Chapter 108: The Prince Defeated
At the same time, the bell rang, the civil and military officials entered the court, the saint died suddenly, the incident happened suddenly, many matters have not been decided, and the ministers need to discuss and decide together. novel.γwxs520.
The ministers entered the court in class and were about to start the discussion, when the king of Guangling suddenly opened his mouth and said loudly: "My lords, as the saying goes: the country cannot be without a king for a day, this king thinks that since His Majesty has died, it is better to let the prince ascend the throne as soon as possible, and the world has been set to comfort His Majesty's spirit in the sky, what do you think?" β
Prime Minister Ning said: "According to the regulations of the Great Jin Dynasty, the prince's enthronement ceremony must be done after the emperor is buried, and now His Majesty has just died for three days, and even the first seven have not passed, why should King Guangling be in a hurry?" β
Wu Changhou said: "The prime minister's words are wrong, the so-called this time, that time, the first emperors ascended the throne according to the law, at that time in the peaceful days, now our saint was poisoned by the rebel thief of the king of Qin, and the prince must ascend the throne as soon as possible, and make a decision to kill the traitor of the king of Qin, so it is not the same as the previous emperors." β
"Yes, the crown prince should ascend the throne as soon as possible and crusade against the rebels to calm the world!"
"Please take the throne as soon as possible!"
"Please enthrone the crown prince!"
In the court, a large number of people knelt down, including the original princelings, as well as many neutral ministers who were coerced and lured by Jinzhong last night, and Du Ruhai, the Duke of Anguo, was also among them, everyone knelt on the ground reverently, and asked the prince to take the overall situation as the priority and ascend the throne immediately.
The crown prince Nangong Shi suppressed the excitement in his heart, and on the surface, he still looked like he was humble in the past, and said modestly: "Thanks to the attention of all the adults, I will live up to the expectations of all the adults, and I will definitely be promoted..." β
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
An unhurried voice came from the door of the court, and at the sound place, the King of Qin, dressed in filial piety clothes, came slowly, his handsome face, revealing the angular coldness, his eyes were cold and cold, like extremely cold ice and snow, which made people shudder, and made people feel a kind of evil aura coming from afar, full of dangerous atmosphere.
"The third child!"
The prince was shocked, "Why are you here?" Aren't you on the road? β
King Qin hooked the corners of his mouth, grabbed Nangong Shi with sharp eyes, and sneered: "If I am still on the road, I am afraid that I will have to take the crime of killing my father that Prince An gave me!" β
A trace of panic flashed in the prince's eyes, but he quickly calmed down, and he said solemnly: "King Qin, no matter whether you did it or not to kill your father, you are now the biggest suspect, so you can only do things according to the rules, temporarily detain you in Dali Temple for interrogation, and wait until the matter is clear, if you are really innocent, Lone will return your innocence!" β
Nangong Shi smiled: "What a thief shouts to catch a thief, the prince deliberately detains the charge of killing his father on my Nangong Yi's head, isn't it just to kill two birds with one stone?" How can I return my innocence, I'm afraid that when I get to Dali Temple, I will never come out again! β
"Bold King Qin, you dare to spray people with blood, obviously you killed Your Majesty, and you dare to slander the prince, it is really extremely vicious!"
King Guangling pointed at Nangong Yi and was filled with righteous indignation. Jin Dapeng also said with the same hatred: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the minister asks His Royal Highness to agree, and the King of Qin will be pressed down for a strict trial, and he will be able to find out the details of his harm to His Majesty." β
Jian'an Hou Wu Guosheng said loudly: "No, you can't punish the sergeant, let alone the prince?" Moreover, under the heavy punishment, there will be unjust imprisonment, and the death of the saint is full of suspicions, and it is necessary to investigate carefully and find more evidence before we can make a conclusion. β
Jin Dapeng sneered: "The Marquis of Jian'an helped King Qin speak, but because he participated in the killing of His Majesty by King Qin?" That's why you dare to speak for the thief who killed the king? β
"You're a bloody squirter!"
Jian'an Hou Wu Guosheng pointed at Jin Dapeng, his face turned blue with anger, the crime of killing the monarch is the crime of punishing the nine clans, and anyone is afraid of being involved with himself!
Jin Dapeng didn't give up, and then said: "Since you are not in the same party as the King of Qin, why do you help the King of Qin speak, didn't you listen to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince say that the guards of the Dove Killing Saint have been recruited, and it was the King of Qin who ordered him to do it because he was dissatisfied with His Majesty's punishment of the queen?" In the past two days, Dali Temple has been tried and tried, and the eighteen classes of torture tools have been used, so didn't the guards change their words? Therefore, Ben Hou can be sure that the saint was killed by the King of Qin, but Jian'an Hou helped him shirk the charge, obviously with a bad heart, according to Ben Hou, even he should be sent to Dali Temple for trial! β
In the main hall, Nangong Yi suddenly laughed, the scenery was beautiful, and there was no anger at all about being framed.
Laughing enough, he said: "The prince has a witness saying that it is this king who killed his father, and it is very coincidental that this king also has a witness to prove that the prince is the real murderer who killed his father!" β
"Wow-"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was in an uproar!
Li Kaifeng, the general of the protector of the country, said: "Since the King of Qin has witnesses, please also ask the King of Qin to pass the witnesses up, so that the adults can hear with their own ears what is going on, and fortunately, there is a sense of study in their hearts!" β
"Yes, King Qin, invite your witnesses up, it is a matter of the prince's reputation, I believe the prince will allow it, right, His Royal Highness the prince!" Prime Minister Ning turned to the crown prince Nangong Shi, and his tone was respectful.
Nangong Shi's eyes flashed with surprise, he subconsciously glanced at Jinzhong, Jinzhong was also a little confused, but at this point, it was obviously impossible to prevent witnesses from coming up.
Jin Zhong nodded slightly, and the prince said helplessly: "Let him come up!" β
King Qin glanced at the prince with a chuckle and mockery, then raised his hand, struck his palm three times, and after applause, a plain young woman walked from the entrance of the main hall, the woman hung her head, she couldn't see her face clearly, and when she reached the center of the main hall, she raised her head and said a word to the hundred officials in the court in a gentle tone.
"Nangong Xue has seen all of you!"
It turned out to be the crown princess!
Everyone was petrified, the hall was silent, and the prince standing at the top was stunned, he opened his mouth, and he didn't understand what was going on when he came over for a long time.
King Qin said loudly: "Everyone, the prince keeps saying that his father was killed by this king, but in fact, the real murderer is him, the princess is benevolent and righteous, and she can't bear to see her father die in vain, and Yi is miserably blamed, so he righteously exposes the fact that the prince killed his father, please listen!" β
Nangong Xue was blessed with a blessed body, and said: "The concubine swears again, if there is half a lie, let me Helan thunder and split in the snow, and I will not die well." β
After that, he looked at the prince with his eyes and said slowly: "After the mother concubine for a thousand years, the father and the emperor were too sad and couldn't afford to be sick, and the Jinzhong next to the prince pampered the prince, and asked him to take advantage of the opportunity of the new funeral of the concubine and the emperor to take pity on him, poison the emperor, and by the way, push the matter to the head of the king of Qin, in order to achieve the goal of killing two birds with one stone. β
"Shut up! Poisonous woman! β
The crown prince finally came back to his senses, and he stared at the princess with tears in his eyes, hating to tear her apart.
"Ladies and gentlemen, don't believe the nonsense of the jealous woman, just because two days ago, she let one of Lone's favorite concubines miscarry, Lone was not angry for a while, and punished her slightly, she held a grudge and wanted to collude with King Qin, so that Lone died, the woman's words are not credible!"
With that, he strode over and lifted Helan Xue's sleeves, revealing a hideous wound that had already scabbed, densely covered with the entire arm.
"You have seen it, it is because of this that she holds a grudge and wants to take revenge on Lone, such a poisonous woman, if it weren't for the fact that she is Princess Xianbei, Lone would have rewarded her with three feet of white silk and let her break it on her own!"
Nangong Shi pinched Helan Xue's wounds to death, causing those wounds that had been knotted to collapse again, blood gurgling out, and the pain in her heart made her want to scream and faint.
However, she couldn't.
If she can't defeat the prince today, she will definitely die when she goes back, so she can't lose her temper or faint, and she must knock him down before the prince knocks her out.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the close attendant who confessed was coerced by the prince, and the family members of the close attendant were all accused by the prince, if he didn't bite the king of Qin to death according to the prince's request, his family would be slaughtered, so he slandered the king of Qin in his heart, ahββ"
A miserable scream, accompanied by a crisp slap, Helan Xue's head tilted to the side, she fell to the ground with a stumble, her cheeks quickly swollen, and before she fell unconscious, she showed a victorious smile to the prince.
Nangong Shi was about to be mad, he knocked Helan Xue unconscious, and he was so angry that he raised his foot and wanted to kick it a few times, but was stopped by Nangong Yi.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the Crown Princess is now a witness, you can't beat her."
The prince said angrily: "What witness? It's clear that you two wolves are treacherous, and you are connected to slander Lonely! β
Nangong Yi sneered and said, "Since the prince is not convinced, then find another witness to prove it." β
After speaking, he glanced at the guards behind him, and soon after the guards went out, Li Guoshi, who was personally appointed by the emperor not long ago, and Zhu Zhong, the great eunuch beside the emperor, helped a man with a black cloak to walk in, the man covered his face with a cloak, hung his head, and walked with difficulty, like an old man, and walked to the center of the hall, the man slowly raised his head, removed the cloak and hat on his head, and revealed a pale face.
"Your Majestyβ"
"Your Majestyβ"
Everyone was shocked, shouted, their eyes widened, their mouths opened, and they looked like they had seen a ghost, and they were stunned, and no one remembered to salute the emperor.
"The son of the emperor visited his father, and the escort was late, so he asked his father to forgive his sins!"
Nangong Yi knelt on the ground and bowed respectfully to Emperor Jin Ming.
"What's going on? Didn't my father die? This, this must be fake, it's a substitute.... Nangong Shi pointed at Emperor Jin Ming and shouted in a panic.
Emperor Jin Ming held the guard's hand, glared at Nangong Shi bitterly, and scolded: "Rebels, beasts..." β
As soon as he said a few words, he couldn't help coughing violently, coughed for a long time, and said to Zhu Zhong: "You! β
Zhu Zhong agreed, but didn't say anything, only helped the weak Emperor Jin Ming first, sat down on the dragon chair, then straightened his waist, glanced around at the ministers, and said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, the emperor was poisoned by the crown prince, his body was damaged, and he can't say too much, let the servants explain this matter to the fire." β
In the stunned of the hundred officials, Zhu Zhong suddenly raised his hand, pointed at the dumbfounded prince, and said: "The prince was afraid that the emperor would pass on the position of the prince to other princes, so he took advantage of the emperor's illness to put the poison of the broken intestine grass in the emperor's medicine bowl, intending to kill the king and then ascend to the great treasure, the sky blessed, the emperor had eaten the hundred poison pills that Li Guoshi refined to him a few days ago, so the poison of the broken intestine grass failed to poison the emperor, but just let him fake his death." Later, the old slave and Li Guoshi took advantage of the fact that everyone was busy handling the funeral, and replaced the emperor with a death row prisoner who was about the same size as the emperor after changing his appearance, and hid the emperor. β
The voice that was exactly the same as Emperor Jin Ming, as well as the exact same face, coupled with Zhu Zhong's explanation, made the officials no longer doubt that he was not the real Emperor Jin Ming.
Everyone knelt down and nodded their heads to the ground. "The ministers knock on the emperor, and the emperor is safe, which is the blessing of the ministers and the blessing of the world!"
"Zhong Qing is flat!"
The residual poison in Emperor Jin Ming's body has not disappeared, his body is still very weak, and his voice is still very weak.
Prime Minister Ning Cheng burst into tears, kowtowed, and said: "Your Majesty, you are safe, please quickly issue an order, and take the thief who killed his father with the ambition of the wolf son, and take it as the court!" β
"No, it's impossible, he's fake, he's not my father, he's the King of Qin who came to act, don't believe him..."
Nangong Shi pointed to Emperor Jin Ming on the throne, constantly denying it, and trying to persuade others to believe in him too. "How can a person be resurrected after death, I saw my father breath with my own eyes, this person must be fake..."
Nangong Yi sneered: "Prince, do you think you are the only one with eyes?" Whether the emperor is true or not, can't the ministers in the palace see it, at this point, you don't want to confess to your father, and you want to try to confuse the public, it's really incorrigible! β
When the prince heard this, he laughed: "Third child, are you a fool of me?" Even if I am willing to confess my mistakes to my father now? Can He forgive me? Rather than this, it is better to be a chaotic minister and thief. β
After that, he shouted: "Where are the Janissaries?" β
As soon as the words fell, the Praetorian Guards who were guarding outside ran in neatly, and the commander-in-chief of the Praetorian Guards held his fists and knelt down in front of Nangong Shi: "Your Highness, what do you command?" β
Nangong Shi pointed to Emperor Jin Ming, who was sitting at the top, and said loudly: "This person colluded with the King of Qin and pretended to be a saint, and the Qing and others can kill these two people on the spot. β
The prince is reversed, blatantly reversed!
The ministers were stunned, watching the Praetorian Guards holding their swords and stabbing at the emperor King Qin.
King Qin was not in a hurry, and with an arrow step, he blocked the emperor's dragon case, and swished out a soft sword from his waist and fought with the group of Praetorian Guards.
Under the court, some loyal generals were not to be outdone, and fought with these Praetorian Guards with their bare hands.
Nangong Shi looked coldly at the Praetorian Guards who kept pouring into the inner hall, and smiled gloomily, what if King Qin won the battle? What if the emperor escaped the last catastrophe, doesn't he still have to die? Who let them stand in his way?
He has already bribed the commander-in-chief of the Praetorian Guard, and the palace is already under his control, so even if he is publicly exposed to his accusation of usurping the throne and killing his father, he is not afraid, since ancient times, the winner is the king and the loser is a thief, it's a big deal, after he ascends the throne, use his brains and let the historians tamper with history for him!
β¦β¦*β¦β¦*β¦β¦
Emperor Jin Ming leaned on the wide dragon chair and looked at his two sons with sadness.
These two sons, one of whom he grew up holding in the palm of his hand like a treasure, gave him the best, and even at the moment before he was poisoned, he thought about how to let him continue to be the prince, but this son was pressing step by step, and he was determined to take his life; The other was raised in his ignorance, out of indifference, he really didn't give him anything, and even knew that Concubine Jin and the prince had assassinated him several times, but he chose to turn a blind eye, but this son is now standing in front of him, swearing to defend him to the death!
Zhu Zhong stood beside Emperor Jin Ming, waving the dust in his hand, and fought with several Praetorian Guards who rushed up, and Li Guoshi also held an iron ruler of Xuantie to repel the Praetorian Guards who were close to the emperor one by one.
There was a mess in the court, the timid ministers held their heads, huddled in the corner, their swords without eyes, who knew if they would hurt themselves, and some courtiers loyal to Emperor Jin Ming fought hard with the Janissaries, many people were injured for this, and some lost their lives...
β¦β¦*β¦β¦*β¦β¦
Although Cai Wei is not in the court, her heart has been hanging in her throat and eyes, and the man does not allow her to meddle in the affairs of the court, lest she fall down the handle of the courtiers, saying that she is a chicken Si Chen, interfering in the government affairs, and it will be unfavorable for her to ascend to the throne in the future, so she can't be there in person about today's events, and can only understand through the paraphrase of Brother GuΓ².
"Ga-master, King Qin cut down another one, eight..."
Three thousand Praetorian Guards, even if eight are cut down and there are countless of them, Cai Wei is anxious, above the court, no hidden guards are allowed, it can be said that now it is just Nangong Yi alone fighting with the three thousand Praetorian Guards.
"Brother Parrot, I'll send Changmei to help you immediately, and you two will save him no matter what."
After speaking, she flashed into the space, ran to the old turtle's alchemy room, and found all the drugs, itching medicines, madness drugs, and even aphrodisiacs on the old turtle's medicine shelf.
"Changmei, you and Brother Parrot will take these medicines in a while and go to help King Qin, remember, protect yourself and protect him!"
Long eyebrows looked at a large bag of bottles and cans, bared his teeth, and showed a painful expression!
"Master, it's easy to be found when you go out to swagger with so many things on your back!"
Cai Wei stuffed the big bag to Changmei, and said, "Then don't let people find out, it's easier to store these above the roof of the main hall first, and then get them after your medicine runs out." β
Changmei rolled his eyelids, and jumped out of Zhuangzi with a big bag of medicine on his shoulders....
Cai Wei was still apprehensive, walking around the house, asking Brother Parrot for news from time to time.
"Ah, master, the rush is here, hey, and brought a lot of people, heh, it's amazing, and in a blink of an eye, it will be knocked down..."
Rush Ba is gone!
Cai Wei was happy in her heart, now, the man is no longer alone, that is to say, the chance of a man in distress is much smaller than before!
"Hey, the emperor's secret guards are also here, and there are quite a few, hahaha, master, now you don't have to worry, although the number of the emperor's and Qin's secret guards is not many, but they are all masters, and King Qin will definitely win!"
Cai Wei's heart suddenly jumped up, and the emperor's secret guard was also dispatched, which is really good, the emperor's secret guard plus Nangong Yi's secret guard, plus Cai Wei's medicine to help them, will definitely be able to defeat the prince in one fell swoop!
was happy, Brother Parrot shouted again: "Haha, General Li's people have also entered the palace, hey, now there are more people on King Qin's side than on the prince's side, win steadily, hey!" Monkey, you're here? β
Changmei stuffed a green medicine bottle into its claws, pointed to the corner of the Rui Beast House on the roof of the main hall and said, "The master asked us to help King Qin, the medicine envoy is gone, there is still there!" β
"Wait a minute!"
Cai Wei hurriedly stopped them, since the King of Qin and the emperor's hidden guards were here, and General Li also sent someone, indicating that the man was safe at this time, there was no need for her to expose her divine beast.
"Don't act rashly for the time being, it's not too late to save King Qin when he is in danger, remember?"
"Got it, master!"
The two guys had nothing to do for the time being, so they both squatted on the big tree outside the court hall and watched the excitement in the hall.
The forces of the emperor, the empress, and the Qin Wang's family were all dispatched, and even General Li also dispatched his hidden forces in Beijing, as well as several military generals in the court, who also became more and more courageous, and had the potential to capture the prince's gang of traitors in one fell swoop.
The crown prince and Jin Zhong made thousands of calculations, but they did not calculate that Emperor Jin Ming did not die, and there was such a big force behind Emperor Jin Ming, after a duel and fighting, the Praetorian Guards obviously had the upper hand, and those well-trained secret guards were ruthless when they killed people, and they were all killed with one sword, which was many times stronger than the collective training of the Praetorian Guards.
The prince was a little frightened, thinking of the fate of the Praetorian Guards if they were defeated, and couldn't help but show a panicked look. Jin Zhong pursed his lips tightly, and seeing that the Praetorian Guards had suffered heavy losses, he suddenly took out a green sphere from his sleeve and threw it to the ground.
"Bang-"
With a bang, a puff of smoke came out of the green ball, engulfing the hall in an instant.
"Ahem, ahemβ"
"What is this, I can't see anything..."
"Quick, don't be verbose, escort..."
"Oops, you stepped on me..."
After a period of noisy shouting, the smoke gradually dissipated, and on the hall where the blood flowed into the river, where were the figures of the prince and Jinzhong?
------Off topic------
Well, the big * is coming soon, and Yi will soon become a prince!
