meet again

Chapter 571
Zhu Shi, the heir son of King Zhao, who looked like a maniac and laughed arrogantly a moment ago, trembled like chaff in an instant, and cried again begging for mercy.

Emperor Qing'an was furious, his eyes were cold, and he showed no mercy.

At this moment, a familiar shout sounded outside the door: "Brother Huang! Second brother! You all get out of the way and let me in!"

It was King Zhao who came.

After Zhao Wang was fainted by his son's anger, he was carried to the bed by his own soldiers.Before the imperial physician came, King Zhao had already woken up leisurely.When he heard that Zhu Shi was taken away by Wang Gonggong, Zhao Wang was cold all over, and he got up from rolling and scrambling, and ran all the way here without any regard for face.Finally arrived before Zhu Shi was executed.

Zhu Yun recovered from the shock, and hurriedly whispered: "Father, the third uncle is here, do you want to see him?"

"See! Why don't you see?" Emperor Qing'an sneered, "I want to see it today. The evidence is solid. How will your third uncle defend his good son!"

Zhu Yun responded in a low voice, and went to open the door in person.

As soon as the door opened, King Zhao staggered in and knelt on the ground with a plop.Without saying anything, he kowtowed three times.These three heads were firmly kowtowed.When King Zhao raised his head, his forehead was cut and blood was already oozing out. Matching King Zhao's miserable face, he looked very pervasive.

Zhao Wang's son escaped, covered in cold sweat, and wailed loudly: "Father, you are finally here. Please beg Uncle Huang for me, please forgive me! I was confused for a while, and almost made a big mistake. .I know I was wrong! Spare me!"

Commander Dong stood aside expressionlessly holding a dagger.The dagger had a cold blue light, one could tell it was poisonous at a glance.

Zhao Wang looked at the dagger and closed his eyes in pain.

Emperor Qing'an's sullen voice sounded next to his ear: "You came just in time. Your good son planned carefully and sent someone to kill my personal servant, and then pretended to be Shao Gonggong to assassinate me. This dagger is very poisonous. See blood seal throat."

"If I hadn't woken up in time today, I would have escaped the catastrophe. Now I can announce the obituary and the world will be mourned."

"You really raised a good son!"

According to the laws of Daqi, assassinating the emperor is a capital crime for exterminating the nine clans.

Back then, the kings of Qin and Han joined forces to cause rebellion, one was killed in the imperial mausoleum, and the other died of illness in captivity.He was lucky enough to escape the catastrophe, and has kept his head down and endured until now.But he never thought that today he would be implicated by his own son.

Zhao Wang's face was full of misery, all the words of pleading were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't utter them at all.

Prince Zhao's son was still crying, "Father must save me."Little did he know that his impulsive and reckless actions would implicate everyone in Prince Zhao's mansion.

Emperor Qing'an looked at King Zhao coldly: "According to the laws of Daqi, if the son of King Zhao assassinates the emperor, everyone in Prince Zhao's mansion will be implicated and should be executed. I will give you a chance to save Prince Zhao's mansion today."

"You do it yourself and end this bastard. I will pretend that the assassination never happened. You can also take the rest of your children and grandchildren to join the feudal clan."

King Zhao: "..."

Zhu Yun was startled, and quickly looked at King Zhao.

Emperor Qing'an's move can be called punishing.

Zhao Wang only hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and kowtowed to thank him: "Thank you, brother!" He got up with a speed that did not match his fat body, and took the dagger from Dong Tong.

The son of King Zhao didn't react for a while, and looked at his own father blankly.

King Zhao gritted his teeth, without saying a word, raised his dagger, and stabbed the son of King Zhao hard in the chest.

Sure enough, it was a poison that sealed the throat with blood.The blood flower gushing from the chest of King Zhao's son was actually black.The face of Prince Zhao's son also turned black in an instant.

Until the moment when he died, Prince Zhao still kept his eyes open.The two eyes protruded outward, as if they were about to stare out of their sockets.

Zhu Yun witnessed the scene of father and son killing each other with his own eyes, cold sweat broke out on his back, his throat seemed to be blocked by something, and he was speechless.

Emperor Qing'an remained expressionless.

One pays for what one does.Based on what the son of King Zhao has done, it is his own fault that he ended up like this.

King Zhao's face was pale, his whole body was trembling, and tears were streaming down his face. He knelt down again and kowtowed three times.But he couldn't say a word.

Emperor Qing'an slowly opened his mouth: "I keep my word. This matter is over. You can declare to the outside world that Zhu Shi died of illness, and choose an open space in the imperial mausoleum to bury him."

"After returning to the capital, immediately take all the people in Prince Zhao's Mansion to leave the capital. I only give you five days. If you haven't left after five days, I will take it as you don't want to leave."

Zhao Wang seemed to be dumb, still didn't say anything, and continued to kowtow.

Zhu Yun let out a heavy breath, and said in a low voice: "Father, all evils disappear after death, and I want to send my cousin a ride."

Emperor Qing'an nodded without a trace of superfluous expression on his face.

……

The sad news of the "sudden death" of Prince Zhao's son quickly spread to the ears of Pingjun Wang Kangjun Wang and others.

King Kang's whole body was shocked, and he blurted out: "Why did Prince Zhao die suddenly?"

Prince Ping recovered from the shock, and heaved a long sigh: "Before the imperial tomb was suddenly sealed, I inquired privately, and it is said that the emperor met an assassin."

It was obvious that the man behind the assassin was the daring Prince Zhao.

King Kang didn't know what to say, so he sighed after a while and said, "Isn't it good to live well? Why do you have to seek your own death?"

Emperor Qing'an ascended the throne for several years, controlled the court, sat firmly on the dragon chair, and was mighty.And it is a generation of wise emperors and sages, even better than the previous emperors.The prince of Zhao Wang actually sent assassins to assassinate the emperor. Isn't this the old birthday star who is impatient with arsenic?

To take a step back, it was a fluke, and the prince Zhu Yun succeeded to the throne.Under the prince, there is also the grandson Zhu Dong.How could it not be Zhao Wangyi's turn to sit on the dragon chair!

Prince Ping thought for a moment, then said in a low voice: "The son of King Zhao just died suddenly. It can be seen that the emperor is unwilling to publicize the assassin. After all, this is a family scandal and should not be publicized."

"The people in the imperial mausoleum today are all from the Zhu family, and there are no foreign officials. We should keep our mouths shut."

King Kang was the first to agree, and the rest of the kings also nodded in agreement: "That's right. It's better to keep quiet about such scandals."

King Pingjun said again: "Let's go and see off King Zhao's son as well."

There are empty spaces everywhere in the imperial mausoleum.Prince Zhao's son died disgracefully, and the funeral was extremely simple.The body was put into a coffin and buried hastily.Not even a tombstone was erected.

Zhao Wang was overwhelmed with grief, fainted, and was carried back.

It is Prince Zhu Yun who is in charge of the funeral affairs of Prince Zhao's son.

Pingjun Wang Kangjun Wang and others came and burned the paper in front of the grave.In terms of seniority, they are all the elders of King Zhao's son, so it is naturally inconvenient to kowtow.

Even Zhu Yun squatted down and burned the paper once, and then stood silently in front of the grave for a long time.
