Soldiers from Gyeonggi Province were scattered throughout Shangzhou City, and there were almost no civilians left in the city.
For five whole days, the entire Shangzhou city was a river of blood. The Qin family was doomed, and the soldiers of Gyeonggi Province had no choice but to flee everywhere. Qin Zhen had also escaped without a trace.
In Shengjing City, Uncle Qin was shocked when he saw his fifth son who was blind in one eye and said, "Your eye? Zhen'er, your eye..."
Qin Zhen gnashed his teeth and said, "Dad, it's Lu Ze. Lu Ze is still alive. He is not dead! He shot me in the eye. I will never forgive him."
Uncle Qin asked: "Lu Ze is still alive?"
Uncle Qin even went to the East Palace.
In the East Palace, Zhao Chong was inhaling the opium incense in the incense burner. When he saw Uncle Qin coming, he stood up and said, "Uncle."
Uncle Qin said to Zhao Chong: "Lu Ze is still alive, he is not dead, he is still alive, the Qi family army has arrived in Shangzhou City!"
Zhao Chong took a deep breath of opium and laughed, "Uncle, you have calculated everything, but you underestimated the military power of the court. You are not worthy of being an enemy of the Qi family. Do you regret stopping me from marrying Qi Yuning?"
Zhao Chong laughed coldly, "You won't regret it! Because you want to be the emperor yourself, even if I am your grandson, you won't let me live long? Right?
What a pity! Even if you have the final say in the court, what is the use? Now that the Qi family army is at the gates of the city, everything you have done has become a wedding dress for the Qi family!"
Uncle Qin glared at Zhao Chong and said, "Zhao Chong, what are you talking about? It's not like we don't have a chance now. As long as you kill the old emperor and ascend the throne, the Qi family and Lu Ze will have to bow down to you. It's not like our Qin family doesn't have a chance."
Zhao Chong smoked opium and said with a drunken look: "Yes, I ascended the throne and caused chaos in the court. Later, your Qin family seized my throne. I was just making wedding clothes for your Qin family."
Zhao Chong took a deep breath of opium and said, "I am not that stupid!"
Uncle Qin looked at Zhao Chong coldly and said, "Once the Qi family army enters Shengjing City, you will not survive!"
Zhao Chong said: "No matter what choice I make, I can't survive, right?"
Zhao Chong looked at the curling white smoke coming out of the opium incense block and said, "This opium is a good thing!"
"Report! Qi's army has entered the gate of Shengjing City!"
Zhao Chong looked at the moon outside which was getting rounder and rounder, "It's Mid-Autumn Festival...it's time for family reunion!"
Uncle Qin couldn't stand it any longer after hearing this, and he kept saying, "I have worked hard all my life to plan this, and I absolutely cannot let it go to waste. If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have allowed the Qi brothers and sisters to live!"
When Zhao Chong saw Uncle Qin's confused look, he knew that he had been possessed by the opium illusion, and he laughed.
After Uncle Qin left, Song Heqing came out and said, "Your Highness, let's run away quickly. The Qi family army has come in!"
Zhao Chong said: "Escape? Where to escape to? Where in the world can we escape to?"
Song Heqing held Zhao Chong's hand and said, "It's fine to live in seclusion in the mountains, Your Highness. Staying alive is the most important thing."
Zhao Chong refused to leave, "He Qing, you can't leave. We can't escape."
It was late at night when the Qi family army entered Shengjing City.
The army went straight to the palace.
The Mid-Autumn moon is extremely round, unlike the previous years when it was as bright as day. This year, the Shengjing city is very depressed.
Qi Yu'an ordered Zhong Ding to send troops to surround the Qin family, and he led his troops into the palace.
Qi Yuning and Lu Ze followed Qi Yu'an. The Qin family soldiers in the palace were already at the end of their strength. The whole palace was ablaze with flames. Some fled and some left.
In the Tai Chi Palace.
Seeing Emperor Shiyuan sniffing the sweet grass in front of him, Queen Qin said, "Your Majesty, let's run away quickly. The Qi family rebels are entering the palace."
Emperor Shi Yuan said: "I believe in Brother Yang's grandson. Even if he wants to seize the throne, he will not kill me. Except for the King of Shu, I have never let down the Qi family!"
Emperor Shi Yuan looked at the full moon outside and said, "Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, right? The Mid-Autumn Festival should be a day for family reunion."
Queen Qin said beside Emperor Shiyuan: "Your Majesty..."
In the messy palace, the maids and eunuchs ignored any preparations and just grabbed things and left.
Concubine Wu came to the Taiji Hall holding two large swords and said, "Your Majesty, although I haven't used a sword for a long time, I can still protect you before you leave for Liaozhou. With the emperor here, we will definitely be able to make a comeback!"
When Queen Qin saw Concubine Wu coming, she said to Emperor Shi Yuan: "Sister Wu is right, Your Majesty, let's go!"
The fire grew brighter and the sound of horse hooves grew louder.
With a creaky sound, the door of the Taiji Hall opened, and Uncle Qin, wearing a dragon robe, entered the Taiji Hall. The lights were on inside, and Concubine Wu was holding two knives. The remaining loyal maids and eunuchs inside all stopped Uncle Qin.
When Emperor Shiyuan saw Uncle Qin wearing a dragon robe, he said sternly, "How dare you!"
Queen Qin looked at Uncle Qin and said, "Brother, how can you wear a dragon robe?"
Qin Guojiu held the sword in his hand and said, "I have spent my whole life trying to become the emperor. I will not fail at the last moment. You must write the edict of succession and transfer the throne to me. Otherwise, I will kill you!"
Emperor Shi Yuan frowned and looked at Uncle Qin and said, "Uncle Qin, I have been very kind to you in my life!"
"Not bad? At the beginning, I advised you that Qi Yang would definitely be a hidden danger, but you didn't listen to me and even made Qi Yang a king of a different surname. Now that the Qi family army is approaching, you know what it means to raise a tiger and bring disaster upon yourself, right?"
Emperor Shi Yuan said: "The one I regret the most is you! I have been very generous to your Qin family for the sake of the Queen!"
Queen Qin looked at Uncle Qin and said, "Brother, what are you doing? Do you know that if you do this, you will be executed along with your entire clan? You should also think about Chong'er!"
"Chong'er, is he the bastard born to that Yu family maid?"
Queen Qin looked at Uncle Qin in extreme shock.
Emperor Shi Yuan said angrily: "Is what Ze'er said true? Is Zhao Chong really Qin Han's son?"
Uncle Qin laughed wildly and said, "Yes, it's a pity that you treated him as your own son and spoiled him for so many years. It's just that little bastard Lu Ze, I don't know how he knew the truth. Oh, by the way, your good granddaughter Zhao Shan also knows it!
Do you know how good your granddaughter Zhao Shan tastes? ! "
When Queen Qin heard this, she was so angry that she trembled, "You beast, Shan'er, did you kill Shan'er?"
Uncle Qin said, "So what if I killed her? Who let her overhear the prince's life story? I didn't want her to die, she was just too frivolous!"
Concubine Wu was so angry that she took two knives and was about to attack Uncle Qin, "You beast!"
Uncle Qin kicked Concubine Wu away and said, "As for Beimo, do you really think that only the King of Shu is colluding with them? The King of Shu doesn't even know about it. The Beimo Royal Court has already signed a contract with us. It's Qi Yang who ruined my plans!
Originally, the King of Shu was colluding with Beimo at that time. As long as the King of Shu dared to take the opportunity to ascend the throne, Beimo would give me all the evidence of the collusion between the King of Shu and Beimo. I would be able to pull the King of Shu off the throne by joining forces with Beimo. But all was ruined by Qi Yang. Fortunately, he is dead!
If I had known earlier, I should have not even spared Qi Yuning and Qi Yu'an. Qi Yang's seed would have ruined my plans!"
Queen Qin asked: "Chong'er is not my child, where is my child? Where is my child?"
Uncle Qin laughed and said, "She died a long time ago. Mid-Autumn Festival is a day for family reunion. I will kill you now. You go down to accompany her!"
Boom!
There was a loud bang.
Qi Yu'an, Lu Ze and Qi Yuning rushed into the Taiji Hall and saw Uncle Qin holding a sword. Lu Ze and Qi Yu'an rushed forward to grab Uncle Qin's sword and pinned Uncle Qin, who was wearing a dragon robe, to the ground.
Uncle Qin said unwillingly: "I am the emperor, I am the master of this world!"
Qi Yuning looked at Uncle Qin's crazy appearance, and even stepped forward to extinguish the burning opium incense in the incense burner, and knelt in front of His Majesty and said: "Yuning greets His Majesty, the Queen, and Concubine Wu."
“Ze’er!” When Queen Qin saw Lu Ze coming in, she let go of Emperor Shi Yuan and walked up to Lu Ze. “Are you really Ze’er? Ze’er, you’re not dead?”
Emperor Shi Yuan also trembled as he looked at Lu Ze in front of him and said, "Ze'er!"
Lu Ze kowtowed and said, "I am an unfilial grandson. I have made my grandparents worry about me."
Qi Yu'an knelt down respectfully: "Your Majesty, we are too late to save you!" (End of this chapter)
