Chapter 679 If you don’t know, you might think he is in the same group with Balanch.
Screams were heard throughout the hall, and some Gu Masters who saw the situation was not looking good finally thought of escaping.
However, the opportunity to eradicate the remnants of Balanch was right in front of them, and He Fanxiong did not give them any chance to escape.
"If you let these people escape, I will hold you accountable!"
At that moment, the screams became more miserable. Ran Qingxuan looked at He Fanxiong who had already adapted to his identity, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Summon all civil and military officials to the palace immediately."
Balanch is dead. Regardless of whether those officials were coerced or poisoned, they still need to be cleaned up.
Long before these people came in, Ran Qingxuan had already put the bodies of Sha Miaoyin and He Chengxuan into the space.
That night, the Blue Rain Palace was flooded with blood, and the few palace servants were shocked when corpses were carried out one by one.
Until the hall was cleaned up and everything seemed to have returned to normal, the lingering smell of blood was still reminding everyone of what had just happened.
At dawn, an eerie silence permeated the throne room of the Blue Rain Palace.
The only twenty-two remaining officials stood on both sides, their bodies trembling slightly under their official robes.
Some of them still had unsolved poisonous insects in their bodies, and some had scars on their faces from Balanch's fingernails.
When He Fanxiong stepped into the hall wearing dragon-patterned court robes, Sima Hui, the old prime minister of Lanyu Kingdom, lost his balance and fell to his knees.
That face seemed to be about 80% similar to He Chengxuan, but the look in his eyes was completely different, like a blade tempered by ice.
"Ballanch has been killed." He Fanxiong raised his hand, and two guards carried the dried corpse wrapped in gorgeous clothes and threw it under the imperial steps.
The mummy's arm was hit and its fingers suddenly twitched. This scene frightened several officials so much that they fell to the ground.
Sima Hui burst into tears and knelt down and said: "Five years...I have been waiting for this day for five years..."
One day five years ago, He Chengxuan suddenly became seriously ill and lay in bed every day. Even when he went to court, he would hide behind thick curtains.
The vague state lasted for a long time, and it was always the imperial teacher Balanch who was promoting the imperial edict on behalf of He Cheng.
For many years, he had been contacting loyal ministers to try to get a meeting with He Chengxuan, but every time, under the leadership of Balanch, they were hurriedly sent away without even a few words.
Sima Hui had already sensed something was wrong, but due to Balanch's power he was unable to meet He Chengxuan alone.
He pointed outside the palace with trembling hands: "Over the years, Balanch has been killing loyal officials. The dungeons are almost full of loyal officials..."
"Please, Your Majesty, please release those loyal ministers!"
"You don't have to say it, I know it too." He Fanxiong interrupted him. His voice was not loud but it made everyone in the hall solemn.
"Balanhe has imprisoned me for many years, and even bewitched me in an attempt to control the government. Her crimes are too numerous to list, otherwise she would not have ended up like this today.
Pass on my oral order. The prison will be opened to welcome the people at noon today. All civil and military officials...you should follow along. ”
Looking at the court with only a few people present, He Fanxiong felt sad for his brother and worried about his grandson's future.
Gu Yanchen and Ran Qingxuan dressed up as eunuchs and palace maids, stood beside He Fanxiong, and silently watched the court officials below.
Sima Hui had already opened the door to release the loyal minister, so He Fanxiong didn't need to find an excuse to ask again.
only...
"How can your majesty prove that he is not a puppet of Baranch?"
Suddenly a man walked out from the ranks of generals. Han Yi, his iron armor clanged as he pressed the hilt of his sword, his eagle eyes as bright as lightning.
“I have personally seen that evil woman using living people to raise Gu, and then she created a monster covered in human skin!
Since Your Majesty said that you were poisoned and imprisoned, is it possible that you were not contaminated at all? ”
Han Yi was so aggressive that if you didn't know him, you would think he was in cahoots with Balanch.
Gu Yanchen, who was disguised as a eunuch, put his fingers on the hilt of the sword. Ran Qingxuan gently pressed his wrist and shook his head.
She believed that He Fanxiong could handle it.
A sneer came from He Fanxiong's mouth, and he was seen walking down the imperial steps slowly. The soles of his boots embroidered with golden dragons stepped on the mummy's head, making a teeth-grinding cracking sound.
"How does General Han want to verify it?"
"The blood poison pool outside the dungeon."
Han Yi sneered: "Anyone who is not of the He family's bloodline will be turned into bones in an instant..."
Good guy...
Ran Qingxuan couldn't help but look at General Lan Yu a few more times. Just based on their meeting a few hours ago, he already suspected that He Fanxiong in front of him was not He Chengxuan.
If he is not truly loyal, then he already knows that the real He Chengxuan is dead, and the one in front of him is just a fake wearing He Chengxuan's skin...
He Fanxiong naturally knew that this wave was directed at him, and he was also curious as to why the emperor, who was originally terminally ill, appeared in front of them in high spirits.
"Why not? In that case, there is no need to wait until noon. Let's go to the palace dungeon now."
The royal road leading to the dungeon was not cleaned, and the stone steps were covered with dark red moss. The further one went, the stronger the sweet and fishy smell in the air.
Ran Qingxuan followed at the end of the guard team and saw beads of sweat oozing from the back of Gu Yanchen's neck and forehead.
I'm about to meet Gu Yanxing. I think he's more nervous and looking forward to it than anyone else...
The group of people stopped at the entrance of the dungeon with different thoughts in their minds. When the guards saw the 'Emperor' coming in person, they knelt down and saluted in confusion.
"Your Majesty..."
"Your Majesty, please show me your true self." Han Yi sneered and looked at He Fanxiong with confidence.
He Fanxiong simply tore open the knife wound that was made earlier to wake up the Gu King. Amid the exclamations of the crowd, blood flowed out.
During the day, the entrance to the dungeon was surrounded by a pool covered with sphagnum moss. When the first drop of blood fell into the pool, the green pool suddenly boiled.
With the blood dripping as the center, the green poisonous insects guarding the entrance made shrill hissing sounds and scrambled to flee from the place stained with blood.
After a while, the water in the pools on both sides quickly receded into normal clear water.
"Is that enough?" He Fanxiong's face looked very bad. Just as he stepped back, the Gu King perched on his shoulder let out a joyful cry, and its six wings emitted a strange red light.
Han Yi's expression changed drastically, and he suddenly drew his sword and slashed at He Fanxiong: "You are not the Blue Rain Emperor at all!"
Gu Yanchen had already made his move, but the blade in Han Yi's hand was intercepted in mid-air by a golden light. The Gu King's body suddenly swelled, and its poisonous jaws pierced directly into Han Yi's eyeball.
Amid the screams, Ran Qingxuan suddenly saw that He Fanxiong's pupils had turned into the same golden color as the Gu King.
The scene disappeared in a flash, and Ran Qingxuan thought he was dazzled.
The Gu King retreated to He Fanxiong's shoulder as if to seek credit. He Fanxiong looked displeased, but he couldn't drive the Gu King away.
Han Yi screamed in pain, and Sima Hui came forward with a pale face.
"Your Majesty, General Han acted impulsively, but please forgive me. I will explain to you later..."
A few hours ago, several people rearranged He Chengxuan's body, and Sha Miaoyin's body and mind were comforted, and she finally calmed down.
