Chapter 524 (2/2)
Xu Hongwu followed closely and said, ”everyone knows the powerful minister of the former Emperor. Only because the princess was young at that time and the former Emperor was in his prime, he wrote this imperial edict just in case, so he privately handed it over to me for safekeeping and kept it secret. Unexpectedly, Zhao Yi, a thief, took advantage of it!”
The old Duke of the county was angry from his heart and looked at the old emperor with tears in his eyes. ”Twenty years ago, all loyal and righteous people in the Manchu Dynasty were killed, leaving only me and the Nan'an marquis to linger for breath. Today, he finally waited until the little Lord came back to the dynasty to attack you, a thief of the state! What if you don't surname Zhao? It's a thousand times and a hundred times better than you
The old emperor suddenly fell silent when he heard the speech.
Soon.
He suddenly laughed, smiled, and burst into tears. He looked like crazy, and suddenly vomited blood.
I'm going to die.
In the past, ministers kneeling at their feet were watching and dared not go forward.
Only Wang Liangwei walked over, squatted down and wiped the blood vomited by the old emperor with his sleeve.
But there was too much blood, the sleeves were penetrated, and the old emperor's face was wiped more and more dirty.
Zhao Yi is still smiling at this point.
Wang Liang couldn't help persuading: ”emperor, don't do this...”
”Cough... In my whole life, I have been humiliated for Dayan... No, no... No emperor has worked so hard for Dayan for hundreds of years...”
The old emperor kept coughing and brushed Wang Liang's hand away.
He couldn't accept Xie Heng's condescending look at him. He tried his best to stand up, but he could only fall to the ground again and again.
In the end.
The old emperor really had no strength, so he gave up his struggle.
His old face was full of tears. He stared at Xie Heng and said in a dumb voice, ”I've worked hard and thrifty for Dayan, and even married jing'er to the Western Chu... I've done everything for Dayan! Why... Why do you say I didn't do my best for Dayan? Why?”
Finally, the old emperor shouted hoarsely.
Xie Heng threw his long sword to the Qingyi guard. Everyone around him was silent.
The young man's eyes were cold and his body was full of murderous spirit. He walked step by step to the old emperor who collapsed to the ground, ”You conspired to usurp the throne and indiscriminately killed loyal and good people, which led to the weakness of Dayan's national strength. Just because you have a thief's heart to seize the throne, you have no ability to protect the peace of the people. You are invaded by neighboring countries. You only know that you should shrink your head and lose power and humiliate the country! Zhao Yi, you are so incompetent and shameless that you kill you alone. You have soiled your sword!”
Zhao Yi vomited a big mouthful of blood, even if he had more air and less air.
Wang Liang held Xie Heng's leg and cried, ”general Xie... No! Lord! He is also your elder at least. Please be kind and let him live in peace.”
The old emperor couldn't live long.
It would be nice if I passed out before.
It's better than being old and frail, having to turn over old accounts and crush all dignity.
Xie Heng took Wang Liang away and said in a deep voice, ”come here, remove Zhao Yi's Dragon Robe and golden crown, and lock it in the market with a Xuan iron cage.”
The young man's voice was cold. ”Medicine, good life, hanging his life, let him die easily. Since he knows what he has done, let the people in the imperial capital tell him how he did the emperor these years.”
Everyone shivered at the speech.
This is more cruel than killing the old emperor directly.
