Heaven Scheme Palace

Yao Dan Qing's sword tip stopped in front of Lv Ling Yu as she said coldly, "There is always someone to blame. I won't kill innocent people. If you insist on not giving up, I will kill together with you. "

"Pei Sheng?" Hearing him mention this name, Yao Dan Qing suddenly raised his head and laughed, "Pei Sheng? Back then, when the Yao Family was annihilated, Pei Sheng also participated in it, right? "

Xuan Yuan Hong Tao slowly shook his head, "No, he doesn't know about it."

Yao Dan Qing did not trust him at all, "Pei Sheng is the person you trust the most in Emperor, how could he not know? Even now, you still have to help him conceal it! "

"As the Son of Heaven, why should I cover for an official? Back then, the clan annihilation Yao Family was the highest secret of the imperial power, so not a single piece of information could be leaked out … I have sent some spies to complete this task. After the Yao Family was destroyed, they all bit their poison and committed suicide! " As Xuan Yuan Hong Tao said that, he suddenly coughed violently, causing a mouthful of blood to spray onto Lv Ling Yu's body. She was shocked: "Emperor! Emperor! "

Xuan Yuan Hong Tao slowly embraced Lv Ling Yu's shoulders and said in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, people will eventually die …" As he said that, he continued coughing violently, blood spurting out from his mouth, "In my life, my hands have been drenched in blood, but the only thing I feel guilty about is … Only Yao Cong Xing … "

When Yao Dan Qing heard the guilt behind Xuan Yuan Hong Tao's words, she could not help but cry, "Father, did you hear that? Emperor is feeling guilty towards you, but …. Can the Spirit of Heaven forgive him? "Tell your daughter, can you forgive him?"

"I, have never once asked for his forgiveness …" Xuan Yuan Hong Tao violently coughed as he laughed, "Although we are guilty, we will not regret anything. Everything we do is for the sake of the mountains and rivers of the Da Jin … If Yao Cong Xing is a loyal subject, he would understand our concern … And his daughter will understand me. The mountains and rivers of the Da Jin are Xuan Yuan's, so they definitely cannot fall into the hands of the Lu Family. Otherwise, how would I have the face to meet the late emperor and how would I be able to meet the ancestors of the Xuan Yuan family … "

Yao Dan Qing looked at him, who was covered in blood, and felt extreme hatred and unwillingness in her heart. But the current Xuan Yuan Hong Tao was already about to die, and no matter how she tried, he would kill a dying person, an assassin who was a criminal that reached the heavens. It was not enough for her to die alone, but he had to implicate Dan Feng, and more … Pei Sheng.

"Yao Dan Qing, if you want to hate, then hate us … Don't be angry with my children, they don't know …. "All of these are my plans …"

In the end, Yao Dan Qing kept the flexible sword in her hand, and slowly turned around, no longer looking at Xuan Yuan Hong Tao's dying face. Since she had obtained the answer she wanted, there was no need for her to stay here any longer.

In the past, she thought that the annihilation of Yao Family's clan was due to political conflict, so her hatred was not as strong as before. She only wanted to find the real culprit and punish him severely in front of everyone, even giving justice to Yao Family.

Now, she found out that the reason the Yao Family had annihilated her clan was because the Emperor wanted to protect the Jiang Shan of the Xuan Yuan family and hurt his father, who had always fought for the Xuan Yuan family, so she hated him to the extreme.

This kind of hatred was like someone giving their most loyal heart to their master, only to be betrayed by their master. In the end, it was just a carefully planned killing.

She could not let him go, even if Xuan Yuan Hong Tao died, she could not let him go!

Pei Sheng watched Yao Dan Qing walk out of the hall with tears all over her face, no one could be seen in the depths of her eyes, only hatred and shock. He took a step forward and blocked her path, calling out with concern, "Little Qing …"

Yao Dan Qing raised her head and stared into Pei Sheng's eyes when he heard his, her chest moving up and down.

"Let me ask you something, tell me the truth." Yao Dan Qing's originally clear blue eyes were now filled with traces of blood and tears, "The annihilation of the Yao Family s, has nothing to do with you."

This time, what she asked was not "don't know" but "is not related." This question seemed to have exhausted all the energy and emotion in her body, and it was the hottest and coldest question.

Pei Sheng's gaze was still as cold and unfathomable as ever. It only flickered with a hint of sharpness before returning to normal in the end. "No." His answer was firm and sincere.

"I believe you." Yao Dan Qing's heaving chest gradually calmed down, as she deeply concentrated Pei Sheng, giving the last sliver of trust in her heart to Pei Sheng. It was only because he was her husband, the only family she had besides Dan Feng.

And it was also at this moment, Lv Ling Yu, with a wooden face, was actually holding the embroidered box as he slowly walked out of the Hall of the Heavens.

"General Pei, let the ministers outside the palace in." Lv Ling Yu's voice was drifting, lifeless.

Pei Sheng seemed to have realized something, he waved his hand, signalling for the guards to allow them to pass. Immediately, one by one, officials rushed in from the palace gate.

Lv Ling Yu saw that the hundred officials were almost all gathered, and shouted loudly: "Emperor, has passed away."

When the ministers heard this, they all kneeled down and kowtowed as they cried out in anguish.

Lv Ling Yu had long since been too busy to see if what the officials were crying about was true or false, but he slowly took out the testamentary edict from the embroidered box and read out loud: "Obeying to the heavens, the imperial edict says: The late emperor suddenly passed away and returned to the five elements. I am deep in thought about the importance of entrustment and conscientious work. Only my seventh son, Xuan Yuan Jing, succeeded the throne and became the emperor. "Only Liangde, still loyal to the sages, and a common goal of new governance."

The moment the testamentary edict ended, the weeping of all the officials present suddenly stopped. Seeing that Xuan Yuan Jing had stepped forward to accept it, but no one responded, they all turned their heads to look at the sorrowful Prince Chu, as though they were waiting for something.

Lv Ling Yu understood too, and when they saw the expression on the face of the Prince Chu, they asked coldly, "Everyone, are you still not paying your respects to the new Emperor?"

At this time, Jiang Zongyuan stood up and questioned: "Since ancient times, there has been a direct line of descent. Without a direct successor, no matter what, it will never be Prince Zan's turn."

"Zhennan King sees clearly, this is the posthumous edict written by the Emperor. Are you questioning the Emperor?" Lv Ling Yu raised his eyebrows coldly.

No matter what, he should be the successor to the throne. Over the years, the Emperor has mentioned more than once that the Prince Chu is the most similar to him, and after the Crown Prince is imprisoned, he intentionally revealed his intention of using the Prince Chu as a successor. It's only been a short while, and Emperor has already changed to Prince Zan. Jiang Zongyuan boasted that since he was a soldier, he dared to speak brazenly.
