With the old emperor's questioning, everyone's eyes fell on the crown prince.

The prince subconsciously shuddered, glanced at Wen Changjin beside him, raised his head slightly, and his gaze became firmer.

"Yes, Erchen also thinks so, please abdicate from the throne, Erchen will definitely protect Daliang and be a Ming Jun."

The old emperor raised his head and laughed, this laughter was full of helplessness and disappointment.

Zhou Hengzhen pinched a handful of sweat for the old emperor, he had just detoxified, although there was medicine on top, it was useless to have such emotional ups and downs.

"But it's really my good son, do you know what the identity of this person next to you is?"

With doubts in his eyes, the prince raised his head and looked at the old emperor in confusion, and the old emperor paused slightly and continued:

"It seems that you don't know anything, do you know that he is a remnant of the Wei State of the previous dynasty, they control the Jinwu Sect, and they want to oppose Liang and restore Wei?

Do you know that he and the second child also have a conspiracy like you, and most of the people who appear in the palace today are people from southern Sichuan?

I originally thought that although you are not smart, you are generous and kind, if you hand over the girder to you, you can also treat a few brothers kindly, so as not to let the royal family wither and kill each other, but now I have found out that you are not kind, you are stupid, stupid!

Such a femme fatale easily manipulated you, but you didn't know it, how could I entrust the country of Daliang to you? ”

The prince was stunned, his face was full of panic, he looked at the old emperor, and then at Wen Changjin, and Wen Changjin did not have the panic of being exposed at all, but with a smug smile on his face, he didn't care about the prince's movements.

"Your Majesty is really as discerning as a torch, but now it's too late, what you see outside the Heart Cultivation Hall is only the tip of the iceberg, and the entire capital, whether it is dignitaries or royal relatives, is all controlled by us.

Your Majesty didn't notice that we had been standing here and chatting for so long, and no one had come over to ask, and the forbidden army and guards were all unescorted, haha! ”

Wen Changjin's face was very proud, and the prince stood on one side, and he could see that he was trembling.

The old emperor is a strict father, and he is very harsh on him, he has not had a smiling face since he was a child, and now although he can't stand still when he looks at him, the prince still feels scared.

Seeing Wen Changjin talking to the old emperor like this, he just stared at the old emperor and didn't say a word.

The old emperor laughed.

"Heh, the emperor's relatives are all controlled by you, and you send troops to guard their respective courtyards, which is to control these people?"

The prince shuddered and took a step back, which was completely a subconscious action.

Wen Changjin glanced sideways, looked at the prince's shaking legs, and frowned slightly.

Although the crown prince is easy to handle, he really doesn't look like an emperor, but this is not exactly what he needs.

"No matter how I control it, it's polite to call you Your Majesty now, or hurry up and write an abdication edict, so I can leave a life, if I regret it, you will be in a different place now!"

As he spoke, Wen Changjin raised his hand, and the old emperor stood up straight, let go of Fang Jizhong's support, and did not take a step back.

"There is no need to foreshadow it like this, there is absolutely no abdication edict, don't waste your words, let me see your preparations!"

Wen Changjin didn't seem surprised by this answer, he just lowered his head and smiled.

Zhou Heng's eyes were good, and he suddenly found that in the last row, several archers were already standing on the shoulders of the people in the front row, aiming directly at the old emperor.

This battle is going to be done directly, but where is the arrangement that the old emperor said?

It's not like it, let the old emperor face it alone, right?

Zhou Heng paused for a few seconds, took two steps forward, stretched out his arm, blocked in front of the old emperor, and waved his hand towards Pang Qiyi.

"Father-in-law Fang and Pang Qi take His Majesty in and take shelter, quick!"

The old emperor was very surprised when he saw Zhou Heng's actions, this Zhou Heng was a little slippery head, he knew how to protect himself better than him, an old fox, and never put himself in danger.

There was a dead end in front of him, there were no reinforcements, although he gave him a promise, but no one showed up at all, and he was able to do this, which really surprised the old emperor.

Wen Changjin narrowed his eyes, snorted coldly, and looked at Zhou Heng's gaze, with ruthlessness and viciousness!

"Good loyal courtier, it is you who have ruined my good deeds several times, and the fate of the Heavenly Evil Lone Star has not been able to kill you, since you want to be buried with you, let's go together, release the arrows!"

As Wen Changjin roared, his arm immediately slipped off, and Zhou Heng closed his eyes and secretly said in his heart, it's over!

However, after a pause for a few seconds, he didn't feel any pain.

Zhou Heng hurriedly opened his eyes, and at the same time, those archers in the farthest distance fell one by one, followed by the rebels in the back row, and dozens of them fell in a moment.

Even if it was a well-trained soldier, it was a mess when he saw this battle, Wen Changjin suddenly found a problem, looked back, but found nothing.

He suddenly became alert, and waved his hand at the person behind him, at this time, for the sake of safety, other is useless, as soon as the old emperor dies, it is logical for the crown prince to succeed to the throne.

"Rush!"

With such an action, everyone behind him raised their blades and rushed up towards the position of the steps.

Just as they were about to reach the bottom of the steps, on both sides of the Heart Cultivation Palace, there were some generals in silver helmets and silver armor who appeared out of nowhere, instantly blocking the way of these people.

With such a sudden appearance, Wen Changjin's eyes widened, and two words popped up in his heart, not good!

But the matter has come to this point, there is no way back, and he kicked at the prince and yelled viciously.

"If the Dog Emperor doesn't die, just wait for the Prince's Mansion and our Wen family to raid the family and exterminate the clan, what is the Prince waiting for?!"

When the prince heard this, he instantly understood that he was going to make a contribution at this time, so he took out a knife out of nowhere and rushed directly up the steps.

The others are rebels, Wen Changjin may be a criminal minister who plots rebellion, but after all, the prince is the son of the old emperor, and no one dares to hurt him without giving a killing order.

But just as he was running up two steps, a person walked out of the generals in silver helmets and silver armor, raised his knife and directly pressed it against the prince's neck, and then a few changes under his feet, instantly picked up the prince, and twisted his hand behind him.

The prince bared his teeth and cried out in pain, and the knife in his hand fell to the ground.

"Ah, it hurts, it hurts, you let go of this palace, let go! Hongu is the crown prince! ”

It's good that I didn't shout this, but after shouting, I was kicked in the back and sat directly on the ground.

"Brute, you can do such a rebellious thing as killing your father, I will kill you for the imperial brother today, and no one will say a word!"

As soon as he heard this, the prince was already a little dumbfounded, this sound of the imperial brother made him completely confused, and his hand hurt as if it was about to be broken, but there was a knife on his neck, and all his voices stopped abruptly.

Wen Changjin shuddered, the most clear thing here is him, this person is wearing a red cloak outside the silver armor, standing in a group of soldiers and generals are particularly conspicuous, looking up at this person's face, you can see the shadow of the five-point emperor.

Wen Changjin's breath stagnated, this person ...... This person turned out to be King Ning?

King Ning was stationed in Datong, how could he appear in the palace, how could this be possible, at that time, people were mobilized, and they deliberately let people hide their whereabouts, especially not from the west road, just for fear of alarming Datong.

"King Ning?"

At this time, Zhou Heng had been squeezed to the door of the Heart Cultivation Palace, and there were silver-armored soldiers in front of him, blocking it tightly, and he couldn't see anything, but when he heard the sound of speaking, Zhou Heng snorted and turned his head to look at the old emperor.

The old emperor had a smile on his face, and the corners of his lips rose, as if he was very satisfied with Zhou Heng's expression, after all, the little fox was fooled once, and it was still very rewarding.

"Don't look at me like this, my brothers are fighting in battle, father and son soldiers, there are people in the court who rebel, do you want me to wait for death, and naturally let my fifth brother come back to save me."

Zhou Heng blinked, he couldn't say a word, this battle was not planned in a day or two, but he didn't know at all, he was still jumping around here, it was really like a clown jumping off the beam.

But now is not the time to chat, Zhou Heng took a step back, stood on the threshold, and regardless of the rules, he stretched his head and looked outside.

Fang Jizhong wanted to shoot Zhou Heng, but was stopped by the old emperor.

There are more and more Datong troops in silver armor and silver armor in front, far outnumbering the rebels, one by one holding repeating crossbow arrows in their hands, aiming at the rebels.

King Ning took the crown prince and took two steps back to look at the old emperor.

"Your Majesty, are the rebels killed!"

The old emperor waved his hand, and his face flashed fiercely.

"Kill, don't leave a single one!"

King Ning threw the prince in his hand to the ground, and several soldiers stepped forward and directly tied up the prince and handed it over to you a little eunuch to take care of, King Ning raised the knife in his hand this time.

"Kill this king!"

With the exit of the killing word, the crossbow arrows were fired in an instant, and the forbidden soldiers who were surrounded in the middle fell to the ground one after another, and several dead soldiers dragged Wen Changjin towards a corner by the palace wall.

King Ning showed a smile on his lips, and rushed over with a knife, the manhole cover by the palace wall had been opened, and King Ning roared.

"Wen Changjin, do you want to escape from the secret passage? Don't you want to think about how we ended up in the palace? ”

Wen Changjin was just about to go down, but he was stopped by this roar, he quickly got up, and the dead soldiers around him fell again.

Becoming the king and defeating the king, these rebels have already dispersed their morale, and naturally they have no ability to resist, even if someone wants to break out of the encirclement, they will be shot and killed after just two steps.

King Ning waved his hand, the crossbow arrow stopped shooting, even if Wen Changjin was well protected, he was still hit by an arrow in his arm, and the dead soldiers around him were also colored, he knew that the general trend had gone, but he was very unwilling.

"This secret passage was left by the king of Wei in the previous dynasty, after all, this secret passage has never been used, how do you know?"

King Ning snorted, and the sound was like a bell.

"The previous dynasty has been destroyed for a hundred years, and the national strength of the Great Liang has far exceeded that of the Wei period in the past hundred years.

Do you think that controlling a few participating forces of the Golden Crow Sect and co-opting the second prince to hold the crown prince hostage can restore the Wei State, it is just wishful thinking!

As for this underground secret passage, all of them have been controlled by us, and on the secret passage you are coming to, the medicinal powder that has been sprinkled to disperse the power, although you are not a top master, but you still know some kung fu to fly the eaves and walk the wall, why don't you try it? ”

Wen Changjin shook his body inadvertently, and glanced at the dead soldiers on his side, these are the people he is most close to, he didn't think seriously about the crisis just now, and now when he thinks about it, everyone is indeed powerless to fight back.

He even tried to use his internal force, there was a cramping pain in his abdomen, he knelt directly on one knee, all the strength in his body was dissipated, and it was difficult to stand alone, so he raised his head and looked at King Ning.

"Despicable, you actually use poison!"

King Ning smiled, "The word despicable, only you are worthy of the people present, come and throw fire oil!" ”

With the order, Zhou Heng saw a black shadow carrying something lit in his hand, and threw it directly under the manhole cover with a swish.

With a loud bang, he felt that the palace under his feet trembled, but Zhou Heng understood that this was not something else, it was the fire oil bomb developed by himself, and it was estimated that the entire underground secret passage had already been sprinkled with Lin powder or fire oil and the like, so the secret passage was completely destroyed.

Those dead soldiers wanted to protect Wen Changjin from leaving, but anyone would be shot if they ran up, Wen Changjin knew that he couldn't run away today, so he carried a knife and put it on his neck.

"Heaven is going to kill me, but Emperor Dog, don't be too happy, unless you kill all the eunuchs and maids in this palace and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, otherwise the people of the Golden Crow Sect will avenge me."

Zhou Heng took a sip, this thing is really shameless, at this time, he still wants to be a hero, others don't know that he knows very well that the royal family of the previous dynasty has been destroyed by him, and the Golden Crow Sect was also robbed and controlled by him, he is just occupying the magpie's nest, what revenge?

Zhou Heng squeezed to the front of the steps, and the old emperor also walked over together, but his footsteps did not stop, and he walked directly down the steps of the Heart Cultivation Palace, and he stood ten steps away from Wen Changjin.

"Don't worry, Liu Chengjie has already taken the first step on the Huangquan Road, and the poison on my body has also been resolved, as for your family and relatives, it won't take a few days to follow you to Huangquan, as for the people of the Golden Crow Sect, if you don't bewitch me, I still treat them as the people of Daliang."

Wen Changjin raised his head and smiled, very sad, maybe Liu Chengjie was his last means of saving his life, hearing that Liu Chengjie was dead, the old emperor didn't bother to pretend at this time, and his face was full of loneliness.

However, his eyes looked past the old emperor and Zhou Heng, and looked at the prince who was tied to the ground behind him, with a bleak smile on his face.

didn't say a word more, just raised the knife and fell down, and killed himself on the spot.

The dead soldiers behind him all fell to their knees, gritting the poison in their teeth one after another, and died of pain one by one.

In front of the entire Heart Cultivation Palace, it was very miserable, and there were corpses of forbidden soldiers with white cloths, and King Ning walked in front of the old emperor and knelt on one knee.

"Brother courtier, meet Your Majesty!"

The old emperor stretched out his hand to pull King Ning up, his face was very moved, and he didn't talk nonsense but patted King Ning's arm hard.

"There are still remnants in the capital that need to be disposed of, after dealing with it, hurry up and see the queen mother, she has been talking about you lately."

King Ning nodded, stood up and arched his hand and said:

"In accordance with the order, the ministers are now going to deal with the remaining rebels in the city and rescue all the ministers."

Speaking of this, Fang Jizhong hurried forward.

"Your Majesty, the people involved this time, the old slave also asked the factory guards to arrest them immediately."

The old emperor waved his hand, "You all go, just leave someone here to clean up, and Zhou Heng can stay with me." ”

King Ning and Fang Jizhong led people away, and in an instant, there was a corpse left in the entire courtyard, as well as dozens of little eunuchs and guards, Zhou Heng walked to the old emperor, looked at his left and right hands, and didn't know which one to stretch out to help the old emperor.

"Your Majesty, there is a heavy smell of blood here, why don't we go in or let the guards inspect it?"
