Chapter 411
"His Majesty is dead!"

A hurried voice came from the hall, everyone was startled, Cai Jing and Lin Lingsu glared at each other viciously at the same time.

From Lin Lingsu's astonishment, Cai Jing suddenly understood that he was not the murderer.

The astonishment and shock at that moment cannot be faked, but Cai Jing also knows clearly that he himself is not the murderer.

Even if it is to kill the emperor, it is not now. Now that the situation is unclear, controlling the emperor is the best choice.

However, the royal family of Zhao and Song Dynasty had the Minister of Internal Affairs, the Division of Beidou, and the Japanese Zhi. There were a lot of talents in it, and there were countless people with high levels of cultivation, and they were only loyal to the emperor.

Killing the king is the most stinky move. It is equivalent to reaching a dead end and pushing yourself to the edge of a cliff.

Lin Lingsu was not as shrewd as Cai Jing, he shouted angrily: "You dare to kill the king!"

"The thief shouts to catch the thief!"

The people on both sides were at war, and the battle was imminent. A group of people who had withdrawn from the tower rushed into the palace.

On the carriage surrounded by them, there was Maode Diji, and the person who led the way was dressed in crimson civil servants, with the gauze wing cap folded in half, holding a sharp sword in his hand, and hurriedly walked over, it was Taichang Shaoqing Li Gang.

Seeing that Zhang Sanfeng took Li Yu and Emperor Maode away, he didn't care about cleaning up the mess, so he directly led people to the Zhengjing gate to snatch Emperor Maode back.

Zhang Sanfeng and Jin Lian were in a hurry to rescue Li Yu, but they had no time to take care of him, so Li Gang took Di Ji who also fainted down the mountain, and went straight to the palace.

Who knew that the palace was even more chaotic than the top of the city, there were all kinds of corpses lying on the ground, and even the corpses of the imperial guards.

Li Gang has an impatient temper, and he belongs to the category of a big troll who dares to scold even the emperor. Seeing this situation, he immediately became furious.

"You guys are gathering outside the palace gate. You really don't see your superiors. They want to plot against you, Grand Master, National Master." Li Gang saw Cai Jing and Lin Lingsu as soon as he finished reprimanding him.

He panicked at the bottom of his heart, Maode Diji frequently showed miracles at the tower, which made this courtier of the Great Song Dynasty proud, and under the excitement of his heart, he acted a little rough.

The two people in front of them are a prime minister and a national teacher. No matter what they bring people to the Daqing Palace, if they come here for a picnic, it is definitely not something that a small and too ordinary young minister like me can complain about. Pass the grand master, the national teacher."

Before Lin Lingsu could open his mouth, Cai Jing preempted the attack. Even though he knew that Lin Lingsu was not the murderer, he still shouted angrily: "Lin Lingsu is no longer the national teacher of the Great Song Dynasty for killing the king, everyone can be punished!"

Lin Lingsu counterattacked: "Cai Jing old thief, bloody mouth, you have so many ghosts and monsters under your command, harboring evil intentions, and murdering His Majesty, it is an unforgivable crime!"

Li Gang's mouth grew wide, and he was stunned. His Majesty is dead?
From the bottom of his heart, there was a trace of happiness. Is there such a good thing?
Then he wanted to give himself a big mouth.

Li Gang, oh Li Gang, you read the books of sages and sages, have you read the principles of monarchs, ministers and ministers into the stomach of a dog?

Although His Majesty is extravagant, greedy for pleasure, harming the people and the country, and angering people, he is the emperor of the Song Dynasty after all.

Holding back Li Gang who didn't laugh, he said loudly: "How can we argue here at this time, as ministers, we should go and find the real culprit for His Majesty!"

After he finished speaking, he looked back at the car curtain, but there was no movement.Li Gang didn't know that the Diji inside had already fallen asleep.

Li Gang's words awakened everyone, and a large group of people, regardless of etiquette, rushed to the harem.

Next to the imperial seat of the emperor's bedroom, two lamps with a height of one person shone in all directions, illuminating the originally dark hall brightly.

Zhao Ji's body was lying upright on the throne, completely dead and lifeless.

The cries of the eunuchs were high-pitched and thin, like a group of mosquitoes and flies gathering together for a meeting.

It can be seen that they are really sad. As the emperor's domestic servant, the Ministry of Internal Affairs still has some loyalty.

Although Zhao Ji did not slip away as the emperor, he was very tolerant and kind to the people around him, so he was supported by those who served him.

Cai Jing didn't dare to offend them. Although he felt noisy, he still approached politely and asked, "Who murdered His Majesty?"

Zhao Ji was lying on the throne, his eyes were wide open, and a trace of black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

His face was pale, he should have been frightened before he died, his hands and feet were paralyzed on the chair, without any struggle.

And seeing that his dragon robe is intact, except for the no blood at the corner of his mouth, he probably wasn't injured by a sharp weapon.

Li Cheng, the chief servant, wiped away his tears and cried, "Your Majesty is sitting on this chair, and he died suddenly."

Lin Lingsu stepped forward, took a closer look, and said with a sneer, "Could it be that someone poisoned it? It is said that some heretics love this kind of activity the most, such as Yulingtang."

Just as Cai Jing wanted to speak, Li Gang came out of the crowd. It stands to reason that his official position is not big, and he has no right to speak.

Moreover, the current situation is turbulent and weird. Normal people would like to become dumb, so they must not rashly participate in it.

If you don't have enough status, you may become a victim at that time. Keep a low profile and be wise to protect yourself.

However, Li Gang is a crazy person, and the bigger the scene, the more he wants to express his opinion. He took a closer look at Zhao Ji's body and said loudly: "This matter is too important to make rash judgments, so as not to mislead and track down the real culprit. People come, everyone will work together to arrest the real culprit. Of course, there is one more important thing, the country cannot live without a king!"

This sentence made the situation tense all of a sudden, the emperor is dead, what about the prince?

Whoever brings Prince Zhao Qin first and shouts Long Live will be Conglong No.1.

And taking ten thousand steps back, the privet people have not withdrawn from the Central Plains yet. Although they escaped from Bianliang, they are still on the territory of the Song Dynasty.

Countless towns have been destroyed, and the dead bodies of the people are probably still bleeding out. At this time, shouldn't we quickly support a new king, and then drive out the Tartars and restore the land?
Although Empress Maode showed her splendor at the top of the city, she defended Bianliang with her own strength and repelled countless privet tartars.

But no one thought about whether she should be enthroned, and everyone still naturally thought that the crown prince should be enthroned.

Lin Lingsu took a step forward, and was about to speak when Gao Qiu dragged her back.

He glanced at the dead emperor, his eyelids moved, and he realized in his heart that now is not the time.

Cai Jing watched an unpopular Taichang Shaoqing jumping up and down, almost as if he had mastered the situation, and gave orders there, with a faint anger in his heart, but he didn't show it.

He coughed lightly, with tears in his eyes, and said in a sad and angry tone: "Li Shaoqing is right. A country cannot live without a king for a day. The truth about His Majesty's death must be investigated. But at this moment, all lords will follow me to the East Palace to welcome the prince to succeed him." bit!"

With a single word from Cai Jing, he took all the credit for it. He has a high status, and the crown prince would appreciate it if he said a word.

Li Gang didn't care about these things either. His original intention was not to fight for power and profit. There were too many things in the imperial court, and he had to hurry up and stabilize.He took a step forward and glanced at the dead Zhao Ji. His Majesty died in peace, and his panicked eyes showed his helplessness at that time.

Now that the Great Song Dynasty is in turmoil, His Majesty's death may not be a bad thing for the Great Song Dynasty.

Cai Jing also glanced back, and the calculations in his heart deepened.

Who is it, who, against the disapproval of the world, committed the first act of killing the king in the Six Dynasties?
And he still has the ability to kill the emperor under the eyes of all the eunuchs.
