Chapter 156 Let's Die Together
The emperor's words made the third prince understand everything instantly.
He thought his plan was perfect, but in fact it had long been under the control of the emperor. Every step he took was watched by the emperor, who had even thought of a response plan.
The emperor stared at the third prince, his face expressionless, but his tone full of sarcasm:
"I used to think you were quite sensible, but I didn't expect you to be so bold that you even dared to commit treason. As a father and son, I wanted to wait for you to stop, but I never thought you would become even more outrageous."
"I am not afraid to tell you that every one of your plans has been abandoned by me. Liu Ben is my confidant, and he was bribed by you to confuse you. The 100,000 troops of Dingbei Marquis have long been trapped outside the capital. Unless they force their way in without orders, there will be no changes in the capital."
"As for your Yue family and your mother's family, they participated in the rebellion and committed serious crimes. I will never forgive them easily!"
The capital city was the administrative center of the Dayin Dynasty. The Third Prince was well aware of how strong the city walls were and how strict the guards were. Therefore, Marquis Dingbei's 100,000 troops could not get in, not even by force.
In other words, all his plans were ruined.
But at this moment, Fang Ruoruo whispered a few words in the Third Prince's ear, and the Third Prince's eyes immediately sparkled, and he shouted:
"Even if all my arrangements were scrapped by my father, so what? At least the Princess Mansion made the right move!"
"Now, all the civil and military officials and their families have been poisoned. I am the only one who has the antidote for this poison. If all the civil and military officials in the court are willing to support me as the emperor, I will give you the antidote."
"If everyone is unwilling, then die with me! I want to see how this country and this court will function if all the officials of the Dayin Dynasty die!"
The Third Prince's voice was so loud that many people in the yard outside heard it.
Dingbei Hou and Fang Zhenghua looked at each other, and regardless of being detained by the Imperial Guards, they both spoke up to persuade everyone -
"My fellow officers, what difference does it make to you who is the emperor? For the sake of your own lives, I advise you to choose carefully, so as not to bring trouble to your entire family!"
"Yes, now that things have come to this, why don't you all follow me and support His Majesty the Third Prince to ascend the throne!"
"As long as everyone chooses the Third Prince and keeps silent about what happened today, the court of the Dayin Dynasty will remain the same as before, with only a new emperor!"
"The second princess got married, and assassins from Ye State attacked. His Majesty was assassinated and died on the spot. The queen was too frightened and the fetus was born prematurely, resulting in two deaths. Before his majesty passed away, he passed the throne to the third prince. This is the truth of the whole thing!"
As Marquis Dingbei and Fang Zhenghua talked back and forth, some of the timid ministers began to be tempted.
However, although everyone was moved, no one stood up.
Although the Third Prince controlled them with poison, there were still Royal Guards who had not been poisoned at the scene. They were the Emperor’s confidants!
If they did not stand up, and wait for the emperor to deal with the third prince, maybe they could find an imperial physician to detoxify them. But if they followed the third prince's wishes and turned against him now, they would probably die under the sword of the imperial guards in the next second.
One is to die immediately, the other is to have a chance to live.
The court officials are not stupid and they definitely know how to choose.
Therefore, no matter how much Dingbei Hou and Fang Zhenghua talked, no one agreed with them.
The Third Prince looked at this scene, and the expression on his face changed from joy and anticipation to disbelief. He couldn't believe that no one supported him, even the people who had secretly supported him did not move.
He asked loudly:
"Aren't you afraid of death? If I die, there will be no one to give you the antidote!"
"Why should I fear death? If a disloyal, unfilial, unkind and unjust person like you were allowed to ascend the throne as you wished, the entire Dayin Dynasty would be finished!" The speaker was Cui Yuwei.
Although he was a Hanlin editor and held a low position, he came to the wedding because he was a good friend of Liu Luping, and was able to sit at the front table for relatives and friends.
Cui Yuwei also drank the tea from the princess's mansion and was poisoned and fell to the ground, but this did not prevent him from being extremely sarcastic towards the third prince.
The Third Prince's face darkened after hearing these words. He said angrily:
"You are looking for death! Do you know that the poison I used is called Three Days Heartbroken Powder? If there is no antidote within three days, your intestines will be pierced and your stomach will rot and you will die. Cui Yuwei, you have studied hard for ten years, but you have only been an official for three months. You don't want to go to hell now, do you?"
"For a real man, death can be as light as a feather or as heavy as Mount Tai. If I die for your majesty and for the country and people of the Dayin Dynasty, then I can say that I died a worthy death!" Cui Yuwei said righteously.
Seeing that Cui Yuwei refused to budge and the court officials did not support him, the Third Prince decided to throw in the towel:
"Okay, then you all go to hell!"
Fang Ruoruo saw that threatening with poison didn't work, and she became dejected. She sat on the ground with a big belly and a dull look in her eyes.
It seems that no one expected how things would come to this point, with dead ends everywhere.
The court officials in the courtyard were terrified by the words of the Third Prince. The Prime Minister shamelessly asked the Emperor:
"Your Majesty, it's not that I am afraid of death, but the guests here include most of my colleagues in the court. If they are really killed by this poison, there will be no one in the court, and the foundation of the country will be unstable, which will be a great disaster!"
"I beg the Emperor to summon the imperial physician to treat our colleagues!"
The Prime Minister's voice trembled slightly. He might not be afraid of death, but he was really afraid that the entire court would be destroyed.
This third prince is too cruel.
At this time, Shi Lidie walked out of the crowd.
She watched the show for a long time, seeing the Third Prince and Fang Ruoruo go from being arrogant to being destitute, from being bossy to being prisoners, and from being sure of victory to becoming crazy.
So, she stood up without hesitation and chose to give them two more blows:
"What a joke, Third Prince! I know a little bit about medicine, and I have just checked it. The poison you used is just ordinary cartilage powder, not an intestinal poison at all."
Shi Lidie had already checked it with the basic disease detector. How could she really watch these court officials die of poisoning? So she had to prepare in advance.
But she didn't expect that the so-called poison was just a lie from the Third Prince, so she continued:
"Before you set up this scheme, you must have wanted to keep the adults working for you. How could you possibly poison them? You just walked into a dead end with no way out, so you lied and cheated people, trying to take a gamble and use the human weakness of fear of death to achieve your goal."
"Let me guess, this idea was given to you by Fang Ruoruo, right? Now that no one is fooled, are you feeling desperate?"
Fang Ruoruo heard Shi Lidie's voice, slowly raised her head, looked at her with silent eyes, and then burst out with overwhelming hatred, accusing like crying blood:
"It's you! Shi Lidie, it's all your fault! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have come to this point!"
