For Chu Hongchen, the current old emperor no longer has any threat, and trying to kill him is as simple as strangling an ant.

"Father, don't worry, your son is absolutely loyal to you, and he has no half-heartedness. Now I will take care of you wholeheartedly, so that you will get better as soon as possible. "What Chu Hongchen said was very hypocritical, and what he said was for the old emperor and the group of people who were still outside.

Because, so far, he still doesn't know what the situation is, so he can only pretend like now, after all, he can't act rashly and leave any leverage to add loopholes to his plans, he has to be foolproof.

Chu Hongchen kept expressing his heartfelt and concern to the dying old emperor, and even said a lot of things that were clear of his conscience, all in order to let the old emperor relax his vigilance as soon as possible and believe him.

Although he didn't have any combat power at all, it would be nice if these words could be heard by the group outside.

Because if they listen to it, they will also relax their vigilance, thinking that he is a great filial son, and when the time comes, they will be much more relieved to do something to the old emperor, which can be regarded as breaking through the emperor's inner defense, so that he can slowly let down his guard against himself, and then be slaughtered by himself with peace of mind.

Realizing that the time was almost up, the group of subordinates just now might have already left, and now they really only left themselves and the old emperor in front of them.

And this old emperor does not have the slightest threat, there is no danger factor for himself, in this way, Chu Hongchen can't help but feel a little proud and complacent, he feels that even if this world is a little late, but sooner or later it will be in his hands, now is the perfect time, and he is resolutely impossible to miss.

Really.

Although the old emperor is terminally ill and has reached his current state, he still feels very relieved after listening to what Chu Hongchen said, and feels that he didn't pay enough attention to this son before, but in fact, he is still good, at least filial piety.

Maybe it's because he's about to die, so it's easy to let down some of his guard, so even if Chu Hongchen didn't say anything, just said something to express his heartfelt and concern, it was already enough to let the emperor let down his guard.

Of course, Chu Hongchen is not a fool, he has been observing words and emotions for so many years, and now he is about to ascend the throne, so he naturally understands what the emperor thinks.

He knew what the emperor was thinking in his heart, and he knew by looking at him that he had relaxed his vigilance, so Chu Hongchen began to try to talk to the emperor.

Although the content of his conversation may not be liked by the old emperor, because this time he wants to try to tell the old emperor about Chu Hongze, who has been missing for a long time, after all, he is about to ascend the throne, and this matter will have to be resolved sooner or later.

Besides, the old emperor was about to come to the end of his life, he had to know these words, and he deliberately wanted to say them to him, he wanted to know what kind of attitude the emperor had towards Chu Hongze.

"Father, there are some words, son...... I don't know if to talk about it or not? Chu Hongchen also deliberately politely greeted the old emperor, smiled with a look of respect for him, and pretended to hesitate and asked.

The old emperor listened to Chu Hongchen's words, and also felt a little strange, he didn't understand what he was talking to himself, but since he said so, how could he not let him talk about it, so the old emperor nodded directly.

"Ahem...... Ahem. If you have anything to say, you just need to ask me, you know my current body, and sometimes I may not be able to answer your questions in time. The old emperor coughed and panted as he spoke, looking like the end of the day was approaching, and he was in the state of a dying person.

And when the prince saw him like this, he also showed a very regretful look, but in fact, he was very happy in his heart, wishing that he was dead now, and it would save him from doing it.

However, he was also amused by what he said next, because his next words might make the old emperor half angry, and I am afraid that it would hasten his death.

"Father, do you remember the six emperors who disappeared?"

The old emperor listened to his words, opened his eyes again, and looked at Chu Hongchen on the side with some doubts, as if he didn't understand what he meant by these words at all.

But he really doesn't understand, why Chu Hongchen wants to say such things at such a time, does he have news of Chu Hongze?

However, before the old emperor could come up with any words, Chu Hongchen directly said what he wanted to say, "Father, do you think that the six emperors have disappeared, and there is no news yet, is it really just a coincidence?" Or rather...... Is it really that he said goodbye? ”

When Chu Hongchen said these words, his face was covered with a faint haze, as if he didn't know what kind of attitude he should have towards the old emperor, or Chu Hongze.

And when the old emperor heard Chu Hongchen say this, when he looked at him again, he suddenly felt a little bad in his heart.

He felt that something bad might have happened, but now he was powerless to return to the sky, after all, his current body could not help himself at all.

Moreover, after listening to these words, he only felt that his qi and blood were surging up instantly, and he didn't know what kind of content he would hear next, so he didn't dare to listen to it at all.

However, it has come to this point, how can he not listen to what is going on.

In fact, the emperor felt that there was something strange about this matter before, because he didn't understand why it became like this? Chu Hongze disappeared inexplicably, and there was no news about it, and Qi Lao and Wen Ruyi also had no news at the same time, which could never be a coincidence.

"You...... What do you mean by that? If you want to say it, make it clear, I ...... Why can't I understand? The old emperor asked this sentence with the last strength of his body, because he really had a bad feeling in his heart.

However, he couldn't tell what he meant, so he could only ask, because he didn't want Chu Hongchen to sell like this in front of him anymore, and it was not a matter of delaying it like this.

"Father, do you care about the Sixth Emperor Brother very much? It's because of this that he has disappeared until now, and there has been no news, all of this is caused by you. ”

Actually, Chu Hongchen didn't know what was going on, but he deliberately guided him in this direction, which made the old emperor even more angry.

Sure enough, the old emperor's body was not very good, and now what he said directly made his whole face red, as if he was really angry, as if he was really unable to accept what Chu Hongchen said now.

The old emperor was really angered by Chu Hongchen's words this time, and his body became worse and worse because of this, as if he was about to die, and even his whole body was about to tremble.

He was originally a dying person, and his physical condition was not very good, and now the various functions of his body were even more incapable of running by Chu Hongchen.

However, he had a general consideration of what Chu Hongchen said in his heart, he knew what Chu Hongchen was talking about, but he couldn't react anymore, he could only stare at him.

Chu Hongchen saw the emperor's angry look, and immediately became proud, he was very satisfied with the current situation, and this was exactly the result he wanted.

Thinking of his own fears these days, he felt as if he had all been released and relieved at this moment, because there was only one last step left before he could get the throne at his fingertips.

Thinking like this, he directly took out the poison he had prepared before from his arms, and then poured the medicine directly into the old emperor's mouth without hesitation under the emperor's frightened gaze.

The old emperor didn't have any ability to resist, but now his body was so broken, coupled with the qi and blood that was stimulated by Chu Hongchen, he couldn't do any struggling movements now.

Moreover, even if he used all his strength desperately, he still couldn't match Chu Hongchen's strength.

What's more, he is now being boycotted here by Chu Hongchen, and he can't even shout for help if he wants to exit for help, after all, he no longer has that ability, and he can't fight Chu Hongchen at all, so he can only let him slaughter.

He knew that at this time, Chu Hongchen would feed himself something, presumably either a drug that forced him to die immediately, or a poison.

Anyway, whether it is to speed up his toxic onset or directly poison him to death, the result is the same.

The old emperor already knew that his deadline was approaching today, in fact, even if he didn't have Chu Hongchen's hand, he didn't have to be in such a hurry, he wouldn't live for a few days.

It's just that he still feels very surprised when he encounters this situation now, because he can't imagine that the heartfelt words just now are just an illusion created by Chu Hongchen for himself, just to show himself, so he doesn't need Chu Hongchen to say anything at all, he already knows what these things he is being fed now.

Even the old emperor himself didn't know whether he was right or wrong to do this, because he really couldn't understand what was going on and how it came to be the way he was.

He didn't know whether he should have valued Chu Hongze more in the first place, and ignored this prince, or whether he should give the crown prince to Chu Hongchen.

He had actually thought about this kind of thing more than once or twice before, but now that he was about to die, he began to think about it carefully.
