Chapter 430 The Crown Prince Dies! Qin Yu Dies!
Su Miaoyu actually shot and killed Duan Rongyin with her own hands!
This is tantamount to her not only not wanting to be the Crown Princess, but also not wanting the position of the future Empress of the harem.
She didn't care about the glory of the entire Su family.
She probably knew Duan Rongyin better than anyone else in the world.
That's why I hate him even more.
He could also see with great understanding how Li Qingluo and the others brought him down from his high position.
But what she did was not just stand by and watch.
Instead, he shot him with his own hands.
Even Li Qingluo admired her for her resolute character!
After exchanging a glance with Li Qingluo from afar, Su Miaoyu resolutely dropped the bow.
Then, under the cover of Kill Two, they quickly disappeared and left.
Before Zongzheng Yu'er could escape, Duan Rongyin grabbed her tightly.
With his last ounce of strength, he raised his sword and slashed her neck.
Zongzheng Yu'er covered her neck, trying to open her mouth to shout and speak.
But he couldn't utter another word.
No... she can't just die like this...
She's a time-traveling woman...
She woke up in the inner palace, a place where people were devoured.
She barely managed to survive by relying on the palace dramas she had watched, and she barely managed to make a name for herself by using the wisdom and methods of a modern person.
How could he just die like that?
She was the one who founded the Lotus Sect!
She is the leader of the Lotus Sect...
She was also Princess Qinyu, renowned in both countries and beloved by all the people!
She opened the world's most prestigious gambling den.
She built the most advanced restaurant in the world.
Her business spans the entire Liang and Chu regions...
Her gold and silver treasures were countless!
Although she lost in Daliang.
But she could still marry into the Western Regions... and she could still fight her way back to the Great Chu...
She wanted to trample all those who looked down on her, those who only wanted to exploit her endlessly, and those who only saw her as a pawn in their hearts, under their feet...
But if she... really died...
Could it be that... she can return to... the world that truly belongs to her?
The Crown Prince's men fought desperately to seize him, while Zongzheng Yu'er tumbled down the stairs.
Countless feet ran over her.
No one pulled her out of the corpses until she was completely trampled and mangled.
Her eyes, wide open in death, were stomped on and burst open, becoming mangled and mangled.
"Everyone! Stop!"
"His Majesty has personally arrived here; you will all immediately lay down your weapons—"
The Imperial Guards roared in unison.
However, in the chaotic streets, someone suddenly raised a flag and shouted: "Emperor Yan is a fool! He indulges and favors treacherous ministers and villains!"
"Kill the loyal and virtuous!"
"Harming the innocent!"
"Closing your eyes and ears will only lead to future problems."
"Today we will act on behalf of Heaven and kill this tyrant!"
"Get them!"
In an instant, some of the civilians who had not yet all evacuated from the crowd drew their swords and rushed out.
This time, they charged straight at Emperor Yan.
A dark mass of Imperial Guards pressed in from the end of the street.
Countless flying shadows instantly descended from the rooftops on both sides.
The imperial guards shouted loudly, "Protect the Emperor—"
"All traitors, kill them all immediately without mercy!"
Seeing this, the Lotus Sect members, who had been slaughtered and were now reduced to only a few, huddled together and slowly lowered their swords.
They intend to surrender when they are aware of the times.
Zheng Lingzhou and Zheng Wanxiu stood in front of them, looking unwillingly in the direction of Emperor Yan.
Everything the siblings did was for revenge!
Back then, it was only because my father upheld justice and petitioned the emperor on behalf of Consort Na Yue, wanting to find out the truth behind her sudden death.
More than a hundred members of the Zheng family were branded with the grave crimes of disrespect and treason.
Execution, exile, and all women were forced into prostitution.
Now, the Zheng family bloodline consists only of the two siblings.
And they lived, even joined the Lotus Cult, waiting for this day!
The closest opportunity to Emperor Yan.
They risked their lives, and today they will surely take this tyrant's life!
Thinking of this, the siblings exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with intense hatred.
Just as Zheng Lingzhou impulsively drew his sword and was about to rush out, he was tightly grabbed by Zheng Wanxiu.
Zheng Wanxiu: "Lingzhou, don't be impulsive! We can't ruin His Highness's important plans."
“He promised to clear the name of our Zheng family. If we kill Emperor Yan… then the Zheng family will be truly finished.”
"This tyrannical ruler will surely die."
"But not now!"
"Let's retreat!"
Outside the city at this moment.
The Crown Prince's former subordinates and the remaining 8,000 elite private soldiers were also lured to the city walls by Duan Rongshi.
Upon hearing that the crown prince had been shot by an arrow, the private soldiers went berserk and tried to rush into the city.
However, the Northern Army also killed them one by one without any mercy.
When Emperor Yan saw the chaos in the city, he felt dizzy and his vision blurred.
"Where is Prince Su?!"
"Send him to see me—"
Yang Qinwu stepped forward and reported: "Your Majesty, Prince Su is still fighting the enemy outside the city—he cannot leave for the time being!"
Emperor Yan propped himself up, furious: "What enemy?!"
"He has already led the Northern Army to the gates of my city of Jinling. Does he really think I am unaware of his ambition?!"
"He even dared to try to frame Yin'er for these crimes!"
"Quickly, where is Yin'er? Why hasn't the Crown Prince been brought here yet?!"
"Useless, all of them are useless—"
Emperor Yan refused to believe these facts.
Deep down, she was convinced that all of this was a conspiracy by Duan Rongshi.
Did he plan all this all along?
Otherwise, he should still be staying in Guifu Palace right now!
Instead of leading troops outside the city, he caused Yin'er to be shot by an arrow!
This was all planned long ago.
The one with wolfish ambitions is Duan Rongshi, not Yin'er!
Yang Qinwu: "Your Majesty! They were the Crown Prince's former subordinates, and... private soldiers. They attempted to replace the Northern Army, but His Highness Prince Su saw through the truth and killed those traitors outside the city."
Emperor Yan nearly vomited blood.
"Shut up!"
"Yin'er could not possibly be a traitor."
"My empire belongs to him..."
Even if he were in a hurry, he would never commit treason—
Just then, a martial arts master broke through the encirclement and lunged at Emperor Yan with his sword in hand!
"You dog emperor, prepare to die—"
call out--
The arrow whistled through the wind.
The man was shot right through.
This arrow saved Emperor Yan's life.
The archer was none other than Duan Rongshi, the son whom Emperor Yan was currently gritting his teeth in hatred.
Duan Rongshi sat atop a tall, all-black horse, put away his longbow, and looked coldly at his father, the emperor.
"If Father insists on accusing me of treason, I have nothing to say."
"But if the world were to label Father Emperor as incompetent, how would Father Emperor intend to silence the public's criticism?"
"The Crown Prince's actions today are known to all under heaven."
"Even if Father Emperor doesn't want to accept it, he has no choice but to accept it!"
"Your subject's crimes will surely be judged by the people of the world!"
After saying that, Duan Rongshi raised his hand and waved it lightly.
The entire street was immediately and completely cleared.
In addition to the Imperial Guards, they also surrounded the emperor.
Those traitors, all the guards, former subordinates, and even private soldiers brought by the crown prince, were ultimately executed by having their throats slit.
Blood was already flowing like a river on the streets.
Corpses were everywhere.
Duan Rongshi's men carried the crown prince's body to Emperor Yan.
Unable to accept it, Emperor Yan pounced off the soft couch.
"No--"
"Yin'er! Yin'er—"
"Duan Rongshi, did you kill him—?"
"You killed your brother!!"
"Kill my son!"
Duan Rongshi was completely numb when he saw this scene.
They were both his sons.
But the Emperor's favoritism and selfishness will always be directed only at Duan Rongyin.
Having already seen through everything, Duan Rongshi was not saddened by his father's current outburst and slander.
He didn't even dismount.
He simply bent down slightly, looked down, and gave a cold smile: "Father, how could it be your son? It was clearly you who killed my elder brother."
"Since you love Duan Rongyin so much, why do you still insist on cultivating the path to immortality?"
"If you had handed over your vast empire to him long ago, would he still be in such a hurry?"
"Privately raising elite troops, colluding with cults, persecuting loyal officials, forming cliques for personal gain, and engaging in corruption and embezzlement..."
“Father, if it weren’t for you nurturing his ambitions, yet being so reluctant to give him hope.”
"Would Duan Rongyin do something as stupid as trying to kill all the Beitu Army and then have his own people take their place?"
It's clearly you—
"If you hadn't pushed him to this point, and even five years ago, if you hadn't become suspicious of him under the instigation of others and locked him up in the Nanshan Villa..."
"Father, none of this would have happened today."
Anyone can frame someone and convict them.
Emperor Yan stretched out his arm, wishing he could strangle Duan Rongshi himself.
"You unfilial son—"
"Is this how you speak to your father—"
"I'm going to kill you—"
"Someone come here!"
"Take Prince Su down for me—"
The Imperial Guards remained motionless, their heads half-lowered.
Not a single person obeyed the order and moved.
Emperor Yan looked up with a whoosh.
Look around.
His personal guard.
The Imperial Guards obeyed only the emperor's orders!
Why would they also be wary of Prince Su?
still……
They...actually...
He was already Prince Su's man?
After this terrifying thought popped into his mind, Emperor Yan struggled to get up.
However, during his days of cultivating the path to immortality, he consumed far too many elixirs.
Those pills left him feeling weak all over, even more powerless than before.
He could only point at Prince Su with trembling hands.
"It's...it's you?"
Just then, the Third Prince, Prince Jin, arrived late, accompanied by his guards and soldiers, on horseback: "Father—"
"Your Majesty, I have arrived too late to save you—"
Duan Rongshi shouted sharply, "Take him down!"
The Prince of Jin did try to struggle.
However, the disparity in strength between the two sides was too great, and Duan Rongshi was well aware of his weaknesses. Soon, Duan Rongjue was stopped by Duan Rongshi's men.
Upon seeing this, Emperor Yan embraced the Crown Prince's body in grief and wept bitterly.
"Yin'er—"
"Father, I'm so sorry—"
My son—
Duan Rongshi dismounted from his horse.
He slowly walked up to Emperor Yan.
"Father."
"To whom are you singing this heartfelt song?"
Do you believe it yourself?
"Did you also pretend to love my mother in the same way back then?"
"But why did you insist on killing her with your own hands?"
Emperor Yan froze.
Slowly raise your head.
"You...you..."
His eyes widened in terror, and his whole body trembled.
Suddenly, his eyes snapped open, and he leaned back.
Then Eunuch Wang rushed forward, crying, "Your Majesty—Your Majesty!"
