Chapter 938: Patricide! The fate of Prince Yu and his son
After the eldest prince succeeded in his attack, he immediately retreated and ran far away, still laughing wildly.
"You've locked me up in this inhospitable place, making me suffer so much. You might as well kill me with a knife.
I am the crown prince, and yet here I am being bullied by my servants. They don't give me food or water, they are just cheap bastards who act according to the wind. Kill you! Kill you all!
"Father?" The third and fourth princes were shocked. They ran forward and quickly caught the emperor's falling body. They looked at the eldest prince who was dancing with joy not far away in disbelief.
The eldest prince had actually killed his father! They had never expected that their father, who had been so shrewd throughout his life, would not die at the hands of the rebels, but at the hands of his favorite eldest prince.
"Huh~" The emperor opened his eyes wide. He had never expected that this would be his end.
At this moment, scenes of his past glory flashed through his mind, and he had even begun to plan how he would live in the future.
He had thought about how miserable his life would be, but he never imagined that he would die in such a miserable way, at the hands of his most beloved son.
"Your Majesty! Please hold on, we will leave the city immediately to find a doctor for you." The Fourth Prince burst into tears. No matter what, he still had feelings for his father.
"It's... too late! Go... find... Jiang... Youzhen!" The emperor gave instructions for his funeral in a halting manner, and then pointed at the eldest prince with all his strength, but he died before he could say anything.
The dagger pierced the emperor's heart. Even if the Golden Immortal came, there was no way to save him.
"Father! Father!" The third prince panicked when he saw that the emperor had actually passed away.
"Father, Father! What will we do if you die?"
"Dead! That's great. I'm going to kill you all. I'm going to let you all die!" When the eldest prince saw the emperor breathe his last, he actually clapped his hands and cheered, and then his expression became ferocious.
He rushed towards the Fourth Prince. The guards around him had no time to react and had already stabbed him with their swords. The sword hit him in the chest. The eldest prince's body paused, and then he spit out blood and slowly fell to the ground.
His eyes were wide open, as if he was dying with his eyes open.
The Third and Fourth Princes watched all this, but did nothing to stop it. The First Prince had gone mad! Completely mad! If he fell into the hands of the rebels, he wouldn't have a good end. It would be better for him to die and be done with it!
"Now our father has passed away! His last words were for us to find Jiang Youzhen. Third brother, what are your plans?"
The fourth prince was holding the emperor's body in confusion, so he asked.
"Of course we have to go find Jiang Youzhen. The tiger talisman is still in his possession. But before that, we have to continue contacting people like Li Dongsheng. If we want to make a comeback, we need their support."
"Your Highness, we have to leave quickly! I'm afraid someone will come later!" Yuan Shang reminded the Fourth Prince at this time.
"But what about father?" The fourth prince was still holding the emperor's body.
The third prince took one look at the corpse and finally made up his mind.
"It's already difficult for us to escape, and it will be even more difficult if we take Father with us. It's better to bury him here. We can find a way to return to the capital in the future and move Father to the imperial mausoleum."
After the Third Prince said this, the Fourth Prince also felt that this was the best solution. So the two brothers worked hard to dig a big hole and buried the emperor in it.
Then they took a look at the eldest prince's body and buried him together with the emperor.
At this time, Jiang Youzhen had already left the capital city far away. She had finally managed to move 50,000 reinforcements, 30,000 of whom followed her first, and the remaining 20,000 followed immediately. She was now rushing back with her soldiers.
However, what she didn't know was that the palace had been occupied by barbarians at this moment.
The third prince and the fourth prince found Li Dongsheng and his men to fight against the enemy together, but were forced to retreat repeatedly.
"Prince Yu, don't be silly! Now that our father is dead, do you think Nurhe and the others are willing to support your ascension to the throne?"
The Fourth Prince now hated Prince Yu to the core. If it weren't for his stupidity, how could his father have died at the hands of his eldest brother? It hadn't been long before the entire dynasty was on the verge of collapse.
"Come here, capture Nurhe for me!" Prince Yu first sneered, and then suddenly gave an order to the rear.
However, the next moment, there was a strange silence behind him. Prince Yu turned his head to look at the soldiers behind him, but found that they were completely motionless.
"Are you deaf? I'll let you capture Nurhe!" shouted the Prince of Rongguo.
"I advise you not to waste your time, these are all my people!" Nurhe suddenly opened his arms and laughed.
"We in the Northern Ming Kingdom have been planning this for far too long. We've been swapping children who look like people from the Central Plains for decades, and today we're finally reaping the rewards."
Nurhe looked at the soldiers behind him and said, "Come here! Capture Prince Yu and the Crown Prince of Rong!"
Prince Yu and his men were greatly shocked and wanted to resist immediately, but unfortunately, two fists are no match for four hands. How could the two of them and a few guards be their match?
"Nurhe, you people from the Northern Ming Kingdom are so ambitious, you will all die a miserable death!" Prince Yu shouted angrily.
At this time, he had been controlled by the people around Nurhe and could only shout helplessly.
This unexpected change surprised Li Dongsheng and the others, but it also proved that the Dayun Dynasty had long been infiltrated by spies from the Northern Ming Kingdom.
Seeing the fate of Prince Yu and his son, they felt a little happy, but they couldn't help but worry about their future.
"I will not die a good death? Then I will make you die a bad death first!" Nurhe suddenly drew out his sword and slashed at Prince Yu's neck.
Then a round object rolled to the ground, and blood gushed out from his neck in a spray-like manner.
"Father, you killed my father!" When the Crown Prince of Rongguo saw his father being killed by Nurhe, he was shocked and filled with grief.
"You are of no use now!" Nurhe stepped forward and stabbed the prince of Rongguo in the chest with a sword.
At this point, the two rebel leaders died at the hands of enemy spies.
"Listen up, you people of Dayun Kingdom! As long as you surrender, I will show mercy! What difference does it make to you who is the emperor anyway? Why are you so blindly loyal?"
As he spoke, he said to the guards beside him, "Pass the order! Anyone who hangs a white flag at the gate of the mansion will be considered to have submitted to our Northern Ming Kingdom and will be spared!
"As long as you stay in the palace obediently, I will show mercy when the time comes to settle accounts. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!"
"Yes!"
"Even if I die in battle here today, I will never surrender to your Northern Ming Kingdom." Qin Yandong clenched the spear in his hand and made up his mind.
"Me too!" Li Dongsheng followed.
"Listen up, men of the Dayun Dynasty! We are not cowards! Today, we must either die in battle or the enemy be defeated! It's either you or me!"
