The night is getting colder and colder.
When Xuanyuan Yonghao reappeared in Chenghuan Palace, the smell of blood was strong.
Hundreds more corpses appeared at the entrance, where countless people had already died.
Inside the Chenghuan Palace, the eldest prince, disheveled and bound hand and foot, knelt on the ground.
As Xuanyuan Yonghao had predicted, His Majesty the Emperor, who was still breathing, was killed with a single blow.
When the eldest prince saw that the person who appeared was Xuanyuan Yonghao, he snorted coldly.
"I never expected to fall for your trick."
Xuanyuan Yonghao didn't speak; he raised his eyes and scanned the scene before him.
I don't know when, but the venomous snakes had already retreated.
There was no trace of it left in the house.
A short while later, the Southern Tang arrived, clasping their hands in a fist salute.
"Your Highness, the Second Prince attempted to rebel and has been executed on the spot."
These words were said less to His Highness and more to be meant for the Crown Prince.
After all, this idea, and all of these things, were all guided by his master.
Sure enough, when the eldest prince heard the news that the second prince had died, he was stunned.
He wasn't stupid after all, and he understood immediately.
He squinted, looking at Xuan Yuan Yonghao, gritting his teeth as he spoke each word clearly.
"You set this up!"
Hearing his voice filled with hatred, Xuan Yuan Yonghao glanced at him, too lazy to even utter a word.
His eyes were deep and unfathomable, and his lips were cool and aloof.
"Killed"
"yes"
The Southern Tang responded.
The eldest prince, who had been calm and composed, suddenly became anxious.
"Xuanyuan Yonghao! How dare you! You murdered your father and brother, do you think the people of the world would let you become the emperor? Dream on!!"
He was furious, but Xuanyuan Yonghao remained unfazed.
They couldn't even be bothered to reply.
He seemed to care nothing about the accusation of patricide and fratricide.
The Southern Tang general, wielding a long sword, approached step by step.
The eldest prince grew even more anxious, and he blurted out...
"Let me tell you! If I die, you won't live either! The poison within you will instantly devour you!"
The moment Gu poison was mentioned, Nan Tang's hand paused.
This is something that the Southern Tang Dynasty has always resented, and still does to this day.
The Southern Tang emperor couldn't help but turn around and look at the prince.
His Highness, however, was... lost in thought.
Xuanyuan Yonghao lowered his eyes, pondering.
My personal maid, relying on the protection of those snakes, goes out without thinking and dares to go anywhere. She's getting more and more foolish.
If we don't teach her to use her brain, what will happen if she gets into real danger in the future?
As he was thinking, he looked at Xuan Yuan Yonglin.
A glint of light flashed in his eyes.
They appear harmless, yet utter cruel words.
"Lock him up and announce to the public that he had failed in his patricide and rebellion and committed suicide on the spot."
The voice was indifferent, as if the person in front of him was just a stranger.
Southern Tang breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.
"Yes, Your Highness!"
After agreeing, Xuanyuan Yonghao walked out.
He returned to his bedchamber, where Su Yan was fast asleep and very peaceful.
She slept soundly until dawn, unaware that the bloody battles of the previous night had brought about a change of dynasty.
When she woke up, she found herself alone, and the revealing red dress she was wearing had already been changed.
She got out of bed, having rested, and the effects of yesterday's medicine had worn off.
Just as I walked up to the chair, Chunhua pushed the door open and entered.
He said with a smile
"Su Yan, are you awake?"
Su Yan blinked, then nodded.
Then Chunhua came in carrying the meal and placed it on the table.
"His Highness instructed me to watch you finish eating."
As it happened, she was also hungry.
Naturally, they obediently began to eat.
