Chapter Eighty-Nine: Fire Rises on All Sides 2
"Rebel, what are you doing?"
Huang Qinghua let out a roar as a father, in his heart.
Emperor Qinghua is the king of a country, shouldering the top and bottom of Daheng, he needs to be cold-blooded and ruthless, and he needs to give up others for the interests of Daheng.
But before the identity of the emperor, he had another identity, he was a father.
Blood and family affection are melted in blood and engraved in the bones, and Rao is Emperor Qinghua can't escape. He actually has deep feelings for Huang Hao, a rebel. Even before, he had thought about giving up the throne and giving up to Huang Hao.
Committing the heinous crime of plotting to usurp the throne has made Emperor Qinghua not know whether to keep the only bloodline of the Daheng royal family. But after all, it is a family affair to plot and go, as long as Emperor Qinghua is willing to spare Huang Hao's life, imprison him in a certain palace for a few years, and let him out again when the ministers and people forget about it.
Not now, Huang Hao is digging the foundation laid by his ancestors.
After a fire, after the prosperous imperial capital turned into ruins, can it still be called the first capital in the world? And the bones buried under the ruins will make many people who yearn for the imperial capital change their minds? When the bones are not cold, how can the surviving people live in peace when their families are ruined?
Huang Hao is seeking his own death, and he is undoubtedly pushing himself to a dead end.
Emperor Qinghua knew that if Huang Hao really did what he expected, even if he was willing to forgive him, the people who died because he died would not forgive him under Jiuquan, the officials who were like a river would not forgive him, and the angry people who lost their homes would not forgive him.
There was a long sigh in his heart, and the sorrow urged people to grow old and seize their youth.
The wrinkles at the corners of Emperor Qinghua's eyes seemed to be a little deeper in a trance, he was a father, but in addition to his responsibilities as a father, he had more important things to shoulder.
He is the king of Daheng, and he needs to be cold-blooded and ruthless, even if his hands need to be stained with the blood of his parents and sons.
There was a "whoosh" sound, and the powerful arrows came from nowhere, but this time their target was changed, and they were no longer ordinary soldiers.
A guard beside Emperor Qinghua reacted extremely quickly and shouted: "Protect Your Majesty." ”
The guards are not flustered, they can serve as the personal guards of Emperor Qinghua, they are extraordinary. When the knife fell, the arrows were cut to the ground.
"Here we go again." The first guard has excellent ear power.
The guards surrounded Emperor Qinghua in the middle, and unless the enemy could fly away, they had to pass through them before they could hurt Emperor Qinghua.
However, this enemy attack was unusual. What they were holding in their hands was clearly a divine machine crossbow that only the Tianlin Army's fish scale shield array was equipped with.
Dozens of sharp arrows erupted one after another, and when Emperor Qinghua saw the arrow of the guard in front of him, he immediately pushed him behind him, snatched the long knife in his hand, and waved his knife to block several sharp arrows.
The emperor who guarded the world on horseback was worthy of his name, and the flying arrows could not get close to Emperor Qinghua's body at all, and they were swept down by him with long knives one by one, and some were even directly cut off by him.
"Over there." Emperor Qinghua's hearing and eyesight were still very strong, and he soon identified the place where the arrow was fired.
The soldiers beside him heard this and immediately surrounded him. There are not many enemies, only a handful, and they can still make waves by hiding in the shadows, and after being besieged by the soldiers who found them, they quickly became corpses on the ground.
Huang Hao did a very good job of secrecy, and all the prisoners he had captured just now were ignorant of anything. They only knew where they had been sent to ambush for how long, and the reason for that was unknown.
So, the captured captives are useless.
"Kill them all."
The knife fell, several pillars of blood gushed out, and there were several more corpses on the ground as decorations.

He led the army for a long time before he came to the place where the scouts said there was a lot of fire.
It's been a long time since the scouts debriefed, but the fire is still going, even a little stronger than before. More and more houses were affected by the pond fish, and the spreading fire became the biggest obstacle to the way forward.
"Your Majesty, we have caught a few civilians in front of us, who claim to be the occupants of this house." The soldiers sent by Emperor Qinghua to investigate came back to report.
"Bring them up."
The soldiers brought in a few honest-looking people, whose faces were covered with black ash, and it seemed that they had been here for a long time.
Where have the little people who have been facing the loess with their backs to the sky for half their lives seen this battle, and they feel that the old man in the purple robe in front of him is probably a big official, so he knelt down and saluted with interest.
"Hello sir."
Looking at the honest and lovely faces of the people under his rule, the haze accumulated in Emperor Qinghua's chest was temporarily swept away, and he personally helped an old man up.
Seeing that the fire was getting stronger and stronger, Emperor Qinghua asked, "How many residents are here?" Do you know what's going on with this fire? ”
As soon as Emperor Qinghua asked, several people opened the talking gates.
"Well, the one in front is the villain's house."
"This fire is probably done by the soldiers last night, and my mother-in-law said that they kept an eye on my house. Hey, I thought I had a crush on my mother-in-law. ”
"Just like your mother-in-law?"
"My mother-in-law still tastes ...... at night"
The guards next to Emperor Qinghua really couldn't stand it, these people didn't have a door in their mouths, and they jumped out of everything they said. His Majesty Qinghua can't be defiled, and the guard shouted softly: "Shut up." ”
Only then did a few people know that they had converged, and the look on their faces flew back and they turned back to their original honest appearance.
After listening to their gossip for a long time, Emperor Qinghua also inquired about what he wanted to explore, so he let a few people go back to stay where they were.
On the way back, a few people secretly asked the soldier next to them, "What kind of official is that strange-looking old man just now?" ”
The soldier who was questioned said: "Bold, that's Your Majesty Qinghua." ”
"Ahh The old man turned out to be His Majesty Qinghua, and knelt down a few times, but it was a pity that Emperor Qinghua had now moved elsewhere, and he couldn't see their surprise and couldn't hear them say long live.
