Chapter 196

This is a direct confrontation with Wu Zhao!

Wu Long did not care at all; he knew what he was facing.

The change of power has been cruel since ancient times.

But since Wu Zhao wants power and also wants a reputation, where in the world are there such good things?

Today, he will make Wu Zhao unable to step down.

He took a deep breath, with shackles on his head and feet, and he was about to speak, ordering the guards to take off his upper garment to give Wu Zhao a hard blow.

But a sudden roar came from behind.

"Your Majesty, I request that Your Majesty have Prince Rong's upper garment stripped off!"

As soon as Gao Yang's voice came out, Wu Long was completely dumbfounded.

What does that mean?

But this was exactly what he wanted!

Wu Zhao said coldly, "Granted!"

Soon, the guards stepped forward and stripped off Prince Rong's upper garment, revealing the hideous scars all over his back.

Among them were knife wounds and arrow wounds, crisscrossing like centipedes.

For a moment, the officials were moved, especially some military generals who couldn't help but want to speak out.

"Prince Rong, are you worthy of these scars on your body?" Gao Yang said with heartache, pointing at Wu Long.

Wu Long's eyes widened instantly.

Cui Xinghe's face twitched wildly, and he instantly understood Gao Yang's sinister intentions.

Before Wu Long could speak, Gao Yang continued to point at Wu Long and speak.

"The Prince Rong in my heart is the Prince Rong who used his life to protect the Da Qian empire!"

"In the battle of Baihegou against the Zhao Kingdom, you, Prince Rong, were at the forefront, killing people until you were a bloody man and your horse was a bloody horse. Do you remember?"

"In the battle of Gaocheng, you carried the banner alone, took four arrows, yet still pressed forward, killing the Chu army until they retreated. After the battle, your armor had almost become a hedgehog, and your life was hanging by a thread. Do you remember?"

Wu Long was stunned.

His eyes widened.

These were all his lines!

Gao Yang continued to say loudly, "In the battle of Western Depot, the late Emperor led the army in person and was almost captured alive. It was you who took the lead, charging in with elite cavalry to save the late Emperor!"

"When the late Emperor passed away, he bestowed upon you the Iron Certificate of Merit and appointed you as the head of the three regents of Da Qian. What kind of trust is this, and what kind of glory is this?"

"But you, you first disregarded the late Emperor's trust, and then disregarded His Majesty's trust. You actually used witchcraft to curse His Majesty. You are unworthy of the scars on your body, and unworthy of this glory!"

"This act truly chills the hearts of the court, chills the heart of His Majesty, and chills the hearts of the people of the world!"

Wu Long was stunned, his eyes full of disbelief.

These were all the lines he was going to use to question Wu Zhao.

Now that you have said them all, what am I supposed to say?

Wu Long was instantly anxious.

"Gao Yang, you are spouting blood!"

Gao Yang's expression did not change, "Prince Rong, since you are a military general, you should stand tall and upright, and dare to act and dare to take responsibility. Now that the evidence is as solid as a mountain, do you still want to continue to quibble?"

"If you admit it, it would appear magnanimous; blindly quibbling will only make the people of the world despise you!"

Wu Long couldn't hold it anymore.

This kid is too vicious!

Now what should he say? Quibbling is wrong, and admitting it is even more wrong, and these scars on his body have actually turned the tables on him.

First he drugged his son, then he designed a "Nine-Turn Intestine" for him, and the means to take him down were even dirtier—not only were there swordsmen and axemen outside, but he also drugged him and used crossbow arrows to sneak attack him without following the martial code!

"Gao Yang, I will fuck your ancestors!"

"You will definitely suffer retribution!"

Wu Long's eyes were spitting fire, wishing he could bite Gao Yang to death.

Wu Zhao sighed and said with great sadness, "The Uncle of the past, who went through fire and water for my Da Qian, is truly a hero. These scars on his body bear witness to the Uncle's glory, but I really didn't expect that the temptation of power would be so great that it would make the Uncle use such dirty means!"

When Wu Zhao said this, her face was full of heartache.

"Although the Uncle has failed me and failed Da Qian, how can I fail the Uncle? Although it is a crime of treason and the Iron Certificate of Merit is of no use, for me to take action against the Uncle, against a former hero of Da Qian, I absolutely cannot do it!"

"Someone, take the Uncle to the celestial prison and treat him well!"

The officials were all moved, and then they shouted.

"His Majesty is wise!"

"His Majesty is truly a benevolent ruler!"

The official historian also wiped the corners of his eyes and wrote furiously.

This imperial affection was truly too moving.

Wu Long was trembling with anger, almost unable to catch his breath. He looked at Gao Yang, and then looked at the very heartbroken Wu Zhao.

In his mind, only a few idioms flashed by.

Birds of a feather!

Snakes and rats in the same nest!

Colluding together!

Adulterous couple!
