Surprise! The villain is my brother, stay calm!

Lord Mei didn't care and first told Lu Zhanyan about the situation in the capital.

Emperor Jiaxing and others are at the end of their rope. The only ones who still protect Emperor Jiaxing are the Minister of War, the Minister of Justice and a few trusted officials.

Lu Zhanyan was not surprised, as there were always people loyal to the royal family.

When King Ping and his personal soldiers took a shortcut to escape, they found that there was already a group of people waiting ahead.

Lu Zhanxing sat upright on the horse, acting like a villain: "Haha, Chu Ji, there is a road to heaven but you don't take it, there is no door to hell but you insist on coming, you asked for it!"

They had people guarding all directions to prevent any fish from slipping through the net, but they didn't expect that they would wait for the big fish, King Ping.

As expected, Chu Ji and I are destined to be together.

"It's you!"

When King Ping saw Lu Zhanxing, he was stunned at first, and then his eyes were full of resentment: "Get out of here if you know what's best for you, or I will take you with me even if I die."

"Eldest sister, he is mean to me!"

Lu Zhanxing looked at his heroic elder sister beside him with a wronged look.

Their woods were surrounded by archers, and he was surrounded by elite soldiers.

This time, he and his elder sister Lu Xihua led the interception team.

Lu Xihua was holding a red tasseled spear, wearing a red tight-fitting outfit, with her long hair tied up high, and her posture was tall and straight. She was really beautiful and cool.

"Don't be afraid, little brother. I won't let him off!"

"Okay, elder sister, although this is not a big battlefield, it is also a small battlefield. It's time to show your martial arts. Elder sister, show your momentum!"

Lu Zhanxing happily stepped back behind the scenes, leaving the battlefield to her elder sister.

She knew how much her elder sister loved military training, and this was a good opportunity.

After my eldest brother ascends the throne, I will definitely ask for credit for my eldest sister.

Lu Xihua naturally understood that A-di gave her the opportunity to realize her ambitions. Although she was shocked when she learned that A-yan was planning a rebellion, she always stood on the side of her family.

"King Ping, I will give you one chance. I will not use archers. I will only use 10,000 elite soldiers against your 10,000 elite soldiers. If you can escape from me, I will let you go."

"Arrogant!!"

King Ping snorted angrily, thinking that it was a humiliation to him that Lu Zhanxing let a woman deal with him, but he could not refuse.

After all, there were archers all around, so he didn't dare to gamble.

Lu Zhanxing did not stop her. Since his elder sister wanted to show herself, he should give her a chance.

"My men, follow me to kill the enemies. If you kill one enemy, you will be rewarded with ten taels of silver. If you kill two enemies, you will be rewarded with twenty taels of silver. And so on!"

Under the heavy reward, there must be a brave man!

What's more, these are elite soldiers trained by Lu Xihua himself, and they are very respectful and loyal to Lu Xihua.

The soldiers responded loudly and stepped forward with their swords drawn.

Lu Xihua also held a spear and rode a war horse to attack King Ping.

The two sides were engaged in a battle.

The shouts of killing shook the sky.

King Ping did not take women seriously. After all, men are naturally contemptuous of women.

But this time, he underestimated the woman's strength.

The elite soldiers brought by Lu Xihua were all wearing heavy black armor and holding long swords, with sharp blades flashing a cold light in the sun. They marched in unison and with great momentum, like an invincible steel torrent.

Every five elite soldiers formed a formation, cooperating with each other and moving in unison. And every five small formations formed a military formation. Under the guidance of the rhythm of the military drum, the military formations of these elite soldiers changed in many ways, which was dazzling and frightening.

When the two armies clashed, Lu Xihua's elite soldiers showed strong combat effectiveness and superb tactical skills. They quickly cut into the enemy's line, and with fierce offensive and close coordination, they beat the enemy back step by step.

After just one face-to-face attack, Lu Xihua's elite troops gained a clear advantage and put tremendous pressure on the enemy.

The guards of King Ping were defeated one after another, and the whole army was in a state of collapse...

The capital was also caught up in the war. When Lord Mei went to negotiate peace, he was detained, which meant the negotiations had failed.

Prince Ping escaped, and the Minister of War personally led the army to resist Lu's army.

Even if the people in the city wanted to escape, there was a war going on at the city gate, so they could only stay indoors.

Everyone knows that it is easier to defend a city than to attack it. Without more than twice the number of troops, attacking a city is almost wishful thinking.

The Minister of War was particularly difficult to deal with, and the capital city could not be captured for a long time.

Xiao Lanjue and others came up with ideas, asking the Lu family army to make a feint to the east and attack in the west. The west gate was weak, so they could attack from there.

Lu Zhanyan agreed and led his army to attack the city, but in fact he dispatched a large number of troops to attack the west gate.

The Minister of War in the city was frowning. Although they had nearly 800,000 soldiers, they were guarding the capital city and were short of food and fodder. They were afraid that they would not be able to hold out for long.

He asked the Minister of Justice to repeatedly advise His Majesty to flee the city and wait for an opportunity to hide back in the capital.

Otherwise, once the enemy attacks, they will have no way to retreat.

However, Emperor Jiaxing couldn't do it and decided to defend the capital to the death.

On May 10, the Minister of War realized that the West Gate was almost attacked, and hurriedly led his troops to provide support.

However, the Assistant Minister of War took advantage of the situation and ordered his men to secretly open the city gates to welcome Lu Zhanyan and his army into the city.

There was chaos in the capital.

The streets were full of people with hurried looks and fast steps. The shop assistants on both sides of the street were also busy installing wooden boards on the doors, while the shopkeepers were anxiously urging them, "Hurry up! Hurry up!"

The whole scene was noisy and full of panic. People's faces showed nervousness and anxiety.

A child or an adult from an unknown family was lost on the street corner. They stood there crying in bewilderment. As the army was approaching, the child was found by his father, whose face turned pale with fear. He hugged the child and ran into the alley...

It was bustling, noisy, and full of panic and anxiety.

The million-strong army ignored the people in the city and headed straight towards the imperial city.

"Oh no, oh no, there's a fire in the palace..."

People in the palace were in panic and a fire broke out.

When Sun Qiming of the Imperial Guard and Mo Feiyu, the general of the Imperial Guard, heard that the army outside was attacking the palace, they directly opened the city gates to welcome Lu Zhanyan's army in.

Lu Zhanyan immediately ordered people to put out the fire and capture Emperor Jiaxing.

Soon, a general came to report: "My lord, the Emperor Jiaxing, the Empress, and several concubines were burned in the Longyin Palace. No one survived."

Lu Zhanyan frowned and asked, "Are you sure it's the body of Emperor Jiaxing?"

"Absolutely true!"

Upon learning that Emperor Jiaxing actually committed suicide by burning himself, Lu Zhanyan sighed that he was still somewhat responsible.

It's better than King Ping who escaped with his personal soldiers.

This time, Lu Zhanyan and his men won a great victory and directly sent people to take over the entire palace.

Lu Zhanyan looked at the two people who opened the palace gate for him and others. He remembered that they were Xingdi’s two good friends.

It was because they opened the city gates for their army in advance that the fire in the palace did not spread. Only Longyin Palace and two surrounding palaces were burned down, while the other palaces remained intact.

"You two should guard the palace gate."

Sun Qiming and Mo Feiyu responded immediately.

The moment the two learned that Lu Zhanyan and others were plotting a rebellion, they understood what Lu Zhanxing meant by what he said before he left.

Aren’t we just waiting for them to open the city gate for Lu Zhanyan?

Lu Zhanxing really deceived them so badly. They must ask Brother Lu for benefits later.

At this time, Lu Zhanxing didn't know that her two good friends had made great contributions.

In front of her, Prince Ping and her elder sister were fighting. Prince Ping's men suffered heavy losses and defeat was only a matter of time. She also seemed to see thick smoke billowing from the direction of the imperial palace.

Lu Zhanxing clenched his hands tightly, staring at the flames rising into the sky in the distance without blinking.

In the eyes as dark as a deep pool, there is worry and expectation...

The world is in chaos. Some people get what they want, while others lose everything.

She sat quietly on the horse's back, letting the smell of blood penetrate her nose...

"Your Majesty!!!"

A scream brought Lu Zhanxing back to his senses.

King Ping widened his eyes in disbelief, with confusion and trance in the depths of his eyes.

It took him a while to react, and a gun tip popped out of his chest, blood spurted out, and then there was a sharp pain in his bones.

It turned out that Lu Xihua threw the spear in his hand, which pierced his back and chest.

He can't survive!

One last thought flashed through my mind.

King Ping looked back on his life and found that even after his rebirth, he still couldn't seem to change the fate of his untimely death.

The rebirth in this life led to the destruction of Daqian, which had been ruled by the Chu family for hundreds of years...

God, since you gave me a new life, why don't you let me change my fate...
