Surprise! The villain is my brother, stay calm!

After Prime Minister Su learned the specific situation of Yanzhou and Xuzhou, he felt relieved.

Lu Zhanyan transferred Prime Minister Su to Yizhou to take charge, and the people brought by Prime Minister Su were arranged to go to Qinzhou with Lu Zhanxing.

Prime Minister Su never imagined that the civil unrest in Qinzhou was caused by Lu Zhanyan's arrangement. No wonder it was so difficult to deal with.

I couldn't help but feel sympathy for Lord Wei. I hoped that he could accept the reality, otherwise it would be hard to say whether he could leave Qinzhou alive.

After finalizing some plans, Lu Zhanxing went to Qinzhou with six officials and a group of guards.

After all, Qinzhou already occupies most of the city. Many local officials have fled and corrupt officials have been dealt with. Some officials are urgently needed to fill the gap. These officials should be taken to Qinzhou first to avoid chaos due to lack of management.

Qinzhou was still a bit far away, and Lu Zhanxing and his companions took eight days of travel before arriving in Qinzhou.

The rebel leader who commanded the Qinzhou Uprising was named Huo Dongshen. He was the leader of the 30,000 elite soldiers and had the highest IQ and martial arts skills. He was now leading an army of 500,000 to fight against Daqian's army.

Yang Jingchen and others were defending the last city of Qinzhou. Once the last line of defense was breached, they could only retreat to Jingzhou. One step back, all steps back, so they could not retreat.

When Wei Gelao arrived in Qinzhou, he was speechless when he saw this situation. He could only discuss with Yang Jingchen and the recovered Zhongyi Hou and others: "Your Majesty has sent Prime Minister Su to Yanzhou for negotiations. As long as we handle the affairs of Yanzhou and Xuzhou, we will have a glimmer of hope. Otherwise, once Licheng is breached, the consequences will be disastrous."

Yang Jingchen looked a little frustrated. He had thought it would be easy to quell the rebellion in Qinzhou, but who knew it would be so difficult.

The rebel leader Huo Dongshen was unmoved no matter how many benefits he was promised. He was determined to turn the tables.

They even repeatedly used rumors that were unfavorable to Your Majesty, saying that Emperor Jiaxing came to the throne illegitimately and killed his father, which was why he was punished by heaven and caused the people of Daqian to suffer so much. Unless a true dragon emperor appears, they will never allow such an unkind emperor to rule the world.

Even if it meant death, Emperor Jiaxing had to abdicate, which led many people to believe it and join the ranks of the rebels.

The rebel army was growing stronger and stronger, and their Daqian army had only more than 400,000 troops. Of course, their Daqian army was well-trained and still had advantages over those peasant rebels, otherwise the entire Licheng would have been breached long ago.

Since Lord Wei was sent to quell the rebellion, he had no choice but to negotiate with the rebel leaders.

Unexpectedly, during the talks, the rebel leader simply kept Wei Ge Lao and the other six members of the negotiation team. Without doing anything to them, he just locked them up and waited for the next instructions from their master.

Yang Jingyi, Zhongyi Hou and others were dumbfounded. The rule of not sending envoys when fighting between the two sides has always been tacitly accepted on the battlefield. But these rebels have no martial ethics, so how could they detain the negotiators?

Are they so confident that they can win?

That's too arrogant.

Yang Jingchen and Zhongyi Hou anxiously summoned their respective advisers to discuss countermeasures. They knew that Wei Ge Lao, as the prime minister of a country, was not only an important figure in the court, but also the spiritual pillar of all civil servants. If he fell into the hands of the rebels, the consequences would be disastrous.

They must rescue Lord Wei.

Lord Wei must not die at the hands of the rebels. This shows the incompetence of the Daqian army. They can't even protect the Prime Minister. This will only seriously affect Daqian's morale and deal a heavy blow to Daqian.

"We must not sit idly by. We must try every means to rescue Lord Wei." Yang Jingchen added that he understood that this rescue operation was related to the dignity and morale of Daqian.

Marquis Zhongyi nodded in agreement: "I agree with Lord Yang. No matter how much it costs, we must ensure the safety of Lord Wei."

At this moment, time is running out and the situation is serious. They need to quickly develop a feasible rescue plan to save the situation and safeguard Daqian's dignity and hope.

Therefore, everyone decided to let Marquis Zhongyi lead his troops to attack, while Yang Jingchen would let his secret guards take advantage of the chaos to rescue them.

The two armies fought again. Yang Jingchen's secret guards disguised themselves as rebels and wanted to rescue Lord Wei, but they didn't expect that there was an ambush and they were all caught. Not only did they fail to rescue the people, but they also remained in the hands of the rebels forever.

Upon learning of the result, Yang Jingchen frowned, his gloomy eyes exuding a cold air. The secret guards that Duke Qing had spent a lot of effort to train were gone just like that. It would be a lie to say that he was not heartbroken, what he felt more was a sense of powerlessness.

I always feel that things are not that simple. What have I overlooked?

It is clear that some of these rebels are well-trained elite soldiers and they cannot be ordinary rebels at all.

Otherwise, how could not even one of his secret guards escape?

Yang Jingchen knew that there was something wrong with this group of rebels, but he couldn't find out where the problem was.

He suspected that it might be the work of Lu Zhanyan, but when he thought that Qinzhou was quite far away from Yanzhou, and both Xuzhou and Yanzhou had been attacked by enemy countries, he ruled out the possibility of Lu Zhanyan.

So who is behind these rebels?

Could it be that some enemy troops have infiltrated?

Yang Jingchen was puzzled, but he still asked someone to submit a memorial and send it back to the capital.

Emperor Jiaxing once again received an urgent message from eight hundred miles away. He trembled all over, then his eyes rolled back and he fainted. Zhang Ruiquan, who had experienced two dynasties, immediately called the imperial physician for treatment.

The imperial physician woke Emperor Jiaxing up in no time, then quietly retreated, reducing his presence.

He has experience in this, as the previous emperor also went through this.

Emperor Jiaxing knew that he could not fall, and he could not tell the court officials that Wei Ge Lao had been captured by the rebels, otherwise the whole court would be in chaos. After all, Wei Ge Lao was the Prime Minister!

We can only send someone to deliver the letter secretly, and find a way to rescue Lord Wei no matter what.

Now, Emperor Jiaxing can only place his hopes on Prime Minister Su, hoping that he can bring good news.

I have given away two states, and I don’t believe that Dayan will not be tempted.

In early October, the weather gradually turns cooler.

Just as Emperor Jiaxing was waiting for news from Prime Minister Su, bad news came.

The Lu family, Duke Anguo, and Lu Zhanyan rebelled!

He also published a manifesto to the world, first denouncing Emperor Jiaxing for having ascended to the throne illegitimately and accusing him of not being the true emperor. How could a man who killed his father be worthy of being an emperor?

Since Emperor Jiaxing ascended the throne, Daqian has suffered from endless natural disasters, and the people's lives have fallen into difficulties. To make matters worse, the two major enemy countries frequently provoked wars, forcing the people to flee everywhere and suffer.

Not only that, Emperor Jiaxing himself was a mediocre and incompetent person who did nothing in the court.

Daqian's ancestors all won the world through horseback battles, but now facing the attack from two major enemy countries, Emperor Jiaxing panicked and decided to cede Yanzhou and Xuzhou to the enemy countries, completely disregarding the lives of the people and only thinking about keeping his throne. This behavior is simply incompetent!

Our Lu ancestors were the founding heroes of Daqian. They have protected the people of Daqian for generations, the territory that our ancestors fought hard for, and the homes of every citizen. They never backed down, never feared any difficulties or obstacles, and never gave up on anyone.

The descendants of Chu cannot defend the territory and protect the people, so the Daqian territory will be defended by my Lu family, and the people will be protected by my Lu family. I, Lu Zhanyan, uphold the teachings of Lu ancestors, establish my mind for the world, my destiny for the people, carry on the lost knowledge of the ancient sages, and bring peace to the world for all generations!

Boom! !

This manifesto to attack Emperor Jiaxing was so deafening, especially the last four sentences, which were so chilling!

It makes people unconsciously filled with awe.

Not only were those who saw the essay shocked, even Lu Zhanyan was shocked by the last four sentences, because these last four sentences were added by Xingdi.

Xingdi, you are really talented. It is really unfair to let her be a playboy!

If it succeeds, how about making her the King of One Word?

If Lu Zhanxing knew what his elder brother was thinking, he would definitely jump up in shock and refute that these four sentences were also borrowed from a certain great scholar, but they were not hers. I don’t care about the title of King of One Word and One Shoulder. I want to be the King of Freedom, the King of Freedom…
