Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain

If Jiang Xun had listened to Qu Ruchen's warning back then, perhaps he would not have ended up like that.

"If it was just to prove himself, he has already succeeded." Qu Ruchen continued, "But why did he want to destroy everything with his own hands?"

Qu Ruchen's words did not completely resolve Jiang Xue's doubts.

"I have been in seclusion in the sect for many years and don't know much about the outside world. If you want to know more details, you can ask this person." As the words fell, a figure walked out of the shadows - it was Changle Taiwei Meng Chunyi!

"General Meng!" Jiang Xue said in surprise.

I didn't expect Meng Chunyi to appear here.

"Your Highness, you are finally back." The old general knelt down on one knee excitedly and welcomed the princess with the most solemn etiquette.

"General Meng, please stand up. You are the general most trusted by my father. I really cannot afford such a great gift."

Jiang Xue hurried forward to help Meng Chunyi up, and vaguely saw tears in his eyes.

The veteran had been someone she respected since childhood.

He was a companion who grew up with the emperor's father, and was also a witness to her and her brother's growth.

In Jiang Xue's memory, General Meng has always been a strong and unyielding man. He always grits his teeth and perseveres when facing difficulties. She has never seen him so emotional.

"General Meng, why are you here?" The Five Poison Sect is surrounded by miasma, and General Meng has never had anything to do with the Sect, so his appearance is puzzling.

"I am ashamed. I was chased here and only escaped thanks to the help of High Priest Qu." Meng Chunyi sighed:

"After King Yuan ascended the throne, he knew nothing about governing the country and handed over all government affairs to eunuchs and some treacherous officials. Since the war between the North and the South, Changle has been suppressed by Beiling, and other countries have also taken the opportunity to suppress us.

The people lived in poverty and complained everywhere, but King Yuan was only concerned with pleasure and even planned to cede the country to the enemy and provide a hiding place for the enemy.

After General Wu Lao and I learned about this, we wrote a letter to advise the emperor, but we were forbidden to submit our petition and lost our voice for half a year.

In order to stop these evil deeds, I took the initiative to destroy those strongholds, but unfortunately the news leaked out, and King Yuan ordered to get rid of me. This is how I mistakenly entered this five-poison miasma. "

Hearing this, Jiang Xue's face became solemn. She couldn't believe that the kingdom her father had worked so hard to build would be destroyed by such a person who was only interested in pleasure and didn't care about the lives of the people.

"What a short-sighted person," Xiao Zhan said calmly, "If this continues, Changle will collapse within two years."

"That's why I asked Lingdie to bring you here." Qu Ruchen explained, and she adjusted her sitting position:

"The Holy Church has been able to remain stable for ten years because Jiang Xun created a peaceful and prosperous era. Now Jiang Qiyuan dares to invade our land. We must take action."

For the Five Poisons Sect, Changle's survival is related to their own destiny.

The disputes in the martial arts world ten years ago had caused great damage to the Holy Church. Fortunately, with the help of Jiang Xun, it had a chance to recover.

Now, whether out of justice or personal feelings, Qu Ruchen decided to support Jiang Xue.

"Jiang Qiyuan has been in power for only two years, and Changle is already in such a state. It's time to return everything to its original owner." Jiang Xue said softly, then turned to Meng Chunyi: "I heard that you plan to recall the Third Division of the Tieyun Army?"

"That's true." Seeing Jiang Xue's determined eyes, Meng Chunyi felt a little relieved.

"So how's it going now?"

"The third squadron commanded by Yunqi is still stationed at the border and has not returned to the capital. I have tried various methods to ask King Yuan to recall them, but all requests have been ignored."

"This is not difficult to solve." Qu Ruchen interrupted, "Since the Tieyun Army only obeys the direct descendants, then let Jiang Xue give the order directly without the approval of Prince Yuan."

However, Meng Chunyi frowned and said, "To mobilize the army, you need the tiger talisman, and the tiger talisman is kept strictly by Prince Yuan. No one knows where it is except Prince Yuan. Without the tiger talisman, even if the princess comes in person, she cannot mobilize the Iron Cloud Army."

This is where the real difficulty lies.

Xiao Zhan smiled slightly, took a step forward, and spread out his palm. In his hand lay a tiger-shaped token.

Meng Chunyi immediately recognized that it was the tiger talisman they urgently needed. "How is this possible?" He wondered, how did the tiger talisman end up in the hands of Prince Gong?

Jiang Xue stared at the tiger talisman, and the chaotic scene on the west gate tower emerged in her mind. It must have fallen at that time. "Have you been carrying it with you?" She took the tiger talisman and asked softly.

"Yes, I wanted to give it to you earlier, but I was too busy and neglected it." Xiao Zhan replied. Thanks to the mention of the general today, he remembered that he had the tiger talisman hidden in his arms that he wanted to return to Jiang Xue.

Qu Ruchen asked: "With the support of the tiger talisman and the heir, it should be easy to recall Bai Yunqi now, right?"

Jiang Xue shook her head and said, "No, Bai Yunqi cannot withdraw without reason. There are many enemies. If the Tieyun Army moves without Jiang Qiyuan's order, we may be attacked. Therefore, we must wait for Jiang Qiyuan's order."

"Then what are you going to do?" Qu Ruchen asked with his arms folded across his chest.

Jiang Xue showed a cunning look at her lips: "Jiang Qiyuan is afraid of death. As long as his life is threatened, he will naturally call Bai Yunqi back to protect himself."

A few days later, the Qian Kingdom held a ceremony to worship the heaven. The emperor drove through the market to the altar in the suburbs. Jiang Qiyuan was holding a beautiful concubine in his chariot, and his behavior was dissolute.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Xue still found it unbearable to watch even with the curtain blocking her view.

"Princess, everything is ready." Mo Tian whispered, wearing a bamboo hat.

Jiang Xue nodded, and then the crowd started to riot. "Dog Emperor! Give me your life!"

A group of people dressed as farmers waving hoes rushed towards Jiang Qiyuan's convoy.

The guards had never seen such a scene before, and they all abandoned their tribute and fled. Qian State had been peaceful and tranquil for more than ten years, and such a riot was unprecedented.

Jiang Qiyuan turned pale and shouted in fear: "Protect the emperor! Protect the emperor quickly!"

He hurriedly pushed away the concubine beside him and used her as a human shield in front of him.

The weak concubine was so frightened that she was shaking all over, her hands and feet were cold, and she couldn't even stand. She burst into tears and kept repeating, "Your Majesty, spare my life."

Jiang Qiyuan has always favored civil officials and eunuchs, so when the critical moment came, there was not a single military general who could be used.

General Wu was bedridden due to poisoning, and General Meng was hunted down and hid in the Five Poison Sect, and his whereabouts are still unknown.

The mob waved knives and hoes, and the servants fell to the ground injured, with blood splattering.

The crowd was in chaos, with screams and running mixed together.

At this critical moment, just as a hoe was about to chop Jiang Qiyuan, suddenly a figure rushed out like lightning and blocked the fatal blow.

"Ah!" A scream pierced the sky, and the person who had just held the hoe high had his head and body separated in an instant.

"I am late, please forgive me, Your Majesty." Wu Yungui knelt on one knee, the long sword in his hand was stained with blood.
