Chapter 251 Beauty's Scheme (3)
As Liu Ying spoke, he fanned the ground with his hands to indicate that it smelled very bad, but in fact, only Shi Yi and her people knew that the water stains on the ground were not all the Grand Marshal's urine, but tea.
The servant beside the general poured tea under the general's chair and the general sat on it. Afterwards, he could not distinguish between urine and tea. Thanks to Yan'er for providing this method.
The general only hated himself for being in such good health at such an old age. Such a great stimulation could not make him faint. Just when he was at a loss, Shiyi spoke.
"If you are feeling unwell, please go back first, lest it become my fault in the end."
"Thank you, Her Royal Highness the Princess." The general stood up and tried to run away, but was stopped by Shi Yi's men.
"Master Taiwei, did you call me the wrong name? I've already said that my elder brother has abdicated the throne to me a long time ago." Shi Yi's expression suddenly turned cold.
"Yes, Lord Taiwei, I have abdicated the throne to Anyang long ago, and now Anyang is the emperor." Liu Ying's words made the Taiwei so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, so he actually vomited blood.
"Someone come quickly, the commander-in-chief is vomiting blood because he is too embarrassed about his incontinence!" Shi Yi shouted hurriedly, making sure that everyone gets a piece of the melon.
The general who was being eaten by the bystander spat out another mouthful of blood, and then successfully fainted. Unfortunately, it was too late. Everyone knew that the general had wet his pants, and they promised to keep it a secret.
By the time the general came to his senses, the story about him wetting his pants in the court to intimidate the empress had spread throughout the streets and alleys, and the servants in the general's mansion came to report it trembling with fear.
"Sir, the people are gathered at the door, saying that you intend to force the empress to abdicate by wetting her pants." After saying this, the servant closed his eyes, not daring to look at the commander's expression.
The Taiwei was so exhausted that he almost died. By the time he had recovered physically and psychologically and went to court again, everything had been decided. Liu Ying became the emperor emeritus, and Shi Yi was the new emperor.
At first, the female identity of the former crown prince was announced, and she was later canonized as the Crown Princess. As for the other two crown princes, they were still canonized with the original titles, and were rewarded with many things.
After stabilizing the court officials who loved to oppose him, Shi Yi began to take drastic measures to deal with the vassal kings.
The princes are local emperors in their own fiefdoms. They have money, power, and military force. It is really difficult to deal with them.
But Shiyi was not afraid. She had a lot of small pills, and it was easy for her to deal with these vassal kings. However, in order to be the emperor in the future, she still needed a permanent solution, which was the Enfeoffment Order.
This required a gimmick, or a fuse. Shi Yi, who was always good at cheating people, chose Liu Ying, and soon, everyone in the world knew the identity of Guantao.
"I heard that Princess Guantao's biological mother was the most favored beauty of the Emperor."
"Isn't it? It's a pity that the emperor passed away suddenly, and this beauty has disappeared."
"The emperor has passed away? I haven't heard about it. There is no national mourning."
"Is there a possibility that the one I mentioned, gone, is the emperor who left the palace? You can't just keep watching people die just because you opened a funeral parlor, okay?"
There are many similar conversations on the streets, trying to let everyone know that the emperor once had a woman whom he loved deeply, but she has disappeared.
When the hype reached a certain level, Shiyi started to spread other rumors, such as someone had found the retired emperor's true love, or someone seemed to have seen this woman.
In this way, Liu Ying began his journey to find true love. At the same time, Dou Yifang's portrait began to be transmitted to various countries, all the way to the State of Dai.
Queen Zhou Ziran, who had been bedridden for many years, was the first to obtain the portrait of the legendary true love of the emperor. At first glance, she knew that this was Dou Yifang.
When she thought of this, she knew that there was a high probability that she would find a way to slander Dou Yifang, so she asked the people around her to invite King Dai.
"Your Majesty, the Queen invites you to come over."
"What's wrong with her? Has she thought of another way to harm Yifang?" When mentioning Zhou Ziran, King Dai's face was full of disgust.
Over the years, Dou Yifang and Zhou Ziran had been fighting each other. Because of the favoritism of King Dai, Dou Yifang often won. There were even several times when King Dai openly expressed his regret for making the queen's son the crown prince.
These words made Zhou Ziran feel threatened, so she reached out for Dou Yifang's child, but was caught in the act by the King of Dai. Since then, Zhou Ziran was completely disliked by the King of Dai.
