MTL - Boss Level Face-Slapping Specialist [Quick Transmigration]-Chapter 568 The back house wives and concubines are born again (16)
The emperor was closely monitoring the movements of the four princes and the fifth princes. What happened in the fifth prince's mansion was immediately reported.
A side concubine of the Liu family dared to beat the fifth prince. Even if the emperor was displeased with this son, he would not allow Liu to ride on the head of the fifth prince. Doesn't this mean that the Liu family doesn't put the royal family in their eyes? !
The emperor asked people to keep an eye on Liu's family and Liu's family, and called Xu Zifan to ask, "Lao Liu, what's the matter with you and Liu's family? Why did I hear that you asked someone to send a letter to Lao Wu, and they both started fighting. Up?"
Xu Zifan said frankly: "Liu's brother showed her good to Erchen with Brother Wuhuang on his back. After Erchen refused, she still did not give up. Erchen was unwilling to have a rift with Brother Wuhuang for this kind of life, so she told him about the matter. , But Erchen didn't expect them to fight."
The emperor frowned and said displeased: "This Liu family is too shameless, how did she teach her daughter? Today she dares to beat the fifth child, will she dare to beat me tomorrow?"
Xu Zifan wanted to say something but stopped, the emperor saw it and said, "What do you want to say? But it doesn't matter."
"Yes, father, my son always felt that Liu's attitude was not right." Xu Zifan muttered, "three years ago, Liu gave the fragments of the exercises to his son, saying that she could not understand the mystery. Before leaving Beijing, I went to Liu’s house and asked about the fragments. Liu’s father and daughter said that there was only one fragment and nothing else. But this time when my son met Liu, she felt that she had changed amazingly and her appearance was several times better than before. She seems to be a little bolder in her actions, and she doesn't care about secular etiquette. Father, do you think she will..."
The emperor narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment, and said coldly: "It is indeed possible that Liu's family may have a complete exercise that will not give it. Okay, you can go back. If Liu's come to you again, you can hold her and watch her. What do you want to do?"
"Yes, Erchen retire." Xu Zifan bowed out of the Imperial Study Room and returned to the palace with his three children.
Within two days, the fifth prince had an accident. He first fell into his own pond, then rolled down on the rockery in the Royal Garden, and then when he rode a carriage back to the house, the horses were suddenly startled, ran wildly, and went straight to the cliff.
The emperor sent to monitor the five princes. When the five princes were about to fall off the cliff, they were rescued in time and sent to the palace. As a result, the five princes coughed and coughed again when they were taking the medicine, and stopped after an hour. After such a tossing, the fifth prince didn't even have the strength to get up!
The emperor was so shocked that Xu Zifan sent a large number of personnel to investigate these incidents thoroughly. He would not believe it was a coincidence, all coincidences in the royal family were conspiracy.
But the fifth prince is the function of the heavenly bad luck charm, of course no one can find anything. The only fortunate thing is that the emperor's air has a natural suppressive effect on all evils. When the five princes live in the palace, the heaven-level bad luck charm becomes the level of ordinary bad luck charm.
The emperor sent the five princes out of the palace once, and the five princes were about to have an accident. Once they returned to the palace, they were much better. Such an obvious difference made the emperor suspicious, and called several Dao leaders who had come to help him study the exercises, and asked them if it was related to Dao.
Several Taoist leaders are the world’s strongest understanding of Taoism, and they really saw the three-point way, asserting that the five princes are suffering from disasters, and only under the protection of the emperor can they live more peacefully, but they must be completely eliminated. , They can do nothing.
When the emperor thought of what Xu Zifan said that day, he was the first to suspect Liu. The exercises he practiced came from Liu Jiazu, and the changes in Liu's appearance and attitude are obviously facts, which shows that Liu's family must have concealed something. It would not be surprising if the Liu family had any methods to curse and harm others.
How could the emperor allow others to practice? Not to mention that someone is allowed to hide privately and own things that he doesn't have. Furthermore, the fifth prince is his biological son. Liu dared to harm the fifth prince, but did not put the royal family in his eyes. Who knows if he will harm him in the future? !
The emperors were all suspicious, and would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one pass. Both the Liu family and the Liu family became the emperor's focus.
The good and bad things that the Liu family had done for decades were turned out, and how much blood the Liu family had stained in the backyard was also found out clearly. Also that day, Liu was not afraid to fight with the Fifth Prince, as if nothing had happened. Compared with normal people, her reaction was too strange.
Liu's consciously hid it well, but she didn't know that the emperor was pretending to be sick, let alone that the emperor would monitor the five princes, and control everything in the palm of her hand, just so unconsciously exposed.
One day when he went to court, Yu Shi suddenly launched an attack and listed the top ten crimes of the Liu family. Liu's father was shocked and he was in a hurry. Xu Zifan had already been ordered by the emperor to demote Liu's father to three levels in succession and transfer him out of the capital.
Liu's father was originally a member of the second rank of the capital, and now he has been transferred to a remote and barren place even after being lowered to the third rank. This is a far cry from the past, and was completely rejected by the emperor. Immediately afterwards, Concubine Liu Fang in the residence of the five princes died suddenly. During the turmoil of the court, the disappearance of Liu did not cause any disturbance.
The fragments that Liu gave at the beginning can at best draw air into the body and nourish the body, but it is of no use. She didn't know that there were other cultivators in this world, and she thought she could look down upon everyone in this world when she cultivated to the second level of Qi training.
In fact, the emperor had already cultivated to the second level of Qi training, and even the four secret guards around him had cultivated to the second level of Qi training. Moreover, unlike Liu's exercises without attacking spells, the emperor practiced Xu Zifan's supplementary exercises, which could be practiced without any dragon energy, and there were double attacks and defenses. The four secret guards who went to catch Liu's naturally caught one of them, and after doing it, they really confirmed that Liu's was indeed a cultivator.
The emperor ordered the Liu family to be locked in a specially made dungeon, guarded by two dark guards day and night. Liu really panicked now, she couldn't figure out how there would be people like her in the world. Or it's different, they are better than her!
Liu did not think that the emperor pretended to be ill. She shouted blankly from the cell: "Did the Sixth Prince let you arrest me? The Sixth Prince had found the exercises outside for three years? No way, how could this be possible? What did the prince catch me for?"
The emperor asked the dark guards to interrogate Liu, but the two dark guards he arranged were Xu Zifan's people. They were one of the dark forces that Xu Zifan had developed in the past three years, and had been controlling the emperor's movements by his side.
Xu Zifan wanted the emperor to know what the dark guard reported to the emperor. So the emperor knew that Liu had indeed hidden a few fragments privately, but her practice was not complete, and she hadn't cultivated anything at all, so she could only strengthen her body and beautify her face.
This can be seen from the dark guards being able to catch her, the emperor naturally believed.
The dark guard also said that there was a bad luck charm in the fragments Liu got. She was extremely precious and had never had the opportunity to use it. She didn't use it on the fifth prince until the fifth prince was about to clean up the Liu family. There is only this one, no more luck charm.
The emperor sent someone to search all of Liu's things, and found no spells or strange things at all, so naturally he believed it.
The emperor was puzzled by Liu's entanglement with Xu Zifan, but this was a good answer. Liu wanted to be prosperous and wealthy, and wanted to be the queen mother in the future. Naturally, whoever had the opportunity to be in power would want to marry someone.
All the emperor's doubts were explained. The only regret was that he didn't get the slightest benefit from Liu's body, and asked nothing more. The emperor gave him a glass of poisoned wine and simply ended Liu's life.
The fifth prince was fine, but because of the bad luck talisman, he lost his life and was no longer able to take part in the seizure of his concubine. The courtiers who followed him were in trouble, and their pigtails were pulled out. The four princes Xiwen, it is impossible to make a major event at all, and the remaining parties of the elder prince, the second prince, and the third prince were successively dealt with by the emperor.
During this period, Xu Zifan kept saying that the emperor's health had improved, but no one believed him. Everyone believed that Xu Zifan was taking advantage of the emperor to eradicate dissidents. After a great purge, the emperor returned to the court and everyone was shocked!
The most shocked were the women in Xu Zifan's backyard. The princess, concubine Yang, and concubine Chen were on the emperor's good day and stayed up all night. They couldn't figure out what the emperor could do. They looked refreshed. This is not right. The emperor should have died of illness a long time ago. How could he not only survived for a while but he was better than before?
So what is Xu Zifan's prison? What are the three of them fighting over? If they knew it hadn't come to the throne, why would they suppress each other like this? Now that the Zhang family, the Yang family and the Chen family have become idle jobs, they are not as good as before. The three of them also revealed their shortcomings during this period, which annoyed Xu Zifan. What should they do in the future?
Li Yurong is something that travellers don't know will happen, so she just regrets, but still holds great hope. Now that the first five princes are all abolished, isn't Xu Zifan, the sixth prince who has been in prison, still the most likely successor? What's the hurry?
The three women barely calmed down when she knew her thoughts, comforted themselves, and waited bitterly for the day when Xu Zifan became the throne.
In addition to their thoughts, there were also a small number of courtiers who thought the same, and even guessed the holy intentions and asked the emperor to make Xu Zifan a prince. Of course, there are very few courtiers of this kind.
The emperor had long expected this to happen, and he had already thought out how to deal with it. However, before he made any decision, Xu Zifan took the initiative to ask to leave Beijing.
"Father, the imperial court has just gone through the turbulence, so there should not be any more changes. The hearts of the people are unpredictable, and the sons think that only by completely cutting off their thoughts can the court be stabilized. The sons ask the father to give a piece of land, Yooner-chen stays away from the capital. The son-chen will continue to look for rare and exotic treasures outside the city in the future, and give them to the emperor.
The emperor was taken aback, and smiled helplessly, "You are the one who sees most clearly."
He was silent for a moment, and had to say that from the bottom of his heart, he believed Xu Zifan was the best successor, the best candidate for the prince. But his body can still live for several decades. By then Xu Zifan will not be young anymore. If Xu Zifan stays in the capital, the court will surely regenerate waves in the next few decades, and it may not affect the relationship between their father and son.
The emperor sighed and reluctantly said: "I have agreed, you choose a place you like, I will give you a fief, you will be named the King of Xiaoyao, and you will be allowed to leave the fief and enjoy the mountains and rivers, and you will be free in the world."
Xu Zifan smiled and said, "Thank you, Father."
Many people are still thinking about it. Xu Zifan has suddenly left Beijing again, and will almost never come back this time. He is going to a distant fief with his family.
The princess fainted instantly when she knew about it. Concubine Yang, Concubine Chen, and Concubine Li were dumbfounded as to what to do. They don't understand why they are so dismissed as idle princes who clearly want to succeed to the throne? What do they do? !
