Let me be a concubine? I turned to someone else's arms
Chapter 171: To avenge her, it doesn't matter if I become a traitor
A layer of thick, almost insoluble depression quickly accumulated between "Xie Yun's" brows, and a hint of anger flashed across that handsome face for an instant, but soon returned to calm, even colder than before, and glanced coldly at the emperor lying on the bed.
Jin Zhao was clearly in his early thirties, in the prime of life, but his temples were already gray, his face was haggard, his eyes were cloudy, and he looked listless, as if he had been eroded by time and had lost his vitality.
It was not because "Xie Yun" poisoned Jin Zhao, but because it was the good queen chosen by Jin Zhao himself - Cui Qianqian who did it!
After calming down, "Xie Yun" slowly bent down, reached out and gently grabbed the child who looked only about ten years old beside the bed, and led him in front of him.
Then, "Xie Yun" whispered in the child's ear: "Prince, do you still remember your mother's last wish for you to become the emperor? Now, the time has finally come..."
When Jin Zhao heard what "Xie Yun" said, he was stunned at first, and then a trace of astonishment and disbelief flashed in his eyes.
But then, he suddenly burst into laughter, his laughter full of mockery and disdain, "Hahahaha... Xie Yun, Xie Yun, you treacherous minister, aren't you afraid of being despised by the world and infamous for eternity? Aren't you afraid that the good reputation accumulated by your Chenjun Xie family for thousands of years will be destroyed by you in an instant?!"
The palace maids and eunuchs around all knelt on the ground, trembling with fear and anxiety.
"Xie Yun" turned a deaf ear to Jin Zhao's angry and sarcastic words, and sneered, "If I can avenge Ah Qin, what's wrong with becoming a traitor?"
"He" glanced at Wu Yan, Wu Yan nodded, turned around and left the bedroom.
Jin Zhao glared at him angrily, "You really can't let her go, you really did it for her!!"
Xie Yun, who was illusory on the side, was shocked and thought to himself, as expected.
"Then do you know that Yao'er's death was all due to this guy complaining to Queen Cui!" Jin Zhao suddenly pointed at the eldest prince.
When the eldest prince heard this, his face turned pale, his lips trembled, and he shook his head in fear, "No, it's not me!"
Minister Xie is so terrifying. If he knew the truth, he would be killed!
"It's you!" Jin Zhao was furious. "It was you who told Cui Xianxian that I only loved Yao'er and would give Yao'er everything in the future. Your mother was jealous and designed Yang Guipin to kill Yao'er! Qin'er was killed and two people died! Cui Xianxian is the most vicious woman in the world! She is not worthy of being the mother of a country! She should be buried with Qin'er and the two children!"
"No, no! Not at all!" The eldest prince clenched his fists tightly, feeling terrified and angry. "My mother is not vicious at all. She is the best mother in the world!"
"Alright, shut up!!!" "Xie Yun" had a cold face and interrupted the quarrel between father and son in a stern voice.
The hall suddenly became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Some palace servants were so frightened that they almost paralyzed.
After a while, Wu Yan came in again with a wine jar in his hand.
"Xie Yun" lifted the wine jar and presented it to the boy. The flickering candlelight was reflected in his eyes, which were dark and cold. He slowly opened his lips and spoke word by word: "Prince, please send His Majesty on his way."
The eldest prince's face turned pale, and his small body trembled uncontrollably. He stared with wide eyes at the "Xie Yun" in front of him in horror, and backed away repeatedly.
"No... I can't... This is the crime of regicide!" The eldest prince's voice was filled with tears.
"If you don't do it, do you think His Majesty will let you go?" "Xie Yun" looked as calm as a pool of stagnant water, and his tone was as cold as ice, "Think about how your mother died."
The eldest prince lowered his head, his eyes filled with pain and conflict. His small hands were clenched into fists, but he was unable to take a step forward.
Yes, his father never treated him as a child, and he even poisoned his mother, who loved him so much...
The more the little boy thought about it, the more vicious his eyes became.
“How dare you!” Jin Zhao shouted loudly, his throat gurgling. He stared at the boy with his eyes. Although his voice was hoarse, his majesty was still as strong as before. He glared at “Xie Yun” fiercely, “Xie Yun, you traitor, don’t even think about it!”
As he spoke, he struggled to sit up from the bed, but his body was too weak and after trying for a long time, he could only lift his upper body.
The eldest prince was startled by his voice and almost dropped the wine bottle on the ground.
"Xie Yun" smiled coldly and said, "Your Majesty, please don't waste your energy and go on your journey with peace of mind."
After saying this, he waved his hand, signaling the eldest prince to take action.
The eldest prince gritted his teeth, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes, and walked towards the bed step by step.
"Rebellious son! How dare you!" Jin Zhao's eyes widened as he stared fiercely at the eldest prince. "No matter what, I am your biological father! If you kill me, you will be unfaithful, unjust, and unfilial. You will be guilty of the most heinous crimes. You will not have a good death in the future and will fall into the eighteenth level of hell after death!"
The boy was young and had an instinctive fear of supernatural things. He was suddenly frightened by Jin Zhao's words and began to tremble with fear, feeling a chill down his spine.
But when he thought about how his beloved mother died at the hands of his father, he mustered up his courage again and said with tears in his eyes: "Father, you forced me to do all this, you forced me to do it!"
He was right! He was forced by the treacherous minister "Xie Yun", and he was just seeking revenge for his mother!
"Hurry up and do it, time is running out." "Xie Yun" looked down at him and urged coldly.
The eldest prince picked up the wine bottle and walked towards the bed step by step...
Jin Zhao watched helplessly as the poisoned wine approached. The danger of death was getting closer and closer. He was filled with fear and resentment.
"stop!!!"
At this moment, there was a commotion outside the door, the sound of armor colliding, and a group of guards rushed in with swords and quickly surrounded "Xie Yun" and the eldest prince!
"The traitor Xie Yun dared to rebel. Come, take him down!" the leading general Jingzhe shouted loudly.
The eldest prince was startled, stopped what he was doing, and looked at "Xie Yun" with tears in his eyes.
A hint of surprise flashed across "Xie Yun's" eyes, but he immediately regained his composure, still standing there calmly.
Wu Yan drew his sword and stood in front of "Xie Yun", ready to attack at any time.
Jin Zhao on the bed was overjoyed when he saw this, and he struggled and shouted, "Jingzhe, kill this villain quickly!"
Wu Yan drew his sword, ready to engage in a fierce battle with the guards.
But at this moment, someone else came!
There was another sound of uniform footsteps outside, and then countless people rushed in, some holding bows and arrows, some holding long swords and spears, and all of them had eyes as sharp as evil spirits.
They were well-trained and agile, and surrounded all the guards in the blink of an eye.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the room was extremely tense.
All the people brought by Jingzhe were surrounded in an instant!
Suddenly, the crowd made way for each other and a handsome man in white clothes walked slowly towards them.
He has a handsome face and elegant temperament, but his expression is cold, giving people a feeling that he is difficult to approach.
It’s Wang Zuo!
Wang Xu glanced at Jingzhe who was in doubt and said, "There is nothing to be surprised about. Cui has already cooperated with us, and all the members of Yang have been executed."
His tone was calm, but the meaning of his words made Jingzhe's face change drastically.
He opened his eyes wide and looked at Wang Zuo in disbelief, as if he couldn't believe what he heard.
"Impossible... How is this possible?" Jingzhe muttered to himself, his face full of astonishment.
Jin Zhao couldn't believe it either, the Yang family and the Imperial Guards were his last trump cards, and now the Yang family was all gone!
