Chapter 171: The Emperor Doesn't Want to Be Anymore
The battle of Tiger Prison Pass is about to break out, and in the imperial capital, it is indeed as the old man judged, something really happened.
General Pan Lin has been busy jumping up and down recently, not only to deal with the funeral of the first emperor, but also to deal with the government affairs of the court.
The princes of all walks of life have not stopped, today's Tongzhou Thorn History Book, tomorrow's Quanzhou Thorn History Book, other places like Ningzhou, Yunzhou, Yaozhou and other places Thorn history is also all kinds of chaos.
If you take a big fart, you will report it, either for a knighthood or a fief.
These people deliberately find fault, Pan Lin is understandable.
After all, he is now the ruler above 10,000 people under one person, and those princes want to step on the meat buns when they can't eat them, which is typical of jealousy.
But what Pan Lin didn't expect was that the princes under his nose actually didn't stop, especially the third prince Sun Yu, who dared to unite with other princes and gather a group of dead soldiers to plot to assassinate him behind his back.
Shi Ke couldn't bear it, he was worried about how to arrange these princes, but now it seems that if he sends them outside to be the king of the domain, it is better to kill them directly!
I have to say that since the Eighth Emperor Sun Miao was successfully promoted to the throne, Pan Lin's ambitions have indeed swelled a lot.
Murdering the prince would definitely have a lot of concerns before he put it aside, but now, Murong Chengji only made a slight suggestion, and he agreed without hesitation.
In the palace, Su Min is everywhere, and the Jin Wuwei wearing black armor wearing filial piety clothes surround the palace.
All the royal relatives are guarding filial piety in the mourning hall, and the princes are also among them.
The first emperor Sun Xun had a total of nine sons, except for the eldest and the second and ninth who died young, the third prince was the eldest, and the other princes were only eight years old except for the eighth prince Sun Miao, who was supported to the throne, and the others were all adults.
Regarding Sun Miao's succession, the princes were obviously unconvinced.
In fact, long before Sun Xun died, the princes had already gone their separate ways, and Sun Yu, the third prince, and Sun Ren, the sixth emperor, were the most promising existences to inherit the throne.
The third prince Sun Yu was in his early thirties, and he only gave birth to the eldest son, although there were five princes and seven princes around him, but he did not like the first emperor.
Sun Ren, the sixth prince, the queen's concubine, and only the four princes around him.
Among the princes, the first emperor's favorite is obviously the sixth prince Sun Ren, if it were not for this turmoil, it is very likely that the position of the Son of Heaven will be passed to the six princes.
But also because of the chaos of the party struggle in the imperial court, the strength of the three princes is stronger.
Under normal circumstances, the first emperor died, and these princes inevitably fought fratricidally, but now because of the usurpation of power by the general, the third prince and the sixth prince chose to join forces.
Each of them raised a lot of private soldiers, which were originally intended to be used in the struggle for the throne, but now they had to be used against the general.
In front of the mourning hall, Sun Miao knelt in the first place, and behind him were a group of princes and princesses and concubines of the first emperor.
The air was filled with the smell of incense and candles, the murmuring of sacrifices continued, and at lunchtime, the third prince and the sixth prince who had been keeping vigil for many days glanced at each other, and got up one after another to go to the temporarily prepared rest house.
The two followed each other on the road, and the third prince said in a low voice: "My people are ready, how is the situation on your side?" ”
"Brother Huang, don't worry, just wait for the traitor Pan Lin to appear, and you can kill him!" The sixth prince said without a trace.
The two talked briefly and then went back to their rooms, and outsiders could hardly see the slightest clue.
However, just when they thought that everything was under control, the great general Pan Lin had already taken the first step.
In the imperial city, Pei Yuanli led 20,000 forbidden troops, and while several princes were not in the palace, he thundered and detained the family members of the palace, and did not even let go of a eunuch.
The palace was even more tense, and several of the prince's disciples were lurking in the shadows, but they were all under the surveillance of Jin Wuwei under the command of Xu Shaoyang.
As usual, Pan Lin would come to the mourning hall to pay respects after handling government affairs, which was obviously the best time to assassinate.
Pan Lin, who had already seen through the overall situation, arrived as scheduled in the afternoon, followed by Murong Chengji, who was dressed as a handsome son, and came to the mourning hall calmly.
There were no accompanying guards around the two of them, and when they came to the mourning hall to offer incense, Pan Lin bowed to the new emperor Sun Miao.
The number of etiquette is complete, and there is no flaw in it.
"Your Majesty is young, and he has been keeping his soul here for many days, this filial piety emperor must feel something, it is better to go back to the palace to rest today." As Pan Lin spoke, he ordered someone to branch Sun Miao first, so as not to cause unnecessary accidental injuries for a while.
Sun Miao got up and glanced at Pan Lin, with an unconcealable fear on her immature cheeks.
It's just that what everyone didn't expect was that such a young young man would do something unexpected by everyone in the next moment.
Seeing Sun Miao take a step back, he bowed solemnly and said: "Miao has no intention of being the son of heaven, and is willing to give this Zen to the general, and beg the general to let me and a few imperial brothers go." ”
"Huh!?" Pan Lin was stunned for a moment, and even Murong Chengji behind him was dumbfounded when he heard this.
What does Your Majesty mean by this?
He knew that there was an assassination today, and he saw early in the morning that several imperial brothers would definitely be defeated?
This is the emperor who doesn't want to be anymore?
"Not good!" Murong Chengji screamed, and was just about to remind Pan Lin that the dead soldiers who were lying in ambush in the shadows immediately swarmed out.
"The traitor Pan Lin, the murder of the king and the usurpation of power, the great rebellion, the heaven and the earth are intolerable!" A loud shout came from not far away, followed by a spear rushing in.
Bang!
The spear went straight to the general Pan Lin, which was a fatal blow, but Pan Lin was dragged by Murong Chengji and escaped by luck.
"Kill!" Thousands of black-clad assassins followed, stabbing at them.
"Take it all for me, take it for me!" Pan Lin's little heart was beating wildly by this sudden scene, and with a wave of his hand, thousands of Jin Wuwei rushed out.
"Kill the traitor!" A middle-aged man jumped down from the beam of the house, drew the spear stuck in the ground, and like a tiger descending from a mountain, he went straight to the defenseless Pan Lin.
There was a crisp sound of the bell, and a middle-aged man with a halberd in his hand rushed over, and the halberd was raised, directly picking the spear away.
Xu Shaoyang's escort was in front of Pan Lin, and he glanced at the middle-aged man with a gun, and his face was extremely solemn: "It's actually you, Qian Qizheng!" ”
"He's the Gun Dao Grandmaster, Qianqizheng?" Murong Chengji glanced at the middle-aged man who was trapped by Jin Wuwei, and his pupils couldn't help but narrow slightly.
Pan Lin didn't care about this, and shouted angrily: "Don't let any of them go, kill them on the spot!" ”
"I've long thought I'd meet you, the Spear Dao Master, but since I'm here today, don't go!" Xu Shaoyang's face showed a fierce battle intent, and he rushed forward with the halberd.
Pan Lin didn't stop this, but looked at the panicked Sun Miao with a murderous face, and dragged the person to him and asked: "The old man treats you well, and personally helps you to the position of the Son of Heaven, how dare you collude with others to assassinate the old man!?" ”
"Traitor, Hugh is going to hurt Your Majesty!" Seeing this scene, Qianqi wanted to come over to help, but was entangled by Xu Shaoyang.
Seeing this, Sun Miao's face was even more flustered, and she struggled to get rid of Pan Lin's big hand, but she was dragged by the placket of her clothes and couldn't break free: "You, you, you...... You let me go, these assassins have nothing to do with me. ”
Pan Lin sneered: "You still want to quibble, do you think you can't find out if you don't admit the old man?" ”
"I, I am the Ninety-Five, if you dare to treat me like this, you are not afraid of ......"
"Afraid? So far, what is the old man still afraid of? Pan Lin interrupted in a deep voice, shook his hand and slapped Sun Miao to the ground, completely ignoring what His Majesty did not do, waved his hand and shouted: "Go and arrest the rest of the princes immediately to the old man, since they don't want to live in peace, the old man will fulfill them today!" ”
"Whoa!"
