After her true feelings were exposed, the real princess was favored by the whole world

Chapter 124: Fengyin Country can still be saved!

Li Mu put his sword against Shang Shijin's delicate neck. As long as he exerted a little force, he could take Shang Shijin's life.

Seeing this, everyone had to stop their attacks. After all, that was General Lu's mother.

After the previous round of attacks, Li Mu only had a few guards left.

Li Mu ordered his subordinates: "Return them all."

They retreated in front of Li Mu and protected him.

Li Mu tightly grasped Shang Shijin's shoulders and threatened viciously: "Tell your son to stop, or I will kill you."

Shang Shijin answered without hesitation: "You're dreaming!"

"I, Shang Shijin, am not a coward!"

When Lu Jiuan left the imperial city, he specially sent someone to look after Shang Shijin. However, Duan Ci was insidious and cunning. He tricked Shang Shijin, who was concerned about his son's safety, out on the pretext that Lu Jiuan was seriously injured. He kidnapped and placed him under house arrest, and the guards who had gone with him were also killed.

Shang Shijin knew why they arrested her, which was to use her to threaten her son.

It was she who believed the enemy's words and gave them an opportunity to take advantage.

She will pay for her mistakes.

Shang Shijin’s only wish was to see Lu Jiuan again, and now her wish has been fulfilled.

Shang Shijin's eyes were filled with tears as he looked at Lu Jiuan and Shen Qingtang with loving care.

"An'er, mother will always love you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shang Shijin stretched her neck and leaned towards the sword. Li Mu never expected that this seemingly weak and incompetent woman would have such a strong character. Before he could react, Shang Shijin was already dead.

"mother!!!"

Lu Jiuan cried heart-wrenchingly, as if if only his voice was loud enough, his mother would come back to life.

His eyes were red and veins on his hands were bulging. This was the first time Shen Qingtang saw Lu Jiuan so angry.

Shen Qingtang didn't say anything just now because she was afraid that Li Mu would kill someone. Now that Shang Shijin is dead, there is no threat anymore. Shen Qingtang felt very regretful in her heart. She could feel Lu Jiuan's sadness.

Lu Jiuan was like a mad tiger, rushing towards Li Mu and others like crazy.

"I want you to be buried with my mother!!!"

Shang Shijin had a sense of justice and was willing to sacrifice himself for the country and the people, which moved everyone.

No one commanded them, they followed Lu Jiuan and killed him.

"Kill!!!"

If Lu Jiuan decides to kill, no one will be able to escape alive.

Li Mu was no match for Lu Jiuan at all and killed him in one move.

Li Mu was not dead yet and was still hanging on to his breath. Next, Lu Jiuan was going to torture him severely.

"Fourth Princess, please close your eyes." Lu Jiuan was worried that the scene was too cruel and would dirty Shen Qingtang's eyes.

"it is good."

Shen Qingtang could guess what Lu Jiuan wanted to do, so she closed her eyes obediently. The next moment, she heard the screams of ghosts howling like wolves and ghosts. Just by listening to the sound, she knew how miserable he was.

The shouting lasted for quite a while before it stopped. After a moment, Lu Jiuan spoke again: "Fourth Princess, you can open your eyes now."

Shen Qingtang opened his eyes and looked, but there was not even Li Mu's body on the ground.

Shen Qingtang no longer cared about Li Mu, and quickly ordered people to clean up the battlefield, appease the people, and rescue other officials who were under house arrest.

Thanks to Shen Qingtang who told Pei Han everything before leaving the imperial city, the officials were successfully saved.

It’s a pity that Shang Shijin was held in solitary confinement by Duan Ci, and Pei Han had no way to save him.

Shen Qingtang accompanied Lu Jiuan to bury Shang Shijin. As for the funeral arrangements of Shen Tianming and others, Shen Qingtang requested that everything be kept simple on the grounds of special circumstances.

After all matters were dealt with, the imperial city finally returned to its former peace.

The emperor, empress and second prince were all dead, leaving Shen Qingtang alone in the palace. Everyone in the palace respected Shen Qingtang. Shen Qingtang and Lu Jiuan were both very busy and did not sleep all night.

Since a riot had just broken out in the palace, and Fengyin Kingdom was now facing attacks from both Beiming Kingdom and Dongling Kingdom at the same time, even if Shen Qingtang was not the emperor, he could still act as the emperor.

At the court meeting the next day, Shen Qingtang wore a yellow robe and sat on the dragon throne, scolding the officials loudly.

The officials were scolded so much that they felt ashamed and couldn't even raise their heads. If it weren't for the Fourth Princess and General Lu, they would have really become prisoners.

Everyone felt deeply remorseful, and the words "be prepared for danger in times of peace" were deeply engraved in their hearts.

Shen Qingtang used both kindness and force. After teaching them a lesson, he gave them a sweet treat.

After all, an official who was imprisoned was not a traitor, but a member of Fengyin Kingdom.

After hearing this, everyone straightened their backs a little.

That's right, compared to those traitors, they are much better!

Shen Qingtang watched their every move, and now it was time to get excited.

It is a great virtue to admit one's mistakes and correct them. Shen Qingtang gave them a chance to make amends.

After this experience, everyone will change their ways, do their jobs well, and never slack off again.

Shen Qingtang has clear logic, is brave and resourceful, and uses both kindness and severity. His imperial demeanor awes people.

In addition, it was Shen Qingtang who brought people to rescue them, so the officials were convinced by her.

Seeing this, Shen Qingtang breathed a sigh of relief, as the internal troubles were resolved.

This is an external threat
"Report!!!"

Thinking of this, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly sounded outside the hall.

"Urgent border report!"

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty." The guard was stunned. Why was the fourth princess sitting on the dragon throne? Where was the emperor?

Seeing the guard standing there in a daze, Shen Qingtang urged, "Hurry up and tell me!"

After being yelled at by Shen Qingtang, the guards no longer bothered about the matter.

"Fourth Princess, it's bad, General Li has been killed!"

Everyone was shocked!
What?! General Li is dead?

Shen Qingtang's face changed when she heard that. She had seen Li Yi's skills before, and it was definitely not someone that an ordinary person could kill.

"Tell me clearly, what happened?"

"Fourth Princess, I don't know what method the Beiming Kingdom used, their people's magic power suddenly became stronger, and our soldiers suffered heavy losses."

"They surrounded General Li, and General Li had no choice but to detonate his own soul and perish with them."

"If it weren't for General Li, we wouldn't be able to hold on."

"It may not be long before the Beiming Kingdom makes a comeback. By then, we..."

Thinking of this, the guard's face turned extremely pale.

"And, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."

The officials were terrified when they heard this and they asked questions one after another.

"What happened, Your Highness?"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also died on the battlefield."

"What?! How could this happen!"

In an instant, everyone's eyes turned to Shen Qingtang.

The fourth princess is the only one left in the Fengyin Kingdom's royal family.

Fortunately, the Fourth Princess is no longer the stupid princess she used to be, and their Fengyin Kingdom can still be saved!
At this moment, Shen Qingtang has become the emperor in everyone's mind.
