Newly married in the bridal chamber, the regent has collapsed

The news that the father was seriously ill spread to the ears of almost every prince.

They are all staring at the throne.

That day, Eunuch Li walked out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation with tears in his eyes, and shouted hoarsely to the ministers standing outside the hall, "The emperor... died!"

The ministers outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation fell to their knees, and crying immediately sounded outside the hall.

At this time, it has become a mystery who the throne falls on.

The Minister of Rites looked at Eunuch Li who came out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, knelt on the ground, and said, "Eunuch Li, the emperor has passed away, so which prince will inherit the throne? A country cannot live without a king!"

Eunuch Li wiped away his tears and said in a sharp voice: "Master Shangshu's words are wrong, the emperor has just left, why are you in such a hurry, those who don't know think you have a different heart."

Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites was stunned for a moment, gritted his teeth, his face turned blue and white with anger.

This Eunuch Li...

However, Eunuch Li no longer cared about the face of the Minister of Rites, but took out an imperial decree from behind, and read it on his own.

Rao, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, who had a vicious face just now, closed his mouth at this moment, staring at the imperial decree with a pair of small eyes.

"By heaven and earth, the emperor ordered that the ninth prince of the dynasty, Su Li, is gentle and close to the people. I appreciate it very much. I hereby pass on the throne to this son, and hereby—"

As soon as the words fell, the ministers kneeling in front of the Hall of Mental Cultivation looked at each other in disbelief.

Especially the other princes who listened to the decree couldn't believe it when they heard that Su Li had ascended the throne and won the favor of his father.

The eldest prince said: "Eunuch Li, can you confirm that you read correctly?"

Eunuch Li snorted coldly, "Hmph! This old servant is the servant of the emperor. Even if you give him a hundred courage, this servant will not dare to go against the will of the imperial decree and let other people who shouldn't have such an idea come to power. ah."

Unexpectedly, the servants around the father dared to rush at him like this. The eldest prince almost couldn't believe it, "I don't believe it! As the eldest son of the father, the father loves me very much. How could he pass on the throne to me?" Give Su Li that trash!"

Eunuch Li's face darkened instantly, "Are you doubting the emperor?"

The eldest prince still couldn't believe it, and even stretched out his hand to snatch the imperial decree from Eunuch Li's hand. When he lowered his head and saw that the content in the imperial decree was indeed consistent with what he said, he sneered in his heart.

Father is afraid that he was blindfolded!

Eunuch Li watched the eldest prince snatch the imperial edict, and immediately stepped forward, intending to snatch the imperial edict, "Eldest prince, this is an order from the former emperor, please don't make things difficult for the slave."

However, the First Prince raised his head, glanced coldly at Eunuch Li, his voice was so gloomy that he almost squeezed out water, "What if I don't?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in front of the Hall of Mental Cultivation was shocked.

Could it be that the First Prince is plotting against him?
The rest of the people were frightened by the courage of the eldest prince.

Eunuch Li was stunned, "What does the eldest prince mean by this?"

The eldest prince said: "It means literally."

"Literally?" A gleam seemed to flash in Eunuch Li's slender eyes, "Could it be that the eldest prince wants to rebel?"

Looking at the eunuch with a cold expression in front of him, the first prince's disgust for him almost reached its peak.

The sky also seemed to confirm the atmosphere in front of the Hall of Mental Cultivation at this time. Dark clouds were pressing on the Forbidden City, and lightning tore the dark clouds into several cracks.

It seems to be raining.

Su Li knelt in front of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, watching the confrontation between Eunuch Li and the eldest brother, his heart sank, and he walked over directly.

He stretched out his hand, wanting to snatch the imperial decree from Brother Huang's hand, but the man in front of him saw it. Brother Da Huang looked at Su Li in front of him, "Ninth Brother, what do you want?"

Brother Huang's aura rushed towards his face, if it was normal, Su Li would definitely be so frightened that his legs would go limp.

But who he is now is not what he was before.

Su Li raised his eyebrows and said mockingly: "Brother Emperor, what do I want, don't you know? Now, you should call me the emperor."

The eldest prince snorted coldly and said: "The enthronement ceremony has not yet been held, who knows if the imperial father's temporary edict has been tampered with."

He became annoyed again, "Hmph, let's talk about why the ninth brother suddenly disappeared for a while before. It turned out that he was hiding his clumsiness."

This is outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Eunuch Li is still holding the imperial decree, Su Li thought, no matter how courageous his imperial brother is, he would not rebel not long after his father died.

Thinking of this, Su Li became more courageous, "Brother Huang, you are flattering the younger brother when you say that. But what the younger brother said is right, the younger brother is still the younger brother of the younger brother before the enthronement ceremony. "

The elder brother sneered, "The emperor is telling the truth now, but it's a pity, you must not be able to sit firmly on the throne."

Su Li was startled, "Brother Huang, what do you mean by that? Father, his bones are not cold, what do you mean?!"

The color of the eldest prince's eyes changed slightly, and the soft sword at his waist came out of its sheath, and a cold light flashed in front of his eyes. Su Li looked in disbelief at the elder brother who had been kind to him in the past, and the sharp sword in his hand was directly aimed at him. chest.

He never thought that the big emperor brother would treat him like this, his body seemed to be frozen in place, and he was completely motionless.

Eunuch Li was terrified, and his voice became much thinner, "Come on, hurry up! Protect the Ninth Prince!"

What happened was so sudden that the surrounding guards didn't react at all.

"Puff—" was the sound of a sharp sword piercing into flesh and blood.

Su Li stared wide-eyed at the elder brother in front of him, a mouthful of blood spattered from his mouth.

Severe pain swept through his whole body, blood gushed out of his throat non-stop, and the smell of blood filled the tip of his nose and throat, making him tremble all over.

The temperature in the body seemed to dissipate inch by inch, Su Li felt so cold.

He was finally about to ascend the throne. Could it be that he was about to die because of his carelessness?

The eldest prince seemed to find it unsatisfactory, and he pulled out the sharp sword that had pierced Su Li's chest, with a sharp smile on the corner of his mouth, "Brothers, give it to me, today's throne is not mine, and I have to be mine!"

The eldest prince is ruthless, full of courage, and has won the support of many people in the court.

There was a thousand responses, and as soon as the words fell, many people who were still bowing their heads in surrender, had already stood up, drew their sharp swords out of their sheaths, and rushed towards Su Li.

Eunuch Li couldn't believe it as he looked at the black soldiers rushing towards him, and broke into a cold sweat for a moment, "You... the bones of the former emperor are not cold, you are planning to rebel!"

He looked at Su Li who was stabbed again, and hurriedly stepped forward to support him, "Ninth Prince, how are you doing?"

"Quick, imperial physician, imperial physician, come quickly." Eunuch Li wanted to help Su Li into the Hall of Mental Cultivation, but was stopped by the eldest prince who stepped forward.

"Eunuch Li." The eldest prince smiled charmingly, "Ninth Brother, he must die."

The sharp sword that had just been pierced into the flesh was still dripping with blood, and the First Prince pointed the blade at Eunuch Li with a threatening tone.

The piercing pain in his chest spread to all his limbs, Su Li looked at Eunuch Li next to him, and said softly, "Li, Eunuch Li, you, you go..."

"But……"

While Eunuch Li hesitated, the sharp sword roared towards him.

Eunuch Li immediately protected Su Li under his body, and at the same time shouted at the imperial physician who was guarding the late emperor, "Hurry up and save the Ninth Prince!"

Saying that, he pushed Su Li who was still injured into the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Su Li looked at Eunuch Li who was protecting him, feeling hopeless in his heart.

He is still too weak.

A deep sense of powerlessness enveloped him. He was helped up by the imperial doctor who was so frightened that he was hiding in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, but he saw the sharp sword piercing Eunuch Li's chest with his own eyes.

"Eunuch Li..."

Su Li murmured, tears of regret welling up in his eyes.

Outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Eunuch Li looked at the sharp sword on his chest, and his heart sank, "Prince, are you really going to kill this old slave?"

An incomparable determination flashed across his face, but no one knew that Eunuch Li's palms were basically covered in cold sweat.

The Ninth Prince must not die. He must complete the task assigned to him by the late emperor.

The First Prince laughed out loud as if he had heard something funny, "Where did Eunuch Li and my haughty look just go? It turns out...you are also regretting your life."

The eldest prince wiped the blood from his hands, and said persuasively, "As the eunuch next to the emperor, you naturally know a lot of things. I really don't intend to kill you, but Su Li will die, but if you support this king, Maybe this king can spare the life of the emperor. Eunuch Li, what do you think?"

The eldest prince is not a fool. Seeing Eunuch Li's frown, he guessed something, "Don't think that if you don't tell this king, you can delay the time for the person inside. This is all useless work, Eunuch Li. do you know?"

What was in his mind was guessed. After all, Eunuch Li had been the eunuch beside the late emperor for many years. He said without changing his face: "The eldest prince is right, but you know that in front of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he will be beheaded." sin?"

Hearing these words, the First Prince laughed loudly, "Decapitation? If this king is in this position, how can he be decapitated?!"

Eunuch Li: "You... the eldest prince, you... hey!"

The Forbidden City was in chaos at this time. Yan Jue, who got the news, frowned when he came to the Forbidden City on horseback.

He was followed by three thousand forbidden soldiers, and after he gave some orders to these soldiers, he used lightness kung fu alone and came to the roof of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

When he saw a man with an unfamiliar face pointing at Eunuch Li with a sharp sword, Yan Jue frowned slightly, a little puzzled.

He got the news that Su Li was injured and the eldest prince rebelled, thought about it, could it be that the one holding the sharp sword is the eldest prince?

Thinking of this, Yan Jue sneered.

How dare he bully his brother?die!
The Forbidden City was surrounded by rebels, the sky was dark and gloomy, and the sound of slaughter resounded in the high palace walls. It seemed to be isolated from the world, but this was a critical period for Dongyue's fate.

Due to long-term lack of training, the guards in the palace were not the opponents of the rebels who had been prepared for a long time, and soon fell into a disadvantage.

Coupled with the news that the rebels kept yelling about Su Li's injury, the soldiers standing on Su Li's side were shaken, they ran and fled, and they were defeated.

"Boom——" the thunder roared in the sky, resounding through the sky.

The black clouds squeezed together, and after a while, the bean-sized raindrops fell in torrents.A sense of gloom swept across the entire capital, covering the already unsettled Forbidden City with a thick layer of low-pressure atmosphere.

Yan Jue frowned and glanced at the sky, slowly raised his hand, and murmured: "It's raining."

This also seemed to be an omen, indicating that today, there would definitely be a bloody storm in the capital.

Yan Jue looked at Eunuch Li's increasingly excited expression, as well as the embarrassment on that strange face, and sneered in his heart, rainwater slid down the armor from his body.

With the sharp sword out of the sheath at his waist, he hid in the dark, watching the rebel army break through the soldiers and rush towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

The sound of rain echoed crisply in his ears, and Yan Jue turned sideways, listening to the conversation between the two.

The eldest prince looked at Eunuch Li in front of him, he glanced at the soldiers who were about to rush up behind him, and laughed loudly, "Eunuch Li, you dare to hand over your father's will to the ninth brother with such confidence, it must be because of your father The emperor still has a backhand."

Eunuch Li's desolate expression turned into surprise.He snorted coldly, "The eldest prince's words are wrong. The last emperor's last edict was only this one from the beginning to the end. The servant is just following orders."

"Heh! Eunuch Li, do you want to deceive this king?" The first prince heard the louder and louder sound of iron hooves, and couldn't stop his complacency. Issuing the last emperor's edict, this king can spare you and that trash from dying."

"Eldest Prince, why don't you kill the slave right now, so that even if you rise to the top, it won't be worthy of your name. Let the people of the world come and see how you came to the top."

These words seemed to hit the First Prince's pain point, his eyes instantly turned scarlet, his body trembled with anger, and a terrifying aura emanated from his whole body.

He raised his hand, raised the sharp sword that was shining with cold light and washed by the rain, and swung it towards Eunuch Li's fragile neck.

The sharp sword was on the neck, and the sharp blade cut a red mark on the fragile skin, and a trace of blood overflowed from the wound.

There was a cold smile on the corner of Eunuch Li's mouth. The emperor told him before that if someone wants to rebel and usurp the throne, he must die without proof, so that the person's name will not be right, and he will risk being accused by the world and be charged with treason.

"Eunuch Li, do you want to say it or not!" The eldest prince roared angrily, his big hands trembling, as if he was going to do it the next moment.

Eunuch Li's eyes dimmed, but his expression was determined, "Prince, do you want the slave to die or live as a slave, don't you already have the answer in your heart?"

"Ah! I want you to die!" Seeing a servant being so coerced by him, the eldest prince still didn't let go, and was instantly angry.

Because he is the eldest prince, his mother has been full of expectations for him since he was a child, and the slave maids around him also said that he will be the emperor in the future, but why!
Why did the royal father love him so much, but he was unwilling to give the throne to him, but to that useless ninth brother!
He doesn't agree!
Losing his mind, he raised the sharp sword in his hand and swung it towards Eunuch Li's neck.

But the next moment——
