Chapter 603 Defection
The ministers from the DPRK confronted the imperial guards at the door of the dormitory. No matter what these ministers said, they were prohibited from entering.
"My lords, my father must be in danger. Today, I will be the villain. I must see my father before I can feel at ease. If the queen mother really obeys my father's order, I am willing to bear all the responsibilities.
But I am not sure about my father's safety, so I have trouble sleeping and eating. "
The Seventh Prince Xiao Luo stood up and spoke impassionedly. Many ministers agreed, and they all said that they must see the emperor today.
Marquis De'an didn't want to take this step, and in the end it was the only step left.
It's just that this time, they forced the palace in the name of saving the emperor.
Even if the emperor really wakes up, he can't blame the Li family.
Moreover, it was impossible for them to wake up the emperor.
After the Seventh Prince finished shouting, an army appeared and fought with the imperial troops guarding the palace.Among the ministers who came today, a small number were from Marquis De'an, and they had discussed with Marquis De'an what to do.
The rest were people who were concerned about the emperor's health. Some of these people were emotional, and some felt that something was wrong.
Where did this army come from?
The Seventh Prince didn't give them much chance to think. The army had already defeated the imperial army guarding the door, and the Seventh Prince rushed in first.
The Queen and Yun Shang were both inside. When they saw the people outside, their eyes showed panic and they stood guard in front of the bed.
"Old Qi, the imperial doctor said that the emperor needs to rest, what are you doing?"
The seventh prince wanted to look past the queen to see the person on the bed, but he was blocked by the queen and Yun Shang and couldn't see anything.The seventh prince found someone to inject the poison. He knew how toxic it was, and logically the emperor should have died long ago.
The queen has never been seen. Is it because she is dead and is afraid of taking responsibility?
When he first entered, he didn't miss the panic in the eyes of the Queen and Yun Shang.
"Mother and Queen, I am worried about my father's safety. As long as I confirm with my own eyes that my father is fine, I will let my father and my mother do whatever they want."
"Your father——"
Before the queen could finish speaking, the seventh prince had already rushed over and pushed the queen away.
"Old Seven!"
"Father! Imperial Physician, where is the Imperial Physician? Tell me quickly, how is Father's situation?"
The seventh prince shouted excitedly, and the minister standing at the door could no longer bear it and rushed over, "Your Majesty."
"How is the emperor?"
The emperor on the sickbed was thin and pale, his face was blue, and his lips were a purple color. He breathed again and found that he was no longer breathing.
The emperor is dead!
The palace suddenly became chaotic. The people of Marquis De'an felt happy, but those who really cared about the emperor had sad faces.Although they were prepared in their hearts, they thought that at most they would be unconscious and hanging on for a breath.
Who would have thought that the emperor was no longer breathing.
"Seventh Prince, call the court ministers into the palace immediately..." Someone stepped forward to make arrangements, and then looked at Xiao Luo, "Seventh Prince, the emperor died under strange circumstances, we must find out the truth."
"Seventh Prince, you must find out the truth and catch the murderer."
Marquis De'an didn't show up in person, he had already made arrangements.
The seventh prince was the first to rush in, just to see if the emperor was dead. It would be best if he was dead. If he was not dead, he would insert the poison needle prepared in his hand into the emperor's body and let the emperor be poisoned to death.
Unexpectedly, the emperor was dead.
Now as long as the poisoning is blamed on the queen, the seventh prince can ascend to the throne.
Originally, Marquis De'an wanted the Queen Mother to take charge of the investigation, but the Queen Mother was rarely in the palace, and even when she came back, she would do nothing.Now that I am old, I have nothing to hope for except holding the emperor and crying bitterly.
The queen naturally wanted to argue, saying that she had already sent someone to find a miracle doctor who would definitely be able to save the emperor.
But no one listened to the queen. Some smart people noticed something fishy. Most people had already concluded that the queen poisoned the emperor.
Even if it was not the Queen who poisoned him, the fact that the Queen did not allow anyone to see the Emperor and concealed the Emperor's death was problematic in itself.
All the civil and military officials were waiting outside the palace gate and rushed in immediately after hearing the news of the emperor's death.
The seventh prince stood up and asked the queen to give an explanation. He also said that the person who had poisoned would be found on the spot.
"Mother, if it wasn't you and the Twelve Emperors who poisoned me, why didn't people see my father? If I wasn't really worried about my father's safety today, you would still have kept me in the dark!"
Xiao Luo questioned the queen in front of the ministers. Before the queen could speak, someone came out from behind the ministers.
"Brother Seventh Emperor, you haven't found out the truth of the matter yet, so you are rushing to convict your mother, but in order to cover up the fact that you poisoned your father?!"
The person who walked out from behind the minister was none other than Xiao Sheng.
The moment he saw Xiao Sheng, Marquis De'an thought to himself that he was afraid that Xiao Sheng would take advantage of him.
The Seventh Prince and the people of Marquis De'an looked shocked. Isn't the King Xian one of theirs?What is going on?
The newly appointed Prime Minister Mr. Liu stood up and said, "King Xian, you said that the seventh prince poisoned the emperor. Do you have any evidence?"
"Of course I have evidence."
Xiao Sheng walked towards the front calmly.
The seventh prince was completely stunned. After the shock, he became angry. He never expected that Xiao Sheng would switch sides at this time.
"Xiao Sheng, how could I have poisoned my father? You were clearly bribed by the Queen to join forces to frame me!"
The seventh prince was so angry that when he saw Xiao Sheng getting closer and closer, he wanted to rush over and kill Xiao Sheng.
Marquis De'an stared at Xiao Sheng tightly. He was actually deceived by Xiao Sheng.
Xiao Sheng said that he had enmity with Xiao Che, and it was absolutely impossible for him to join forces with the Twelve Princes and Xiao Che, so he wanted to ask the Seventh Prince to lend him troops.At this moment, it seemed that Xiao Sheng had colluded with the Queen and Prince Rui's Mansion to set this trap for the Li family.
Marquis De'an thought about whether the Pan family ended up with no descendants because of Xiao Sheng and Prince Rui's palace.
"The wise king is really good at planning."
He was already on guard against Xiao Sheng, but he still failed to guard against him. The moment he agreed to cooperate, he had already lost.
Looking at the queen again, she is indeed the daughter of the Zhou family, no less impressive than his old enemy.
The three brothers of the Li family looked ferocious. The reason why the Li family made such a desperate move was due to Xiao Sheng's instigation.Compared to the Queen and Prince Rui's Mansion, the person they hated more was Xiao Sheng.The impulsive third son of the Li family didn't care so much and rushed directly towards Xiao Sheng.
Even if he died, he would drag Xiao Sheng with him.
But before he could get close to Xiao Sheng, he was stopped by someone.
At some point, the army brought by the Li family had already aimed their weapons at the Li family.
Until this moment, there was no trace of panic in Marquis De'an's eyes. This army was what he relied on.Even if he was guessed by Xiao Sheng in public, he was not afraid. He had reached this point and the Seventh Prince must be allowed to take the throne today.
The palace is in his hands. If anyone refuses to accept it, he will kill him directly.
So after being exposed, he was just angry.
At this moment, his secret soldier pointed his weapon at him...
