Chapter 182: Chaoyan Muchen (4)

When Mu Chen was poisoned and fell to the ground in the main hall, he had already eaten the antidote that Chun Yuyan had quietly fed him. But the poison is not fake after all, even if it is lifted, the damage to the body is still not to be underestimated.

The fire lotus trick of Shicai exhausted all the strength he had just recovered, and at this moment, he walked in front of Emperor Hao, and his steps were a little vain.

He looked at his father, and saw the latter's dark and sharp gaze past him and towards the door, and smiled indifferently, "Father doesn't have to look, no one will come." After you handed over the seal, the entire Chengji Hall was controlled by my people. ”

Emperor Hao raised his eyes and looked at Mu Chen, there seemed to be a strong surge of emotions in his eyes, but the flame spirit in his body made him unable to exert any strength, even the expression of the cracked fingers, he couldn't do it if he wanted to.

Mu Chen slowly knelt down in front of Emperor Hao and looked at him at eye level.

He lowered his eyes, stared at the blue jade floor tiles of the lake, and said in a low voice: "Father, can you remember that my favorite place when I was a child was this Chengji Palace. The floor tiles of green jade, the gilded wall bands, and the incense of Du Heng...... It's so spacious, bright and magnificent...... However, for me as a child, all this represents just my father.

Being here means being able to see your father......

Father still remembers that here, you once held me in your arms, pointed to the map on the case, and said to me: 'One day, the world of the Eastern Continent will belong to you.' ’

Because of this sentence, because of my father's expectations when I was young, no matter what I learned or did, I tried my best not to fall behind. Whether it is dealing with government affairs or killing enemies on the battlefield, I am more attentive, more cautious, and more unreserved than others. I always tell myself that I am the son of Emperor Chaoyan, the future emperor of the Eastern Continent, and everything I do is not only to win the favor and admiration of my father, but also for the glory and power of the Chaoyan royal family! ”

He paused for a long time, and his tone gradually became bitter, "But it was also in this Chengji Palace, my father smashed the glass cup on my head, saying that I had committed the crime ......of rebellion, and that it was not a pity for me to die."

Mu Chen slowly raised his head and looked at Emperor Hao, "At that time, my father was actually very clear in his heart, right?" The letter to me impeached by Mo Nan'an Mountain is fake, and the so-called great crime of treason is nothing more than a fabrication. ”

The wide and empty hall was silent, except for the occasional clinking of the beads on the wall band.

Emperor Hao glared at Mu Chen, and faintly transmitted with his divine sense that was constantly devoured by the flames: "Even if you have never done it before, it has been fulfilled today. The emperor's mind is swaying, swaying people's hearts, you can't control the courtiers that day, be impeached by them, and it is natural to lose power, why are you unwilling? ”

Mu Chen laughed at himself, "Yes, it's me who is careless, and I am credulous." From the moment I used me to poison you when I was a child, and from the moment I understood why you married my mother, I should have understood that being born in the royal family is equivalent to living in a web of lies, and no one or any relationship can be trusted. But did my father ever know that when I stood on the torture platform and was slashed by the thunder to the point of pain, I was still willing to believe that you were not only the emperor of Chaoyan, but also the father who gave birth to me and raised me and loved me so much! ”

He looked away, his inky black eyelashes drooping and fluttering slightly, casting two melancholy shadows on his pale face. Then he suppressed his emotions and continued to say coldly: "You have spent so much effort to treat everyone around you as a pawn, a wife and concubine, a child, a courtier of the family...... But at the end of the day, what did you get? ”

After a pause, "Do you know who poisoned the party tonight?" Your queen, your most beloved son, together with the Fang Shan clan behind them, can no longer tolerate your means of balancing and containing the family power, and can no longer wait for you to use them indefinitely to consolidate the royal power, but they have not given them the position of prince they want, so they simply plan to kill me, kill Qingling and Baili Fuyao, and then blame Chun Yufu, who is now bent on embarrassing with the Baili clan. ”

The situation between the DPRK and China is ups and downs, and Queen Ren is Queen Fangshan can calm down again, in the face of Mu Chen's strength day by day, how can she sit still and wait for death?

After the change in Windy City, Chun entered the palace every day to ask for accountability to Daze, which was known to the whole dynasty. At this time, if the prince and his wife of Daze and Mu Chen, the eldest prince who has always been close to Qingling, were murdered and killed, and wanted to blame Chun Yufu, who was originally stupid and incompetent, it should be, isn't it a difficult thing?

It's a pity that Queen Fang Shan and her brother Fang Shan Xiu are shrewd and cautious, calculating step by step, but they can't match Mu Han's negligence.

He went to Fuyang to visit Ning Hao, and he was arrogant for a moment in his words, and he couldn't help but tell what he planned and what he wanted, but he didn't know that the entire Monan Clan's villa was already full of poetic eyeliner......

The plan will be calculated, and the sound will hit the west, interlocking.

For Mu Chen, who had commanded the imperial army, these strategies were, indeed, nothing.

"You created the situation you are in." He said to Emperor Hao: "At the beginning, Mo Nan'an Mountain asked you for the artifact Dikun Pagoda owned by the royal family on the grounds of building a military defense, and you actually guessed what he would do, didn't you?" You are secretly watching from the sidelines, nothing more than wanting the family to fight with each other and reap the benefits of the fisherman. ”

A faint sneer came from Emperor Hao's increasingly weakened divine sense, "Do you want to accuse me of doing wrong?" Isn't this a situation that you are happy to see? The influence of the family was originally the biggest constraint on the royal power. Wasn't the reason why you were afraid of them in the past because of those opinions and political opinions that rejected racial and racial distinctions? ”

"Once upon a time......

Mu Chen muttered softly.

How many years ago......

"In the past, I was too naΓ―ve, thinking that speech and political opinions could sway people's hearts. After dying once, he understands that the best way to solve the problem is to be strong. ”

He raised his eyes and looked at Emperor Hao, "Father understands this truth better than me, right?" Back then, you poisoned your brother Wang and sought the position of prince, wasn't that the method you used? ”

Emperor Hao lost his mind for a moment, and then said angrily: "Gu Yue, that slut, what did you tell you?" ”

Mu Chen was silent and did not answer.

The palace people who knew the hidden things of the year are long gone. Gu Yue's repeated accusations, in the final analysis, are just speculations.

And at this moment, Mu Chen finally came up with a definite answer from his father's reaction.

After a long time, Emperor Hao spoke again, his breath was already weak and unstable, "So today...... Are you planning to kill your father? ”

The flames devoured his consciousness, and the scene in front of him began to blur, and vaguely, he seemed to see his brother's appearance before he died, so resentful, so unwilling......

"If you want this throne, why should you do that?"

He said slowly and weakly: "Mu Han, after all, it's just a ...... Children who don't grow up. Actually, I was ready to ...... and make thee a prince. Why do you have to be in such a hurry......"

Mu Chen smiled mockingly, "Yes, I can indeed choose to wait, and when you are done using me and the people I cherish, you can pass that seat to me in the right name." After a pause, there was a trace of confusion in his voice that he didn't know whether it was pain or sadness, "But in that case, what's the point......"

He was silent for a long time, as if falling into a memory, and said: "She was, so attached to me...... In my eyes, I'm just the only one......" raised his eyes, his eyes were gloomy and cold, "But you, again and again, used her, forced her, let her marry Daze, let her become your pawn to contain Daze and Jiuqiu, and let her stay away from ......me from now on"

Mu Chen's eyes closed for a moment, thinking of what Qiu Zhi had done, and remembering that Xu Di relied on the emperor's order to use such a subordinate method as secretly placing incense, and the painful and angry emotions at that time surged up again.

"She's your daughter, not a who sells her body! How can the person I love and cherish the most be trampled on by you at will? ”

The incense ding burst out of the spark, and the surroundings were filled with the killing aura of the moment before the fire lotus bloomed. The smell of Du Heng's incense spread in the hall in an instant.

Mu Chen's unusual, unusually fierce questioning slowly echoed in the empty palace.

Emperor Hao finally realized something, "You guys...... You and Qingling...... You rebel! The beast is not as good as the ......"

The sloppy consciousness made him stop halfway in his words, and his tall body gradually collapsed to the ground.

Mu Chen slowly stood up, condescendingly looking at his father who had made him look up and make him afraid, the sharpness that had leaked out of his previous emotions had been retracted, and turned into resolute and cold indifference, "Father, rest assured, after I ascend the throne, I will hold supreme power in my hands, and I will never let anyone have the courage to criticize me and Qingling." My father and I are different people after all, what my father wants is the power of the Chaoyan clan, and I only need to get what I want. ”

He raised his hand and controlled all the fire spirit qi in the hall under the divine power, and with the gentle urging of his mind, everything in front of him could be instantly turned into ashes, "Because I am towards Yan Muchen, I am the world of the Eastern Continent!" ”

In a corner of the room, there was a frightened but suppressed gasp.

The prohibition faded suddenly, revealing a bewitching figure in a silk skirt, but slightly bowed and trembling.

Qing Ling folded his hands and covered his mouth, as if he was resisting the screams that were about to burst out of his throat.

She stood stunned for a moment, then staggered to Emperor Hao's side, knelt down and held him up, "Father! ”

I came to Chengji Hall to look for Mu Chen, but I unexpectedly bumped into a scene that she couldn't even imagine!

The sergeants stationed outside the hall layer by layer, the fire that suddenly rose in the sky above Lingxiao City......

Actually, she should have guessed a long time ago, didn't she?

Qing Ling raised his head and asked Mu Chen angrily with tears: "What are you doing?" You killed him? Killed my father? ”

Under his fingertips, the Emperor's breath was almost exhausted.

Qing Ling poured his divine power into his body, but the flame spirit was so excited that it tightened the remnants of his divine consciousness more and more quickly.

She reacted, got up and grabbed Mu Chen, and said incoherently: "You quickly relieve his flames!" Your master is Ling Huan Shangjun, you must also know how to control this kind of monster! ”

Mu Chen remained motionless and looked indifferent.

Qing Ling understood that he was ruthless, so he pushed him away and leaned over to help Emperor Hao up.

If you use the Qilin mount to send him to Fuyu Mountain, maybe ...... Perhaps, there is still a glimmer of life......

But if so,

She couldn't help but have a hint of hesitation in her mind, but if Emperor Hao survived, what would happen to Mu Chen?

They're all such ruthless people.

Who, and who will not be spared......

Mu Chen pulled Qing Ling into his arms from behind and hugged him tightly.

"Don't look, don't think."

He raised his hand to cover her eyes, looked down in her ear and said, "You just have to remember that from now on, you are truly free." No one will force you to do what you don't want to do. ”

Qing Ling trembled violently, grabbed Mu Chen's wrists, and pinched his nails deep into his fair skin, tears raining down, "But he's ...... It's our father, after all...... Our Father......"

Mu Chen slowly closed his eyes, feeling the familiar temperature of the person in his arms with an aura that made him extremely nostalgic, and feeling her contradictions and hesitations.

After all, she will not give up on herself!

Otherwise, when she saw everything for the first time, she would not be so depressed to control her emotions, not to alarm others, and subconsciously want to protect his interests......

After all, she will not give up on herself......

Mu Chen's hug increased a little, and he said coldly word by word: "Father? He had the opportunity to be our father, but in the end, he gave up. ”
