The people in the Prince's Mansion were fully mobilized, the capital was under martial law, and officers and soldiers were hunting everywhere. Everyone was facing an enemy. The originally bustling capital seemed to have become an empty city in a day, and the streets in the city could not be seen except by the officers and soldiers. to anyone.

All businesses seem to have closed their stores, and the autumn wind is bleak, which makes everyone feel bad.Every household closed their doors tightly, for fear of getting into trouble.Some ministers were even more disturbed, and everyone knew that it would be their turn after this.

The ministers who had good relations with the king of Chu were the first to be investigated, because the emperor did not order these ministers to be dealt with, so the crown prince did not do anything to them.

"How's the situation?"

"Reporting to the prince, the king of Chu was not found." The officer who came back from the search said.

"Where's Chu Palace?"

"All the people in Chu Palace have been controlled, and nothing has been found." The soldier said respectfully.The prince nodded, waved for people to step back, and then looked at You Yan who had been following him all along.

"You Huage is worthy of being the number one in the world of intelligence. Even if you hide a person, the king can't find it." The prince laughed.You Yan said slowly, "The prince is serious. As long as you give the prince time, I believe you can find the king of Chu."

The prince was silent, he could indeed find King Chu if he was given time, but he didn't know how long it would take. "The time has come for this matter. It is best not to waste time here. I have no intention of prying into your secrets. I just want to know where King Chu is."

You Yan whispered an address, which is the secret contact point of Huage. The prince nodded and continued to lead people to search. After one day's search was fruitless, the next day he personally led the soldiers to search for it, and finally found it in a residential building. OK, and then found the king of Chu hiding here.

At this time, King Chu's army had already reached ten miles outside the capital, but was stopped by the Prince's army.There are only tens of thousands of forbidden troops in the city. Although some of them obey the orders of King Han, most of them are still loyal to the emperor.Now the king of Chu has become a traitor.His army was again stopped outside the city.The trend of the times, it seems that the prince's overall situation has been settled.

The prince and his party rejoiced, but the king of Chu was naturally terrified.

The king of Chu has always been favored, why did the emperor order to arrest him?And why is there no movement in the harem?

When the crown prince came to the residence, it was the time when King Chu Xiaoyao was on fire. The king of Chu had already been tortured in the past few days. The prince suddenly didn't recognize who the bloody man in front of him was. The romantic and suave king of Chu.

Seeing the prince, King Chu smiled and said, "Brother, you are finally here. You have finally reached this point."

"You -- what about you?" The prince was stunned.King Chu got up from the ground, wiped the corner of his mouth tremblingly, and said with a smile, "Brother, why don't you try the taste of Xiaoyaosan?"

Because of being tortured every day for the past few days, King Chu only felt numb, and he also felt that the medicinal power of Xiaoyao Powder was decreasing little by little.Otherwise, he didn't have the strength to speak at all, and he had exhausted all his strength just to control himself.

"Father ordered me to take you back, you should go back with me, otherwise---" the prince said.

"Go back? Am I still alive?" King Chu laughed. "Brother, don't waste your time talking, I won't go back."

"If you don't go back now, I will still kill you." The prince said angrily, "I have already dealt with the guards around you, so what else can you rely on. Come—"

The soldiers behind the crown prince were about to step forward, and the king of Chu wanted to resist, but he had exhausted his strength in speaking, so he could only hold his hands and wait for death at this time.

The soldiers were getting closer and closer to the king of Chu, but the people behind the prince suddenly said loudly, "No, back quickly." Then they pulled the prince back with one hand.

The roof above King Chu's head suddenly shattered, and then a person flew into the room in response, and the soldiers in front were instantly cut into several pieces by the sword energy, and blood splattered everywhere.

"It's you."

"Ziqing." The surprised voice of the prince and the surprised voice of the king of Chu appeared at the same time, and it was Ziqing who had been missing for a few days.Ziqing quickly turned around and helped King Chu to do it.

"Your Highness---you---" Ziqing's eyes flashed with heartache.King Chu smiled and said, "It's okay, nothing will happen in a few days. Are you okay?"

"I'm fine!" Ziqing said.

The prince smiled and said, "The people around the second brother are indeed loyal, and they rushed back to die at this time. Let me ask you again, are you willing to arrest him without a fight?"

"Brother, I won't go with you." King Chu said, "You can kill me."

"Okay, then don't blame the brother for not being brotherly." The prince smiled and said, "Come here! Set fire to this place. The archers are ready, and if anyone comes out, they will be shot."

"Yes!"

The king of Chu coughed a few times, and said with a smile, "I have nothing to say about success and defeat. I just hope that my elder brother will not settle accounts with Qiuhou in the future."

"Second brother, don't worry, I won't go back on what I promised you." The prince said loudly.

"Bang..." Ziqing waved his sleeves, the door of the room was closed, and then the flame was ignited, and the fire took advantage of the wind to quickly protect the entire house.

In the room, Ziqing was hugging King Chu. They hadn't seen each other for a long time since King Chu asked Xiao Luoyu to take him away.It's just that I didn't expect to see the King of Chu, but the King of Chu was tortured like this.

Ziqing was careful not to touch his wound, and said slowly, "I'll be back sooner."

"How can I blame you for this? No one thought that the other party would give me Xiaoyaosan." Chu Wang smiled, "It seems that it is not the first time that you accompany me to die. After a lot of practice, it may become a habit in the future." He couldn't see Ziqing crying.

"I don't want this to go through the test of time."

The flames grew bigger and bigger, and finally swallowed this place.The beams of the house collapsed, and the huge dwelling quickly fell down.A few hours later, only a pile of ashes remained in the original house.

The prince and others have been guarding outside until the last flame is extinguished.It was only then that thousands of people were sent to check, not to mention that it was a corpse, everything in the house had turned into dust, not even a trace of it.

"Since ancient times, the royal family seems to have no family relationship at all. Father and son kill each other, brother Xiao Qiang. This is fine." The prince said, "We have come to this point, and now none of us can turn back. Let's go."

The prince did not go back to the palace, he asked someone to bring back the news that the king of Chu was dead to the palace, and he went back to the prince's mansion, and ordered the officers and soldiers in the city to withdraw.The order of the capital was reorganized.And there has been no news from the palace.

As soon as the martial law in the capital was lifted, countless horses and chariots came outside the prince's mansion. Everyone knew that the prince was the next emperor, and there were no accidents.

But the prince didn't see anyone, and sent everyone back.

Until the early morning of the second day, someone in the palace sent a message to ask the prince to enter the palace to face the saint.

The prince put on court clothes and rode to the palace.

The emperor was still lying on the bed, skinny and out of shape, but his spirit seemed to be much better than the previous few days.There is also some look in the eyes.People came and went in the bedroom, and there was a strange medicinal fragrance everywhere.

"Meet my father." The prince stepped forward and kowtowed.

"Is it Zun'er?" the emperor asked in a low voice.The crown prince paused, this was the first time the emperor called his name these days, he quickly walked a few steps on his knees and said, "It's my son."

"Go forward and let your father take a good look at you." The emperor said, got up, walked to the bed and knelt down.

"Zun'er, where are you---your second brother?" the emperor asked.The prince bowed his head and said nothing, the emperor's eyes widened, he took the prince's hand, and asked in a hissing voice, "Where's your second brother?"

The crown prince kowtowed and said, "My son has obeyed my father's will, my second brother refused to come back with my son, and now I have obeyed the law."

"Did he die, didn't you kill him?" The emperor said, his voice suddenly became much quieter, with a trace of despair. "You really killed him. He is your younger brother, how can you do it?" The emperor took the prince's hand with strength and said angrily.

"Father, please calm down. I don't have the intention of killing my second brother. I just acted according to the order. I don't know what's wrong?" the prince said quickly.

"Where is it wrong---" looked at the head of the bed, and then smiled wryly, "You are right, it is Zhen, it is Zhen!" He did not let go of the hand holding the prince, and beat the bed with the other hand.

"It was my mistake, I killed my own child." The emperor choked up, but his cheeks were so thin that he looked even more frightening now. "It's because I believed in the wrong person, and let your brothers kill each other. It's because I believed in the wrong person!"

The prince took the emperor's hand and said anxiously, "Father, calm down and be careful of the dragon's body."

The people in the hall fell to their knees, but there was no sound. The whole hall could only hear the roar of the emperor, but mixed with these coughs, it was more like the roar of a dying person.

"It is true that you are wrong, but is it really just because you believed in the wrong person?"

A person walked in from the outside, the prince turned his head, and the emperor turned to look at him, but there was still a trace of fear in his eyes.The man walked in and said, "I didn't expect that you still didn't realize your mistake at this time. It's someone else's fault."

The prince was shocked, "You---how are you---how come you are here."

"Why can't it be me?" The man smiled, seeming to like the prince's expression very much.

"Today, the emperor is invited to deliver an edict. The crown prince falsely passed on the imperial edict to murder the king of Chu. First, the crown prince will be abolished, and the king of Han will be replaced as the crown prince. Announce it to the world." The man said.

Then he looked at the prince and said with a sneer, "You can sit in the crown prince's position. There are still many people who support the king of Chu. In this battle for the throne, everyone only knows you and the king of Chu. They are both heirs of the Tian family. It’s fine, but I can’t.” The man was Han Wangdao.

"You don't think you are excellent in terms of concubine and concubine. How can you achieve great things?" the prince said angrily. "So there is no distinction between honor and inferiority, do you want to rebel?"

"Not outstanding? Rebellion?" King Han laughed, "Look here, who is in charge?"
