The sigh was extremely sarcastic, and Huang Chao felt a sudden tightness in his heart.
"you...."
A deafening battle cry rang out. He looked toward the gate in confusion. The martial arts practitioners who were blocking the gate with their bodies were still holding it back, but the gate was not being rammed again. After a burst of noise, a series of faint sounds came from the sound of one person shouting, which then turned into a group of people shouting.
"General Wang Shi'an has annihilated the rebels! Please open the palace gates!!!"
Huang Chao froze completely.
Suddenly, a series of events flashed through his mind, from Fang Zhiyi's introduction of him to seek refuge with Wang Shi'an, to Wang Shi'an's mission to wipe out the Demonic Sect, and then to this escort mission...
He's not stupid; a stupid person couldn't get such good grades.
"Fang Zhiyi! You schemed against me!!"
Fang Zhiyi shook her head: "I didn't scheme against you, I warned you."
In the original storyline, after Fang Zhiyi was killed by Jiang Gucheng, the court was in turmoil. A scholar raised the banner of rebellion and started a rebellion. The corrupt Western Shu was almost quickly occupied by the rebel army. The rebel army's slogan was that everyone is equal, but wherever they went, there was bloodshed. They wantonly robbed and killed the people. When they attacked the capital, the emperor fled with his officials, and the people of the capital became the targets of their venting.
Although the rebellion was eventually quelled, the entire Western Shu was on the verge of collapse, and the powerful figures of the Jianghu acted with even greater impunity, causing untold suffering to the people.
As Huang Chao led his troops out, Wang Shi'an, in accordance with his agreement with Fang Zhiyi, mustered his troops and began to move out.
Fang Zhiyi raised the candlestick in her hand. Huang Chao opened his mouth as if to say something, but then said nothing more.
Wang Shi'an strode into the Golden Palace, his face grave as he looked at the scene before him.
He met Fang Zhiyi's gaze, and Fang Zhiyi slightly turned to make way for the child behind her.
Wang Shi'an breathed a sigh of relief.
Upon seeing Wang Shi'an, the child uncontrollably burst into tears: "Grandpa!!!"
Wang Shi'an paused for only a moment before kneeling on one knee: "General Wang Shi'an of Western Shu pays his respects to the Emperor!"
The soldiers behind him also knelt down on one knee.
The little boy stood there, somewhat bewildered.
Fang Zhiyi glanced at him. Everything was finally settled. He had been laying the groundwork for this for far too long.
Wang Shi'an was different from those people. He was a former official of the late emperor and was never satisfied with the situation in Western Shu. However, as a subject, he could not disobey the emperor until that young man calmly suggested changing the emperor.
He was angry at the time, but he hesitated when faced with the young man's sharp questioning.
Wang Shi'an's mind was filled with Fang Zhiyi's scheme. Logically, he should have directly apprehended the other party and handed him over to the Ministry of Justice, but Fang Zhiyi's words kept echoing in his ears: "We are just angry and feel powerless, so should we do nothing? Even the censors dare to speak out, but the general can only complain at home under the influence of alcohol. How pathetic."
"My family, Wang Shi'an, has been loyal and virtuous for generations. We would never do anything treasonous!" This was his bottom line.
The young man laughed and said, "Even without the old general's rebellion, you are still a loyal subject, you must be." He walked into the courtyard and said, "I heard that the old general has a daughter who was taken into the emperor's harem and has now given birth to a little prince. Fang Zhiyi would like to congratulate the general on becoming a grandfather."
