1444 The final winner, the 14th Prince Zhou Jing!
Thinking of this …
Looking at eunuch Wen who was standing on the side, Emperor Huiwen asked, ” “Are you all ready?”
Eunuch Wen did not know why he asked this question, but since Emperor Huiwen had spoken, as a servant, he had to answer.
He bowed slightly and replied,”I’ve already prepared everything. There won’t be a single mistake.” In addition, the famous people and those with great attainment have all arrived. They arrived at the inn yesterday and should be in the palace by now.”
“Yes.” Emperor Hui Wen nodded.
His irascible heart calmed down a little, but he was still worried.
The main thing was that nothing had happened during this period of time, like last night.
Shen Yulu had already brought the reinforcements of the flying snake Clan over. However, in the short time that she had been in the palace to see him, a shocking change had happened. Except for the higher-ups of the Teng sect, everyone else had been killed. The entire flying snake Clan had been wiped out, not even the soup was left.
After the incident.
Shen Yulu and the Teng clan were like madmen. They used their divine powers to search frantically. Even with the help of the Imperial court’s troops, they still could not find the murderer.
Before this.
No matter what happened, Emperor Hui Wen had never felt so uneasy before, and it was only during this period of time that he felt this way.
He took a sip of the tea to calm himself down.
He put down his teacup and looked at Taoist master Chen Gong. “What about you?”
Taoist master Chen Gong didn’t know what Emperor Hui Wen was worried about. Everything was already prepared and under their control. As long as Xiao ran and nether prison dared to make a move, they would be suppressed immediately. Why did they need to do anything unnecessary?
He glanced at Emperor Hui Wen and thought that today was his sixty-sixth birthday.”He’s old, no longer as brave as he was when he was young! The great Zhou Empire really needs a young Emperor to lead the country out of its current predicament. Then, they can sweep across the Xia country, unify all the major forces, and dominate the fantasy realm continent.”
Although he thought so in his heart, he did not show it.
Xiu Ji bowed and said respectfully, ” “Don’t worry, Your Majesty. I’ve already made the necessary preparations! It’s absolutely foolproof.”
“Yes.” Emperor Hui Wen nodded.
This time, he was completely relieved.
After a while, he asked again, ” what about old fourteen? ”
everything is ready. Everything is going according to your plan, Your Majesty. Daoist priest Chen Gong continued.
Upon hearing this.
This time, Emperor Huiwen’s heart was completely calm. He sat on the Dragon Throne and patiently waited for the arrival of noon.
……
In the space.
Xiao ran and sword 12 took in the situation in the palace that was reflected in the mirror.
“Isn’t Emperor Hui Wen’s courage too small? They’ve actually dispatched so many people this time.” Xiao ran mocked.
The nether guard and the Imperial Guards of the Imperial Palace, as well as the eunuchs, had set up an inescapable net with the Imperial Palace as the center. Whether it was in the sky or on the ground, their people were everywhere.
Except for them.
Even Emperor Huiwen’s trump card Army, the Yushen guards, was dispatched and deployed in the inner palace.
The men of the Yan Shen guards were fully armed, with only two eyes exposed. They were wearing black battle armor and were accompanied by a special punishment blade. This blade was extremely sharp and tough, far more than three times that of ordinary weapons.
The most important thing was that it could withstand the spiritual power and not be destroyed by it. It was very powerful.
Moreover, the conditions to be selected for the flame God guards were also very abnormal. Every member was a strong expert, and only after passing through many tests could they enter.
But now, nearly 500 yanshen guards had appeared in the inner palace. As for whether there were still more hidden in the dark, it was still unknown.
Without waiting for sword 12 to speak, Xiao ran continued the previous topic and said, ” “Do you still remember the last time Emperor Huiwen wanted to appoint a Crown Prince?”
“Yes.” The 12th sword nodded.
“You’re saying that he will announce the crown prince’s candidate at his 66th birthday today?”
“Be more confident, remove the” negative “part.” Xiao ran said.
not to announce the Crown Prince, but to directly appoint the Crown Prince!
Sword 12 did not answer immediately. He thought about it seriously. The princes were either dead or imprisoned. Even if they were still alive, their forces had been secretly eliminated over the past few days.
Emperor Hui Wen was really shameless. He was the one who killed them, but he threw the blame on netherworld prison, saying that it was done by the people of netherworld prison.
Even if these princes didn’t believe it and wanted to investigate in secret, they had no power at their disposal and could only bear with it. They appeared to be well-behaved and didn’t dare to act rashly, for fear of attracting the suspicion of Emperor Huiwen.
The remaining princes, including the first Prince, were still alive, and their forces had not been weakened, but they were no longer a threat.
The situation in the capital was completely in the hands of Emperor Huiwen.
If at this moment …
If they dared to make a move and jump out alive to deny his orders, Emperor Hui Wen only needed to say a word and they would be imprisoned in the Imperial Clan Court, making it impossible for them to free themselves for the rest of their lives. They would have to stay in the Imperial Clan Court until they died.
He understood everything.
“He’s really ruthless.” The 12th sword looked down on him.
“We’ve been dealing with him for a long time. You know how ruthless he is.” Xiao ran shrugged.
He spoke out the doubts in his heart.
“I’m very curious now, who does Emperor Huiwen want to make the Crown Prince? Among the remaining princes, it seems that the first Prince’s momentum is the greatest. The other princes are either too small or have average power, or they’re biding their time.”
