Seeing this, the ministers were all smart people and there was nothing they didn't understand.
The second prince saw everyone's expressions and suddenly felt a little satisfied.
This is the expression he wants from everyone.
At this moment, several old ministers stepped forward and looked at the second prince in front of them with unfriendly eyes.
"You are not orthodox!"
"You are still young and haven't even learned how to govern a country."
"With such a narrow mind, how can you shoulder the responsibility of governing the world?"
"If you were allowed to ascend the throne, wouldn't that make the whole world laugh and cry?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the second prince's face instantly became embarrassed.
He looked at the old ministers who were looking at him coldly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"You truly are the most loyal dogs that father and son have ever raised! Since you're so devoted to them, I'll grant your wish and send you to see the late emperor!"
After saying that, the Second Prince looked at the guards standing there and said coldly, "What are you still standing there for? Kill them!"
The guards responded immediately, swords drawn, and walked straight towards the ministers. The Second Prince then looked at the ministers with a faint smile on his face and said, "Who else wants to end up like them?"
As he finished speaking, some of the less prominent minor officials stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, we are willing to obey your command!"
The word "Your Majesty" instantly made the Second Prince feel better.
He looked at those people with unprecedented satisfaction in his eyes.
At this time, the ministers had been surrounded by the Royal Guards, and only death was waiting for them.
One of the ministers even closed his eyes, waiting for death to come.
But he still kept muttering, "How can a traitor like me be able to shoulder such a great responsibility..."
The vein on the Second Prince's forehead throbbed, and he snapped, "Why don't you kill them now? What are you waiting for?"
The guard raised the sword in his hand and swung it down with force.
Some ministers present did not dare to watch the scene that followed, and some even covered their eyes.
At this time, the hall was quiet and everyone was waiting for the final outcome.
However, the scene was not as miserable as they had imagined, but instead the panicked voice of the Second Prince was heard.
"Prince, why are you here?"
As these words fell, some ministers looked happily at the position where the second prince was standing at the top.
It was none other than the prince who had disappeared.
Although he is about the same age as the Second Prince, he has a calm and steady temperament that is completely unlike what a child should have, giving people an unprecedented sense of security.
"Your Highness..."
The minister who had just been nearly killed burst into tears when he saw him.
They know that their choice will not be wrong.
The prince looked at the ministers, and the stern expression on his face softened a little. "It's my fault. I came too late, and the ministers have suffered!"
"I am not suffering!"
Suddenly, several people said in unison.
As Meng Qinian approached step by step, the second prince suddenly panicked.
He looked at the guards standing behind him and shouted, "What are you still doing standing there? Kill him quickly!"
However, as his words fell, none of the guards who had been so obedient just now moved.
The second prince panicked instantly and drew the sword from his waist and pointed it at Meng Qinian.
Then, he rushed to the front regardless of everything.
Since he cannot ascend the throne today, the other party cannot either.
However, before he even got close with the sword, he felt a pain in his neck.
The second prince lowered his head and looked slowly, only to see blood oozing out from his neck little by little.
"No……"
The second prince covered the injured area and shouted unwillingly.
God gave him a new life just to give him this position, so how could he let himself die?
Watching his body fall down bit by bit, the prince seemed to have already seen what was in his mind.
“Everything depends on human effort!”
"Second brother, you lose."
As the words fell, the second prince's body slowly fell down.
The blood gradually dyed the ground red, and the second prince fell to the ground unwillingly.
His eyes were wide open, and he looked at her unwillingly.
He couldn't understand why he died at the critical moment when his plan was obviously foolproof.
At this time, on the other side.
In the Queen's palace.
Concubine Rou came with a large number of eunuchs and palace maids. Her face no longer had the humility of the past, but was filled with indescribable arrogance.
She looked at the queen who was still sitting there calmly drinking tea, and a hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes.
But when he thought about the future, he suddenly became arrogant.
"Your Highness, you will be a prisoner in the future. Today, I can give you a chance to explain your mistakes. I can even leave you with an intact body."
The queen did not move and continued to drink the tea in her hand calmly.
Seeing that the other party ignored her, Concubine Rou felt a little annoyed.
It's come to this point, and the other party is still pretending. It's really too much.
She walked up quickly, stretched out her hand and slapped the queen's teacup over.
In this brief moment, Concubine Rou's eyes suddenly widened.
She subconsciously covered the pain in her neck and slowly looked at the outstretched hand.
As the world before her eyes was gradually dyed with dazzling bright red, Concubine Rou fell to the ground unwillingly.
The maids beside the queen did not show any panic, but instead handled the several maids who followed them with great calmness.
