Chapter 308 Forced to Revolt
Chapter 308 Forced to Revolt
Gu Xi dragged Emperor Jichang off the dragon throne and pulled him forward, like he was leading a disobedient donkey.
As she walked, she slowly said:
"Rebellion? Actually, I have never thought about rebelling. I just want to protect my family and the peace and prosperity of the country. Because I don't want this throne at all!"
"If I want to rebel, what can the Imperial Guards do to me? Now, take me to find the Gu family. If you cooperate, I can still spare your life. Otherwise--"
There was murderous intent in Gu Xi's eyes.
Emperor Jichang was dragged by Gu Xi, stumbling forward, trying to break free but unable to. He roared:
"Where is the secret guard? Kill him for me!"
Several secret guards holding long swords flew over from the air and stabbed Gu Xi directly.
Gu Xi grabbed Emperor Jichang by the collar with one hand and took out a handful of sleeping pills with the other hand and threw them into the air.
At the same time, he held his breath and kindly grabbed Emperor Jichang's dragon robe and covered his mouth and nose.
The dog emperor cannot faint until he finds his mother.
"Gudong" and "Plop!" There were sounds.
All the secret guards fell to the ground like dumplings and fainted.
Some ministers who were closer had inhaled the drug and fell down instantly.
Emperor Jichang was horrified. This medicine was even more powerful than the knockout drug and could make people faint instantly.
The commander of the Royal Guards shouted:
"Escort!"
But just as he finished shouting, a huge, cold knife was placed on his neck.
Chu Zhao shouted:
"Let's see who dares to move!"
The veins on Emperor Jichang's forehead bulged:
"What a Chu family! They colluded with Qi Dasheng and plotted a rebellion. Capture them. If there is resistance, kill them without mercy! Whoever captures this traitor will be promoted three levels!"
Although the Imperial Guards were afraid of Chu Zhao's military power, they knew there would be brave men when there was a big reward, so they rushed over in a swarm relying on their numbers.
Chu Zhao stood in front of Gu Xi, and the sword in his hand drew a sharp arc in the air, and the leader of the Royal Guards fell to the ground.
The knife flashed, and the blade was covered in blood. Chu Zhao's figure was like an insurmountable barrier. All the royal guards who rushed forward were injured by Chu Zhao.
Gu Xi said leisurely:
"It's so tiring to kill people, don't you know how to use medicine?"
Chu Zhao had some drugs given by Gu Xi on him. If he spread a packet of them out, a large group of people would faint.
Chu Zhao raised his sword and slashed it down. Another imperial guard who rushed forward had his sword-wielding hand chopped off, and let out a scream.
Chu Zhao said:
"I haven't used a knife for a long time. I'm getting a bit rusty. I'll just practice for a while."
The main thing is that today's incident requires some blood to create a deterrent effect.
Emperor Jichang: "..."
What do these two think the palace is? A training ground?
The Imperial Guards were blocked by Chu Zhao alone. Emperor Jichang was grabbed by the collar and could not break free no matter how hard he tried.
He shouted to his three sons:
"Whoever kills Qi Dasheng will be the crown prince!"
Now, the eyes of the three princes lit up.
"Father! Your son is here to save you!"
The second prince got a sword from somewhere and covered his mouth and nose with a sweat towel to prevent himself from being drugged.
Then, while Chu Zhao was resisting the Imperial Guards in front, he stabbed towards Gu Xi.
He does have some skills, but unfortunately, in Gu Xi's eyes, he is still like an ant.
Gu Xi did not dodge or evade. Just when the tip of the sword was about to pierce Gu Xi's chest, Gu Xi quickly dodged, let go of Emperor Jichang's collar, and stood aside.
The Second Prince could not stop the momentum of his sword and stabbed straight towards Emperor Jichang.
then……
The second prince stared blankly at the person in front of him whose shoulder he had stabbed.
"Father! Your son...your son..."
He was terrified.
"Shut up! Idiot!" Emperor Jichang cursed with his lips trembling in pain.
The second prince was scolded so much that he was at a loss what to do. In panic, he drew out his sword again.
"Ah!!!" Emperor Jichang screamed and blood splattered.
Everyone: Hiss—it hurts just looking at it.
The fifth prince and the sixth prince were delighted.
No matter what the second brother's starting point was, since he stabbed his father with his own hands, there is one less competitor for the position of crown prince.
In order to prove the Second Prince's guilt, the Fifth Prince even shouted:
"Second brother! How could you kill the king?!"
"I didn't, I wasn't..." The second prince was so scared that he threw the sword in his hand to the ground and explained in panic.
The Sixth Prince was smart. He picked up a knife and put it on the neck of Old Marquis Chu.
"Chu Zhao! Stop! Otherwise I will kill the Marquis of Chu!"
Old Marquis Chu sat cross-legged in his seat. Even though the Sixth Prince had a knife at his neck, he still calmly drank a sip of tea.
It's just that my mood is complicated.
Unexpectedly, the Chu family would eventually embark on this path.
He didn't know whether it was right or wrong, but since his grandson had made the choice, he, as a grandfather, could only protect him.
Emperor Jichang, lying in a pool of blood, covered his wound with one hand and looked at the Sixth Prince with admiration in his eyes.
Qi Dasheng is alone in taking down the Chu family, and today is the day of his death!
Chu Zhao turned around and sighed:
"Grandfather, I told you not to come, but you wouldn't listen."
The originally calm old man got so angry that his eyebrows stood up when he heard Chu Zhao's words.
"You little brat! You still dare to lecture your grandfather! Is your grandfather so useless?!"
After saying this, he swung his knife back and hit the Sixth Prince's knife-holding hand.
"Clang!" The big knife fell to the ground.
Old Marquis Chu took advantage of the situation and grabbed the Sixth Prince's arm, using the force to help him stand up, then twisted his body upwards as fast as lightning.
"Ah!!!" The Sixth Prince screamed as his arm was removed.
Chu Zhao chuckled:
"No, no, grandpa is still as skilled as ever!"
The ministers then remembered that old Marquis Chu was once the number one military commander in An Ning State!
Although he is old, he is still not good enough as the Sixth Prince.
Emperor Jichang was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
The bloody hole on my shoulder hurt even more.
What's wrong with An Mengde? The Royal Guards have been here for a while, why haven't the Northern soldiers come yet?
"Who else can protect me? Make him a duke!" He shouted tremblingly, enduring the pain.
Most of the ministers are civil officials, and even if they want to be rewarded, they do not have the ability to do so.
Some generals wanted to step forward, but they saw Old Marquis Chu pick up a knife, walk to the middle of the hall, and glance around fiercely.
Among the military generals, many were former soldiers of the old Marquis Chu. Seeing this scene, most of them retreated.
However, two generals still rushed forward for the reward. They also covered their mouths and noses with sweat towels and attacked the old Marquis Chu.
After all, the Imperial Master was too evil, Chu Zhao was too brave, and only the old Marquis Chu was the oldest and looked weaker.
Considering the age of Old Marquis Chu, Gu Xi was afraid that something might happen to him, so he took out his pistol.
With two "bangs", two bloody holes immediately appeared on the foreheads of the two generals, and they fell to the ground and died.
Seeing that more and more Imperial Guards were attacking Chu Zhao, Gu Xi fired a few more shots in their direction.
Suddenly, a few more fell down.
Everyone in the hall, except Chu Zhao, was extremely shocked.
