The other princes looked at each other in bewilderment. They had not expected to encounter a scene of fratricide right after they arrived.
The emperor sneered, "How can you say I poisoned you? This poison was yours. Prince Dongshan had me poisoned yesterday. Have you forgotten?"
"Jiang... Concubine Jiang... Concubine Jiang betrayed... betrayed her master." King Dongshan met Concubine Jiang yesterday, and there was no one else but her.
"It's not a betrayal. Concubine Jiang has always been my Concubine Jiang. The replacement you arranged died before returning to the capital." The emperor taunted Prince Dongshan: "You thought you could replace someone else, you thought your replacement was perfect, but you're still a little short of plotting against me, Prince Dongshan."
King Dongshan then realized that the man was not the real substitute.
King Dongshan then realized that they had been fooled.
I thought I could accomplish great things this time, but it didn't show, so it was all in vain.
fortunately.......
When King Dongshan fell down, a smile of relief appeared on his face.
The emperor kicked the corpse of the King of Dongshan in disgust and said, "Drag this traitor who murdered the king out and hang him on the city gate. Let his corpse be exposed for three days as a warning to others."
The princes present didn't dare to say a word.
The emperor also asked the Prince of Xiangyang, "Do you think my punishment is right?"

Prince Xiangyang knelt down and said, "Your Majesty is wise and righteous. Treasonous ministers and traitors must be punished by all."
The emperor looked at the other princes again.
Prince Guangliang and Prince Shuchuan fell to their knees and said in unison, "Prince Dongshan's crimes are unforgivable and he deserves death."
The emperor smiled with satisfaction: "You are right. King Dongshan deserves to die. None of King Dongshan's descendants can escape. All of King Dongshan's lineage will be executed. Not a single one will be spared."
The King of Xiangyang did not dare to plead for mercy, because it was the King of Dongshan who killed the king!
And they were also severely beaten.
If these princes are not honest, they will be the ones to be executed and their bodies will be exposed next time.
Their descendants will all be executed without exception.
The emperor summoned them into the palace this time not to let them watch the fun, but to let them know that if they disobey, they will become the King of Dongshan.
