"I know why the Emperor sent the general."

Sun Miao'er's eyes were sharp. Now she didn't even care about the result; she only wanted to complete her mission.

Protect every citizen in Pingnan City and prevent them from being affected by the war.

Fu Yuchi's eyebrows twitched. The light in the tent was dim, making it difficult to discern his expression. "Oh? Then tell me."

"The emperor usurped the throne, but he was afraid of what future generations would say about him, so he actually wanted to spare Emperor Mingguang's life."

Fu Yuchi turned to the side, his voice becoming more composed, "Well said, you truly are a good disciple of your master."

"Therefore, as long as Emperor Mingguang is willing to issue an imperial edict indicating that he voluntarily abdicated in favor of the Prince of Wei, it would be a cause for universal celebration and joy, and there would be no need for war."

If her master came only for this matter, then she has nothing to say.

Fu Yuchi looked at the little girl standing in front of him; she had really grown up a lot.

She was much more mature and rational than when I first met her.

Yes, if he didn't have some wisdom and courage, how could his little Miao'er have made such a name for herself in Pingnan City?

"Your Majesty does have this intention, but Emperor Mingguang is stubborn and obstinate. He has already been given a chance in the capital, but he has retreated again and again, retreating to a mere small city. I ask you, does Emperor Mingguang truly have any sincerity?"

Sun Miao'er nodded, her gaze fixed straight ahead. "Whether he is sincere or not, General Fu will know once he tries."

"Three days later, I will bring the imperial seal of Emperor Mingguang, so that the emperor's throne will no longer be criticized by the people."

She left the tent, and this time she did not receive any pleas for her to stay.

What exactly is Alisa using to coerce her master? Who is this person who can leave her master helpless?

Back in Pingnan City, we climbed onto the city gate.

Looking out into the distance, she could see white tents nestled on the land of Yingzhou.

At this moment, the city of Pingnan was filled with the cries of women and children.

All the able-bodied men in their family were taken away by the government.

Right now, the only option is to try going to Xi Zheng.

"The Imperial Seal? The Imperial Seal is not with me."

Xi Zheng, coaxed by Dongli Xiaoxiao, was already dizzy and disoriented. He no longer thought about restoring the country and only wanted to enjoy himself with the beauty all day long.

Sun Miao'er frowned. "May I ask Your Majesty, where is the Imperial Seal of the State now?"

"Does Your Majesty truly have the heart to watch your people suffer from the ravages of war, their families torn apart?"

Xi Zheng sighed helplessly, "To be honest, the Imperial Seal is in the hands of the Empress Dowager."

This emperor is utterly spineless; he seems to be nothing more than a mama's boy.

"So, this humble woman asks Your Majesty, when the Fu family was wiped out, countless loyal officials were implicated, and thousands were executed, was it all Your Majesty's decree?"

Sun Miao'er pressed Xi Zheng relentlessly, and Dongli Xiaoxiao's heart clenched with anxiety.

Yes and no.

When talking about the old days, Xi Zheng's expression became unusually serious.

"It was my decree, but it was not my intention."

Therefore, it was the Empress Dowager.

Sun Miao'er had already made up her mind.

“Ge Musu, the Empress Dowager cannot tolerate Ge Musu and has forced me to kill Ge Musu with my own hands.”

"I will never forgive myself in my entire life."

In fact, he always knew that Dongli Xiaoxiao was just a substitute for Ge Musu, and that his Ge Musu had died long ago.

He died from the poison he himself had given him.

Therefore, Xi Zheng has never been able to get over it.

On one side is his beloved mother, and on the other is the woman he loves.

After weighing the options, he still chose his mother, but vented all his resentment on outsiders. He couldn't very well kill his mother.

"Does Your Majesty know what the Empress Dowager is doing now?"

"The Empress Dowager ordered all males in the city who were over ten years old to fight in place of the Emperor and go to the battlefield to kill the enemy."

Xi Zheng froze. "Mother, has she gone mad? How could she do this! No, I must go find Mother!"

He never wanted to be a wise ruler, or even an emperor. He only wanted to grow old with his beloved, but he didn't know why even this small wish was considered a huge mistake in his mother's eyes.

"If the Empress Dowager had listened to the Emperor, that terrible mistake wouldn't have happened so many years ago."

Back then, the Empress Dowager was merely using someone else to do her dirty work. In order to consolidate the power of her maternal family, she eliminated the Fu family and their associates.

Xi Zheng understood from beginning to end that it was his mother who took Ge Musu's life, and it was also the Empress Dowager who was relentlessly pressuring Ge Musu.

"Your Majesty, if you are willing to issue an imperial edict of abdication and hand over the Imperial Seal, the country can be at peace and the people can be safe. It all depends on what Your Majesty intends to do."

Only then did Sun Miao'er reveal her purpose for coming.

Xi Zheng's hand froze in mid-air. "Abdicate... fine, you'll be waiting for me in three days."

She didn't expect Xi Zheng to agree so readily.

Three days later, the army arrived at the city gates.

Sun Miao'er arrived as promised, outside the Duhuan Tower.

However, the gates of Duhuan Tower were tightly closed, and the eunuchs who should have been on duty outside had also disappeared without a trace.

Zhang Shengmin rode up on horseback.

"Your Majesty, I request an audience with the Empress Dowager! The militia is ready, and I am willing to follow Your Majesty in a battle to the death."

After a while, the gate of Duhuan Tower slowly opened.

Xi Zheng came out from inside, his face ashen.

In an extremely weak voice, she said, "Mother, I've taken my own life."

Zhang Shengmin staggered and fell to the ground. "Empress Dowager, how could the Empress Dowager..."

"Miss Sun, I'll give you what you want, just let me go."

"I don't want to be a king or nobleman. For the rest of my life, I just want to live a good life."

The Empress Dowager committed suicide, but what happened to the Feathered Camp?

Where is Luo Yu? Where is Dongli Xiaoxiao?
