"Your Majesty is still alive, and the Crown Prince faked the death of the True Dragon to ascend the throne. This is a capital crime of usurping the throne!"
"The Wanjia Army has received orders from His Majesty to capture the Crown Prince!"
"Prince, please confess your crime immediately—"
Upon hearing the name of the Wan Family Army, the prince fell down on the stairs leading to the throne.
The day when the former crown prince plotted rebellion was the day when the Wan family army appeared and set the overall situation.
Afterwards, the Wan family army retired after completing their mission and returned to garrison in the northern border.
Over the years, he has been law-abiding and has made almost no noise.
In order to win over the Wan family army, the prince even married the granddaughter of General Wan as his concubine.
Even so, the Wan Family Army has never supported or opposed the Crown Prince, but the Crown Prince thought that with the in-laws, the Wan Family Army should be considered as one of his factions, right?
But now the Wan family army actually stabbed him in the back!
"Wan old dog! You've let me down!!"
The prince was so angry that he spat out blood.
When he urgently summoned the Imperial Guards to protect him again, the Imperial Guards surrounded the court instead.
Commander Wu Wei came out.
"Your Highness, please confess your guilt."
The prince then understood that even the Imperial Guards did not truly belong to him!
"you--"
"Wu Wei, don't forget, I married your sister!"
Wu Wei: "If you hadn't forced me to marry you, why would my sister have to be someone else's concubine?"
"You wanted to completely win me over and do such a disgusting thing. Do you think our Wu family should be grateful to you?"
"My sister had a good marriage prospect already! It's your arrogance that ruined her life!"
"Don't worry, once you confess your crime, Your Highness, I will use all my merits to ensure my sister's safety."
"My master will promise this!"
After saying that, Wu Wei waved his hand.
The Imperial Guards surrounded all the members of the prince's party.
The prince stood up with a pale face, drew his sword from the side and pointed it at Wu Wei.
"If you want to take me, then step over me!"
Of course Wu Wei would not let him die.
After a fierce battle, Duan Rongjue was ultimately defeated by the martial arts of the Forbidden City's number one master, and was pinned to the ground in a mess with his disheveled hair.
The Wan family army broke into the palace and quickly took control of the situation.
"Welcome His Majesty, return to the palace——"
Emperor Yan was carried back to the palace with his last breath.
The person serving him was the witch doctor who disappeared together.
Duan Rongjue then realized that this witch doctor was not from Xiyue at all.
Did he betray?
Or was he not really Xiyue's pawn from the beginning?
However, now he had no answer and could only shout unwillingly: "You are the ones plotting treason!"
"You are the traitors who falsely conveyed our father's order!"
"Father has long been unable to speak, how can he give you oral instructions?"
"You are the ones who deceived the world—"
General Wan sneered, "Crown Prince...oh no, Your Highness the Third Prince, please be careful with your words."
"It is a fact that you attempted to usurp the throne, and it is also true that Your Majesty has now regained his voice."
"Your Majesty, whom I personally serve, how could this be false?"
Duan Rongjue's eyes were filled with hatred. "Wan, you old dog! Do you think that if you drive our descendants of the Duan family apart and turn them into fratricide, you can ascend the throne with your young son and control the country?"
"Don't even think about it!!"
"Duan Rongshi will definitely not sit idly by. He will definitely come back to kill you and make you, an old dog, behead you and restore peace to the land of Daliang—"
General Wan: "You also know that His Royal Highness Prince Su will come back."
"Why bother trying so hard to get to that position?"
"Don't worry, Third Prince."
"Even if my granddaughter gave birth to your child under your scheme, that child would never sit in that high and lonely position."
"As for your concubine, she is the granddaughter of the old minister."
"In the future, they will follow me back to the Northern Frontier to live a good life with me and my son."
"I will never return to Jinling."
"Third Prince, please stay in the prison and wait for your punishment!"
General Wan waved his hand domineeringly, and Duan Rongjue, who was shocked and puzzled, was immediately dragged away.
"Who are you doing this for?"
"Who are you loyal to, anyway—?"
"Wan old dog—you will not die well—"
General Wan's eyes were filled with disdain: "You can't even guess this, you're so stupid!"
"If Your Highness didn't urgently need troops, there would be no need to confront you so soon. What's wrong with letting you roam around for another two years?"
"Power really does harm people beyond recognition."
"Now that Daliang has become like this, and you're still fighting here all day long, fighting for an empty shell and losing the people's support, won't the country be destroyed soon?"
"If it weren't for the Duan family's Prince Su, they would be completely hopeless."
"Someone come—"
"Quickly assemble the three armies, deploy troops, and send 300,000 troops to the border!"
"The Western Regions are unkind, and Heaven lacks humanity! Bullying Daliang and humiliating our Daliang princess is unforgivable. The two tribes have forged an irreconcilable feud!"
"Today, His Majesty has issued an order to send troops to attack the Western Regions—"
"To avenge the humiliation of our country—"
"Welcome back——His Royal Highness Prince Su——"
This battle lasted from the winter of last year to the spring of this year, and then to the autumn.
In the blink of an eye, winter has arrived again.
Although the winter in Mantuo City is hard to endure, Li Qingluo has lived here for a year and has become accustomed to it.
When she came back from outside, Dong'er immediately stepped forward and helped her untie her cloak.
"Your Highness, the Highness has received the letter."
Ever since Duan Rongshi led his troops to attack the Western Regions three months ago, Li Qingluo has been defending Mantuo City alone.
Today, Mantuo City is peaceful.
The entire city was well-managed and prosperous.
One month after Li Qingluo gave birth to the princess, Duan Rongshi held a relatively simple ceremony to crown her queen in Mantuo City.
