In the main hall.
"Cough cough... cough cough..."
Nangong Yongchang coughed violently several times and locked his eyes tightly on the other person.
It's him!
It’s Nangong Yueze! !
He is not dead!
He is still alive! !
Nangong Yongchang was so excited that his whole body was shaking.
He thought he would never see his ninth son again, but he never thought that he would see him again in his lifetime.
At that moment, he really wanted to get up, rush to Aiko, and tell him that he shouldn't have treated him like that in the first place.
It's a pity that his body doesn't obey his orders at all.
"Uh... son... son..."
Nangong Yongchang tried his best to open his mouth to Aizi, but unfortunately, before he could finish his words, another violent choking cough came.
Seeing this, Nangong Yueze stepped forward quickly, raised his hand and gently patted Nangong Yongchang's back to help him calm down.
After a while, after seeing that Nangong Yongchang was feeling a little better, Nangong Yueze covered him with the quilt again.
"I never expected that Nangong Jing would treat you like this." Nangong Yueze lowered his eyes and stared at the old man on the bed, with a complicated expression on his handsome and cold face.
"Uh... uh..." Nangong Yongchang continued to make vague sounds in his throat.
There are so many things he wants to say to Nangong Yueze, but he can't say a word now.
"Father." Nangong Yueze bit his lip, "Nangong Jing dares to imprison you, I will definitely not let him go!"
"Uh... cough cough cough... uh..." After hearing this, Nangong Yongchang glanced in the direction outside the palace with all his strength, as if he wanted to urge Nangong Yueze to leave as soon as possible.
He knew that the entire imperial city was now under Nangong Jing's control. Once Nangong Yueze was discovered by him, he would definitely be killed.
"Father..." Seeing Nangong Yongchang's actions, Nangong Yueze did not leave. Instead, he raised his hand and took out a pill from the space ring. "Father, this is a life-extending pill. Take it." With it, your body will slowly recover."
After saying that, he leaned over and stuffed the elixir into Nangong Yongchang's mouth.
The elixir flowed down the esophagus, and finally turned into a warm current, which wandered around Nangong Yongchang's body, and finally merged into his heart.
Under the influence of the elixir, Nangong Yongchang's stroke was obviously much better. Not only could he move his body, but he could also speak much more fluently.
Feeling the warmth in his heart, Nangong Yong breathed a sigh of relief. He used all his strength to finally shout out the two words in his heart, "Your Majesty..."
At first, in order to get the life-extending elixir, he ignored Nangong Yueze's feelings and forced her to marry Luo Yushang.
For this reason, he almost lost his son.
Now, he has reaped the consequences and landed in this field. Not only is he paralyzed, but he is also imprisoned here and may die suddenly at any time.
He did not ask for himself to regain power. The only thing he wished for was that Nangong Yueze could forgive him.
"Father, I know what you want to say. Let the past go by." Nangong Yueze sighed. After speaking, he stretched out his hand, held Nangong Yongchang's skinny arm, and continued: "You The elixir you just took can not only cure diseases, but also prolong your life. You don’t want to think about anything else now, just rest in peace and recuperate."
"Your Majesty... cough cough cough..." Nangong Yongchang swallowed hard, "I... I was really too selfish before, cough cough cough... I... I'm sorry for you..."
"Father, you don't have to say anything anymore. No matter what you do, I will never resent you." Nangong Yueze shook his head and said.
Hearing this, Nangong Yongchang's eyes flashed with tears.
"boom--"
At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from the palace door.
One of Nangong Jing's eunuchs stationed outside the palace ran in from the door. When he saw Nangong Yueze standing in the palace, the eunuch was surprised, then hurriedly turned around and ran out of the palace.
Seeing the scene in front of him, Nangong Yongchang quickly grabbed Nangong Yueze's hand, "Emperor, cough cough cough... you... you go quickly, get out of here quickly, never... never let Nangong Jing find him , otherwise, he will not let you go, cough cough cough..."
"Father." Nangong Yueze frowned, "You don't have to worry about me. Since I'm here, I never thought of leaving!"
"Your Majesty, you..." Nangong Yongchang was stunned when he heard this.
At that moment, he suddenly felt that his ninth prince was really different from before.
"Father, please have a good rest, and I will go meet Nangong Jing personally." Nangong Yueze pondered for a moment and continued.
"Your Majesty, you must be careful..." Nangong Yongchang couldn't help but warned, "Nangong Jing has gone crazy, he... he will do anything to seize my throne, ahem cough……"
"Well, I have my own discretion." Nangong Yueze nodded, immediately let go of Nangong Yongchang's hand, turned around and left the hall.
…
On the other side, inside Zhaoyang Palace.
Nangong Jingzheng and Prime Minister Su Mingde were discussing how to convict Nangong Yueze. At this moment, a chamberlain suddenly ran in from outside the palace in a panic, "Your Highness, it's bad, this servant... I just saw His Highness Ninth Prince! !”
"What? Nangong Yueze?" After hearing this, Nangong Jing stood up suddenly and asked eagerly, "Where is he now?"
"Your Majesty the Ninth Prince... His Majesty the Ninth Prince is in His Majesty's bedroom." The chamberlain replied cautiously.
"Damn it!" Nangong Jing punched the table hard, and suddenly became furious, "Didn't Li Yangming send secret guards to find him? Everyone else has come under my nose, why is there no one there? Know??!!"
"Your Highness, calm down first!" Su Mingde frowned and said, "Since Nangong Yueze dares to come, then we will capture him on the spot!!"
"Huh, what you said is easy. Not to mention how many people he came with. If he resists, he will definitely cause an uproar in the entire imperial city. How will we end up?" Nangong Jing gritted his teeth.
"So what if he has great abilities? The entire Nebula Empire Imperial City is already under your control, Your Highness. Are you still afraid that Nangong Yueze will do something wrong??" Su Mingde said with a sneer.
In his opinion, Nangong Yueze was alone and could not make any waves at all.
Nangong Jing narrowed his eyes and fell into deep thought. After a moment, he said in a deep voice: "Su Mingde, please go down immediately. Ninth Prince Nangong Yueze deliberately conspired to rebel! The crime must not be punished! Once he is caught, he will be punished without any need for his subordinates. Have mercy!!""
"Yes, Your Highness!" Su Mingde bowed and responded.
…
At the same time, outside Zhaoyang Palace.
Nangong Yueze was walking towards the palace gate step by step. His handsome face was calm, as if he was not at all afraid of the danger he was about to face.
"Brother Ninth! Brother Ninth!!"
At this time, a voice of joy came, causing Nangong Yueze to pause. He looked back and saw Nangong Wanyan, wearing a pink dress, running towards him.
"Wanyan, why are you here?" Nangong Yueze paused slightly.
"Someone came to Yuhua Palace just now to tell my concubine that Brother Ninth Brother is back. As soon as I heard the news, I rushed over." Nangong Wanyan's cheeks turned red. She rushed to Nangong Yueze and said excitedly. .
"Wanyan, I..." Before Nangong Yueze could finish his words, a large group of imperial city guards suddenly came towards them from all directions.
"Give His Majesty the Seventh Highness the command to capture the traitor who is having an affair with Yuyue Kingdom!!" Su Mingde's voice came from not far away, and immediately after, the group of imperial city guards directly killed Nangong Yueze and Nangong Wanyan. Surrounded.
Nangong Yueze narrowed her eyes and raised a cold and bloodthirsty curve on her lips: "Su Mingde, you are so brave!!"
"Hahaha, Your Majesty Ninth Prince, please stop bluffing. Today, you will never leave here alive no matter what!" Su Mingde pulled out the sword from his waist and shouted coldly.
Nangong Yueze glanced at the guards around him, then turned around, looked at Su Mingde condescendingly, and said lightly: "Su Mingde, do you really not know how to write the word 'death'??"
"Stop talking nonsense!" Su Mingde waved his hand impatiently, "Nangong Yueze, don't think that because you are His Majesty's son, His Majesty the Seventh Prince will let you go. In the heart of this veteran, His Majesty the Seventh Prince is the legitimate Crown Prince!!"
"Justified? Hahaha!" Nangong Yueze sneered several times, "He is a traitor and traitor who killed his father and mother, how does he deserve these four words??"
"Don't talk nonsense!!!" Su Mingde yelled angrily, "Concubine Ning was clearly the victim of you, and His Majesty, His Majesty's stroke was all because of you!! You are the culprit!!"
"Oh?" Nangong Yueze raised his eyebrows, with a strange cold look in his eyes, "You said that His Majesty and Concubine Ning were harmed by this king. Where is the evidence? Did you see it with your own eyes or hear it with your own ears?"
"...!!" Su Mingde was extremely angry, "Nangong Yueze, you are still quibbling!!"
"Sophistry? Haha, if there is no evidence, it is a frame-up. Su Mingde, you should worry about yourself first!" Nangong Yueze walked forward slowly, his dark eyes as deep as an ancient pool, making people unpredictable. What was he thinking.
"Come on! Hurry! Get him!" Su Mingde shouted angrily.
"yes!"
In an instant, the surrounding imperial city guards raised their swords and attacked Nangong Yueze.
At this moment, a sharp shout suddenly came from a distance.
"Everyone, please stop it!!!"
Everyone looked for a voice and saw the third prince Nangong Yichen galloping towards them with several groups of imperial guards.
Seeing Nangong Yichen, Su Mingde's face showed a hint of surprise, "Why is he here?"
Nangong Yichen held a long sword with a cold face. After glancing at Su Mingde indifferently, his eyes fell on Nangong Yueze, "Ninth brother, don't worry, third brother is here today and I won't let anyone hurt you at all! "
Hearing this, Nangong Yueze had a faint smile on his lips, "Third brother, if you come here at this time, aren't you afraid of being implicated by me?"
"Afraid? Huh, I, Nangong Yichen, never know how to write the word fear!!" Nangong Yichen said softly: "You are my brother, how can I leave you alone at this time?!"
After finishing speaking, he raised his hand and ordered to the imperial guards following him: "Everyone, listen to me, no matter what happens today, we must protect His Highness the Ninth Prince to the death!!"
"Yes!!" Several teams of Imperial Guards responded in unison.
