Chapter 67 The Emperor’s Beloved Concubine
Yu Yijian ascended the throne when he was twelve years old.
His father was incompetent and dissolute. He gave him and his mother a lot of suffering when he was alive, and left him a mess after his death. At that time, Dasheng's treasury was empty, people's livelihood was in decline, the weak could be bullied, and enemy countries were eyeing him.
When Yu Yijian was still the prince, he couldn't stand his father's many useless behaviors. He once swore that if he became emperor in the future, he would step on thorns and kill the powerful enemies.
In fact, he did it before he became emperor.
Other countries were watching the young king of Dasheng ascend the throne with eager eyes, and when they wanted to take advantage of it, he had already gone deep into the enemy country on the day of his father's funeral to assassinate the enemy king who was watching the show on the border.
Accompanying him was Shi Pingshan. He was twelve years old that year, and Shi Pingshan had just reached the age of weak.
Together, they fought a bloody path for Dasheng and supported the crumbling and weak country to thrive, using the bones of countless warriors.
Dasheng has become the most powerful country. He is no longer the aggrieved prince, and his people will no longer be bullied at will. But his dream is more than that, he wants to unify the world.
Originally, he could do it. Dasheng had become the richest country with the strongest military force. He also had generals who were brave and skilled in fighting and swore loyalty to the death. However, his body was destroyed on the battlefield.
This is the only regret he has in his life. Even if he pretends to be calm on the outside, he knows how regretful and unwilling he is in his heart, but not only can he no longer go to the battlefield, but he also has limited time.
I really realized this not when I was in so much pain that I couldn't sleep late at night, but when I saw the death of my master who had returned to the capital, Shi Pingshan's youngest son.
He only heard the news that his master had captured the prince of the enemy country alive. He thought of the young man's high-spirited face, and suddenly seemed to see himself in his youth.
But he immediately heard the unpredictable news about his life and death, and when he saw him again, he was already sick and to pieces, and his expression was gloomy.
Yu Yijian suddenly gave birth, and for the first time, he felt like he was going to die, even if he pretended to be fine.
He was unable to unify the world and would die at an early age due to illnesses caused by years of war. The most helpless and tragic thing was that he did not have a son who could inherit his legacy.
All of Shi Pingshan's sons are outstanding generals, but none of his three sons who are suitable to inherit the throne have no imperial status. The prince has no courage, the second prince is arrogant and brainless, and the third prince is narrow-minded and closed-minded.
If he could not fulfill his legacy of expanding the territory and unifying the world, he must at least defend the country he had conquered for more than ten years. In his will, he chose the prince. The prince did not have the courage to conquer the world, but he was gentle and conservative enough to defend the country.
But unexpectedly, when he was about to die, his will was tampered with by the third prince.
The third prince was the one he could least accept to ascend the throne. He had carefully observed him. He was courageous, ruthless and smart, but he was narrow-minded and had no tolerance for others. In other countries, it would be OK. Dasheng, who controls the country in the general's mansion, is a huge hidden danger.
He has been successful all his life, but he did not expect that he would be negligent in his later years and make such an oversight.
He would not close his eyes until he saw what would happen to Dasheng in the future, and he would never be willing to reincarnate.
It was just as he expected, and it exceeded his expectations.
He saw that Dasheng's future pillar of the army, his most promising teacher Wushuang, was shot to death by thousands of arrows in the harem, and his body was dragged all the way from the palace to the general's mansion.
He saw Shi Pingshan, who had accompanied him on the battlefield for more than ten years and saved him from danger many times, knelt down and handed over his military power, and was hacked to death on the way to guard the border.
He saw that Shi Yanming, the smartest and unyielding Shi, rebelled after learning everything. He and Shi Pingshan carefully trained the soldiers who were supposed to enter the enemy's territory, and killed each other on the land of Dasheng, with blood flowing. into a river.
He saw that the young general whom he felt most sorry for when he saw his figure was imprisoned in the harem and tortured in every possible way, and finally broke his own neck.
He saw that his country was trampled by enemy armies, the land was broken, and the people were in dire straits.
Yu Yijian was so filled with hatred that he wished he could crawl out of the underworld and tear that scoundrel to pieces!
Wrapped in hatred and guilt, he was trapped in the underworld of Fengdu, unable to be reincarnated. Later, he finally got an opportunity and invited the host of Fengdu's best relative system.
Because of his status as the emperor, this world is not difficult in the best relatives department. It was originally supposed to be a new host, but Bo Yunyi, who was going to pick up the soul of the new host, was manipulated in secret, and Bo Yunyi was replaced to do the task for him.
Su Qingyu was silent for a while after knowing the story of Yu Yijian, the emperor.
527 told him that according to the classification of emotions in the entrusted ghost obsession, the Fengdu system has different departments. The system department he and 527 belong to targets scumbags in love, and there must be family and friendship. Su Qingyu did not expect that. The emperor was trapped in the underworld of Fengdu due to obsession, and had a family system and a host.
Su Qingyu asked 527: [If there are two related people in a world who both invite the system because of their obsessions, do they come to this world to do tasks together? 】
527: [Yes, this way you only need to restart the world once. The more hosts the better. 】
Su Qingyu: [……]
If both Shi Wushuang and Shi Yanming were obsessed with hatred and both had systems and hosts, how miserable would Yu Jing'an be.
Without them, if "Master Guxi" and "The Emperor" join forces, he will not end well.
No wonder Bo Yunyi had worn the body of such an important person as the emperor. In the first two worlds, he had worn less relevant characters. He thought it was because the emperor was about to die and it would be easier for him to escape.
This can also explain why Bo Yunyi did this. He was doing Yu Yijian's task for the new host.
Thinking of the emperor's cold face and anger when he first entered this world and seduced him, Su Qingyu couldn't help but laugh again.
527 Question: [Host, what’s wrong? Why do you suddenly ask this? 】
Su Qingyu didn't know yet whether Bo Yunyi's behind-the-scenes operation was serious or whether he would be punished, so he didn't tell 527 for the time being. He only said: "It's okay. I'm suddenly curious. I'm thinking about what to do when I meet my colleagues in the future." 】
527: [It’s okay, generally they don’t affect each other, unless there is a conflict in tasks and the other party is aware of it, there will be danger. The hosts don't know each other's identities. If they can recognize each other and have overlapping tasks, they can also cooperate with each other to complete tasks together. 】
Su Qingyu said "Hmm" and looked at the emperor.
At first, he thought that Bo Yunyi had penetrated the emperor. In order not to attract the attention of the Fengdu system, he wanted to maintain the emperor's personality and not do anything too OOC without any chance, so he did not want the emperor to directly target the third prince without any reason.
Since the emperor is also a commissioned ghost and has a host to fulfill his wish, then they can definitely join forces and use the emperor's identity openly, so Yu Jing'an is naturally not worth mentioning.
"The emperor works hard in the imperial study every day correcting memorials. Is he doing his job seriously?"
"My beloved, do you think I'm just pretending?"
"..." Su Qingyu adjusted to the new title and smiled in a good mood. It seems that the emperor has done a lot of things. He doesn't have to worry about what Yu Jingan will do when he jumps over the wall. He can just harvest his repentance points.
In other words, you can let go and hurry up to complete the tasks in this world.
The emperor wrapped his clothes and said, "Don't worry, my beloved, I will protect the general's palace."
527 was shocked, [Host, your method is really awesome. The emperor married you and took the initiative to help you protect the general's mansion. 】
Su Qingyu: [……]
527 knew that the host was determined to save the lives of the people in the General's Mansion. Even if they met the conditions, he would have to take great risks if he wanted to save their lives.
The Fengdu system does not bear losses, which means that the merit he brings from saving several lives must be worth the cost of restarting the world's life and death. This cost calculation is very complicated and takes a long time. The host must sign an agreement with the system. , if the merit cannot offset the cost, it will be borne by the host.
527 has never wanted the host to take risks, because he may be in debt for decades and have to work for the Fengdu underworld all the time. He will continue to live in the next life after his death.
Su Qingyu also knew that 527 had told him many times.
Just because he knew this and what Bo Yunyi said, he was speechless for a moment.
He was wondering if this was also the reason why Bo Yunyi wanted to do this task for the host.
Bo Yunyi wrote the word "many" on his palm, telling him that even if their decision was wrong, he still had a lot of merit to offset it.
Su Qingyu smiled, got close to him and wrote a sentence on his collarbone, "I have nothing to offer in return, but I pledge myself to you."
Bo Yunyi suddenly grabbed his hand, looked at him for a long time, and said, "Stop talking nonsense, go to sleep."
Okay, Su Qingyu listened to him. Since he didn't want to bear someone else's identity, Su Qingyu just had a good sleep. The Fengdu system allowed two hosts to cooperate, but it didn't allow the two hosts to get together.
It was the first time the two of them lay in bed, so pure. One person lies on the other side sleeping with a pillow on his head.
Su Qingyu turned sideways and looked at his side face, thinking about what he and 527 had just said. If the host penetrated the emperor, their tasks would overlap at first glance, and they were both targeting Yu Jing'an. In fact, there would be contradictions in their execution.
The two hosts did not know each other's existence. The host who passed through the emperor would naturally use the emperor's identity to deal with Yu Jing'an. Of course, he could not kill Yu Jing'an, but he could torture Yu Jing'an in prison or exile him.
Then his task will be difficult to complete.
Is this also the reason why Bo Yunyi wants to steal the host task?
If in the first two worlds, Bo Yunyi was able to hide from the Fengdu system by passing through a person with a distant relationship, this time he directly replaced the host to complete the task for the host, so he probably couldn't hide it.
Now he might be caught by the Bull-headed Horse-faced family.
Su Qingyu's fingers slipped into his palm little by little, and he held it with his backhand. Su Qingyu stared at the clasped hands for a while, then laughed.
The two simply held hands and fell asleep. Of course, it didn't take long for Su Qingyu to turn over and hug him. The emperor put his arms around him and raised the corners of his mouth silently.
527: [……]
For some reason, it saw the shadow of Xi Qinghe in the emperor.
Su Qingyu woke up late as usual, but the emperor had to attend the morning court.
The steward and the maids were waiting outside and saw that the fourth princes were all up.
He squatted in front of the fourth prince, helped him arrange the prince's uniform, and sighed: "The fourth prince is so lucky."
The fourth prince didn't seem to understand what he said and just smiled shyly.
The emperor did not call anyone, but walked to the door and waved to them. The steward immediately understood what he meant. He did not want to disturb the junior master inside...His Royal Highness, but he was worried that the fourth prince would not know and called the emperor. Noisy to the imperial concubine.
Unexpectedly, the fourth prince just bowed silently to the emperor. The father and son washed themselves quietly, and then one went to the morning court and the other to the prince's school.
The fourth prince could clearly feel that he, who had no sense of presence in the school before, was stared at by the four princes as soon as he entered the door.
He lowered his head and carefully walked to his seat without saying a word as before.
The second prince sat next to him and asked: "Fourth Emperor brother, master...isn't your mother and concubine..."
The Fourth Prince grabbed his sleeves and looked at him nervously, "Second Emperor Brother, you used to call me Xiaosi directly. Why did you call me Fourth Emperor Brother today? But what did I do wrong?"
A friendly smile appeared on the second prince's face, "Of course not. It doesn't matter if you call Xiaosi more friendly or the emperor's younger brother more formal."
He wanted to ask about the emperor and his master's death. The fact that his master had become a noble concubine shocked both the government and the harem, but no one dared to ask the emperor. There was no real news from the General's Mansion, and they were all worried. Lung, at this time the fourth prince became the best target to get information.
However, the second prince didn't know how to ask. He hesitated for a while and asked less obviously: "Did the father and the noble concubine have a good rest last night?"
Several other princes looked here, including the third prince Yu Jing'an who was sitting next to him.
The fourth prince did not speak, but his face turned red a little bit. He covered his face and whispered: "I, I can't tell, I, I don't know."
"..."
The whole school suddenly fell silent.
The second prince coughed, sat back in his seat, and said to the prince: "Brother, it seems that my father is in good health."
The prince scolded: "Shut up! How can we discuss this kind of thing?"
The third prince sat in his seat with his head hanging, his hands under the table tightly clenched together, and he didn't realize that his nails had sunk into the flesh of his palms.
He knew that the emperor had seen his master pass away, and he also knew that the emperor wanted his master to enter the palace and become a concubine, but he did not expect it to be a noble concubine.
The four concubines of the First Empress of Dasheng had extremely high status, and the four concubines were regarded as noble concubines, and the noble concubines were called deputy empresses. All princes, except the prince, must call the queen "mother" when meeting the queen. When meeting the concubine, all princes, except the prince, must call the queen "mother". This is something that other concubines do not have, which shows their nobility.
It can be seen that the emperor's love for his teacher Guxi.
This is something he may not be able to give even if he becomes the emperor.
He had made so much mental preparation, but half of it collapsed on the day when his master died and he became a noble concubine. The fourth prince blushed and half collapsed again.
He couldn't help but think about why the fourth prince was blushing, what happened last night, last night they...
The third prince slammed his thigh and bit his lip to stop the pain. He couldn't think about it, but the more he suppressed it, the more he couldn't help thinking about it. The fire of anger and jealousy in his chest grew stronger and stronger, making him extremely painful and burning. His sanity was gone.
Only then did he realize that he couldn't accept it, he really couldn't accept it, and he would soon be unable to bear it any longer.
His whole arm trembled due to the force of his grip.
The second prince smiled and said: "Brother, why are you so serious? It's a good thing that my father is alive and well. You said last night..."
"Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!"
Several princes looked at the sudden outburst of the third prince in shock. His eyes were red, his lips were trembling, and he looked particularly terrifying.
The second prince swallowed, "Yu Jingan, what are you crazy about!"
The fourth prince nervously tugged on the sleeve of the third prince, "Brother, don't be angry. I said, I said, my father treated his mother and concubine very well. He would pick up vegetables for her, peel shrimps for her, and even hug her." Concubine, go to bed."
"Shut up! Shut up, didn't you hear me!" Not only did the third prince not feel better, he became even angrier and waved the fourth prince away.
The short fourth prince hit his head on the table when he fell, and tears fell down immediately. However, he suppressed his tears and did not dare to cry. He just kept crying.
When Su Qingyu woke up, he first heard 527 tell him that the repentance value had increased by 5 points and that they had passed the passing mark. Then he heard the headmaster of Bixiao Palace nervously tell him that the fourth prince was injured in the school.
Su Qingyu: "..."
He also didn't expect that the first thing he would do after becoming a noble concubine would be to be called to school as a parent.
When Su Qingyu arrived, the imperial doctor had already arrived.
The ladies and gentlemen in the school knelt on the ground, all tense.
They had obviously realized the emperor's love for the imperial concubine, and how much more valuable the fourth prince was now, with the entire general's palace as his maternal clan's backing.
The second prince took the lead and saluted him, "Mother and concubine."
Seeing that the third prince was hesitant to move, the second prince pulled him and said, "Why don't you admit your mistake to your mother and concubine!"
Yu Jing'an stared at the ground and shouted hoarsely, "Mother concubine."
527: [...repentance value +1. 】
Su Qingyu: [……]
527: [Host, where do you think the repentance value comes from? 】
Su Qingyu: [Teacher, please rest. 】
527: [……]
"Mother concubine." The fourth prince grabbed his robe, called him tremblingly, and buried his head on him.
His head was slightly bruised, and the royal doctor had already treated it, and tied a piece of white cotton gauze around his head.
Su Qingyu knelt down and asked him: "Who pushed you?"
The fourth prince nervously pointed at the third prince, "Brother Three Emperors must not have done it on purpose. It was because I didn't answer the question properly. He was angry and pushed me accidentally. I don't blame Brother Three Emperors."
Su Qingyu: "..."
"Third Prince, please come out." Su Qingyu said to the frightened gentleman: "Don't disturb your lecture. Sir, please continue."
He came out with the third prince and the fourth prince, [One is my ex-boyfriend and the other is my son. I am also very embarrassed. 】
527: [……]
Believe it or not.
Where others could not see it, he did have a troubled expression on his face, "What are you... Hey, Fourth Prince, what question did you fail to answer properly?"
The fourth prince wiped the corners of his red eyes, "The second prince asked my father and mother how they were doing last night."
Su Qingyu glanced at the third prince in surprise, with a slight blush on his face, "The third prince wants to know this."
Yu Jingan: "..."
He looked at his blushing face, and the anger that had just subsided surged up again.
Su Qingyu said without hesitation: "As we all know, it was the emperor who forced me in the first place. In fact, it happens every time. The emperor prefers to use force... no, he likes to be stronger. I beg him every time."
The veins on Yu Jing'an's forehead stood up. He finally calmed down, but he was easily ignited by him, burning up his sanity.
The words "Shut up" were already on his lips. When he looked up and saw the person standing next to him, his pupils trembled, his body moved before his brain, and he kneeled down subconsciously.
Su Qingyu: "..."
He slowly turned around and saw the emperor who was smiling but not smiling.
Su Qingyu: "..."
Su Qingyu asked her system, "Why don't you remind me?" 】
527 spread his hands, [Host, you can't blame me, who made you so arrogant? Standing under the tree near the door and saying this to the third prince, you said it when I saw the emperor. 】
Su Qingyu: [……]
The emperor asked: "What is my concubine talking to the third prince?"
Su Qingyu: "Tell me about the fourth prince's injury."
The emperor said "yes", nodded and walked towards the school.
Su Qingyu hurriedly followed, "Why is the Emperor here?"
The emperor said: "I came here as soon as I heard that the fourth prince was injured in the morning."
Su Qingyu, who had just spread rumors about the emperor, said movedly: "The emperor is so kind."
The emperor raised his thin eyelids and looked at him, "I forced my beloved concubine? Is it known to all?"
Su Qingyu: "..."
Su Qingyu said blankly: "I don't know what the emperor is talking about."
The emperor stopped and his eyes fell deeply on his face, "I like to be stronger, and my beloved concubine begs me every time?"
It was when the sun was at its brightest in the morning, and bright and dazzling light fell on him. Half of his face faced the sunlight, but he didn't squint his eyes. It fell directly on his face like a strong light, but it was deeper than the light.
He couldn't explain why, but at this moment, Su Qingyu's face felt a little hot for the first time in his life.
The emperor did not look away and looked at him for dozens of seconds before turning and walking towards the school.
Everyone knelt on the ground again in the school, this time even the prince knelt down.
The prince told the emperor everything that had happened in detail. The second prince, who had been so excited just now, was too nervous to raise his head.
The Emperor: "Are you so concerned about me and your concubine?"
The Second Prince: "My son, I don't dare!"
The emperor said nothing and looked at them indifferently, which made several princes tremble.
The emperor asked the third prince again, his voice still cold, "Why is Jing'an so angry?"
Yu Jing'an knocked his head on the ground, "My son is troubled by the injury on his arm. He has been unable to hold a pen and write. He was inevitably a little anxious, so he contradicted the second emperor brother with words."
The Emperor: "Are you resenting Muchuan?"
The third prince: "My son, I don't dare!"
The emperor didn't say anything. Several princes kept kneeling, and others followed suit. Even Su Qingyu could sense the horror of the atmosphere in the school.
Su Qingyu looked at his cold and pale profile, feeling that His Majesty the Emperor was somehow unhappy?
It wasn't until the fifth prince began to tremble that the emperor let them get up.
In the end, the emperor only punished the second prince and the third prince. One was shut up for half a month, and the other was for a month.
The punishment was not very severe, but the deterrent was very severe. The princes were afraid that they would never dare to say a word about the imperial concubine again, and no one would dare to touch the fourth prince.
The emperor and the concubine brought the Green Tea Prince back to the palace together, and the concubine had to find a way to coax the emperor.
Along the way, Su Qingyu had already figured out why the emperor was unhappy. He wrote a letter to the emperor and asked Manager Wang to hand it to the emperor.
The emperor didn't read it at first, but when the steward saw it, he said, "Your Majesty, Your Highness the Concubine said this was a love letter he wrote specifically to you."
The emperor stubbornly did not raise his head, and only opened the two memorials after approving them.
There are no love words in the love letter, only a date place, a place that the emperor has never been to.
It read: "The Emperor must come alone and quietly wait for the surprise I have prepared for the Emperor."
The emperor went anyway in the evening, long in advance and specially changed his clothes.
It was a quiet garden, with all the layers of trees turning yellow in late autumn. The emperor waited for half an hour, heard the sound of feet stepping on dead leaves, and looked up out of the window.
I saw the specially dressed Third Prince.
"..."
