"Husband..."
Although it was April, the nights in Guanyun City were still cold and the dew was heavy. Xue Yuyan took out a cloak and put it on Fan Tianning's shoulders.
It has been more than a month since he came to Guanyun City. Fan Tianning has a smile on his face during the day, but he tosses and turns and can't fall asleep at night.
Fan Tianning couldn't sleep again that night, so he simply got up and tiptoed into the yard.
Fan Tianning grabbed Xue Yuyan's hand and forced a smile: "I'm fine, don't worry about me, go to sleep."
"I-I can't sleep."
"Oh, then come with me to look at the stars."
Fan Tianning gazed at the brilliant starry sky, his mind still on the Fan Kingdom.
He has no source of intelligence now and doesn't know what is happening to the State of Fan.
Fu Xiaoguan will definitely not let Fan Guo go. Fan Guo participated in the war, which was a wrong thing. He said...you have to pay a price for doing something wrong.
The price is too high, so high that in a few months, the State of Fan will cease to exist.
The National Master practiced Buddhism all his life, but he did not realize that the Buddha nature is always pure and cannot be affected by dust.
He stirred up trouble, he killed Emperor Wen Wu Changfeng, and also killed Empress Dowager Xu Yunqing of the Wu Dynasty!
These are Fu Xiaoguan's biological parents. Such hatred will inevitably be avenged on the people of Fan State.
Even if you want to stay out of it and keep yourself out of it, it is extremely difficult.
After all, I have the royal blood of the Fan Kingdom flowing in my body. Will Fu Xiaoguan let me go because of their old friendship?
This is a way to survive, for the sake of this bloodline, for Xue Yuyan, and for the child in Xue Yuyan's belly.
Xue Yuyan also had the same concerns. She came from the Xue Clan, one of the six major clans in the former Yu Dynasty. She knew very well that the emperor was ruthless and was afraid that he would kill everyone.
She should have died during the Yu Dynasty, but she finally fled to the Fan State and married the Thirteenth Prince because of the kite.
She wouldn't be too afraid of dying again now, but after she confirmed that she was pregnant, she no longer wanted to die, she was afraid of death.
"Do you think... he will let us go?"
"Don't worry, Fu Xiaoguan is not a bloodthirsty person. He doesn't pursue conquering the world at all. We are not important enough for him to kill us."
"…What is he pursuing?"
"He pursues the higher and more distant sea of stars."
Xue Yuyan fell silent, thinking that if this was true, that would be great.
…
…
That night.
The Changjin City of Fan State and the imperial palace.
The fat man subdued Queen Hui and Fan Lihua, Bei Wangchuan fought alone against the two great saints of Fan State, Ning Fatian entered the imperial study with a sword, subdued the prime minister and the minister of war of Fan State, and captured the emperor of Fan State, Fan Zigui, alive.
The next day, Shitou's troops, numbering over 40,000, arrived at Jang Geum's city. For a moment, the sound of artillery roared and the soldiers were in chaos.
It should have been a court meeting.
All the civil and military officials in the court were waiting anxiously in the Golden Palace, but where was the emperor?
The battle has already begun, where has the emperor gone?
The prime minister is missing too!
The Minister of War is also missing!
What is going on?
Just when the ministers were feeling uneasy, the fat man walked into the Golden Palace wearing a blue linen robe and with a dark face.
Under the shocked gazes of his ministers, he walked straight to the Dragon Platform and sat down on the throne.
He even carefully touched the smooth armrest of the dragon throne, grinned and said, "Tsk tsk tsk, this old guy really knows how to enjoy himself. The cushion is soft and comfortable to sit on."
"Who are you? How dare you sit on His Majesty's throne? Come here...!"
The fat man smiled slightly, raised his hand and fired a shot, "Bang...!" The shot hit the man right between the eyebrows. The man fell to the ground with a thud. The ministers were immediately in an uproar. The fat man raised his hand and fired another shot into the air, "Silence...!"
The fat man stood up, put his hands behind his back, took two steps forward, and said arrogantly: "I am the Emperor Wu, and I now declare that the Fan State... no longer exists!"
Emperor Wu?!
He is the emperor of the Wu Dynasty!
How did he sit on the dragon throne of Fan State?
The fighting outside was going on fiercely, so how come the State of Fan no longer existed?
This group of ministers were intimidated by the gun in the fat man's hand, and no one stepped forward for a while.
The fat man leisurely loaded his ammunition. "Now, as the Emperor of the Wu Dynasty, I am telling you that you... are all dismissed from office!"
"What are you looking at? Do you believe I can shoot you to death?"
"Your emperor, Fan Zigui, and his family are now reunited, all together, no one has escaped, except Fan Tianning."
The ministers gasped. Your Majesty, Your Majesty has been arrested?
All of them were eaten up by this fat guy?
So what the hell is this war for?
"I'm announcing now that you're all laymen. I'm going to interrogate Fan Zigui now, so get out of here!"
Some people quietly retreated, but more people woke up at this moment - the country was destroyed?
Did the State of Fan perish just like that?
"You are spreading lies and misleading the people! May the Bodhisattvas bless our Great Fan Kingdom. Wu Dalang, you will not die a good death!"
"Bang...!" With one shot, the man died.
"Are all those who remain here to die for their country? I'll count to three. If you remain after three, I'll fulfill your honor!"
"three……!"
Several more people lowered their heads and retreated.
"two……!"
This time, more people quit!
"one……!"
There were more than twenty officials standing on the Golden Palace. They all raised their heads, straightened their backs, and looked at the fat man.
"We, Your Majesty, have been deeply grateful to you and have remained loyal to you and the Fan Kingdom throughout our lives. In this critical moment of life and death, we are prisoners and have no words to say. We are willing to be buried with our country!"
Officer Fu was silent for three breaths, then he fired.
The sound of gunfire echoed in the Golden Palace, more than twenty bodies were found, and the ground was covered in blood.
There are many Buddha statues carved on the four walls of the Golden Temple. The Buddha statues just look on indifferently, neither happy nor sad, and not attracted by the slightest dust.
Official Fu turned around and left, heading for Qifeng Palace.
There was a well-gathered family there, and he now needed an imperial edict from Fan Zigui.
"Wu Dalang, I can't possibly give you an imperial edict. The soldiers of Fan State will fight to the bitter end, even to the very last man!"
"They are the pride of the Fan Kingdom. Even if they die, their souls will return to the Buddha Kingdom."
The fat man slapped Fan Zigui in the face. "You're still so stubborn. Do you really think I don't know that you liked Xu Yunqing back then? But you, as a bastard, let the Imperial Master kill her. Are you even human?"
"Wu Dalang, you're talking nonsense!"
"I don't have time to waste on this now. If you don't issue an order on the count of three, I'll kill one of your descendants... starting with your grandchildren!"
Fan Zigui's eyes were bloodshot and he roared madly, "Wu Dalang, how dare you!"
The fat man laughed and said, "Ask Queen Hui if there is anything I dare not do."
Fan Zigui didn't understand. The fat man started counting while loading the bullets:
"three……!"
"Two-one!"
"Bang...!" The fat man raised his hand and fired a shot. Fan Zigui killed one of the emperor's grandsons, who was the prince's son.
"ah……!"
Everyone exclaimed, and the fat man said seriously, "You know I like Xu Yunqing, but you let Fan Wuxiang kill her!"
"It's only right for me to kill your entire family. The next three-beat countdown begins."
"Three, two, one!"
"Bang……!"
"Three, two, one!"
"Bang……!"
"stop!"
Fan Zigui collapsed, and the State of Fan collapsed.
The fat man looked up at the enshrined Buddha statue and said, "I am truly compassionate!"
"But I'm really angry! Don't you believe in the boundless Dharma? Now I beg you, let them live. If you can't... then I won't believe you. I will kill all those monks!"
The fat man shed tears, and the next day, several temples in Jang Geum Castle were stained with blood.
