Seeing Mo Bai looking at him, the old man's face did not have the slightest look of happiness, but became more and more dead, and even the sword in his hand couldn't help but start trembling slightly.

He didn't make a sound, just held the sword tightly, letting the cold sweat soak his whole body.

Mo Bai was silent for a moment, and suddenly, his figure flickered, and before everyone could see it clearly, they saw that Mo Bai was already standing in the position where the old man had stood before.

And the sword in the old man's hand fell on Mo Bai's hand at this moment.

The old man was standing beside him, stunned as he looked at his swordless hand.

"Your Highness!"

Almost at the same time, Hu Qingyan, King De, Zhang Bangli, and Qu Guochang looked at the sword in Mo Bai's hand that was across Lao Jiu's neck, and they were all shocked, and they exclaimed at the same time.

King De directly weakened his legs and fell to his knees.

"The emperor can't!" It was the Queen Mother, who also stood up in shock, she didn't want to save Lao Jiu.

It's that she must not let Mo Bai be charged with killing the king, even if she lets Lao Jiu die at the hands of that grandmaster, how can Mo Bai do it himself?

Everyone was so shocked, Lao Jiu's face turned pale, he couldn't see the white figure, and he didn't dare to turn his head to look, but everyone's reaction made him not afraid, and finally couldn't hold on to the pride in his heart anymore, and blurted out: "Sixth brother, I was wrong, spare ......"

His voice made the people in the hall immediately pay their attention to his face.

No one spoke, just quietly looked at Xinjun who begged Mo Bai for mercy......

King De raised his head, looked at Xinjun in a daze, and then looked at King Ming, and finally his eyes dimmed and he lowered his head.

Mo Bai glanced at Lao Jiu, then at the ministers, and then, suddenly slammed his palm on the chest of the old man beside him, but when he saw that the old man immediately spurted out a mouthful of blood, flew out directly, and fell in front of Hu Qingyan.

The old man lay on the ground, did not resist, his face was only bitter, and his eyes were even more dead.

He had already expected his end, whether he killed Xinjun or not, from the moment he made his move, he was doomed, and he would inevitably become a victim.

Everyone looked at the grandmaster on the ground, and their hearts were overjoyed, but when they looked up at Mo Bai again, they saw that the sword in Mo Bai's hand was still not removed, and it was still on Lao Jiu's shoulder.

Hu Qingyan was about to beckon someone to take down the grandmaster at his feet, but when he saw this, he tightened his heart again, and he didn't dare to act rashly.

Fortunately, finally, Mo Bai slowly removed the Bingjian and threw it on the ground.

turned around and walked towards His Highness, and at the moment when he turned around, Lao Jiu, who was too frightened, suddenly relaxed and sat down on the chair.

Lao Jiu came to His Royal Highness, stood in front of the table again, looked directly at Lao Jiu, and said: "Your Majesty, this king is eager to save the driver, and he has been too heavy for a while, and he has not been able to leave a living mouth, I hope Your Majesty will forgive your sins." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.

Everyone subconsciously looked at the Grandmaster Assassin who was lying on the ground, his eyes wide, and he was obviously still breathing.

Looking up at Mo Bai again, and the sword in his hand on His Majesty's neck, even the Queen Mother couldn't spit out a sound at this time.

The temple became more and more quiet, dead as quiet.

No one dared to confide in the assassin whether he was dead or not, and everyone bowed their heads deeply, hiding their expressions from where no one could see them.

Only Hu Qingyan, when he lowered his head, he happened to stare at the Grandmaster Assassin, his eyes flickering.

King Ming did not choose to kill the king in the end, he can understand it.

Otherwise, he would not have gone out of the palace to invite King Ming in, precisely because he knew that if King Ming was still sensible, he would never kill the king.

Killing the monarch will not allow him to ascend to the throne, but will only make the whole world crusade against him for the crime of killing the monarch.

A few new kings will be like this, warlords will be like this, and even the banner barbarians will crusade against King Ming, the king-killing minister.

What Hu Qingyan didn't understand was, why did King Ming leave the life of this grandmaster?

This Grandmaster has accomplished his mission.

Helped King Ming solve the crisis of life and death, and shocked the new monarch and the court, this grandmaster who was ambushed in the inner guard of the Ming Palace, has maximized his value.

At this point, he was completely useless.

As far as the Ming Wangfu is concerned, he should die, and the best ending is to die neatly and without bones.

However, King Ming actually wanted to leave his life, and still referred to the deer as a horse, what did he want to do?

This is his statement to the country, after this face, will he be the minister who can talk about things although he does not ascend the throne?

Lao Jiu, who was sitting on the dragon chair, heard this, and subconsciously glanced at the grandmaster who was not dead at all, and his eyes suddenly shot to Mo Bai.

However, I saw that the ink-white eyes were as deep as the sea, and there was no end in sight.

Everything he had experienced today came back to his mind in an instant.

The forbidden army, which was directly responsible for the safety of the palace, suddenly rebelled and opened the city gate to let the king escape.

The internal guard, who was directly responsible for his safety, would actually assassinate him while the real person was away.

Hu Qingyan, who directly relied on the first and auxiliary ministers, did not support him at the first time after he gave his order, but invited the queen mother to come out and listen to the government.

The more Lao Jiu thought about it, the more shocked he became, only to feel that he had suddenly become a loner, as a monarch, there was no one available, no one credible.

It turns out that his life and death have always been only between the thoughts of King Ming......

Look at the hall again, after King Ming killed the king, these courtiers, including Qu Guochang, actually let him stand on the main hall and point to the deer as a horse, and no one stood up to help the emperor speak.

Lao Jiu's pupils dilated, looking at Mo Bai's eyes as black as ink, he began to be frightened, slowly lowered his head and said, "Death is death......

Lao Jiu's voice echoed in everyone's ears, King De, who was kneeling on the ground, was completely deflated, and Qu Guochang's head was lowered, and he didn't dare to raise it in the end.

Hu Qingyan didn't say a word.

Zhang Bangli didn't say a word.

Refer to the deer as a horse!

A prince who has no foundation in the court can one day refer to a deer as a horse in the highest power center of the country.

"Drag it out!" Mo Bai turned his head to look at the Grandmaster who had not yet come to his senses underground, and said softly.

Hu Qingyan glanced up at Xinjun, and when he saw that Xinjun didn't speak, he had to sigh lightly in his heart, and was about to beckon the guards to come in and carry people away, but Zhang Bangli, who was standing on the side, suddenly moved, he silently helped the grandmaster up and dragged him out of the hall.

Everyone in the hall was surprised, and Mo Bai also frowned slightly, not knowing what Zhang Bangli meant.

But I didn't think much about it, I just suspected that Zhang Bangli couldn't get used to this meeting, so he directly took this opportunity to retreat.

However, it was only a moment before Zhang Bangli walked in again, carrying a skullcap in his hand, kneeling down to the new monarch and saying, "Your Majesty, the assassin has been ambushed. ”

Everyone in the hall gasped as they looked at the blood-sparkling skull.

Lao Jiu was the same, he looked at the first one, first with a burst of joy in his eyes, and then suddenly with horror, looking at Mo Bai.

Mo Bai stared at the first one, slowly raised his eyes to look at Zhang Bangli who was kneeling on the ground, and didn't say a word for a long time.

Finally, he looked up at Lao Jiu.

Lao Jiu's body trembled suddenly, and he said: "This is not my intention!" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister has something important to do to your Majesty alone!" Mo Bai didn't say anything after all, and said in a deep voice.

Lao Jiu was so frightened today, where was he willing to face Mo Bai alone.

Mo Bai was also considerate of him, and asked people to invite His Excellency the real person over.

With Mo Bai speaking, Yuqing and Taiqing naturally won't stop the real person again, it was a real person who threw a mouse bogey, His Majesty was pointed at with a sword, and the real person had no way to stop him, but now it's different, since Mo Bai doesn't mean to kill the king, then they stop the real person in this palace, that is, to find death.

In the end, the ministers still withdrew, but the queen mother didn't leave, Mo Bai actually didn't want her to be there, but she couldn't drive people away.

He knew that the Queen Mother was afraid that she would be impulsive and not take it seriously, so she stayed to watch him.

In the temple.

The real person sat cross-legged, and the queen mother lived behind the curtain.

The new monarch sat on the dragon chair, and His Royal Highness was independent of Mo Bai.

For a long time no one spoke.

I don't know how long it has been, Mo Bai suddenly turned around, behind his hands, directly facing Lao Jiu on the dragon chair, and walked to the window, his voice was calm, without the slightest fireworks: "Ninth brother, in fact, you don't have to treat me like an enemy like this, I say it now, you may not believe it, but since we have come to this point, there must be an explanation between our brothers." ”

Lao Jiu sat on the dragon chair, his eyes were staring at Mo Bai's back, hearing Mo Bai's words, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at the real person, only to see the real person raise his eyes, nod at him, and signal, he will be safe.

At this time, Lao Jiu was no longer as good as his previous attitude towards real people, at least on the surface, he no longer had half of his hatred for real people.

Perhaps it was today's experience that made him understand how important real people are to him.

With a real person as a guarantor, he felt a little calmer, his eyes gradually calmed down, and after a slight silence, he asked Mo Baidao: "Sixth brother, why do I want my brothers to kill each other, but let me ask, if you sit on this chair today, facing me like you, what will you do?" ”

Mo Bai didn't look back, only said: "You're right, if it were me, maybe I would have the same choice as you, but in fact, I can't talk to you at all." If I sit on that chair, you have my strength today, and you will definitely be unwilling, and I will naturally suppress you. But do you know that the sixth brother is different from you, and from beginning to end, he has never had the slightest extravagant hope for that chair. ”

The corners of Lao Jiu's mouth hooked up a sarcastic sneer, and he didn't make a sound, as if he was silently asking, if you don't have extravagant hopes, then how to explain today's rebellion of the forbidden army, the assassination of the internal guards, and the queen mother's interference in politics?

If you don't have the slightest luxury, you win over the forbidden army, ambush the internal guards, and let the queen mother show grace to the ministers, do you just think it's fun?

The Queen Mother sat on the side, looking at the sneer on the corner of Lao Jiu's mouth, and then at Mo Bai's straight back, to be honest, after today, even she couldn't believe that Mo Bai had no intention of taking the throne.

In fact, she had long felt that Mo Bai was a little different from Hu Qingyan, until today, when Hu Qingyan was in turmoil, she did not hesitate to ask her to come out and hang the curtain, and when she presided over the situation, she vaguely felt that Mo Bai was kind to Hu Qingyan just for today.

In addition, after today's rebellion of the forbidden army and the assassination of the internal guards, now Mo Bai has no extravagant hope for the throne, even if he is so sincere, the queen mother, who is his mother, only feels that this is too fake.

"I know you definitely don't believe it, but now that the real person is here, there are many things that you may not know, but you can ask the real person, when the first emperor was there, did I ever please the first emperor? I didn't enter Beijing for one day or two, so how could I have ever operated in the DPRK and China? You may think that the sixth brother doesn't want to make friends, but he has not been in Beijing for many years, and he has no foundation in the court, so he is helpless. ”

But is that really the case? I had no foundation in the court before, but after I subdued the Daomen, couldn't I take advantage of the Daomen's operation in the court? The queen mother is the mother of a country, but she has not been a director for many years, and with the phoenix power of the queen mother, I can always win over some people. ”

"If I really have the heart, I can insert myself into the court, and then try to please the first emperor, so, I don't dare to say that the first emperor will definitely choose me, but if you want to ascend to the throne so easily, I'm afraid it's not so simple."

When these words came out, Lao Jiu couldn't help but be silent.

Even the real person and the queen were silent, and they couldn't refute Mo Bai's words.

The three of them looked at Mo Bai at the same time, and they all wanted to know, since they claimed to have no heart for a big position, why did they secretly infiltrate the palace so deeply?

Such a contradictory thing made the three of them feel that Mo Bai was like a fog.

"Does it still make sense for Sixth Brother to say this now?" Lao Jiu spoke.

Mo Bai turned his head and looked at him, his tone was flat: "It depends on what you think, if you can figure it out and stop being obsessed, then in the future, life between us may be better." ”

Lao Jiu glanced at the real person, and then pointed to his neck: "My life is in the hands of the sixth brother at any time, where will I come from in the future?" ”

Mo Bai shook his head: "So I said it depends on what you think, if you believe me, I have no hope for the throne, why do I kill you?" Whether it is the eldest brother, the third brother or you sitting on the throne, there is no difference to me, from beginning to end, I have only one request, if you can support me to resist the barbarians. ”

"Anti-barbarian?" Lao Jiu asked noncommittally.

"Yes, the reason why I don't delegate power is just to be able to have enough ability to ensure that there is no problem with the resistance to barbarianism. Otherwise, when you want to give up northern Jiangsu today, you want to move Fang Youqun, and I want to forcibly oppose your decision, will you listen? The arrow wounds on my body have proven the results. ”

Lao Jiu said: "Sixth brother, don't you think it's ironic? As the king of a country, I watched you become a subordinate, and could even threaten my life at any time, to put it bluntly, you just let me be a puppet. ”
