being the regent is a good thing for Tianming Kingdom!"
Ming Yufeng didn't even look at Ming Xu again, and nodded with a faint expression: "I understand that you did not take away my throne directly. You want to be justified and not criticized. That's what you wish."
"Why don't the emperor resist?" Li Yue looked at Ming Yufeng and said in deep eyes. With Ming Yufeng's strength and mind, Li Yue felt that his current performance was a bit abnormal. Even for the sake of survival, he would not compromise so quickly.
"Because I know you very well." Ming Yufeng looked at Li Yue and said lightly, "You are back from the dead and forced me to come back here. It is impossible for me to come alone. I must have made complete preparations and will not give me a chance to turn over. I have never doubted Yuan Chong, the queen, or the Ming Xu. It is because I am careless, and there is nothing to say at this moment."
Although no one has mentioned that Xue Rouer colluded with Yuan Chong or was aware of Ming Xu's behavior so far, Ming Yufeng has guessed it.
"Weichen has always respected the emperor very much, and now it is the same." Li Yue's lips curled slightly, "For the last condition, please ask the emperor to take this medicine, so we can feel at ease to serve the emperor again."
Li Yue took out a medicine bottle and threw it at Ming Yufeng.
Ming Yufeng did not reach out to pick it up, and the medicine bottle fell steadily on the table in front of Ming Yufeng. Ming Yufeng glanced at it, his eyes slightly dim: "What is here?"
"Don't worry, yourselves, it's just a kind of poison that is not hindered by the body." Li Yue said expressionlessly, "As long as the emperor does not do what he shouldn't do, there will be no problem. By the way, there is more than one miracle doctor in the Divine Weapon City, and both Ming Xiu and his wife are, but the emperor must believe that the things that Weichen took out cannot be solved by their skillful medical skills, so don't do stupid things."
"If I don't eat and don't agree to your conditions, will you really kill me?" Ming Yufeng looked at Li Yue and asked.
"No, the eldest prince has said that the Empress loves the Emperor deeply, how can she bear to let the Emperor die?" Li Yue shook her head, "But by then, the Emperor will not be as good as it is now. Oh, by the way, I have poisoned the third, fourth, and fifth princes. I would like to remind the Emperor, don't be impulsive."
Ming Yufeng closed his eyes with a painful expression, reached out and held the medicine bottle: "Li Yue, if you dare to kill my son, I will not let you go."
"Haha, I thought the emperor had only Ming Xiu's son in his heart." Li Yue chuckled, "But please don't worry, I'm not that cruel. From today on, our Tianming Kingdom has only changed a prince, and there is no other change. The emperor has more rest time in the future, so please leave the state affairs to Weichen and the prince's palace to take care of."
Ming Yufeng looked at Li Yue with a cold expression. Li Yue said indifferently: "Emperor, take the medicine. I will polish the ink for the emperor and prepare to issue an edict."
Yuan Chong, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly stood up, rushed over, snatched the medicine bottle from Ming Yufeng's hand, blocked Ming Yufeng, and looked at Li Yue and said coldly: "You traitor! You are so harmful to the emperor! Your Majesty quickly go and find General Beitang!"
"Master Yuan is really a person who is incomprehensible. If you really talk about it, the first person who betrayed the emperor was Master Yuan." Li Yue snorted coldly, "Give the medicine back to the emperor, and then get out of here, otherwise don't blame me for being rude to you!"
"Li Yue, if you want to harm the emperor today, step over my body!" Yuan Chong said coldly, throwing the medicine bottle to the ground, and a red pill inside rolled to the side, and Yuan Chong drew his sword and attacked Li Yue.
Ming Yufeng did not stop him. He looked coldly and saw that Li Yue's strength had improved a lot compared to before. Ming Yufeng had once discussed with Li Yue and had some understanding of Li Yue's original strength. He guessed that Li Yue might have had any adventures during the period when he disappeared.
Ming Yufeng's strength is comparable to Li Yue's original strength. When Li Yue appeared this time, Ming Yufeng noticed a strong aura in the dark staring at him. He made such a choice not because he was afraid of death, but because he didn't want to die at the hands of Li Yue, nor did he want to die now. He still had a lot of things to do.
Yuan Chong's strength is not as strong as Ming Yufeng, and he has no chance of winning against Li Yue now. However, after a few dozen moves, Yuan Chong was beaten by Li Yue and he was repeatedly retracted and vomited blood.
"Stop!" Ming Yufeng took action and ended the battle.
"The emperor is kind. Do you care about Lord Yuan's betrayal?" Li Yue said meaningfully at Ming Yufeng.
"After this matter, I can't change anything if I care or not." Ming Yufeng said with a faint expression, "Yuan Chong, send Yin Jian here, from now on, I don't want to see you again."
"Emperor! You can't let Li Yue..." Yuan Chong looked at Ming Yufeng anxiously.
Ming Yufeng raised his hand and stopped Yuan Chong from continuing: "You go, if I change my mind, you will regret it."
Yuan Chong lowered his eyes slightly, covered a dark light in his eyes, put away the sword and turned around to leave, Li Yue's steps slightly turned, blocking Yuan Chong's way, and the sword in his hand was also placed on Yuan Chong's neck.
Yuan Chong looked at Li Yue with a cold look: "You traitor! If you want to kill and cut, you will be the only one who wants to kill and kill!"
"Emperor, Lord Yuan is really loyal. Unfortunately, he is too self-righteous and does not know what the emperor wants." Li Yue sneered, "Give the emperor ten breaths to pick up the medicine and eat it, otherwise, Weichen will help the emperor solve Lord Yuan."
"Li Yue!" Yuan Chong clenched his fists and said sternly, "How can you be so shameless? The emperor has treated you well over the years!"
"Haha, why is Lord Yuan so naive?" Li Yue finished speaking and looked at Ming Yufeng again, "Your Majesty, it's time to make a choice."
Yuan Chong looked at Ming Yufeng with a painful expression and picked up the red pill from the ground. Yuan Chong said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, it's me that I was wrong! It's me that I'm sorry to you!"
Yuan Chong finished speaking, closed his eyes and rushed forward, trying to seek death, but Li Yue was prepared and did not let him succeed.
"Li Yue, you will be repaid with grudges and you will not die well! The eldest prince, you will regret it! You will definitely regret it!" At this moment, Yuan Chong was only concerned about Ming Yufeng, and he also realized that he was too stupid before. He thought that getting rid of Ming Xiu and supporting Ming Xu was a good thing for Ming Yufeng, but seeing Ming Xu who obeyed Li Yue's advice and disobeyed Ming Yufeng now, Yuan Chong felt like a wake-up call, knowing how stupid he was! He didn't understand Ming Xiu at all, nor even Ming Xu who was watched by him. He really didn't think about harming Ming Yufeng, but he was too self-righteous!
"Let him go, he is of no use to you, and he can't cause any storm." Ming Yufeng didn't look at Yuan Chong. He took the medicine and looked at Li Yue with a faint expression, "You probably didn't return to Tianzhao City today. General Beitang's mansion has been controlled by you, right? I admit it. You can get whatever you want, but don't kill people, it's no good for you. When I found you back from Qisha City, I told you that you have to change your temperament and don't think everyone is sorry for you."
Li Yue's expression froze, and she looked at Ming Yufeng and said coldly: "Don't preach to me in a hypocritical way!"
"Forget it." Ming Yufeng put the medicine in his hand into his mouth. The next moment, a mouthful of blood spurted out, his body trembled, and he didn't fall down while holding Long Ke.
"Emperor..." Yuan Chong's eyes turned red, and he reached out to grab Li Yue like crazy. Li Yue raised his hand and knocked Yuan Chong away.
Li Yue looked at Ming Yufeng and sneered: "I forgot to tell the emperor that that medicine will destroy the emperor's skills that he had worked hard for many years. But with the emperor's temperament, I guess he would think about it."
Ming Yufeng lowered his head, vomiting blood, and his eyes were covered with gloom. At this moment, the door of the Yu Study room opened, Xue Rouer rushed in, looking at Yuan Chong lying on the side in disbelief, Ming Yufeng was covered with blood, and Ming Xu stood behind Li Yue and watched coldly.
"Emperor! What's wrong with the emperor?" Xue Rouer stumbled towards Ming Yufeng and reached out to support Ming Yufeng.
Ming Yufeng shook his hand and pushed Xue Rou'er away. He wiped the blood on the corner of his mouth, as if he had become several years old in an instant. He smiled bitterly and murmured: "I shouldn't have come back to be this emperor... from the beginning... I've been wrong... wrong..."
"Emperor..." Xue Rouer went to pull Ming Yufeng again.
Ming Yufeng turned his head and looked at her, and his eyes were extremely cold: "What you want... what your son wants...I gave it...Don't bother me again..."
Ming Yufeng finished speaking, pushed Xue Rou'er away, walked out of the door of the Yushuo's study room with empty eyes, as if he had lost his soul. In his hand, he was still holding the secret letter sent by Ye Zhao, which said that Ming Xiu was in the Divine Weapon City.
Xue Rouer glanced at Li Yue coldly, then pulled Ming Xu over, frowned and looked at Ming Xu and asked, "Xuer, what did you do?"
"Mother, from today on, I will be the prince of Tianming Kingdom. Is the Queen of Mother unhappy?" Ming Xu looked at Xue Rouer and smiled.
"Xu'er! The mother wants you to be the prince, but you can't do anything to hurt your father!" Xue Rou'er looked at Ming Xu and said sternly. Her secret collusion with Yuan Chong was not to steal Ming Yufeng's throne, but to get rid of Ming Xiu and let Ming Xu be the prince. From this perspective, what she and Ming Xu wanted were not exactly the same.
Ming Xu reached out and put his hand on Xue Rouer's shoulder: "My mother, you should stay with your father and take care of him from now on. You don't have to worry about anything else. Without Ming Xiu, even if that person comes back, no one will admit his identity."
Xue Rouer looked stunned, and was hugged by Ming Xu and forgot to take a look at her previous ally Yuan Chong.
Li Yue's eyes fell on the dragon chaise, and an unknown light flashed in her eyes, and she suddenly turned and left.
On that day, Ming Yufeng issued an order to abolish the position of Prince Ming Xiu, and conferred the eldest prince Mingxu as the crown prince, and informed the world that he was in good health and needed to rest. Next, he would serve as the regent of Li Yue, who had been reborn from the dead, and assisted Prince Mingxu and deal with the affairs of the Tianming Kingdom.
Although the emperor of the Tianming Kingdom royal family has not changed, the sky has changed. This news is spreading very quickly. Ming Yufeng moved into a palace that belonged to him. No one was seen except an old eunuch who served him for many years. And there was another person beside him, Yin Jian, which is neither human nor ghost. As for what Ming Yufeng learned from Yin Jian, no one knew.
Li Yue went to see Ming Yufeng once more than ten days later. Ming Yufeng, who was originally in his prime, turned gray all night. No matter what Li Yue said, he did not respond.
The news about the change of the sky in the Kingdom of Heaven has not yet been spread to the Divine Soldier City. This day is the happy day for the whole city of Divine Soldier City to celebrate again, because Xiao Yue'er's baby is full of the moon!
It was October 15th. According to Mu Yan's instructions before leaving, the full moon banquet had been prepared. He once again placed a flowing table in the square next to the Divine Armor, and welcomed everyone to the banquet and celebrate together. It is worth mentioning that on the ancient Bodhi tree on Bodhi Island, many people even hung red cloth strips for Xiao Xing'er and Xiao Yue'er to pray for red cloth.
The city lord's mansion was also decorated with lights and colorful colors, which was very festive. It was not done by Xiao Yuesheng, nor by Mu Yan's order. It was arranged by several idle old men, because they all like Xiao Yuesheng's son very much.
Qi Yuchan, who had just left the confinement school early this morning, put on a red dress, pinched the flesh on her waist, frowned slightly, and asked Xiao Yuesheng: "Brother Yue'er, am I much fatter?"
"I like it." Xiao Yuesheng pulled Qi Yuchan over and kissed her with a smile, rubbed Qi Yuchan's face, and felt that the touch was very good. "Let's go out quickly, grandpa and the others are waiting for us to come and have a banquet."
To be continued...
