Chapter 552

The new king of the Western Regions ascended the throne. According to the old customs, the new king must accept the joint witness of other vassal states.

When Amutuo stood on the court hall in a grand attire, waiting for the eunuch to finish reading the imperial decree, he was about to sit on the throne with joy on his face, and Amutuo shouted in the crowd.

"The edict is false, Amu De, you are not qualified to sit on the throne!"

As soon as this remark came out, half of the courtiers kneeling below stood up and pointed out, "The second prince tampered with the will, and he is not worthy of sitting on the throne of the new king!"

The scene in Longzhong suddenly became chaotic.

Amu De looked at these people who opposed him angrily, remembered their faces one by one, and waited for the end of the day to kill them one by one.

"Presumptuous! This is the edict written by the father himself, how could it be false?" He stood at a high point and shouted angrily, his eyes were angry and cold, and he glared at Amutuo, "Amutuo, you keep saying that you are ashamed of me and you want to make up for it!" Me, it turns out that you are waiting for me here! You hate your father for passing the throne to me, and deliberately chose to make all the ministers oppose me when I ascended the throne today, what qualifications do you have to stand up?"

"This is the edict written by my father himself. I am the new king of the Western Regions. It is you... do you have any objections?"

Murderous eyes flashed across the faces of several courtiers who stood up to oppose him, as if making silent threats.

When several courtiers saw this, you looked at me and I looked at you, they were too timid to look him in the eyes, and even regretted their impulsiveness just now.

Seeing this, Amu Tuo clenched his hands into fists, "Amu De, everyone in the Western Regions knows that my father values ​​the prince most is me! Before your father died, you were still wearing an ugly mask, and you were still an inhuman person." You look like a ghost, how could the father pass the throne to you like this. It is you who forged the will and now wants to threaten the courtiers, you are the one with ulterior motives!"

"Oh, Brother Huang, Brother Huang, if you have ulterior motives, I should say this."

Amu De let out a sneer from his nasal cavity. Suddenly, his long arms dropped, and a trembling and timid eunuch was pushed up.

This person raised his head, and everyone immediately recognized his identity. This person was the former personal eunuch of the king of the Western Regions.

"Tell me, what did you see that day?" Amu De grabbed the eunuch by the collar and looked roughly into his eyes.

The eunuch was so frightened that the three souls lost their seven souls, he lowered his head, trembling all over, "Slave, the servant saw the eldest prince, and the eldest prince sneaked into the king's bedroom late at night, and when he came out again, the king was already dead." ...has collapsed!"

As soon as this remark came out, Amutuo, who was originally full of righteousness, immediately took a step back and shouted, "Impossible! You little eunuch, speechless, dare to wrong the prince, how brave you are!"

"Presumptuous!" Amu De interrupted in a cold voice, and looking at Amutuo again, he curled his lips, "Brother Emperor, you are too presumptuous! He was the most trusted servant of the king during his lifetime. Could it be possible that there will be someone who has seen it with his own eyes?" Fake, come here!"

Amu De ordered the guards who rushed in immediately, "The eldest prince dares to murder the father, take him down, and execute him after listening!"

As soon as the order was given, people immediately supported Amutuo from left to right.

Amutuo obviously didn't expect that Amutuo would come up with such a trick and call out to catch the thief, but his face was not in a hurry at all, he looked at Shangguan Shaochen from the corner of his eye, and nodded slightly.

"Shao Chen?" In the corner, Ling Muer was a little worried.

They arrived at the palace early in the morning, and there was no news of the oriental sparrow when they set off, but today, Amu De's way of flipping made her breathe tighter immediately.

This guy has always been a cold-blooded, ruthless, well-prepared person, but she didn't expect him to murder his own brother after killing his father and queen. If Shao Chen stood up at this time, would he...

"don’t worry."

Patting her arm to signal her not to be too nervous, Shangguan Shaochen cleared his throat and stood up leisurely.

"The one who murdered the king of the Western Regions was not the First Prince."

The majestic words immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

Shangguan Shaochen was already in a high position. As soon as he said this, everyone's eyes immediately turned to look at him, with interest, curiosity, and disbelief. The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Amu De had already expected that Shangguan Shaochen would not sit still, he snorted coldly, "What does the king of heaven mean? How do you know that it was not my brother who murdered the father, and you were not in the Western Regions when the father died. Oh no, don’t tell me you have already come to the Western Regions. Why, as the king of the Celestial Dynasty, you are lurking in the allies, what are you plotting, what is your Celestial Dynasty going to do?”

I have to admit that Amu De really came prepared.

No matter what anyone says, he can properly provoke and distract everyone.

Shangguan Shaochen is the king of the Celestial Dynasty, if he admits that he knows everything, it is tantamount to admitting in a disguised form that he has long been lurking in the allies, so it cannot be explained clearly.

But he didn't panic at all, and even calmed down, "The Celestial Dynasty is the head of the five continents. How can I sneak into other countries when I am so busy and have no time. However, there is a person who saw with his own eyes that the king of the Western Regions was definitely not killed by the eldest prince. There is someone else. I wonder if the Second Prince would dare to invite her out?"

If Amu De refuses, he dare not, which means he has ghosts in his heart.

But who is this person?

He was clearly fully prepared, could it be that Shangguan Shaochen was really so capable, and dared to do something under his nose that he didn't know?

Seeing everyone's curious eyes, Amu De's mouth twitched, "Although my prince doesn't know who you are going to bring out, but today is the day of my succession, how can I let you delay the auspicious time?"

"How can such a big matter be as important as the murderer who murdered the emperor? If the emperor has no ghosts in his heart, why would he not dare to invite witnesses?" Amutuo and Shangguan Shaochen sang together, successfully attracting everyone's attention.

"Come on, bring someone up."

Under Amu De's angry and curious eyes, a woman was protected and walked into the hall slowly.

She kept her head down all the time, not daring to look into anyone's eyes. When she looked closely, her legs trembled slightly. Although he was disguised, Amu De recognized his identity at a glance.

"Yaoyao, why is it you?"

"That's right, this is Princess Yaoyao, who was the favorite of the king of the Western Regions before his death!"

Shangguan Shaochen stepped forward and protected Mo Junyao behind him, preventing Amu De from rushing to kill and silence him when he was angry.

Looking at everyone's surprised eyes, he said loudly, "The king of the Western Regions loved Princess Yaoyao the most during his lifetime, and he wanted to give her the best. He even sent her to make peace with us in exchange for eternal diplomatic relations. Her father's death also has something to say."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Mo Junyao and whispered, "Don't worry, I will protect you well."

Mo Junyao raised her head after being assured, but when she opened her eyes and saw Amu De's murderous eyes, she immediately lowered her eyes again, as if she was struggling to speak but dared not speak.

"Yaoyao, what did you see that day, don't be afraid, elder brother will protect you, no one in this hall dares to hurt you!"

Amo Tuo, who was controlled in the distance, heard soothing sounds and became emotional.

Mo Junyao opened her lips, but she still didn't dare. Seeing this, Shangguan Shaochen said leisurely, "It seems that the princess must have seen some very important information, otherwise she wouldn't be so afraid to speak up! But don't worry, princess, you It would be dangerous if you don’t speak up, if you boldly identify and let the real murderer bear the price, you will be safe, won’t you?”

Hearing these words, Mo Junyao seemed to gain confidence, she raised her head vigorously, her bright eyes slid over everyone, and finally pointed to Amu De.

"It was him, he killed the king father, the day I saw it with my own eyes, he killed the king with his own hands!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked, and there was a burst of exclamation all around.

Amu De was the first to rush over, "You are talking nonsense."

Seeing that his hand was about to strangle Mo Junyao's neck, Shangguan Shaochen pulled Mo Junyao to dodge gently, leading her away from danger.

"Is the second prince trying to kill someone?"

"Shangguan Shaochen, stop meddling in your own business here!" Amu De roared, and realized that he had said something wrong, and hurriedly added, "What did you say to seduce Yaoyao? It was you, and you threatened her to frame me of!"

Looking at Mo Junyao again, Amude thought he was very sincere, "Yaoyao, I am your imperial brother, the best imperial brother to you, how can you help others to harm me? You didn't show up at Father's King’s bedroom, you don’t know anything, do you?”

"No, I know, I know everything, because I have seen it with my own eyes!"

Roaring boldly, Mo Junyao seemed to transform instantly, no longer the timid little girl just now.

She even pushed Shangguan Shaochen away, and boldly looked at Amu De, "I saw it with my own eyes that day, you pinched your father's neck with both hands, and strangled her to death! You even tampered with the will. Father's photo It is clearly stated in the book that the new king of the Western Regions will be directly elected as the eldest brother, but no one has discovered that you not only tampered with the imperial edict, but also took away the seat of the eldest brother! Amu De, it was you, you did everything, You murderer!"

Due to Mo Junyao's agitated accusation, the scene became chaotic again.

Seeing this, Amutuo immediately broke free from the guards imprisoning him, and summoned his own guards. "Come here, take down the murderer who murdered the king."

"I'll see who dares!"

Amu De threatened, and made a look at the people behind him, and more guards flooded into the hall in an instant.

After confirming that the large number of people were his own, the corners of Amud's lips rose triumphantly, "Amutuo, Mo Junyao, I don't know why you two joined forces to harm me, but you two listened to others' instigation and prevented this king from ascending the throne. Do you know what will happen?"

"I should ask you this!" Amutuo scolded angrily, "If Yaoyao hadn't witnessed her father's death with her own eyes, all of us would have been deceived by you! Amutuo, you are doing such a thing Are you not afraid of being punished by God?"

Soon, many courtiers stood up to accuse Amud one after another, and some even proposed to cancel the enthronement ceremony.

Amu De would not let go of today's good opportunity, he was one step away from success.

"Mo Junyao was divorced by Su Ce, depressed all day long, and her thoughts have long been confused. Who can prove that what she said is true?" Amu De picked up the will in his hand, "This document was written by the emperor himself, and I am The new king of the Western Regions, whoever dares to prevent this king from ascending the throne today, I will kill him!"

As soon as the words came out, Amu De aggressively pulled out the sword from his waist, his bloodthirsty eyes, and his arrogant aura showed the intention of massacre.

But at this moment, a scream suddenly came from outside the door, "Someone broke into the secret room, come here, someone broke into the secret room!"
