The emperor died.
After enduring the loss of his three favorite sons, he was already on the verge of collapse, and in the end, the illusion of soul created by Ye Qiong and the Black Emperor directly became the straw that broke the camel's back.
The entire palace was covered in white, and everyone in the world was shocked, because the emperor had always been in good health, but now, the sudden bad news was even more unacceptable to everyone, just like the mountain of Haotian, Half of it collapsed in an instant.
Everyone knows that the history of Nalanjie's rise to power is a history of blood and tears. He stepped on his brothers to rise to power. It is also a very vast royal epic. Although the rise to power is not very glorious, it is undeniable. Naranjie was a good emperor.
His series of measures were for the country and the people, he did not increase taxes, and he also actively provided disaster relief. Therefore, since Nalanjie became emperor, it can be said that the overall national strength of Haotian Kingdom has risen to a higher level, and the people have more respect for this emperor. It's love.
Everyone has flaws, as long as they are human beings.
The emperor is a human being, so the emperor also has shortcomings.
The most pitiable thing is the greedy jailer. Because of his greed, he directly replaced Ye Qiong and accepted the punishment of being cut to pieces. Before he died, he made a wish that he would not be a human being in the next life. Being a human being was too painful, especially In fact, the jailer himself was not at fault for doing what he did. He had three wives and six children to support. With more money, he could give his wife and children a better life. The death of a jailer, the collapse of a family, and the collapse of his wife She had to remarry with her children.
Maybe his wife is lucky and will find a husband who loves her and treats her children as his own, but the chances of this are rare.
Most of them will not be treated well, because after the husband dies, as a widow, she has to bear the title of "Kefu", so his three wives did not remarry, but guarded the small family business. , do some small business, and work hard to raise the children.
The Third Prince shied away again and again, but the emperor almost begged before he died, because except for the Third Prince, no one was suitable to be the emperor anymore.
Li Yuguo witnessed everything, and he also knew why the emperor was so determined. Because after the emperor died, the neighboring countries would more or less take action. If the third prince of Wuzong level ascended the throne, the shock to the surrounding countries would be even greater.
But everyone knows that the third prince is already sixty years old. If he does not break through Wuzong and reach a higher level, I am afraid that the third prince will only be a hundred years old at most, and after a hundred years, what should come will always come.
Before the emperor died, he met with everyone, including Li Huguo. The emperor spoke to him alone for ten minutes, but most of his words to Li Huguo were praise and regret. The emperor regarded Li Huguo's father, Li Guangyi, as a brother. , I originally planned to train Li Huguo well, but I didn't expect that I would take the first step.
"I heard that you learned your father's Aohan Sword Technique and Fiery Sword Technique?" the emperor said weakly.
Li Yuguo knelt in front of the emperor, with the queen and the third prince beside him.
The queen was reduced to tears and fainted three times.
Li Huguo cupped his fists and said, "Okay!"
With that said, Li Yuguo took out the Sun and Moon Sword. When Li Yuguo took out the Lang Qing Sword, the emperor looked at the third prince, and the third prince also looked at the emperor. The two of them understood each other tacitly, but they both smiled.
Hoho…
The Sun-Moon Sword in the left hand and the Lang Qing Sword in the right hand were used so vigorously that the emperor shed tears as he watched them.
The third prince seemed to be hallucinating, as if time suddenly changed to the scene when he and Li Guangyi were sparring twenty years ago.
In the middle of the sword dance, suddenly the folding fan in the emperor's hand fell to the ground, and the queen cried bitterly: "Your Majesty!"
There was a smile on the corner of the emperor's mouth. Maybe he was regretful, but more importantly, he was satisfied.
Li Yuguo put away the knife, but also shed tears, because the Nalanjie in front of him was an out-and-out good emperor.
"General Li." A weak voice came from behind Li Hugo.
At this moment, the scene changed, and it was the emperor's funeral. Three thousand guards, all dressed in mourning clothes, were escorting the emperor's coffin. At the same time, Li Hugo was walking behind, and Princess Taiping appeared beside him.
"Are you here to bring me soup?" Li Huguo said.
"Soup?" Princess Taiping was puzzled, "This is the first time we have met."
Li Yuguo was shocked and checked again and again. Only then did he realize that when he first came to the palace, the woman who was talking to him did not seem to be Princess Taiping, but she was not Princess Taiping. Why did she look exactly like him
Li Yuguo was puzzled, but he was also relieved. Maybe it was a little joke played on him by the Lord of Hell in the underworld, who sent someone to observe and supervise him.
"Maybe I made a mistake. My condolences, Princess." Li Hugo said.
It was supposed to be an engagement between Li Huguo and Princess Taiping, but after the emperor passed away, the original promise fell through. Naturally, Li Huguo didn't want to be engaged to Princess Taiping. After all, the two were from two different worlds and had nothing in common.
The coffin was delivered to the imperial mausoleum outside the city, and the people along the way were waiting on both sides of the coffin to see it off.
When Li Yuguo saw such a scene, he sighed and said in his heart that this was a good emperor and the people had been sacrificed for this. It is conceivable that his death would be a great loss to Haotian Kingdom.
Watching the emperor being buried, the missing queen was accompanying him, and the other concubines were also accompanied by their children. However, these princes and princesses were of too high quality and were all crooked. Li Huguo also knew why the emperor wanted to let him His third brother inherited the throne, because letting these extravagant children inherit the throne would probably speed up the demise of the Haotian Kingdom.
Li Yuguo was walking, and suddenly Nalan Meng, who was beside her, quietly held her hand. She glanced at Li Yuguo tenderly, and Li Yuguo suddenly felt warm and happy, as if he had eaten honey.
The funeral was a state funeral, so it was huge and took half a month to complete. At this time, the emperor's body was still cold, so the enthronement ceremony of the third prince would not start immediately. However, the third prince himself had already put on his armor and came to the main hall to attend court. .
The third prince looked at Li Huguo and suddenly said: "In this court incident, Li Huguo killed the prince and caused the death of the late emperor. Someone will come and put Li Huguo on death row!"
As soon as these words came out, Li Yuguo only felt that there was something wrong with his ears, but at this time the guards came over one after another, and Li Yuguo exclaimed: "Why?! What is going on?!"
The surrounding ministers were also confused, and they all looked at the Third Prince in confusion, but the Third Prince's eyes were full of meaning, as if they were making some plan.
"Third Prince, what is going on? I... I am not guilty, I am not guilty!" No matter how Li Yuguo exclaimed, the guards sent Li Yuguo to prison at this time.
