Chapter 449 King Chu
Chapter 449 King Chu
"I intend to posthumously confer the title of King of Chu on the Thirteenth Prince, and posthumously honor him with the title of Huai."
At the foot of the imperial court, Yu Feiguang, the son of the late Jin State Princess Qin Man and the father and brother of Concubine Yu Sheyue, brought their eldest son Yu Suyun and stood there in a daze, at a loss, when they heard Qin Zhi's words.
The Thirteenth Prince Qin Minghu was the beloved son of the Emperor's cousin who died young, but——
What does this have to do with them.
"Um...Your Majesty is wise." Yu Feiguang came back to his senses and quickly complimented.
"Your Majesty, please accept my condolences!" Yu Suyun was "accidentally" kicked by his father Yu Feiguang, and he quickly followed suit.
Qin Zhi was too lazy to pursue the silly behavior of his cousin and nephew, who were both genuine and fake, and continued:
"Sheyue has no children. Now she is bedridden and there is no hope for recovery. I am heartbroken. However, life and death are determined by fate and human power is ultimately limited. I can only do my best to make up for the loss in Sheyue's heart."
"What does your majesty mean?" Yu Feiguang immediately thought of the thirteenth prince Qin Minghu, who was posthumously named King of Chu, whom Qin Zhi had just mentioned.
Does Your Majesty intend to register the Thirteenth Prince under Sheyue's name and let the mother and son take care of each other in the underworld?
"It's all up to your majesty."
Qin Zhi smiled, then said seriously: "I want to change the thirteenth prince's jade certificate to Sheyue's name, and let the ninth prince's second son be adopted by the thirteenth prince to inherit the throne of King of Chu."
A hint of evil taste towards future generations flashed through Qin Zhi's mind.
If people in later generations were to investigate this history, they would find that Alanruo was a princess of the Western Regions who was childless and was made a concubine. She was demoted while pregnant in the same year that the Thirteenth Prince died. Yu Sheyue died of depression in the same year that her biological son, the Thirteenth Prince, died.
I think people in the future will definitely make up a reasonable and interesting story for them.
The crown prince's second son was adopted by the King of Chu. Although the ninth prince was not yet a crown prince and even the eldest son was not even there, this did not have any impact.
The Thirteenth Prince died young. If he wanted to have a name in history and a story passed down, he must have a heir with a sense of presence.
Without an heir, the throne of King of Chu is just two words on paper.
This move is good for Yu Sheyue, the thirteenth prince Qin Minghu, and the ninth prince Qin Mingxuan.
A hint of surprise flashed in Yu Feiguang's eyes.
From now on, the little King of Chu will be the great-grandson of their Yu family.
The future is expected.
After the surprise, sadness immediately came to my heart.
His daughter is leaving.
"Your Majesty, I beg you to severely punish the murderer." Yu Feiguang said hatefully.
"Murderer? Who told you that Sheyue was murdered?" Qin Zhi glanced at the pretty figure behind the screen with a smile.
"It must be that Concubine Shu who is behind this!" Yu Feiguang gritted his teeth and said, "Madam once mentioned that she and Sheyue had been at odds since she entered the palace. How could Concubine Shu kindly remind Sheyue? She must have evil intentions and was plotting to murder Sheyue!"
There were two lines of hot tears in Yu Feiguang's eyes, and they were full of accusation.
"Do you have any evidence? If you are just making assumptions without any basis, then there is no need to speak."
Seeing the retreat in Yu Feiguang's eyes, Qin Zhi said again: "I have handed this case over to the Ninth Prince. As the father of the future young King of Chu, the Ninth Prince will definitely help the mother of the King of Chu to seek justice."
"Your Majesty is holy."
Seeing Qin Zhi standing up, Yu Suyun anxiously took a half step forward and knelt down: "Your Majesty, I beg Your Majesty to allow my son and I to see Sheyue for the last time."
"Come on, let's go together."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Yu'er, come with us." Qin Zhi deliberately reminded her as he looked at the motionless figure behind the screen.
The eunuch removed the screen, and Yu Feiguang and Yu Suyun looked at each other and lowered their heads.
