I really became a king.

Chapter 43: Killing by Order

After Mo Ruhai finished speaking, he leaned over and looked carefully at the eyebrows of the three eunuchs with a look of surprise, and then looked at the golden bell hanging on the doorway.

Without waiting for Jiang Yi to say anything, he smiled and said, "Your Majesty is really lucky, a great opportunity!"

Jiang Yi's silence, killing people from a distance, and ringing the bell from a distance all indicate that he has extraordinary treasures on him. This is also the first time that Jiang Yi has exposed his trump card in front of others.

To be precise, it was a living person, because everyone who had seen his Blood-Transforming Flying Knife before was dead, and their deaths were all destroyed without leaving any trace.

"But the prince is too impulsive. Why would he kill someone in such a strategic place in the imperial city, especially the eunuch on duty at the Huolian Gate?"

Jiang Yi also calmed down and said, "The foul language they speak is hard to hear. I can only make them shut up completely."

Mo Ruhai glanced at Mo Li who was standing quietly beside Jiang Yi, nodded, and said:
"They really deserve to be killed. They are of royal blood. No matter how poor they are, they cannot be bullied by them!"

After saying that, he waved his hand and the three corpses flew into the True Fire Bridge, directly helping Jiang Yi to destroy the bodies.

Then he sighed, "Your Majesty, the Emperor is extremely distressed about Prince Duan's matter, but there are some things that are beyond one's control."

"The emperor has been keeping this True Fire Bridge closed. Just now, the flame suddenly became smaller, and he personally smashed his favorite Nine Dragon Jade Pot..."

Jiang Yi finally felt relieved after hearing this. He guessed right. The Emperor of Dali did have his own reasons for keeping silent.

Without waiting for Jiang Yi to say anything, he continued, "The emperor must be very happy that the prince can walk out of the True Fire Bridge, but..."

At this point, he bent down and picked up Jiang Yi's petition on the ground, smiled bitterly and said, "This petition, Your Majesty, please don't make it difficult for the Emperor... The Dragon Gate has been set, there is absolutely no possibility of cancellation!"

Jiang Yi smiled and said, "I'm afraid everyone has the same idea as Manager Mo, and they all think that I walked the True Fire Bridge in order to cancel the Dragon Gate Contest."

"Oh? Isn't it?" Mo Ruhai's eyes, which had been dull until now, suddenly flashed.

"Haha, Manager Mo, why don't you open it and take a look. What I ask for is the most fair and just. I don't think my royal grandfather will feel embarrassed." Jiang Yi felt more confident.

Mo Ruhai took a deep look at Jiang Yi, and slowly opened the petition in his hand, smiling and said, "If that's the case, I will temporarily be the reader and read it for the prince personally..."

Outsiders had no way of knowing what happened on the True Fire Bridge. They only knew that a stick of incense had passed since the bell rang, and still no announcement had been made.

Prince Yi and his wife Jiang Yi were really left hanging on the True Fire Bridge...

"Why is this happening? It's so unfair!" Dong Chengyang trembled all over.

"The dignified Dali royal family is so dirty and even cheats. Bah...I..." Tuo Xiaoliu put his hands on his waist, his upper body rising and falling, and spat.

But immediately, Tuo San, who was standing next to him, covered her mouth and said to her, "You can be angry, but don't curse me out loud, or I'll die." Then, she felt a pain in her finger, because Tuo Xiaoliu had bitten her.

After regaining his freedom, Camel Xiaoliu didn't say anything anymore. He was very angry, and his little mouth opened and closed, muttering in a voice that only he could hear.

"Eighth brother, I'm afraid that fourth brother is not our father's biological son!" Prince Yi Jiang Mo suddenly said.

Prince Yi Jiang Li, who was standing beside him, smiled bitterly and shook his head, knowing that this was just an angry remark. Everyone in the world knew that the fourth prince was deeply loved by the Emperor of Dali, so he said, "Don't talk nonsense. I think the Emperor must have some unavoidable difficulties."

"Why? Why would you watch seven grandchildren die? Or is it because of the rumor that 'Prince Duan has seven sons'?"

Jiang Hai beside him sighed and said, "In the final analysis, it's because she has too much power..."

In return, the two uncles remained silent. Jiang Li sighed in his heart, "Father, oh father, have you ever thought about what the consequences will be if all seven sons of my fourth brother die in the Dragon Gate Arena in a month... Everyone will be in danger, father and son will be suspicious of each other, the father will no longer be a father, and the son will no longer be a son!"

A group of people had gathered around Jiang Se and his son, chatting and laughing, full of high spirits, which also attracted many people's disgusted looks.

Many people are wondering, how can the two brothers be so partial to each other, one is a tiger and the other is a maggot, they are born from the same mother... They don't seem like mother and son, but more like enemies.

Or maybe the royal family is just ruthless...

Suddenly, a voice came from the Imperial City:
"The Crown Prince of Prince Duan's Mansion, Prince Yi Jiang Yi, and the Crown Prince's Consort, Princess Yi Mo Li, have crossed the True Fire Bridge and are now at the Fire Refining Sect. They are submitting a memorial to the Emperor of Dali:..."

A somewhat feminine, yet loud and powerful voice pierced through the sky and echoed over the imperial city. The originally noisy sounds outside the True Fire Bridge suddenly became silent.

Passed! The table above was read out, and most people simply had this thought.

However, people of prominent status like Jiang Mo, Jiang Li and others could hear the difference in the voice. It was the voice of Mo Ruhai, the chief eunuch of Dali. How could he read it out himself?
Could it be? Thinking of the biggest possibility, Prince Yi and Jiang Mo's faces flashed a hint of joy. As the shadow of the Emperor of Dali, Mo Ruhai appeared in the Fire Refining Gate and read it out in person. It was definitely not his own intention.

They guessed wrong. It was indeed Mo Ruhai's own intention to read it out in person.

He opened Jiang Yi's petition and glanced at it, his expression stiffening: "If this is the case, the emperor will certainly agree. This is also indirectly helping the emperor vent his anger."

"But this Prince Yi is really murderous!"

"This is to kill people on orders!"

Mo Ruhai glanced at the two figures standing on the True Fire Bridge, and after making up his mind, he decided to read it out himself, and the Emperor would be able to hear it clearly in Dingyuan.

Inside and outside the imperial city, everyone pricked up their ears, waiting for Mo Ruhai's next words.

"Grandfather, I, your grandson, Zhong Bao, come to you:

My father, Prince Duan Jiang Lie, abandoned his family and stayed alone in the northern border. Since the day he went north, he worked very hard, fearing that he would fail the emperor's grace, and he looked south for five years without returning home.

Now I have been attacked by a villain and am lying in bed in the northern border, with no way of knowing whether I will live or die. As a son, I am heartbroken that I cannot serve you by your bedside...

……

My father guarded the border, kept the foreign tribes out of the northern border, and led the foreign ministers to the south to pay homage... He made great contributions to the country...

……

But now an imperial decree has been issued to establish Longmen, and the entire Duan Palace is hanging by the sword. This is actually an act of extermination. What crime has the Duan Palace committed?
……

The pain in my heart is beyond words. I feel sad for my father and for the palace!

……

Today, the Empress has ordered to leave the palace, and the Dragon Gate has been established. My grandson has no other request. However, with a breath in my heart, I write this letter with tears and blood, requesting the Imperial Lord of Dali to issue an order: After a month, at the Dragon Gate, please sign a life and death statement!
After Longmen, even if all seven sons of Prince Duan were dead and the whole house was filled with mourning banners, even in the nine springs, I would still kowtow and pay homage..."

Every word was heart-wrenching and sharp as a knife. After Mo Ruhai finished reading, the entire imperial city, and even most of the imperial capital, fell into silence.

Everyone guessed wrong. It was not a request to cancel the Dragon Gate Tournament, nor was it a blood petition deliberately seeking death, but a blatant demand for human rights!

Prince Yi, Jiang Yi, is determined to fight to the end and stain Longmen with blood!
