Chapter 424: Borrowing a knife to kill
King Xian remembered the scene when Prime Minister Li Cheng found him, at that time, he never expected to hear such exciting news.
The eldest brother would actually think of such a method, which seems to be smart, but has endless troubles. Wouldn't it be a waste to really send the handle to him, and he didn't use it?
King Rui's heart was shocked, and cold sweat broke out in his palms instantly, but he pretended to be calm.
"What do you mean by that? Don't you have long eyes? Dare to question the identity of the prince! ”
"Brother Emperor, don't pretend, if he is really the prince, he should be able to take out the crown prince seal and take a look with us, right?"
King Rui's hand behind his back was clenched tightly, he didn't know how these people knew, he was not the real Xiling Yu by his side.
But now is not the time to think about this, he can only delay the time, waiting for his people to save him.
It's just that King Rui doesn't know that those masters in his mansion have already gone to chase the "thieves" who broke into the mansion, and they don't know what is happening in the palace at this moment.
"Come on, protect His Royal Highness the Prince."
The forbidden army obeyed the order and protected King Rui and the prince beside him, after all, in their opinion, this Xiling Yu did not see a fake.
Prime Minister Li stepped forward, held up a volume of edicts, and slowly unfolded them. And read it out.
"King Rui covets the position of the prince, replacing the truth with the false, everyone gets it, the prince Xiling Yu, handwriting!"
When the commander of the forbidden army saw the bright red seal, he was shocked, and suddenly turned back to look at the prince behind him.
Li Chengxiang shouted:
"Don't take down King Rui and the counterfeits he found!"
The Commander of the Forbidden Army thought for only a moment, then turned the tip of his sword towards King Rui.
"Take it!"
No matter how strong King Rui was before, today in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, committing such a great crime of rebellion is already the general trend.
"I see who dares!"
King Rui showed his usual momentum.
"The Great Seal of the Prince has been stolen! The prince is really here, you don't recognize people, only a dead thing! How ridiculous? ”
"Hmph."
Prime Minister Li snorted coldly and walked in front of the prince. Reached out and touched his face. King Rui watched him move from the sidelines, his eyes were deep, and he didn't stop it.
And this little prince, although his body trembled slightly, he did not dodge.
The smugness on Prime Minister Li's face gradually faded and turned solemn. Turning his gaze from King Rui's face to the little prince's face, he looked at it carefully.
I touched his hair again, and his heartbeat gradually became chaotic, what was going on? Could it be that Jun Lingyun deceived him?
This time it was the turn of King Rui to snort coldly.
"Prime Minister Li, can you see clearly? Is he the crown prince or not? ”
Seeing this, King Xian pushed away Prime Minister Li Cheng, who was already sluggish, and went to find it himself. After looking for a long time, the civil and military officials behind them were all anxious.
Only then did King Xian straighten up and look at Prime Minister Li Cheng with a puzzled expression. What's going on? Didn't Prime Minister Li swear that the prince in the palace was fake?
What's wrong with this? This skin is clearly raised by his father's mother, and there is no trace of disfigurement!
Jun Lingyun, who was hiding on the roof of the palace and peeking, also frowned slightly, unable to figure out the key.
Gesturing to Bai Xiao and instructing him to bring Xiling Yu into the palace.
He didn't want Xiling Yu to show up, but now it seems that it is not possible not to show up, so he will solve King Rui first.
The commander of the Forbidden Army no longer knows who to listen to. Prime Minister Li Cheng and King Xian, who came with great fanfare, could not retreat easily.
retreated this time, but let King Rui grab the handle, where can there be a way to live in the future?
It's better to take down King Rui regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, anyway, outside the palace, they still have General Xu Guang to support them.
Since they are all reasonable, they are harder than fists. If King Rui is allowed to get out this time, he will be on guard, and those masters in his house will not be vegetarians.
The two sides were facing each other, and behind the ministers, a familiar voice suddenly sounded.
"The prince of Xizhao Kingdom, Xiling Yu, holds the seal of the prince here. In the name of the crown prince given by my father, I will order you and others to capture the rebellious King Rui and kill him! ”
Xiling Yu's chest rose and fell, but his voice was as steady as possible.
All the courtiers present, including King Xian and Prime Minister Li Cheng, were completely stunned at this moment, looking left and right.
"This, these two people are exactly the same, huh?"
"How can there be two highnesses of the crown prince?"
Whether it was the prince's seal that was stolen or the prince himself was counterfeited, it was unclear for a while.
Under this kind of impact, naturally no one cared, and there was a strange guard beside Xiling Yu.
King Rui's eyes were split.
"He is a fake, the thief who stole the prince's seal!"
Everyone looked at King Rui and was speechless.
Ruiwang, are you serious? Just this seven or eight-year-old kid in front of you? The thief who stole the Great Seal of the Prince? How did you tie the two?
King Xian walked to Xiling Yu, who was holding the big seal, and looked at it carefully, no! Again, there is no trace of disfigurement!
Who can tell him, what the hell is going on?
Prime Minister Li Cheng suddenly blessed his soul and shouted:
"Since the two look exactly the same, the one who holds the prince's seal must be the real prince, so there is no need to doubt it! Lost the Prince's Seal? Is that still worthy of being the crown prince? This argument is simply ridiculous! Your Majesty, respect the order of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! Kill the rebel! ”
Prime Minister Li Cheng took the lead in kneeling down and saluting Xiling Yu. The courtiers who were originally on Prime Minister Li Cheng's side naturally fell to their knees on the ground, and their voices were like a bell:
"Your Majesty, obey the orders of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! Kill the rebel! ”
In this way, it is back to the situation at the beginning, which side can win, just depends on how the commander of the forbidden army chooses.
As a last resort, they don't want General Xu Guang to enter the palace, in case General Xu takes the opportunity to bite them back and directly establishes himself as the king, what can they do?
The best situation is that the forbidden army comes forward and strangles King Rui!
The commander of the forbidden army has always only guarded the emperor's lineage, and at this time it is also a little unclear, which is true and which is false.
At this time, Rui Wang began to lure:
"As long as you help this king this time, this king will definitely record your merits, and when the crown prince ascends the throne, he will be rewarded for his merits!"
King Xian sneered.
"Brother Emperor, your eyes will be repaid, my brother knows it very well. Today they have offended you, you are talking about it at the moment, in the future, you will definitely settle accounts after the autumn, right? ”
"You! The king does what he says! ”
King Rui gritted his teeth and spit out the words, but was ironically replied by King Xian.
"Heh, when it comes to doing it, is that still the eldest brother?"
There were already people in the forbidden army who quietly took a few steps back, and since the commander didn't give the order, it was not too much for them to stay out of the matter, right?
The commander of the forbidden army personally stepped forward and checked the two princes, but there was still no way to distinguish them.
If he, like his subordinates, stays out of the matter today, he will be useless in the future, no matter who ascends the throne.
For the sake of his own future, the commander of the forbidden army made up his mind and knelt down in front of Xiling Yu, who had the seal of the crown prince.
"Your Majesty, obey the orders of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! Kill the rebel! ”
King Rui was shocked, but all the courtiers breathed a sigh of relief, so the overall situation has been decided.
"Kill!"
The commander of the forbidden army gave an order, and King Rui was instantly overwhelmed by the forbidden army, and he could only hear the sound of swords.
and the useless roar of the Wise King:
"You are bold! None of them are eligible to inherit the throne, they are ......"
