General Zhang shouted at the top of his lungs.

Qiu Mobai and the others also felt uncomfortable.

Qiu Mobai told him exactly what he had just seen.

He did not exaggerate or conceal anything, he just stated the facts truthfully.

After hearing this, General Zhang was so angry that his eyes widened and his eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets.

His fists were clenched tightly, his nails dug deep into his palms, blood flowed down his fingers, but he was completely unaware.

He could never have imagined that the current emperor would treat his family like this!

What made him even more angry was the treacherous minister - Chen Zhongyan!

This person had a grudge against him and usually loved to stir up trouble and gossip in front of the emperor.

Now he is even committing such a cruel act against his granddaughter!

And the emperor actually believed the slander and allowed these villains to do whatever they wanted!

General Zhang's heart was filled with deep despair and sorrow.

This is the emperor he is loyal to...

The hatred in his eyes could no longer be suppressed.

That night.

Hua Qingqing, Qiu Mobai, Mo Lao and Zhang Nuannuan were secretly taken out of the palace by General Zhang.

Mr. Mo was worried about Zhang Nuannuan, so he followed General Zhang to Zhang's house and promised to cure Zhang Nuannuan completely before leaving.

General Zhang already knew about this. Mr. Mo was the Miraculous Doctor Mo. He was so grateful that he wanted to kowtow to Mr. Mo.

In the next few days, Qiu Mobai was busy dealing with various affairs. Hua Qingqing occasionally went to the study to take a look and helped them dig up a lot of spies.

Finally, five days before New Year's Eve, Qiu Mobai had dealt with all the affairs in Bianjing City.

He took Qingqing, Jinsuo and Jinling with him, left Bianjing, and traveled day and night to Hanzhong Prefecture.

Just in time to reunite with my family on New Year’s Eve.

Just after the new year, several shocking news quickly spread across the country.

King Xiaoyao actually hid 400,000 soldiers in Runing Prefecture in an attempt to usurp the throne!

And that Princess Xiaoyao was actually Concubine Ru’s aunt—Wei Ling!

Wei Ling also used Concubine Ru to give the emperor a chronic poison, which is why the emperor's health deteriorated and his temperament became violent and bloodthirsty.

These rumors were so detailed that even the exact location of King Xiaoyao's army's hiding place was clearly stated. Everyone could not help but believe them.

King Xiaoyao, who had always been very low-key, instantly became known to the world.

The military forces guarding the city of Bianjing were originally facing northwest to guard against the Prince of Yan.

Now, most of the guards were deployed to face the east, also to guard against King Xiaoyao.

Wei Ling and Ju An realized that something was wrong and wanted to run away.

It turned out to be a step too late.

General Zhang led two hundred men to surround them. After a fierce fight, they finally put the two men in jail.

When King Xiaoyao heard the news, his originally gentle and unruly face collapsed.

Prince Xiaoyao also looked unhappy.

However, there was nothing they could do.

The fifteenth day of the first lunar month has just passed.

The three-way war begins...

But just half a month later, the poison recurred and the emperor fell ill. A day later, he died on his sickbed.

Before he died, he directly ordered that Concubine Ru be buried with him.

His only daughter's whereabouts are unknown.

The imperial city was leaderless in an instant. General Zhang Xiangyun killed the imperial city commander and Chen Zhongyan and opened the north gate.

The Yan prince's army successfully entered the city of Bianjing.

The imperial guards in the city and the defenders outside the city all surrendered.

This also indicates that Zhao Zecheng's era is over.

The era of King Yan has arrived.

The number of Prince Yan's army increased from 600,000 to one million in an instant, thanks to the 400,000 in the Emperor's hands.

When King Xiaoyao and his son saw that things were not going well, they immediately fled back to Fengyang Prefecture, King Xiaoyao's fiefdom, with their remaining army of less than 400,000.

The King of Yan did not rush to pursue, but reorganized the three armies.

Then, Qiu Mobai, Zhang Fengjin, Hua Lingyi, Hua Lingjian, Hou Yingying, Li Zhan, Gao Sheng, Shen Jialin, Jiang Quanda, and Wen Hao, these ten young generals, led their troops to pursue the Xiaoyao King's army.

After more than a dozen fierce battles, at the end of June.

Finally, King Xiaoyao's 400,000-strong army was completely wiped out.

King Xiaoyao died in battle.

The prince of Xiaoyao was shot in the heart and rescued by a mysterious person, and his whereabouts are unknown. All other generals who did not surrender were killed.

After Qiu Mobai and his group returned triumphantly.

In September of the same year, Prince Yan officially ascended the throne and was called Emperor Xincheng in history. He canonized his original wife Rong Zijin as the empress.

Qiu Mobai's identity was also officially announced. He was the only legitimate son of the current emperor, Zhao Zeshen.

Everyone then realized that the young prince of Yan was not dead.

Qiu Mobai naturally became the Crown Prince and moved into the Eastern Palace.

When Emperor Xincheng ascended the throne, the whole country celebrated. He granted amnesty, reduced taxes, and eased labor and rest.

We must also reward meritorious officials according to their contributions.

Hua Changjue remained the Duke of Hua, and was also granted the title of Minister of Personnel.

Jiang Shucheng was granted the title of Marquis of Jiang and also served as the Minister of Revenue.

Xie Mingjue's father, Xie Pengcheng, was conferred the title of Earl and also served as the Minister of Justice.

General Liu served as Minister of Works.

General Hou was appointed Minister of War.

Hua Lingxuan was conferred the title of the Prince of Huaguo, and he also served as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.

Hua Lingyi was given the title of General of Cavalry, and Hua Lingjian was given the title of General of Martial Virtue.

Jiang Quanda was made the crown prince of a marquisate and also served as the vice minister of the Ministry of War.

Wen Hao was appointed as the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice.

Yu Jinzhi was appointed as the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice.

In addition to Hua Changjue, Jiang Shucheng, and Hua Lingyi, even Zhang Fengjin and Hou Yingying were also named fourth-rank generals. They are also the only two female generals in history.
