Being able to clear up ideas from the chaos is a kind of ability, a necessary ability for those who have achieved great things throughout the ages.

Xue Ming had always thought that he had this kind of ability, but now he began to feel as if he was still a little close.

inexplicably, there was an extra charge of seizing power and killing his father, which made him a little confused.

It stands to reason that with the Beiyuan tradition, this is not such a great sin, and it is not without coups that have been more bloody than this in the past, but the key is that this is not what Xue Ming wants.

Because of a miracle and a massacre, the imperial power of the Xue family is now in full swing.

If he returns to the old path of the king of the strong soldiers in the past, then he, the Yuan Emperor, will inevitably have to fight for many years before he can sit firmly on the throne.

So what he wants is to hold Xue Lu hostage, force him to abdicate, and then take over the imperial power that has been greatly strengthened in Xue Lu's hands in a stable and complete manner.

This was also the most fundamental intention of that ambush.

Of course, if Xue Lu dies unexpectedly, he will also be happy to hear about it, but this person should not be himself anyway.

He was able to securely hold the current position of the prince of the prison state because of Xue Lu's will, so that he could also take it for granted in the best order to succeed to the throne in the event of Xue Lu's death, rather than in the order from prince to prince as some people say.

But if he kills Xue Lu, then this order no longer exists, just like what Li Hua said that day, you can't kill Xue Lu under the banner of Xue Lu at the same time.

Thinking of this, Xue Ming became more and more irritable, and a figure hurriedly walked in and said, "Your Highness." ”

"Get out! don't bother me!"

"It seems that His Highness is indeed very upset. Not only did the person who came not leave, but they started talking to him.

Xue Ming turned his head and looked, "Oh, it's Brother Yu, find a place to sit." ”

Yu Nan stood in place, "What else is there to worry about at the moment, Your Highness?"

Xue Ming shook his head, "You don't understand." ”

"Your Highness's sacred heart is like an abyss, and Yu Nan really doesn't dare to speculate. But Yu Nan knew that he couldn't delay it at the moment. ”

Xue Ming raised his eyebrows, "Go on." ”

Yu Nan began with a question, "Does Your Highness believe in Mr. Zhen and Borhu?"

"Believe. ”

"Since you believe it, do you think they will kill Your Majesty against your will?"

"Naturally not, but the sword has no ......eyes," Xue Ming replied casually, his face changed suddenly, "You mean?"

Yes, the sword has no eyes, but Luanjia, who is at the core of hundreds of thousands of army guards, is it possible to be injured by the eyeless sword?

The answer must be no.

Yu Nan nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty was not killed by them, but by the rest of the people, and the blame was planted on our heads." ”

Xue Ming walked up to Yu Nan suddenly, "Then why don't we hurry up ......?"

Without waiting for Xue Ming to finish speaking, Yu Nan cut off Xue Ming's words with a wry smile, "Does Your Highness think it's possible?"

Xue Ming's expression of excitement just now dimmed, and he sighed: "It's really impossible, this Youyoukou has already put a king-killing hat firmly on my head. ”

"But that's not the most important thing. Yu Nan's brows tightened again, he looked at Xue Ming's puzzled eyes immediately, and sighed in his heart that this second prince, who seemed to be the most like Xue Lu, was not a grade worse than his father's level of strategy.

But isn't that what you want?

"Your Highness, think about it, are those people just trying to simply blame you? Even if the crime is confirmed, Emperor Yuan has already died, who will punish you?"

Xue Ming was not stupid at this time, and immediately reacted, "You mean they still want to enter the city to seize power?"

"Your Highness, don't forget, the 200,000 army is only defeated, not annihilated, and what Mr. Zhen and Bolhu really killed is only 20,000 at most. If the remaining 100,000 troops wanted to return to their respective territories, then why did they go to the Blue Wolf Plain before?"

Yu Nan continued: "Originally, we thought that His Majesty was in the army, so these people had to turn around, but now it seems that it is unknown when His Majesty will die, maybe the calculation of these people was originally to come to Immortal City to seize power!"

After a thorough analysis, Xue Ming instantly saw the light of day, and I have to say that this big-end Yuzhang Qilin is really in the belly, and the inference is infinitely close to the truth.

Xue Ming eagerly grabbed Yu Nan's shoulder, "Then now the plan will be released?"

Looking at Xue Ming's eyes, Yu Nan's expression was firm, "Your Highness only needs to do what you want." ”

"What do you want to do?"

Yu Nan nodded firmly, "The hundred officials are still forbidden in the palace, and they have not yet received the news, controlling the left and right prime ministers, and at the same time controlling the hundred officials on the basis of the officials who are attached to His Royal Highness, and taking charge of the court situation." ”

"Dominate, or at least keep Xue Wei neutral. ”

"Take over the city defense camp and defend the people who don't belong to us outside the Immortal City. ”

"Invite King Yong and Yuan Tao out, ascend the throne directly as a prisoner, and seize the name of righteousness. ”

"Then let Li Bingshan and Bedjia Shahai join forces, and at the same time issue an order to surrender, divide and dissolve, if the other party insists on resisting, kill it!"

Yu Nan's words carried a hot murderous aura, which made Xue Ming tremble a little.

He paced back and forth, "The prime minister on the left and right may not be so easy to comply. ”

"Then force them to comply!" Yu Nan was categorical.

A moment later, in the Hall of Eternal Life, Yu Nan looked at the left prime minister Boyan and the right prime minister Han Bai who came in a hurry, his eyes were gloomy, and his face showed grief, "Two prime ministers, father emperor...... It's dead!"

Because they have been isolated in the side hall group by layers of guards, the news that has almost spread throughout Immortal City has not yet reached their ears.

So on the faces of the two of them, they immediately revealed irrepressible horror, which was the most direct emotion in their hearts.

But after all, it is a person who has been in the sea for a long time, and the two of them understood almost instantaneously that the deceased is gone, and new talents are something that should be considered at the moment.

Thinking about it this way, the second prince found the two of them at this moment, and the meaning was very clear.

So, they need to play dumb.

In Xue Ming's astonishment, Boyan and Han Bai pounced, knelt on the ground, and cried.

Crying that

It's called a heartbreak, the liver and intestines are broken, a handful of snot and a handful of tears, all of which have no grace, and the sincerity of love and righteousness makes people can't bear to interrupt.

The corners of Xue Ming's mouth twitched: "Two, will it be too much?"

Han Bai wiped his snot, "Your Majesty is wise and martial, the brilliance is comparable to the rising sun, and now that he has died young, for Weichen, it is really like the sky collapsing, and he suddenly feels that the heavens and the earth are dark, and the sun and the moon are lightless." ”

Prime Minister Boyan of the left also wiped a handful of old tears, "The right prime minister is right!"

Han Bai quietly glanced at Beyondrock, and said in his heart, you don't even bother to think about your lines, it's too perfunctory!

He knelt on the ground, "Please ask Your Highness for permission, the minister will immediately return to the mansion to bathe, lead the whole mansion, and fast for His Majesty for three days." ”

The fox's tail is still exposed, Xue Ming smiled secretly in his heart, squatted down, and said sadly: "What the prime minister can think of, how can I, the son of my father, not think of it, don't worry, don't bother the right minister, I have already ordered someone to go to the mansion to inform." At the same time, in order to prevent the big end spies from taking advantage of the chaos, they have ordered people to firmly protect the mansions of the two prime ministers, so as to ensure that no thief can enter. ”

Seeing that Han Bai and Boyan's expressions were slightly stagnant, Xue Ming said in a low voice: "I have a matter, and I ask the two prime ministers to help." ”

Han Bai sat on the ground dejectedly and looked at Xue Ming, "Does Weichen still have a choice?"

Boyan smiled bitterly, the second prince's trick is indeed wonderful, he forcibly sealed the hundred officials in the palace that day, and his ears and eyes were cut off, once something happened, the hundred officials were just like fish and meat on the board, and he was just allowed to slaughter.

As for those who don't care about their families and relatives, how many can there be in the world?

Besides, the second prince is also surnamed Xue, maybe it's another wealth?

Since they had no choice, their minds began to quietly change.

Among the remaining hundred officials, there are already many people who have taken refuge in the second prince, and some of the third prince's camp have been able to grasp a lot of right to speak.

With the defection of the two prime ministers, the part that remained neutral gradually drifted away.

Even if the eldest prince's descendants were indignant, they couldn't stand this momentum, so they had to bury some thoughts and conspiracies deep in their hearts.

As for the heart to King Jing who is far away in Youyun Prefecture, it seems that there is no one on the surface.

After getting the hundred officials, it will be the turn of the city defense camp and the three things of King Yong and the Yuan family.

On the Yuan family's side, because of the ambush in the Blue Wolf Plains Mountain, Ma Lianshan became no longer so important, and Liu Yi could let it go;

Xue Ming's original intention was for him to visit King Yong, but Yu Nan persuaded him, the reason is also very simple, if His Royal Highness goes in person, once it doesn't work, there will be no room for turn, it's better for him to go first, it's natural to be, if it doesn't work, after he comes back to discuss, His Royal Highness can go again with some preparations.

Xue Ming agreed with his statement and personally went to the military department and several commanders in charge of the city defense to coordinate the defense of the city.

Yu Nan held Xue Ming's handwriting, went out of the palace gate, and went to King Yong's Mansion.

Passing by the Jingwang Mansion with the gate closed, Yu Nan sighed in his heart, because of the existence of the white-clothed sword immortal, the Jingwang Mansion, which should have been targeted first, has become a forbidden place that he dare not touch.

Come to the door of King Yong's Mansion and hand

The door-to-door post was soon introduced into the house.

About half an hour later, Yu Nan calmly walked out of the Yongwang Mansion and entered the palace again.

A few streets away from the Yongwang Mansion, the wide and luxurious Yuan Mansion is full of chickens and dogs.

Liu Yi, who had received Xue Ming's clear instructions, commanded the sergeants of the city defense battalion to blast open the gate of the Yuan Mansion, and did not care about the life or death of Ma Lianshan and Shi Youde.

But the Yuan family had to care, and took it out as a hostage, to bet on whether Liu Yi dared to gamble, this is okay, but if you really don't care about the life or death of these two originally innocent people, Yuan Mei really can't do this kind of thing.

So, that's how things evolved.

Yuan Mei subconsciously wanted to escape, but was firmly held down by the big butler, "Master, this is home, it is your last bottom line, where else can you hide?"

Fortunately, the prestige of the Yuan family is outstanding, and the order Liu Yi received was not to raid the house and exterminate the clan, after the city guards entered the mansion, they did not dare to do those things of burning, killing and looting.

The remaining shadow guards and family members held their blades firmly around Yuanmei, and their hearts were more than enough.

After all, it's just a family's guard, where can it really be compared to the imperial army.

Of course, whether there is a deeper hiding and consideration, then I don't know.

The whole Yuan family was driven into the wide courtyard in front of the main hall, noisy and frightened.

Liu Yi's originally happy face became gloomy again, because he didn't find Yuan Tao.

He walked in front of Yuan Mei, the shadow guards instantly clenched their knives, Liu Yi looked at the city defense camp behind him, and looked at Yuan Mei with a sneer, "Lord Xiao Yuan, do you still have to resist stubbornly? ”

Yuan Mei glanced at the number of women, old and young behind him, "Stand down." ”

The old butler looked at his nose and nose and his heart, and was indifferent.

So those shadow guards and family members had no choice but to retreat and stay aside.

Liu Yi stepped forward and looked at Yuan Mei condescendingly, "Lord Xiao Yuan, isn't Ling Zun sick?"

Yuan Mei was silent.

"Let me ask again, where is the old man?"

Yuan Mei was indifferent.

"Smack!" A loud slap slapped on Yuanmei's face, and the clear fingerprints with half of his cheeks instantly swollen.

Liu Yi said word by word: "Open your eyes and see the situation clearly!"

Yuan Mei reached out and wiped the corners of his mouth, looked at the scarlet blood on his hands, and looked at Liu Yi in disbelief.

"What? Strange? Someone in Eternal Life City actually dares to slap you? Let me tell you! If you don't tell the whereabouts of Lord Yuan today, I will not only beat you, but I will also kill someone!"

Liu Yi stepped forward quickly, grabbed a young woman's hair, and pulled her in front of Yuan Mei, "I'll count three times, if you don't say it, I'll cut her with a knife!"

Yuan Mei recognized that this was a niece of a side branch, and in addition to relying on the power of the Yuan family and showing off her wealth, Ping Suli had never done anything out of the ordinary.

He couldn't help but turn his head to look at the big butler who had been standing beside him as if asking for help, but the big butler was like a statue, ignoring Yuan Mei's eyes.

The woman trembled with fright and cried

Howling: "Master save me! Lord save me, I don't want to die yet!"

"Two!" Liu Yi snorted coldly again.

The woman trembled even more, and howled hoarsely, "Master...... Help me! I'm only eighteen, and I don't want to die yet!"

Yuanmei's hands couldn't help but tremble together, and the corners of his mouth and eyes couldn't help twitching.

Between life and death, there is great terror.

"Three!"

Liu Yi broke off, the cold light flashed, the woman's head rolled down, and the blood even splashed on Yuan Mei's cheek.

In a frightened scream, Liu Yi dragged another woman over and looked at Yuan Mei with a cruel smile, "Lord Xiao Yuan, if you don't open your mouth all the time, they will all die because of you?"

Yuan Mei bit his lip tightly, and on his clenched fists, green tendons burst out.

On the roof of a tall building in the distance, two people stood side by side.

One is dressed in white like a fairy, and the other is dressed in shamanic robes.

Yang Qing looked at Eile, "You don't care?"
