C44 Emperor's death
C44 Emperor's death
"Don't worry, she's already dead. What are you afraid of? Congratulations His royal highness the prince, after tomorrow, you will be the ruler of this country. " Qin Qiong cupped her fists and said.
"Duke of Qin, it should be His Majesty now." black robed elder chuckled as he spoke.
Li Jian walked over to Li Bing's corpse with a flattering smile. When he saw Li Bing's furious eyes staring at him, he felt a chill down his spine.
Li Tangguo's number one expert had died under the "combined efforts" of Li Jian, Qin Qiong and black robed elder.
If it was any ordinary person, they basically would not be able to get close to Li Bing, and even more so, would not give anyone the chance to stand beside them and make their move. The reason why he was able to hit Li Bing was all because Qin Qiong's strangeness had attracted all of Li Bing's attention.
As long as there was a trace of caution, with Li Jian's strength, it was impossible for him to stab Li Bing.
Who would have thought that his nephew, whose strength was so insignificant that it could be ignored, would suddenly kill him?
Qin Qiong and black robed elder were unable to kill Li Bing, so Li Jian's Poison Dagger played a crucial role.
The thing worth mentioning was that no matter how strong the poison was, it could not poison the Dan Yuan Stage Expert to death. After condensing Yuan Dan in the dantian, one could channel Yuan Dan to absorb the poison and refine it forcibly.
Given some time, Li Bing would definitely be able to refine the poison and recover fully.
Killing Li Bing, the three of them could not be missing a single one. Other than Li Jian being beaten up and vomiting blood, Qin Qiong and black robed elder were unharmed, and their elemental energy was not even damaged by much.
Li Yuan died an even simpler death. The colourless and tasteless poison powder made one's head spin after drinking it. The cause of death could not be investigated. It could only be due to toiling away at national affairs day and night until one died of exhaustion.
That poison powder had no effect on the Dan Yuan Stage Expert. Li Yuan's talent was not strong, and his cultivation resources were limitlessly supplied, so he was only at the seventh stage of the Condensing Yuan Stage.
"Thank you, King Qin, thank you Soul Elder. After I ascend the throne, I will definitely be greatly thanked!" Li Jian gave a coquettish smile, nodding and bowing.
"Prepare the matters of the early dynasty tomorrow. No need to impeach Guo Ziyi, as long as you can convince the hundred civil and military officials to successfully ascend to the throne, Guo Ziyi will be handed over to us to kill. After the assembly ends, let those who are against you leave first. Once they enter Xuanwumen, I will cooperate with them and kill them all. Qin Qiong said.
"Yes, we'll let the Duke of Qin decide."
"Lieutenant General Lin, are you ready?" Li Jian summoned Lin Chong over, and after tidying up the mess, he asked smugly.
"Your Highness, everything is fine. Everyone in Xuanwumen must die." Lin Chong knelt on the ground with his head lowered, but Li Jian could not see his expression.
"Very well, after this is done, I will keep my promise and let your family go, so that you can be promoted to a great general!" Li Jian said with a smile.
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
"You go and prepare, don't let anything go wrong. If I don't become the Kaiser, you and your family will all die. "
Lin Chong brought a few of his trusted aides to patrol the palace. Inside the palace, there were five steps, five steps, one guard.
Hundreds of heavy crossbows were set up on the battlements of Xuanwumen. Over ten thousand Yuelin Army s were hidden around Xuanwumen.
"Crown Prince, ah, Crown Prince, I didn't expect that you would be able to kill your father and usurp the throne."
"If you were to become a Kaiser, what would Li Tangguo become?"
"If you can even kill your own father, after this is over, will I be able to live? Anyone who knows of this matter will probably die, right? "
"It doesn't matter if I die, but my wife and children have been implicated in vain!"
Lin Chong secretly thought, his fists clenched, his nails digging into his palms, the veins on his arms exposed.
"No!" I can't let Li Jian become the King! Right now, the only person who can stop him is the Guo Family! "
After thinking about it, Lin Chong released his fist and instructed the few assistant generals beside him to continue their patrol. He returned to the Yuelin Army's living quarters and started writing.
It was midnight.
Guo Nan and Guo Ziyi went down the roof, preparing to take a short nap to save enough energy for their early dynasty.
Just as they landed on the ground, Yang An hurriedly found Guo Ziyi and Guo Nan.
"Master, Young Master, the gatekeeper has found a letter."
Yang An passed the letter in his hand to Guo Ziyi.
Guo Ziyi frowned: "I did not know who sent them here."
"No, just an arrow."
Guo Ziyi nodded and opened the letter.
Under the hazy starlight, Guo Nan and Yang An saw the letter trembling in their hands. Guo Ziyi clenched his teeth, his old face pale white, and his tiger eyes filled with murderous intent.
"Li Yuan died! Li Bing also died!"
Guo Ziyi seemed to have aged a few years in an instant. He passed the letter to Guo Nan, clasped his hands behind his back, and raised his head to look at the night sky.
Guo Nan and Yang An came together. After reading the letter, both of their faces were heavy.
They did not have much feelings for the Li family, but Guo Ziyi was different. When Li Yuan was still young, he was already a vice general of the arena.
The relationship between him and Li Yuan was not that of an enemy, nor was it that of a close friendship that had forgotten its age. Everything that had happened in the Guo Family was bestowed to him by Guo Ziyi's two hands, as well as his trust.
It could be said that Li Yuan watched as he grew up, protected his Li Tang Jiang Shan by himself, and also caused him to not be able to sleep and eat well.
From Li Yuan, Guo Ziyi also gained status and respect.
Guo Ziyi being promoted to Danyuan Stage would allow his to live twenty years longer than an ordinary person. He had always been afraid that he would fall down in front of Guo Ziyi's male lion. He had always been worried that his own juniors would not be able to control the Guo Family and would lose the Li Tang Jiang Shan.
It wasn't until the Autumn Hunt gave him a huge reward that he finally felt at ease. Guo Ziyi would never go back on his words, and Guo Nan also didn't think much of the Li Family's martial arts.
The relationship between Guo Ziyi and his was extremely complicated.
Li Yuan's death was like a monstrous wave in Guo Ziyi's heart, but in Guo Nan and Yang An's eyes, it was only sudden and blank, with a trace of worry.
"Stop Li Jian from ascending the throne!" The three of them looked at each other and reached a consensus.
In the monthly assembly, officials of the sixth stage and above of Changyang City were arranged according to the size of the official's uniform and placed outside the entrance.
When the morning bell was rung, the afternoon gate creaked open. Over a thousand officials filed in, crossed the Golden Water Bridge, and walked to the Taihe Temple Square.
At the entrance of the Supreme Harmony Hall, there was a set of Dragon Throne s. On both sides of the Dragon Throne, there were tens of palace maids and Yuelin Army guards.
Guo Ziyi and Yuwen Ji stood together in the middle of the first row.
Yuwen Ji tilted his head and stared at Guo Ziyi, secretly pleased with himself: "You've fought with me for your entire life, and in the end, it turns out that I've still won!"
Guo Ziyi ignored Yuwen Ji. He worriedly thought, on Guo Nan's side, are you ready?
An hour later, Li Yuan was still not here, so all the officials were waiting quietly.
Two hours later, the Dragon Throne was still empty.
In another two hours, when the sun was high in the sky, the doors of the Supreme Harmony Temple were tightly shut, and whispers filled the entire plaza.
How important was the monthly assembly? Why was Kaiser so late?
Creak!
A dull sound echoed out as the ministers raised their heads to take a look. The door of the Supreme Harmony Temple had been opened.
An old eunuch walked out while wiping his tears. He looked at the officials on the square and took a deep breath.
"Kaiser is dead!"
