Descendants of Pangu in the Great Desolation

Chapter 100 comes to an end
"Your Majesty, it was too late for me to save you. King Chang, why don't you just arrest him?"

Liu Yao was immersed in the joy of getting rid of Liu Yuan, when he suddenly heard someone yelling at him, he turned around and saw that it was Li Liang who came.Liu Yao pointed to the head on the ground and said to Li Liang: "It's not too late for you to come, and you can still see your Majesty for the last time." After speaking, he smiled arrogantly.

When Li Liang saw the head on the ground, he knelt on the ground and picked up the head on the ground, and shouted regretfully: "Your Majesty, I am a step late." He raised his head to look at Liu Shu, and said with a fierce look in his eyes: "Your Majesty, I will avenge you now. Liu Shu will take his life..." Raising the scimitar in his hand, he swung it at Liu Shu.Mei Qimie, who was approached by Li Liang's army, stopped Li Liang's scimitar with a knife, and said sharply, "Li Liang, do you want to murder the emperor? Now that the former emperor has passed away, Chang Wang Liu Jue is the new lord. Don't put down the knife for me." Li Liang turned his head and gave Mei Qi Mie a vicious look, and said, "I only recognize Liu Yuan as the emperor, since my emperor has passed away, then I'll do the same. As long as he..." Pointing to Liu Shu casually, "As long as he dies, there will be no royal family in the original dynasty, and everyone can fight for the throne. Isn't it?" Li Liang turned his head and stared at Mei Qimie after he finished speaking.Liu Shu was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He only had a few hundred soldiers on his side, so how could he defeat Li Liang's remaining army?Is the throne that I have worked so hard to hand over to others like this?Liu Yao pretended to be calm, pointed at Li Liang and shouted to the soldiers beside him, "Quick...quickly catch Li Liang, this traitorous minister, for this king."

The soldiers on both sides were not fools. Since Li Liang said that he wanted to seize the throne, the original dynasty would be ruled by the Li family in the future.Everyone held this kind of thinking, and no one stepped forward to take down Li Liang. They just stared at the chaotic situation and waited and watched.

Seeing that no one was doing anything, Li Liang smiled and said, "Did you see that? King Chang. No one will take your words seriously at all. You'd better be obedient and catch them without a fight. Someone, let me kill the rebellious ministers Liu Shu and Mei Qi." Take down, the rest of the soldiers, I, Li Liang, who are willing to surrender, will accept them all. If you don’t want to surrender, just talk to your master, I will make you loyal, and follow your master to hell." At this time, from the shadow of the screen behind the dragon chair Three figures walked out, and the one in front clapped his hands and said, "Since General Li has said so, are you soldiers planning to serve the Ming Lord or follow the old Lord?"

"Your Majesty, are you alright? I'm so scared to death, I thought I was going to build the Underworld Palace for Your Majesty." Li Liang looked at the person who came, and immediately gave up Liu Shu in front of him, rushed in front of the person, knelt down and said .Liu Yao also looked at the person who came, and was so shocked that he almost collapsed on the ground, while Mei Qimie who was on the side was also terrified by the person who came, and the saber in his hand fell to the ground with a "bang".

It turned out that the three people who walked out from behind the screen were none other than the biggest beneficiaries of this court civil strife.The person walking in the front was Liu Yuan, the former national army whose head was beheaded by Liu Shuan, and the two behind him were naturally Prince Rui Situ Rui of the Yun Dynasty and Prince Rui's subordinate Meng Si'er.Liu Yuan helped Li Liang who was kneeling on the ground, came to the dragon chair and sat down, and said, "How is it? Brother Sihuang, isn't it incredible to see the lonely king sitting here alive?" Liu Yao looked at the dragon chair Liu Yuan, who was on the bed, looked at Liu Yuan's head which was still on the ground by Li Liang, and stammered, "What... what's going on?" Liu Yuan smiled and said, "It's up to Prince Rui to explain. Let’s see, why can the lonely king sit here and look at you after you cut off the head of the lonely king?”

Situ Rui, who was behind him, stepped forward and said: "Actually, it's easy to explain. Everything you saw before, including the head, was just an illusion and didn't exist at all. Didn't you realize that, apart from the fact that the head is still here, Has the body disappeared a long time ago?" Liu Tui then noticed that the headless body that had been lying beside the dragon chair had long since disappeared, disappearing without a trace like air.Liu Shuai picked up the head on the ground, squeezed it lightly and it disappeared like air.Liu Shu looked at the empty palm and laughed loudly. The laughter echoed on the beams of the house with resentment and hatred, which could not go away for a long time.Liu Shuai threw away the long sword in his hand, looked at Liu Yuan and said, "Sixth Brother, it seems that it is the best choice for Father to pass on the throne to you. Brother, I have nothing to say. I lost to you today." , I have no complaints or regrets, I just ask you to treat these soldiers well. They are my subordinates and your subjects, you must not abandon your subjects." Liu Yuan nodded and said: "Brother Sihuang, don't worry, I will To be a good emperor" After speaking, he turned his head and told Li Liang, "General Li will take King Chang and General Mei and put them in prison. I will talk about other things later. The lonely king is tired and wants to rest. I will leave it to you here." gone."

"Farewell to my emperor, long live my emperor!" Li Liang took the lead in kneeling and saluting.Liu Yuan was sent off by all the soldiers, and accompanied by Situ Rui and Meng Si'er, he walked slowly into the bedroom behind Yongfu Palace.

Three days later, at the Palace of Zichen, Liu Yuan ordered that all the officials who participated in the rebellion be taken down together. The first people, including the Chang Wang Liu Shu, the former imperial general Mei Qimie, and the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, except for the prime minister Dong Liangyou Those who made accusations were lightly punished, and they were all sentenced to beheaded.General Li Liang was conferred the title of Imperial General to lead the three armies because of his meritorious service in rescuing him, and his officers and soldiers were promoted to two ranks and rewarded with silver; Tian Shaowei was specially conferred the title of "Loyal and Brave Marquis" because he used his life to protect his master, and he was awarded another 300 taels of silver. , [-] acres of fertile land for the life of the wife, children and mother.Moreover, Liu Yuan also announced that Situ Rui should have been rewarded for his meritorious service in rescuing him, but because of his status as the prince of Yunchao, he decided to sworn brothers with him and named him Marquis Rui, and decided to make peace with Yunchao forever.

In this way, the civil strife in the Yuan Dynasty ended with the failure of King Chang and others, and Situ Rui also achieved the expected effect and won the support of the Yuan Dynasty.After everything returned to the original place, Situ Rui took Yu Xin on the road back to the country.

On the second day after Situ Rui left, Liu Yuan came to the cell where Liu Shu was held alone, and said to Liu Shu who was waiting to be executed: "Brother Si Huang, since you have fallen to this point, I will tell you the truth To tell the truth. In fact..." Liu Yuan glanced at Liu Shu, "Actually, the father did not die due to illness, but the lonely king sent people to continue to add a small amount of Xiaoyaosan to the father's medicine, and the toxicity slowly Spread the poison all over the body, and finally died from the poison." Liu Juan stared at Liu Yuan, and said angrily: "You...didn't expect that Father Emperor would die by your hands. During the past few days in prison, I I was still wondering if I did something wrong, to kill each other with my compatriots for the sake of an emperor, and to get into such a world. It turns out that everything I did was right, but I didn’t have a good military adviser, so I let you People get everything that belongs to me." Liu Yuan smiled and said: "Then what can I do, who made Situ Rui want to get my support so that he can ascend to the throne of the Yun Dynasty? If he doesn't try to save my life, how can he?" How about getting everything he wants? I also want to tell you a secret. Before his death, the emperor did leave a will. The will said that he wanted you to ascend the throne, but I got it first and I will know the will. Everyone has silenced the matter, now you can go with your father with peace of mind..." Liu Yuan took out a dagger from his sleeve and stabbed it straight into Liu Shu's chest.Seeing Liu Yao's wide-open eyes, Liu Yuan said with a sinister smile, "Don't worry, Brother Sihuang, I will also send your beloved woman to hell, and let you be a ghost couple in the underworld. Who told me to be you?" Where is the best imperial brother, haha..." Then he left the prison with a wave of his hand, and walked towards Mei Ruizhi who was guarding Dongyang Palace and waiting for canonization.In the empty prison, only Liu Shu's corpse with a grim face and a pool of bright red blood remained.
