Chapter 163: Putting down civil strife
But there was no chance to get close.
And outside the imperial study, there were sounds of fighting again.
The door of the imperial study was kicked open, and Zeng Chengze appeared wearing armor and holding a spear.
Standing at the door like a killing god, Wuwei saw the War King coming and fell to the ground.
"It's over, it's over, everything is over"
While everyone was not paying attention, Sun Quan picked up the long sword of the guard beside him and rushed towards the emperor.
As long as he dies, it will be fine.
I have been planning for so long, and it will be successful soon, almost.
"Father, be careful~"
Zeng Chengze exclaimed, but he was quite far away.
It was too late, but I still tried my best to get there.
Bang! Sun Quan saw that his long sword was about to stab the emperor.
But he could not move forward even an inch, and he fell to the ground with his eyes wide open.
Xiao Yingxun was standing next to the emperor, and he was not too worried.
This man gives people a very down-to-earth feeling.
When everyone else looked at the War King or was more or less disturbed by the environment.
The emperor felt that he had always been by his side and was not affected by any major factors.
He won't leave him even a little bit.
As soon as Sun Quan died, those soldiers fled in all directions.
The emperor straightened his clothes and sat on the dragon throne.
There was a sea of blood and corpses beneath the dragon throne, the emperor said in a deep voice.
"Where is General Liu?"
"I will be in ~"
"I order you to raid the Shangshu Mansion and throw all nine clans into the dungeon."
"Awaiting decision"
"I will follow your orders"
General Liu took his men away, and all the soldiers fleeing around the palace were captured.
Servants were already cleaning up the bloodstains and corpses in the imperial study.
The emperor then remembered that he had asked Eunuch Su to go to the Queen's palace to see that Sun Quan was forcing the emperor to abdicate.
"Where is Eunuch Su?"
At this time, several eunuchs carried Eunuch Su, who was beaten and covered in blood, into the imperial study.
“Who did this~”
The young eunuch helped Eunuch Su to kneel down, "Alright, alright, it's already this late."
"Quickly send the imperial physician to come and have a look."
A eunuch ran out to find the imperial physician.
Another young eunuch said, "Your Majesty, it was Lord Sun who sent people to arrest Eunuch Su."
"I want to get the whereabouts of the imperial seal from Eunuch Su."
Looking at the unconscious Eunuch Su, the emperor could not suppress his anger.
The Imperial Guards have also been recalled. The Third Prince took them away to investigate the specific situation on the grounds that someone was plotting a rebellion.
By the time the imperial guards reacted, Sun Quan had already forced the emperor to abdicate.
Just when he didn't know what to do, he met the War King who came with the Flame Army.
Then he followed the War King and rushed in to kill his way in.
"Come here, drag all the traitors away and chop them off."
"Leave no one behind"
"Wait a minute"
The emperor looked at the source of the voice, and it was Xiao Yingxun.
Xiao Yingxun clasped his fists and bowed,
"Your Majesty, I want to ask for a way out for those soldiers"
"If the emperor agrees, I will train these soldiers."
"If the training is successful, then use it for your own benefit"
"If training fails, it's not too late to deal with it"
The emperor was waiting for Xiao Yingxun to say this, and he understood it from his words.
In their country, people don't kill people by their own will.
"Oh? General Xiao is sure you want to lead the troops?"
"You only see a minority, there are many more people than this"
“But there are two hundred thousand.”
"As long as Your Majesty is confident that you can leave it to me, I will give you a different army."
"Haha~ Don't worry~ Don't worry"
"Xiao Yingxun receives the order"
Xiao Yingxun took two steps forward and was now waiting in the middle with a neither humble nor arrogant attitude.
"Xiao Yingxun has saved me, so I won't have to kneel down to you from now on."
"Appointed as General Longteng and granted a general's residence"
"General Long Teng's latest mission is to train these private soldiers."
There was no one else in the imperial study at the moment, as those officials were trapped in their homes.
Xiao Yingxun accepted the order easily, and said like the ancients, "I accept the order, thank you for your grace."
Well, don’t ask. If you’re asking, I learned it from TV.
Xiao Shuyao appeared in front of everyone, pulling Zeng Qingxue.
Zeng Chengze has been looking for Xiao Shuyao, and he is a little anxious because he hasn't found her.
However, there are still many things to deal with here. Seeing Xiao Shuyao safe and sound, he felt relieved.
I didn't expect that she would go directly to his sister, putting her brother in the most dangerous position.
"Father~ woo~"
Zeng Qingxue ran towards the emperor crying, and the emperor held her in his arms with heartache.
"No more fear, no more fear"
"It's so dark, Father. I have been hidden in a very small and dark place."
“I can hear people everywhere outside”
"Xue'er didn't dare to go out, nor did she dare to move around"
"Father, Xue'er is so scared"
After all, Zeng Qingxue was only ten years old and relatively young, but Concubine Xian had issued a death order to kill her.
Look, Concubine Xian rushed into the imperial study, crying.
"Your Majesty, you cannot do this to my mother's family. Your Majesty, please have mercy on me."
"You came at the right time. The Sun family is plotting a rebellion. All nine clans will be killed."
"Your Majesty, please spare the Sun family's life because I gave birth to a child for you."
"Emperor~"
"Are you sure, Concubine Xian, that the Third Prince is my child?"
Now that we are all family, we don’t have to worry about any royal secrets being leaked.
"Your Majesty, what are you saying? I don't understand."
"Xian Fei, do you think no one knows about the bad things you did?"
"Your father told me before he died that the third prince is not a child of the royal family at all."
"My virtuous concubine, you are really brave. You dare to do this right under my nose."
"Come here, Concubine Xian has behaved inappropriately and is banished to the cold palace."
"No, no, I can't be banished to the cold palace"
"Your Majesty, the Third Prince is your child, Your Majesty~"
Xiao Shuyao couldn't help but smack her lips. The women in the harem all had such a miserable end.
Outside the imperial study, Concubine De came in with a spear.
"Your Majesty, how is the battle going?"
The emperor was still very polite to Concubine De, "Concubine De, why are you here?"
"Where's Yi'er?"
"I hid Yi'er. Something happened to the emperor. I came to see if I can help."
"It's okay, it's all resolved."
"You must take good care of Yi'er"
Concubine De put away her spear and said in a heroic manner,
"I will take good care of Yi'er, Your Majesty, rest assured."
Xiao Shuyao was puzzled. With such a big incident happening in the palace, why was the Second Prince not there?
Moreover, he had never seen the second prince.
But he didn't ask any more questions. The imperial study had already been cleaned and incense was lit.
"General Xiao, I really want to thank you for your protection this time."
"General Xiao?"
Xiao Shuyao looked at her second brother in confusion.
Xiao Yingxun rubbed Xiao Shuyao's head and said, "The emperor has appointed me as a general."
"I will train these private soldiers."
"Really, second brother! The soldiers you trained will definitely be fine."
Xiao Shuyao said to the emperor cheerfully,
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward"
"You're welcome. When will you return my queen to me?"
"Ah~ I almost forgot, hehe, I'll go to the back."
"Haha, what a clever girl."
