Chapter 2304 Light Gate Lintel 104
"The queen still can't satisfy you?" The emperor was even more shocked. Unexpectedly, the third son forced the palace, and the eldest son took the opportunity to kill the king and seize power. Even the queen wanted him dead.
"Hahaha..." The queen laughed like crazy, as if she had heard the funniest words: "Don't think that the Ai family doesn't know how the two sons of the Ai family died. It's all because of your connivance with those who want to harm others. The child of the Ai family is dead.”
As long as the emperor is still alive, he no longer needs to call himself concubine, but instead calls himself Aijia.
As blood continued to gush out from the wound that penetrated his chest, the emperor's vitality also disappeared. His body became weak and he fell to the ground.
The queen took a step closer, squatted down, and let the emperor see her gnashing of teeth: "So the Ai family doesn't want to be the queen anymore. Isn't it good to be the queen mother? I might as well tell you that King Duan did not rebel. It was the Ai family who asked someone to deliver the message. Contact us and cooperate with you to put on a good show today.”
King Duan immediately shouted: "Father, now you know, my son has been wronged!"
"Shut up!" The queen waved her sleeves and refuted with great authority: "At this time, you still say that you didn't force the palace? It's useless to say anything."
King Duan was speechless. When he took up arms and started to resist, the rebellion had been implemented, even if he was forced to go to Liangshan.
"Kill this traitor who killed the king and his father!" the queen ordered.
It is better to let King Duan die as soon as possible to avoid future troubles.
The second prince winked, and the guard who had put it on Prince Duan's neck pulled his hand back without thinking... A deep cut appeared on Prince Duan's neck, and he fell down, blood spurting from the wound. And gurgling out. King Duan's body twitched twice and stopped moving.
"Ah~" Concubine Zheng De, who saw her son dead with her own eyes, screamed and fainted.
"Kill them all!" the queen only said, and the guards with swords raised their bloody knives.
Not only Concubine Zheng De and Deputy Commander Zheng, but also a few rebels fell down one after another, and the smell of blood in the palace became even stronger for a while.
Seeing all this with his own eyes, the emperor actually wanted to curse, but the more he cursed, the faster he would die, so he could only watch angrily.
She must have been oppressed for too long, and the queen admired the emperor's appearance of waiting for death. But with the "poof" and the severe pain, the wanton smile condensed and turned into horror.
She slowly turned around and watched the blood dripping from the second prince's sword. The blood was hers, or it might be mixed with the emperor's blood. The emperor's incredulous expression just now also appeared on his face.
The always mediocre second prince remained calm, with cold eyes without any emotion: "Don't think that I don't know anything. How did my queen die? It was said to be puerperal fever, but in fact it was my queen who ate you. Ginseng and Pigeon Soup, died suddenly in the middle of the night, and you got your wish and became the successor. In order to let me become the emperor, my brothers died one by one. In order to thank you, I let you go with my father. My mother-in-law, my biological aunt.”
The queen fell down, and the blood underneath her body seeped out quickly. She died with disbelief and unwillingness on her face. She could become the Queen Mother soon, and she would handle the affairs of the court while controlling the mediocre second prince. How majestic that would be. But now there is nothing, nothing. Kill the donkey, this retribution comes too soon!
Two heavyweights received lunch boxes in a row. It seemed like a simple palace change, but in fact it took a lot of effort to plan it successfully. Xining almost wanted to give a thumbs up to the second prince!
The second prince turned to the emperor who was sitting on the ground waiting for death: "In order to stabilize his power, my father married his successor even though he knew that she was the murderer of my mother. In order to save my life, I have hidden my stupidity until now. Father Emperor, don’t worry. When my father passes away, I will ask many people to accompany him. My father will not be lonely underground.”
The emperor laughed scornfully twice, with an old and helpless voice: "You are really my good son, like me."
He slowly raised his hand and pointed at the second prince with great effort: "I can rest assured, I will take care of the country..."
With a "thud~" something flew out of the emperor's sleeve and faced the second prince. "Bang!" The sword in the second prince's hand fell, and he slowly lowered his head. When he saw the arrow tail stuck in his chest, he also fell down.
It was a sleeve arrow. As expected, the emperor had a backup weapon. He knew that he would definitely win this palace coup, so he still wore the weapon for self-defense.
At this moment, everyone was stunned. Xining wanted to whistle into the air, but unexpectedly, he got it.
As the sleeve arrow was shot, the emperor could no longer hold on and fell sideways to the ground with a thud, never moving again. In front of them were the bodies of the queen and the third prince, and behind them was the blood-stained palace. When he opened his eyes, he didn't know what he saw.
The old minister who was being supported rolled his eyes and knelt down to Zhao Kang: "Welcome the new emperor, long live my emperor!"
To inherit the throne, one must either establish a direct descendant or establish an elder. The second prince was a legitimate son, but after his death, there was no legitimate son. Li Chang, Zhao Kang is the eldest among all the princes. The other two young princes did not have much status as their mothers and concubines, but this prince who was raised by the Queen Mother, with the support of the Queen Mother, would be sure to ascend to the throne.
As soon as the old minister knelt down, the minister next to him was stunned for a moment, then understood something and knelt down too. I need to express my position quickly, not only for the sake of Zhao Kang's protection just now, but also think about how much credit this has, this is the merit of Conglong. This cunning old man was one step ahead.
Zhao Kang was stunned. He never thought that the throne would fall to him.
The ministers and ministers knelt down one after another, and it quickly spread. No matter which party they were from, they all knelt down and shouted long live. The masters of both parties have collectively died, hoping to gain a chance of survival by surrendering as soon as possible.
Xining sighed and knelt down. Now Zhao Kang could only become the emperor, and there was no other way.
In the end, Zhao Kang stood alone, looking around at the people in the hall, who all knelt towards him and shouted long live, as if in a dream.
Xining secretly tugged at the edge of Zhao Kang's robe and winked fiercely.
Zhao Kang looked down at her, stunned for a moment.
"Amnesty, amnesty..." I didn't dare to say it out loud, I could only lip sync. Seeing that Zhao Kang couldn't understand, he quickly changed: "Exempt from guilt, exempt from..."
At this time, Zhao Kang finally understood and cleared his throat: "The late emperor passed away, died one after another, and the two brothers passed away. I was ordered to be in danger, and I was so sad that I did not want to be held accountable. I will exempt all crimes if I can, and offer a general amnesty to the world. ”
Great, at least I can survive. This time, the sparse "Long Live Long Live" immediately turned into a uniform: "Long live my emperor, long live long live!"
In fact, chaos is unavoidable. Looking at the corpses in the palace, there are less than twenty neutral ministers alive, and the rest are all rebellious ministers and traitors. At least once the crime of slaughtering three tribes is carried out, tens of thousands of heads will not be enough.
It's over, it's over, and there will be no comfortable life in the future. In fact, he has long accepted his fate and just wants to be an idle prince. Zhao Kang, who came to power out of nowhere, looked at the blood-stained palace and the people kneeling respectfully without any joy.
Inside the palace, the corpses were taken out and placed one by one in a room. All night guards were sent to arrange the aftermath. The few night guards were not enough, so Zhao Kang asked Guo Siyuan's people to call to the palace to help. Zhao Kang didn't have many people he could trust, but Guo Siyuan was at least someone he could trust.
