Cabbage sat on the footrest and said, "I'm here to watch over you. Go to sleep."
Xiao Lezi raised his head and glanced out the window and yawned lazily: "I hope it will dawn soon."
She retreated into the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
Cabbage hugged his knees with both hands, rested his chin on his arms, stared blankly at the black night sky outside the window, and whispered softly: "God bless me, I hope he will be safe and sound..."
At the entrance of Jinhua Palace, the concubines were kneeling all over the floor, all crying with tears on their faces.
Most of them are still young, the youngest among them is only fourteen years old, which is the most fragrant age, but the man who nourished them has already given up. From now on, those who have sons will rely on their sons, and those who do not have sons will only rely on their sons.
To die alone and hopelessly in the palace.
They just felt that the sky was falling, and their confusion about the future plunged them into deep panic.
The princes, big and small, all knelt beside him. Their faces were filled with tears and they were extremely sad. However, compared to the fear of the concubines, they had more long-term thoughts.
Just now, the emperor knew that he could not live anymore, but ordered everyone to go out, leaving only the prince Xiao Feng. The father and son talked for a long time inside, and no one knew what the conversation was about.
This made the princes very nervous.
What important thing does the father want to say to the prince, so he has to avoid everyone?
No one knows the answer to this.
The eldest prince Xiao Yun was kneeling at the front. The third and fourth princes closest to him also had different expressions. They whispered: "Brother, as soon as our father dies, we will take action immediately. This is our last
If we miss this opportunity, we will never be able to turn around again!"
Xiao Yun's face was solemn and he stared at the closed door in front of him. He couldn't understand why his father deliberately left his second child behind before he died.
They are both his biological sons, so why are their treatments so different?
It's not fair! It's not fair!
Xiao Yun's hands were tightly clenched into fists, and his nails dug into his flesh, causing sharp pain. However, he didn't care. He just stared at the door motionlessly, his burning eyes seeming to penetrate the door so that he could see clearly what was inside.
What on earth is the father thinking?
A heavy sadness surged into my heart, making me feel extremely uncomfortable.
Until Xiao Feng opened the door and walked out slowly, his eyes were filled with deep sadness, with tears hanging from the corners of his eyes, and his voice was hoarse but extremely strong and vigorous: "Father, he passed away!"
For a moment, the color of the sky and the earth changed, thousands of people were crying, and the mournful cries resounded throughout the palace, which was particularly tragic.
The third prince and the fourth prince immediately raised their heads, grabbed Xiao Yun's arm, gritted their teeth and said: "Now, we can't wait any longer, think about your mother and concubine!"
The face of his mother-in-law before she died immediately appeared in Xiao Yun's mind. She was so sad and decisive. She was unwilling to leave. She spent the best years of her life and devoted all her love in her life, but what she got in exchange was that man.
The most ruthless disregard.
In the eyes of that man, there was only one woman that he could really take into his heart, and that was the dead Queen Jing'an.
Even though it was a dead woman, he still missed her.
It's really ridiculous that three thousand beauties in the harem tried their best to play tricks and even risked their lives, but they couldn't compete with a dead man!
As much as the mother-in-law loves that man, she hates that man.
She passed away with resentment in her heart, and her eyes before her death were deeply imprinted in Xiao Yun's mind.
Once upon a time, every time he dreamed about it at midnight, he would be awakened by dreaming about these eyes.
Hate is passed down like this.
Xiao Yun slowly loosened his fingers and looked down at the bright red wound in his palm. The desolation and unwillingness in his heart were finally completely awakened. He was destined to be a child who was not loved by his father for the rest of his life, even if he had sacrificed more than other brothers.
No matter how hard you try, you can't get a sincere appreciation from your father.
In this case, why should he go through all the trouble? Just give it a try and bet on it!
He raised his hand and gently licked the wound on his palm, his eyes gradually burning with blazing ambition!
"Let's do it."
Three simple words were spat out by Xiao Yun lightly.
The third prince and the fourth prince were both overjoyed, and immediately made a secret gesture to the people who had been ambushing around them. Everyone was still immersed in sorrow, crying out of breath, but they didn't know that a shocking incident was already brewing.
In the middle, the undercurrent hidden under the dark night is surging.
After everyone's emotions calmed down a little, Xiao Feng slowly spoke: "My father passed away, my heart aches like a knife, and I wish I could accompany him to the west. However, the country cannot live without a king for a day. I have no choice but to uphold the legacy of my father.
Willing, endure the grief, take care of these thousands of miles of land on behalf of my father, and seek peace for the people of the world!"
The emperor died and the prince succeeded to the throne. This was a matter of course, so when they heard Xiao Feng's words, everyone had no objections. They knelt on their knees, bowed their heads and shouted in unison: "Long live my emperor, long live..."
Before he finished speaking, a sharp arrow suddenly shot out of the air and hit Xiao Feng's face!
Soon enough, Xiao Feng grabbed the little eunuch next to him and blocked him in front of him. Before the little eunuch could react, the sharp arrow had already penetrated his chest, and blood mist spurted out and splashed far away.
Everyone who witnessed this scene was stunned, and someone shouted: "There is an assassin...!"
They suddenly came to their senses and fled in all directions, rolling and crawling on the ground.
Immediately afterwards, several more arrows were shot out, falling like rain. Unfortunately, some people who were running slowly were stabbed, crying and howling in pain, and fell to the ground rolling in a pool of blood.
At this time, everyone was only focused on escaping for their own lives. There were numerous figures, footsteps and screams, and the scene was like a pot of rotten porridge.
A group of men in black armed with sharp swords descended from the sky and surrounded Xiao Feng. They all covered their faces with black scarves and were full of rage. Without saying any nonsense, they directly swung their swords and rushed towards Xiao Feng!
Xiao Feng has been practicing all year round and his skills are naturally good. However, the opponent has many people and weapons, so the situation is very unfavorable for him.
After a few simple moves, Xiao Feng put back his posture and shouted: "Here comes someone!"
The third and fourth princes, who were standing not far away and watched this scene, couldn't help but chuckle. The fourth prince said sarcastically: "We are already in a battle between trapped beasts. If you still have the strength to save your life, the second prince's brain is afraid."
He must have been kicked by a donkey!"
The third prince also laughed: "We have already controlled the Imperial Guards in this palace, and we have dealt with the disobedient General Lin. We are all here now. Even if he asks Potian to go, there will be no one."
I’ll take care of him!”
Xiao Yun quietly looked at his second brother who was about to be killed due to his predicament. His usually gentle brows revealed a fierce murderous aura, and he felt an almost perverted joy in his heart!
What he has put in countless efforts for over the years is now close at hand and within easy reach. How can he not be excited?
Father, if you have a spirit in heaven, just open your eyes and see that your son can still achieve imperial hegemony by relying on his own abilities even without your support!
Just when everyone thought Xiao Feng would be surrounded and die, a burst of horse hoofbeats came from all directions. Xiao Yun suddenly opened his eyes wide and followed the sound. He saw General Lin riding a tall horse, leading all the imperial guards.
All the men in black gathered around!
The mantis stalks the cicada, but the oriole follows behind!
Xiao Feng looked at all this in disbelief. He had worked hard to deploy the plan for so long. As soon as Xiao Feng died, he would put all the blame on the assassins who assassinated the emperor before. Anyway, no one knew who the real murderer was.
Whoever dies has no evidence. Then he can inherit the throne as the eldest son. By then, all the connections he has buried in the court will be put into operation, and then he will be able to truly secure the throne.
But no one expected that at the most critical moment, they would fall short!
Xiao Feng actually had a backup plan!
Damn it, luckily I thought I was going to win soon, but it turned out that Xiao Feng had already controlled everything, and they were all pawns in Xiao Feng's hands!
Strong humiliation and unwillingness came to his heart, and Xiao Yun turned pale with anger. He stared at Xiao Feng, who was surrounded by people but could still maintain a calm momentum. His eyes were red with hatred. He pushed away and planned to drag him away.
The third and fourth brothers who were running away casually grabbed a big bow.
He drew his bow and nocked an arrow, pointed it behind Xiao Feng, and suddenly let go!
The arrow flew out with a swish, carrying the wind.
General Lin immediately exclaimed: "Your Highness, be careful!"
However it was too late.
It was too late for Xiao Feng to dodge, and the arrow hit his shoulder. Blood gushed out, dyeing his clothes red, and bloomed into large tracts of bright red flowers.
He covered his wound and slowly fell down, but his eyes looked in the direction of Xiao Yun. Even though he was hit by a sharp arrow, his eyes were still full of the emperor's majesty and invincibility. He pointed at Xiao Yun and said: "
Catch them and keep them alive!"
"Yes!" General Lin immediately sent people to arrest all the rebels who made trouble, and Xiao Feng was rushed back to the East Palace.
When the door of the palace was kicked open, Cabbage, who was dozing off, jumped up in fear. She watched in horror as the prince was carried in by a group of people. There was a sharp arrow stuck in the prince's shoulder and he was bleeding.
She quickly stood up and pulled the little Lezi out of bed with all her strength.
Xiao Lezi, who was immersed in sleep, was woken up. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and stood barefoot on the ground. She saw Xiao Feng being put on the bed, and there were many people surrounding the bed, chattering non-stop.
Xiao Lezi yawned loudly, looked around, and found that nothing happened to him. He took out a quilt from the closet, wrapped it around himself, and squatted in the corner to continue sleeping.
When Cabbage found her, he found that she was already asleep and almost fell to his knees.
There was a chaos of war outside. It was said that someone was planning to rebel just now. I don't know if there are any remnants of the rebels in the palace. Everyone was frightened. Only she could continue to sleep peacefully. This girl was probably more nervous than a pig's foot.
Even thicker!
Cabbage walked over, pulled her out of the quilt, grabbed her shoulders and shook her hard: "Stop sleeping, His Highness wants to see you!"
If I go, I won’t be able to sleep peacefully. I won’t be able to survive this day!
Xiao Lezi opened his eyes impatiently, his eyes were bright red, like an angry little rabbit: "He is going to die, why do you still see me? Do you expect me to bury him with him?" (To be continued)
