Chapter 255: Lazy People Can't Sit on the Throne
Chapter 255: Lazy People Can't Sit on the Throne
One of the people at the relief hall scratched the back of his head and asked in confusion, "But he is standing on the bomb. Is he planning to die with his enemy?"
Tang Xiluo blinked and said, "There is no other way. I can only ascend the throne reluctantly."
Everyone: “???”
Xiaoyu's mouth twitched. Sister, she wants to ascend the throne? But she is too lazy. If she really ascends the throne, who will review those memorials?
"Ahem, sis. I won't help you with the work." He was busy with his own business. He was only interested in money.
Tang Xiluo glanced at him helplessly, "Who asked you to work? And what can you do?"
He might be able to do other things, but as for managing a country... no one knows unless they have tried.
"Don't worry about it. Lei Shijiu knows what's going on. He still has his country and his people in his heart. How could he possibly perish together with them?"
"Hey, hey, hey, stop talking, stop talking, someone is coming."
Soon the city gate opened, and the dark-haired man in the lead strode out with his usual arrogance on his face.
"Second brother, you finally escaped death, why are you back again? I won't be so kind and let you go this time!"
Lei Nineteen's face was gloomy, "I will not run away this time, I want to avenge my mother!"
"Hahahaha! Just you? You come to me alone to seek revenge? I can crush you to death just like crushing an ant. I think you are here to die!"
I had originally spared his life out of mercy out of brotherhood, but I didn't expect that he would actually come back to die.
I have already given him one chance, and I will definitely not let him go this time.
"Don't worry, Second Brother. You will be reunited with your mother soon."
Lei Shijiu's eyes suddenly turned bloodshot, "Shut up! What qualifications do you have to call her mother? You don't deserve it! If I had known that you were an ungrateful person, I shouldn't have taken you in in the first place!"
"Hahaha! That's because you are stupid! In the royal family, how many people would exchange true love for true love? In the palace, you are still thinking about being kind? It's your naivety that killed you!"
Lei Shijiu looked up at the sky. Is there really no true love in the royal family? What about the emperor and the prince of the Warring States period? They were the ones he envied the most, but he met an ungrateful person.
"Did Second Brother have any last words before he died?"
A tear fell from Lei Shijiu's eyes. "I want to know, your mother won't stop you at all, why do you want to hurt her?!"
As a woman who lived in harmony with the world and had no power to restrain her, she could not stop him from ascending the throne. Since her mother was not an obstacle to his ascending the throne, why did she do it?
The man opposite burst into laughter, and as he laughed, a tear rolled down the corner of his eye.
"Who said she wouldn't stop me? She's been trying to get me to give up! I think she just doesn't want me to take the throne. I guess she wants you to take that position, right?"
Which concubine in the harem doesn't want her son to ascend the throne? I am just an adopted son, and they are all planning for their biological sons.
But I have nothing and can only rely on myself.
Lei Nineteen sneered, "These are just your own guesses. Mother only advised you a few words. If you still insist on being stubborn, she won't stop you..."
Maybe his mother knew his temper, so she wanted to persuade him to live a happy and free life, but he was too stubborn and paranoid.
"Stop talking nonsense. The person is already dead. There is no point in saying these things now! I am a little sad, but I definitely don't regret it! Because I succeeded. The winner is the king and the loser is the enemy. What does it matter if I sacrifice some insignificant people on the way to the throne?"
Isn't it like this in every dynasty? Not just our own country, but every country has developed in this way.
"Second brother, since we grew up together, please leave a last message. Tell me if there is anything you are worried about."
Lei Shijiu curled his lips indifferently, "I should be the one saying this to you."
The man opposite was already getting impatient. "How dare you come here alone and say such arrogant words? Don't your friends come to accompany you? As the second prince of our country, don't you feel ashamed to be with them?"
"Oh, by the way, Mother was still thinking about you before she died. Do you miss her too now? Don't worry, you will meet again soon. I can give you a quick death."
Lei Shijiu looked at him deeply, then kept backing away.
"emperor!"
"Everyone, be careful!"
"Protect the Emperor!"
The man raised a hand, "Archers, get ready!"
With his order, all the bows and arrows on the city wall were ready.
"Second brother, guess why I dared to go out to greet you? How could I come out without making all the necessary preparations? I just didn't expect you to come here alone. Don't blame me if you want to die."
"Prepare!"
All the bows and arrows were aimed at Lei Nineteen.
Lei Shijiu kept retreating, slowly moving away from the bomb, while they were approaching him step by step, and also approaching the bomb step by step.
Xiaoyu and everyone in the relief hall were worried. If he gave the order to shoot in advance, everything would be over.
Lei Shijiu looked at the terrain and was worried that he would have his men shoot arrows at this moment, so he deliberately created a topic to delay time.
"What medicine did you give my mother?"
"Hahahaha, if you want to know so much, just go down and ask her yourself!"
Lei Shijiu's eyes were filled with hatred. "What about the father? The father is also you..."
"Hahahaha! That's right, I was the one who killed the emperor. They are partial to each other! They are partial to you! You are also a bastard, but the emperor wants to pass the throne to you. If that's the case, why can't I do that?"
Lei Shijiu's hands were shaking with anger. "That's our father! Your mother isn't your biological mother, but your father is! Do you still have any conscience?!"
"Hahahaha! The most taboo thing in the royal family is talking about conscience. If I had a little more conscience, I wouldn't be alive today!"
"Second brother, why are you still retreating? The matter is already a foregone conclusion! Do you still expect to escape? With so many arrows pointed at you, you can't escape even if you have three heads and six arms, or even wings."
Lei Shijiu's heart was beating fast. He drew out his sword and said, "Do you dare to fight me?!"
"Second brother, you are too naive. I am the emperor now! How can you compete with me?"
Suddenly, Lei Shijiu turned around and used his lightness skills to quickly leave the place.
And he shouted, "Now!"
