Chapter 223

Just as Zhao Qiqi said, rumors spread the next day, saying that Sima Yu and Sima Shen conspired to kill the king and seize the throne, and even more that the crown prince was the backbone and played a bitter trick.

The Empress Dowager didn't believe this, and didn't bother to talk about it. She just spent the last day with Sima Rui. At this moment, she was just Sima Rui's mother.

In the evening, Sima Rui passed away. Before he died, he drew up an imperial decree to let the crown prince Sima Lian succeed him, and the crown prince Sima Jing became the crown prince.

Zhao Qiqi stayed by the queen mother's side, lest the queen mother be overwhelmed and collapse.

But she was too worried. As the champion of palace fighting, the Empress Dowager was very tough. She personally took care of Sima Rui's funeral. Sometimes she was so calm as if she was preparing for a funeral for someone she didn't know.

The Queen Mother didn't even have to sleep.

Zhao Qiqi couldn't persuade her, so she had to stay with her all the time.

It's just that when everyone was immersed in pain, the palace that was supposed to be quiet rang out with shouts of killing.

The Empress Dowager stopped arranging Sima Rui's clothes, and when she wanted to hear what was happening outside, an eunuch stumbled in.

"Empress Dowager, the fifth, fifth, and sixth masters led troops into the palace, saying that they wanted to 'be sidelined by the emperor' and killed the crown prince, ninth master, and tenth master!"

The Queen Mother shook slightly, and said with a sneer, "Hehe, it's actually the two of them, who can't help but come to die so soon! Very good! Yu'er and Shen'er will take care of it."

After she finished speaking, she continued to tidy up Sima Rui's clothes, and said, "Emperor, don't worry, the queen mother and Lian'er will take care of the Fengtian Dynasty together."

Zhao Qiqi saw that the queen mother had a strong mental quality, so she was even more worried about Sima Yu's side at this time, so she cupped her hands and said to the queen mother: "Queen mother, Qi Qi wants to help Jiu Ye and Shi Ye."

The queen mother raised her eyes and glanced at Zhao Qiqi, and said, "It should always be a man's job to kill the enemy in battle, so you can stay here at ease, Yu'er is fine."

Zhao Qiqi insisted on going, "Please allow the Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother sighed and said, "Then you go, be careful."

Zhao Qiqi nodded hastily, and walked out in a hurry.

When she and Xiao Yu came to Sima Yu's side, Sima Yu was commanding the imperial guards against the army of the fifth prince Sima Ying and the sixth prince Sima Qiao.

"Why are you here?" Sima Yu stared at Sima Ying and asked Zhao Qiqi.

Zhao Qiqi said indifferently: "Everyone can punish the rebellious ministers and thieves. Let me see if I can help."

"My brother, cough, my sister is here to help, and I will help her." Xiao Yu replied.

Sima Yu glanced at Zhao Qiqi softly, with a smile on his lips, and said, "You care about me."

"When is it time to talk and laugh?" Zhao Qiqi said angrily.

Sima Yu looked at Sima Ying, his eyes were shining with decisiveness, and he said calmly, "Catch the thief first!"

After Sima Yu finished speaking, he jumped down from the city wall and went straight to Sima Ying and Sima Qiao.

Both Sima Ying and Sima Qiao's eyes widened. Why didn't they realize that Sima Yu was so good at qinggong?
"Escort! Escort!" Sima Qiao yelled in fright, and the soldiers around them quickly surrounded them.

It's just that these can only be regarded as cannon fodder and are of no use after all.

In the blink of an eye, the sword in Sima Yu's hand was on Sima Ying's neck, and the other hand pinched Sima Qiao.

Seeing this, Leng Han flew over quickly, pinched Sima Qiao, and took out water for Sima Yu to wash his hands.

Zhao Qiqi on the city wall: "..." Is it really okay to be so clean after going to the battlefield?
But he can afford cleanliness, who made him have such a good subordinate?
