The Record of Righteousness

Chapter 195: The Battle for the Throne

Everyone was rarely shocked, and they really didn't expect that the ordinary-looking Eunuch Wanqing Wan could have such unpredictable martial arts!

Even a master like Yang Huai would be surprised.

Luo Tong clenched his fists, and his heart was filled with turmoil.

It turned out that this eunuch whose martial arts skills were almost the same as his own, but after just a few years of not seeing his martial arts skills, he suddenly became the best in the world. I am afraid that I am no match for him!

The other generals couldn't help but think highly of this eunuch.

But in one encounter, eight killers in black with high martial arts skills were instantly killed! It turned into balls of blood, with broken limbs and arms, and was squandered.

At this time, there was only one living person left. His body was covered with rubble and debris, with bloody holes everywhere, and he was struggling and crawling on the ground in pain.

He grabbed a knife and wiped it towards his neck. Before the edge of the knife fell, Wan Qing flicked a cold light.

With a miserable howl, the man's arm shattered and burst into blood, and the blade fell to the ground with a clang. At this time, it was even harder for him to kill himself.

The fourth prince was stunned and still in shock. Looking at the messy scene, full of blood and corpses everywhere, he calmed down after Zhuge Yuanxu comforted him.

Wan Qing got the former's signal, grabbed the man's hair, and asked in a ferocious voice:

"Tell me! Who sent you here? Our family will give you a good time."

The man was shaking all over in pain and wished he could die quickly. He spat out a large mouthful of blood and said with difficulty:

"Yes, Admiral Dongchang"

With a crash, the man's head exploded, and red and white things flew everywhere. Wan Qing stood up slowly and calmly took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands.

"Cao Taiqing"

And Zhu Zongxun naturally understood what was going on at this time. Who else could give instructions besides the emperor's brother Zhu Zongdan?

He was filled with resentment and gnashed his teeth and murmured:

"Zhu Zongdan! You are so cruel. Is there anyone else you dare not kill?!"

Yang Huai on the side picked up the weapon on the ground, looked at it again and again, and said:

"Such flying hook-like weapons are rare in the Central Plains."

After Zhuge Yuanxu listened, he took it from Yang Huai's hand and pondered it over and over. Then he squatted down and gently opened the man's clothes. He saw a tattoo on the man's neck, which was a flying eagle the size of a thumb.

Seeing this, Yang Huai couldn't help but said:

"Flying hook weapon, fluttering eagle tattoo. Could these people be the assassins of Golden Roc Castle?"

Zhuge Yuanxu threw away the flying hook in his hand and said slowly:

"Jinpeng Fort is located in the Western Region. It is a no-nonsense zone. The assassins from Jinpeng Fort only recognize money and not people. As long as they are given enough money, I, the King of Heaven, and the others will dare to assassinate."

"It seems that Cao Taiqing spent a lot of money."

Brother Emperor, Brother Emperor, you don’t care about brotherhood, have you already become so cruel and ruthless? !

If you dare to send someone to assassinate you, don't blame Gu Qingqing!

Zhu Zongxun had obviously come out of the thrilling experience just now. He exhaled turbid air and actually chuckled, saying quietly:

"It seems that the ancients did not deceive me. The poor beauties always have a bad life. The most ruthless ones are the emperors! Hahahahaha. If that's the case, then I have nothing to be afraid of."

Zhuge Yuanxu looked solemn and looked at everyone seriously.

"Everyone! Without further ado, please go back. When the troops are raised, I will send a letter to everyone by flying pigeons!"

"Wait!"

Zhu Zongxun called everyone down, glanced at everyone, and said harshly:

"When Gu ascends to the throne of the Supreme Emperor, each of you will be among the most respected ministers! The glory and wealth of this thousand years, and the cuteness of your descendants for eternity, will only depend on your performance in these few days."

Everyone was so excited that they all knelt down and shouted:

"Thank you for your great kindness, Your Highness!"

"I will do my best to hurt you, and I will not hesitate to do so!"

Light rain fell and a breeze blew in the heavily guarded palace.

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

The emperor was critically ill, so he summoned his relatives at the moment of desperation. It seemed that he was going to make a will to entrust the throne to the emperor.

Now there were people from Jinyiwei and Dongchang everywhere, as well as large numbers of soldiers in armor, giving them a more chilling atmosphere.

A group of concubines, princes, princesses, etc. in gorgeous clothes stood outside the palace, their heads lowered, all with sad expressions, sobbing secretly, and full of sorrow, but the only one missing was the fourth prince.

They knew very well that the weather was about to change. At this time, it was unclear whether they were crying for the critically ill emperor or for their own slim future.

There were also some important cabinet ministers in crimson robes and pro-army generals in armor waiting anxiously outside.

As the eldest son, Zhu Zongdan was naturally at the front. At this time, he was crying the most painfully. His eyes were red and swollen, and he was whimpering softly. He gently wiped the tears with his sleeves.

Cao Taiqing, the admiral of Dongchang, also stood beside him with a sad expression, as well as the three generals of the Jinwu Guard, Yulin Guard, and Hu Ben Guard.

At this time, Lu Xinghuai came over in the wind and rain, and was beaten to the skin. He walked to the eldest prince calmly and whispered in his ear:

"His Highness's assassination failed, and the fourth prince escaped!"

"Um?"

The eldest prince's red and swollen eyes suddenly showed an unmatched harsh look. He raised his head and glared at Cao Taiqing, knowing that the matter was a failure. Due to the crowd of people at this time, he did not say anything more.

"Keep talking."

Lu Xinghuai looked around, then whispered quietly:

"Your Highness, when the fourth prince learned that it was you who sent him, he was furious. He asked Wan Qing to mobilize the troops of the Shandong Admiral! The other four princes' confidants were all found out. They were Lu, the commander of the Tiger God Battalion. Crossing the sea, He Shengguo, deputy commander of the Shenji Battalion"
