The Dragon City Rebellion, which occurred shortly after the succession to the throne by Chu Jiangmian, the king of Zhao, began abruptly and ended quickly. From beginning to end, it was only the middle of the night and half a day. Although this rebellion had a far-reaching impact, it actually did not cause much damage to the Zhao State at that time. Even the people of Dragon City had already calmed down before they could panic.

In a sense, this rebellion, which did not go down in history, was more like a farce. According to the rumors, it is a group of greedy royal nobles, in order to obtain greater benefits, regardless of the safety of the country and the people, colluding with the princes of the enemy country, in a vain attempt to overthrow the greatest and benevolent king in the history of the Zhao State! Fortunately, with the blessing of the heavens, their plot was discovered in time, so that everyone and God were outraged, and all those involved in the rebellion got the fate they deserved.

No matter what era, for ordinary people, the struggle between these upper-class nobles, no matter what it is, no matter who is right or wrong, as long as it does not endanger their peaceful life, they will not care so much. After the shock, it will soon return to flatness. Their eyes are only on the person who can lead them to a good life for a long time.

Those royal nobles who participated in the rebellion are dead! Anyway, there are so many people in the huge royal family, who makes them greedy and not enough, and they can't live a good life. This is the opinion of the vast majority of people when it is discussed in restaurants and tea shops.

In fact, the tragedy of that night was far from being so simple to put it mildly. The souls of those who died in the fire and blood will be full of resentment, and will never be able to live again.

The rebels led by Uncle Wang Chu Daxing and Gongzi Chu Qingyun entered Jinxiang Palace in one go. Strangely, they didn't encounter too much resistance along the way. However, all the people who are carried away by the temptation of great power do not realize that they have fallen into a trap. This is a bottomless abyss, and once you enter it, you will be crushed and it will be difficult to get out.

When dawn came, the rebels who wanted to rush directly into the front hall suddenly realized that they might never be able to rush through the long corridor in front of them. The front and rear palace doors closed at the same time, and in the glow, the high walls on both sides flashed the edges of soldiers wearing iron armor and crossbow arrows.

The frightened royal nobles saw the figure of Minister Fei Yi from it. A grim smile appeared on his face, and then without asking a word, he directly issued the order to kill.

In order to protect the feathers of the young man who was far away from Dragon City, this loyal old minister was willing to bear all his sins. No matter what the consequences might be in the future, when he gave this order, there was not the slightest hesitation in his heart.

In less than half an hour, most of the rebels died in the closed tunnel. The crossbow arrows are ruthless and deadly. No matter what the identity is, in the face of such iron and blood, it can only be the same tragic fate.

Perhaps, the only person who escaped was Gongzi Chu Qingyun. The ambusher's crossbow arrows deliberately did not target him, and under the desperate cover of the dead men, he escaped from this death passage. Then, covered in blood, he fled all the way to the palace where he had lived in the past.

The noble son of Zhao Guogui, who lost his soul, closed the palace door and sat inside alone. Only at such a time did he deeply understand that he was not Chu Jiangmian's opponent after all. The man who had already ascended the throne didn't even look at him, and his ambition was completely shattered, and there was not even scum left. If you lose, the end will be miserable.

This palace was the one where he lived when he was a child. At that time, his mother was still there. Think of those carefree happy times, and look at the scars all over your body...... He didn't know who to hate!

Thinking of the sadness, Chu Qingyun laughed loudly and drew his sword, dancing and singing sad songs.

"The body is like a grasshopper, the sea is gloomy, where can I get what I want? Where is home? God is hateful, so that I am young and lonely, and I cannot be longed for, if the heavens are on fire, burn my body ......! ”

Zhao Guoxiang, who ordered the soldiers to surround the palace, did not immediately attack, nor did he ask the queen mother again. He just waited quietly. It is impossible for this prince of Zhao Guo to live again, but how to die, he will give him a chance to choose.

The fire burned an hour later. The palace, which had been deserted for many years, had been isolated, so the fire would not spread elsewhere. Hearing the long and desolate song coming from the raging fire, Fei Yi sighed secretly. He silently lowered his head and said only one word.

"You shouldn't have been born into a king's house, and you shouldn't have ambitions...... This is the best ending. ”

When the entire palace was burned to ashes, the Queen Mother Jiang Xin, who had been standing at the top of the apse and watching, listened to the news sent back by Minister Fei Yi, she only said calmly: "I know." Then he turned away and never looked back.

She is the queen mother of the country, but more of a mother. When someone threatens her most doting son, she is no different from all mothers in this world.

"Brother Lie, I ordered one of your sons to be killed. If you resent, resent me. Our Jiang Mian'er, he will never break his promise to you! ”

Before walking down the last step, the woman who was gradually passing away said this sentence silently to the empty hall. Her hero is gone, never to return. After removing the last threats from the royal family in her son's place, she will relinquish all power and never meddle in any military affairs again. Perhaps, the biggest wish for the rest ......of his life is to watch his son's figure behind his back and watch him go farther and farther away.

When all rebellions had been quelled, a thorough inventory was carried out throughout the royal court. Minister Fei Yi and Shangda Fu Zizhong rarely joined forces to severely investigate the officials who belonged to the original Wang Shuchu Daxing's faction. Naturally, the punishment received by these people varied. The victor is the prince and the loser is the thief, this is an eternal truth, but it is not surprising.

In this way, many powers have been redivided. When Fei Yi, who was authorized by Chu Jiangmian to preside over these things, personally handed the plan to him, he only glanced at it in a hurry, and then completely nodded in agreement.

The appointment of positions and personnel inside and outside the royal court was a matter of great importance to others. In Chu Jiangmian's eyes, he didn't see it too important. He had always believed that there was never a fixed pattern for appointing officials. As long as there are people who have the ability to do things, he will give everyone a chance completely equally. In his vision, a new royal court needs a large number of talents who have the courage to take responsibility. Because in the many livelihood projects he will carry out next, too many people are needed!

"My lord, since last year, the old minister has been working hard and dare not relax. Now that I see that you have finally taken over the entire Zhao Kingdom smoothly, I am also relieved. The burden on the old minister's shoulders is too heavy, and he really wants to take a break! ”

In front of the tomb of the former king, Fei Yi, the minister of state who was sitting on the ground, looked at Chu Jiangmian's face calmly, and he had both relief and regret in his heart. This young man, whom he had watched grow up with his own eyes, was so full of spirit, and the light under his eyes was almost as bright as the sun, moon and stars. How nice it would be if I were twenty years younger! Now with this old body, he feels that he can't continue to drag him back.

Chu Jiangmian lowered his head and was silent for a moment, and when he raised his head again, his eyes were full of sincerity.

"Uncle Fei, don't you want to continue to help me?"

"King! It must not be called that again...... You're going to torture the old minister! ”

Fei Yi turned over and fell to the ground, but was immediately pulled up by Chu Jiangmian with both hands. He took his hand, felt skinny, and couldn't help but carry a lot of emotion in his voice.

"Uncle Fei, no matter what time it is, I will always remember those times when I was a teenager when I was picked up by you and galloped on horseback...... Now that your father has returned, you and several other uncles are also old. If you look at it personally, I hope you can retire with peace of mind and never have to worry about these messy things again. However, if the person standing in front of me now is Prime Minister Zhao Zhiguo, I would like you to stay and help me. I have many dreams, and if you don't work with me to fulfill them, I'm afraid it will be boring and lonely! ”

"But...... The old minister is already old and decaying, I am afraid that he will be entrusted by the king, and he is unbearable to drive! ”

"Does Uncle Fei really feel old? But why do I feel that your arm is still so strong? Are you really willing to retire to the forest and look at the upcoming world without being shocked? ”

Fei Yi, who was stared at directly by Chu Jiangmian's eyes, felt the blood in his heart surging up little by little. The corners of his mouth quivered.

"Does the king really think that the old minister can still use it again?"

"It's not that it can be used, but it's still useful! The legendary Taigong was nearly seventy years old before he met the Ming Lord, and the wind and clouds met and the world was in the world. Uncle Fei is only in his sixties this year. What's more, I have just taken over the throne, and I need you and a few other uncles to help me get on the horse and give me another ride...... I have a few words to give, I hope Uncle Fei can remember! ”

"The king, please speak, how dare the old minister not listen."

Chu Jiangmian held his hand tightly, and said earnestly word by word: "Although the turtle is long, there is still a time. The beetle snake rides the fog and eventually turns into ash. Lao Ji is in the woods, and his ambitions are thousands of miles. The martyrs are in their twilight years, and their hearts are ......! ”

"The old minister dares not to do his best to repay the king's trust!"

The old minister threw himself to the ground, his mood was agitated, and tears flowed. Chu Jiangmian secretly rubbed his forehead and breathed a long sigh of relief. Alas! Finally, I flickered into the best housekeeper, and I was much more worried about doing things in the future.
