The three of them sat down in another room. There was an old imperial doctor who bent down, lowered his eyebrows and looked cautious.

The room was so quiet that only four hearts were beating. After a while, when the imperial doctor was sweating, the prime minister sighed and said, "To be honest, how long can your Majesty last?"

The imperial doctor shivered, bit his teeth, and said nervously: "If Your Majesty was not angry at the burning of the bedroom, he should have been able to hold on for half a year, but now he can only... he can only hold on for another week."

"Yeah, go down."

The Prime Minister waved his hand weakly, and the imperial doctor immediately bowed down as if he had received an amnesty.

The room returned to silence again. After a while, the old prime minister patted his forehead and sighed, "Oh, what should I do? No prince's strength can surpass other princes. This future battle for the throne will definitely cause turmoil in the empire."

The heir to the throne determined by the imperial emperor's will have no effect at all. The next emperor of the empire was the strongest among the many princes.

If the emperor had a strong prince during his lifetime, everything would be easy to say, and if the power was evenly matched, the empire would be in turmoil.

Although everyone doesn't want such a thing to happen. After all, every time a new emperor appears, the empire will consume some of its strength, but the princes and their mother's family welcome such customs very much. These powerful forces cannot be stopped by anyone.

"Yes, according to the investigation of the Xiaguan, the second prince, the third prince and the fourth prince are not far from strength, and the remaining princes are either too young or the mother's family is not strong enough, so they can be ignored. However, they are also likely to form a self-protection alliance under the auspices of the mother's family." The intelligence chief sighed.

Hearing this, the marshal frowned. He hated the matter of the prince reaching his hands to the local military and political affairs, but this was a long-standing habit of the empire and he could not say anything.

"Well, do you know how many provinces and troops they control?" asked the Prime Minister.

"Information shows that the second prince controlled the military power of three provinces and two legions. The third prince controlled the military power of two provinces and three legions."

When the intelligence chief said this, the marshal snorted coldly with a very ugly expression. It is not a pity that the marshal doesn't like to hear about the third prince, because it was the map handed over by the third prince that he was wasting the forces of the three legions in the grassland.

At first, after these three legions entered the grassland, they received good news every day, followed by one every three or four days, and one every ten days. Now there has been no news for a month. I hope they are getting further and further away, rather than getting lost or being destroyed.

The Prime Minister and the Chief of Intelligence knew that the Marshal was snorting something, and did not pay much attention to it. The Chief of Intelligence continued to report: "The Fourth Prince probably controlled four provinces and did not control the intelligence of the legion, but he knew that he controlled the strength of five or six divisions.

"As for the other princes, they control several county towns, one and a half divisions, and brigades, which is simply incomparable to the three princes."

"Well, the three princes who are evenly matched are really troublesome. Yes, how has the lower part been going on since the news came out?" the prime minister asked frowned.

"Ah, our princess, and those officers controlled by the powerful began to show a tendency to warlords under the instigation of their masters. And more importantly, the hostile forces around us, especially the Wilt Free Alliance, have begun to look for agents among the Imperial officers, which may lead to the formation of real warlords in the various departments of the Imperial Departments." The intelligence chief frowned and said.

"Marrior, what do you think about this?" the Prime Minister asked the Marshal who had not spoken out.

The marshal immediately said, "As long as the central province is not in chaos, those officers who are arrogant and delusional to become warlords are all clowns who are vulnerable."

"That's right, but unfortunately, the premise is to ensure that the throne is not fierce and that the result will occur quickly.

"I'm afraid that the princes will participate when the princes compete. Although they have no military power, they are all rich people. As long as they join the prince's faction, they will not play any good role except to increase the competition between princes." The prime minister sighed.

For those princes who were so much money that they could use gold coins to play and play every day, the marshal and the intelligence chief couldn't help but sigh.

They have no way to deal with these princes who are highly qualified and have no real power, but they have many gold coins and are loved by the royal family. They cannot use any means to these princes, otherwise when they make a fuss, more than 80% of the powerful and powerful people in the empire will rush to support them.

While these three important officials of the empire were discussing in the room, the eunuch in the room where the emperor was recuperating, who was serving in front of the emperor's bed, suddenly walked to the door and looked through the crack in the door. Several eunuchs and palace maids standing quietly in the corner in the room seemed to have not seen the strange movements of the supervisor, and directly ignored them.

The eunuch in charge of the bedroom saw that nothing was wrong, so he turned around, walked quickly to the emperor and called softly, but unfortunately the emperor was already dying, and there was no other reaction except that he could move his eyelids a few times.

Seeing this, the eunuch in the bedroom smiled grimly and whispered in the emperor's ear: "Your Majesty, do you know why you are so excited in the past few years?

"It's mainly because the slave added a trace amount of aphrodisiac to your food. Such a small amount will definitely not be tested. Moreover, the slave's medicine is specially formulated. It will not only not cause you discomfort, but also make your health strong. It's just that there is a sequelae, that is, if the medicine accumulates a lot, your body will become weaker and weaker."

The emperor obviously heard the words of the bedroom manager, so he tried hard to turn his head and open his eyes, staring at the bedroom manager fiercely. Seeing the emperor's appearance, the bedroom manager patted his chest and exclaimed in a very artificial manner: "Your Majesty, don't look at the slave like this, you are frightened by your eyes."

After some pretentiousness, the chief manager of the bedroom smiled and continued, "Hehe, tell you a secret information, you probably didn't expect it? The key to the Tibetan Bing Pavilion was made and spread out as it was, and the bedroom was also sent by the slave to set fire to destroy the information you hid under the dragon bed.

"Those materials are not only useless but also dangerous. Burning them is the best way to do it.

Oh, your majesty, your fingers can still move? Do you want to ask the slave why he did this?"

The chief manager of the bedroom asked and answered: "Hehe, actually, the bloodline of the slave is the noble bloodline of the surname Ryerhart, um, that's right, the slave is also a member of the royal family.

"You are shocked? Don't be so fussy. We have too many bloodlines in our surname Ryerhart. If the royal relatives don't mention it, we are generals, literature and history, merchants, craftsmen, gangsters, bandits, robbers, beggars and slaves. Let alone eunuchs. If you knew that there were hundreds of eunuchs with the surname Ryerhart in this palace, would you be scared to death?

"Haha, are you surprised that your secret guards will let their servants do it? Well, let them tell you the answer in person." The bedroom manager said and clapped his hands. As the applause sounded, more than a dozen secret guards covered in black appeared in front of the bed.

One of the leaders' secret guards stepped forward and bowed, whispered: "Sorry, Your Majesty, we became your personal secret guards to fly across the peninsula. We have never been willing to be loyal to you, so don't blame us for sitting there to see you to this point."

The emperor rolled his eyes when the secret guards said that he thought the secret guards, who had been on the last line of defense, had never been loyal to him.

Seeing that the emperor was almost furious, the chief supervisor of the bedroom rushed to the fire: "Your Majesty, do you know why we can do this so easily?

"I believe you know that it is impossible to achieve real success by just the descendants of us losers. This is thanks to your good sons and good ministers. Your good sons even came to us to help them mess up the empire. Hehe, of course, the most important thing is to get you done as soon as possible. If we didn't need to arrange it across the country, a wet towel would make you hang up. How could you have to weaken your body in such trouble?"

Speaking of this, the chief supervisor of the bedroom suddenly remembered something and slapped his head: "Ah, I almost forgot that the concubines you favored were always given to you after applying medicine under them. During these days when you fell ill, they were so itchy that they had put on several cuckolds under the help of the slave. I heard that one of them was worn by a certain prince for you."

The emperor, who was so excited that he couldn't breathe in a breath, swayed his legs and swayed his body with difficulty, rolled his eyes, and died sadly.

The manager smiled and watched the emperor's body soften. He first stumbled on the emperor's breath, then touched the blood vessels on the emperor's neck and the beating of his heart. He was sure that the emperor had hanged and breathed a sigh of relief.

The leader Sewei said to the chief supervisor of the bedroom: "General Manager, the emperor is dead, and we are free, don't forget to promise us."

"Don't worry, I can't forget you. Yes, I won't think about helping us train some secret guards?" The manager said with a smile.

"No, we have been hiding in the dark for most of our lives. We are so tired. Now we don't want to cause trouble, we just want to spend the rest of our lives safely in the sun." The leader Secret Guard shook his head and said, with a gesture, more than ten Secret Guards disappeared like this.

"Hmph, my wish is beautiful, but maybe life in the sun will be more dangerous and difficult than life in the dark." The manager said to himself and suddenly smiled: "Don't worry, I won't go to find you, but I'll spread the news and let others find you."

Speaking of this, the supervisor turned his head and said to the eunuch and palace maid in the room, "Okay, let's start."

After saying that, he took out a wet wipe from his arms and wiped it at the corner of his eyes. The manager's eyes immediately turned red and tears flowed down. The eunuchs and palace maids obviously also had the same equipment, and several palace maids with red eyes even began to choke.

The eunuch in the bedroom put away his hand towel, checked everyone's expressions, and nodded, and suddenly fell to the ground and screamed in wail: "Your Majesty! Why are you going like this!"

When they heard the crying, the first thing they knelt on the ground and shed tears was the guards guarding outside the door. When the crying reached the room where the prime minister and the others discussed the matter, the three of them were shocked, and then they collapsed on the chair softly.

Tears flowed down the Prime Minister's face silently, and he unconsciously said something from his mouth: "Is he going to die? Alas..."

The news of the emperor's death immediately spread throughout the imperial capital from the palace, and then along with the rumbling of cavalry and countless carrier pigeons rising into the sky, the news spread throughout the empire at an extremely fast speed.

When the imperial capital was preparing to die, a rumor suddenly appeared in the imperial capital, saying that a powerful figure was preparing to capture all the princes and the powerful during the martial law of the country, and then directly ascend to the throne to the emperor.

When this rumor was spreading and people were panicked, the imperial capital finally changed drastically.

First, the princes, regardless of the national funeral, forced their guards to break through the city gate and ran out of the imperial capital. Then the powerful and powerful people ran back to their territory with their families. In a moment, the royal relatives in the imperial capital were all over the imperial capital, and only the powerless princes and princesses, as well as the princes without territory were still there.
