At the beginning, the little prince Beili and his mother were crazy about each other.

The emperor was seriously ill and in critical condition.

Twenty years ago, Emperor Tai'an was seriously ill and in danger of death, and a riot broke out in Tianqi.

Eight princes fought for the throne, which was recorded by historians as the "Eight Princes Rebellion".

Among the eight princes, the seventh prince Xiao Ruofeng was both virtuous and talented, wise and brave, and was highly regarded by the ministers. He was the best candidate for the crown prince.

But he didn't like the power, but liked to travel around the world and make friends with talented people.

A free-spirited prince returned to Beijing in the storm of the "Eight Princes Rebellion", bringing a group of friends he made while traveling around the world, and openly supported his fellow brother, the third prince Xiao Ruojin.

On the night when the late emperor was about to die, the princes did their best to rush to the Pingqing Palace with their own troops.

Because whoever could reach the palace first would know the name on the edict first.

Of course, it didn't matter whether the person on the edict was him or not.

Because whoever could enter the Pingqing Palace would be qualified to compete for glory in the world.

Among the eight princes, the third prince Xiao Ruojin had the least troops, only three hundred Tiger Guards.

As for the other princes, they had thousands of troops and excellent armor.

But unexpectedly, the third prince, who had the least hope of entering the Pingqing Palace, left many legends in front of the Pingqing Palace.

And all this was thanks to the good friends brought by the seventh prince.

For example, Li Xinyue, the heir of Jianxin Tomb, Lei Mengsha of Jiangnan Leimen, and a gun-wielding boy under the age of fifteen and the long-haired man holding a long stick.

Only four people stopped countless soldiers and horses. Although other princes also invited top masters from the martial arts world, they were not the opponents of these four people.

At that time, the seventh prince single-handedly resisted the combined efforts of several princes and escorted his brother all the way to the front of Pingqing Palace.

The intensity of the battle was no less than the fighting on the battlefield.

Since ancient times, the road of kings is destined to come on a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood. When the third prince arrived in front of Pingqing Palace, he was already covered in blood.

The other princes were all injured, but the third prince was not stained with a drop of blood because of his brother's protection.

When the two came to the front of Pingqing Palace, the seventh prince Xiao Ruofeng could hardly stand, but the other princes dared not to move forward.

They were shocked by the perseverance of the seventh brother and had no courage to move forward.

In the stalemate, the four Tianqi eunuchs walked out of Pingqing Palace holding the imperial edict.

When they saw these four people, everyone stopped their hands for a while, and no one dared to act rashly.

It was because the four eunuchs held the Dragon Seal Scroll that the previous emperor had already prepared.

In addition, with the combined efforts of the Tianqi eunuchs, no one present could be their opponent, even the third prince who had already gained the upper hand.

Because the edge of the Tianqi eunuchs should not be touched lightly.

Everyone could only watch the eunuchs read the paper scroll, especially those princes who had lost hope of winning the throne and had lost the initiative.

They placed all their hopes on the paper scroll, as long as the eunuchs read their own names.

Then, with the legitimacy of the edict and the help of the four eunuchs, the supreme position would be within reach.

But strangely, under the expectation of everyone, the four eunuchs just held the Dragon Seal Scroll and didn't say a word for a long time.

While the princes were confused, the seventh prince strode forward and grabbed the imperial edict from the eunuch in blood.

After taking a look, he tore the imperial edict into pieces in front of everyone and shouted to the people below: "I have read it! The emperor has ordered that the throne be passed to the third prince Xiao Ruojin!"

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Xiao Ruofeng's behavior was extremely rebellious, but the four eunuchs did not stop him.

After hearing the loud shouts of the seven princes outside the palace, Emperor Tai'an in the Pingqing Palace dropped his hands weakly.

Finally, he took his last breath and passed away...

The four eunuchs also knelt on the ground respectfully and shouted to the third prince respectfully: "Meet the new emperor!"

Seeing that the situation was over, the other surviving princes could only put down their weapons and kneel down weakly.

The "Eight Kings Rebellion" ended there, but people's topic still stayed on that day.

Some people believe that the name written on the edict was actually the name of the seventh prince, who tore up the edict because he did not want to be the emperor and liked to be free and unrestrained.

No one could understand why he could give the throne to someone else, but perhaps only the seventh prince Xiao Ruofeng knew all this.

In ancient times, there was a story of a student standing in the snow outside a teacher's door, and it was passed down as a good story.

But Xiao Ruofeng experienced it personally. That year, it snowed heavily and he fell seriously ill and was on the verge of death.

Because he

Their mother was not favored, and was not favored by the emperor. Those with a little power in the palace did not need to respect them.

The imperial physician was even more perfunctory and did not care about the safety of the seventh prince at all.

In this critical moment, if the third prince had not knelt outside the imperial hospital and begged the imperial physician to save his brother, which moved the head of the imperial hospital at that time, the seventh prince would not have survived the heavy snow.

But who could have thought that the two brothers had such a good relationship, but in the end, something that shocked the whole country happened...

——"The Case of Prince Langya's Rebellion"!
