Empress can't eat enough

Chapter 111 Mutiny in the palace
Who would have thought that the rebels in the south seemed to have made an appointment with the barbarians in the north, and their offensives against the Zhou army became more and more fierce every time.On the day the crown prince's army, Haohao Tangtang, set off, the rebel army was like a broken bamboo, and they attacked Jiangling, which is only five hundred miles away from the capital city of Gyeonggi.

For a while, the court was in turmoil and people were panicked.

There are even more weird phenomena in the world. Rumors are spreading everywhere, saying that today's son has too many brothers' blood on his hands, and the soul of the sufferer is about to claim his life.

As for the emperor in the palace, he probably heard too many gossips, and was always haunted by nightmares for several nights in a row.He didn't believe in ghosts in the world, so he asked the inner court to investigate thoroughly.He wants to know who is behind the scenes.

When the people in the inner court were about to find out about Empress Xiao, the news that the prince was captured alive by the rebels spread to the palace, and the emperor finally became suspicious.

However, it is too late and the building will collapse.

The news that the prince was captured alive finally turned into the news that the prince led the rebels into the imperial city, and the people who opened the city gates were the people of Ping Ning Hou Zhou Fang.

The imperial guards in the palace had also been mastered by the Xiao clan long ago.When the prince held the sword and came to the Zichen Palace, and came to the emperor, the emperor's eyes were about to burst, like a trapped beast that had been betrayed by all relatives.

In grief and indignation, he could only point to the prince's nose and call him a "rebellious son".

"You were still in your infancy and I established you as the crown prince. This dragon chair will be yours sooner or later! What are you doing?" The emperor never thought that the person who would eventually rebel against him would be Prince Li Ji!

Li Ji, you gave him such a name, doesn't he understand?

Seeing his grief and indignation, the prince also trembled a little.

The awe of his father for more than ten or twenty years made him terrified.He didn't want to go this far, but he had to do it!

"Father..." Tears welled up in his eyes, and he explained tremblingly, "You forgive me, I don't even want to!"

"The queen mother said, if the emperor does not ascend the throne now, the emperor will definitely depose the minister! Even if the emperor does not want to depose the minister, then the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty will force you to depose the minister... The queen mother said, this time, I am afraid you I can't protect my son..."

"Stupid! Stupid! Extremely stupid!" The emperor scolded several times, "You can hear that stupid woman!? Even if I depose you as the crown prince, it is also an expedient measure! Since childhood, except you, I Did you say that you want to hand over this world to others?"

"Father..." Crown Prince Li Ji shook his head, "This is the end of the matter, and it is irreversible."

"You take your people out of Zichen Palace now, and I will let it go!" The emperor looked at him closely, thinking that he still had a chance.

"Father, will you abdicate?" Li Ji was not stupid.Although he didn't want to stand by killing his father, he was bound to take that position today!

He threw down the sword in his hand, and sincerely persuaded: "Father, my son will not kill you. As long as you hand over the Jade Seal of Chuanguo and draw up the edict of abdication, you can be your supreme emperor with peace of mind... My son will not kill you." Will kill you, definitely not!"

"Do you know that your actions today are enough to leave you with a bad reputation for thousands of years?" The emperor said angrily, "What difference does it make if you kill me or not? Go out now and cut off the head of the commander of the rebel army, and you will be the king of Qin escorting you!" Hero! Go quickly!"

At this time, Empress Xiao's elder brother Xiao Qi walked in wearing armor.

Holding a human head in his hand, he raised it and said to the prince: "The head of the rebel leader Qin Siren has been taken."

Prince Li Ji smiled, showing a sinister smile, very much like the emperor.But such a smile appeared on his face, but the emperor had never seen it before.

"Father, look!" He said proudly, "My son is already a great hero for King Qin's escort. It's a pity that they came too late, and the rebels had already entered the Zichen Palace, hurting Father's eye."

The emperor was horrified when he heard this.

Li Ji picked up the sword thrown by him again, and approached his father step by step.

"You... what are you going to do!? You bastard! What are you going to do?" The emperor stepped back step by step, his face full of fear.

"what--"

Finally, accompanied by a cold sword light, a shrill scream resounded throughout the hall.

Li Ji's sword slashed down, and directly slashed half of the emperor's face, just passing through one eye, and the blood lay down instantly, dripping down.

The emperor covered his eyes and knelt down on the ground, half of his face was stained red with blood, and even the robe in front of him was stained red.

Li Ji knelt down and tried to persuade him again: "Father, our Li family can't have a one-eyed emperor, right? Why don't you abdicate? My son has become the emperor, and I will respect you as before..."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a chill on his neck. When he looked down, he found a familiar public relations sword resting on his shoulder.

"Prince, you actually kill the king!" Zhou Da shouted.

Li Ji turned his head and found that all his cronies, including his uncle Xiao Qi, had been captured.

He looked at Zhou Fang in disbelief, but before he could open his mouth, Zhou Fang pulled his hand, and the sharp blade wiped his neck.

Immediately, blood flowed profusely, splashing onto the ground and the face of the emperor.

"Prince!" Fang Fang, who had lost one eye, recovered from the extreme shock.

He lost another son!His beloved son.

Li Ji's body trembled, his eyes widened, and he saw Huan Wang Li Mu walking in from the outside, holding the Jade Seal of Chuanguo, wearing black clothes and not stained with a speck of dust, and Pingning Hou Zhou Fang saw him, I saluted him solemnly...

Li Mu knelt in front of the emperor with nothing to look at, put the Chuanguo Yuxi aside, and said unhurriedly: "I am late to save you, please forgive my father."

Li Ji's vision was blurred, and he could not rest in peace.

Although the Son of Heaven has only one eye, he saw everything the moment Li Mu entered the hall.

"Hehehe..." He burst out laughing suddenly, blood was all over his gums.After laughing enough, he pounced on Li Mu, grabbed his clothes and said viciously, "It's you! It's you!"

Li Mu raised his eyes and looked straight at him with a calm expression.

He slightly raised his hand, signaling Zhou Fang and others to exit the hall.Immediately, he bit by bit peeled off the fingers that the Son of Heaven was holding on to, and said softly, "That's right, it's me."

Son of Heaven, what can you do with him?
He stood up slowly, with his hands behind his back, condescendingly looking down at the emperor on the ground, just now he smiled, and asked him: "It's not good to be betrayed by your relatives, is it?"

"I should have killed you long ago!" The emperor gritted his teeth, "I should have killed you when you were born!"

"Yeah!" Li Mu answered his words, but also asked the doubts in his heart: "Why didn't you kill him? It's obviously not your flesh and blood, but why did you keep it until today?"

"You...you know?" The Son of Heaven was shocked, "How did you know? Only I and your concubine know about this!"

He thought that no third person knew about this matter, therefore, after the execution of Concubine Gao, he regarded Li Mu as his son!
