He Huaiyuan realized later that he had been used by Mr. Qi.
Unfortunately, the medicine was very strange. They consulted many famous doctors but none of them could completely cure the disease. They could only temporarily suppress the frequency of attacks.
He Huaiyuan was furious and ordered people to search for the remaining members of Mr. Qi's party. This led to the discovery of Concubine Zhao Gui and the "little prince" who was born not long ago, as well as many of his most trusted people.
Concubine Zhao Gui cried and offered a few pills of hypochondriasis-delaying medicine, only begging He Huaiyuan to spare their lives. Unexpectedly, the always cruel and ruthless He Huaiyuan actually agreed and had them thrown out of the city.
The two men were never seen again, and it is unknown whether they survived the two natural disasters that followed.
As for Prince Jingnan, ever since Sheng Nanxi deliberately left evidence and exposed all the things that Queen Mother He had done, the image of the goddess in his heart completely collapsed, and he was so shocked that he was sick for several days.
After waking up, he seemed like a different person. He gathered people and went to settle accounts with He Yuerong.
Who knew the plot would take a big turn. Zhu Youguang, the captain of the personal guard beside him, had been secretly in collusion with He Yuerong, and the two of them took advantage of the King of Jingnan's unpreparedness and killed him.
But that woman has always been a person who only cares about the present and not the future. Before she took action, she only wanted to kill King Jingnan, so she used Zhu Youguang to command the elite soldiers under King Jingnan.
But they didn't think about it carefully. The reason why King Jingnan could command thousands of troops was because he was a legitimate member of the royal family.
As for herself and Zhu Youguang, one was the empress dowager who had been announced to have passed away by the court long ago, and the other was a small general with no title at all, so they could not control the situation at all.
Sure enough, they were discovered by the confidants of King Jingnan soon after, and the two used the king's token to dispatch the army. The Jingnan Army was shocked and wanted to kill the adulterous couple immediately to avenge their leader.
The two men managed to escape madly and survived, but they died of hunger and cold in the natural disaster that followed.
In the fourth year of Yuanxi, Emperor Xiao Qian sent troops to capture many areas in Xiling and Nanqi that had long been occupied by the rebels. The army marched straight to the capital of Xiling while besieging Anping County, where He Huai had lived for several years.
When the city was broken, He Huaiyuan and the dying little emperor committed suicide in the raging fire.
The people who rushed in failed to rescue him in time, but found a confession in the little emperor.
He deeply regretted his own stupidity and ignorance, which led to the hardship and decline of people's livelihood.
In the past, the children of the Qin Palace, Liu, Li, Lin and other clans had the ability to govern the country, but because of my jealousy, I let them suffer injustice. Even if I am now committing suicide to atone for my sins, I feel deeply guilty when I think about this...
The whole article was written in gorgeous language and with a frank attitude. Sheng Nanxi did not believe that it could be written by someone as ignorant as the little emperor.
As to whether these two people committed suicide or were murdered by others, it is still unknown.
But she could see that the purpose of the edict was mainly to redress the injustice done to the Sheng family and several close families. Although she didn't care about her own reputation, she secretly remembered Xiao Cheng's kindness.
After Gu Yuancheng captured Anping County, he continued to attack several former territories of the Southern Qi Kingdom.
Those who took advantage of the turmoil in the imperial court to establish themselves as kings had no means of self-protection, and now that they had seen with their own eyes the weapons in Xiao Qian's army that were far beyond their imagination, they had no intention of resisting at all.
They surrendered one after another, asking to be idle dukes under the new monarch.
Ning Wang Xiao Jing'an, who had not only successfully escaped the natural disaster with the help of Sheng Nanxi but also saved many people, had already surrendered to the powerful Xiao Qianguo under the advice of his good friend Sheng Yuhan.
Relying on his familiarity with the terrain and situation in Southern Qi, he also provided a lot of useful intelligence to Xiao Qianjun in the early stage, which naturally made a great contribution.
In the seventh year of Yuanxi, with the return of the last piece of land of Southern Qi, the former Southern Qi and Beichen were formally merged into Xiaoqian State, which became the largest country on the continent.
Frightened by the severe shrinkage in recent years, the two countries of Xiling and Nanzhi sent envoys to congratulate and expressed their "eager" wish to make Xiao Qian their suzerain.
On the 14th day of the 15th month, it was King Xiao Qian’s 13th birthday.
It is said that in order to celebrate this rare day, not only did the imperial palace prepare dozens of cars of fireworks newly purchased from Qingyun Pavilion, but many newly rich businessmen also spent a lot of money to jointly organize several grand fireworks shows.
But today, on such a day of national celebration, the youngest emperor in history, who had topped the list of "ideal type of noble ladies in Beijing" for many years because of his good looks, unexpectedly suffered the most serious setback in his life.
He he he Gu Yuancheng had worked hard to prepare for the confession ceremony for nearly half a year. He was planning to pour out his heart to the girl he had admired for many years under the fireworks on that day.
As a result, I scared the person away halfway through the conversation!
