The fake Ah Huai had been keeping an eye on the emperor's bedroom. After learning that something had happened to Prince Dongshan, he knew he had been exposed.
Concubine Jiang is the Dog Emperor's person, so the Dog Emperor knows everything about his contact with Concubine Jiang.
The fake Ah Huai ran away in advance when the Yulin Guards came to catch him.
After spending the past few months in the palace, he already knew everything that was going on there.
The fake Ah Huai knew that it was not easy to leave alive, especially if he had a hostage.
That bitch Concubine Jiang harmed her master, so he captured her little prince as a hostage and made her pay a heavy price.
The emperor was no pushover. He had long predicted that the fake would become desperate and had been on guard against the fake Ah Huai. It was impossible for him to take the eighteenth prince as a hostage, as Concubine Jiang was surrounded by experts.
The fake Ah Huai couldn't get close to Concubine Jiang at all and was caught outside Concubine Jiang's palace. No matter how powerful he was, he had to admit defeat when facing more than twenty masters of the Yulin Guard.
Concubine Jiang knew that there had been unrest in the palace these days. She was worried that the Eighteenth Prince was in danger, so she always kept him in mind. Who would have known that someone would really come to deal with them, mother and son.
Fortunately, the Yulin Guards were very capable. Looking at the fake Ah Huai who was tied up and had his arms removed, Concubine Jiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The fake Ah Huai also saw Concubine Jiang. He knew he was doomed to die. As he swallowed the poison, he said arrogantly, "Concubine Jiang, you bitch, don't be so complacent. The master will not fail. The master will make you pay a terrible price!"
After saying this, blood oozed from the corners of the fake Ah Huai's mouth, and he smiled and closed his eyes.
Concubine Jiang's face changed with fear, and the Yulin Guards immediately took the fake Ah Huai's body away to avoid scaring the delicate masters.
The emperor soon learned that the fake Ah Huai was dead. He snorted coldly: "Tear off his face and hang it on the wall together. Don't even think about dying with Ah Huai's face on."
The palace servant in charge of the corpse nodded.
The news of King Dongshan's conspiracy to treason and regicide was soon made known to the world. All the guards brought by King Dongshan were taken in and dispersed by people from the capital to prevent them from gathering together to cause trouble.
When checking the number of people, it was discovered that fifty people were missing.
People from the capital asked the person in charge what happened, and he just said that he followed King Dongshan into the capital and never came out again.
Everyone knew what was going on when they heard this. King Dongshan was dead, so how could they survive?
The body of Dongshan Wang De was still hanging on the city wall. They had all gone to see it and it was indeed their former master.
The rebellion of King Dongshan made them all inferior to others and they became the targets of bullying in the military camp.
But they can do nothing. The victors are the kings and the losers are the bandits. It has been like this since ancient times.
If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for following the wrong master.
Outside the city gate, on the first day of the corpse's exposure, many people gathered to watch. Among them was a tall man with graying hair, an unshaven beard, and wearing a conical hat, who joined the crowd in watching the excitement.
Looking at the two hanging bodies, he clenched his fists secretly and turned away before the soldiers noticed him.
I could hear the people cursing at me.
"He's so heartless, he actually killed the king!"
"Damn it! The emperor was so good to him, yet he actually wanted to rebel!"
"Thanks to the Emperor's wisdom, he saw through the schemes of this traitorous minister!"
"King Dongshan deserves death. No one from his clan shall be spared!"
"King Dongshan deserves death, beat him!"
Some people took stones and beat the corpses hanging on the city wall. They didn't even spare the dead bodies.
The man in the bamboo hat heard the sound of stones hitting corpses, and his face became terribly gloomy. "It's not your kingdom that I have seized, why are you so excited?"
A bunch of ants, you also want to vent your anger on me?
Just wait, when I come back, you will know how powerful I am.
Away from the crowd, Prince Dongshan arrived at the meeting place. Many people were waiting in the grove. When they saw him, they immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty!"
The gray-haired man took off his conical hat and revealed a face exactly the same as the one on the city wall. That one was a fake, and this one was the real King of Dongshan. He knew that the dog emperor was looking for him with bad intentions.
Fortunately, there was a plan to escape, and the substitute died in his place.
The dog emperor thought that he was the one who died. Hahaha, how could I die so easily? I am waiting to take the dog emperor's life myself.
"Let's go!" King Dongshan gave the order. He knew that the capital was not a place for him to stay. If his identity was exposed, the dog emperor would definitely do his best to capture him. He could only retreat first.
Failure this time does not mean failure in the future.
As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood.
Besides, aren’t those thousands of people staying in the capital?
They will come in handy one day.
......
On the emperor's side, having gotten rid of a major worry, he was in a good mood. He pretended to be a patient for a few days. In order to make it look realistic, the emperor ate and drank less and lost a lot of weight. Tonight he could eat and drink to his heart's content, and he also asked Shen Shoufu to accompany him to drink and eat meat.
Shen Shoufu; "......"
I just want to go home and sleep with my wife.
Because the emperor was in this mood, Shen Shoufu could only sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman, and after drinking three cups, he pretended to be drunk and stopped drinking.
The emperor snorted: "Shen Shoufu, you are relying on my favor to bully me, right?"
Shen Shoufu: “…”
Can't hear, drunk.
The emperor kicked Shen Shoufu a few times, and seeing that he was really drunk, he waved his hand: “Send Shen Shoufu back and let Madam Shen take good care of him. He will go to court tomorrow.”
The palace servants sent Shen Shoufu back. Madam Shen looked at Shen Shoufu, who was drunk, and immediately asked someone to help him go to the main courtyard. When she was about to get water for him to wash his face and feet, Shen Shoufu opened his eyes and grabbed Madam Shen's hand tightly, "Finally I'm back. How have you been these days, Madam?"
