No one answered his words, and just when the servant couldn't help but want to ask another question, a voice suddenly came to mind in the quiet inner hall.

Except for Emperor Kang Ping, Eunuch Gao and the servants all turned their eyes to Emperor Kang Ping subconsciously, only to see Emperor Kang Ping half lying on the bed, with his hands on the quilt, and did not pull the rope tied with the golden bell beside the bed, that is to say The golden bell was not caused by Emperor Kang Ping.

In addition to Emperor Kangping's bed, there is a golden bell in the inner hall.

The servant keenly sensed that something was wrong, and as soon as he moved his footsteps, he was about to report to the outside of the hall, but when he turned around, Eunuch Gao quickly grabbed an ornament and knocked him out.

The servant fainted, and there were no other people in the hall. Emperor Kang Ping didn't have to worry anymore, he glanced at Eunuch Gao, and said: "After I ascended the throne, this Hall of Mental Cultivation was repaired for a while, and I dug it at that time. A secret passage, this secret passage leads directly to the outside of the palace, and the people guarding the secret passage are all loyal to me. I have not heard from me for many days when I come here tonight, so I came here to confirm my safety. Don’t be afraid, you are all It's one of our own."

Speaking of which, Emperor Kang Ping commanded Eunuch Gao to turn the mechanism hidden behind the screen. With the sound of the machine amplifier, a secret passage slowly appeared, and several men in black that Eunuch Gao had never seen before came out of the secret passage.

The men in black seemed to have never seen Eunuch Gao, and walked straight in front of Emperor Kang Ping. Their eyes turned red when they saw Emperor Kang Ping's miserable situation, and they knelt down on one knee and said that your majesty is suffering. It's because your subordinates are late. Please also ask your majesty. convict.

Now that these few people are Emperor Kang Ping's last cards, Emperor Kang Ping will naturally not convict him of any crimes. He waved his hands to wake up a few people, coughed a few more times, and said slowly: "The secret channel was only used as a last resort. What are you guilty of?" If so? Tell me first, how is the situation outside now? But they are all controlled by that evil obstacle?"

A few men in black stood up, one walked up to Emperor Kang Ping to check his pulse, and the other who seemed to be the leader replied: "Returning to Your Majesty, the whole Chang'an city is now in panic, not only the palace is controlled by the prince, but the palace is also controlled by the prince. In addition, many people who refused to obey the crown prince were put under house arrest, among them were a few ministers who were only loyal to His Majesty, King Qi and King Tai."

The man in black who was speaking paused for a moment, as if hesitating a bit, before continuing after a while: "The subordinates also received the news that King Shun seemed to have been assassinated in the fiefdom, and the poison was quite serious, but fortunately, there was no danger. , it will be fine after a few days of cultivation."

Hearing that King Shun was assassinated, Emperor Kang Ping opened his eyes wide in shock, his expression was distorted in rage, he slapped the bed heavily, and scolded: "This evil son, this evil son, how dare he kill his brother and father?" Killing brothers and fathers, it’s in vain that I have loved him all these years and brought him by my side to teach, but I didn’t want to teach such a wolf-hearted, cold-blooded and ruthless thing, it must be the queen! It must be the queen!”

Emperor Kang Ping was too emotional, and after scolding these few words, he coughed violently again. This time he coughed for a while before he calmed down. Eunuch Gao wanted to persuade him, but he looked into Emperor Kang Ping's eyes, but he didn't dare in the end. Pour a glass of warm water for Emperor Kang Ping to drink.

Having learned this lesson, Emperor Kang Ping did not dare to get angry at will, tried his best to hold back his anger, and said word by word: "This evil animal, I will never give him the throne anyway, want me to pass it on? Go dream."

Emperor Kang Ping vented for a while, and then told the arrangements for tomorrow to the men in black. Naturally, the men in black would not object. Besides, they hadn't heard from Emperor Kang Ping these days, so they vaguely guessed What, although they are not fully prepared now, they are quite sure, at least it is not a problem to sneak attack and capture the prince and queen.

After discussing the arrangements for tomorrow, the next thing that is worrying is Emperor Kang Ping's illness. Even though everyone was prepared, they still couldn't help being shocked after seeing the ugly face of the doctor who treated Emperor Kang Ping. Absolutely.

On the contrary, Emperor Kang Ping looked weak and said weakly: "Why are you crying? I have already known it in my heart after being ill for so long. As long as I can see that beast get what it deserves before I close my eyes, I will rest in peace. .”

These words were too heavy, not only failed to comfort a few people, but made everyone more sad and sad. Emperor Kang Ping was in low spirits and didn't have much thought to comfort them. He just lay on the bed with half-closed eyes as if he was asleep, or thinking about something.

In fact, Emperor Kang Ping was not thinking or falling asleep. He was just looking back on his life in the last part of his life.

He still remembers how he put his father under house arrest and forced him to write the imperial edict, and because of this, he was afraid of the past happening again, so he built such a secret passage, but he didn't expect that what he feared the most was still It happened, whether it is retribution or self-inflicted, Emperor Kang Ping neither regretted it nor regretted it.

What he regrets is that he failed to educate the prince well and restrain the queen well, so that he nourished their ambitions and ended up in this fate.

What he doesn't regret is how he won the throne. After all, he is different from the prince. Although he is also a descendant, he was established as the prince since he was a child, but the first emperor didn't like him, nor his mother, and even the courtiers didn't like it. He, since he was sensible, rumors like Yi Chu have haunted him. He lives in trembling, and every day he will lose his position as the crown prince, and he and his mother will be bullied and died tragically. How heartless and ungrateful he is with his mother, once he really loses the crown prince, the nightmare will come true.

In order to win a breath, or to survive, he can't lose the crown prince. That's why he will do it immediately after his wings are full. He is too afraid of all uncertain things, and he can live one more day in such an environment , is one more day of torture.

Before he ascended the throne, he would think every day, why did his father appoint him as the crown prince and hate him so much? Could it be that he loved him so much that he was willing to choose him as the crown prince?He tried countless times and still couldn't get his father's love, so he thought that if he really became the emperor in the future, he would definitely love the prince he set up by himself so that he wouldn't have to live so hard every day.

Later, he really did, but only now did he realize that his father was wrong, and he was also wrong. They learned how to be an emperor, but they didn't learn how to be a father.

The quiet and restless night passed quickly. The prince presided over the court meeting the next day, and he couldn't wait to bring the courtiers to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Although the courtiers have a faction of the prince, many of them are neutral or only loyal to Emperor Kangping. Moreover, the Hall of Mental Cultivation is so big that it is impossible for everyone to enter. Therefore, the prince only selected some courtiers who followed his example , Let others wait outside the hall.

Because of the important event of passing down the imperial edict, the empress also came naturally. After all these years, she finally waited until today. The dress is a little more elegant, but even so, it is more beautiful than the other concubines who came, so that Emperor Kang Ping wanted to kill this wicked woman immediately.

Just thinking about today's plan, Emperor Kang Ping held back the anger in his chest, showed a sneer, and sarcastically said: "I didn't see you serving near me in the past, but today all of you are here. Now that everyone is here, I don't waste my words." , let’s begin.”

After Emperor Kang Ping finished speaking, he glanced at Eunuch Gao. Eunuch Gao received the look, and immediately spread out what he needed on the imperial case respectfully, and took out the jade seal, and stood beside the imperial case with low eyebrows.

Seeing the jade seal held in the hands of Eunuch Gao, the eyes of the prince, queen and the courtiers of the prince's faction immediately lit up, and they even said bluntly: "Since your majesty has made up his mind, my son/minister obeys orders."

Emperor Kang Ping sneered again, and then slowly opened his mouth. He was weak, so he didn't say much. He only said a few words and then got to the point. As soon as the wind changed, it was said that Jin'an was located in the third son of the emperor.

Hearing these words, everyone in Yangxin Hall thought they had auditory hallucinations, looked at each other for a moment, and then suddenly realized that there was an uproar.

The prince was even angrier and forced to ask: "What is the meaning of the father? The son is the prince. In terms of orthodoxy, how can it be King Shun's turn? Besides, he is already a vassal king, so how can he inherit the rule? Could it be the father?" This illness has made me confused, and I have forgotten the rules of my ancestors."

Naturally, Emperor Kang Ping would not forget, he had expected the prince to ask this question a long time ago, so he glanced at him indifferently, and said slowly: "What about the princes? They are all my princes, and I just cut his fan, As long as I am willing, whoever wants to pass it on will be the emperor."

These words obviously offended the prince's bottom line, his expression became distorted in an instant, and he took two steps forward in a fury. If it wasn't for the presence of other concubines, he would have wanted to make a move. He looked down at Emperor Kang Ping and said every word Said: "according to my son, my father is really sick and confused. Since my father is already unconscious, this imperial edict can be written on my father's behalf."

As he spoke, he walked to the imperial case, stretched out his hand and snatched the pen from the official who was in charge of writing the imperial decree, and was about to change it by himself, but suddenly heard a burst of loudspeaker sound, but in an instant, a group of people wearing black clothes suddenly appeared from behind the screen. Armored soldiers will come.

Almost without waiting for anyone to react, everyone present was taken down, especially the crown prince. Before he dropped his pen, two steel knives were already placed around his neck, and he was dragged from the front of the imperial case abruptly, and he was forced to kneel on the ground.

This scene happened so fast that the prince didn't react until he knelt in front of Emperor Kang Ping. He was shocked and angry, looked at Emperor Kang Ping with hatred and fear, and said in disbelief: "You left a secret way, but you are raising There is a secret passage in the Heart Palace. Did you expect this to happen? This is impossible, this is impossible. I clearly remember that there is no secret passage in the Hall of Mental Cultivation. If there was a secret passage, how could the former emperor be taken away by you back then? The throne? This is impossible! This is impossible!"

At the last moment, the success fell short, not only the crown prince couldn't stand it, but the queen also couldn't accept it, she fell to the ground in a daze, looked at Emperor Kang Ping in shock and fear and said: "You really stayed behind, you really have been prepared for this day I can only hate our husband and wife for more than [-] years, but you have kept me a secret. Sure enough, in your heart, no one can be trusted. heart!"

Facing the Queen's accusation, Emperor Kang Ping was not moved at all, and even sneered, saying: "If I am ungrateful and ungrateful, you killed several of my princes back then, and I would be widowed of you, and the prince, if I hadn't been I prefer you, do you think you will secure the position of crown prince? In terms of means, you are no better than the king of Thailand, and in terms of martial arts, you are no match for the king of Shun Wang Qi, and you don’t even have the capacity to accommodate others! That’s all A useless you, if not for me, what qualifications do you have to be the crown prince."

These words were really a heavy blow, and the amount of information contained in them was too great. Everyone was shocked and digested for a while before they came back to their senses and looked at the queen with a dull expression.

The prince considered himself a dragon and phoenix among men, so he naturally couldn't accept Emperor Kang Ping's words, and subconsciously opened his mouth to refute, but Emperor Kang Ping didn't bother to say anything, he raised an arm with difficulty and waved his hand, and said wearily: "That's all, what's the matter?" Up to now, what is the use of saying more? You all go down, except for the empress and prince who was imprisoned in the cold palace, and a group of ministers in the palace were also put on death row to be dealt with by the new emperor. General Yu Huwei conducts a thorough investigation, but anyone involved in this case is not allowed to intercede, otherwise they will be punished with the same crime!"
