Chapter 100 The death of the emperor

Gradually away from the palace gate and integrated into the night, Xuan Sa's body gradually regained consciousness. The shining eyes searched for everything in the dark. After a while, the horn took Xuan Sa to a mountain.

A person rushed out of the darkness, and the horn immediately became alert and narrowed his eyes. The other party issued a low whistle, and the horn hurriedly responded, and the other party appeared from the darkness.

"What's wrong with Wang?" Linghu saw clearly Xuan Sa, who was crooked in the corner. His clothes were ragged and his face was pale. He became nervous and hurried to help him.

"I'm fine!" Xuan Sa straightened up, leaned against Linghu, waved his hand and said faintly, "Are you ready?"

"Everything is ready, just wait for the king's order!" The firelight of the imperial capital was thrown far behind Xuan Sa and Jiao. He only saw the figures of Xuan Sa and Jiao, and Ni glanced at the corner with a little doubt.

"General, take good care of the king. I'll go to the palace to pick up the young lady immediately!" When the horn touched Linghu's eyes, he knew the worry in Linghu's eyes and hurriedly hugged his fist and said.

Xuan Sa's body, which relied on Linghu, suddenly stiffened, and a trace of pain flashed in his eyes like a star in the night. His eyes tightened, and he said diagonally, "I want her not to be hurt!"

"I understand!" Jiao looked up at Xuan Sa, but felt that there was a sense of self-reproach and deep guilt in Xuan Sa's eyes. Jiao only regarded Xuan Sa because Lin Yi didn't care about his life in order to save himself, so he didn't think much about it. He hugged his fist and arched his hand and replied solemnly. With a little toes, he turned his body and disappeared in the night and flew away to the burning imperial capital.

"King, Prince Murong's hands are lurking at the foot of Qingquan Mountain, waiting for our order to rush to the imperial capital at any time." Xuan Sa's clothes were dilapidated, and Linghu had already prepared a clean one for Xuan Sa to change.

"Is the deployment in the city all appropriate?" Xuan Sa changed his clothes and stood on the top of the mountain and looked straight at the imperial capital. He frowned deeply, clenched his fists behind him, and his stiff fingers revealed his inner anxiety.

"Miss Lin Yi's plan is very good. If you cooperate with our deployment, it will be foolproof!"

"Lin Yi..." Xuan Sa muttered, and his nails were deeply embedded in the palm of his hand, but he didn't feel any pain at all. He just stared at the imperial capital with the fire.

"Wang, it should not be too late..." Linghu's voice didn't fall, but he only heard Xuan Sa's low sigh, and Ling Hu hurriedly stopped talking.

"Go on and attack the city!"

"Yes!"

In the palace, in the hall, the queen slowly walked to the dragon chair in gorgeous clothes, holding a roll of golden silk tightly in her hands hidden in her sleeves. Her cold face was accompanied by a trace of sadness, and her slightly bloody eyes flashed with cold light, and her tight lips were full of chill everywhere.

"Empress, the ministers are waiting outside the palace!" A palace man stepped forward from outside the hall and whispered respectfully.

"Xuan!"

However, the hall was full of people, all the ministers and nobles who participated in Lin Yi's wedding a few hours ago. Because of this sudden change, some people were panicked and finally got the news, but they only saw the queen in the hall.

After seeing the queen's gift, everyone looked at each other and waited for the queen's next words. What they didn't expect was that the queen suddenly read the news that the emperor of Zhou unfortunately died in the fire, followed by the emperor's deathbed decree to pass the throne to the ten princes.

What kind of person is the ten princes? His biological mother is just the lowest palace slave, but it is only the result of the emperor's accidental drunkenness. The emperor, who never remembers in everyone's hearts, has such a bloodline. Even the emperor himself has never seen him, so that he has lived for ten years, but he has never seen the emperor. Can everyone not be surprised and suspicious when they suddenly learn that the emperor will be rumored to him?

"Your Majesty, it's too late!"

"Your Majesty, you are incompetent!"

"Your Majesty..."

For a while, several ministers in the hall burst into tears, knelt on the ground, howled, and said in a sad tone, as if they were going to their closest relatives.

"Queen, the emperor's death, such a big event is not allowed to be careless. Please wait to see the emperor's face for the last time!" Seeing the crying ministers in the crowd, they suddenly reacted and stepped forward to pull the people kneeling on the ground.

"The emperor was buried in the sea of fire, and there were no bones left. I'm afraid the ministers and workers can't do it! With this intention, you should follow the emperor's will to assist the young master and protect the rivers and mountains of the Zhou Dynasty!"

"Queen, please forgive me for not being able to believe this! The emperor has always loved the ninth prince. Even if the emperor unfortunately dies, he will never pass the throne to the humble ten princes. Please forgive me for not obeying orders!" The minister who spoke before forced him to take another step forward and said aggressively.

"Yes, we will never believe that the emperor passed the throne to the tenth prince on his deathbed!"

"The imperial edict must be false..."

"Presumptuous!" The palace people around the queen looked awe-hearted and shouted harshly.

The corners of the queen's lips rose slightly, waved to the palace people to retreat, took a step down, and shook the imperial edict in her hand in front of the minister: "Since the marquis does not believe it, you can personally verify whether this edict is written by the emperor!"

The man grabbed the golden silk from the queen's hand and spread it out in front of him, as if he wanted to find a clue, but after looking at it for a long time, he opened his mouth and stayed in disbelief.

"Marquis, how about it? Is it the emperor's handwriting?" Another minister who followed him saw that the marquis had not moved for a long time and came up. He looked at the imperial edict. He was stunned and muttered, "Impossible, absolutely impossible. I will never believe that the emperor will issue this edict. There must be a threat, and the emperor is in trouble! Come on, help!"

A large number of imperial troops poured into the hall and rushed straight to the minister's side. The minister pointed to the imperial army and said, "You follow me quickly to the Qinzheng Hall to rescue the emperor!" With that, he was about to go out of the hall. Who knew which royal army couldn't help obeying him. Instead, they pulled out their long swords at their waists and stood in front of him.

"You, are you rebeling? Don't you see who I am clearly?"

"Lord Wei is the commander of the imperial city. Why didn't his subordinates know it?" Among them, the first royal forest army had a sarcastic smile on his lips.

"Since I know, why are you in the way?" Wei Da stared angrily, and his eyes were cold.

"Empress, Lord Wei roared in the hall, what should I do?" The Royal Forest Army ignored Lord Wei's question, but turned around and bowed to ask Empress Gong.

"If you commit a crime under Wei, kill the staff outside the palace to set an example!" The queen's voice is slow, but a few light words have determined a person's life and death.

Wei stared at the queen in disbelief. Before he opened his mouth, he was driven out of the hall by the imperial army. Not long after, his wailing came from outside the hall. At first, it was still loud and powerful, but when a few sticks went down, the voice gradually became much smaller, and later it became almost inaudible. At this time, the people in the hall realized that the situation they were facing now had a sense of sadness and coldness. Few people dare to raise any doubts.
