The prince died and the palace was solemn, but the funeral was not grand.
The specifications of the deceased prince's funeral largely depend on the emperor's favor.
The tenth prince's mother was just an ordinary imperial concubine, and she did not receive any extra favor from His Majesty.
It was another assassination attempt, and it concerned the dignity of the royal family.
Now that the case has not been solved, the news of the prince's assassination will not be made public.
So even after the Tenth Prince died, he did not receive the funeral that a prince deserved.
The body was placed on a small ox-horn coffin, and the surface of the coffin was painted with a layer of gold paint.
The remains had been arranged and the gap on the chest had been blocked with stone jade, so it could barely be considered a complete corpse.
The princes stood around, each with a different expression.
But regardless of whether it was true or false, they all showed sadness.
Some were so heartbroken that they burst into tears, and their tears fell on the marble floor.
Zhao Que looked at the corpse lying in the coffin, and there was no ripple in his heart.
Zhao Yuan wanted to kill himself and was even willing to hire a killer.
There is nothing wrong with killing him. I am not a saint.
If you don't have a trump card, you might be the one lying in wait.
The fate of the eighth prince Zhao Li was actually part of the plan.
Among all the princes in the capital, none of them have a very good relationship with the Tenth Prince.
If he wanted to invite someone to have a drink together, it would probably be the Eighth Prince, who came from the same family as him.
The eldest prince has always been majestic and old-fashioned, so the tenth prince naturally didn't dare to do that.
He also didn't dare to do that because the second prince was of foreign descent and came from a military background.
The third prince is not in the capital now, and the fourth prince has the personality of a psychopath.
The fifth prince is gifted and is considered a hero by his martial arts skills. The tenth prince, who just wants to eat and wait for death, is naturally looked down upon.
The twelfth prince originally had a chance.
But now he has encountered a great change, most of his relatives have died, and he is not in a good mood.
Besides, the affairs of the Zhang family are enough to worry him, and the Tenth Prince will not run into such bad luck.
As for the other princes, the seventeenth prince was studying art on an overseas fairy island, so naturally it was impossible for him to come.
After much deliberation, only the eighth prince Zhao Li is a suitable candidate.
Emperor Dagan glanced at the expressions of the other princes, then glanced at Zhao Que:
"You said Yuan'er secretly asked you to go to the south of the city? But you are in the north of the city?"
Zhao Yuan made the appointment with Zhao Que secretly, for he was afraid that Zhao Que would not come.
I also left the city from the south and made a circle to the north, which is why he wanted to meet me outside the city.
Zhao Que nodded and presented the invitation letter to His Majesty the Emperor.
"Yes, I don't know why my tenth brother is like this.
He clearly asked me to meet him in private at the south of the city, but he ended up at the north.
I also asked my eighth brother to go to the north of the city, and then he encountered this disaster again..."
Speaking of this, Zhao Que couldn't help feeling sad, tears kept falling, as if his true feelings were revealed.
When the Emperor Da Gan saw the letter, he was lost in thought and suddenly asked, "Were you also assassinated the day before yesterday?"
Zhao Que felt a little scared when he heard this.
He nodded and quickly replied, “Yes, it looks like this is organized and conspiratorial.
If I had reminded my tenth brother more often, these things wouldn't have happened.
It was all my fault that Tenth Brother was harmed. If I had warned him earlier, this wouldn't have happened."
At this point, his words were trembling, unable to utter a complete sentence: "It's all...I harmed...Tenth Brother.
I beg you, Father, to find out the truth and give my tenth brother justice."
“Ah…” Emperor Da Gan also sighed, patted Zhao Que on the shoulder, and comforted him: “Don’t be too sad.
This matter is strange, but no matter what the truth is, I will not let the real culprit go unpunished."
"Heh... Sixth brother, what you said, I remember that Tenth brother has always had a bad relationship with you.
This time I made an appointment with you, could it be that I actually want to kill you?
As a result, he went too far and lost his life.
Maybe you killed the person and you are still pretending here.
Father, I think that besides my eighth brother, my sixth brother is also a big suspect.
It would be better to put him in the Heavenly Prison and let the Imperial Clan Bureau conduct a thorough investigation."
The speaker was the fourth prince of Dagan, who looked very similar to the emperor of Dagan.
In order to cater to the preferences of the public, he dressed and dressed like the prince of the Emperor Dagan.
But the more he suppressed his personality, the more perverted his already perverted personality became.
What he said was actually just copying from someone else's homework. The same thing happened forty years ago.
Emperor Zhao Yue, who had lost a prince, or even a prince himself, said this, and later found out the truth.
But the difference is that Emperor Zhao Yue of Dagan said it in private, and there is evidence.
The words of the Fourth Prince in front of him were empty words, and the Emperor Dagan was furious when he heard them.
He raised his hand and slapped him, even though he didn't use his internal energy, the body of the Supreme Grandmaster was already extremely strong.
Even though the Fourth Prince had innate cultivation, he was still knocked dozens of meters away by the huge force, spitting out blood and having several teeth knocked out.
Suddenly, I felt my head buzzing and looked at my father in disbelief.
I clearly expressed my opinion, why was I treated like this?
"Put aside your little tricks. You're still trying to sow discord between brothers." Zhao Yue's voice was as cold as a knife.
"Old Ten is dead, and you are just not sad.
Are you still fighting for power and framing others here?
If I die that day, will you still dance on my grave?"
The fourth prince quickly said in a vague voice that he didn't dare.
He didn't quite understand, and felt even more aggrieved, which later turned into resentment.
He didn't understand that he was imitating the person in front of him, imitating his own father.
In order to make him happy, I read his biography, The Royal Secret History.
It can be said that he may understand better than the emperor himself what he did and said at what time.
But in this situation, why is the ending different? I clearly spent so much energy trying to imitate and please him.
He even covered up himself, so why did he end up like this?
Zhao Que heard the Fourth Prince's words and looked at His Majesty again.
He sighed and said, "Please don't be angry, Father. Listen to what Fourth Brother said. This matter is indeed my fault.
I, your son, and your tenth brother, do not get along and often have arguments.
As an older brother, I just can't bear to see him go astray and bully boys and girls, so I want to encourage my tenth younger brother.
If this is really the reason, it caused the death of the tenth brother.
This matter has nothing to do with my eighth brother. It was me who harmed my tenth brother. If I could have a heart-to-heart talk with my tenth brother, I could resolve this matter.
It wouldn't be like this. It's all my fault that Tenth Brother was harmed. I beg Father to punish me."
The words are sincere and don't seem fake!
