"Is everything arranged?"

"Don't worry, it's absolutely foolproof!"

"Well, I'm afraid tonight will be uneven, but if we succeed, glory and wealth will definitely be indispensable!"

"It has been planned for so long, and it will definitely not fall short at this time."

...

"Be smart tonight, I'm afraid there will be big changes."

"Yes, everything is arranged according to plan."

....

"Let's contact the person who arranged it. Don't let anything go wrong."

"yes!"

"Have all those idiots taken the bait?"

"Judging from the current situation, everything has been carried out according to the plan. I think there will be no problems."

"Very good, let's get down!"

....

Although the news of the emperor's critical illness was extremely closely guarded, there was no telling how many people were inside the palace.

Often if one message is conveyed, countless people will know about it.

There was a bit of sadness on Lu Qiping's face. With his status, it was completely impossible to say that he didn't feel anything.

Everything feels wrong in the imperial capital today.

Some ministers were also extremely nervous, and the atmosphere in the imperial capital had become tense to the point of freezing.

Lu Qiping looked at his house and saw that there were servants and some female relatives.

The two granddaughters have been sent to Lu Chensheng, so there is nothing to worry about.

Thinking of this, Lu Qiping breathed a sigh of relief again.

Because of today's situation, he suddenly felt that his previous decision was indeed the right one.

"I don't know what's going on with Lu Er now. It's better to come back later."

Lu Qiping sighed slowly.

When I raised my head, I saw a dark cloud slowly drifting across the sky, covering the sun.

"Master, someone from the palace is here and they want to invite you to the palace."

The servant outside quickly ran in and said something.

Lu Qiping nodded, tidied his clothes and went out. Before going out, he warned everyone not to go out at will.

Afterwards, Lu Qiping arrived at the palace in a sedan chair and met other ministers directly in front of the gate.

Those with lower official positions were not included in the call.

"Depending on the situation, I'm afraid something big is going to happen today."

A minister who was close to Lu Qiping said something worried. Lu Qiping nodded, looked around, and did not dare to say more.

"Let's go into the palace."

After saying that, he walked towards the palace with the other party.

Night then slowly fell, and at this time, the palace guards also began to undergo a series of changes, but outsiders did not know it at all.

The emperor was lying on the hospital bed, looking like he was out of breath and out of breath.

"His Royal Highness is here!"

A sharp voice sounded, and then Jiang Tongyu stepped into the room with an extremely anxious face.

"Father, how is father now?"

Jiang Tongyu's face was full of anxiety, he looked at the imperial doctor beside him and asked urgently.

"We are still undergoing treatment, the situation is..."

The imperial doctor wanted to speak but stopped.

Jiang Tongyu was happy when he heard this, but his face was full of sadness and anger.

"Father!"

"The second prince has arrived!"

Another sharp sound sounded, but the sound was much lowered, for fear of disturbing the emperor inside.

Jiang Zixiao also stepped into the house with an anxious look. After glancing at Jiang Tongyu, he also eagerly asked about the emperor's body.

Such a scene made Jiang Zixiao's face darken slightly, but then he returned to his original state.

This younger brother seems to really care about the throne. If that's the case, don't blame him for being ruthless!

Apart from the two princes, there were also many concubines standing by with sad faces.

As time passed by, the atmosphere in the whole room became more and more depressing.

The ministers who belonged to the camp of the two princes naturally looked a little solemn.

Lu Qiping, on the other hand, was relatively calm, but his face was still a little solemn.

Of course, those of them who don't have a standing position don't have much pressure at this time.

But it is also inevitable to settle accounts after the fall.

I just hope that the prince who comes to power is not that kind of narrow-minded person.

On the dragon bed, the emperor's face was as pale as paper, and his mouth opened and closed as if he wanted to say something.

The personal eunuch on the side came closer, wanting to hear clearly what the emperor was saying, but the next moment, the emperor's breath died and he was no longer alive.

The imperial doctor on the side was horrified when he found out. He quickly massaged the human body and pricked it with acupuncture.

After tinkering with a cup of tea, I finally found myself exhausted and fell to my knees directly on the ground.

"Your Majesty, he died!"

After a cry of mourning spread far away, the ministers and concubines outside suddenly fell to the ground.

"emperor!"

At this time, everyone was shouting together.

Even the leading prince also knelt down.

When the second prince on the side saw this, a ruthless look flashed in his eyes, he pulled out a dagger from his sleeve and stabbed Jiang Tongyu straight into the head.

This scene happened so fast that everyone screamed in surprise.

Jiang Tongyu looked at his younger brother with disbelief. He never thought that his younger brother would dare to assassinate him in front of so many people!

"Someone has come and surrounded this place. No one is allowed to leave without my order!"

Jiang Zixiao looked at the bright red stain on his hands, and his expression became more and more ferocious.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of footsteps outside. From the sounds, it seemed that a large number of people were gathering.

Only then did everyone realize that Jiang Zixiao had taken control of the Imperial Guard.

The Imperial Guards came very quickly, and in an instant they surrounded the place several levels inside and outside.

Jiang Tongyu is not dead yet, but he is not far away, and the dagger is still on him.

"You, how dare you..."

Jiang Tongyu's face was full of disbelief. He wanted to question the younger brother in front of him, but found that he had no strength to speak.

Jiang Zixiao was full of excitement, "You didn't expect that I had already controlled the ban..."

call out!

A sharp sound sounded, and the next moment, the feathers on the arrow were still trembling, but the arrow had already penetrated Jiang Zixiao's body.

Jiang Zixiao was blown away heavily by the arrows and fell next to Jiang Tongyu.

Jiang Tongyu subconsciously turned around and saw Jiang Jinjing holding a bow and arrow, leading the imperial guards to surround the place.

"Second brother, you actually dare to hurt the crown prince. Third brother has no choice!"

At this moment, Jiang Jinjing no longer had his usual kindness, but instead looked at the people in front of him with a serious face.

Everyone's minds went blank, and they all stared at this scene in a daze. It wasn't that Jiang Zixiao controlled the Imperial Guards, but how come looking at the situation now, it was the third prince who controlled the Imperial Guards?
