Li Yuanfu curled his lips and sneered, "Father, even if you want to scold me, you won't have the chance. The entire palace is now under the control of this son."
"You rebellious son... cough cough... cough cough..."
Before the old emperor could finish his words, he spat out another mouthful of blood, staining the pillowcase red.
Seeing this, Li Yuanfu couldn't help but shook his head, "Tsk tsk tsk... Father, don't get too excited. I know you care about the court, but most of the ministers in the court now support me. No matter how much you oppose, you can't change this fact! Just give up the throne in peace, hahaha..."
Hearing Li Yuanfu's words, the old emperor was so angry that he almost fainted.
"Evil...Evil..."
He kept repeating these two words, and was so angry that he couldn't even speak clearly.
Li Yuanfu was unmoved. He walked forward with the abdication edict in his hand, looking down at the old emperor with an indifferent expression, "Father, please sign this abdication edict immediately. Don't wait for me to do it myself!"
The old emperor's eyes were almost emitting sparks, "You, you... you rebellious son, cough cough cough... cough cough cough... I will not let you go even if I become a ghost!"
As he spoke, he coughed hard, but he was unable to stop the fishy-sweet taste from rushing into his throat. Instead, the coughing became heavier.
Seeing this, Li Yuanfu remained unmoved and sneered, "Become a ghost? Father, before you become a ghost, you'd better think carefully about whether you are willing to hand over this country to me, or would you rather give up your life than abdicate and let others take over?"
The old emperor was so angry that he started coughing violently again.
"Cough cough cough... cough cough..."
Li Yuanfu lost his patience upon seeing this. "Since your father is not feeling well, I will come and help him."
After saying that, he grabbed the old emperor's hand and cut it with a dagger. Bright red blood instantly oozed out of his thumb.
Then he grabbed the old emperor's hand and pressed it on the abdication edict.
"Let me go... cough cough cough..."
"Father, I am doing this for the sake of our Li family. Please bear with me for a while. You don't want the Li family to perish, do you?"
Just as the old emperor's hand was about to fall on the abdication edict, a flying knife suddenly shot out and pierced Li Yuanfu's shoulder. He felt pain and subconsciously let go of his hand.
The old emperor took advantage of the situation to break free from his hand and fell to the side.
Li Yuanfu covered his wound and looked at the direction where the flying knife came from with gritted teeth, "Who? Come out!"
"I am late in coming to your rescue, Your Majesty, and I beg your forgiveness!"
Mo Sichen's cold voice suddenly rang out in the empty inner hall, and then a group of people rushed into the inner room in a mighty manner.
Looking at the person who broke in, Li Yuanfu was stunned.
"Why are you here suddenly?"
Shouldn't Mo Sichen be in Lingnan, thousands of miles away, right now?
Moreover, he also sent people to keep an eye on Mo Sichen. How could he appear here at this time?
What is going on?
Mo Sichen glanced at the old emperor lying on the ground, his eyebrows and eyes full of mockery, "The Fourth Prince is still so cruel and ruthless. He actually killed the emperor and seized the throne when his father was seriously ill!"
"snort!"
Li Yuanfu suddenly snorted coldly, "This matter has nothing to do with you. I advise you not to meddle in other people's business!"
"I am a minister of Dayan, and protecting the emperor is my duty!"
Mo Sichen spoke indifferently, his tone calm, but his eyes were so sharp that people couldn't help but shiver.
Li Yuanfu's back stiffened when he looked at him.
At this moment, the old emperor saw this and could no longer care about anything else. He immediately said tremblingly: "Ahem... Si Chen, you've come just in time! Quick! Capture this rebellious son for me!"
As soon as the old emperor finished speaking, Li Yuanfu came to his senses and quickly waved his hand to signal the people around him to take action.
"I'll see who dares to act rashly!"
Mo Sichen glanced at the person in front of him with cold eyes, and a strong murderous aura emanated from his body.
As soon as Mo Sichen finished speaking, everyone around him couldn't help but take two steps back in fear.
After all, he is the living devil on the battlefield. This terrifying feeling of oppression is not something that ordinary people can withstand.
Mo Sichen walked in slowly from the doorway, holding a heavy black iron sword. With every step he took, those people couldn't help but take a step back.
Li Yuanfu's forehead gradually broke out into a thin layer of sweat. "Prince Chen, he is so wary of you, why don't you just serve him wholeheartedly? Why don't you just follow me? From now on, you will be my right-hand man, and enjoy endless wealth and glory!"
Mo Sichen remained unmoved and continued to move forward slowly.
"If you believe me and follow my words, I will definitely treat you well and will never treat you unfairly!"
Mo Sichen's eyes narrowed suddenly when he heard this. "Heh... I don't need that! A loser like you, do you really deserve to be treated well?"
Mo Sichen's words completely infuriated Li Yuanfu, "Humph! Since you are so stubborn, I will grant your wish!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his hand and said, "Come here! Come to me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people swarmed over and surrounded Mo Sichen in the center.
"Anyone who can kill King Chen will be promoted to a higher rank, rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold, and a thousand acres of fertile land!"
This condition was attractive enough, so the guards behind Li Yuanfu were instantly excited after hearing it. They drew their swords and rushed towards Mo Sichen.
Mo Sichen looked at the people rushing towards him, his expression remained calm, and he didn't even lift his eyelids.
