Chapter 440: Everyone Wants to See the Emperor

The emperor hadn't started the surgery yet, and the surgery wasn't too complicated. Zian was not in a hurry, he just made a mask first.

When the crown prince and Concubine Liang came in, Zi An was half squatting beside the bed, the emperor's sleeves were rolled up, revealing a small face, which made the Crown Prince and Concubine Liang turn pale in fright.

The emperor narrowed his eyes, suppressed the fury in his eyes, and gently squeezed out a word from his peeling lips, "My good emperor and my good queen are here!"

These words were very gentle, to the ears of the crown prince and Concubine Liang, they sounded like thunder.

Concubine Liang pulled the prince to kneel down, her body trembling involuntarily, "I miss the emperor, and I am afraid that someone will have bad intentions against the emperor, so I risked my life to meet you."

The emperor smiled, and the smile was slowly raised from the corners of his mouth. The red spots on his face were almost dark red, and the fine lines at the corners of his eyes piled up, almost terrifying, "Good!"

The prince knelt before climbing up, but he didn't dare to get too close, crying and said: "Father, I miss you, how are you?"

"I'm dying!" The emperor sighed softly and closed his eyes.

The prince turned around and exchanged glances with Concubine Liang, both at a loss.

Father said that he is dying, does that mean he can ascend the throne?

The prince took another step forward and cried, "Father, if you have anything to say, I will listen here."

The emperor suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes could no longer hide the sharp anger, "I want you to entrust my last words so that the crown prince can ascend the throne, right?"

The prince was stunned, and quickly kowtowed, "I don't mean that, my father will be fine, my father is the son of the real dragon, a thousand years old... no, no, long live, long live, long live."

Hearing the prince's words, Zi'an sighed in his heart, he really didn't understand, the emperor was in his prime, why did he establish the prince's position so early? However, after thinking about it, it became clear that his so-called ghost face sores had always existed, but they were well concealed. The empress dowager should also know about this.

Only King Liang and Murongqiao were the only descendants of the empress. The eldest son was unable to stand due to hidden illness, so he could only build Murongqiao.

But such an idiot, if the Tai Tuo and the Empress hadn't kept him for these years, he might have died long ago.

It's just that the queen is also stupid. Since she was demoted to concubine, her IQ and EQ have dropped sharply. She shouldn't have accompanied the prince today. If the emperor really has winter melon tofu, the prince will naturally ascend the throne. She is anxious what? He must have seen her enter the palace with Murong Jie, and he was afraid that they would be plotting something.

She also heard the emperor's almost inaudible helpless sigh.

Murong Jie was sitting on the chair beside the bed, as indifferent as ever.

The emperor looked at the prince, "Come here!"

The prince stood up tremblingly, hesitated for a moment, walked over slowly, bowed his body, not daring to get too close, and stopped behind Zian, his face was panicked and dazed.

Zi'an stood up and backed away, allowing the father and son to talk.

"Do you know what disease I have?" asked the emperor.

The prince nodded, then shook his head violently, looking away in horror, not daring to look at the little man's face on his shoulder.

"I don't know?" The emperor sneered, "Aren't there rumors outside that I got ghost sores?"

The prince didn't dare to make a sound, he seemed very at a loss under the gaze of the emperor.

"Tell me, did I get ghost face sores?" the emperor asked.

The prince subconsciously shook his head, "No!"

"Then what's wrong with me?" the emperor asked again.

The prince faltered and said: "My son, my son doesn't know, maybe it's the wind and cold."

"When you make such a fuss in Xiwei Palace, all the officials must know that you have met Zhen. After you go out, how do you tell them? Say I have a cold?"

Concubine Liang leaned over and said, "The Emperor suffers from tuberculosis, and he is nearly cured."

The emperor looked at Concubine Liang with a strange smile on his face, "Okay, it's tuberculosis, you guys go out."

Concubine Liang and the crown prince hurriedly kowtowed as if they were granted amnesty.

This time, the door of the palace was closed, and Murong Jie ordered that no one should trespass, not even a fly could enter.

Zian was preparing for the operation, sealed the acupoints for anesthesia, and the surgical instrument was a thin willow-leaf knife, which was extremely sharp and shone coldly under the light.

In the palace, everything seemed to be at a standstill. Everyone was paying attention to the changes in Xiwei Palace. Concubine Yi and Concubine Mei controlled the "feeling of longing" that the concubines wanted to visit. The empress dowager knelt in front of the Buddha, unable to get up for a long time.

Concubine Liang and the crown prince left the palace while it was dark, and went straight to Taifu's residence.

In this world, there is no eternal enemy. In Taifu's mansion, the prince saw King Nanhuai and Concubine Gui.

It is unknown who will ascend the throne in the future, but no matter who it is, those high-ranking people must be removed. Once the emperor dies or abdicates, Murong Jie's regent position will have to be withdrawn, because the new emperor ascends the throne and has already grown up. Requires the Regent's Aid.

Since the goals are the same, why not cooperate? Murong Jie is the most powerful enemy, and only by working together can we get rid of it.

This time, the two parties merged, and members of the two parties in the DPRK and China all appeared in the Taifu's mansion. Here, they were almost half of the important ministers of Da Zhou.

The crown prince stood up and said with lingering fear, "That's right, I and the empress saw with my own eyes that my father had ghost-faced sores on his arms, and there were many red spots on his face, just like Emperor Ming back then, they were ghost-faced sores."

"I saw it too." Concubine Liang said in a deep voice.

The words of the two exploded in the crowd like a bomb.

The audience was silent.

After that, an urgent secret meeting began.

On the roof of Taifuzhong, there was a man in black lying quietly, the moonlight streaming down his handsome face, his face was full of sarcasm.

I don't know how brother Huang will feel when he sees this scene and hears their discussion?

These years of hard work are good things for the common people, but for some courtiers, they are too strict. When an official wants to make decisions for the people, it is better to go home and grow sweet potatoes. The little bitch Hu Huanxi is right. People are born for profit.

After hearing this, the Night King rose up into the air, and disappeared without a sound like the messenger of the night.

Even though the early court was rescheduled, a group of courtiers still flocked to the gate of the palace, demanding to enter the palace to have an audience with the emperor.

Murong Jie sent iron cavalry to garrison, but there was a turbulent public opinion, saying that rumors were rampant outside, and the emperor must come out to set the record straight.

The Eldest Princess Murong Zhuangzhuang also stepped forward to stop her, but a group of courtiers with ulterior motives are like a group of fanatical pyramid schemes, so why do they care about the princess' dignity? Taifu and King Nanhuai even mobilized troops to come, and they were about to rush into the palace.

Murong Zhuangzhuang didn't expect things to get out of control like this, even she couldn't stop him, so he could only step back step by step and ordered someone to notify Murong Jie.

Murong Jie sent Ni Rong out of the palace, and Ni Rong rode away on horseback.

The prince is still aggressive, forcing Zhuang Zhuang, "Princess, now the people hear that the father has a ghost face sore, and people are panicked. They only think that God punished the father for his injustice. If the father does not come forward to calm down, I am afraid that time will come and the people will die." If you change your mind, you will never be able to recover.”

Zhuang Zhuang scolded angrily: "Murongqiao, do you still know how to call your father? He is sick now, how can he come out to calm down? As for the rumors outside, you also know that they are rumors. As a prince, you don't want to worry about your father. , how to quell civil unrest, but cause trouble with a group of messy officials and thieves, I am afraid that you don't want the crown prince anymore."

The Taifu said coldly: "Princess, the harem does not interfere in politics. The princess obstructing the ministers today will definitely cause anger and resentment. We just want to verify this matter. If the emperor really has ghost face sores, it will be the disaster of my great Zhou. I will wait for the humerus." Minister, it is my responsibility to maintain the stability of Dazhou."

"Well said!" A majestic voice came, and everyone looked around, only to see a man coming with hundreds of cavalry.
