Chapter 503
"Father, please don't wrong my son, I was also forced to come here by King Cheng." Zhao Yuanqi said.
The emperor supported the pillar to stand up, raised his hand and slapped him severely, and cursed: "You rebellious son! You are my own son! How dare you join forces with King Cheng to plot rebellion? You are not afraid that I will cut off your head!"
A slap mark quickly appeared on Zhao Yuanqi's cheek.
He sneered and said: "Since this is the case, I will simply make it clear to my father. This time, King Cheng has been planning for many years, and most of your so-called loyal guards and courtiers have taken refuge in him. Father Your Majesty, you think you are a wise king, but in fact, you are cowardly and lustful, and have no achievements in government affairs. Although I hate the prince, I have to say that if the prince and the king of Qin hadn’t supported me all these years, the Great Zhou Dynasty would have collapsed long ago!”
The emperor's face turned blue and white after being scolded.
He trembled all over and roared, "Presumptuous!"
"So, you should obediently hand over Yuxi, it will be good for you and everyone." Zhao Yuanqi said slowly, "Otherwise, the blood in this palace will never end."
"I will never hand over the jade seal!" The emperor roared, "Get out!"
Zhao Yuanqi spread his hands: "Then there is nothing to say. In less than an hour, the first corpse will be delivered. As for whether it is a female family member of an official's family or your emperor's grandson, father, you have to be careful Prepare."
He turned and left.
The emperor was so angry that he almost lost his breath.
Concubine Liu Gui supported him, also weeping silently.
Things have come to the point of betrayal.
However, it is impossible for him to just give up the throne.
King Cheng's patience is limited.
After one hour was up, he directly ordered someone to kill the wife of Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, and asked someone to carry the body to the door of the emperor's bedroom.
There was no movement in the bedroom.
King Cheng sneered.
The emperor may be able to sit still, but the officials and ministers who have imprisoned their female relatives cannot sit still.
Sooner or later, they will unite to force the palace.
Sixty or seventy female family members were locked in a room, and the crying rang out.
Just when King Cheng's subordinates came to arrest the second person, a figure appeared in front of him, and then he didn't know anything.
"Your Highness, let me open the door." Xu Hu whispered.
Zhao Yuanjing rummaged through King Cheng's subordinates, found the key, handed it to him, and said in a low voice: "Xu Hu, I will leave all the people to you, and you will protect the officials and family members well."
"What about yourself, Your Highness?"
"I'll go find Yun Dai and Yan'er." Zhao Yuanjing's eyes were deep and cold.
He turned around in the palace, but couldn't find Yun Dai's shadow. There are only a dozen corpses of nuns and maids in Pingle Garden. The only consolation is that Yun Dai and Yan'er have not been found so far.
Zhao Yuanjing was worried that they would be imprisoned elsewhere by King Cheng, and he was always anxious.
His patience was almost at its limit, and he wished he could run wild and kill someone.
He planned to go back to Pingleyuan to look for clues, or arrest someone for questioning.
"Your Highness, you must be careful." Xu Hu said.
Zhao Yuanjing nodded, and went back to Pingle Garden in the dark.
But he met Wei Jintai in Pingleyuan.
Wei Jintai learned from Jin Lan that the prince had entered the palace, so he followed him in. He searched like a headless chicken, but couldn't find it, and was worried that the rebels would find out, so he had to use the most stupid way to find the prince. Pingle Court crouches guard.
Unexpectedly, he was really waiting.
