Seeing this, other officials, in order to save their lives, all said: "Your Highness is the one who is destined by heaven!"
The emperor stared at them with wide eyes and shouted angrily, "You, you rabble!"
The official stood up from the ground and said, "Your Majesty, this cannot be entirely blamed on us. We were also forced to do so."
"Prime Minister Su has been arrested. We were once the aides of Prince Qing, so some of the things we did are also related to us. Do we have to sit and wait for you to find out everything and then bring us to justice?"
"Even if you can forgive us, when His Royal Highness Prince Jin returns to the capital, there will be no room for us in the future. Instead of that, it's better for us to follow His Royal Highness Prince Qing."
"At least we still have a chance."
The emperor said coldly, "How dare you, you traitors, betray me? I should have killed you long ago!"
The official said, "Your Majesty, why don't you issue an imperial decree to abdicate the throne to the prince? I can persuade the prince to spare your life."
"You want me to abdicate the throne to him? Is he worthy of it? How can he be worthy of this position?" the emperor scolded.
Prince Qing, sitting on the dragon throne, had a gloomy expression on his face. "Why waste your time talking to him?"
When did the emperor ever recognize him?
He had long lost his expectations.
The emperor only has eyes for Prince Jin!
Wait, wait until he sits on this position, he will make his father see how his favorite son dies!
"It doesn't matter whether I get the imperial edict or not, I have already decided on this position."
Prince Qing looked at Xiao Dinghan and said, "Prince Xiao, as long as you submit to me now, I can forgive your disrespect now. When I ascend the throne, I will still let you be a powerful minister, second only to the emperor, as you are now."
With the support of King Xiao, it would be easier for him to ascend the throne.
Xiao Dinghan said disdainfully: "You still want to be the emperor, can you govern the country and maintain peace? Can you handle state affairs?"
"You're not qualified at all."
"You!" Prince Qing stared at Xiao Dinghan angrily, gripping the handrails tightly with both hands.
"Since King Xiao is so unconvinced, don't blame me for being rude. I want to see how King Xiao can kill tens of thousands of people with his own strength!"
Prince Qing waved his hand at the door, and several Turkic men dressed in generals' clothes came in. They looked strong and powerful.
"Your Highness, this time our king has asked you to bring King Xiao's head to him." Several Turkic generals saluted King Qing and glanced at Xiao Dinghan not far away.
The hatred between Turkic and Xiao Dinghan started decades ago.
Xiao Dinghan's existence is a huge threat to the Turks.
As long as Xiao Dinghan is still here, the Turks will not be able to enter the Central Plains.
Prince Qing said, "As long as you can capture Xiao Dinghan, I will do whatever you want with him."
Several Turkic generals walked towards Xiao Dinghan, staring at him intently.
"I never thought that General Xiao, who was once so powerful on the battlefield, would be so old and frail now, isolated and helpless!"
Their eyes were filled with countless hatred. "But people will eventually grow old. General Xiao, do you still remember those Turks you killed? Today we are here to avenge those Turkic soldiers who died at your hands."
Xiao Ding snorted coldly: "Bah! If you hadn't attacked Gan Country and slaughtered its people, why would Gan Country attack the enemy?"
"You sound so wronged, but you're slaughtering the people of a whole country just for your own selfish desires!"
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? If you want to kill me, do it quickly."
"Xiao Dinghan, today is the day you die." Several Turkic generals had grim expressions on their faces. They drew out the double-edged swords in their hands and attacked Xiao Dinghan.
Xiao Dinghan took out a submachine gun from the box on the ground, quickly loaded it, pulled the trigger, and fired a burst of shots at the approaching Turks, "Bang, bang, bang!"
The Turks on the opposite side didn't even react. They kept holding their knives, looking as if they were about to attack, and didn't move.
The pain came so suddenly that they suddenly covered their pierced chests that were bleeding, and their pierced heads that were bleeding.
They raised their hands and touched it, staring at the bright red blood.
With a few "bangs", a group of people around fell to the ground and became motionless on the spot.
"What...what on earth is this!" Everyone looked at the gun in Xiao Dinghan's hand and spoke in horror.
"Didn't I tell you all just now? Weapons! These are weapons. Have you, a bunch of civil servants, become stupid from reading so much?" Xiao Dinghan said impatiently as he carried the assault rifle on his shoulder.
The emperor behind him stared intently at the gun in his hand. This gun was more convenient to use than his own.
It looks very useful at first glance!
"Is there really such a powerful weapon in the world? People haven't even seen the real thing yet, but the thing has already penetrated into the person's body." Everyone was shocked.
"Oh, there are so many things you don't know, this is just the beginning!"
"If you want to die, come here." Xiao Dinghan said arrogantly.
"What are you standing there for? Go and serve this king!"
Prince Qing said to the Turkish soldiers behind him, "I simply don't believe that one of his weapons can defeat my army."
The soldiers looked at him hesitantly and shook their heads, "Your Majesty, this spear is too powerful. Our generals died without even making a move."
"You are a bunch of useless people, you are afraid of death!" Prince Qing was so angry that he slammed the table and cursed.
"Hmph! Don't let others go up. If you have the guts, go up yourself." A crisp voice sounded from behind the hall.
Ruanruan took Zhao Chengqian's hand and walked in.
"You are afraid yourself, but you let others go. Does that mean other people's lives are no longer lives?"
The soldiers and officials on the ground all looked at Prince Qing, whose face flushed with anger. "So what? I'm the prince!"
"These are all people assigned to me by the Turkic King. If I don't allow them to go, why should I use them?"
"Oh, so you want them to die for you." Ruanruan said, holding her chin.
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the people around Prince Qing changed.
"If you hadn't come out, I almost forgot. If it weren't for you, little thing, things wouldn't have turned out like this."
"Since I can't capture King Xiao, then I will capture you." King Qing stared at Ruanruan. This child saved King Jin and Xiao Qingmu, otherwise his situation would not have become like this.
The reason why he was defeated and in this situation now was all thanks to this kid!
Upon hearing this, the Turkic soldiers stepped towards Ruanruan with their swords in hand, but before they could take a step forward.
"You dare, Prince Qing, if you dare to let anyone touch my granddaughter, I will kill you first!" Prince Xiao held a gun and pointed it at Prince Qing.
Just when everyone was in a stalemate, footsteps were heard outside.
With a few loud bangs, a group of soldiers wearing armor from the Gan Kingdom rushed in and surrounded the Turkic soldiers.
The soldiers made way and stood in two rows, and Ruan Qichuan walked in.
"Who are you? Where are my men?" King Qing began to panic when he saw the soldiers from the Ganges.
"Your people are long gone." Ruan Qichuan glanced at him and looked at the emperor and King Xiao.
