The tyrant empress is my wife, I am invincible and have been hiding

"Your Majesty, the four of us brothers have followed you for so many years, aren't we better than that king? Even if you want to retire, there's no need to take away our military power, right?"

Yang Ting looked at the maid bringing the wine glass to him, anger and unwillingness in the depths of his eyes. He never expected that Zhao Pan was so timid.

Ye Feng hadn't even arrived in Huainan County yet, but the other party had already started to prepare a retreat plan, which really disappointed them.

"That's right. Since the prince wants to submit to the court and surrender to the king, we should follow suit." Song Qiao also spoke from the other side.

"Hahaha……"

Zhao Pan laughed loudly when he heard this. How could he not know the tempers of the four men under his command? If he did not take back their military power, there would definitely be a disaster.

"You four have followed me for decades. Don't I know your temper? If you still recognize me as your lord, drink this cup of wine and put the military token on your waist on the plate."

Zhao Pan was very clear that Yang Ting, Song Qiao and other four people had given him advice many times, hoping that he could become an independent king and become the fifth prince of the Song Dynasty.

Unfortunately, Zhao Pan saw it more clearly. Although the Song Dynasty was falling apart and seemed to be in chaos, as long as the girl Zhao Qiuyan was alive, there would be no chaos.

The reason is very simple, Zhao Qiuyan has a strong talent for martial arts and may become a land immortal in the future. No matter how strong and powerful you four princes are, you dare not provoke a strong man who has the opportunity to become a land immortal in the future.

What's more, now Ye Feng, the king of the country, has appeared unexpectedly. Although his martial arts talent is not as good as Zhao Qiuyan's, his ability to govern the country is obviously rare in the world.

Not to mention Ye Feng's achievements in capturing the Eighteen Cities of Yanyun, the fact that he toured the world on behalf of Zhao Qiuyan alone was enough to kill many ambitious people.

Zhao Pan thought clearly that with the strength in his hands, he was not qualified to fight with Ye Feng. Besides, he was already old, why should he bother himself and work hard, licking blood on the tip of the knife all day long?

Now that Ye Feng is coming to Huainan County, even if the other party wants him to give up Huainan County, it is not a bad idea. He has been in charge of Huainan County for so many years and has had enough of it.

"The prince deliberately gathered the four of us together just to deprive us of our military power. Do we have any choice?" Yang Ting shook his head, with cold murderous intent in the depths of his eyes. He was about to reach out to lift the wine glass in front of him, but the spiritual power in his body took the opportunity to surge.

The moment he raised his wine glass with one hand, he suddenly rushed towards Zhao Pan and said, "My Lord, I'm sorry!"

"you dare?"

Zhao Pan's eyes opened wide, his old eyes bursting with anger. With a loud shout, the guards around him rushed to Zhao Pan very quickly.

Dozens of people attacked Yang Ting at the same time. Each of them had the cultivation base of the late innate realm. They attacked in unison and killed Yang Ting.

Zhao Pan was obviously prepared. As his old voice rang out, hundreds of guards rushed into the huge hall, each holding a spear and sword, and rushed towards Yang Ting.

"Can't you see that this old man wants to kill us to win credit for the king? Do you three want to sit there and wait for death?"

Yang Ting raised his hand and knocked away several attacking guards, then shouted at Song Qiao and the other three generals, wanting to invite them to attack together.

"Humph! I just want to save you. Don't you think that Ye Feng has come all this way, and even the Xun family can't do anything to him. How can you do that?"

Zhao Pan's face was full of anger and he felt a little regretful inside. If he had known the situation would be like this, he should not have raised troops in the first place, and Yang Ting and others would not have become so powerful.

clatter! clatter! clatter!

At this time, footsteps were heard outside the hall, and a middle-aged man appeared. He was wearing a white robe, a crown on his head, and a sword at his waist. He was elegant and walked slowly into the hall. A faint smile appeared on his face. He said, "General Yang, don't be impulsive. My father is old and has lost his ambition to make progress. Don't blame him. It's better for me to be in charge of Huainan County in the future."

"You rebellious son, I am the King of Huainan. When will it be your turn to make the decision? Get out of here." When Zhao Pan saw his son Zhao Tuan coming in, he had a bad premonition.

"Father, you are so old. Since you want to enjoy your retirement, let your son share the burden with you." Zhao Tuan was scolded by Zhao Pan, but he was not angry and still had a faint smile on his face.

"Come here, take him down for me!"

Zhao Pan was furious. He didn't expect Zhao Tuan to be so arrogant. He shouted immediately.

But the guards around him just stood there, unmoved.

On the other hand, Zhao Tuan walked to the chair next to him and sat down. He looked at Generals Song Qiao, Yang Ting and others and said, "Don't worry, generals. I will be the King of Huainan from now on. After we kill the King of the State, Ye Feng, we can set up the banner of clearing the court and raise troops to serve the king."

"General Yang Ting (Song Qiao) pays homage to the King of Huainan!"

It was obvious that Yang Ting and the other four had been colluding with Zhao Tuan for a long time. They came straight to Zhao Tuan and knelt down in front of him, with smug looks on their faces.

"Someone, arrest him for me."

Zhao Tuan had a stern look on his face and gave an order to the guards.

"You dare?"

Zhao Pan looked at the guards around him and said angrily.

"My Lord, I am sorry!"

Then they saw a leader of the guards, who bowed slightly to Zhao Pan, and rushed towards Zhao Pan with dozens of guards. In a short moment, they caught Zhao Pan and brought him in front of Zhao Tuan.

"Zhao Tuan, you are a rebellious son. Your ambition will kill our whole family. Do you know that?" Zhao Pan looked at the smug Zhao Tuan in front of him and his face was ferocious with anger.

"hehe!"

Zhao Tuan didn't take it seriously. He stood up and drank the wine cup held by the maid. His eyes were filled with cold murderous intent. He said coldly, "I have invited King Ye Feng to come to Huainan City in your name. If he dares to come, it will be his death. As long as Ye Feng is killed, I can sit back and relax as the King of Huainan, and I can continue to recruit soldiers and horses. One day, I can raise troops to serve the king and ascend the throne to become emperor."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Zhao Pan was amused by his son's naivety when he heard this. He said disdainfully, "I advise you to turn back from your wrong path. Everyone wants to be the emperor, but they don't know that as long as the Song Dynasty has not perished, the throne is a hot potato. Li Linpu is not a smart man. He has controlled the government for nearly 20 years and has never been emperor. Just relying on the Huainan County you control?"

"It's not too late for you to regret now. That state guardian is not someone you can easily mess with."

Zhao Tuan finally became the King of Huainan and controlled the troops and everything in the entire Huainan County. How could he give up so easily? Instead, he said coldly: "Don't worry, I will let you see how I kill Ye Feng and realize my ambition step by step. When I become the emperor in the future, I can also make you the emperor emeritus."

At this point, Zhao Tuan said coldly: "Take him to the dungeon and lock him up. No one is allowed to approach him without my order."

"As ordered!"

Several guards escorted Zhao Pan out of the hall.

"You idiot! Idiot!"

Zhao Pan was escorted out of the hall, cursing madly. He thought that he could save the lives of his entire family by planning everything carefully, but he didn't expect that he made a wrong move and overlooked the ambition of his eldest son, Zhao Tuan.
