"His Majesty has passed away, and I will ascend the throne and become emperor. Why don't you kneel down?!"
The eldest princess's words were majestic, but everyone was still unable to come back to their senses for a long time. They could see the state of Emperor Gan, so they could fully understand the first half of the sentence, but what did the second half mean?
They couldn't understand at all. With the Crown Prince present, even the other princes were here. How could it be the eldest princess' turn to be crowned emperor? Or empress?
"Aunt, you can't joke at this time. Your nephew is still here." The prince smiled bitterly, as if he was looking at an ignorant elder.
Just now, Emperor Gan called everyone around but did not call the Crown Prince in. The Crown Prince already had a very bad premonition in his heart. Now that the eldest princess had done this, he was even more confused.
Not to mention that in this situation, if the crown prince is deposed, it will cause turmoil in the country. Even if the crown prince really wants to be deposed, there are still three princes present, and none of these princes will be chosen.
Instead, he chose the eldest princess to become emperor. What an absurd and ridiculous thing it was.
"Do you think I'm joking with you? General Meng, just capture this rude guy for me!" The eldest princess ignored the prince in the first half of the sentence, but when she saw Meng Qi leading the team back, she directly gave orders to Meng Qi.
Even the way he referred to himself was changed to "I" instead of "Ben Gong".
"Aunt, do you really want to be emperor? Don't forget, my nephews are still alive." Long Musi had a serious look on his face, but there was no politeness in his words.
He could compete with the prince for this position, or he could fight openly or secretly with Xiaoliu, but it was ridiculous to think about competing with a woman, who was his elder, for this position.
"In that case, let's kill them all." The eldest princess did not back down at all, but instead displayed her cold-blooded approach.
It's just the royal bloodline. Even if all the princes present are dead, there are still other bloodlines. So she, Long Qingyi, can afford to gamble and kill.
"What a joke! How could a woman become an emperor in this world? The princess is so self-deceptive. It's possible that the sudden announcement of the bad news by His Majesty was the work of the princess." Lord Liu angrily scolded from the side.
He was a loyal royalist and had always been loyal to the emperor, but that didn't mean he was a fool who knew nothing.
The sudden death of Emperor Gan was already a suspicious matter, not to mention that the eldest princess was about to ascend the throne and become emperor just after his majesty passed away.
This is simply a naked display of one's ambitions, without any concealment at all.
Lord Liu's angry rebuke was like a signal, which directly attracted the other ministers. For a moment, the ministers were infuriated and quoted various classics to refute the eldest princess's words, and even ridiculed the eldest princess for her wishful thinking.
"General Meng, what are you waiting for? Don't you want to obey my orders?" The eldest princess took out the imperial edict and threw it at Meng Qi.
Monk subconsciously caught the imperial edict that was about to fall, opened it, and looked at it. His eyes were full of shock, but he still knelt on the ground and saluted the princess:
"I greet your majesty."
"What?" × n
Monkie's sudden salute, coupled with his previous words, shocked everyone to the point of being speechless.
You know, Monk has always been loyal to the emperor. In other words, Monk is loyal to whoever is the monarch of the Dagan Empire.
Now, Monchi's actions are equivalent to implicitly acknowledging the eldest princess's status and position, and further confirming the authenticity of the imperial edict just now.
"Impossible, it's you! You must have forged the imperial edict. Monkie has been colluding with you all!" The prince roared with madness on his face, "Speak up, refute! Could it be that you all agree to such a ridiculous thing?"
"Prince, you'd better not act like this. Instead of acting crazy here, why not join forces to kill our good aunt." Long Musi's face returned to calmness, but the murderous intent in his words did not diminish in the slightest.
As he spoke, he clapped his hands. In an instant, more than two hundred palace maids rushed into the Qianqing Palace. Each palace maid was holding an Emei spear. As soon as they appeared, they launched a surprise attack and killed half of the guards.
Then they surrounded the remaining guards. Although they were scattered at large intervals, the aura of each palace maid was as if they had crawled out from a pile of dead bodies, which instantly suppressed the aura of the guards.
"General Meng, for Aze's sake, I will give you a chance to choose again. Do you want to follow this crazy woman in a treasonous way, or support the prince to ascend the throne?" Long Musi looked like he had everything under control, his eyes fixed on Meng Qi.
Monchi is a rare talent. If he can be recruited, it will be a great help. However, Long Musi also has his own thoughts.
Now is the time for many princes to unite against the enemy. He cannot clearly state whether they support him or the princes. After all, it is better for the princes to fight for the throne than for a woman to become emperor.
When Monkie heard Long Mus mention Xu Tianze, he turned to look at Xu Tianze. Seeing Xu Tianze looking at him calmly, without sadness or joy, he made his own decision in his heart.
"I, Monkie, have always kept my promises. Since I have said that I will be loyal to the emperor, then no matter whether they are men or women, as long as they are the emperor, I, Monkie, will follow them until death." After Monkie finished speaking, he led the remaining guards directly to the side of the eldest princess.
When the princess saw Monk standing beside her, she laughed so hard that her body shook. Then she raised her eyebrows and looked at Xu Tianze, and quickly turned her gaze to Long Musi.
"My dear nephew, you are not the only one who has such means." The eldest princess stretched out her finger and pointed, and then she heard the sound of armor colliding outside the Palace of Heavenly Purity.
Suddenly, countless arrows were shot, and each arrow accurately killed a palace maid. In a moment, all the palace maids called by Long Muse were shot to death.
Those ministers who had just refuted and ridiculed the princess with righteous words, hid behind the pillars or sat on the ground in a daze, no longer having the powerful and resolute look they had just now.
"Why don't you hide?" The eldest princess frowned when she saw Xu Tianze and the virtuous king, the only ones standing quietly in the room.
Even the Sixth Prince, who was a master of martial arts, had just found a shelter to prevent any accidents. However, Xu Tianze's physical condition had long been deteriorating, and he shouldn't have been so calm.
Just now, when the virtuous king wanted to pull Xu Tianze to hide together, Xu Tianze stopped him and instead stood quietly beside him.
"If Auntie really wanted Ze'er's life, she would have had countless opportunities before. She wouldn't have had to wait until now." Xu Tianze had a smile on his face and was not at all scared by the rain of arrows.
