Chapter 248 Wei Qingyan is not dead
The kid thought that after this reminder, Leng San and the others would lay down their weapons.
But what he got was Leng San's disdain, "You are just a mob, how can you be worthy of it?"
Not only did they not stop, but the fighting became more and more intense.
Lord Liu was both anxious and angry. Victory was just ahead, and they should have just rushed in, but the prince insisted on bringing these people in, and now they were just getting in the way.
But he did not dare to disobey the little devil, so he had to hold his nose and persuade him again.
"A wise man knows how to adapt to the times. You followed us in here and you've already lost your words. Why not earn a better future?"
"I'm your grandma. I've lived a clean life for most of my life. Now you want me to be a rebel. I'm going to kill you, you bastard." Leng San roared and raised his knife to chop at Lord Liu.
But Lord Liu was protected by hundreds of people, so how could he cut them down? "The prince thinks highly of you, so please don't be ungrateful.
To tell you the truth, apart from the Imperial Guards, the princes and ministers outside the palace have long been controlled by the Duke, and most of the court has already followed the Duke. It is completely futile for you to rely on just a few of you."
If he hadn't known that those people had been held hostage by the prince just like him, he wouldn't have been so determined to follow the prince down this path.
The prince is currently disabled and relies on him for everything. Once things are done, he will be a close minister to the emperor, a glory that none of his ancestors in the Liu family have ever had.
"Hmph, even with just a few of us, we will kill you, this dog official." Leng San swung his knife again.
Rebellion is a dangerous matter, and even a moment's delay could lead to unexpected events. Seeing that persuasion was fruitless, Lord Liu dared not wait any longer. Regardless of whether the little devil would blame him, he directly ordered, "Since they don't know what's good for them, send them to hell."
The rebels received the order and no longer had any scruples. They surrounded the National Protection Corps and started fighting.
The National Protection Army was outnumbered, and several were injured. Lord Liu snorted, "If you don't accept my offer, you'll be punished. You're overestimating your abilities. Stop now and I can spare your lives."
Someone spat in Lord Liu's direction, "Pah, even when Huangshaling was so difficult, the general didn't surrender. We were at least well fed and well-drained, so killing a few traitors would be a win. Why should I be afraid of you, you little bastard? Just do it."
Lord Liu was so angry that his fingers were shaking. He pointed at Leng San and the others and said, "Kill them! Kill them for me. Don't leave a single intact corpse."
But the strength of the National Protection Army is indeed much stronger than that of ordinary soldiers. Not wanting to waste time, he pointed at Leng San and Su Tong and ordered, "Kill them two first."
As long as these two old stubborn people are dead, they can leave some people to slowly kill the rest of the National Protection Army. They should find the emperor in time.
But just as he finished speaking, he saw a spear flying in the air, stabbing straight at him, and then he heard a female voice saying, "I am here, no one can take their lives."
The sound is not loud, but the momentum is natural.
Following closely behind the spear was a dark figure, rushing towards him like a sharp sword.
He hurriedly pulled a rebel to block him, but when he saw the man's face clearly, he froze in his tracks, "Ghost, ghost... there's a ghost..."
Isn’t it said that the imperial palace is the place with the most abundant purple energy, where even ghosts dare not approach? Why did the dead Wei Qingyan dare to show up?
But the spear pierced through him and the soldier in front of him. He no longer had the energy to think about this problem and fainted.
Wei Qingyan used all his strength to pull the Posha out of the two men's bodies. With a twist of his arm, he actually used the Posha to pick up the unconscious Lord Liu and threw him in front of Leng San out of thin air.
Leng San was no stranger to such things.
In the past, when a general captured an enemy general, if he needed to keep him alive, he would usually throw the enemy into the hands of his deputy generals.
Leng San almost instinctively grabbed Lord Liu's neck.
When Wei Qingyan saw him catch it, he looked up at the little ghost who also looked terrified, and with a wave of the Sha-Breaking Sword in his hand, he harvested a few more heads of rebels.
She heard the little ghost in King Jing's body screaming, "Wei...Wei Qingyan, you...you are not dead..."
Wei Qingyan curled his lips, "I'm not dead, but, Shi Zhao, your death is approaching."
Ever since she consummated her marriage with Shi Yu and the Merit Seal was restored to its place, she could see more than before. For example, right now, she could see through King Jing's body, see the little ghost attached to him, and hear his voice.
He looked like a child of seven or eight years old, but he tried his best to act like an adult, except that his little gray face was filled with fear and anger.
He lay on King Jing's back and waved his hands desperately, "Wei Qingyan, get out of this king's way, get out of here, don't ruin my plans..."
The aura of Wei Qingyan made him panic. It was a natural suppression of evil by righteousness. He could tell that Wei Qingyan was a living person, but he seemed a little different from ordinary people.
I don’t know what kind of fate she had, why there was such a terrifying golden light of merit on her body, and she could even see herself and know her own name.
All these made the little ghost uneasy.
But the throat of the body he was using was damaged, and those words could not be uttered through this body. In the eyes of everyone, it looked like Prince Jing was making a fuss, as if he was scared crazy by the sudden appearance of Wei Qingyan.
Wei Qingyan leaped lightly, stepped on the rebels' shoulders and spears, and came directly in front of the little ghost. He grabbed his collar and pulled him off the sedan chair, and placed the Posha across his neck.
Lord Liu was dead, Prince Jing was captured, and the rebels' momentum was greatly reduced. Not long after, Huang Kang also arrived with the National Protection Army.
When Huang Kang left the city to mobilize troops, he saw Wei Qingyan leading the National Protection Army into the city. He didn't know how to describe his feelings at that time.
He only remembered standing in the middle of the road in shock. Before he could say anything, the general flashed the seal of the National Protection Army and said to him, "Huang Kang, follow me to rescue the emperor."
They should have arrived earlier, but the rebels surrounded many officials' residences, and as they walked into the city, many residences clashed with the rebels, which delayed them for some time.
There were as many as 20,000 private soldiers who sneaked into the palace, and only 6,000 National Protection Army soldiers. The guards who followed the little devil probably knew that there was no way to retreat, so they decided to fight to the death.
At this time, Du Xueyi and General Zhou from the western suburbs camp also came with a team of armored soldiers.
The rebels were completely defeated.
General Zhou hurriedly led his men to the inner palace, but Du Xueyi turned in front of Wei Qingyan, bowed, and shouted, "General, would you like to follow me to the inner palace to meet His Majesty?"
Wei Qingyan's eyes warmed as he handed the little ghost to Du Xueyi. "I'm afraid there are remnants of the rebels. I will stay here to guard the place. Please ask Minister Du to bring the rebels to see His Majesty."
She understood Du Xueyi's intention of calling her General. He wanted to prove her identity to everyone.
Sure enough, after hearing Du Xueyi's words, Leng San and others crowded in front of Wei Qingyan.
Wei Qingyan's sudden appearance shocked them no less than the little ghost and the others, but they had to fight the enemy at that time and didn't have time to think too much.
Now a group of people stared at Wei Qingyan, and Leng San was the first to speak, "Are you really a general?"
Wei Qingyan nodded, "Yeah."
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Du Xueyi carried the little ghost to the inner palace. The emperor had been prepared, so nothing would happen.
He merely took this opportunity to send the little devil before His Majesty, and then brought Su Mao, who was dressed up as Prince Jing by the Jade-faced Young Master, before the public, to take the blame for the rebellion and be tortured to death by the people.
The general will take care of the little devil later, and he will not have a good ending.
As he rushed to the inner palace, a group of National Protection Army soldiers were still surrounding Wei Qingyan. Su Tong asked, "The general is really a woman. How did you deceive us before?"
"I have a younger brother who looks like me." Wei Qingyan's voice remained calm.
"Brother." Leng San murmured, as if he wanted to ask something. After hesitating for a moment, he pursed his lips and nodded slightly. "If you put it this way, I understand. I understand."
Someone asked, "General, are your martial arts skills better than before? I just saw you pierce three rebels in a row with a single swing of your Sha-Breaking Sword, without even looking at the enemy."
Wei Qingyan nodded, "Yeah, it's definitely better than before."
"Where does the general live now? How did he know we were in danger?" Leng San asked again.
Pursing his lips, Wei Qingyan said, "I used to live in Anyuan Marquis Mansion, and now I live in Rongwang Mansion."
They had something on their minds, and after hearing what Wei Qingyan said, they didn't think about what the general's current status was and why he lived in Prince Rong's Mansion.
Leng San scratched his head, "Then...then..."
After thinking for a long time, he still didn't ask the question in his mind, so he looked at Su Tong.
"I know what you want to ask." Wei Qingyan looked at the familiar faces, "I am the only one who survived. The rest died in the battle, including my brother."
Everyone fell silent, their faces filled with disappointment. They thought the general was alive, and perhaps the other brothers were also alive.
"Everyone says that the battle at Huangshaling was terrible and no one survived, but General Wei is still alive. Could it be that he was a deserter back then?" A sarcastic voice suddenly sounded.
