Chapter 226 If this isn’t rebellion, what is it?
When the other ministers saw that King Zhan didn't say anything, they thought they had guessed it right, and they kept talking more and more.
This is exactly the effect the Fourth Prince wants. As long as the War King loses the support of the ministers, let's see what he can do.
Why is this guy so weird now? So he must be pinned to death.
Otherwise, when he attacks back, he will definitely be a dog that bites people.
Dongfang Chen, (You are the dog, your whole family are dogs, worse than animals, worse than pigs and dogs)
The Fourth Prince raised his hand to suppress it. Combined with his outfit today, he really looked a bit like a superior.
But... no matter how much he pretends to be someone real, he still doesn't live up to the title, and it seems no one will recognize his identity.
He doesn't have an imperial edict to pass on the throne, and he's not the crown prince. Isn't this a misdemeanor? Isn't this rebellion?
"Everyone, please look at what this is?" The fourth prince took out a bright yellow object, and everyone saw that it was an imperial edict.
The Fourth Prince glanced at the expressions of those present and was very dissatisfied.
Why didn't these people kneel down to him? Did they look down on him? Didn't they see the bed and the imperial edict in his hands?
The Fourth Prince glared at the eunuch, who was trembling with fear. Others didn't know how the imperial edict of succession came about, but he saw it with his own eyes.
The fourth prince wrote the imperial edict himself and took the emperor's hand to seal it with the imperial seal.
Everyone around the emperor had been replaced, so it was useless for him to resist.
The eunuch took the imperial edict tremblingly and began to read it.
"By the Will of Heaven, the Emperor decrees this.
Today, there is the fourth prince, Dongfang An, who is diligent and docile, peaceful and pure, of a gentle nature, well-behaved, a good wife and a noble character, and is respected by nine attendants. His name is Hui.
From this day forward, I pass the throne to the Fourth Prince. You all have aided the new Emperor in ascending the throne. Anyone who dares to resist will be killed without mercy.
I hereby order you."
Some people immediately fell to their knees when they heard the eunuch reading the imperial edict.
But some people were indifferent, such as those headed by the Grand Tutor.
There were also people headed by the War King, all of them crossed their arms and watched the show.
After all, they won't act rashly without the master's order.
The Fourth Prince thought that after the eunuch finished reading the imperial edict, everyone would kneel down and shout "Long live the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor."
However... these people actually dared to disobey the imperial edict and even dared to slap him in the face.
Very good, very good, very good. If it is still like this, then he will start with someone else to make an example of him.
Who should I choose? I'd choose the Grand Tutor.
The next one is the King of War. No matter whether you are the son-in-law of Beiyan or the biological son of Princess Liuli, these identities will only make you die faster.
If you were an ordinary person, you might be able to live longer.
Since you are such an eyesore, you'd better die.
The Fourth Prince swung his sleeves and said, "Master Taifu, as a veteran of three dynasties in Longyuan State, you refused to kneel when you saw the imperial edict. Are you preparing to rebel?
Your men have been lying in ambush outside, waiting to rush in at your command.
Then you might as well let them rush in now, otherwise this prince will attack you."
"As the Grand Tutor, you are not grateful, and you don't know how to serve the country. You even secretly made weapons, made dragon robes, and mined minerals. Each of these things is enough to kill you. You can't die anymore.
Tell us what you want to do. You are old and will soon be in the coffin.
You won't follow others and rebel, will you? You will rebel and become emperor yourself."
"Tsk tsk, then you have to live a few more years, don't die before you even get that position.
This position is indeed quite attractive, but it belongs to our Dongfang family, not your Song family.
You made your daughter the queen, don't think I don't know what your intention is."
"You simply want her to give birth to a prince, and then you can corrupt the emperor and control the princes.
But your wishful thinking has failed, and your good daughter has her own big ambitions.
She is preparing to become the Queen Mother herself and won't listen to you, her father. What are you going to do?"
"ah???"
"Hahaha.
"I've been hunting hawks for years, and now I've been pecked in the eye by an eagle. How do you feel?"
When Taifu Song saw the Fourth Prince's smug look, he was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.
"Fourth Prince, where did you get this imperial edict? It's fake, fake, absolutely fake.
Unless the emperor himself says that this imperial edict is true, I will acknowledge it.
Otherwise, this is an imperial decree you obtained by forcing the emperor to abdicate, and I will not acknowledge it."
"Heh, Master Song, why are you so funny? You're going backwards as you get older.
Even the imperial seal has been affixed, yet you actually suspect it's fake. You're doubting your father."
“Father, look at your good ministers, they don’t believe you at all.
Tell me how frustrated your life is, and how your eldest son is against you.
The ministers are also against you, is it because you are too nice to them?"
"Don't worry, when I take over this position, I will definitely not let them be so rampant.
Anyone who dares to go against me, I will make his whole family suffer and then send him to exile in the frontier.
War King, don't you think this is true?"
Dongfang Chen didn't even look at the other party, and gave him a look, saying that such a jumping clown was not worthy of it.
Let you jump around for a while first, after all, it feels good to get slapped in the face.
The people that the Fourth Prince had ambushed outside had already been quietly eliminated by the secret guards.
The Fourth Prince hasn't received any news yet. Such a person is arrogant.
What great things could he accomplish? If he were to take this position, wouldn't the people of the world be devastated and suffer?
He would not hand over the country to such a person, even though he was angry with his father, and then with his mother.
But one thing is for sure, as the princess said, as long as the family is there, the country is there, and as long as the country is there, the family is there.
No matter what, our own country is the best, so we will not allow outsiders or people with ulterior motives to interfere in this country.
"Zhan Wang, are you deaf? Can't you hear me talking to you?
Don't you have any idea of the situation you're in now? Just one word from this prince and you'll instantly become a rebel, a death beyond compare.
Even now, you still don't know how to ask for help. How can you be so stubborn and mean? You're like a stone in a toilet."
"Of course, this prince has plenty of ways to deal with you. All I have to do is capture the Crown Princess Liuli and that little bitch Nangong Xue.
Why don't you surrender? If you don't surrender, this prince will kill them all in front of you.
Let the world see how cold-blooded and ruthless you, the War King, are."
Dongfang Chen crushed the teacup in his hand and it immediately turned into powder.
"Dongfang An, how do you want to die? I didn't punish you, do you think I don't have a temper?
The people you sent out last night didn't come back. Don't you know that they have already reported to the underworld?
Of course, the next one is you. People like you deserve to die, and you still want to get your hands on the throne. You don't deserve it."
At this time, Concubine Wen walked in, wearing a phoenix robe that only the queen wore.
The others narrowed their eyes when they saw this scene. It seemed that today's exciting shows were one after another.
It seems that everyone is ready, but I don’t know who will be the final winner.
At present, it seems that the King of War, the Grand Tutor, the Fourth Prince, and the Fifth Prince all have hope.
"Zhan Wang, if my son is not worthy, who is? Are you worthy? Whoever has the ability will be able to rule the world.
My son has the ability, so why can't he take that position? Who said my son can't take that position?
Stand up, all of you, stand up! I want to see who is not afraid of death."
The War King sneered, "He's such a idiot, but he still has abilities. You're not talking about the people he keeps outside, are you?
If he has the ability, then everyone in the world has the ability."
"You...you, how did you know? You were spying on me."
"You really know how to flatter yourself. I don't have the time to monitor you.
It's just that my people happened to pass by, happened to run into you, happened to know the truth, and happened to know it was you."
Cough cough.
The Minister of Justice, the Grand Secretary, the Minister of Justice, and the Left Prime Minister could not help coughing when they heard what the King of War said.
The War King is trying to piss people off to death. How come there are so many of them? Why can't others touch them? Why can't they touch them?
They now feel that anyone who goes against the War King will be killed by him or angered to death by him.
Didn’t you see that the Fourth Prince was rolling his eyes in anger?
The Fourth Prince quickly calmed himself down and said, "Someone, come here."
But no one came in.
"Are all the people outside dead? This prince is calling you, why don't you come in?"
At this time, Nangong Xue kicked the door open and threw the Fourth Prince's men in.
"Fourth Prince, are you calling them? I'm sorry, they are now corpses. If you need them, I will return them to you.
Your men are so weak and useless, yet you still treat them like treasures."
"This piece of trash is serving as my servant, and I despise it.
Oh, you are so happy and confident about picking up other people's unwanted garbage.
Don't you feel embarrassed at all? How can you be so shameless? I want to interview you.
Tell me about it, I want to hear it. Anyway, this princess has nothing else to do right now and has plenty of time."
"You're going to report to Hades anyway, so if I don't explain it to you clearly, you'll regret it for the rest of your life.
Look how much I care about you, there's no need to thank you, this princess is beautiful and kind, this is what I should do."
You Meng brought a chair to Nangong Xue, and Nangong Xue sat down on the chair with her legs crossed.
How does this look like a pregnant woman?
Cough cough.
Well, here comes someone even more ruthless. Let’s listen to what the War King can say. Even if he dies, he might crawl out of his coffin because he will die with his eyes open.
Concubine Wen pointed at Nangong Xue's nose and cursed.
"Princess Zhan, you, a mere woman, actually dare to come to the court and insult this noble concubine's prince.
He is so unruly and ill-mannered, he is indeed born of a mother but not raised by her."
Pa pa.
Nangong Xue slapped Concubine Wen twice in the air before the others could react to what was happening.
"Your mouth stinks, did you eat shit and not brush your teeth? This princess wouldn't mind washing them for you.
You are not a woman, you have the right to come to the court and act wildly, why can't this princess come?"
"Which law stipulates that this princess cannot come? Please tell me when the time comes.
The emperor must be blind for someone like you to be a royal concubine.
Even this princess despises you for being a maid. Not only are you uneducated, but you are also ugly and incompetent. You can't even teach your son."
"If I were you, I would have smashed myself into a block of tofu long ago. I don't even have the face to live. What's the point of living? Living is a waste of air, and dying is a waste of land.
If you haven't found the problem, you should hide in your shell. It's you who should come out and be scolded."
"I've heard of people picking up money, but I've never heard of people picking up insults. Concubine Wen, you're the first one.
And next time you point that finger at me, I will definitely chop it off."
"You...you, you are so presumptuous! How dare you treat me like this? Aren't you afraid that I will punish you?"
Dongfang Chen slapped him twice in the same way.
Concubine Wen's face was covered with finger marks, and they were very symmetrical on both sides.
"How dare you speak to my princess like that? Are you tired of living, or are you anxious to report to the King of Hell right now?
I can't bear to speak loudly, how dare you be so mean to her? Who gave you the guts?
Did you ask for courage from the heavens, or did you forget to take your medicine when you left home this morning, or did you take the wrong medicine?
"Um????"
Dongfang Chen's aura was so terrifying that Concubine Wen collapsed in her chair in fear.
After all, this man is really cruel. He beats people up or kills people at will.
There is no mercy or reason to talk about.
The Fourth Prince stiffened his neck and said, "Prince Zhan, how dare you kill all of my men?"
Dongfang Chen: "I told you, you idiot, I've already killed someone, and you still ask me if I dare.
Is stupidity hereditary? Concubine Wen was stupid, and she gave birth to a fool like you.
"Well, I can still understand you. After all, I don't argue with fools."
Everyone else forgot about the battle in front of them and listened to these people bickering. They felt they had never felt so comfortable before.
After all, what I dared not say was said by others, and seeing others suffer a loss, I felt satisfied in my heart.
People are like this. If someone else takes the lead in doing something they dare not do, they can achieve their goals.
Why not do it if you can enjoy the show?
Isn't that what's happening right before your eyes? A smart person can tell at a glance that the King has the best chance of winning this round.
After all, some people got inside information that the War King had a very powerful weapon in his hands.
It can take someone's life in the blink of an eye. No matter how powerful the Fourth Prince is, how can he compete with such a weapon?
When the Fourth Prince saw that his men had been killed, he had no choice but to cut the Gordian knot.
"Prince Zhan, this prince already has the imperial edict to pass on the throne, yet you are refusing to obey. Are you planning a rebellion?
You want to be a traitor and be laughed at by the world."
Dongfang Chen took out his sword and pointed it at the Fourth Prince, "Don't take out your broken imperial edict.
Don't say it's fake. Do I need to tell you in front of everyone how it came about?
Even if he is real, what does it have to do with me? If you have the ability, just try to sit in that position."
"It depends on whether you can hold your position firmly. Ambition is a good thing, but being too ambitious may not allow you to accomplish everything in one go.
I say you are a fool, but you still refuse to admit it. Now that all your people have been taken care of by my people, you should know that your situation is hopeless.
Instead of thinking about how to protect yourself, you're still threatening me. With your intelligence, how can I be related to you by blood?"
“It really sullies this bloodline, and this king particularly despises it.
Look at your appearance. With a crooked mouth, slanted eyes, and small eyes, you can't tell at a glance that you are a normal person."
"puff."
The Fourth Prince was so angry at the King of War that he spat out blood.
He is so handsome, but people say he has a crooked mouth, squinting eyes, small eyes, and is abnormal.
This person is really telling lies with his eyes open and his mouth is so poisonous.
I'm so angry. I'm so angry at him.
