Chapter 197: Brothers turn against each other, and they can't turn back

(Maopu Chinese) Leave the royal mansion.

In the middle of the night, the king was woken up by his henchmen.

When the king opened his eyes, a cold light seemed to flash in the darkness.

He knew that there was no urgency, and it was impossible for his henchmen to wake him up so late.

So I didn't lose my temper and got up and dressed.

Yan Yan, who was sleeping inside, was awakened, opened her eyes in a daze, raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, and asked vaguely, "Why is it so late, has something happened?" ”

looked confused and coquettish, and did not look like waking up.

After sorting out his clothes, he kissed her lightly on the forehead, pressed her body down and lay on the bed, covered her with the quilt, and said in a low voice: "I'll go and see what's going on, you go back to sleep." ”

"Oh." Yan Yan answered, lay down on the bed obediently, closed her eyes and continued to sleep.

Liwang looked at her quiet sleeping face, his heart softened, and he put a kiss on her forehead, and then got up to leave.

"Go to the room." Seeing Zhang Jun waiting at the door, he left Wang and said in a deep voice.

The two left together.

Inside the house, listening to the footsteps outside the door, Yan Yan, who was originally quiet and closed her eyes, slowly opened her eyes.

There is no coquettishness in the eyes, no confusion, only calmness and indifference.

Looking at the confined door, Yan Yan's eyes flashed with a touch of complexity, and she immediately became firm.

She is not a person with a deep personality, and the huge family blood feud weighs her down and she is almost out of breath.

As early as when she knew the truth of the matter, she thought about assassinating the king regardless of it, avenging her family, no matter whether she succeeded or failed, she only wanted to have a clear conscience, and she was not afraid to go to the underworld even if she died.

But was stopped by Yun Xiangrong.

In Yun Xiangrong's words, if you want to take revenge, you must strike a blow, otherwise you don't give your life in vain.

She listened to Yun Xiangrong, in front of the king, forgetting all the hatred, only thinking about the feelings she had for him, the love for him, in countless nights, when they were dying and lingering, she would be in a trance, not knowing what day it was.

But whenever she remembered what he had done to her family, she was in pain, and she couldn't help it.

This pain is engraved in the bones, and it cannot be pulled out or erased.

From that moment on, she understood that she and he could no longer be.

The family feud between them has become a moat, either you die or I die.

She had been waiting for an opportunity, and she knew that today, this opportunity had come.

Fang, Zhang Jun stopped his subordinates from the people sent out by the emperor, and told the king about the seizure of the secret letter, and then presented the secret letter.

After reading the two letters with a blank face, the king was silent.

Two letters, one for Prime Minister Yunxuan, didn't mention anything, just summoned him to the palace to discuss countermeasures.

Another letter was to ask Sun Yi to enter the palace quickly and treat the emperor.

That shows that the things he made people do in the medicine that the emperor drank were known to the emperor.

Now that the drugging has been discovered, what he did before must have also been discovered.

Neither of these two things is a good thing for the king.

The king was silent.

From the moment he got the fire Qi away, he began to lay everything out.

Attacking the emperor is a last resort, and it is also, I really want to do it in my heart.

At the beginning, his mother concubine was burned to death in her own palace because of the emperor's ignorance.

Afterwards, the emperor did not react at all.

It doesn't even matter whether he lives or dies.

From childhood to adulthood, no matter how he was bullied by King Xiang and the crown prince, he never intervened, pretending not to hear or see, but if the emperor has the slightest father-son affection for him, he will not compromise and endure the humiliation until now.

Later, with the help of Huo Chen, he finally defeated King Xiang and the crown prince, but because of a wrong step, it evolved into a road of no return with no way out.

In his life, he didn't have any apologies for attacking the emperor, and the only thing he didn't want was to meet Huo Chen.

But when he found out that the emperor and Huo Chen were secretly supporting Xiao Qi, he understood that there was no room between them, whether he wanted it or not, whether he wanted it or not, he could only do this.

He won't sit still, and neither will Huo Chen, they have no way out.

Now that the emperor has finally discovered his move, he has no way to wait for the emperor to be in the right place after he dies, so he can only carry out the final decisive battle.

"Let's go, follow this king into the palace." Leaving the king, he went to the house to change into official clothes and took Zhang Jun into the palace together.

Palace.

Because he was worried that the letter sent out would be stopped, the emperor specially sent Gonggong De out of the palace to take Yun Xuan and Sun Yi into the palace in person.

What is going on in secret, the people who leave the king can be stopped unconsciously, but when they suddenly come to the light, the people who leave the king are a little hesitant, so they can only let Gonggong De take people into the palace.

"Doctor Sun, please show the emperor quickly." Leading Sun Yi and Yun Xuan into the door, Father-in-law De hurriedly said.

Sun Yi was also unambiguous, and sat directly on the stool next to the bed, stretching out his hand to check the emperor's pulse.

The emperor originally closed his eyes and took a nap, but at this moment he slowly opened them, and his eyes were full of thick turbidity.

He didn't care how Sun Yi diagnosed his pulse, but looked at Yun Xuan and said, "Lu Xiaodezi told you everything." "The voice was a little weak.

He did not directly say anything about leaving the king in his letter, so as to prevent being robbed by others, and also to leave room after being robbed.

But Gonggong De knew everything, and the emperor told him to make it clear on the road, so he naturally did not dare to disobey the holy order.

Yun Xuan bowed his head and said, "Gonggong De said, I really didn't expect that His Royal Highness Li Wang would be so ambitious, why ...... this?"

Yun Xuan sighed lightly, looking a little regretful.

It is said that now Liwang is already the most outstanding child by the emperor's side, as long as he follows the rules, the throne is his.

But he did these things, which really makes people sigh.

If you want to talk about leaving the king, although Yun Xuan doesn't know everything, he also knows a lot under the information of Yun Qing and Huo Chen, and he also understands that the change of leaving the king is not a matter of now, but earlier, the situation is pressing, and it is a last resort.

It can only be said that the world makes people.

The emperor nodded, and was about to say something, but Sun Yi had already put down his hand to diagnose the pulse, and his face was not very good-looking.

"If Dr. Sun has something to say, I can stand it." The emperor's heart sank and he said in a low voice.

"Poison is like bone marrow, terminally ill, and the medicine is ineffective." Sun Yi said word by word.

"Doctor Sun, you ......" The German father-in-law on the side looked anxious, this is a big crime against the emperor.

But Sun Yi has always been straightforward, especially in his condition, and there will be no lies.

Perhaps knowing that he was going to die, the emperor was not angry, and asked calmly: "How much time do I have left?" How can Dr. Sun let me live a few more days? ”

He still needs a few more days to arrange the aftermath of the matter.

Otherwise, Xiao Qi will not be able to fight the king.

Handed over the country to the unscrupulous Liwang, he would rather hand it over to Xiao Qi, whom he has always loved!

Sun Yi said lightly: "If you can listen to the grass people's words, take care of yourself, and live for another half a year, it is not a problem, but the emperor is too worried now, and he may ...... at any time If you want to prolong your life, it's not impossible. ”

"There is a pill in the hands of the grass people, the seven-day death pill, but if you take it, you will be the same as an ordinary person within seven days, and after seven days, you will definitely bleed to death from the seven orifices."

After Sun Yi finished speaking, he was silent and did not speak again.

There was silence in the hall, and Sun Yi's words pressed on everyone's hearts like a boulder.

"Did Dr. Sun bring this medicine?" The emperor spoke slowly, obviously having made a decision.

"The Emperor...... I can't help it, the emperor ......" Duke De suddenly knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing.

Sun Yi was expressionless and said, "This herb is not brought by the people, but as long as there are herbs, it is okay to boil a bowl of medicinal soup instead of pills." It just takes time. ”

"Xiao Dezi, you personally lead Dr. Sun to the Tai Hospital to get medicinal materials." The emperor said to Gonggong De.

Xiao Dezi kept kowtowing, looking sad.

Although it is said that accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, but the emperor is also very good to him, and he has been with him for many years, how can he bear to watch the decline of the emperor's generation of kings to this point.

"It's too late, go." The emperor snorted coldly.

It's been so long since the dark guard came back to recover his life, and it seems that there has been an accident, and there is not much time left for him.

"Yes, the minions obey." Gonggong De gritted his teeth and took Sun Yi out of the dormitory.

After they left, the emperor said to Yun Xuan: "Let's start, I dictate, you write." ”

As early as when Gonggong De left the palace to invite Yun Xuan, he had already prepared the holy decree, pen and ink, and jade seal.

He wants to pave the way for Xiao Qi, and for him to be righteous, the holy decree is indispensable.

Yun Xuan nodded in understanding.

Dictated by the emperor and written by Yun Xiang, the holy decree of succession was finally completed.

The emperor personally stamped the seal.

"You put away the holy decree and leave the palace immediately, if that rebel is really rebellious, wait for Huo Chen to come back, and help the little seven." The emperor said.

Yun Xuan nodded, and after collecting the holy decree, he turned around and walked out.

He knew that now they were struggling against time, and once they were reacted to by the king, he would not be able to leave, and all his plans would come to naught.

However, as it turned out, it was too late.

He just walked to the door and saw the oncoming King Li, and behind him, he was followed by Sun Yi, Gonggong De, and ...... Little Seven.

Yun Xuan felt a sigh in his heart, and was forced to retreat.

The emperor in the house was coughing, and when he saw Yun Xuan coming in again, he was about to speak, and saw the king of Li.

The coughing was interrupted, as if someone had choked his throat, and he stared at the king with wide eyes.

The figures of Sun Yi and others appeared one after another, but when Xiao Qi's figure fell into his eyes, the emperor could no longer control the anger in his heart.

"Rebel, what are you going to do here?" The emperor shouted angrily.

"What to do? Didn't my father already know? Liwang smiled leisurely, his expression calm.

His attitude made the emperor's eyes flicker.

"Didn't my father receive the letter, know what I did, and summoned Prime Minister Yun Cheng into the palace overnight to discuss what to do with me? As for the rebel son, I can't afford this name, so I ask my father to show mercy. Liwang said lightly.

Xiao Qi, who was standing on the side, was a little angry, "Fourth brother, how can you do such a rebellious thing, my father is so good to us, how can you poison him, and now you have to force the palace!" ”

On the way here, Xiao Qi learned from Gonggong De about the poisoning of the emperor by the king, and questioned angrily.

Liwang's face suddenly turned cold, and he said sharply: "He is good to you, not to me." ”

The cold look on his face made Xiao Qi stunned.

"Since I was a child, how could he have been kind to me? Let me be bullied by the crown prince and King Xiang, if I hadn't been cautious enough, if I hadn't been cautious, if I hadn't deliberately made a debauchery appearance, I would have died a thousand and eight hundred times. ”

"You think he is good, he is really good to you, so good that he holds you up, everything follows you and spoils you. But what about me? When did he care about me at all? He is a father to you, and to me, he is nothing. ”

The cold words of the king resounded in the hall.

Xiao Qi's face was a little complicated, knowing that what King Liwang said was true, he opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything.

Although he had already begun to prepare in case he was killed by the king, this change was too sudden, and he was caught off guard, and he didn't even have time to mobilize his men.

There is no chance to send a letter to Huo Chen, who has left Beijing to suppress bandits.

A faint trace of guilt flashed in the emperor's eyes, and he didn't argue for himself, and a gentle cough resounded in the hall.

What the king said was right, not wrong, he really didn't want to see the king before, so he deliberately ignored it, but later King Xiang and the prince fell one after another, and the king became the most outstanding child in his eyes, so he also forgot about the past, and relied on a lot, but now he is suffering from the consequences.

"Where does Yun Xiangye want to go? Out of the palace? The father summoned the prime minister into the palace overnight, presumably there must be something important, why was he in a hurry and wanted to leave? Liwang smiled faintly, his eyes fell on the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table that had not been put away, and asked knowingly.

The jade seal is very important, and the emperor naturally put it away as soon as it is used up, but with the wisdom of the king, how could he not know what the emperor and Yun Xuan had done.

"My father is not in good health, how about not passing on the throne to the emperor by decree? Now that many ministers in the court have a very good evaluation of their sons, it is better for the father to abdicate early and retire for the rest of his life, than to be busy with political affairs with his sick body. The king smiled harmlessly.

"You rebel, wolf ambition, don't think that I will pass the throne to you, come and escort." The emperor was furious, although he knew that it was useless, he still shouted for people to come and escort him.

But there was silence outside, and it was clear that his people had been controlled by the people who had left the king.

"Father, the situation is not up to anyone now, my father has been the king for many years, can't you still see it?" Liwang smiled lightly.

He really doesn't care about the emperor's life or death, but before the emperor dies, he must get the edict of succession, otherwise the emperor will die strangely, even if he has a high voice and ascends the throne as the emperor, there will be a lot of trouble.

"Without my will, you are wearing a dragon robe, and you are not a real emperor, and your name is not right." The emperor snorted coldly and said sarcastically.

Li Wang smiled lightly, put his hand back, and Zhang Jun directly put a holy hand on him.

"The Holy Decree is ready, and my father only needs to cover the jade seal, so please ask my father to take out the jade seal." Li Wang Wen smiled lazily, and there didn't seem to be the slightest malice.

Everyone in the audience didn't expect him to be prepared, and even the holy decree was ready, and they all looked at him in surprise.

Especially Xiao Qi.

He had a very good relationship with King Li, and when he saw King Liwang like this, the sadness in his heart was the greatest.

The emperor naturally refused to hand over the jade seal, and at the time of the stalemate, a subordinate suddenly broke in from outside, and said hurriedly: "Lord, the king of Zhennan has surrounded the capital with a large army, and he is at the gate of the city, saying that he wants to see you." ”

Liwang looked slightly stunned.

Huo Chen only led the troops to the expedition yesterday, and it was precisely because he knew this that he dared to decisively bring people into the palace, and took advantage of his absence to decisively take the throne.

But at this moment, he said that he was outside the city, which can only show that he did not leave at all, and leaving was just an illusion to show him, and he had already been defensive of himself!

Although King Li's heart knew that the two brothers had already separated from each other, he still felt a pain in his heart when he really faced such a scene.

pursing his lips, he left Wang for a while and said lightly: "Take them, let's go to the city gate." ”

At the head of the city gate, the king stood in front of him, looking down on the army below.

At the front is Huo Chen.

"Liwang, you let the emperor go, take the initiative to admit your mistakes, I will look at my brother's love for many years, and plead with the emperor for you, you have no chance of winning, don't be obsessed." Huo Chen used his internal strength and shouted.

The fire was extinguished, and the face of the king was particularly obscure in the firelight, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Achen, I'm not obsessed, I'm just ...... There's no going back. Liwang's voice remembered faintly, calm and indifferent.

Huo Chen heard his deep sadness.

There is no turning back from the king, from the moment he tried to exchange Jiang Guogong for the emperor's trust, get Jiang Guogong's wealth, and get Jiang Guogong out of the prison, he couldn't turn back.

And then accidentally killed Han Mi and cooperated with Huo Qi, which has doomed his path to deviate from the original trajectory, and any one of them is a capital crime.

As he said, he couldn't go back.

Later, it was calculated that Prince Yu's mansion was destroyed, just to be able to get Yan Yan, and at that time, he was already mad.

Now that I go back and think about it, I can only feel sorry for the king's heart.

Even himself...... I don't recognize myself anymore.

Huo Chen was indifferent, understanding that what he said was true, his eyes flashed, and he took a deep breath: "Anything can be solved, don't make mistakes again and again." ”

King Li shook his head and said slowly: "Achen, I don't regret it, the road of the emperor is destined to be lonely, the face is full of thorns, I am not afraid, I do not regret it, I have never been afraid of the sea of corpses and blood." The only thing I'm afraid of is the current scene, you and my brothers, there is no way back but to ...... Rat. ”

Liwang's gaze looked complicated.

If he cares most about this lonely imperial road, it is the brotherhood with Huo Chen.

When he had nothing, Huo Chen was by his side to help him and never give up, which he always remembered. So even if he had to take another path of no return later, he still avoided hurting Huo Chen, except for that last resort, killing Han Mi.

But Han Mi can't die if he doesn't die, otherwise, he will be exposed in advance, and he will die.

People are selfish, and no one wants to die by themselves.

Li Wang knew that he was now riding a tiger, that is, the defeat was decided, and he could only move forward, and there was no way back.

Huo Chen was silent for a long time before he spoke: "Liwang, if you let go of Huang Xiaoqi and the prime minister, the emperor will definitely spare you from death in the face of your precipice." ”

The king did not speak, because he knew that it was impossible, and if he had not poisoned the emperor, there would still be room for everything to turn around, and now, there was no hope.

But he is not a dead person, and said slowly: "It's not impossible for me to release the emperor, you lead the army back thirty miles, and after I take people away, I will naturally release them." ”

The king is ready to die.

He knew in his heart that if the rebellion could be handled properly, even if the minister had doubts after ascending the throne, he should not be afraid, after all, the winner is king.

But now, Huo Chen is coming to the city with a large army, he has already lost, even if he sits on the throne, he will be driven back to King Qin's various armies to get rid of it, for the sake of today, he can only take people away first, and then think about what to do in the future.

What he was worried about, Huo Chen also understood.

After a moment of silence, Huo Chen said loudly: "I can make the decision to let you leave with the hostages, but the premise is that you must release someone first to show your sincerity." ”

There are many people who leave the king's hands, and each of them is a pivotal figure for Qiguo and Huo Chen.

Huang, Xiaoqi, Yun Xuan, Sun Yi, everyone is very important.

Hearing Huo Chen say this, the emperor's lips moved, and he didn't open his mouth to stop it, now it can only be like this, otherwise Huo Chen will capture the capital, and they will become corpses first.

"Yes, you can." After a while, he said lightly.

His gaze turned, and Liwang's gaze finally fell on Xiao Qi's body.

"Let go of the Seventh Highness." Liwang said lightly.

Xiao Qi was sent out of the city by his subordinates and sent to Huo Chen's side.

"Now, you retreat thirty miles." Liwang said lightly.

Huo Chen did not hesitate, and directly led the men and horses back.

Seeing the soldiers and horses retreating, the king ordered people to guard the city gate, while he ordered people to press the emperor and others and returned to the palace.

In the street, which was only one alley away from the palace, many black-clothed people suddenly rushed out and attacked the people who left the king.

It was the Hidden Wing Army Horse that Huo Chen left in the city to deal with.

The people of the Hidden Wing Army are all strong in martial arts, and they have been prepared for a long time, and their purpose this time is not to kill the enemy, but to save people and leave the king, they were caught off guard.

They took away the only life talisman in their hand.

Leaving people to block, the other part of the people quickly took the emperor, Yun Xiang and Sun Yi away.

Li Wang looked at the man in black with a pale face and attacked decisively and left neatly.

He planned for a long time, but he was defeated overnight.

"Stop chasing, go back to the palace immediately." Seeing that Zhang Jun was still going to chase, he let out a low shout from the king and rode towards the palace.

When they arrived at the palace, the group hurriedly entered the door.

Now that he can't care about the people and horses who are still at the city gate and palace, Huo Chen must have led the army towards the capital at this moment.

This is exactly the case, as soon as they saved the emperor, the war dragon sent a signal, and Huo Chen directly pressed the army.

The king understood that now they could only leave the tunnel from the palace as soon as possible.

"Come with me, quick." Liwang directly pulled Yan Yan up from the bed, wrapped her in a cloak, and quickly walked out.

"Brother Yan, what's wrong?" Yan Yan asked with a confused expression.
