Almost all those who fell in the pool of blood were the people brought by Li Qiming.

The next second this group of people rushed into the palace, Emperor Qitai waved his hand again, and another group of guards with swords rushed in.

Li Qiming looked at the leader in disbelief. The leader turned out to be Gu Yu, who had already returned home.

Gu Yu was seen waving the long sword in his hand, and with three or two swords, he knocked down one of the soldiers he had brought.

Li Qiming stared at Gu Yu for a long time, and then he realized that he had fallen into a trap.

"Hahahaha... As expected, as expected, you have never believed me." Li Qiming pointed at Emperor Qitai and shouted loudly, "Otherwise, how could it be possible that I had just made a move, but you had already taken complete precautions!"

Emperor Qitai laughed angrily when he heard this: "You are a traitor who intends to kill your father and king, but you still blame others for being defensive and preventing you from succeeding?"

At the same time, Li Wenkang, dressed in military uniform, also walked into the yard with several of his men.

When passing by Li Qiming, Li Wenkang stopped and looked at him twice, then walked into the hall, stepped over many corpses on the ground, and knelt straight in front of Emperor Qitai.

"Your Majesty, all the rebels outside the palace gate have surrendered, and the leading rebel generals have also been captured and await your Majesty's punishment."

"Okay." Emperor Qitai stood up from the throne and stepped forward to help Li Wenkang up. Then he looked at Li Qiming with his hands behind his back and squinted his eyes, "What else do you have to say."

Unexpectedly, Li Qiming laughed wildly when he heard this: "Hahahahahahaha... Father, you don't really think I only have this ability, do you? I have already sent people out of the city to mobilize troops, and I told them that as long as I am not safe If it happens, then any of them can enter the capital at will, and whoever avenges me will take the throne."

"Rebellious son." Emperor Qitai grabbed the sword of the imperial guard and was about to slash at Li Qiming.

Li Qiming not only did not hide, but raised his neck at Emperor Qitai: "Come on, chop here. Father, how about we, father and son, and everyone in this imperial city be buried with us father and son today?"

Emperor Qitai was so angry that he stabbed down Li Qiming's neck, but stopped hard when the knife was close to Li Qiming's neck. He wanted to kill his son himself, but he couldn't do it.

At this time, another man wearing armor and military uniform walked into the courtyard, and still walked straight to Emperor Qitai and knelt down.

"To inform my father, most of the rebels outside the city have been persuaded to surrender. The remaining ones who refused to surrender, Marquis Ning Guo, has personally led troops to pursue them."

After Qi Jin finished speaking, before Emperor Qitai could respond, everyone heard a "pop" and saw Li Qiming collapse on the ground.

"How is it possible, how is it possible!"

Emperor Qitai looked at this stupid, self-righteous and smart son with undisguised disappointment in his eyes: "Do you really think that once you become the prince, the world will be yours? Do you really think that you will take control of the affairs of the court after I leave them alone?" Destroyed the entire Chongqing Dynasty? If you really have a complete plan to take me down, I will be happy that you are a promising person."

Li Qiming had a look of defeat on his face, his lips were squirming but he couldn't utter a single word.

Emperor Qitai sneered: "You are really just like your biological mother, and you will do some unseemly things."

Li Qiming's eyes turned red and he glared at Emperor Qitai angrily: "You can scold me, but why insult my mother, a dead person!"

"Am I insulting your mother? Okay, okay! I originally thought that the grievances of the previous generation should not be implicated in your next generation, but instead you have developed a character like yours that does not distinguish between right and wrong and does not know the so-called." Emperor Qitai's anger surged.

"Then I might as well tell you that I personally ordered the execution of your entire mother clan. They dared to conspire to assassinate a group of imperial ministers who were sent by me to measure the land in the south of the Yangtze River, including Zi Cong's biological father."

Emperor Qitai looked at Gu Yu with apologetic eyes: "Even Zi Cong's father was assassinated by assassins just after he stepped out of the capital. That was my first decree when I first ascended the throne. They do not regard the laws of the imperial court and me. In your eyes, do you think they should be killed or not?"

This was the first time that Gu Yu heard the truth about his father's death. He was stunned on the spot, never thinking that the truth he had been searching for for so long would be like this.

Emperor Qitai took a deep look at Gu Yu, then turned to point at Li Qiming, who was still angry: "And your mother and concubine have repeatedly murdered concubines and heirs in the palace. These evidences are still stored in the Zongren Mansion. Li Dequan , you go to the Zongren Mansion and get all the evidence so that he can take a good look at it."

Some vague fragments flashed through Li Qiming's mind. He sat back on the ground and shook his head: "I don't believe it, I don't believe it, I don't believe it!"

Emperor Qitai frowned and shook his head: "I gave birth to a beast like you!"

He turned to look at Qi Jin, and the hand holding the long knife pointed at Li Qiming on the ground: "If you are like this incompetent in the future, I will never be soft-hearted a second time."

Qi Jin knelt on the ground and kowtowed solemnly to Emperor Qitai: "My son, I will obey the teachings of my father."

Emperor Qitai nodded and glanced at Li Qiming on the ground: "As for you! You forced the palace to rebel and intended to murder your father. You should have thought about what would happen if you failed."

Li Qiming finally panicked. He knelt at the feet of Emperor Qitai and hugged his legs, begging frantically for mercy: "Father, I was wrong. Father, please give your son another chance. My son will never dare to do it again." , Father, please Father."

"It's him, it's them, it's them who framed the son. They were the ones who instigated the relationship between our father and son and forced the son to do these things." Li Qiming pointed at Gu Yu and others.

Emperor Qitai kicked Li Qiming away who was holding his feet. Looking at Li Qiming who was kneeling and begging for mercy, his eyes became more and more impatient: "If you don't want to do it yourself, it will be useless for anyone to force you with a knife. Now that things have failed, you still can’t afford to lose?”

Emperor Qitai handed the knife in his hand to Qi Jin: "This matter and all subsequent matters will be left to you to handle. If nothing happens, please retreat first."

Qi Jin took the long sword and said, "Yes."

"Also." Emperor Qitai waved his finger, "It's so smoky, please clean up the ground before leaving."

Qi Jin nodded slightly towards Li Wenkang, who was standing behind Emperor Qitai, and Li Wenkang immediately called his men to work.

A group of people quickly moved the body out. Immediately, a servant brought water and the hall was cleaned in less than half a quarter of an hour.

Li Wenkang reached out and patted Gu Yu, who was still stunned, and sighed: "It's time to go."

The assassination of the imperial minister was a major case. Even Li Wenkang, who was still in the border town and had little information at the time, knew about it immediately.

At that time, His Majesty was so angry that all those involved were sentenced to death, and the mastermind implicated the nine tribes.

However, I didn't expect that among the imperial ministers, there would be Zi Cong's father, and Zi Cong seemed to have just learned the truth about his father's death.

Gu Yu gave Li Wenkang an ugly smile. He had thought of thousands of reasons for his father's death, but he never expected that it would be this case.

Even not long ago, in order to get more evidence of Li Qiming's crimes, he read through the case files again. It turned out that the reason why he had not found out the truth about his father's death all these years was because the emperor deliberately concealed it.

He looked at Li Qiming, who was being escorted farther and farther away but still shouting for the emperor to spare his life, and couldn't help but feel funny. This was probably the karma and retribution mentioned in Buddhism, right?

Gu Yu stepped forward and prepared to leave with everyone.

Emperor Qitai suddenly called out to him: "Zicong, please stay. I have something to say to you."
