As soon as these words came out, Qi Rusong suddenly fell silent.

Great Xia Emperor Gu Hao has two sons and a daughter under his knees, and the power inheritance of his Gu clan is very peculiar. Half of the father's spiritual power will be inherited by one of the children.

The strong are respected, whether it is the eldest son or the youngest son, it is not an uncommon thing. But in Gu Hao's generation, a miracle has happened that has not been encountered for thousands of years.

Like He Xiao's mother in the eastern realm, Gu Hao's daughter inherited the Gu family's aura.

This became wonderful, for thousands of years in the Great Xia Kingdom, there had never been an empress. Of course, Gu Hao himself does not want the imperial power to be sidelined, but the two princes who have not inherited the aura of the Gu clan are not very in line with the ancestral teachings.

For this reason, the position of the crown prince has been vacant, and the second prince and prince have naturally peeped at the throne for a long time. It was an open secret of the Great Xia Kingdom that he formed a party for personal gain, and cultivated his own power.

Qi Rusong was the most reluctant to get involved in power disputes, but he didn't expect that the position of the king of the southern realm had not yet been hot, and disaster would come to the door.

I tried not to tear my face with him, but I didn't want to get involved in the struggle for the throne either. "How can I help you?"

"I'll tell you when the time comes!" Guyang Road.

"What can you give me?"

"Hahaha, happy!" Gu Yang laughed, "Of the five realms of the Great Xia Kingdom, the territory of your southern realm is the smallest and the weakest. If you help me ascend to the throne, I will guarantee that you will become the second most wealthy family in my Great Xia Kingdom in the future. The descendants of my Gu clan will definitely marry your Qi clan for generations and enjoy wealth forever. ”

Qi Rusong smiled faintly and remained silent.

"It's a no-brainer." Na Gu Yang continued, "You are an illegitimate child, and too many people in the southern border disobey you. Your brother's old ministry may be plotting something, and the position of the king of the south will not be stable.

Second, you also need a legitimate appointment, and that happens to be what I can give you. I will ask my father for a decree, and any doubts and objections will disappear! ”

"Otherwise, I will face the judgment of the Son of the Crossing Demon!"

Gu Yang snorted coldly, "I didn't say that," he smiled and continued, "You don't want to be a little unpleasant on your wedding day, do you!" ”

Forbearance can become gold, and he hasn't asked me to do anything at present, so I promised him first.

"The second prince, I will definitely help you!"

"Haha, I really didn't see the wrong person!" Gu Yang laughed, "In three days, I will clear the thorns on the road for you, so that you can be your king of the southern realm with peace of mind!" ”

"Then thank you to the second prince in advance!"

The two looked at each other, and then each laughed.

Born into five families, Game of Thrones will come one day, but I didn't expect it to come in such a hurry. Qi Rusong smiled bitterly in his heart, one of his feet had already stepped in, and he might never be able to get out of it again in this life.

~~~~Gorgeous dividing line~~~~

A few children jumped past, splashing a large puddle of water. The old woman cursed them, but they didn't stop. Others began to move up the hill to see what was going on.

A little girl runs after a boy who moves slowly. "Where are you going?" As she ran behind him, she exclaimed, "What's going on?" ”

He glanced back, but his pace didn't slow. "The prince is going to take him to Dongshi Square."

"Who to bring?" She screamed and ran as fast as she could.

"Of course it's a previous life! My mother said they were going to cut off his head. ”

A passing carriage left deep ruts in the ground. The boy leaped over, and the girl was forced to stop where she was.

"Quickly dodge!" Someone at the intersection shouted, "Your Excellency has arrived!" Evade quickly! ”

Passers-by avoided each other, and four guards in armor rumbled past on tall horses, followed by two noble young masters, riding two short ponies side by side.

Suddenly, bells rang everywhere. So more people went in the same direction, anxious to find out why the bell was ringing.

"What the hell is going on?" A man in the crowd asked.

"It's the prince, and they're going to take him to Dongshi Square."

"I heard he died."

"It's going to be soon, it's going to be fast. Come on, come on, I'll bet they'll cut off his head. ”

"It's long overdue to cut off your head, this rebel who killed his father and rebelled." The man spat out.

"Stupid! They will not cut off his head. When did the traitor behead him be beheaded in Dongshi Square? ”

"Well, it's not going to make him the king of the South, is it? I've heard that this guy is colluding with the demon clan to cause chaos. They are trying to murder our current prince in the Ghost Shadow Forest. Later, when he was discovered, he pretended to be okay and lied about the first king's crossing demon. ”

"Alas, that's not the case, it is said that he himself is the crossing demon. Otherwise, how could anyone commit the brute act of killing his biological father and framing his younger brother. ”

"Don't talk nonsense here, power will make people evil ghosts, I think he is in a hurry to become the king of the south!"

"Yes, this mad villain is actually in the company of brutes who cultivate [souls]. How many people have killed me in Lingnan City! ”

By the time the crowd arrived at Dongshi Square, the crowd was already rubbing shoulders and crowded.

The white marble plaza was full of people, excitedly talking to each other, crowded hoping to get closer to the center of the square. Here, the bells are very loud.

When a little boy saw a wooden carriage, he tried to climb on it, hoping to see it more clearly, but the people around him had the same thought, and the coachman scolded them and drove them away with a wave of his whip.

Suddenly, the noise stopped.

The former prince of the southern realm stood on a temporary platform in Dongshi Square, supported by a palace guard on the left and right. He wore a thick coat with a badge representing the Qi clan embroidered with beads on his chest.

But the people of the south had never seen him so thin, and his long face was full of pain. He could barely stand, supported by two guards, and three of his fingers were skinned and rotted throughout.

Standing behind him was Yin Lin, the minister of the Southern Territory, who was very old and had gray temples.

In front of the pulpit, a group of guards and nobles gathered. Qi Rusong wore a satin that symbolized his status, covered with filial piety clothes to commemorate his father, and wore a crown on his head, which was the most conspicuous in the crowd.

Su Yu, the princess of the southern realm, stood beside him, wearing a mourning gown and a tiara symbolizing the princess in her hair.

Wang Minjun also stood in the middle of the group, his long black hair was down, and he wore several silver bracelets on his wrists. I don't know why, why the former princess doesn't seem to be sad.

Under the command of a stout middle-aged man, a long line of spearmen guarded the crowd on the perimeter.

The bells stopped, and a silence slowly enveloped the entire Grand Square. Qi Rubai, the prince of the Southern Realm, raised his head and began to speak, but his voice was so angry that the crowd below couldn't hear what he said.

"What?" "Louder!"

Then the stone snake ordered a guard to pac behind Qi Rubai and poked him hard.

Qi Rubai raised his voice and started again: "I am the son of Qi Tai, the king of the southern realm, the son of Lingnan City, Qi Rubai." The louder he spoke, the louder his voice echoed through the square. I came here today to confess my illegal crime in front of everyone in Lingnan City! ”

The crowd below began to yell and scream, and the air was filled with all sorts of mockery and expletives. Wang Minjun buried his face deep between his hands.

Qi Rubai raised his voice again, trying to let everyone hear: "The sky is above, I betrayed my father, my brother." I betrayed the southern border, betrayed the Great Xia Kingdom, and betrayed my father's trust in me. ”

He shouted, "I swore to protect my brother, but in order to become king of the South, I plotted to depose and kill my father and make myself king."

At the same time, I have wronged my brother and made him suffer unjustified injustice. He even hired [Soul] villains to make innocent people in the south die.

Now, please let the second prince of the Great Xia Kingdom come from afar as a witness: my royal brother Qi Rusong is the legitimate heir of the southern border, he is the king of the southern border, and the guardian of the southern border of the Great Xia Kingdom. ”

A stone flew out of the crowd and hit Qi Rubai. The palace guards held him up, preventing him from falling, and a deep wound was smashed on his forehead, and blood was gushing down.

More stones followed, one striking the guard to his left, and one clanged right in the guard's chest.

"Silence, silence!" Yin Lin shouted to stop.

Then the old minister of the southern border knelt down in front of Qi Rusong and Gu Yang. "All men are guilty, so all men suffer." He said in a deep and deep voice, "This man confesses his crimes here in front of the heavens and the people of the South.

Heaven is just and merciful at the same time. Lord, second prince, what should I do with this sinner? ”

There was a lot of noise all around, Qi Rusong, and the king of the southern realm paced out from behind.

"This man has committed many crimes, and he should be beheaded according to the law." He said aloud, "But according to my Great Xia law, as long as he is willing to admit all his crimes, abandon his identity, and put on the black armor of the Demon Hunting Gate. From now on, destroy the demons and defend the way, and forgive their sins, so that they can be spared from death. ”

He turned to face his brother, "The sinner who kneels in front of me, are you willing to join the Demon Hunting Gate to atone for your sins?" ”

"I do!" His brother replied.

"That's good..."Qi Rusong nodded.

And when he was just about to announce the verdict, Gu Yang stepped forward. "Wait!" The second prince said loudly, "Lord Qi, how can my Great Xia Kingdom leave such a villain? ”

Qi Rusong looked at Gu Yang, "Second prince, what do you mean?" ”

"Mercy should not be given to such mad villains, as long as I am the prince of Great Xia one day, the crime of killing my father and rebelling will be severely punished!" Gu Yang said sharply, "Come on, cut off his head for me!" ”

The crowd was in an uproar. They pushed forward. Wang Minjun knelt on his knees and sobbed hysterically.

Qi Rusong grinned at him: "Do you really want to do this?" ”

Gu Yang shook his head, "I've made up my mind!" ”

As he spoke, the strong men of the second prince stepped forward.

On the pulpit, Gu Yang made a gesture, and his subordinates immediately gave the order. The guards pressed Qi Rubai against the marble slab, and his head and chest were exposed to the edge of the platform.

The strong man of the second prince drew a two-handed giant sword from behind his back, and then raised it high.

With the sword in his hand, the former prince of the southern realm was beheaded, and his wife collapsed to the ground at that moment and fainted.

After a commotion, the crowd in the square began to disperse, and the crowd gradually subsided, and people returned to their respective lives.

Gu Yang leaned into Qi Rusong's ear and said softly, "How is it?" Still satisfied? He said, "I will be the wicked, and you will be the good." ”

That scene just now was the result of their discussion...

Qi Rusong smiled, "In the future, I will do my best, and I will die." ”
