Chapter 6: The Breakdown of the Country

Soon after, the emperor breathed. Only Xiang'er was left sitting on the stool, dreaming of the world. It's a pity that this dream is not destined to come true.

"Who's making noise here?"

A burst of voices from outside the hall pulled the dreaming Xiang'er back to reality, and she said unhappily.

When she was about to go out and have a look, she saw several people break in. The leader is her beloved, Shen Yan.

The ministers saw such a scene when they broke in. The Emperor's eyes widened, spitting blood, apparently dead. And his murderer is also clear at a glance, after all, there is no one else in this house except for the Xiang concubine, who else is not her? Could it be a ghost?

"Concubine Xiang, did you kill the emperor?"

Shen Yan smiled with satisfaction when he saw this scene, but this smile was fleeting. He changed his face to surprise and questioned Na Xiang'er loudly.

"Obviously it is." That Xiang'er was trying to explain what he meant by Shen Yan. But before the words could be spoken, he was kicked by Shen Yan.

"Someone."

Shen Yan glanced at Xiang'er, who was kicked to the ground by himself, with a cold face, and then called the eunuch guarding the door in. The little eunuchs were also frightened when they saw this, and asked tremblingly:

"What do you command?"

"Concubine Xiang plotted to kill the emperor and dragged him out and beheaded him." Shen Yan's words fell on Na Xiang'er like a bomb. Xiang'er looked at her lover and asked:

"It's clear that you said it."

"Why don't you take Concubine Xiang, the culprit, down and leave her here waiting for her to bite at will?" Shen Yan gave the order without waiting for Xiang'er to finish speaking, and the eunuchs were a little chilled by the look. hurriedly took the Xiang concubine down.

"Lord Shen, this."

The few that Shen Yan brought in were all from Shen Yan's party. The fact that he will come here today is also what he said to meet the emperor in person, and now that this kind of thing has happened, they don't know what to do.

"Naturally, the two princes were notified of the funeral."

Shen Yan said lightly, and then left the hall.

According to historical records, in March of the 28th year of Yuan Qi, Lu Yi, the emperor of Qi State, died at the hands of his favorite concubine Xiang.

The first emperor died, and Prime Minister Shen Yan led 8,000 soldiers to force the palace during his funeral, intending to seek the throne. was intercepted by the Praetorian Guards led by the second prince Lu Bai, and failed to force the palace, and Shen Yan was ambushed on the spot. The Shen family was connected to the nine clans.

After the funeral of the first emperor, the crown prince Lu Yan ascended the throne in the chaos. And Chen and Zhao took advantage of the chaos of Qi to invade Qi again, and the border of Qi was broken. Qi State, in danger.

The two kingdoms captured many cities in one fell swoop, and approached the imperial city.

"I commanded everyone to abandon the city and flee. Those who violate the order will be killed. After all, Lu Yan couldn't bear to let the people in this city die with him, but chose to let them flee separately. And he chose to stick to it. In the end, the Qi State was broken by the two kingdoms of Zhao and Chen, and the Tianqi Dynasty, which had ruled the Central Plains for hundreds of years, also collapsed in an instant.

On the other side, Lu Bai was wearing a sky-blue brocade robe, while Qianying behind him was wearing a black robe. The two of them walked in the suburbs, and after walking for a long time, Thousand Shadows finally spoke.

"Temple... Childe, where are we going? "Three days ago, the imperial city of Qi was breached by the army of Zhao and Chen. Lu Yan told Qianying about the secret passage in the palace, and let Qianying escape with Lu Bai.

"Yue Guo." Lu Bai glanced at the thousand shadows behind him, and finally opened his mouth.
