The fire burned for a full hour before it was put out collectively by the soldiers brought by Lu Xiangsheng.

After searching for a while, they only found two charred corpses in the guest room, as well as passengers who had been killed in other rooms.

Not to mention those innocent travelers, but I saw Wei Zhongxian in the guest room.

The two charred corpses hugged each other tightly, with ferocious faces. It was impossible to tell who was Wei Zhongxian and who was Cao Huachun.

Lu Xiangsheng was half-kneeling on the ground, staring blankly, his heart agitated.

Cao Huachun, Cao Huachun, why are you doing this?

If you don't let me go in with you, you will lose a life!

"Huh... please restrain these two corpses and return to the capital to find the widower to check their identity!"

Lu Xiangsheng sighed, stood up, glanced at the charred inn, and was about to withdraw his troops and leave.

"General..."

Unexpectedly, a Qianhu came over quietly and said in a low voice: "We...we searched all over the place for dead bodies. We also searched for more than ten miles in the southeast, northwest, and we couldn't find the whereabouts of Shen Lian and the four others at all."

"If I go back...how will I explain it to the emperor?"

Ok?

Lu Xiangsheng became more and more irritable after hearing this.

Everything was a bad thing caused by Cao Huachun. How come you have died a hundred times and I am the only one left to take the blame.

I don't know whether those four people were in Wei Zhongxian's team or not.

After returning home, should I report the truth, or...

"General!"

Just when Lu Xiangsheng was irritable, Qianhu lowered his voice again.

"How about we follow Eunuch Cao's method and kill the good and take credit for it?"

Lu Xiangsheng stared suddenly, clenching the Guan Gong sword in his hand.

"You fucking mention these four words in front of Lu again! Lu will chop off your head!"

The Qianhu fell to their knees in fright and started crying.

"General Lu!"

"Even if you cut off the head of the humble minister, the humble minister will still say it."

"We mobilized troops and traveled thousands of miles to hunt down the rebels. Not only did we fail to find the rebels, but two eunuchs were also killed."

"What's more important is that the forty carts are still empty!"

"No one was caught, and Qian Qian didn't stop him. This matter has reached the ears of the emperor. What should we do?"

"The Emperor has decreed that you may be fine, but our heads have to be moved!"

"General, please help me wait for the sake of my wife and children..."

As soon as he said this, not only the thousands of households knelt down, but also more soldiers knelt down and looked at Lu Xiangsheng with panic on their faces.

You must know that when the new emperor ascends the throne, it is the time when millions of soldiers in the south of the Yangtze River are killed, and the sword on his waist is still bloody.

If he was angered at this time, no one would have to imagine what would happen to him in the future.

"You...you guys!"

Lu Xiangsheng was stunned when he saw this and did not dare to scold him.

He understands perfectly.

If you continue to insist on it blindly, you will only alienate everyone.

"Then you can't kill a good person and take credit! This is the general's bottom line!"

Lu Xiangsheng turned his head angrily, and everyone was overjoyed when they heard this.

"There's no need to kill good people and take credit for it, General."

"So many people were burned to death tonight, why don't we just take a few away?"

"In my humble position, I also discovered that the two children of the innkeeper also died in the fire. As long as we dress up a little, we will... we will be able to hide it from the truth!"

Lu Xiangsheng turned his head, looked at the other burned corpses in the inn, and finally sighed.

"You...just figure it out!"

After saying that, he took the lead in riding his tall horse and left alone.

When everyone saw General Lu agreeing to take the credit, they got up and packed up after a burst of ecstasy.

Not long after, everyone left the small Fucheng County.

It was already a quarter past three o'clock in the morning, and it was almost dawn.

Seeing a large number of officers and soldiers leaving, the people with a radius of one thousand meters finally dared to come back to check.

When they saw the inn that had been burned to charcoal, they were all stunned.

There was a scholar in the crowd who looked happy when he saw this scene.

Outside the smoke-filled inn, he started singing again.

That song was specially composed for the 9,000-year-old Wei Zhongxian [The Soul-breaking Song of the Fifth Geng].

Singing it at the fifth watch is so appropriate for the occasion.

"Fifth watch, desolate..."

"It's noisy, people are urging people to get up, and the weather is at the fifth watch...

"Han Yueying is accompanying him, and the one shouting is the horse's neigh..."

"..."

"It seems so desolate, so..."

"It's better to die!"

The fifth update has arrived.

The song ends, the soul is broken!

With the death of Wei Zhongxian, the Age of Apocalypse came to an end.

……

at the same time.

At three o'clock in the Yin hour, it is just about to dawn.

"What are you doing? What are you doing?!"

Ke Yinyue was sleeping in a private house in the capital when a group of Dongchang fans broke into the house.

The old woman, with disheveled hair, was pulled out of the house without any explanation and taken to the inner city clothing bureau.

"Where are you in charge? Say something! How dare you be so rude to my wife! Wei Zhongxian has just left, are you going to rebel?"

Ke Yinyue didn't know what happened, but still yelled angrily.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he cursed a few words, a Dongchang fan hit him on the patellas of both legs with a stick.

"what……"

Ke Yinyue immediately knelt down in pain and kept wailing.

A ceremonial eunuch dressed in red finally appeared, standing in front of Ke Yinyue with a smile on his face.

"Holy Madam, please kneel down to receive His Majesty's instructions!"

"What...what the fuck is the oracle?!!"

Ke Yinyue still screamed in pain and cursed.

"Little emperor! What instructions are you giving me? When I was feeding your brother the milk, you weren't even born yet! Your brother just died, are you going to disrespect me?"

The eunuch's face tightened when he saw how noisy the girls were.

"Be bold, Palm! Let her live in peace!"

Snapped!

Dongchang Fanzi on the side hit him with another stick, directly smashing Ke Yinyue's teeth.

Ke Yinyue couldn't say a word anymore, her mouth was full of blood, and she knelt on the ground and kept making whimpering sounds.

The eunuch smiled again and bowed slightly in the direction of the palace.

"Holy Holy Gong!"

Then he turned around and looked at Ke Yinyue sternly.

"Hakka's Yinyue was the former emperor's wet nurse. She was restless in her duties and caused chaos in the palace. She was jealous and feared that she would fall out of favor. She summoned palace officials to beat the former queen on her waist, damaging her fetus and murdering the royal family's descendants."

"We also got eight people from the palace to take charge of their duties, so that they could go in and out of Yeting. Many of them would bring their attendants, and they planned to become the story of Lu Buwei and Li Yuan."

"The evidence is conclusive and the crime cannot be punished. He will be killed immediately with a stick and raped to death to serve as a warning to others..."

After the eunuch finished speaking, he waved his hand with a cold face.

Several Dongchang fans on the side were already prepared and immediately raised their water and fire sticks.

When Ke Yinyue learned that she was going to be killed with a stick, her eyes widened in horror.

She wanted to scream, complain, and beg for mercy, but unfortunately all her teeth were missing and she couldn't say a word.

At this moment, perhaps she deeply regretted why she didn't listen to Wei Zhongxian and leave as soon as possible.

Now, it's too late to say anything.

Bang bang bang!

As the water and fire sticks continued to fall on Ke Yinyue's head, forehead, and torso.

In just a dozen sticks, this vicious woman who enjoyed a lifetime of blessings, killed two princes and two princesses, and was protected by Zhu Youxiao even before she died.

Finally killed!

"Father-in-law, the guilty woman is dead. I would like to ask my father-in-law to check."

Dongchang fanzi reported softly, and the eunuch stared at him.

"He died after only a dozen sticks? What kind of job are you doing? His Majesty has ordered that he must be beaten with at least three hundred sticks. Let us continue to beat him!"

Several Dongchang fans trembled when they heard this.

Three hundred sticks.

Everything has to be ketchup.

But seeing the chill on the eunuch's face, everyone could only nod in agreement.

In the early morning, the sound of water and fire sticks beating against flesh resounded throughout the Huanyi Bureau.

Still at the same time.

A brutal and bloody purge officially began.

A large number of Dongchang fanzi and Jinyiwei from the North and South Town Fusi constantly broke into the major mansions in the capital.

Wei Zhongxian's nephew, Ning Guogong Wei Liangqing, arrest him!

Ke Yinyue's son, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, Hou Guoxing, arrest him!

Five tigers, five young men, ten children and forty grandchildren, Tian Ji, Wu Chunfu, Ni Wenhuan, Tian Ergeng, Xu Xianchun, Cui Yingyuan, Sun Yunhe...

There's a bunch of people waiting, catch them!

A large-scale arrest operation was carried out. The eunuchs fell apart in an instant and the entire army was wiped out!

The spacious prison was overcrowded for a while, and cries and begging for mercy could be heard everywhere.

But no one noticed.

In a certain cell, two figures were talking softly.
