Chapter 1532: Setting Fires Everywhere
Luo Duo turned around and looked at his second brother who rushed in. He was not surprised at all, then asked with a sarcastic smile:
"Second brother, what do you mean? Are you planning a rebellion?"
Luo Shu changed his previous follower look and said seriously:
"Brother, stop it! The fact that you poisoned my father has been exposed, and some of the people you arranged to kill the court officials have been caught, and the rest can't escape from Nahe City."
Luo Duo's eyes turned cold, and he laughed:
"Luo Shu, don't think I don't know that you have secretly sent people to kill Luo Lu, and you also plan to kill After killing Luo Lu, you took Princess Anping hostage to take over the three cities. You are ambitious. You want the throne and the cities.
You said that my poisoning failed, so why didn't you stop me before I poisoned you? Instead, you jumped out after the poison took effect. Now you appear under the banner of protecting your father. You and I know why. There is no need to say it so high-soundingly. "
"Humph! Brother, you have sent people to hunt down Luo Lu, why are you blaming me now?"
Luo Shu would not admit it, but just diverted the focus of the topic.
Just when the two confronted each other, a dart flew out from the dark and hit Luo Duo's chest. He subconsciously touched his bleeding chest, gritted his teeth and said:
"Do it!"
The people who were ambushing in the hall rushed to the people brought by Luo Shu, and the two sides quickly fought together, and the hall was in chaos.
Luo Duo and Luo Shu, as their respective leaders, were given special attention. No one noticed that King Luo Pan, who was lying on the bed, was spitting blood, and his eyes were getting more and more cloudy, and the spirit inside was slowly fading.
The sundial had been hidden for two days and two nights. Seeing the red fireworks rising in the night sky, he immediately gave the order:
"Do it!"
Then he floated into the overly quiet mansion like a ghost. This was the residence of the loyal followers of the third prince. He had already found out about the other party's living habits in the past two days. At this time, he went straight to the study, killed the other party with a knife, and deliberately made a noise to alarm the servants guarding outside, leaving evidence pointing to the eldest prince, and then flashed to the next target point.
Another group of people were disguised as the second prince's people. They also killed the followers of the third prince. After they succeeded, they also "tried every means" to leave evidence for the other party, and then slipped away.
For a time, the entire inner city of Nahe was in chaos, and the people in the outer city were hiding in the house and trembling, thinking that the sky was about to fall.
When Luo Duo and Luo Shu were fighting to the death, Luo Lu had already summoned the army in the suburbs with King Luo Pan's order and rushed into Nahe City at dawn on the third day.
At this time, the fight between Luo Duo and Luo Shu had ended. Luo Duo was seriously injured and died. Luo Shu was not much better. He broke an arm and fell into a coma due to excessive blood loss.
King Luo Pan had died unwillingly. In addition, many powerful families in Nahe City suffered. Even officials were killed and died on the night of the fight between the two princes. For a time, people were panicked and the ministers were leaderless. Everyone was panicked.
Some ambitious people had begun to move and wanted to replace him, but when Luo Lu took over the guard of the palace with a large number of soldiers and horses, these people immediately put away their little thoughts. Without military power in their hands, they could do nothing.
"Father, your son is late to save you!"
Luo Lu almost cried and rushed into the palace, and fell in front of King Luo Pan's bed.
The eunuchs on both sides knelt on the ground, all bowing their heads, fearing that they would be affected.
"Luo Fu, tell me what happened? Who did this? When I left, my father was in good health and could eat a large piece of mutton for a meal."
Luo Lu asked Luo Pan Wang's attendant with red eyes.
Luo Fu sighed and knelt on the ground and replied:
"It was my subordinates who failed to protect him, so the king was poisoned."
"Who?"
Luo Lu asked sternly.
"It was the eldest prince, he has been killed by the second prince."
Luo Fu knelt on the ground and replied.
"He is really my good brother. He took advantage of my absence to attack my father. He is not worthy of being a son."
Luo Lu scolded.
"My second brother? Didn't he stop my eldest brother from doing stupid things?"
"The second prince did bring people to rescue him, but he was also seriously injured at this time and has not yet woken up."
Luo Fu continued.
"Thank you for your hard work, second brother. I will go to visit you later."
Luo Lu put on an expression that he finally received good news, but Luo Fu's next sentence immediately made him frown.
"Report to the third prince, many powerful officials in Nahe City were killed. Most of them supported the third prince, and..."
"And what?"
"And the families of these people said that those who attacked were from the first prince's mansion and the second prince's mansion."
Luo Fu didn't need to explain the rest of the words too clearly, and Luo Lu punched the edge of the bed.
"Great! It's really great! My two brothers have such a deep plan. Not only do they want my life, but they also want Luo Panguo to be buried with me. They are very good."
"Third prince, the most urgent task is to stabilize the situation in Nahe City, otherwise it will be easy for others to take advantage of it."
Luo Fu said immediately.
Luo Lu then calmed down and said to Luo Fu:
"You should know that my father wanted me to inherit the throne, so my two brothers were so unwilling to take advantage of my departure from Nahe City to attack my father."
"I have heard the king mention this, but..."
"Don't worry, my father anticipated this day and left a secret order for me."
Luo Lu said with a serious face.
Originally, it was just a backup plan he left just in case, but he didn't expect it to really work. While secretly rejoicing, he coldly ordered:
"You notify the remaining ministers to go to court tomorrow. I will read out the last secret decree issued by my father before his death. I am the legitimate new king of Luo Pan Kingdom."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Luo Fu immediately changed his words.
The first thing Luo Lu did was to lead people to surround the second prince's mansion, arrest the unconscious Luo Shu, and order the mansions of the two princes to be searched and seized, and the families of the two were controlled.
After summoning all the court officials to court the next day, he read out the decree of the old King Luo Pan, and sat on the position legitimately and became the final winner.
The court officials read the secret decree and had to admit Luo Lu's status. Now only Luo Lu can stabilize the chaotic situation, because he has military power.
The first thing Luolu did after he succeeded to the throne was to arrange the funeral of the old King Luopan. At the same time, he thoroughly investigated the assassinations of the dignitaries and officials in Nahe City. He was so busy that he didn't think of Lianyi's existence.
Lianyi was still wandering on the road. After dealing with two groups of people, the journey became much smoother.
Duoduo had sent news that Luolu had taken the position of King Luopan, but because King Luopan had just passed away and Nahe City was still in chaos, the succession ceremony was not held for the time being.
Lianyi smiled and told Yuejue:
"Speed up and return to Nahe City. This palace is going to be the queen."
"Yes, Princess."
Yuejue responded with a look of surprise. She didn't expect things to go so smoothly.
My dears, I will still update four more chapters. See you tomorrow~
