It would be better to just go all out and occupy the palace first.
Thinking of this, Leng Xi simply steeled his mind, raised his eyebrows slightly, clenched his fists in his sleeves, and then stood up from the ground, looked at the emperor, and asked loudly,
"Shui Luolan, this person is not my father at all. He must be an imposter. You actually used a fake emperor to deceive us. This is really too much. Come on, rush in and arrest this fake emperor, Shui Luolan, and all those who resisted."
Leng Xi's words made the emperor so angry that his eyes went dark and he almost fainted.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"
Liu Xi hurried forward to support the emperor, "Please don't be angry."
Then, he looked up at Leng Xi and asked loudly:
"Prince Xi, you led your troops into the palace and were so rude to the Emperor. You are so bold! Do you want to rebel?"
"Hmph! Liu Xi, I think you're planning a rebellion. You colluded with Shui Luolan to murder my father, and now you've created a fake emperor to deceive everyone. Today I'm going to kill you to seek justice for my father and the people of Daning."
Seeing that Leng Xi was beyond help, Luo Lan took two steps forward and said angrily, "
"You speak so righteously, but you're doing such inhuman things. Leng Xi, how can you tell that the emperor is a fake? What evidence do you have to prove that the emperor in front of you is a fake? Stop digging your own grave here. Stop it now."
She didn't want Leng Xi to commit the heinous crime of regicide and treason. No matter how bad he was, no matter what he had done to Leng Yu and her, he was still An An's biological father. From this point of view alone, she didn't want him to commit the same serious crime as Leng Yun, who was confiscated his property and executed.
Although the emperor's mood calmed down a little, his body had not recovered yet and he was a little unsteady on his feet. Liu Xi hurriedly waved to the people around him, and someone brought a chair.
As soon as the emperor sat down, he collapsed on the chair, gasping for breath and pointing at Leng Xi.
"You...get out of here quickly, don't let me see you again."
Seeing that the emperor's tone had become so harsh, Leng Xi knew that even if he did not rebel today, he would not be valued by the emperor in the future. It would be better to go all out and occupy the palace. Anyway, he had surrounded the palace inside and out. As long as he gave an order, the entire palace would be under his control.
Thinking of this, his face became solemn, his brows were furrowed, veins on his face bulged, and two different thoughts were wandering in his mind.
Does he really want to kill the king and his father?
Does he really want to do something that will make everyone despise him and point fingers at him?
Will he be condemned as a traitor by future generations?
No, no, this isn't treason. Since ancient times, the victor is king and the loser is a bandit. As long as they seize the world, what's wrong with killing the emperor and their father? How many people dare to say it's treason?
After repeated psychological struggles, he made up his mind to seize the throne today.
Thinking of this, he suddenly gritted his teeth and was about to order everyone to take action when Concubine Li suddenly came hurriedly. Before she even got close, she couldn't wait to shout loudly:
"Leng Xi, you are so brave, how dare you bring so many people into the palace?"
As she said this, she quickly came to the front of everyone and knelt down.
"Your Majesty, Xi'er has long suspected that you were imprisoned in the Yangxin Palace, which is why he acted so impulsively. Please don't blame him for being rude. I will take him back now and let him reflect on his mistakes."
Li Fei's words made Leng Xi's forehead twist into a knot. He deliberately reminded Li Fei,
"Mother, what are you talking about? He is not the emperor, he is fake. I am avenging my father. Please go back to your Li Garden and don't get involved here."
Seeing Leng Xi was still stubborn, Concubine Li stood up from the ground with her skirt lifted, and quickly came to Leng Xi. When he was completely defenseless, she slapped him three times, yelling at him angrily.
"You are so confused. You are afraid that your father is fake. This is well-intentioned, but he is your father. Mother will not admit her mistake. Why don't you kneel down and admit your mistake?"
After she finished speaking to everyone, she continued with a low warning:
"Leng Yu has returned and is almost at the city gate. He has also brought with him 30,000 elite soldiers, who are heading towards the capital. Liu Dechang has also gathered his troops and has detained the people outside your palace. They have already entered the palace gate and are about to attack us. Why don't you stop? Do you want to die?"
Concubine Li's words made Leng Xi shudder suddenly. Leng Yu is back? Why did he come back so suddenly? Can people outside the palace be controlled so easily by Liu Dechang? This is impossible!
He blinked a few times and stood there at a loss.
Concubine Li suddenly pulled his collar, facing the emperor, raised her voice, and reminded him with her eyebrows raised.
"Leng Xi, you are eager to save your father, and I understand your feelings. But the man sitting there is your father. Even though he is not in good condition, I will never admit my mistake. Kneel down quickly and apologize to your father."
Although Leng Xi was skeptical about Concubine Li's words, he thought that Leng Yu had returned and Liu Dechang had already rushed into the palace, and his plan was completely disrupted. If he did not admit his mistake now, it would be too late to repent when the rescuers rushed in.
Thinking of this, he knelt down obediently, clasped his hands together, and said righteously:
"Father, I have offended you just now. I hope you will not blame me for my recklessness."
Seeing this, Concubine Li also agreed.
"Xi'er has been getting a bit irritable lately. I told him long ago that you'd be fine, just recuperating. He insisted, saying you'd been away for so many days and must have been murdered. Now that the truth has been clarified, Lengxi, hurry up and get your people out of the imperial city. Don't act so recklessly again."
