Chapter 616: Cold-Blooded Man
He's dead! It's really dead!
The second prince's heart hurt as if he had been pricked by a needle, and it was his father who died in front of his eyes after all. But the sting in his heart soon disappeared, and he couldn't be blamed for all this, only his father was too partial.
But then he became excited, more and more excited, he finally became the emperor of the Great Zhou!
"Your Royal Highness, Fangshan is full of our men and horses, General Lin is in charge of the Beijing camp, the emperor has been in the sky, and the general trend has been decided! Tomorrow, he will summon the ministers into the palace to support His Royal Highness's accession to the throne. Ye Bei said with a smile.
The second prince nodded, looked at the generals behind him and said: "You are all meritorious ministers, this palace will not forget your merits, and when this palace ascends the throne, I will definitely reward you!" ”
Ye Bei said with a smile: "Your Highness, although the general trend has been decided, it is also necessary to take precautions, first, to control the palace and Fangshan, and second, to kill the eldest prince and eliminate the last threat!" ”
The second prince nodded and said: "Tonight, all the soldiers will patrol the palace and Fangshan all night to prevent anyone from colluding, if anyone is found to be sneaky, take it down immediately or kill it directly!" ”
The generals listened to the order, and the second prince hesitated a little and said: "Emperor Bintian has already shaken the imperial court, if the eldest prince is killed again, it may affect the stability of the society." ”
Ye Bei persuaded: "Your Highness's words are wrong, only if you kill the eldest prince will you be completely stable, Your Highness must not have the kindness of a woman!" ”
The second prince shook his head and said, "First imprison the eldest prince and the eldest princess and strictly guard them!" ”
Although the second prince is a cold-blooded person, he has just forced his father to death, and it is inevitable that his heart will be shaken, and it will be difficult for the eldest prince to kill him.
Moreover, he also has to consider his reputation, forcing the emperor to death is already a stain that he will not be able to wash away for the rest of his life, and if he kills his brother again, he will bear two notories. Forcing his father to death is still a last resort, and there is no need to kill the eldest prince.
Because the eldest prince has no foundation in the army, but only a few civilian officials support him, at this time the civilian officials are useless, and only swords and guns are the most powerful.
The two princes were assigned, the generals guarded the palace and inspected Fangshan, the lady concubine was confined in the main hall, and the concubine De took the eunuchs to prepare for the emperor's funeral.
An emergency distress signal was raised in the palace, illuminating most of Fangshan, and all the noble officials on Fangshan understood that there had been a mutiny in Fangshan!
The night was pitch black, and they didn't dare to act rashly because they didn't know the situation, and soon the road in Fangshan was full of patrolling soldiers and horses, looking murderous.
Listening to the movement of the soldiers and horses patrolling outside, all the families huddled in the courtyard, quietly waiting for the dawn, and now the situation is unknown, no one dares to move.
In the courtyard, the eldest prince had long since lost his sleepiness, and sat in the study with a gloomy face, and his guards were nervously patrolling.
"Someone mutinied? It must be the second one! Definitely! Is he crazy! Did he eat the gall of the ambitious leopard? The eldest prince paced back and forth.
"Your Highness, the situation in Fangshan is unclear at this time, do you want to escort His Highness out of Fangshan?" The commander of the guards asked with a solemn face.
The eldest prince's face changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Do you think that the second child can really succeed in the mutiny?" ”
"However, the palace has sent a fireworks signal!" The guards commanded.
The eldest prince shook his head and said, "As long as there is a mutiny, the palace will send out a fireworks signal!" ”
As he was talking, there was a sudden noisy movement outside, and the eldest prince couldn't help but change his face, and the commander of the guards hurriedly said: "Your Highness, the last general will go and have a look!" ”
The eldest princess came with a look on her face, and asked worriedly, "Your Highness, what's going on outside?" ”
The eldest prince was relieved: "Maybe it's a little messy, didn't I let you go to rest?" ”
The eldest princess said worriedly: "Where can the concubines rest?" ”
As he was talking, there was a sudden shout of killing at the gate, obviously the guards in the palace and the people outside were killed, and the eldest prince suddenly changed color.
If it was someone sent by his father, he would never kill him, he chuckled in his heart, and had a bad premonition.
The eldest princess's face was a little pale and said, "Your Highness? ”
The eldest prince stretched out his hand and held her cold little hand, and said with relief: "It's okay, I'm here!" ”
There is no way to hide, and the eldest prince said softly: "You wait here, I'll take a look!" ”
The eldest princess held his hand tightly and said worriedly: "The concubine will accompany His Highness, no matter what happens, the concubine will be by His Highness's side!" ”
Everyone knew that the current situation was not good, and the eldest prince smiled and said: "If you have a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for?" ”
The eldest prince pulled the eldest princess and strode towards the gate, where the battle was raging, there were already many casualties on the ground, and the heavy smell of blood wafted in the wind.
The guards were defeated and outnumbered, and the eldest prince shouted: "Stop! ”
The shouting gradually stopped, and the eldest prince looked at the general who took the lead, and asked in a deep voice, "General Feng, what is going on?" Why did you lead your troops to attack the annex of the main palace? ”
General Feng bowed slightly and said, "Your Highness, the last general is ordered by the second prince to invite His Royal Highness into the palace!" ”
On the orders of the second prince? The eldest prince's face immediately became gloomy, General Feng was obviously a general of the forbidden army, how could he be ordered by the second prince?
Did the second prince really launch a mutiny? Moreover, the mutiny was successful?
How is this possible? The father is not an incompetent and faint king, how could the second child succeed in the mutiny so easily?
However, the facts before him do not allow him to refute.
The eldest prince's face changed greatly: "What about the emperor?" What about the emperor? ”
General Feng opened his mouth and did not answer directly, but said in a deep voice: "Please Your Highness don't embarrass the last general, Your Highness, Your Royal Highness the Princess, please!" ”
Now that his guards had suffered heavy losses, it was impossible for him to leave Fangshan even if he wanted to, so the eldest prince and the eldest princess boarded the carriage and were escorted to the palace.
On the carriage, the eldest princess kept holding the eldest prince's hand tightly, and said nervously: "Your Highness, what should we do?" ”
The eldest prince said in a low voice: "The second child should be under house arrest for us, if he wanted to do it, he would have done it a long time ago." Now I don't know what happened to my father, whether he was under house arrest by the second child or ......"
The eldest princess said in a trembling voice: "Second Highness, how dare you, dare to ......"
The eldest prince said gloomily: "He dared to mutiny and rebel, what else would he not dare?" The second child has always been cold-blooded, and his heart is as hard as a stone! ”
After finishing speaking, there was a faint look of grief on the face of the eldest prince, he knew that the emperor was likely to be more than lucky, he had been fighting for the prince for so many years, and he had never had the idea of rebellion.
Although he knew that the second child was ruthless and hard-hearted, he didn't expect that the second child would dare to mutiny, kill the king and kill his father, and make such a big rebellious act!
I didn't expect that the second mutiny would be successful! Maybe my father never thought that the second child would be so ruthless and cold-blooded!
