Chapter 420 Bloodstained Hall of Supreme Harmony

Helian Kai narrowed his sinister eyes and stared at Emperor Mingcheng for a long while before he said, "I heard that you were seriously ill, so I came here in a hurry to see you off in person. But it seems that is not the case now."

Why would he rush into the palace in such a hurry? He wanted to kill his enemy with his own hands and see him die in front of him. If he conquered the world but died of illness, how could he relieve his hatred? Emperor Mingcheng said indifferently: "I didn't expect it was really you."

"You didn't expect that someone who should have died long ago would stand in front of you one day and force you into such a situation. I wonder if you regret not checking more carefully back then." Helian Kai was able to escape death successfully, not because Emperor Mingcheng was negligent, but because he and Yan Jiangnan had a detailed enough plan. So detailed that the substitute who was raised from childhood had to make the smallest details of his body consistent with his.

The powerful and wealthy will keep a substitute, and they won’t just have one.

They would raise the surrogate from a young age, choosing children who look like themselves, and sometimes even choosing from among their own clan members. Whenever the master was injured, the surrogate would also be injured in the same way. They would eat and live in the master's palace, and would not show themselves to others unless necessary.

Emperor Mingcheng knew that the other party had a substitute.

He killed several stand-ins for this purpose, but he didn't expect that one of them would be so similar to the other.

Then the fight started again.

The situation inside the palace was quite unexpected. A large number of guards rushed out of the side hall, pointing their bows and arrows at Helian Kai and others. In addition, the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard led his men to protect Emperor Mingcheng.

This was obviously prepared in advance.

Helian Kai sneered, "You're using the same trick again, trying to lure me into a trap? I told you, how did you win so smoothly along the way? Don't tell me that your heart is as vicious as it was back then."

Emperor Mingcheng stood up and looked directly at Helian Kai, "How could I let you appear here if not for this?"

"Hahaha, do you think you won?" Helian Kai showed no fear at all.

Emperor Mingcheng said: "As long as we kill you, this war will end."

"You are wrong. It is not the last moment yet. It is still unknown who will win or lose." How could Helian Kai not have a countermeasure? He turned around and shouted, "Bring the person up to me!"

Emperor Mingcheng couldn't help but frown.

I saw a group of people being pushed out by the rebels. There were men and women, adults and children. Without exception, they were all dressed in gorgeous clothes, living a life of luxury, and all had fear on their faces.

Leading the group was the Crown Prince, who was supported by someone. Prince Shou and his family were all present. The only person not there was the Emperor's eldest grandson, Helian Mian.

Because of the battle at the East Gate, Helian Mian went there, but happened to be away from the palace.

Helian Kai laughed wantonly, "You didn't expect that."

When they broke into the palace, the rebels secretly split into several groups. The largest group was Helian Kai, who led his men to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, while the others went to capture Emperor Mingcheng's son and concubines.

"Thanks to you for summoning them into the palace in advance, it became much easier for us to find people." Helian Kai said sarcastically.

Emperor Mingcheng's eyes were red with anger. "Impossible! Who betrayed me?"

He swept his eyes fiercely over everyone present.

The purpose of summoning Prince Shou, Prince Lu and others into the palace in advance was to ensure their safety. Their hiding place should not be known to others, but they were caught so quickly. There must be someone who betrayed them.

"When you killed my wife and children, did you ever think that one day, the blame would fall on you?"

Helian Kai put his sword on the prince's neck.

The prince was nearly forty years old, and his face was sick and pale. If he hadn't experienced this, he would probably not live long. But when encountering this kind of thing, he was the calmest one.

Emperor Mingcheng's face was throbbing with veins. "What do you want?"

"What should I do? There are so many things I want to do. Come on, kneel down and beg me first." Helian Kai suddenly wanted to see Emperor Mingcheng kneel down.

The prince suddenly grabbed the sword with one hand.

Blood flowed from his fingers. He looked at his father who was in the highest position, his eyes were unexpectedly calm, "Father, you don't have to bow your head for your son. If you have the heart, avenge your son."

The winner never gives the loser a chance to turn things around. Just like Emperor Ming Cheng did back then, he did not give the other party any chance to survive.

It was just that his skills were not good enough, so he escaped.

The prince suddenly took the initiative to commit suicide. A line of blood appeared on his neck and blood continued to flow out. Then he fell sideways to the ground.

Many people were shocked by this scene.

Even Helian Kai did not expect that the prince would seek death so decisively. A flash of pity passed through his eyes, and at the same time he was extremely angry. He looked up at Emperor Mingcheng angrily. Unexpectedly, when Emperor Mingcheng saw this scene, he spat out a mouthful of blood in anger.

Jixiang, who was standing by, hurried to support the man.

Helian Kai, who was originally in a bad mood, suddenly laughed, "Hahaha, Helian Ce! You have a good son who would rather die than drag you down. Hahaha, such a filial child was ruined just because of your ridiculous fear. I especially want to ask you, do you regret it?"

Emperor Mingcheng raised his finger and pointed at Helian Kai, "You, you are talking nonsense!"

At this time, it was not just the two people who were talking.

Everyone in the temple was shocked.

The implication of this statement is too horrifying. In the past, the crown prince was poisoned and injured. It was actually Emperor Mingcheng who caused it?

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"Your Highness! Your Highness..."

The Crown Princess threw herself before the Crown Prince in tears.

The prince's eyes fell on her, his lips opening and closing, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't. He was the only one who didn't show any shock or disbelief when he heard what Helian Kai said.

Unexpectedly calm.

This was obviously known a long time ago.

In his dying moments, he looked at the Crown Princess with attachment and guilt, and finally he slowly closed his eyes.

The Crown Princess was heartbroken. She quickly pulled out her hairpin, stabbed herself in the heart, and fell on the Crown Prince.

It's not over yet.

Helian Kai used Prince Shou and Prince Lu to threaten Emperor Mingcheng again, "Your brother committed suicide, do you two want to follow in his footsteps? To be honest, you two are living a cowardly life, without any blood of the men of our Helian family."

Prince Shou and Prince Lu bowed their heads.

It’s not that they don’t want to stand out, but whenever they do, problems will arise. First look at the ending of the prince, and then look at the example of Prince Lu’s disability.

Suddenly, Prince Shou stood up and slammed his body against the pillar in the hall. He was going to die no matter what, so he might as well choose to die in a dignified way.

Helian Kai was surprised again, and looked up at Emperor Mingcheng again, "He is about to die, and I finally see some bloodiness in him. It's really rare."

Emperor Mingcheng tried hard not to faint, but he couldn't help shaking and said, "Kill! Kill them for me!"

Suddenly, Emperor Mingcheng gave an order, pointed angrily at Helian Kai, and shouted loudly: "I want him dead! I want him dead! At any cost! ... I want him dead!"

The imperial guards and royal guards in the palace took action, especially the archers, whose arrows shot at Helian Kai almost at the same time.

The rebel soldiers raised their shields in front of Helian Kai, quickly blocked the long arrows, and then retreated through the door of the hall.

When it comes to cruelty, it belongs to Emperor Cheng of Ming Dynasty.

The enemy still had a group of hostages in their hands. If they shot arrows at this time, at least half of them would die. However, Emperor Ming Cheng did it anyway and did not accept Helian's threat at all.
