Chapter 345: They’re All Actors
Translator: 549690339
The city gate commandant did not receive Sikong Xiao’s order to arrest the kings who had left the city, but he had also heard that Prince Jiang Xia and Prince Huai Yang had been summoned into the palace.
Now that Prince Huaiyang was not dead, what did it mean?
That meant he had defected to Empress Wang?
If he didn’t catch her, when would he?
This was a good opportunity that had come knocking on his door. It was a big pie with thick skin and thick filling that fell from the sky. If he didn’t pick it up, would his brain be filled with sh * t?
He was also quick-witted. With a glance, the people below knew what was going on and surrounded him.
Prince Huaiyang was followed by more than ten Imperial Forest Guards, but they could not withstand the knife that was directly placed on his neck. Even if they wanted to resist, they had to dare to do so. In the past, they were their top leaders.
Moreover, this city gate captain was smart. Not only did he capture the people, but he also said that the Queen had killed the king and usurped the throne. The Royal Guards were dumbfounded. Not only did they use their broadswords and spears, but they also incited public opinion, using force before courtesy.
The reason why Empress Wang had waited until now to make her move was because the available manpower was limited.
Everyone was living a comfortable life, enjoying high positions and high salaries. It would be strange if anyone dared to rebel against you.
The main force of the rebellion, Zheng Zhi, was only able to win him over because of his bad luck and poor family reputation. In addition, his widowed mother had fallen ill a while ago, and Empress Wang had given him medicine and silver. He was also the son-in-law of the Wang family. Recently, the emperor did not like the Wang family and had successively stripped more than ten officials of the Wang family. Zheng Zhi’s future was bleak, so she used both kindness and power to pull him onto the pirate ship and rebel together.
It was only when Zheng Zhi was changing shifts to guard Taiji Palace that he managed to kill Emperor Yu Heng. All his previous efforts were almost wasted.
For such a confidential matter, the fewer people who knew about it, the better. Furthermore, Zheng Zhi was only a commander of the central army. His official position was not low, but he was only in the middle ranks of the imperial guards. The number of people he could control was limited.
Although Empress Wang had the guts to kill the emperor, it was against the laws of nature. The fewer people knew about it, the fewer people knew about it. Other than a few grasshoppers who stood on the same rope, these royal guards, including the other commanders, at most spread the news of the emperor’s death.
The emperor passed the throne to the prince.
The swords in the East Hall were controlled by Zheng Zhi’s group. The others did what the higher-ups said. Now that he heard that Empress Wang had killed Yu Heng, he was dumbfounded. They were clearly the royal guards guarding the emperor, but they had become traitors in a matter of minutes.
They weren’t stupid, and these words didn’t seem to be fake. After all, Emperor Yu Heng’s dislike of the Crown Prince was already a matter of public opinion, and he was also like fire and water with Empress Wang. The Emperor was critically ill, so how could Empress Wang order him around in Taiji Palace?
This matter was something that he would not have known if he did not say it. Once he said it, it was really amazing. Everything was connected.
The Royal Forest Guards didn’t resist, raising their hands in surrender. This matter really had nothing to do with them. They couldn’t let the benefits go to them. It wasn’t fair to take the blame together.
Empress Wang would never have dreamed that she would be able to subdue the Prince of Huaiyang with great difficulty and then personally send him back to Sikong Xiao.
As if he was afraid of losing Sikong Xiao, he even gave a dozen royal guards.
The city gate captain happily tied up the people and went to Xie Xian’s residence. Sikong Xiao was dispatching soldiers and generals. It was not easy to find him, but Xin An King was in the Xie residence. Where Xin An King was, it was naturally the command center.
Although he missed Sikong Xiao, if he directly kidnapped him to the Xin ‘an Prince, he might be able to get credit for following the dragon.
The Prince of Huaiyang was also a foodie. He didn’t even say a word of nonsense when he was tied up and obediently left with the others.
He didn’t take the Emperor’s token, and the imperial edict was still in his pocket. The other party wanted to rebel and fight with the Crown Prince to the death. Taking it out was useless.
He could tell that this was someone who was eager to gain merit. He was now a tiger that had fallen from the mountains and was being bullied by dogs. Putting on some useless airs and nagging was asking for humiliation. It was better to calmly deal with them and give them a show. What was calm and collected? What was unchanging in front of Mount Tai?
The Prince of Huaiyang was not stupid. No matter how much the Prince of Xin ‘an wanted to die, they could not kill Empress Wang with just a pinch of their hands. He, the dignified Prince of Huaiyang, was a relative of the royal family. He was originally in charge of the imperial guards. How much sh * t must have gone into his brain to not rope him in and kill him?
He had thought it through and done it beautifully.
Just as the King of Huaiyang had expected, the King of Xin ‘an and his uncle and nephew cried the moment they met.
“Ninth Uncle, you escaped from Empress Wang’s clutches?”
This was a way out.
The King of Huaiyang saw the opportunity and went down. He cried bitterly and beat his chest and stamped his feet.”That vicious woman killed Imperial Brother, killed the emperor and killed her husband. She was too vicious. She tricked us into the palace and even wanted to kill us. Fortunately, I was usually cautious and did not offend her. Hence, she pretended to be perfunctory. She did not have enough manpower, so she sent me out to take over the protection army outside the city…”
“General Xue Mu Xue was upright and upright. He immediately fought the rebel commander Zheng Zhi in the East Hall and killed more than ten rebels.
Unfortunately, he was outnumbered and died under the arrows.”
Her voice was mournful, and every word was dripping with blood. She was crying so hard that she was about to pull out.
It was better to listen than to talk. Prince Huaiyang himself had said that he was ‘pretending to be perfunctory’, but whether this was true or not, heaven and earth knew. Everyone probably knew. However, this was not the time to pursue him. Now was the time to use people. Prince Huaiyang held a high position and was deeply doted on by Emperor Yuheng. With him standing on his side, it was beneficial and harmless.
Xin ‘an King’s eyes were red with pain.” General Xue is brave.” The pillar of the country, that vicious woman killed the king to establish the throne, killed loyal officials and good generals, ten thousand deaths are not worth regretting!”
“I will definitely kill that traitor!”
“That’s right, you are Imperial Brother’s most beloved son. If it wasn’t for the Empress Dowager’s birthday, Imperial Brother wouldn’t want to disturb the Empress Dowager’s mood and would have long deposed the Crown Prince and made you the Crown Prince. Otherwise, why would Empress Wang choose this time to poison Imperial Brother? Her intention to bring chaos to the government cannot be hidden from all living beings.”
“Liu ‘er, you have to seek justice for Imperial Brother, take revenge for General Xue, and kill all the traitors who plotted to usurp the throne for the people of Daliang.”
“Correct the universe!”
Prince Huaiyang grabbed Prince Xin ‘an’s hand tightly, his eyes red with excitement. If he wasn’t too fat, his veins would probably be squeezed out.
Xie Xian had been following behind Prince Xin ‘an the entire time, quietly looking at the two of them.

Including Emperor Yu Heng who was poisoned to death, the entire family was full of drama queens.
However, it was a good thing that the Prince of Huaiyang had switched sides. It was beneficial and harmless to them, so everyone was happy to play dumb. After all, with the prerequisite of defeating the king and empress, everyone could stand on the side of justice, the alliance of justice.
“A guard risked his life to spread the news that Empress Wang poisoned the Emperor. Now, the entire Jiankang City knows about it. But after all, the Ninth King has a noble status and made his way out of the palace’s life and death arena. With His Highness appearing to correct the public and crusade against Empress Wang, we have another force!”
Xie Liang cupped his hands and bowed.
It could be said that it was for the superb acting skills of the two kings and to put an end to this scene..
