Chapter 369
After all, it wasn't conspiracy to usurp the throne, Xuan Ling didn't kill a lot when he led the Imperial Forest Army into the palace.

Therefore, in the entire imperial palace, except for the battle situation in the Palace of Qinzheng, which was a little bit more tragic, other places were not damaged too much, so it was very convenient to clean up, and it was also very convenient to conceal what happened yesterday.

It's just——Xiao Que looked at the dragon couch in the Qinzheng Hall, and a trace of cold sarcasm flashed in his eyes. He was afraid that Emperor Zhao would not dare to stay in the Qinzheng Hall anymore. Here, he was almost raped by his own son. The arrow took his life.Although Xuanling's remonstrance subsided, he would not be able to rest for an unknown number of days and nights.

Emperor Zhao had already moved to the side hall of Qinzheng Hall, and the imperial doctors were busy administering acupuncture and prescribing medicine.

When Xiao Que came in, he signaled Xia Shouzhong and the imperial doctors to leave. He walked to the window and wanted to open it—this is a side hall, and the lighting is naturally not as good as that of the main hall. Disgusting, Xiao Que wanted to open the window for some air.

"Don't open the window!" Emperor Zhao, who was seriously ill, stopped Xiao Que and said, but Xiao Que pushed the window open without any hesitation...

The wind in early summer brings a little heat. The wind blows in, and the scent of flowers from the late-blooming crabapple planted by the window is blown in. In the air, there is a scent of flowers and a sweet smell of blood...

The blood in front of the jade steps of the Palace of Qinzheng had already been washed away by Xia Shouzhong, and the water was splashed on the jade steps, and the blood was washed away, but the smell of blood could not be washed away.

Emperor Zhao looked at the young man by the window with cloudy eyes. The early summer sun shone on his body, warmly outlining his outline, bright and beautiful, and his youthful vitality made people jealous...

There are two monarchs and ministers, one lying on the couch and the other standing by the window.One is radiant behind the other, and the other is cold and rotten. Emperor Zhao always held the white jade wrench in his hand, with such strength that it seemed as if he wanted to clamp the white jade wrench deep into his palm and melt into his blood.

Emperor Zhao didn't seem to want to show weakness in front of Xiao Que, and struggled to get up, but because of his serious illness and the shock of last night, after several efforts, he failed, Xiao Que looked at him coldly all the time, and said lightly: "The emperor take care Dragon body..."

Seeing that Xiao Que had no intention of helping at all, Emperor Zhao also gave up struggling and looked at Xiao Que, although his body was weak, but his eyes were inexplicable, and the first sentence he spoke to Xiao Que was: "How is the prince?" ?”

He didn't call Xuanling by name, but called him the prince. Xiao Que smiled mockingly, and said clearly: "The prince is the prince, and the only person in the world who can deal with the prince is you, the emperor." Naturally, I dare not make decisions privately, but I was detained in the cold palace, waiting for the emperor to dispose of you..."

It was clearly a respectful word, and a respectful tone, but that expression was clearly sarcasm.Emperor Zhao's anger was born from his heart, and he wanted to explode, but he didn't have any strength at all. He coughed a few times and calmed down and said, "It's good that you know, even if the crown prince did something wrong, he is still my only son, without my will. , no one can touch him!"

Last night's thrilling, at the moment when Xiao Que returned to the palace in time, the terrible possibility that Emperor Zhao had vaguely guessed in his heart finally got a certain kind of verification. Where is there such a coincidence in the world? There was no warning in advance, but how could King Xiao Queqin come to rescue him in such a timely manner.

Such a scene is so similar to that year——

Back then, he used tricks to drive a wedge between the King of Qin and the late emperor, causing discord between father and son, making the two of King Qin and the first emperor suspicious of each other; At that time, King Qin was punished to introspect in the palace.In the end, this incident became the last straw that overwhelmed the relationship between father and son, monarch and minister. Qin Wang took the opportunity to instigate the other two princes to conspire against each other.

At that time, the first emperor was hunting in the palace on the cliff of death, unaware that the world in the capital had changed, and everything was in his plan.The king of Qin rebelled, he gained the trust of the late emperor and took the military amulet to go to Beijing to quell the chaos. Except for the king of Qin, the other two kings surrendered without a fight. Everything was in his plan, except for King Nie.

He had already wanted to kill King Nie, because the two brothers turned against each other because of the Chaoyun incident, when Chaoyun knew his plan and begged him to spare King Nie, his words became King Nie's death talisman.

After the Rebellion of the Five Kings was settled, he took control of everything in the capital—until he finally took control of the entire palace and forced the late emperor to abdicate. The most filial son.

In the end, the first emperor was pissed off by him, so what?Since ancient times, kings and bandits have been defeated, and it is the King of Qin and others who have left their stigma in the history books, and he is the biggest winner.

The first emperor only saw the truth of everything on the day when he forced the palace, but he was not the first emperor—the moment he saw Xiao Que, he saw everything clearly. Xiao Que contributed a lot to the prince's forced palace today.

When thinking of this, Emperor Zhao suddenly laughed, the bloody air from the outside entered into his lungs, he coughed desperately, with a bloody smell in his cough, and said: "Do you hate me like this?"

Emperor Zhao's cold eyes fell on Emperor Zhao, and he couldn't see his expression clearly against the light: "The debts owed by those who died back then must be recovered on their behalf."

Xiao Que did not deny his purpose, and said lightly: "According to your opinion, the emperor, the matter of the prince forcing the palace yesterday did not leak the slightest word. Even if the emperor can hide what happened last night from the world, but last night the prince did not say anything about it. The emperor's sword is on the line, can the emperor let go of what happened last night? Or there is no grudge between the prince and the prince?"

There was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth—that ironic smile, which seemed to be playing with everyone's fate.

He knew Emperor Zhao's character - compared to Xuan Ling, Emperor Zhao was more afraid of Xiao Que.Although what Xuan Ling did last night was unforgivable and enough to cause him to die thousands of times, but if Xuan Ling died, who would be able to restrain Xiao Que?
Emperor Zhao was very suspicious, and no one was at ease, but his heirs were weak. In order to repeat the mistakes of the previous emperor, several other princes went to their own fiefs after they became adults. Xuanling who stayed in the capital was the most outstanding of his sons. One, he has always trained him as the crown prince.Even if Xuan Ling rebelled against him, even if he couldn't tolerate Xuan Ling changing to other princes, not to mention that none of the princes could have the talent and courage of a crown prince, and time alone was not enough.

In a short period of time, how can he support a person who can compete with Xiao Que?
Xuan Ling couldn't stay, but no one could restrain Xiao Que after killing Xuan Ling.Xiao Que's move clearly pushed Emperor Zhao into a dilemma.

How many years have you been planning in secret with such confidence?
Such a mocking smile, such similar facial features made Emperor Zhao extremely dazzling - when he was not full-fledged, he had countless opportunities to get rid of future troubles, but because of that too similar facial features, he Always have the heart at the last minute.

As time passed, he woke up from so many midnight dreams, even he himself didn't understand whether Chaoyun loved him more or hated him more.

"How long have you been planning this matter?" By the time he got here, Emperor Zhao had calmed down, looked at Xiao Que and asked, "Have you been planning since that year when you went to Jianye? , you and Xie Yizhi seem to be in dire straits, but I never thought that the Xie family, which I intended to support and restrain you, has become your greatest helper."

Xie Xingzhi obeyed Xiao Que's dispatch from Juyongguan to the capital. Now, apart from the soldiers and horses of the imperial city under his control, the Imperial Forest Army who originally participated in Xuanling's remonstrance, and the Xie Family Army who returned to the capital in the name of King Qin are all Xiao Que's people.

Xiao Que smiled, under the sun, his eyes were cold and said: "When I knew my life experience back then, when I knew who caused all the tragedies back then, I thought, if one day, I will definitely Let you taste the pain when you betray your relatives and lose the world you gave up everything to get."

The cold voice contained an uncontrollable hatred.

Emperor Zhao knew he hated him, but he didn't expect to hate him so much; he knew he wanted this position, but he didn't expect him to lose the world he gained...

The [-] soldiers and horses in Juyongguan of the Yue Kingdom and the resurgence of the Huang Kingdom, the territories he conquered with his troops in the past are now being lost bit by bit. "How dare you do that!"

"Why didn't I dare?" As if hearing something funny, Xiao Que walked from the window to Emperor Zhao's bed, leaned over to look at Emperor Zhao who was lying on the bed, and said with a mocking smile.

Emperor Zhao struggled to get up while grabbing the curtain with one hand, with bulging veins on the back of his hand, he firmly grabbed Xiao Que's clothes with the other hand and said, "I know you are unwilling, but you will never be able to sit in this position in your life..."

Because of his extreme anger, Emperor Zhao took a deep breath and said, "Don't forget the blood curse that was cast in front of your mother's portrait back then!"

The blood curse in Southern Border is a secret technique from the Moon Palace in Southern Border. The person who makes the oath will make an alliance with blood and make an oath. If he breaks the oath, he will die from being devoured by thousands of insects, and he will be cursed by reincarnation forever. .

Even though Yue Qianliu knew the secret between Princess Chaoyun and the royal family back then, he was still reused by Emperor Zhao, because Yue Qianliu had cast a blood curse with Emperor Zhao to keep that secret forever.Even now that Yue Qianliu and Emperor Zhao are against each other, but because of the effect of the blood curse, Yue Qianliu hates him and Emperor Zhao deeply, but dare not reveal the secret.

"I will never forget the oath I made back then." Xiao Que looked down at Emperor Zhao who was on the bed, his clear and snowy eyes were menacing: "What is the last thing the emperor needs me to do? Is it to let the humble minister support the prince?" ? Or let Wei Chen promise not to compete for the position of the country? This is the last thing..."

"You..." Emperor Zhao stared at Xiao Que with a cold gaze, "Don't forget, who gave you everything you have today!"

Xiao Que didn't avoid Emperor Zhao either, his eyes were deep, he naturally wouldn't forget, he owed it to whom he is today!
