The main hall of the Qiankun Palace.

When Xiao Ke and Gu Yannian saw Cui Haoran, Cui Haoran had already lost his breath.

He lay on his back on the dragon chair, his eyes closed, his face painful and hideous, and he did not see the clear demeanor of the past. Bright red blood flowed down the dragon chair several feet away, and it looked like it was oozing a lot.

Fortunately, all the generals present were used to seeing blood, and when they saw Cui Haoran's death, their faces did not change. However, it is still a little embarrassing that such a powerful minister, who once covered the sky with one hand, died in such an end.

Xiao Ke is thirty years old, and his generation is one generation older than Xiao Yu, so Gu Yannian and Gu Li are called by their imperial uncles. He was dressed in black armor, tall, with good-looking phoenix eyes and delicate faces unique to the Xiao family.

Gu Yannian was carried by two soldiers because of his bad legs and feet, and Gu Li stood beside him.

Xiao Ke asked the palace people in the palace, "Who killed Cui Haoran?" ”

The palace people in the hall hesitated a few times, and the one who was the leader pointed to his mouth and then to his ears, indicating that he could not speak or hear.

"Deaf and dumb?" Xiao Ke narrowed his eyes, a hint of amusement flashing in his shrewd eyes.

Looks like there's something hidden......

Well, things are going a little too well! Originally, he had been ready to besiege the city for a month, but the city gate suddenly opened, and he was worried that he would carefully lead his troops into the city and then attack the palace, but it didn't take any effort at all.

Now, Xiao Ke saw that there was no minister in the hall, and the servants serving Cui Haoran were all deaf and dumb, and other doubts in his heart also surfaced in his heart.

It stands to reason that the ministers want to usurp the throne, and when the royal family is still large, the world's military strength must be at least more than half. And Cui Haoran, not to mention half of the troops, is estimated to be less than one-twelfth of the soldiers and horses of the Great Zhou.

It has been a few days since the enthronement decree was issued, and not even a single nearby city has publicly expressed its support.

Where does Cui Haoran want to be the emperor, it is clear that he was driven out of the duck and put on the shelf! Now the question is, who is it that drove Cui Haoran to a dead end?

Xiao Ke looked at Cui Haoran, and his cold gaze crossed his body and fell onto the golden dragon chair. Then, he heard the call of the demon from within......

He is also a child of the Xiao family and a member of the royal family, he is also qualified to sit on this chair, why should he give the dragon chair to Xiao Yu as a yellow-mouthed child?

Kill Xiao Yu, he is the only remaining Xiao family in the capital, and this throne is not in his bag!

Of course, Xiao Ke just popped up a little bit of this idea, and quickly pinched it off. He has the ambition to become an emperor, but he is not yet to the point of being blind and arrogant. What's more, he is now a prince and enjoys the ultimate wealth. Unless it is foolproof, Xiao Ke does not want to give up the power and wealth in his hands.

He has the right to fight for that chair, but if he decides to fight, then he will have no chance to regret it.

The road to becoming an emperor can only succeed, not fail!

Gu Yannian saw that Xiao Ke had not moved for a long time, and asked, "Uncle Xinhuang, what should we do now?" ”

Before Xiao Yu left, he didn't give any orders to the Gu family, except for leading troops to catch the traitor Cui Haoran, the two Gu Yannian brothers didn't know what else the Gu family could do.

If you do more, I'm afraid it's not good, and if you do less, I'm afraid it's not good......

Therefore, the two of them decided to throw this hot potato to Xiao Ke.
