Chapter 42: Palace Change
There were rumors before that the prince collaborated with the enemy and treason, but this will become the second prince? But the evidence of the crime is conclusive, and the two princes are not allowed to quibble.
At that moment, Long Yan was furious, put the second prince in the dungeon, and imprisoned the people involved in the matter. The first to bear the brunt is the Yang family.
In order to protect Yang Haolong, Yang Li pretended to insult Yang Haolong in public and announced that he would break away from her father-son relationship. Yang Haolong knew Yang Li's intentions, but his face was pale, and he still couldn't accept the fact that the Yang family was about to decline.
She gritted her teeth and reminded the prince repeatedly: "His Royal Highness the Prince, if you promised Weichen, you will definitely let the Yang family live." β
The prince didn't care. If he really ascended the throne, letting go of the Yang family would be just a word. And tonight, Zhao Guo will change the sky!
After the early dynasty, Xu was so angry with the second prince that the emperor fell ill in bed, and it took several imperial doctors to rescue him for a long time before the emperor woke up leisurely. And the first person the emperor wanted to see after waking up was Prime Minister Yang!
For the emperor to suddenly fall seriously ill this time, many imperial doctors shook their heads, it was time to prepare for the future. Therefore, now that the emperor is explaining the aftermath, all the princes, princesses, concubines and important ministers are outside the door, waiting for the emperor's summons.
It's just that what is very surprising is that the person the emperor wants to see is not his favorite concubine, nor the children he cares about, but the seemingly irrelevant Prime Minister Yang Cheng! And it was two hours as soon as they entered, and no one knew what they were talking about inside. Everyone sighed again, that Yang Haolong is worthy of being the favorite minister of the Son of Heaven, then maybe, now the prince has a great chance to inherit the throne, after all, isn't Yang Haolong serving the prince?
"Yang Haolong, you are the first person who dares to disobey me." The emperor lying on the bed did not look sick at all, if he did not look at his pale face.
Yang Haolong pouted and said: "The emperor is strict, Weichen just went out for a walk at most, and didn't he come back in the end?" β
"I know that you have joined forces with the prince to force the palace." When the emperor talked about this, he was not surprised at all, but Yang Haolong was surprised.
"Don't worry, I didn't send anyone to spy on you, but according to an arrogant person like Prime Minister Yang, how could he be willing to follow the original path?" For Yang Haolong, the emperor still has a certain understanding.
"But the emperor, you are not moving, are you sure that we will not succeed?" For the first time, Yang Haolong felt that the emperor was so hidden.
"Let's look at Gangzi's creation." The emperor's eyes dimmed, after all, no matter how much he helped, he would still have to rely on Zhao Yinggang himself in the future. It's just that he helped pave the way for him in advance.
"Now that the second prince has been imprisoned, will you kill him? He's your own son, after all. Somehow, she suddenly asked about it.
The emperor smiled and said, "Long Xiang, are you testing me?" "See if he has a little bit of humanity?
Yang Haolong was a little embarrassed and said, "The emperor is too worried. β
"If I were the king of Zhao, I would; But if I were a father of a child, I wouldn't. The Emperor said leisurely.
Yang Haolong looked at him expectantly, as if asking, are you the emperor or the father now?
The emperor avoided answering, but said: "If Gangzi loses this time, please ask Long Xiang to intercede with the prince on his behalf and spare his life." β
When Yang Haolong heard it, he mocked: "What if the six princes win?" Will you spare the prince's life? β
The emperor did not answer, but lowered his eyelids.
She knew it! is also his son, and the treatment is still so bad! "Why? They're all your own sons! β
"But there is only one woman I love most in my life." Therefore, I naturally love the pair of children she gave birth to.
"Yes, favorite, but not the only one." Because of this, she longs for the only one even more! In this day and age, men can have favorites, but there will never be a one. Just because, that "only" they can't afford it!
"In any case, if Gangzi really loses this time, please save his life!" The emperor said solemnly.
"What about the conditions?" Why would she want to help for no reason?
"If Gangzi doesn't die, you will also die!" This is his last killer feature.
"I have already issued a secret edict, because of the dragon's refusal to marry, there is no forgiveness for killing!" The emperor said this very calmly, "But if you save the life of the sixth prince, this secret edict will not appear." β
Yang Haolong hated it! This emperor has a good hand! "But what if the prince is defeated? Does Wechen still have a life? "Will the six princes let go of the princes?
"I should be able to survive." The emperor said bluntly, "Gangzi likes you." β
Why should, and not necessarily? As an emperor, sometimes liking is just liking, and in the face of the overall situation, it doesn't play a role at all.
However, no matter who wins or loses, he has no intention of letting Yang Haolong live! His last edict will still be sent! Yang Haolong can't stay!
Yang Haolong sneered: "Like it? I really don't dare to take it! "Just because Zhao Yinggang likes it, so Xu Wu has to bear those? Why? Fuck like!
In the end, when Yang Haolong left the room, she clearly saw that the emperor's face was wrinkled together, perhaps, it was already in pain. But she didn't mean to pity him.
As an emperor, he is successful, but only as an emperor!
When Yang Haolong stepped out of the room, everyone's eyes were on her, as if they wanted to get a glimpse of what the emperor had said to her inside, and why it had taken so long.
"Concubine Xuanrou is here!" The eunuch's slender voice shouted, making the concubines jealous. At this time, the emperor really only wants to see Concubine Rou, and even the queen does not have such an honor.
The crown prince watched Concubine Rou enter, and in the end, he threw up his sleeves and left. Father, you forced me! You've wiped out the last bit of blood between us!
Yang Haolong ignored others and followed the prince closely. When the princelings saw that their master was gone, they were dumbfounded for a moment, should they leave with them, or should they continue to stay where they were?
"Dragon! Wait for me! Li Dingqing hurriedly chased after him.
Zhao Yinggang watched them leave with a gloomy face, and couldn't help but have mixed feelings. He leaned over and whispered to Zhang Kai beside him: "The prince is going to act, let our people be ready." β
Zhang Kai, who has been with the Six Princes for many years, has always been clever, nodded his head, and quietly left when everyone was not paying attention.
After a long time, when the people waiting outside thought that the emperor was going to forget him, Concubine Rou walked out of the room with a pale face.
She looked at everyone with some horror, her lips trembled: "Emperor...... Death! β
Everyone was in an uproar and knelt down collectively. And those concubines who weren't called in couldn't help but hate Concubine Rou.
"The country can't be without a king for a day, and now the palace will take over the throne!" At some point, the prince returned here. Only this time, he brought the Imperial Guards over.
"Prince, are you going to rebel?" The minister under the name of the sixth prince couldn't help but exclaim.
"This palace is the prince, and the succession to the throne is in accordance with the will of heaven, and it is a matter of course, how can it be a rebellion?" The crown prince looked like he was dominating the world, which shocked everyone present.
The high-ranking and powerful Jiang Taishi stood up at this time: "It turns out that the crown prince is indeed the prince, but now the emperor has died, and he left an edict when he left. β
The prince clenched his fists. He knew it! The prince that my father liked was never him! He didn't have to look at the contents of the edict to know what was written.
"Hahaha!" The prince looked up to the sky and smiled, as if he was sad and happy, so that everyone couldn't figure out the prince's intentions for a while.
The prince said sharply: "Master Jiang, who knows if your edict is true or false?" But everyone in the world knows that this palace is the orthodox heir to the throne! β
After finishing speaking, the Royal Forest Army behind him drew their swords in unison, and for a moment, the arrows and crossbows were drawn.
"Brother Huang, my father once left an edict to pass on the throne to this prince, and you are rebelling by doing so." Zhao Yinggang said lightly.
Zhao Yinggang waved his backhand, and surrounded a team of people outside the Imperial Forest Army, which was the archers privately raised by the six princes. At this time, all the archers were directed against the prince.
The prince was a little surprised, when did Zhao Yinggang transfer people in? And they are right behind the Guards, but they don't know?
As if thinking of something, the prince turned around and glared at the princess angrily, and Jiang Junyao retreated and retreated with a weak heart. But in the end, he mustered up the courage and walked generously to Zhao Yinggang's side, and said: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the emperor has long intended to pass on the throne to the six princes, why should you do this?" β
"Slut! When did you hook up with him? "The prince never expected that Jiang Junyao would have the face to hook up with Zhao Yinggang, isn't she all his person?
"The person I love has always been the Six Princes!" Jiang Junyao didn't care, and shouted: "The reason why I became the crown princess is that His Royal Highness the crown prince must know what is going on better than me!" β
The prince said hatefully: "What promise did Zhao Yinggang promise you?" Let you be so disrespectful and shameless? β
In an instant, the crown prince sneered again: "It won't be the queen's position!" A woman who has been a crown princess, a woman who is a brother, how could he let you be that queen? You are so naΓ―ve! β
Jiang Junyao's face was blue and white. Actually, why doesn't she know? But she dared to do this because she was the only daughter of Master Jiang.
"Brother Huang, it's not too late, you surrender. The royal brother will spare your life for the sake of brotherhood in the past. Zhao Yinggang obviously has the chance to win.
Who knows, but the prince smiled and said: "Sixth Emperor Brother, you really underestimated this palace." β
As soon as the prince's words were finished, a sharp arrow shot towards Zhao Yinggang. The speed was so fast, ruthless and accurate, Zhao Yinggang didn't have time to react at all.
With a hiss, the arrow pierced into the skin, and everyone was shocked. With the Imperial Guards inside and the archers outside, where did this arrow come from? Where are the people who come to hide?
When everyone looked in the direction of the arrow, a white shadow appeared, and at that moment, Zhao Yinggang seemed to hear his heartbreak.
That was Yang Haolong!
