Quick Wear: The host is good at flirting, and the cold beauty's soul floats

Seeing that Wei Jingyan was so strong and did not listen to his advice, Wei Jingxu's eyes were covered with a layer of coldness. He did not believe that Wei Jingyan was just worried that Wei State could not win, and it seemed more like he wanted to take the opportunity to take back the tiger talisman and seize the throne.

He has long known that Wei Jingyan has the intention to seize the throne. Now that Wei Jingze is poisoned in bed, can Wei Jingyan not wait to show his wolfish ambitions?

Wei Jingze was in poor health, and Wei Jingxu didn't want to argue with Wei Jingyan in front of Wei Jingze so as not to disturb Wei Jingze's rest, but he also didn't want Wei Jingyan to embarrass Wei Jingze at this time.

"Brother, I have met Lan Heng. He is an outstanding martial artist in both martial arts and talent. This expedition will surely bring great victory."

Wei Jingyan sneered, "Fourth brother, are you too confident? Don't you know the importance of a reputable general in war?"

"Lan Heng has only trained the soldiers for a few months and has never actually been on the battlefield. He might just be a figurehead." Wei Jingyan said, "Besides, I am the general who protects the country of Wei. Could Lan Heng be more powerful than me?"

Although Wei Jingyan was kneeling, his tone of voice was not at all inferior, and his words and deeds emphasized his irreplaceability.

He was full of confidence. If the Great Wei could find someone to replace him, how could Wei Jingze keep him?

Wei Jingze probably sent Lan Heng this time to see if Lan Heng could replace him, but Wei Jingze was too naive. He was just an unknown person, and it was simply wishful thinking for him to want to replace his position.

When Wei Jingze heard Wei Jingyan's arrogant remarks, he coughed twice in anger. Wei Jingxu quickly walked to the bedside to comfort him: "Royal brother, don't be angry."

Wei Jingyan ignored Wei Jingze's discomfort and kept pleading, "Your Majesty, you cannot leave the future of the Great Wei and the lives of the people to an unknown person!"

Wei Jingze looked at Wei Jingyan with indifference in his eyes and asked, "Could it be that my brother was the general who protected the country of Wei from the beginning?"

Wei Jingze's words left Wei Jing speechless. His mind froze for a moment before turning rapidly: "Although I wasn't the general who defended the country of Wei from the beginning, I am one now. Even if the emperor wants to give Lan Heng a chance to establish military merit, it shouldn't be at such a critical juncture. What if he..."

"Nothing will happen." Wei Jingyan interrupted Wei Jingze. He didn't want to hear anything bad. He just wanted Lan Yun to be safe and sound and come back with good news. "I believe in Lan Heng."

Seeing that Wei Jingze refused to give in, Wei Jingyan had no choice but to stand up and pull Wei Jingxu aside, wanting Wei Jingxu to help persuade Wei Jingze.

Wei Jingxu only had one sentence: "This prince trusts the decision of the emperor brother."

Wei Jingxu has always been loyal to Wei Jingze, and what he said at this time made Wei Jingyan feel that he was completely brainless.

Wei Jingyan did not get the answer he wanted during this trip to the palace, and left Wei Jingze's palace angrily.

On the way back, Wei Jingyan thought about the current situation in the palace.

Wei Jingze was dying and it was estimated that he would not live long. Zhuo Qing was guarding the gate of Wei Jingze's palace. Only a few thousand of the 30,000 imperial guards were in the palace. The rest were scattered throughout the capital and patrolled with soldiers assigned by the Minister of War to prevent spies from the State of Zhao from taking the opportunity to sneak into the capital.

It can be said that the guards inside the palace are not as good as those outside the palace.

Wei Jingyan thought it through and after a day and a night of consideration, he finally made up his mind.

He summoned his secret guards and some confidants, and asked the Minister of War to summon soldiers. They secretly surrounded the palace overnight and took control of the imperial guards in the palace. At the same time, he also took control of Zhuo Qing.

Candles were burning in the bedroom, illuminating the room.

Wei Jingyan, wearing black armor and a dark red cloak, entered Wei Jingze's bedroom alone and closed the door.

Ye Zao had been guarding Wei Jingze's bedside. Seeing Wei Jingyan dressed so aggressively, he immediately stood in front of Wei Jingze. "What does Prince Duan want to do?"

Wei Jingyan looked at Ye Zao coldly and said, "You are a loyal dog. I urge you to get out of the way, or don't blame me for being rude."

"Impossible." Ye Zao stiffened his neck, ready to die, and used his actions to show that he would not give in.

"Ye Zao." Wei Jingze's weak voice came from behind Ye Zao. Ye Zao replied without turning his head: "Don't be afraid, Your Majesty. I will never let anyone hurt you."

Wei Jingze was moved by Ye Zao's loyalty, but he also knew that if Ye Zao tried to stop Wei Jingyan again, he might really die.

"Ye Zao, please move aside. I want to hear what Prince Duan wants to do by coming here so late at night."

Ye Zao hesitated again and again, still not intending to give in, Wei Jingze said helplessly: "Help me up."

After Wei Jingze said this, Ye Zao had no choice but to turn around and help Wei Jingze up.

Wei Jingze's face was pale and bloodless, and it was obvious that he was poisoned and beyond saving, but he still forced himself to cheer up and talk to Wei Jingyan.

"My Royal Brother, what are you planning to do by entering the palace dressed like this late at night and carrying a sword?"

At this point, Wei Jingyan stopped beating around the bush with Wei Jingze. "Didn't the Emperor see that?"

Wei Jingyan took a step forward and took out the imperial edict he had prepared.

"Your Majesty is seriously ill, and the country cannot be without a ruler for a day. I believe Your Majesty understands what I mean."

Wei Jingze coughed twice, and his face turned abnormally red because of the coughing.

"Oh? My Royal Brother, are you planning to force me to abdicate?"

"You can't say that," Wei Jing said righteously, "The Emperor has been poisoned to the core and is dying. He has simply handed over the Wei Kingdom to me before his death."

"Oh!" Wei Jingze's face showed sarcasm: "My royal brother has long coveted the throne, why bother to speak so eloquently."

Wei Jingyan did not deny it. There were only three of them here, so he didn't need to hide his true identity anymore.

"What do you mean by coveting? The throne should have been mine!"

"I am the eldest son, and my mother was the late emperor's favorite concubine. Why can't I be the emperor?" Wei Jing spoke passionately, expressing his truest thoughts. "In terms of talent and military achievements, I am superior to you. If it weren't for your status as a legitimate son, I should be the one to ascend the throne."

Wei Jingyan took a deep breath to calm his inner restlessness.

"I might as well tell His Majesty that it was my idea for Zhao to send troops this time. I have already taken control of the capital. My brother, please hand over the imperial seal and pass the throne to me. Perhaps I will even spare your life for the sake of our family."

Wei Jingyan stated his purpose, and Wei Jingze said calmly, "Do you think I'm stupid? If you hand over the jade seal, I will die here today."

Wei Jingyan said: "It's all the same. It's a matter of time. This position should have been mine. But if you hand over the jade seal, I will make it easier for you."

Wei Jingze looked at the confident Wei Jingyan with cold eyes and ruthlessly broke his fantasy: "My Royal Brother is still too confident!"
