After returning from rebirth, the eldest sister of Hou family destroyed her household registration b

After saying this, Emperor Xiao slowly let go of Concubine Xue, held the sword in his hand firmly, and stood up again.

Qin Li immediately stood in front of Chu Huanyan and Xiao Jin to prevent Emperor Xiao from taking action again.

But Emperor Xiao only glanced at Xiao Jin, and the next moment he put the soft sword on his neck and spoke to the courtiers below.

"You all listen to me. No matter what the truth was back then, I was forced to death by Xiao Jinzhi today!"

"Your Highness..." Qin Li couldn't help but look at Xiao Jinzhi.

The emperor looked like he wanted to kill himself in public. What he said was obviously to blame everything on His Highness.

The courtiers also watched this scene nervously. Although they knew the truth, they all felt that the emperor had made a big mistake. But the best way is to have the emperor admit everything, write a confession, and then tell the world. If the emperor died like this, I don't know what kind of rumors would spread.

"Your Highness, the Emperor cannot die yet." Liu Changhan spoke immediately.

If the emperor dies now, all kinds of rumors will definitely be very detrimental to the emperor. Even if the truth of the year is made public, there will inevitably be doubts.

"Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince, the Emperor cannot die!" Some courtiers also hurriedly agreed.

Xiao Jinzhi held Chu Huanyan's hand, stood on the high platform, and looked at Xiao Emperor without changing his expression.

"Since the Emperor wants to die, let's do it."

Emperor Xiao frowned quickly, "Do you think I'm just trying to scare you because I don't dare?"

"No, since we have reached this point, committing suicide may be the best choice for the Emperor. After all, even if you kneel down and beg for mercy now, crying bitterly, I will never let you live again."

As soon as these words came out, many people present took a breath. His Highness the Crown Prince's words were clearly forcing the Emperor to take action quickly.

Emperor Xiao looked at Xiao Jinzhi, and after a long time, he suddenly laughed.

"Although it doesn't matter that you are the blood of the imperial brother, Xiao Jinzhi, you are more like me than the imperial brother. If it were you back then, you might not have made the same choice as me!"

He could kill Xiao Jinzhi regardless of his reputation and rumors, and Xiao Jinzhi is no different now.

But if it were Xiao Jingfeng, he would never do this. His imperial brother has occupied all the virtuous people. Everyone thinks that he is kind and kind, and he is a rare good emperor and king.

Even when he found out that he had been poisoned, he only made step-by-step plans to protect the child in Mei Fei's belly instead of trying every possible means to kill him first.

But how could the person sitting on the dragon chair be so kind and soft-hearted.

Xiao Jinzhi's eyes rose, not displeased by Emperor Xiao's words.

"Although I may not be like the late emperor, I will never be like you. No matter what choice I make today, I have a clear conscience. And the emperor, don't you really feel that you have done something wrong? After so many years, I have been dreaming about it in the middle of the night. At that time, can we meet our old friends calmly?"

When their eyes met, Xiao Jinzhi was still calm and calm.

However, the mockery and determination on Emperor Xiao's face cracked bit by bit in the eyes of the other party.

Dreaming back at midnight, meeting old friends...

No, he didn't want to meet his old friend at all.

When a person dies and his lamp goes out, where does the Huangquan Road come from, and where does the Naihe Bridge come from. He will definitely not see any old friends again.

Seemingly sensing Emperor Xiao's thoughts, Xiao Jinzhi chuckled.

"It turns out that the emperor is still afraid."

"No, I didn't." Emperor Xiao retorted subconsciously.

"Since there isn't, then let's take action. With just one sword, I may be criticized by others. It sounds like a very good deal to be accused of killing my father and killing my king. Xiao Jingyan, why don't you take action yet!"

Xiao Jinzhi's tone turned sharp and urged, making Emperor Xiao's hand holding the sword tremble.

He originally wanted to use his own death to retaliate against Xiao Jin, but the other party's indifferent attitude suddenly made him feel discouraged.

"It seems that I don't dare anymore." Xiao Jinzhi smiled mockingly and looked at Qin Li, "Send the Emperor on his way."

"How dare you!" Emperor Xiao subconsciously moved his sword away and pointed it at Qin Li defensively.

This appearance made the courtiers who were worried just now breathe a sigh of relief.

Xiao Jinzhi looked at him playfully, and after a while, smiled and shook his head.

"I've already given you a chance."

The hidden weapon in Xiao Jinzhi's hand shot out, hitting Emperor Xiao's wrist accurately.

There was a clang.

As the sword in his hand fell, Emperor Xiao closed his eyes. He knew that the last trace of his imperial strength had also fallen to the ground with the sword.

Perhaps he had reached a dead end from his situation to his psychology. At this moment, Emperor Xiao calmed down.

The moment Qin Li stepped forward, he suddenly turned around and bumped into the sacrificial bell and tripod prepared for the ceremony.

Everyone was quiet.

There was a "bang" sound, and blood splashed on the bell and tripod.

Emperor Xiao fell down.

At the last moment, he turned his head with difficulty to look at Concubine Xue. He didn't know what he was thinking, but there was a smile on his lips.

There was silence all over the high platform.

When the courtiers headed by Liu Changhan saw that Emperor Xiao really hit the cauldron and died, they were not only shocked, but many of them had complicated feelings.

On the high platform, Eunuch Zheng looked at the fallen Emperor Xiao, his head was filled with a flash of revenge and the pleasure of getting revenge, but this pleasure only lasted for a moment, and then turned into confusion and pain.

He waited for so long and finally waited until Emperor Xiao died, but his family could not come back after all.

When Xiao Jinzhi saw Emperor Xiao really crashing into the bell and cauldron, the hand holding Chu Huanyan trembled.

Even though he was an enemy, there was a time when he truly regarded the other person as his father.

Feeling Xiao Jinzhi's trembling at that moment, Chu Huanyan increased her strength and intertwined her fingers with him.

"Xiao Jinzhi, it's over."

No matter what happens next in the court, or how the people will discuss and view this matter, Emperor Xiao is dead.

They have been investigating for so long, planning for so long, and waiting for so long, and finally at this moment... everything has settled.

"Yes, it's over." Xiao Jinzhi said softly, "In any case, the revenge of the past has finally been avenged."

Half an hour later, all the courtiers had taken the antidote. Except for Liu Changhan and the others, most of them left Fengtian Hall with lingering fears.

Liu Changhan and the Criminal Department cooperated with each other and sorted out all the evidence very quickly.

Although Liu Changhan hesitated to make everything, including Emperor Xiao's death, public. But the commotion was so loud that it was naturally impossible to cover it up.

After asking Xiao Jinzhi for instructions and getting a definite reply, the next day, everything that happened that year and the death of Emperor Xiao were announced to the world.

As soon as this news came out, the whole city was in an uproar, and the entire imperial city almost exploded.

Everyone was discussing this matter crazily and exploring the various inside stories.

Prince's Mansion.

After Qin Li blocked the seventh wave of courtiers seeking to see him, Chu Huanyan sat next to Xiao Jinzhi in the back garden.

"It's been three days, it's time to meet."
