Chapter 207 Rebellion (2)
Chapter 207 Rebellion (2)
Wei Lan looked at the emperor who was sitting on the throne, then at the third prince, feeling a little embarrassed.
For him, although he followed the third prince, the person he ordered to be captured was the current emperor after all.
At this time, a woman's voice came, "My son, save me, save my mother."
The third prince looked upwards.
A guard was escorting his mother, with a sword shining coldly against Qiu's neck.
Qiu was so frightened that she dared not move. When she saw her son right in front of her, tears of grievance flashed in her eyes.
The third prince knew that there would be such a scene long before he prepared to start the rebellion, and now he was very calm when facing it.
"Mother, don't be nervous. It's okay. Don't worry. Your son will definitely avenge you."
Qiu was happy at first when she heard his words, but for some reason, she always felt a little uneasy in her heart.
"My son, please find a way to save me quickly. Mother doesn't want to die."
Qiu didn't dare to move too much, fearing that the sword would hurt her. She could only try her best to keep her body still and cry to the Third Prince.
The Third Prince calmly looked at the Emperor who was still sitting there as steady as a rock, "Father, do you think I should be threatened by this?"
The emperor looked at him without saying anything, but his eyes and heart grew colder.
He didn't know why he had raised such a cold-blooded son? Why didn't he strangle him to death when he was just born?
"Mother, I am only one step away from that position. Will you help me?"
Tears welled up in the queen's eyes.
Is that what she thought it meant? Is that what she understood it to mean?
When she wanted to ask again, her eyes suddenly widened with disbelief.
He drew the bow and put the arrow on it in one go.
The emperor's eyes widened. He stood up and then sat down again dejectedly.
"Beast!!!" the emperor shouted.
The queen stared at the arrow stuck in her chest with wide eyes, raised her head with difficulty to look at the third prince, and asked with her last breath: "Why~~"
Unbelievable and hard to believe.
She raised her son and took good care of him.
For him, she schemed and used every possible means to clear all obstacles for him, even if it meant getting her hands stained with blood.
But he ended her life with his own hands.
Reluctance and regret.
But so what?
She finally fell down slowly and lost consciousness.
Just a pair of wide eyes declared her unwillingness and regret!
"Mother, don't blame your son. You also wanted your son to sit in that position, didn't you? Your son will soon fulfill your wish. You must be happy too, right?" There were tears in the eyes of the third prince, but he quickly suppressed them.
Tang Peipei did not expect that the third prince would be so decisive.
The people behind the Third Prince were also suddenly startled by his action.
Wei Lan was confused. Was he wrong?
When Mu Jintang arrived with the fifth prince and a group of soldiers, he happened to see this scene.
What he did had a great impact on the Fifth Prince.
He knew that the fight for the throne was cruel, but he never thought of taking the lives of his loved ones.
And the third prince actually killed his mother with his own hands? Is he crazy?
Mu Jintang didn't expect the third prince to be so heartless. It seemed that he could not be kept.
Mu Jintang secretly winked at the person in the dark.
Then he escorted the fifth prince to the emperor.
The third prince was shocked to see the fifth prince appear here intact.
He clearly sent people to get rid of Lao Wu.
Now that Lao Wu is here, it means his people have failed.
Then he looked at Mu Jintang with sharp eyes.
It was him. It must be him who ruined his good thing.
Why do they always go against him?
He clearly extended an olive branch to them, why didn't they accept it?
Why do you have to go against him?
Well, since you want to go against him, then you all must die!!!
The hostility in the third prince's eyes became more and more intense, and Mu Jintang couldn't help but become more alert.
He stood at the front, facing the Third Prince, and said in a loud voice: "You are all soldiers. You should fight bravely on the battlefield to expand the country and enhance our national prestige. Instead of following the Third Prince in rebellion and committing the crime of treason. The Third Prince even shot his own mother to death. Who can guarantee that he will not kill you who witnessed how he ascended the throne in the future?"
The Third Prince's people were already unable to get over the fact that he had murdered his mother, and after hearing what Mu Jintang said, they became even more agitated.
Mu Jintang added: "The territory is the emperor's territory, and you are the emperor's soldiers. As long as you can turn back from your mistakes, the emperor will not pursue it too much."
The Third Prince looked at the crowd which was becoming more and more agitated. It was obvious that these people had taken Mu Jintang's words to heart.
The Third Prince immediately retorted anxiously, "Don't listen to him. They just threatened me with my mother, hoping that I would surrender. My mother's sacrifice is inevitable. Since we want to clear the court, we naturally cannot be threatened."
The more I talk, the more confused it becomes, and the less I know how to explain it.
The crowd became more and more chaotic, and some people even began to back down and want to surrender.
The third prince was furious and stabbed the man's heart with a sword.
Since there is no explanation, don't explain it and just do it.
The crowd immediately fell silent and dared not move anymore.
"Since you are on my ship, hold on tight for me. Otherwise, this will be your fate."
Look, the sword is more reliable. These people learned their lesson immediately.
Then he smiled and looked at Mu Jintang above, as if to say, look, what's the point of you saying so much?
Mu Jintang turned around and looked at the emperor.
The emperor looked at his arrogant son and finally closed his eyes.
Mu Jintang waved his hand.
Archers ready.
The third prince looked at the archer who suddenly appeared.
There are crowds of them on the roofs and corridors.
He was shocked, and realized that it seemed that his father had been watching his every word and action for a long time, and was just waiting for him to fall into the trap.
The situation is hopeless, but we still have to fight hard.
If he can fight his way out, he will surely come back again, and then, we will make them pay with blood.
However, before the archers could shoot their rain of arrows, the Third Prince suddenly felt a pain in his back and turned back slowly in disbelief.
Wei Lan, with a ferocious look in her eyes, stood behind him, drew her sword, and thrust it in again, piercing his body.
Just like his mother, he wanted to ask why one last time.
However, as soon as he opened his mouth, large mouthfuls of blood spurted out of his mouth, burying his voice.
Wei Lan knew that she had no chance of survival, so she knelt down and begged, "Your Majesty, this matter was caused by me alone, and has nothing to do with my family. I beg Your Majesty to forgive them. I will take full responsibility for all the guilt." After saying this, she committed suicide on the spot without waiting for the emperor to speak.
The emperor's spirit was almost exhausted.
After this incident, he began to reflect on his past actions.
But he didn't have time to correct his past mistakes.
The emperor nodded, agreeing to Wei Lan's request.
Wei Lan seemed to have seen the emperor's answer. She smiled, closed her eyes, and died peacefully.
