Your Majesty the Empress, I am really not a traitor!

"I am curious, this is inevitable." Qin Ji said, "However, I also hope that Your Majesty can understand that I believe that there must be an inevitable reason for the Great Xia to last for thousands of years. All I do is to try my best to maintain it." The operation of Daxia allows Daxia to develop as soon as possible—as for the future, it will be considered slowly in the future.”

Hearing his words, Xia Yuxiao relaxed a little. She looked at the man in front of her, as if seeing him for the first time.

"After King Rong Sheng returns to the palace, what does His Majesty plan to do?"

"What do you mean?"

"I personally think that after King Rongsheng returns, he will not give up easily. Anyway, he will die anyway." Qin Ji said, "Although when I left, he had already disbanded his own armed forces, but I feel that the matter It won't be that simple."

"Let him go, I have already investigated," Xia Yuxiao leaned back in the chair, "Even if he summoned all his strength, there are only 2000 people. Outside Tai'an City, 2000 people want to fight It is difficult to enter the city gate, let alone enter the palace, my younger brother is a bit younger, but he is young, and he is not stupid."

"Ok."

Seeing what Xia Yuxiao said, Qin Ji didn't say anything.

However, after he resigned, he wrote a few letters to the outside of the city, and arranged for Lingyan to prepare some gifts for him, and followed him to the palace.

How should I put it? After all, His Majesty said that he was sick. Since he was sick, it would probably not be a problem for him to visit him, right?

Thinking of this, Qin Ji knocked on the gate of the palace.

This time, there was no one in the palace to stop him, and even if he was blocked, so what, even if Qin Ji didn't have soldiers to protect him, he was still able to escape unscathed. Now, even a dozen of these servants are not enough for him to fight.

It was the same strong man from before who brought him to Xia Yun's residence.

Then, Xia Yun just gave him a closed door.

Qin Ji didn't feel angry at all because of such closed doors. Rather, it is the most normal for him to be closed. After all, he and His Majesty are "connected" with each other. In the eyes of many people, this He definitely has a part in this matter.

Of course, it is true.

However, after Ziah was rejected, the Rongsheng King sent him another letter.

The words in the letter were very simple, just thanking him for his visit, and then in the letter, he said a strange sentence:

"Sometimes I also want to know whether my idea is right or wrong. Now it seems that it can still be verified after all."

Even Qin Ji found it strange to read such a nonsensical sentence.

However, he didn't think much of it.

What he didn't know was that King Rong Sheng was not in his mansion.

After being treated by the imperial doctor, he returned to his mansion, and immediately left his mansion under the cover of several reliable subordinates. There was a servant in his residence, and the letter was indeed He wrote it, but he didn't hand it out.

Just as the letter said, he, King Rong Sheng, didn't know whether his thoughts were right or wrong.

He only knows that success or failure is determined by others.

But this time, he hopes he can win.

King Rongsheng is not alone, behind him, he also has his own followers.

Although not as large-scale as Qin Ji, and did not have so much military power, most of them were still people with some weight above the court.Among them were several military leaders.

Of course, these bigwigs are still Qin Ji's subordinates, but even if they don't use the country's army, they can still gather a decent team with their own private soldiers.

What's more, interests can sometimes bring people unexpected interpersonal relationships.

For example, several royal brothers of King Rongsheng.And individual royal sisters who have already married.

These are resources, the result of his years of operation.But now such a result will soon be seen in Tai'an City.

He never believed in anyone's words, he only believed in himself. At this time, he decided to put all his eggs in one basket. The victory or defeat this time directly determined what he should do. — No, Emperor.

The last struggle is also the biggest struggle, even if it can only shake the authority of the so-called emperor in people's hearts, this matter is enough.

King Rong Sheng, who had finished what he was supposed to do, felt a rare sense of comfort.

It's been a long time since this happened, and people always say that being unofficial is easy.Now, knowing that my life is about to die, I don't care about anything else. What's the use of having more property after death?Still can't take it away, at most it's just put in the grave as a funeral.He doesn't care what other people think of him, he just wants to prove whether he is right or wrong.

Although such a proof requires a great price.

Although such a proof may subvert the entire Great Xia.

Even after such a proof, he himself may not be able to survive.

But many times, thinking about whether you can survive is a very cowardly behavior in itself. If you only think about whether you can survive, why should you bother to disobey the emperor?

The armor and weapons hidden outside the city have been distributed, and how much waves can be stirred up next depends on his luck.

Chapter 74 Rebellion

Rongsheng Palace.

Rong Sheng Wang Xia Yun was standing on the high platform at this time.

At his feet, the school grounds of the Wangfu were filled with densely packed soldiers wearing blue scarves.

They stood neatly together, their eyes full of anticipation.

Xia Yun stared at his dead soldiers below, his heart was full of bitterness.

These are all soldiers he has worked so hard to cultivate and are willing to follow him, and now, raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a short time, it is time to take out these bottom-of-the-box strengths.

He took a deep breath, and then said to the soldiers below:

"Everyone, you have followed me for many years. Thanks to your trust, I can still have you as my support. My Great Xia has been going on for thousands of years, and Ming Junying has appeared frequently, and there are many people with extraordinary martial arts and martial arts. Now, my Great Xia It is really a disgrace to Great Xia that the country is occupied by a woman and a treacherous minister!"

"The first emperor once said that he wanted to pass the throne to the crown prince, but the crown prince was abolished. How can this be the case? The crown prince has never made any mistakes, and he has never slackened in the slightest. He was deposed on the grounds of not following the etiquette. I am afraid it will be a treacherous scheme set up by that treacherous minister of An Guogong." !"

"Today, I would like you all to go with me and fight towards the palace, forcing the emperor to give way to the prince. The troops led by the prince and General Du will set fire to the west of the city first. At that time, the forbidden army will be sent to reinforce the palace, and our troops will go straight to the palace. , forcing His Majesty to abdicate!"

Having said that, Xia Yun raised his arms and shouted:

"Success or failure depends on one action, everyone, advance and retreat with me!"

The deafening shouts instantly drowned out his voice, and then, this team of thousands of people, led by [-] cavalry, went straight to the palace after years of careful preparation.

On the other side of Tai'an City, [-] soldiers led by the former prince and General Du rushed towards the palace at the same speed.

General Du originally thought that if he counted the soldiers of the generals who supported him, he would have tens of thousands in total. If the army does not come, this will cause the entire coup d'état team to shrink significantly.

But fortunately, I can still gather more than 3000 people here, plus the soldiers secretly raised by the former prince, more than 5000 people have been gathered in this way, and there are more than 2000 people who are not far from the city. Attract the attention of the troops on the outskirts of Tai'an City, block and delay the reinforcements of the outlying Great Xia troops.

It can be said that this is a long-planned coup.

The troops swept across every street quickly, and when they saw a group of armored soldiers passing by, almost all the people realized what had happened, and they hurriedly hid back to their homes to avoid the coup d'état from engulfing them.

But when King Rongsheng's army moved a few miles away from the palace, a group of forbidden troops spotted them from afar.

"There is a situation!"

The captain of the imperial army who was in charge of patrolling couldn't help shouting when he saw that the opponent's chess pieces had been erected.

"Prepare for battle!"

Facing thousands of elite soldiers, although there were only a dozen or so of the imperial guards, they were armed with weapons. Facing the attack of thousands of people, they charged into the crowd!

In an instant, the shouts were loud, and the dozen or so imperial guards looked very small in the face of a coup d'état team of thousands of people, but they kept waving their weapons in the crowd.

Just 1 minute later, the rebels continued to march forward wearing their armor, but only corpses were left on the ground, some of which belonged to the imperial army, and some belonged to the rebels.However, time is running out for the rebels.

Someone saw in the scuffle just now that a young imperial guard crawled out from the pile of dead people. He ran all the way when everyone didn't notice him. Counting the time now, I'm afraid the people in the palace already knew There's such a thing as mutiny.

The fact is indeed the case, when the forbidden soldiers marched towards the palace, the forbidden soldier had already stumbled all the way into the palace.

He informed everyone of the news that the rebels had gone straight to the palace, and there was chaos in the palace for a while, so that all departments were ready to evacuate the palace.

Similarly, such news reached Xia Yuxiao's ears.

Hearing this news, Xia Yuxiao was not surprised.

Rather, she had already anticipated the possibility that the Fifth Prince would rebel. There were indeed ghosts from various factions in the palace, and her younger brother definitely had them too.

The number of forbidden troops and dragon guards in the palace is not too many, because the main purpose of the forbidden army in Tai'an City is to maintain the safety of the palace, basically the number is less than 1000 people, but Xia Yuxiao wanted to prevent the possibility of such a rebellion. He had already prepared enough weapons and equipment in the palace, and quickly armed his forbidden troops.

But then, her "safety" went wrong.

The fire in the west of the city was billowing with thick smoke, and people were extremely reluctant to put out the fire, but at this moment, news came that at least 5000 people came from the west of the city, and they also came straight to the palace.

Now, Xia Yuxiao couldn't calm down anymore.

No, is the prince so brave?

Originally, I thought that there was no big requirement for the prince to keep his own place during this time, but now facing the temptation of profit, the prince still decisively chose to work with the fifth prince...

How should I put it, it is those people who are really relentless.

"Transfer the black-armored cavalry in the city to the west of the city. You don't need to decide the winner, you just need to hold the opponent back." Having said that, Xia Yuxiao turned her head, "General Bai, where is your army?"

General Bai had brought his troops back before.

"Your Majesty, I am trying my best to gather those soldiers, but Your Majesty, forgive me, if you place your hopes on your troops, it may be difficult to achieve. Now outside the palace, there are rebels everywhere in the city, and the soldiers who are on vacation at home are all in the city Everywhere is divided, and it may be extremely difficult to gather. Besides, their armor is not in their hands, if they gather rashly like this, even if there are soldiers who can gather in a large scale, I'm afraid they will be wiped out soon."

"Your Majesty, if it doesn't work, please invite all the celestial masters and practitioners in the palace. Although there are not many of them, I believe they will be able to stop the rebels."

In this regard, General Bai made such a suggestion.

The ministers present echoed.The imperial court kept these celestial masters and practitioners for emergency use. It is better to invite the celestial masters here now. No matter how hard these six or seven thousand rebels can fight, they cannot defeat the celestial masters.

"Tianshi... I can't use it casually."

Xia Yuxiao said in a low voice.

Celestial masters can't be used indiscriminately unless they are really needed. For Xia Yuxiao, this matter was even earlier than she knew that she would be the emperor.When the first emperor fought in the south and north, when the battle in Great Xia was at its worst, he mobilized more than 80 troops at the same time, and continued to fill the front line with soldiers. Even at that level, the first emperor never relied on the power of the celestial master .

How to do......

Just as the ministers in the court were discussing, suddenly, a person ran in quickly from outside.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

"Tell me, what's the matter!"

An official next to him asked hurriedly.

It was a soldier, but from the blood and dust on the soldier's body, it could be seen that this soldier had just been sent from the front line to deliver news.

"Our army, our army fought bravely, with heavy casualties...but, Duke An is here!"

As soon as this sentence was said, the whole court exploded.

"An Guogong! I didn't expect him to actually come!"
