“Ah!”
Avis looked at the old king and sat on his butt in shock, looking at the jade bottle in his hand in horror.
The potion was poisoned? Impossible, Jiayuan I had taken one in the morning and nothing had happened at all.
Avis suddenly recalled that he seemed to have touched something dead in the last few days, and remembered the strange sensation in his hand when he had slapped at Yi Xiaochi earlier.
This speculation made Avis blush with fear, Jiayuan I could never be the one to die at her own hands.
Otherwise, even if she were the second princess, she would be charged with the crime of killing her father and the king.
Avis also wanted to rise to the throne, but she had never wanted to get this father, who had doted on her since she was a child, killed.
“Lin Mo, yes, it was all caused by Lin Mo, he was the one who put poison in the pills!”
Avis hurriedly poured out all the elixirs and kept feeling around with both hands before putting them one by one into the bottle.
Rushing over to the sink, he frantically scrubbed his palms with water, Avis was afraid it wasn’t clean and grabbed another hand sanitizer and scrubbed frantically.
It was only when her own hands were already red with pain that she gradually stopped.
Seeing the body of Jiayuan I, a seed called ambition took root in Avis’s heart.
With some trembling, she picked up the holy decree placed in the cupboard, and after writing a line based on Jiayuan I’s handwriting, she fiercely stamped the seal.
It was writing that Second Princess Ai Wei’er was gifted and talented and was the next king of the Wanxiang Kingdom.
Ai Wei’er straightened her facial expression, hid the holy decree under Jiayuan I’s pillow and rushed out of the palace door shouting.
“His Majesty has ascended to heaven!”
At once, the news of the death of the King of the Wanxiang Kingdom flew around, and all the ministers dared not delay in coming to the council chamber once again.
Only to see Second Princess Ai Weier standing at the top of the steps below the throne, where she was waiting for all the ministers.
Seeing that all the ministers had already gathered, Avril said in a sad and angry tone.
“My father went to apologize with sincere intentions, and took Lin Mo but poisoned my father ……, causing my father to return to heaven, what do you say, what should be done about this?”
Ai Weier’s grief inspired the crowd to roar with anger.
“Kill Lin Mo and take revenge for the king!”
“Your Highness Avril, we found a holy decree under His Majesty’s pillow.”
A guard walked in and respectfully presented a scroll of holy orders with both hands.
Avis was taken aback and hurriedly took the decree from the guard’s hands and unfolded it.
The many ministers looked at Avis’ rapidly changing face and somewhat couldn’t help but say.
“Your Highness, Second Princess, what exactly is written in His Majesty’s holy decree of the Merchant League?”
Avis did not reply directly, but handed the decree in her hand to the Minister of Military Affairs “All of you ministers read it for yourselves.”
When the Minister of State saw the contents of the decree, his heart was in shock. It was absolutely impossible for Jiayuan I to pa*s the throne to a woman in this situation.
Then it means that this ascension to in the hands of the second princess is entirely for show, but since the holy decree was taken out for show, Jiayuan I’s death ……
The minister of war subconsciously looked up, but found that Avis was staring at himself, the emotions in his eyes drew out but gave the minister of war the creeps.
Looking at the guards guarding the door, the War Minister suppressed his inner suspicion and handed it to the next person.
Soon the decree was pa*sed to the hands of all the ministers present, and they all understood that, regardless of whether the decree was true or not, only the real one would allow them to walk out today.
“Since His Majesty has pa*sed it on to the Second Princess, he must have recognised her talent, I think His Highness should choose a day to ascend the throne.”
“I second the motion!”
Looking at the many ministers below who were seconding the motion, Avis finally put down a huge stone in his heart and also conveyed the first imperial decree.
“The Sixth Prince is suspected of conspiring with Lin Mo to murder the King, now arrest him immediately!”
