Chapter 217: The Ancient Lord Awakens
The Sword Idiot and Yang Lao walked out at the same time, and when they saw the radiant smiles on the faces of Yang Lao and the Wise Man, they knew that His Majesty's (Father's) illness had been cured, but they still couldn't help but ask.
"Father, is he awake?"
The sword idiot shook his head slightly, but said lightly: "The Gu Country Lord's illness has accumulated for a long time, and he won't wake up for a while, but he will wake up in a few days, don't worry." ”
Hearing the answer they wanted to know, a long-lost smile appeared on their faces, that kind of smile from the heart, tears flowed from the corners of the eyes of the eldest prince, he had been guarding for so long, and finally waited for his father to recover.
In fact, the throne is not so important to the eldest prince and the second prince, when the ancient lord was not sick, the two of them went to the military camp, in the military camp they started from the bottom of the army with excellent military quality and strong strength, and have been the general and military division, one was given a hundred victorious generals, and the other was known as the resourceful ghost military division.
Why is it called a ghost military division?
That's because no matter how big the situation is, no matter how sinister the war is, the second prince can always bring people unexpected schemes and forcibly pull back the battle situation that he is about to lose.
Now that their father is about to wake up, it's time for them to go back to the army and continue their lives, maybe they were born to belong to the army.
The sixth prince was also excited, knowing that his father was about to wake up, and there were more smiles on his face today than in previous years.
The seventh princess also grabbed the fourth princess's hand excitedly, and said excitedly: "Father is about to wake up." ”
The fourth princess calmly showed a faint smile, and looked at her sister and smiled slightly: "Hmm." The Third Prince and the Eighth Prince also forced a smile, and the wise man ordered to go down, and the heavy troops would be guarded here.
night
The palace is not too calm,
In the bedroom of the third prince, the eighth prince also sat here with a deep face, they had spent so much effort, for several years, seeing that their father and emperor could not hold on, but now they were disrupted by the sword idiot alone Disrupted all their deployments.
"Third brother, what now?"
The third prince was silent, looking at the scenery of the night sky outside the window, and suddenly there was a knock on the door, and the eyes of the eighth prince and the third prince stared at the same time, who would come to them so late?
The third prince gave his eighth brother a look, and the eighth prince slowly walked over to open the door, and when he saw the person in front of him, he was suddenly stunned, and said eatingly: "Four... Fourth sister, why are you here?"
The third prince frowned, put away the drawings on the table, and after the fourth princess and the eighth prince sat down, the eighth prince was a little uneasy, and the third prince looked at his fourth sister relaxedly, and asked with a puzzled expression: "What do the fourth sister want to do when you come to me so late?"
"Actually, it's nothing, I just want to talk to you, third brother. The fourth princess chuckled.
The third prince and the eighth prince were even more puzzled, today's fourth princess seemed to be a little abnormal, and the third prince asked quietly, "What does the fourth sister want to talk to me?"
"Of course, let's talk about you going to kill your father!" The fourth princess let out a cold laugh, the window was blown open by the gloomy wind, and the three princes quietly left the palace and came to the room where their father lived.
He unconsciously avoided the serious illness and came to the room, where the two personal guards also fell asleep on the ground.
When the third prince saw his father on the bed, a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he muttered to himself: "Old immortal, why are you alive, hindering my plan, you are still dead." Suddenly, an extra dagger appeared in his hand, and he approached the person on the bed step by step.
At this time, he did not know that a great crisis was coming, and when he came to the bedside, looking at the familiar face of his father, the darkness in his heart was infinitely magnified, and the sinister laughter echoed throughout the room, and the throne would be his alone.
At that time, he was the head of a nation, enjoying endless prestige and power.
A sword stabbed down, and he suddenly felt his wrist grabbed by a powerful hand, and he couldn't move. His face was horrified, and he saw that the man lying on the bed actually opened his eyes, and a pair of majestic eyes were staring at him, and the hand that grabbed him was the hand of the ancient country lord lying on the bed.
His body began to tremble, and he said inarticulately, "Father...... Father, why are you awake?" His eyes came back to his senses, and when he saw the dagger he was holding in his hand, he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground with his feet limp, he threw the dagger aside, and hurriedly said, "Father is not what you think." ”
The ancient lord had a deep face, sat up and looked at his son who was kneeling on the ground, with a bitter expression and didn't know where to start.
The lights of the room turned on in an instant, and there were several people standing around, along with the personal guards who had fallen asleep on the ground before, slowly stood up, and locked their eyes on the three princes.
The third prince saw the familiar figure around him, the clothes behind him were wet with sweat, and then recalled the scene when he was holding a dagger, and he fell into the deep valley in an instant.
"Third brother, I didn't expect you to be such a person, and you would want to assassinate your father!"
The third prince's face was pale, and when he heard the words of the fourth princess, he smiled miserably, looked at the fourth princess with miserable eyes, and said: "I see, hahaha, I didn't expect that I would be used one day, hahahaha......"
"What else do you have to say?"
The facts are in front of him, and it is useless for him to quibble.
Seeing that the three princes were silent and did not speak, the ancient lord sighed and said, "Someone will escort him down, and immediately deprive him of the position of the third prince and wait for the verdict." ”
At this moment, the third prince instantly aged dozens of years, and was taken down by several soldiers.
Soon when he was being taken down, a soldier hurried to the room and said in horror: "See Your Majesty, the Eighth Prince... He..."
"What's wrong with him?"
"Eighth Prince, he's dead!" The soldier lowered his head, the ancient lord was shocked, his chest rose and fell violently, the faces of several ministers changed, and the wise man showed a solemn expression and asked, "Where is the body?"
"In the bedroom of the third prince. ”
Hiss!
Everyone took a breath of cool air, and the eighth prince was actually killed by the third prince.
The eldest prince was even more shocked.
They came to the dormitory where the third prince lived overnight, and saw the eighth prince who was dripping with blood on the ground, and his death was extremely tragic, the fourth princess and the seventh princess covered their mouths, and looked scared: "I didn't expect the third brother to be such a person." ”
"Order the Criminal Department to interrogate Gu Xiang immediately. ”
"Yes!"
Their expressions were quite solemn, and such a thing happened overnight.
Yang Lao's eyes narrowed slightly, he felt that this matter was too coincidental, when he looked at the wise man, he happened to meet the eyes of the wise man, and from the eyes of both parties, it seemed that this matter was not simple, all things were too coincidental.
After a day of rest, the sword idiot didn't know what happened last night, and he was also surprised when he woke up early in the morning to know that the third prince had killed the eighth prince.
