Chapter 208: Stop the King from Diing
Wen Xiangzhu and Shen Jiayu stood side by side. In the night sky, brilliant fireworks bloomed one after another, illuminating the figures of the two people.
"Ayu." Wen Xiangzhu called softly, but his eyes slowly looked at the palace wall in the distance, "The show is about to begin."
Shen Jiayu smiled, with a barely perceptible excitement in her tone: "Let's go."
Wen Xiangzhu turned to look at her, a hint of tenderness flashing in his eyes.
Ling Feng and others in the distance saw that the time was almost right, so they stepped forward to interrupt their tender moment, "Young Master."
Wen Xiangzhu's expression changed. He took Shen Jiayu's hand and led a group of people to the city wall. At the same time, Qi Rui received the signal from the city and moved out slowly.
"Are you all ready?" Qi Rui was dressed in military uniform, with a sinister look in his eyes.
The men who followed him clasped their fists and said, "Your Highness, we are all in place, waiting for your order."
Qi Rui sneered, "Very good. After tonight, this world will be mine. Listen carefully, whoever holds Qi Binwei hostage, I promise to make him a senior official!"
Everyone knelt down at the same time, and shouted in a loud voice, "Thank you, Your Highness!"
He turned and looked at the counselor behind him: "Is there any news from the palace?"
The counselor bowed and said, "The one in the palace sent the news. There is a banquet in the palace at this time, and there is no defense."
"Heh." Qi Rui's eyes flashed with ruthlessness, "My good brother would never have thought in his dreams that tonight would be the day of his death."
He jumped on his horse and gave the order: "Move on!"
The sound of horse hooves shook the sky, and the rebels rushed to Kyoto like a tide. In just half an incense stick of time, the defenseless Kyoto city wall was breached. Qi Rui led the way with a determined smile on his face.
However, he didn't know that in the dark, a pair of eyes were coldly watching his every move.
Qi Rui's rebels successfully entered the palace. While he was excited, he had doubts in his heart and asked his advisers: "Is this all too smooth?"
Seeing this good situation, the strategist had the same doubts as Qi Rui, but since things had come to this point, he had to take a gamble and there was no way back.
"Your Highness, don't worry. Look at the imperial guards in front of you and the emperor behind you. They are obviously unaware of our actions."
At this time, their people had surrounded the hall. When the imperial guards came to report, Qi Binwei was drinking with his ministers at the banquet. Upon hearing the news, he stood up from the dragon throne with a gloomy face and hurried out of the hall, where his eyes met Qi Rui's.
"Third brother, you are finally back. Why did you have to make such a fuss? Are you going to rebel?" Qi Binwei said with a hint of regret.
Qi Rui laughed loudly, "Rebellion? This country originally belongs to me, how can there be any rebellion! My father was old, and his sudden death was all planned by you and that stupid Qi Honghe! This world should have belonged to me, you have no right! You have the blood of a lowly person, and you still want to become the supreme king of Yunli Kingdom, dream on! Stop pretending, it's disgusting!"
After hearing what Qi Rui said, Qi Binwei suddenly changed his expression, sneered, but said nothing.
"Why are you still laughing when death is imminent? Look at these useless people around you, including you! Don't you feel weak?" Qi Rui felt that the other party was just showing off.
As early as when someone in the palace spread the news that they were willing to cooperate with him, they had agreed that on the day he attacked the city, the people in the palace would definitely make arrangements at the banquet.
Qi Binwei is just holding on and putting on a show for his ministers.
Unexpectedly, Qi Binwei sneered and said to him word by word: "Third brother, I wanted to spare your life, so I let my men let you go, but you still don't repent, completely disregarding our brotherhood, and still full of hatred towards me. In this way, I will not care about our brotherhood anymore."
Qi Rui frowned slightly.
How come he is fine? Shouldn't he be exhausted and weak?
These ministers should be like this too, how come all of them are fine? Is that possible?
The people in the palace didn’t drug me! ?
"How could that be?" Qi Rui looked at Qi Binwei suspiciously, unwilling to believe that he was okay.
Qi Binwei shook his head slightly with a smile on his face, raised his hand and waved it gently, and then shouts of killing were heard outside the hall.
Wen Xiangzhu and Shen Jiayu led the imperial guards to charge in and fight with the rebels.
"It's you! Wen Xiangzhu!" Qi Rui glared at him, "You're ruining my plans again! Come, take him down!"
Wen Xiangzhu sneered: "Third Prince, since I can come here, do you think these people can stop me?"
"Damn it!" Qi Rui cursed inwardly, "Ruan Shuming, come out, I want you to kill Wen Xiangzhu!"
Ruan Shuming, who was hiding among the accompanying rebels, immediately stood up. This was a life-or-death battle, so he could only fight with all his might!
In an instant, the two men drew their swords and fought in front of the palace.
Wen Xiangzhu's swordsmanship was fierce, and every move went straight to the vital points. Although Ruan Shuming also practiced martial arts, he was not as good as Wen Xiangzhu's years of hard training, nor could he defeat the overwhelming hatred in Wen Xiangzhu's heart, and gradually fell behind.
"Waste!" Qi Rui saw this, with anger on his face, he jumped down and headed for Wen Xiangzhu's vital point, "Stop me from dying!"
Wen Xiangzhu grinned: "You want me to die! You can't!"
Shen Jiayu, who was standing nearby and fighting with the rebels, felt his heart tighten when he saw this. He flew to Wen Xiangzhu, and the two of them fought against Qi Rui and Ruan Shuming together.
Wen Xiangzhu smiled knowingly, and when he looked at Shen Jiayu, the hatred in his eyes dissipated a lot. He wanted to play with them for a while longer, but Shen Jiayu came over, and he was worried that they would hurt Shen Jiayu, so he had to seize the opponent's weakness, and quickly made a sword to knock the long sword in Qi Rui's hand away, and then grabbed him and subdued him to the ground.
"I said, you can't, and you are also the emperor's defeated general, forever defeated!" Wen Xiangzhu leaned forward and whispered in Qi Rui's ear.
At the same time, Shen Jiayu also captured Ruan Shuming.
"The thief has been captured, are you still going to resist?" Zhao Ji shouted loudly, looking at the rebels with a sharp gaze.
Qi Rui laughed loudly. "Oh, they are all my subordinates. How could they give up so easily just because of your words? You all! Go and kill the bitch who stole my throne!"
However, the rebels who followed Qi Rui saw this and knew that the situation was hopeless. After only a moment's thought on what Qi Rui said, they threw away their weapons and knelt on the ground without saying a word.
Qi Rui, who had been subdued, was so angry when he saw this scene that he trembled all over and looked fiercely at all those who were kneeling on the ground in surrender.
"I will kill all of you! Cowards! You..."
With a click, Wen Xiangzhu removed Qi Rui's chin, "Stop making noise."
Qi Rui turned his head with his mouth open, unable to speak. If looks could kill, everyone present would have been killed.
Unfortunately, he didn't have the chance.
