Chapter 460 Died before leaving the army
The clouds drifted by.
They slowly gathered together.
It accumulated more and more, growing thicker and thicker, until it became a dark cloud.
The sun gradually disappeared into the clouds.
The once clear sky suddenly became covered with dark clouds, and the dark clouds loomed over the city.
In an instant, lightning flashed and thunder roared, shaking the heavens.
This made the already tense atmosphere even more so.
The ministers were on tenterhooks, their eyes glued to the door.
After the thunder, the doors of the Fude Temple creaked open, and footsteps could be heard from inside.
Everyone held their breath and couldn't help but look up.
A woman in a crimson dress and with a stunningly beautiful face suddenly appeared before everyone.
In an instant, it made all the flowers pale in comparison.
Princess Yuqing, surrounded by eunuchs, strolled towards them.
Everyone held their breath at that moment.
Those few who had seen Princess Yuqing before were still amazed by her beauty upon seeing her again.
Most people were seeing Princess Yuqing for the first time, this pearl of Daliang, a stunningly beautiful woman.
Their eyeballs looked like they were about to pop out.
At this moment, what Cui Yan wanted to do most was to gouge out their eyes.
Prince Chen looked up in surprise: "...It's you?"
"What do you mean 'it'?" Princess Yuqing stood in front of Prince Chen and raised her hand: "Get up, there's no need to give such a grand salute to my elder sister."
King Chen: "..."
I cursed under my breath, but still quickly got up.
He thought the person who came out would be the Empress Dowager.
He looked at the palace doors behind Yuqing, which had closed again, and said coldly, "What have you done to Father?"
"What do you mean I did something to my father?" Princess Yuqing did not answer him directly, but instead glanced at the ministers behind him, her gaze falling on Cui Yan and Prince Jing, who were tied up.
King Jing looked at his sister pitifully and said, "Sister, save me."
"You good-for-nothing, how did you get kidnapped?" Princess Yuqing rolled her eyes at him, then looked at Cui Yan.
If her eyesight wasn't failing her, Cui Yan smiled at her.
If you can still laugh, then you're alright.
Princess Yuqing stopped looking at them and turned to Prince Chen, raising her eyebrows slightly: "I haven't asked my fourth brother yet, what does this mean?"
"Trying to force the emperor to abdicate?"
"How can this be called a coup? Royal sister, quickly hand over Father. I might spare your life out of brotherly affection."
"If you want to see Father Emperor, go see him yourself. He's right behind that door." Princess Yuqing snorted and pointed to the vermilion palace gate, speaking defiantly.
Prime Minister Yan was an impatient man. He didn't understand that now that everyone was here, it could be said that the entire palace was under their control.
Why is His Highness Prince Chen still so timid and hesitant?
"Your Highness, let's finish this quickly. That man in the north has always admired the princess, so perhaps..."
Upon hearing this, Prince Chen's eyes lit up, and a slight smile appeared on his lips as he thoughtfully looked Princess Yuqing up and down.
Then he leaned close to her and whispered, "Sister, the King of the Northern Barbarians has always been thinking of you. After all these years, he must really like how you look now..."
Before she could finish speaking, Princess Yuqing slapped her hard across the face.
Before everyone could recover from Princess Yuqing's radiant expression, this slap left them stunned once again.
It is said that the more beautiful a woman is, the more poisonous she is.
Even a princess of a country is no exception.
Without a word, he slapped him across the face, and quite hard, leaving a mark on Prince Chen's face.
Everyone was sighing.
"How dare they collude with the enemy and betray their country! Everyone has the right to kill them!"
Princess Yuqing casually drew the sword from the guard beside her.
He thrust the sword down.
Caught off guard, Prince Chen was forced back several steps, thinking that Yuqing's sword was aimed at him.
But why can't I feel any pain?
He looked down and saw that he had no sword, but Yan Xiang had fallen down beside him.
A sword was stuck in his chest, and blood was flowing freely.
Yuqing's sword was plunged into Yan Xiang's heart!
"You...you actually killed him, how dare you!" Prince Chen stared wide-eyed at the man on the ground.
"Oh no! I missed. I meant to stab you, not him..." He emphasized the word "you" and made a lingering sound.
Princess Yuqing covered her mouth, stared wide-eyed, and looked astonished.
His expressions were so exaggerated that even Cui Yan couldn't help but laugh.
That's too pretentious.
After Yuqing finished speaking, she stepped forward, reached out and pulled out the sword. Blood gushed out of Yan Xiang's chest, hissing and bubbling.
The courtiers were so frightened that they retreated repeatedly.
They thought Princess Yuqing was a noble peony, but she turned out to be a red datura coated with poison.
Just moments ago, Prime Minister Yan was full of arrogance, but he collapsed without warning.
Even if he didn't pierce the heart, he would still bleed to death.
Princess Yuqing is truly ruthless.
Yan Xiang's eyes were wide open, and blood was dripping from the corner of his mouth.
Blood was also gushing from his chest, quickly soaking his clothes, and a puddle formed beneath him.
Prince Chen was too preoccupied with him at the moment to summon the imperial physician.
He was originally waiting to watch the show, waiting for Prince Chen to have Princess Yuqing tied up and sent to the Northern Barbarians.
As a result, he himself became the biggest spectacle.
Princess Yuqing is a madwoman.
The one who colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country was Prince Chen, so why kill him?
Prince Chen was also an incompetent man, always hesitant and timid, lacking any decisiveness.
Then Cui Yan and King Jing should be beheaded.
Keeping them will only bring trouble.
Especially Princess Yuqing, a femme fatale, should have been stabbed to death the moment they met.
Why worry about posthumous fame when you haven't even accomplished anything in life? How foolish!
He died before achieving his goal; that's a perfect example of what happens when you're not ready to fight.
He's already dying at this point.
unwilling.
Unwilling!
Yan Xiang died with his eyes wide open, feeling as if he had bet on the wrong horse.
As one approaches death, the clouds part and the mountains come to a clearer view, revealing some things that become clearer.
His eyes were wide open as he stared at King Jing, pointing at him: "He... killed him..."
To catch the thief, you must first catch the king; King Jing is the key to victory or defeat.
But he no longer had the chance to say the rest of his words.
Prince Chen didn't listen to a word he said. He no longer wanted to send his elder sister to the Northern Barbarians; he only wanted to kill her.
His hatred wasn't something that just started now; it had been building up over time.
As a child, because his mother was of lowly birth, he became the least favored and most humble prince in the palace. No brothers or sisters paid attention to him, and some even bullied him.
Only the Crown Prince would give him a second glance, play with him, and bring him delicious food.
But the Crown Prince was physically weak, yet he preferred playing Cuju (ancient Chinese football).
They often fall and get injured due to physical exhaustion.
Even though it was his elder brother, the Crown Prince, who took him to play, everyone blamed him. The Empress scolded him, and his father disliked and ignored him.
The elder sister went even further, forbidding the Crown Prince from seeing him again and taking the Crown Prince away from him. Without the Crown Prince, he became the prince who was wantonly bullied again.
From that moment on, he understood a principle.
You can't rely on anyone; you have to fight for what you want yourself.
