Chapter 111: I gave you a chance

"What's the matter, please make it clear, don't hesitate!" Luo Shuyu was so angry that he was no less than Li Mingjin.

The dark guard replied: "Yes, as soon as His Royal Highness entered the palace, he was controlled by the people of the fourth prince and was held in solitary confinement. An San followed him, and now his life is safe. His Highness asked me to tell the master that he has his own opinion. There is no danger for now."

"Is it still dangerous to be locked up by the fourth prince?" Luo Shuyu didn't believe what the dark guard said at all, but they had also expected that the fourth prince would immediately attack Li Mingjin after Emperor Tiansheng's death, which was almost as expected. "If you bring some more dark guards into the palace, you must protect His Highness. Everything in the palace is in order. The people who are guarding here are the people brought back by Gucheng, and there will be no danger."

The dark guard began to hesitate again: "But His Highness asked us to come back to protect you and the little master."

Luo Shuyu said: "Leave half of the staff here, and bring half of the people into the palace. No need to say any more, it's just this decision."

The two masters had their own opinions, but the dark guard knew very well that Luo Shuyu also had the right to speak, and did not dare to disobey.

Luo Shuyu told himself not to be too nervous, and care would be messy. They had already arranged staff in the palace. If he wanted to come, Li Mingjin would follow the fourth prince, and he probably had his own considerations and arrangements. All he had to do now was to wait for Li Mingjin to return , don't cause him trouble, and don't disturb his plans. Since he is willing to capture it, he will also have corresponding countermeasures.

At this time, the fourth prince did not expect that Li Mingjin's eyeliner was everywhere in the imperial city long ago.

I just don't know if Emperor Tiansheng left behind before he died.

The death of Emperor Tiansheng happened in the morning. The fourth prince's mansion was close. The fourth prince rushed into the palace with his men and horses first. He knew in advance that the throne would be passed on to him. Before he could read it, he already had a sense of immersion, and he was bound to control his third brother at the first time.

Sure enough, his third brother was not as smart as he thought. When he entered the palace, he didn't even bring a saber. It was easier than he imagined. Don't be in a hurry.

Presumably Shen Mingyun's side has already set off for the Third Prince's Mansion. They have properly allocated their work in advance, and now they just need to act according to the plan.

The Fourth Prince felt that there was no difficulty at all.

At this time, Emperor Tiansheng's body had been carried out of the bedroom. He found a will in the dark room of Emperor Tiansheng's bedroom, and he was in a very happy mood.

He walked quickly out of Emperor Tiansheng's bedroom, and decided to hand over the edict to the Zuo Prime Minister, who would read it out. Now he has the highest official position, and he is considered to be Emperor Tiansheng's trusted minister, the Zuo Prime Minister. Can convince the officials below.

The fourth prince was full of confidence. He had seen this edict and took it away without opening it.

He said to himself placed in the palace: "Go and call all the officials, and read the father's last edict to the court. I will personally ask the third brother to let him listen to the father's last will."

Everyone acted according to his orders. Those officials who had opinions on the Fourth Prince were all **** by him to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, which was the place where Emperor Tiansheng went to court on weekdays. He wanted to read it here and let everyone Everyone knows that he is the future emperor, and it is not good to fight against him. It is better to do things for him and recognize him as the new master.

The fourth prince did what he said, and really went to invite Li Mingjin, who was imprisoned by him. Now only the two of them are left to fight, and it must be to let the opponent see the final truth.

The fourth prince asked the guards to open the door of Li Mingjin: "Open the door."

Because the fourth prince had tied him up in time, Li Mingjin immediately captured him at that time. He cooperated with the opponent's actions very well, and did not do any task to resist, so that the fourth prince did not let him tie him up. If he wanted to escape, it was fine, but now His life is temporarily worry-free, and he does not need to make unnecessary efforts to arouse the strong vigilance of the fourth prince.

According to his recent observations, his fourth brother's vigilance has dropped for a while since he read the "Widow Edict", which has also given Li Mingjin a lot of opportunities. Perhaps he has not found many new faces in the palace until now. His fourth brother felt that the world belonged to him sooner or later, but he didn't care about his face, and it was possible that he didn't notice the changes at all.

The fourth prince said with a smile: "Third brother, my brother didn't mean to invite you here, but just wanted to deal with some things first, looking forward to third brother Haihan."

Li Mingjin's face was indifferent: "I don't have to agree to what the fourth brother wants to do, but your approach is inappropriate."

Of course, the fourth prince doesn't care what Li Mingjin said now: "Hehe, that's no way. Now please go to the Hall of Supreme Harmony with me to listen to the father's edict."

Li Mingjin didn't care about the edict, he glanced coldly at the fourth prince and asked, "Where is the father?"

Emperor Tiansheng walked so fast that the two brothers didn't have time to see him for the last time. However, these days when Emperor Tiansheng was dying, Li Mingjin and the fourth prince took turns taking care of him at the bedside. Before he fell into a coma, Tiansheng The emperor told Li Mingjin everything that should be said, and everything that should be explained.

Compared with what Emperor Tiansheng told the fourth prince, Li Mingjin can be sure that his efforts to Emperor Tiansheng over the years have not been in vain. Before leaving, he still thought about his third son, but Li Mingjin was also before Emperor Tiansheng died, that is, yesterday evening. , gave him a truth.

Emperor Tiansheng woke up, he looked very energetic, his face was red, and he also ate a small bowl of noodles, which was fed to him by Li Mingjin himself.

After he ran out, Emperor Tiansheng asked Li Mingjin to push him to the imperial garden to have a look.

Birds and flowers are fragrant in the imperial garden all year round, and Emperor Tiansheng was full of emotion. After watching the scene for a while, he said earnestly to Li Mingjin: "Third, you can treat your mother and concubine well in the future, and your younger brothers and sisters will also be handed over to you in the future. Now, I have drawn up the list of burials, you can let them accompany me according to the names above, and I will rest under the Jiuquan."

Li Mingjin remained reticent and replied, "Yes."

Emperor Tiansheng continued: "What I feel most regrets is that I didn't see you as an adult. You must teach him well. I see him as smart and smart, and I will definitely be able to look after the world in the future."

Li Mingjin: "My son will do everything in his power to teach him well. Don't worry, he is my son, so he will not indulge him."

Emperor Tiansheng's eyes were a little fluttering, and he looked at the blue sky: "I am most worried about the fourth child. I know your private actions. He has wanted this position for a long time. It's not innocent to have less to do with him. After a hundred years, if he does something excessive, you can handle it yourself. As far as I am concerned, I don't want to see siblings kill each other. That is the road I have also traveled. , I'm too tired and lonely, and now I regret the things I did at the beginning. Now I think about it, I owe you too much, and I didn't take care of my children. You are siblings, you shouldn't be like this..."

Emperor Tiansheng said a lot, and all he recalled were those things he had with his brothers back then. Too many people coveted the throne, and the final winner was Emperor Tiansheng. Li Mingjin also felt a lot from his words and was noncommittal.

As long as there are people, there will be struggles, and rights and interests can move people's hearts. When it comes to their own interests, even siblings are not worth mentioning. Of course, there are many reasons for this.

Li Mingjin understood the main reason why Emperor Tiansheng told him these words, presumably to remind him of the future, no matter what happens, it is best to let the fourth prince go and not kill each other.

On the surface, Li Mingjin naturally agreed well, but it is not Li Mingjin who has the final say whether they will kill each other.

After staying outside for half an hour, Emperor Tiansheng began to fall asleep, and Li Mingjin sent him back to his bedroom.

When the eunuchs helped him back to the bed, Emperor Tiansheng took Li Mingjin's hand again: "Old third, can you understand what I said just now?"

Li Mingjin nodded: "My son understands."

Emperor Tiansheng lay down, his tone elongated, and he said weakly: "Thirdest, do you have anything to say to me? I want to hear your thoughts."

Li Mingjin saw that he was drowsy, and learned that he might not survive these two days, so he said: "Father, in fact, this palace is all my people inside and outside, the fourth brother can't do anything, as long as he If I don't act on me in advance, I will let him go, or at least save his life. Over the years, I have recruited troops and established my own strength. I have also developed a firearm army that will not explode suddenly. It's a pity you didn't see it. This is my trump card. I've thought about it. If you hand over the throne to the fourth brother, he won't be able to sit for a few days. If you hand it over to me, then everyone will be happy. Of course, my son also has The premise is that the fourth prince does not make trouble and does not provoke me."

Emperor Tiansheng couldn't open his mouth suddenly, and he suddenly opened his eyes in a dizzy state: "...What did you say?"

Li Mingjin smiled at him and pressed his shoulder: "Father, please rest well, you are tired."

Emperor Tiansheng was so stimulated by him that he really fainted, and then he never got up again. The next morning, Emperor Tiansheng died.

As for whether he has any regrets, no one else knows.

Fourth Prince: "The father's body was naturally placed in the coffin prepared in advance, which is where he should stay now."

Li Mingjin: "Oh, it seems that you didn't say goodbye to your father, so you couldn't wait to know what was written in your father's will."

The fourth prince asked Li Mingjin, "Don't you want to?"

Li Mingjin shook his head: "I don't care what the edict writes." Because no matter what it writes, you can't sit here.

Fourth Prince: "You don't look like someone without ambition."

Li Mingjin: "My ambition is not as good as yours."

The fourth prince took out his saber and pointed at Li Mingjin: "Third brother, let's go, let's go to the Hall of Supreme Harmony together."

Li Mingjin glanced at the fourth prince calmly, and said solemnly: "Fourth brother, I will give you another chance to take your sword away."

The fourth prince disapproved of his warning: "Let's go, third brother, let's not do these false rituals, we all want to know the last wish of the father, you are in my hands now." The fourth prince put the sword close to Li Mingjin's neck, " Swords don't have eyes."

Li Mingjin glanced at him: "I gave you a chance."
