Chapter 199: Your Majesty Always Wants to Monopolize Me (51)
The emperor's health deteriorated, and the various factions in the court began to fight each other.
Mainly the Crown Prince's faction and the Fourth Prince's faction.
Suddenly one day, news came from the border.
Yan Ancheng and the Crown Prince were in the Emperor's bedroom.
The emperor opened the information and his hands suddenly trembled.
Yan Ancheng had a bad feeling in his heart.
Emperor: "All five thousand elite soldiers led by General Wei were killed."
Yan Ancheng's body trembled.
The emperor closed his eyes and pressed his painful forehead, "You can leave now."
The Crown Prince looked at Yan Ancheng, whose face was ashen, and said, "Fourth brother, please accept my condolences. There are many women in this world, and that Wei Asi is no exception. She was so reckless, not knowing the enemy's situation at all, and she actually dared to lead 5,000 soldiers to a surprise attack. Although there were only 5,000 people, they were elite soldiers!"
Yan Ancheng: "Shut up!"
After he finished speaking, he pushed open the palace door and knelt directly in front of the emperor's bed.
"Your Majesty, I beg you to investigate this matter. I know only too well the talent of General Wei. Furthermore, their remains have not been found. Your Majesty, please order a rescue!"
"Nonsense! The letter clearly states that Wei Asi was killed for disobeying military orders. You want me to save a reckless person? I didn't order the execution of his entire clan. That was out of my mercy! Stop talking!"
-
"Your Highness."
Yan Ancheng stood on the city wall with his hands behind his back. When he heard the voice, he turned his head and saw that it was General Sima Shan.
He hummed lightly and looked down at the city.
It was here that Asi was sent off that day. He couldn't believe that the little girl died just like that.
However, what the person sent to investigate said was exactly the same as what was said in the letter. Wei Jingyu also thought that he was dismissed from his post and the commander was replaced by someone else.
"I, Sima Shan, am a man of steel. I have been stationed in the northwest for over twenty years, all for the sake of national peace. I should have been the commander-in-chief this time, but the Emperor was wary of my military prowess, so I declined due to poor health. I am confident in the abilities of Jingyu and Asi, and Asi is not a reckless person."
Yan Ancheng looked at Sima Shan.
"I don't believe it either."
The man's white hair was neatly tied up, but the grayness in his eyes revealed his anxiety.
"Since they do this, don't blame me."
The lives of people all over the world are nothing more than ants to Yan Ancheng.
He does not want a prosperous world, nor does he want vast rivers and mountains.
All he asked for was an Asi.
Since those people are preventing him from doing what he wants, then...
Go to hell.
-
Twenty-five years of the Yan State.
The fourth prince joined forces with General Sima to rebel in the capital.
The prince was beheaded and the emperor was imprisoned.
Yan Ancheng was wearing a black brocade robe.
It was dripping with blood.
The man's face was also very cold.
"Yan Ancheng, you actually want to kill me! I am your father!"
The old emperor lay on the bed, his face red with anger.
Yan Ancheng plunged the knife into the chest of the last living person and walked over holding the sword dripping with blood.
He sneered, "Father? Do you deserve to be killed?"
"The royal family has never had any family affection. This is what you taught me."
"Didn't your son tell you that he wanted to marry the eldest daughter of the Wei family? You agreed, but what happened? Then you and my good brother killed Ah Si. Why? Because you were afraid that the Wei family would become the next Sima Shan. You were afraid!"
The emperor's eyes widened.
"How do you know!"
"Oh," Yan Ancheng said coldly, his bright red lips tightly pursed, "Come here, take him away and lock him up with his good son!"
In the 25th year of the Yan Kingdom, the Yan Kingdom's palace was massacred by the fourth prince.
The fourth prince proclaimed himself emperor.
He was known as the Emperor of Yan.
