As soon as Old Chen left, the Emperor let out a long sigh. He looked at the people kneeling before him and suddenly chuckled, "Hehe … I'm looking for the reason … I just want to die knowing. I don't want to be a muddled ghost! "
"Your Majesty …"
"Don't say that, Your Majesty!"
"We still have the power to fight!"
"Our power is still very strong!"
"Your Majesty, you can't be too pessimistic …"
Jiang Hengyu waved his hand, "Alright … get up. No matter what, we will definitely lose this battle! As for Da Xia … they will definitely not let go of such a good opportunity. Heh, if they don't fight … they will kill a million soldiers of Da Qi! In this world … is there anything better than this? Do you think that Da Xia's army … is just for show? "
"Your Majesty, we still have the power of our sects!" Someone cried out sorrowfully.
"So do they!" Jiang Hengyu said calmly.
At this moment, the Emperor's gaze landed on the Second Prince, who had just stood up and was standing there silently. Then, his gaze swept past the First Prince, the Fourth Prince, and the Fifth Prince.
"An army of a million soldiers passing through the Broken Heaven Mountain Range. There were less than ten people who knew about this." Jiang Hengyu said calmly, "I know, Kong Zhongda and Fang Dongming know, and the rest of you princes know. Apart from that, this matter is top secret! Who … among you? Have you talked about this? "
The Second Prince and the Fifth Prince's expression changed slightly when the Emperor said this!
The Emperor had given a strict order that before the army passed through the Broken Sky Mountain Range, this matter was not to be revealed!
However, the Second Prince and the Fifth Prince had unintentionally revealed this matter that night. Moreover, although Jiang Hengxu and Kenn did not mention the exact day of the theft, that day seemed to be very close to the day they revealed this matter!
Therefore, the Second Prince and the Fifth Prince's hearts started to beat like drums. At the same time, they were hoping that they could get lucky. It couldn't be so coincidental, right? How could it be so coincidental?
Jiang Hengyu had ascended to the throne for many years and had occupied the throne for a long time. Nothing could escape his eyes.
How could the changes on the faces of the Second Prince and the Fifth Prince escape his eyes? Although the two princes were trying their best to hide it, Jiang Hengyu could still tell with one glance that the two of them … were hiding something in their hearts!
Just as Jiang Hengyu was about to say something, Old Chen, who had just left, suddenly appeared in the golden hall with a fatty in his hand.
He threw the fat man to the ground. Coldly, he said, "Zhao Er, His Majesty is here. Kneel and kowtow!"
Zhao Er, who was almost as fat as a ball, knelt down on the spot, trembling as he said, "This commoner Zhao Er … greets Your Majesty! Long live the Emperor! "
All the officials in the imperial court were surprised. They didn't know why Elder Chen had caught such a fat man who looked like a ball.
The Emperor was also a little confused, but he snorted lightly.
"Zhao Er, tell everything you know to His Majesty," said Elder Chen. If you hide anything, no one will be able to save you! "
"This commoner dares not … This commoner dares not!" Zhao Er trembled as he helped Chu Mo sneak into the Great Qi's capital. Based on his experience, he deduced that the disguised young man was Chu Mo. Then, he secretly contacted Old Chen to plot against Chu Mo. However, Chu Mo had quietly escaped. He narrated everything to Jiang Hengyu, the Emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom.
Following Zhao Er's words, the officials in the golden hall exclaimed one after another. They didn't expect that Da Xia, that young man who could stir up a storm, would come to the Great Qi Kingdom alone to spy on the military. Moreover, he was so vigilant that he had evaded the plot and disappeared without a trace.
The Second Prince and the Fifth Prince listened to Zhao Er's narration and the date that he had mentioned. The two of them didn't have any hope of getting lucky anymore. Their hearts were like dead ashes!
Even if they didn't want to admit it, they understood that the military information … had most likely been leaked by them unintentionally. If Chu Mo had heard it, he would have set up an inescapable trap in the Broken Sky Mountain Range and killed the million-strong army of the Great Qi Kingdom!
This responsibility … was too big!
They couldn't bear it!
The two princes didn't even look at each other. They had already made up their minds. They couldn't admit this even if they had to die!
"You're saying that Chu Mo came to the Great Qi Kingdom and asked you to cooperate with him to spy on the military information of the Great Qi Kingdom?" Jiang Hengyu's voice didn't reveal any emotion. His face also looked very calm as he asked.
"That's right … However, I'm in the Great Qi Kingdom. How could I cooperate with him to do such a thing?" Zhao Er said with a stern face.
He still didn't know what had happened. He also didn't know that the million-strong army of the Great Qi Kingdom had already been annihilated.
Jiang Hengyu smiled and waved his hand, "Alright, you can leave. You're not bad! Later … I'll reward you! "
Zhao Er looked puzzled as he thanked him. Then, he was led away.
Jiang Hengyu leaned on the Dragon Throne and murmured, "So … that's how it is! I didn't expect that there would always be a loophole … Is this the will of the heavens? "
"Imperial Father … we should start making arrangements to deal with Da Xia's counterattack!" The Second Prince stood up bravely and said in a deep voice, "Things have already happened. This isn't a crime of war …"
"You … shut up." Jiang Hengyu said softly and interrupted the Second Prince, "This matter … has nothing to do with you?"
"Imperial Father … I've been wronged!" The Second Prince didn't say anything else and knelt down. He didn't explain and looked at the Emperor with an aggrieved expression.
Jiang Hengyu's gaze fell on the Fifth Prince's face, "You're also hiding something from me!"
The Fifth Prince trembled and knelt on the ground, "Imperial Father, I've been wronged too!"
Jiang Hengyu took a deep breath and suddenly stood up. He pulled out a sharp saber from the waist of the guards at the steps and rushed towards the Second Prince.
"Your Majesty, don't!"
"Your Majesty, please have mercy!"
"Quick, stop His Majesty!"
It was chaos in front of the Golden Palace.
The Second Prince was scared out of his wits. He knelt there and watched helplessly as his Imperial Father chopped at his head with his saber.
He even forgot to dodge.
This saber … was extremely sharp. Jiang Hengyu had used up almost all the strength in his body for this slash!
Although his martial arts skills were ordinary, he was still at the Metal Stone Realm!
Even though he had completely relied on elixirs to increase his strength, that strength … was definitely the strength of the Metal Stone Realm!
Crack!
The Second Prince's head was split in half by Jiang Hengyu's saber.
White brain matter mixed with red blood instantly flowed all over the ground.
The entire Golden Palace was dead silent.
Everyone was dumbfounded as they looked at their Emperor in disbelief. It was only at this moment that someone realized that the Emperor's calmness … was not real calmness, but a false calmness after extreme madness and collapse!
In short, the Emperor … had gone mad!
Jiang Hengyu would never admit that he had gone mad. After killing his Second Prince, he turned his cold gaze towards the Fifth Prince. He suddenly roared, "Tell me, was it you?!"
