Chapter 948 The storm is coming
"Um?"
The eldest prince frowned. Hearing the sound of the wheelchair, he couldn't help but think of his third brother.
Then, the door opened, and the figure of the third prince really came into view.
Seeing the crippled third prince, the eldest prince immediately showed disdain: "Third brother, since your leg is crippled, you should just stay at home. Why did you come to my Chengqian Palace?"
A look of anger flashed in the third prince's eyes, and then he said: "Brother, your legs are intact, but your situation seems to be worse than mine. I can still come to Ciqing Palace, but you can't even get out of the palace gate."
"You actually compare me to you?"
The eldest prince was angry, and then sneered, "Ning Qingyu put me under house arrest just because she knew I was about to ascend the throne and wanted to show off her power before that. Otherwise, she would never have such an opportunity again."
"oh?"
The third prince lowered his head slightly, "So, there are rumors outside that you are going to ascend the throne soon, is it true?"
Although he had a premonition before that his legs were disabled and the person who would take the throne would probably be the eldest prince, but when he heard the eldest prince speak with his own ears, he still felt like his heart was cut by a knife.
"Haha, apart from me, who else is qualified to ascend the throne? Is it because of you, a loser?"
The eldest prince showed a proud smile on his face, "Third brother, third brother, you and I have been fighting for more than ten years, and I am the one who wins in the end."
Before he finished speaking, the third prince suddenly raised his head and stared at him with extremely vicious eyes.
"not good."
The eldest prince secretly thought that something was wrong, and hurriedly backed away while shouting, "Someone, come to the rescue quickly."
Stab!
The next moment, a pocket scimitar flew out from the third prince's sleeve robe, grew in size visibly to the naked eye, and in an instant turned into a scimitar more than one meter long, slashing at the eldest prince.
The eldest prince was so proud that he thought he had completely defeated the third prince. How could he have imagined that the third prince would dare to attack him in Ciqing Palace.
What's more, the scimitar in the hands of the third prince is not an ordinary spiritual weapon, but a sacred weapon.
Immediately, although the eldest prince's reaction was quick enough and he avoided the critical point, his legs still did not escape and were cut off at the knee level by the third prince's scimitar.
With a pop, blood sprayed out, and the eldest prince's body fell to the ground, screaming in pain.
"Haha, big brother, big brother, now you are also a waste. Compared with me, you have no advantage at all. Do you think you will inherit this throne, or will I inherit it?"
The third prince laughed ferociously.
At this time, the imperial guards outside the palace had arrived. When they arrived at Ciqing Palace, what they heard was the third prince's ferocious laughter and this miserable scene.
The news came out that day. The eldest prince, who had high hopes and was the most vocal, and was expected to ascend the throne, had his legs cut off by the third prince and became a cripple.
In an instant, the entire Yanjing was in an uproar, and then fell into silence.
Nowadays, the situation seems to be getting more and more complicated. After the third prince, the eldest prince has also been deposed. The other princes are either young or incompetent. Who should inherit the country of Yan?
In this silent atmosphere, an even more shocking news came from the palace. In one month, Ning Qingyu will ascend the throne as king.
As soon as the news came out, the whole Yanjing was in an uproar, and then the whole country was in an uproar.
Soon after, the world was shaken.
The first thought of countless people was whether Ning Qingyu was crazy.
But then people remembered that there were so many talented people around Ning Qingyu, and even if she was crazy, it was impossible for others to be crazy.
This can only show that Ning Qingyu really wants to ascend the throne.
In an instant, the whole world opposed it and the situation exploded, which was more violent than Lin Mu, Song Xu and others imagined.
During the Chengqian Palace meeting, Zhang Bo and others were still confident and thought they could control the situation. However, they found that as soon as the news came out, the situation in the country almost collapsed.
As someone outside, there are people outside who are trying to kill Zhang Bo, Ning Qingyu and others under the banner of "Kill the traitors and eliminate the witches".
"The treacherous ministers are in power and the demonic women are in charge. They actually want to plot against the country and violate the human nature of Yin and Yang. This is an unforgivable crime."
Among them, a group of people, including the current Grand Tutor Du Zhou and members of the royal family, reacted the most violently and called on the imperial army and imperial guards to eradicate Ning Qingyu.
But they soon discovered that the control of the imperial army and the imperial guards had long been controlled by Xu Guang and Wu Yue, and these two people were both Ning Qingyu's people.
At this moment, these ministers immediately realized that the situation was not good, and Ning Qingyu was obviously well prepared.
Just as they were preparing to leave Yanjing and join local armies in various places to jointly oppose Ning Qingyu, the Dark Night Camp had found various people from the homes of these opposing ministers who were corrupt and perverted the law, bullied the market, or raped women of the people.
evidence of guilt.
The next day, all the opposition ministers headed by Du Zhou were arrested.
On the third day, the verdict order came out. With the exception of Du Zhouding, who was demoted to a commoner with Hua Ling, the other ministers were connected with the former imperial guards to command the Zuotian Dynasty. The general Huo Meng, the imperial censor Xiao Guangsen, and the minister Lang Fengyuan of the Ministry of Rites were all killed.
The killing, the exile.
As soon as this iron-blooded method came out, the entire Yanjing fell into silence.
The eldest prince and the third prince in the palace were also dumbfounded after hearing the news.
They always thought that Ning Qingyu could not do without them and would invite them to inherit the throne sooner or later.
But who would have thought that Ning Qingyu would actually establish himself as king.
However, after the iron-blooded killings, although Yanjing calmed down, the opposition from the major prefectures of the Yan Kingdom became more intense, believing that Ning Qingyu was going retrograde and was cruel and unethical.
Tens of thousands of years of civilization and tradition have made it impossible for people to accept a woman as a king.
Amidst these waves of opposition, Ning Qingyu, Lin Mu, Song Xu and others had solemn expressions and were not affected by the external trend.
Although this trend is somewhat beyond their expectations, it is generally still under control.
Moreover, they chose to release the news at this time because the time has really come.
"Are you sure that Chu State will launch a large-scale attack on Yan State in half a month?"
Zhang Bo said in a solemn voice.
"Based on the information investigated by the Dark Night Camp, we are 90% sure."
The woman in white next to Ning Qingyu said.
Now everyone knows that this woman in white is Yexiu of the Black Night Camp, one of the seven elders, and a martial arts master.
"Basically, the investigation by Tianyan and Xichuan News Agency is 80% sure."
Song Xudao.
"fair enough."
Zhang Bo sighed, "Chu State has been controlled by demons. The attack will come sooner or later. This is inevitable. Now that it has come, it will divert the attention of the domestic subjects and let them devote their energy to Chu State's war.
"
Sure enough, three days later, when the people of Yan State were in an uproar against Ning Qingyu, news spread from Chu State to Yan State.
Chu State and Yue State have formed an alliance, and they have also united with Zhao State, Man State and Hu State, a total of five countries, to destroy Yan State.
The seven major hegemonic countries on the mainland, except Song State, which has close economic ties with Yan State and has no choice but to support Yan State, have all turned against Yan State.
