It was dark, and the palace was brightly lit.

The martial law of the forbidden army has not ended, and the palace people and others can still only stay everywhere honestly and are not allowed to go out.

Along the way, you can see the soldiers coming and going, but they are no longer tense.

From time to time, I could see a group of forbidden soldiers walking past Mo Bai, and they couldn't help but stop in surprise to make a precautionary posture, and some people immediately drew their swords, but they were reprimanded by Hu Qingyan and King De, and then watched Mo Bai walk past them in confusion.

Obviously, they don't understand what the situation is.

Under the leadership of Hu Qingyan and King De, Mo Bai came all the way to the imperial study, and when they were still dozens of meters apart, they suddenly saw Yuqing and Taiqing, sitting cross-legged in the open field with the real people of the country.

Yuqing and Taiqing were really fine, and there were not many traces of a fight on their bodies.

Mo Bai actually didn't worry about their safety, these old things have become elite characters, and they will never fight until they have to.

They knew very well in their hearts that it would be impossible for the dynasty to kill them before they completely grasped the Daomen.

Therefore, their thunderous roar earlier was simply a reminder to Mo Bai that if Mo Bai's side was finally defeated, they would naturally choose to temporarily surrender to the national court and save their lives.

If nothing happens to Mo Bai's side, it will be meaningless for the dynasty to attack them.

They don't use it at all, and they won't fight hard with the country

Hearing the sound of Mo Bai's footsteps, the three of them opened their eyes at the same time and looked towards Mo Bai.

Yuqing and Taiqing were obviously relieved to see that Mo Bai was intact, but when His Excellency saw Mo Bai, his eyes had always been light, and in an instant he turned into a gloomy look, looking at Mo Bai's eyes and anger that could not be concealed.

Mo Bai glanced at them, didn't react, and walked directly past him.

Hu Qingyan and King De took a deep look at Yuqing and Taiqing, but they didn't speak, and followed directly behind Mo Bai and walked towards the imperial study.

Suddenly, a real person's voice came from behind him: "King Ming, the first emperor's heroic spirit has not gone far, Lao Dao advises His Royal Highness, it is best to think twice!" ”

Mo Bai's footsteps paused slightly, and he was silent for a long time, he knew that this was the real person's last warning to him.

If he dares to mess around, the real person will uncover the back hand that the emperor has prepared to deal with him.

Yuqing, Taiqing, Hu Qingyan, and King De's eyes flickered, obviously they all noticed that the words of the real person seemed to have a deep meaning.

But at this time, he could only take this matter to heart, and seeing that King Ming didn't say anything, he raised his feet again and walked towards the imperial study.

Yuqing and Taiqing once again set their eyes on the real person, and the real person kept staring at the back of King Ming, until he entered the hall, he took it back, looked at Yuqing and Taiqing, and there was a rare anger in his voice: "Have you ever heard of it, throughout the ages, but who has ever ended up with a rebellious minister who kills the king?" Lao Dao dares to assert that the actions of the two of them today will be a catastrophe for him in the future. ”

Yuqing and Taiqing glanced at each other, both of them had ugly faces, Taiqing's lips moved a few times, but he couldn't refute, he could only close his eyes and say nothing.

And Yuqing said slowly: "Fellow Daoist, the knife has already reached our neck, what can I do?" But if the dynasty can allow us to wait for a way to go, why do we want to get to such a point? ”

The real person glanced at the two of them deeply, and then made no sound, and put his eyes back on the imperial study, and in the depths of his eyes, endless melancholy emerged, but he was helpless.

Yuqing and Taiqing dragged him down, so that he couldn't take care of the imperial study at all.

Moreover, he also knew in his heart that things had come to this point, even if he went to the imperial study, it would be useless.

Your Majesty's life and death have been in the minds of King Ming.

Even if he could rush over, he alone would not be able to stop King Ming, who was within ten steps of His Majesty.

Yuqing and Taiqing didn't speak again, in fact, the hearts of the two were also turbulent.

As Fang Cai Zhenren said, if there was a second way, they would never set foot on this road.

Regicide!

Even in the Dingwu era, their relationship with the country and the dynasty was so tense, they never dared to have this thought.

The matter of killing the king, whether it is successful or not, the person who does it will eventually be unable to escape the end of the road, which has been verified by countless precedents throughout the ages.

To be honest, this thought never rose in their hearts at all, and until today, hearing the Grandmaster's thunderous call, the two of them have finally not been able to escape this desperate road.

did this great thing that was destined to be intolerable by the world, and became an accomplice of King Ming's murder.

How the hearts of the three real people behind him fluctuated, Mo Bai didn't care.

In front of the door of the imperial study, there were only standing soldiers, and there was no tension.

Standing outside, I could only see the lights inside, but I didn't hear any sound.

This time there was no announcement, and no one came out to stop them.

Mo Bai stepped directly into the imperial study, and the silence in the entire hall was terrifying, and as soon as he stepped in, he felt endless pressure rushing into the air.

There was not no one in the temple, but there were many people.

It's just that everyone's face is covered with cold sweat, and they don't dare to move a bit, and even their breathing is so weak, as if there is an invisible giant hand in the air, holding the hearts of all of them in the palm of their hand.

The footsteps of Mo Bai, Hu Qingyan, and King De made the hall where the atmosphere had been solidified more and more tense.

Mo Bai naturally noticed that the atmosphere was strange, but he didn't react to it, and stepped into the inner hall step by step calmly and steadily.

After entering the hall, as soon as Mo Bai raised his eyes, he saw a pair of eyes full of murder and fear, which were fixed on him.

It's the new king!

Lao Jiu sat on the dragon chair, his hands on the table, I don't know whether it was anger or fear, so that his hand on the table couldn't help but tremble.

Mo Bai didn't pay attention to his gaze, only glanced at him, then looked away and looked at a strange old man standing behind Lao Jiu.

Not only him, but as soon as Hu Qingyan and King De entered the palace, they immediately set their eyes on the old man.

To be exact, they were looking more at the old man's sword in his hand at the moment.

A cold and shining sword was across Xinjun's shoulder, and the blade had already opened a bloody mark on Lao Jiu's neck.

With a little exertion on the old man, the new monarch who has not yet succeeded to the throne will fall on the spot immediately.

That's right, this scene doesn't need to be introduced by anyone, it is clear at a glance.

Someone killed the king!

Hu Qingyan and King De's eyes trembled slightly, and they retracted their gaze at the Bingjian, and looked at Mo Bai again, seeing that Mo Bai was silent for a long time, Hu Qingyan looked at the side of the dragon chair again.

On the side of the dragon chair, there is also a wind chair at this moment, and on the phoenix chair, the queen mother in formal clothes is sitting on the chair with a pale face.

Although he was forced to be calm, there was still uneasiness and panic in her eyes that could not be concealed.

It wasn't until this moment, when he saw Mo Bai, that he was uneasy and shouted: "Emperor!" ”

The voice of the Queen Mother broke this breathless deadlock.

Mo Bai rolled his eyes, and saw that the Queen Mother was standing up from the chair, and Mo Bai bowed: "Erchen to meet the Queen Mother!" ”

The Queen Mother stood up and looked at Mo Bai, only to see that Mo Bai was full of arrows, and the whole dress had long been out of shape, hanging on her body like a fishing net, and there were even more blood stains.

The Queen Mother's eyes turned red instantly, and when she raised her footsteps, she wanted to rush forward to check Mo Bai's injuries.

The old palace maid behind her touched her arm slightly at this time.

The queen mother turned her eyes, and saw the old palace maid glancing at the old Jiu who was held hostage above, and Hu Qingyan and other courtiers.

The Queen Mother suddenly realized that the current situation was so tense, as the Queen Mother of the Dynasty, she was invited out by the courtiers, and she could not behave inappropriately.

had to forcibly stabilize her excited mood, looking at Hu Qingyan and King De's eyes expecting her to speak, the Queen Mother's eyes paused slightly.

She knew how terrible the murder of the monarch was, and she also knew that Mo Bai would never be able to bear this charge, but seeing Mo Bai's bloodstained miserable appearance, she suddenly felt a wave of hatred for Lao Jiu in her heart, and finally sat down again without saying a word.

Mo Bai didn't hear the Queen Mother speak, so he got up and nodded lightly at the Queen Mother, signaling that he was okay and reassuring her.

Then he turned his eyes and looked at the entire palace, Qu Guochang was also in the hall, his face was pale at the moment, and when he met Mo Bai's eyes, he immediately drooped.

Mo Bai didn't pay attention to him, looked next to him, but didn't expect Zhang Bangli, who had not been seen for many days, to appear in the hall at this time.

Zhang Bangli's expression was a little sluggish, it seemed that his life in prison was not very easy, but Mo Bai glanced at him, but saw that there were no external injuries on his body, presumably the main medicine was still under too much psychological pressure.

Seeing Mo Bai looking at him, Zhang Bangli's expression was very complicated, and it was difficult for Mo Bai to judge what mood he was in at the moment, but presumably disappointment and self-blame were indispensable.

Mo Bai knew in his heart that among the four auxiliary ministers, Zhang Bangli's position should be resolutely opposed to the new monarch and his own face, which can be judged from the fact that Zhang Bangli has always acted as the liaison officer between the Ming Palace's palace and the dynasty before he was locked up.

However, the sword on Lao Jiu's shoulders at this moment undoubtedly proved that Zhang Bangli's position all along was wrong, and King Ming really had the intention of rebelling.

Everyone knows in their hearts that the life and death of the new monarch is just in the moment of King Ming's thoughts, Hu Qingyan and King De saw that King Ming was silent, they were anxious, but they didn't dare to speak.

Finally, under everyone's gaze, Mo Bai moved.

He took a step forward and walked towards Lao Jiu step by step.

Lao Jiu's body trembled more and more, but he always tried to support his last pride, his eyes met Mo Bai, and he did not flinch.

He didn't beg for mercy, but he didn't dare to say a cruel word.

Mo Bai walked in front of Lao Jiu step by step.

The two of them sat and stood at the same table across the table.

Mo Bai and Lao Jiu looked at each other for a long time before slowly raising their eyes to look at the old man with the sword.

The old man's face was also beads of sweat the size of beans, constantly dripping from his chin, and he was not fierce at the moment, but seemed to be more nervous than everyone in the hall.

It can be seen that his fear at this moment is no less than that of Lao Jiu, who was held hostage by him.
