Chapter 275 Hereditary Succession
The soldier blew the whistle.
The tiger pack was immediately thrown into disarray.
There's no time to be distracted on the battlefield.
In that instant, the Zhenbei Army gained the upper hand.
Qin Jinzhi looked at one of the particularly strong tigers in the pack.
He was agile and had already wounded many soldiers.
But the soldiers couldn't touch it at all.
Qin Jinzhi curled her lips into a smile; this must be the leader of the tiger pack.
"Tu You, bring me the bow!"
Tu You immediately brought out a bow and arrows.
Qin Jinzhi stood up from the coffin.
He drew his bow to its fullest extent and aimed it at the tiger pack leader.
The arrow flew straight for the leader's forehead.
Unexpectedly, the tiger leaped into the air and snapped the bow and arrow in two with a single claw.
A tremendous tiger roared, and its green eyes turned toward Qin Jinzhi.
The tiger swiftly dodged the surrounding soldiers and pounced on Qin Jinzhi.
Excitement gleamed in Qin Jinzhi's eyes.
Tu You drew his sword and threw it to Qin Jinzhi.
Qin Jinzhi took the sword and charged at the tiger.
Cui Ying looked at Qin Jinzhi in disbelief.
That's a tiger!
He could bite Qin Jinzhi's neck off in one bite!
She quickly stepped forward to help.
But Tu You reached out and stopped her.
"The princess probably doesn't want others to interfere."
Cui Ying said anxiously, "Brother Tu, hurry up and help the princess! That tiger is no joke!"
Tu You laughed heartily upon hearing this, "This is the innate spirit that the young master of my Zhenbei Army should possess!"
Cui Ying then realized that in such a short time, the tiger pack had already been scattered and killed by the Zhenbei Army.
Only the tiger pack leader remained, confronting Qin Jinzhi!
All the Zhenbei Army soldiers waited with excited eyes for the future master of that massive army to subdue this beast.
The tiger was very alert and cunning, staring intently at Qin Jinzhi.
If you slack off even slightly, it will bite your neck off!
Qin Jinzhi held a sharp sword and stared directly into those tiger-like eyes.
Suddenly, she quickly circled behind the tiger and leaped into the air.
The tiger suddenly turned sharply, opened its blood-red maw, and pounced on Qin Jinzhi.
Qin Jinzhi raised her sword to defend, but the tiger's mouth gripped her sword tightly.
The tiger's sharp teeth were right in front of Qin Jinzhi.
Qin Jinzhi's eyes lit up with excitement, and she actually abandoned her sword and flipped herself onto the ground.
In the blink of an eye, he was riding on the tiger's back.
Qin Jinzhi quickly pulled out a dagger from her boot and plunged it into the tiger's nape.
The excruciating pain and the sight of blood drove the tiger into a frenzy.
It violently swung its body, throwing Qin Jinzhi down.
Qin Jinzhi was thrown to the ground, rolled on the spot, and picked up the sword from the ground.
As the tiger's eyes turned blood red and it pounced on her, she slashed at the tiger's head.
The enraged tiger shattered the sword and pounced on Qin Jinzhi, knocking her to the ground.
It roared to the sky and lunged at Qin Jinzhi's neck with its sharp teeth.
"Qin Jinzhi!!!"
Suddenly, the tiger crashed to the ground.
Painful cries still lingered in his mouth.
A blood-soaked figure crawled out from under the tiger.
Qin Jinzhi held the dagger, a broad smile on her face.
The tiger had just been gutted by Qin Jinzhi.
Tigers, whether in terms of skin, flesh, or bones, are incomparable to humans.
Their only fatal weaknesses are their soft abdomen and heart.
Qin Jinzhi pretended to be pounced on, and when the tiger stepped forward to bite off Qin Jinzhi's neck, it also exposed its weakness to Qin Jinzhi.
Humans, the most intelligent of all beings, are utterly cunning.
The instant Qin Jinzhi stood up.
The Zhenbei Army erupted in a deafening celebration!
"Princess!"
"Princess!"
"Princess!"
Qin Jinzhi wiped her face without any regard for her image.
"Take it back, skin it for the Empress Dowager, and make a tiger-skin stool!"
Several soldiers immediately carried away the tiger's carcass.
Qin Jinzhi leaped onto the coffin.
She bent one leg and casually draped her arm over it.
"Go back to the city!"
The four people, including Yun Que, lifted the coffin again.
However, his face was full of smiles at this moment.
Night fell over the entire capital city.
The firelight welcomed the large group of people as they entered the city.
Qin Jinzhi, covered in tiger's blood, sat on the coffin like a fierce demon crawling up from hell.
Many people in Beijing have heard about today's commotion.
Through the crack in the door, I saw Qin Jinzhi leading a group of people walking on the streets of the capital.
It was like a procession of a hundred ghosts at night.
Qin Jinzhi's clear and melodious voice echoed through the quiet streets.
"The imperial court is shrouded in gloom, and treacherous officials abuse their power and disrupt the order of the court."
Those who form cliques for personal gain and corrupt the nation suffer, while loyal and virtuous officials die with their blood staining their robes in resentment.
These blunt words made many of those who were peeping quickly close their doors.
The Cui family, the Du family, the Yang family, the Pei family, and the Xie family.
All the clans in this capital city.
They could all clearly hear Qin Jinzhi's voice.
That spoiled princess truly revealed her true colors to everyone.
The procession circled the city but did not go to the palace.
Instead, he returned to the Prince of Zhenbei's Mansion.
The next day, Qin Jinzhi changed into the brocade robe of the Princess of Zhenbei Prince's Mansion.
He entered the palace with Qin Ye.
The three families of Du, Yang, and Cui were impeached for plotting to kill loyal officials.
The Prince of Zhenbei asked the current emperor three questions.
One question was raised: Does the Emperor fear that the Zhenbei Army's achievements overshadow his own?
The second question was whether the emperor wanted to reclaim military power.
The three questions were: Was the assassination attempt on the emperor ordered by the emperor?
Qin Jinzhi entered the palace and requested that her title of princess be stripped and that she be demoted to a commoner.
The emperor was furious and ordered a thorough investigation of the Du, Yang, and Cui families.
The emperor issued another edict of self-reproach, which disheartened loyal ministers; this was a dereliction of duty on the part of the emperor.
Princess Jinzhi of the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion was granted the title of Princess Zhenguo.
Qin Jinzhi was granted special permission to inherit the hereditary title of "woman" without fail.
The entire court was in uproar.
In other words, a hundred years after Qin Ye, Qin Jinzhi will be the next Prince of Zhenbei!
The practice of women inheriting positions without fail is unprecedented in the history of the world.
But no one in the entire court dared to object!
These people targeted Qin Jinzhi because they feared the Zhenbei Army.
Now that all three are under investigation, anyone who opposes this will be treated as an ally.
After the court session, Lang Qingfeng and the others respectfully said at the palace gate, "Respectfully seeing off the princess!"
Qin Jinzhi's faction thus emerged in the imperial court.
The grandfather and grandson returned to the palace.
General Chen and Huo Tingshan were the leaders.
Xue Huaiyi, Li Muli, and Fu Yuanzhong followed behind.
The other soldiers knelt down on one knee the moment they saw Qin Jinzhi emerge from the carriage.
"Greetings, Young Master!"
Qin Jinzhi looked at the soldiers who were kneeling at her feet and said loudly, "Uncles, please rise."
General Chen looked at Qin Jinzhi's upright figure and then turned his gaze to Qin Ye behind her.
"Your Highness! Our Zhenbei Army finally has a successor!"
Qin Ye waved his hand, "Today, we won't leave until we're drunk!"
Compared to the joyous atmosphere of the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion.
The Kyoto Prefecture prison was shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere.
Assassinations in the capital were all under the jurisdiction of the Kyoto Prefecture.
Pei Jinnian arrived at the prison and said in a gentle voice, "His Majesty has ordered me to thoroughly investigate the assassination of Princess Jinzhi. I ask for your cooperation."
At this time, the prison was filled with the most powerful officials in the capital.
The current prime minister, minister, and chief envoy of the Privy Council.
Du Zhong looked coldly at Pei Jinnian, "Your Pei family has been acting as Qin Jinzhi's dogs. Have you ever thought about what your fate will be one day?"
In the past, Pei Jinnian would have argued heatedly, his face flushed.
But now, he just smiled slightly.
"It seems that the gentlemen are not willing to cooperate. In that case, Jin Nian can only act according to the law. Someone, loosen up the muscles of the gentlemen."
