Chapter 61 Queen
On December 14, 721, the prince was assassinated and died.
The emperor was furious and ordered a thorough investigation. When the queen, who was already lingering in the harem, heard the news, she even spit out blood and was unconscious.
When Lin Shen reported the news to the third prince in the palace, Yan Weiliang was leisurely brewing a pot of tea. He didn't even move his eyebrows and his movements were smooth and free.
"He is indeed quick."
Lin Shen was puzzled: "Your Highness knows who did it?"
"Who else can it be?" Yan Weiliang looked at the swaying heat above the teacup and said three words gently, "Chu Yuwen."
Lin Shen was stunned: "How did your Highness know..."
"I asked him to do it." Yan Weiliang said.
Lin Shen was confused.
"He is not with Your Highness..." He has been in a rift for a long time, how could he help?
Yan Weixuan is indeed not in the same state. Yan Weiliang, Chu Yuwen, or even Su Yu, can clean up the prince if he takes any action. Yan Weixuan and them are not on the same level as them.
But no one of them took action, and Yan Weixuan had been jumping for so many years.
Because no matter who takes action first, it will lead to the use of the other two, which is really a hassle. The three-party balance has been maintained for many years, and breaking it will inevitably mean a big change.
But now, first the fifth prince had an accident, and then the prince was assassinated.
After years of undercurrents, the empire pattern finally couldn't maintain its surface calm and was about to start to stir up storm.
"There are no eternal enemies in the world, only eternal interests. Is it strange that I joined forces with him?" Yan Weiliang calmly drank tea.
"No, it's not strange." Although Lin Shen said this, he couldn't hide his question mark at all.
It’s not surprising that who joins forces with anyone for the sake of interests, but Your Highness and Chu Yuwen???
It's really strange! These two people have almost killed each other for so many years. Such a deep hatred can they join forces?!
Lin Shen can only admire those who are in power to be able to tolerate and achieve great things.
"Wait, Your Highness." Lin Shen suddenly thought of something and looked up suddenly, with shock, sympathy, unbearable, admiration... all kinds of complex emotions.
Yan Weiliang raised his eyes: "What are you doing when you look at me like this?" What kind of drama did Lin Shen add to himself in his mind?
Lin Shen asked carefully: "Did you use Ruian's identity... to blow the wind beside your pillow... to make Chu Yuwen willing to kill the prince?"
Lin Shen thought about it and felt that his identity as a highman was completely opposite to Chu Yuwen. How could Chu Yuwen help His Highman?
The only possibility is that Your Highness uses Ruian’s identity and Lan Yan’s misfortune, which makes Chu Yuwen willing to agree to anything.
Throughout history, there are many beauties. Heroes have been sad about the beauty. When the wind blows by the pillow, what can’t be done?
Yan Weiliang: "..."
Yan Weiliang said gently: "Come here."
Lin Shen came over in confusion: "What are you doing-ah! Hiss-hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Yan Weiliang poured the newly boiled tea on the back of Lin Shen's hand.
Alpha has a strong body, and this temperature will not cause any physical damage to Lin Shen, but will be burned in an instant.
Yan Weiliang said lightly: "Look at your brain, is it blistered by burning?"
Lin Shen no longer felt the pain after a moment of pain. Alpha has a strong ability to heal himself, and this burn is nothing to do. It just makes people feel wronged: "Your Highness, I'm burning my hands, not my brain."
Yan Weiliang: "Oh" said: "Then what nonsense are you talking about?"
Lin Shen immediately said: "I didn't say nonsense! It's not true that Your Highness turned into Ruian and seduced Chu Yuwen--"
Yan Weiliang poured another cup of tea, and Yun Danfeng asked softly: "Do you want another cup?"
Lin Shen shut up and made a zipper to his mouth.
Lin Shen stopped his gossip and began to talk about the serious matter: "As soon as the prince dies, you will be the only prince who can take on the great responsibility. You have us and you will also be assisted by the Ji family. If Chu Yuwen doesn't go against you, a cabinet is nothing. Besides, I think that boy Su Yu likes you so much... It is the general trend for you to ascend the throne!"
Yan Weiliang raised his eyelids lazily: "After having been with me for so many years, why are you still so naive?"
Lin Shen was confused: "Isn't it?"
Yan Weiliang said: "You think Your Majesty is dead? Su Yu is emotional? You all think he is infatuated with me. After so many years, he has not seen him let go of power. I am fighting with Chu Yuwen, and he is verbally helping me. He may not take much action. He just waits for the cabinet to reap the benefits of the fisherman. He is the most sober, don't be deceived."
Lin Shen swallowed: "I think you are the most sober..." It's sobering that it's scary.
The entire imperial capital nobles felt that Su Yu was obsessed with the third prince, and even the cabinet itself thought so.
But Yan Weiliang was very awake from beginning to end and was not fascinated by the sugar-coated shells.
It is said that the authorities are confused by the bystanders, but all the bystanders are deceived by Su Yu, and Yan Weiliang, the institution, is still Qingming.
It's scary, it's scary.
"Wait, Yan Weiyuan is dead, some people will not be able to sit still." Yan Weiliang put the teacup on the table, "There are also some people who should atone for what they did back then."
Lin Shen thought for a while: "You mean...the queen?"
Yan Weiliang lowered his eyes: "Yes."
"I have a son deposed and lost the prince in a blink of an eye. She must be so sad that she can't afford to come."
"I should go and send her...the last journey."
Queen's bedroom.
"Third Prince, the queen is seriously ill, you can't go in." Although the palace maid stopped him, she didn't dare to stop him too tightly.
The third prince was originally the most outstanding child of the royal family, but His Majesty had insisted on making Yan Weixuan the crown prince before. Yan Weixuan was the eldest son and could barely convince the public, but now Yan Weixuan is dead.
Although His Majesty has many descendants, most of them are beta and o, and they have the ability to compete for the throne.
The prince is dead, and the other son of the queen, the fifth prince, is also like a deposed person. It is clear at a glance which is more important than a prince who has lost favor and power but has lost his son or a prince who is loved and has a bright future.
Yan Weiliang said: "Get out."
"..." The palace maids stopped them symbolically and quickly left obediently.
In the bedroom.
A haggard woman lying on the gorgeous big bed, she could still vaguely see her beauty when she was young. In the interstellar era, humans lived a long lifespan, and she shouldn't have been so old, but she was ill in bed all year round. Coupled with the recent blow from her two sons, she looked very bad.
She was in a daze of nightmare, constantly muttering: "Don't come over...Don't kill me...Don't come over!" She suddenly opened her eyes and saw a young man with picturesque eyebrows standing by the bed, full of beauty, like a person in a dream.
She murmured: "…Ganlin."
The young man said lightly: "You really know my mother."
No one knows who the third prince’s biological mother is.
The emperor was romantic, with many beauties, and his biological mother had many imperial heirs. It was only Yan Weiliang's extraordinary appearance that made everyone curious about his life experience.
But no one knows this secret.
No one knew that the emperor had imprisoned Queen Gan Lin, who was greedy for her beauty, forced her to give birth to a son for him. Finally, she scraped off her scales, swallowed her flesh and blood, and enhanced her strength.
But obviously, the queen knew.
The queen on the sickbed's eyes gradually became clear: "It turns out that it's you, the bastard..."
She sneered: "What? Come to see my joke?"
Yan Weiliang went straight in with one blow: "I'm not here to talk to you about the past, I'm here to send you to death."
The queen was stunned and her expression became frightened: "Dare you dare?!"
Yan Weiliang said calmly: "I smashed the wound on the back of Yan Weiyuan's head. I saw with my own eyes that Yan Weixuan was killed, and I made someone do it."
He smiled slightly: "Do you think I dare not kill me?"
The queen widened her eyes and cried hysterically for a while: "Ahhhhh!!! Beast! I would have known today, I should have killed you!"
"Didn't you do this? You have wanted to kill me for a long time. But you are not capable." Yan Weiliang said calmly, "At the age of four, you asked someone to drown me in the pool, and I killed someone. At the age of six, you asked someone to throw me downstairs, but I pushed the person down. You used this to say that I deliberately killed someone and was vicious at such a young age. I used my mental power to change everyone's memories and make them feel that nothing happened. But you won't really forget it, right?"
"I still remember. At the age of seven, I learned riding. You fed my horse crazy medicine to make me fall to death. Unexpectedly, I was strong and unharmed. At the age of eight, I used my mental power to bind my mental power to cut me off twelve swords, and then I broke the chain and cut off your confidant. I was still eleven and thirteen…"
"At the age of fourteen, you poisoned my pastry and I discovered it. Later, you could no longer plot against me." Yan Weiliang chuckled, "Because at that time I had broken down the power of my parents behind you, and I had no scruples anymore. I fed the poison to you, so you can't afford to be sick for so many years."
"I controlled the dose and didn't kill you. I wanted you to live for a hundred years and suffer for a lifetime."
"You, you-" the queen was blocking her throat in one breath, "Everyone said that the third prince was as bright as a bright moon as jade, that was because they didn't know your viciousness! You could kill people at the age of four, the empire's bright moon? A joke, you have long been completely black in your bones!"
"I am vicious at the age of four. If you want to kill me at the age of four, aren't you vicious?" Yan Weiliang said softly, "No one can plot against me, and he can escape after hurting me."
"Hahahahahaha!" The queen suddenly burst into laughter, "If you want to take revenge, take revenge on me! You are so outstanding that you threaten Weixuan's status, so I want to get rid of you! I have been like this by you, why haven't you let my son go!"
"My mother has been like this by you, why don't you let her son go?" Yan Weiliang sighed softly, "After I got the mermaid pearl, I received some inheritance and memory. Among them is the image of my mother before her death. She was scraped off a whole piece of fish scales by someone... and it was your hand that I used to move."
"Because of jealousy?" Yan Weiliang seemed puzzled. "The emperor had countless lovers, but only his mother was beautiful, so you were jealous of her and wanted to kill her all the time."
The queen didn't reply again, obviously because she was told to the point.
"I'm talking a little bit nonsense today. I'm here to see you off." Yan Weiliang's hand slowly turned into a mermaid form, and his nails were extremely sharp.
The queen said in horror: "What do you want to do?!"
"One report to another report." Yan Weiliang tilted his head, "You scrape off my mother's fish scales and I'll peel you a layer of skin, right?"
When death is about to begin, the queen is afraid. She shouts wildly: "I want to find your father! He wants to kill your mother, I'm just doing it for him! Don't kill me, don't-ah!"
Blood dripped on the ground and formed shallow puddles of water.
Yan Weiliang lowered his eyes.
"Don't worry, he's not far from death."
