Chapter 257: The Death of a Prince

The capital suddenly became apprehensive because something big had happened.

The Eldest Prince, Ao Tang, and the Second Prince, Ao Chong, had actually joined forces to rebel!

However, it ended before it even started

Ao Tang and Ao Chong were in an extremely sorry state. They were lying on the ground and looking up at Ao Jie, while Ao Jie had a calm expression from beginning to end.

How stupid. Who was Ao Heng? How could he, someone who killed his father to ascend to the throne, not be vigilant?

Ao Heng didn't attack, but he had sent the news to the Empress, Lin Shu. How could Lin Shu ignore it? She wished she could eliminate all the other princes beside Ao Jie!

It was Lin Shu who gave Ao Tang and Ao Chong the illusion that starting a mutiny at this moment was the best choice! However, it was also Lin Shu who blocked all their escape routes! Lin Shu destroyed their cooperation with the Nujiang Kingdom!

These two silly brothers were played by everyone.

Ao Jie, so you've been pretending to be weak all these years! Ao Tang glared at Ao Jie.

How foolish! Ao Jie chuckled. His expression made Ao Tang and Ao Chong furious.

Ao Jie, don't be smug. Your outcome won't be any better than ours! Qiao Yanhui will definitely kill you and seize the throne himself! No one isn't tempted by the throne. Ao Chong's expression was ferocious as he spoke.

Ao Jie didn't think much of it, but Lin Shu couldn't stand it. She immediately said, Send these two rebellious princes to the death row! Lin Shu's eyes were filled with resentment. Leaving them alive would bring them trouble, just like Qiao Yanhui would.

What Lin Shu regretted the most now was leaving Qiao Yanhui alive back then!

Ao Jie looked at the vicious Lin Shu indifferently. Perhaps outsiders would think that this mother had done many things for her son, but Ao Jie knew that his mother didn't love him at all. She only loved power!

It was also because of her love that his childhood had been plagued with trauma and fear!

In the end, Ao Tang and Ao Chong were killed by Lin Shu, but everyone knew that Ao Heng tacitly agreed.

Ao Jie had been unstable for the past two days, so Qiao Yanhui brought him into the Qiao family's house.

From Ao Jie's expression, Xu Qing knew that Ao Jie must have been traumatized.

Xu Qing could only concoct some medicine to temporarily alleviate Ao Jie's heart palpitations, but it only got rid of the symptoms instead of the root problem.

Xu Qing lowered her head and pondered. Ao Tang and Ao Chong's deaths traumatized Ao Jie. Perhaps his illness is related to this However, this is the first time someone has been killed among the princes. How could he

As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Qing and Qiao Yanhui looked at each other at the same time.

It's because of your siblings! Xu Qing guessed.

Qiao Yanhui pursed his lips and clenched his fists slightly.

Qiao Yanqi Xu Qing felt that Qiao Yanqi was the only breakthrough point now.

There are some things I still need to confirm. Qiao Yanhui's expression was solemn.

So Qiao Yanqi really wasn't Qiao Yanhui's biological sister? No wonder she had romantic feelings for Qiao Yanhui and hated the women around Qiao Yanhui

Xu Qing didn't ask further. She knew that Qiao Yanhui felt terrible. After all, he used to be the closest person to her in the world. Now, they were enemies. Anyone would feel terrible.

As the news of Ao Tang and Ao Chong's deaths spread, the envoys of the other countries returned to their countries one after another. It seemed that everything was back on track.

Golden Jade Hall had also reopened and was as lively as ever.

Among the four large countries, only New Heavenly Kingdom and Nujiang Kingdom were left. New Heavenly Kingdom stayed because of Yi Chulin, while Nujiang Kingdom stayed because of Zhuo Wuyou.

Zhuo Cheng wanted to bring Zhuo Wuyou back to the country, but Ao Heng refused to let him go. Zhuo Cheng couldn't ask for anything else. After all, he had almost participated in this coup, so he was already lucky enough that Ao Heng didn't detain him!

However, Zhuo Cheng's observation period of Zhuo Wuyou wasn't over. He had a feeling that Zhuo Wuyou wasn't as simple as he seemed.

Third Brother, Father and Mother miss you very much. You really don't want to think of a way to go back with me? Zhuo Cheng looked at the man who was gardening. He knew it was a test.

Huang Zhi, who was standing at the side like a statue, sneered in his heart. They were probably wondering when Zhuo Wuyou would die. Those people were really heartless. They didn't even let their biological son off!

Zhuo Wuyou had a mocking expression as he said, I'll wait a little longer. I'll go back eventually. When he went back, the situation in Nujiang Kingdom would change.

Zhuo Cheng's heart skipped a beat. Although he knew that his father and mother didn't want to pass the throne to Zhuo Wuyou, he felt a sense of danger. The more Zhuo Cheng thought about it, the angrier he became. He had to get rid of this man and not let anyone affect his chances of inheriting the throne.
