Royal Master Painter

Chapter 324 Death of Emperor Xuan
"It was you who woke me up?" Emperor Tianzuo looked at Zhao Zongchang suspiciously.

"My child begged for an extremely precious pill, so I hurriedly sent it to you, Father, it seems to be effective," Zhao Zongchang said excitedly.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Tianzuo's face turned pale in an instant, and he covered his chest with his hands, and it took a long time for him to recover.

"Father, what's wrong with you?" Zhao Zongchang's heart rose to his throat.

Emperor Tianzuo touched Zhao Zongchang's head, with a bit of doting in his eyes.

"You idiot, you idiot, your methods are much worse than those of your younger brothers."

"Hurry up, hurry up..."

Before Emperor Tianzuo could finish his sentence, there was an even more unbearable colic in his chest. Emperor Tianzuo lay on the dragon bed and endured the violent struggle. A mouthful of blood spattered directly on the dragon pillar and passed out.

"Father, Father..." Zhao Zongchang hurriedly shouted.

"Come on, there are assassins"

The sound of arresting assassins came from outside the bedroom, and the uniform footsteps of soldiers came. At this time, Zhao Zongchang was completely in disarray.

Not a panacea?Why did Emperor Tianzuo seem to be more seriously injured after taking it.

Before he had time to think about it, someone rushed into the bedroom. When he saw Zhao Qingyang smiling in the prince's crown and Zhao Zhang beside him, Zhao Zongchang finally thought of a possibility that would make his bones go limp.

Zhao Zhang has been bought by Zhao Qingyang, and it is even possible that Zhao Qingyang gave him this elixir. This is not a panacea but a poison pill.The purpose is to use his hands to get rid of Emperor Tianzuo, the obstacle to his ascension to the throne.

"It's you... It's you who plotted against me!" Zhao Zongchang pointed at Zhao Qingyang, his hands trembling tremblingly.

"I plot against you? You must not wrong me, I have always been with Sui Xian"

Zhao Qingyang was in a very good mood, as long as he took the medicine, Emperor Tianzuo would be dead, he could kill two birds with one stone, he could get rid of the eldest prince and ascend the throne logically.

He couldn't enjoy this good show alone, so Zhao Qingyang specially invited Zhao Suixian to enjoy this good scene of killing his father together.

How did Zhao Zongchang know that this feminine Zhao Qingyang, who looked like a woman, was actually so vicious.

"Zhao Qingyang, the one lying on the dragon bed is your father!" Zhao Zongchang shouted.

"I know that I have a deep relationship with my father and son, and I am full of grief and anger at this moment, so I must punish you, the murderer."

Zhao Qingyang was also talking nonsense with his eyes open.

"Come on, take him down!"

"Zhao Qingyang, you must die badly"

Zhao Zongchang knew that Emperor Tianzuo was doomed, and he himself was doomed. Killing the emperor was a threat, and the entire Xuan Kingdom couldn't tolerate him, even the unfathomable Emperor Teacher of Bafu couldn't save him. he!
"I'm very tolerant, even if you curse me so much, I'm still not going to kill you"

"The prince is merciful," Zhao Zhang boasted from the side.

"The biggest shortcoming of me is that my heart is too kind."

Seeing the two perform like this, Zhao Suixian felt heavy. It should be that they teamed up to trick Zhao Zongchang, but he didn't have any evidence!
"Prince, now you should collect the corpse for His Majesty, and then choose an auspicious day to be buried in the imperial mausoleum, and then ascend the throne!" Boyinzhi said beside him.

"Zhao Rang, I will leave this matter to you. The emperor has worked hard for the country, so he must announce it to the world and make it grand!"

After Zhao Qingyang gave his orders, he turned around and left, preparing for his enthronement. If he could invite the tycoon of the Mo family to visit him personally, his status would be unshakable. As for going in to see the deceased Emperor Tianzuo, he had no such intention at all.

Like Zhao Qingyang, Zhao Suixian also had no mood to see Emperor Tianzuo, and he had no feelings when he was alive, let alone now that he was dead.

Zhao Zongchang was paralyzed and carried to the prison. His face was livid along the way. He lost and couldn't even save his life.

"Prince, are you going to admit defeat like this?" Zhao Rang asked suddenly.

"So what if I don't admit defeat, even if I go to beg Zhao Qingyang now, he won't let me go." Zhao Zongchang's face was gloomy.

"I don't know if the eldest prince dares to give it a shot." Zhao Rang had a sinister smile on his face.

"Wrestle? Then what is the fight, what qualifications do I have to fight?"

Zhao Rang took out a golden token from his sleeve, with dragons and phoenixes carved on it, which was extremely noble.

"Is this the Emperor Xuan's decree?"

Emperor Xuan's decree is a token handed down from the first generation of emperors. The holder of the decree can take over all important military affairs of Daxuan. Its status is second only to the emperor. It has always been given to the prince by the emperor before his death, and it has also become the imperial power. symbol.

Zhao Qingyang has not been in court for so many years, so he didn't know there was such a token at all.

Zhao Zongchang's thoughts came alive again, Emperor Tianzuo was dead, and the new emperor hadn't ascended the throne yet, he could do whatever he wanted during this period with this token.

"Father didn't give Emperor Xuan's order to Zhao Qingyang? Why did you give it to me!"

Zhao Zongchang was scared by Zhao Zhangkeng just now, so he was more careful.

"The First Prince also knows that what His Majesty wants to do most in his life is to free the royal family from the control of the Eight Houses. The Fourth Prince is from the Mo House. The situation forced His Majesty to pass on the crown prince to him, but His Majesty's favorite thing is Your eldest prince.

Therefore, His Majesty has already ordered that in an emergency, the token should be handed over to you. If the throne can be expected, I can wish you a helping hand. If nothing can be done, it can be regarded as saving your life. "

"Father..." Zhao Zongchang wailed loudly while holding the heavy Emperor Xuanling.

"Whether to escape or fight, you can see for yourself"

Zhao Zongchang thought about it. With Emperor Xuan, he might be able to escape from Daxuan City, but in the future, after Zhao Qingyang succeeds to the throne, he will be hunted all over the world. Where can he escape?It's better to fight one last time!
"Zhao Rang, what is the current cultivation level of the strongest person in the Duyu Department?"

"To the eldest prince, His Majesty has cultivated the Du Yu Department at all costs these years, and now the strongest members of the Du Yu Department have even surpassed He Jizhen, the fanatic of Siming!"

"it is good"

This doubled Zhao Zongchang's confidence. With such a strong man in the Du Yu Department, he dared to make this risky decision.

"Zhao Rang, take me to the Duyu Office!"

"Yes"

Originally, those who detained him knelt on the ground after seeing Emperor Xuan's decree, not even daring to lift their heads.

The Du Yu Department is a force secretly cultivated by Emperor Tian Zuo for the royal family in order to fight against the Eight Houses. It spent most of the wealth and resources of the royal family treasury. There are nearly a thousand enlightened warriors alone, and many of them are proficient in martial arts. Those who are powerful in the secret art of the palace, these people are Zhao Zongchang's greatest confidence to turn the tables.

The Martial Mansion's recruitment of students is limited to the Hongdu Mansion, but the imperial family can find talents from the entire Xuan Kingdom, and gather these people under the imperial family's tent. This is one of the reasons why the Eighth Mansions want to compete for the throne.

No matter which prefecture the emperor is from, he will continuously select available materials from the entire empire for the academy and send them to the eight prefectures.

One of the reasons why Confucian Mansion is firmly seated as the No. [-] school in Yuling Continent is that the emperors of all dynasties all came from Confucian Mansion, which has the largest source of students and high prestige.
