C432 Li Xigong Passed away
Lyi Xigong had nothing to say. His plan was to make Lyi Xuanzhi disappear. This time, it seemed like he was going to disappear.
"If you let Zhen go, Zhen can tell you where the antidote is." Lyi Xigong looked at Lyi Xuanzhi, who was closing in on him, and spoke with a trembling voice.
"No need!"
"Zhen, Zhen... Zhen can let you go. Zhen can still..." Before he finished his sentence, he was held down by Lingsu. Unable to move, Lyi Xuanzhi placed the cup of poisonous wine in front of his feet. He picked it up and slowly walked in front of him.
"No! No! No! You can't kill me... You don't have a will, you're also killing your brother to usurp the throne..."
" Will? This king will let you see it clearly." Lyi Xuanzhi's hand paused for a moment, then he unfolded the decreed from his sleeve and let him finish reading it.
"Impossible! Impossible... This isn't true!" Lyi Xigong could not believe that this was true.
No one's name was written on the will, but it was written that the Crown Prince's eldest son had succeeded the throne.
This will could be said to be very tolerant. It could be said that it was Lyi Xuanzhi, or it could also be said that it was Lyi Xigong. It was written on the edict that he was thinking about. A surge of qi and blood gushed out from his mouth.
He never would have thought that their grandfather would play such a game of chess for them.
"Impossible! This is fake!"
"Fake? We'll know tomorrow, but you won't be able to see it. " Lyi Xuanzhi pointed at his acupuncture point and poured the medicine into his mouth.
Luckily, Jiazhi was forced to take the medicine and did not know what happened.
Premier Wang, on the other hand, knew everything, including what happened to Lyi Xigong. It also included what had happened. However, he had been suspecting whether there was a will or not, and now that he saw Lyi Xuanzhi taking it out... Only then did he confirm that this matter was true.
There was indeed a will, and the contents of this will made people not know whether to laugh or cry.
Lyi Xigong was immediately killed by the poison that he had prepared for Lyi Xuanzhi. Furthermore, it was completely impossible to tell that he had died from poison. He was so calm that it was as if he had suddenly died.
The people outside the door had also evacuated from the An He Imperial Palace. All of this was caused by his own selfish desires. Initially, he thought that they would have to fight to the death this time, but he didn't expect Lyi Xigong to withdraw himself. It was all for the sake of causing Lyi Xuanzhi's accidental death.
Since there was no witness, he could say whatever he wanted.
Only a few people in their banquet hall knew about this matter. Lyi Xuanzhi, Lingsu, Premier Wang, and Lyi Xigong who had just died.
"Let's make arrangements!" Lyi Xuanzhi said.
Before they came, they had already planned everything out, and it was all part of their plan.
"Prime Minister, look at this..."
Premier Wang was freed from his restraints and immediately knelt down and said, "I know. I will spread the news tomorrow."
"En, I have promised Wang Sining that I will let you live a glorious life. The Prime Minister position will still be yours." Lyi Xuanzhi's back was facing him as he spoke coldly.
Like Yue Niansheng, he was forced to accept this position. The will stated that the eldest son was needed. If Lyi Jiazhi took the position, there was no telling what would happen in the Imperial Court.
There were still four hours before dawn.
Lingsu followed Lyi Xuanzhi back to King Lyi's mansion. Now, everyone had returned.
Lyi Xuanzhi walked straight into the bedroom and stood there, waiting for the sun to rise. Everything had started to change. The only thing he wanted to do was to bring Yici back, but...
When they were still in the Moon Abyss, Lyi Xuanzhi went to find Yue Niansheng.
"After the Mid-Autumn Festival, I will return to Anhe, and my fate is unknown!" Lyi Xuanzhi wanted him to take care of Yici.
"Here!" Yue Niansheng threw an item to Lyi Xuanzhi.
"I have already found the final decree of your Anhe. It's just that you haven't returned yet, so you have always been in my hands." Yue Niansheng said it very casually. It was true. What did the matters of the Anhe have to do with him?
Lyi Xuanzhi immediately opened it and looked at it. He found that it was also funny because of this will. It didn't have any value, so he took it out to consolidate Lyi Xigong's position. However, he still kept it in his hand and prepared to leave.
"Yici Zhen will take good care of it. We will each take care of it. We don't owe each other anything."
Of course, he knew what Yue Niansheng meant. You helped me. This time, I found a will for you. It could be considered to be even.
After that, it doesn't matter who you are. In any case, it is for your own country.
...
Therefore, after Lyi Xuanzhi returned to the country, he obtained the true edict. But why would the edict be placed in their Yue Yuan? This caused Lyi Xuanzhi to be curious.
A person knocked on the door and entered.
"Lord, have a sip of the soup. You haven't rested for the past few days." Lianfeng asked worriedly.
"Put it down!" Without looking at him, ___ said coldly.
"You'll be attending the court in the morning." He continued, wanting to let him rest, but he still stood there without moving.
Lianfeng also felt helpless. He retreated.
Soon, it was the time of the morning.
Lyi Xuanzhi changed into his court uniform and went to the court. Lyi Jiazhi would not be able to wake up for a while. He also did not know how to wake him up. It was as if he had heard that he would wake up after a period of time. As if nothing had happened, everything was the same as before.
Before he entered the palace gates, he heard from afar: "The Emperor has passed away! The Emperor has passed away! The Emperor has passed away!"
All the officials hurried away. When they arrived outside Lyi Xigong's bedchamber, they were blocked by someone and were not allowed to enter.
However, they were still forced to enter and found that he was lying on the bed, dead! He died very naturally.
"Imperial Physician Xuan, Imperial Physician Xuan!"
"Call Imperial Physician!"
...
A row of Imperial Physicians stood beside the dragon bed. Every one of them had gone through it once to confirm that they were dead. Only then did he announce his death.
These few days, during the National War, there were always a few loyal officials who showed filial piety in front of his bed. After entering the mausoleum, all the officials were troubled by a problem.
"The previous emperor did not have any children, what should we do?"
"What should we do with the Anhe?"
Suddenly, someone spoke, "There was a will left behind by the Great Imperial Scripture. It was perfectly justifiable for him to succeed the throne!"
"Those are all imaginary things."
"This official has seen the will. It is in the Crown Prince's Residence from before."
"Don't speak nonsense. Aren't you afraid of losing your head in this kind of matter?"
Of course, many of the people inside were arranged. Otherwise, how long would it have taken for this matter to occur? It could still be brought up again. However, it was also something that could not be delayed even if no one succeeded the throne. More than half of them... All of them were skeptical and rushed to the Crown Prince's residence.
No one had lived there for many years, but people cleaned it every day. There were no signs of time.
Among the people they went, very quickly, someone found the will, took the will back to the Palace, and compared it to whether it was forged or not. After confirming that it was correct, he then began to look at the content for this old official to read.
In the end, they came to a conclusion, and it was Lyi Xuanzhi who succeeded the position.
Many people were biased towards him even without the will. After all, he was a member of the royal family, and Lyi Jiazhi was unconscious. Other than him, no one else could take over the Anhe.
What Lyi Xuanzhi wanted was a legitimate reason. He did not want the people behind him to kill because of the will.
