Facts have proved that the first emperor's vision is indeed good, Prince Zhong is not the material of the emperor of a country, and he will never be the opponent of the Holy Emperor. 【】{Starter}

The last vestige of Prince Zhong's spirit was drained, and he did not doubt the authenticity of this edict, because at this time, there was no need for the Holy Emperor to make this kind of fake to deceive him. originally thought that his own things were robbed, so he came to fight for it with confidence, originally thought that he was the emperor's favorite son, but he was framed by a traitor. Unexpectedly, in the heart of the emperor, he turned out to be such a character.

What else is there to insist on? What is the point of making a comeback? It is not his, so why force it?

At this moment, Prince Zhong was discouraged, he pulled out the sword at his waist, and shouted: "The destiny is not in me, what can I do." Then he swung his blade and slashed himself in the neck.

Blood sprayed out in an instant, forming a poignant trail in mid-air.

Prince Zhong died, a generation of heroes, and died in Si.

The audience was stunned. Song Xingyun, the king of Kangjun, was so close to him that he didn't have time to stop him, which shows how resolute his will to die is.

As the so-called tree fell and scattered, Prince Zhong died, and the dragons were leaderless, the 20,000 cavalry under his command naturally had no intention of fighting, and under the coercion of the Storm Legion and the Golden Feather Knight, they threw away their weapons and surrendered. Song Xingyun, the king of Kangjun, as well as the old duke Levi, the earl of Levikang, and General Li Ke, seeing that the general situation was gone, also laid down their weapons and let the soldiers of the Praetorian Guard tie them up and imprison them.

In fact, the remnants of Duke Levi's subordinates originally wanted to protect him and escape with a bloody path, but the old duke gave up at the last moment.

He pushed away the chief guard who was guarding him covered in blood, and then threw away the long sword, with a proud expression on his face, the old duke at this moment,. It is completely a true aristocratic style.

"How can the people of the Li family flee like lost dogs. Disgraced the prestige of the ancestors?"

After saying that, the old duke looked at the guards who rushed up, stood tall, and was quickly caught. The rope was added, and he sneered and said nothing. He glanced at the direction where Prince Zhong had fallen just now, and sighed: "The shaft is not enough to conspiracy." ”

And the coup rebellion, with Prince Zhong's self-murder and the capture of the old duke, the overall situation has been decided.

On the birthday of the Queen Mother in the 376th year of the Holy Lion Empire, the imperial capital was in turmoil, Prince Song Xingchen mutinied the imperial city, and tens of thousands of rebels besieged the palace. The Holy Emperor Song Xingtian used the soldiers of the chat, with the help of the Alchemist Guild, to unite the remnants of the Janissary Guard and the Department of Public Security to fight back, and after the melee, the Holy Emperor read out the edict of the emperor, and the rebel army collapsed.

Prince Zhong shouted: "The destiny of heaven does not belong to me, what can I do in vain?" After speaking, he drew his sword and killed himself on his horse, his subordinates mourned, dozens of people died, and the rest of the troops surrendered.

In addition, the rest of the rebellious troops, including Duke Levi, the king of Kangjun, and the rest were captured. King Qin's army suppressed the rebels, more than 4,000 heads, more than 10,000 prisoners, the rebellion of the imperial capital, three days of peace.

- Annals of the Empire, Chapter 8, Chapter 13

This is the record of this coup d'état in the official historical documents of the empire that year, and in the whole text, there is no mention of the southern army of the war dragon, nor does it mention the name of Song Li, the king of Lijun. However, it highlights the wisdom and courage of the Holy Emperor, and the deep meaning of it naturally does not need to be explained.

"Actually, he didn't have to kill himself. Song Li looked at Prince Zhong's corpse thoughtfully.

Buckets of water were poured down, and after thousands of people were busy, the blood stains in the Triumph Square under the imperial city had been washed away, and the soldiers who walked back and forth with serious faces were all wearing the uniforms of the garrison of the Public Security Division, and their expressions were awe-inspiring, as if they were facing a great enemy.

At his feet, Prince Zhong's body was covered with a holy lion flag - this is the tradition of the royal family of the Holy Lion Empire, no matter what, no matter what crimes were committed during his lifetime, after the death of the royal family, he must be buried under the imperial flag, this is the special treatment of the royal family - "flag burial".

Even if he is a rebel, but if he is not officially convicted for a day, the Holy Lion Banner on his body cannot be taken down.

The blood stains of the corpse seeped into the Holy Lion Banner, and the lion pattern on the flag seemed to have a little bit of red blood.

The Holy Emperor was standing beside Song Li, his expression didn't seem to be able to tell what he was thinking, but after listening to Song Li's words, the Holy Emperor turned his face sideways and glanced at Song Li: "Oh, what did you say?"

"I said, actually, he could not have killed himself. Song Li said lightly: "If you don't read the edict of the emperor at that time, he may surrender." The content of the edict of the first emperor destroyed his last defense, and at that time, he was already bored. Because, everything he believed in before completely collapsed. ”

Song Li looked at the Holy Emperor deeply and said in a low voice, "You read the Holy Decree at that time just to force him to commit suicide, isn't it?"

His gaze was like electricity, and he looked at the Holy Emperor tightly, the Holy Emperor looked calm, looked back at Song Li deeply, and then dropped a sentence, turned around and left slowly.

"Why do you have to ask me again, if you've already guessed it?"

Song Lixin said, it's none of my business why Prince Zhong dies, but I just want to tell you in person. Let you understand that you are not the only smart person in this world.

He had to admit that such a choice of the Holy Emperor was the wisest.

Prince Zhong's identity is very sensitive, although he has committed the crime of rebellion, he still has many henchmen and supporters in the government and the opposition, and if he surrenders, he will be killed by the Holy Emperor. Those remnants of his forces will more or less have a grudge against the Holy Emperor, and they may set off a wave of revenge. In addition, he is the bloodline of the royal family after all, and the Holy Emperor's own brother, no matter what he says, raising the butcher's knife to his brother is always criticized.

If Prince Chung committed suicide, it would be a different story. It is very likely that his henchmen will die down. And the Holy Emperor doesn't have to have a bad reputation for slaughtering blood relatives.

The Holy Emperor read the edict of the Emperor at the last moment, seemingly wanting Prince Zhong to understand the past, but the actual purpose was to make him lose all thoughts and cut himself off.

As it turned out, Prince Zhong was once again calculated by him. From beginning to end, he was in the hands of the Holy Emperor, and he was led by the nose.

Song Li had to admit that the Holy Emperor was a born politician.

The chaos was calmed down, and the Imperial City Guardian Circle was closed. The Holy Emperor first sent a proclamation to appease the people. Families who have lost their population in the mutiny are shown mercy as appropriate.

After that, the Holy Emperor quickly rectified the Imperial City Guards, and everyone was strictly investigated, and during the mutiny, the undercover agents hidden in the Golden Feather Knight caused him to lose five thousand elites, which made the Holy Emperor very annoyed. He believed that there must still be Prince Zhong's henchmen lurking in the Imperial City Praetorian Guard, so he stepped up his efforts to investigate.

Under the careful investigation and covert visits, a group of hidden undercover agents were uncovered, and a long list of them was drawn from their mouths, and the Holy Emperor did not hesitate to order the beheading of these hidden undercover agents. There must be manslaughter in this, but in line with the principle of preferring to kill by mistake rather than letting go, the Holy Emperor can only do this.

In this **** purge, the Imperial City Praetorian Guard lost more than 3,000 people, plus the battle damage under the city tower, 30,000 golden feather iron cavalry, and more than 8,000 people. It's a nerve-wracking number. Therefore, His Majesty the Holy Emperor ordered that some of the innocent elites from the garrison army and local armies should be drawn to supplement the losses of the Imperial City Praetorian Guard.

It is worth mentioning that although the five thousand golden-feathered knights equipped with Heavenly Ugin were all killed in battle, their weapons and armor were not damaged. Therefore, the Holy Emperor used these weapons and armor to re-equip 5,000 men and horses, and the leader of this group of men and horses was none other than Miller, the deputy commander of the Imperial City Praetorian Guard.

In this operation to investigate the undercover agent, Miller made a great effort with his unique wisdom and calmness. And in the defense of the Imperial City, he was responsible for guarding the hub protection of the magic circle, and he also completed it very well. The Imperial City Praetorian Guard suffered heavy losses, and it was the time to employ people, and Miller won the trust of the Holy Emperor with his outstanding performance.

Everyone knows that this elite army equipped with Heavenly Ugin weapons is the arrow unit of the Golden Feather Knights, and being able to lead such an army, Miller's status in the Imperial City Praetorian Guard has risen rapidly. Although his position is still the deputy commander of the Metropolitan Guard, his importance is faintly in opposition to the Commander of the Metropolitan Guard.

The Holy Emperor had previously suspected that Miller and Song Li were on good terms, but since Song Li and Miller's brother-in-law Ge Teng clashed, this suspicion was gradually dispelled. Of course, during this period, he also secretly sent people to monitor Miller's every move, and found that Miller and Song Li had no contact. That's when I was relieved.

He believed in Miller's loyalty to the royal family, and although Miller had been born and died with Song Li in the Stiran Desert, it was all for official business, and it did not mean that they would necessarily have a personal relationship.

Although the Holy Emperor is good at calculations and the city is extremely deep, he is not an immortal after all, and there are times when he misses calculations. Naturally, he wouldn't know that Miller had already taken refuge in Song Li with sincerity.

At the same time as reorganizing the Imperial City Janissaries, the Ministry of War also reorganized the two units of the City Guards and the Guards. Although both forces were technically rebels, most of the soldiers were only following the orders of their commanders, and they were being used.

For these soldiers, of course, they cannot be wiped out. It's just that they are scattered and assigned to the local troops, educated and observed for a period of time, and if there is really no problem, they can be reactivated. From among the local troops, excellent soldiers were drawn to enrich the city guards and guards. Through this mutiny, the Holy Emperor also had the opportunity to carry out a drastic reform of the imperial capital's defense forces, and now, he was finally convinced that the Holy Lion City was under his control.

While reorganizing the army, the edicts of the Holy Emperor were handed down like a stream. （http：／/.)。

The first was the order to deal with the important ministers involved in the rebellion: Prince Zhong was officially recognized as the leader of the rebellion, and according to the law, he was exterminated from the royal family. Although Prince Zhong was afraid of his crimes, his crimes were still unavoidable, he should have raided his family and his family, and he should exterminate his clan. It's just that he originally belonged to the royal bloodline, and the extermination of the clan naturally couldn't implicate the Song family, but was limited to his family.

Prince Zhong, who had been in power since the time of the prince, was finally completely destroyed. The Holy Lion Empire has also returned to normal order from the situation of two heroes competing for hegemony.

King Song Xingguang of Jing, King Song Xingyun of Kangjun, as important leaders of the traitorous party, could not escape from the charge of rebellion. However, the Holy Emperor opened up to them, and did not wipe them out with a butcher's knife, but cut off the title and sentenced him to life imprisonment, and his descendants were assigned to the army, and he was never allowed to return to the imperial capital.

Whatever the purpose, the Holy Emperor has not done too much in this regard. At the very least, he didn't bear the infamy of slaughtering his brothers.
