The substitute prince: Reported the emperor's brother at the beginning
Chapter 2: You are a prince, what can I do if I kill you?
These guards all knew that the Sixth Prince had been stockpiling food, fodder, and troops in the imperial capital while the emperor was ill, intending to rebel.
If this matter had not been exposed, the Sixth Prince might even have launched an uprising.
Now that he has been exposed, the Imperial Guards will come to arrest him and interrogate him. Once he is caught, he will be tortured to death!
Qin Haifeng couldn't understand why the Sixth Prince didn't run away at this critical juncture.
"Your Highness..."
Qin Haifeng wanted to persuade him, but Ning Yi raised his hand to stop him. Without saying a word, he strode towards the gate of the prince's mansion.
It was very lively outside the prince's mansion. Hundreds of royal guards came in with great momentum and surrounded the front gate of the prince's mansion.
Wearing armor and going into battle, the air is filled with murderous intent!
In front of the gate, there was a tall and strong man with dark skin riding a Ferghana horse. He had a dark face and the shocking scar on his face was particularly eye-catching in the sunlight.
He is Han Changqing, the commander of the Imperial Guards.
He was once a general who fought on the battlefield and had made outstanding military achievements. He made great contributions to the emperor of the time. Later, due to injury, he returned to the imperial capital to recuperate. In the end, he was kept by the emperor and became the commander of the imperial guards.
It’s a pity that Han Changqing chose the wrong side and followed the Fourth Prince!
squeak...
The gate of the prince's mansion slowly opened and a servant walked out.
"How dare you! Do you know this is the Sixth Prince's residence? Are you planning a rebellion?"
Han Changqing frowned, and thrust out with the spear in his hand, and the servant's voice stopped abruptly.
The spear pierced directly through the servant's chest. Han Changqing raised his hand and the servant's body was thrown out, hitting the courtyard wall. Blood spurted out of his mouth and he fell heavily to the ground, dying instantly!
Han Changqing was worthy of the title of cold-blooded killer. Without blinking, he shook his hand, and the spear made a buzzing sound. The blood on the tip of the spear was shaken off, and he looked very majestic!
"By order of the Emperor, arrest the Sixth Prince Wu Lingyun. Anyone who stands in our way will be killed without mercy!"
Roar……
Roar……
Roar……
Hundreds of royal guards behind him shouted loudly, and their momentum shook the heavens!
Han Changqing raised his hand, and the voice stopped. He immediately gave orders: "Team one, guard the back door and don't let anyone go. Team two, surround the prince's mansion. Team three..."
While making arrangements, Han Changqing suddenly frowned and stopped.
Looking closely, he saw the Sixth Prince Wu Lingyun striding out of the mansion holding the Dragon Slaying Sword.
hiss……
Han Changqing was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the Sixth Prince didn't run away.
While he was stunned, Ning Yi had already walked close to Han Changqing. The long sword hummed, and a cold light flashed, and the front legs of the Ferghana horse were chopped off at once.
There was a terrible neigh, accompanied by Han Changqing's scream, and as the Arabian horse fell down, Han Changqing also fell off the horse!
Before the man could stand firmly, a slap hit his dark face.
The incident happened suddenly. Not only did the hundreds of imperial guards fail to react, even Han Changqing, the god of death who had fought on the battlefield for many years, was completely caught off guard!
"Sixth Prince, you..."
Clang…
The long sword was against Han Changqing's throat, and a chilling feeling instantly spread throughout his body. Han Changqing had to swallow back the words in his mouth.
He looked up and met Ning Yi's gaze, only to see that the other party's eyes were full of coldness. Even a killing god like him couldn't help but feel guilty and scared.
"Han Changqing, you are so bold that you dare to kill everyone in my mansion for no reason. Do you think that I, the prince, don't exist?"
Ning Yi put on an extremely angry face, which made Han Changqing a little confused for a moment.
"If you touch my servants, you are insulting the dignity of the royal family. I will kill you right now!"
Gududu…
Han Changqing swallowed his saliva, still feeling depressed.
What is this thing called?
I was ordered to arrest someone, but now I haven't caught anyone, but instead I have been accused of a big crime?
After a few seconds of silence, Han Changqing finally reacted. He frowned and narrowed his eyes, "Your Highness, I am following orders. Anyone who obstructs me will be killed without mercy. This is the right granted to me by the Emperor! Not to mention a servant like him, even Your Highness himself..."
Snapped……
A slap hit Han Changqing's face, and Han Changqing suddenly felt a buzzing in his head.
Ning Yi leaned forward and stared at Han Changqing intently: "What a great authorization from the Emperor, but does the Emperor know that you are committing an insubordination?"
"This……"
Han Changqing was speechless.
Although he was just a military man, he knew that the dignity of the royal family should not be offended. Even if the Sixth Prince himself was about to be tortured to death, it was not a reason for him, Han Changqing, to commit rebellion.
He had to swallow his pride and accept the loss. His mind raced as Han Changqing said, "I have indeed offended you. Now that Your Highness has come out, there is no need for me to invade the Prince's residence again. Please come with me to report on my duties."
Ning Yi raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "With you? Where to?"
"Are you going to the palace to see the emperor? It just so happens that I am about to go to the palace as well."
Ning Yi integrated the memories and knew everything. He thought to himself that the Fourth Prince must have no evidence to expose the Sixth Prince.
However, the Sixth Prince was guilty and worried that his father would kill him in a rage. After all, he was not popular.
Therefore, the Sixth Prince prepared in advance and pushed himself as a substitute to be the scapegoat, so that he could operate behind the scenes and wait for the opportunity to rebel!
Now, this substitute of his has been put forward, and outsiders can't tell the real from the fake. He also took the Sixth Prince's token. Now, this substitute of his has transformed into the real Sixth Prince!
Shouldn't you first find a father and let the old emperor see your face clearly?
Han Changqing was stunned for two seconds, then chuckled, "Sixth Prince, things have come to this point, why are you still holding on?"
"Your Highness has been hoarding grain and buying soldiers in the imperial capital with the intention of rebellion, and this has been exposed. I have come here on orders to arrest His Highness and bring him to justice."
Ning Yi laughed, put away the Dragon Slaying Sword, and laughed wildly and unrestrainedly.
"I'm hoarding food and buying soldiers with the intention of rebellion? And someone exposed me? I find it interesting. Who exposed me? If I'm not mistaken, it should be my brother, the Fourth Prince, right?"
Emperor Wu has a total of six princes, and the second prince is the crown prince. He is smooth and tactful, and he can fool the emperor around, so he is highly valued by the emperor.
The other four imperial brothers, the eldest prince and the third prince, were free-spirited and spent their days traveling and sightseeing. They were never willing to get involved in the intrigues among the princes, and they didn't like to worry about state affairs.
The fifth prince was a drunkard and a womanizer, indulging in wine and women every day, just like a god.
Only the Fourth Prince loves fame and fortune the most, and his ambition is no less than that of the Sixth Prince. He and the Sixth Prince have disliked each other since they were young, and they have always been at odds with each other, and he has always wanted to get rid of the Sixth Prince as soon as possible.
Apart from him, no one else would expose Wu Lingyun.
Han Changqing frowned deeply, finding it a little unbelievable.
Because he knew that the person who exposed the Sixth Prince was none other than the Fourth Prince, and no one else knew about this matter except him and Emperor Wu!
But the Sixth Prince hit the nail on the head with a firm look in his eyes.
Han Changqing was shocked: "Oh no! Could it be that the Sixth Prince knows that I am the Fourth Prince's man?"
In fact, the Fourth Prince had been preparing to take action before Wu Lingyun, and had long intended to usurp the throne. He had won over many confidants in the court and even wanted to control military power...
Coming back to his senses, Han Changqing said coldly: "Your Highness, there is no need to ask any more questions. I know nothing and am only following orders."
"What a man who follows orders!"
As he spoke, the dragon-slaying sword pierced Han Changqing's throat a little, and blood suddenly appeared.
"Do you know what this Dragon Slaying Sword means?"
Han Changqing was shocked and stammered, "It was bestowed by the Emperor. Seeing the sword is like seeing the Emperor."
Ning Yi smiled slightly: "Since you also know about this Dragon Slaying Sword, then do you know that even if I chop off your head right now, you won't be able to do anything?"
Han Changqing swallowed his saliva: "But Your Highness, the Emperor said..."
"What are you talking about? Is the Emperor really going to torture me to death based on just one side's words? No wonder you're a brainless warrior."
After a pause, Ning Yi sneered: "If you don't believe me, why don't you let me try? If I kill you now, will the emperor really torture me to death?" Han Changqing was completely scared!
The dragon-slaying sword bestowed by the emperor means killing first and reporting later. Even if he really kills himself, the Sixth Prince may not be in any danger.
"Your Highness, I will escort you into the palace."
Han Changqing was frightened and completely surrendered.
Although Han Changqing is a subordinate of the Fourth Prince, he cannot die under the Dragon Slaying Sword because of such a thing.
