"Father, this is what you said. From the beginning, you planned to pass on the throne to me? Then you turned around and made an imperial edict, and every word showed that you had to..."
Emperor Qingming's eyes were red and looked at the divine case as if he were staring at someone: "... You lied to me until your death! What do you say? The throne was mine, but to dispel my doubts!... you were counting on me until your death!"
He said with a sarcastic smile: "it's ridiculous not to be diligent in politics... Not to be friends with brothers and sisters, and disrespectful to the surnames Xu and Wu! - is it all my fault? If I don't do anything, I'll only be swallowed by them! I'm planning for Daqing, but you want to bind me with this! What's the reason!"
He raised his hand to the direction of God's case and filled his eyes with hate: "is this the situation you want to see? Are you satisfied? This is your revenge, isn't it?"
"No... No." he suddenly frowned, looked at the imperial edict in Xie Shoufu's hand, shook his head and said, "this imperial edict is fake and forged! The real imperial edict has already been burned to ashes by me!"
Xie Shoufu looked at him calmly.
Therefore, this is an acknowledgement that there is indeed a legacy
"No, no, no!" emperor Qingming's face suddenly changed and his voice was firm: "there is no imperial edict... From beginning to end! It's all fake! I don't recognize it!"
Listening to the repeated and contradictory words, the ministers looked at the emperor whose face changed constantly, even crying and laughing, and their hearts were shocked.
Crazy
It seems that this is really crazy
"Jing Rong, how dare you forge the imperial edict? Do you know what crime you should have!" emperor Qingming looked at Princess Jing Rong and gnashed his teeth and said, "I shouldn't have been soft hearted... I should have killed you again!"
The ministers had different faces.
Therefore, it is also true to kill Princess Jing Rongchang!
"It's all my fault. I'm too soft hearted. I should have killed all of you and left none!" emperor Qingming stared at King Yan closely: "It's all because of you... You robbed me of everything, and your mother robbed everything that belonged to my biological mother! All this should belong to me! In the end, it depends on your kind and generous hypocrisy, as if everything was freely given by you! Why? What on earth!"
The king of Yan looked at him quietly and said nothing.
Looking at those murderous eyes, Princess Jing Rongchang's hands hanging on her side couldn't help gripping the edge of her sleeves.
Is that all brother Huang sees?
Growing up in the same place and born of the same mother, why does she see different things from her brother?
Kindness and magnanimity are hypocrisy, and vice versa?
What others do is wrong!
And he will never know his mistake!
Even if he is defeated, even if he clearly puts all causes and consequences in front of him, he will only feel that he has not done enough evil, and those vicious means are not thorough enough!
In his eyes, not fighting with it is hypocrisy. All goodwill is false. Only the resistance when he is forced to a dead end is true!
Others can't resist
If he resisted, he became what he called "I knew it would be like this"!
Don't you really feel sad?
Princess Jing Rong clenched her sleeves.
Such people only die
Only his death can end.
She never thought that one day she would use such a "vicious" idea on her biological brother
But at this time, there was no other thought in her mind. What pity, sadness and disappointment were all gone. She only wanted to make such a devil with bloody hands and hatred in her eyes completely disappear!
King Yan looked at Xie Shoufu and Jiang Taifu——
"As he said just now, you must have made a judgment from it. Your past sins, responsibilities and faults have been clear. Please handle your ancestors' formulation according to law."
Xie Shoufu held the silk in his hand and saw Taifu Jiang nodding to him imperceptibly.
The emperor, who was already delirious, had no room for half refutation.
"... I don't think anyone dares! I'm the son of heaven! The son of heaven!"
Seeing that the king of Yan had no response, he made the ministers angry, and Emperor Qingming became more and more crazy in his anger.
He didn't know where his strength came from. The man who hadn't got up for a long time suddenly stood up from his chair.
However, only two steps forward, it was difficult to support and fell to the ground.
His legs were weak, he almost fell straight down, his forehead knocked on the cold stone brick, his ears hummed, the crown of beads scattered on his head, and the precious beads splashed.
"Emperor..."
"Your majesty!"
Li Ji and the officials went forward in a mixed mood.
"Get out!"
Emperor Qingming, with blood on his forehead and white hair in a disordered bun, waved people away. He felt for a broken knife in his left hand, held the handle tightly, propped up his upper body reluctantly with his elbow, and dragged his skinny body forward.
As he climbed forward, his eyes were nailed to the king of Yan all the time.
"I will kill you... Kill you..."
So he crawled slowly, crazy and desperate.
None of the officials in the internal prison came forward to stop them.
Even though he was very unwilling, he couldn't get close to King Yan any more.
Just a short way, for him, it is doomed to never be close to arrival.
When his upper body fell down, a large amount of black blood gushed out of his mouth.
The dark blood stained his lips, teeth and jaw, and soon soaked the skirt of his gold embroidered dragon dress.
"Father!"
Seeing this, the prince could no longer hold back his tears, ran down the stone steps and ran over quickly.
He knelt down on the side of emperor Qingming and turned over with the two imperial doctors who followed him, so that the other party could sit in front of him.
The boy took his thin body to support the same thin emperor.
"Father, father..."
The boy's tears were like rain, his voice choked and trembled, and flustered to take his sleeves to wipe the blood pouring out of his mouth for emperor Qingming.
Yes, he looked forward to his father's early departure and Atonement, but he couldn't be indifferent to his dying father.
"People... Come out, come out..."
Emperor Qingming suddenly opened his eyes, but it seemed as if he couldn't see anything. He stretched out his hands and fumbled in front of him.
He tried to swallow the blood, but soon spit out more.
The prince's tears flowed more and more violently: "father, emperor, son and minister are here!"
Emperor Qingming grabbed his hand, then went up along his arm and knocked on the boy's delicate neck with both hands.
"Xie Dingchen... I must... I must kill you!"
The prince shed tears and did not struggle.
No struggle.
Those bloody hands had little strength to hurt him.
Princess Jing Rong came slowly.
At this time, the hands pinched in front of the prince's neck suddenly stopped, then released the boy and grabbed it in her direction.
"Mother..."
Emperor Qingming seemed to see someone, and his sight was fixed on the side of Princess Jing Rongchang.
He called "mother" in his mouth, his eyes were wide open, and he murmured: "empress mother, do you still blame me... But you must, must die... Only when you die, my father will feel guilty and owe me! If you live, you can't win the bitch's mother and son... If you can't be the queen, I can't be the legitimate eldest son..."
Vaguely heard the key point of Jing Rongchang, princess's face changed greatly.
"What did you say..."
She looked at the man covered with blood in disbelief.
"No, you can't blame me. I should blame you..." emperor Qingming burst into tears in his eyes and his voice was hoarse and painful: "it's you... You didn't give me a glorious birth! Even though I tried my best... It's still in vain... And all this is because of you. How can you let me not complain!"
His hand is still desperately grasping, as if he wants to grasp those things that have left him and have not even really owned.
"It's you..." Princess Jing Rongchang's voice trembled: "did you kill your mother?!"
She squatted down suddenly, grabbed his hand tightly and repeatedly asked, "mother was killed by you... Right!"
Was his mother's death the first move he made!
It turned out that when everyone didn't know, his killing of his close relatives had begun!
Mother, father, and then to her
Sheng'er, second brother, second sister-in-law, third brother!
What the hell did he do!
Just for a throne?!
Even though there had been such earth shattering things as regicide, the people were still surprised when they heard that they were suspected of killing their mother.
Princess Jing Rongchang is still questioning.
But the man did not answer her, nor could he answer her again.
She noticed that the hand she was holding was gradually becoming weak, and the other had slowly hung down.
The sky became more and more gloomy, and black clouds crowded and surging.
"Boom -"
A thunder billowed from the distant horizon.
Emperor Qingming's eyes were still wide open, and his pupils diverged, and his fundus was still full of resentment and unwillingness.
The first drop of rain hit him in the face.
Doctor Zheng trembled and stretched out his hand to test.
"Your Majesty... Died..."
After a moment, he tried to raise his voice and shouted——
"Your Majesty died!"
“……”
The emperor died.
Died in the land of Lingshan imperial mausoleum.
Died under the revelation of all the unbearable truth.
The four who should have knelt down and cried like a landslide were abnormally quiet at this time.
For a time, there was almost no movement except the sound of wind and rain.
The emperor has been ill for a long time.
As early as years ago, many people thought it would not last for a few days.
However, the silence is obviously not just because people have long expected this day——
Before that, they had never thought that the majesty and dignity of an emperor could be reduced to such a degree.
King Yan and Wu Tsung came over.
Wu Tsui came to his side and squatted down slowly.
He could see his figure reflected in his wide open eyes.
Die in peace?
But the people who really deserve to die are not him at all, but the innocent people who died in his hands.
The boy stretched out his hand and covered his eyes.
As he slowly closed his eyes, his voice was low but clear and calm: "go all the way, uncle Huang -"
A yuan once said that people can still hear the voices around them within half an hour after death.
He thought that when he went on a big trip, he should let the other party listen to him.
When he got up, the finger of the emperor's right hand hanging on the stone brick moved slightly.
Princess Jing Rongchang looked at the young man standing on one side in surprise.
——Uncle Huang?!
The prince raised his head in a daze.
Doctor Zheng's pupil suddenly shrinks. He only suspects that he has heard wrong.
At this time, Ji Xiu knelt down on one side after listening to the sound of "plop".
He knelt not the dying emperor, but the king of Yan.
"Ji made a big mistake because he was deceived and narrow-minded. Now the truth is clear, the enemy is dead, and the sinner Ji Xiu has no face to live in the world. Now I would like to die to express my regret! Only your highness can leave a way for the only daughter of my family for the sake of the sinner's contribution today!"
Finish your words and kowtow heavily.
San Ji's head rang, and the weight of strength seemed to shake the stone bricks under his feet.
After kowtowing, when the general straightened up, his face was determined without hesitation. He immediately grabbed one side of the long knife, and the sharp blade came out of the scabbard in front of him. A cold light flashed in the rain——
Just as he waved his knife to wipe his throat, another cold light came in front of him. "When" made a sound, the sound of sharp blades fell. The long knife in his hand had been picked away by the sharp sword and fell to the ground.
Ji Xiu stared at the man who received the sword.
"Ji Shangshu doesn't have to be like this." King Yan looked at him and said, "right and wrong, merits and demerits. After returning to Beijing, he has his own legal principles to judge and deal with."
He said, looking around at the mess: "the current situation is special. Today, there is such a change. Everything in the palace must be dealt with by the book of history -"
Jixiu knelt there for a long time.
Where does he have to deal with the aftermath?
His highness Yan is clearly deliberately giving him the opportunity to continue to commit crimes and meritorious deeds
If he committed suicide in front of the public today, it will prove the reality of emperor Qingming's regicide, and there will no longer be any dispute in the court!
The king of Yan will not know this.
But the other party is unwilling and disdainful.
Ji Xiu smiled bitterly at the bottom of his heart, but suddenly flashed in his mind the young figure who had been in and out of the military camp all day long many years ago.
Always following behind the teenagers were two equally young boys. When they mentioned the second childe, they had bright eyes and were willing to follow them.
What makes the two children admire and admire... What is it?
He was really stupid. His eyes were useless and his heart was blind!
Thinking about what he had done and complained about over the years, Ji Xiu pulled it in his heart and kowtowed solemnly again. When his forehead touched the ground rain, his sight was blurred.
"Boom -"
In the rain, suddenly there was a burst of thunder, dull and heavy, as if trying to split the chaos.
Xu Mingyi looks to the horizon with dark clouds.
Spring thunder is born, and all things wake up.
With the thunder came the heavier rain.
Officials retreated to the mausoleum to take shelter from the rain, and the body of emperor Qingming was temporarily restrained.
The rain washed the gloomy sky and washed the blood.
