Xiao Jing subconsciously raised his sleeves to cover his face and quickly stepped aside.

He didn't walk into the secret room cautiously until the black ash stopped flying.

The secret room had already been burned to black, and none of the paintings hanging on the wall were left, only a few shafts remained.

Xiao Jing looked at the charred colors and his face became extremely ugly.

He checked other places and found that all the papers and cloths in the secret room had been burned, not even the cushion he often used was left.

He gritted his teeth, his expression becoming increasingly grim, and finally he suddenly drew out his sword and chopped hard.

"Damn it! Damn it! You all deserve to die!"

After venting his anger, Xiao Jing put away his knife, turned around and walked out of the secret room, and ordered the palace servants to go in and clean up.

Then he went to the side hall again.

Seeing that the imperial physician was already waiting in the side hall, Xiao Jing immediately said, "Give me the medicine quickly!"

After taking the pill, he could no longer hold on and soon fell onto the bed, and finally just lay down.

But he didn't sleep. Instead, he asked someone to call his confidant and gave several orders with cold eyes.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, urgent news came from outside eight hundred miles away - the Xia army suddenly launched a night attack and Xijin City was broken!

When Xiao Jing heard the news, his eyes immediately turned bloodshot, filled with murderous intent!

He was so angry that he clenched his fists and pounded the bed: "Bastard! Bastard! Where is the Lord of Xijin City? What is that bastard doing!"

The palace maid who reported the news didn't even dare to raise her head: "Your Majesty, the Lord of Xijin City has died for his country!"

"Humph! He got it easy! He actually lost Xijin Mansion. I should cut him into pieces!"

Xiao Jing snorted coldly and asked again: "Where are the Xia army? What are they doing? Are they staying in Xijin Prefecture, or continuing to head north? Come on -"

In the end, he was no longer impatient to listen to the news from the palace people, so he directly ordered people to summon the important officials in the court. He also forced himself to stand up and go to discuss with those important officials.

He used to be a fierce tiger, but now he is old and has a head disease, and he can no longer let others see his weakness.

Xiao Jing forced himself to summon important officials from the court, but this time, his luck was not good.

Halfway through the discussion, he suddenly fainted in front of everyone, scaring everyone so much that their faces turned pale.

After this fall, Xiao Jing did not wake up for five days, causing unrest in the court and the country.

Even though several important ministers and princes intended to block the news, Xiao Jing was considered a model worker and would attend court regardless of wind or rain.

Now that he has not appeared for five consecutive days, the court officials can't help but feel uneasy.

No one dared to discuss it openly, but many people had already secretly held small meetings.

Several princes were no exception.

Xiao Jing is already old, and now he suddenly falls into a coma and has not woken up for five consecutive days. People have to wonder whether he can wake up.

If not, who will inherit the throne?

You know, Xiao Jing was extremely suspicious. After the crown prince died, he never appointed another crown prince.

The princes who had already grown up were sent to their respective fiefdoms and stationed at various border checkpoints, and were not allowed to return to the capital without being summoned.

Because Xijin Prefecture was close to the Xia Kingdom and was very rich, Xiao Jing was not confident in handing it over to the prince, so he specially sent his confidants to guard it.

He was worried that his son would collude with the Xia Kingdom, and he was also worried that his son would use the wealth of Xijin Prefecture to expand his power, and once he became powerful enough, he would rebel and usurp the throne.

Therefore, he would rather send his confidants to garrison Xijin Prefecture, requiring the other party to provide him with a large amount of money every year, and then use this money to arm the guards in the capital and train more confidants.

As more and more of his sons grew up and he grew older, Xiao Jing felt more and more uneasy.

He even worried about his sons stationed outside, fearing that they would use the soldiers they had against him.

So he found an excuse to summon his sons who were stationed outside to the capital, then kept them all and arranged for his confidants to take charge of the military power.

Over the years, Xiao Jing's sons have died or been born young, and now there are only fifteen princes left.

Among these fifteen princes, eleven have reached adulthood, and the remaining four are slightly younger.

Now that Xiao Jing suddenly fell into a coma, these princes couldn't help but have some ideas.

Naturally, the underage princes could not compete, but the adult princes all had their own thoughts.

They are like powder kegs. Just a few sparks will cause them to explode.

So during the five days that Xiao Jing was unconscious, Xie Ying, who was hiding in the cold palace, threw a lot of sparks at these princes.

The solution is very simple.

All they had to do was let Xiangxiang sneak into the prince's mansion, find the study and secret room, and deliberately steal some letters, or mess up the books slightly to make it look like they had been rummaged through.

These princes would instantly become frightened birds, suspecting that spies had sneaked into their studies.

When these princes gather their confidants for a secret talk, they will deliberately make some noise outside to create the illusion that someone is eavesdropping, so that they will not be afraid of taking risks.

Although Xie Ying was hiding in the cold palace, she was extremely busy.

Not only does he have to sympathize with Xiangxiang at night and sneak into the study rooms of each prince to cause trouble, but he also has to keep a close eye on the movements of these princes and find the right time to make a move.

In order to stimulate these people to take action as soon as possible, Xie Ying also asked Xiangxiang to drug them so that they would also have nightmares.

She had already heard a lot of information that Xiao Jing was a vicious, heartless and suspicious person, and he even planned to kill his first wife and two legitimate sons.

Which prince would not be afraid of such a cruel and terrifying emperor father?

Who knows if Xiao Jing will suddenly go crazy one day and kill all his sons?

So Xie Ying was very sure that as long as she drugged these princes, they would dream of being killed.

The same goes for Xiao Jing.

What did ancient emperors fear most?

Someone rebelled and seized the throne, and assassinated the emperor!

Xiao Jing hid so many people's portraits in the secret room, it was obvious that he was very uneasy inside.

Such people are prone to nightmares, and with Xie Ying's "help", they have even more nightmares, always dreaming of themselves being killed in various ways.

Xie Ying was very satisfied with Xiao Jing's reaction.

Now, she has completely stirred up trouble in the capital of Yan State and is just waiting for the princes to take action.

These people did not disappoint her.

Five more days passed, and Xiao Jing was still in a coma, his breathing becoming weaker and weaker, and it seemed that he would never wake up again.

The princes finally couldn't hold back their twisted desires and staged a coup for Xie Ying.

In the darkness of night, Xie Ying lay on the high roof, listening to the sounds of fighting coming from afar, looking at the flickering flames, smelling the bloody smell in the air, and curling her lips in mockery.

Now that the winner has been decided, it's time for Xiao Jing to wake up.

What would this old man do when he saw his sons killing each other and trying to seize the throne while he was unconscious?

In Xiao Jing's bedroom, he was still lying unconscious on the carved dragon bed, as if he were already dead.

Suddenly, he opened his tightly closed eyes.
