But it didn't go as Lin Zijin wished, the man was stopped by the guards standing beside him, he was timid and didn't dare to make too much trouble, so he followed the team peacefully.

Lin Zijin didn't put all his bets on one person. In the past few days, he kept in mind the secrets of the officials around the third prince. Lin Zijin wanted to make them disintegrate from the inside.

As the team walked to the sacrificial altar, it was a huge circular stone altar with a pile of torches on it. According to the custom, the priests were all veiled and wearing cloaks, standing around the pyre, chanting The scriptures pray for blessings for the coming year. Hatake got off the sedan chair and walked to the stone chair carved with flying totems on the altar. That was the place where the king of Liufeng was allowed to sit. go up.

"Father is seriously ill today and can no longer move around. I hereby issue an edict to announce to the world that I, Hatake, will be the next King Liufeng!"

He took out the forged imperial decree and handed it to the high priest next to him, and that person had long been bought by Hatake to cooperate with him in performing the enthronement drama.In the eyes of the common people, the priests are sacred and inviolable existences, and the king who can be recognized by them is the one chosen by God, so they all knelt down and worshiped the new dynasty.

"My king's longevity is as good as the sky!"

The shouts of the people were loud, and the priest on the stage continued the sacrificial feast, picked up the torch that was lit aside, and was about to light the fire, but at this moment, another priest suddenly grabbed the torch and threw it at Banner, but he reacted Extremely fast, he quickly got up to dodge, and the torch only hit the stone chair.

"what are you doing?!"

"In order to sit on the throne, you killed your brother and deceived your father. You are so rebellious, and you still want to be king?!"

Hatake had already taken the High Priest under his command. It stands to reason that the High Priest should arrange all his subordinates to be his own talents, but why did someone suddenly rebel at this time?

"Who are you? How dare you mix with the priests!"

"Hmph, I'm here for revenge!"

The priest took off his cloak and veil, revealing a face that surprised Hatake.

"...Brother Emperor?!"

"Hahaha, you actually know that I am your imperial brother?"

"This is impossible! I clearly killed you with my own hands!"

As soon as Qi Mude's words came out, the people were in an uproar, and they attacked their elder brother. How could Liufeng be handed over to him if he could do such an act of disapproval?

"You tyrant! You sent someone to investigate us, so you have to kill us one day to be at ease?!"

Suddenly an official under the altar stood up and yelled at Qi Mude. Ever since he heard Lin Zijin's provocative words to him, he has been uneasy, and has been wanting to ask clearly. The appearance of the eldest prince has shaken people's hearts At this time, the third prince admits that killing his elder brother will definitely not be accepted by the people, so why not take this opportunity to overthrow him and establish a new king!

Hatake, who was still a little flustered at first, suddenly realized after hearing these words that he had been tricked. He has always hired people without suspicion, and suspected people are not used. How could he send people to investigate? Someone must be in the way!So Hatake had to pull out the long knife of the guard on the side, and stabbed straight at the First Prince.

After seeing clearly the approaching situation, the First Prince immediately drew out the saber hidden under the cloak, and went head-on without any timidity.

After exchanging two or three moves, Hatake discovered the clues. The real eldest prince's martial arts are mediocre. So skillful with the sword?In order to verify the doubts in his heart, Hatake began to attack the opponent's face with moves. He suspected that the person in front of him was just an assassin wearing a big emperor's brother's mask.

Finally, after finding out the opponent's flaw, Hatake had to hit the opponent's life gate directly, and because the opponent dodged in time, he only scratched his face, but he also followed Hatake's will.Sure enough, as he expected, no blood flowed from the scratched place.

"Disguise? Who are you?!"

"Hmph, I'm such an unknown person, I don't deserve to be remembered by the third prince, so let's not tell."

Seeing that the disguise was broken, the man tore off the mask, it was Lin Zijin.Hatake had never seen him before, only knew that he was an assassin, but he didn't know who sent him, but no matter who it was, anyone who blocked his way to the throne would die!Not to mention the villain in front of him who lied to himself!In an instant, Hatake's eyes turned red, and he slashed at Lin Zijin like crazy. Lin Zijin caught the move, and after dealing with him for a few moves, he suddenly felt pain in his abdomen. It would be more painful than the day before, he knew it was the result of the spread of toxicity, so he didn't mention it to anyone, but in this master's fight, a single distraction could be fatal.

Lin Zijin's mere meal gave Hatake a chance to strike. He seized the opportunity and swung his knife at Lin Zijin.

"Zijin!!!"

When Kui Lang rushed over, he happened to see Lin Zijin being stabbed, and his heart was aroused with infinite anger, as if he was going to break through his body and tear the flag tree in two. He was about to go crazy, and drew out his sword After rushing up to the altar, Banner saw that he was approaching menacingly, besides, he had exhausted his energy fighting Lin Zijin just now, Kui Lang was not sure that he would win this time, so he turned around and fled backwards, but was surrounded The common people and officials blocked the way, and when he turned his head, Kui Lang was in front of him, and he felt his heart being pierced by a sword. It was obvious that the throne was about to be obtained, but now it fell short!But Hatake was too weak to struggle and fell to the ground.

"Zijin, are you alright?!"

Kui Lang hurriedly supported Lin Zijin who was kneeling on the ground, supporting his body with his sword.

"It's okay, it's okay...the stabbing wasn't deep."

"I'll take you to the doctor!"

"Don't you still want to receive the order?"

King Liufeng also came with Kui Lang. After Lin Zijin met Kui Lang on the street, because Wu Muya's disguise technique is very good, he asked her to make himself the eldest prince's diaper and then went to sacrifice to him. Qi Mude's crimes were exposed on the stage, while Kui Lang went to fetch King Liufeng and re-established the king in front of the people.

"The king is here! It's the king!"

When the people saw the appearance of King Liufeng, they were very excited. They would not be ruled by a tyrant, and the world would return to peace.

"Father, brother is gone."

Wu Muya whispered to the king on the side, originally planned to pass on the throne to him today, but no one was there, so the ceremony could not be held, what did he think of this sacred sacrifice? !That's all, for the sake of his meritorious service, let's hold the enthronement ceremony another day.

"I, King Liufeng, hereby declare that the next king will be taken over by Kui Lang! Since the priest colluded with the rebel party, this matter needs to be investigated, and the enthronement will be discussed at another day!"

"Long live my king!!"

The people all cheered out.

Since the last time when she recalled the peaceful appearance of the past years, the empress dowager knew that she was no match for this deepest thought in her heart. For so many years, she didn't want to, but she didn't dare to think about it, because she knew that once she recalled it, all The original vows will erode one's heart like a flood.She has never let go of this incomprehensible suffering, but she has been deceiving herself and others.

The bamboo forest in the mountains is silent, and the new buds and green leaves in spring are not only fragrant, but also fall to the ground, paving a way to welcome guests.

"Did you come to me for an antidote?"

Meihua stood in the bamboo forest, the bamboo leaves were blown by the wind and fell like rain, leaving only a piece of snow-white hair that refused to leave.

"Yes."

"For your son? Or for yourself? Oh, no matter what, if you come, I will give you the antidote as promised."

"Why do you want me to come in person?"

"I just wanted to see you one last time."
