In the tunnel, a basin of cold water was poured down, and Zhu Di slowly woke up. He raised his eyelids with difficulty, and when the two images in front of him merged into one, he could clearly see a thin back.
"Who are you..." Zhu Di was in a daze. He felt that this person was familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was.
The man was happy, and turned around when he heard the sound, revealing a young and handsome face, but full of vicissitudes of life.
"Wang Xian!" Zhu Di suddenly opened his eyes, understood everything immediately, and roared at the top of his lungs: "It turns out you are the one causing trouble!"
"Yes, it's me who is causing trouble." Wang Xian nodded, and said lightly: "If I hadn't revealed the news that His Majesty has woken up, His Highness King Zhao would not have launched an early attack tonight," he said with a smile: "If
After the morning court tomorrow, His Highness King Zhao will probably have no choice but to accept his fate no matter how unwilling he is. It has indeed disappointed His Majesty."
"Are you the one who caused trouble for me in the warrior camp in the secret passage?" Zhu Di stared at Wang Xian with bulging veins on his forehead.
"Yes. They were also caught in the smoke and all passed out," Wang Xian said calmly: "Just in case, I also sent five hundred subordinates to guard the secret passage to ensure that no warrior battalion soldiers could
Come out of the secret passage and rescue the driver."
"How did you know that there was a secret passage?" Zhu Di didn't think that Wang Xian was causing trouble. He just thought that Wang Xian couldn't know the secret of the secret passage, so he excluded him.
"This is purely coincidental," Wang Xian said with a smile: "Taoist Master Hu has been staying in the side hall for two months. In addition to refining elixirs, he also wanted to dig a tunnel leading to the emperor's bedroom in case of emergency. Who knew he would actually dig it?
I have accessed His Majesty’s secret passage. When Your Majesty suffered a stroke, Wang Guifei ordered people to arrest him, and he escaped from Your Majesty’s secret passage.” As he spoke, he shook his head in disbelief and said, “What I didn’t expect was that Wang Guifei’s
People actually didn’t discover the tunnel entrance hidden under the alchemy furnace, it’s really useless.”
"It turns out that Taoist Hu was indeed arranged by you!" Zhu Di suddenly realized and gritted his teeth.
"Yes, Taoist Hu was arranged by me." Wang Xian readily admitted.
Zhu Di's eyes were spitting fire, and he wished he could skin Wang Xiansheng alive: "You also killed my son?"
"Yes, the King of Han is my sword." Wang Xian nodded.
"And my grandson, Zhu Zhantan, was also killed by you?" Zhu Di has never hated a person so much.
"Yes, I also killed Zhu Zhantan with my own hands." Wang Xian still nodded.
"My noble concubine was also killed by you?" Zhu Di's voice became more and more urgent, and the overwhelming hatred could drown the Ming Dynasty.
"Although I did not kill Wang Guifei myself, the person who did it was under my guidance, so you can put this account on my head." Wang Xian said expressionlessly.
"Haha! I really saw it right. You are the most rebellious traitor in history!" Zhu Di laughed angrily and roared like a madman.
"I'll accept the word "rebellious minister" with a smile," Wang Xian straightened his face and said in a deep voice, "But I, Wang Xian, have always done things worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth. The word 'thief' should be enjoyed by your majesty yourself!"
"You!" Zhu Di seemed to go back twenty years ago, when the Jingnan ended and Fang Xiaoru, Tie Xuan and others were caught in front of him! Those people also cursed endlessly, but at that time, he had a butcher knife in his hand and could
Kill them quickly!
But now, he can only lie on the ground like a dead dog, letting the other party fuck him wantonly, with no way...
"What I regret most is that I left you alive!" Zhu Di could only let his anger, powerlessness and shame overwhelm him. Looking at Wang Xian standing in front of him, he weakly said: "It's funny that I still hesitate.
Yu, I don’t want to kill you simply!"
"You have personally killed Wang Xian, who was devoted to being a loyal minister!" Wang Xian looked at the exhausted Zhu Di on the ground with a cold expression and said calmly.
"Yes! I can't tolerate you. If you really want to be a loyal minister, don't you know what it means when a king tells his ministers to die, and they have to die!" Zhu Di sneered again and again, mocking Wang Xian's hypocrisy.
"If this is the standard for a loyal minister, then I will be a rebellious minister!" Wang Xian raised his sword eyebrows and said loudly: "My king's fate is not up to me! It is not up to you, the emperor!" As he said,
He smiled at Zhu Di and said: "If you want to kill me, you have to rely on your ability, but obviously, you don't have this ability..."
"You..." Zhu Di was so angry that he coughed up a mouthful of blood, his eyes widened and screamed: "If I were a few years younger, how would I have the chance to act like you?!"
"It's a pity that you are already an old dog that is about to die..." Wang Xian curled his lips with disdain and said: "Since you know that you are getting old, you should stop caring about the world as soon as possible and enjoy your life. You are always delusional.
For thousands of generations, I am the only one who can only humiliate myself, drag down my descendants, and harm the people!" After a pause, Wang Xian said word by word: "Old thief, if you don't stop growing old, you are a thief!"
"You! What qualifications do you have to judge me like this?!" Zhu Di turned pale with anger, but still said sternly: "You keep saying that you are worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth. Then tell your conscience, do I have contributed to the great Ming Dynasty?
Thousands of years! In the past dynasties, no one has achieved anything as great as my emperor!"
"What you care about is only merit and the historical status of an emperor throughout the ages." Wang Xian shook his head and said with firm eyes: "But the people just want to live a peaceful life for a few days and have enough to eat. You don't even have this most basic need.
Pay no attention to it, and ignore the fact that the people of the Ming Dynasty were exhausted and starved to death for thousands of miles. They only knew how to frantically squander the people's wealth, build large-scale construction projects, and show off their power! Your great achievements are nothing but the blood and tears of hundreds of millions of people!" Wang Xian raised his voice and said: "You are like this
I don’t think it’s okay to have great achievements! As an emperor like you, it’s better to return to the West as soon as possible!”
'Pfft...' Zhu Di finally couldn't help it, and spat out a mouthful of blood on his chest. He still tried to hold on and retorted weakly: "What do you know? I am suffering for one generation and opening up the foundation for all generations..."
"Whatever you say..." Wang Xian shook his head disdainfully and waved his hand.
Several guards stepped forward and lifted Zhu Di up.
"Let me ask you the last question..." Zhu Di didn't care where those people were sending him, he just stared at Wang Xiandao: "Xu Miaojin, do you and I have an affair?!"
"..." Wang Xian looked at Zhu Di expressionlessly. After a while, he nodded heavily and said one word from between his teeth: "Yes!"
‘Poof…’ Zhu Di spurted out another mouthful of blood and fainted…
In the smoke-filled palace, King Zhao ordered people to chop and burn with swords, and finally dismantled the huge sandalwood dragon bed, and saw the scene under the bed.
Then King Zhao was dumbfounded. He saw that the entrance to the secret passage was blocked by a huge iron plate weighing two to three thousand kilograms. The iron plate and the secret passage were tightly connected, and there were mechanisms connected underneath. There was no way to open it, so there was no way to remove the iron plate.
of……
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid it will be useless to burn him now..." the subordinate on the side whispered.
King Zhao glared at the bastard fiercely, and secretly said, "I can only find another way out..." Before turning around and leaving, he glanced at the thick iron plate with hatred, and a burst of anger arose in his heart.
Kicked him up.
One foot hit the iron plate, and His Highness King Zhao immediately jumped in pain.
Meng Xian and others on the side were about to step forward to help, but they all opened their mouths - they saw the huge iron plate slowly turning over with a banging sound, revealing the dark hole in the ground!
Seeing the opening of the cave, King Zhao was also shocked. He didn't care about the pain in his feet, and the golden rooster was standing there alone. There was only one thought in everyone's mind: 'This will work!'
Under everyone's attention, the cave entrance opened wide, and a wooden platform covered with quilts slowly rose up in the cave. Lying on the wooden platform was a motionless old man. Who could he be if he wasn't Zhu Di?!
"It's really hard to find a place without wearing iron shoes. It takes no effort to get here!" After a moment of sluggishness, the clever subordinates shouted: "Your Majesty, it is your destiny!" Everyone came back to their senses and thought about the prince's replacement.
The king ordered to kill this old man and reward him with ten thousand taels of gold, so he rushed towards the emperor!
King Zhao had just come to his senses, and his intuition was very strange. Just when he was about to say something, he saw that his men had already raised their swords and killed Zhu Di on the spot!
"Dead..." Looking at his father who could no longer die, King Zhao was stunned.
"Yes, my lord! It was the young one who did it!" "You're talking nonsense, it was me who killed him!" "It was me!" "It was me!" The subordinates rushed to express their merits, fearing that he would not be rewarded.
Looking at his father who was still staring at death, King Zhao was filled with bitterness and didn't know what to say...
"Your Majesty, hurry up and call for mourning!" Meng Xian hurriedly reminded him when he saw that King Zhao was surrounded by people. According to the plan, after the regicide, King Zhao should immediately announce the funeral, saying that the emperor died of illness. Then gather all the officials in front of the palace.
, read out the forged edict, saying that the emperor appointed King Zhao to take over the throne and so on.
Zhu Gaosui knew that there must be something wrong, but it was so chaotic at the moment that he couldn't think about it carefully. He could only suppress the chaotic thoughts, nodded, and was about to say in mourning: "Father... the emperor..."
At this moment, Peng Xu ran into the palace with rain all over his body and a panic-stricken look on his face. He interrupted King Zhao's funeral cry and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, something bad has happened. The royal guards have rescued the great grandson!"
"What?!" King Zhao was excited. He no longer thought about what was wrong. He glared at Peng Xu and roared: "Where is Zhao Ying? What does he do for food?!"
"Eunuch Zhao was wounded and escaped, but he has disappeared..." Peng Xu said in a panic: "The right guard of the government army has broken through the Xiyuan Gate, and now, led by Tai Sun, he is heading towards the palace together with the Jinyi Guards!"
As he spoke, he swallowed and said: "Brothers tried their best to stop it, but they couldn't stop it at all!"
"..." King Zhao's eyes widened, and he still didn't understand that the palace coup that he and Zhao Ying thought was easy, has gone bankrupt!
The subordinates were kept there until Meng Xian, a fool, drew his sword and shouted: "Your Majesty! Let's fight them!" Only then did the generals wake up and draw their swords one after another, ready to fight to the death!
"That's right!" King Zhao composed himself, looked deeply at Meng Xian and others and said, "Their strength is comparable to ours, we don't know who will win!" He also drew his sword and said impassionedly: "I will lead you to destroy this imperial edict!
