C431 This King Is Here to Replace You

Lyi Xuanzhi wanted to push his descendant's hand away, but unexpectedly, his body became light and he didn't have any strength left.

"What did you do?" Lyi Xuanzhi asked.

"It's just a drug," ___ said. Lyi Xigong stood in front of him and said arrogantly.

Lyi Jiazhi, who had been forced to drink the sedative, had indeed not died, and had nothing to do with it.

"That's just medicine. These medicines can make you forget everything that happened in this year. Therefore, everything that you know will remain in the past six years. Of course, this year's medicine hasn't been able to find a chance to give you any, and now you're back. Zhen will let you drink enough." More sinister thoughts appeared on his face.

" No wonder you, you... "Lyi Xuanzhi's body became weak. He was too careless, so careless that he drugged him.

"Why did you... attack me and Jiazhi?" Lyi Xuanzhi, who was lying on the ground, asked.

"Blame my father for not killing the two of you and passing the position to you." Lyi Xigong approached Lyi Xuanzhi with a ferocious expression.

"Lyi Yicheng? Impossible! He killed my family, and he passed the throne to us? What a joke!

"Maybe it's because of the guilt in his heart, but more importantly, he is afraid of Zhen!"

"Why?"

" Alright, Zhen is in a very good mood today, I will tell you everything. " Lyi Xigong did not care about this little bit of time. The pride of stepping on a loser made him want to tell Lyi Xuanzhi where all this came from.

It was not that Lyi Yicheng could not inherit the throne in the past, but he really wanted it. Therefore, he could only relax after eliminating all possibilities. First, he killed the rest of his family members, and finally, he killed Lyi Xuanzhi and his family.

The Old Great Emperor had long known that he had this intention, so he had written down the will long ago. He was afraid that one day, he would kill his father and usurp the throne. The outcome could be imagined. He'd indeed done so, so the Imperial Emperor had announced it to the world before this. Unless the Imperial Decree was passed down, the Emperor could not succeed the throne. And this Imperial Decree, he did not know where exactly it was.

However, Lyi Yicheng was a bloodthirsty person. Anyone who dared to stop him from becoming the emperor would be killed one by one. Yes, no one had any objections. If anyone dared to object, they would die!

As time passed, many people forgot about the will. However, Lyi Yicheng had an incurable disease. Perhaps it was due to his bloodthirsty nature, which resulted in retribution. A good time did not last long, and he died in an instant.

He also left behind a letter. It did not pass on the position to the heir, but continued the inheritance of the late emperor. This immediately made Lyi Xigong feel a sense of danger.

He originally thought that he was his father, so how could he pass the throne to an outsider. These two outsiders were the wandering Lyi Xuanzhi and Lyi Xuanzhi. Other than the two of them, there were no other descendants of the royal family.

That was why Lyi Xigong had killed Lyi Yicheng, and had told him not to mention this matter ever again. However, he had still let others know about it. The already unstable Imperial Court was on the verge of collapse. He had no choice but to forge a will and kill his father to ascend the throne.

Like father, like son. Lyi Yicheng had killed his father to usurp the throne. It was Lyi Xigong's turn to kill Lyi Yicheng who was lying on the bed as well.

But gradually, some people started to talk about the will, and some even speculated that the content of the will was passed on to Lyi Xuanzhi.

These years, whenever he heard these words, it would make Lyi Xigong very angry. So he wanted to kill them. However, he couldn't be too brazen. Lyi Xuanzhi's strength could be used by him. Also, Lyi Jiazhi's talent was even more amazing. Therefore, without anyone knowing about it, every year, the grand ceremony of Anhe would be held in their wine. No one realized that as long as they didn't die for no reason, it would be fine.

Lyi Xigong also wanted to rule the empire for five hundred years, but his strength and decision-making were indeed inferior to Lyi Xuanzhi and his brother, causing him to helplessly let the two of them stay until now.

Now, he couldn't care about much. Lyi Xuanzhi had threatened his position, so he would kill him! Only then could he stabilize his empire. It was also possible to stabilize his empire in the future.

He had always been narrow-minded. That was why he wanted Lyi Xuanzhi and his brother's lives so badly.

When he told Lyi Xuanzhi everything, Lyi Xuanzhi said in surprise, "This king and Jiazhi have never thought about competing for the throne with you. We will always remember your kindness in our hearts."

Lyi Xuanzhi had always been grateful to him for bringing him and Jiazhi back to Anhe Imperial City, bestowing them with the mansion and the position of official. He had always been willing to work for him, but he... had ulterior motives.

"The day you are in this world, Zhen's position will be on the verge of collapse! Of course, Zhen also knows that. The will is in the Yueyuan Country. If you obtain the will, what Zhen wants is that you will never be able to compete with Zhen." Lyi Xigong said proudly.

"Then why did you give me drugs instead of poison?"

"Of course I prepared poison for you. It's different for Jiazhi." He smiled.

"You don't have to drink it this year. What Zhen gave you is poison. Jiazhi has some talent. Zhen needs him to manage the government affairs for Zhen." He turned around proudly and raised his hand to signal them to feed him poison.

However, he was interrupted by a voice outside the door." Oh? Is that so? This year, This King would like to have a taste of this medicine."

When Lyi Xigong heard this, he turned around and saw a Lyi Xuanzhi on the ground. A Lyi Xuanzhi walked in from outside the door. He was a little surprised.

"You..." His hands started to tremble.

"Imperial Brother, how have you been since we last met?" Lyi Xuanzhi cupped his fists and said.

Lyi Xuanzhi, who was lying on the ground, took a pill and got up. He lifted his mask and revealed Lingsu's face.

"Yee Lingsu!" Lyi Xigong's voice trembled.

"The Emperor has a good memory, to be able to recognize me."

"Yi Shui Manor!" Lyi Xigong never would have thought that behind Lyi Xuanzhi would be the Yi Shui Manor. Of course he had gone to the Yi Shui Manor to buy secret men of sacrifice and medicine.

He quickly recovered and took a step back. "This is the Imperial Palace. Don't even think about getting out of here."

"I have no intention of leaving this place. I'm here to replace you!" Lyi Xuanzhi said slowly.

Even Premier Wang was stunned.

"Someone... someone!" Lyi Xigong shouted anxiously.

"The Emperor does not need to shout anymore, there is no one else. Seeing that the sun is about to rise, are you going to do it yourself, or should we do it for you?" Lyi Xuanzhi mocked.

"Zhen is you, Imperial Brother. How can you..."

"I am still your brother. Didn't you also do something to me? Do you think I don't know about imprisoning Jiazhi?" He said with a sneer.

"But... but I didn't do anything to him." He wanted some pity.

"Haven't you made us brothers suffer enough these years?"

Lyi Xuanzhi felt very guilty when he thought of the memories he had lost in the past five years. He felt the same guilt when he attacked Lu Che and the others. He wouldn't feel so guilty if they had lost an arm or leg. Instead, he felt less guilty in his heart. He felt guilty for the things that had happened but he didn't remember.
