Chapter 148: The Remains of the Former Emperor
Haitang pricked up her ears suddenly, and she didn't know what fun Ning Han Gongzi had to do. γγγLatest chapter reading baolyγ
"Don't be too happy." Seeing Begonia's expression, Blood Rakshasa unceremoniously poured a basin of cold water on her, then turned to Ning Han and asked, "I knew that if you asked me to come to the Vermilion Bird Country, it would be nothing good!" β
In fact, the Blood Rakshasa really didn't think about anything else earlier. It's just that just now, Ning Han was still immersed in endless worries about the Guwu Continent, but he suddenly had the interest to relieve her boredom, and the intuition of the Blood Rakshasa immediately told her that this was definitely not an easy thing to do.
Being exposed, Ning Han smiled. This also made Begonia understand that it was really not fun.
Ning Han smiled and suddenly became stern, "I brought you to the Vermilion Bird Country because I wanted you to see the old Vermilion Bird Emperor and find out the cause of his death." β
"Huh." Blood Rakshasa sneered and gave him a blank look, "It turns out that I was asked to be the coroner again." β
The Blood Rakshasa followed Ning Han through a secret passage and into an ice chamber.
The body of the old Vermilion Bird Emperor Feng Qi was lying on a bed of ice.
His countenance looked serene, his expression was normal, and there was no sign of poisoning. Generally, after poisoning, his face turned blue and his lips turned purple, all of which were absent from Feng Qi's body.
It was as if he was asleep.
However, since Ning Han said that he died of poisoning, the Blood Rakshasa believed that this old Vermilion Bird Emperor did not die for other reasons. In this way, there is only one poison that can do it.
"Another case of death from this poison, I didn't expect that this time it was an emperor who died." Blood Rakshasa Road.
"Yes." Ning Han's expression was gloomy, and he said in a low voice: "I said that the emperor died of poisoning that day, and Feng Ling still didn't believe it. Fortunately, she also heard about the Bai family, and was finally persuaded by me. β
"But if you are poisoned by this kind of poison, you should usually be killed on the spot, right? How did Feng Qi leave a testament and pass on the throne to Feng Ling? Blood Rakshasa asked, puzzled. Could it be that this emperor still had a premonition before he died?
"The edict was written by the emperor a long time ago, and I was present at the time. He had long seen that his three sons were not successful, so he never made a prince, but secretly left an edict. Ning Han said.
"Therefore, when the emperor died, I took out an edict announcing Feng Ling's succession, but the three princes didn't believe it, thinking that I colluded with Feng Ling to kill the emperor and forge the holy decree."
It's no wonder that the three princes thought so. As soon as the emperor died, this edict appeared immediately, and it was a woman who passed on the throne, how could they accept it!
The Blood Rakshasa looked at Feng Qi's body, shook his head and said: "Since you have planned to pass on Feng Ling and not establish a crown prince, then you should set up an imperial concubine or something, so that your sons are also a little mentally prepared, so as not to make it so difficult for your girl to ascend the throne." β
Of course, the Blood Rakshasa is also a joke. If Feng Qi really did this, then Feng Ling's carefree princess days would probably be long gone, and the three princes would not try to deal with her every day.
"Who the hell can stretch out his hand so long, even in the palace. What are the results of your tracking? The Blood Rakshasa asked Ning Han.
"After the death of the first emperor, the personal old eunuch who had been serving by his side also died. If anyone can poison the emperor, it is him. Ning Han said.
"Is it suicide in fear of sin, or is it murder?" Blood Rakshasa said with a frown
