Chapter Ninety-Three: The Downfall
Zongren's House.
The governing body of the descendants of the Li royal family of Huaguo is also a retreat place for many family masters.
Located on the south side of the palace, this seemingly ordinary mansion hides the greatest power of the Li royal family of Huaguo.
Under the moonlight, a figure stumbled into the Zongren Mansion and shouted, "Old Ancestor! Something happened! ”
Many figures appeared in the Zongren Mansion in an instant, and they couldn't see their faces clearly, and one of them shouted angrily: "The Zongren Mansion must not make noise, there are no rules at all?" ”
"Uncle Huang! Something is wrong! ”
It was a young man who broke into the Zongren Mansion, wearing an embroidered dragon general's uniform, obviously a child of the royal family, with a look of panic on his face, and said, "The Holy Lord has been assassinated!" ”
As soon as the words fell, the temperature of the entire Zongren Mansion dropped instantly.
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
"What the hell is going on, you tell me clearly!"
"How could the Holy One be assassinated? Who can break into the palace? ”
“…………………………………………”
A group of royal masters who practiced in the Zongren Mansion were shocked, and subconsciously didn't believe that this was true.
Even if there was no jade seal at this time, the palace guards were strong enough to defend against the realm powerhouses, not to mention that there was no movement at all before.
A group of royal masters were about to go to find out, when a thick hoarse sound sounded.
"What did you just say? Say it again! ”
The elders of the three clans who escorted Emperor Hua back appeared in front of everyone, and everyone hurriedly saluted respectfully: "Meet the elders of the three clans!" ”
After the young man who came to pay the report, he said again: "If you return to the elders of the three clans, the Holy Lord was killed in the Heart Cultivation Palace, and none of the guards outside the door and the guards in charge of the guards in the Heart Cultivation Hall were spared. ”
The elders of the three clans confirmed the news again, stumbled and almost sat on the ground.
"Go to the Heart Cultivation Hall immediately, and at the same time block the news and block the imperial capital."
As soon as Emperor Hua died, the elders of the three clans became the greatest reliance and reliance of the Li royal family.
The young man took the order and left, and the elders of the three clans led a group of royal masters to the Heart Cultivation Palace.
At this time, the Heart Cultivation Hall was already heavily guarded, and before the elders of the three clans and the people approached, they heard heart-rending and grief-stricken cries.
The queen and the crown prince got the news as soon as possible, and immediately rushed to the Heart Cultivation Palace.
When the elders of the three clans heard the crying in the hall, their hearts were completely cold.
After he brought people into the hall, the first thing that caught his eye was the corpse of Emperor Hua who fell to the ground.
The queen and the crown prince wept in their bodies, and when they saw the old of the three clans, they said sadly: "The old of the three clans! What can I do? ”
"Three Clans Old! Father's ...... Father's ...... He...... He ......"
The prince couldn't say anything sad for a while.
The elders of the three clans did not pay attention to the prince and the queen, and looked close to the corpse of Emperor Hua, the head of the corpse had been severely deformed by heavy injuries, but he could vaguely see the appearance.
Vantage was hit on the head with a palm and was directly shocked to death.
The death of a monarch in the palace is a great shame!
"Who found out first?"
The elder of the three clans asked.
Things are weird, the palace is heavily guarded, how can Emperor Vantage be killed silently? If it was an Assassin, how powerful must he be?
"It was the guards who patrolled and found that there was something wrong with the Heart Cultivation Palace, and they smelled blood, so they came to check and found the corpse of the attendant at the door, and after entering the hall, they saw the Holy ............."
One of the guards said.
When the elders of the three clans heard this, their eyes flashed, and they said coldly: "Don't disclose the news, hold a clan meeting immediately." ”
"Yes!"
The commander of the guards commanded.
The crown prince and the queen glanced at each other and continued to weep bitterly.
………………………………………………………………
In a palace that had been idle for a long time in the harem of the imperial city, Emperor Hua had a gloomy face.
This palace was once the dormitory of Li Zhen's mother, and after the death of Li Zhen's mother, the palace was not opened, and it has been retained as it was back then.
The ghost ancestor definitely didn't dare to touch him, and after taking him away, he didn't leave the palace, but let him witness a series of actions of the queen and the crown prince later, such as how to change the guards, how to evacuate the shadow guard, how to find the corpse, etc., as if after precise rehearsals, any link was seamless.
If there is a flaw and shortcomings, it is that Vantage is not dead as the protagonist.
Li Zhen asked his father to see with his own eyes how the queen and crown prince he had chosen.
Vantage was shocked and pained in his heart, and his wife and children betrayed, which undoubtedly proved his failure.
"Why didn't you kill me? And let me see these things? ”
Emperor Vantage said to the ghost ancestor who was guarding him.
The ghost ancestor smiled slightly and said, "The young master said, let you clean up the prince and queen by yourself." ”
"Young master?"
Emperor Hua was puzzled: "You are not in the same group as the crown prince and the queen?" ”
"The prince is the old man's apprentice, but that was before, and now the old man has a new owner."
The ghost ancestor said with some emotion, and such words fell in the center of Vantage's ears and was shocked.
The prince actually worshipped a demon realm powerhouse as a teacher behind his back, and what is even more tragic is that at the beginning of Emperor Hua's ascension to the throne, he presided over the fight against the demon path, and several years of hard work have been successful, but who would have thought that the prince would not only worship the demon path as a teacher, but also take in the remnants of the demon path that survived that year for his own use, which is really a great irony.
In less than half an hour, Emperor was very disappointed in the prince.
"Who is your new master?"
Vantage was very curious.
The Ghost Ancestor did not answer his question directly, but threw a stack of materials in front of Vantage.
Vantage frowned slightly, then picked up and read.
There is not much content in it, it is the truth of the witch Gu case back then, there are participants and the entire action plan in it, there is no mistake, and it is seamless.
This information not only contains the beginning and end of the witchcraft case, but also the confessions of each participant.
At the beginning, after Li Zhen won the ghost ancestor, one of the biggest tasks was to collect this information, and with the status of the ghost ancestor on the prince's side, it was not difficult to do this.
"It turns out that your new owner is Zhen'er."
When Emperor Hua saw this evidence of clearing the grievances of Li Zhen and his mother, his heart ached.
"I didn't believe that their mother and son would do such a thing back then, but the evidence was conclusive at that time, and I was helpless."
Vantage seems to be emotional, and it is like an explanation.
"What about Zhen'er? Where is he? ”
The Ghost Ancestor shook his head and said, "The young master doesn't want to see you, and he will come to see you again after you deal with the prince and queen." ”
When Emperor Hua heard this, he knew that Li Zhen had emotions for him, but he could be sure that Li Zhen must be hiding somewhere in this dormitory, and said: "Father has never wanted to hurt your mother and son, even if the witch Gu case was really done by you, and your mother's death Father Emperor does not want to see it." ”
Li Zhen's mother was the favorite concubine of the Emperor of Vowage.
If Emperor Hua really killed because of the witch Gu case, even if his mother stopped all the blame on one person, Li Zhen would never be able to go to Qingyuanmen.
Li Zhen was indeed in the dormitory, and his heart trembled.
He believed his father's words, but his father did not protect his mother.
