Time Travel: Unrivaled in the Tang Dynasty

Chi Lian could not interfere with the battle between True Man Chi Yang, Taoist Shang Qing, and Master Jing En, so he turned his attention to Ye Haoran!

"Mr. Ye, I let you escape by luck last time, but I didn't expect that you would fall into my trap today!" He then pulled out the dagger from his waist!

At the same time, dozens of disciples of the Red Flame Sect appeared from all directions!

Ye Haoran quickly waved his hand and said:

"Girl! There's no need for us to waste our energy! The three seniors are the protagonists!" Ye Haoran said as he sat down on the stone steps!

Chi Lian agreed with Ye Haoran's words. After the master defeated Shangqing and Jingen, would she still be afraid that Ye Haoran would run away? She had absolute confidence in her master! In the fourth realm of Wuxiang, how many people in the world can compete with him?

In the Taiji Hall, hundreds of civil and military officials stood quietly in the hall, terrified and fearful! Most people were confused. Wasn't His Majesty ill? Why did he suddenly have to attend the morning court? Was he going to announce the succession of the new emperor?

Only a few people know clearly that today is destined to be a bloody day!!!

When Li Chengqian, wearing a four-clawed dragon robe and a crown, sat on the dragon throne, all the officials instantly became chaotic and started whispering to each other!

"Ahem!" Li Chengqian coughed twice! He suppressed the discussion of all officials!

"My dear ministers, are you wondering why I am here? This is why I asked you to come to the morning court today!"

Li Chengqian saw that the ministers below looked at each other and no one responded, so he continued:

"My father has been feeling unwell lately, so he sent an imperial decree to me, asking me to return to the palace and pass the throne to me! Eunuch Liu, please announce the decree!"

Eunuch Liu came out with a troubled look on his face and spoke slowly:

"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims: Crown Prince Li Zhi is deposed, and the throne is passed to Li Chengqian! I decree this!"

Faced with such a perfunctory imperial edict, all the civil and military officials seemed to understand something!

"Since Your Majesty is ill, we, the old ministers, will go to visit him first. How can the matter of succession to the throne be so sloppy!" Fang Xuanling was the first to step forward!

"Hmm? Lord Fang, are you questioning the imperial edict and this prince?"

"The eldest prince was already an exiled criminal. His sudden entry into the palace is a crime of deceiving the emperor. How can people be convinced by his one-sided statement now?" Yuchi Jingde was a straightforward man and reprimanded Li Chengqian without any scruples!

"How dare you! Yuchi Gong, this prince, remembering that you are a founding hero, will not bother with you! If you dare to speak nonsense again, don't blame me for being merciless! Come, close the palace door. If anyone deceives the emperor and disobeys the order again, arrest them immediately. If they resist, kill them without mercy!"

"Yes!" Hundreds of royal guards rushed in, closed the palace door, and stood on both sides of the hall!

Some civil servants were so frightened that their legs went weak, while the military officers could only stare angrily and dared not say anything!

"Royal brother, why do you have to do this! If father really wants to abolish Li Zhi's position as crown prince, Li Zhi has nothing to say! But if Li Zhi is not the only one who is doing this unclearly, I am afraid that people all over the world will be suspicious of you, Royal brother!" Li Zhi spoke at this time!

Li Chengqian glanced at his younger brother, who was five or six years younger than him. He was a little follower who always followed him around when they were children!

"What do you think, Ninth Brother?"

"Since my brother is the legitimate heir to the throne, we should ask our father to personally pass on the throne to him in front of all the civil and military officials! Only in this way can all the officials be convinced and the people of the world respect him!"

"Isn't what I've said clear enough? My father is not in a position to attend the court, so if you still have doubts, please ask Concubine Wei to prove it for me!"

As soon as Li Chengqian finished speaking, Concubine Wei came out from the side hall with several palace maids!
