Eternal Life: My Millennia in the Jiaofang Division

In fact, from the moment Sheng Shulongchang entered the imperial study, and even from the moment he entered the palace, the old emperor's divine consciousness has been surrounding him, observing every change in his expression.

Just now, the old emperor threw out the memorial, and he also wanted to try to see if he could see some sudden flaws on Sheng Shulongchang's face?

But unfortunately, there was nothing abnormal on Sheng Shulongchang's face, and even the breath on his body did not fluctuate abnormally.

The old emperor didn't know he was disappointed, but he was relieved and snorted: "Isn't it you? They are all dead, and only you are alive?"

"What does father mean by this? Do you hope that your son will also be poisoned to death?"

A trace of pain appeared on Sheng Shulongchang's face: "My royal brother and others passed away suddenly, and I, as an elder brother, am also heartbroken."

"But just because I am alive, I am the one who killed my royal brother and others?"

"Then why didn't you die? Since the third brother poisoned all the princes, why did he miss you?" The old emperor's expression was still grim.

"How can you be sure that the third brother missed me?"

Shengshu Longchang suddenly shouted angrily: "Your Majesty, I think you know that I am the target of public criticism for my position as the crown prince."

"Over the years, although the second, third, and sixth brothers have had conflicts with each other, they mainly target me."

"Frame-ups, ambushes, poisoning, and curses, how many methods they used on me, and how vicious they were, don't you know?"

"Over the years, repeated assassinations have made me develop the habit of being careful and vigilant at all times."

"Last night It's the same. The third prince did not send someone to poison me, but I was lucky enough to save my life because I relied on the careful habit I developed over the years and discovered that someone had poisoned me in advance. "

"But now, father, you actually suspect that I poisoned my brothers. I really... I really don't know how to refute it!"

"If father really doesn't believe me, then just give me death. I have been so cautious for so many years, and I have lived enough!"

After saying that, Sheng Shulongchang knocked his head on the ground with a bang, waiting for the old emperor's reaction.

Looking at Sheng Shulongchang who was kneeling on the ground and refused to look up, the old emperor's eyes were cold and filled with a hint of murderous intent.

Although all the evidence at present can prove that the person who poisoned was the third prince.

But the old emperor was sure that it was the prince in front of him who really did it.

But what can he do? Really give the prince death?

Then the throne will be passed to other royal family members, which he never wants to see.

So even though he knew that it was Shengshu Longchang who did the poisoning, the old emperor could only pretend not to know and forcefully suppress the grief of his sons all dying overnight.

And he had to prove to everyone that the person who poisoned was the third prince, and that the prince was innocent from beginning to end.

Otherwise, how could a prince who poisoned all his brothers ascend the throne and convince the world?

In many cases in this world, the truth is actually not important at all.

Taking a deep breath, the old emperor said, "Okay, get up."

"Father, do you believe me?" Shengshu Longchang looked up.

"Of course I believe."

The old emperor sighed, "I just panicked and doubted you because I suddenly encountered a big change."

"In fact, if you think about it carefully, you should be the one who is least likely to do it. After all, killing all the brothers at once is equivalent to making everyone doubt yourself. You shouldn't be so stupid."

Unless, you do the opposite!

The old emperor thought to himself.

"Thank you for your trust, Father."

Shengshu Longchang stood up and said sadly: "Father, my brother and his family were poisoned overnight. This matter must be thoroughly investigated."

"Once the murderer is caught, the whole family must be exterminated to avenge my brother and his family."

"And father, the impact of this incident is too bad. The truth must be found out as soon as possible, the murderer must be severely punished, and a warning to others. Otherwise, won't anyone dare to murder the prince in the future?"

The old emperor nodded: "Well, this matter must be investigated as soon as possible. I will issue an order later. You will personally lead the investigation and everyone in the court will fully cooperate."

Let the murderer catch the murderer?

Old emperor, you don't even want to find out the truth!

Sheng Shu Longchang felt a little excited, but then he refused: "Reporting to the emperor, in the current situation, it is not suitable for me to personally investigate the murderer who poisoned my brothers."

"After all, I am the most suspicious person now. If I were to investigate, I am afraid it would be difficult to convince the public."

"So please send someone else to investigate, and I am willing to cooperate with you."

The imperial study fell into a long silence.

The old emperor stared at Sheng Shu Longchang with his eyes fixed on him, wondering what he was thinking?

And Sheng Shu Longchang kept his body bent, never getting up, waiting for the old emperor's answer.

Finally, the old emperor slowly said: "Okay, then I will send someone else to investigate."

"Thank you, father!"

Sheng Shu Longchang saluted again: "If you don't have any other instructions, I will take my leave first."

"Go!"

The old emperor said lightly.

Sheng Shu Longchang turned around and left the imperial study.

Watching his departing figure, the old emperor's face was uncertain, and suddenly his chest shook, and blood oozed from the corners of his mouth.

People are all made of flesh and blood. How could they not be sad when several sons died overnight!

At this moment, he was the only one left in the room, and the old emperor could no longer hold back the grief and anger in his heart.

Even the magic power in his body was instantly disordered, causing internal injuries.

"Shengshu Longchang, you are really my good son. You poisoned all my sons for the throne."

"But I can't kill you, and I have to willingly offer the throne. You are really... a powerful method!"

"What's more powerful is that you want me to send someone else to investigate. This is to confirm that I will definitely help you clean up your mess. Even if the truth is found out, it can't be made public, right?"

"Are you trying to get rid of yourself completely?"

"Okay, okay, that's fine. You have such a method, so you can sit firmly on the throne in the future. I'll pass this position to you!"

He said "OK", but the sadness in the old emperor's eyes became more and more intense.

Even the deep grief made his already old body deteriorate rapidly, and the breath of the five decays of heaven and man emanating from his body suddenly became several times stronger.

This means that his death date has been brought forward.

"Prince, you not only killed my son, but now it seems that you will also kill me in advance. It seems that you are really born to be an emperor."

The old emperor sighed helplessly, and couldn't help but think of the time when he ascended the throne.

At that time, I, with the help of my eighteenth brother, Beiyu Mingzun, not only successfully developed the most powerful force in the court, but also forced my father, the Holy Tree Canglong, to abdicate.

How high-spirited was I at that time?

At that time, did I ever think that I would end up like this?
