"Mother and concubine, the child is not filial. In the next life, the child will be treated as a cow or a horse to repay the mother and concubine for the kindness of raising him!"
King Tian was very emotional, and his voice sounded like crying and laughing, with a hint of filial piety and accusation. Even from such a distance, everyone could see that his whole body was trembling.
What no one noticed was that King Tian clenched his left hand into a fist, the veins on the back of his hand popped out, and he seemed to be holding something in his palm...
Any normal person would be able to see the abnormality in King Tian.
Everyone had dark expressions and different thoughts, but everyone knew in their hearts that the reason for King Tian's abnormality couldn't be more obvious.
The throne of Nanchen Emperor originally belonged to him, but now... no matter who it is, in the position of King Tian, I am afraid that it is not much better than him.
Su Xian and Chen Keyan secretly turned their heads, looked at each other, and decided to wait and see what would happen.
Princess Tian immediately collapsed to the ground and cried: "Prince, what are you talking about..."
"Concubine, the child is unfilial..."
King Tian knelt on the ground, facing the direction of his mother and concubine, and kowtowed more than a dozen times in succession. Even from a distance of several feet, the sound of the kowtow could be heard clearly.
After King Tian finished kowtow and stood up, Su Xian found that he had an obvious scar on his forehead... It seemed that King Tian was determined to die, and the next thing would be troublesome again!
Chen Keyan frowned and took a step forward resolutely, pushing aside the soldiers holding shields. She walked to the front. She first helped Queen Tian's mother and concubine up, and then looked at King Tian:
"What exactly do you want to do? We can sit down and talk about anything. You are not a traitor like King Li. There is no need to use weapons without permission."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Under the white marble steps, King Li, who was covered in bruises, with a bruised nose and face, suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed. He did not conceal the sarcasm in his smile:
"Chen Keyan, do you still have the nerve to ask others what they want to do? Why don't you first look at what you have done? The throne, you stole the throne from others!"
"Shut up!"
Chen Keyan and King Tian scolded at the same time, both glaring at King Li under the stairs.
Then, Chen Keyan waved her hand and blocked King Li's mouth, depriving him of the right to talk nonsense.
At the same time, King Tian stood in a semi-elliptical shape composed of hundreds of personal guards. He closed his eyes and trembled slightly. The veins in his clenched hands were still bulging.
After just a few breaths, his closed eyes suddenly opened.
When he opened his eyes this time, his eyes no longer had the previous respect and elegance, nor the guilt he felt toward his mother and concubine just now. He stared at the people present, and all that remained in his eyes were despair, determination, coldness and indifference.
"tonight."
King Tian took a step forward and slowly raised his right hand.
Upon seeing this, the one hundred personal guards behind him immediately raised their crossbows, arrows already strung, and aimed at the people in front of Fengtian Hall.
Obviously, King Tian's movement of raising his hand meant "preparation". When he waved his right hand forcefully, the guards would pull the trigger of the crossbow and release arrows together.
"Wang Er... don't..."
Queen Tian's mother-in-law turned pale and burst into tears. She knew in her heart that swords have no eyes. Once the sword is used, King Tian is afraid... that there will be no way to survive!
Because Chen Keyan has 30,000 Ying Yang Guards in his hands, and King Tian only has a hundred men, so how can he fight?
As long as they sit down and have a good talk, and she mediates it, there is a high probability that King Tian will be spared.
But once you take action, it will be too late!
So she struggled desperately, trying to rush over to stop King Tian, crying and shouting...
Chen Keyan pulled her hard, she couldn't go over. King Tian was obviously not normal now, so rushing over rashly would be dangerous.
opposite.
King Tian raised his right hand high and glanced at his mother and concubine who was crying and shouting. Looking at her mother and concubine, a hint of heartache flashed deep in his eyes.
But in an instant, this heartache was overwhelmed by endless despair, determination, coldness and indifference.
Just now, he had kowtowed dozens of times and swore a solemn oath that he would work as a cow or horse for his mother and concubine in the next life to repay the kindness of raising him in this life... The bond between mother and son was gone!
Seeing that something was wrong, Su Xian quickly winked at Yang Zhilan and asked her to quickly get Chen Keyan and Princess Tian back, at least behind the shield.
King Tian's personal guards had their arrows already on strings. Even though Chen Keyan's skills were pretty good, there was no way she could avoid more than a hundred sharp arrows being shot at the same time.
Yang Zhilan nodded to accept the order, but as soon as she took action, she heard King Tian's trembling voice coming from the square: "Do it!"
While shouting, his right hand raised high also waved down hard.
At this moment, everyone's hearts trembled, their hearts beat violently, as if they had been hit by a heavy hammer, adrenaline surged, and their scalps became numb.
The second tragedy tonight seems inevitable.
Su Xian frowned and thought to himself:
"Judging from my past interactions with Prince Tian, I thought he wasn't very interested in the throne. After all, he left all political affairs to Chen Yaojie."
"The result...well, I made a mistake. The throne is the throne after all. Who can resist its temptation? King Tian only has a hundred people, and he knows that this is a 荍(pi)蜉(fu) Shake(han) Shu, he also wants to give it a try!"
Chen Keyan shook her head secretly. She actually wanted to prevent such a result, but... just now King Li ran out to cause trouble, completely disrupting her arrangements, so that... Eh!
The concubines, ministers, eunuchs, maids, etc. in the harem could not help but feel sad. King Tian was an excellent person in peacetime, and they did not want to see King Tian become like this.
All around the square, the soldiers who surrounded King Tian and his bodyguards were extremely nervous.
Among them, those holding guns tightened their guns one after another; those holding bows and arrows strung their bows one after another and pointed them at King Tian and others in the middle.
The war is about to break out!
The atmosphere at the scene was extremely tense.
However.
Just when everyone thought that a battle was inevitable, the more than a hundred personal guards forming a semi-elliptical shape behind King Tian actually changed the direction of their crossbows!
Hundreds of sharp arrows were no longer aimed at Su Xian and others in front of Fengtian Hall.
Instead, it was aimed at... King Tian!
More than a hundred personal guards lined up in a semi-elliptical shape, and simultaneously aimed their crossbows at the object of their protection, King Tian!
What does it mean?
The infinitely tense atmosphere at the scene was stagnant.
The entire palace was completely silent, not even the sound of breathing could be heard.
Could it be that the more than one hundred personal guards had rebelled?
Everyone was puzzled.
The Yingyang Guards around the square, especially those holding bows and arrows, almost shot out their sharp arrows, but luckily they held back...
The whole place was quiet for a while.
King Tian, who was targeted by hundreds of crossbows, showed no fear and roared like a filial piety: "Tonight, everyone present, including me, will die!"
"Wang Er, why are you doing this..."
Queen Mother Tian cried loudly.
The others were waiting, but their hearts were relieved.
What does "all die" mean? I'm afraid you, King Tian, are the only one who is going to die. Didn't I see that you were targeted by more than a hundred crossbows?
While relaxing, everyone felt sad for King Tian. Hey, could this silly boy regain the throne by "committing suicide" in front of Chen Keyan and Chen Diling?
At this moment, even those who were dissatisfied with Chen Keyan's ascension to the throne as the Queen had to shake their heads after seeing King Tian's performance tonight——
If Nanchen's Jiangshan Sheji was handed over to King Tian, it might really be a disaster!
At the foot of the white marble steps, King Li was tied up with a bunch of flowers and his mouth was stuffed with a ball of cloth. When he saw this scene, his expression also fell into a stagnation, and he was in a daze for a while.
Then he cursed secretly in his heart:
"Waste! Mud can't hold up a wall! Do you hurt yourself when you encounter some difficulties? Please, this is a fight for the throne. Can you be serious and mature? This is not a game of housekeeping!"
Just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and some people were still preparing to watch King Tian's joke, King Tian in the middle of the square continued to yell about filial piety:
"I have ordered people to plant a large number of divine thunders in the underground passage near Fengtian Temple. These divine thunders will explode, enough to overturn most of the palace city!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the scene fell into an eerie silence again.
No one seemed to understand.
Underground secret passage? Is there a secret passage underground in Fengtian Palace? The maids, eunuchs, ministers, soldiers, and even the concubines in the harem all had a big question mark on their foreheads.
Su Xian, Chen Keyan, and a few people who knew about it changed their expressions after hearing this.
They naturally knew that there was a secret passage under the Fengtian Palace.
In fact, there are secret passages under the entire imperial city, which are intricate and connect all places, but many people are not aware of it.
When Su Xian came to Nanchen for the first time to treat Emperor Chen, he entered the city through an underground passage, then entered the palace and went directly to Emperor Chen's chamber.
It's nothing more than a secret passage thing.
What really scares Su Xian and Chen Keyan is the divine thunder! King Tian actually planted a large number of divine thunders in the underground passage of Fengtian Palace? Is it enough to overturn most of the palace city?
hiss……
After the concubines, ministers, soldiers, eunuchs and maids of the harem came back to their senses, they felt a coldness on their backs and numbness on their scalps, feeling under their hoods a terrifying feeling of imminent disaster.
Most of the palace city will be overturned, so how can they survive?
King Tian’s move... was cruel enough!
Under the white marble steps, King Li, who was tied up, with a bruised nose and a swollen face, and a ball of cloth stuffed in his mouth, also looked shocked at this moment, his heart was beating wildly, and he thought to himself:
"It seems that I have really misjudged this. King Tian's methods are so ruthless... It's unbelievable. Isn't he willing to kill himself? This is really... ruthless and cruel, and cruel and scary. I’m so stunned that I’m afraid of losing my life!”
…
The huge square quickly returned to silence after a period of commotion.
Everyone's eyes were focused on King Tian.
I saw that King Tian's face was angry and cruel, his eyes were bloodshot, his fists were clenched, and his whole body was trembling.
He scanned the crowd and roared again:
"Tonight, everyone here, including me, will die!"
Now, when everyone heard this again, they no longer had the intention to relax or laugh.
This King Tian is usually so impeccable, but he is so cruel and domineering at the critical moment?
If he doesn't get the throne, he'll just kill everyone! ?
This kind of means and courage are truly unparalleled.
At this time, Su Xian, Chen Keyan, Yang Zhilan, Zhou Wei, as well as the ministers and generals present, all thought of it together -
To capture King Tian, no matter what means are used, we must prevent the explosion of the divine thunder in the underground secret passage.
Otherwise, everyone will be doomed!
However, King Tian seemed to have expected this. As soon as the soldiers made any movement, he shouted loudly:
"No one is allowed to move. Anyone who dares to take a step forward will be killed immediately by thousands of arrows. If I die, you can no longer stop the explosion of the underground divine thunder!"
After saying this, the soldiers and generals who were ready to move immediately stopped where they were and did not dare to act rashly.
Su Xian also quickly grabbed Yang Zhilan and Zhou Wei who were about to take action, and shook his head at them.
Just listen to King Tian continue to say:
"Outside the palace, in a hidden place, there are several soldiers lying in wait. They have fire in their hands, and they also have the fuse to detonate the underground divine thunder."
"Within a quarter of an hour, if there is no order from me, they will light the fuse..."
"Don't move! If anyone dares to take a step or spread the news to the outside world, the hundreds of sharp arrows behind me will kill me instantly!"
"If the king dies, these personal guards will transmit the message to the outside world at the same time. After the people outside receive the message, they will immediately light the fuse! Everyone will die together!"
"..."
Only then did everyone understand.
Why did King Tian's more than one hundred personal guards rebel and point their crossbows at King Tian himself?
It turns out that was his intention——
If anyone moves, the guards behind King Tian will immediately release arrows. There are more than a hundred sharp arrows. In addition, the guards are arranged in a semi-elliptical shape and are scattered. Even if there are super masters such as Yang Zhilan and Zhou Wei on the scene, It was impossible to save King Tian at that moment.
It is even more impossible to prevent more than a hundred personal guards from transmitting information to the outside world at the same time.
There was no time.
If there were only a dozen people, Yang Zhilan might be able to do it, but King Tian had more than a hundred personal guards, which would be troublesome.
Suddenly, everyone was captured by King Tian.
Don't move around. If you do, you will die immediately. It's even more impossible to stay still, because after a quarter of an hour, the underground divine thunder will still be ignited.
There is almost no solution to this situation.
Not to mention other people, even Su Xian frowned.
Damn it!
Could it be that Su Xian, the wise captain of the Great Liang Dynasty, would be killed here tonight?
This King Tian has played too much. If there is a chance in the future, Su Xian will definitely teach him a lesson and let him know why the flowers are so red, otherwise he will not be relieved.
"My prince..."
After Princess Tian cried out, her heart seemed to be in sharp pain, and she suddenly fell to the ground, clutching her heart.
Chen Keyan was still supporting her, but she did not lift her up. Instead, she slowly let her lie on the ground. Then, Chen Keyan stood up, looked at King Tian who was three feet away, and said loudly:
"The throne will be returned to you. After tonight, I will leave Nanchen and will never set foot on Nanchen's land again for the rest of my life. If you violate this oath, I will die of a sudden illness."
"You know, I have been keeping my word since I was a child. There are too many innocent people here. Do you really want to see your mother-in-law bombed to pieces?"
"Hurry up and give the order, otherwise it will be too late!"
"..."
When things got to this point, everyone could only shake their heads secretly.
Including those ministers who swore to follow Chen Keyan to the death.
Su Xian also sighed slightly in his heart:
"The matter has come to this, and there is no other way. It's just that my plan of 'leaving a way out' is completely bankrupt... But that's fine, as long as people are still there."
Just when everyone thought that King Tian had successfully won the throne, they heard King Tian laughing in the sky.
His laughter was filled with misery, regret, desolation, and heartbreaking pain.
When he stopped laughing and looked at everyone coldly and cruelly again, the left hand he had been holding tightly finally relaxed slightly.
Su Xian and others didn't notice that the thing held tightly in King Tian's left hand was a red sachet with three beautiful characters "Zhao Rongyin" embroidered on it.
