royal palace.

Prince Qin Changqing of Jin and Prince Qin Changliu of An, along with a group of soldiers, surrounded the place.

Although they captured the capital, they did not capture the palace. However, the palace is now surrounded, and it is only a matter of time before it is breached.

Standing atop the palace wall, Shen Qianjue, the commander of the Imperial Guards, watched the approaching army of Prince Jin and fell silent.

Prince Qin Changqing of Jin said loudly to Shen Qianjue, "The overall situation is settled. Resisting now will only cause unnecessary casualties."

Shen Qianjue remained silent for a moment, then immediately ordered the Imperial Guards under his command, "Open the palace gates!"

"Yes!"

The Imperial Guards breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, since there was no point in fighting now.

Upon seeing this, King Qin Changqing of Jin nodded in satisfaction.

Squeak~~~
The palace gates opened, and Prince Qin Changqing of Jin led his soldiers into the palace.

The Prince of Jin's men completely took over the palace, and thus the overall situation was indeed settled.

Qin Changqing and Qin Changliu were both heading towards the palace where Emperor Yongchang, Qin Chang'an, resided.

"The person is not here."

Qin Changqing calmly asked, "So it's in the Imperial Study?"

Qin Changqing continued leading his men to the Imperial Study, but they did not find any trace of Qin Chang'an there.

Qin Changqing raised his eyebrows slightly, sat on the dragon throne in the imperial study, and calmly said, "Summon Yan Zhanqiu to see me."

"Yes!"

Prince An, Qin Changliu, clasped his hands in acceptance of the order, and then went to summon Yan Zhanqiu, the head of the Eastern Depot.

Before long, Yan Zhanqiu and Qin Changliu arrived at the Imperial Study.

Pfft! !

As soon as Yan Zhanqiu, the eunuch of the Eastern Depot, arrived, he knelt on the ground, his hoarse voice echoing:
"Your humble servant greets Your Majesty!"

Qin Changqing calmly asked, "Where is the fourth brother?"

Yan Zhanqiu said without hesitation, "The Fourth Prince went to the ancestral land!"

"Ok?"

Qin Changqing raised an eyebrow, and then without hesitation, got up and headed to the ancestral land.

At this moment, Qin Changliu wanted to follow, but Qin Changqing shook his head, "I can go by myself."

Qin Changliu then stopped.

……

The ancestral land of the Qin Dynasty.

This place is a special spot in the imperial palace; it is merely a thatched hut, representing the place where the founding emperor of the Qin Dynasty once lived.

Qin Changqing arrived here and found that Emperor Yongchang, Qin Chang'an, had been waiting for him for a long time.

At this moment, Qin Chang'an was bathed in moonlight, and he looked sacred, making it impossible to discern his emotions.

"Fourth brother, you have lost." Qin Changqing looked at Qin Chang'an calmly.

Emperor Yongchang, Qin Chang'an, turned around and looked at Qin Changqing with a calm expression, saying, "Second brother, why did I lose?"

Although Qin Chang'an possessed a keen and insightful mind, he still didn't know why he had lost.

He is just a smart man, not a god, and not omniscient.

Qin Changqing and Qin Chang'an faced each other from a distance in front of a thatched hut.

Qin Changqing said calmly, "Because you are unrealistic. All your imaginations are castles in the air. That is the reason for your failure."

Qin Chang'an calmly said, "So, my ideals are wrong?"

Qin Changqing pondered for a moment, "Your ideals have no fertile ground to be realized."

“Throughout history, everyone has known this is the right thing to do, but no one has been able to do it, including me.” Qin Chang’an’s emotions were unreadable.

Qin Changqing nodded. "You stood on the side of the majority, while I only had a small group of people. But now look, you are isolated and helpless, while I have a huge crowd behind me."

Qin Chang'an fell silent. "More is less, less is more," Qin Changqing said calmly. "You do this for the sake of the world, but who among the world will stand up for you?"

"I simply followed the old methods from history and found so many like-minded people. My team is now full of talented individuals."

Qin Changqing calmly said, "History has proven that my method is effective enough, while your method is nothing but your own fantasy."

"So in this world, what's wrong is right?" Qin Chang'an said calmly.

Qin Changqing calmly said, "What is right and wrong? There is only success and failure!"

Qin Chang'an said, "So you'll stop at nothing to achieve your goals?"

Qin Changqing paused for a moment, then said, “This is the difference between me and you, my fourth brother. Solving the problem is the most important thing. The means are not important. If conditions allow, would I deliberately use dirty methods? Everything is just about pursuing the optimal solution.”

Qin Chang'an fell silent.

Qin Changqing continued, "Your so-called justice and ideals are nothing more than tying your own hands and feet. You've already given up half of your methods before the fight has even begun."

Qin Chang'an looked at Qin Changqing calmly without saying a word.

Qin Changqing continued, "It's like playing chess. You move your pieces according to the rules, but I don't. All my pieces can use all their abilities. My pawns can be used as rooks. How can you fight me?"

Qin Changqing was full of confidence.

History has proven that those who follow the rules can never defeat those who do not.

"Good people can never defeat bad people."

"Therefore, all successful people throughout history are necessarily bad people, and necessarily people who do not follow the rules."

Qin Changqing calmly said, "Of course, only children would distinguish between good and bad people. Anyone who has been to school knows that there are only winners and losers in this world."

"Throughout history and across the world, this applies without exception; this is the way of Heaven!!"

"Going against the will of Heaven is doomed to failure!"

Qin Changqing looked at Qin Chang'an, "It's not too late to turn back from the wrong path!"

Qin Chang'an turned around.

"Just because it's always been this way, does that mean it's right?"

brush! !

Qin Chang'an disappeared.

Qin Changqing watched this scene calmly and said:
"Fourth brother, you still haven't listened."

"Right and wrong are never important, what matters is..."

"I succeeded!"

……

……

Yunzhou, the Imperial Palace.

Boom!Boom!Boom!Boom!
Above the underground palace, Xiao Dashan pounded the ground frantically, then shouted:

"Some people are dead, yet they live on; others are alive, yet they are already dead!"

The next moment, Qin Changge walked out of the underground palace with a majestic aura, having actually broken through to the early stage of the second rank.

Qin Changge was somewhat panicked, "Is it the fourth brother who attacked? Or the second brother?"

Xiao Dashan shook his head. "No, it's just that Prince Jin has already captured the capital, and Emperor Yongchang's whereabouts are unknown!"

[Witness the Prince of Jin's conquest of the capital; Emperor Yongchang's whereabouts are unknown! Witness Points +100!]

Qin Changge paused, then breathed a sigh of relief, before glaring menacingly at Xiao Dashan.

"Didn't I say not to call me out unless it's a matter of life and death?"

Xiao Dashan said somewhat awkwardly, "Your Majesty, don't you think that Prince Jin will soon deal with Yunzhou? Isn't this a matter of life and death?"

Qin Changge thought for a moment, "They should notify us first and let us surrender, right? We can just surrender then."

"Besides, I'm already at the second rank, so no one can stop me from running away!" Qin Changge felt more confident.
