The host is no longer a human today.

Shen Yirui had few troops, so when Shen Zhiyuan and Shen Yifan joined forces, they were naturally defeated quickly.

The two did not give him a chance to make a comeback and killed him directly. From then on, the two immediately broke up and fought to the death for the throne.

Shen Yifan was not good at political intrigues to begin with, and after losing his military advisor Shen Yirui, he quickly lost to Shen Zhiyuan.

Shen Zhiyuan was merciful and sent him directly to reunite with Shen Yiru.

Now the news that Shen Zuixue will soon die has spread throughout the court. Ambitious royal family members can no longer sit still and have begun to fight openly and secretly.

With Yan Changsui in charge of the court, he is like a stabilizing force, and no one dares to act presumptuously.

As a result, the fight for the throne mostly turned into a private fight with real swords and guns, and royal children died in the fights every day.

"Your Majesty, since the last time, Shen Zhiyuan knew that his subordinates had rebelled, but perhaps he thought you were really ill, so his actions became more and more arrogant."

Hongying stood respectfully below and reported to Shen Zuixue the situation inside and outside the palace.

"Most of the princes of the royal family are getting impatient. Some of them really don't want to do that, but there are also two who... think they can get a bargain."

Hongying was a little hesitant when he spoke the latter part. In fact, the reason why they thought so was because Shen Zuixue ascended to the throne by taking advantage of the opportunity, so they did not take any action.

"Forget it. I am not a person who kills people without restraint. I will judge by their deeds rather than their intentions. Since they did not participate, I don't need to worry about them."

"Yes."

Red Eagle nodded in agreement.

Soon, in just half a month, the entire upper echelon of the Ling Dynasty's ruling class was filled with a faint smell of blood. Shen Zhiyuan had killed all of his competitors who had different positions from him.

"Brother, the throne is now within your grasp. Just wait for the emperor to pass away, and you will be the next emperor." Shen Zhijin said to Shen Zhiyuan with a faint smile.

"No, maybe he is not sick at all." Shen Zhiyuan is not stupid. Ever since the news from Red Eagle was false, he has doubted the authenticity of Shen Zuixue's illness.

Later, he went on a killing spree, killing those cousins ​​as if he was in an empty space. I had already guessed that Shen Zuixue probably did it on purpose, wanting to watch them kill each other and then catch them all in one fell swoop.

However, at that time he had no way out, so he just went all the way to the end.

Anyway, history books are written by the victors. As long as he can win, and he says Shen Zuixue died of illness, then he must have died of illness!

"Ah? What should we do then?" Shen Zhijin was surprised. He didn't know that Hongying had rebelled, or rather, he had never asked about it since Hongying entered the palace.

"Heh! So what if it's fake? Since you've given me the chance, you must be prepared to be backlashed!" Shen Zhiyuan sneered. He's just a prince who grew up in the cold palace. He still wants to fight with him?

He was quite surprised that Shen Zuixue could think of this method to force them to take action.

Upon hearing this, Shen Zhijin nodded and didn't ask any more questions. No matter when their father was around or when Shen Zhiyuan was in charge now, he was the one who obeyed orders.

He just watched whatever Shen Zhiyuan wanted to do.

Shen Zhiyuan had no intention of listening to his advice and had already told his subordinates to be ready to force the emperor to abdicate tomorrow!

He just didn't believe that with only Shen Zuixue, a member of the Imperial Guard, what could he use to fight him?

He was feeling very proud of himself, but he didn't know that not only did Shen Zuixue know his intentions, but there were also people who were willing to take care of him for Shen Zuixue.
