Absolute protagonist

22 Princes who stole the country 7 (1/2)

Late at night, in the west garden of the palace, in a side hall.

The emperor, the prince, the imperial concubine, and even the little transparent second prince are all locked up here at this time.

At this time, they no longer looked as glamorous as usual. Instead, they looked gray and disheveled. They were only wearing the thin pajamas they wore when they went out in a hurry at night. They looked extremely embarrassed.

Heavy footsteps sounded, and Xue Hai walked in from outside the palace. Blood dripped from his blade, and many blood drops spattered on his dark armor and cold face. The murderous aura in his eyes rose like mist, and he looked like a ghost chasing souls in hell.

His arrival brought a cool breeze, and the few people wearing only thin pajamas shivered in the cold wind.

The emperor's mind, which was originally dizzy with fear, finally woke up in the cold wind and began to run like never before.

Not long ago, they witnessed an unprecedented massacre. The man in front of him arrogantly used the name of the emperor to coax a group of royal family members into the palace, and then killed them all without saying a word. It’s really unscrupulous to the extreme! Pity the clan members who were coaxed into coming here, and they don't understand what happened until they die!

Then several people were imprisoned here.

Thinking of the sudden arrival of the Northern Flame Army, the fifth prince who clearly had control over the Northern Flame Army, and the inexplicable lunatic in front of him... the emperor's chaotic thoughts were finally brought into line. An answer emerged clearly in his mind.

——The fifth prince Jiang Hong wants to take the opportunity to usurp the throne!

Xue Hai didn't know how much the emperor had thought about in a short period of time. He walked over slowly and took out the long knife in his hand inch by inch. The sharp blade reflected the cold light and shone in his cold eyes. This made several people in the hall increasingly uneasy.

He was condescending and his eyes swept over several people unscrupulously, like a beast ready to hunt at any time, and would show its claws at the next moment.

"What exactly do you want to do?"

Once his thoughts opened up, the emperor was not as scared as before. He knitted his brows and stood up from the ground proudly, piercing his eyes with a sharp look, which gave him a rare hint of imperial majesty.

"You are killing the clan so unscrupulously, not even Jiang Hong can protect you!"

The Jiang Hong he mentioned was the fifth prince's real name.

Although Xue Hai's crazy behavior had frightened him a lot, the emperor felt calm after calming down. He never believed that the young man in front of him, who was suspected to be a subordinate of the fifth prince, really dared to kill his father! Most of his previous actions were to intimidate him, force him to submit, or even give way to the fifth prince.

He was about to tentatively put forward conditions when his expression suddenly frightened.

The young man in front of him had completely drawn out his long knife.

Qiang——

The long sword is unsheathed. For a moment, a chill filled the air, and on the shiny black blade, the solidified blood formed brown lines. The faint smell of blood wafted in the noses of several people, frightening the emperor's courage that he had just mustered up and was shaken away again. He took a few steps back and fell to the ground again.

Xue Hai then sneered, glanced at everyone in the hall with his dark eyes, and finally said: "Let me introduce myself, my surname is Xue. The Xue from Xue Family Village."

Several people in the hall looked confused.

Perhaps the lives of some ignorant people in a remote place like Xuejiazhuang are not worth caring about for a few big shots.

"Could it be that the imperial concubine doesn't remember that small mountain village that was destroyed by the butcher knife of the Northern Flame Army just because you casually said, 'Eradicate the roots'?"

Such an obvious reminder made the imperial concubine finally change her expression. Her face suddenly turned white, and her twinkling eyes were filled with ups and downs, leaving only fear: "How do you know? He Ying -"

"He is dead. He was killed by me." The young man's calm and almost cruel voice responded to her, "The other accomplices are all dead as well."

"And you all deserve to die too."

Whether it was the imperial concubine who secretly conveyed the imperial edict and ordered He Ying to kill people and silence her; or the third prince who repeatedly complained in front of the imperial concubine and aroused the imperial concubine's murderous intention, but he felt at ease; or whether he did not know the truth at first, But the emperor, who knew what the imperial concubine had done, was still determined to cover it up... Even just a few casual words to sow discord, but it aroused the evil thoughts buried deep in the hearts of the third prince, and indirectly led to the second prince... In From Xue Hai's point of view, everyone deserves their punishment!

Listening to his sentence-by-word declaration, which was like a judgment, several people in the palace couldn't help but break out in cold sweat, and subconsciously shrank back. And the cold sword light was already blooming in his sight.

The first person to bear the brunt was the emperor who had stood up before.

The light of the sword disappeared in a flash.

"No!" The next moment, the woman's scream sounded in the palace, and the imperial concubine who appeared in front of the tip of the knife at some point fell softly to the ground. There was still a deep disbelief in her eyes, and she stared behind her, "Your Majesty..."

The emperor did not respond. He turned away indifferently and let the woman on the ground lose her breath. At this moment, he showed unprecedented coldness.

The two princes looked at him in disbelief.

Over the years, the emperor's love for the imperial concubine was well known to the world. Even if the other party secretly mobilized the Northern Flame Army, he would laugh it off, not wanting to see the truth between life and death.

This coldness made them feel cold.

Xue Hai, who was watching everything happening, laughed happily as if he was enjoying a good show. He was even a little dissatisfied. The death of the imperial concubine seemed too relaxed and happy.

"That's enough. The real culprit is dead. This must be enough to calm the anger in your heart." After Xue Hai retracted his smile, the emperor stood up again with a serious face, "If you want to use this method to force I submit—"

Until now, he thought this was a prelude to the fifth prince forcing the palace to seize the throne and trying to bargain.

Until another flash of blood lit up in the palace.

After a while, the emperor's hysterical shouts rang out in the palace, mixed with great panic.

"Where is Jiang Hong? Where is that traitor? I want to see Jiang Hong——ah!!!"

"You...you don't dare! Don't come here! Killing your brother and your father is unacceptable! Do you want him to be reviled by everyone in the world? You are a traitor and a traitor——"

The sound became lower and lower until finally it disappeared completely.

There was silence in the palace, with corpses and blood mixed together. A young man in mysterious armor stood quietly in a pool of blood, his expression neither sad nor happy.

The night ignited by the fire flashed through his memory. He took a deep breath and relaxed his body, as if some invisible burden was lifted from his shoulders.

However, the resentful faces of those who he had tricked into the palace not long ago seemed to flash before his eyes one by one before they died, and Xue Hai's relaxed back became a little heavier.

He clenched the long knife in his hand, glanced at the corpses in the hall, and his eyes became firm again.

"...Your existence is the biggest obstacle to His Highness."

There are always some mediocre idiots in this world who judge their superiority based on their bloodline, and careerists who hold high such banners to achieve their own ulterior goals.

After all, the real fifth prince had been a hostage in Beiyuan for many years and knew many people well. Once one day, Chu Si's true identity is exposed, Xue Hai has no doubt that these two types of people will emerge in endlessly.

"As long as there is still a trace of blood in the Wei royal family, those people will not give up and will bring endless trouble to His Highness..."

"So, you can go on your way with peace of mind."

Xue Hai turned around without hesitation and walked out of the hall, his footsteps a little heavier than when he came.

Maybe he was just a narrow-minded avenger in the past, and his whole heart was filled with hatred.

But the various experiences along the way and Chu Si's subtle influence have greatly broadened his horizons and heart. Especially after joining the Northern Flame Army and accompanying those people to suppress the refugees, he witnessed with his own eyes the tragedy of countless families being destroyed and people killed under this decadent empire.

Xue Hai gradually understood that the tragedy that happened to him was just a common drama that was played out all the time in the world. His hatred is just a microcosm of the hatred of countless people in the world.

He wants to change all that.

And that His Highness is the best candidate.

Although the other party must have more treacherous secrets, and he may not even be the mountain village boy Ajiu he knew, but what does it matter?

Everything he had absorbed and learned from the other party for a long time made Xue Hai clearly realize that if there is one person who can completely end this dark and chaotic world, clarify Yunei, and create peace...it must be him!

And this is enough for Xue Hai to do whatever it takes.

——Clear all obstacles to the throne for the other party.

He wiped the blood on the blade and walked out of the side hall, his steps suddenly stopped.

Outside the side hall, the West Garden is filled with flowers. The falling snow-white petals flutter in the wind. Within three feet of the hall, unknown flowers and trees are lush and lush. There was someone standing under the shade of the tree, with black hair like ink and black clothes stained with frost.

The young man wearing a wooden mask looked here quietly, and the dark eyes under the mask seemed to be covered with a thin layer of morning frost.

The sky is getting brighter in the distance.

In the sudden morning light, Xue Hai, who had just walked out of the palace, couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly.

"Where are those ministers? They should still be alive, right?"

Chu Si's tone contained a slight smile as always, as if he didn't know anything.

Xue Hai's stagnant steps picked up again, and he said softly: "Your Highness, don't worry, those people are unscathed, at most they were a little frightened."

"Oh? Then let's go and take a look. It's still somewhat useful." There was a slight arc on his lips, and Chu Si took the first step to leave.

All the civil and military officials had already been driven into another side hall by Xue Hai. This palace was built with the sun behind it. The vermilion pillars under the shadow looked like they were stained with blood, and with the little blood stains accidentally stained on the steps, it looked gloomy. And cold and silent.

Chu Si stepped up the steps.

"By the way," when he was about to step into the palace, he suddenly turned around and said in a serious tone, "I have already planned some things."

He had never thought before that Xue Hai's almost crazy behavior actually came from the alternative expectations for him.

However, the future he planned was not like this.

Carrying another false identity and face for a long time, letting the name "Jiang Hong" shine because of him, is definitely not what Chu Si wants. not to mention--

"The dangerous building is about to collapse, and snakes and rats are infested with it. It is better not to destroy it but to erect it than to put paper everywhere."

In the east hall, a group of civil and military officials were imprisoned here for the whole night. The previous scene of Xue Hai's killing spree was still replaying in their minds, and their frightened heartbeats had not returned to normal until now.

The old prime minister almost fell ill from fright, and he still feels dizzy until now.

Mingzhe had been protecting himself for most of his life, but this time he stood up for his life, even betraying the king, but what he got in exchange was such an embarrassing result, which really made him unable to recover.

At this time, the door of the palace was suddenly pushed open, and a young man strode in. And the killing god who impressed them so much followed closely behind him.

"Fifth Prince..." Everyone looked at this little transparent prince who had never been taken seriously.

Someone couldn't help but ask: "May I ask where His Majesty is?"

"Of course he's gone."

The ministers were terrified and couldn't say a word. After all, they were just a group of cowards who were greedy for life and afraid of death.

Chu Si slowly stepped into the palace and looked at everyone with his hands behind his back.

His deep and calm eyes were like the abyss and the sea, and everyone's heart couldn't help but beat heavily with every step. Even if he didn't say a word, the unprecedented strong presence was like the sun in the sky and the Taishan Mountain covering the top, shocking everyone's mind.

The ministers in the palace were in a trance and knelt down in unison.
