Chapter 1135: Attack [Two in One](2/2)
Most of the people here are human beings. How could they not see the intention of Emperor Wei's words?
Whether it was because he wanted to stabilize King Yi Zhao Yuanli, or for other reasons, Emperor Wei planned to expose the matter and not mention it.
After understanding this, of course no one would jump out to speak against Emperor Wei.
Although they knew in their hearts that the secrets of the past told by King Yi Zhao Yuanli were most likely the truth of the past.
And at the same time, this also means that Zhao Yuanxi does not want to admit this matter - since the king of Wei does not admit this matter, then this matter does not exist, even if it is the truth!
"Yuanli, don't mess around anymore." Emperor Wei's calm tone revealed a hint of warning.
He seemed to be warning Zhao Yuanli: Stop it now, I can still laugh it off as a bad joke, but don't push me into a hurry.
Seeing the warning behind Emperor Wei's understatement, King Yi Zhao Yuanli was silent for a while, then suddenly raised his head and said to Emperor Wei: "Brother Si Wang, there is someone who wants to see you."
After saying that, he clapped his hands three times, and soon he saw a fully armed Imperial Guard soldier walking outside the main hall of the Central Palace.
"Are the guards outside the palace... from Lao Liu?"
Emperor Wei glanced calmly at the entrance of the palace.
To be fair, although he must admit that the nightingales of the sixth Zhao Yuanli were beyond his expectation. He originally thought that the real trump card in this imperial hunt would be the imperial guards, but he did not expect that it would be those seemingly helpless ones.
A woman of strength.
But despite this, he didn't feel panic at all, because he knew the sixth brother Zhao Yuanli too well, and knew that this brother had no ambitions for power. If he were an ambitious person like Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, then he, Zhao Yuansi, would probably
It will no longer be as stable as Mount Tai now.
Therefore, in this case, if the guards outside the palace are really bribed by the sixth Zhao Yuanli, it would be a good thing. After all, this can ensure the safety of everyone in the palace. But if these guards are not the sixth Zhao Yuanli,
, but the remnants of the Xiao family, that is, Xiao Luan's group of people, would be in big trouble.
While Emperor Wei was looking at the door of the hall, the imperial guard soldier who had been summoned into the hall by King Yi Zhao Yuanli had taken off the helmet that covered his face, faced Emperor Wei and said slowly: "Long time no see.
Here we go, fourth child."
"..." Emperor Wei Zhao Yuanci was stunned at first, and then his eyes turned from blank to shocked when he looked at the man. Then, he inadvertently widened his eyes, as if he had seen something terrifying.
"You...impossible...didn't you already..." Wei Tianzi murmured with a shocked look on his face.
After hearing Emperor Wei's muttering, the man answered with a smile: "What? Have you been killed by Xiao Luan a long time ago? No!... At that time, I saw Xiao Luan looking at me with murderous intent on his face, so I
I knew he wanted to kill me. The person Xiao Luan killed was just one of my guards."
After saying that, he looked around at the many guests in the hall and said seriously: "I am Zhao Wei, the eldest son of the late King Kang!"
"Zhao Wei?"
"Zhao Yuanqi?"
"The previous generation's Prince of the East Palace, Zhao Yuanli?"
All the guests in the hall were in an uproar, their faces were horrified, and they couldn't help whispering. The Zongfu Zongzheng, Zhao Yuanyan, stared at the man who claimed to be Zhao Yuanyan with his mouth open, and did not recover for a long time.
"Prince..."
Zhao Yuanyan muttered a few words secretly. He felt that the man with slightly graying temples was indeed somewhat similar to the Prince of the East Palace, Zhao Yuanqi, in his memory.
Of course, there are also some guests who don't know who Zhao Yuanqi is, such as Wei Dian, the head of the Wei family in Tianshui, Longxi, and Zhao Sheng, the Lord of Yao. They are a little confused about this man who claims to be Zhao Yuanqi, and they don't know the name "Zhao Yuanqi"
Why did it cause shock to many guests present?
It was not until they realized that this Zhao Yuanli was the "Prince Zhao Yuanli of the East Palace" in the story just now that Zhao Yuanli, King of Yi, did they suddenly realize that he was the old enemy of King Zhao Yuancai of Wei.
"That's interesting..."
Wei Feng, the head of the Wei family in Tianshui, looked at Zhao Yuanqi, then at the Emperor Wei, and then turned his attention to his political ally - Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang.
After all, Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, or the former Zhao Yuanzuo of Jing, was also a very key figure in the story of Zhao Yuanli, the king of Yi.
At the moment, Wei Feng is very curious as to what role Zhao Yuanzuo, the King of Nanliang, played in this incident and what decision he will make.
"If the Zhao family loses power, can I, the Wei family, take her place?"
Wei Feng secretly thought about it in his heart.
After just a few breaths, Zhao Yuansi was lost for a moment, his face turned livid, as if there was an unintentional pressure that enveloped the hearts of everyone in the hall.
"Finally showing his fangs...Old Four."
In the main hall, Nanliang King Zhao Yuanzuo looked at this scene with an indifferent expression.
I remember that after returning to Daliang again after seventeen years and seeing Zhao Yuanxi again, Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, was very surprised because he felt that the king of Wei who appeared in front of him at that time was different from the fourth Zhao Yuanxi in his memory.
If two people.
I remember that Zhao Yuanxi more than 20 years ago was like a ferocious wolf, grinning at others all day long; while Zhao Yuanxi more than 20 years later was like an old tiger taking a nap, only when he was alarmed, he would
Only then will the claws and teeth be revealed.
The former was young and vigorous, while the latter was mature and prudent. If it weren't for the fact that he still vaguely retained some of his face from the past, Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, really doubted at that time whether the usually pleasant-looking king of Wei was really the Zhao Yuansi of that year.
But one thing he can be sure of: once someone touches Zhao Yuancai's bottom line, no matter how tired and slow this old tiger wolf is, he will reveal his true side, that is, the side of "King Zhao Yuancai".
Just like at this moment, the ferocious expression of Zhao Yuancai, the emperor of Wei, who seemed to want to choose someone to devour, was exactly like Zhao Yuancai, the king of Jing back then.
Especially his expression when he executed Queen Zhang and his group on the spot and beheaded them in front of their father Zhao Kang.
"Yuanli, you have crossed the line." Emperor Wei said to King Yi Zhao Yuanli expressionlessly.
"..." Zhao Yuanli looked at Emperor Wei and remained silent.
Staring at Zhao Yuanli intently, Emperor Wei looked faintly angry and said in a deep voice: "You are deliberately trying to create a fake, what do you want to do?"
"Fake?" Before Zhao Yuanli could speak, he heard Zhao Yuanli chuckle and say: "Fourth, what are you talking about? You say I am a fake?"
Zhao Yuanxi glanced at Zhao Yuanzhen with a sarcastic look, and said with a sneer: "It is undeniable that it is lifelike, except for one thing... I believe in my eyes, and I can be sure that the head that Xiao Luan sent to Daliang was none other than Zhao Yuanzhen's.
Level..." At this point, he turned to look at Zhao Yuanli and asked: "You want me to admit this, Yuanli?"
"..." Yiwang Zhao Yuanli was slightly stunned.
At this time, Wei Emperor Zhao Yuansi stood up slowly and walked down the steps regardless of the obstruction of the eunuch Tong Xian.
He stretched out his right hand and said softly: "Sword!"
Hearing this, Li Zheng, the president of the Third Guard Army, gritted his teeth, barely supported his body, pulled out the sword from his waist, and handed it to Emperor Wei.
"Do you know? I have always had a regret..." Taking the sharp sword from Li Zheng's hand, Emperor Wei walked towards Zhao Yuanzhen step by step and said in a deep voice: "It's a pity that you were killed by Xiao Luan instead of
I will kill you with my own hands. Since you say you are the real Zhao Yuanzhen, it will just make up for my shortcomings back then..."
"..." There was a flash of panic in Zhao Yuanqi's eyes. He was not afraid of the sword in Emperor Wei's hand, but he was afraid of Emperor Wei holding the sword.
The moment Emperor Wei waved his sword towards him, he involuntarily took two steps back and then collapsed to the ground.
Seeing this, Zhao Yuanli frowned slightly.
At this time, the sharp sword in Emperor Wei's hand was already pressed against Zhao Yuanqi's throat, and he continued what he had just finished.
"...However, you are not Zhao Yuanqi."
After that, he turned around with a flick of his sleeves and inserted the sharp sword in his hand into the scabbard in Li Zheng's hand. Then, he turned around, glanced at all the guests present, then looked at Zhao Yuanli and said: "What's next, Yuanli
?Forcing me to overturn the verdict for the Xiao family? Or forcing me to abdicate in favor of someone more worthy?"
As he spoke, he shook his head and said in a strong tone: "Xiao Shun is a rebellious minister and a traitor. There is no need to discuss this matter anymore! As for me abdicating the throne in favor of someone worthy..." After he looked around at everyone in the palace, he said in a deep voice: "I
Sooner or later, he will abdicate, but at the moment, it is not the time..."
Just as he was talking about this, Jin Ju, the commander of the Imperial Guard, burst in with a panic-stricken face and shouted: "Your Majesty, the Nanyan Army has rebelled and is joining forces with the Yangwu rebels to attack the Junshui Army!
"
"What?"
Emperor Wei's complexion changed drastically when he heard this. His complexion was far worse than that of the fake Zhao Yuanqi he had just met.
To be fair, Zhao Yuanxi did not believe that the Nanyan army would rebel at all, otherwise, he would not secretly mobilize Wei Mu's Nanyan army.
Now that the Nanyan army has rebelled, it means that Wei Mu has most likely encountered something unexpected.
"really……"
The premonition in his heart was confirmed. Emperor Wei glanced at Yi Wang Zhao Yuanli with a complicated expression, and said in a deep voice: "Old Liu, you have disappointed me..."
Yiwang Zhao Yuanli opened his mouth slightly, but didn't know what to say.
At the same time, on a slope outside the Zhongyang Palace, Xiao Luan, who had returned under a pseudonym, was looking at the fire and fighting over there indifferently, with a hint of loneliness in his eyes: "Sorry, Yuan Yu. , the Xiao Luan you knew is long gone..."
After a while, he took a deep breath, stretched out his arms, and showed a slightly crazy look on his face.
