Chapter 1548: Last Will

What is Emperor Jian Shi afraid of?

He is afraid that Prince Duan will not be able to treat Imperial Consort Xiao and her son well after inheriting the great unification, and will not be able to treat Imperial Consort Jing and her son well.

The former has been favored by him for twenty or thirty years, accompanying him from youth to the present. Although she is old, that feeling is still there. It's just not as romantic as before. He misses her, misses their children.

The latter is his new favorite, and the young son is his sustenance.

If it weren't for the deadline, if Heaven gave him another ten or twenty years, this throne... he would definitely clear all obstacles for his young son.

Alas!

Alas!

For the Empress, he has no love! Of course, there will be no hatred.

Just no feeling!

Since giving birth to Prince Duan, he hasn't been willing to go to the Empress's bed. The Empress is not the type he likes, just forced by the late Emperor's marriage, forced by the need for power.

Not loving is not loving, no feeling is no feeling, any hard work and payment, he sees it and won't be moved at all.

He let Imperial Consort Xiao give birth to the eldest son, not only because of his favor for Imperial Consort Xiao. That year it was to slap the Empress in the face! It was an insult to the Empress!

Married you, I can still disobey in secret, violate the late Emperor's wishes, and slap the face hard.

In the huge East Palace, there are so many people serving, there are ways to make women avoid pregnancy.

He doesn't speak, Imperial Consort Xiao can't give birth to the eldest son.

He nodded, and Imperial Consort Xiao had the opportunity to give birth to the eldest son.

He doesn't like the Empress, naturally he is not willing to let the Empress's son inherit the great unification. However, he occupies the word legitimate!

Hehe!

If I had known this earlier, if I had known this earlier...

Abolish the Empress!

This thought had been thought of when he ascended the throne. It's just that he never took action.

The ministers in the court value rules and order, and follow the ancestral system.

Under the circumstances that the Empress did not make a big mistake, he had no way to abolish the Empress. No one supported him!

He is not the late Emperor, the imperial power in his hands cannot suppress the prime minister's power. All he can do is delay the time to establish the Crown Prince.

As long as he dares to propose abolishing the Empress, the ministers in the court will riot, will force the palace, will...

Xie Changling would not agree with his claim to abolish the Empress either.

Later, Prince Duan married the eldest granddaughter of Marquis Pingjiang, and the idea of abolishing the Empress could only be aborted.

Marquis Pingjiang absolutely would not allow his granddaughter's husband to be a former legitimate prince who was abolished.

The situation has been deadlocked like this.

He is not in a hurry, he thinks he has plenty of time. Dare not say thirty years, twenty years can think about it.

Who could have thought, in just two or three years, he is going to die!

He is actually going to die!

Haha...

Emperor Jian Shi was furious inside!

Hating Heaven, hating Earth, hating the court ministers, hating everyone!

He is not reconciled!

He stared at Xie Changling, didn't make a sound, but showed everything.

Xie Changling said solemnly: "Prince Duan is weak in character, but he is kind. With a little guidance, plus Marquis Pingjiang's mansion watching, he won't let him mess around. Even if Your Majesty doesn't believe this official, doesn't believe the Empress, you should believe the Chen family. Marquis Pingjiang won't let him mess around! And won't allow him to kill indiscriminately!"

"How can you guarantee?" Emperor Jian Shi gritted his teeth.

"If Your Majesty is not at ease, you can leave a last will to protect Imperial Consort Gui and her son, and Imperial Consort Jing and her son."

Xie Changling saw through the Emperor's thoughts, after all, he was mediocre, and until he died, he was thinking about women and children, not the country and society. People... children's love, if it were an ordinary person, it would be fine. Unfortunately, he is an emperor, and he is a bit short after all.

Emperor Jian Shi panted like a cow, he was very tired.

He thought of many things: "Establish the edict! After I pass away, Prince Duan will inherit the great unification. Establish another edict, order Xie Changling, Xu... four people to assist in the government..."

Emperor Jian Shi issued seven or eight last wills in one breath.

There were edicts for Imperial Consort Jing and her son, edicts for Imperial Consort Gui and her son, and edicts for Marquis Pingjiang.

He was tired.

Finally, he issued an order: "Go and invite Chen Guanfu."

The ministers achieved their goal, had the last will, all relaxed, and very decisively agreed to the Emperor's request. They retreated one after another, busy with official business.

Medical Official Mu was invited into the bedroom again to diagnose and nurse.

Emperor Jian Shi eased up, his spirit recovered a little, and ordered Wang Defa: "Has Xiao Jincheng come?"

"Your Majesty, Minister Xiao is waiting outside."

"Call him in!"

Wang Defa hurriedly ordered the little yellow gate to invite Xiao Jincheng.

Medical Official Mu consciously retreated, but was called by the Emperor first.

"Doctor Mu, I heard you entered the palace with Chen Guanlou?"

"Dare not deceive Your Majesty, this humble official did indeed enter the palace with Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen." Medical Official Mu didn't know where the courage came from, and dared to ask: "Does Your Majesty also know Jiang Jiang Yucheng Chen?"

Emperor Jian Shi laughed, just laughed very tiredly.

Medical Official Mu was confused, didn't understand, and couldn't figure it out.

Emperor Jian Shi was too lazy to speak, waved his hand to signal him to retreat.

Medical Official Mu left the bedroom with full questions and returned to the ear room.

"His Majesty asked you to see him later." He was very confused, hadn't come back to his senses, and mechanically conveyed the Emperor's meaning.

Chen Guanlou was even more confused: "You didn't hear wrong? Why does the Emperor want to see me."

"Don't know. The Emperor first summoned Embroidered Uniform Guard Minister Xiao, then asked about you, and then let this old man convey, let you go over later."

Chen Guanlou felt very suspicious.

Medical Official Mu was very curious: "Have you met His Majesty?"

"Met. When the Grand Tutor was in prison, he came to the Heavenly Prison."

"Not that time, have you met since the Emperor ascended the throne?"

Chen Guanlou nodded and admitted: "Met once or twice, that was not long after the Emperor ascended the throne. I helped handle a little private matter."

"Then do you know why the Emperor wants to see you?"

"Don't know. I am also full of questions now. Do you see any situation?"

Medical Official Mu shook his head.

The two were full of questions, but couldn't get answers. They exchanged a look, then laughed together.

Right now, they were trapped in the palace.

Chen Guanlou wanted to leave at any time, but Medical Official Mu couldn't.

Chen Guanlou couldn't leave Medical Official Mu alone.

Just endure it!

Stayed up all night, spent some money, and bought breakfast from the eunuch. The other party promised that lunch would be delivered on time.

"Really black! This group of dead eunuchs, dying for money!"

Chen Guanlou complained while urging Medical Official Mu to eat.

They were busy eating, Xiao Jincheng was kneeling in front of the Emperor's bed, respectful and humble, worthy of being the Emperor's eagle dog, loyal.

"I don't have much time..."

"Your Majesty!"

"Listen to me finish. From today on, keep a close eye on the major mansions in the capital for me, if there is any movement, I allow you to execute first and report later. This is the edict I give you, take it! If the new Emperor succeeds to the throne and wants to replace you, leave the capital and find a place to retire. If someone wants to question you, take out this edict to save your life!"

Xiao Jincheng was so excited that his eyes were red.

Men don't shed tears easily.

He didn't shed tears, only moved by the kindness of knowing him.

"Your Majesty, I..."

"Don't say anything, just listen honestly. You have offended many people over the years. After I die, someone will definitely target you and settle accounts after autumn. Remember, retreat when you are in trouble, don't resist hard. Also... arrange for reliable people to watch the court. If someone is unfavorable to Imperial Consort Gui and her son, and unfavorable to Imperial Consort Jing and her son, kill them for me!"

Xiao Jincheng was shocked, unable to believe it! ===== CHAPTER 1549 =====
