Chapter 329 ambush

   Chapter 329 Ambush

  Liu Chuan stared at Commander Zhang’s face, always feeling like a dream.

   The commander of the Imperial Army, who was in charge of the security of the imperial city, would rebel.

   “What do you want our family to do?”

   A voice came from outside: “I intend to abdicate, and give the emperor’s throne to me.”

   Commander Zhang saw the person coming, and bowed his body and clasped his fists.

   Liu Chuan’s eyes narrowed: “Ping Wang?”

   He looked at King Ping, who was surrounded by people, and then looked at Commander Zhang, who had a respectful attitude, and found it absurd: “You guys are actually colluding to usurp the throne!”

   King Ping was furious: “Uspering the throne? This country is my country. Now that Qi Xiang is going to die, isn’t it right and proper to return the country to me?”

   Commander Zhang grabbed Liu Chuan’s shirt and said in a ruthless tone, “Eunuch Liu, don’t be ignorant!”

   “Water—” There was movement from the bed.

  Liu Chuan broke free from Commander Zhang’s hand and rushed over: “Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you are awake!”

   He hurriedly grabbed the kettle beside him and poured a glass of warm water, because some water spilled out because of the shaking of his hands, but he didn’t care about it, and carefully helped Emperor Tai’an to feed him water.

  Ping Wang looked at him coldly, and felt very happy: “I can’t think that the fourth brother is so decisive and capable of killing people, and there are times when he even struggles to drink water.”

   Emperor Tai’an on the bed looked over with difficulty.

  Xu Shi had been in a drowsiness for too long, his eyes were dull, his face looked more yellow under the light, and he looked terminally ill.

  Ping Wang felt relieved, but felt unreal.

   The man who occupied his seat like a wolf for more than ten years could even get sick and die.

   He couldn’t help but take a step forward, wanting to take a closer look.

   Commander Zhang was taken aback and hurriedly said, “Be careful, don’t get too close.”

   King Ping was a very unfortunate one, so he quickly took two steps back when he heard it, and saw Emperor Tai’an’s lips move.

“What did you say?”

  Liu Chuan said for Emperor Tai’an: “The emperor asked, when did you all collude!”

   “I can’t even speak.” Emperor Tai’an’s weakness made the nervousness of King Ping’s night entering the palace disappeared, replaced by the happiness that got his wish.

“Collaboration? This is what everyone expects! You stole the throne from me. Without a suitable heir, you would rather inherit from the clan than return the throne to me, or consider my sons. Qi Xiang, you Don’t you forget that I am the brother of one of your mother’s compatriots, how can you be so selfish!”

  Ping Wang has a weak appearance. At this time, his face is distorted, and there is a kind of heart-pounding madness.

  The corners of Tai’an’s mouth trembled on the sickbed, and he stared at Commander Zhang, squeezing a few words out of his throat.

   Liu Chuan said: “The emperor asked, as the commander of the Imperial Army, why did you betray the emperor?”

   Commander Zhang is not as upright as King Ping, his eyes flickered and looked away: “The emperor was going to choose a successor, but the minister just obeyed the destiny.”

   “The mandate of heaven? The emperor is heaven. Whose destiny are you obeying?” Liu Chuan got up in anger, pointed at Commander Zhang and asked.

   Commander Zhang lowered his eyes and said nothing.

   Emperor Tai’an’s majesty has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. If he hadn’t suddenly become seriously ill, and another person had spoken, he would never have dared to do so.

   “Don’t dare to say it?” Liu Chuan raised his voice, “The emperor is the lord of the Great Zhou! Commander Zhang, don’t be fooled by the traitor for a while, it’s still too late to plead guilty.”

  Liu Chuan’s words stabbed King Ping’s heart like a sharp knife: “A traitor? Fourth, I might as well tell you that my mother is the one who supports me! Your dog slave says that the mother is a traitor? Hahahaha…”

   King Ping’s crazy laughter echoed in the bedroom.

   Commander Zhang frowned secretly.

   At this time, it is most important to force the emperor to write the edict as soon as possible. How can we pull the queen mother out?

   Yes, it is the queen mother who can drive this imperial army commander to force the palace.

   The Qingyuan, where King Ping was imprisoned, was sent to monitor King Ping’s family. All of them were people of Emperor Tai’an, but in fact some of them were people of the Queen Mother.

   This is why Commander Zhang doesn’t understand King Ping’s mood.

   He was originally the monarch of a country, but he was expelled from the throne by his younger brother, like a bereaved dog who escaped from the capital and lived an incognito life.

   Now that victory is in sight, how can you resist showing off.

“Unexpectedly, the mother and queen support me! Fourth ah, fourth child, did you forget that I am the first son of the mother and queen!” King Ping opened his hands, his face flushed with excitement, “You stole my throne back then, just Do you think your mother will always support you?”

   “Cough cough cough——” The person on the bed coughed.

   Commander Zhang secretly said that the old emperor was too impatient, and reminded: “Let’s first ask Eunuch Liu to write the imperial edict to abdicate on behalf of the emperor…”

   King Ping smiled and nodded.

   Commander Zhang took a step forward, and his eagle-like eyes locked on Liu Chuan: “Eunuch Liu, don’t waste your time, please.”

   Liu Chuan’s face showed a resolute look: “Bah, you should be a traitor just like you are, and our family will never do anything to betray the emperor!”

  The sound of thorns and rubbing swept across, and a cold knife was placed in front of Commander Zhang.

   “Eunuch Liu, don’t be ignorant of praise!” Commander Zhang warned coldly.

   “Cough cough——” Tai’an Emperor coughed twice, pointed to the door, and spit out a word with difficulty, “Go…”

   “Your Majesty!” Liu Chuan’s complexion changed greatly.

   Emperor Tai’an seemed to have used up all his strength to say that word, and his breathing became much heavier.

   Liu Chuan burst into tears, kowtowed and walked out.

   Commander Zhang winked, and a guard followed.

   Seeing Liu Chuan walking out, the guard immediately asked vigilantly, “Where is Eunuch Liu going?”

   Liu Chuan sneered: “If you don’t take the seal, how will the edict take effect?”

  Liu Chuan is not the **** in charge of India, but Wang He, the **** in charge of India, suddenly contracted a serious illness a few days ago, so he was temporarily in charge of the seal.

   This is also the reason why Commander Zhang led his army into the Qianqing Palace and paid so much attention to Liu Chuan.

   Liu Chuan walked into the night with a sullen face, and suddenly quickened his pace.

   The guard who followed him sensed something was wrong, and just as he was about to make a sound to stop him, several sharp arrows came through the air, stabbing him into a hedgehog.

   Before the others could react, Liu Chuan ran away.

   More screams sounded behind him, one after another.

   Commander Zhang, who heard the screams, rushed out, and King Ping followed.

   The night was dark, and the imperial guards surrounding the Qianqing Palace fell one by one, and they had little resistance to the arrows flying out of nowhere.

   Commander Zhang’s face was revealed in the light, pale.

   Not far away, there were silhouettes, and the cold light flickered. Commander Zhang felt a chill from the bottom of his heart, and finally reacted: There is an ambush in the middle!

   A figure approached, and the footsteps were neither light nor heavy, but it was like thunder when it landed in Commander Zhang’s ears.

   “Yang Jing?” Seeing the man’s face clearly, Commander Zhang’s expression changed drastically.

  The Imperial City Imperial Guard has three commanders, one officer, two officers, and Yang Jing is one of them.

   Another person came over and stood with Commander Yang. It was another Deputy Commander, Li Chang.

   Commander Zhang’s hand that was holding the knife trembled, and suddenly rushed back, and in an instant there was another person in his hand.

   There are always things to go out these days, the update time is not fixed, but there will be. Summer vacation is so much busier than usual!
