(twenty)
The chirping of cicadas makes it difficult to sleep peacefully.
Seeing His Majesty's body collapse day by day, she was getting closer and closer to the position she wanted to reach, but the expectation and excitement in her heart were slightly overshadowed by worry and irritation.
She was not as powerful and ruthless as she imagined.
How could it be possible that after more than ten years of getting along, there was no trace of nostalgia left behind.
She is still young, less than twenty-five years old, and still has too much time to realize her ambitions.
His Majesty……
Can your Majesty live longer?
Deng Sui didn't expect that she would have such weak expectations.
Obviously, she has always been decisive and cold-hearted.
Calculating all the way, scheming all the way, climbing all the way, but still inevitably soft-hearted.
If you think about it carefully, this soft-heartedness seems to have always existed.
She once felt pity for Liu Sheng, but now she is full of reluctance for Liu Zhao.
Deng Sui sighed and stood in front of the window, looking in a trance at the palace servants holding net bags and carefully flapping cicadas in the courtyard.
I wonder if Your Majesty will have the opportunity to see next year's summer flowers and hear the cicadas chirping and birds chirping.
…
next day
In the court hall, Liu Zhao ordered people to read out the edict naming Liu Sheng as the prince.
Qinghe King Liu Qing:!?(_;?
Is Deng Sui in the palace just a decoration?
Obviously, he and Deng Sui had reached a consensus.
Liu Qing suddenly couldn't sit still. He was avenging his mother by helping His Majesty take charge of the government and eradicate Empress Dowager Dou's party.
But he doesn't just want to avenge his mother.
Back then, if it hadn't been for Dou's frame-up and slander, he would have remained firmly seated as the crown prince and become the emperor of the Han Dynasty.
Instead of being like now, always looking up to others, groveling and working hard to gain Liu Zhao's trust, so that his life in Luoyang would be easier.
It should have been him who was looked up to, flattered, and held high.
After many years, he has no chance to put things right and regain his high position, but his son can put everything back on track.
Obviously, he and Deng Sui had agreed.
After the morning court, Liu Zhao returned to Zhangde Hall with King Qinghe, who had been cursing Deng Sui for his heartlessness.
In Zhangde Hall, Deng Sui and Liu Sheng sat on either side of the long table, flipping through the memorials on the desk, exchanging words from time to time, and then reviewing them with ink pen.
After reviewing, sort them into categories.
King Qinghe had big questions on his face. Who can tell him when the relationship between mother and son became so close?
He felt like a fool who was kept in the dark and knew nothing.
It was obviously Liu Sheng's first visit to the court, and he also asked Deng Sui through the informant installed in the palace. Deng Sui said that everything was under control.
In fact, it must be that he, this idiot, has always been under Deng Sui's control.
The betrayal was so complete.
Hearing the movement, Deng Sui raised his head.
(_`)
This scene is a little awkward.
However, the embarrassment is fleeting.
Those eyes were full of resentment, accusation, and surprise. Did he want to pounce on her and strangle her to death?
At this time, Sun Ge also noticed this sparkling look.
Only Liu Zhao, who has always believed that brotherly love is as deep as the sea, felt that this sparkling look was a joy to the flowers.
Sunge didn't understand what was so surprising.
Didn't Liu Qing have an in-depth understanding of Deng Sui's strength and level before cooperating?
Anyone who knows something should also know that with Deng Sui's level, it was as easy as a piece of cake to build the Zhangde Hall and Changqiu Palace where the emperor and empress lived, as if they were iron barrels.
"Father."
"Uncle Huang."
Sunge shouted sweetly.
Liu Zhao's vicissitudes of life was filled with a smile. When his son called him this, he felt like a cool breeze was blowing in this hot weather.
But, what is Brother Wang’s look like?
Envy?
If you are envious, I can understand it.
After all, it is rare to find a son as elegant, smart, and cute as Sheng'er.
Deng Sui stood up, smiled softly, and then took the warm handkerchief in the palace maid's hand and gently wiped away the sweat on Liu Zhao's forehead and cheeks.
Liu Zhao's body was so weak that he started to sweat all over even after walking for a while.
King Qinghe is such an eyesore.
He used his brotherly love to deceive Liu Zhao for more than ten years, in exchange for his superiority in Luoyang.
You must know that the Empress Dowager Dou did not let Prince Qinghe and his family go to the fiefdom because she wanted to supervise it under her nose.
Well, she and Liu Qing are at the same level.
Thinking about it carefully, she had no right to criticize King Qinghe.
She also deceived and plotted Liu Zhao's life, and even reached a cooperation with Liu Qing for a time.
"Your Majesty, please sit down and take a sip of tea."
Deng Sui pushed Qinghe King Liu Qing aside without leaving a trace, and helped Liu Zhao sit down.
"Your Majesty has something to discuss with King Qinghe?"
"Can I avoid concubine and Sheng'er?"
King Qinghe, the holy family has been prosperous.
Even just now, they were riding in the dragon chariot with Liu Zhao.
"We are all one family." Liu Zhao's breathing was a little unsteady. After calming down for a while, he continued, "I have announced at the court meeting today that Sheng'er will be appointed as the crown prince. He will be in the East Palace. The canonization ceremony will be held soon."
"Thinking that this is also a happy event, I left Brother Wang to have a sip of tea and say a few more words."
The most important thing is that he wants his wife and children to get to know King Qinghe better. King Qinghe also knew something about the officials in the court.
However, his wife and children only have eyes for him.
Liu Qing was filled with hatred, but he still had to keep a gentle smile on his face so that he could not be seen as strange.
Before today, he was still dreaming that one day, everything would be back on track, and his family would be crowned the Great Treasure.
Then, the dream was shattered.
Not only was it broken, Liu Zhao actually wanted to stab him in the heart several times with the broken glass shards, and then sprinkle some salt on it.
Angry again!
Angry again!
Yes, you have to drink tea, you have to drink tea.
If he didn't lower the fire, he was afraid that he would maintain a bad expression and become so angry that he would spit out a mouthful of old blood.
So Liu Qing poured himself a cup of herbal tea and drank it all.
Liu Qing: Σ(дllll)
so bitter!
What kind of tea is this, crying like this.
Liu Qing held his breath and swallowed it in one gulp.
"This is my herbal tea..." Liu Zhao was dumbfounded.
Deng Sui suppressed his laughter and explained, "Maybe King Qinghe is very thirsty."
"Aren't you going to show King Qinghe tea?"
Deng Sui winked at the palace maid beside him.
Liu Qing's expression twitched and he closed his mouth tightly, not daring to speak.
As soon as he opened his mouth, his mouth watered.
After drinking several cups of tea, Liu Qing's expression returned to normal, and he looked like a handsome gentleman again.
"It made His Majesty laugh."
Liu Qing is slightly older than Liu Zhao and is also in his prime.
However, Liu Zhao's body was broken and his energy was weak, making him look a little old and haggard.
"Brother Wang, Sheng'er is kind and generous, and will definitely treat you well in the future."
Liu Zhao did not forget about business.
Liu Qing felt hehe in his heart. First, he was deprived of the throne by Liu Zhao, and then he had to beg for mercy from a slutty kid?
