Long live Emperor Wu!

"Then what should we do? Are we just going to watch people's hearts disintegrate? ... I don't know what kind of unscrupulous guy made up such a lie, and the fire from heaven came down?" Zhang Shuyin muttered angrily.

Chen Shuozhen said in a sonorous tone:

"No matter what others say, let's advise from the bottom of our hearts! Whatever I think, others will think. Now I am only focused on revenge. My sister cannot die in vain!

I don't believe that a blood feud can be deceived by two words of "Sky Fire"? !
And... if I win, I will no longer have to worry about being treated like an ant.If you lose, you will most likely die, and you will be reincarnated into a good family in your next life!No loss at all! "

……

……

Two months later, Li Ke followed Governor Fang's army and entered the city gate of Qingxi County in Muzhou.

Outside the city gate, corpses were piled up like a mountain. Most of them were in rags and had ragged bones. Some of them had their eyes open and gnashing their teeth until they died.

These are the ones who fight to the end.

He had been here for two months, and he had been trying to persuade him to surrender for almost two months, using the rumors of Sky Fire to counteract the rumors that Chen Shuo was really the Mysterious Girl of the Nine Heavens.

When the battle actually took place, the two states encircled the east and west, and the fight took only ten days from the border of Muzhou to Qingxi County.

The more she lost, the more people who followed her surrendered and ran away, almost without wasting much strength. It was not until they finally reached Qingxi County that another fierce battle began.

Before these people died, they were determined to die.

Li Ke and his personal guards also participated in this fierce battle, but they won. Looking at the enemy on the opposite side, they did not feel much joy.

He looked away from the corpse on the roadside, pulled the reins, and quickly went inside.

When they arrived at the Qingxi County Hall, someone tied up a woman wearing armor and forced her to kneel down in the hall.

Li Ke looked carefully at the woman with her head lowered, full of curiosity, and asked:

"Are you Chen Shuozhen?"

Chen Shuozhen also raised his head. Seeing that he had an extraordinary bearing and was followed by many personal guards. The governor of Yangzhou was standing behind him with respectful expressions. She narrowed her eyes and guessed:

"Are you the emperor?"

Li Ke was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said:

"No, I am King Wu, why is Your Majesty here?"

Unexpectedly, Chen Shuozhen laughed miserably at himself and said through gritted teeth:

"So many people have starved to death in Muzhou, shouldn't he come and take a look?! So many people in Muzhou have died, and his empire is about to be overthrown, shouldn't he come and take a look?!
I want to see the emperor!I have something to ask him face to face! "

Seeing how arrogant she was, King Wu Li Ke frowned slightly, bringing with him a bit of evil spirit.

The Yangzhou governor behind him spoke for him:
"Who do you think you are when you dare to rebel against a thief? Your Majesty, you are the kind of person you can meet whenever you want!"

Chen Shuozhen's bun was loose, some dry yellow hair was messy and covered his eyes, and his face was stained with blood.She raised her head, with a glint of resistance hidden in her eyes, and suddenly spat at Fang Jishi!
"You!!" Fang Renyu pointed at her angrily.

The two officers who were guarding her quickly pressed her down again.

Chen Shuozhen was forced to lower his head, but he struggled desperately to get up. His backbone tried its best to get up, like a wild beast at the end of its rope, and roared:
"I hate you dog officials the most! You are so high up that no one can see you, and no one can see you! I have heard this a hundred times.

How is it now? I just saw it!And let them die in my hands and turn into a pile of mud!Ha ha ha ha……"

She laughed wildly and miserably. Li Ke heard the resentment in her heart, and remembered what the Muzhou governor had done. He couldn't help but sigh and asked:

"If you want to say anything to His Majesty, just say it. I will definitely bring it to you. Your Majesty did not come this time, but he sent me here to find out the truth of the matter." The officers and soldiers holding her down heard this. , finally relaxed a little, Chen Shuozhen raised her head again, panting violently, her resentful and resentful eyes soon filled with tears again, and she began to cry.

She looked at King Wu Li Ke, tears streaming down her face, but she didn't make a sound, as if she was deeply wronged.

After a while, she said aloud:

"Don't they all say that the emperor is the son of God, who takes care of the people on behalf of God? Why does he not care about the suffering of our Muzhou people?

When Governor Zhang was corrupt and perverted the law, causing the people of Muzhou to starve to death, become homeless, and sell their sons and daughters everywhere, he couldn't see it and didn't care.

But it was only after we took sickles and hacked these corrupt officials to death that he took control. He said we were rebels and he wanted to kill us all!
Therefore, only those who are officials are his people, and we are just a bunch of ants!Yeah! ! "

She shouted the last sentence so loudly that she was filled with hatred.

King Wu Li Ke frowned and was silent for a while, feeling a little unbearable, but he said:

"The affairs in the imperial court are complicated. How can you, a peasant woman, understand it? Your Majesty did not know about the disaster in Muzhou before. After returning, I will report clearly the whole story.

As for you, you proclaimed yourself emperor and raised an army to rebel. No matter what the reason is, it is reasonable to kill you! "

He paused and asked again:
"Anything else to say?"

Chen Shuo seemed to have exhausted all his strength. He shook his head with tears in his eyes. His eyes looked into the void, and his soul seemed to have drifted far away.

Governor Fang waved his hand: "Take him down."

After Chen Shuozhen was escorted away, Governor Fang asked King Wu:
"Your Highness, will she be executed on the spot, or will she be escorted to Chang'an to await His Majesty's judgment?"

Li Ke lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then sighed and said:
"She has a high prestige among the people now. If she stays here, some people will always feel sympathy and complain about the injustice of the court... Who will rescue her later? Wouldn't she become a disaster again?"

He looked at Governor Fang, who smiled awkwardly, feeling somewhat guilty.

Li Ke knew it well, because he himself felt that these mobs were pitiful, and Chen Shuo was really pitiful, so he withdrew his gaze and said decisively:
"Kill him! He will save you a lot of nightmares."

……

……

And what happened in the palace during these two or three months?

Wu Rou received an order from Emperor Li Shan and tried his best to win over Li Ji.

Naturally, the favor from the previous dynasty did not require her to take action. His Majesty had already issued an edict to treat Li Ji with great courtesy. He was specifically allowed to ride a pony in and out of the palace, and a small palace official was specially assigned to greet him when he came and went. .

The method of wooing the harem naturally started with Li Ji's daughter, Li Xiangyun.

With a big belly, Wu Rou went to the Queen on time to greet her in the morning, maintaining her image of "respectfully serving" the East Palace, and then prepared a banquet, waiting for Li Xiangyun's arrival.

She was sitting in the Zhaoqing Palace, watching Caiyi and the maids busy going back and forth. She felt a little nervous. After a while, she pointed to this and said:

"Go and change this curtain. Xiangyun doesn't like the green color."

After a while, he pointed to that one again:

"Hey, I don't want this snack. Let's change it to something else. I remember she doesn't like peanuts. There are peanuts wrapped here and there."

Seeing her like this, Caiyi couldn't help laughing and said:
"Your Majesty is very nervous. I'm afraid she is more nervous than the girls from the Li family entering the palace."
