Xie Yunzhao held up his sword and slowly climbed the steps. His words were extremely cold: "With so many charges, your crimes are already extremely serious. I'm afraid that the edict of repentance is not enough. Your Majesty should just resign."
Zilin Guard leader Jiang Ming led his team to protect Li Chen: "General Xie, please step back."
Xie Yunzhao stopped and looked up at Jiang Ming, his tone full of helplessness: "He is about to abdicate, why are you still protecting him?"
"nonsense!"
"Who said I'm going to abdicate?" Li Chen grabbed Jiang Ming's clothes and stuck his head out: "I'm sitting on the dragon throne well, Jiang Ming, you must protect me well."
"Do you think he is worthy of selling the treasure passed down from his ancestors overseas?"
"It's true that the Purple Scale Guards have protected kings for generations, but are you still going to protect a king who can sell out the Great Zhou?" Xie Yunzhao questioned. He used his inner strength, and his voice was mellow enough to penetrate the entire hall.
Suddenly, two groups of people came in from outside the hall, holding swords and surrounded the ministers.
Li Chen panicked: "Commander of the Imperial Guards, what are you doing? Don't you know that so many rebels have come in?"
The commander of the imperial guards lowered his head, and his entire family was locked up.
He thought he was sorry for being forced to compromise, but now he wanted to join the rebels. He was ashamed to protect such a tyrant: "Your Majesty, I agree with what General Xie said."
Li Chen stared with a pair of scarlet eyes and shouted angrily: "Rebellion! You all rebelled, General Wei, Marquis Dingyuan, where are your soldiers? Are you just going to watch them rebel?"
General Wei sneered: "Your Majesty, I wanted to be the Third Prince's concubine. Did Your Majesty arrange for her to fall into the water and be rescued by Xie Yunzheng?"
"This, how is this possible?" Li Chen felt very guilty. How come everything he did was known?
No, it was Yongjia who persuaded him to do so.
"It was Princess Yongjia's idea. She was afraid that you would marry the third brother."
"So, Your Majesty has admitted it? Then do you dare to admit that the death of your servant was also your doing?"
"You are slandering me. Why should I care about my subjects' women giving birth?"
General Wei was also furious. He grabbed a rebel's sword and rushed towards the throne: "I have tortured that imperial physician. The medicine he prescribed was the blood-activating medicine ordered by Your Majesty!"
Li Chen's pupils shrank slightly, and he said guiltily: "Why should I do that? She is just Xie Yunzheng's concubine..."
"Why? The Yang family supports the princess, the daughter-in-law of the Xie family, and the Wei family is also married to the Xie family. Of course you are afraid that the three of us will gather our forces."
"You don't take the lives of your subjects and their families seriously just because you are suspicious of them. You are not only unworthy of being a king, you are simply a beast worse than pigs and dogs!"
Li Chen was really panicked. The Xie family army became rebels and General Wei became his enemy. Could he continue to sit on the throne?
Xie Yunzhao stared at Jiang Ming: "The Great Zhou can't stand the turmoil. If it continues like this, even if no one attacks, it will be destroyed by the incompetent ruler."
Jiang Ming avoided his gaze and was torn between his conscience and his desires. They, the Zilin Guard, had been supported by the royal family for generations, and had also been guarding the emperor for generations.
It was also the first time for him to experience an emperor who was unworthy of being a king.
The officials below all understood what had happened. It turned out that before Li Chen ascended the throne, he was afraid that the Wei family would be involved with the Third Prince, so he asked Xie Yun, a member of the Prince's Party, to take the Wei family's legitimate daughter as a concubine.
After he ascended the throne, he was afraid of the Xie family's military power, so he destroyed the bridge in the middle, and the relationship between the Wei family and the Xie family was severed.
It is impossible not to feel chilled. Unbelievable things are happening before them one after another, constantly impacting their hearts.
Even the officials who had been following Li Chen during his time as Qianlong felt as if they had supported a devil.
Xie Yunzhao didn't have time to waste with them, so he had to finish the matter quickly so that he could go home to be with Rongrong.
The tip of his sword was still pointing at Jiang Ming in front of Li Chen, and he said to everyone: "Also, 40,000 people have surrounded the palace, and the 70,000 troops of the Xie family have surrounded the capital. Everyone, please consider whether you will let this tyrant continue to destroy the Great Zhou bit by bit?"
Jiang Ming looked extremely embarrassed and took a step back when he was questioned.
This step made the sword in the hand of the Zilin Guard behind him a little unstable.
Xie Yunzhao turned around and gave Gu Kaizhi a look, and Gu Kaizhi also drew his sword.
Minister Gu held a high position in the government and was sitting in the first row. When he saw his son come in, he knew that this fool was following Xie Yunzhao in doing something stupid again.
Seeing him draw his sword, my heart leapt into my throat, but I didn't dare to call him, for fear that my silly son would attract attention.
Lu Ziqian saw clearly what the two were doing, and he grasped the hilt of the knife, keeping his eyes on Xie Yunzhao.
He just started fighting with Jiang Ming, Gu Kaizhi and other rebels rushed over immediately, Zilin Guards came over to protect them, a group of people fought together, the scene was in chaos.
But everyone discovered that the Zilin Guards were losing ground and couldn't even defeat the rebels.
Xie Yunzhao broke free from Jiang Ming's entanglement and flew towards Li Chen who was trying to escape. Just as he was about to stab with his sword, Jiang Ming grabbed his ankle and pulled him back.
Xie Yunzhao frowned and shouted to let go, then turned back and fought with Jiang Ming.
At this moment, Lu Ziqian made a move, and Xie Yunzhao actually wanted to assassinate Li Chen directly.
Xie Er, I'll take the credit for this time!
When I become successful, I will never forget you as my brother!
He raised his sword and stabbed Li Chen...
"Ziqian, don't do that!!!" When Censor Lu saw this scene, he was so scared that he shouted like crazy.
Unfortunately, the sword was already close to him and the chief steward tried to block it, but lost his life in vain.
Lu Ziqian is also good at Kung Fu, otherwise he and Xie Yunzhao would not be able to play together.
After killing the chief steward, he did not pause, but swung his sword towards the emperor who was fleeing frantically...
Puff——
The sharp knife penetrated the flesh and pierced Li Chen's chest.
A large amount of blood gushed out of his mouth. He turned around and pointed at Lu Ziqian without being able to speak. Finally, he fell to the ground with his eyes still wide open.
For a moment, all the people fighting stopped and stared at the scene, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Emperor Li Chen died just like that!!!
Lu Ziqian turned around to look at Xie Yunzhao, then looked at the Third Prince with joy, his eyes seemed to say, among the people who have made great contributions to the emperor, I am probably the second greatest.
"Lu Ziqian, how dare you kill the king!" Xie Yunzhao shouted angrily, picked up the sword and put it on Lu Ziqian's shoulder.
Lu Ziqian suddenly felt panicked. He said, "Brother, haven't you finished performing yet?"
He frowned and looked at him: "Didn't you say that he is not worthy of being the emperor and asked him to abdicate?"
"They asked him to abdicate, but they didn't say they wanted to kill him. He is still the emperor now!"
Lu Ziqian panicked: "But, you stabbed him with your sword?"
"I wanted to stop him from escaping. My Xie family is full of loyal subjects. How could they kill the king? But you..."
Xie Yunzhao smiled secretly in his heart, but his face was full of pain: "Come here, Lu Ziqian killed the king, tie him up and put him in the sky prison."
Several rebels came over and tied up the man.
"That's not the case, you obviously want to kill him!"
