The emperor looked at his two sons beside him in disbelief. After his death, the person who succeeded him was...
He shouted angrily: "Prince!"
Murong Shicheng hurriedly denied, "It's not me... I don't know anything..."
The emperor had accumulated power for a long time, and Murong Shicheng felt very guilty. The emperor saw through it and hurriedly retreated.
He stumbled and stepped on the hem of his clothes, falling on the imperial desk.
Wow——
The memorial on the desk fell to the floor.
One of the bright yellow scrolls fell and unfolded...
It was the imperial edict written by the emperor.
Murong Shili passed the throne!
The prince, who was originally very guilty, was only filled with raging anger:
"Why pass the throne to Prince Duan? I am the crown prince! I am the legitimate son. How can someone like Prince Duan, who is from a humble background, be worthy of me? You favor Prince Duan! I should have struck first! I did nothing wrong, otherwise you would be the same You’re going to destroy me!”
"Prince——" Fan Ziyi reminded quickly. Why are you so eager to admit it?
Murong Shicheng broke the jar and said, "Now we are all surrounded. Even if I die, I won't be killed by him. Why should I be afraid of him!"
Fan Ziyi choked. Good guy, he was wiser before he died.
There's nothing wrong with that, you're right!
"You bastard! You bastard! You bastard..." The emperor was so angry that he spat out another mouthful of blood.
Xie Pingbei hadn't even started to settle accounts yet, but the emperor was already at war with his son.
"Murong Zhen, Prince Zhaoren had a deep brotherhood with you back then, and our Xie family had no enmity with you. Why did you do this?" Old Concubine Xie asked the emperor, holding her cane.
The emperor's face was as dark as water, and he tried to calm down the depression in his chest without speaking.
"Of course it's for the throne!" Murong Shicheng was angry and cursed, "No wonder you want to choose Prince Duan, you just can't stand our legitimate sons, right? You favor the bastard when your own bastard comes to power!"
"Pfft--" The emperor was so angry that he coughed out a mouthful of blood again, and angrily threw himself at Murong Shicheng, "You bastard, shut up!"
At this moment, some courtiers arrived.
The Xie family went all the way into the palace.
Most of the courtiers were so frightened that they stayed behind closed doors, but there were also some who were loyal to Daxia and came to see it in person regardless of their own safety.
Headed by Taifu Shen.
Duke An, the grandfather of the British king, also came over with a group of government soldiers.
His daughter is still in the palace, and if something happens to the emperor, what will happen to the King of England...?
Therefore, in both public and private matters, he became the last person to come to the rescue.
Xie Jiajun did not stop them and let them in first.
"King Bei, Duke Dingguo, what are you doing!" Duke An Guo couldn't understand at all when he saw this scene.
He was very confused and couldn't figure out what was going on and why the emperor suddenly wanted to destroy the Xie and Li families.
And then he was killed.
"Dong An Guo!" The emperor's eyes lit up when he saw him, "The following are the offenders, escort them! Hurry! Protect them!"
Before Xie Pingbei opened his mouth, Murong Shichengji shouted:
"Let me tell you something, if he passes the throne to King Duan, your grandson will not have a share!"
The emperor was so angry that he just wanted to strangle Murong Shicheng to death. Regardless of his illness, he stretched out his hand to beat Murong Shicheng. Murong Shicheng fought him with his backhand.
So in full view of the public, the emperor and the prince, father and son, started fighting each other.
Duke An Guo was dumbfounded.
In the end, Fan Ziyi pulled the prince away...
Taifu Shen had originally heard that something had happened to the Xie family and was planning to go to the palace to plead with the emperor. Their family didn't have much manpower, just a few servants, so going to the Xie family would be of no use.
As a result, he had only written half of the plea note when he heard that the Xie family had already entered the palace...
So he hurried into the palace again.
"King Bei, this is too impulsive..." Taifu Shen advised.
The emperor wants to destroy the Xie family. It is normal that the Xie family does not want to sit still and wait for death, but how will it end if they invade the palace?
"Tai Tuo, you came at the right time. There is an old case. Today I would like to ask you and all the courtiers to bear witness." Jiang Rong looked at Tai Fu Shen and said, then looked at Chu Shou Chen:
"Commander Lao Chu, please bring Xun Shiquan!"
Everyone in the Xun family is still in the prison of Mingxinsi.
Chu Shouchen nodded and immediately arranged for his son to take care of the people.
"Nineteen years ago, there was a shadow organization lurking in the army in northern Xinjiang. They betrayed military intelligence and collaborated with the enemy and the country, which led to the defeat of Daxia. Prince Zhaoren and Prince Xie died in battle, and the Xie family army was destroyed." Jiang Rong looked at everyone and took out a customs clearance document. dispatch:
"We met the Shadows in the Western Regions. The customs clearance document they used to disguise themselves from Daxia and enter the Western Regions comes from the Xun family."
"But the Xun family army has been transferred to southern Xinjiang back then. It is not easy to steal military information from the north. So if you confront Xun Shiquan today, you will understand everything."
The emperor's face turned gray. His reputation...is over...
soon.
Xun Shiquan was brought up.
"His Majesty promised that my daughter's bloodline would become the next emperor. That's why our Xun family dedicated ourselves to him. Unexpectedly... Your Majesty, you finally chose King Duan to succeed you." Xun Shiquan no longer needs to keep secrets at this time. .
The ministers were in an uproar.
Murong Shili knew they were facing death since Xie Lingxi surrounded them. He didn't speak for a while, thinking about how to save his life.
At this moment, he finally thought of an idea and said loudly:
"I didn't expect that your father would do such a thing. You murdered Prince Zhaoren and killed countless soldiers in Northern Xinjiang. You are not worthy of being the emperor of Daxia. Although I am a son of man, I am ashamed to be a traitor to the enemy like you. Be in the company of others!"
"A person like this who kills his brother and betrays his country should be punished for his crime!"
The emperor looked at his most satisfied heir in shock.
But Murong Shili didn't even look at him. He looked at Xie Lingxi's flattering smile:
"My father ordered me to arrest you. I am also innocent and don't know the truth."
"Cough cough cough..." The emperor coughed up a mouthful of blood again.
Murong Shicheng laughed happily, "That's right! He should be punished for his other crimes!"
All the court officials were shocked. The emperor indeed deserves to be punished for his crimes, but you are his son, and these words come from your mouth...
What a filial son.
The emperor's body had reached the end of its life, and his face became increasingly pale. Of his two sons, one poisoned him, the other convicted him, and the people closest to him betrayed him...
Everyone rebelled against their relatives.
He lost. Or, never win.
The emperor did not see his sons again, nor did he pay attention to the courtiers. His fingers tightly clenched the dragon chair on which he was sitting. This was something he wanted to get at all costs!
But gradually, he couldn't muster any strength...
"哐——"
The emperor fell down from the dragon throne and died.
