Chapter 107: He Lianhuan used a plan to ambush, and Helian Jue made a bet on becoming emperor?
No one expected that He Lianhuan would suddenly kill the old emperor.
This arrow was merciless, yet extremely lethal. It penetrated directly through the back of the old emperor's head, and the tip of the arrow penetrated the center of his eyebrows.
The old emperor died on the spot.
Time seemed to have stood still, with only the cold wind whistling in my ears.
After a while, Helian Jue suddenly shouted at He Lianhuan at the top of his lungs.
"He Lianhuan, you are crazy. Do you know what you are doing?"
This roar completely broke the silence. Everyone came back from disbelief and looked at He Lianhuan.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has taken control of the overall situation, and the old emperor was forced to abdicate. Why did the second prince want to kill him?
Did he think that killing the emperor would change the situation?
This is obviously impossible. Even they understand the truth, and it is impossible for the extremely smart Second Highness to not think of it.
Why did he commit such a perverse act as patricide?
It can't be just to anger His Highness the Crown Prince!
His Highness's thoughts are elusive, and no one can guess what he is thinking.
Helianhuan slowly put down the hand that was holding the bow and shooting the arrow, and stood there silently, enduring the curious looks from everyone around him.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Helian Jue felt indescribably uncomfortable.
"Why don't you say anything? Why do you still want to kill my father when he is gone?"
"..."
"Killing your own father with your own hands, do you still have any humanity?"
Helianjue had always known that Helianhuan was scheming and ruthless, but he never thought that Helianhuan would be crazy enough to kill his father.
Helian Jue was rarely as excited as he was at this moment, so excited that his body was trembling.
"Killing your father will get you stabbed in the spine, do you know that?"
He Lianhuan, who had never responded, had a sneer on his lips.
"Helianjue, you are too naive. I am helping you."
It's okay if he didn't say it. After saying this, Helian Jue became even more angry.
Did he kill his father to help him?It was clearly meant to harm him.
"Come here, capture He Lianhuan." He Lianjue gave the order, and the cavalry and infantry immediately surrounded He Lianhuan and his men.
Under the suppression of the army, He Lianhuan had no power to resist.
He knew that resisting would be useless, so he simply let the two soldiers put the knives on his neck and press him in front of Lord Helian.
The two looked at each other indifferently.
He Lianhuan was emotionally stable, and in Jue Helian's opinion, he was unrepentant.
Helian Jue took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
"As long as you kneel down and repent to your father, I will spare your life."
"Haha——" He Lianhuan suddenly laughed sarcastically.
"Why are you laughing?" Helianjue frowned.
He Lianhuan looked at him with a strange look, as if he was looking at a simple-minded fool.
Strictly speaking, everyone present was not smart compared to He Lianhuan.
"Helianjue, I admit that you are very filial, but your filial piety is stupid filial piety. You really can't see why I want to kill my father?"
"..." Helian Jue was speechless for a moment because he really couldn't tell.
Not only him, but most of the people present did not understand He Lianhuan's purpose of killing the emperor.
Gu Wangshu's gaze has been following He Lianhuan. Even if someone presses on his neck at this moment, it is difficult to erase his noble and clean demeanor.
The He Lianhuan in front of him overlapped with the He Lianhuan in his previous life.
She suddenly remembered that He Lianhuan in his previous life was not as isolated and helpless as he is now. At that time, he had an army protecting him.
Gu Wangshu suddenly realized that it was He Lianhuan who had obtained the Tiger Talisman in his previous life.
He first killed the eldest prince Helianzheng, then killed Concubine Wen, and finally stood in front of the old emperor like Shura with a blood-stained sword.
No matter how the old emperor begged for mercy, he showed no mercy and chopped off the old emperor's head with one sword.
At that time he said something, he said:
"Father, if you don't die, how can you be worthy of the loyal ministers and good generals who were killed by you? I just ended your life with one sword, which is merciful enough for the murders you committed."
He said this in his previous life. Is it also because of this reason that the old emperor died at his hands again in this life?
However, the one hundred thousand soldiers at the border were not frozen to death, and all the important officials in the court were still alive. He Lianhuan should have no reason to kill the old emperor.
Why?Even Gu Wangshu couldn't figure it out.
But her intuition told her that He Lianhuan must have killed the old emperor for the sake of Helian's country, because his situation was much bigger than everyone present.
Having only met him a few times, Gu Wangshu felt that everything he did was from the perspective of "taking the overall situation into consideration" aside from his prejudice against him.
"Do you admit your mistake or not?" He Lian Jue looked at He Lian Huan.
He Lianhuan replied lightly: "I was not wrong, why should I admit my mistake?"
His calm attitude made Helian Jue think that he was just a stubborn and unrepentant white-eyed wolf.
With father's sperm and mother's blood, no matter how big a mistake the father made, it would not be his son's turn to kill him.
He Lianhuan must be crazy.
In anger, Helianjue raised his sword and pointed at Helianhuan.
Seeing this, Gu Wangshu's heart tightened, and his body reacted before his brain, and he stepped in front of He Lianhuan.
The arrow in Helian Jue's hand was only one punch away from the tip of Gu Wangshu's nose.
No one expected that she would suddenly come forward to protect He Lianhuan.
Gu Chengfeng, Lu Yusheng and others' hearts almost jumped out of their throats, and they couldn't help but scream in surprise.
"Little Shu..."
Gu Wangshu also came to his senses at this moment, his eyes swept over the extremely sharp sword in front of him, and his heart was beating wildly.
She gritted her teeth and looked at Helian Jue.
Helianjue was also surprised. He had no intention of killing Helianhuan, just as he would not kill the old emperor. He would not do anything that violated human ethics unless it was absolutely necessary.
Seeing Gu Wangshu protecting He Lianhuan, with a hint of worry in her eyes, Helian Jue frowned slightly.
"Gu Wangshu, do you know what you are doing?"
"..." Gu Wangshu was silent. She really didn't know why she was acting like this. Deep down in her heart, she seemed to not want He Lianhuan to be killed by Lord Helian.
She was not familiar with He Lianhuan, so why would she have such an idea?
Maybe it's because He Lianhuan once helped her with a folding fan, or maybe it's because He Lianhuan killed the old emperor to relieve her of the bad breath in her heart?
No matter what the reason was, it was true that she didn't want to see him die under Lord Helian's sword.
"Do you think it was right for him to kill his father?" Helian Jue asked.
"Yes! The emperor deserves to die. His Highness did nothing wrong."
Helian Jue looked at her with extremely strange eyes, unable to believe that such treacherous words came from Gu Wangshu's mouth.
The first time the two met, Gu Wangshu left a deep impression on him.
She is dignified, calm, and intelligent. As a housewife, she can analyze the court situation clearly, making as much concessions as any man.
He had always admired Gu Wangshu very much and felt that Gu Wangshu would not do anything outrageous.
But she did it anyway and wanted to protect He Lianhuan.
"Gu Wangshu, do you know what you are talking about?"
Gu Wangshu confronted the prince for the first time.
"Do I still need to list the crimes committed by the emperor in detail in front of important ministers?"
