"Eunuch Tang, go and pay your respects." Nangong Ao stood there and ordered calmly, showing no trace of grief at the loss of his father.

"Yes." Eunuch Tang, who was crying on the ground, stood up.

When Nangong Ao saw Eunuch Tang going out, he immediately closed the door. At this time, Nangong Ye was still grieving the loss of his father, but Nangong Ao looked at the queen and said, "Mother, I am mourning. Nangong Feng will come with his people soon."

, do you want to make a decision quickly?"

"Ao'er?" The queen looked at Nangong Ao who was forcing her in front of her and called him angrily.

Cao Yan saw the clues, and she opened her mouth and said, "The civil and military dynasty is coming soon. Is there a posthumous edict?"

The queen's face turned pale when she heard the imperial edict, and she turned her attention to Nangong Ye, who was holding the emperor in a sad embrace.

"Ye'er, my dear son, has your father asked you to succeed to the throne?" the queen asked.

"Whoops!" The sound of a sword being unsheathed sounded. Nangong Ao pulled out his sword and pointed the sharp sword at his brother Nangong Ye who was sitting beside the dragon couch.

Nangong Ao's actions shocked everyone present. He was blatantly planning to kill the king and commit rebellion!

The queen called, "Ao'er!"

Cao Yan called, "Your Highness!"

Cao Yan and the queen both frowned and disapproved of Nangong Ao's behavior at this time. This move was too extreme and against human ethics.

Nangong Ao was blinded by anger and unwillingness. His sword was pressed against the back of Nangong Ye's neck. The cold-light sword could penetrate Nangong Ao's neck with just a little force of his hand holding the hilt.

, claimed his life.

The atmosphere became very heavy. Cao Yan and the Queen watched intently, not daring to breathe as the powerful sword tip poked Nangong Ye's neck.

Not only Cao Yan and the Queen looked nervous, but Nangong Ao himself was nervous and his heart was beating loudly. Only Nangong Ye acted like a nobody, hugging the emperor and crying, completely ignoring the sharp force on the back of his neck.

arrow.

Nangong Ye put the emperor in his arms on the bed, calmly and calmly arranged the emperor's appearance and then stood up.

Turning around and looking at Nangong Ao, who was pointing a sharp arrow at him, his always gentle eyes were filled with murderous intent. He looked at his brother Nangong Ao and said, "Is the throne so important to you?

Is it so important that you kill your father and brother?"

Nangong Ao looked at Nangong Ye questioning him in a fierce tone. He was filled with murderous intent and wanted to have a life-or-death contest with Nangong Ye regardless of brotherly love.

If he were asked to give up the throne and become a minister, he would rather die to express his ambition.

"I never had any intention of murdering my father. What you saw just now was because I was afraid that my father would fall off the dragon bed and die without dignity, so I put my hand on his hand, not to kill him.

I'm just not convinced that you will inherit the throne." Nangong Ao said.

Nangong Ye clenched his hands tightly into fists, gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Emperor, my good brother, I have never thought of competing with you for the throne.

It's because you are suspicious. From the moment you were established as the prince, you have been suspicious of me and guarded me at all times, fearing that I would compete with you for the throne.

What do I care about? Are you like a mirror in your heart?" Nangong Ye pointed at him and said.

"Ye, don't waste any more words. I won't give up the throne even if I die. If you want it, why don't you compete with me?" Nangong Ao said.

"Ao'er." The queen shouted when she saw that Nangong Ao was really going to kill her own brother.

Nangong Ye shed sad tears looking at his brother who was holding a sword in front of him and trying to take his life. He gritted his teeth and the muscles on his cheeks were shouting, "Okay!" He squeezed out one word from between his teeth.

He had a sword in his hand, and Nangong Ye was bare-handed. He decided to have a fair fight, put the sharp arrow away and threw it aside, clenching his fists and preparing to attack.

The Queen looked at the scene in front of her of two flesh and blood who were about to kill each other. She was so frightened that she could not stop it.

Cao Yan looked at the two people who were about to kill each other in front of her. She quickly stepped forward and stood between them. She looked at Nangong Ao and said, "Ao, you can't do this."

"Get out of the way." Nangong Ao, overwhelmed by anger, could no longer look back.

Cao Yan looked at Nangong Ao's red eyes, and her tears fell. He could understand his mood. After making so many preparations, in the end it was all in vain. The emperor's throne changed hands. This is really difficult for anyone to accept.

No matter how hard it is to accept, brothers can't kill each other.

"Ye." Cao Yan turned around and looked at Nangong Ye, who was also furious and shouted.

Nangong Ye gritted his teeth and the veins on his cheeks bulged. He endured the pain. If Nangong Ao insisted on killing brothers, then he had no choice but to accompany him.

"Ye, do you really want to kill each other with Ao?

Now, whether you or Ao succeeds to the throne, your biggest enemies are not each other, but the fourth prince who is about to come in, and those rebellious officials and traitors who take the opportunity to cause trouble.

Do you want to see the country that the Nangong family has built over the years be taken away by the opposite sex?" Cao Yan shouted at the two of them.

"Yan'er, get out of the way." Nangong Ye ignored Cao Yan.

"Get out of the way." Nangong Ao also shouted.

Time is running out, and this fight must end as soon as possible. Both people can't wait to kill each other.

Cao Yan stood in the middle and refused to let go. The two avoided Cao Yan and attacked each other. Nangong Ao struck Nangong Ye's face with his right fist. Nangong Ye ducked his head slightly and stretched out his leg to attack Nangong Ao's chest.

.

The two people in the room were punching each other, and I was attacking each other with palms. The sound of punches and applause made people tremble with fear.

Cao Yan glanced at the imperial edict on the ground. She quickly took it over and secretly changed the edict.

After revising the edict, she ran to the door, opened the door and shouted, "You don't need to fight, the edict is here."

She took the edict and ran out, just as the mournful Eunuch Tang came back.

"Eunuch Tang, here is the edict for you." She gave the edict to Eunuch Tang.

Eunuch Tang received the edict and said, "The princes and ministers who were attending the funeral came to Anyang Palace in an endless stream."

"Yan'er!" Nangong Ao and Nangong Ye, who chased out to grab the edict, shouted in unison.

Cao Yan looked at Nangong Ao and gave him a reassuring look. She moved her gaze to Nangong Ye, "Ye, I'm sorry."

"Yan'er!" Nangong Ye looked at Cao Yan and was extremely sad. The woman he deeply loved was so ruthless to him.

Cao Yan watched Nangong Ye burst into tears. She didn't want to do this, but if she didn't, with Ao's character of not admitting defeat or surrendering, the two brothers would definitely kill each other.

She knew in her heart that Nangong Ao cared about the throne, but Nangong Ye didn't care about the throne, so even if Nangong Ye hated her for being ruthless and unjust, she would still help Nangong Ao win the throne.

Cao Yan, who was standing there in tears, looked at Nangong Ao and then at Nangong Ye. She felt the figure in front of her began to shake, and her chest felt tight. The pain in her chest made her look pale, and her whole body went pale.

Fall down.

"Yan'er!" Looking at the person who was still standing there just now, his body suddenly fell down. Nangong Ye, who was relatively close to Cao Yan, stretched out his long arms and caught Cao Yan in his arms, who was about to fall to the ground.

Cao Yan's face turned purple and she covered her chest with her hands, looking very painful.

"Yan'er?" Nangong Ye called.

"Ye, forgive...me!" The last word was dragged out for a long time until her head dropped and her hand stopped grabbing her chest.

"Yan'er!" Nangong Ao shouted looking at Cao Yan who fell in Nangong Ye's arms.

"Yan'er!" the queen shouted in panic.

“Mr.

The little eunuch heard the order and hurried to find the imperial doctor. Nangong Ao snatched Cao Yan from Nangong Ye's arms, "Yan'er!"

Nangong Ao shouted, reaching out to her nasal cavity to detect her breath. There was no breath at all. He couldn't believe it and said, "Queen Mother, Yan'er! Yan'er, she's gone!"

When the queen heard this, she felt a thunderous thunder sound above her head. She was so frightened that her body became weak and she fell down.

"Queen!" Eunuch Tang stretched out his hand to support her.

Nangong Ye squatted on the ground, still holding Cao Yan with his hands. His eyes were empty and desolate. Nangong Ye, who was despairing of all hope, stared at Nangong Ao fiercely.

"Yan'er!" he roared, pushing Nangong Ao away and holding Cao Yan in his arms.

Eunuch Tang looked at the scene in front of him, his eyes widened. He really didn't know what to say about the current situation. The prince and court officials were coming, and the two brothers were still fighting for a woman.

The Queen stood still, and Eunuch Tang stepped forward, "Third Prince, would you like me to see the condition of the Crown Princess?"

He stretched out his hand to feel Cao Yan's breath, but Nangong Ye did not stop him. As soon as Eunuch Tang stretched out his hand, his expression darkened, he turned around and shouted, "Empress, the Crown Princess has gone to the west, mourn her!"

"Can't we mourn?" the queen, who was so frightened just now, said in a deep voice.

Nangong Ao and Eunuch Tang were both in disbelief when they heard that the queen said no mourning was allowed.

The Queen said, "Ao, hide the Crown Princess. If there is a funeral now, the Northern Tang Dynasty will be in chaos.

When the emperor died, the other princes did not dare to say anything, but the fourth prince would definitely stir up trouble.

If General Cao Hu hears that the Crown Princess is gone, if he becomes too sad and his fighting power weakens, who will help you to eliminate these rebellious officials and traitors, and who will help you to calm down the four directions?"

After hearing this, Nangong Ao felt it made sense. Nangong Ye, who was holding Cao Yan and was heartbroken, felt that the queen and Nangong Ao were crazy. For the sake of power and their own selfish interests, they did not even mourn their Yan'er.

"Yes! Queen Mother!" Nangong Ao responded.

Nangong Ye, who was holding Cao Yan, shouted like a crazy beast, "You are not allowed to touch Yan'er!"

"Ye!"

"Ye!"

Nangong Ao and the Queen shouted in unison.

"Mother, you are so cruel. For the sake of the throne, you actually want to keep the news of Yan'er's death secret. In order to stabilize General Cao, you actually want to hide the news of his daughter's death..." Nangong Ye cried blood.
