Chapter 622 The Oppressed Twin Brothers 18
"When the eldest princess entertained my second brother, you went in his place. Princess Duan Ning saw you at that time. Will she find out anything?"
Yun Xin looked at Yun Yi, who had revealed his original appearance and was wearing an imperial robe, and asked with some concern.
“Even if she finds out something, she won’t do anything.” Yun Yi said with a smile.
Although Sheng Tang is still Princess Duan Ning, she has resentment towards the Queen Mother and Emperor Ning, and is no longer as close to them as before. Moreover, within the royal family, her status as a princess is not enough to support her in doing anything.
Sheng Tang has been living a cautious life, so she naturally won't cause herself any more trouble. What she wants to do most now is to meet Ning Ruli and reunite mother and daughter.
Yun Xin nodded in understanding and could only sigh at Sheng Tang's situation.
Yun Yi looked at the time and went to the secret room in the bedroom where the real Emperor Ning was imprisoned by them.
Seeing Yun Yi coming in, his already pale face turned even paler, but the look he gave him was full of ruthlessness, and he angrily cursed: "Traitor, you killed the king and seized the throne, sooner or later you will be punished."
"I believe in retribution." Yun Yi smiled and walked to the table, poured a pill into the teacup, and then dissolved the pill with tea.
Holding the cup, he came to Emperor Ning, his lips moved slightly as he said, "Because, I am your retribution."
In the plot, it was Ning Ruli who ordered the fire that destroyed the entire Yun family, but the root cause was that His Majesty wanted Sheng Tang to willingly go to marry.
Clamp Emperor Ning's chin and pour the medicine into him.
After drinking this medicine, he can survive even if he doesn't eat or drink. In this way, Yun Yi doesn't have to bother feeding him. He just needs to feed him a cup of medicine every few days to keep him alive.
After doing all this, Yun Yi turned around and left neatly.
The stone door of the secret room was tightly closed again. Emperor Ning gasped violently, forcing himself to endure the space with only dim light.
This secret room was built by the founding emperor Taizu, and only successive emperors knew of its existence.
The secret room allows the king to handle some matters secretly, and the degree of privacy varies from king to king.
Emperor Ning never imagined that one day he would be imprisoned here, with no one to turn to for help.
What are those people outside doing? Their master has been replaced by someone else, but they didn’t notice at all?
That day, he summoned the brother and sister Yun Yi and Yun Xin into the palace. After he promised them a large sum of money, both of them agreed to work for him and handed over a scroll of bamboo slips, which recorded many Miao techniques.
Among them there was an ingredient that could make people healthy and live to a hundred years old, so he asked them to refine it.
After asking for many precious and rare medicinal materials, within a few days, the brother and sister had refined a pill for him.
With a cautious attitude, he fed the pill to the palace servants. Over the next few days, the palace servants were radiant and even had ten times more strength than before. They could even draw a bow with strength that could compete with the general.
It would be impossible to tell whether the elixir had any side effects within a few days, but he thought that if the elixir was distributed to the soldiers on the front line, wouldn't each of them be able to fight ten enemies at once? With such a strong fighting force, how could Ningguo be afraid of not being able to win?
As long as we can defeat the State of Chen, it doesn't matter even if side effects are discovered in the future.
So he found Yun Yi and his sister and asked them to refine it in batches.
But just a few days later, when the brother and sister presented a box of pills to him, he suddenly felt dizzy.
When he opened his eyes again, he was already in a secret room, and standing in front of him was someone who looked exactly like him.
Yun Yi tore off the human skin mask without hesitation, saying that as long as he was obedient, he would not take his life so quickly.
At this point, Emperor Ning knew the plans of the three siblings.
One replaced his identity, and the other fought on the battlefield. Yun Yi used his identity to promote Yun Lang naturally.
And there is Yun Xin. If she picked up a child from somewhere and said that he was a prince, the three siblings would have the possibility of usurping the throne.
If they really succeed, then the world will belong to their Yun family.
Thieves, they are all traitors.
Emperor Ning looked around. In order to hide it, this secret room was built underground. It was made of the hardest stones. Apart from a few tiny ventilation holes, there was only one entrance, which was the door.
And from the entrance is the bedroom of the imperial study...
Lying on the bed, Emperor Ning now only hoped that someone would soon discover that something was wrong with the "current emperor", and quickly expose the conspiracy of the three brothers and sisters, and quickly rescue him...
But Emperor Ning didn't know that since Yun Yi dared to wear a human skin mask to impersonate him, he must have made full preparations and knew everything about him in detail to ensure that no one would find out.
Since being crowned as a concubine, Yun Xin has been living in the imperial study, creating an appearance of being very favored.
Although there were censors who made suggestions, they were all ignored by Yun Yi.
In the harem, the empress dowager and the queen also brought up the matter, but without exception, they were scolded back by Yun Yi.
As for the princes and princesses, they had no right to interfere in the emperor's affairs between men and women.
Ever since Sheng Tang returned to Ningguo, the war between Ningguo and Chenguo has been on the verge of breaking out.
Although Yun Lang did not experience the grief of the death of his family as in the plot, he was able to make full use of the military strategies that Yun Yi had shown him before after entering the battlefield.
He defeated all the enemies along the way and soon captured two cities with the vanguard troops.
Of course, this was also due to Yun Xin's connections, which allowed him to be promoted directly to deputy general without having to start as an ordinary soldier, and Yun Lang also proved with his own abilities that he was worthy of this position.
At the same time, the imperial physician in the palace diagnosed that Concubine Yun was one month pregnant.
In the following period of time, Concubine Yun was taking care of her pregnancy while Yun Lang was conquering cities on the front line.
Even though Concubine Yun was pregnant, she still lived in the imperial study, and Yun Lang frequently received good news from the front line. For a while, the Yun family was the most powerful.
Seeing this situation, the princes who had been calm could no longer sit still.
The eldest prince of Emperor Ning was already over twenty years old. It was thought that even if Concubine Yun gave birth to a prince, it would be twenty years late and she would have no hope of competing with them for the throne.
But now seeing Yun Lang's unstoppable momentum, I really can't help but start to worry that the Yun family will one day support their youngest son to ascend the throne.
Yun Yi saw their actions and found a prominent person to demote and strip him of his title as a warning to others.
In this way, the other princes knew that their "father" attached great importance to the imperial power and would not allow anyone to interfere. Anyone who wanted to do anything else would have to think twice before acting.
After it happened once or twice, they no longer dared to take any action.
And because he stripped two princes of their titles in succession and was so moody, all the aristocratic families in the capital felt insecure for a while.
