The Imperial Palace of Qi State.
The old emperor passed away, and after a fierce competition, the original third prince stood out and succeeded to the throne in front of his body.
Inside the palace, blood was faint, and all the officials were trembling and uneasy, especially the maids and eunuchs who originally served the late emperor in the Palace of Peace, and even the general manager Su Laojian were sentenced to death, which caused secret rumors to spread.
"No matter what... I won after all this time!"
The original third prince, Emperor Qi was now wearing an imperial crown, holding a dong bead, and looking at the worshiping officials below. Although his face was calm, his heart was surging.
"At this time, most of the imperial guards and imperial guards have surrendered, and the overall situation has been decided. It's just that Lao Qi and the others seem to be unwilling to accept it. They must be defeated by the thunder! Well, if Mr. Mian doesn't come this time, that's it. The best excuse ever!"
Unfilial piety and disloyalty are serious sins that even the prince cannot bear.
At this time, the new emperor glanced at the old emperor in the dragon coffin. His livid face and stiff and white palms suddenly felt cold. He quickly turned his head, not daring to look again, and silently prayed in his heart: "Father... although you The one who is paying attention is Lao Qi, but since I have inherited the unification, I will definitely lead the Qi country to become prosperous and powerful, and more importantly, unify the three countries and complete this unprecedented hegemony! Qin Tianjian came to report, my purple star of humanity shines brightly, now This is the sign that the Lord is coming, and it must be on me!"
"Greetings to Your Majesty!"
At this time, all the ministers below knelt three times and kowtowed nine times, which was regarded as completing the great ceremony.
"Well, my dear friends, I will be exempted from the courtesy!"
Qi Huang was walking like a tiger, and suddenly he said: "Where are Lao Qi, Lao Jiu and the others? Why is it still so late when my father dies? My heart aches!"
"Your Majesty, the Seventh Prince was previously punished to shut up and reflect on his past mistakes. The Ninth Prince is still at the border and is still on his way..."
An old minister came out to report.
"Haha... It's really a good excuse. Are you doubting my brother?"
Emperor Qi smiled coldly and immediately ordered: "These two people are treasonous and contrary to filial piety. Although I can't bear to hurt our family ties, I have no choice but to order the imperial guards to dispatch immediately and press these two people in front of my father's soul." ! I want to question them!"
He is the eldest brother, so of course he cannot yell at his younger brother to kill him, but as long as he is arrested and put under house arrest, there are naturally many ways to deal with it.
Several imperial guards took the order and ran out, then suddenly froze.
Boom!
Amidst the loud noise, the ground shook, and faint shouts of killing came. Not far from the city gate, fire shot into the sky, and black air condensed into clouds, carrying an ominous smell.
"what happened?"
The noise was so loud that it could even be heard in the Jinluan Palace, and Emperor Qi's expression changed.
"Report!"
A guard quickly came to report: "Your Majesty, the seventh and ninth princes have brought an army of soldiers and horses, saying that they want to clear the emperor's side. The admiral of the east gate has already surrendered the gate and is heading towards the palace at this time!"
"What?"
Qi Huang suddenly felt angry and almost vomited blood.
Surrounding the imperial capital of Qi, there are naturally a garrison, which is the Imperial Forbidden Army, the best among the best.
Previously, the old emperor favored the seventh and ninth princes. He was placed on the board of directors of various ministries, and he attracted a group of party members.
In fact, in terms of power, he was still inferior to the two of them. He was able to ascend the throne this time entirely because he was unexpected and secretly bribed the old emperor's bodyguards and cronies. With a thunderous strike, he was actually very risky.
I just didn't expect that these two princes were so determined that they directly tempted the imperial guards outside to raise troops, and even persuaded Kaicheng to surrender.
"The Seventh Prince has a destiny. This time he marches into the army, Qiu will not offend!"
"The Ninth Prince has passed down an order that if any sergeant commits adultery or violates the law, the military law enforcement team will immediately kill him!"
…
Following the sound, an army came and surrounded the palace without much resistance.
Emperor Qi's face turned pale, and he reluctantly climbed onto the city wall. When he saw the dark military formation below, he was shaken: "Traitor! Zhang Jin, kill them for me!"
At this time, the Ouchi guards still reluctantly listened to the command and guarded the imperial city.
But Qi Huang's palms were cold.
Even if he wins today, there will be a rebellion just after he takes the throne. It will be a terrible blow to the emperor's prestige. Not to mention that the people on his side seem to be panicked and may not last long.
"Listen, civil and military officials, we are raising troops this time just because our father died in an unexplained manner. As a son and a minister, we must seek justice!"
The huge sound came from Taoist magic.
The officials couldn't help but remain silent. The two princes were no different from accusing the emperor of killing the late emperor and tampering with the imperial edict.
"My succession to the throne is fair and upright, and I have a posthumous edict to prove it. How can I allow you to slander me!"
Emperor Qi roared loudly and his eyes were about to burst.
"Give you a moment to burn incense. If you don't open the door and surrender, we will attack!"
But at this time, the two princes outside had reached a dead end. Even if the edict was true, it had to be fake, so they shouted a few words, and after making a scene, they immediately ordered the soldiers to attack the city.
"kill!"
"Trebuchet, release!"
"Get ready for the ladder!"
In an instant, the originally magnificent palace turned into a battlefield.
Blood and fire splashed, and gunpowder smoke rose everywhere.
All the people in the imperial capital of Da Qi closed their homes tightly, hiding in bed and trembling in fear. This imperial capital of Qi State, a famous city through the ages, cannot escape the ravages of war after all.
The palace's resistance was not very resolute. After half a day, the city was breached and a large number of soldiers poured in.
The third prince had disheveled hair, a long sword in his hand, and his imperial robes were stained with blood. At this time, he went to one palace after another, looking anxious: "Beauty... Beauty, leave with me quickly. I am still the emperor, even if I leave the capital. , you can also call on the loyal ministers and righteous men in the world to rise up and serve the king!"
He broke into a palace and scared away many palace ladies and chamberlains. In the palace, a wisp of piano music came over, and the lingering sound lingered for three days.
The one who was playing the harp was a stunning woman, dressed in the attire of a concubine, she was graceful and elegant, and her manners were exquisite.
"Qing'er, come with me quickly!"
The third prince's eyes showed a look of obsession. Once upon a time, he loved listening to Qing'er playing the piano and having fun leisurely in the mansion.
But since I started planning big things, it seems that I have never heard such music again.
"Why should I leave?"
Qing'er smiled gently, and flowers seemed to be blooming in the hall.
"Um?"
The third prince was startled and felt that the concubine seemed to have changed.
"Sun Xingyu, after playing with you for so long, I'm tired of it. It's time to play with another prince..."
Qing'er said calmly.
"What? You want to take refuge with Lao Qi and Lao Ninth, you bitch!"
The third prince understood the meaning, and a surge of anger rushed to his forehead: "I'm going to kill you!"
With blood-red eyes, he stepped forward with his sword drawn.
"Boring!"
Qing'er yawned, and a black shadow suddenly jumped out from beside him, biting off the third prince's palm.
"Ah... monster!"
This black shadow is a huge rat, with eyes the size of copper coins, emitting green light, and it looks very scary.
"It is indeed a monster, and he is one of my own race!"
Qing'er sighed quietly: "After more than ten years of planning, today I finally got the full result... Although you are the emperor, you can't get out of the palace. At this time, the situation is in decline. How much energy can you still have? Just go on your way with peace of mind... Don't worry. , your brothers will also come down to accompany you soon!"
Her words were calm, but the third prince was immediately horrified: "You monsters, you actually want to destroy Zuo, my country, Da Qi?"
Even if either of the Seventh and Ninth Lao succeeded to the throne, the throne would still be in the hands of Sun, but at this time, Emperor Qi smelled a big conspiracy.
"Hehe... Yes, as long as today passes, the news that the two princes are rebellious, rebelling, and forcing the emperor to death will spread to the whole world..."
Qing'er seemed to like this situation very much. Even if there were shouts of killing Zhentian outside and the fighting was getting closer, he would still say unhurriedly: "After this battle, the majesty of the Daqi royal family has plummeted, and vassal towns are everywhere. I don't know how many people will die? The more people die, the happier I will be!"
"Demon... witch!"
Emperor Qi's eyes were about to burst as he was bitten on the throat by the rat demon.
Boom!
There seemed to be a thunder flash in the sky, and the giant rat screamed suddenly, its hair was black, and even Qing'er turned pale and spit out a mouthful of blood.
"It is obvious that we are at the end of the road, but there is still such energy to protect us. Humanity's destiny is really profound and has the potential to rise..."
She looked solemn, stood up, and overturned the oil lamp.
The flames spread and suddenly enveloped the entire palace, and a black smoke rose into the sky.
After the death of the first emperor of Qi, the two princes rebelled, attacked the palace, and forced the new emperor to death. The news spread throughout the world overnight. Princes immediately rose up in arms, and the entire Qi country fell into chaos.
Similar to its situation, there is Daliang in neighboring countries.
Yutong Mansion.
Accompanied by the cry of killing, a large number of officers and soldiers entered the city and directly killed them.
After besieging the city for several months, they suffered many unfavorable attacks and suffered heavy casualties. They were in urgent need of catharsis through massacre.
"Congratulations to General Huo, destroying this feudal town is a miracle!"
Outside the city, a glaring general watched this scene from a distance, while the staff next to him spoke complimentarily.
"Hmm... pass my order, Xu Xicheng, don't seal the sword for three days!"
General Huo sneered and ordered directly: "Anyway, this city is also the core of Wu Ni, and the common people benefit from it. It would be bad if they miss the old master. It would be more convenient to kill him!"
As soon as this order came out, the morale of the army was greatly boosted, but the surrounding staff and captains were silent.
This General Huo is a relative of a foreigner. He is cruel and easy to kill, but he is indeed good at marching and fighting.
This time I was ordered to go out, conquer the rebellion, and eradicate a vassal town. It can be said that it was a great achievement, but it seemed that it was a little too much.
Of course, with the support from the backstage, no one can do anything to him.
After all, those Qingtian who are willing to contradict their chief officials for the lives of ordinary people are in the minority.
At this time, Huo Qing looked at the screaming city, his eyes were filled with blood, and he could hardly suppress his instinct: "My demon clan will not only disrupt the momentum of the Three Kingdoms, but also cannot let the heroes of the clan rise. This Yunwen Yunwu, the governor of Wu Town, was also a dragon spirit. Today I finally killed him... "
