The Young and Vigorous Eighth Prince

The mutiny tonight was inevitable. As for who would take the position, it would depend on who could be more effective. They didn't know which of them had poisoned the Emperor of Yan.

The three princes all suspected the other two princes, but they were also happy to see such a result. No matter who poisoned them, as long as the result was in their favor, it was fine.

The generals of the three mutinies seemed to be not at all surprised by the appearance of the other two parties. In fact, they already had a tacit understanding. The victory or defeat of this mutiny would depend on their own abilities.

The winner will become the final heir of Dayan, and the loser will also lose the qualification. His life or death will then depend on the decision of the winner.

They knew the result would be like this, but they had no choice but to take action. After all, if they didn't take action this time, they would never have another chance.

They didn't know that the manipulator of all this was Lao Liu Jiang Zheng, who wanted them to fight each other. Until now, they still didn't know that the person controlling all this was Jiang Zheng.

Because, in each of their three camps, there are Jiang Zheng's people. As long as those people give the three princes some guidance, it will be enough to make the three princes work for Jiang Zheng.

"Brother, what are you trying to do by bringing troops into the palace like this?!" The fifth prince Jiang Zhou looked at Jiang Yi coldly.

At this point, he looked at the Third Prince Jiang Zhen, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, and said, "Where's Third Brother? Aren't you afraid of disturbing Father by bringing troops into the palace?"

The eldest prince Jiang Yi and the third prince Jiang Zhen looked at Jiang Zhou with a hint of anger in their eyes. At this time, this guy was still pretending to be confused.

"Then I wonder what Fifth Brother's intention is in bringing troops into the palace?" Jiang Yi looked at Jiang Zhou coldly and mocked him.

"Fifth brother, we all know the truth, so there is no need to hide it. Let God decide who wins and who loses today! Whoever breaks into the Taiji Hall first and sees our father will be the winner today." The third brother Jiang Zhen said coldly.

He was too lazy to waste time talking to Jiang Zhou and Jiang Yi. There was only one throne and the three parties all wanted to fight for it. Logically speaking, a big war would start among the three parties.

But the problem is that if there is a three-way war, it will just be a melee and no result will be achieved. Even if he wants to join forces with another party, he has to think about being outmaneuvered by the other party.

Besides, there are 3,000 guards guarding the Taiji Palace. If we start a quarrel here, no one will get any advantage. It is better to fight together first and then deal with it later.

When he made this proposal, he actually wanted to suppress the possibility of a melee among the three parties.

As long as they attacked the Taiji Hall, took Emperor Yan hostage, and forced him to write a will to succeed the throne, with the will in hand, they would be on the side of justice.

"Okay... I agree with Third Brother's proposal. Fifth Brother, what do you think?" Jiang Yi looked at Jiang Zhoudao. Jiang Yi actually wanted to kill this brother who betrayed their alliance the most.

However, for the sake of the greater plan, he endured it temporarily.

After all, the three parties had cooperated not long ago in order to kill Jiang Fan, including setting up a killing trap for Jiang Fan at Hezhou Pass.

The three of them had backup plans for each of the remaining three directions except the Daxi Dynasty, with one person in charge of each direction.

Unfortunately, the killing plan at Hezhou Pass, which Jiang Zhou was responsible for, failed.

But Jiang Fan did not go to the other two directions. Now that Jiang Fan was not in the capital, it was the right time for them to take advantage of the Emperor Yan's serious illness and launch a rebellion.

Especially since Emperor Yan suddenly became seriously ill, they had to launch the attack early, fearing that others would take advantage of them.

They didn't know that there was an invisible hand pushing them forward little by little, leaving them no way to retreat.

"Okay... I agree with what Third Brother says, so let's just rely on our own abilities!" Jiang Zhou shrugged, looking indifferent.

At this time, in front of the Taiji Hall, three thousand guards were guarding around the hall. When Emperor Yan was seriously ill, three thousand guards were dispatched to guard the hall.

These three thousand guards were led by the commander of the guards, Fang Tatian. Originally, the commander of the guards would be held accountable for the assassination incident outside the city gate.

He was dismissed from office because of this, and even many of his guards were implicated. Even though a general of the guards committed suicide at home and left a suicide note taking responsibility for the assassination at the city gate, the guards were not spared from the incident.

Many generals of the Imperial Guard were dismissed from office, and the three princes took this opportunity to put many of their own men into the Imperial Guard.

Even though some of those held accountable were indeed their own, this incident allowed more of their men to take control of the Imperial Guards.

Speaking of which, the most unlucky person among them was the commander of the Imperial Guard, Fang Tatian. However, if Jiang Fan had not pleaded for him, he might have been executed.

The Emperor of Yan not only forgave his sins, but also hid him in the palace and put him in charge of guarding the Taiji Hall of the palace.

However, facing the siege of 15,000 guards, he felt a little insecure. It was too difficult to guard the palace with only 3,000 people.

After the three princes reached a consensus, the eldest prince Jiang Yi looked at Fang Tatian. Although he was surprised by Fang Tatian's appearance, he still said calmly: "Fang Tatian, I will give you one chance. As long as you submit to me and let me enter the Taiji Palace, I will guarantee that you will be made a marquis!"

Jiang Yi wanted to persuade Fang Tatian to surrender, but as soon as he said this, the third and fifth princes also put forward their own conditions. They were also willing to confer a title of nobility on Fang Tatian.

As long as Fang Tatian allows them to enter the Tai Chi Hall, now it depends on which side Fang Tatian will choose.

After all, facing the current situation, with 15,000 guards attacking, there will always be one side that will attack first and even kill all of them.

If Fang Tatian was smarter, he would know what to choose. Because the situation tonight was set, and he could only choose to surrender, except to fight to the death.

In the Taiji Hall, Shadow looked outside with concern. He said to Emperor Yan, "Your Majesty, will Fang Tatian betray us suddenly? If he does, we will be in danger!"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Yan smiled faintly and shook his head, saying, "Fang Tatian was chosen by Fan'er. I believe in Fan'er's vision!"

Hearing Emperor Yan's words, Shadow was slightly stunned. He didn't expect Emperor Yan to trust the Eighth Prince so much. Wasn't he really afraid that the Eighth Prince would make the wrong choice? !

What if Fang Tatian really chose to surrender? Then today, they might really be finished!

Even if Emperor Yan was not sick, the three princes were at the gates of the city and the arrows were on the string and had to be shot. It was estimated that they would most likely kill their father!

Just as Shadow was worried, Fang Tatian's cold voice rang out.

“My three princes, although I am afraid of death and want wealth and glory, I still have a bottom line. Your Majesty has done me a favor, and His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin has also done me a favor. He asked me to protect Your Majesty, so how can I put Your Majesty in danger? Unless I die in battle, you will never be able to step into this Taiji Palace.”
