The daughter of a general is reborn to save the whole family of the marquis
Chapter 359: The King
The eldest prince's pupils widened and he wanted to shout this out, but just like the Northern Zhou King before his death, he could only make "uh uh" sounds and died without uttering a single word.
Zhou Mochen did not retract his sword. Instead, he looked around at the ministers and the soldiers behind them.
He said: "The eldest prince killed his father and the king, his crime is unforgivable! Although I, Zhou Mochi, have been wandering outside for seven years, I have always remembered the kindness of my father's upbringing. Today, I will kill the eldest prince and avenge my father!"
The scene was extremely quiet and no one said a word.
The King of Northern Zhou and the eldest prince died too quickly, and the timing of the Fifth Prince's return was too strange. Some ministers had doubts in their hearts, but they dared not speak out, because they could clearly perceive that the situation in the Great Zhou seemed to be controlled by Zhou Mochen.
Lou Kuan knelt down first and said, "Welcome the Fifth Prince back to the palace. Long live the Fifth Prince!"
When the ministers saw Lou Kuan like this, they were surprised, but suddenly they remembered that Lou Kuan and the fifth prince's uncle had been good friends for many years.
It seems that Lou Kuan is already the Fifth Prince's man, and the 5,000 soldiers outside are also Lou Kuan, who were brought here under the orders of the Fifth Prince. No matter what the truth of the death of the King of Northern Zhou and the eldest prince is, the situation is now very clear. Some ministers immediately knelt down and shouted "Long live the emperor" three times.
Lou Kuan then said, "The Fifth Prince killed the First Prince and avenged the King, which was a great achievement! The country cannot be without a king for a day, and the war between our Great Zhou and Great Qi is imminent. I beg the Fifth Prince to ascend the throne as king!"
The ministers of Lou Kuan's party immediately echoed his words and asked Zhou Mochi to ascend the throne as king.
The ministers of other parties looked at each other, unable to make a decision for a moment. Even if the eldest prince was gone, there were still the second prince, the third prince and the fourth prince!
But at this moment, someone came hurriedly on horseback and knelt outside the hall, "Report - the Third Prince has been killed by the Crown Prince Daqi in Shengjing City, and his head is hung on the city wall."
"Report - Not long after the Fourth Prince left the royal city, he was surrounded and attacked by the troops led by General Shu Xiao of Daqi. He and his horse rushed off the cliff and were smashed to pieces."
There was an uproar.
Including the eldest prince in front of him, their Great Zhou had lost three princes in a short period of time. Now there are only the second prince who was fighting against Chu Bian and the fifth prince who had just returned.
The court officials looked at Zhou Mochi one by one. They saw him standing in the hall in a dark brocade robe, with a serious expression, looking superior.
Everyone suddenly realized that Zhou Mochen was no longer the boy who allowed himself to be bullied.
He avenged his mother, his past self and his sister. Not only that, he now holds the lives of many people in his hands, and the fate of the Great Zhou in his hands.
Some clever ministers finally understood that their Fifth Prince came well prepared, not only for revenge, but also for the throne of their Great Zhou.
After figuring it out, the minister immediately said, "I beg the Fifth Prince to take the throne and take charge of the affairs of the Great Zhou! We have lost three princes in a row, and I am afraid that the Great Qi will come with great force. I also ask the Fifth Prince to take charge of the overall situation and see how the Second Prince and Chu Bian fight!"
Seeing this, the remaining ministers also realized that Zhou Mochen was in control of the Great Zhou and the situation was irreversible, so they all echoed and asked Zhou Mochen to ascend the throne and become king.
Outside the hall, the soldiers brought by Lou Kuan also made the same call, the sound was continuous and echoed throughout the Northern Zhou Palace.
When the news reached the city gate, Shuangyun was still fighting with thousands of soldiers. Chu Heyi, Shu Xiao, Luo Jin and others were covered in blood, and their long hair was coagulated into clumps by the blood.
Just as the eldest prince guessed, the number of people they could bring in was very small, and this was the royal capital of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, full of people from the Northern Zhou Dynasty. They kept killing and killing, but had not yet been able to fight their way out.
However, Chu Heyi knew clearly in his heart that their greatest hope was for Zhou Mochi to ascend the throne. As long as Zhou Mochi succeeded, they could survive even if they did not fight their way out.
I hope Zhou Mochen won’t let them down.
"Fighting to the last!" Shuangyun looked at them and sneered.
Shuangyun was full of confidence in capturing Chu Heyi and Shu Xiao. His men were like a tide, constantly pouring in. Even if Chu Heyi and the others could not be killed in a short time, they could at least exhaust them to death.
However, news of the eldest prince's death came.
News has come that the fifth prince Zhou Mochi will be king.
Shuangyun was watching the fight that was about to be won, but it just... ended. It was as if he was trying with all his strength to reach a target, but his strength was almost exhausted. When he was about to succeed, someone told him that the target had been destroyed.
Soldiers rushed over from all directions and surrounded him and his guards. Shuangyun dared not move.
He was the eldest prince's most capable general and had a bright future. But tonight, after the eldest prince died, his future disappeared and he became a prisoner.
Chu Heyi, Shu Xiao and others were invited into the palace.
When they entered the palace, they were still wearing bloody clothes, and the dense wounds on their bodies could not be touched. The slightest touch would cause them excruciating pain.
Zhou Mochi placed them in the palace.
However, they couldn't see Zhou Mochen for the time being. They only knew that the Northern Zhou Dynasty was in a state of disrepair and Zhou Mochen was very busy, so they could only wait patiently.
Let’s talk about Zhou Hanchi.
The two armies were facing each other and were about to start fighting. Zhou Hanchi was determined to take Chu Yi's head, win a victory and return home to show everyone that Da Qi was no match for Da Zhou after all. Princess Anding's decision to abandon Shu Xiao and choose him was the best decision in her life.
However, just as the drums of war were about to sound, more than a dozen people came to the palace, led by the minister Lou Kuan, "Second Prince, the king wants you to withdraw your troops!"
Zhou Hanchi thought this request was ridiculous. Even if it was his father's request, he refused it and said directly: "When a general is away from home, he may not obey the king's orders!"
Then he learned that the eldest prince, the third prince, and the fourth prince were all dead, and he also learned that Princess Anding had passed away.
Lou Kuan said: "The Fifth Prince has ascended the throne and has asked me to ask the Second Prince to return. The war with Daqi will end here!"
After being stunned for a short moment, Zhou Hanchi said nothing and galloped towards the palace as if he was crazy, without stopping for a moment.
During the time Zhou Hanchi returned to the palace, he rescued his uncle's family. With the help of Minister Lou Kuan, he temporarily stabilized the situation in the court.
Now, he prepared thousands of soldiers in the royal city and invited Chu Heyi to go up to the city wall with him to wait for Zhou Hanchi's return.
Zhou Mochi said: "Although the Second Prince has no interest in the throne, he is a fierce general and very loyal to the First Prince. If he surrenders, I will have no problem securing my throne."
Chu Heyi looked into the distance and nodded. She was not too worried about making Zhou Hanchi surrender.
But Zhou Mochi suddenly turned to face her, looked at her face, and said: "In the past you said that you wanted the Northern Zhou Dynasty. I can give it to you, but I want you to agree to one condition. No bloodshed, no death, I just want you--"
Chu Heyi noticed that Zhou Mochen looked like he had given up everything, and there was a burning look in his eyes, and he suddenly had a bad feeling.
