Chapter 514: Clearing the Battlefield
Speaking of it, the Yuefeng royal family has actually been of no meaning to him for a long time.
My father is gone, my mother is gone, and my throne has been taken away by my younger brother. What's the point of being imprisoned in the palace?
But when he heard that the soldiers of the Great Chu State had attacked the imperial city of the Yuefeng State, he still felt a little sad.
After all, Yuefeng Kingdom was just a small country in the past, and it only grew and prospered under the rule of my father.
But after just two short lives, it was gone just like that?
He even began to blame himself, thinking that he had listened to his superiors earlier or done less unnecessary things.
Like the crown prince of the Great Chu State, he restrained himself and returned to propriety, devoting more attention to state affairs.
How could it give Helian Hengxin the opportunity to take advantage of it?
This allowed him to usurp the throne and rewrite the history of Yuefeng Kingdom.
But no matter how much he laughed at Lu Jinyao, the crown prince of the Great Chu State, he actually admired him from the bottom of his heart.
I admire him for being able to live alone in the palace for so long even though his mother was gone.
I also admire his ability to put aside his emotions and devote all his energy to the court.
I also admire him for being able to hold power for more than a month without causing any chaos when the emperor of the Great Chu Kingdom was on a tour southward.
Now he is not only a qualified crown prince, but the Great Chu State has also cultivated a qualified emperor.
An emperor who is better than himself and Helian Hengxin.
When Qiong Hua, Lu Xingwan and Liang Wen arrived at Helian Hengxin's bedroom, Song Qingyan had already arrived there under the leadership of Pei Chuyan.
At this time, he did not open his mouth to ask questions, but just stared in a daze at Helian Hengxin, who looked so miserable at death.
I never thought that such an emperor would die like this.
Seeing his mother whom he hadn't seen for a few days, Lu Xingwan ran towards her happily: "Mom, Mom."
[Mother, mother, did sister Qionghua and I help you a lot? 】
[Mother, did you see that? Helian Hengxin has been killed by Helin Zhuli.]
[Originally, Sister Qionghua and I wanted to bring him back to the Great Chu State and build a secret room for him! ]
[Mother doesn’t know that my sister Qionghua and I have been in that dark secret room for the past two days. Not only that, we even had to pretend to be asleep!]
[Helian Hengxin would come to check on us seven or eight times a day, fearing that we would run away.]
[Tsk tsk tsk, that place is really not for human beings. 】
[It was his luck to die at the hands of Helian Zhuli. 】
"Hmph!" Lu Xingwan snorted coldly, describing himself as a complete villain.
Song Qingyan smiled helplessly and picked her up from the ground.
Then he turned to look at Helian Zhuli in front of him.
But I don't know what to ask.
Seeing his sister kneeling on the ground without saying a word, Helian Renxin suddenly ran to her and knelt down as well: "Zhu Li, what happened?"
Helian Zhuli, who had been silent for a long time, raised her head only after hearing her brother's voice.
But there was no trace of sadness on his face.
On the contrary, her face was filled with smiles, and the joy brought by the successful revenge filled her chest, making her feel unprecedentedly happy: "Brother, brother, Helian Hengxin was killed by me, I avenged my father and mother!"
Besides her joy, Helian Zhuli's heart was also filled with a sense of loneliness. Even if her revenge was successful, her family had already been broken up.
Helian Renxin held Helian Zhuli's hand tightly, his eyes full of heartache.
In the past, the relationship between Helian Renxin and his sister was not very good.
They even look down on each other from the bottom of their hearts.
Helian Zhuli looked down on Helian Renxin because he was a prince but did nothing and had no ability at all.
Helian Renxin also looked down on Helian Zhuli. Relying on her beauty, she flirted with other women all day long, which was really unbecoming of the royal family.
However, since the death of their father, the emperor, and their mother, the queen, the brother and sister have depended on each other for survival, and a kinship has developed between them that had never existed before.
Looking at his sister in front of him, Helian Renxin hugged her in his arms and couldn't help crying.
He reached out and patted her shoulder, and said softly, "Don't worry, Zhuli, everything is over."
There was a rare gentleness in his tone.
At this point, Helian Renxin suddenly turned around, knelt down facing Song Qingyan, and kowtowed: "No matter how you punish me, my sister is just a woman, please spare her life."
Helian Renxin's sudden action scared Song Qingyan.
She took several steps back before she spoke: "Don't worry, I can't deal with your sister now. Everything has to wait for our Majesty to make a decision."
"As for the rest of you, you will naturally be escorted back to the capital of Da Chu."
Just as Song Qingyan finished speaking, Shen Xiao, who had fought his way to the outside of Helian Hengxin's bedroom, walked in quickly: "My queen, Jin Jing has been captured alive, what should we do with him?"
[Mother, you can’t let him die too easily! ]
[This bad guy brought me and sister Qionghua to the palace of Yuefeng Kingdom. If sister Qionghua didn't have spiritual power, I'm afraid we would have starved to death.]
[Mother! They didn’t even give Wanwan and Sister Qionghua food to eat. It was Sister Qionghua who took Wanwan to the kitchen to steal food!]
[But don't worry, mother. Wanwan and sister Qionghua are not the kind of people who will suffer losses. We played tricks last night and beat up Jin Jing.]
[Mother, go out and take a look later. There must be blue and purple spots on Jin Jing's face. It's very interesting.]
[I'm afraid there will be injuries on his body. 】
[Sister Qionghua beats people without hesitation.]
Thinking that the soldiers outside had already reached the harem, Song Qingyan simply handed Lu Xingwan to Pei Chuyan's arms.
The movements are very skillful.
It's not just Song Qingyan who is skillful. Pei Chuyan's posture of holding the baby is even more skillful.
The secret guards who followed their master out for the first time were so frightened that they didn't dare to look their master directly in the eye.
Song Qingyan turned and looked at Shen Xiao who was standing at the door: "Escort him back to the camp first."
He then added: "Shen Xiao, you and Song Zhuo stay and clean up the battlefield."
"The people in the harem must be properly placed and await their fate."
"Lieutenant General Jiang and Lieutenant General Zhao, come with us. Take them..." When Song Qingyan said this, she turned around and pointed around Helian Hengxin's bedroom, "Take them back to the camp."
"Then let's bury Helian Hengxin!"
After all, he was an emperor. Even if there was no decent mausoleum, he would still be buried in the imperial tomb.
Then he paused and said, "Remember, there is one more person."
Shen Xiao hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Congratulations, Ba Kui."
Song Qingyan nodded and said nothing more. Since Shen Xiao knew everything, there was no need for her to get involved.
He stepped forward and patted Qiong Hua on the shoulder: "Thank you for your hard work on this trip."
