A prince's rebellion was a major event no matter which dynasty it was in.

Bradley didn't know why King Xin of the original world line didn't mutiny, but now that things have happened, there is obviously no need to dwell on the reasons.

The palace was surrounded, and the emperor's life and death were uncertain. Bradley was anxious but could not do anything. Yuan Feiyan was an idle prince with no real power in the imperial city. Because of this, no matter how much he went too far on personal issues, the emperor never blamed him.

How can he allow others to sleep soundly when the emperor is lying beside him? How could a prince who had power really gain the emperor's trust?

After King Xin sent people to surround Bradley's house, he put him under house arrest and completely cut off his contact with the outside world.

Bradley was anxious, but after discussing with the system, he decided not to act rashly. After all, he had no military power. Even if he ran out, he would not be able to help his brother.

The atmosphere in the imperial city has been extremely tense these past ten days. Almost no one dares to go out. Every day, before dark, a curfew has been imposed.

Seeing that Bradley was frowning all day long, Milo said softly: "My lord, don't worry too much. Your Majesty is the True Dragon Emperor, and nothing will happen easily."

Bradley smiled reluctantly. He knew that the mutiny was very dangerous, and he only hoped that his imperial brother could turn the danger around.

When Milo saw this, he suddenly asked: "Why did the prince come back early when he went to the palace to offer sacrifices?"

When Bradley heard this, he immediately understood the meaning of Milo's words. He said, "You mean..."

Milo nodded: "The emperor must have been prepared."

Only then did Bradley feel relieved.

Milo said: "Your Highness, please drink the medicine. You are still cold and worried, so be careful with your health."

Bradley coughed a few times, brought the medicine over and poured it into his mouth.

This medicine has a soothing effect. Bradley felt a little drowsy after drinking it. Milo didn't talk to Bradley anymore. He lit another soothing incense for Bradley, then extinguished the candle and exited the room.

Bradley slept well this time, but he was woken up by someone.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he was frightened by the scene in front of him. He saw King Xin, who was supposed to be in the palace, sitting in front of him, looking at him with a sneer, while Milo was pinned down by several men in black. On the ground, there was a trace of blood on the corner of his mouth.

"Are you awake?" King Xin is Bradley's brother, but he is a few years younger than the current emperor. When he was the heir, he was another strong contender for the throne.

If it hadn't been for one move missing, I might not have known who the Holy One was today.

"His Royal Highness King Xin." Bradley was about to get up, but suddenly felt that his whole body was sore. He coughed a few times and looked suspicious, "What do you mean?"

"The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. This remains unchanged through the ages." King Xin did not answer, but stared at Bradley coldly. He said, "If I lose, I will die."

Bradley coughed a few more times.

King Xin stood up, walked to Bradley, stretched out his fingers to lift his chin, looked at his face carefully, and then said: "I'm curious, how can he dote on a person who is so cold-hearted and cold-blooded?" You trash."

It has to be said that none of the princes and grandsons of Bradley's generation are bad-looking. Even King Xin, who should be in a state of desolation, is extremely handsome.

Bradley didn't answer. What could he say? He was lucky enough to have a good brother. Are you going to beat me? If he said this, he might really get beaten by King Xin.

"But who can say for sure about things in this world." King Xin murmured to himself, "I lost yesterday, but do you know that I will lose today?"

Bradley felt that something was wrong with King Xin. Could it be that his mutiny failed and he lost his mind? But if the mutiny fails, how can he walk out of the Queen intact?

Before Bradley could think about it, the sharp voice of the eunuch in the palace came from outside. The eunuch said: "Your Highness, Prince Su, please enter the palace immediately!"

Bradley was still confused.

The eunuch obviously knew that King Xin was in the house, so he didn't come in at all. What on earth was going on? Did King Xin succeed or fail?

Just when Bradley was at a loss, he saw the men in black who were pressing Milo forcefully taking off Milo's clothes.

Bradley said hoarsely: "What are you going to do to him! Don't touch him!"

When King Xin heard this, he smiled sarcastically and said, "My lord, you should think about yourself first!"

Bradley thought they were going to do something to Milo, but when they threw Bradley's clothes in front of Milo, Bradley realized what they were thinking.

Bradley: "You------"

Seeing Bradley's pale face, King Xin knew that he understood what he meant. He said coldly: "If he doesn't give me what I want, then I won't give him what he wants."

Milo was forced to change his clothes. King Xin directly drew his sword and pointed it at Bradley. He said to Milo: "If you leak the trap in front of the emperor, you will never see your master again."

Milo's expression was similar to that of Bradley at this time. He gritted his teeth and called the prince.

But King Xin laughed loudly. He just smiled, but his eyes were watery. He said, "I won't give you what you want!"

After the words fell, Milo was taken out.

Bradley felt that King Xin was really crazy. He said, "How could someone as smart as my brother not see that Milo is fake!"

King Xin said coldly: "What if he is going to die?"

Bradley was stunned.

King Xin said: "How can a dying man still be so smart?"

Bradley felt that everything in front of him was ridiculous. He held it in for a long time and said, "You don't like the emperor, do you?"

The sword in King Xin's hand shook, and a blood mark was drawn on Bradley's face. This action was so obvious that it almost gave Bradley the answer.

Bradley said to the system: "I feel like I really want to know some royal secret history."

The system said coldly: "The more you know, the faster you will die."

Bradley said: "Die early and take vacation early."

The system said: "If you die too early, your commission may be deducted."

Bradley thought for a while and felt that this was the truth. He had been struggling in this world for so long, and it seemed that it was really not cost-effective to die now.

Seeing the clear look on Bradley's face, King Xin became a little angry and said, "How could I possibly like him?! You two brothers are really so annoying."

Bradley felt a little aggrieved, thinking to himself, big brother, I didn’t do anything, you even scratched my face, and I haven’t even come to you to talk about it.

King Xin said coldly: "Just wait, there is a good show to watch."

The two sat in the house for an hour. When it was almost dawn, the dull bells rang in the imperial city. The sound of the bell was continuous and seemed to never stop.

From the moment the bell rang, King Xin's face turned pale inch by inch. He silently looked out the window at the dawn rising from the other side of the clouds, his expression cold and desolate.

Then someone knocked on the door outside the house, and King Xin called him in calmly.

The man entered the room and saluted, then looked at Bradley who was still on the bed with no clothes to wear.

"Say it." King Xin didn't take Bradley seriously, so he didn't avoid him.

"The emperor passed away." The man, wearing the clothes of a palace guard, knelt and said, "The throne is passed on to His Highness Prince Su."

"I knew it." King Xin sneered.

The man dared not say a word.

King Xin blinked, smiled again, and said, "What would his expression be like if he knew down there that the one who inherited the throne was not his brother, but a lowly Shadow Guard... What a pity. .....He will never know."

Bradley looked at King Xin's smile, but inexplicably felt that he was crying.

King Xin said again: "Let's go, if it's later, the city will be closed."

With a wave of his hand, the guards standing behind Bradley lifted Bradley, who was still on the bed, into the carriage.

Bradley got on the carriage weakly. When he saw King Xin also getting on, he eagerly asked King Xin: "Where are you taking me?"

King Xin reached out and touched Bradley's face, and sneered: "Of course I will take you to a good place."

Bradley: ... Looking at King Xin's face, he inexplicably remembered the deceptive system in his mind.

In order to prevent Bradley from making a sound, King Xin stuffed a cloth ball into Bradley's mouth.

It stands to reason that the Imperial City was heavily guarded at this time, but King Credible left the city easily, without even a single person checking along the way. Not only that, he also took Bradley out.

In this way, loaded into the carriage, Bradley reluctantly left his hometown... and began his miserable career of moving bricks.

King Xin was in a bad mood along the way, and his face was even worse than Bradley. It could be said that he was almost bloodless. After two days away from the royal city, they finally arrived at their destination.

When Bradley came out of the carriage, he was shocked. He said, "You want to lock me here?"

King Xin said: "Yes."

Bradley was silent for a long time and said, "You don't want to shave my hair, do you?"

King Xin looked at Bradley with a sneer, pointed at the plaque on the door and said, "How can you become a monk if you don't shave your hair?"

Bradley: ... He looked at the words "Prajna Temple" on the plaque and finally shed tears.

Bradley said to the system: "I am still a child, why did he treat me like that?"

The system said: "Maybe he is not a pedophile."

Bradley: ... You have completely lost me, really.
