Chapter 223 The great revenge is avenged
The emperor's head was buzzing as he watched.
I couldn't help but yell, "Idiot, kill Ji Chen first."
The guards heard the emperor's roar and turned their attention to Ji Chen.
He was about to attack Ji Chen but was unexpectedly stabbed by his companion who was unable to defend himself.
In no time.
The guards suffered heavy casualties, and the remaining ones finally stopped attacking.
Upon seeing this, the emperor quickly spoke up, "Kill Ji Chen immediately."
Commander Wei immediately stepped forward with his sword.
The emperor breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. Fortunately, his commander-in-chief was still normal.
But the next second, his smile froze on his face.
He watched his commander walk up to Ji Chen, kneel on one knee, and call Ji Chen "Master".
He was stunned.
He had trained Commander Wei for so long.
Is he Ji Chen's man? ! !
The personal guards he was so proud of had already been figured out by Ji Chen's people?
He was so angry that his head was dizzy. "You, you, you actually..."
I was so angry that I couldn't speak.
Ji Chen looked at him with a half-smile, "Let's see, today it's you who dies, or me who dies."
His preparations over the past ten years go beyond this.
The emperor was so angry that he almost gritted his teeth. "Where are the imperial guards? Are they all dead? Can't they hear the noise here?"
Just as he finished speaking, a figure stumbled in.
He is the Southern Commander of his Royal Guards.
"Your Majesty, this is bad. Twenty thousand soldiers have broken into the palace and are coming to kill us."
The emperor's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.
The number of the imperial guards and personal guards he left in the palace was no more than 30,000. The 10,000 personal guards, led by the commander-in-chief, were probably Ji Chen's men.
Now another 20,000 troops have broken in. How long can the Royal Guards hold out?
Commander Nan hadn't finished speaking yet.
"We...we have a traitor in our ranks. He's already attacked quite a few people. We can't defend ourselves against him."
Upon hearing this, the emperor almost vomited blood.
How could Ji Chen's hands be so long-reaching that he actually arranged his own people among his personal guards and imperial guards?
He glanced at Ji Chen, who was as still as a mountain, and gritted his teeth. The person was right in front of him, but he couldn't move.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Let Liu Wen bring troops to support us."
Commander Nan spoke tremblingly, "Your Majesty, in addition to the 20,000 people who broke into the palace, there are... another 20,000 people surrounding the palace. We... can't get the message out."
Commander Nan’s words shocked the emperor so much that he was speechless for a long time.
Is he trapped in the palace like this?
We have a large army at our disposal, but we can't even get the message out.
His eyelids twitched unconsciously, and he looked at the nonchalant Ji Chen, "So you came prepared."
"I will naturally not do anything that I am not sure of."
The emperor glared at Ji Chen and then turned his gaze to the ministers who were hiding aside.
He said, "General Song, why don't you send an order for your 200,000-man army to come to support us?"
He just couldn't believe that just tens of thousands of people wanted to trap him to death.
General Song's 200,000 troops were his private army, but he was the emperor and the whole world belonged to him, so how could he not use those 200,000 troops?
Thinking of this, his eyes turned sinister as he looked at Ji Chen. "Just wait, I will grind you to dust and scatter your ashes as a warning to the world."
General Song, who was named, took a step forward slowly:
"Your Majesty, since the Imperial Palace has been surrounded, my message cannot be spread. Moreover, I promised His Royal Highness Prince Xiao that I would help him slay the traitors and restore justice. How can I go back on my word?"
The emperor stared at General Song in a daze.
Ji Chen chuckled, "My Royal Highness, please don't call the wrong person. General Song is my wife's grandfather, so how could he obey my Royal Highness's orders?"
There is a sense of boasting in the tone.
Only then did the emperor remember Ji Chen and Shi Xiaoxiao's marriage.
His face turned pale, and he knew that Ji Chen's plan to marry Shi Xiaoxiao was definitely not a good thing.
So here it is!
He glared at Ji Chen fiercely and his eyes fell on the other ministers.
"My dear ministers, are you also going to stand behind King Xiao and help him commit atrocities?"
The ministers who agreed with Ji Chen looked at each other and stepped forward to stand alongside General Song.
"Your Majesty, it's not that we want to stand behind Prince Xiao, but I believe there's nothing wrong with His Royal Highness killing the traitor. Those who kill the king and seize the throne are not worthy of our loyalty."
The emperor stood up angrily, then sat down again in frustration.
He was a great emperor, but he was abandoned by his minister Shui Lingling.
No one stood on his side.
Even his sons stood by and watched.
I'm afraid he is just hoping that he will die soon so that he can rush to grab the throne.
Suddenly, a feeling of sadness surged in his heart, and he stared at Ji Chen unwillingly.
"I should have killed you at the beginning."
It's a pity that he escaped the disaster in the past, and now he comes to seek revenge.
Ji Chen said calmly, "It's a pity that you didn't kill me and gave me a chance to grow."
The corners of his mouth curled slightly, his eyes moving, "Don't worry, my royal brother. Even if you're gone, Daqi will still belong to the Ji family. No one will be sad for you. After all, if anyone feels sad for you, it would be disrespectful to the late emperor. You don't have to worry about your funeral. When you die, I will throw your body into a mass grave to feed the wild dogs. There will be no one to collect your body, so there is no need to struggle anymore."
General Song's mouth twitched as he listened to Ji Chen's words.
His grandson-in-law has a sharp tongue, a smart brain, and great martial arts skills. I wonder if Xiaoxiao can get along with him.
It was quite a spectacle to see the emperor's face turning green and blue from anger.
Ji Chen raised his hand lightly, "Catch it."
The voice just fell.
The five men who were originally protecting the emperor turned around and put their knives on the emperor's neck.
This……
After experiencing betrayal again and again, the emperor still could not accept the betrayal of his own guards.
He was clearly protecting the people around him just now, but in the blink of an eye, he stabbed him.
He couldn't hold back and spat out a mouthful of blood.
His eyes were red, and his words were fierce: "Ji Chen, you will suffer retribution, and you will not die a good death..."
With a "puff", a long sword pierced into his body before he could finish his words.
The blood flowing out of the emperor's mouth became more and more, and his vision became blurred.
Ji Chen looked at him and said, "You will be the only one who will die a miserable death. Go down and confess your sins to your father."
As he spoke, he stirred the sword in his hand, and blood gushed out from the holes in the emperor's body.
He thought of his mother, his father, and his younger sister who had just taken shape.
He avenged them.
But he still lost them forever, and revenge did not make him feel very happy.
He slowly stirred the sword in his hand, watching the person in front of him lose his life breath bit by bit.
His eyes were filled with fierceness and viciousness.
The blood from the sword flowed down the hilt to his hand, bright red and dazzling.
He didn't pull back his sword until the emperor died.
He took out a handkerchief and casually wiped the blood off the sword.
This scene shocked all the ministers and several princes.
I didn’t expect that Prince Xiao (the emperor’s uncle) could be so evil when killing people without even blinking an eye.
The pleasure and ruthlessness in his eyes gave people goosebumps unconsciously.
I can't believe it. The emperor is gone just like that?
