Chapter 511: Time to Enjoy Your Old Age
Bei Jingyu clenched his hands excitedly to curb the future he had described.
But he still had some hesitation in his heart, and said: "But your majesty has not deposed the crown prince, and her body has not been found yet. How can your majesty pass the throne to me instead of the crown prince? My subjects will not believe it."
Chang Tingyi took a deep breath, as if he was a little impatient with his slowness, but he still said patiently: "Your Highness, just find a rotten corpse and say it is the prince, then it will naturally be your turn."
So, Bei Jingchu was staying in her hiding place when she heard that the prince's body had been found.
Bei Jingchu: “…Ah?”
"......oh."
She roughly guessed what the other party wanted to do, and just nodded and said, "That's good. Most people think I'm dead, so it's easier to act. It actually adds a layer of chance of winning."
After late night, there is only one hour left until dawn, which is when the night is at its darkest.
Even though the people above ordered the palace gates to be strictly guarded, nothing happened after guarding all night last night.
The person on duty tonight couldn't help feeling sleepy before going home, and took a nap thinking that no one was supervising him.
Then his companions covered his mouth and cut his neck with a knife, so that he didn't make a sound.
After the man solved the problem, he opened the door lock. Outside an inconspicuous corner door of the palace, a group of well-trained soldiers stood in neat rows.
An inconspicuous torch illuminated the solemn and murderous look on everyone's face.
After the corner gate was opened, a group of iron men in full armor poured in like a continuous stream.
And this corner gate is just one of them.
Almost all entrances fell at the same time.
However, the assassinations at several of the doors failed and were not resolved before any noise was made.
But so what?
The next moment, the army broke in. The advance plot was just to avoid alerting the enemy and causing more trouble.
The real confidence comes from the fact that one can defeat ten kinds of skills with one's strength.
A group of soldiers rushed into the palace but could not hide for long. Soon, the tranquility of the night was suddenly broken by the shouting and killing at the gate of the imperial city.
The officials and their families who lived nearby were awakened by the alarm. In panic, they asked people for information and closed their doors tightly.
Soon after, the noise spread into Shangyang Palace.
The palace maids woke up in shock and fled in all directions, only to find that this group of people did not burn, kill or loot as they had imagined.
Most of the time, you'll be fine as long as you stay away from them and don't provoke them.
And a few...
A man came in and wanted to steal the gold and silver from a palace maid nearby, but was stabbed away by a woman with a spear and died instantly.
Lei Nian'er shouted coldly: "We must obey orders and keep our promises. Anyone who makes mistakes for personal reasons will be punished by military law, just like this person!"
After that, no one dared to distract their attention to irrelevant people.
The noise outside had not yet spread to Ganlu Palace, and Bei Jingyu was persuading Lei Ning to let them in.
"When your king or father is ill, as a son you should serve him at his bedside to show your filial piety."
"General Lei has no evidence to prove his words. He only said that His Majesty has ordered that outsiders are not allowed to enter Ganlu Palace."
"Is it an oral order or a false imperial decree?"
Lei Ning remained unmoved and instead released a piece of news.
"Your Majesty has woken up and said he would not see the King of Qin. Please go back."
"Your Highness must be aware of the consequences of disobeying the order."
Bei Jingyu, who had been able to endure and maneuver, was completely thrown into disarray. The emperor had woken up, and he knew that his actions over the past two days were tantamount to his own destruction.
Unexpectedly, he led his men to try to force their way in, and threatened: "General Lei, you can also see the physical condition of His Majesty."
"How long can you remain the emperor's favorite? Don't you consider your future and your Lei family relatives at all?"
"Every palace gate is now guarded by my men. You have no chance of winning. Even if you stop me, Your Majesty will not live long."
"If you let us in now, I promise you that your position as the Grand General of the Jinwu Guard will be as secure as Mount Tai."
"If you still resist, your entire Lei family will be executed!"
This sentence caused a trace of hesitation in Lei Ning's eyes.
Especially since his youngest son, whom he had been waiting for half his life, had not yet grown up...
But it was only a slight feeling, followed by determination.
"He is indeed a traitor and deserves death."
The fight between the two sides was very fierce, and the guards suffered serious casualties, but the King of Qin and others did not find a chance to break into the Ganlu Palace.
Bei Jingchu stayed in the dark for a while and looked at the sky. It was too late to wait any longer.
It seemed that she didn't have the luck to find a bargain, so she took her people and walked out.
"The King of Qin plotted treason, murdered the crown prince, and also intended to rebel against his father and kill him."
"Everyone, follow me to save me, kill the corrupt officials, and clean up the emperor and his entourage!"
The familiar voice aroused the deep fear in everyone. They turned around and saw a girl in armor holding a red tasseled spear, leading a crowd of people.
It was like dark clouds from the sky rolling over.
While the Qin Wang's party was being captured, Lei Ning strictly followed orders and tried to prevent anyone from entering.
Another gun came at him and knocked him back two steps.
Bei Jingchu entered the Ganlu Palace without any hindrance.
Lei Nian'er held the gun in front of him and said, "Aye, your opponent is me."
"I told you that I have disliked you for a long time, but you don't seem to take it to heart."
......
Bei Jingchu walked into Ganlu Palace alone.
In the past three years, I have met the emperor very rarely.
Now I suddenly realized that he had an alarming amount of white hair.
For someone under forty, with the best doctors and supplements in the world to take care of her, even if she can't stay young forever, it's normal for her to look a dozen years younger than the average person.
But he looked as old as a man who knew his destiny.
Bei Heng was wearing casual clothes, sitting at the table playing chess alone.
Even when his bedroom was broken into, he remained calm and continued with his unfinished business.
After coughing twice, he called out, "The prince is here?"
"Sit down and play the next game with Aye."
When Bei Jing was in the first grade of junior high school, it seemed as if the three-year estrangement had never happened.
She has always been the crown prince trusted by the emperor and entrusted with important tasks, and the daughter who has been loved by him since childhood.
My eyes felt sore and I had an urge to cry.
But she immediately calmed down.
She had long ago mastered the art of not showing her emotions.
Having come this far, how could I be burdened by a little appearance of warmth?
"It's almost time for the morning court session. It's too late to play a game of chess."
Bei Jingchu dragged the spear and walked to a position two steps away from him.
"Father, since you are seriously ill, you should just take care of yourself and enjoy your remaining years."
"Let...I."
"Do it for me."
The last chess piece in Bei Heng's hand fell.
......
After a night of chaos, the ministers woke up in the morning and went to the morning court as usual.
But I was still feeling terrified.
But fear also has to come, because they must know the consequences after the chaos in order to gain a slight advantage.
The seat above the dragon throne was empty.
