Princess of the auxiliary country

Chapter 473; Unknown

Princess Zhaode Huo Junyao's action shocked the entire capital city.

And with Princess Zhaode's attack on the capital, the truth that the Qin Palace tried so hard to conceal was slowly revealed.

For a moment, the entire capital was in an uproar, and countless rumors popped up like mushrooms after rain.

The common people at the bottom of society began to panic, and as a result, the capital city was no longer as peaceful as before.

As for whether Princess Zhaode's attack on the capital was right or wrong, in the eyes of the vast majority of people, it was not wrong. After all, the King of Qin rebelled and forced the emperor to abdicate, and imprisoned all the civil and military officials in the court. He was a traitor in himself.

Princess Zhaode attacked the capital, which meant she was serving the king and standing on the side of justice.

Of course, some people think that Princess Zhaode’s approach is too radical and may not only fail to save the emperor but also harm him.

In addition to the above two groups of people, there is another group of people who think that Princess Zhaode wants to replace her.

Anyway, people are saying all kinds of things, and the reputation of the Prince of Qin's Mansion has also deteriorated. Chaos has begun to appear in the capital, and the Prince of Qin's Mansion is now in a dilemma.

Not only did he have to think about how to deal with the matter of Princess Zhaode, but he also had to expend manpower to suppress the destabilizing factors within the capital.

After all, there are not only the royal family and civil and military ministers in the capital, but also many strongholds of aristocratic families. Now the lives and deaths of these people are all in the hands of King Qin.

How could they not think of ways to save themselves? Within just half a day, many people from aristocratic families began to spread the news.

These people have many tricks up their sleeves. Even if the King of Qin tried his best to stop them, there would always be loopholes.

The next day, the news that the King of Qin was rebelling and forcing the emperor to abdicate spread out of the capital and spread throughout the Yu Dynasty in a very fast manner.

The world was shocked.

Meanwhile, in the palace, the royal family and a number of civil and military officials who were under the strict supervision of the King of Qin also learned some of the situation outside through the silent infiltration and transmission of information by the aristocratic families.

This made the retired emperor, who had originally planned to issue an edict to allow the King of Qin to ascend the throne, hesitate.

Originally, he thought that with so many people involved, he couldn't let this go on. After discussing with Queen Shen and Emperor Zhaowu, who had regained some consciousness, he decided to appease the King of Qin first and try not to let the impact spread to the entire Yu Dynasty.

As for whether he can maintain his position after taking it, that is still unclear.

Now that he had heard the news outside, especially that Princess Zhaode had actually attacked the capital, and the news that King Qin had rebelled had already spread.

The retired emperor felt that it was inappropriate to issue an edict at this time.

Because people in the world are not fools, so what if they have this edict?
It was an established fact that the King of Qin rebelled and forced the emperor to abdicate, and he would never be able to justify it.

Therefore, it doesn’t matter whether the edict is written or not. It is better to delay the time as much as possible. Now that the matter has become a big deal, I believe that soon armies from all over the country will rush to the capital to defend the king.

"Second brother, this matter was caused by you. Although the King of Qin made a huge mistake this time, I still hope that you can spare his life in the future."

In the eyes of the retired emperor, this time it was because the King of Qin acted too quickly and they were caught off guard, which allowed the King of Qin to take advantage.

If a fight really broke out, even if the King of Qin sat on that position, he would never be a match for Emperor Zhaowu.

After all, the foundation is too weak. How much power does the Qin Palace have? Even if it has 300,000 troops in Xihu Pass, what can it do?
Compared with the entire empire, it was nothing. Emperor Zhaowu had been the emperor for so many years, and he had people arranged by him in almost every part of the Yu Dynasty. The army of the Yu Dynasty except Xihu Pass was under his control. Moreover, the King of Qin was now accused of rebellion.

Whether in terms of power or reputation, the King of Qin is in an absolutely weak position.

Emperor Zhaowu smiled bitterly and said, "Father, I am willing to let him go, but I am worried that I may not be able to wait until that time."

This time, the King of Qin was mainly seeking revenge for his father and taking back the throne of their lineage.

Since it is unlikely that he will be able to keep his seat on the throne, can't he avenge his father's murder?
In the current situation, Emperor Zhaowu is like meat on the chopping board. How can he have the qualifications to decide the other party's life or death?

"Humph, you are really cruel. You actually attacked your elder brother just for the throne."

When Emperor Zhaowu just woke up, the retired emperor asked him about what happened that year without any hesitation.

Emperor Zhaowu was shocked at first. He originally thought that this secret might never be known by anyone in his lifetime, and he had already killed all those who knew about it.

How come it is exposed now?

But after being shocked, he calmed down and told some hidden secrets that the emperor and everyone else did not know.

In fact, he had no choice at the time, and he was not the first to kill. It can only be said that he was forced by Prince Yide.

At that time, the world was in chaos. He led his army to fight in the south and the north, and his achievements became greater and greater, which made Prince Yide feel a sense of crisis.

Even though he didn't say or do anything on the surface, he was secretly plotting many things against Emperor Zhaowu.

It is even said that there were several times when Emperor Zhaowu encountered fatal crises on the battlefield, and Prince Yide was behind all of this, with the purpose of killing someone with a borrowed knife and making him die on the battlefield.

Emperor Zhaowu was very clear about these things, but at that time the Yu Dynasty had just been established and had only established a small foundation.

Nothing has happened yet, but the two sons of the retired emperor have already started fighting each other to the death. Wouldn't this be laughed at by all the heroes?
Then how can the Xiao family win the hearts of the people? Therefore, he did not intend to bring these things to the table, but it was also impossible to just let it go.

So he also began to make plans in secret, just in case.

But he really didn't expect that when he was ordered to go out again to encircle and suppress the remaining two kings, Prince Yide actually dared to target him.

Moreover, it happened at the critical moment when the Yu Dynasty unified the world. Didn't he know that this concerned the future destiny of the Yu Dynasty?

Even at this time, Prince Yide was still only thinking about his future position, and even almost killed him.

If they fail to take down the two kings in one fell swoop, it will take who knows how long it will take for the Yu Dynasty to find such an opportunity again in the future. At such a critical moment, Prince Yi De has no sense of the overall situation, which makes him very angry.

So, I started planning right away, thinking, since you want this position so much, I will make sure you never sit on it in your entire life.

This led to the following events. Of course, one thing that cannot be denied is that Emperor Zhaowu himself also had great ambitions for that position.

In fact, this is not wrong. After all, that is the supreme imperial power. Throughout history, there are countless people who have fought for this thing.

However, compared with Prince Yide, Emperor Zhaowu still had some sense of the overall situation. At least he did not want to be as unscrupulous as Prince Yide, who did not care at all whether the Yu Dynasty could unify the world. Or perhaps he was confident that he would find opportunities later.
