Taking the blame for the fake daughter: After being released from prison, she went on a killing spre

Fu Wanshu was sitting by the window checking accounts when he suddenly heard rumbling thunder, followed soon by a heavy rain pouring down.

She suddenly remembered that the injured beggar was still in the bushes, and she didn't know whether he was dead or alive.

It’s raining so hard, I’m afraid I’ll get soaked, right?

She stood up and left the window. After taking down the oil-paper umbrella, she felt something was wrong, so she turned around and put on a veil hat on her head. She then asked her brother for a big bamboo hat and asked him to accompany her.

"Right over there..." She pointed to the bushes where she had found the beggar before.

Fu Han went over to push aside the branches covered with rainwater, but he didn't see anyone. Just as he was about to say that he must have woken up and left, he heard a man's clear and gentle voice coming from deep in the bushes:

"It was the girl who saved me today?"

The voice reached Fu Wanshu's ears through the noisy sound of rain. She looked in the direction of the voice and saw a tall figure walking out of the woods.

Xiao Mu's dirty face revealed its true appearance under the rain.

Fu Wanshu could only see a vague outline through the rain and the veil.

But Fu Han saw clearly that this man had a dignified appearance and a noble demeanor, and was definitely not an ordinary beggar.

He immediately stepped forward to block Xiao Mu's sight towards Fu Wanshu, and threw the hat in his hand to him.

"Since you are fine, please leave quickly and don't come back again."

Fu Wanshu didn't say anything, which meant he agreed with his brother's opinion.

Xiao Mu took a step back and bowed to Fu Wanshu: "Miss, I will repay you for your kindness one day. See you later."

He put on his hat and quickly disappeared in the rain.

Fu Wanshu never expected that the little beggar he rescued was actually a gentleman who knew when to act.

"Let's go back!"

After returning home, Fu Han handed the umbrella to the servant, and then said to Fu Wanshu: "This man is definitely not a beggar."

"Brother, why do you say that?" It is said that one should not judge a person by his appearance. Even beggars can have good looks!

"A person's appearance cannot reveal his identity and character, but his eyes can. This person's eyes not only do not have the cowardice and humility of a beggar, but instead carry the murderous aura of a superior."

Fu Wanshu's heart shrank slightly, she felt a little scared and a little regretful. She believed what her brother said, and she hoped that her momentary weakness would not bring disaster to her family...

After settling the hostages rescued from prison, Xiao Mu took the witnesses and the news and left the city overnight to meet Xiao Ji Chen.

Xiao Jing's army commander did not expect to see his wife on the battlefield.

He originally thought that his family had fallen from Xiao Jing's hands to Xiao Jichen's hands, but he didn't expect that Xiao Jichen would directly release them, allowing the couple to reunite on the battlefield.

"...Why...why?" The coach looked at his wife who was within his reach, his face full of surprise.

He was ready to choose between his wife and the monarch.

Xiao Ji Chen stood on the city wall in silver armor, with a black cloak fluttering behind him.

"War is a matter between men and should not involve women and children." His calm answer was deafening to Xiao Jing's army.

On one side is an enlightened and conciliatory policy, and on the other side is a ruthless and high-pressure approach. Obviously, the former can touch people's hearts more.

Xiao Jing's army finally surrendered without a fight. Xiao Jichen led an army of 100,000 and marched straight to the imperial city in the name of clearing the court.

The rise of Prince Su was in line with God's will and the people's wish. Along the way, some generals defending the city even took the initiative to open the city gates and lay down their weapons to welcome him.

Xiao Jing's forces were in disarray, and in just three months, Xiao Jichen had his troops at the gates of the city!

Xiao Jing finally decided to seal the city gates under the instigation of treacherous ministers, and threatened Prince Su to withdraw his troops with the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in the city.

He was even willing to give three more cities to Prince Su in addition to the three cities of Yanbei, allowing him to establish his own vassal state.

After forbearing and planning for so long, and now that he is only one step away from the throne, how could Prince Su turn back just because of this "small favor"?

However, the lives of more than 300,000 people in the city are no joke. It is not difficult to attack by force, but the difficulty lies in how to keep the casualties to a minimum.

Dozens of civilians were forced to kneel on the high city wall. As long as Prince Su did not withdraw his troops, they would slaughter fifty people every incense stick until the entire city was buried with him.

The treacherous ministers who had always been at odds with Prince Su also went up to the city wall one after another. They wanted to see what was at stake: on one side were the lives of the people, and on the other side was the supreme throne.

"Isn't Prince Su a benevolent person? Does he want the throne that's right in front of him or not?"

"Bah! Who can't pretend to be a good person? Today I want to see if he is really as the legend says, loving the people like his own children. His 'children' are all going to be killed, can he be willing to give up the throne?"

When a stick of incense burned out on the city wall, the first group of men, women, young and old who were to be beheaded were pushed out.

"Don't kill me, I have old people and young children to take care of, I can't die!"

"Sir, we haven't broken any law, why are you killing us?"

The executioner who was watching kicked the man on the back and said, "If you want to blame someone in the underworld, blame Prince Su. Who told him to rebel?"

"OK--"

Before the executioner could finish his sentence, an arrow shot through his throat. With the arrow in his throat, he fell straight down from the towering city wall, his head bursting with blood.

Several complacent corrupt officials on the city wall changed color when they heard this, and they all squatted down and sought cover, fearing that Xiao Jichen would shoot another arrow at them.

As they squatted down, they shouted in anger: "Hurry up and kill these untouchables!!!"

Under the city, Xiao Ji Chen frowned and clenched and unclenched the bow in his hand again and again.

He was unwilling to watch innocent people die, but at the same time he could not retreat even a single step, otherwise the tyrant Xiao Jing would only become more aggressive.

"Prince, look--" Qingying and Feipeng on their horses beside him pointed at the sky and shouted at the same time.

When Xiao Ji Chen and everyone else looked up, they saw dense flocks of birds coming from all directions in the sky, covering the sun and blocking out the clouds. It was a spectacular sight.

The flock of birds gathered into a black mass and flew towards the city.

When the guards on the city wall were stunned by the scene before them, the flock of birds dispersed, swooped down and attacked the guards in official uniforms and armor.

It was as if they had been trained, or perhaps had developed intelligence, and knew that human eyes were fragile, so three or five of them would surround a person and focus on the eyes.

"what--"

"Go away——"

The city was filled with screams of panic and anger, so how could anyone have the time to massacre the civilians?

Faced with this scene, the people in the city and the army below the city were all stunned.

Until Xiao Jichen drew his sword and pointed it at the city gate: "All generals, listen to my order, attack the city——"

"Kill!!!"

Thousands of soldiers rushed straight to the city gate, climbed up the city wall with ladders, and used battering rams to hit the city gate.

The city was attacked at 3 p.m. and breached at 5 p.m. The deafening sound of fighting seemed to reach the palace walls. Xiao Jing, who saw the situation was hopeless, hid behind the dragon throne and trembled in fear. Was he going to be forced to wake up from his dream of becoming an emperor?
