After my rebirth, I married my ex-husband and his uncle

Chapter 378 I want to live
Emperor Yongjia died and was killed by Li Zhou.

The old emperor of Daxia died alone on the altar he had painstakingly built.

Li Zhou let go of the dagger he was clenched in his hand and stood up unsteadily, staring blankly at the old emperor whose chest had stopped beating.

He looked up at the vast night sky, the blood moon had already set in the west, and the matter was finally coming to an end.

"Queen mother, my son finally avenged you, did you see it in the sky?" Li Zhou whispered to the vast and vast sky.

On the other side, Wang Yan escaped from the siege of Lu Ci and the others and rushed to Emperor Yongjia's side. What he saw was this scene. The eldest prince was standing two steps away from Emperor Yongjia with blood on his hands, and Emperor Yongjia's eyes were bleeding on the ground. , with a deadly dagger stuck in his chest, lying motionless on the ground.

Wang Yan was stunned, the emperor is dead?

"Eldest Prince? Did you kill His Majesty?" Wang Yan asked Li Zhou blankly.

Li Zhou looked down at Wang Yan, the corners of his mouth twitched, revealing a knowing smile.

Wang Yan's heart suddenly sank to the bottom of the valley. The emperor died, and all his plans fell through.

"You shouldn't have killed him." Wang Yan shook his head and said.

Li Zhou raised his eyebrows and said, "Elder-in-law's tone sounds like it's for my own good?"

Wang Yan: "If you kill him, you will bear the responsibility of regicide and patricide. The world will not tolerate a person who kills regicide and patricide as the emperor of Great Xia."

"Being the emperor?" Li Zhou suddenly laughed, "Did I say that I would be the emperor?"

Wang Yan was taken aback: "If you don't want to be the emperor, then what are you going to do all this trouble for? Just to avenge Empress Lu?"

Li Zhou nodded: "Yes, I just want to avenge my mother. As for the throne, whoever cares about it will sit, anyway, this king doesn't care about it anymore."

Seeing Li Zhou's appearance, Wang Yan was speechless for a while.

After staying in the palace for a long time, he got used to the conspiracy and scheming, scrambling for power, and there are several layers of purpose behind one thing, and when he suddenly faced Li Zhou, who was pure and direct in doing things, Wang Yan lost his composure for a while.

However, after years of struggling at the peak of power in Shangjing, Wang Yan quickly adjusted his mentality, looked at Li Zhou, and then at Lu Ci who was catching up.

Wang Yan suddenly knelt down: "This servant is willing to do the same for His Highness."

Those who know the current affairs are heroes, Wang Yan thought very clearly that the old emperor of the empire is dead, and it is time to switch to the new emperor.

Li Zhou was slightly surprised, looked at the loyal Wang Yan on the ground, suddenly smiled, and sighed: "My father-in-law is indeed a person who can be the supervisor of ceremonies and seal the eunuch, but the father-in-law seems to have forgotten that the queen mother seems to let me Came to kill you."

Wang Yan knelt down on the ground: "Your Highness, a slave is more useful alive than dead, and a slave can do many things for you."

Li Zhou glanced at Lu Ci, saw that Lu Ci did not move, so he lowered his head again and asked, "Oh? Really? Tell me, what can you do for me?"

Wang Yan raised his head, looked flatteringly at Li Zhou and said, "I can make Your Highness the emperor."

Wang Yan doesn't believe that there are people in this world who don't want to be emperor, and he doesn't believe that there are people in this world who can refuse the supreme power.

Li Zhou shook his head and said amusedly, "I remember that I said just now that I didn't want to be an emperor, and didn't you say that just now? I'm a regicide and patricide, so I can't be an emperor."

Wang Yan slapped himself with a "snap": "It was all slaves talking nonsense just now. The late emperor died of sorcery and has nothing to do with His Highness."

Li Zhou really admired Wang Yan's ability to talk people and talk nonsense when he sees people. He ignored the facts, said black things into white things, and white things into black things.

Li Zhou: "Elder-in-law, I really want to forgive you, but I can't disobey the queen mother's edict, so you should go on the road to accompany the late emperor. As for whether I will be emperor or not, I don't care if I am a regicide or a patricide." Don't worry, this king has his own way."

Wang Yan raised his head in astonishment, and just yelled "Dian", before the next "Down" could be said, the head was already chopped off and fell to the ground, and the body was separated.

He probably didn't understand until his death that there would really be people who refused supreme power in this world.

After killing Wang Yan, Lu Ci walked up to Li Zhou, looked at him for consideration and said, "Your Highness, do you really want that position?"

In fact, under the current situation, the throne is already in Li Zhou's pocket, and it depends on whether Li Zhou has this ambition.

All the people in Dongchang have been controlled by them, as well as the princes, concubines, and ministers of civil and military affairs present. As long as Li Zhou thinks, they can kill those princes and concubines on the spot. Those who died by sorcery, no matter how bad it was, they could create a fire and burn the corpses. Anyway, this is the Shuoye hunting ground, and there are many ways to destroy the corpses.

After killing everyone in secret, coupled with the support of the queen mother who was far away in the capital, Li Zhou was able to ascend the throne logically.

"Oh, the emperor?" Li Zhou turned his head to look into the dark distance, and said, "I am not an emperor, uncle, my sister and I had a good time in the East China Sea. I will go back to the East China Sea after I have avenged my mother. , as for the matters in the capital, let the empress dowager worry about it, I don't have to worry about it."

Lu Ci was silent for a moment, and chose to respect Li Zhou's choice: "Even so, uncle won't force it."

Li Zhou turned his head to look at Lu Ci, smiled, and said, "This time, uncle has worked hard."

Lu Ci patted Li Zhou on the shoulder, looked at him, and blushed inexplicably: "You have worked hard all these years."

Li Zhou smiled, and said softly, "If the result is good, it's not hard work." He said, he glanced at Wang Yan and Emperor Yongjia who had died on the ground, and said, "I will trouble my uncle with the aftermath."

Lu Ci: "Leave it to me here, I will take care of it, you go down and rest, get enough energy, there is still a play to be performed tomorrow."

Li Zhou smiled: "Okay."

After Li Zhou left, Lu Ci asked people to arrange the scene according to the previous plan.Then Fa Heng, who was dying, was brought up.

Lu Ci dragged a chair and sat down, then looked down at Fa Heng condescendingly, and said to him, "Wake me up."

The subordinate understood, brought a bucket of ice water over, and poured all of it on Faheng's face.

"Cough, cough, cough," Fa Heng woke up in a state of embarrassment after being splashed with water, and as soon as he regained consciousness, he saw Lu Ci sitting in front of him.

Lu Ci's cold voice came from above Faheng's head: "Master, do you want to live?"

Although Fa Heng is old, but he is greedy for the prosperity of the world in his heart, and obviously he has never lived, otherwise he would not have taken the risk to accept Wang Yan's order. Unexpectedly, a powerful man like Eunuch Wang would have his car overturned one day. His life will be lost.

"Think, think, I want to live!"
