Chapter 177 Yun Xinglu died

"What?" Yun Hongxiao was shocked. Such a vicious thing appeared in the palace. How could it be tolerated.

"Yun Ransheng!" Yun Hongxiao shouted.

The second prince shrank forward and knelt down.

He had just made a contribution today, and he was beaten back to his original form in an instant.

"Father, I wanted to shoot Yun Xinglu, the traitor." Yun Ransheng's decadent excuse.

"Where did you get this snake venom?" Yun Hongxiao shouted angrily.

"Your son..., your son asked someone to catch it."

"Chen Jitang, take the thing off his arm for me." Yun Hongxiao rushed to the guards who had been guarding him.

Chen Jitang obeyed the order.

When he saw the exquisite sleeve arrow, he was also shocked.

The second prince was indeed very talented in designing these things.

The things were soon presented to Yun Hongxiao.

He looked back and forth between the sleeve arrow and Yun Ransheng several times.

This son is too ambitious!

"Tell me, why did you do this? Do you want to harm someone?" Yun Hongxiao asked coldly.

"Your Majesty, the prince has no other intentions. He just likes these things. He made them for his own fun." Seeing that the emperor was angry, Zheng He immediately knelt in front of Yun Hongxiao and tried to beg for mercy.

"You didn't get the drug Yun Xinglu gave you?" Yun Hongxiao looked at Zheng He's performance and knew what he didn't understand.

All actions today were kept secret, but the mother and son knew about it in advance and prepared weapons for themselves.

"Your Majesty..."

Zheng He was stunned. Yes, everyone else was so weak, but she could run so fast.

And Yun Ransheng could still shoot hidden arrows.

"Yun Ransheng, did you know in advance that Yun Xinglu was going to rebel today?" Yun Hongxiao looked at his second son again.

"Your Majesty, I was wrong. I just wanted to make a contribution." Yun Ransheng knew that this was difficult, and he kowtowed desperately on the ground.

"Good, very good. You knew about it but didn't report it, you hid weapons, and you used poison to shoot and kill your brothers. Although it was unintentional, if the Feng family hadn't taken action, your fourth brother would have died in your hands today." Yun Hongxiao was really angry.

"I just conferred you the throne, but there is no need to give it to you now. I will take back my order and remove your title of Xingguo. You should just be the second prince. Don't you want to leave the palace after the new year? Just reflect on your mistakes in your house for three months. The Royal Concubine Zheng will be demoted to Concubine Zheng.

My eldest prince is both virtuous and talented, knowledgeable and energetic, kind and caring for his younger brothers. He is a rare gentleman. I am very pleased and I will confer him the title of Crown Prince. Do you have any objections?"

Yun Hongxiao announced in the palace.

Everyone has not recovered from the shock just now, and the emperor has released such heavy news.

At this time, who dares to have an objection. Even Duke Zheng did not dare to do so. The mistake the second prince made just now was not a small one. He directly shot the fourth prince to death. It would not be too much to be demoted to a commoner for this crime.

Zheng He and his mother could accept the first half of the speech, but they were petrified by the second half.

They were the ones who made the eldest prince the crown prince. It was like

picking up a huge stone and smashing it on his feet.

At this time, Zheng He hated his son for taking the initiative.

Why did he do something hidden arrow? There are so many martial arts masters in the palace, why does he need to show off his skills?

Yun Ransheng was even more angry. He was obviously kind-hearted, so why did he make a mistake.

"Father, I didn't mean it. I just wanted to help catch the rebel." Yun Ransheng wanted to struggle a few more times.

"Humph, come on, take Concubine Zheng and her son away." Yun Hongxiao didn't want to see them mother and son at this time.

The two were taken away.

At this time, Ren Yucheng trotted in and knelt in front of the emperor.

"Your Majesty, the rebels have been captured. Of the 2,500 soldiers the rebels brought into the palace, 500 were killed, 800 were seriously injured, and the rest were all captured." Ren Yucheng was given an important task. He led the imperial guards to hide in various places in the palace and wiped out the rebels and rebels. He completed the task beautifully.

At this time, Feng Yuanhao also dragged Yun Xinglu, who was like rotten mud, in.

"Your Majesty, the rebel wanted to escape, but was stopped by the ministers. I don't know what medicine he took, his power increased greatly, but fortunately, he didn't last long. Now the effect of the medicine has worn off. He looks like a five-year-old child can kill him now."

Feng Yuanhao threw the man to the ground like a rag.

Then another person ran in. It was the commander of the palace guards, Gao Qiming, the fifth princess's uncle.

"Your Majesty, I have taken control of all the tunnels that the rebels dug to the palace. There are five in total, in the Yu Garden, the Yu Kitchen, the Cold Palace, the back wall of the Imperial Hospital, and one in the laundry department.

The exits were finally dug today, and then the rebels climbed out of the holes one by one. I followed your instructions and did not stop them. I waited until they all came out before guarding the entrances to prevent them from escaping through the holes."

Gao Qiming also reported the part he was responsible for.

"Well, it's well done. Okay, take those people and take them to the Ministry of Justice to lock them up." Yun Hongxiao pointed at the officials who had stood behind Yun Xinglu before.

After such a long time, he finally has the heart to take care of those people.

"Your Majesty, spare our lives, Your Majesty, spare our lives. We have no choice, please spare us this time." Those people started to panic now. They thought that the law was not punishable, but they didn't expect that the emperor would never let them go.

"Take him away." The noise made Yun Hongxiao's head hurt. If he had known this would happen,

why did he do it in the first place.

Yun Xinglu, who was lying on the ground, looked at Yun Hongxiao with red eyes.

Yun Hongxiao sighed. It is a fact that this boy did save his life. Otherwise, he would not trust him so much and adopt him as his son. But I think he probably did it on purpose, just to gain his trust. Emperors of all dynasties only adopted daughters, and never adopted sons. He is the first case, and it turned out that he raised a disaster. This was also a lesson for himself and future emperors. Yun Hongxiao had nothing to question, as everything was clear at a glance.

Those who were in his gang also stood behind him.

The Ministry of Justice will examine them one by one. Those who have not come forward will be examined in the subsequent trial process.

"Eunuch Yuan, give him a quick death." Yun Hongxiao felt so tired.

He was still worried about the fourth prince, and didn't know how he was doing now.

Eunuch Yuan quickly prepared a cup of poisoned wine.

Yun Xinglu had no power to resist at this time. Once the effect of the medicine wore off, he was like a soft worm without bones.

The victorious king defeats the bandits. Yun Xinglu knew that he would not survive.

And those clansmen and subordinates who followed him would not have a good end, but now he really could not do anything.

He was going to die, and he couldn't care so much.

"Don't blame me. This is your own fault. You don't want to be a good prince, but to become a traitor. Who knows whether what happened a hundred years ago is true or not? It's just your inflated ambition. Just go away and marry into an ordinary family in your next life." Yun Hongxiao said with a sigh.

He really cared about this child. Later, he found that there was something wrong with him, so he deliberately gave him more power. The result was just as he thought.

Yun Xinglu looked at this high and mighty man and recalled his own biological father.

His father died early, and died of illness when he was thirteen years old. Before he

died, he called him to the bedside alone, handed him the edict that had been kept for who knows how many years, and asked him to swear that he would work hard to fulfill the wish that his ancestors had not been able to fulfill.

He was very confused and scared at the time.

But when he received the will, his uncles helped him with all their might.

Because he was the direct descendant of their line, he had to shoulder the heavy responsibility.

In order to get close to the emperor, he practiced martial arts every day, just to stay by the emperor's side as a lifesaver one day and slowly improve his status. Only

with status can you have power and do more things, and military power is the first.

After nearly ten years of hard work, he finally achieved the concentration of power and was finally able to launch a palace coup, but it was still a failure, like a flash in the pan.

In fact, he has lived a very tiring life these years. In order to achieve that goal, he has been highly tense for a long time. He

also had to find a way to hide his ambitions.

Now that he is about to die, he can let go of everything.

"Father, thank you for all these years." When a man is about to die, his words are also good. He called out "Father" again.

Yun Xinglu took the initiative to drink the cup of poisoned wine, ending his short life.
