Chapter 139: In the past you slaughtered all my descendants, today I will kill all the royal family
The shouting and yelling became louder and louder, the sounds of swords and sabers were getting closer and closer, and the prince's expression became more and more nervous.
"Kill, kill all the rebels, leaving no one alive."
A row of archers stood on the roof, shooting long arrows, reaping lives and splashing blood.
The fourth prince's eyes were bloodshot, and he shouted loudly, "Save the emperor! Rush in to protect him."
"Father, I am here to save you. Please hold on."
"Prince, you are a traitor. Your father has valued you so much. You have betrayed the emperor's grace and deserve to die."
The prince also cursed inside, "You are the traitor. You have been secretly colluding with the Three Thousand Battalion for a long time. Today you broke into the palace without permission and committed treason. You will be killed without mercy."
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. He pushed Concubine Li in front of everyone and said, "Fourth brother, your mother is here, why don't you surrender now?"
The fourth prince's eyes were red when he saw his mother covered in blood. "Prince, what did you do to my mother? Are you crazy? If the emperor knew, he would never forgive you."
The prince was very impatient, "Either lay down your weapons and surrender, or your mother will die. Your choice."
"You dare not. If anything happens to your mother, all the people in the world will despise you. You..."
The prince thrust his sword at Concubine Li, who screamed, "Ah."
"Mother concubine."
Concubine Li is also a ruthless character, "Leave me alone."
The prince sneered, "As expected, mother and son are both cold-blooded and ruthless. Concubine Li, you poisoned our father and made him unconscious. You have committed such a heinous crime. I will never tolerate you."
In front of everyone, he stabbed Concubine Li in the heart with a sword. Concubine Li screamed and died with her eyes open. "Listen, soldiers. Protect the emperor and capture the traitor. You will be rewarded today."
The fourth prince shed tears of blood, his mother died!
"Kill the prince, and you will be offered a silver coin and a title of marquis."
There will always be brave men under a huge reward. The fighting between the two sides became more intense, with blood and flesh flying everywhere.
"Oh no, Miss Lin secretly opened the palace gate."
The prince was so angry that he almost vomited blood. Lin Jingshu, this bitch, actually betrayed him!
The Fourth Prince and his men attacked, and the hall was in chaos and screaming. Everyone was running around like headless flies to escape, and it was a mess. Ning Zhiwei and Rong Jing took advantage of the chaos to rush to the inner hall with a clear goal of knocking out the two guards guarding the door, dragging the guards aside, pushing the door open and slipping in.
On the dragon bed, the emperor was still unconscious, and everyone around him had run away.
Ning Zhiwei was a little surprised, "Why isn't the chief eunuch guarding here?"
Rong Jing approached the dragon bed and took a few glances. Suddenly his expression changed, "This is a substitute."
The emperor's substitute? In other words, this was a plot set up by the emperor?
My goodness, Ning Zhiwei couldn't help but give the most insincere blessings to those princes who had broken their heads, wishing them good luck.
This is an internal struggle within the royal family. The emperor doesn't even feel sorry for his son, let alone others. Forget about turning the tide. Saving your life is the most important thing.
"Let's hide behind the bed." Rong Jing pulled her behind the bed.
Ning Zhiwei shook his head slightly, pointed to the top of the beam, took out a flying claw from his arms, swung it with his hand and hung it accurately on the beam.
"Peony, you go first."
Without saying a word, Shaoyao grabbed the rope and climbed up swiftly, found a place to hang on the beam and hide herself.
Ning Zhiwei looked at Rong Jing, "Is it okay?"
Rong Jing was silent for a moment, "I'll try."
He was just a weak scholar who was not even capable of tying a chicken. He had a good brain but weak limbs. Ning Zhiwei saw this and shook his head, "Forget it, follow me."
Ning Zhiwei pulled the rope with one hand and grabbed Rong Jing's clothes with the other, and climbed up with a whoosh.
Rong Jing was stunned, "How come you are so skillful?"
Ning Zhiwei had a complicated look on his face. He took down the bow and arrow and pointed it at the entrance of the palace. "This is one of the necessary lessons for men in the Ning family. I was raised as a man since I was a child."
The men in the Ning family are proficient in archery, horse riding, and the eighteen martial arts.
Rong Jing sighed silently. The Ning family was truly great. Every generation of children started practicing martial arts since childhood, and after acquiring good martial arts skills, they went to the battlefield. Generation after generation, they defended the territory of Da Qi with their blood and lives.
The situation changes rapidly, but the world remains unchanged. In the outer hall, the Fourth Prince leads his men to attack and control the situation. The Crown Prince, who was so high and mighty just now, becomes a prisoner.
The prince's face turned pale, and he stared at Lin Jingshu angrily, "Why did you do that?"
Lin Jingshu's eyes were crazy. "You knew that Ning Zhiwei and I didn't get along, but you still let her be the imperial concubine, letting her dominate me, and you said I was unworthy! You deserve to die, and she deserves to die too, all of you should die."
She had nothing left but one thought: revenge!
The prince was one of the culprits who brought her to this state, and Ning Zhiwei was another.
"Fourth Prince, I only have one request, which is to kill Ning Zhiwei."
"Okay." This was exactly what the Fourth Prince wanted. "Come here, drag Ning Zhiwei out and strangle him on the spot."
Lin Jingshu laughed happily and ostentatiously. No matter how powerful he was, he would still die in front of her.
"Report, Ning Zhiwei was not found."
Lin Jingshu's smile froze. "How is this possible? I'm sure she's in the main hall."
The fourth prince looked around and shouted, "Who saw her? Hand her over."
Everyone huddled in a corner, looking at each other. They were only concerned with escaping and really had no idea.
"Search."
Prime Minister Duan was moved and stood up at the right time, "Fourth Prince, the most important thing right now is how to deal with the aftermath and appease the people."
The fourth prince is actually very mediocre. If he didn't have a favorite mother, he would have been neglected by the emperor long ago. "Please ask Prime Minister Duan to teach me."
If he wants to seize the throne, it is impossible for him to kill all these high-ranking officials. The forces behind them are complicated and should not be underestimated.
If they help him, he will be able to ascend to the throne smoothly.
Prime Minister Duan thought for a while and said, "First, issue an order saying that the rebellion has been suppressed and everything is back to normal."
"Secondly, have everyone stay where they are and not move around, and clean up the battlefield."
"Secondly, let the civil and military officials nominate a temporary regent to stabilize the current situation."
The Fourth Prince's eyes lit up. This was great. He could legitimately become the regent, and when his father passed away, he would be able to succeed to the throne naturally.
"The Prime Minister is still the one who has the best chance of success."
The two of them simultaneously ignored the emperor in the inner hall, and under the banner of rescuing him, they did not even look at him.
As they were talking, there was a commotion outside. The Fourth Prince was very annoyed. "What's going on outside?"
A loud roar suddenly sounded, "Listen everyone inside, you are surrounded."
There was chaos in the palace, and the Fourth Prince's expression changed. "Who?"
The subordinate who went to check came back in a hurry, "It's the remnant of the royal family of the previous dynasty, Su Haozhi."
The fourth prince was full of ambition at the time. "You've come just in time. Let's go and kill them all. No one should be left alive."
The subordinate's face turned pale, "He instigated a rebellion against the Shenji Camp."
Everyone gasped. The Shenji Battalion was one of the three major battalions of the capital's defense force. It was a special force in charge of firearms and possessed extremely lethal firearms such as muskets and explosives.
"How could he do that?"
Su Haozhi said proudly, "The commander of the Shenji Camp was originally my retainer."
This is the most important move in Su Hao's plan.
To rebel, one not only needs means and strategy, but also soldiers. He placed people in the army, and this game started two hundred years ago.
After enduring humiliation for two hundred years, today, the truth will be revealed!
Two hundred years ago, you slaughtered all my descendants. Today, I will kill all members of the royal family of Da Qi!
