Chapter 365: Make choices for others.

It only took three days, in fact, just one day, and the outcome between the Second Prince and the Crown Prince was decided.

People don't know if this is the final outcome.

But all the officials of Qing State have silently taken sides. Except for some diehards who are still looking forward to changes and reversals, everyone else has given their answers through their actions.

This was the first rebellion in broad daylight since the founding of the Qing Kingdom, and it ended in a miserable failure.

Why do you think so?
At the beginning, this rebellion involved the two military leaders, the Qin family and the Ye family, and the rebellion against Emperor Qing that brought together two princes and the eldest princess was a failure.

Even the object of rebellion did not come back, isn’t this considered a failure?
The only one who could be considered successful was Fan Xian. After all, he succeeded in killing the king, but he became the biggest loser.

The water has calmed down and there are no more waves.

Even including the captured Crown Prince Li Chengqian, everyone was nervously waiting for the subsequent changes in Kyoto.

Soon, news that surprised everyone spread from inside Kyoto City - Princess Li Yunrui was dead!
When the experienced coroner who had inspected many scenes and corpses arrived at the Royal Courtyard, he could not even give a specific cause of death. This was because the Princess had multiple wounds all over her body, which showed signs of poisoning. For a moment, when the Second Prince, now His Majesty, asked him about it, the experienced coroner could not even give a definite answer.

"You go down first."

As the new king of Qing Kingdom, Li Chengze looked a little gloomy. He waved his hand sadly and fell silent into thought.

The lights in the palace were bright as if it were daytime.

Although there were many people, no one spoke at this moment, and the silence was somewhat sacred.

“Your Majesty, the troops on the front line that are besieging the rebels and the prince have sent back news.” Ye Zhong spoke in a rough voice, as if he could not understand the atmosphere in the field.

"Oh?"

Li Chengze straightened up with his hand on his cheek. His tone was frivolous, but at least his upright posture made people know that his attitude was a little more serious. "What did you write?"

There was no battle report, it seemed like a verbal message.

Ye Zhong did not take out the letter, but just said: "Prince He's troops only advance two hours a day. The besieging generals harass them from time to time. If there is a chance, they will attack and test, but because Ku He has appeared twice, they dare not use their full strength."

"Oh, is Si Gu Jian here?"

"Although he has not shown up, I think he should be in the team. The one leading the Dongyi City army now is an unknown general."

Li Chengze didn't even think about it, and sneered: "Since Si Gu Jian is here, why don't you attack?"

This statement is not only embarrassing, but also a way to vent emotions.

Si Gu Jian was the Si Gu Jian of Dongyi City, not a dog of the new ruler whose power was not even particularly stable. What the other party wanted to do would not be completely in accordance with his ideas.

Ye Zhong, who understood this, bowed but did not even respond.

Perhaps it was the change in his identity that made this formerly gentle young man less interesting and talkative.

He stood up, brushed his sleeves, and paced in front of the dragon throne, muttering, "It doesn't feel that good to sit in this position."

is not that right?

The soldiers did not dare to fight for their lives, the civil officials pretended to obey but secretly disobeyed, and even the eldest princess, whom he had already spared, was put to death by outsiders and died in the royal villa.

The most infuriating and ridiculous thing is that we can’t even determine the cause of death!

ridiculous!

How ridiculous!
Looking at the emperor who was in rage, the people in the room lowered their heads even more, and even their breathing became much lighter, as if they sensed a little bit of the special scent of the late emperor when he was still alive on Li Chengze.

"Let's go!" "Let's go to the Royal Courtyard. It can be seen as a final farewell to my aunt and a last look at her!"

The ministers and eunuchs were anxious, scrambling to get the first word and shouting, "Your Majesty, think twice!"

"Your Majesty, a tragedy has just occurred in the Royal Courtyard. It is extremely dangerous. Our ancestors once said that a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall."

"General Ye, please also persuade His Majesty!"

Ye Chong just followed behind Li Chengze without saying a word.

Li Chengze felt tired. It's not like he hadn't thought about what life was like during the reign of Emperor Qing. Although those old ministers were slick, they were always steady in their work. Fan Jian, Chen Pingping, the ministers of various ministries, Gong Dian, the clan leaders of various tribes. Even Mei Zhili who was killed by bandits were all talents who could be used!
What about now?
These old men have not shown up one by one, but some newcomers have shown up in the court, but they are all frivolous.

After all, my foundation is a little shallow. Unlike the Prince's Eastern Palace, there has long been a team that has been directly or indirectly cultivated by Emperor Qing. It seems that they were all killed this morning, right?

Pity.

Although his staff were capable, they were too few in number and lacked training.

Just let yourself be tired now!
"Get out of the palace!"

Everyone in the hall stopped trying to persuade him. Instead, they looked at each other and quickly followed Li Chengze's steps and rushed away.

------------

Li Yunrui is a complex but unchangeable person. Her life is wonderful and her character is three-dimensional.

But her motives are not sufficient, at least they are not understandable or sympathetic.

It is precisely because of this that no one pities her, no one understands her, and no one helps her.

How glorious she was when she cherished the past, now it seems so desolate.

"Thank you, sir!" Yan Xiaoyi was a strong and proud man. He had killed countless people in his life. Some of them were people he wanted to kill, but most of them were people he didn't know and he killed them only because of orders.

"No need to say more, today is the day to fulfill your promise."

The two met at the border of Kyoto City.

The reason why they were able to reunite so quickly was thanks to his snow sculpture. Yes, the snow sculpture had returned from the border of Western Hu, and brought back a letter with it.

"Sir, you seem to have changed a lot."

Looking at Li An's slightly weathered face, Yan Xiaoyi was surprised.

Yan Xiaoyi has no other abilities, he has only learned how to kill people. As the only ninth-rank archer in the world, he has amazing eyesight and even the slightest changes of ordinary people cannot catch his eyes. What's more, Li An has no intention of hiding anything at this time.

"Master Ku He may not survive this winter." Li An said, "I have been hesitant about something. In this case, I plan to leave the choice to Master Ku He and let him make it himself."

People have value. Ku He was a master, but to be honest, he was trapped in the temple all his life and did not make any major contribution to the Northern Qi Dynasty.

Perhaps the only thing worth mentioning was that the young Zhan Doudou successfully took the position and hugged the mother and daughter when they were at their weakest.

He is dying
Ang Lee wants to make his life brilliant one last time!
In other words, he wanted to do something with this dying man.

This idea cannot be said to be right or wrong. It vaguely contains a sense of treating everyone equally. Even after sacrificing the other party, the Tianyi Sect may hate themselves very much.

"Sir, you did give the choice to Master Ku He, but isn't this also helping the other party make the choice?"

"Master Ku He, do you have any choice?"
