Chapter 118: The Fall of the Qi Dynasty
"Someone!"
shouted twice in a row, but no one answered.
Emperor Liu Cheng was angry from his heart, "It seems that a few eunuchs who are not long-eyed have lost their lives today, what to do in the court today, have the prince's enemies been cleaned up." ”
Thinking confusedly, he struggled to get up and opened the door of the temple, only to find that there was no one outside.
At this time, Liu Cheng finally remembered that the Qi Dynasty had probably fallen, and he was even more besieged in Wushuang City, and he was no longer the supreme who held the power of life and death.
"But why is it so quiet?"
"By the way, what about them?"
Liu Cheng suddenly found that his personal guard was gone, and hurriedly looked at the dark place on the roof, and Yu Wan, who should have been hiding on it, was also gone.
Liu Cheng was really panicked at this time, and the fear of the unknown spread rapidly in his heart.
Hurriedly ran to the front of the temple and shouted, "Someone! ”
From around the corner, a person walked out, it was Yu Deqi, the chief eunuch.
"The emperor is awake? Let the old slave lead the way! ”
Yu Deqi gave up his hand in the direction of the Taichao Hall and led Liu Cheng forward.
Yu Deqi didn't look back, and Liu Cheng was like a puppet, being dragged to follow Yu Deqi.
Liu Cheng didn't dare to resist, the whole palace was as quiet as a cold pool, what happened to the night he slept peacefully, he wanted to run, but he was afraid that someone would suddenly appear and kill him.
Liu Cheng was very scared, so scared that his legs couldn't stop trembling, and he didn't dare to slow down, and he was even more afraid that he wouldn't be able to keep up with the slave in front of him who had been beaten and killed.
At this moment, Liu Cheng seemed to have returned to his youth, wandering in the rivers and lakes, trembling every day, for fear that he would lose his life one day, and the unwillingness in his heart to let fear gradually turn into the courage to fight to the death.
Until then, the arrival of Long Yu opened the door to a new era for him, and that time Liu Cheng won the gamble in exchange for supreme glory and power.
The transformation of life and death, the change of wealth and poverty, is not so easy to accept, Liu Cheng, who became the emperor, doubled the humiliation he suffered in the first half of his life to others, and the boundless killing eased the inner uneasiness slightly.
Unbeknownst to him, these killings did not wipe out all of his enemies, but instead left the seeds of revenge, and a force of extreme hatred quietly rose.
After a long journey, I walked to the Taichao Palace, and the scene was not so shocking.
Taishou Taibao Li Wei and Taishi Taibao Xue Chenghai, as usual, stood at the foot of the Jinluan steps, and the personal guards Lu Yu and Qiao Chu stood on both sides.
The slight difference is that there is a large table in front of the temple door, covered with a layer of canvas on the table, and the Taifu Taifu who is scattered with black gold and red clothes scattered all over the place to protect Dongcheng.
The imaginary Northern Regions coalition army was alone, and not a single flag appeared.
Maybe it's not that bad? Maybe Wushuang City can still hold on? Maybe there's a silver lining?
Liu Cheng, who had rekindled hope, asked tremblingly, "Ladies and gentlemen, Aiqing, what's going on?" ”
Yu Deqi helped Liu Cheng to sit on the dragon chair, and Li Wei bowed respectfully and said: "Your Majesty, Taifu Taifu defended Dongcheng to collaborate with the enemy at night, and was detained here by us, please make a decision!" ”
I don't have time to think about it, why do Wei Dongcheng and Feng Guifei collaborate with the enemy even though they are cousins? Why didn't you arrest the criminal department after collaborating with the enemy, but in the Taichao Palace? Why are all the guards gone? Why is there a big table in front of the palace?
Liu Cheng didn't dare to ask, and said covetously: "Then, then punish the Nine Clans!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Wei Dongcheng of Mu Ne had a hint of reaction, and struggled to get up, but was glanced at by Li Wei beside him and collapsed back.
The three princes have governed Wenchen for many years, and they have always been respectful and inferior, and some powerful people know the relationship between Wei Dongcheng and Feng Guifei, in the eyes of outsiders, even if Li Wei has more ideas, he can't suppress Wei Dongcheng, and at this moment, why is Wei Dongcheng so afraid of Li Wei that he doesn't dare to defend himself?
Li Wei heard Liu Cheng's words and smiled: "The emperor and Feng Guifei are one family, and Lord Wei and Feng Guifei are cousins, if you say that the nine clans, then are you counted, emperor?" ”
"Big .................."
Liu Wei wanted to say boldly, but swallowed back, the situation in front of him was too weird.
"Then, what did Master Li say?"
"The emperor Chrysostom said that he should do what he should do as a courtier, well, this is not a little ahead, I hope the emperor will not blame!"
Lu Yu lifted the canvas covering the table, and a bunch of heads were densely placed on it, all of which were the heads of Liu Cheng's harem concubines and princes, except for the second prince, the ninth prince, and the seventeenth prince, the heads of all Liu Cheng's princes and grandsons were on it.
Liu Chengcha, who just wanted to say "not to blame", saw this scene, and was so frightened that his soul flew away, his whole body was sore, and his already weak body was so shocked that a mouthful of blood oozed out of his lips.
"You, you rebels, actually, daringly, like this, Li Wei, you don't want to live anymore?"
Li Wei's eyes were full of abuse: "So what? ”
Liu Cheng pointed at Lu Yu and Qiao Chu: "Kill him for me!" ”
The two of them were motionless, Liu Cheng leaned on the dragon chair in a panic, waved his hand upward, and still did not move at all.
The meaning of abuse in Li Wei's eyes was even stronger, "The emperor is looking for 'extinction'?" ”
Li Wei waved his hand upward, and a figure flipped down, it was Yu Wan.
At this moment, Li Wei, Xue Chenghai, Lu Yu, Qiao Chu, Yu Wan, and Yu Deqi in the Taichao Hall surrounded Liu Cheng on the dragon chair, and looked at him like a dead man.
"You, you rebels, traitors, I treat you well, why do you treat me like this?"
"Why??"
"Why??"
"Why??"
"Why??"
Qiao Chu, Lu Yu, Li Wei, and Xue Chenghai seemed to be asking each other and asking themselves again.
"Does the emperor ever remember the Song Kingdom??"
"What, what Song Kingdom?"
"It's the Song Kingdom that lit the star!"
Liu Cheng said in a humble heart: "So what? ”
Li Wei smiled miserably and said: "The emperor surrendered but did not kill on the surface, but secretly he slaughtered all the people of the Song Kingdom without telling Lord Long!" If I knew this, even if I died in battle, I wouldn't surrender you, a bastard! ”
"You, you're from the Song Kingdom?"
"Not bad!"
"But I ............ it at the beginning"
"There will always be one or two fish that slip through the net, such as Wei Xian and me, who are in charge of the star lantern!"
“………………”
"There are so many people in the Song Kingdom, whether they are commoners or nobles, you refuse to let go, have you ever thought about today!"
Liu Cheng looked at Lu Yu and Qiao Chu longingly: "They are from the Song Kingdom, and they want to seek revenge from me, but you ............"
Lu Yu: "Does the emperor remember the Chu State?" ”
Qiao Chu: "Does the emperor remember Zhao Guo?" ”
Yu Deqi said slowly, "The Northern Regions Monarch asked the slave to greet the emperor, did you remember Youyou Wenhou, is the promise of the alliance still there?" ”
At that time, there were disputes in various parts of Kyushu, and after years of fighting, Liu Cheng gradually stood out by relying on the army of the dragon array, and many countries that did not want to cause disputes were looking forward to the great cause of reunification and surrendering to Liu Cheng, but they did not expect that what they would get in exchange for was not peace but the destruction of the country.
300,000 people in the Song Kingdom, both old and weak, women and children were killed.
Zhao killed 400,000 people, both old and weak, women and children.
700,000 people in the Chu State, whether they were old or weak, women and children, were killed.
The former monarch of the Northern Regions was killed, and the remnants fled to the border in a hurry.
The Qin Gate was destroyed, and the blood stained thousands of miles.
Tens of millions of people have been killed in other countries, large and small, and even some of the land has no grass and no people.
The lethality of the war was too strong, too strong, a fire, a knife cut, the common people were powerless to resist, the endless killing shocked everyone, and there were no hostile forces that dared to provoke this fierce person who was about to ascend the throne, so the Qi Dynasty was established.
On the surface, Liu Cheng is compassionate and can't bear the suffering of the people, but on the other hand, he kills to stop killing, frantically slaughtering all those who may stop him, and there are as many people who respect him as there are people who hate him.
As the biggest help, Long Yu must be hidden, but fortunately, the last battle made Long Yu seriously injured, giving him enough time to clean up the remaining "problems"!
God doesn't know, ghosts don't know, and Long Yu didn't find the accumulated white bones behind Liu Cheng, everything seems to be so beautiful and successful!
The countless wars and chaos have been calmed, the people live and work in peace and contentment, singing and dancing, and the heroes enjoy the glory and wealth of brocade clothes and jade food.
Thirty years have passed in a flash, and the people who have enjoyed the peaceful and prosperous times have long forgotten the country that once occupied various prefectures and counties, what Qinmen and Song Kingdom, maybe it was their fault in the first place, which led to the war for many years.
Only the children who were under the pillar of fire and the remnants of the dry well still remember the horrific scene of the tragic death of all their relatives at that time, and they could not dodge it even in their dreams, and every moment of every day hit their hearts deeply, and there was no peace for a moment.
The remnants of the people, without any power, how can they take revenge? How can we defeat the Qi Dynasty? Defeat the invincible dragon army in Kyushu?
Far away in the northern region, the country is destitute and facing cold and steep mountains, not to mention that even survival is a problem when it comes back to Kyushu.
Is this providence so cruel? No, by chance, Yu Yu Bai Ya saved a man who fainted in a cave, a man who was cornered by the rivers and lakes.
When this person woke up, he found that he had actually picked up a life, and he was full of emotion! But about the previous incident, this person refused to reveal a word, and he couldn't even tell his name, but he was concerned about the grace of saving his life, so he ............
"Benefactor, although there are some things that cannot be said to you explicitly, but the grace of saving lives should be repaid, if you have any wishes, I can help you realize them!"
At this time, Youyou's all thoughts are gone, there is no hope at all, and the only thing that there is is ......
"I just want revenge!"
Youyou Baiya also said in passing, it is impossible to expect a person who can't even save his life to overthrow the behemoth of the Qi Dynasty.
But when this person learned some news about the Qi Dynasty after a few days, he not only formulated a plan to overthrow the Qi Dynasty, but also brought a few people who could carry out the matter.
The Qi Dynasty is strong and talented, and hundreds of prefectures and counties in the entire land of Kyushu are in its hands, and it is definitely unwise to fight hard, not to mention that there is a terrifying Dragon Array Army.
What about the inside of the Keqi Dynasty? Is it really a monolith?
Liu Cheng is a sinister person who only knows killing, and many generals such as Long Yu are reckless, how can they build and govern a country?
First of all, he was sent two capable ministers to create a prosperous and powerful situation for him, and then changed his views step by step, so that he, who was already suspicious, was even more worried about the people around him, and even his own son.
Countless history books are in front of you, the imperial power is above, and anyone can be killed or opposed.
Year after year, the darkness in Liu Cheng's heart became stronger and clearer, and he finally made up his mind to lay the foundation for the crown prince and the future Liu family, and eliminate anyone who was threatening.
Kill, kill, kill! Kill everyone who might get in the way!
In the end, the only obstacle was Long Yu, who had the title of God of War, a person who wanted to move but didn't dare to move.
A lot of changes have happened in it, but the basic direction has not changed, and after everything is completed, Liu Cheng will eventually have no one to rely on, so it will be easy to defeat him and the Qi Dynasty.
Liu Cheng looked at the vengeful person in front of him, the anger in his heart was indescribable, and shouted at Li Wei: "Then, what about those princes, and how many of my children are also your ............?" ”
Li Wei straightened up at this time, stroked his beard and laughed: "Yes, the princes under the emperor's knees, the second prince has the ambition of civil and military, the city of the Nine Emperors is extremely deep, and the seventeenth prince is talented, if the three of them become the princes and supervise the dynasty to protect the country, we can't control it, we can only take a step ahead and let them ..................!" ”
After hearing this, Liu Cheng beat his chest and paused, regretting that he was not at the beginning, in order to take into account the righteousness of the name, in order to abide by the way of heaven, he personally destroyed the hope of the Qi Dynasty.
Yikes!
A black sword pierced through his heart, it was the "ape sorrow" that he had worked so hard to get at the beginning, and the sword-bearer was also the person he relied on the most, guarding Lu Yu personally.
Liu Cheng, who was about to die, was broken by the power heart of the blood, and there was no life, when he was dying, thinking back to the past, the person he relied on the most in this life, I don't know when he became this Lu Yu who had just met for a short time, shouldn't it be him?
"What about my royal brother? Why don't you come to the rescue? ”
The blood in his body collapsed and flowed in all directions, blocking Liu Cheng's throat, and the corners of his mouth opened, but he didn't make any sound.
"Yes, if I want to kill him, he won't come to save me again!"
As if he suddenly woke up, the voice that had been lingering in Liu Cheng's heart finally dissipated, and he could better see who he should rely on.
Relieved, Liu Cheng left a line of tears, Liu Cheng, who had not cried since he was a child, at this time, it was not for himself.
"I'm sorry, Brother Long, maybe I won't see you again in the next life!"
Liu Cheng didn't struggle in the end, and slowly closed his eyes.
In the year 3632 of the era, the Qi Dynasty fell!
