Bab 872: Chapter 493: The Brave Child

"Because we have never seen them die with our own eyes, we don't believe they would really give up their prolonged lives for the sake of inheriting the throne."

Dongguo Cilian began to explain.

"If the death of the first Martial Emperor was due to his age issue, his body becoming too aged to suppress. Then there's a big problem with the death of the second Martial Emperor, because he still had at least thirty years of life left.

The second Martial Emperor had a brother, only one year his junior, who almost received the first Martial Emperor's blessing at the same time, obtaining the power of Qi. But it wasn't until thirty years after the second Martial Emperor passed on the throne to the third Martial Emperor and a state funeral was held, that his brother was killed by the third Martial Emperor on suspicion of plotting a rebellion.
