Chapter 409 Chapter 408



Seeing that the Prime Minister's Mansion was doomed, he would be dead if caught.

Xiao Wenrou thought of how close the eldest prince Si Han was to her and how she had saved his life.

So before the soldiers came to surround the Prime Minister's Mansion, Xiao Wenrou used the props given by the system to successfully slip out and find Si Han hoping that he could save her.

The person who had been concerned about her not long ago remained silent after hearing her cry for help.

Xiao Wenrou has always been a selfish person, both in her previous life and in this life, but her IQ is not very high.

She felt unhappy when she saw that Si Han did not respond immediately after she asked for help.

She said that she had saved Si Han before and wanted to demand repayment for the favor.

Si Han, who is not a good person and has little conscience, had a sinister look in his eyes because of what Xiao Wenrou said, and the smile on the corner of his mouth deepened with a hint of sarcasm.

If they hadn't sent people to watch her secretly, they would have known that she had many secrets and coveted those things.

Si Han felt that maybe he didn’t need a living savior.

It was only after being reminded by an aide to Si Han that Xiao Wenrou realized the meaning of the sentence "Your Highness will not save useless people."

So under Si Han's explicit instruction, Xiao Wenrou pretended to take out a gun from her body and handed it to him reluctantly.

Each gun requires a large amount of luck in exchange. Although Prime Minister Xiao was in power during this period and Xiao Wenrou was surrounded by many lucky people, she secretly absorbed a lot of good luck.

But exchanging this gun also used up a lot of her luck. Xiao Wenrou's heroine halo also needs luck to maintain, which makes her heroine halo not so dazzling.

Xiao Wenrou looked at Si Han coldly, she was so angry that she vomited blood. If she had known earlier, she would not have saved him.

And with Si Han's ambition, how could he be sent away with just a gun?

In the end, he used both soft and hard tactics to force Xiao Wenrou to hand over five more pistols. After seeing her face become a little gloomy, Si Han thought that keeping this woman might still be useful.

Then he ordered people to create the illusion that Xiao Wenrou had been abducted and tortured beyond recognition, and had been floating in the river for three days and three nights before her house was searched and she was arrested.

While An Xin and his companions were rushing to the capital.

I heard that Emperor Sheng An was injured by an assassin who sneaked into the palace with a powerful hidden weapon. The imperial doctors were helpless and the emperor's life was in danger.

After Kong Xun, An Xin and their group arrived in Beijing, they came to the palace gate without even going home and asked to see Emperor Sheng An, but were stopped by the guards.

Not to mention An Xin taking out the golden dragon token, even Kong Xun, who was worried about Emperor Sheng An's body and took out the prince's treasure token that symbolized his identity as the prince, was ignored by the guards guarding the palace gate.

He only said that he had obeyed orders not to let anyone enter the palace to disturb the injured emperor, and he no longer paid any attention to Kong Xun, An Xin and the others.

Everyone looked at each other, and looked at the guards guarding the gate with anger and helplessness.

An Xin looked at the guards guarding the palace gate with an indecipherable expression, and said faintly: "Someone must have given instructions in advance. These guards of the palace gate are probably some people who knew that we came back and stationed them here to block us."

"Since some people knew that we were back and deliberately arranged these people to stop us, what was his purpose?" Li Ziyu's cold eyes darkened, he glanced at Kong Xun with a slight realization, and asked.

Leng Xiangbai, Zhu Shijing, Jiang Zhou, An Rui, Liu Boxing...they all turned their eyes to their teacher.

"Why are you looking at me?" An Xin sighed and pointed out, "Someone just wants to get the throne legitimately."

“I am currently in the palace, trying to find a way to wake the emperor up briefly so he can write an imperial edict.

This way, even if you, who hold the crown prince's decree and the imperial edict, come back, you won't be able to shake his position."

Kong Xun's heart skipped a beat. Only then did he realize how cruel the fight for the throne among the princes was.

He is even capable of killing his brothers and father.

If he still didn't understand at this point that Emperor Sheng An was assassinated by the eldest prince Si Han, the only one left in the capital, then he would be as stupid as a pig.

However, if An Xin knew what he was thinking, he would probably say that whether they were half-brothers in the royal family depended on fate. Maybe, possibly, or probably not, so there was no question of killing his brother or his father.

At this time, the atmosphere in the entire palace was gloomy and depressing.

Outside Emperor Sheng'an's bedroom, ministers were kneeling in rows, and were prevented by guards from entering to visit the emperor.

Gongsun Hong and Shan Jinzhe, who had just been reinstated by Emperor Sheng'an, as well as Chi Yuanshou of the Hanlin Academy and some royalist officials, looked at each other with worried expressions.

On the other hand, those officials who had already defected to the eldest prince Si Han had smug looks on their faces and excitement in their eyes.

They felt that their choice was a sure win this time.

Because Emperor Sheng'an was not lustful and there were not many concubines in the harem, Queen Jiang, who died young, gave birth to a legitimate prince.

I heard that he was sent to Huangjue Temple to pray for the country and has not been brought back to the palace yet.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

The third prince was sent by the emperor to guard the imperial mausoleum not long ago, and now only the eldest prince is left.

If the throne is not passed to him, who else could it be?

At this moment in the emperor's bedroom, Si Han's face looked terribly gloomy.

After Emperor Sheng An was awakened from his coma by an evil doctor brought in by Si Han, who forcibly used silver needles, he heard the several old ministers who came in with him.

He tactfully advised himself to write the decree of succession while he was still conscious, appointing the eldest prince Si Han as the crown prince of Daqian.

In this way, if something really happens to him as the emperor, Si Han can ascend to the throne legitimately, and this can also prevent unrest in the court due to the change of the throne.

In principle, there is nothing wrong with saying this, but it doesn't mean that Si Han is the child of a woman he doesn't like.

Even if Si Han doesn't look like him or his dead mother at all, it is impossible that Emperor Sheng An, who is suspicious and wise by nature, doesn't have any doubts at all.

Moreover, he believed that even if he died, Kong Xun would have the Crown Prince Order he gave him and the Imperial Edict of Succession that he asked An Xin to deliver.

And there is An Xin, a teacher who is both talented in literature and martial arts and has great wisdom and strategy. Even if that lazy guy doesn't want to be an official, she will still do it for herself and her students.

The wily and experienced Emperor Sheng An was also certain that An Xin would definitely push Kong Xun, who was called Si Ye on the Royal Jade Butterfly, onto the throne.

Several old ministers who were in favor of the eldest prince saw that their persuasion to Emperor Sheng An for a long time seemed to be in vain, so they all turned their eyes to Si Han, who looked unhappy.

Si Han looked sinister at Emperor Sheng An, who was indifferent to life and death, and was at a loss for a moment.

He said coldly: "Where is the imperial seal? If you don't tell me, don't blame me for being rude."

After asking this question, Si Han had already given up. Emperor Sheng An would write the edict of succession for him personally.

Thinking of finding out where he had hidden the imperial seal, at most he had someone forge an imperial edict to pass on the throne.

Anyway, those people in the capital who were unwilling to submit to him were now under his control by him, using their families as threats.

Even if it is fake, he can make it real.
