Chapter 2113 No. N Cannon fodder female supporting role 45

But when Concubine Meihuang came in, the emperor failed to say anything to her and had already passed out again.

This made Queen Zhang sigh in relief.

You must know that the emperor woke up just now, but he frightened her, fearing that things would change.

Fortunately, God was kind to him. Apparently even God couldn't stand what the emperor was doing, so he didn't let the emperor stay awake, but let him pass out again.

This time he fainted and the emperor never woke up.

That night, the emperor died.

Word spread quickly.

Even if there is no official reserve, people who know the matter at the scene are afraid that if the matter is spread out now, it will cause turmoil, and want to hide it, and want to wait until the matter is settled before spreading it out, but such a big matter cannot be concealed, and soon people will Just know that the emperor died.

And as the news of the emperor's death spread, storms began to rise in Beijing.

The people who reacted first were neither Empress Zhang nor Concubine Mei, but the Second Prince and his mother.

The second prince, mother and son relied on the fact that they had people in the Capital Defense Department and the Imperial Guard. They quickly asked their own people in the Capital Defense Department to block the city gate. At the same time, they asked the Imperial Guard to attack the city and prepare to attack it first. He acted aggressively and killed the other princes.

Their power was not the strongest, but they thought that they might be able to strike first. Before others could react, or before they were embarrassed to kill, they might be able to kill others by surprise. , by the time others react, they have succeeded.

Since it was not Concubine Mei Huang's power, An Ran didn't care. After all, she didn't have to support Empress Zhang to rise to power. As long as the person in the position was not the son of Imperial Concubine Mei Huang, or the kind of person who couldn't deal with King Qi, she would do it. It doesn't matter.

——Although the eldest prince does have a good relationship with King Qi, most of the other princes have a good relationship with King Qi. After all, King Qi has no conflict of interest with them, and the Queen Mother loves him, so everyone is naturally willing to be on good terms with him. Fortunately, I can gain some favorability in front of the Queen Mother.

So unless the other party doesn't deal with King Qi, she might take action to avoid causing trouble in the future.

Although the second prince's relationship with Prince Qi was not as good as that of the eldest prince, he was still decent and not hostile to Prince Qi. Therefore, Anron did not take action. Unless they rushed in and prepared to cause trouble for her, she might be able to Will take action.

But it was obvious that although the second prince usually did well to the king, at this moment, his reaction was different.

——Since we are planning to go on a killing spree, naturally no one except our own people can be left alive, so as not to spread rumors outside in the future.

After killing all those who are not their own, they can describe what happened today however they want. For example, the eldest prince, Concubine Meihuang and others were preparing to kill the second prince, but the second prince was forced to do nothing. , had to accept the fight; the people who died were killed by other people, not the second prince.

Although many people in high positions have blood on their hands, they also want a good reputation. At this time, some insiders who are not from their own side cannot be kept. This is why the second prince is planning to remove his own people. The reason why he is not prepared to stay alive in the palace.

Of course, that doesn't mean killing everyone in the palace, that would be unrealistic, but anyone who saw him killing those princes would be killed.

Among these people, naturally included King Qi and An Ran. After all, the emperor passed away at this moment, and An Ran and King Qi did not leave. They kept vigil in the palace, and then the eldest prince and others also kept vigil here.

Since there were many princes at the same scene as King Qi and An Ran, and these princes were all people who must be killed, the second prince naturally had no choice but to decide to kill King Qi and An Ran as well, otherwise there would be no future Easy to handle.

Fortunately, the Queen Mother is not here, otherwise the Second Prince might even be planning to attack the Queen Mother.

It's normal for the Queen Mother not to be here - after the emperor's death, she grieved excessively. Even though An Ran protected her heart, she still felt unwell and was not here. Instead, she was persuaded by everyone to rest temporarily in Cining Palace. .

King Qi was shocked when he saw the second prince coming in with a group of people carrying a sword with blood still dripping on it. He immediately said: "Second prince, what are you doing?"

The second prince smiled lightly and said: "The emperor asked if this was stupid, so he naturally punished the traitor."

King Qi heard that his tone was not as attentive as usual, but full of ridicule. He couldn't help but feel unhappy and sneered: "Who is the rebel?"

The second prince smiled and said: "Not now, just stay for a while."

Kill them all, isn't it just that he can say whatever he wants?

So they discussed it before taking action. The purpose of this action was to kill the "rebellious" - although they themselves were the rebellious, others were just keeping vigil here, and they came to kill people, but that didn't stop them from doing this. Excuse, after killing everyone in the future, this excuse will naturally be confirmed, so what are you afraid of?

The reason why the second prince came to kill people with his sword in person was mainly because he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to brush up his qualifications. You must know that his prestige was not as good as that of the first prince before. If he did not show up during the whole battle to seize the throne, what would happen to him? He stayed behind and commanded together with his mother and concubine. People who didn't know better thought it was the credit of his mother and concubine and his maternal family. Since he didn't have much contact with him, they thought he was incompetent. He would have become the emperor by then. People would not obey him, so in order to increase his presence in front of everyone, he took action personally today, thinking that if he took action personally, the credit for this battle to win the throne would be his. No one else can take it away.

And those ministers, seeing that they are so courageous, they will probably be more honest when they take the throne in the future - they are afraid that if they are not honest, they will be beheaded - which is also a good thing for the newly ascended to the throne, so that he can quickly get started with state affairs.

At this time, King Qi heard what the second prince said. He was not stupid, so he naturally heard the implication of this guy's words. He couldn't help but became furious and said: "I have no conflict with you, right? You want to kill me too?!"

The second prince sighed and said: "It's also the emperor's bad luck. If you were not there when my father passed out, but were in the palace, you would definitely not be able to enter the palace now, and you wouldn't have seen all this." Well, the nephew will not cause trouble to the emperor, but now that the emperor knows everything, the nephew naturally cannot keep the emperor alive."

After hearing this, King Qi couldn't help but get angry and said: "You are quite confident and feel that you can definitely deal with us people. I think if you can't deal with us, how can you do this under the emperor's control?" After the collapse, not only did he not keep vigil, but he also went on a killing spree, what kind of end will he end up with in the end!"

Although this group of people was full of murderous intent and the swords in their hands were dripping with blood. Most people had been silent for a long time and did not dare to say anything for fear of being the first to be stabbed. However, King Qi was an out-of-the-box character and would not be afraid of this and continued to scold him. .
