Artifact World XLIII
"Miss." Du Juan lowered his head and whispered in Sheng Shuyuan's ear: "There are officers and soldiers guarding ahead." ”
Sheng Shuyuan quietly picked up the whip and put it behind his back, "You go and inquire." ”
This is the closest to the capital, which is enough to see that something big is definitely happening in the capital.
"The Emperor Taishang was suddenly bedridden." The cuckoo came back and whispered, "The fourth prince is afraid that the emperor will be in danger, so he will lead his troops to guard." ”
Dangerous?
I think he's the biggest danger.
If it is a normal operation, there is no need to even guard the outside of the city, it must be a bad intention.
But if you think about it, you also know that because the matter of the four princes was messed up, sending Wen Jingxing to turn the tide now, if Wen Jingxing succeeds in building the embankment, then Wen Jingxing will be the prince when he comes back.
Now the mountain road has collapsed, the people inside can't get out, the people outside can't get in, and the flood has blocked it in disguise. Wen Jingxing was trapped inside again, and now was the best opportunity for the four princes to force the palace.
As long as the palace is successful, no matter whether Wen Jingxing comes back or not, he is still the rightful emperor, and Wen Jingxing can only become a subsidiary prince, at most he will be a general or something.
This is forcing the palace!
Sheng Shuyuan immediately stood up and said, "Let's go." ”
But as soon as they walked in front of them, they were stopped, and before those soldiers could interrogate them carefully, a man behind Sheng Shuyuan took out a seal, and those soldiers immediately gave him a place.
Sheng Shuyuan took the opportunity to blend in with their team and enter the city, and secretly looked at the clothes of these people.
The clothing is a very normal daily dress for the people of Yunguo, as if there are no flaws anywhere, and it looks very natural.
But can the people who can make the soldiers of the Four Princes respectfully and retreat without saying anything can they be ordinary soldiers?
There are no flaws, but they are full of flaws.
Sheng Shuyuan's pupils shrank, and she found that these people ...... The way she walks and the color of her skin resembles the thug who harassed her in the Southland.
They are...... Border barbarians?
The four princes colluded with the border barbarians?
Sheng Shuyuan originally wanted to rest for one night before setting off, but when she found out about it, she didn't find it and sit still.
The fourth prince should be in the palace of the Emperor Taishang now, maybe the Emperor is not in a coma at all.
————
"Grandpa Huang, how's it going? I'm wearing this dress, mighty or not? "The four princes are wearing dragon robes, but they are not the right size, and they look like children stealing adult clothes.
The Emperor didn't speak, and snorted coldly.
"It's okay, I know it's ugly." The fourth prince said proudly, "When I wear it to the court tomorrow, do you think anyone will dare to say that it is ugly?" ”
The hoarse voice of the Emperor came out, "You can't wait so much? ”
"Naturally, no one is more impatient than me." The fourth prince bowed his head and smiled at him, "As long as the boss comes back, this son will be his, so I can't hurry." Let him...... Never to come back. ”
"Unfilial son." The Emperor Taishang scolded.
"Unfilial? What is filial piety? The fourth prince said coldly, "The grandson is good to grandpa, and grandpa is also good to grandpa." I am so good to you, are you useful to me? Are you good to me as a grandfather to a grandson? If you want me to be filial, you have to be filial first. ”
The Emperor was so angry that he gasped, but he didn't say a word.
"I know you look down on me." The fourth prince didn't care and said, "I know that my father and emperor also look down on me, and everyone in the world looks down on me, even my mother, and she is the same." But so what, I don't need you to look at it. I look down on you myself, and I don't care if you look up to you. ”
The fourth prince whispered to the emperor, "Don't you want to speak?" ”
The Emperor turned his head.
"I'm afraid I'm thinking about your good grandson." The fourth prince sneered, "Boss? Did he rush over? Or rather...... Is he alive? ”
"Why, I'm telling the truth, but I don't hate the boss at all. On the contrary, I think he is extremely pitiful and pathetic, obviously born in the prince's family, but because of the negligence of his father, my imperial grandfather, he died young. His mother didn't talk like that, so she went with the prince. Who will love a son who doesn't even love his parents? The only one with the best hope of bringing him well, the emperor, what is the result? Afraid of seeing his grandson touching the scene, he left a child in a cannibalistic place for a few years. ”
The fourth prince looked at the emperor and became more angry, and the happier he said, "As a result, I really met the queen, taught him carefully, and said something ridiculous, if the person who was taught by the queen was me, I could also grow like Wen Jingxing, the queen is really my ideal mother." ”
"What the hell are you trying to say?" Emperor Taishang said with red eyes.
"I don't want to say anything, I just want to tell you. How pathetic Wen Jingxing is. The fourth prince shook his head, "It seems that since the queen adopted Wen Jingxing, his life has improved." The Emperor Taishang also cared about him because of his talent, and even had a younger brother who was a little follower, and he also had military power. ”
"It's ridiculous that the person who said he liked him before threw him into hell overnight. My good brother, on that day, was abandoned by his own grandfather, and his adoptive mother left the country, and even had to carry such a big mess on his younger brother. Why is there such a big change? ”
The Emperor Taishang said tiredly, "You don't understand at all, I'm all for his good." ”
"Hahahahahahaha The fourth prince laughed until he burst into tears, "Good for him?" Self-righteous and pathetic. ”
"People just fall in love with someone who should be in love, who do you think you are? Even the right to fall in love with whom you want to be deprived? What have you done for him? Did you take care of him when he lost his parents? Did you manage him when he was being bullied? He was struggling in the border and was assassinated by countless people, did you care about him? Now that he is crushed in the mountains, have you ever taken care of him? The fourth prince said, "You are just sitting back and enjoying the success, enjoying the good of exploiting this grandson, finding fault with his bad, and even saying ...... You still want him to live as you like, like your son you are ashamed of, so that your heart will feel a little better when you kill your own son. ”
A few tears overflowed from the emperor's cloudy eyes, "Nonsense, I also love him, if this matter is put on other emperors, who will not kill him." ”
"Yes, the emperor will, but a grandfather won't." The fourth prince shook his head, "To be an emperor, you are worthy of the world." As a grandfather and a father, are you worthy of your son? ”
"I'm trying to stop him from making mistakes!" The Emperor Taishang said as he knocked on the table next to him.
"Wrong? I don't think that's wrong. You look at worldly ideas, and I only care about my own thoughts. If there is a person who can be abandoned by everyone and is willing to pull me, when I am looked down on by everyone and is willing to teach me patiently, or even when everyone says that I can't do it, he will patiently enlighten me, whether it is a man or a woman, I love it. A person like you, who is loved by thousands of people, will not understand this feeling of redemption at all. ”
"Hahaha, wonderful." The man came in with applause, "Without further ado, we'll write the agreement now." ”
"Who is he?" The Emperor pointed at the man's hand and couldn't help but tremble.
"Obviously." The fourth prince pointed at the man, and said word by word, "Border pass, barbarian, king." ”
The barbarian king also gave the emperor a playful salute, "Yes Lone, how about it, this should be our first meeting, and it will be the last." ”
"You actually colluded with the border guards?" The Emperor Taishang was so angry that his eyes widened, "I'm sorry that you are a family matter, and collusion with the border is a state matter." There is no distinction between family and country, do you think that if he helps you, you can smoothly become the emperor of Shangyun Kingdom? ”
The Fourth Prince shrugged, "This is my only chance, isn't it?" ”
"Don't say that, Bianguan will be Yunguo's best friend in the future." The barbarian laughed.
The emperor's chest kept rising and falling, "You forgot your uncle...... Did my uncle die at whose hands? ”
"I haven't forgotten." The fourth prince smiled sweetly, "If it weren't for your misjudgment, how could my uncle have died in his hands, in the final analysis, this matter can't be blamed on the border barbarians." It's all you, dictatory. ”
The Emperor Taishang pointed to the barbarian's face, the corners of his mouth twitched to say something, but his voice was inaudible.
The barbarian king walked along with the situation, and listened with his ears.
Between the lightning and thunder, the Emperor Taishang's eyes glowed with golden light, and he took out a dagger out of nowhere and stabbed him in the abdomen.
The barbarian king's hand quickly dodged, after all, it was too close, and it was still inserted a little, and just as he was about to stab the knife back into the heart of the emperor with his backhand, he suddenly felt a stinging pain in his back.
He didn't even look back, and pushed the man away with his elbow, which turned out to be the fourth prince.
Attacking back and forth, even if a strong person can't exert all his strength under the large amount of blood, he said angrily, "You, why, you? ”
The fourth prince smiled at him, not talking nonsense at all, grabbed his body and stabbed him with a knife, whether it was important or unimportant, and used a ruthless force.
Sheng Shuyuan was stunned above, yes, he arrived as soon as the fourth prince came in, he just wanted to inquire about the military situation, but he didn't expect to forget it when he listened to it.
The barbarian king was dying, his eyes were always open, he looked like he was dead, and his mouth was even bleeding constantly, obviously he wanted to know the reason before he died.
"You're looking for the wrong person. Even if you look for Wen Jingxing, you may have a better chance of success than me. "The fourth prince took the clothes on his body and methodically wiped the blood on the knife" Do you want to know why? ”
The barbarian king's eyes kept blinking, and his mouth seemed speechless.
The fourth prince smiled: "Then I'll let you be a ghost." ”
"From the moment you extended your invitation to me, you had pushed me over their side. I don't have the ability to be good, I really don't know anything, and even people all over the world look down on me, only my uncle, do you dare to touch my uncle? ”
"I wanted to be the emperor at the beginning, and I just wanted to avenge my uncle, but now I have revenge, this emperor ...... Oh, I don't want this life. The fourth prince originally wanted to leave, but when he thought of something, he suddenly turned his head to look at him, and said lightly, "There is one more thing, all your troops are for us to detain, you border barbarians, as long as there are people who are stained with my uncle's blood, I will not let any of them go." ”
This picture really has a bit of Wen Jingxing's appearance, if the four princes have always been in this state, the position of emperor is nothing to him.
The Emperor Taishang stood up with a complicated expression, looking much older than the last time Sheng Shuyuan saw him. He looked at the back of the fourth prince in the distance, and suddenly said, "What you said just now...... Is it true, or is it ...... In order to lie to what they said. ”
"Lie to them...... the four princes didn't reply, "Is it possible?" I don't like to make up nonsense. ”
"I'm not speaking for Wen Jingxing, it's just that I look at him like myself, if my uncle can survive all the time, maybe he can teach me to be like Wen Jingxing like the queen." Maybe the emperor will have to worry about another thing. The Four Princes and His Uncle......
The four princes were not all disguises before, he only learned a small part of his uncle, but he only made a superficial foundation, and the latter ones were no longer there to be implemented, and the uncle was no longer there.
Therefore, the warmth that Wen Jingxing felt was also what he once had, and there was once a person who never gave up on him.
At the beginning, he also thought about going to the border pass, but he still knew how many catties and taels he had, so he had been hesitating, he was not afraid of death, he was afraid that no one would avenge his uncle if he died. It just so happened that Wen Jingxing was on the expedition. In order to test Wen Jingxing's ability, he kept sending people to assassinate him, just to test whether he could have this capital.
As it turned out, Wen Jingxing came back with a victory.
But the killer of my uncle is still alive. This matter is not over, the fourth prince first saw Wen Jingxing's feelings for Sheng Shuyuan, in fact, it doesn't have to be love, just his uncle can make the four princes empathize and understand the importance of Sheng Shuyuan to Wen Jingxing.
In order to make Wen Jingxing willingly inherit the throne, the fourth prince sent someone to assassinate Sheng Shuyuan, and the matter was successful, but he didn't expect to be ruined by the Emperor Taishang.
The Emperor Taishang gave up supporting him because of Wen Jingxing's affairs, and turned back to support himself, all the previous ones fell short, and the four princes could only try their best to prove how dull they were, desperately trying to get the Emperor Taishang to transfer his thoughts to Wen Jingxing.
Sure enough, the hard work paid off, and the flood made him mess up and successfully returned to Wen Jingxing. However, things took a turn for the better again, and Wen Jingxing was unlucky and was buried alive inside.
It may be that the sky has eyes and gave him the opportunity to take revenge with his own hands, and after the barbarian king knew the news of Wen Jingxing, he rushed to the capital overnight and tempted the four princes to cooperate, saying that he was willing to support him on the throne, while Wen Jingxing had not come back yet.
The four princes immediately decided to discuss this matter with the emperor, and the two of them joined forces inside and outside, and made a scene for the barbarians, tricking him into tricking the army into a trap, and then catching them all.
The Emperor Taishang knew that the fourth prince would say something excessive, he thought it was just something else, but he didn't expect it to be how to poke his heart.
Fourth Prince: It's just that I've used Wen Jingxing to assassinate Wen Jingxing for so many years, don't like my brother too much.
"Report ......"
This announcement stopped the four princes from advancing.
"Report to the Emperor, there are a large number of unknown troops approaching this side ahead."
Someone else???
Only then did the four princes remember: "The barbarian king said that they still have a queen yuan, and said that some of them went to the south to prepare to capture the queen or the concubine and come as a hostage." ”
