Chapter 52: The Struggle for the Throne

"Ahem...... Si Junyao coughed twice and reminded: "I said, we can also help you find the news!"

Seeing that the tiger claw still decided to pierce her throat for a moment, Chu Zui immediately spoke: "I know, I know everything!"

The tiger demon's subordinates suddenly softened, and when Si Junyao saw this, he immediately made a move, and the short knife in his hand was cold in an instant, and he slashed directly at Chu Zui's neck.

Chu Zui withdrew suddenly, and only two drops of blood were left on the ground, staining the withered grass on the ground, revealing Si Junyao's uneasy heart.

He turned to look at the Nine Emperor Princes Sui'an and said, "What should I do?"

"I'll go inside and see if she won't turn over the flowers. With that, he walked slowly into the hall again, and continued to talk and laugh with the ministers as if nothing had happened.

Chu Zui shook his scratched wrist, and after recovering from the spell, he sat back beside him and looked at the sullen Si Yichen.

Does Si Yichen know about this? Or does he just dislike Si Junyao?

She looked at the Nine Emperor Princes who continued to talk and laugh.

Who does he want to kill?

Si Yichen?

Prince?

Other princes?

Or the emperor?

"What's wrong?" casually said, taking her shoulders and concerning.

"No, it's nothing!" Chu Zui just shook his head.

Suddenly, "boom-" The roof was punctured, and the tiger demon had already changed into a night robe at this time, and showed his claws in front of the emperor.

Beside the emperor, the eldest prince sat peacefully, and was so frightened by this scene that he couldn't move, but Chu Zui could see that the eldest prince's face was not frightened but incredulous.

Seeing that the tiger demon was in a hurry, his claws were about to pierce the throat of the great prince.

The tiger demon changed direction at the last moment, skipped the eldest prince and stabbed straight into the emperor's throat.

That speed was unmatched, but at the moment when the tiger demon hesitated to the eldest prince, the Nine Emperors blocked the emperor's side.

After a "poof", blood splattered.

The tiger demon misses a blow and does not love to fight, and then escapes.

"Stop him!" said Sui Yu while everyone was still shocked, and the forbidden army guarding outside the lobby immediately unsheathed his sword and chased after him.

The emperor lowered his head, looked at the Nine Emperor Princes who were covering the wounds and oozing blood from the corners of his mouth, and said distressedly: "An'er, An'er-"

The Nine Emperor Princes looked up at the emperor with a concerned look in his eyes, "Father, are you okay...... It's just ......," said Ann and fainted.

The emperor was furious and immediately said, "Yu'er, go and chase it!"

As soon as he was ordered, he immediately chased him out.

The original red color in the Xitang is also particularly dazzling and panicked because of the bloody smell, and the military generals are in a mess, but no one dares to speak loudly, so they can only discuss it in private.

The emperor hugged his most beloved youngest son unconscious, and immediately said: "The imperial doctor is too slow, who knows how to heal and can save my son!"

Everyone present is a good hand at stirring up the situation, not to mention that the medical skills are not good, even if they can, they dare not act rashly.

"Father, son-in-law can!"

"Your Majesty, the folk girl please give it a try. ”

Two voices sounded at the same time, the first was Sui Ling, the great prince with excellent medical skills, and the second was the third lady of Chu Zhiyuan's family, Chu Li.

If it weren't for the wedding banquet with Chu Zhiyuan's family before, the emperor would naturally not know Chu Li.

After a moment of hesitation, the emperor said, "Let's invite Miss Chu to come up." cough cough cough ......"

"Yes!" Chu Li stepped forward, and the Chu family was in danger because of Chu Yue's ignorance, so she decided to come forward to win the emperor's favor and strive to return to its original status for the Chu family.

Chu Zui understood what his third sister was thinking, and at the same time believed in her medical skills, so he didn't say much, but looked at the eldest prince with an extremely ugly face.

It is rumored that the eldest prince opened the "Hades Pavilion" to make friends with demons and ghosts, and the tiger demon just now obviously killed him more conveniently, but obviously bypassed the eldest prince and directly assassinated the emperor, which inevitably made people suspicious.

And the emperor's intention to choose Chu Li is obvious, he just wants to tell the government and the opposition that he suspects that the assassination was done by the eldest prince, and he no longer believes in the eldest prince.

When Chu Li bandaged the Nine Emperor Princes, Sui Yu had already rushed back, and used his bright mana to make ropes and tie up more than a dozen ghosts and throw them into the lobby.

Hell, the ministers were embarrassed, and the timid Wenchen had already begun to vomit against the wall and hide behind the other officials, and several of the official ladies had already fainted in fright.

casually glanced at the hundred officials behind him with disdain, and said to the emperor: "Father, when the sons chased to the gate of the East Palace, they saw a large number of corpses of the forbidden army, as well as more than a dozen ghosts gathered here, and the tiger demon took the opportunity to escape. ”

"Presumptuous!!" The emperor was furious, and slapped the table so that the golden plate and jade cup clanged, instantly quieting the hall, and the hundred officials and concubines retreated, not daring to speak, for fear of accidentally getting into trouble.

Chu Zui slowly walked to the pile of ghosts who were thrown in like arhats under the incredible gaze of everyone, checked it, and said to the emperor:

"Your Majesty, these ghosts and the ghosts who attacked Taixue are controlled by a tiger demon, and the minister deduces that it is probably the tiger demon who just assassinated. ”

The emperor glanced at the eldest prince unhappily, and finally stopped coughing, stared at Chu Zui and said, "How can you see it?"

Chu Zui raised his hand and released the ghost he had locked in the lock spirit pot, which once again scared off a wave of official ladies and civil officials.

The ghost howled wildly on the ground, but instead of attacking everyone first, he opened his mouth to bite and lock the mana of the other ghosts, and even though he would be injured, he still wanted to continue to rescue the locked ghosts.

Everyone was shocked, and Chu drunk and said: "Your Majesty, different ghosts have different ghosts, and if you put ghosts with the same ghost spirit together, not only will they not attack each other, but they will share the same enemy." ”

"Then how do you know that these ghosts are in one camp, what if it's because they're all ghosts?" asked one of the ministers.

That's not true. Chu drunk and said: "Even if they are all ghosts and do not belong to the same camp, the ghosts will have different spirits, and they will attack each other." ”

casually locked up the ghosts released by Chu Zui, and let the forbidden army escort them to the prison built for ghosts in the National Teacher's Palace.

The emperor coughed twice again and said, "Lord Chu means that the attack on Taixue and the assassination of me were done by the same person?"

"Yes!" Chu Zui replied unequivocally.

The old emperor coughed twice, turned his eyes to look at the eldest prince, and said, "Ling'er, what do you think?"

The eldest prince Sui Ling's face darkened, and he said: "Erchen thinks what Lord Chu said is extremely true, but his father is sick, and he also asks Erchen to treat his father." ”

Hearing this, the emperor was even more angry, and then said, "No need, cough cough...... Miss Chu, can you take my pulse?"

Chu Yue was flattered, suddenly looked up at the emperor, knelt down and kowtowed deeply, and said, "The people do their best." Then he took the emperor's wrist.

Chu Zui looked at the eldest prince and the emperor, according to legend, the emperor has had a hidden illness for many years, only the eldest prince can cure it, the eldest prince can cure the demons but why can't he cure the emperor?

Or, to make a more terrifying scenario, the purpose of the great prince is to use this to control the emperor.

The battle for the throne is really dangerous, and each one has deep thoughts.
