"You little bastard, if you dare to plot against me, see how I deal with you."
Zhao Danyang snorted coldly in his heart.
At this moment, when everyone looked at Shen Mengtian, their eyes were full of teasing.
Everyone is waiting for Shen Mengtian to make a fool of himself.
However, something unexpected happened. Shen Mengtian ignored Zhao Danyang's question at all. Instead, he raised his eyelids lightly and said coldly: "Uncle Wang, is this kind of question something you should ask?"
Zhao Danyang's eyes turned cold: "How presumptuous, Shen Mengtian, don't think that you are the prince, you can say such disrespectful words. As the prince of the vassal, I, Zhao Danyang, care about the safety of the emperor. This is my duty.
Everyone present should also know that I, Zhao Danyang, have the best relationship with the Emperor, and now that the Emperor has been attacked and killed, I will naturally find the murderer and cut him into pieces!"
A vicious and angry voice echoed.
"Prince, what you just said is too much. After all, we are also vassal kings granted by the emperor. We are naturally qualified to intervene in the emperor's assassination."
Another vassal king spoke up.
At this moment, it was Hu Badao who spoke. His face was full of cheeks, his eyes were like an eagle, and he exuded a sharp aura.
"That's right, Your Highness, as the vassal king, we should fulfill our responsibilities as vassal kings. Therefore, this time, no matter what, we must find the murderer."
"Please also ask His Highness the Crown Prince to cooperate with us and strive to find out the murderer as soon as possible, bring the murderer to justice, and avenge the emperor."
"Your Highness, please answer us, did you see the murderer's appearance with your own eyes on that day?"
The whole hall was in chaos.
The twelve vassal kings surprisingly unanimously reached the same goal, which was to launch an attack together and cooperate with Zhao Danyang to form a siege against Shen Mengtian.
They all saw it. From the moment Shen Mengtian came in and took the initiative to sit in that position, Shen Mengtian had shown that he was determined to win the throne.
In this case, there is nothing to say. It is impossible for them to watch Shen Mengtian ascend to power without being indifferent. Therefore, the first thing they have to do is to disgrace Shen Mengtian first. In this way, they lose
He is a majestic prince, so how can he be qualified to succeed to the throne?
Moreover, now they not only want to wipe out Shen Mengtian's majesty, they also want to put part of the crime of the emperor's assassination on Shen Mengtian, at least it must be a crime of poor protection. Who made the emperor, after the assassination,
It was you, Shen Mengtian, who was the first to arrive at the scene.
The most important thing is that after you, Shen Mengtian, arrived, you took action, and even fought with the traitor who dared to assassinate the emperor. This is a key point for everyone to lay charges on Shen Mengtian.
As long as this crime is proven true, Shen Mengtian will not be able to take the throne. As for the other princes, in their eyes, they are just chickens and dogs, and there is no need to worry about them at all.
What these vassal kings want is to seize the throne, but they also know in their hearts that it is impossible for them to sit on this throne. Otherwise, no one will obey anyone. When the time comes, a war will inevitably break out. In this way,
On the contrary, it will give the royal family an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Therefore, what they want to do is to first suppress a capable and capable person like Shen Mengtian, and then support a person who has no ability at all to become the emperor, and they can use the emperor to control him.
The princes can hide behind their backs and act as their supreme emperor.
This was the consensus reached by the twelve feudal kings present in the shortest possible time.
Of course, it is unknown how long such a consensus can last, but at least in a short period of time, their goals are the same.
Since the goals are the same, it will be much easier to handle.
As soon as Zhao Danyang pointed his gun at Shen Mengtian, the other vassal kings began to support him one after another. As a result, Shen Mengtian suddenly became besieged on all sides.
"Your Highness, I don't know what you mean. It's clear that you and the murderer collided head-on, but you still let the murderer leave. What are your intentions?"
At this moment, a rich and majestic voice echoed.
The sound was like a dragon bell, striking on the spot.
Everyone's hearts skipped a beat.
The faces of the princes present also changed, and the way they looked at Shen Mengtian changed.
That look was full of anger and suspicion.
Because, at this moment, it was Li Zhongyuan, the veteran of the Three Dynasties, who spoke out.
This man is a veteran who has been loyal to the royal family all his life. Since he has spoken, he is basically right. This time, Shen Mengtian does have a problem.
"Prince, your father's death was not your fault, right?"
Suddenly, a deep voice sounded.
Everyone's eyes moved and they looked in the direction of the sound, and found that the person speaking at this moment was actually the eldest prince.
This is the earliest descendant born of the emperor.
Logically speaking, the eldest prince should inherit the throne of the prince, but no one knows what happened in the emperor's harem that night. The queen passed away on the day she gave birth, and the emperor immediately announced that the prince
