Chapter 2235 The Second Prince is dead

Your Highness is drunk!

Your Highness is drunk!

This was the thought that came to everyone's mind after seeing Zhao Ke fall.

"Your Highness!"

Everyone was shouting and yelling, and everyone seemed to be very nervous, but in fact they didn't think much about it. They just drank too much, nothing serious would happen, and they would recover tomorrow after a sleep.

Yuan Ji, Hou Yi and Guan Zhuo also thought so. However, Yuan Ji and Hou Yi immediately came to Zhao Ke's side and prepared to help Zhao Ke up.

"Everyone, His Highness has drunk enough today. He can't drink more. It's better to end this dinner here." Yuan Ji said while helping Zhao Ke.

The protagonists were drunk and unconscious, so there was no need to continue the banquet. They came to the banquet not to eat and drink, but to express their attitude to Zhao Ke. Now the goal has been achieved, and Zhao Ke is also drunk. If it doesn't work, there is no need to stay any longer.

"That's what Yuan Shangshu said."

"His Highness has just come out and needs a good rest. We'd better leave first and let His Highness have a good rest."

"Yes, yes, there are important things to do tomorrow, so we can't disturb His Highness' rest."

...

All the officials on the scene echoed, and everyone understood what the "big event" would be tomorrow. That event was a big event for Yanfeng Country, a big event for Zhao Ke, and a big event for them.

Therefore, there can be no delay in that matter!

After everyone finished speaking, they were ready to walk outside.

"Your Highness, how are you?" Hou Yi asked Zhao Ke in a low voice.

However, Hou Yi's inquiry did not receive any response.

"Your Majesty, you can't drink enough." Hou Yi muttered.

"Hou Shangshu, don't talk nonsense, you don't even look at how much His Highness drank just now." Yuan Ji reminded.

Hou Yi thought about the scene where the other ministers lined up to toast just now, nodded, and said: "I did drink a lot. I guess it will be impossible to get up early tomorrow."

"It doesn't matter if you get up early or not, the overall situation has been decided!" Yuanji glanced at the many officials who were preparing to leave, feeling quite satisfied.

Hou Yi also looked over, with a smile on his face.

Yes, after today's dinner, the overall situation of the Imperial Capital has been decided. Not only Qi Kai secretly joined them, but most of the other officials also chose to join them. Now, no one in the entire Imperial Capital can threaten them.

As for whether I can get up early tomorrow morning, it really doesn't matter anymore.

"But why didn't His Highness respond at all?" Yuanji said with a little doubt.

Even if he was drunk, he shouldn't have no reaction at all. Zhao Ke was terrifyingly quiet at this time.

"etc!"

Just when Hou Yi looked at Zhao Ke with some doubts, Guanzhuo suddenly spoke out. The voice was so loud that it startled everyone. All the officials who were about to leave subconsciously stopped and wondered. He looked at Guanzhuo, wondering what was wrong with him.

Guanzhuo's face was serious, even a little gloomy. He stood up suddenly and walked towards Zhao Ke.

"Guan Shangshu, what's wrong with you?" Yuanji asked doubtfully.

However, Guanzhuo did not answer his words. He just came to stand in front of Zhao Ke, his face now even more ugly.

Yuan Ji felt a little annoyed when he saw Guan Zhuo ignoring him so much. You must know that there were many ministers watching this scene. He was the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. Guan Zhuo's move was undoubtedly not giving him face.

However, they are now in the same camp, and they also need Guanzhuo's support. Therefore, although Yuanji was annoyed in his heart, he did not show it, but looked at Guanzhuo with a slightly unkind look.

"Guan Shangshu, what's wrong with you? Why do you have such a scary expression?" Hou Yi also asked in confusion.

However, Yuan Ji also ignored Hou Yi, but stared at Zhao Ke with his eyes. Then, in the surprised eyes of Yuan Ji and Hou Yi, he slowly extended his finger under Guan Zhuo's nose.

"Guan Shangshu, what are you doing?"

Seeing Guan Zhuo's actions, Yuan Ji suddenly felt a bad feeling in his heart.

Guanzhuo was slightly shocked and said slowly: "Your Highness, he is dead!"

What?

In the quiet hall, Guanzhuo's words clearly reached the ears of everyone present, but their first reaction was whether they heard wrongly. How could Zhao Ke suddenly die when he was fine just now? Even if Zhao Ke did drink a lot just now, it wouldn't kill him.

This is simply unbelievable.

"Guan Shangshu, what are you talking about? Say it again." Yuan Ji looked at Guan Zhuo and asked. He didn't even realize that when he said this, his voice was already trembling a little.

"Guan Shangshu, did I hear it wrong just now? What did you just say?" Hou Yi also looked at Guan Zhuo in shock and asked.

"I said." Guanzhuo did not look at the two of them, but still looked at the motionless Zhao Ke, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, he is dead!"

This time, everyone heard more clearly, and they were all sure that they did not have auditory hallucinations just now, and they did not hear wrongly. What Guan Zhuo said was indeed that Zhao Ke was dead.

But, how is this possible?

No one could accept this. After all, Zhao Ke was fine just now, how could he die suddenly?

"Guan Shangshu, what are you talking about? How could His Highness... possibly be dead?" Yuan Ji said with disbelief on his face.

"Yes, Minister Guan, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say anything." Hou Yi also said: "Especially at this sensitive time, you can't say anything!"

Obviously, Yuanji and Hou Yi didn't believe Guan Zhuo's words, just thinking he was talking nonsense.

And now, it is the critical moment of the fight for the throne. Guan Zhuo's words in public are undoubtedly disturbing the morale of the army, which makes Yuanji and Hou Yi quite dissatisfied. They even suspect that Guan Zhuo has been bribed by some prince, otherwise, how could he do such a thing.

It's obviously just drunkenness, but he actually said it was death, his heart is worthy of death!

Guan Zhuo was not angry. He looked at Yuanji, then at Hou Yi, and said: "The second prince is indeed dead. If you don't believe it, you can take a look."

"Just take a look!" Hou Yi said angrily.

As he said, Hou Yi also stretched his finger under Zhao Ke's nose to explore the situation. Then, his face showed many complex expressions such as shock, confusion, anger, and disbelief.

"How is it?" Yuanji asked.

In fact, when seeing Hou Yi's expression change, Yuan Ji had already guessed the result in his heart, but he still didn't want to believe it. You know, this is a gamble that he has devoted the rest of his life to. Once Zhao Ke really dies, he will be finished.

However, the answer Hou Yi gave pushed him into the abyss.

"The Second Prince is really dead!"
