Shocked! The salty concubine was spoiled by the cold prince

Chapter 195 Killing Two Is Still Killing

"Father, are your hands really that clean? Didn't you kill your own brothers to ascend to the throne? Now you're criticizing me. It's really ridiculous."

Pei Yunqing raised an eyebrow and revealed the emperor's long-held secret.

"Besides, if I don't kill them, they will kill me. Father, since you have reached this position, you shouldn't be so naive. If you don't want us brothers to kill each other, you shouldn't give birth to so many sons, and you shouldn't kill your brothers to seize the throne. This is all your own fault."

Pei Yunqing didn't mind making his father angry a little more. After all, the reputation of patricide was not particularly good, and if possible, he didn't want to bear it.

The emperor didn't expect Pei Yunqing to say such a thing. He raised his finger and pointed at Pei Yunqing, extremely angry.

"You bastard, how dare you..."

Even if he really killed his brothers to become emperor, his son should not say it.

"Of course I am a bastard. I dare to admit it. Father, do you dare?"

Pei Yunqing curled his lips, walked closer to the emperor, bent down, and looked at him with burning eyes.

"Father, you know better than me why you have been wary of Pei Xu all these years. It's because you killed his father. You are afraid of him, afraid that he will know the truth and avenge his father."

The emperor's pupils constricted. He didn't expect that Pei Yunqing even knew such a thing.

He did this very secretly and almost no one knew about it.

Even if someone knew, they would not tell it out. After all, an emperor actually killed his own brother because of suspicion and jealousy. If it were to be spread out, the entire royal family would be disgraced.

"Don't talk nonsense. Pei Xu's father, my brother, died of an acute illness. What does that have to do with me?"

The emperor would never admit it. Once he did, he would be cursed for eternity.

Pei Yunqing is not someone who can be easily fooled, otherwise he wouldn't have gotten to where he is today.

"Father, there's no need to pretend in front of me. I know exactly how he died, and you know it too. If you obediently write the abdication edict, this matter will be buried deep in my heart forever. If you don't cooperate, I can't guarantee that this matter will reach anyone's ears."

Pei Yunqing's threat was a blatant one, but the emperor couldn't help but take it seriously.

"Old Five, what good will this do you?"

Pei Yunqing laughed when he heard this.

"Father, what good do you think this will do me? Of course it's because I want to be emperor. I can't wait any longer, and you still have so many years to live."

Pei Yunqing has endured it for so many years, and he doesn't want to endure it anymore.

What's more, he has another identity, and this identity will not become a threat to him only if he becomes the emperor.

But he would not tell his father about this.

No one would be so foolish as to hand over his or her secrets to others.

"Father, you've done a good job as an emperor, but not that great. I'm confident I can do better than you, and my methods are more sophisticated, aren't they? You only poison your brothers to death, but I'm different. I can make them die quietly. No one will blame me for the prince's death. Everyone thinks his death was a punishment from heaven, and I am the one who was destined by heaven."

Pei Yunqing had planned this step long ago and had been waiting for this day to come.

He knew that he could not kill Gu Jiaorong, so he made this decision when he returned to the capital.

Killing one brother is the same as killing, killing two is the same as killing, so it is better to kill them all, so that there will be no obstacles in his way.

Gu Jiaorong is just a woman. If he becomes the emperor, how can she shake him?

Pei Yunqing knew very well that nothing in this world was more reliable than power.

"You've been weak since childhood, and you've been recovering from illness for years. I don't know when you developed such ambition, and yet you've given me such a surprise. Lao Wu, I really underestimated you in the past."

The emperor sighed, his eyes filled with disappointment.

Although the prince was selfish and the third brother was dead, he did not want to hand over the throne to Pei Yunqing, nor did he want to save his life.

Since he could kill his brother, he could naturally kill his son as well.

Anyway, he still has an old eight.

Although Lao Ba is young, it is not a problem to train him from now on.

Besides, he didn't sit on the throne long enough.

"But you forgot, Lao Wu, this is the palace, it's my place. Even if you imprison me, what does it matter? If I refuse to let go, you still can't touch me."

The emperor's personal guards cannot be bribed; they are only loyal to the emperor.

He spent so much time with Pei Yunqing because he wanted to see what the prince was capable of, but the prince actually combusted in front of everyone.

"Father, I can't touch you? You can try it yourself. Do you really have anyone around you who can be used?"

Pei Yunqing has been planning this for so long, how could there be such an oversight?

At this time, the emperor had been deserted by his friends and relatives and was truly a lonely man.

"Pei Xu has returned. He will never allow you to kill your father and take the throne."

It is really ridiculous that the emperor could only pin his hopes on Pei Xu in the end.

Pei Yunqing didn't think Pei Xu would protect the murderer of his father. If it were him, he would only want to tear the emperor into pieces.

"Father, you can wait and see."

Pei Yunqing was not worried. Besides, even if Pei Xu came, what would happen? He was the prince and his title was legitimate.

"Come to think of it, Brother Xu and I haven't seen each other for a long time. After I returned to the capital, he gave me such a big gift, and I haven't returned it yet. Now that I have some free time, I should have a good chat with him."

He acted so well-behaved and sanctimonious that it made people feel sick.

The emperor closed his eyes and refused to look at him, feeling chest tightness and shortness of breath.

How could he be tricked to this extent by a teenager? !

I really can't accept this.

"Get out, get out!"

The emperor grabbed a cup and threw it at him.

Pei Yunqing didn't move, but the emperor still didn't hit him.

"Father, you are old."

Pei Yunqing smiled more and more proudly, and his light words were enough to make the emperor so angry that he vomited blood.

The emperor has always refused to admit his old age, and he can't stand hearing the word "old".

Pei Yunqing became even more proud when he saw his father like this.

"I won't disturb your rest, Father. Please think about it carefully. When you want to write the edict of abdication, I will come to see you again. During this time, I will first keep in touch with Brother Xu."

Pei Yunqing smiled like a fox and looked filial, but in fact, every word he said was meant to piss off his father to death.

"After all, if possible, I still hope that my throne will be legitimate, but I won't force you."
