Chapter 338: What if we lose?
The retired emperor, who was originally the emperor, did not want to pass the throne to the former saint, but seven years later, the Northern Rong invaded.
He hastily passed the throne to the former saint.
Zong Zheng Ruijin, who was sent to a remote place, did not react immediately when he heard that the Northern Rong were heading south and the former Queen of the Saint Xie family was overturning the verdict on the Qilin Army.
Wang Yongshou's father, Wang Huanqi, was beheaded after the incident, but he was not implicated, so Zong Zheng Ruijin continued to support the Wang family.
In fact, Wang Yongshou's confession only showed that the situation was hopeless.
He was politically astute and naturally noticed that Prince Jingyuan was unusual.
He is not a man who has many wives and concubines and lives a life of drunkenness and dreams all day long.
His son's rise to power was a heavy blow that broke through his defenses.
Because he knew that even if he didn't confess, he would still be killed.
Zong Zheng Ruijin was kept in the dark, but he no longer believed him...
If not, he wouldn't have spoken out so easily.
As for the evidence that the retired emperor delayed the reinforcements, no evidence has been preserved at all.
It's a pity that Zong Zheng Ruijin won't believe him...
Even several powerful generals of Beirong were on the wanted list, which showed that Zong Zhengruijin was doomed and was under the control of others.
In fact, Wang Yongshou began to hesitate after Zong Zheng Ruijin imprisoned his biological mother.
He was well aware of Zong Zheng Ruijin's viciousness and suspicion.
If he could cruelly abandon even his own biological mother and father, how could he protect him?
Even if the thief didn't deliver the imperial edict that he had hidden for many years, Zong Zheng Ruijin would not have spared him.
Wang Yongshou, who had been with him for a long time, understood very well what Zong Zheng Ruijin was planning at the moment.
In his heart, it is not important that the people live and work in peace and contentment, and it is not important that all nations come to pay tribute.
What is important is that the supreme authority is always firmly held in his hands.
He threatened his throne, so he would never sit idly by and wait for King Xuanming to pull him down.
But no matter who wins in the end, there will be no place for him.
In today's Nanling, even Baishang Kingdom is affected by the trend. How can he remain immune?
In fact, as early as when Concubine Liu started chattering like a mad woman about the conspiracy between his father and her, Wang Yongshou knew that he could not escape.
He has done all kinds of bad things, and now it is just the cycle of karma.
He knew that he could not escape death, but he wanted his daughter to survive.
So after Prince Jingyuan gave his assurance, found Ji Yanli, and promised not to implicate his daughter, he figured it out.
Whether it is King Xuanming, Queen Xuanming, or Ji Yanli who is lurking beside him, the prince who hides his face.
He couldn't escape from all of this.
Now it is just a belated retribution.
Rather than being silenced by Zong Zheng Ruijin for no apparent reason and watching him continue on this bloodbath that leads to the underworld, it is better to save my daughter's life.
After hearing Zong Zheng Ruijin and Qin Qi's "secret discussion" about secretly sending the Qilin Army's city defense map to the Beirong Iron Cavalry, he understood everything.
It turned out that all of this had been betrayed by the weapon they relied on and believed in, the communication network that the Beirong coveted and feared.
He knew that Zong Zheng Ruijin could not escape either.
…
After learning the whole truth, Xie Xuan strangely did not show the anger and hatred that Su Shengsheng had expected.
Just like now, I just lay on her lap, quietly listening to the happy heartbeat of the fetus in her belly.
Su Shengsheng didn't know what he was thinking at the moment, but she could feel that the dark cloud lingering over Nanling's head not only did not dissipate, but became even thicker.
Even if Wang Yongshou deserved to die, skinning him alive would be too easy for him.
It was his slander that caused Nanling to fall apart and made countless people suffer the pain of their country being destroyed and their families being ruined.
But the instigator was Zong Zheng Ruijin, who coveted the throne.
Now that he has taken the throne, how could he surrender?
Moreover, by monitoring his communications, we could hear his plans.
Another conspiracy to repeat the same thing is brewing at this moment.
Beirong will not be able to hold back until Prince Wenrui ascends the throne.
Today, Nanling’s treasury is full and its diplomatic relations are open.
Beirong has obtained millions of gold ingots, and now Zong Zheng Ruijin is killing someone with a borrowed knife. How can he not be tempted?
Although Wang Yongshou only kept an imperial edict from the past, it proved that Zong Zheng Ruijin stopped his troops after receiving the edict.
But the generals who knew about this were all Zong Zheng Ruijin's confidants.
Not to mention being able to testify about this matter, they themselves cannot escape the blame.
Even with Wang Yongshou's testimony, it was nothing more than Xie Xuan's premeditated plot to overthrow the imperial power...
Because those generals will not come forward to confirm Zong Zheng Ruijin's evil deeds.
They kept their mouths shut and even when communicating with Zong Zheng Ruijin, they did not mention what happened that year.
After all, this matter involves a lot of consequences. If they don't keep their mouth shut, Zong Zheng Ruijin will be the first one not to let them go.
What's more, Zong Zheng Ruijin has already developed a demonic obstacle.
Perhaps it was the promotion of international law that caused him to lose control, or perhaps it was the multinational alliance that made him unpopular as an emperor, which made him dissatisfied.
They actually colluded with foreign enemies and wanted to use the Beirong to eliminate the hidden danger of the Qilin Army.
Although Beirong still has no communication network, everything he and Qin Qi discussed secretly about this matter was recorded.
But even if they had this evidence, if they wanted to bring him down, they would have to fight against several of his trusted generals.
Besides...Xie Xuan doesn't just want to be kicked down and be done with it...
Those traitors are now living at ease.
The injustice of the Qilin Army was allowed to remain in obscurity, and no one came forward to expose it.
Xie Xuan will not let them go...
“Shengsheng…”
"Um?"
Su Shengsheng came back to her senses and asked, "Why aren't you talking again?" She brushed away the messy hair from his eyebrows.
Xie Xuan stared at her from below, "I'll take you back to Southern Xinjiang..."
Southern Xinjiang.
Su Shengsheng took a deep breath and forced a smile, "Okay."
A hint of hesitation flashed across the dark cloud-covered phoenix eyes, "Aren't you going to ask why I'm sending you away?"
Su Shengsheng placed her hand on his cold face and said, "Soldiers are never supposed to protect the king, but the people."
Xie Xuan's eyes suddenly became disturbed. "So you don't blame me?"
She placed his trembling hand on her bulging belly and said, "The child and I will be waiting for you."
Nanling will once again face an inevitable bloody storm, but this time it will be a battle for hearts and minds.
Every person's choice, every soldier's choice, is unpredictable.
She and the child would not hold him back, nor would they stop him.
The emperor's supreme imperial power should not be his umbrella of protection.
"Do what you should do and don't worry too much."
Xie Xuan's eyes flickered in an instant, and some surging emotions completely sank to the bottom under the negative pressure.
And what is born is endless power.
He buried his head in her arms, "What if I lose?"
Xie Xuan never thought that there were times when he was afraid of death.
He was afraid that he would never see her again, afraid that he would not be able to see their child being born, and even more afraid that he would not be able to accompany the child to grow up.
"How could I possibly lose? Since ancient times, good has never prevailed over evil. Besides, is the protective armor I gave you just for show?"
Xie Xuan laughed grimly, "Shengsheng, wait for me."
When he's done with all this, he'll follow her and do whatever she wants...
"good."
