When I am connected with the prince of the same life

Chapter 222 Calling into the Palace at Midnight

When the gong rang, the imperial city was solemn and solemn, and the strange north wind howled, blowing the flags on the high wall into chaos.

On the lengthy palace road, five steps is a guard.

The guard's expression was indifferent, and his body was straight, like a sculpture.

Big red lanterns were hung on the high wall, and there was also a pale and long white silk hanging on the wall.

It was obviously quiet until the curfew time, but the gates of the city were wide open.

From time to time, a carriage would come, and the people who got on and off the carriage would be led into the imperial city by the little eunuch at the gate.

The moon was covered by dark clouds, showing a faint light.

"Sir, here we are."

The gentle voice of the servant came from outside the door curtain.

Xu Jin lifted the door curtain and got off the horse with the help of a servant.

He raised his eyes to look at the imperial city, and his heart couldn't help beating twice.

The imperial city was flooded yesterday, and today they did not go to court, and they called their courtiers in the evening. What happened?

"My lord..." the servant beside him called out to him.

Xu Jin came back to his senses, "You go first."

"Then you, my lord?"

"Whether you can go back tonight or not is another matter." Xu Jin waved his hand, "You go to Prince Qi's mansion and just say... I was invited into the palace by His Majesty, and I don't know what happened."

"Yes." The boy answered quickly.

Xu Jin took a long breath and walked forward.

The little eunuch standing at the door greeted him with a smile, and led the way for him.

"Eunuch, I don't know why you called the officials here late at night?" Xu Jin bowed his body, showing humility.He even took out a few pieces of silver and stuffed them into the little eunuch's hands without any trace.

But the little eunuch just smiled and stuffed the broken silver back.

Xu Jin slowly withdrew his smile, not to mention that this trip was not easy.

The little eunuch took him directly to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

The Hall of Supreme Harmony is resplendent and magnificent, with a long dragon coiled on the pillar.Obviously it was the place where he had to come to court every day, but at this moment he felt very strange.

Sure enough, as soon as he stepped into the hall, he saw many colleagues standing on both sides of the hall, just like in the past.

However, compared with the past, the main hall is solemn and cold, which makes people feel cold physically and mentally.

He didn't dare to look too much, just glanced around, and saw a lot of guards with long guns standing beside the hall, surrounding them civil and military officials in a circle.

And above the main hall, on the golden dragon chair, the one sitting was not Emperor Jinming, but——

Like a king.

Did King Wang really rebel?Xu Jin pursed his lips, and slowly clenched his hands in his sleeves.

"Master Xu, please stand back where you should stand." In front of the hall, Lin Wei lifted his chin slightly and looked at him proudly.

Xu Jin calmed down, Shi Shiran saluted, and stood where he should normally be.

He raised his eyes slightly, and saw Feng Yao winking at him not far away.

Those eyes were full of resentment.

Xu Jin shook his head at him, signaling him not to act rashly.

One after another, more and more courtiers were taken into the hall, even the first prince Dai Wang, the second prince Yu Wang, and the sixth prince Liu Wang arrived.

It was not until the three princes entered the palace that Lin Wei straightened up. He clapped his hands, and the guards closed the palace door.

There was an uproar in the house.

"What are you doing?" King Yu couldn't help asking, "Sitting on Father's chair, are you trying to rebel?"

"How dare I?" Lin Wei smiled, stretched his hand behind his back, and took out a scroll of imperial edict.

Everyone's eyes were attracted, and they all looked at his hand.

"Father, pass on the throne to me."

He said word by word.

"How is it possible?" Dai Wang frowned, "Don't make trouble, fourth brother, come down quickly."

"I didn't make trouble." Lin Wei weighed the yellow scroll in his hand, "Brother, do you want to take a look?"

Dai Wang looked at him and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"We want to see my father, and I want to hear from my father's own ears that I will make you the heir." King Yu said.

"Oh, it's a pity...you can't hear me anymore." Lin Wei shook his head with a sad expression on his face. He held his forehead and let out a long breath, "Yesterday Qianlong Palace was flooded, and the father... died."

"What!" King Yu's eyes widened in surprise.

"Fourth, tell me clearly, why... father died?"

"That's the literal meaning." Lin Wei got up, "Father is dead, this is the imperial decree left by father. In the imperial decree, it is written, make me emperor."

"How is it possible?" King Yu questioned, "Even if the father doesn't appoint a seventh younger brother, he still wants to appoint an elder brother. How could it be your turn?"

"That's right, that wimpy seventh brother, it will definitely be your turn and elder brother~" Lin Wei walked down the steps step by step.

He looked at the two with a smile, raised his hand slightly, and the guard standing behind him immediately stepped forward with a knife.

The guard was obviously specially trained, his movements were as quick as a rabbit, and the long knife in his hand was aimed firmly at King Dai and King Yu.

They didn't expect Lin Wei to kill him, they were startled, and fled to both sides in a hurry.But the knife seemed to have eyes, and it followed the two of them closely.

"Lin Wei, you! You are killing your father and brother!" King Yu shouted while fleeing around the pillar.

The ministers in the hall were in a mess, there was an uproar, the sound of swords waving, and the sound of footsteps mixed together, making it extremely noisy.

Lin Wei picked his ears, turned around and walked back to the dragon chair.

He collapsed on it, looked at the mess underneath, and suddenly laughed.

"what--"

This farce finally ended in Dai Wang's miserable screams.

Dai Wang was stabbed several times and fell into a pool of blood. His bloodshot eyes stared straight at Lin Wei's direction, and he did not rest in peace until he died.

"Brother!" King Yu's mind went blank for a moment, he threw himself in front of King Dai, and shook him with his hand, "Brother——uh..."

The guard stood behind him and stabbed him through the heart.

The smell of blood spread, and some civil servants vomited uncontrollably.

Xu Jin was also frightened by the next scene, his face turned pale. He trembled all over, but he bite the bullet and didn't spit it out.

This time they were called here in the middle of the night, they hadn't made too much preparation, they looked like kings with elite soldiers, they were like fish on a chopping board, ready to be slaughtered.

"Hey~ Emperor, don't kill, don't kill." Liu Wang shook his head and stroked his snow-white fake beard, "If you kill, you won't live forever."

"Looking at the past and present, no one can live forever." Lin Wei sneered, "There is no god in this world, and there is no way to live forever."

"That's what you said wrong. As long as you practice well, you will naturally ascend to immortality." Liu Wang flicked the whisk in his hand, "Come on, come on, I'll let you get rid of bad luck."

After saying that, Liu Wang took the whisk and waved it around.Sometimes it was slapped on the faces of the courtiers, and sometimes it was slapped on the corpse of Dai Wang Yu Wang.

"Throw this lunatic out, onto the street, or wherever." Lin Wei waved his hand.

A guard ordered to take Liu Wang away immediately.

After taking Liu Wang away, Lin Wei sat up straight again. He didn't even look at the two corpses on the ground, and smiled at the servants below——

"This king is enthroned according to the decree, are all the lovers satisfied?"

There was a moment of silence in the hall, but then some surrenders fell to their knees and shouted——

"Long live my emperor!"
