The sky was filled with thunder and lightning, corpses were everywhere, and blood flowed like a river.
After several bombings, Guo Shun captured 100,000 Guo troops in southern Xinjiang without losing a single soldier.
In fact, Shang Ruoyi did not want to deal with the Southern Xinjiang soldiers in such a cruel way at first. In her opinion, there is no right or wrong in war, just different positions.
But what really annoyed her was what the deputy general said.
In the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun that were invaded by Southern Xinjiang, the people of three cities were brutally massacred, even babies were not spared.
How innocent!
How could we treat those defenseless civilians in such a ruthless manner?
What did those people do wrong?
Therefore, Southern Xinjiang must be changed!
Just then, a gray bird landed on her shoulder. It was the messenger of the Vermillion Bird.
When she saw the contents of the note, Shang Ruoyi said coldly, "Something happened in the palace."
At this time in the palace, He Lingsheng and the Imperial Noble Consort were sitting opposite Emperor Shun.
"Bitch! How dare you rebel!" Emperor Shun said angrily, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill all your clans!"
"Punish your nine clans?" The Imperial Concubine laughed wildly, "If you die, even if your son succeeds to the throne, your nine clans will be executed. Do you think you will be punished?"
Emperor Shun looked at He Lingsheng and said, "You rebellious son, you evil creature! How dare you and this bitch seize my kingdom? You are rebellious and against human ethics!"
"Haha, human relations?" He Lingsheng suddenly laughed and looked at Emperor Shun: "What human relations? You are the father and I am the son, so I cannot seize your kingdom, but what if I am not your son?"
"What did you say?"
"Sheng'er is not your child at all! He is the son of you and the King of Southern Xinjiang. When you become the emperor of this Shun, Southern Xinjiang will be yours. After you annex the Western Regions and capture Beiling, you will own this land. The whole world belongs to you and your son."
"Poisonous woman! Poisonous woman!"
He Lingsheng threw the blank edict in front of me and said, "Write the abdication edict. I can consider sparing your life because you have raised me for so many years. But if you don't know how to appreciate it, don't blame me for being merciless." I drew the long sword in my hand and pointed the tip of the sword at me, "Father, do you remember this sword? You gave it to me when I appointed you as the crown prince. This is my first time."
Emperor Shun knew that his situation was hopeless, but he didn't understand why he suddenly became like this.
Looking at the edict, he knew clearly that as long as he wrote the abdication edict, his life would end.
"quick!"
He Lingsheng's eyes were red, he wanted the throne!
Only by obtaining the throne will he have the confidence to fight He Jingheng.
If you dare to resist, I will punish you for disrespect and uproot Prince Ding's Mansion. Only when He Jingheng falls, Shang Ruoyi will know who is the one who can match her.
Emperor Shun picked up the pen and wrote down the abdication edict word by word. When he wrote to whom the throne would be passed, he stopped writing.
At this moment, a feather arrow fell from the sky. He Lingsheng sensed the arrow energy and hurriedly dodged, but in fact, the feather arrow was not aimed at him.
"Puff!" A stream of blood spurted out. The imperial concubine looked at the long arrow that pierced her chest in disbelief and fell down unwillingly.
The next moment, a green figure appeared in the room.
"He Lingsheng, please stop." He Lingqi said coldly, "Don't make the same mistake over and over again."
He Lingsheng looked at 놛: "Why is it you?"
“Why not 놖?”
"So, you covet the throne." He Lingsheng said angrily: "What qualifications do you have..."
"Then what qualifications do you have? How can someone with the blood of the King of Southern Xinjiang be qualified to sit on this dragon throne?"
"I am the prince!"
"So what, Prince?" He Lingqi said in a deep voice, "Don't resist any longer. The secret agents you planted in the palace have all been eliminated by Wang and Dingguo Palace." As soon as he finished speaking, Shang Ruoyi and He Jingheng walked in with a group of generals.
Ever since he saw Shang Ruoyi, He Lingsheng no longer looked at anyone else.
“You’re here.”
Shang Ruoyi frowned and said nothing.
"I knew you would come." He Lingsheng laughed crazily, "I want to ask you a question. What do I mean to you?"
Shang Ruoyi was stunned by the question: "Do you guys know each other?"
"Do you remember this hairpin?" 놛 took out a wooden hairpin and said, "You saved me back then, and I took your hairpin and promised to marry you. Don't you remember all this?"
Shang Ruoyi sneered, "Your Highness, what are you talking about in your sleep with a broken hairpin in your hand?"
He Lingsheng looked at her steadily, trying to see a reluctant look in her eyes, but there was none.
She really doesn't remember herself or what happened back then.
Thinking of this, 놛 couldn't help but laugh at himself.
From the beginning to the end, I was just being sentimental.
She looked at He Jingheng, the smile on her face disappeared, and she said in a deep voice: "You win, you win after all."
"I never want to compete with you." He Jingheng said lightly: "If you hadn't done these things and hadn't been instigated by your mother, you might be a wise ruler, and I would help you keep the throne."
"Hahaha, wise monarch? Don't forget, you are the son of the King of Southern Xinjiang! You have dirty blood in your body!" There was a hint of madness in your eyes. You looked at He Jingheng and suddenly laughed: "You didn't lose." You stabbed the long sword in your hand straight at Emperor Shun.
As soon as the long sword pierced the flesh, it could no longer move forward.
He looked at the bloody hole on his chest and turned around with difficulty. The gun in Shang Ruoyi's hand slowly fell, and He Lingsheng's body fell straight back. Until his death, he still held the wooden hairpin tightly in his hand.
The chaos in the palace ended, and Emperor Shun only suffered some minor injuries. He Yuwen and He Lingsheng led their troops southward, recaptured the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun at the fastest speed, and then continued to attack southern Xinjiang. It took only more than a month for them to take the head of the King of Southern Xinjiang.
They brought the head of the King of Southern Xinjiang back to the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun to commemorate the innocent people who were slaughtered.
Half a year later, Emperor Shun abdicated, and the fourth prince He Lingqi succeeded to the throne and pardoned him.
When discussing rewards, He Jingheng refused ten thousand taels of gold and only asked the new emperor for a fiefdom.
When Shang Ruoyi and others stepped into the land of exile again, it had completely changed.
The original low houses and shabby houses have disappeared. There are two-story buildings made of blue bricks everywhere. Some areas are still under construction. Wu Wenhan held the blueprint and shouted loudly: "No, no! We need to build stairs here. All positions must be consistent. Do you know what a villa complex is?"
Shang Ruoyi saw this and said with a smile, "Mr. Wu, you have worked hard."
“It’s not hard, not hard!” Wu Wenhan waved his hand and said, “I have never seen such a magical house in my life. It is so exquisite. If I can see it built with my own eyes, my life will be worthwhile!”
At this time, a carriage stopped and all the women from the Dingwang Palace arrived. He Yunyi supported the old princess and Qin, Lin Shuyu held the child in her arms, and He Qinian carried something behind her. Lin from the third room and Cong Fangzhi got off the carriage. Cong Fangzhi's child could already walk and babbled non-stop.
"Ruoyi, your house is so beautiful!"
Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "This was designed by my mother. I just asked Mr. Wu to build the one she drew."
As soon as the words fell, a deep voice was heard.
"Daughter." Jun Ke whispered, "How come your courtyard is next to your brother's?"
"Why not?"
"I want to stay away from you. I am so annoyed by watching you all day long and not letting you do this or that. You said you are not young anymore, but you don't want to get married. It's annoying to see you like that."
"I just want you to eat less sweets. Besides, it was Ruoyi who didn't let you eat them." Jun Zegan said helplessly, "Why are you angry with 놖?"
When the King of the City heard this, he looked a little embarrassed, glared at me and said, "Why, I raised so many children for you, and you can't even say a few words?"
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but lower their heads and hold back their laughter.
I had only heard that the King of the Western Region City was brave and good at fighting, but I didn't expect that he had such a childish temperament.
At night, He Jingheng came back from outside. The two came to the city wall and looked at the lights of thousands of houses. He Jingheng gently embraced her and said, "It is the greatest blessing in my life to marry you."
"Do you remember the treasure location we found by following the treasure map?"
When this matter was mentioned, He Jingheng's body suddenly stiffened.
"What do you mean by this?"
When they found the place, they discovered that the treasure was in a cave. The cave was empty. There was no gold, silver or jewelry. There was only a stone box with a note in it.
There were a few words written on it: Go to the throne, I don't want to play with it anymore, I want to go back to China!
"The place called Huaxia is my hometown."
It is true!
He Jingheng, who was holding her, suddenly became nervous. After a while, he said in a hoarse voice: "So, one day, you will go back, right?"
Shang Ruoyi smiled, she touched her slightly bulging belly, and said softly: "I didn't know why I traveled through time before. I always thought that such a magical thing existed in fantasy, but now I know that I have crossed time and rushed to mountains and seas just for you."
