Chapter 1458: They Deserve to Die?
That old thing, Sima Qing, was a fence sitter. Of course, he placed him in an important position because he was timid and did not dare to disobey his orders, let alone betray him.
But that same reason became Qian Jiyun’s excuse to stop him.
“Qian Jiyun, I’m impressed!” He took a deep breath.
“Don’t forget that you don’t have control over the southern border anymore. Who are you to dare say such things to me?”
“Tsk!” Qian Jiyun clicked his tongue. He was worried about the old Emperor’s intelligence.
Fortunately, Eldest Brother Yan was intelligent and not like his father. Otherwise, he would not know if he should help him as soon as possible.
“Does Your Majesty really think that son of yours can control the southern border and the 18 Stockaded Villages?”
“Well…” The old Emperor was stunned.
He could not believe it when he first received the news.
However, he had no choice but to believe it! He could only give it his all and kill Qian Jiyun if he believed that Prince De controlled the 18 Stockaded Villages.
“Qian Jiyun, did you find out something?” he asked.
So Prince De did not control the 18 Stockaded Villages at all? But why did he receive information that he did…
Was all the information he had received false?
“What did you do to Prince De? He’s my son. If you dare to do anything to him, I won’t let you off!”
Even if his authority was restricted, he was still the Emperor of Daqing Kingdom. He could issue a decree to kill someone. If Qian Jiyun angered him, he would issue a decree to kill him openly!
“Prince De is your son, but are the Eldest Prince and the Third Prince not your sons? Did they deserve to die?” Qian Jiyun asked.
So the Emperor became worked up at the mention of Prince De! Although Qian Jiyun knew that he was not anxious to know about Prince De’s safety, he was unwilling to lose control of the 18 Stockaded Villages.
“Let’s not talk about this anymore. Your Majesty, there’s something I forgot to tell you. Prince An Yang has a successor,” he reminded the old Emperor in a deep voice.
“Impossible!” The old Emperor jumped up from his chair.
He was very sure that An Tu had no descendants. How could a successor appear out of nowhere?
However, he recalled that Prince An Yang had taken a blank imperial edict when he left the capital. He also knew that Prince An Yang had asked for this blank imperial edict to find a successor for his An Yang Army.
However, he had never heard any news of Prince An Yang’s successor after so many years.
If he really had a successor, how could Prince De subdue the 18 Stockaded Villages? They would only listen to the new Prince An Yang. Prince De did not even stand a chance.
“Qian Jiyun, tell me what you know!”
“I know a lot. What do you want to hear, Your Majesty?” Qian Jiyun took a step back and looked at the old Emperor with a smile.
“For example, I’ve sent someone to take over the Longhu Guards. Also, the head of the chief of the imperial guards is hanging on the largest tree in his residence!”
“You… You… How dare you… How dare you do this!” The old Emperor pointed at Qian Jiyun, his body trembling.
