Chapter 483 Who is suitable for this talisman?
Outside the tent with a yellow halo, there stood circles of guards.
The firewood in the brazier made a "Bibb" sound from time to time, making the dark night even more solemn.
The soldiers patrolling back and forth didn't even dare to make loud footsteps, for fear of angering the people in the tent.
Emperor Kangxi sat in an armchair, holding a cup of cold tea in his hand, but he did not touch his lips for a long time.
He leaned back without moving, and the imperial physician beside him was changing his dressing.
The wound was on his waist, which made his already uncomfortable waist even worse.
Now no matter whether he is standing, sitting, lying down or lying on his stomach, no movement is comfortable.
More importantly, he stared at the small figure behind the bed curtains.
He asked with difficulty: "Eighteen...how is it?"
"For the time being... he is not out of danger yet..." Sweat was running down the face of the imperial physician.
Emperor Kangxi just sat there stiffly, playing with the teacup in his hand, without saying a word for a long time.
What can be said?
If you can't cure Xiao Shiba, will I chop off your heads and bury them with him?
But he was buried with her, and Xiao Shiba could never come back.
People don't grow old all at once, but rather grow old little by little.
I started to feel dizzy and have neck pain frequently, and I couldn’t stay up late as often as I did when I was young.
Later, the pain spread to my waist, and I couldn't sit for long periods of time, and standing was even more painful.
No matter how many supplements or medicines he took, his body continued to deteriorate bit by bit.
There was no conspiracy, no poison, but it was time.
Life is the only fair thing in this world, and everyone has only one chance.
Even an emperor like him, the supreme ruler, has only one life.
So, at first he was very resigned to his fate.
But he met Li Da Ying, who was obviously a brainless fool, but was luckier than him, the emperor.
She has a second life, and she doesn't need to cross the Wangchuan River to drink Mengpo soup, she can get a healthy second life just like that.
And this opportunity lies in Xiao Shiba.
Xiao Shiba...his life or death is uncertain.
"Where is that beast?" Emperor Kangxi's tone became sharp.
Liang Jiugong almost buried his head in his stomach: "In...kneeling in the tent."
The prince was forced to kneel on the ground and was told over and over again, "I am a sinner."
Thirteen's hand was shaking as he held down the prince, but he had to suppress it fiercely.
His eyes were red and he was breathing heavily through his nose.
The prince's legs refused to kneel down and he struggled to stand up again and again.
He didn't say a word of confession, but only roared: "I am not wrong! You are accusing me of something..."
Thirteen shuddered again. He really didn't want to hear these secrets!
No one knows whether it is a false accusation or not.
At that time, there were only the prince and the emperor in the tent. In the end, the emperor shouted for protection and his body was covered in blood.
When everyone rushed in, the prince was captured on the spot with a sword covered in snow in his hand.
Soon after, sophisticated weapons were found in the prince's followers and they were all captured.
Is it a rebellion to regicide?
It does look like it.
But if the rebellion is so casual, then this second prince is too stupid, right?
Everyone can see that something is wrong, but everyone is pretending to be deaf and dumb.
As long as the prince pleads guilty, the matter will be over.
The prince also knew this.
"Your Majesty! You have such a cruel heart!" His voice sounded like it was mixed with poison, making people feel uneasy when they heard it.
He didn't do any of these things.
Even when Xiao Muzi asked him to secretly attack the emperor, he did not agree at all out of consideration for the father-son relationship!
And his royal father actually framed him personally, making him bear the crime of patricide and regicide.
The prince struggled for a while, then suddenly stopped moving. He looked up at Thirteen and said, "Go tell the Emperor that I still have the one he wants."
The things that Li promised to leave for him finally came in handy.
He was not a fool, so he naturally found out that the emperor treated little Eighteen differently because Li agreed to that outrageous statement.
And the reason for killing Xiao Shiba was the same.
If the emperor can always maintain a healthy body, then what role can he play as the crown prince?
Fortunately, Xiao Shiba was not going to survive, so the last talisman in his hand became his life-saving talisman.
Thirteen's heart was already trembling, he really didn't want to get involved in these things.
But the emperor forced him to confront the prince again and again.
But what can he do?
He is just a prince of humble status and without any foundation!
Thirteen resigned himself to his fate and went to the emperor's tent to report the prince's ambiguous words, not daring to say a single wrong word.
Don’t let me know anymore, I don’t want to know!
He wanted to plug his ears with cotton. He didn't want to know these secrets anymore!
Fortunately, the emperor did not ask him to stay by his side this time, but instead asked someone to bring the prince over.
There was no one outside the imperial tent. Inside were only Emperor Kangxi, Liang Jiugong, and the crown prince who was tied up and kneeling on the ground.
"Father Emperor, do you really care?!" The prince cried bitterly.
He never thought that the emperor father who favored him in every way would treat him like this.
Once a person sees the hope of eternal life, do children become a burden?
Emperor Kangxi snorted coldly: "You heartless beast, am I not good enough to you?"
In his eyes, the prince at this moment was neither a son nor an heir, but an enemy who wanted to seize his throne.
"Hahaha~~~Good, good, good," the prince said, looking like a madman, "Good enough to let my son bear the infamy of patricide and regicide!"
"Stop talking nonsense!" Emperor Kangxi's patience was limited. "Hand over the things."
It was obvious that Xiao Shiba was not going to survive, and the method that Li had promised him was useless.
But as long as there is a glimmer of hope, he will give it a try.
He was really fed up with this broken body.
"I can leave it to you," the prince said, his voice calming down. "But you have to give me a guarantee for the lives of my son and his family, right?"
If his crime of rebellion is proven, then everyone in the Eastern Palace will be buried with him.
Even ants try to survive, let alone so many people?
Emperor Kangxi thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry, I'm not you. I'm not that cold-blooded."
The prince smiled.
Cold-blooded?
Is he really the cold-blooded person?
Emperor Kangxi took the talisman and watched his once beloved son being dragged away like a dead dog.
His voice was icy cold: "Crown Prince Yinreng is disloyal, unfilial, and unbrotherly, and is unfit to be the Crown Prince. He is hereby deposed and imprisoned in Xian'an Palace, where he is forbidden to leave for life."
Of course he could save his life, but he had ruined his plan for generations to come, so of course he could no longer be his crown prince.
Emperor Kangxi looked at the talisman paper in his hand with a gloomy look in his eyes.
So, who is suitable for this talisman?
