Chapter 1114: Final Volume: The Emperor's Conspiracy [24]

"What? Your Majesty, your Majesty is dead, dead?" When the two guards heard Shangguan Shengmin's words, they were all stunned.
They all turned around and looked at where Nanny Pan was.
"Yes, you can kill us to avenge the emperor.
But have you ever thought about the consequences of doing this?" Hongwen asked.
Shangguan Shengmin clenched the weapon in his hand and stared at Hongwen angrily without saying a word.
"Sir Shangguan, you are a smart man. Now the emperor has evaluated the rebels of the fifth prince.
If the people of the Fifth Prince find out that the Emperor has passed away, think about it, what will be the consequences?"
Seeing that Shangguan Shengmin was silent, Hongwen continued: "Although the fifth prince has been imprisoned, his power is still there.
Once they find out that the emperor has passed away, won't the country change hands instantly?
Don’t you want the empire that the emperor managed to hold to be taken away by others?”
Hongwen looked back at the deceased emperor behind him,
He then turned to look at Zi Jin, who was lying unconscious in a pool of blood. He hesitated for a moment, then swung his knife and chopped to death the two remaining guards.
Seeing this scene, Hongwen was slightly startled, and then he raised the corners of his lips and smiled: "Sir Shangguan is indeed a sensible person."
"I'll let you go for now, but Hu Zijin and her bastards must stay."
Shangguan Shengmin pointed at Zijin who was lying in a pool of blood and said coldly.
"No..." Yu Wenmingxuan was about to stop him, but Hongwen reached out to stop him.
"It seems that what Shangguan is thinking is the same as what I am thinking."
Hongwen turned around to signal Yu Wenmingxuan not to be impulsive, turned around and said with a smile: "The news of the emperor's death must not be leaked out in a short time.
But there is no airtight wall in the world,
After Lord Shangguan has eliminated the remaining power of the Fifth Prince,
The news of the emperor's death can be announced to the public.
At that time, the next heir to the throne will be the top priority."
At this time, Nanny Pan had already closed the door of Laiyi Palace again and walked up slowly.
Standing side by side with Shangguan Shengmin, he looked at Hongwen and said slowly: "Keep talking."
Hongwen raised the corners of his lips slightly, half-smilingly, and continued: "Although Qifan is not a dragon,
But this secret, except for a few of us in the house, is completely unknown to outsiders...
