Chapter 2288 Guilty Conscience

Entering the palace is the old prince who has retired to the mountains and forests, ranking ninth. No one in the entire Beiming Kingdom knows the heroic deeds of the ninth prince. Only thirty years ago, he had retired to the mountains and forests and rarely appeared in the capital city. I didn't expect it to appear suddenly today.

Beitang Xuanyang narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the old man who was striding forward. His hair was already gray, but his aura was as majestic as the mountains and rivers, making people dare not ignore him easily. At first glance, he was a man who had experienced life and death on the battlefield.

He didn't have much impression of this old man. It seemed that Beitang Xuanyang himself had rarely seen this man.

"Old Prince, you are finally here." Mr. Jiang excitedly bowed to the Ninth Prince.

"Master Jiang, don't be too polite." The Ninth Prince supported Master Jiang and looked at Beitang Xuanyang with a heavy gaze, "I came to the palace today under an imperial edict."

Beitang Xuanyang pointed at the soldiers behind him, "I don't remember the order to let you enter the palace, and those soldiers with swords. Ninth Prince, are you planning to rebel?"

The Ninth Prince ignored Beitang Xuanyang and walked up to Queen Wang, "Your Majesty, where is the imperial edict?"

"Uncle Ninth, this is the edict left by the late emperor. Please read it." Empress Wang handed the imperial edict in her hand to the Ninth Prince.

Concubine Qian shouted in shock, "Nine uncles, someone forged the edict, and the late emperor was killed by them."

"Whether it is a forgery or not is up to you to decide." The Ninth Prince said quietly.

Beitang Xuanyang's eyes were gloomy. He thought that there would be no problems after he ascended the throne. Unexpectedly, Beitang Yu actually left a posthumous edict.

However, what if there is a posthumous edict? He is already the emperor, so he must have the final say.

Lord Jiang and others went up to check the imperial edict. The moment they opened the imperial edict, they knew it was true.

"Ninth Prince, this is the handwriting of the late emperor. I recognize the handwriting of the late emperor." Mr. Jiang said excitedly, "This edict is true."

"It's indeed true."

"It's the late emperor's handwriting..."

Listening to the words of those ministers, Concubine Qian's face became increasingly ugly. She took Beitang Xuan Yang's hand and said, "Your Majesty, there is no need to tell them more. Wait until Prime Minister Qian and General Qian enter the palace."

Beitang Xuanyang looked at Mo Mingxi. He had never heard of the imperial edict before. Today, Queen Wang will bring the imperial edict into the palace, most likely it has something to do with Mo Mingxi.

"So what if it's the late emperor's handwriting?" Beitang Xuanyang asked coldly, "Can't it be that you forged it?"

Damn Qian Danqing! Why can't I see him yet? He just doesn't show up when I need him.

Lord Blood Demon is not here. If the edicts of these people are true, will the guards in the palace still listen to him? There are also ministers who have been kneeling here for a long time. They must be eager to remove him from the throne and replace him with an obedient emperor.

If he lets them succeed today, Lord Blood Demon will not let him go.

"I'm just asking you, did you kill the late emperor?" The Ninth Prince pointed at Beitang Xuanyang and asked sharply.

Mingxi glanced at him. Although he was quite young, his aura was so majestic that even the corpse-eating beasts were intimidated.

Queen Wang said she wanted to see someone, so she should go see him.

Only Queen Wang can hire such a person.

"Ninth Prince, how can you believe that the late emperor preached the killing after listening to that woman's one-sided words? Is there any evidence?" Concubine Qian stood up and asked. She had always been afraid of the Ninth Prince, and she never thought that Wang Junchai could actually invite him. When you come out, you must know that this Ninth Prince has not even seen Beitang Yu.

"The palace attendant who served the late emperor that day is the evidence. She witnessed Beitang Xuanyang stabbing the dagger into the late emperor's abdomen." Queen Wang's voice was neither high nor low, but it was sonorous and powerful.

Beitang Xuanyang laughed arrogantly, "Fart, the dagger didn't penetrate my father's abdomen at all, but his chest..."

"So, it is you who killed the late emperor." Queen Wang looked at Beitang Xuanyang coldly.

"You..." Beitang Xuanyang glared at Queen Wang and accidentally said the wrong thing.

Concubine Qian was going crazy with anxiety, but she remained calm on her face, "Ninth Prince, do you want to join forces to force the palace? The late emperor's coffin has not been buried yet, and you are so eager to seize the throne?"

"Who has wronged the late emperor? Concubine Qian, you know better than anyone else!" Queen Wang looked at her calmly, "The late emperor has been very kind to you for so many years. When you sleep at night, can you really feel at ease? "

"Stop talking nonsense!" Concubine Qian's face turned livid. Last night she dreamed that the late emperor came to her. When Wang Junchai mentioned it like this, she felt even more guilty, "I didn't do anything to disgrace the late emperor! "

Queen Wang looked at her sharply, "Then what are you guilty of?"

Concubine Qian's face turned cold, "Why am I guilty?"

"Come here, take down all these rebels!" Beitang Xuanyang was too lazy to talk any more. If he continued, he would only put himself at a disadvantage.

Lord Blood Demon and the Qian family haven't shown up yet. If they were here, he would still have to talk so much here!

The imperial guards looked at each other, not knowing whether to take action or not.

"What are you still doing?" Beitang Xuanyang was furious.

"The late emperor's edict!" Mr. Jiang held the edict in his hand high and shouted loudly.

"Long live my emperor! Long live my emperor!" The Ninth Prince lifted his robe and knelt down, shouting long live.

Everyone else knelt down and said, "Long live my emperor."

"The emperor decreed that when I was a prisoner, the eldest prince was the only one who cared about my safety. I have two major regrets in my life. One is that I failed the queen, and the other was that I mistreated my eldest son Xuan Wei. I knew that I would be safe when I came back. In anticipation of the danger, we issued a posthumous edict to pass the throne to our eldest son, Xuan Wei, and to abolish the Qian family's concubine as a commoner, and to abolish the prince's title..."

Concubine Qian listened to Lord Jiang reciting the edict word for word, and her heart sank a little bit.

Beitang Yu... actually still has such a skill!

She knew that he was not that easy to deal with, but his edict was too vicious!

"I don't believe it. This is not the late emperor's edict. It was fabricated by you." Concubine Qian shouted loudly.

"This is the late emperor's handwriting, as well as the late emperor's jade seal. It is indeed the late emperor's edict." Mr. Jiang shouted loudly, holding the imperial edict and kneeling in front of Xuan Wei in the Beitang, "Long live the emperor, long live the emperor." !”

Others followed suit and saluted Beitang Xuanwei.

Beitang Xuanyang was so angry that his whole face became twisted and ferocious, and his eyes were as fierce and vicious as a wild beast.

"Catch the traitors." The Ninth Prince ordered.

"How dare you!" Concubine Qian shouted, why haven't her father and brother shown up yet? They had so many eyes and ears in the palace, so they should have known everything that happened in the palace. Why didn't they come to help their mother and son?

Have they given up?

"Roar!" Beitang Xuanyang burst out with a wild beast-like roar. Although he didn't have a golden elixir, he had no problem dealing with a few mortal soldiers.

Mingxi stepped forward and kicked him down the steps, "A beast dares to ascend to the throne of God."
