The Guangde Hall was surrounded by the Qing army, and everyone in the hall knew that they could not escape.

This was the first time Shi Ming saw Lou Yu with his own eyes, and it was also the last time.

He was strangled by the special forces, unable to move an inch, and could only stare at Lou Yu with his bloodshot eyes.

The handsome and jade-like young man stood a few feet away, exuding an elegant demeanor in every gesture, which was a natural grace and calmness from the inside out.

It's something he'll never learn.

Prince Qing's son really lived up to his reputation.

He looked at Lou Yu, but Lou Yu didn't look at him.

Lou Yu looked around at the generals in the hall and said with a smile, "Those who surrender will not be killed."

What's there to hesitate about?

The generals immediately fell to their knees and bowed their heads to show their submission.

Lou Yu then looked at the special soldier, nodded and praised him, "You did a good job."

The special soldier was obviously very excited, and said with a trembling voice: "Your Highness has cultivated it well!"

Lou Yu said again, "Thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard!"

Lou Yu smiled warmly: "Don't hold him back, just kill him."

Everyone: "..."

Is it so casual?

It's like killing an ant.

Shi Ming was frightened and was about to open his mouth, but his neck was snapped cleanly by the special forces.

Prohibition is the basic quality of every Qing army, especially for special forces.

They only obey orders and never talk nonsense.

Shi Ming did not rest in peace.

His heavy body fell on the steps, rolled down the steps, and landed right beside Du Qian.

Those eyeballs with residual fear just stared at Du Qian in a daze.

Du Qian could not stop feeling chills down his spine.

The rest of the people in the hall were trembling.

This Prince Qing's son looked kind and gentle, but he unexpectedly turned out to be a master of killing and decisiveness.

They were lucky that they didn't choose the wrong path just now, otherwise they would have to accompany Tiansheng Emperor to meet Hades.

Oh, no, there is no Heavenly Sage Emperor now.

Only the prince Qing's son, who is so precious in front of him.

There was silence in the hall.

Lou Yu ordered lightly: "Come here, hang the corpse of the traitor Shi Ming on the tower of Tianshu Gate to atone for his heinous crimes. The rest will be detained."

Immediately, soldiers entered and dragged away Shi Ming's body, and escorted the rest out of the hall.

The special forces also withdrew from the Guangde Hall with a wink.

Only Lou Yu, Huo Yan and Du Qian were left in the hall.

Lou Yu finally set his sights on Du Qian.

The miserable old man in front of him is no longer the domineering and superior man he used to be.

His wrinkled skin and thick eye bags all show that he is getting old.

Not only physically, but also psychologically.

"Du Qian, if you answer me a few questions honestly, I'll let you live, how about it?"

Du Qian looked up at Lou Yu.

In the resplendent and resplendent hall, the young man in front of him was as bright as the moon, and his light was not blocked at all.

He knew that the general situation was over, and the most worrying thing was his old wife and young children, and he didn't want to die.

Sui said, "You say."

Lou Yu asked: "Aside from you and Tang Cheng, who else killed General Huo Yi?"

Du Qian was startled.

He didn't expect Lou Yu to ask this question.

If he were Lou Yu, at this threshold, he would not touch such a sensitive issue.

Although Lou Yu has captured the capital, there is still the crown prince outside, as well as Tang Cheng and the king of Yue, who are watching. Unless the crown prince dies, unless Lou Yu is not afraid of ridicule and crusade by the world, it is impossible for him to become emperor.

And Tang Cheng, as the crown prince's backer in eradicating the traitors, although he has no first contribution, he still has made great achievements. It is still unclear what his future power will be, but it is conceivable that in the future, the great prosperity will surely become a tripartite confrontation.

Since Lou Yu can't get rid of Tang Cheng, why bother to ask such a question in front of Huo Yan?Are you really not worried about Huo Yan's anger?

He said hoarsely, "Huo Yi has no hatred against me, and I don't need to harm him."

Lou Yu asked: "So you are an accomplice, so who is the mastermind?"

"Would you believe me if I said it was the prince?" Du Qian sneered.

Lou Yu's eyes were slightly cold: "You take me for a fool?"

The crown prince is the heir to the throne. He only needs to wait for Emperor Zhengqian to drive west, and then he can ascend the throne smoothly. Moreover, judging from the crown prince's temperament, he is not the kind of person who will use any means to ascend to the throne.

So he didn't need to get rid of Huo Yi.

Besides, Fan Wenzai is the prince's teacher, and he is part of the prince's party, so he will definitely not agree with the prince to do such a thing that is harmful to the community.

Du Qian couldn't help looking at Huo Yan, with a sneer on his face: "Look, your master only wants to choose the answer that is beneficial to him, but he doesn't care what the truth about the murder of the Huo family is."

Huo Yan didn't even need to think: "Compared to you, of course I trust him more."

He is not a fool.

With such a clumsy divorce plan, why did Du Qian fail repeatedly?

Lou Yu's voice was completely cold: "If you talk nonsense again, I don't guarantee that the blood of the Du Mansion will still see the sun tomorrow."

He is used to giving orders, and the majesty of his body is increasing day by day. Now his face is cold, which is quite majestic.

Du Qian didn't even have the courage to look at each other, so he had to lower his head.

He said, "It's the Emperor Daxing."

Emperor Daxing is Emperor Zhenggan, because the temple name has not been determined yet, so it can only be called that first.

He has no grievances with Huo Yi, if there is no order from the emperor, why would he do such things that are not beneficial to him?

Huo Yan clenched his fists and asked in a difficult voice: "Why did he do this?"

Du Qian smiled, "Because he is afraid."

The less capable people are, the more afraid they are of capable people.

Emperor Zhenggan himself was a mediocre person, so he couldn't see such a world-famous figure as Huo Yi dangling in front of him, as if reminding him all the time that he was a waste!

As a result, his head became hot, and Huo Yi died.

Loyal ministers and good generals were killed, and the country was in the hands of such a mediocre master, how could it not be chaotic?

He used disgraceful means to get rid of the serious trouble in his heart, and threatened the vassal king to surrender his military power with the lives of the people all over the world.

In the end, he was killed by his own parents and the gangster he despised the most.

How ridiculous!

Lou Yu firmly held Huo Yan's trembling hand, and said in a warm voice, "He has already gone down to apologize to General Huo."

Huo Yan's eyes were flushed, and he gave a soft "hmm".

The two of them stood in front of Du Qian without any concealment.

Du Qian was not an innocent boy, his eyes widened instantly when he saw the two clasping their hands.

He was shocked: "You, you..."

Lou Yu frowned: "What about us?"

Du Qian didn't know what was in his mind, but he looked at Huo Yan with regret, and sighed: "If Huo Yi knows that his son has been reduced to... I'm afraid he will feel uneasy under the nine springs."

"Du Qian, you are always sowing discord." Lou Yu said sarcastically, "Do you think you are still qualified to mention General Huo?"

Huo Yan said in a deep voice: "Taking the exam first will only praise me for doing well."

Du Qian: "..."

Lou Yu pinched Huo Yan's palm lightly, with a smile on his lips, and his heart was full of sweetness.

As soon as I pinched it, it was completely wrapped by the opponent.

Du Qian: "..."

He said dejectedly, "Have you finished asking?"

Lou Yu said, "Is there anyone else?"

"The less people know about this kind of thing, the better."

For the first time, Lou Yu showed him a genuine smile.

"Thank you for letting me know."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Huo Yan.

Holding the sword in his hand, Huo Yanchang pierced Du Qian's heart without hesitation.

Du Qian stared at Lou Yu with a "ho ho".

Lou Yu kindly explained: "I just said, I will let you live."

But it didn't say whether others would let it go.

Du Qian was an accomplice in framing the Huo family, so it was natural for Huo Yan to do it himself.

Although Du Qian wanted to harm Lou Yu several times, he was resolved by Lou Yu. Instead, he suffered a lot from Lou Yu, and Lou Yu "couldn't bear" to do it himself.

Let Huo Yan do the work together.

Shi Ming was dead, Du Qian was dead, the rest of the officials did not dare to defy, all the troops in the city surrendered, and the entire imperial city was under Lou Yu's control.

He stood in the magnificent Guangde Hall, looking up at the dragon chair on the high steps.

Close at hand, within reach.

Huo Yan said in a low voice: "A Yuming and the sun and the moon, as well as the heaven and the latitude, how can you not sit?"

Lou Yu laughed and said, "It's my original wish to help the country. If I sit on it, wouldn't it be an excuse for Tang Cheng to disturb the wind and rain? At that time, the world will fall into war again, and the people will no longer be able to endure the torment."

He turned to look at Huo Yan.

"What's more, Qingzhou's strength is not enough to suppress the Northwest Army. It's not justified, and there are no [-] lions. It's better to let the crown prince ascend the throne first, and then seek great success."

Only when the prince ascends the throne can the world temporarily enter a period of peaceful transition.

Not only will the turmoil in the world subside, but Gyeongju and the other seven states will also achieve considerable development.

He has already taken the righteousness and the first merit, so why make another storm?

After all, his current bargaining chip is not enough to kill Tang Cheng.

Huo Yan asked earnestly: "What if the crown prince encounters misfortune?"

"Do you think Tang Cheng will not guard against it?" Lou Yu shook his head and said, "The Northwest Army is tightly guarded. I was able to deploy people in the capital and Tongzhou because the Tiansheng Sect was inherently incompetent. Tang Cheng was cautious and careful, and it was difficult."

What's more, even if the crown prince died, would Tang Cheng give up if he could ascend the throne?

will not.

Tang Cheng will return to the northwest and become his own emperor in the northwest.

The imperial court's hold on the Northwest would be depleted.

This is not what Lou Yu wants to see.

All in all, no matter what, it is not a wise move for him to choose to be emperor now.

But how great is the temptation of the Lord of the World?

It was Lou Yu who was reluctant to wake up just now.

Fortunately, sanity is not lost.

On the second day of November, the Qing army captured Tongzhou City.

On the third day of November, the Qing army captured the capital, executed Shi Ming, the leader of the rebels, and captured tens of thousands of rebels.

On the fifth day of November, when news spread to the Northwest Army and the Vietnam Army, Tang Cheng frightened the chess pieces in his hands, and Lou Zong almost broke the chopsticks.

What?The Qing Army has taken the capital already?How can it be so fast?

Tang Cheng couldn't believe it: "The news is really correct?"

He couldn't believe it, the Qing army was able to break through Tongzhou City and the capital in just two days!

Even if Tang Cheng claimed to be good at fighting, he didn't dare to boast so much.

That's all for Tongzhou City, it's not impossible.

But the capital?

Simply incredible.

The military master was also shocked, he pondered for a while, and then suddenly said: "Could it be that the blue is better than the blue because of the blue?"

"What Qing..." Tang Cheng just asked, but stopped again.

He stared at the military adviser for a long while before continuing: "Even if it is Huo Yi, it is impossible to do this. How old is Huo Erlang?"

"That's why it is said that blue comes from blue." The military master sighed.

Tang Cheng shook his head: "This is no longer achievable by humans, except by divine power."

He did not believe that such divine power existed in the world.

Yue Wang Lou Zong also didn't believe it.

He asked the doormen around him countless times: "Is the news really correct?"

The doorman said helplessly: "Shi Ming's body is still hanging outside the gate of Tianshu!"

Lou Zong: "..."

Damn, what the hell is going on?

He just fell asleep, why did the whole world change?

Is Shi Ming so cowardly?Didn't even defend the capital?

It's fine if you don't keep it, the mother didn't even keep it for a day!

He asked, "Is Lou Yu the emperor?"

The doorman shook his head: "I haven't heard of that."

Lou Zong said impatiently: "Okay, I will go to the capital to have a look!"

Then he took the army to the capital.

Naturally, Tang Cheng immediately brought the prince back to Beijing.

After capturing the capital, Lou Yu ordered people to clean up the inside and outside of the capital.

The most important thing is to restore order first.

Before Tianshengjiao, it "strengthened the walls and cleared the wilderness", which made the people inside and outside the capital miserable.

Lou Yu asked people to find out that General Yunhui and ordered him to return all the money, grain and property.

Of course, when General Yunhui looted, he didn't distinguish who was who. No matter who he robbed, it became his own in the end.

So it was difficult to return it.

Lou Yu had no choice but to send someone to register for the common people, and then to verify.

Generally speaking, only the owner will remember some valuable items clearly.

For example, if the owner goes to the police station to claim the wallet, he must first tell the style and color of the wallet, and then tell what is in the wallet and how much money it has.

It can be clearly stated that this kind of private item is the owner in most cases.

Lou Yu cannot guarantee that it is 100% correct, but at least it can reduce the possibility of others claiming it.

The people in the capital were ecstatic.

When the Qing army entered the city, they were very numb.

Having experienced several wars, in their eyes, these siege troops are no different, they are all bandits who care nothing about human lives!

But they never expected that after the Qing army attacked the city, they would order the group of Tiansheng Sect to return the food and money.

Great, really great!

In the face of the registered military men, ordinary people dare not be presumptuous, and say what they have been robbed. Only a few who wanted to get cheap said more about other people, but they were found out during verification, not only did they not get cheap , but was reprimanded by the Qing army and looked down upon by others, and became a street rat.

Because of the Qing army's rigorous and responsible style of conduct, the common people in the capital gradually developed trust and affection for them.

Xie Mao was dressed in old clothes, standing in the queue for registration, his face was thin and his eyes were vicissitudes.

There are people talking about it in front of and behind it.

"Qing Jun is so kind, he is willing to return the food to us!"

"I heard that the order was issued by Prince Qing. Do you still remember that His Royal Highness Prince Qing went to the northern border last year? He got it back for free!"

"Remember, remember! I still remember that His Highness was bullied by the court when he lived in the residence, and I went to deliver charcoal!"

"What I sent was food! But His Highness confiscated ours, His Highness is really thinking about us."

"Oh, if His Highness can become emperor..."

"Don't die! Can you talk nonsense like this?"

Xie Mao listened silently, feeling very uncomfortable.

After Tianshengjiao attacked the city, his father fell off his horse in order to defend the capital, and his legs were paralyzed.

If their Xie family did not surrender to Shi Ming, Shi Ming would naturally not make it easy for them.

Although their lives are kept on the surface, anyone can bully them behind the scenes.

All the money shops in the Hou Mansion were looted by the robbers from the Tiansheng Sect.

The Hou Mansion went from heaven to hell in an instant.

All the servants in the mansion ran away.

What's more, the elder brother's concubine did not want to live a poor life, so he got close to a high-ranking official of Tiansheng Sect and became someone else's concubine!

His elder brother was already depressed after his arm was broken, but he was hit hard when he learned about it, and he fell ill because of it.

In order to cure her father and elder brother's illness, her mother had to sell her jewelry and even worked day and night at embroidery.

Xie Mao couldn't believe the changes in the Hou Mansion at first, immersed in the wealth and glory of the past, worked as a demon queen a few times, and was woken up by his mother crying.

After waking up, he seemed to be a different person.

"Next." The military master in charge of registration shouted.

The person behind pushed Xie Mao.

"Young man, what are you doing in a daze, it's your turn!"

Xie Mao's face was flushed, and he was clutching at the hem of his clothes. Under the watchful eyes of the military master, he was nervous and speechless.

"What's missing from your house? How much? What does it look like?" Jun Ye asked blankly.

Xie Mao is no longer the domineering Xie Jia Erlang he used to be. He lowered his head and asked in a low voice: "My house, my house was copied by Tiansheng Sect a few months ago, can those things be taken back?"

"make it clear."

Xie Mao plucked up his courage: "Yes, there are many, I can't finish it in a while."

The military master immediately frowned.

Xie Mao quickly took out a list, which he wrote with the pen and paper borrowed from the bookstore.

The shopkeeper of the bookstore knew him and gave him some face.

The list goes on and on.

Jun Ye took a look and raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Although he hasn't seen much of the world, he can still tell the difference between good and bad.

The rare calligraphy and paintings, beautiful porcelain wares and some pavements on it are all things that ordinary people can't see.

He asked, "Which family are you from?"

Xie Mao said in a low voice: "I, my father is Xie Xin, who used to be Marquis Ning En."

"Thank you letter, right?" Jun Ye nodded and wrote down his name on the registration form, "Okay, we will verify this matter and let you know when the time comes."

These are all valuables, he can't decide, he has to inform the superior.

Xie Mao felt a little lost, bowed his head and took a step forward.

After walking a few steps, he heard Jun Ye muttering to his colleagues beside him: "Who is Marquis Ning En?"

The colleague was shocked, but still lowered his voice and said, "Ning Enhou, you don't even know? Then, do you know who the former husband of His Royal Highness the Princess of Qingzhou is?"

"do not know."

Colleague: "You really... Let me tell you, this Marquis Ning En used to be in-laws with our Prince Qing!"

Junye:! ! !

He really doesn't know wow!

"Then how did it become the past?"

"It's a long story. I'll tell you when I'm done. Let's do things first!"

Xie Mao stood where he was, feeling somewhat sour, regretful, and ashamed for no reason.

The five flavors are mixed and can't be said.

He returned home in a panic.

Of course, what they lived in was no longer the former Marquis of Ningen's Mansion, but a dilapidated courtyard.

He pushed open the door.

The former Mrs. Hou, now Mrs. Tong, is mending clothes in the courtyard in the sunshine.

Her skin has already produced many wrinkles, her hands have worn many calluses, and her temples have added a lot of hoarfrost.

Xie Mao choked with sobs and called out: "Mother."

Tong Shi was busy mending clothes, so she didn't raise her head when she heard the words.

"I'm back, there are still two pancakes hot on the stove, go and eat them."

Xie Mao walked up to her, knelt down on his knees, hugged her legs and cried loudly.

"Mother! Mother! I was wrong! I was really wrong!"

Tong's heart trembled. She looked at her young son who was buried in her knees. Her once beautiful features had changed, but she still carried the gentleness and tenderness of her mother.

"Are you wronged outside?"

Xie Mao shook his head desperately, but his throat seemed to be choked, and he couldn't say anything.

"Then why are you crying?" Tong put down her needle and thread, and stroked his hair with her rough right hand, "You are the pillar of our family now, so you can't shed tears easily."

Xie Mao knew this truth, but he just couldn't help it.

He cried wantonly for a while, then wiped away his tears, and said with red eyes, "Mother, I was ignorant before, if I didn't bully Lou Yu, if I respected my eldest sister-in-law, would our family change back to what it was before?"

Naturally Tong Shi also heard about the news of the Qing army entering the city.

Her expression gradually faded, she picked up the needle and thread again, and said, "Where are there so many ifs? There are no ifs in this world."

"But mother..."

"Stop talking!" Tong suddenly got up and knocked him to the ground, "Do you think we can really treat her well?!"

"mother?"

Tong's eyes were red and he shouted: "Your father! The person your father is loyal to is a hypocrite! Do you really think that our Hou family can treat her kindly? Do you really think that person doesn't know Lou Quan's situation? We can't treat her kindly , do you understand?"

Xie Mao sat on the ground blankly.

He looked at the hysterical Tong, and felt that everything was so absurd and ridiculous.

Yes, how can there be so many ifs in the world?

It was just his wish.

Their Xie family is the loyal dog of Emperor Zhenggan, and they can do whatever Emperor Zhenggan asks them to do.

If they treated the princess well, they would be suspected of being close to the vassal king; but they didn't treat the princess well, and in the end they were the ones who were ridiculed and ridiculed.

How sad!

Xie Mao suddenly burst out laughing, crying while laughing.

He said: "Mom, I just went to register the lost property shamelessly."

Tong's needle, thread and clothes fell from his hands, and he asked in a very soft voice, "What did you say?"

"I went to the Lost and Found Registry and handed in the list of our family's lost items." Xie Mao smiled miserably, "It's the registry where Prince Qing's son ordered the return of common people's lost property."

Tong's whole body trembled.

She screamed: "Why are you going! Why are you going! Why haven't you changed at all? You're going to beg your enemy in order to live a better life? You're trying to piss me off!"

"Mother, I just don't want to see you working so hard again." Xie Mao smiled wryly.

Xie Mao himself didn't have any skills. If he was in a peaceful and prosperous age, he could still copy books and find a job to make money, but now in a troubled world, he can't find a job at all.

How difficult is it for his mother to support three big men?

He is distressed.

After all, Ning Enhou's name was quite resounding. After the soldiers in charge of the registration reported it, the news quickly reached Lou Yu's ears.

Lou Yu was slightly surprised, and said to Huo Yan: "I remember that after Shi Ming attacked the city, Xie Xin had his legs disabled in order to defend the capital. After Shi Ming proclaimed himself emperor, Xie Xin would rather die than surrender, and he has a bit of backbone."

"Your Highness is softening?" Huo Yan asked.

Lou Yu raised his eyebrows, "Of course not, I just think, how did Xie Xin, who has such a backbone, teach two sons, Xie Ce and Xie Mao?"

"Then what does His Highness want?"

Lou Yu glanced at the list and said, "Shi Ming can use the Xie family to show kindness, so can I."

He ordered: "The items in the list were all smashed by Shi Ming when he was angry, and there was only one silver bracelet left, which was sent to Mrs. Tong. Also, the items will be returned in a few days, and people need to move them. Our brothers It's been a long time marching and attacking the city, so let's recruit some people in the city."

The subordinates immediately understood.

Thank you.

Xie Mao and Tong Shi were eating cakes in the water when there was a knock on the door.

Xie Mao stood up hesitantly.

It's so late, who could it be?

He walked to the door and asked cautiously, "Who?"

The person outside the door said: "Did your family go to register the lost property today?"

Xie Mao was taken aback for a moment, but was immediately overjoyed.

"Yes Yes!"

The person outside the door said: "I'm sorry, we have checked. After the items in Ning Enhou's mansion were robbed by the thief leader Shi Ming, most of them have been destroyed by him, and there is only one silver bracelet left. Please open the door, sir. Return the bracelet to your family."

Xie Mao hurriedly opened the door.

The military master outside the door really believed his words, handed him the silver bracelet, then looked at his physique, and said in sympathy:

"Your family's life is not easy. I have a short-term worker here, and I just need a young and strong man like you. If you want, you can go to the registration office to find me when the time comes, and I will introduce you to work."

Xie Mao's eyes brightened: "Dare to ask the military master, how much can you earn for a day?"

"Twenty Wen a day."

In the past, twenty texts were not even a fart in Xie Mao's eyes, but now, he is extremely happy.

"Thank you, Master!"

After closing the door, he happily returned to the house holding the silver bracelet.

Tong Shi asked, "Who is it?"

"Mother, I'm here to return the lost property."

He handed the silver bracelet in front of Tong Shi, and happily repeated what the man said just now, but Tong Shi's face turned pale instantly.

The next moment, Tong slapped the silver bracelet to the ground, and said with a distorted face, "I don't want his charity!"

Xie Mao was stunned: "...Mom?"

He knew that Niang had always been arrogant, but now is not the time to be arrogant.

This silver bracelet can be exchanged for some money.

He said: "The man also introduced me to a part-time worker who can earn twenty Wen a day."

Tong Shi asked sharply, "What job?"

She wants to see what kind of bad intentions Lou Yu has!

"Move the goods." Xie Mao replied.

Tong Shi: "..."

She looked at the young but vicissitudes of her young son's face, looked at his expectant and apprehensive eyes, and then looked at this dilapidated house and broken home, and couldn't help but shed tears.

"Mother, don't cry." Xie Mao knelt on the ground to comfort him, "Let's think about the best, Shi Ming's death can be regarded as Prince Qing's revenge for us, and no one will bully us in the future."

Tong continued to cry.

"In the future, no matter if it is the crown prince or... ascending the throne, order will definitely be restored in the capital, and we will not worry about living in the future."

Tong couldn't help reaching out to caress the top of his head, choked up and said: "Mother's good Erlang has really grown up."

"Mother, I will never be self-willed again." Xie Mao said firmly, "Even if the capital can't stay longer, when the world is peaceful, we can still move and go wherever we want."

Tong Shi nodded again and again: "Okay, okay."

On the sixth day of November, Lou Zong, the king of Yue, arrived in the capital. The gates of the capital were closed and the defenses were tight.

He couldn't help shouting: "I am the king of Yue. I came to the king in response to the prince's order. Why don't you open the city gate?"

The general guarding the city replied: "His Royal Highness is cleaning up the city. When the crown prince returns to Beijing, he will open the door to welcome him!"

King Yue: "..."

Ganqing Louyu really intends to let the crown prince ascend the throne?

If so, what else is there for him to fight?

Just wait for the prince to arrive!

On the seventh day of November, Tang Cheng led [-] Northwest Army troops to Tianshu Gate.

The prince returns to Beijing.
