Chapter VI: Plotting to usurp the throne

It turned out that Nangong Ye's ambition to seek the throne had long been ready to move, and the high-ranking and powerful civil and military officials in the middle of the court, except for the prime minister, had already been taken in by him for his own use, but he didn't plan to make a move so early.

Originally, Nangong Ye thought that as long as he accused Nangong Yi to the emperor, the emperor would definitely condemn him, and in that case, the throne would naturally be his. Because if Nangong Yi is convicted, he will lose the qualification to inherit the throne.

It's just that what Nangong Ye didn't expect was that the emperor was so partial to Nangong Yi that he didn't believe what he said anyway, so he couldn't bear it, so he could only advance all his plans, anyway, he had already prepared everything.

"Ye'er, how can you do such a rebellious thing?" Although the emperor has always disliked Nangong Ye, he never thought that he would be so bold, and it seems that he still takes it lightly.

"Father, you forced your sons to do all this, if you can be fair to your sons, how can your sons come to this point?" Nangong Ye has always thought that the emperor is very partial, and all the father's love and favor are given to Nangong Yi, but there is nothing for him.

Therefore, the resentment in Nangong Ye's heart has accumulated since childhood, and with the increase of time, the resentment has become heavier and heavier, and now it has finally exploded.

"Ye'er, it's not that your father is partial, it's that your personality is not suitable for being an emperor at all." Nangong Ye is a ruthless and arrogant person, and he doesn't have the qualities of being an emperor at all, so the emperor didn't think about passing on to him from the beginning.

"The sons and daughters have not yet been emperors, how can the father know that the sons are not suitable?" Nangong Ye felt that these were just excuses for the emperor's partiality, and in his heart, only he was the most suitable person to inherit the throne.

"Ye'er, turn back to the shore, if you can get lost, my father can forgive you for what you did today." The emperor thought that Nangong Ye was his son no matter what, so he wanted to give him another chance.

"Erchen has come to this point and will not look back, and don't blame Erchen for being ruthless." Nangong Ye didn't think about turning back at all, anyway, he had already prepared everything, and now that Nangong Yi was not in the palace, it was the best time for him to seek a dynasty and usurp the throne.

"Ye'er, do you think your plot will succeed?" The emperor was really disappointed in Nangong Ye, it seemed that he was determined to rebel, and the emperor also knew that Nangong Ye had already gathered a lot of forces in the court, but the emperor was not afraid in his heart, because he at least had military power in his hands.

"Since the son dares to do it, he is completely sure, and he will never let his father down." Nangong Ye smiled conceitedly, there are some things that the emperor would never have imagined, and this time he will definitely get the throne.

"Yi'er, don't be delusional, as long as I give an order, my army can take you and your forces down in an instant." The emperor was still relatively calm, but he was also quickly thinking about how to inform the Imperial Forest Army and let them know the current situation in the palace.

Because now that the emperor is ready to go to bed, only the chief eunuch Liu Yun will stay by his side to serve, but just now he has been sent to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the others have probably been controlled by Nangong Ye, otherwise if something like this happens, no one will come in.

"Father, do you think General Meng will come to save you? Then you may be disappointed. A smug smile flashed on Nangong Ye's face, because the great general Meng Xiao had already been taken in by him for his own use.

"What do you mean by that?" The emperor had some ominous premonitions in his heart, could it be that Meng Xiao was also bought by Nangong Ye? But on weekdays, it seems that he is so loyal to his duty that he will not betray himself.

"Father, what do you think this is?" Nangong Ye took out something from his body and shook it in front of the emperor's eyes, his face and heart were proud.

"Talismans? Why are the talismans with you? The emperor was taken aback, it seems that he really miscalculated, the talisman has already reached Nangong Ye's hands, then Meng Xiao should have been bought by him a long time ago, and his dedication to duty on weekdays is just pretending.

"Father, you must not have thought of it, right? Now that all the civil and military officials in the court and the central government support the succession of their sons, does the father still dare to oppose it? Nangong Ye's words were an obvious threat, and now he was not afraid of the emperor at all, because there was no one available around the emperor at all.

"Nangong Ye, you are so despicable, Prime Minister Ben will never support someone like you to succeed to the throne." At this time, Ling Xiaotian and Zhao Jingyi were escorted in.

"Prime Minister, maybe this king should call you your father-in-law, why are you so stubborn?" Nangong Ye sneered and looked at Ling Xiaotian, he didn't understand why everyone else supported his succession, but his titular father-in-law was resolutely opposed.

Maybe all this is because of Nangong Yi, as soon as he thought of this, Nangong Ye's heart was a little more angry.

"Don't call me father-in-law, this prime minister can't stand it." Ling Xiaotian had always disliked Nangong Ye, and now he hated him even more, but he didn't expect him to be so bold and dare to rebel openly.

"Daddy......" Ling Yufei, who had been standing next to her and didn't speak, had already been stunned by everything that came suddenly, she had always known Nangong Ye's ambitions, but she didn't expect him to do everything today.

"Don't call me either, I don't have a daughter like you." Ling Xiaotian's eyes were full of disappointment when he looked at Ling Yufei, he never thought that she would do such a rebellious thing with Nangong Ye.

"Someone, take the prime minister and the prime minister's wife to prison for this king." Nangong Ye originally planned to give Ling Xiaotian a chance to take refuge in him, but he didn't expect his attitude to be so resolute, so he angrily gave such an order.

"Stop, who dares to touch the prime minister?" The emperor shouted at the guards who rushed in, it seems that only the prime minister is really loyal to him among the civil and military officials in the court, so he must not let Nangong move him at night.

It's just that those guards are still ready to take Ling Xiaotian and Zhao Jingyi away as if they didn't hear the emperor's words.

"I told you to stop, didn't you hear?" The emperor didn't expect that even the little guards wouldn't listen to him, it seemed that he was underestimating Nangong Ye.

"Father, do you think they will still listen to your orders now? Take people away. Nangong Ye looked at the emperor with great disdain, not to mention the little guards now, even those high-ranking and powerful people have to obey him, and they will not listen to the emperor at all.

Although the emperor was in a hurry, he had no choice but to watch the guards take Ling Xiaotian and his wife away.

And at this moment, Ling Yuwei and Nangong Yi were still rushing back to Nanling Kingdom non-stop, but they might not have imagined that the palace had already changed color.
