“Second brother, I’m doing this for your good.”

Ye Lui Heng had already been conferred the title of king. Regardless of status or seniority, he was above the Second Prince. He raised his chin and looked at the Second Prince with a gloomy expression; his voice filled with arrogance.

“Imperial brother sent troops to besiege my camp for my good? Ha, this kind of kindness is terrifying. The people of Tacheng think that I have made a big mistake. Eldest Imperial Brother wants to kill me!”

There was a hidden meaning in the Second Prince’s words. Since you sent people to kill me and then sent people to besiege me, that would be a fallout. He looked at Ye Lui Heng with a dark gaze.

He had led his troops to surround him with such great fanfare. It was fake that he wanted him, but it was confirmed that he was humiliating him. It was more likely that he had ulterior motives and was worried that the fact that he had sent people to assassinate him would be exposed.

“Second Brother, you are too kind. I am worried about your safety. That spy from the Great Xia Kingdom cannot be left alive. 1 must take him away.”

Ye Lui Heng’s face darkened when he saw that the Second Prince was unwilling to hand him over, and he directly ordered his soldiers to charge in.

“Let’s see who dares to enter.”

The Second Prince was furious. Ye Lui Heng was saying this to frame him for colluding with the Great Xia Kingdom’s spies and to charge him with treason. No matter what, he could not let this person take him away. Otherwise, he would not be able to defend himself.

“Second brother, do you have to protect that spy?”

Ye Lui Heng’s face was as dark as water. He sat on the horse’s back and looked at Ye Lui Da coldly. This was also an idea given to him by the military counselor. He had already calculated that the Second Prince would not hand over the person obediently. He could frame him for colluding with the Great Xia Kingdom and get rid of him before his father woke up.

This was what it meant to have no excuse to accuse someone!

Today, they had to enter the camp no matter what.

Ye Lui Da suddenly realized that the First Prince had deliberately sent the soldier who had come to tell the secret to frame him.

“Go and feed that kid to the tigers.”

After Ye Lui Da understood, he gave an order to his trusted aide. In a while, even if Ye Lui Heng brought his men in and couldn’t find him, he couldn’t do anything to him.

At that time, he could even blame him. It was already taboo to casually use troops in the country. He could be accused of plotting rebellion.

It could be said that these two brothers had their thoughts. They were both equally vicious and would not give up until they killed each other.

When Ye Lui Heng saw his second brother secretly giving orders to his trusted aides, he guessed he wanted to destroy the evidence. Of course, he wouldn’t give him this chance.

“Men, charge!”

Ye Lui Heng looked to his subordinate, telling him to keep an eye on Ye Lui Da’s trusted aides while he led his troops into the camp.

Ye Lui Da waved the silver spear in his hand and prepared to fight his big brother to the death. Before he dealt with the person, he absolutely couldn’t let him step into the camp.

The First Prince had several times more soldiers than him, and even if he resisted with all his might, he wouldn’t be able to last long. Ye Lui Da was so anxious that his eyes were red.

The Great Prince saw his brother holding the silver spear and coldly curling the corners of his mouth. His eyes were filled with contempt. “Second brother, I was the one who taught you martial arts. Please think carefully before you fight me. You know my temper.”

The Second Prince had to fight even if he couldn’t win. He had to leave some time to deal with that kid. He roared at the First Prince,

“Big brother, you’ve gone too far. Last night, you sent someone to assassinate me, and today, you framed me with a groundless crime.”

Ye Lui Heng laughed coldly,

“I don’t know what you’re talking about. Since you want to go against me, then don’t blame me for not thinking about brotherhood.”

Ye Lui Heng shook the nine-ringed blade in his hand after speaking, emitting a chilling sound of metal colliding and killing intent gathered in his eyes. Today, he would eliminate this hidden danger that was the only one qualified to compete with him for the throne.

Seeing Ye Lui Heng raise his nine-ringed saber high up at the critical moment, a stern shout rang out. The Empress rushed with the imperial guards and stopped before Ye Lui Heng. The Empress rode on her horse and looked at Ye Lui Heng with a dignified expression. She scolded coldly,

“Ye Lui Heng, you’re so audacious. Are you planning to rebel by privately mobilizing the army?”

The Empress’s blow was not light. This hit Ye Lui Heng’s sore spot. If the princes rebelled lightly, they would be sent to the Imperial Clan Court for punishment and removed from the imperial register. If it were severe, they would be beheaded.

Although Ye Lui Heng looked down on the Empress from the bottom of his heart, his status was here. She had the status of Mother, so he had to be respectful.

Ye Lui Heng ground his teeth; he had to endure it even if he wanted to turn hostile. He didn’t dismount and only cupped his hands toward the Empress,

“Imperial Mother’s words are too heavy; your son does not dare.”

“Why wouldn’t you dare? Taking advantage of the fact that your Imperial Father is bedridden, you have begun to eliminate dissidents and lead troops to besiege your own younger brother. The next step is to force the abdication, right?”

The Empress sat on her horse and looked at Ye Lui Heng with a cold smile. Seeing that he didn’t get off his horse and was even more unwilling to kneel and pay his respects, if this wasn’t a rebellion, what was it?

“Imperial Mother, don’t malign your son.”

Ye Lui Heng looked at the Empress with a gloomy expression, not even bothering to show his respect on the surface,

“My subordinates are chasing a spy and saw him enter second brother’s camp. 1 asked second brother to hand him over, but he refused. This son has no choice but to anger mother for the country’s safety.”

Since he had already decided to take action, Ye Lui Heng steeled his heart and absolutely could not give the Empress and second brother any time to catch their breath.

Ye Lui Heng’s soldiers rushed into the camp and saw the Empress wave her hand. The Imperial Guards aimed their bows at them,

“Stop right there.”

If they took another step forward, they would be shot dead. After all, they were the royal guards. Those Tartan soldiers did not dare to fight them. If they were charged with treason, their entire family would be exterminated.

“Let’s see who dares to stop me.”

In anger, Ye Lui Heng took out the Emperor’s token. Seeing the Emperor’s token, the guards looked at the Empress in embarrassment.

“The emperor gave you the token to manage the country well, not to bully your brothers.”

The Empress also didn’t expect Ye Lui Heng to have this waist token. Previously, when the Emperor was seriously ill, he let Ye Lui Heng take over the government and gave him a certain amount of power but didn’t say anything about giving him this waist token.

With this waist token, she, as the Empress, could not stop him. For a moment, she was so angry that her beautiful face turned cold.

“This matter concerns the safety of the country. This subject can’t be biased. Let’s enter the camp and search. If there are no spies, this subject will naturally ask for forgiveness from Huangen Mang.”

The fiercer Ye Lui Da tried to stop him; the more certain Ye Lui Chun was that the person was in the camp. The Empress could only watch him deal with her son if he was caught.

The Empress glanced at her second son and saw his eyes were somewhat panicked. She couldn’t let Ye Lui Heng get hold of her son’s weakness. Seeing his cry for help, she knew such a person was in the camp.

“Apologize? What a weak apology. You brought troops to search the Second Prince’s camp and used the excuse of catching spies. Didn’t you want people to misunderstand that the Second Prince was a traitor? You’re brothers. Do you have to be so ruthless?”

The Empress did not give in, not allowing Ye Lui Heng to step into the camp, or else she could not defend herself.

“Huangen Niang, your son is dedicated to the country. Please don’t accuse me.”

Ye Lui Heng had already lost his patience. Today, no matter who stopped him, he would capture him. The nine-ringed saber in his hand was held horizontally as he shouted sternly,

“Those who block me will die..”
