Chapter 756: Consort Yus Son Cannot Succeed the Throne

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The first prince, Gu Zixiao, was a little puzzled. Struck by lightning?

He seemed to have heard the officials in the imperial court discussing this matter a long time ago.

When Consort Yu was young, she had fought a lot with Gu Yihans biological mother, who was also the Empress at that time.

Later on, he heard from an unofficial history that when Gu Yihan was only five years old,

In order to deal with Consort Yu, who was favored by the emperor, the Empress actually wanted to poison her son and frame him.

However, this scheme was seen through by Consort Yu in advance and reported to the emperor.

Even though the Empress kept saying that she had been wronged..

However, she was still sent to the cold palace and eventually died of illness in the winter rain.

From then on, Gu Yihan became extremely ruthless.

He vented his heartache from losing his mother and his anger from almost being used by his biological mother on killing people.

Without his mother, he was first placed under the care of Consort Liang by the late emperor.

However, Gu Yihan was not valued because Consort Liang had many children.

After all, he was the legitimate son. After the late emperor discovered this matter, he sent Gu Yihan to Madam Hua, who was known for her gentleness.

Unexpectedly, after Madam Hua got pregnant, she found Gu Yihan troublesome.

She didnt treat him well either.

At that time, Gu Yihan was only eight years old, but his personality was already extremely irritable.

He would even draw his sword and kill the palace servants without saying a word.

Regarding this, the imperial court had some complaints. The officials all submitted memorials, saying that Gu Yihan was too cruel and heartless.

They all suggested that the late emperor send him to a bitter and cold place.

The consorts in the harem were all afraid that he would go berserk and hurt people.

The princes didnt play with him, and even the consorts distanced themselves from him.

However, this was the moment.

Consort Yu, who had fought the most fiercely with Gu Yihans biological mother, was actually willing to take Gu Yihan under her wing.

The emperor quickly agreed.

When Gu Yihan arrived at Consort Yus place, he didnt restrain his violent personality.

However, Consort Yu would never blame him.

Instead, she encouraged him to kill people if he was unhappy.

She always stroked his head gently and said, Its fine as long as Haner is happy. What does it matter if others die?

Consort Yus biological son, Gu Yongxuan, was the Prince Guang now.

At that time, he also indulged his older brother, Gu Yihan, in every possible way.

This was especially reflected in the fact that after the two brothers did something wrong together, Prince Guang would hope that Gu Yihan would take the blame for him.

The young Gu Yihan didnt understand at that time and had indeed done many stupid things for the mother and son.

However, when he was 11 years old, the late emperor pa.s.sed away from illness.

The five senior officials who had been through two emperors held the imperial edict and forcefully brought Gu Yihan to the throne before sunrise.

It was said that at that time, Consort Yu had even made a fake imperial edict.

However, she was one step behind and lost to the late emperors oral decree before he died.

Who would have thought that the emperor, who doted on Consort Yu so much, would leave a sentence for his old subjects before he died?

Consort Yus son cant succeed the throne. Everything she says is fabricated and cant be listened to!

When these words spread out, the officials in the imperial court understood a little.

Consort Yu seemed to be doted on, but the late emperor must know very well what she had done all these years.

Therefore, as the legitimate son, Gu Yihan was pressed down by everyone to sit firmly on the throne.

However, what welcomed him was an eight-year-long treacherous court battle!

Back then, the youth who only knew how to lose his temper and kill people had experienced eight years of such skinning and bone extraction.

He became a world-famous iron-blooded tyrant.

For some reason, Gu Yihan didnt get anyone to investigate what Consort Yu had done.

Instead, he bestowed her son with the t.i.tle of Prince Guang, allowing the mother and son to move and leave the capital..
