This murderous intent was so real that Li Jin also understood that his sister-in-law really wanted to kill him.
"No, don't come over here."
"Stop her, what are you doing?"
"I am the crown prince, I am the future crown prince, I order you to stop her."
However, the only answer she got was the dagger in Ruan Wenjun's hand, one dagger, one dagger, and another.
It is true that her son likes men, but he is still her son.
"Save the prince, save the prince quickly."
When they came to their senses, the people surrounding the mourning hall were about to take action, but if Kankan came, then these people would just be looking for death.
Xianxian's footsteps moved left and right, and every stop took a life.
The key is that her steps are extremely fast. There are no less than four afterimages staying in the field at the same time, and each afterimage extends to several movements.
Ruan Wenjun didn't let go until the blood of Prince Zhennan dyed the ground red.
"Bang~"
Just at this moment, the afterimage disappeared, and the sound of the dagger falling to the ground set off a chain reaction, and these people fell to the ground one after another.
No one had any wounds, but everyone had a dent in front of their body.
At this time, the voices of ministers were heard outside the door.
"Your Highness Bai Zhan..."
"Your servant Song Lian..."
"Your servant Luo Shicheng..."
"Seeking to see the Queen Mother!"
Sure enough, just as Li Jin expected, these old ministers came to plead for him.
Unfortunately, I’m too late.
"What are the three uncles doing here?"
Li Liuli didn't let anyone in, but walked out.
Hearing this, the three ministers looked at each other, and finally Song Lian spoke up, "Princess, we want to plead for the Prince of Zhennan."
"The royal family is empty-handed, with only the Prince of Zhennan left. If the Prince of Zhennan dies, the world will be in chaos."
"I beg the Queen Mother and the Princess to release the Prince of Zhennan for the sake of the common people."
A smile suddenly appeared on Li Liuli's cold face.
"If the three of you can bring the emperor's uncle back to life, my mother and I are willing to forgive the Prince of Zhennan once."
The three of them were stunned when they heard this. The King of Zhennan was dead? Suddenly, the three of them didn't know what to say.
My mood was really up and down that day. First, Prince Zhennan killed the new emperor, then Prince Zhennan was captured accidentally, and now Prince Zhennan is the only heir left, and he is dead.
What should we do in this world?
Not to mention the direct line, even the collateral line is all dead.
Is this going to be a time of great strife? Oh, there will be chaos, and the people will suffer.
Song Lian was unwilling to accept it, or rather, he said in disbelief: "Princess, can you let me go in and take a look?"
"Okay, please, three uncles."
The three of them felt even more depressed when they heard this. He showed them so frankly that it seemed that the Prince of Zhennan was already dead. We were too late.
Sure enough, as soon as they entered, the three saw the body of Prince Zhennan.
After taking another look at the woman standing nearby, who was either the empress, the queen mother, or the grand empress dowager, and then at the dagger on the ground, they knew who was responsible for the death of Prince Zhennan.
This woman is so miserable. Her husband and son died within just a few days, and she doesn’t know what to do in the future.
"Queen Mother, the country cannot be without a ruler for a day, do you have any ideas?"
…
Li Xiuzhu did not rush home. After asking someone to inform his family, he went to the palace.
Now that the Prince of Zhennan has taken action, it will surely affect the entire body and become extremely violent.
The troops are from the imperial palace, which is normal. The Prince of Zhennan can only bring dozens of soldiers with him to Beijing, and it is impossible for him to bring more than a hundred people.
Therefore, even if these people are the Prince of Zhennan's men, they can only be bribed royal guards.
If the Prince of Zhennan had not succeeded in his rebellion, then as the emperor's direct lineage, it would naturally be the Imperial Guards who would clean up the mess.
So Li Xiuzhu did not go through the main gate, but instead jumped over the wall into the palace.
His first stop was the mourning hall in Qiantai Palace, where he would find out whether all the officials were under control and whether something had happened to the crown prince.
If the dust has settled over there, he will go to the harem to see his women.
When Li Xiuzhu appeared in Qiantai Palace, martial law was already in place.
Just when he was hesitating about where to go first, Kanan came out.
"Her Majesty has ordered that the Prime Minister and the Duke of Anyang come to the throne to see her."
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
When Li Xiuzhu saw Kankan appear, he breathed a sigh of relief and came out from his hiding place without hiding.
"Your Majesty, I, Li Xiuzhu, request to see you."
Kanan was startled for a moment, then looked at the master who appeared and gave a sweet smile.
The master must have known that something happened in the palace and was worried about others.
What? You said you were worried about Master's Wife? Master's Wife, please move aside.
"My Lord, follow me."
Li Xiuzhu's sudden appearance stunned everyone. When did the Duke of Anyang come? Was he here just now?
Just when they were confused, Li Xiuzhu had already entered the mourning hall. As soon as he entered, he saw the room was in a mess.
There were corpses, bloodstains, and people who were at a loss and crying.
Of course, in addition to these, three ministers were also present.
Li Xiuzhu frowned, walked forward to take a look at his elder brother who had been placed on a bed, and sighed.
After all, my eldest brother was not able to sit firmly on the throne.
At this time, Ruan Wenjun said in a vague voice: "Xiuzhu, your eldest brother is also dead, and there is no one in the royal family who can inherit the throne."
"I have discussed with the ministers and would like to select one of the consorts to enter the ancestral temple to inherit the throne."
"I intend to let you inherit the throne. What do you think?"
Li Xiuzhu hesitated for a moment before saying, "In fact, the late emperor gave me two imperial edicts at that time."
"Because the Third Prince assassinated the Crown Prince at that time, the Crown Prince's life was unknown, so His Majesty said that if the Crown Prince is not dead, I should take out the red string imperial edict. If the Crown Prince is also dead, I should take out the black string imperial edict."
"Now that the eldest brother, the crown prince, has passed away, perhaps it is God's will. Why don't you three come back with me to the palace to see what the late emperor's decree means?"
At this moment, Ruan Wenjun looked at Li Xiuzhu in confusion, not understanding why Li Xiuzhu refused.
Is there anyone who doesn't like being an emperor? What if Li Kuo has other plans? What if this plan is even more disadvantageous to them? And if he becomes the emperor, then I...
She admitted that she was a little selfish.
However, Li Xiuzhu also has it.
If they moved to the palace, there would be too many restrictions, and it would definitely be inconvenient for Su Ru and the others to live in the palace, and it would no longer be convenient for him to go out.
So it’s good to be the Regent. Wouldn’t it be nice to sneak in and have some sex occasionally?
Even the women who were buried with the deceased could be protected openly.
The new emperor has not been born yet, so the palace is empty.
Moreover, the two emperors had to be buried together. After all, the national treasury could not afford such a huge outlay if they were buried separately in a short period of time.
Moreover, the construction of the mausoleum takes time and cannot be delayed.
If you are talking about burial, does that mean the imperial concubine should be buried with the emperor or with the prince?
This change was so sudden that all the concubines from yesterday... were lost!
