Chapter 616

(Unedited)

…

A hint of danger stunned Shin Jiao\'s mind as he heard the words of the 8th prince. He didn\'t know how the 8th prince knew about his identity, but he also expects that such a thing might happen. He just didn\'t expect that the 8th prince is able to recognize that he is not the true Qiong Ji.

But of course, he did not panic at this moment as he already has an excuse, and that is his amnesia.

The emperor and many others knew that he is currently suffering from amnesia. So this would be his alibi, but of course, he didn\'t know if this will cause the emperor to hold his freedom. If so, then he could only do things the hard way.

Shin Jiao did not react and just showed a confused expression on his face.

However, the emperor and the minister are looking at the 8th prince with a mix of confusion and curiosity in their eyes.

In fact, they too are curious about this subject matter. But since the young doctor has a very unique and skilled treatment and the contribution they did not ask further because the young doctor himself is suffering from amnesia.

However, those in the court who are in the 8th prince\'s camp, immediately grab unto this situation and immediately steps forward.

"I knew that there is something wrong with that Qiong Ji. He was a wastrel and a silk pant. He is famous for being useless in the capital. How could he have some godly skill after returning from the war? This is impossible… so the only reason is that this guy is an impostor." One of the court officials said.

"Yeah, maybe he is here to assassinate his majesty! Protect the emperor quickly!"

With the words from those court officials, the soldiers who came with the price immediately surrounded Shin Jiao and draw their swords. Some of them even stood in front of the emperor to protect him.

The situation suddenly became chaotic with people facing Shin Jiao and blocking his path.

However, Shin Jiao just showed a confused look on his face. Although he is not an expert in scheming, as a spy he knew how to read the situation and also knew how to adjust himself to adapt to the events happening around him.

With the soldiers acting, he suddenly saw something strange. And that is the soldiers with the 8th prince being too close to the emperor.

Although they are there to protect the emperor, they should not be that close, right? Hence he looks at them with curious eyes while trying to show confusion.

"You… what are you talking about? I… I can\'t understand this?"

"Hahaha… Don\'t play me for a fool… I already know that you are not Qiong Ji. You know why?" the 8th prince asked.

"No… I have no idea."

"Humph! That is because Qiong Ji is my friend. I know him from way back. And you, are not him!" shouted the 8th prince with a sneer on his face.

"Huh? Then… then who am I? It… it was your Silver Moon imperial soldiers that said that I am Qiong Ji. I don\'t even remember my own family. And now you are saying I am not him then who am I?" Shin Jiao said with a tone of helplessness and his expression turning confused.

"Hahaha… you truly knew how to act. I will tell you who you are. You\'re a spy from the Golden Dragon Empire. And you are here to assassinate my father emperor. But I will not let that happen!" shouted the 8th prince.

By this time, the officials have already scattered to the side not wanting to involve themselves in this mess. But some of them are standing around the emperor in front of the soldiers who are protecting the old emperor.

"Tell me, who are you colluding with?" shouted the 8th prince.

But Shin Jiao did not answer him and just looks at the 8th prince in confusion. Plus he is looking at the people around him with a hint of fear in his eyes.

When the people saw this, especially those who belong to the 8th prince\'s faction, they immediately showed disdain on their faces. They heard that this doctor Ji is a cowardly person and that he would run away from the battle. And from the looks of it, they can now guess that the rumors are true.

"Haha… Doctor… Tell me and I will not kill you. Who is the one who commanded you to enter the palace and pretend to be Qiong Ji? If you answer me, I will not kill you." the 8th prince asked.

Shin Jiao did not answer, but a wizen voice asked him once again.

"Young doctor… is what my son saying is true?" the emperor asked with a calm expression.

Shin Jiao shifted his gaze and was a bit surprised that the emperor did not panic even in this situation.

"You… your majesty… If I… If I am a spy. Then… then why would I help you remove the \'Gu\' from your body?" Shin Jiao said with a shaking voice.

The emperor was silent upon hearing this. But then another voice enters the hall.

"That is because you are in cahoots with big brother, the crown prince." A handsome young man enters.

Shin Jiao immediately recognize that figure. It was the 2nd prince, the one from before, at the banquet. And upon hearing his words, everyone suddenly turned towards his direction.

"Father Emperor, I have arrived just in time." The 2nd prince said as a group of palace guards arrived behind him.

Now, the palace\'s main hall is now filled with soldiers making it impossible for anyone to escape the place. With that, the 8th prince and the 2nd prince feel calm and confident in their hearts.

"May I ask your majesty, where is the \'gu\' bug?" asked the 2nd prince with a serious expression on his face.

Upon hearing this question, the emperor immediately thought of something and his gaze towards Shin Jiao became gloomy. Judging from what had happened that night, after the \'gu\' poison bug was removed from the emperor\'s body. His eldest son, the crown prince actually took it. Since he trusted his son, he was confident that the crown prince would find the culprit with it.

But who could have known that the true culprit was his own son? Why can\'t he wait? He is already the crown prince, why did he have to do this?

With those questions in the emperor\'s mind, his eyes glared ferociously at Shin Jiao who is still standing in the middle of this all with a panic-stricken and confused face.

When the emperor saw this his eyes seem to have somewhat been convinced that this young doctor is actually not in cahoots with anyone. In fact, the emperor is thinking that this young doctor is just unlucky to have forgotten his memories and be embroiled in this succession fight against his many sons.

With this, the emperor just shook his head.

"Hao\'er, Li\'er, let\'s just drop this thing. As I see it, this young doctor is just a victim. We should just put him in prison just in case." The emperor said heaving a deep sigh.

However, who would have thought that a soldier would suddenly appear behind the emperor stealthily.

That soldier gave the 2nd prince and the 8th prince a signal and the two immediately acted.

"Father we cannot do that!" the two shouted simultaneously getting everyone\'s reaction.

"We should be careful, we cannot trust anyone. That guy might have some backup with him. We should be careful!" said the 8th prince.

Then suddenly the man raised his hand and suddenly a black dagger was plunged towards the emperor\'s back.

"Father, look out! There are more assassins!" shouted the 8th prince with a worried expression on his face.

However, if one could observe him closely, one can see a slight curb on his lips.

Everyone suddenly turned to the man behind the emperor. And everyone was immediately flabbergasted to see a man holding a black knife and stabbing it to the emperor. And this also made the emperor took a step away from the man unconsciously.

But what surprises the group is that the man seems to have stopped from his action and the emperor only suffered a graze of the tip of the knife on his imperial robe.

With wide eyes, the onlookers were dumbstruck. Plus, they can see that the man seems to be unable to move and is currently looking at the 8th prince with an expression of anger and as if asking for help. The 8th and 2nd prince were also taken aback at this situation. This is clearly not a part of their plan.

However, something suddenly happened.

From the group of guards standing near the emperor, they suddenly shifted their gaze and pointed their blade towards the old man. Then as if with a tacit understanding, those soldiers suddenly plunge their swords towards the surprised ruler.

"No!" shouted someone from the entrance.

The emperor immediately saw the crown prince looking at his father in horror. From that expression of his 1st born son, he knew that it was a trap and that trap is for these people to kill him just in case the first one did not succeed.

Looking at the panic-stricken crown prince, the emperor was actually not afraid. In fact, he felt peaceful in his heart. He knew that he would die someday, but dying because his son is not something he had expected.

He tried to recall if he had been a bad father. But no matter how hard he tried to remember, he could not think of any instance that he neglected his sons or his wives in that matter. He provided them all with a good life.

But how could he have guessed that the reason why he has to die is because of the throne, the throne that has been the hope and pride of every citizen of his empire?

Although he was a bit regretful, the emperor has resigned his fate at this moment. So he tried to close his eyes to wait for his death.

And then he suddenly heard one of the soldiers who are going to stab him said.

"For the glory of the Golden Dragon Empire!"

The soldier said with a wide and sinister grin on his face.. And that grin can also be found with the 2nd prince.
