"Who dares!"

As soon as Empress Zheng called for surrender, a slender young man stood out from the bandit army, lifted his helmet, and revealed a face that everyone in the palace was familiar with.

Xia Houpei, the fifth son of King Heng who was sent to the capital to study with the prince in the past!

The thieves who had just panicked had their backbone again in an instant.

Xia Houpei sneered at Queen Zheng: "Your Majesty, if you don't care about the life and death of King Rong, you can shoot another arrow."

Empress Zheng's complexion changed slightly as she stretched her bow and set her arrows.

Xia Houpei directly ordered: "Whoever brings down the queen will be rewarded with a hundred taels!"

The half-kneeling fire/gunners instantly turned their guns in unison and fired at the roof.

Empress Zheng hid immediately, and the lead bullets made a bang bang sound on the roof tiles.The tiles were cracked and splashed, and the front of the hall was filled with a strong smell of sulfur.

Seeing Empress Zheng avoiding her, Xia Houpei no longer cared about her, squatted down and closed his eyes for the dying King Heng, his eyes were complicated, and when he raised his head, his eyes were red with pain and self-blame, he told his subordinates to restrain the corpse.

Then he looked into the hall, as if knowingly asking: "Long time no see, is the emperor still okay?"

Emperor Yongzhao sat down again and exchanged pleasantries: "It's been almost six years since you returned to Yuezhou."

Xia Houpei drew a fire/gun from the gunman, and said while loading the powder: "Unexpectedly, Uncle Huang still remembers me, I am really flattered."

As he spoke, he raised his gun and pointed it at Emperor Yongzhao.

Nan Ruo quickly blocked in front of Emperor Yongzhao, and Zhou Yan also led the imperial army to block the road from the palace gate to Emperor Yongzhao tightly.

Xia Houpei snorted: "Uncle Huang thinks these people can be stopped? It is said that today's sages are benevolent and filial, and love the people like sons. Presumably, Uncle Huang will not just watch your loyal subjects die for you, and watch their parents lose their lives." Son, wife and children lost support."

Emperor Yongzhao asked Nan Ruo to step aside, and said calmly, "What do you want to do?"

Xia Houpei lowered the muzzle of his gun and said: "As long as they are captured without a fight, I won't hurt their lives. Don't worry, the emperor, I am different from my father. It is naturally best for us to sit down and talk calmly." He swept across the forbidden army Each face has a deep meaning, "It depends on whether the emperor is willing to give them a chance to survive."

Emperor Yongzhao stared at him for a moment, then asked, "Where is the prince?"

Nan Ruo's eyelids twitched.

Xiahou Peihun shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and his casual appearance took on the posture of King Heng: "I don't know, I probably died in the hands of the people sent by my father."

Emperor Yongzhao was silent for a while, then waved to Zhou Yan: "Let's all go out."

Zhou Yan was surprised and anxious: "Your Majesty—"

"Go out." Emperor Yongzhao ordered.

Zhou Yan hesitated.

Xia Houpei didn't seem to be in a hurry, he glanced at the place where Empress Zheng had just appeared, and said: "The emperor only asked the crown prince, but didn't ask about King Rong. It seems that what my father said is true, King Rong is not the emperor. Uncle and son."

hiss--

Nan Ruo could almost hear the gasp from the surroundings.

He himself was also stunned. Wasn't King Rong born to Emperor Yongzhao himself? !Whose child is he then?The villain King Heng?

In a blink of an eye, he suddenly remembered what flashed through his mind when Fu Zhuo told him the truth about the prince's illness!

It's time!

It's time for Empress Zheng to be pregnant!

It was too close to the time when she was taken away from the palace by Heng Wang!

No, he remembered that it was mentioned in the original article that Empress Zheng felt emotional when she knew she was pregnant. It should have been when she said goodbye to Emperor Yongzhao the night before she decided to leave the palace. I don't want my parents to be separated.

But on the second day, she left with King Heng, and she went there for nearly two months.

The world's best way to test for pregnancy...

It turned out to be the case.

Nan Ruo suddenly realized that some doubts that he could not understand before were all solved.

He has never been able to figure out why Emperor Yongzhao would allow Empress Zheng to educate King Rong happily, nor why he was so arrogant and indulged in Changle.

Regardless of the truth about Empress Zheng's pregnancy, Emperor Yongzhao made a conclusion in his heart: he doubted it!

Because he was suspicious, he couldn't look at King Rong and Changle like he looked at the prince, so he was contradictory, and he had to hold on tightly to the love he showed.

King Rong...

Nan Ruo's heart sank slightly.

With his sensitive personality, I'm afraid he has already noticed it, no, maybe his sensitivity and melancholy come from it!

"Absurd!" Emperor Yongzhao categorically shouted, "I asked the prince because the prince is related to Guozuo, but I didn't ask King Rong because you just revealed to the queen that King Rong is in your hands."

"What's the rush, uncle?" Xia Houpei laughed, with a face that I just said casually, why are you so excited, and perfunctory, "Okay, okay, just pretend that I heard wrong."

However, the more loose he is, the more believable he is.

Emperor Yongzhao clutched his chest, his face turned ashen.

Nan Ruo remembered the pause before the empress dowager left - "Your... son", at that time he thought it was the empress dowager who had difficulty speaking, no, no, she was reminding Emperor Yongzhao that the crown prince is your only son!

He pursed his lower lip, the prince hadn't mentioned this matter to him earlier...

Xia Houpei said impatiently: "Uncle Huang should make a quick decision. Swords and guns have no eyes, and they don't distinguish between people."

Emperor Yongzhao took a deep breath, and once again ordered Zhou Yan to lead the forbidden army to retreat. There were only five hundred forbidden troops with only swords in their bodies, which was no different from hitting a stone with an egg.

Nan Ruo resolutely threw away the knife in his hand, as if he wanted to stick to His Majesty's will, Chang Qing walked over and knelt at Emperor Yongzhao's feet, unwilling to leave.

Xia Houpei didn't care, and walked into the hall with a fire/gun.

He really followed what he said just now, he had to talk calmly, did not arrest people violently, and stood by himself as if he respected Emperor Yongzhao, and said: "I won't say anything extra, even if the emperor is not interested in talking to me, directly Let's issue an edict."

He said to the family soldiers behind him: "Go and get a pen and paper for His Majesty."

The soldiers rushed into the study without saying a word.

Emperor Yongzhao sneered: "If you conspire to rebel, even if I write down the imperial edict, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty and the whole world will not recognize you."

Xia Houpei smiled: "When did I say I want you to pass me on?"

The family soldiers brought the pen and ink, he spread out the paper, and put the pen into Emperor Yongzhao's hands: "Let's write."

"Just write..." He opened his mouth to shake the sky, "Zen is located in Queen Zheng Fan'er."

"Ridiculous!" Emperor Yong Zhao threw away the pen and stood up abruptly.

Xia Houpei asked in surprise: "The emperor doesn't know?" He laughed twice, ignoring the shock of others, and said, "Why can you lead the troops into the palace so smoothly when you are my father? Naturally, the palace was opened by the empress. It's a pity that my father was silenced by the queen when he was about to speak out."

"My father is stupid. I can't see the real purpose of the queen. I believed her self-protection lies and was used as a gun by her. I am not stupid. Do the math. Today, the crown prince was killed and you were captured. If my royal father didn't rush to say it just now, and killed you first, the queen would come out with the oriole behind, and with King Rong's weak temperament, this big swallow will be held in her Zheng's hands from now on."

"That's right." He nodded seriously, and his undisguised expression was exactly the same as that of King Heng, "Everything the emperor did after he succeeded to the throne is unknown to others, but we know it all. It all came from the queen. My merits were taken away by others, and no one can bear it. It is not easy for the empress to tolerate you for more than ten years. Since the emperor has no talent, it is better to abdicate and give up the merits to the real master."

"Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!" Emperor Yongzhao seemed to have been stabbed against the scales, his breath was short of breath and he wanted to interrupt him, but his voice was weak as he held his chest.

Xia Houpei was still talking, and bursts of gunshots accompanied by shouts of killing rushed in. The one who came in was dressed similarly to the thief army, with a red cloth tied on his head to distinguish him, and the figure of Empress Zheng was looming behind.

Nan Ruo and Xia Houpei looked at each other for an instant, and their gazes split instantly.

"Your Majesty!" Nan Ruo stretched out his hand to support Emperor Yong Zhao.

Without a word, Xia Houpei pointed the gun at Emperor Yongzhao's thigh, and with a bang, Emperor Yongzhao's legs gave way and he fell under the throne.

Xia Houpei reloaded the medicine, pointed the gun at Emperor Yongzhao's head, and shouted outside the door: "Stop it! If you don't stop, I will kill the emperor!"
