After I captured the wrong male lead, I broke off the engagement and married the villain
Chapter 248 Reporting
Xiao Heyun's legs gradually got better.
He also specifically told the emperor that he would be able to stand up soon.
After this news spread, the wind direction in the court changed again.
Moreover, King Li was becoming more and more impatient.
That day, Xiao Heyun walked into the imperial study on crutches and saluted the emperor.
"Why aren't you in a wheelchair?"
"Madam Qingyi said that my legs needed exercise, so I didn't sit down."
The emperor nodded, his expression expressionless.
"Sit down, what do you want to see me for today?"
Xiao Heyun thought for a moment and said, "I am here to file a complaint."
"Oh?"
The emperor seemed a little confused and looked very puzzled.
Not long after, Xiao Heyun took out a document: "Father, please read this."
The emperor took the thing and took a look at it, then his expression became filled with uncontrollable anger.
"Is this true?"
"I have evidence for every single thing, and...it's right before my eyes. If you want to see it, I will call someone over right away."
The emperor held the document under his hand, his relatively clear face looking gloomy.
"I have really spoiled him. Apart from other things, he colluded with foreign tribes and secretly harmed the Marquis. Every one of these crimes should be dealt with immediately!"
Although he said so, he didn't say too much.
Xiao Heyun did not produce evidence before, but took action now. It is hard not to doubt his motives.
For example...he wanted to kick out King Li and become the crown prince himself.
Xiao Weiye is still young and cannot compete with him, a prince who once led troops into battle.
Besides, if he really had no opponent, would he turn his attention to me?
After all, his leg is almost healed.
Therefore, under such suspicion, the emperor said: "Don't make this matter public. I...will investigate it carefully."
"Yes, my father is wise and will definitely not let the people suffer unjust accusations."
His reaction was already within Xiao Heyun's expectations.
The emperor was an extremely suspicious person. He was suspicious of everything others did, let alone him, a prince who was not well-received.
But now it seems that everything is under my control.
Since he doesn't plan to make a big fuss about it, that's all the better.
········
"You leave first. I will ask the Jinwu Guards to investigate this matter."
"Yes, Father."
After Xiao Heyun came out of the palace, he asked someone to leak the news to King Li.
"What did you say?"
"Xiao Heyun has given your Majesty the evidence of our collusion with Xisha. Your Majesty, we must make a decision soon!"
The people below were complaining bitterly. If they didn't act quickly, they would probably all die.
King Li's face turned blue with anger: "Xiao Heyun is a beast!"
He smashed the teacup in his hand and stood up: "The old man hasn't punished Xiao Heyun yet, which means he is still wary of Xiao Heyun. We must take the initiative as soon as possible."
After saying this, everyone made a decision.
That night, King Li met with the emperor on official business.
The emperor punished him by making him kneel outside for an unknown amount of time before letting him in.
Later, all we knew was that the emperor seemed to be furious, and then he actually had a stroke and fainted.
·······
As a result, the court was in chaos. Now that the crown prince had not been appointed, the question became who would be the regent.
King Li himself wanted to go, but the others attacked him.
The two sides fought fiercely, and the emperor was still in a coma and had not woken up.
In the evening, Xiao Heyun returned home as usual.
"Your Majesty, the diagnosis from His Majesty has come out."
Xiao Heyun said: "Oh?"
"It's poison. After drinking it, the symptoms are like a stroke, but there's no cure. You can only drag it to death."
Xiao Heyun sneered, his voice carrying an indescribable chill: "How funny! Did the old man ever think that this would be the outcome of his attempt to control me?"
"Who made King Li so desperate? He didn't even think about it. King Li dared to collude with foreign enemies. It's just regicide. What else can he not do?"
Xiao Heyun quite agreed with this.
"Yes, it's a pity that he could have survived, but because he was afraid that my leg would heal, he was reluctant to take down King Li."
So, he was plotted against by King Li.
That night, King Li met His Majesty and gave him tea, but he was completely unprepared and was drugged.
Now his life and death are in the hands of others, which is probably a feeling that the current emperor has never experienced before.
"Humph, who made him blind? The prince is so outstanding, but he refused to take a second look. Now what? It's fate."
Xiao Heyun didn't care. He had long since given up hope for any feelings towards the royal family.
So now that King Li was killing the king, he didn't feel anything at all.
But...if the emperor has to die, it should be at his hands.
This monarch, his father, has been suppressing, threatening and ignoring him since he was a beast!
"How is the situation in the palace?"
Li Jin said: "Prince Li is recruiting soldiers and the Imperial Guards have fallen into his hands."
The commander didn't know what was going on with the emperor, but if his majesty couldn't wake up, now was the time to take sides.
If the bet is won, it would be a great achievement for the whole family to benefit from it.
No one is unwilling.
"That's great. Let's send a message to the North and ask them to come to the rescue."
Xiao Heyun sat in the dim light, his tall and slender body looked like some powerful evil god in the darkness, carrying a shocking power.
He calculated every person in Kyoto and used himself as a chess piece, throwing himself into the battlefield.
·······
"The message has been sent out. I believe there will be some action soon. But...what do you think about Hongzhou?"
Xiao Heyun rubbed his fingertips, still hesitating.
"Your Majesty, you did all this just to make the girl make up her mind, do you regret it now?"
Xiao Heyun said: "I just don't know if I am doing the right thing."
He rarely felt doubtful, but now he was in a dilemma.
"No matter what, once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. If we stop now, we will be trampled to pieces by the troops from all sides. We will have no chance to regret."
Li Jin was right. There was not only himself around him, but also so many subordinates and followers.
If he stops because of this, all will be lost.
Sometimes, he couldn't fully control the situation.
Many times, it only takes one hand to make it all happen, but the subsequent development is not something everyone can predict.
········
"So be it."
He sighed silently, and his expression could not be seen clearly in the darkness.
But Li Jin inexplicably felt that the prince seemed very sad.
But why?
Everything was obviously going to end and he would have everything he wanted, so why was it still like this?
He didn't understand.
