Eternal Immortal Dynasty

Chapter 80 The Palace Coup
Jingdu City is not as prosperous as before.

A large number of demonized demon soldiers have gathered outside the city, and they are besieging Jingdu City from all sides.The prince Wang Hao in the city is leading the imperial army to start a coup to seize power.

An internal and external chaos is going on in Nanshu Kingdom.

"Your Highness, tens of thousands of monsters have gathered outside the city to besiege the city."

"Your Highness, the outside of the palace has been sealed off by the Imperial Army."

"Your Highness, there is news from the palace that the crown prince has forced the palace, and the emperor..."

In the Princess Mansion, Princess Xiyue's complexion became more and more ugly after hearing the spies' reports one by one.

Especially when she heard that the prince forced the palace and might commit patricide, she finally couldn't sit still: "No, I want to go into the palace to find out!"

"It's better not to go, Jingdu City is in trouble both internally and externally. If you are in a desperate situation, then the entire Nanshu Kingdom will be destroyed by itself!"

At the moment when Princess Xiyue was about to get up, the little fox who was sleeping under the table suddenly spouted a persuasion.

When the little fox opened his mouth, everyone in the mansion was startled.

But after all, they are all people who are used to seeing the world. After being surprised, Princess Xiyue frowned and asked: "But how can I ignore the safety of my father?"

"It's useless for you to care!"

"What do you mean by that?"

"That imperial brother of yours chose to force the palace when the monsters attacked the city. Obviously, he is ready to cooperate internally and externally. Do you think he is still your imperial brother?"

"This……"

After what the little fox said, the clever Princess Xiyue immediately understood the deep meaning.

The South Shu Kingdom has been able to prosper for hundreds of years, so it naturally has a good foundation, especially the Dragon Guard Corps that defends the South Shu Kingdom, its overall strength is also a force that cannot be underestimated.

The Dragon Guard Corps has always been in charge of the nine dragon guards, and each guard is hereditary, and their loyalty to the royal family has never changed.

Now that the nine dragon guards and their elite corps are all transferred to Jingdu City, it seems that they are to resist the attacking monster corps, but it is also equivalent to withdrawing the defense of the palace.

So the crown prince Wang Hao forced the palace to seize power at this time, apparently he had reached an agreement with the demon corps that was besieging the city outside.

"Greedy desires have corrupted everyone in Ximen's family, and made your good brother a puppet. Therefore, entering the palace at this time will only lead to a dead end. Instead of making unnecessary sacrifices, why not think about how to save the situation? ?”

"What do you mean, to let Bengong turn the tide?"

"That's right. Apart from the crown prince and King Jin, the princess is the most respected princess. If you can get the support of the nine dragon guards, then Jingdu City can reasonably settle it."

After hearing these words, Princess Xiyue felt that it was very reasonable, but she found herself in a difficult situation: "That being said, the emperor is the heir apparent, and now he is forcing the palace to take power. In this way, the nine dragon guards will only If you obey the heir to the throne, how can you support a female stream in this palace?"

"Your Highness, why bother to hide it at this time? In this case, the fox who is willing to help you will only stand by and watch!"

The little fox twisted the fox's head, thinking that at this time, you little girl is still pretending to be confused with me. Is this fox living for hundreds of years in vain?
During these days, Hu Qing'er stayed in the princess mansion as a fox, although she didn't make a sound, she saw every move of this princess Xiyue.

Hu Qing'er was amazed at the agility of the seemingly weak woman in front of her.

These days, Hu Qing'er has noticed that many officials of the Southern Shu Kingdom have secretly attached themselves to the princess' camp.

Even among the dragon guards loyal to each generation of the royal family, nearly half of them kept secret contact with the princess.

Such a huge force in the dark would not have reached this level without decades of hard work.

But what is amazing is that this force was formed by a 15-year-old girl, which has to surprise Hu Qing'er who has lived for hundreds of years.

Speaking of this, Princess Xiyue no longer concealed anything: "I may be able to control the situation in the city, but the tens of thousands of monster corps outside the city, I'm afraid..."

"You can rest assured about this matter, I have already contacted the young master, I believe I can return here soon!"

"Okay, I know what to do..."

……

In the palace, Wang Hao sat proudly on the dragon chair in the main hall.

Touching the strange yet familiar dragon chair, he felt an indescribable feeling.

Many times in his dreams, he was sitting on this dragon chair, giving orders to the officials in the palace!

Now that he was sitting upright on it, he even wanted to let out a long roar at this moment, expressing his grievances for many years.

Beside the dragon chair, Ximen Jianyu rested his sword on the old emperor's neck.

"Father, have you seen that this son-in-law has finally sat on the throne!" Wang Hao looked at his father proudly, and the old father-son affection was missing in his eyes.

The old emperor scolded in a cold voice: "Nie Zhan, I have already canonized you as the crown prince. This country will be yours sooner or later. Are you so impatient?"

"Hahaha, canonize me as the prince?"

Hearing this, Wang Hao laughed mockingly: "If you hadn't taken into account the ancestor's rule of establishing the elders but not the young, would you have made me the crown prince?"

"You don't need to say it, I'll answer it for you, you won't, absolutely not!"

Wang Hao asked and answered himself furiously, "In your eyes, I will never be as good as your second brother! In your heart, your second brother is the best candidate for you to be the crown prince. It is just your helplessness to appoint me as the crown prince." Just lift it!"

Facing Wang Hao's roar, the old emperor's eyes twitched, and his calm tone trembled a little: "Yes, in my heart, you are indeed not a suitable candidate for the crown prince, because your mind is too narrow!"

"However, there are only you and Prince Jin's second son by my side, and now that he has no threat to you, why do you do such extreme things?"

"Enough!" Wang Hao waved his sleeves angrily, "But why did he come back? Now that he's back, this matter will never end!"

"Is this why you collude with the demon?"

"Yes! That's right!" Facing the old emperor's questioning, Wang Hao did not hide it at all, "This imperial power is mine, and no one can take it away! He has excellent aptitude, so it doesn't matter if he worships the Taoist sect, as long as he dares to If you come back to seize power, I will kill him directly!"

"Bastard, he's your brother!"

"Brother? Hahaha!" Wang Hao's entire face became dark, with black ink marks looming on his neck, "Even father, you will die if you block my way!"

As he spoke, his eyes flashed coldly, and he suddenly slapped the old emperor Tianling.

The sound of the skull cracking was very clear in the quiet hall, even Ximen Jianyu who was at the side was stunned for a moment.

"Jianyu, have you cleaned up everything inside and outside the palace?"

"Reporting to Mrs. Uh, reporting to the emperor, my father has led the guards of the East Palace and my Ximen family generals to carry out strict control inside and outside the palace!"

"Ah That's good!"

At this moment, a guard hurried in from outside the hall: "There is news from the princess mansion that the princess has a relapse of her old illness and is in critical condition. I want to see you..."

The guard wanted to say that he wanted to see the old emperor and Wang Hao, but seeing the old emperor who had died tragically, he didn't say the following words.

Hearing that Princess Xiyue was critically ill, Wang Hao was taken aback, and then angrily said: "It must be that your actions were too abrupt and disturbed the princess?"

"Damn it!"

"If there is something wrong with the imperial sister, I will let you be buried together!"

Although Wang Hao's methods are ruthless, his younger sister is an exception. Among the four brothers and sisters, he has the most affection for this younger sister.

This may be because his sister did not interfere with his imperial power path, so she became this seemingly unreasonable exception.

So when he heard that his sister's old illness had relapsed, Wang Hao couldn't sit still.

However, his calm mind caused him to hesitate.

Compared with Wang Hao's calm concern, Ximen Jianyu is very anxious. He has always admired Princess Xiyue, and now that Princess Xiyue is seriously ill, he should go to visit her.

Under Ximen Jianyu's words, Wang Hao was also concerned about his sister's illness, so the two monarchs and ministers rushed to the princess mansion in a hurry.

Of course, under Wang Hao's order, a group of spiritual healers also flocked to the princess mansion.

"Prince, what's the matter with you?"

As soon as Wang Hao entered the princess mansion, he felt that the atmosphere in the mansion was not right.

"Brother Huang, you must have noticed that the formation that was set up in the mansion back then has lost its effectiveness, and my sister's natural morbidity has relapsed again. I'm afraid...I'm afraid she will die soon..."

Princess Xiyue said with a haggard face, she was lying on the bed like a gossamer.

"This... how could it be like this?" Of course Wang Hao knew that his sister was born with a dead vein, "Didn't it mean that something would happen in 30 years, why did it fail after half the time?"

Wang Hao didn't have time to think too much, and hurriedly summoned all the spiritual healers.

But Princess Xiyue waved her hand: "No need, maybe it's God's will. My sister just wants to see Father and Brother, and she is already satisfied. By the way, where is Father?"

"Father, he..."

Wang Hao's words paused, and then he showed a look of grief: "Third sister, the father has passed away..."

"what!"

Although Princess Xiyue was well prepared in her heart, she still felt a pain in her heart when she heard the news with her own ears.

Tears wet the temples, Xiyue was silent for a long time, and suddenly there was a gleam of determination in her eyes.

"Brother..."

Xiyue's voice was very low, so low that she could only see her mouth moving, but couldn't hear her voice.

In order to be able to hear his sister's words clearly, Wang Hao had to lower his body slightly.

But at this moment, a white light suddenly shot out from Xiyue's side, and it plunged into Wang Hao's eyebrows with lightning speed.

Caught off guard, Wang Hao let out a scream, his whole head seemed to explode.

Immediately afterwards, Xiyue sat up from the bed, her hands were floating up and down, and her ten fingers were drawing strange runes in front of Wang Hao.

"Say, did you kill the father?"

"I..." Wang Hao, who had a splitting headache, still resisted at first, but then he couldn't help being honest with Xiyue's fingers, "I killed the emperor father, I colluded with..."
