Chapter 4: Killing the King
It's just that Yun Xingyan doesn't care about these things anymore, he has been prepared for a long time, and now he is here to have a showdown with Emperor Wu directly, only to see him say: "No one can ascend the throne as emperor except me!" Those who stand in my way are dead! ”
"You...... You're going to cause the clan to fight each other?! ”
Emperor Wu said in astonishment: "Have you ever thought that this will be ......?"
"I don't care!"
Yun Xingyan shouted: "Tang Taizong still killed his brother back then, but he is a good emperor!" ”
"You...... It's crazy, it's just a disloyal, unfilial, unkind and unrighteous brute, I will kill you! ”
Emperor Yun Wu walked to the side and wanted to draw the sword from the shelf, but Yun Xingyan grabbed his wrist and pushed him on the table beside him, the previous chess board instantly fell to the ground, and the chess pieces made a crisp sound from the ground, Emperor Wu covered his chest in pain and roared in a low voice, but Yun Xingyan roared: "I said, if you prevent me from ascending to the throne, there is only one way to die!" I'll ask you again, you won't give way! ”
Emperor Wu said unadmittedly: "Hmph, you think you won?" I'm not afraid to tell you that I've already spoken first, and the edict of succession has already been entrusted to a credible person, so you will be waiting to be crusaded against! ”
"Are you talking about me?"
At this time, at the door of the Heart Cultivation Palace, there was another thunderstorm, mixed with electric light, a woman stood there with a brocade box in her hand, Emperor Wu saw the appearance of the person who came, and was suddenly shocked, pointed to the woman, and then pointed to Yun Xingyan, and said, "You...... You have betrayed me? Slut, slut! ”
Zhang Jie said at this time: "My life was originally saved by the third prince, and entering the palace was just to stunt you, an old fox, and I can't talk about any betrayal with you, not to mention, didn't you also explain in the holy decree that you want to arrange for me to be martyred for you?" Hehe, no one between us has any real feelings, why do you have to divide everything so clearly? ”
"You...... Ahem! ”
Emperor Yunwu finally couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of old blood, and at this time, Yun Xingyan interrupted: "Father, I'm asking you again, do you want to give way?!! ”
"Don't waste your lips, I won't make a decree! Forehead...... What are you doing? ”
Emperor Wu climbed on the table at this time, but saw Yun Xingyan take out a bottle of medicine from his sleeve, pull out the lid, and slowly walked towards Emperor Wu, with indifference and ruthlessness in his eyes, he slowly stepped forward, grabbed Emperor Wu's throat, raised the hand holding the medicine slightly, and said tremblingly: "Erchen...... Unfilial! ”
"You...... You...... I ......"
Emperor Wu wanted to struggle, but could only make a babbling sound, Yun Xingyan poured a small porcelain bottle filled with poison into his throat, and it was not until Emperor Wu rolled his eyes that Yun Xingyan let go of his hand, and then staggered back...... It was the only time he swung his sword, and this day, he had waited for five years!
He, kill his father!
Mother, frost...... You can look at it!
Yun Xingyan turned around slowly, Zhang Jie stepped forward at this time to help him, and asked, "Are you okay?" ”
"It's okay to be alone!"
Yun Xingyan said: "Go to Qianyang Palace!" ”
So the two of them went one after the other, escorted by many guards to the front hall, as for Emperor Wu...... He lay there forever, and it was expected that the people in the north building would stay behind to clean up the scene, and on the other side, Du Ke and the others commanded their cronies and Wang En, who was the celebrant supervisor, to clean the blood-stained Qianyang Palace spotlessly, and Yi Yinyang stood aside with his hands on his chest, and said, "Tsk, it's the most ruthless emperor's family...... Who would have thought that the final winner would be the inconspicuous him? ......"
Wang En coughed on the side and said, "Be careful when you speak, this is the palace!" ”
"Cut ......"
Yi Yinyang glanced at Wang En and didn't speak, and Du Ke said: "Don't quarrel, hurry up and find out, Emperor Yunwu must have left some edicts, if it is turned out by someone with a heart afterwards, it will be suffered!" ”
Just as everyone was going in and out of the outer three palaces, they saw the gate of Qianyang Palace open, Yun Xingyan and the queen standing side by side, only to see him say: "Don't look for it!" The old thief's edict is with me! ”
"Queen!?"
Twilight Ke wasn't too surprised, but smiled, "You are really Yun Xingyan's person!" No, I should have changed my words, Your Majesty, our new emperor of Dayun ...... "Wonderful."
Zhang Jie didn't talk, but Yun Xingyan asked, "What about Long Junxian and Li Ying?" ”
Yi Yinyang pointed to the two cloth bags on the side and said, "It's all there!" ”
"Well done!"
Yun Xingyan ordered: "Wang En, take the seal!" ”
"......"
So a few people casually took a blank scroll of holy decrees in front of this dragon case, and then Yun Xingyan glanced at Xu Maan, who was silent on the side, and said, "Haven't you always wanted to compete with others in calligraphy?" Go! Write better, don't show any flaws! ”
So everyone began to write the holy decree, Yun Xingyan was always worried about Emperor Wu's succession to Yun Tianqing, at this time Xu Mad had already copied half of it, but saw Yun Xingyan said: "Slow, change the funeral list to, everything is simple, and I want the imperial concubine to return to the north together!" ”
"Your Majesty, is it necessary to do such a desperate thing? She's your mother! ”
Twilight Ke was a little reluctant at this time, but Yun Xingyan glared at him and said, "Those who have achieved great things are not informal, keep her, do you have to ask her to help Yun Tianqing?!" Uncle, you and I have always been of the same heart, and at this time, don't have the kindness of a woman, this is what you taught me! ”
"Oh, that's it!"
The wood is already in the boat, Du Ke still understands the measure, everything is to blame for his sister who is too partial to Yun Tianqing, so that Yun Xingyan hates her so much!
A quarter of an hour later, Xu Mad finished writing, and added a few strokes to the original holy decree, that is, several auxiliary ministers were appointed to confuse the true with the false, the first assistant was Duke, and in the future, Li Zhangyi, Guo Shouqian, Liu Boren and other prestigious courtiers......
"Your Majesty, please take a look!"
Xu Mad spread the holy decree in front of Yun Xingyan, Wang En held the lamp on the side, Yun Xingyan glanced at it quickly and nodded, and said indifferently: "Act according to the plan, there must be no mistakes!" ”
Half an hour later......
There was a sound from the bell tower, but whenever there is a major event, there will be eunuchs to report, at this time the princes and the ministers of the night vigil outside the martial arts gate have rushed to the Daodaosheng Gate located outside the palace of Yangxin, but as always, there are still people in the twilight, everyone is not allowed to enter, at this time the rain is much lighter, Yun Zizhong, who has been staying at home, has not slept tonight, and finally came to the palace to inquire in person, just came in and heard the bells and drums ringing in unison, at this time Yun Lingzhi waved at him and said: "Ninth brother!" ”
"Sixth brother, why are the bells and drums ringing in unison? Could it be that his father ...... him"
Yun Zizhong hurriedly asked, but everyone also looked confused, but seeing the figure of Du Ke coming from a distance, the guards scattered one after another, among the people, Yun Zizhong had the highest prestige, even Yun Huaying didn't dare to make a mistake in front of him, first, the two had a grudge, and secondly, he really didn't dare!
Yun Zizhong asked, "Dusk, what the hell is going on?" ”
Twilight knelt down and said, "Emperor Daxing...... Died of ......" (PS: Emperor Daxing, Chinese vocabulary, character title noun, refers to the name of the emperor after his death and before the name was established in the Chinese feudal imperial era, from the "Later Han Shu An Di Ji". )
"What ?!!"
All the princes were shocked, and even Li Zhangyi, who came after hearing the news, was at a loss, and then knelt down together for fear of being charged with a big disrespect, but Yun Zizhong had always talked a lot, and he didn't forget to look around while kneeling, so he said: "Duke, my father's condition only improved yesterday, how could he suddenly die today?!" I don't believe it!! ”
Twilight Ke: "What is there to believe or not believe now, the matter has happened, and I ask the Nine Emperor Princes to mourn the change, not to mention that there is a royal doctor to corroborate it, the emperor has indeed died!" ”
At this time, in the distance, Yun Xingyan pretended to be late, and stepped forward to ask, "Brothers, why are the bells and drums ringing here?!! ”
Seeing that everyone knelt on the ground, Yun Xingyan pretended to hesitate and looked at Du Ke and asked, "Uncle, what are you ......?"
Du Ke: "King Qining, Emperor Daxing has died, this is the death knell ......!" ”
"What !?"
Yun Xingyan pretended to faint, but no one stepped forward to help, only the old eleven Yun Zaiqi got up and dragged him back, and said: "Third brother mourns, my father is gone, we still need to rely on you to preside over the overall situation......
