Chapter 440
The whole audience stared intently, although they knew that they were afraid that they would not be able to pass today, but no one expected that Nangong Chen would do it himself. Could it be that Wei Yanghou didn't agree, would he really kill him?
Even those courtiers who had already stood on Nangong Chen's side couldn't help but feel worried in their hearts. I couldn't help but feel a little more jealous in my heart, if I hadn't stood in line a long time ago, and I was 'forced' to do this rebellious thing with Nangong Chen, would I have died under his hands?
Thinking like this, everyone didn't feel covered in cold sweat.
All along, everyone, whether it is for the sake of interests to support Nangong Chen, or still tough, for the sake of the name and loyalty of the monarch is absolutely not threatened, which one has ever looked at Nangong Chen? In the eyes of everyone, Nangong Chen is a lustful prince, who can spend money and play with women, and can achieve nothing else. If it weren't for the status of a prince, no one would have looked at him at all.
This understanding has been realized until today, and everyone has finally made a solid change.
is so bold and forced the palace to usurp the throne, it is not something that any prince can do. Throughout the hundreds of years since the founding of the Western Chu State, there have been countless princes, and there are many open and secret battles between brothers for the throne, which is dazzling to everyone. But there are only a few people who really dare to usurp the throne directly.
Just because Nangong Chen has such a big courage, and looking at today's situation, it is difficult to say whether it will succeed, but at least now Nangong Chen has taken the initiative and held everyone's lives in his hands, and everyone has to change their opinion of him.
Junyi had a faint smile on his face, as if gossiping, and everyone watched Nangong Chen hold his sword and aim at Wei Yanghou's neck and said, "This palace only counts three times, one ...... 2. ......"
The life-threatening rebellion was decided by Nangong Chen as a child's play.
Without much patience and no interest in threatening one by one, Nangong Chen directly forced each other with his sword to make an example of the monkey, this indifferent attitude is the most chilling. Every courtier who watched seemed to have a string in his heart, which could break at any time, and some timid ladies didn't dare to look at it directly, covering their faces and hiding in the man's arms and shivering.
The atmosphere became heavier and heavier, and Wei Yanghou's hairs stood up all over his body, and his back was soaked.
He didn't know if Nangong Chen really dared to make a move, but he was stimulated by his actions. Whether it is age, seniority or identity, he is far superior to Nangong Chen, but at this moment, Nangong Chen is condescending and absolutely dominant in determining his life, which makes Wei Yanghou unable to control it, and he only feels extremely angry and extremely ashamed.
"Nangong Chen, you bastard, even if Ben Hou dies, he will definitely not ......"
Laugh at!
Suddenly, blood gushed out from Wei Yanghou's neck like a fountain, his voice stopped abruptly, and a deep wound in his throat almost cut off his head. His eyes widened and he looked at Nangong Chen in disbelief, as if he didn't believe that he would really do it without hesitation.
And Nangong Chen, instead of having a scared expression on his face, he was full of enjoyment. This hideous smile made everyone shudder, but he raised his long sword with ease, watching the blood dripping from it to the ground, as if he had seen the most beautiful thing in the world.
"Old immortal thing, since you don't know the current affairs, then don't blame this palace for being ruthless."
Kicked hard behind Wei Yanghou, who fell to the ground in response, dead and blinding. Blood still flowed from him, as if endlessly, dyeing his clothes red in a moment. The air was suddenly filled with a strong smell of blood, and the red silk and red candles that originally looked extremely festive, and all the festive decorations, were as dazzling as blood stained red.
"Ahh
Finally, a female dependant couldn't control it and screamed in horror, but then the person next to her covered her mouth and didn't let her make a sound. Everyone finally gave up completely, either taking refuge in Nangong Chen and being charged with rebellion with him, or they were dead.
Coldly glancing at Wei Yanghou's corpse on the ground, Nangong Chen wiped the sword in his hand on him, and then swept his gaze over the faces of the rest of the people one by one. Every time he saw a person's face, the latter didn't dare to look directly at him, and lowered his head directly, Nangong Chen became more and more excited, his heart was hot, and in the face of everyone's reaction, he had the supremacy for the first time, and he was quick to kill and kill. Feel.
How can these courtiers hold power again? Now I don't want to look at his face, I don't dare to disobey at all! Whoever he wants to die, he has to die, he sees whoever is not pleasing to the eye, he will kill whoever he wants, if he is not happy, what if he kills everyone on the scene? He can change another group of people, a group of more obedient people. As long as he becomes the emperor of Western Chu and sits on that high throne, who else dares to underestimate him and dare not listen to him?
Excited and ecstatic, Nangong Chen tried his best to hold back, now is not the time to laugh, he wants to make these people obedient one by one. Everything is going according to his plan, as long as he waits until his father abdicates, kills his eldest brother Nangong Qing, and then kills Nalan Ye, then he can sit back and relax.
"Who else...... Don't want to sign. Nangong Chen still looked at everyone with a smile on his face.
There was silence in the hall, no one spoke, and even though there were any more people who were angry, they dared not speak. After waiting for a while, Nangong Chen gave a look, and Hu Chen immediately took the roster, walked in front of everyone, and asked them to sign one by one.
Immediately, everyone couldn't wait to pick up the pen and hurriedly write down their names, and Hu Chen went back in turn, and in a moment, he had signed more than 20 names.
Nangong Chen was very satisfied, and laughed: "Isn't this right, my lords, know the times as a handsome man, follow this palace, this palace will not treat you badly." ”
At this moment, Mrs. Wei Yanghou, who had been frightened before, woke up faintly, and some of the bold women around her had the courage to help her, and she stood firm and saw the corpse on the ground. That blood-drenched appearance, even if it fell to the ground, also shocked Mrs. Wei Yanghou.
How could it be unrecognizable? Mrs. Wei Yanghou was shocked, where did she not know what was going on? She screamed: "Nangong Chen, you brute, I'll fight with you!" And he rushed over.
With a sneer, Nangong Chen's long sword in his hand was aimed at Mrs. Wei Yanghou, she froze instantly, trembling all over, and the blood stains on the sword that had not been wiped clean made her look shocking.
This is the blood of Wei Yanghou!
Mrs. Wei Yanghou's expression changed sharply, her heart was like ashes, and she screamed regardless of it: "You killed my Hou Ye, Nangong Chen, you also killed me, I won't let you go if I am a ghost!" ”
"Since Mrs. Wei Yanghou wants to die tightly, then this palace will fulfill you!"
Nangong Chen's face was hideous, just as he felt that he hadn't killed enough people, his methods were not ruthless enough, and he thought that he had not been able to completely suppress the courtiers present, he did not hesitate to aim at Mrs. Wei Yanghou and stabbed it with a sword.
Clang!
Suddenly, I don't know where something flew from nowhere, and it hit the long sword directly, Nangong Chen suddenly felt a sharp shock in the tiger's mouth, and almost didn't hold the long sword. The sword body broke in response, and when it fell to the ground with a thud, Nangong Chen only had half of the sword left in his hand.
"Who! Who! ”
This sudden scene made Nangong Chen suddenly nervous. The next moment, several figures flew out of the door, everyone was immediately disorganized, and they all dodged, and at the same time, there was also the sound of broken bricks and tiles overhead, and several figures fell into the sky, directly destroying the roof and landing. But in the blink of an eye, there were already seven or eight more people in black on the scene.
Needless to say, everyone knew that something was wrong, Nangong Chen roared: "Someone, there are assassins, kill this palace!" Don't let anyone go! ”
The guards of the forbidden army, who were a little caught off guard, moved one by one, and fought with these black-clothed men one after another. The ministers fled in a hurry, and no one dared to stand in place, for fear of being affected. But most people have a sense of happiness in their hearts, no matter where this man in black came from, he will not be worse now.
"Nangong Chen, you are so bold, you actually put your father and queen mother under house arrest and forced the palace to usurp the throne!" Suddenly, a Lang Lang male voice sounded, and everyone followed the sound, only to see Nangong Qing, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes, walked in surrounded by countless forbidden soldiers, and there was another young man standing next to him, it turned out to be Nalan Ye!
Prince Nangong Qing, and King Nalan Ye of Chu!
It actually appeared at this critical time!
"Prince, King Chu!" Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted, and then countless voices rang out, full of pleas for help and the joy of suddenly seeing a savior. Someone shouted: "His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the King of Chu, the five princes have already killed the Marquis of Wei Yang, and they want to force us to rebel with him, begging the King of Chu to take down the five princes immediately and go to rescue Your Majesty quickly!" ”
The gossip voice sounded, Nangong Chen suddenly felt bad, how could this be?
This is the Five Princes' Mansion, it is his territory, he obviously let the forbidden army tightly control it, just keep an eye on Nangong Chen and Nalan Ye, why did they still appear quietly?
The moment he saw Nangong Qing and Nalan Ye appear, Nangong Chen knew that he was afraid that he would not be able to do it today. He had calculated a lot of plans, but he didn't expect to be caught off guard before he was halfway through. Moreover, he still doesn't know what exactly is going on.
"Someone, someone! Where did they all die? ”
Nangong Chen shouted frantically, but there were more than twenty forbidden soldiers around him, and no matter how he shouted, no more people appeared. On the contrary, Nangong Qing and Nalan Ye were also standing beside countless forbidden troops, and with a turn of his eyes, Nangong Chen was shocked, he actually saw that Qiu Yuming, the commander of the forbidden army, was tied up by two forbidden troops, and the one standing next to him turned out to be the deputy commander of the forbidden army, Wang Dongzhi.
I see! So that's it!
Nangong Chen finally understood that he had bribed Qiu Yuming, the commander of the forbidden army, but Wang Dongzhi, the deputy commander, betrayed him. It's just a pretense to obey orders and let him be negligent, in fact, this Wang Dongzhi has long been on the side of his eldest brother Nangong Qing.
Even Qiu Yuming was arrested by them, so he didn't have the manpower to control the entire Five Princes' Mansion at all? What about his manpower? Nangong Chen felt a deep sense of powerlessness, just now it was like a cloud, but now it has fallen to the bottom, this strong gap makes him unable to accept it at all.
