Chapter 1078 Return to Dust
The rebellion of the Northland Xuantian Sect was like throwing a pebble into the turbulent waves. The splashes disappeared quickly before the world could see them.

Now, it is the three kings of Jiangnan who are making noise and causing shock in the world. However, except for the initial stab in the back of the imperial court that was caught off guard, they seem to be unable to make any achievements.

As His Highness Taisun ascended the throne, and news of Luo Fuzi's expedition with the army came one after another, Jiangnan, which was already difficult to make progress, was now even more hindered by the three rebel kings.

King Wu, the leader of the three kings, has sadly discovered that they have unknowingly lost everyone's support. As Luo Fuzi's message to crusade against the rebels spread to Jiangnan, they were unable to borrow any external support.

The aristocratic families that once firmly opposed them still did not waver in their stance. The once wavering grassroots now all turned to the imperial court.

And what these people said is reasonable. Luo Fuzi represents the court and orthodoxy. It has been 200 years since the Luo Dynasty was founded, and all the scholars in the world have long since returned. They are complying with God's will, otherwise they would still follow Jiangnan to rebel against the king and become a traitor. Thief?

Taking ten thousand steps back, even if they are really dissatisfied with the court and want to start a rebellion, the three kings of Jiangnan are the worst choice.

Anyone with a discerning eye in the world can see that the three kings of Jiangnan are just grasshoppers after the autumn, and they will not be around for long. Master Luo only brought five thousand soldiers and horses to Jiangnan. Wherever he went, the common people and gentry lined the streets to greet him.

With just a few sharp words and a few letters, the old master easily won the support of the entire Jiangnan gentry, and also divided some factions within the three anti-kings.

Seeing that his chances of winning were slim, King Wu called King Run and King Qu to his mansion that day, and the three people in the same bad mood met again.

"King Wu, the current situation is extremely unfavorable to us. Do you have any other ways to maneuver?" King Run said straight to the point.

Both King Run and King Qu regretted it to varying degrees at this moment. In a sense, they were coerced into raising troops. It was just because they had responded to King Wu's rebellion rhetoric beforehand that they were unable to get off the horse.

And King Wu also knew that the two people's positions were not firm. When the critical moment came, the probability of the other party turning against each other should be quite high.

So, King Wu said to the two of them: "Don't worry, you two, we haven't reached the end of the road yet. Beidi - as long as the prince takes action, the court will inevitably be in chaos because it is attacked on both sides. By then, the wise people in the world will Be the first to respond.”

Although King Wu tried his best to comfort the two of them, it was obvious that they had heard the same words many times. King Qu said with an ugly face: "King Wu, now that the imperial army is approaching, how long can we hold on?"

"Does King Qu think he still has a way out?" King Wu's voice suddenly became louder, and he asked sternly: "Did you receive a letter from the court asking you to surrender?"

Prince Qu's face turned green and white, and he said bluntly: "Yes! I received a letter from Luo Yuanjing. He promised that as long as I abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side, I will only lose my title after the incident, and I can still be a wealthy and idle man for the rest of my life. "

King Run did not speak, but his eyes wandered, and he had obviously received a letter with similar content.

King Wu cursed loudly: "Confused! What do you think we are doing? This is the crime of decapitation! Do you believe Luo Yuanjing's few words?"

King Qu had a sullen face and said nothing, but King Run said in a low voice: "The old master is a great scholar of the world, and I believe what he says."

"you--!"

King Wu glared with angry eyes and slashed the two of them severely. Then suddenly the anger on his face suddenly disappeared, and he showed a strange smile: "You are right. The character I have spent my whole life building, this is The king also believes it." Seeing King Wu's behavior, the two of them were stunned. Before they could react, they suddenly felt the world spinning. King Run forced himself to stand up, but his legs gave way and fell to the ground.

King Qu also couldn't lie down. He grabbed a corner of the table and said through gritted teeth: "King Wu! What on earth do you want to do! You and I are like grasshoppers on a rope at this moment. You If they attack us, do you think you can deal with the imperial army by yourself!"

"Facing the imperial army? Hahaha -" King Wu looked up to the sky and laughed, then looked at the two of them sarcastically and said: "Now you are using these words to fool me. Just the three of us, this place The city can’t even be defended for a month! What kind of response can we talk about! Ridiculous!”

On the other side, King Run felt weak all over, as if he was drunk. He was panicking in his heart and couldn't help but apologize: "King Wu! It's my fault! I have no intention of surrendering. Please let me go." , let’s find a way to deal with Luo Yuanjing together!”

"Oh, no need."

King Wu sneered, and then mocked the two of them: "You two still don't understand what happened. Even your useless snack like a decoration has received the master's letter of persuasion to surrender. How do you think that I, the king, have not received it? "

Both of them were startled. King Qu said in a somewhat disbelieving tone: "You - aren't you the mastermind of the rebellion? How could the court be willing to let you go?"

"Why can't-?" King Wu laughed loudly, and then said: "All three of us are destined to die. Do you still think that one of us has more ways to survive than the other? In the eyes of the court, we are all dead!"

The two kings were so frightened that they dared not speak. Then they saw King Wu knocking the wine on the table to the ground with a slap, then picking up a bucket of kerosene from the corner and starting to pour it over the entire room.

The more they watched, the more frightened they became. King Run was so frightened that he burst into tears: "King Wu! Don't think too hard! We are all blood relatives of the royal family, relatives of His Highness the Grand Sun! As long as we open the city and surrender, we may not have no way to survive!"

"Yes!" Seeing King Wu pouring the whole house on fire, King Qu was so frightened that he trembled: "There must be a way! I still have a few friends in the court, and I wrote a letter asking them to Please write a memorial to beg for mercy on our behalf! King Wu! Stop it!"

But King Wu turned a deaf ear to the two men's pleas for mercy. After pouring the kerosene, he picked up the candle lamp on the table, took off the cap, and then said calmly: "Stop struggling, I have already said that we are all There is one way to die, but there are other ways to say how to die and how to die.”

Meeting the horrified looks of the two men, King Wu chuckled: "I cannot escape the death penalty, but my family still has a way to live. Don't you want to know what the Master said in the letter to me? "

After all, the two kings were not extremely stupid. After King Run thought about it, he felt as if he was struck by lightning. King Qu even yelled: "King Wu! Are you trying to use our lives to earn a living for your family? You—you bastard!”

"Not just you, but also the lives of your two families."

King Wu spoke indifferently, which made the two people's expressions change. He said slowly: "I will deal with you all and save His Highness Taisun the trouble. Master will naturally give my family a way to survive, and we will It's the same as what you said, there's nothing wrong with them being rich and idle in the future, at least they can still live."

"you you!"

The two kings were so angry that their faces were distorted. King Wu picked up the remaining wine on the table and drank it all in one gulp. Then he threw the candle to the ground. Under the guidance of the kerosene, the entire room was suddenly engulfed in flames.

Outside the city, the old master watched a thick smoke rising into the sky from the city. He sighed, and then said to the general beside him: "The overall situation has been decided, and we can send victory documents to the capital."
