Before Prince Rui finished shouting, he lost his voice, and a sword had already penetrated his chest.
The most powerful man in Xizhao Kingdom died under the siege of the Forbidden Army with one careless move.
Even when he died, he didn't wait for those masters who he spent a lot of money to raise in his house, and he never died in peace!
King Rui died, and all the courtiers were in mourning. Prime Minister Li and King Xian were filled with ecstasy.
Their biggest opponent, the opponent they thought would take all their efforts to eradicate, just died like this? It's really a bit like a dream.
The two of them had smiles on their faces and turned to look at each other excitedly, but the moment they met their eyes, they stopped smiling. After all, they were also enemies.
The Forbidden Army has already tied up the Xiling Feather that they think is fake. If one accidentally confuses the two Xiling Feathers, it will not be fun.
King Xian and Prime Minister Li now did not bother to interrogate the child's true identity and only ordered:
"Put him in jail first and keep him under strict supervision."
If they hadn't been curious about where this child who looked exactly like Xiling Yu came from, they might have killed him directly.
The child was so frightened that he couldn't stop shaking. He was taken down. When he passed by Xilingyu, he gave him a pitiful look as if he was asking for help.
The moment Xilingyu met his eyes, for some reason, he suddenly felt a pain in his heart and had to turn away and stop looking at him.
Why does this child seem to be carved from the same mold as him?
"Your Highness, there are now civil rebellions all over the place. I thought that I could send General Xu Guangda to suppress them."
Prime Minister Li did not forget the plan he had agreed with Jun Lingyun, and immediately proposed it to Xilingyu.
When the wise king heard this, he secretly sighed that Prime Minister Li was really cunning! However, he was happy to see the success.
After the two most difficult ones are dealt with, and then Xilingyu is eliminated, he can legitimately inherit the throne.
Prime Minister Li prides himself on being smart, but he doesn't know that fists are the last word. So what if he has the support of all civil and military officials? If Xilingyu is not alive, how can he let Qi Qi succeed to the throne?
The wise king was thinking about the pros and cons when he heard Xiling Yu order:
"General Xuanxu enters the palace!"
"Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince."
When General Xu saw the palace door finally opened in front of him, he anxiously grabbed the person who came to deliver the message.
"how's it going?"
"General Xu, it's done. His Highness the Crown Prince is inviting you to the palace."
If it's done, then King Rui is dead? Haha, everything went so smoothly? General Xu Guang was so happy that he actually asked Prime Minister Li to confirm it, and he captured King Rui so smoothly.
He wanted to see the results with his own eyes, so he left the messenger and went into the palace.
"Prince Xian, Prime Minister Li, and the rebellious ministers and traitors were really captured?"
General Xu Guang had followed their line of sight and saw a pool of blood in front of him. Finally seeing it with his own eyes, he felt that this trip was going too smoothly.
The wise king did not answer, and Prime Minister Li looked at Xilingyu.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is here. General Xu, you are rude. Your Highness the Crown Prince is very grateful for General Xu's contribution."
Xiling Yu felt a little cold in his heart. Prime Minister Li was pretending to be respectful to him at this time, and he actually forgot that he had threatened him in private before to obey.
General Xu Guang's originally excited face gradually stopped smiling. Does he need the gratitude of a young boy like Xiling Yu?
When he takes over the kingdom of Xizhao, it will not be too late for Xilingyu to express his gratitude to him again!
But here were not only him, Prime Minister Li, the wise king, but also all the civil and military officials of the imperial court. General Xu Guang lowered his head slightly.
"Prince, it's because the lower official is blind and didn't see you."
His disdainful look fell into the eyes of Prime Minister Li, but Prime Minister Li felt contempt in his heart. Soon, he would end up like King Na Rui.
Xilingyu glanced at the guards around him from the corner of his eye, then plucked up the courage and raised his eyes to look at General Xu.
"General Xu, there are widespread rebellions among the people now. I hope you can lead the troops to put down the rebellion."
General Xu Guang's expression changed. Xiling Yu, after discussing with Prime Minister Li, was going to burn the bridge across the river?
"Prince, don't worry, your subordinates will send their men to exterminate them."
Although Xilingyu was scared, he reiterated seriously:
"Instead of sending his men, General Xu Guang went there in person. This is an order!"
General Xu Guang gradually raised his eyes and looked directly at Xilingyu. The ferocity in his eyes made Xilingyu swallow unconsciously.
Prime Minister Li stepped forward at the right time.
"General Xu, how can you be so rude to His Highness the Crown Prince? Why don't you quickly accept His Highness's order!"
General Xu Guang turned his eyes and looked at the people present. No one was better than him in kung fu.
Outside the palace, his soldiers have surrounded the palace openly and openly. Xiling Yu, King Xian, and Prime Minister Li are all here.
If he was really obedient, led his troops to leave the capital, missed such a good opportunity, and allowed the young prince to take the opportunity to ascend the throne as emperor, it would be much more difficult for him to seek to usurp the throne again than it is now.
Xu Guang suddenly smiled sadly and quickly pulled out a signal.
"Chirp!"
A red signal shot up into the sky. Outside the palace gate, Xu Guang's two thousand elite soldiers saw the signal and rushed into the palace with swords raised.
The guards in the palace were frightened and resisted with all their strength.
Upon seeing this, Prime Minister Li hurriedly took a few steps back and shouted at the imperial army:
"Escort, protect His Highness the Crown Prince!"
The other courtiers even screamed and hid far away to avoid suffering unforeseen disasters.
General Xu Guang sneered with crooked lips. Escort? Is it too late?
With one lunge, he was already about to grab Xilingyu's neck. With just a little force, he could cut off his life!
The wise king was not only frightened, but also excited. Xu Guang had rebelled against him! Great! In this way, he could be strangled openly.
However, Prime Minister Li was afraid that his attempt to fetch water from a bamboo basket would be in vain. Seeing that the commander of the Imperial Army was not as fast as General Xu Guang in rescuing Xiling Yu, he took a deep breath.
"Save the prince quickly! Save the prince quickly!"
But he saw that General Xu Guang's hand reaching out to Xilingyu had been kicked away by the guard next to Xilingyu!
General Xu Guang had a proud expression on his face, but after feeling the numbness and sharp pain on his arm, he instantly became vigilant.
When did Xilingyu have such a master beside him? He has made a choice, there is no way out, not to mention, he doesn’t want to retreat!
Attacking again, the guard protected Xiling Yu behind him. He fought with him, a general who had experienced hundreds of battles, but he did not fall behind. He was quite able to do so with ease.
While attacking, Xu Guang asked:
"Who are you?"
Bai Xiao turned sideways to avoid his knife, his eyes stern.
"He's the one who sent you to hell!"
Prime Minister Li was overjoyed. Jun Lingyun was indeed the God of War. A single bodyguard beside him could actually resist the powerful General Xu Guang.
The commander of the Forbidden Army joined the battle. The other Forbidden Army could not intervene, so they went to fight General Xu Guang's elite troops.
The Xian Wang frowned slightly. He thought that Xiling Yu would not be able to escape death at that moment.
He would then be able to reap the benefits in the name of being an escort. It would be logical for him to accept the order in the face of danger and inherit the throne. Not only would he be able to ascend the throne smoothly, but he would also gain a good reputation.
But with this guard in the way, he has to find another way to get rid of Xilingyu. Trouble!
