After a while, King Mingze regained his composure, and the queen let go of her hand and said, "Now that your martial arts are cut off and your cultivation will never recover, I will put you under house arrest as long as I want."
Whatever you do, you have to do, and you should pass the decree to change the crown prince now."
"You should kill me. I will not change the crown prince."
King Mingze is also a tough guy who would rather die than surrender.
"Since the king is unwilling, then I have no choice but to make a decree."
Master Zhou said.
"You...you want to falsely convey my king's will?"
King Mingze was shocked.
"As long as it is stamped with the royal seal, then the will will be true."
Master Zhou said in a conspiratorial tone.
"You... are so vicious!"
King Mingze was so angry that he was shaking all over, but there was nothing he could do.
Just when Master Zhou was about to make a false decree, the eldest prince, who had been staring at the true elixir without speaking, suddenly spoke: "Father, this true elixir is your treasure. What do you want to do when you take it out now?"
To whom?"
"Lu Chen."
King Mingze thought for a while and said directly.
"Why not me? Why did you give it to that outsider? Are you crazy because you have been sick for so long?"
The eldest prince became angry.
"Because, I will never misjudge the person!"
King Mingze said firmly.
"What about me? I am your biological son. You would rather value outsiders than me?"
The eldest prince roared.
"I only value the longevity of the Yongming Dynasty. I will value whoever is beneficial to our country."
King Mingze said calmly.
"You're such an old guy, you can't give me the real elixir to anyone, I want it!"
The eldest prince snorted angrily and stretched out his hand to grab the true elixir fruit. However, his hand was in the air and he did not dare to grab it because King Mingze said something.
"The true elixir fruit is poisoned, and if you touch it you will die."
The eldest prince turned to look at King Mingze and asked coldly, "How to detoxify?"
"I will tell you when I am in a good mood."
King Mingze said calmly.
"If you dare not tell me, believe it or not, I will kill you!"
The eldest prince was so angry that he drew his sword and made a slashing gesture.
"No, Prince!"
"No, the eldest prince!"
The queen and Master Zhou were very anxious and quickly stepped forward to stop it.
King Mingze can be placed under house arrest, but not killed!
Otherwise, no one can bear the crime of regicide.
boom!
At this moment, a large hole exploded in the roof, and five figures fell from the sky.
These five people are all loyal guards of King Mingze, and the leader is the old guard.
"Your Majesty, I am humbled by my duty and my rescuer is late!"
The old guard forced Zhou Taishi and others to retreat with a sword, and protected King Mingze.
The other four guards immediately rushed up and stood guard around King Mingze. The swords in their hands were pointed at the ground. They all had stern faces, and they were half a step into the Yuan Dan realm!
The queen and the eldest prince were shocked. The appearance of the old guard might make them fail.
Master Zhou frowned, secretly mobilizing all his true energy, and prepared to take action himself.
"Why are you late?"
King Mingze asked.
"The queen summoned me to the harem because she had something important to do!"
The old guard glanced at the queen coldly, and then said, "When I went to the harem, I was ambushed. I knew that I had fallen into a trap. The queen was going to do harm to the king, so I came over and it was true."
"Take this king away."
King Mingze snatched the true elixir fruit and put it in his arms.
When the eldest prince saw this, he was angry and angry. The real elixir was not poisonous, and his father had lied to him.
"You wait to stop them with your life."
The old guard left a word to the other four guards, grabbed King Mingze, jumped into the air, passed through the big hole, and flew away quickly.
"Want to leave?"
Master Zhou kicked off his right foot and rose into the air, intending to catch up.
Unexpectedly, the four guards had been prepared and vacated in advance to intercept Grand Master Zhou.
"If you don't want to die, get out of here."
Master Zhou shouted loudly and did not want to get involved with these four people.
The four guards ignored Taishi Zhou's threat at all. They all looked determined and attacked Taishi Zhou fiercely.
"die!"
Grand Master Zhou was very angry and slapped a palm on the spot, but was blocked by four desperate guards.
"Someone is coming!"
Seeing that Master Zhou was being entangled, the eldest prince shouted quickly, and a group of palace guards loyal to him rushed outside the door.
"Kill those four rebellious guards!"
The eldest prince waved his hand, led his subordinates to attack, and instantly relieved Zhou Taishi from the siege.
The royal palace gate.
Not long after Lu Chen and Princess Mingyue entered the house, they saw the old guard carrying King Mingze flying rapidly, and there was a man chasing after him from the sky not far away.
"Father?"
Princess Mingyue screamed in surprise.
When the old guard heard this, he lowered his head and saw Princess Mingyue and Lu Chen!
The old guard immediately descended in front of Lu Chen and Princess Mingyue, put down King Mingze in his hand, and said to Lu Chen: "You are here just in time. The Queen, the eldest prince and Master Zhou are rebelling. You protect the king."
After that, the old guard held his sword and flew into the air to intercept the pursuing Grand Master Zhou.
The old guard and Grand Master Zhou were both strong men in the first level of the Yuan Dan Realm. They fought fiercely in the air, but the sky was dark and the ground was dark. Explosions continued and spread throughout the palace.
There was a big change in the palace. Countless guards came out and saw King Mingze sitting on the ground. They all came to pay their respects.
"The eldest prince has rebelled. Please help me put down the rebellion!"
King Mingze remained calm in the face of danger and issued majestic orders.
Unexpectedly, the 30,000 palace guards looked at each other in shock and no one responded.
Most of the guards are from the eldest prince. Some people know that things are going to change in the palace and the eldest prince may take action. Even if it is the order of King Mingze, they are not so willing to obey.
What's more, King Mingze has not yet recovered his cultivation, so it is difficult to convince the public, and many guards have different thoughts.
"All palace guards, come here!"
At this moment, the eldest prince appeared with a group of guards.
After getting rid of the four guards loyal to King Mingze, the eldest prince also pursued them without stopping.
Hearing this, many guards sided with the eldest prince.
"Don't follow the eldest prince in rebellion!"
King Mingze shouted loudly, but he could not stop the guards who were disloyal to him. Two-thirds of the 30,000 guards left in an instant.
There were only about 10,000 guards left who were still loyal to King Mingze.
"Father, you are going away from the general trend, do you still want to resist in a corner?"
The eldest prince said.
"King Protector comes out of the palace."
King Mingze is not that stupid. His eldest son has already taken control of the palace. Once a war breaks out, all the guards around him will die.
As long as they leave the palace, there are still tens of thousands of guards at hand. If they can contact the army outside, there may be a chance to make a comeback.
"Close the palace gate!"
Following the eldest prince's order, the gatekeepers who were loyal to the eldest prince immediately closed the palace door and set up spiritual arrows to prevent anyone from flying in the air. King Mingze was unable to fly.
"I didn't expect that I, Mingze, who lived a heroic life, would actually give birth to a rebellious son. It's hateful and ridiculous!"
Seeing that his retreat was cut off, King Mingze lost all his thoughts. He raised his head and smiled, with tears in his smile, feeling extremely sad.
After a while, King Mingze lowered his head and said to the guards who were loyal to him: "You go, you don't need to be buried with me!"
"We will protect the king to the death and fight to the last man!"
Tens of thousands of loyal guards swore an oath before the battle.
"Father, hand over the true elixir and come back with me. You can enjoy your old age in peace!"
