Chapter 417 Opening the Coffin
"Who dares to disguise himself as my king? This is my queen Jiang Nanjiao, and these are my son and daughter." Zhan Beiheng said in a cold voice.
The people looked at their family of four.
They all stood straight, with frank and confident expressions on their faces. They did not avoid anyone's gaze and did not seem nervous at all.
The fact that they can remain so calm and composed in front of so many people shows that they are genuine.
"They are fake, don't be fooled by them. If they dare to come to Xian'an City, they will put on a full show." Huangfu Ming shouted to the people.
Judging from the expressions of the people, they seemed to believe what Zhan Beiheng said.
We must never let the people stand on their side.
Otherwise, the situation today would be reversed.
Nan Jiao walked towards him and kicked him to the ground. "You and your daughter keep saying that we are pretending to be you. Then why are we pretending to be you?"
"You want to escape from Xian'an City!"
"Why are we fleeing? What crime have we committed?"
Huangfu Ming pursed his lips. He couldn't say that they were spies. He had to produce evidence, otherwise how could he convince the public.
Huangfu Xin's beautiful face was cold as she said, "You are spies. You stole the northern border defense map of Qin State from the Marquis' Mansion. That's why we blocked the whole city and searched for you."
Nan Jiao raised her head and looked at the woman on the tower. She looked to be about eighteen years old, with no makeup on her face, dressed in plain white, and with a calm look in her eyes.
She is indeed much more powerful than some noble ladies in the capital.
So many things have happened in the past two days, but she is still so calm and composed.
"The Zhenbei Marquisate is planning a rebellion. They have taken my son and daughter here as hostages. In order not to alert the enemy, only a few of us can come here."
"After we found them, we naturally wanted to leave as soon as possible. After all, we are few in number. As for why the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion did not let us leave."
"Because we found evidence of their conspiracy with the Queen and secret letters with the State of Wei in the old marquis' secret room."
Nan Jiao said this and took out two letters from her sleeve pocket.
When Huangfu Xin saw the letter in Nan Jiao's hand, he turned sideways and winked at Qi Jinsong beside him.
Qi Jinsong quickly understood.
He quietly walked back and strode towards the archers, letting them secretly shoot arrows to kill Nan Jiao and Zhan Beiheng.
Now the relationship is broken.
Prince Jin and Princess Jin must not be allowed to leave Xian'an City, otherwise he will not have a good ending when they return to the capital.
The people were all staring at Nan Jiao.
Nan Jiao, however, did not rush to open the letter. Instead, she looked at Huangfu Xin on the tower and said with a half-smile, "Huangfu Xin, are you planning to kill us to silence us?"
When the people heard this, they looked up at Huangfu Xin.
Huangfu Xin gritted her teeth secretly. She didn't expect her to speak so bluntly. She said coldly, "Stop spreading rumors here and kill all these spies!"
She didn't want to deal with them anymore.
I just want to kill them quickly to prevent any future troubles and avoid any accidents.
Nan Jiao's beautiful eyes were sharp, and she said in a deep voice: "Open the coffin!"
Bang——
The coffin lid was pushed open by Baihu and fell to the ground.
When the people saw this, they retreated one after another.
It's so sunny here, will the old marquis's body become smelly from the sun?
Huangfu Xin's eyes widened, and she was anxious and angry. She said in a sharp voice: "How dare you, you bastards, do this to my grandfather? Cover the coffin, cover it!"
Grandfather is dead.
Why is he still not able to rest in peace even after his death?
In broad daylight, he was left lying in a coffin on the street, exposed to the scorching sun.
At this moment, her heart seemed to be bleeding.
"You bastards, build the coffin. You are doing such a shameless thing. Aren't you afraid that my old man will turn into a ghost and come after you?"
Huangfu Ming never expected that they would do such a thing.
As a son, he had failed to protect his father before, and now that he was dead, he still hadn't been able to protect him.
When he was alive, he was an old marquis, rich and respected.
After his death, he was insulted in the street like this.
Huangfu Ming was going crazy and struggled continuously, but the rope was tied in a complicated way and someone was holding him, so there was no way he could escape.
Nan Jiao raised her eyebrows and looked at Huangfu Xin, "If you dare to attack us, we will use your grandfather and your father to stop you, and let the people of the whole city see the true face of the Huangfu family!"
Huangfu Xin's face turned pale. If only his father was there, he would definitely choose to sacrifice himself like his grandfather.
But now Grandpa's body is here.
He had just been put into the coffin, and now he was being exposed to the scorching sun. If she attacked, the arrows would surely shoot him into a sieve.
Originally, she felt guilty about his death.
No matter how cruel she was, she couldn't allow anyone to shoot arrows at his body at this moment.
"What do you want?" Huangfu Xin said coldly, her nails piercing deeply into the flesh, blood dripping onto the ground. She knew that the Huangfu family had lost this round.
"Open the city gate and let us leave. Be kind to all the people in the city. We will fight face to face in the future!" Nan Jiao said coldly in a powerful voice, and now her face was torn.
If we want to take back Xian'an City and Yingze City, this battle is inevitable.
But the Huangfu family and the Empress deserve to be put to death!
If it weren't for them, how could Qin have been in civil strife?
"Okay, I'll let you go!" Huangfu Xin made the decision without hesitation. Once they left Xian'an City, they might not be able to return to the capital of Qin smoothly.
After all, the journey is so long.
Yingze City belongs to them.
Moreover, she had also informed the generals stationed at the border of Wei State, and she didn't know whether the other side would make a move secretly.
The city gates gradually opened.
Zhan Beiheng looked at the people and said in a steady and powerful voice: "The Qin State will not ignore everyone, you all protect yourselves. If the Huangfu family bullies you, you must unite and resist!"
The people's eyes became sore and dull as they listened to his words.
He is the King of Jin.
Come and choose with Zhenbei Houfu.
They would definitely choose to believe him. After all, he had been on the battlefield for ten years, and every time he had defended the Qin State. His title of God of War was the most convincing.
If the Marquis of Zhenbei really wanted to rebel, they would naturally not choose to stand on his side.
"Prince Jin, you guys hurry back to the capital, we will be fine. If the Huangfu family has the guts to kill all the people in the city, then the ancestors of the Huangfu family will probably be so angry that they die."
In the crowd, a tall middle-aged man spoke in a loud voice.
The Huangfu family has guarded Xian'an City for generations.
In the past, they were all loyal to Qin.
I just didn't expect that they would rebel now.
It really brings shame to the ancestors of the Huangfu family.
Zhan Beiheng looked at Nan Jiao.
Nan Jiao understood and signaled Baihu and the others to continue lifting the coffin. Huangfu Xin was still concerned about her grandfather's body, so it naturally had to be moved out of the city.
At least they can return it to her once they are in a safe area.
Of course, Huangfu Ming was also taken out of the city.
If it weren't for the long journey back to the capital, they probably wouldn't have had a smooth journey, otherwise they would have to bring Huangfu Ming back to the capital and put him in custody.
On the city tower.
Huangfu Xin watched Nan Jiao and the others leave from the city gate with disdainful eyes. She almost bit her teeth in hatred. She knew that the next time they met, they would have to fight on the battlefield.
She now just prays that everything goes well for the Queen.
