"Father...Father?" Xiao Shen felt as if he had been struck by lightning, burnt on the outside and tender on the inside, and his mind was a mess, completely confused.
"Your Majesty? It's your Majesty. I'm here to see you, Your Majesty." When a white-haired veteran minister saw Emperor Wu, he burst into tears and runny nose with excitement.
Then all the officials saw the energetic Emperor Wu who was wearing a dragon robe.
"It's really the emperor, the emperor is fine..."
"Old minister, I see you, Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty."
"I just know that the Emperor is fine. That's great. The Emperor is fine..."
All the civil and military officials in the court were instantly excited, naturally excluding the officials who had just colluded with King Jing. They were already so shocked that they had no idea.
"Shen'er doesn't recognize me anymore?" Emperor Wu looked at him sharply, and then looked at the black-clothed guards around him, "What's going on? Are you taking action?"
When Liu Cheng and Guo Youwei saw the emperor in normal health, they immediately felt bad. Guo Youwei's mind was active and he soon realized that they had been tricked by the emperor. The emperor was playing a big game of chess.
He quickly came to Xiao Shen, frowned slightly at his stunned look, and reminded in a low voice, "Your Majesty, we have tens of thousands of troops waiting outside the city. You must not let go of your energy. , then all our previous efforts will be in vain."
When Qin Huaijin saw the emperor's arrival, he knew it. He yelled at the two fighting parties, "The Emperor is here, and he won't stop yet."
"No... we can't stop," Liu Cheng jumped out to stop him, with an eager look on his face. They can't lose, they must not lose, "He... he is fake, he is not the emperor, and the emperor is still here In the palace, he is still unconscious... Yes, the emperor is still unconscious. Who are you? How dare you pretend to be the emperor? Come on, get it for me."
Xiao Shen looked at Liu Cheng in disbelief, but Guo Youwei felt that Liu Cheng's reaction was very quick this time, "Your Majesty, this person dares to pretend to be the emperor, he should be punished!"
Xiao Shen saw the ferocity in Guo Youwei's eyes and calmed down. He looked at Emperor Wu with a complicated expression. Although he wanted to be emperor, he did not actually want to kill his father...
"If you dare to pretend to be the emperor, come and arrest me." Xiao Shen finally compromised. He had no other way to go. If he recognized the identity of Emperor Wu, would he... still be alive?
"Hehehe, King Jing has such good eyesight, he doesn't even recognize the emperor." Li Yuanqi laughed back.
Xiao Shen didn't look at Emperor Wu, "My father is still in a coma in the palace. This person... is an imposter."
Emperor Wu looked confused, "Do you really think you can win this time?"
Xiao Shen heard the words and said nothing.
Liu Cheng came quickly and said, "Your Majesty, let's get out of the palace as soon as possible. Our army is waiting for us." In this palace, they don't have such a big advantage. Fortunately, I was prepared, otherwise today would have been difficult.
"Yes, Your Majesty. Your Majesty's soldiers and horses are just outside the city. Whether it's the soldiers and horses of the Su family or the Jingnan Palace, water from afar can't save the fire that is close by. We are still sure of victory this time." Guo Youwei didn't either. Pretending to be dead again, at a time when life and death were at stake, he was rarely on the same front as Liu Cheng.
Xiao Shen stopped hesitating and was about to leave. Suddenly he remembered the queen who was still in the harem, "Mother, my queen mother is still in the palace."
"Your Majesty, the Queen will be fine. It's important for us to get out of the palace as soon as possible." Liu Cheng immediately advised him that there should be no delay at this time.
Guo Youwei glanced at him but didn't interrupt. Anyway, the queen was from the Liu family.
Xiao Shen looked at Liu Cheng with fixed eyes. Liu Cheng was so frightened that he didn't dare to look directly at him.
"Okay, let's go!" The queen mother is the queen of Daqing, and the father will not do anything to her. Besides, he will be back soon. Let the queen mother endure in the palace for two days. Then a group of black-clad guards escorted them away.
Seeing this, Qin Huaijin stepped forward to stop them, but was grabbed by Su Huan behind him, "Let them go."
Although Qin Huaijin didn't understand what it meant, he still stopped obediently.
Zhang Fu helped Emperor Wu get on the dragon chair. Emperor Wu looked at the two groups of people who were still fighting outside the palace gate. Xiao Shen's people were obviously at a disadvantage. Especially after Xiao Shen left, the morale of the army was unstable and they were quickly defeated. Come down.
Su Yu wore a bloody armor and entered the hall. The bloodthirsty aura on his body made all civil and military officials back down. "I see you, Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty. The traitors have all been killed. Please take a closer look, Your Majesty."
"Okay! General Su, please get up." Su Yu stood behind his grandfather without saying a word.
The emperor looked at the frightened faces in the hall. Xiao Shen had left, and Liu Cheng and Guo Youwei had also left. However, there were still nearly half of their party officials in the hall.
Emperor Wu glanced at Zhang Fu. Zhang Fu stepped forward and held a bright yellow booklet with dozens of names recorded on it. Every official who was named began to cry for his father and mother, begging the emperor for his life. Shouting that they were wronged...but they were quickly taken away.
After a while, more than half of the people in the hall were left. Emperor Wu sighed, "Every minister was shocked by what happened today. All of them will go back to their homes today. For the vacant seats, Mr. Zhang Ge and Mr. Li , Mrs. Lin, please prepare a preliminary list for me."
"Yes, Wei Chen obeys your order."
"Yes, Wei Chen obeys your order."
"Yes, Wei Chen obeys your order."
"The rest, General Zhengguo, old King Jingnan, will be left to you. I am exhausted, so I can retreat from the court."
The mood of the civil and military officials was up and down today. Except for a few who knew the truth, everyone else was frightened. They really wanted to go home quickly to calm down...
Qin Huaijin approached Su Yu and bumped into him, "Hey, we could have stopped King Jing just now, why did we let him go?"
"Let him go?" Su Yu smiled, "How could that happen? You are overthinking."
Qin Huaijin's mind was quick, "Is the lame man outside the city?"
Su Yu kicked him, "Who is lame?"
Qin Huaijin dodged with agility, "Ha! Let me tell you, how can a respectful king fight against you, a group of foxes that have become spirits? I am leaving, and my imperial guards are also going to clean up." "Then he left humming a little tune.
Su Yu: A fox that became a spirit? Damn it, isn't that calling them vixens? This bastard.
At this time, He Xin, who was covered in blood, slowly climbed up from the mass grave outside the palace. He wiped his forehead and said, "His grandma actually threw me here. It's really unlucky."
Then he looked around and said, "No one is coming to pick up grandpa."
Then he smelled a strange smell on his body. His face turned green and he almost vomited it out. It smelled so bad...
"Puch", a sudden laughter sounded.
At this moment, He Xin was not as timid as he was in the palace hall. His stern eyes were intimidating, "Who is that?" Several poisonous hidden weapons were fired straight at the place where the noise was made.
"Oh, Xiao Wu, I came to pick you up with good intentions, and you thank me like this?" Xiao Shisan looked at the hidden weapon on the tree trunk and was speechless. Fortunately, he hid quickly. But this kid has been practicing a lot over the years, and his skills are still so good.
