The Crown Princess is reborn and returns to subvert the world
Chapter 478 The Death of the Late Emperor 1
Yan Henian, Xue Huai'en and other court officials just happened to hear the noise and rushed over. When they heard Jixiang's words, they were all stunned and looked at Guo Ziyi in unison.
Guo Ziyi shuddered in his heart. He didn't know why Jixiang knew about this. Obviously, no one knew that he had poisoned Emperor Li Kang.
"You are talking nonsense! I am loyal to the late emperor and have never had any evil intentions!"
"Hahaha, do you think everyone will believe you when you say this?" Jixiang pointed at Tian Qiquan on the side, "Guo Ziyi, you just called him the emperor in front of everyone! Could it be that you, Guo Ziyi, can be loyal to two emperors at the same time?!"
Yan Henian stepped forward immediately, "Guo Ziyi, what is going on? When he, Prince Duan, usurped the throne, you were clearly following the late emperor south, why did you call him the emperor?!"
"Yes, Guo Ziyi, you must give us all an answer to this matter!" Xue Huai'en also said.
Fu Shoutang looked at Guo Ziyi, his eyes full of inquiry.
The queen was indeed a man of great insight. She was able to dig out a seemingly loyal servant like Guo Ziyi!
Just as Fu Shoutang was thinking about it, he saw Jixiang walking towards Guo Ziyi.
Guo Ziyi seemed to be afraid of Jixiang and could not help but step back.
"Guo Ziyi, you have always been Sixth Uncle's man, right?" Jixiang looked at Guo Ziyi calmly and asked, "You appear to be loyal to Father, but secretly you are a chess piece that Sixth Uncle has arranged to be by Father's side. Your mission is to kill Sixth Uncle after he usurps the throne, so that he can hold on to that position!"
"You, you are talking nonsense!" Guo Ziyi retorted.
"Also, you were the one who arranged for Tuoba Hong to come to Beijing."
"No, no, Tuoba Hong was arranged by the third prince Tian Muqiong! It was their Northwest Army who wanted to seize the world!" Guo Ziyi refuted again.
Jixiang turned to look at Tian Qiquan who was silent on the side, "Sixth Uncle, do you think what Guo Ziyi said is credible?"
Tian Qiquan turned his head away, not wanting to answer Jixiang's words.
Jixiang sneered, "When Cui Hao and Tuoba Hong came to Beijing one after another, I really thought that these were all arranged by the third emperor. However, after Guo Ziyi showed his true martial arts, my thoughts changed."
"Empress, what is going on? Aren't Cui Hao and Tuoba Hong connected with the Third Prince? But the Third Prince has clearly taken control of the Northwest Army and is planning to enter the capital to seize imperial power." Yan Henian stepped forward and asked.
Jixiang shook his head, "I'm afraid we have misunderstood the Third Brother."
"The Third Brother took Cui Hao's military power. He must have known that Cui Hao was involved with Prince Duan. After Cui Hao's military power was taken away by the Third Brother, he was afraid that we would know his purpose, so he took the initiative and went to the capital to expose the Third Brother first."
"After experiencing Prince Duan's usurpation of power, we naturally believed that our third brother also wanted to seize the throne, based on Cui Hao's words. So we became wary of him, and the emperor even led an expedition to the northwest in person."
"In fact, this was a move by Cui Hao and Prince Duan to build a plank road in the open while secretly attacking Chencang. After they led the emperor out of the capital, they began to prepare to usurp the throne again."
Yan Henian, Xue Huai'en and others were surprised.
"Your Majesty, do you mean that Prince Duan and his men are going to stir up unrest in the capital again?" Yan Henian couldn't help but look at Tian Qiquan on the side. It was obvious that Tian Qiquan had been captured and expelled from the capital by the emperor, so when did he sneak back?
"But, but wasn't Prince Duan previously given by the Emperor..."
"Yes, the Sixth Uncle was indeed captured by us. The Emperor took into consideration the blood relationship between them and did not punish him for treason. Instead, he was demoted to a commoner and exiled to southern Xinjiang."
"I didn't expect that the Sixth Prince would return to the capital, and with the help of Guo Ziyi!"
As soon as Jixiang's gaze fell on Guo Ziyi next to him, Guo Ziyi shuddered with fear. He did not expect that Jixiang had already known about the actions between him and Prince Duan.
"You, how did you know?!" Guo Ziyi asked in a trembling voice.
"Haha, you don't really think that I would believe what Cui Hao and Tuoba Hong said, and think that their entry into the capital was pushed by the third brother behind the scenes? Although I have had quite a bit of contact with the third brother, I know that he is a man who values his country very much."
Jixiang turned his head and looked at Prince Duan Tian Qiquan who had been keeping his head down and not speaking, and continued, "In order to get rid of the surveillance of the Sixth Uncle and to see the Emperor, the Third Brother disguised himself as a soldier and followed Tian Muhuan's team south to take risks. If such a person wanted to rebel, he should have stood in line and shown his loyalty when the Sixth Uncle led his men into the city. Why did he go through so much trouble to go south and take risks?"
Yan Henian nodded after hearing Jixiang's words, "Your Majesty's words make sense. When the late emperor was alive, although Prince Qiong had coveted the throne under the instigation of Concubine Shu and Lord Kou, he was just coveting it and never did anything out of line with the late crown prince, Prince Chen."
Fu Shoutang and several officials also nodded.
"Yes, Prince Qiong occasionally creates some trouble for the late Crown Prince, but he does it openly and honestly, and never cultivates his own power in secret."
"Yes, the previous emperor's several princes did a good job in this regard."
Guo Ziyi sneered, "Lord Yan, as the Minister of the Dali Temple, it is too childish to say such things. Since ancient times, the royal family has been very heartless. Do you really think that with the former crown prince around, the other princes will not have the intention to fight for the throne?! Humph, as long as they are members of the royal family, I think there has never been anyone who doesn't want that position!"
"Didn't you all say before that the Fourth Prince was the one who had no desires and no ambition for the throne? But now, the one sitting on the throne is the one who has no desires!"
"So, no matter how nice and righteous you say to them, they want that position in their hearts, and no one can deny that!"
"That can't be a reason for you to rebel!" Xue Huai'en shouted, "Guo Ziyi, how did the emperor die when he was in Jiangnan?!"
Xue Huai'en mentioned the death of the late Emperor Li Kang again, and everyone's eyes immediately focused on Guo Ziyi.
"Yes, this is what we need to figure out most right now. Her Majesty just said that the death of the late emperor had a lot to do with you, Guo Ziyi. Could it be that you really killed the late emperor?!" Situ Changqing also asked.
Guo Ziyi sneered, "Yes, it's me!"
