Chapter 284: The Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada, and the Yellow Sparrow Follows!
Looking up, I saw a pair of soldiers wearing light armor and long swords, and the pairs of soldiers swarmed in, and then lined up in two teams in the inner hall of the Heart Cultivation Palace, with great momentum.
When the team was lined up, the prince, who had already put on the dragon robe, walked in from outside the hall step by step.
The golden dragon robe of the five-clawed golden dragon was worn on the obese prince, but he couldn't find much majesty and nobility.
The emperor, who was lying on the dragon couch, squinted and watched the prince slowly approach, with only indifference in his eyes.
"Father." The crown prince looked at the emperor with a look of determination on his face.
"I have never treated you badly." The emperor spoke very slowly, and if you listened closely, you could hear his hidden anger.
However, the crown prince was in a state of excitement at this time, feeling that the throne was already within reach.
So I didn't hear the emperor's killing intent at all.
"Although my father didn't treat his sons badly, he didn't think about passing on the throne to his sons, right?" When the prince said this, there was a look of resentment in his eyes.
He has been on the throne of the crown prince since he was born, but this prince has been doing it for more than 20 years, and he has been waiting too long.
Wait until he's worn out all his patience.
The emperor slowly closed his eyes, not wanting to see the prince's smug appearance again.
Seeing such a prince will make him think he is stupid, how can he think that such a person is his son in the past twenty years?
After the crown prince saw that the emperor continued to close his eyes and pretend to sleep, and did not take him seriously at all, he clenched his fists fiercely, and his voice raised slightly: "Father still wrote the edict of succession, right?" ”
At this moment, there was another chaotic sound of fighting outside the Heart Cultivation Palace.
The prince frowned slightly, and asked the cronies beside him in a deep voice, "What's going on outside?" ”
The prince's cronies' faces changed slightly, and he hurried out of the palace, but before he could reach the outside of the hall, he was hit by a strong force, and his whole body flew upside down, and he came back and smashed at the prince's feet.
The prince's face changed drastically, and he actively looked at the person who was walking in from outside the Heart Cultivation Palace.
"Is that you?" When he saw the smug smile on the face of the third prince, his heart suddenly sank.
Suddenly realized that tonight's forced palace was like walking into a trap that had already been laid.
He miscalculated.
"Brother Prince, isn't he disappointed?" The third prince looked at the prince whose face had changed greatly, and his heart was refreshed.
I always feel that the depression that has been pent-up over the years is relieved at this moment.
And he stopped the prince's forced palace today and saved his father, which is a great achievement!
The third prince didn't expect that the crown prince would be stupid one day, and he felt that he was the crown prince except himself.
Now that the crown prince has made a big mistake, and he has behaved well, isn't it that the throne is about to fall on his head?
"My father and sons are too late to save me, and I ask my father to forgive me." Although it was a confession, the tone was triumphant.
In this way, the emperor, who was originally lying on the dragon couch and was a little surprised by the arrival of the third prince, twisted his eyebrows slightly.
Could it be that the third child also thinks that this position must be his?
Thinking of Yan Yan at night, I felt a little dislike for the three princes in my heart.
At this time, the crown prince's people have been controlled, and the entire palace can be explained that the faces are all the people of the three princes.
Where could he not be upset?
The overly proud third prince faced the disrespect in his heart when he was lying on the bed and "couldn't move", and he unconsciously revealed his stuffing.
Because he feels that in the entire palace, he has the most right to speak.
If the crown prince he learned from took a step forward, wouldn't the throne be within reach?
Why do you have to wait for your father to give him what you can fight for?
This thought was like a demon in his heart, constantly gnawing at his heart.
The third prince even thought that if he didn't save him in time this time, his father would definitely be killed by the prince with wolf ambitions, so this throne was owed to him by his father and should be given to him.
Thinking about it this way, he is at ease with the claim for the throne.
The third prince glanced at the prince who was controlled and free, a contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and then looked at the emperor: "Father, it's better to choose a day than to hit the sun, and your health is not very good, or you will promulgate the holy decree today!" ”
He said it for granted.
saw that the emperor was looking at him with inquiring and dissatisfied eyes.
This kind of look made the third prince's heart chuckle for no reason.
However, after seeing the emperor's "immobile" body, his original tension slowly dissipated.
My father is no longer the same as in the past, and now my father is about to die, but he is just a waste person, what are you afraid of?
The third prince, who secretly blamed himself for thinking too much, began to blatantly persecute the emperor: "Father, now the son-in-law asks you to promulgate the holy decree, which is a sign of respect for you, in fact, if you don't promulgate it yourself, the son-in-law can do it for you." ”
These words finally made the emperor angry.
This has been arranged for him for a long time, he is the emperor, and the whole country is his, he can give it to whoever he wants? When will it be someone else's turn to grab it?
It can be said that the three princes have touched the emperor's scales.
Originally, he still had some father-son affection for the three princes, but today, the former prince "forced the palace" and the third prince also did the same thing as the prince.
The prince is not his biological son, and the emperor feels that it is understandable that he was forced into the palace by the prince.
But the third prince did the same thing as an outsider, which is unforgivable, and the third prince also drugged him before.
The little affection that only maintains the blood relationship is like a tight string in the emperor's heart at this moment, and the family affection line is broken.
"Someone!" The emperor slowly got up and stood up slowly in everyone's stunned eyes.
He took a steady step, his face brewing with stormy emotions, and the majestic momentum made the people in the audience tremble.
Where is this the behavior of a terminally ill person?
The prince was stunned!
The third prince was dumbfounded!
In particular, the royal guards dressed in black poured into the Heart Cultivation Palace, as well as the generals who were originally following him, also put away the swords in their hands and stood behind the emperor and knelt on the ground together.
One after another, a junior general stepped forward to return to the emperor and report his official position and name.
Until now, both the crown prince and the third prince have understood one thing, the praying mantis catches cicadas, and the yellow finch is behind!
And that yellow finch is the emperor!
The third prince's face was almost gray, he didn't expect that he was confused for a while, and he would lift a stone and hit himself in the foot.
He thought: If he was a little more respectful just now and didn't show so eagerness, would there be room for reversal between his father and him?
The crown prince looked at the third prince sarcastically, and suddenly felt a little happy in his heart, because he had been seeking for so many years, although he couldn't get it, he also knew that the third prince couldn't get it either.
The emperor looked coldly at the crown prince and the third prince in front of him.
Then he announced in a deep voice: "In fact, my most desirable heir is someone else, and I have a prince who has not disclosed his identity. ”
What, what?
This news made everyone present a little stunned.
Although they could understand every word they said at night, why did they get a little confused when they were connected together?
What does it mean that there is another prince?
Is it raised in the people?
But is it reliable for such a prince to inherit the throne?
After all, if you want to be a good emperor, you can't just read two books, you want to be an emperor, but you need to be nurtured from an early age, bascination in the emperor's skills, have a sense of the overall situation, know the emperor and so on......
"Please think twice!"
Some generals knelt in front of the emperor, worried in their hearts, and they could only persuade Cambodia desperately.
"I have made up my mind, you don't have to persuade him to be chosen by me, since he is the dragon and phoenix among everyone, when you see him in the future, you will naturally understand." When the emperor mentioned Yan Yan, a fatherly smile appeared on his face.
In this way, the three princes and the crown prince, who had no results in the camp, seemed to have thousands of poisonous insects living in their hearts, constantly gnawing at their hearts, and this uncomfortable sense of grievance made them crazy.
At this time, they just want to know where a Cheng Biting Gold came out.
Who is this man?
Suddenly, the prince thought of Yan Yan.
When the queen mother once mentioned her life to him, she said that Yan Yan was the prince.
Could it be that the emperor is talking about Yan Yan?
Others thought that Yan Yan was dead, but he who had been sending people to hunt down Yan Yan knew that Yan Yan was not dead, but after several pursuits, Yan Yan did disappear.
The prince's heart was in a mess, she was afraid that the emperor would know the truth that he was not the prince.
Even if he guessed that the person who guessed the emperor's intention was Yan Yan, he didn't dare to say it easily.
Because he was afraid.
I'm afraid that he will be self-defeating, what if this is what the emperor doesn't know? Didn't he say this to remind the emperor to investigate this matter?
The prince, who was holding a hint of luck, clenched his hands tightly and lowered his head, not daring to say anything.
The emperor glanced at the prince lightly, and took in the changing look on the prince's face.
I know in my heart what the prince thinks?
However, the emperor was not interested in explaining it to this fake prince.
Now he is more distressed that Yan Yan is unwilling to take over the position of crown prince.
The emperor was waiting, and only when he nodded would he dare to reveal Yan Yan's true life experience to the world.
"Let's put the prince in prison first!" The emperor's tired soldiers waved their hands.
Prison!
The emperor's decision surprised everyone.
Especially the third prince, his heart trembled, and his legs were weak.
He didn't know the true identity of the crown prince, so when he saw that the emperor's heart was so ruthless, he was very worried that he would have such an end.
At this moment, I can't help but feel a little resentful of Feng Lingyu.
This wasn't Feng Lingyu's instigation, how could he have acted tonight?
If he hadn't acted tonight, he wouldn't have wanted to go any further in front of his father!
It's a wrong step, a wrong step.
However, the third prince felt that all the fault was that he listened to Feng Lingyu's words.
The three princes, who were frightened and worried and ended up squatting in the heavenly prison like the crown prince, suddenly heard the emperor's order: "Press the three princes back to the Three Princes' Mansion, and the three princes are not allowed to enter and leave the Three Princes' Mansion until this order is given." ”
This is house arrest.
The third prince's expression was relieved, and the result was not as bad as he imagined.
The prince was stunned.
He didn't expect the emperor to treat them differently.
He went to the prison, but the third child was just confined.
At this time, all the luck in the prince's heart suddenly collapsed.
He doesn't know where he is, but the emperor knows.
Knowing that he doesn't have royal blood in him.
That's why they are treated differently.
A look of revenge flashed in the eyes of the desolate prince in his heart, and when he was escorted down and passed by the third prince, he said in a very low voice: "I know who the biological son my father said is, it is Yan Yan, he is not dead." ”
