The daughter of a general is reborn to save the whole family of the marquis

Zhou Mochen suppressed a barely perceptible smile, and finally waited successfully for the eldest prince to arrive. He immediately calmed down and obediently half-knelt beside the bed of the King of Northern Zhou.

When the eldest prince came in, he saw him at first sight and his eyes were fixed on him for a long time. His fifth brother had been outstanding in appearance since childhood and was very much loved by his father.

Moreover, he was extremely talented, and his father spared no time and effort to personally teach him horse riding, archery, military tactics and warfare.

Therefore, even after not seeing him for seven years, the eldest prince could still recognize him at a glance. Zhou Mochi must have had a pretty good time during his seven years in Daqi, otherwise how could he still have such a noble temperament?

"Your son pays homage to your father." Upon noticing that the King of Northern Zhou's gaze was on him, the eldest prince immediately collected his thoughts and knelt down in salute.

The King of Northern Zhou asked calmly, "There is a lot of noise outside, what happened?"

The eldest prince said, "In reply to my father, the Crown Princess of Daqi faked her death and sneaked into the royal city with her men when we were not paying attention, causing unrest in the entire royal city and causing panic among the people.

"That Princess Anding is also theirs. My second brother was deceived by her, but I have already captured Princess Anding. Shuangyun is leading people to surround and kill the Crown Princess of Daqi. They will never let them escape."

King of Northern Zhou said: "Really? You did a good job. Come here and let me see if you are injured."

The eldest prince was shocked. As the prince who would inherit the throne in the future, he was sent out to gain experience at a very young age. Leading troops in battle was a common occurrence, and getting injured was inevitable.

His father would either praise him for his bravery or scold him for his incompetence, and never cared whether he was injured or not.

The eldest prince stood up and took two steps forward. Feeling that the atmosphere was not right, he stopped suddenly.

Taking a deep breath, the eldest prince raised his head and his eyes fell on Zhou Mochi: "Father, my fifth brother has lived in Daqi for seven years. He is now a guest of Daqi and lives in the Wanxiang Mansion built for him by the Emperor of Daqi. I am afraid that my fifth brother is no longer a member of our Dazhou. Please let me take him away and interrogate him carefully to prevent him from hurting you!"

After a pause, he continued, "Fifth brother followed the Crown Princess of Daqi back to our royal city. I heard from others that Fifth brother came back this time to avenge his mother and his siblings who had been wandering for seven years!"

The King of Northern Zhou did not say anything. His temples were gray and he looked unimpressive as he sat leaning against the head of the bed.

The eldest prince continued, "It is very likely that Fifth Brother and Da Qi have made some kind of contract. Da Qi will help Fifth Brother become the king of our Great Zhou, and Fifth Brother will then submit to Da Qi. Please, Father, let me take Fifth Brother away to avoid an irreversible situation."

Zhou Mochi was stunned, and looked at the King of Northern Zhou with a hurt look in his eyes. The King of Northern Zhou immediately scolded the eldest prince: "I asked you to come here, why did you avoid the topic? How could I not know what happened to your fifth brother!"

The eldest prince frowned slightly and pursed his lips: "I am just worried that my fifth brother will hurt my father, I have no other intentions!"

The King of Northern Zhou said: "Your fifth brother has been away from home for seven years. I miss him very much. Even if he has bad intentions, I am here to interrogate him. What, do you think I am too old to even find out the purpose of your fifth brother's return?"

The eldest prince immediately said, "I dare not!"

The King of Northern Zhou said coldly, "Then why are you hesitating? I asked you to come over, why didn't you come? Are you hiding something from me?"

A fine layer of sweat broke out on the eldest prince's back, and his heart was filled with horror. Back then, his father had wished to kill Zhou Mochi and the others.

Even if they met again many years later, Zhou Mochen should still be the enemy of the Great Zhou, the person his father wanted to kill, but his father actually said that he missed Zhou Mochen?

This is so unlike his father's style.

In their Great Zhou, ability is more important than family ties.

Once a prince was sentenced to death, his family affection would be gone in an instant. His father was such a person, he would rather kill someone by mistake than let him go.

What my father is doing now is too abnormal. There must be something fishy going on.

The eldest prince gritted his teeth and walked over slowly. Even though it was only a few steps, his mind was already filled with mixed feelings.

He thought about what happened seven years ago. Could it be that his father already knew about it? Was his father calling him over in order to catch him when he was not prepared?

Zhou Mochen has been here for a long time. Did he say anything that made his father suspicious of him?

Once there is a crack in the father's trust in anyone, including his own children, he will never let it go easily.

What method did Zhou Mochi use to make his father suspicious of him? The eldest prince couldn't think of the answer, but he knew that under such circumstances, he must not let his father take him down.

Once he was captured, and Zhou Mochen was with his father, he would have no chance of survival.

The eldest prince suddenly looked at the King of Northern Zhou, who was sitting on the bed. He was already a sixty-year-old man. Years of fighting had damaged his body. He had also been taking medicine frequently in recent years, and his health was gradually failing...

In this short moment, the eldest prince made a crazy decision in his heart. He no longer hesitated and walked towards the King of Northern Zhou.

Almost at the moment he approached the bed of the King of Northern Zhou, murderous aura came towards him. Two assassins rushed out from behind the bed and tried to capture the eldest prince.

It was thought that these were assassins secretly raised by the King of Northern Zhou. The eldest prince had never seen them before, and he didn't know where they were hiding. He only knew that such a group of people existed, but he didn't know how many there were.

However, the eldest prince was also prepared in advance. When he saw the assassin coming towards him, he quickly kicked him and pulled out the dagger hidden in his boots and rushed towards the King of Northern Zhou regardless of anything.

The King of Northern Zhou thought that his assassins could strike first and quickly capture the eldest prince by surprise.

But if it really comes down to a competition of speed, the eldest prince was the one who took action first, so he was able to quickly kick the killer who was rushing towards him away. By the time the killer had stabilized his body and rushed towards him again, he had already rushed in front of the King of Northern Zhou and was about to take him down.

He had already made the decision that he could not put himself in a passive position. The King of Northern Zhou was old and was no match for him. He could not put his life and death in the hands of such an old man.

He did not intend to kill the King of Northern Zhou, but he wanted to capture him and make him obey him in everything.

Even if the King of Northern Zhou knew the truth about the Concubine Li incident seven years ago, and even if the King of Northern Zhou favored Zhou Mochi, he would not allow the King of Northern Zhou to have any chance to reverse the current situation.

The eldest prince's dagger rushed towards the neck of the King of Northern Zhou, trying to hold him hostage. The King of Northern Zhou's pupils shrank sharply, and he quickly rolled on the bed to avoid the eldest prince's dagger.

There was a long sword beside the bed. The King of Northern Zhou drew out the sword and roared, "Rebellious son, are you going to kill your father?"

"I dare not. I just don't want to die. Please don't force me, father!"

The eldest prince kicked the Northern Zhou king on the wrist, and the sword fell to the ground. The eldest prince's dagger moved towards his neck again.

He just wanted to hold the King of Northern Zhou hostage to control his ministers, but someone hit him hard from behind, and he couldn't control the force for a moment, and the dagger actually passed through the King of Northern Zhou's throat, cutting it.
