"Brother Wang!"
When Luo Jie came in and saw Luo Ge, he pretended to be surprised.
"I'm so glad you're back safely."
Seeing his hypocritical look, Loge couldn't help but sneer in his heart, "Yes, that's great. Are you happy that your brother can return safely?"
"Happy! Of course I am happy!"
"That's great."
As soon as they met, the two brothers secretly competed with each other.
Afterwards, Luo Jie bowed to the King of Nanzhao and said, "Father, are you feeling better today?"
"Same old." King Nanzhao said and coughed a few more times.
"Father, I have found a doctor from outside the palace with excellent medical skills. Please allow him to examine you." When Luo Jie came in earlier, he was accompanied by a middle-aged man.
The King of Nanzhao nodded, and at Luojie's signal, the doctor stepped forward to take the King's pulse.
After a while, the doctor knelt down and said, "Your Majesty's illness is already terminal, and I am powerless to help you."
"How dare you!" Luo Jie scolded, "Father is just..."
The King of Nanzhao raised his hand to stop him, "I know my own body, please leave."
The doctor withdrew immediately.
Logge watched all this from the side, secretly guessing the intention of Logie's action.
"I'm afraid this disease of mine won't be cured."
The King of Nanzhao did not know that he had been poisoned. He just thought that he was unlucky and had suddenly contracted the disease.
Before this, the doctors who had treated him did not find that the King of Nanzhao's illness was poisoning.
After hearing what the King of Nanzhao said, Luo Jie immediately said, "Father, I heard that there is a valley in Daxia called Yaoling Valley. There is a miracle doctor in the valley who can bring the dead back to life. Maybe he can cure your illness. How about... I take people to invite that miracle doctor?"
Luo Jie's words made Luo Ge even more confused. He didn't seem to want his father to die...
But didn't he go so far as to hire someone to assassinate me just to sit on the throne?
The King of Nanzhao was a little tempted and asked, "The miracle doctor is from Daxia, right? Can we invite him?"
"If you can't invite him, then tie him up!"
After a moment's silence, the King of Nanzhao looked at Luo Jie and said, "Be careful."
"yes."
Luoge saluted the King of Nanzhao and said, "Father, I am willing to go with you, my brother."
"I am very pleased that you two brothers have this heart. Go ahead."
Afterwards, Loge and Logie left the bedroom of the King of Nanzhao.
After walking a distance from the bedroom, Loge frowned and asked meaningfully: "Luojie, what do you want to do?"
"What do you mean, brother Wang?"
"You know what I mean."
The smile on Luo Jie's face fell, "Brother Wang, he is my father, I have never thought of harming him."
"Huh! How can you be so filial? You tried every means to take my life before, was it out of brotherhood?" Log sneered.
Luo Jie also sneered, "Wasn't it Brother Wang who wanted to kill me first?"
Loge frowned, "What do you mean?"
"Brother Wang, have you forgotten so quickly that you poisoned the snacks you sent me?"
There is a person with a special sense of smell around Luo Jie, who can smell smells that ordinary people can't smell.
That day, Luo Jie brought back a box of snacks from Luo Ge, and the man immediately smelled that the snacks were poisoned.
Loge didn't know what poisonous snacks were, and he had never poisoned Loge.
However, he could probably guess what was going on.
It was probably Luo Cheng who poisoned his snacks, but he didn't know and gave the snacks to Luo Jie.
Then, Luo Jie found out that the snacks were poisonous and misunderstood that he was trying to poison him.
Log looked at Logie and said firmly, "I have never poisoned you."
"At this point, is there any point in telling such a lie?" Luo Jie didn't believe it.
Log: "I have always been brave enough to take responsibility for what I have done. Believe it or not, it's up to you."
Luo Jie pursed his lips and looked at Luo Ge. After a while, he turned around and left without saying anything.
After returning to his residence, he kept thinking about what Loge said, and before he knew it, night had fallen.
Not long after nightfall, bad news came from the palace.
The King of Nanzhao died of illness!
Upon hearing the news, Loge and Logie rushed to the palace, only to see the King of Nanzhao lying on the bed with a pale face and no life.
Not long after, the Qingping official, the high priest and others also hurried here.
It was only at this time that Luoge and Luojie learned that not long after they returned during the day, the King of Nanzhao secretly summoned the Qingping official and wrote an edict of succession.
Fearing that something unexpected might happen, the Qingping official read out the imperial edict on the spot: "I am a humble man, but I have inherited the foundation laid by my ancestors and have taken the throne of Nanzhao. Fortunately, I have the support of my ministers and the people, which has made me prosperous today.
However, fate is unpredictable, and I am seriously ill. I am afraid that my end is near.
Among all his sons and nephews, I find that only the third son, Luo Jie, is talented, courageous and resolute, and has the demeanor of an emperor.
Today, I have issued an imperial edict to pass the throne to Luojie. I hope you will carry on my legacy and push Nanzhao's hegemony to a new peak..."
After hearing the imperial edict, Loge was not surprised.
Because Luo Jie and his father had the same ambition, which was to attack Daxia and become the master of the world.
After the Qingping official finished reading the imperial edict, he looked at Luo Jie and said, "Third Prince, accept the order."
"Your son has received your order and will follow your father's will."
As Luo Jie's voice fell, all the Nanzhao officials present greeted the new King of Nanzhao in unison.
The next day, Luo Jie issued an obituary to announce the death of the King of Nanzhao to the people of Nanzhao.
There was a cry of grief throughout Nanzhao.

At this time, on the other side, Lu Yunting, General Zhang Xiao and others also rushed to the Lu family army camp on the border.
All the officers and soldiers of the Lu family army knew that Qiu Jian led part of the Lu family army to rebel.
