Chapter 336 Today is the day you die
That is the late emperor’s will!
The news of the late emperor's will leaked out shortly after Ji Yueze ascended the throne, but even though Prince Xiao was in command of a large army at the time, he did not show any signs of abnormality.
So many years have passed, and everyone in the world thought that Prince Xiao would never take out this will again.
However, who would have thought that Prince Xiao had no intention of coveting the throne, and the emperor had never let go of his guard against Prince Xiao. A false charge of exile and a hasty confiscation of property finally forced Prince Xiao into a situation where he had to fight back.
When Ji Yueze saw Ji Xiaohan take out the long-awaited will of the late emperor, his panicked expression was mixed with a hint of excitement. Ji Xiaohan really had the will of the late emperor in his hand!
His decision was not wrong. Ji Xiaohan was secretly plotting to seize the throne, and it was not wrong for him to force him out of the imperial city in advance.
Ji Xiaohan looked at Ji Yueze, whose expression was gradually going crazy, and said with pity in his tone: "Do you know why I have never taken out the late emperor's will for all these years?"
Ji Yueze's eyes were fixed on the will. Upon hearing this, he said disdainfully, "Of course you are waiting for a favorable opportunity to force me to abdicate..."
"No, that's just your narrow-mindedness, my royal brother, and your groundless speculation about others. I have never thought of becoming emperor. I have said this to my father before. That's why he secretly drafted this edict to keep me out of your fight."
Ji Yueze's frantic expression suddenly froze, and he asked hesitantly, "What...did you say?"
The look in Ji Xiaohan's eyes gradually grew colder. "My father gave me this imperial edict because he thought that no matter who of you sat in that position, you would be wary of me because I hold the succession edict in my hand and would not dare to embarrass me."
Ji Yueze fell down on the dragon throne, and the scene before his eyes emerged when he knelt in front of his father's bed, raised the dagger, stabbed him, the sorrow and chill in his eyes flashed, and he muttered Ji Xiaohan's name.
Could it be that what the emperor wanted to say at that time was not that he hoped Ji Xiaohan would come back to save him, but that he had something to say to him?
Ji Xiaohan's voice came again, "Did the emperor talk about me before he died? You didn't even bother to listen to the last words he wanted to say. You were afraid that others would hear it and kill him! Kill him!!"
The hall was dead silent!
Is this something they can listen to?
Will he be silenced by his master?
A glimmer flashed in Ji Yueze's eyes, "I have never done this, Ji Xiaohan, please don't slander me..."
"It doesn't matter whether you admit it or not. No matter whether you did it or not, today is the day you die." After saying that, Ji Xiaohan turned his wrist, and a dagger appeared in his palm. Upon closer inspection, it was exactly the same dagger that Ji Yueze had hidden in his sleeve.
The dagger cut through the silent air, and when Ji Yueze dodged, it stabbed into his chest, exactly as Ji Yueze had stabbed into the chest of the late emperor.
Ji Yueze's face was pale, not only because of the dull pain in his chest, but more because of the shock in his heart. He had sent people to watch over the late emperor's body the whole time, and no one else knew about it. No one in the world knew the real cause of the late emperor's death.
Why was Ji Xiaohan's stab so accurate? Did he really know something?
Ji Xiaohan didn't give him a chance to think. He approached him and coldly watched his dying breath. "Do you remember this knife? Do you remember the feeling when the knife stabbed you? Were you like me back then?"
