Chapter 299: The Mysterious Visitor from Daliang

Three years later, in the imperial capital of Daliang, at a guest inn.

A little white mouse sneaked into a guest room, and a young couple who looked like green people immediately stood up. The woman was wearing a emerald green dress and her long hair was neatly tied up.

"Xuan Xuan..."

The child who was leaning on the window and looking out climbed down and held the little white mouse in his palm: "What's wrong?"

“Squeak…squeak…squeak…”

The little white mouse cried and looked in the direction of Meng Jinghan.

After a long while, Xuanxuan finally put the little white mouse down: "Mom, the little white mouse said that the prince was under house arrest. It was true. Today, the emperor lost his temper again and said he would depose the prince, and then he vomited blood."

"The little white mouse also said that after the emperor was carried down, many people gathered around him and knelt on the ground crying, as if the emperor would not live long."

There was no trace of emotion in Meng Jinghan's eyes. That tyrant, who had personally killed his mother and grandfather's family, now knew the prince's evil ambitions?

"Humph! I guess the imperial city is in chaos now. The prince will definitely not sit still and wait for death. Xuanxuan, send the little white mouse to the prince's mansion, hide beside the prince, and report back at any time."

There was a knock on the door, and the voice was very low: "My lady!"

Ye Xin opened the door and saw Xuelang standing outside, with the hat on his head covering most of his face.

"Come in! How about it?"

Snow Wolf nodded: "All the brothers have been sent out, and the evidence from that year has been almost collected. The only thing missing is the most important witness. Your Highness, do you still remember the name of the person who delivered the letter that year?"

"He is a retainer of the Prime Minister's Mansion, his name is Zhang Yi. It has been so many years, I wonder if he is still around."

Snow Wolf picked up the teacup and drank it in one gulp: "That's easy! I'll go to the Prime Minister's Mansion now. Our foundation is still too shallow. Your Highness and the Lady Mistress must be prepared for a bloody battle."

"It is said that the Crown Prince and the Second Prince are planning to send troops to force the emperor to abdicate."

Meng Jinghan frowned slightly: "As expected, among us brothers, they are the ones with the most military power. You can ask the fourth prince Xiang for help. Although he has little power, he is deeply loved by my father."

Snow Wolf put on his hat, opened the door and left: "Don't worry, the emperor will be here in two days, I will definitely get it done."

"Xinxin, send me to the palace!" Meng Jinghan turned around and said to Ye Xin.

Ye Xin thought without hesitation: "No! You have no power at all now. Going into the palace now would mean you will die! Although Snow Wolf and his men are the guards of the imperial city, their foundation is still too shallow."

"Xinxin! I must handle this matter myself! If they force the emperor to abdicate in the next two days, it will be much more convenient for me there! I only ask you for this one thing! Promise me!"

Ye Xin felt helpless and could only sigh: "Let's go together! You come out when needed, and hide in the space when you have nothing to do. Let Xuelang and the others handle it!"

Nightfall.

The hooks easily embedded themselves into the tall city wall, and two dark shadows quickly sneaked into the city.

"My lady!" Snow Wolf lowered his voice: "Follow me."

Ye Xin followed the Snow Wolf into a low wooden house with candles burning inside.

"This is my resting place. The lady will stay here. Explosives have been buried at the city gate and the entrance to the Xuanyi Palace. The lady and His Highness can rest assured that those who want to force their way into the palace will not be able to get in."

"I will go to see the emperor tonight with the captain of the guard. I have the evidence with me. The truth will be revealed tonight!"

Ye Xin obviously felt that Meng Jinghan's body was shaking a little, so she reached out and held his hands: "Calm down!"

"I...I'll go with you! Let your guard captain come to see me!"

Snow Wolf was startled: "Your Highness! You cannot show up until the truth is revealed!"

Meng Jinghan shook his head and smiled: "Meng Liang has already found out the truth. The guard captain can be trusted."

"If I'm not mistaken, the abdication will take place tonight! My elder and second brothers will not allow the truth to be known to the world."

"Xinxin, call back all of our people and gather at Xuanyi Palace. Since they are looking for death, I don't mind giving them a ride!"

Meng Jinghan's eyes flashed with unprecedented cruelty and calmness. Ye Xin was stunned, then nodded: "From now on, I will obey your orders."

"Everyone, return to your positions!"

The night is pitch black.

Emperor Xuanwen Wang lay on his sickbed, trying hard to open his eyes. Looking at the evidence in front of him, his hands began to tremble.

"Your Majesty, please don't be impatient! This matter has been going on for so many years. If you want to overturn the verdict for the Third Prince, you have to wait until tomorrow morning for the court to let all the civil and military officials be witnesses."

The emperor shook his head: "It's too late! I seem to hear the sound of war drums..."

Snow Wolf lowered his head. This emperor was obviously extremely incompetent, but he was still so sensitive about his throne until his death!

That’s right, the Crown Prince and the Second Prince’s troops have already arrived at the Imperial City, but neither of them is willing to give in and are having a great time fighting!

"Li Defu, draft an edict... depose the crown prince! Throne... throne... is the fourth brother here?"

He closed his eyes, and two lines of thick tears flowed down his face: "If only the third brother was still here! The third brother... The third brother is the most suitable one among them to be the emperor."

He panted for a while: "What a pity! I am sorry to my beloved concubine, sorry to the old general, and even more sorry to the third brother..."

Snow Wolf quietly left the room: "Your Highness, do you want to let him know that you are still alive?"

Meng Jinghan shook his head: "Let the Third Prince die completely! I promised Ye Xin that after this matter is over, I will go back to the Mid-Levels Base with her."

"Bang..."

A huge noise echoed through the night sky, and the city gate began!

Xuanyi Palace, in front of the bed.

The fourth prince Meng Jinyun knelt on the ground: "Father, I am here!"

The emperor tried hard to stretch out a hand and touch Meng Jinyun's head, but he was never able to do so.

"Hey... Li Defu, draft an edict... depose the crown prince! Pass the throne to the fourth prince... Prince Xiang!"

Meng Jinyun was born with a pale face and red lips. With two lines of hot tears streaming down her cheeks, she whispered in the emperor's ear, "Father, my third brother is not dead! He is still alive."

After hearing this, the emperor's eyes widened immediately, and his lips moved: "Really...really?"

Meng Jinyun nodded vigorously: "Father knows my ability best. Now that my elder and second brothers are at the gates of the city, how can I stop them?"

"It's my third brother. He's standing guard outside the Xuanyi Palace, protecting our father!"

"Listen! The sound of the explosion was caused by the mysterious people brought by my third brother. My eldest and second brothers couldn't get in. It won't be too late to deal with them after my father is well again."

The emperor shook his head: "It's too late. I know my body..."

"Quick... call your third brother in... I... I want to see him..."

Meng Jinyun shook his head and said, "My third brother said that we should let the third prince Meng Jinghan die completely! As long as he is cleared of all charges, he doesn't want to show up in front of people."

The old man lying on the hospital bed closed his eyes helplessly: "This is his temper!... I am sorry after all... He still refuses to forgive me..."

"Bang!"

The noise was getting closer.

"Snow Wolf, it's up to you! Capture the prince alive! I will kill my enemy tonight!"

Snow Wolf took the order and left.

It's dawn.

The old emperor never saw the sun of a new day.

Outside the Xuanyi Palace, blood flowed like a river, and the entire imperial city was filled with the smell of blood.

Meng Jinghan stood in front of the former prince: "Brother, have you ever thought that this day would come?"

When the prince saw Meng Jinghan, he suddenly laughed out loud: "Hahahaha...hahahaha!"

"They all said that my third brother had died a long time ago, but I know that you have always been here! You won't die so easily!"

"The mysterious people who appeared in the imperial city these days are all my third brother's men, right? The defenses deployed tonight and the weapons that kill people without leaving any trace are all my third brother's, right?"

His eyes were red. "I have thought of this day a long time ago. I have sent people to search all over Daliang country in recent years. I really don't know where you have hidden such a team!"

Meng Jinghan said nothing, but raised the long sword in his hand: "I should have hated you, but I don't know why, but now I feel a little sorry for you."

"Is that position really worth making you so crazy? The throne is power, but more importantly, it is responsibility! Someone like you can't be a good emperor, a good brother, or even a good son!"

“What a pity!”

As he spoke, he swung his sword and the head fell to the ground.

Meng Jinghan didn't even glance at it, turned to Meng Jinyun and said, "Fourth brother, the rest is up to you."

Meng Jinyun stared at Meng Jinghan for a long time: "Third brother, this throne should be yours! Do you really want to leave? I..."

Meng Jinghan patted his shoulder vigorously and said, "You are too generous and kind but not courageous enough. You must learn well when you become the emperor in the future."

After saying that, he strode out and waved to Meng Jinyun: "Let's go! Haha, my life is better than yours!"

Watching Meng Jinghan disappear from sight, Meng Jinyun murmured, "He said that his life was better than mine? Where on earth did he go?"

Ye Xin was waiting in a small valley thirty miles from the imperial city.

"It's over?"

Meng Jinghan looked at the wormhole in front of him, then looked back at the imperial city not far away: "Let's go! Things here are over. Meng Liang will be taken care of by my fourth brother, no problem."

He put his arm around Ye Xin's waist, his eyes full of tenderness: "You promised me that you would have a baby when you go back. No! I want twins! Don't worry, I will work hard."

“Ahem!”

Xuelang, Li Tao, and Meng Liang had stood behind him without him noticing: "If the people of Daliang knew that the Third Prince was so shameless, what do you think they would do?"

Ye Xin smiled and said, "Go back, you guys!"

In the blink of an eye, they all disappeared from their original places and reappeared in space.

She took Meng Jinghan's hand and walked towards the wormhole: "We really can't come back this time."
