Chapter 269 Don’t fool yourself
The old emperor was furious, but there was nothing he could do.
He can't even hold an inkstone now, let alone use the thunderous skills he used when he was young.
At that time, no one in Daqi dared to make a mistake in front of him.
He was born to follow this imperial path and should have stood at the pinnacle of power.
Now everything he had in his hands was passing away in his hands, and he tried desperately to catch it.
No matter how powerful a person is, he is helpless when faced with his aging body.
"You dare to force the palace today. Aren't you afraid that the world will say that you sat on the throne and made a deal with the imperial master?"
The old emperor sneered, looking at Li Heng with his back straight and his posture upright,
"So, he really failed?"
Without the check and balance of the imperial mausoleum, which emperor would dare to use this sword?
This was a move he had made for Da Qi over decades. After this bastard took over, he would turn around and attack his own father.
abdicate? impossible!
"If the Imperial Guards stay in Daqi for a day, they can protect the country of Daqi forever."
A flash of madness flashed in the old emperor's eyes, "I set up a trap to let the imperial master be used by Da Qi. What's wrong?"
The expressions on the faces of the people below changed slightly. They really didn't expect this angle.
We are all military generals, not good at words, and we don’t know how to respond for a while.
It is a fact that the saint instructed him to take advantage of the fight between the princes to delay the support from the north, and it is also a fact that he communicated with foreigners through letters.
But in this war, it was indeed the national division that protected Da Qi, as was the case decades ago.
In this way, can the saint still be considered as betraying Da Qi?
When the old emperor saw that half of his subordinates had been bypassed by him, he felt that he could do it again.
Liu Yunyan stood up and said, "Twenty-six years ago, Daqi and the foreigners had their last battle at Youyunguan.
Five thousand light cavalry and ten thousand infantry, including bows and arrows, light and heavy crossbows, all the elites who had spent so much effort to train died in the north.
That battle should not have been lost. If this team could stay and General He was still there, how could Da Qi's national power be so weak? ”
That was Daqi's strongest combat power at that time.
Isn’t it outrageous to use national power to exchange for one person?
There must be another reason.
As long as you study carefully, you will find that the saint killed so many clans back then, but at that time Daqi won consecutive battles, the mountains and rivers were recovered, and he was clearly on the throne!
Is it necessary to cleanse the clan?
"When will it be your turn to see a woman questioning me here?!"
The old emperor was so angry that he trembled when he saw everyone insisting on making him confess.
In fact, after so many years, he himself believed that he was doing it for Daqi and the people.
Now that someone has poked him out, he is not in a hurry.
"As the commander-in-chief of the Shuozhou City garrison, I stand here today on behalf of the soldiers in the north."
Liu Yunyan used to be a bit courteous, but now he no longer pretends to be so, and looks straight ahead with sharp eyes.
She is protecting her family and country in the North, why can't she stand here and speak?
Forced into this situation, the old emperor knew that his fate was over.
But asking him to step down from the throne, issue an edict against himself, and turn from a wise monarch into a coward who collaborates with the enemy and kills heroes is even more uncomfortable than killing him.
He is a man who boasts that his achievements are as great as those of Taizu. He also wants to be favored by all people, become an immortal after his death, and continue to enjoy the life of an emperor.
"Where is the Imperial Master? Has he also entered the palace? Let him come out to see me!"
The old emperor looked ugly and hysterical at this moment, his voice was like an old bellows, and he still had no previous deterrence.
Outside the palace, two figures walked slowly. The frightened eunuch at the door quickly took two steps back to make way. "Why does it take so much trouble to stamp a jade seal?"
Wen Zhi chuckled casually, took the sinner's edict, and walked up to the high position unhurriedly. Looking at the old emperor's fearful eyes, he raised his hand and waved it before throwing it in front of him.
Coming now is to give Daqi people time to solve the problem on their own.
It was too easy to let the old emperor die just like that. He had to declare his sins to the world, bear the name of collaborating with the enemy and killing heroes, and then die after abdicating the throne.
"What are you doing"
The old emperor looked at the sword in his hand, and his mind suddenly pounded.
How did he get Taizu's sword?
Aren’t imperial mausoleums foolproof? !
Thinking of this, the old emperor glared at Li Heng, "What happened? You just watched him move the imperial mausoleum? How did you become the prince!"
He really broke his guard.
Li Heng forced him to abdicate, he was just angry, now he is desperate.
After a lifetime of scheming, Taizu's sword was still taken away by Wen Zhi.
What does it mean? Everything he did ended up being nothing.
Without the token, how could Daqi control Wen Zhi?
This is the sword he left for Da Qi. So what if the country's fortunes decline? As long as the imperial division is controlled, Da Qi will not perish.
What now?
How could Daqi have such an unworthy descendant!
This misunderstood Li Heng. He wasn't just watching, he couldn't help it.
"Father, Miss Shen has long found a way to solve the problem and bypassed Shouling Village." Li Heng replied calmly.
Only then did the old emperor see Shen You standing in the palace. This was the master he had tried every means to find.
It's just that the master raised his head and looked at the architectural structure in the palace, all looking at him.
The old emperor subconsciously asked, "What did they use to open the imperial tomb?"
In such a short time, even if a way to crack it was found, it would still be impossible to dig it out.
Li Heng himself didn't want to know what it was.
Wen Zhi and Shen You ignored the old emperor.
You can't say it's dynamite from the end of the world.
In the age of cold weapons, the old emperor's preparations were simply a disaster, and no one could say anything about it.
If you really find a solution, you won't be able to dig it open in a short time, but it will only take a few seconds to explode.
Shen You only needs to help Wen Zhi explode in the right direction, and the layout of the Five Elements inside is not a problem for him.
"You are the expert who helped Daqi on the battlefield!" The old emperor turned to Shen You, excited,
"As long as you keep me alive, I can deliver all the rare treasures in the world to you!"
Doesn't she like treasures?
He could give her the richest state capital as a fief.
She can break the trap set by her former supervisor. As long as she is willing, she can definitely save herself!
"I'm not helping Da Qi." Shen You smiled slightly and continued to stab,
"Besides, I was the one who made the deal with the prince. The feng shui situation in the imperial mausoleum has been broken. I will help Da Qi do what the supervisor has no time to do, and ensure that the people of Nanzhou Prefecture have no worries."
"You betrayed your trust and killed heroes. I dare not do anything for you. Besides, your life is about to end and no one can change it."
"You" the old emperor collapsed even more when he thought of the practice method she gave him in exchange, "Is what you traded with me fake?!"
"How is that possible?" Shen You said confidently, "The things are real. I only said that they can cultivate the mind and strengthen the body. You just said that, right?"
If there was really a way to cultivate immortality, could she give it to the old emperor?
The last hope was shattered, and the old emperor collapsed in his position with a face ashen as death.
"Okay, forget about deceiving others, don't deceive yourself, for the sake of Daqi and the people?"
Wen Zhi's eyes fell on the old emperor's face, as if he was talking about something funny.
