Compared with his own situation, what Jiang Yan did not expect was that the person who appeared in front of him was not someone else, but Emperor Tian Zuo who had been poisoned and died!
"Su Kou, what's going on? Didn't you say he was dead?" Jiang Yan asked hurriedly.
"How can this be"
Su Kou personally diagnosed Emperor Tian Zuo. Unless his father, who was known as the Medical Immortal, was still alive, he would definitely die.
Is he still alive?
As soon as Su Kou had such an idea, he shook his head and denied it. He saw with his own eyes that his father was besieged by the priests of the White Sun Cult and buried in the East China Sea.
Zhao Suixian saw with his own eyes that Zhao Zongchang fed Emperor Tianzuo a poisonous pill. Even if he was not dead, he would definitely not be like this now. His face was radiant and there was no sign of death at all, which made people feel a little overwhelmed.
“The reason is no longer important, what is important is what to do now”
The struggle among the four sons for the throne was so fierce that three people in the Daxuan Imperial City lost their lives, and now only he is the last one left.
Unexpectedly, after they fought tooth and nail to determine the winner, the emperor was still alive. Their bloody fight seemed more like a joke.
"Jiang Yan, I really saw you right." Emperor Tian Zuo laughed very proudly.
"It turns out you were secretly fueling the flames."
There were many questions in the past, but with the appearance of Emperor Tian Zuo, everything has the most reasonable answers.
"I think I understand the whole story now!"
Su Kou sorted out everything in Daxuan City in his mind and guessed the only remaining possibility. From the time Emperor Tian Zuo called everyone to Daxuan City, this was a huge plate of
A chess game, a trap full of dangers.
"When I was diagnosing Emperor Tianzuo, the injuries on his body were indeed serious and serious. It is said that they were old injuries from the Jiazi Gengxin year."
"Jiazigengxinnian? My father?"
Jiang Qian was immediately connected with his father Jiang Fengwu. Back then, Jiang Fengwu took revenge and massacred the clan members of the Daxuan royal family. All nine clan kings died violently. He also assassinated the emperor several times. Although he failed to succeed, he left a great legacy for Emperor Tianzuo.
Serious injuries.
In addition, Lei Huaji, the leader of Wufu Palace, entered the imperial city in anger. Although he did not kill the emperor, he made Emperor Tianzuo's old wounds more fatal.
"Probably, he has been taking human pills to extend his life since then. But the more times he takes human pills, the effect will become weaker and weaker.
From the Ten-Human Pill to the Hundred-Human Pill, and finally even the family alchemy was no longer able to survive. At that time, there was only one way to continue to rely on the Human Pill to survive."
Su Kou looked at Zhao Suixian, who had a sad smile on his face.
"Don't worry about my feelings, you can just say that if he wants to continue his life now, he can only use my son to make elixirs."
"Suixian, how can you speculate on your father like these outsiders? This makes me very sad." Although Emperor Tian Zuo said this, there was only joking in his expression.
"It's easy for you to kill us now. Why don't you let me speculate on the causes and consequences, and please clear up your doubts? After all, I don't want to be a fool," Jiang Yan said.
"Whatever, I have plenty of time now"
"As Su Kou said, Sui Xian, Zhao Qingyang, and Zhao Pingcheng are the best candidates for refining the human elixir because of their profound cultivation. However, these three people all have backgrounds in the Eighth Palace, and their relationship is very deep, so of course you will be wary.
Using the position of prince to let the four princes fight, you can reap the benefits and stay out of the matter, but you didn't expect that the battle between the Wen Mansion and the Confucian Mansion would be so fierce.
The struggle between scholars and scholars weakened the intensity of the struggle for the prince, so at this time you deliberately fell ill.
Before you passed out, you passed the title of prince to Zhao Qingyang. Everyone thought you were an old fool, but this was actually your most brilliant move.
Among the eight mansions, Mo Mansion has the lowest status and is the school that most needs the throne to increase its influence. You can predict that they will spare no effort to help Zhao Qingyang in order to become the emperor. This is why Mo Mansion made an unprecedented move. The three terrifying old men
The craftsman enters the imperial city.
You were also worried that the Xumi Mansion would be concerned after seeing the Mo Mansion's menacing attack, so you secretly killed Zhao Pingcheng, kidnapped Shenxiu, cut off their escape route, and framed the Mo Mansion as the blame.
After the three old craftsmen of the Mo Mansion trapped the great monk of the Xumi Mansion, you secretly handed over the Emperor Xuan Order to Zhao Zongchang, giving him another chance to fight, in order to intensify the struggle for the throne.
In order to survive, you have to let your four sons jump into the big net you have carefully laid out, and then one by one become your human elixir!"
"Wonderful, wonderful, but where is the evidence?"
Emperor Tian Zuo was not stupid. Jiang Yan wanted to trick him into admitting it, but naturally he would not admit it on his own initiative. Without evidence, no one could do anything to him.
"However, I ordered Zhao Rang to hand over the Emperor Xuan Order to my son Zongchang. The Wen Mansion and the Confucian Mansion were in a fierce battle and could not intervene. My son Zongchang did not have a powerful helper like you, so I could only hand over the Emperor Xuan Emperor Order to him secretly.
.
It’s a pity that in the end he still failed to fight you, and even lost his life in the effort.”
This was Emperor Tianzuo's only regret. Three of his four sons were alienated from him. Only Zhao Zongchang stayed by his side since childhood, and there was still some tenderness between father and son.
But even if there is still a chance to choose, Emperor Tian Zuo will still do it.
"It is said that the current Emperor Daxuan has a cruel temperament and uses despicable methods to do anything. Today I have seen it."
As the saying goes, a tiger's poison will not eat its young, but Jiang Yan could not have imagined that a father would actually set up four sons to fight to the death, and he would secretly add fuel to the flames.
"Many people have advised me that your knife can hurt the enemy as well as the hand, but so far, what you have done far exceeds my expectations.
You played an important role in getting rid of Zu Dashou. You single-handedly kept Sui Xian from being eliminated in the competition for the crown prince position. Now that you have killed Cao Lili, you have relieved me of my major worry!"
When Chen Cao'an listed Cao Liang as the first threat, Emperor Tian Zuo felt that it was making a fuss out of a molehill, but when he found out that it was actually a fake master who had become enlightened, he was actually shocked and broke into a cold sweat.
If Cao Li is not dead, even if he appears, it will not help.
Fortunately, without Jiang Yan, Emperor Tianzuo's arrangements would not have been implemented so smoothly. Therefore, Emperor Tianzuo was in a good mood and everything was developing in the best direction.
"Don't worry, I won't kill you, but you have to keep my traitorous son."
Zhao Suixian clenched his fists tightly, and finally slowly released them. His whole body relaxed, as if he had made some difficult decision.
"Jiang Yan, why don't you and Su Kou leave first?"
"Of course we must go together if we come together."
"This is a grudge between our father and son. I don't want to involve you."
"What nonsense are you talking about? If Wei Ruanruan knows that I left you here alone, he will have to tear me apart. After all, you are a scholar of the Wen family." Jiang Yan also chose to stay.
"Yes, I am a scribe..."
Jiang Yan felt that something was wrong with Zhao Suixian's mood.
"If I do anything to disgrace the Wen family in the future, not even you, not even myself will forgive me!"
