In the palace, Marquis Pingyang was still waiting!
He wanted King Huyi to see the bodies of his two sons with his own eyes.
But now, King Huyi's body was gradually losing its strength.
He was only hanging on by a thread!
Marquis Pingyang had been waiting for a long time. Worried that there would be a betrayal, he immediately asked his subordinate, "Why is there no news after so long?"
"I don't know, but two groups of people have left the palace. One went to chase after the Second Duke, and the other went to the Third Duke's Mansion."
"Useless!"
"Please forgive me, Marquis." The guard lowered his head and didn't dare to say more.
Marquis Pingyang couldn't wait any longer.
He walked up to King Huyi and said with a sinister face, "Time waits for no man. There is still no news from the two Dukes. Your Majesty, please don't blame me for not giving you enough time."
King Huyi sat on the soft couch, his breath lingering in his chest.
It was so suffocating that he felt pain all over his body.
It took him a long time to recover before he felt a little better.
"Li Wenshi, even if you kill me, the throne will not be yours."
Hehe.
Marquis Pingyang said, "Your Majesty, do you still want to struggle at this time? My people are inside and outside the palace, and those ministers have also been arrested. If there is anyone who disagrees, I will kill them. The situation has been decided, and no one can change it. "
"Hehe, do you think the people of the world … will obey you?"
"Has Your Majesty forgotten the siege of the palace more than 20 years ago?"
"You … When Your Majesty first ascended the throne, didn't you also suffer the doubts of the people of the world? In the end, didn't you sit on the throne steadily for more than 20 years? Since you can calm the doubts of the people of the world, why can't I, Li Wenshi? It's just an imitation of the general and a new ruler.
Are you convinced? "
King Huyi's face was pale. His dry lips opened, but he couldn't say a word.
He was so angry that his heart bled.
The pain was beyond words!
Marquis Pingyang made up his mind.
He said, "After all, you are the King of Huyi. Even if you die, I will leave your body intact."
After that, he waved his hand gently.
A little eunuch walked out from the side with a tray and placed it on the table in front of the King of Huyi.
On the tray, there was a glass of poisoned wine.
"Now that things have come to this, Your Majesty, you have no other choice. Take this cup of wine as my last gift to you. Please drink it, Your Majesty." Marquis Pingyang's eyes were fierce.
King Huyi looked at the poisoned wine in front of him and laughed bitterly.
Back then, he led tens of thousands of troops into the palace and seized control of Huyi.
What kind of ambition was that?
Hundreds of officials submitted to him, and he stood above tens of thousands.
But today, he was forced to such an extent!
Ridiculous!
How ridiculous!
If he really drank this cup of poisoned wine, it would be an insult.
He looked at Marquis Pingyang and said with difficulty, "Since you want to imitate me, why don't you give me a quick death like how I killed the former king?"
Marquis Pingyang smiled and said, "I've said that I'll leave your corpse intact and give you a grand burial! After you die, you will still be worshipped by the officials. "
"You …"
"If Your Majesty doesn't drink, then don't blame me for taking action." He ordered, "Servants, serve Your Majesty the wine."
"Yes."
The guard received the order and picked up the wine.
One of them grabbed King Huyi and pinched his cheeks.
One of them served the wine.
But just as he was about to pour the wine —
The guard who was holding the wine suddenly poured the wine away, drew out his sword, and killed the guard who held King Huyi.
He fell to the ground and died on the spot!
Ugh!
At the same time, almost half of the guards in the hall suddenly stood on King Huyi's side.
Each of them took a side.
Seeing this, Marquis Pingyang was both shocked and angry. He asked angrily, "Are you rebelling?"
"It's more than rebelling!" One of the guards walked out.
The man walked to the front and even removed the fake beard on his chin.
He revealed his true face.
Seeing this, Marquis Pingyang's eyes widened in disbelief.
This man was …
"Chen Shu?"
This man was Lord Chen, who saved Lian Que from the broken temple.
Didn't he take his son to a safe place?
Why did he appear here?
Chen Shu looked at Marquis Pingyang, full of revenge. "Marquis, long time no see."
"You … why are you here?" "All 27 members of my Chen Clan were silenced. Why do you think I'm here?" Lord Chen's face was murderous. He turned to look at King Huyi and said, "The King is seriously ill. In order to consolidate the throne, he did not hesitate to secretly kill the officials of the previous dynasty to prevent future troubles.
I bet you didn't expect that I, Chen Shu, would still be alive and standing in front of you, right? "
King Huyi was dumbfounded.
He never thought that there would be such a move!
Now, there were people who wanted to kill him.
He couldn't keep his life.
One wrong move led to many wrong moves.
God had played a big joke on him.
But …
He couldn't understand.
"Since you are here for revenge, why … did you save me?"
Chen Shu said sternly, "I didn't save you, but your life shouldn't be taken by others."
"…"
Marquis Pingyang understood what he meant and said, "Chen Shu, you can kill him now. Take it as me doing you a favor. As long as you are willing to submit to me, I can spare your life."
Hehe.
"Spare my life?" Chen Shu suddenly laughed. "It seems that the Marquis hasn't seen the situation clearly!"
Marquis Pingyang said, "Even if you can sneak in with your people, now the people outside are all my people. As long as I give the order, you will be buried here. Why do you need to consider my opinion?"
"Then Marquis, please open your eyes wide and take a good look. Look at the thousands of soldiers outside and see if they really belong to Marquis."
Uh!
Marquis Pingyang seemed to realize something.
Just as he turned to look at the door, the closed door was pushed open from the outside.
A group of people walked in with great momentum.
The people in the lead were Gong Chi and the Marquis of the Southern Kingdom.
Bai Yin was behind them.
Silently.
At this time, the outside of the hall was full of armored soldiers.
They held torches in one hand and swords in the other.
They were just waiting for the order.
Marquis Pingyang was stunned.
He couldn't believe it!
He almost staggered a few steps back.
The King of Huyi was also surprised.
His eyes fell on the Marquis of the Southern Kingdom. The brother of the late King and Empress, who had been doing business for more than 20 years …
At this moment, he understood.
He finally understood.
It turned out that everyone was unwilling to give up!
They were all waiting for an opportunity for him to repay the debt!
Haha.
He laughed, and it was an extremely embarrassing laugh.
The Marquis of the Southern Kingdom walked into the hall and looked at him. "You must have never thought that you would have such a day today, right?"
King Huyi said, "I was foolish. I was too merciful. Back then … I should have killed you."
His voice was loud and clear.
The Marquis of the Southern Kingdom sneered.
Marquis Pingyang was dumbfounded. He looked at them. "Impossible, impossible …
The thousands of soldiers were all under my command. "
