Jimo
Royal palace
Since this month, the armies of the kings have been defeated like a mountain, and the entire Jimo city is in panic.

When the troops of the two kings of Wu and Chu were besieging Suiyang of the Liang State, they were cut off by Zhou Yafu and had to return to the court, but Zhou Yafu took advantage of the situation to pursue them. Hundreds of thousands of Wu and Chu allied forces were killed and their armor was thrown away. Wu Wang Liu Bi fled When Dantu was trapped and killed by the king of Dongou, Liu Wu, the king of Chu, committed suicide immediately when he saw that the situation was over.

At the same time, Luan Bu led the elite Han soldiers to aid Linzi, the state of Qi. The two kings, Zichuan and Zichuan, were killed in the pursuit of the Han soldiers, and only Liu Xiongqu, the king of Jiaodong, escaped back to Jimo by chance.

Today, only Zhao is still resisting in the Seven Kingdoms, but it is heard that Li Ji and Luan Bu are joining forces to besiege Handan, but the Xiongnu, who had promised to send troops, have not moved for a long time, and Zhao is already dead.

"Ugh……"

After digesting the news, Wang Taihao let out a long sigh, feeling very worried in his heart: "My royal family of Liaodong joined the rebel army of the Seven Kingdoms and helped the rebel army of the Seven Kingdoms attack the imperial court. Now the army of the Seven Kingdoms has been defeated. How can I do that?"

"The head of the family is worried that the imperial court will pursue our Liaodong royal family's joining the rebels?" At this time, Wang Yue, who was tidying up his things, asked casually.

"Exactly..." Wang Taihao replied truthfully.

"Didn't the Patriarch arrange for Tai Yang to go overseas to find the Wa Island mentioned in the ancestor's legacy? If the imperial court really wants to destroy my royal family, the worst thing is to hide overseas."

"Besides, Your Majesty's Concubine Tang is Tang Daniu's younger sister, so she will definitely speak well for us in front of Your Majesty."

Wang Yue was not afraid at all, and the Tang Daniu she was talking about was a beggar that the Wang family had favored in Xu Township before, and later the beggar's younger sister, Tang Xiaoming, was favored by the emperor and became a concubine.

Therefore, Tang Daniu returned to Xu Township in plain clothes and brocade, and presented ten yi gold to the royal family of Liaodong, and left a sentence "The kindness of a drop of water will be repaid by the spring".

Since then, the Wang family and Tang Daniu have been on good terms, and Wang Taihao also gave several beautiful maids from the Wang family to Tang Daniu, in order to curry favor with the brother of the most favored concubine, and hope that his sister can help in the court in the future .

"Having said that, I'm afraid that the emperor will not listen to the good words and insists on killing our Wang family. At that time, our Wang family members could escape, but our foundation that has been operating in Liaodong for decades could not escape. Tens of thousands The serfs in Jiji, the tens of thousands of hectares of fertile land in Luoyueyuan, salt fields, fishing grounds, blacksmith shops, fishermen, craftsmen, stables, royal gardens, these are all accumulated by our ancestors for decades, how can we give up lightly?"

During the conversation between the two, Zhang Long entered the room, knelt down to Wang Taihao and said respectfully, "My lord, the king is looking for you and Master Wang Yue."

"Ok?"

Wang Taihao responded lightly, and saw a fat black man breaking into the door, it was Jiaodong King Liu Xiongqu who had escaped from the Linzi battlefield by chance.

"My concubine! Let's take a boat and flee to Liaodong for refuge." The first thing King Jiaodong rushed in was his favorite Wang Yue, and after seeing Wang Taihao beside Wang Yue, he ordered in the tone of a superior: "Oh? My son Taihao is also here. That's just right. You lead your royal family's private soldiers to pack up the valuables in the palace and load them into the carriage. When you arrive in Xu Township, you load them into the boat, and then go to Liaodong with the widow. .”

however……

Clang!
"Old dog, who is your son?"

Wang Taihao, who had been docile until now, suddenly turned his face and drew his sword against King Jiaodong's neck. The guards in the palace ran away early after hearing that the front line was defeated. Now it is the royal family's private soldiers who control the palace, so Wang Taihao just Dare to do so.

"My son Taihao, you, you, you, why are you like this?" King Jiaodong obviously didn't expect that his adopted son would suddenly turn his face, and instantly lose the majesty of the superior just now, leaving only panic and fear.

"Bold traitor! I, Wang Taihao, are loyal and good men. How dare you slander me? Today, I will present your head to His Majesty as a token of our Liaodong royal family's utter loyalty to the imperial court!" After the reprimand, he stabbed the neck of Jiaodong King Liu Xiongqu with a sword.

"you you!"

"Uh-"

King Jiaodong backed up a few steps and wanted to escape, but was easily chased by Wang Taihao. His neck was pierced by a long sword, blood gushed from the opening in his throat, and a blood mist rose, dyeing the pillars in the palace red.

After killing King Jiaodong, Wang Taihao cut off his head, put it in a small box, and smiled at Wang Yue, who was very calm, "Auntie, I killed your husband, and you don't hate me?"

"Patriarch, you are joking. The King of Jiaodong is just a tool for my royal family. At the beginning, my father married me to him only to use his power in Jiaodong Kingdom to facilitate my royal family's trade in Jiaodong. Now the Seven Kingdoms have been defeated. It’s time for this tool to play its last bit.”

Wang Yue's awareness is very high. Under the personal and careful education of her ancestor Wang Kang, she herself has become a tool of the family. She can sacrifice everything for the family. When she heard that Wang Kang wanted to marry her to the ugly and fat King Jiaodong, She didn't hesitate at all, and now that the new owner killed King Jiaodong, she didn't hesitate at all.

Reminiscent of his ancestor Wang Kang once advising him that he must be loyal to the court, could it be that his ancestors had long anticipated the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms and the inevitable failure of the Seven Kingdoms?

"Grandfather Wang Kang, what kind of person are you? Under your education, my aunt can give up her happiness, and under your education, my grandmother can give up her own son."

Wang Taihao thinks that he does not have the ability of his ancestor Wang Kang, and cannot educate the children of the family to be selfless tools who can sacrifice everything for the family. In the past few months, when dealing with some family affairs, he has faced the intrigues and internal power struggles of the children of the family. , often feel that there is more than enough energy.

"Report to the lord! The subordinates have captured all the concubines and children of King Jiaodong!"

While Wang Taihao was still lamenting the greatness of his ancestors, Li Xi, his personal soldier who had just been promoted not long ago, entered the hall and knelt at his feet to report.

"Woooooo-"

"Let go of me, I am the son of Jiaodong Kingdom, how dare you insult me ​​like this?"

The family of King Jiaodong was tied up by a group of soldiers and wept constantly, and when they saw Liu Xiongqu's headless body.

"Your Majesty!"

"Father!"

"Wang Taihao, your royal family is one of the five royal families bestowed by the king, how dare you commit such a crime?!"

"The traitor of the Wang family! You harmed my father, and I want you to pay for it!"

The concubines and children of King Jiaodong stared, unable to believe what was happening before them, and one of the more mature young men even yelled at Wang Taihao.

"His Royal Highness! You scolded well! Today I will use your head to dedicate to the imperial court, and clear the grievances of participating in the rebellion for my royal family!"

However, Wang Taihao didn't care about such abuse at all. Becoming the adopted son of Jiaodong Wang was for the development of the Liaodong Wang family, and killing the young and old of Jiaodong Wang's family was also for the Liaodong Wang family, but the methods were different.

After finishing speaking, he ordered Li Xi and other soldiers: "Pull all the sons of the rebellious king Liu Xiongqu, and send the concubines, daughters and granddaughters to Liaodong for disposal in the future."

"promise!"

All the soldiers agreed, and then raised their swords and killed King Jiaodong's sons.

"King Thief! You must die! Ahh!!!"

"Wang Taihao, your royal family is also involved in the affairs of the Seven Kingdoms, even if we are all killed, the imperial court will not let your royal family go! Ah—"

"My lord, don't kill me, don't kill me, I am willing to go to Liaodong to be a cow or a horse!"

"Brother Wang, what are you doing?! We in Jiaodong have no soft bones! We would rather die standing up than live on our knees!"

"Sister Wang, I, I just want to live, I'm still young, I don't want to die yet, woo woo woo—"

"what--"

"Uh--"

"puff!"

The bloody massacre was staged in the Jiaodong Palace. The once glorious King of Jiaodong is now...completely extinct!
These noble princesses of the Jiaodong Kingdom who could have married princes and generals will also become the rewards of the Liaodong royal family to the soldiers.
