His Majesty's chronic illness is not cured, and the two princes are fighting fiercely for the throne.

In order to compete for the supreme position, the eldest prince and the third prince should have fought back and forth, using all means and doing everything possible...

This is how the succession competition has always been, and the eldest prince and the third prince did just that.

But no one expected that the late emperor announced a series of decrees in the morning court yesterday, and then died in the palace in the evening.

There was no defense.

There was no edict of succession.

The prince was not in the capital.

Although the position of the prince of Qi was not as stable as that of the surrounding countries, the prince was the nominal heir to the throne. When the late emperor suddenly died and did not pass on the throne, the prince succeeded to the throne. This was reasonable. This was the ancestral system.

But the problem was that at such a critical moment, the prince was not in the capital.

The one who stayed in the capital was the third prince, who was already well-established in the court. If the crown prince succeeded to the throne, the third prince would surely die. This was beyond doubt.

The same was true in reverse.

It was late at night, and most of the people in the capital had fallen asleep. But when the bell in the palace rang, representing the death of the emperor, everyone from the dignitaries to the common people woke up from their sleep.

Qian Caishen hurriedly put on his clothes, and before he could button them up, he had already run out of the door and shouted, "Quick, prepare the car, go to Prince Feng's Mansion!"

At this time, the sedan chair of Cui Jiang, the Minister of Revenue, had already stopped in front of Prince Feng's Mansion.

When Qian Caishen arrived in front of Prince Feng's Mansion, there were more than ten sedan chairs parked on both sides.

"Your Highness should mourn less and put the overall situation first!"

"This is our great opportunity!"

"Your Highness, please give the order quickly!"

...

When the God of Money walked into the Prince Feng's Mansion, the Third Prince was surrounded by people. Everyone was excited and urged him.

Not long after, countless figures walked out of the Prince Feng's Mansion and disappeared in all directions.

After His Majesty's death and the Crown Prince's departure, only the Third Prince could preside over the overall situation.

On the night of the late Emperor's death, the Third Prince went to the palace overnight to arrange many matters.

On the second day, all officials gathered in front of the palace gate, and Shangshu Youcheng took out a "last will" and read it in public.

This is a decree of succession.

The decree said that the Crown Prince Zhao Zheng was not virtuous and was disloyal. The late Emperor abolished the Crown Prince Zhao Zheng for the sake of the people of Qi and the people of the world, and the throne should be passed on to the Third Prince Zhao Yi...

Whether this decree is true or false, most people are skeptical.

Before the prince left the capital, His Majesty praised him highly. How could such a will appear a few days later?

But the situation is different now. The capital is now firmly controlled by the third prince. Many ministers in the court also respect him as their master. Even the officials who were loyal to the prince before did not dare to stand up at this time. The prince left the capital at a critical moment, and the third prince took advantage of the opportunity to enter. These people are already in a difficult situation...

The previous emperor had just passed away, and the third prince could not succeed to the throne immediately, but he had obtained the military order with the edict of succession, which was enough to command 50,000 imperial guards in the capital. In addition, there were too many courtiers loyal to him in the court. In just one night, he gained control of the entire capital.

The capital, which had been turbulent for several years, seemed to have ended all the chaos in an instant and the dust settled.

Shengzhou, hundreds of miles away from the capital.

The prince, who had just wiped out the Holy Religion bandits and was riding on a horse, was full of vigor. When he received an urgent report from the front, his face turned pale, his body swayed, and he fell off his horse.

The guards on both sides hurriedly helped him up and shouted: "Imperial Physician, call the imperial physician!"

Fang Yu stepped forward and pinched Zhao Zheng's philtrum. Not long after, he coughed heavily and woke up.

Zhao Zheng's face was pale, and he kept muttering: "It's over, it's over, everything is over..."

He never thought that his father would suddenly die when he left Beijing.

Zhao Yi had already controlled all the situations in Kyoto. Everything he did, everything he imagined, and the throne he had been thinking about for a long time, all became a bubble.

Fang Yu shook him heavily and said, "Your Highness, you can't give up!" Zhao Zheng looked at him and laughed bitterly, "Zhao Yi must have controlled the imperial guards and the capital now. What can I do to fight him?" Snap! Fang Yu slapped him in the face, Zhao Zheng's mouth was bleeding, and he was stunned. "The third prince only controls the capital, only controls 50,000 imperial guards!" Fang Yu looked at him and said angrily, "You are the prince, the throne should be yours, he is just a traitor, a rebel, the capital has 50,000 imperial guards, but there are 150,000 troops outside the capital, where did you lose!" Zhao Zheng was stunned and finally understood. There are 200,000 troops stationed in the capital region, of which only 50,000 are in the capital, and the remaining 150,000 are scattered in various states in the capital region. After his father passed away, his men rushed here quickly. Zhao Zheng's reaction must not be as fast as theirs. If he can control all the troops in the capital region, 150,000 against 50,000, and with the help of the Holy Church, can't he take down the capital? He immediately took out a sign from his waist, stuffed it into Fang Yu, and said: "Emissary Fang, hurry up, hurry up, you must get ahead of that rebel!" "Don't worry, Your Highness!" Fang Yu took the sign and turned around and left.

After walking more than ten steps, a sneer appeared on his face. The capital must be captured. By that time, there would be no need for Zhao Zheng to exist.

The empress's plan is much simpler than directly helping Zhao Zheng to ascend to the throne.

The military disaster broke out very suddenly. The late emperor died. The third prince took the opportunity to take control of the capital's 50,000 forbidden troops. The eldest prince gathered more than 100,000 troops outside the capital, and the troops were directed at the capital...

Although the third prince was in an important place in the capital, he was cut off from his retreat. Faced with more than twice the number of troops, he could only rely on the danger of the city wall to hold on. If it were not for the important place in the capital and the large amount of food and grass stockpiles, he would not be able to resist. Soon...

The Gyeonggi area, which had always been stable, turned into a war-torn place in a short period of time. Although the eldest prince's army did not massacre the people like a foreign invasion, the forced requisition of grain and grass and the forced recruitment had already happened. Commonly seen.

Throughout the Gyeonggi region, people are in panic...

Shengzhou.

A man in purple clothes walked into a certain camp, bowed and said: "Dear Protector, all the armies have fallen into our control. Zhao Zheng is of no use to us anymore, why not..."

Fang Yu waved his hand and said: "No, no, no, we still need His Highness as a cover, otherwise we will have no name..."

Even though the Holy Cult has been operating in Qi for more than 20 years and has reached the peak of its power after Zhao Zheng completely delegated power, without Zhao Zheng, they are just like the three princes, just rebels. With Zhao Zheng, They are the teachers of justice...

As for the fact that after the capture of the capital, His Highness the Prince accidentally died of illness, fell to death while riding a horse, choked to death while eating..., only God could have predicted this.

Fang Yu looked outside the account, sighed, and murmured: "If there is a punishment from heaven, it is just to capture a city, so what's the difficulty?"

Capital.

All city gates in the southeast, northwest and northwest have been closed, the suspension bridge beside the moat has been raised, and the entire capital is on alert.

King Feng Zhao Yi has taken over the capital, but has not moved into the palace.

In Prince Feng's palace, all the officials and counselors had gloomy faces.

No one expected that the eldest prince would be so fast. In a very short period of time, he would control most of the troops in the Gyeonggi region and surround the capital.

Although they have more than twice the force, they are still unable to break through the capital, but the capital is now isolated and helpless, and they are wasting away like this. If the reinforcements are delayed, the city will one day be exhausted.

Looking back now, the prince left Beijing, His Majesty died, and the prince led his troops to besiege the city...

Before and after this whole thing, it seemed that there was always a pair of invisible hands fiddling with...

When Li Yi got the news, he was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses.

The emperor of Qi actually died.

Zhao Yi took control of Kyoto, but was made a dumpling by others. The eldest prince was a blessing in disguise. He only temporarily lost his throne. When Zhao Yi was killed, he would return to that position sooner or later.

Of course, these are what others have predicted.

Li Yi probably understood what the Taoist nun wanted.

What they want is the entire Qi State, and Zhao Zheng and Zhao Yi are their pawns.

They may not be smart enough, but their power is really too great. A grandmaster abandoned martial arts and started a cult, which lasted for more than 20 years. No one knows how far they have penetrated Qi State...

In this way, I'm afraid it was Zhao Yi who really made them anxious during these days, and this pushed Qi into chaos...

If a good balance is not maintained, why does Zhao Yi push others so hard? What a sin... Mobile phone users please visit m. to read for a better reading experience.
