Traveling through the ancient times

The King of Xiliang scratched his throat hard, trying to spit out the bird's nest soup he had eaten.

Concubine Xi looked at the King of Xiliang like this and thought it was ridiculous. "Don't waste your energy. Why would you spit out what you have eaten?"

"You bitch, I'm going to kill you." The King of Xiliang wanted to reach out and grab Concubine Xi, but because he had been lying in bed for too long, he was weak all over and fell down on the bed. "Someone, someone, someone! Where are the dead people? Where are they?"

The King of Xiliang shouted angrily, but got no response.

"What does your king want to call people for? Do you want to sentence me to death as well?" Concubine Xi stood aside and looked down at the King of Xiliang who was lying on the ground unable to move, with a crazy look in her eyes.

"No, no one will come. They all hope that you will die soon so that they can take over your throne."

"Shut up, you bitch!"

"Your Majesty, why are you still cursing? You used to call me your beloved concubine! You should thank me, otherwise, wouldn't you be even more angry if you were killed by your own son?"

"No, they dare..."

"Why wouldn't they dare? They can even kill their brother who poses no threat to them. What's more, you are occupying the throne they want. If they kill you, they can get the throne. Do you think they dare? Hahaha..."

"No... No..." The King of Xiliang was filled with fear. He knew that what Concubine Xi said was true. Would his sons really dare to...

At this time, the palace maid who brought Concubine Xi over was quickly walking to a side hall and secretly lighting a signal firework. The colorful fireworks instantly exploded in the sky, foreshadowing the beginning of the battle for the throne.

General Qilin led hundreds of thousands of troops and rushed straight to the gate of the imperial city. Lu Mingqian's men had already been lurking near the gate. Seeing the army approaching, the leader of the imperial city guards ordered everyone to be on alert and prepare to resist the enemy.

"General Qilin, what do you mean?" The leader of the Imperial City Guard was a little puzzled. Why would the rebel be General Qilin? General Qilin was the god of war in the hearts of the Xiliang soldiers.

"Your Majesty has withheld military pay, causing millions of soldiers on the border to go hungry. This general wants to go in and ask the king on behalf of the soldiers what exactly is going on here?"

"I advise the general to be patient and think twice before acting. You are leading the army to force the emperor to abdicate. This is a capital crime of treason and the entire clan will be executed."

"It's okay. I'll go and find out the truth. The king is in charge of deciding whether to kill or chop you up. General Wei, please open the city gate!" General Qilin has unsheathed his sword.

"Since the general won't listen to my advice, don't blame me for being rude." The leader of the Imperial City Guard, General Wei, waved his hand and said, "Shoot!"

Hundreds of arrows flew towards them. Taking advantage of this opportunity, a soldier dressed in the clothes of the Imperial Guard quietly walked to the city gate and opened the bolt.

The imperial guards were in chaos. "General, this is bad. The city gate has been opened."

"What?" General Wei looked at the soldiers in front of him in disbelief. "Who did it?" No one answered his question!

The imperial city gate slowly opened...

"The door is open, everyone charge!" General Qilin led his men and rushed inside, waving their swords to block the flying arrows.

When the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince heard that General Qilin was leading his troops to force the King to abdicate, they hurried to the King of Xiliang's bedroom. They wanted to get the imperial seal and the military token before General Qilin arrived.

The fifth prince arrived at the bedroom of King Xiliang first. King Xiliang kept struggling on the ground to get up, while Concubine Xi stood aside admiring King Xiliang's ugly appearance and said a few words from time to time, which made King Xiliang spit out several mouthfuls of old blood, and Concubine Xi laughed with joy!

"Father, what's wrong with you?" The Fifth Prince saw the King of Xiliang lying on the ground, rushed over and carried the King of Xiliang to the bed.

"Old Fifth, you've come at the right time. Hurry up and kill this bitch. Cut her into pieces immediately!" The King of Xiliang said excitedly. He felt a fishy and sweet taste in his throat and vomited blood.

"Father, don't get excited. General Qilin is leading a large army to force your way to the palace. You should quickly hand over the jade seal and the military token to me so that I can capture the traitor and bring him to apologize to you, father." The fifth prince only wanted the jade seal and the military token. He didn't bother to care about the King of Xiliang and his concubine.

The King of Xiliang was stunned for a moment when he heard this. "General Qilin is leading his troops to force the emperor to abdicate?"

"Yes, father, there is no time to lose. Please hand over the jade seal and the military token to me as soon as possible." The fifth prince was very anxious. He was afraid that if he delayed any longer, the third prince would come over, and it would be even more difficult for him to get the things. So he kept urging the King of Xiliang.

The King of Xiliang looked at the anxious Fifth Prince, but what he thought in his heart was that the Fifth Prince wanted to use this excuse to trick the Imperial Seal and the Military Token from him. He wanted his throne, and even ignored him when he asked him to kill Concubine Xi. How could General Qilin rebel? He was the most loyal person.

"You want the imperial seal and the military token?" The King of Xiliang stared at the fifth prince with his turbid eyes.

"Look, Your Majesty, I've already said it, they all just want your throne, hahahaha..." Concubine Xi was almost insane, and when she heard the Fifth Prince's words, she couldn't help but fan the flames.

"Shut up!" King Xiliang couldn't help but roared in anger.

"Fifth Prince, just give up on this idea. The king himself is reluctant to give up this position, so how could he give it to you? Haha..." Concubine Xi wanted them to kill each other, and the throne should be given to General Qilin, and everyone else should be buried with her son.

"I told you to shut up, you bitch..." The fifth prince drew the sword beside him and killed the troublesome and noisy crazy woman with one stroke. "Ah..."

Concubine Xi opened her eyes wide, she wanted to watch how these father and son died!

"Father, I have already killed her for you. Please give her to me quickly. It will be too late if you delay any longer."

"What do you mean it's too late?" The third prince's voice came into the bedroom.

The Third Prince walked to the bedside of the King of Xiliang, looked at the King of Xiliang, who was dying with blood all over his mouth, and asked, "Fifth brother, what did you do to our father?"

"What are you talking about, Third Brother? I just got here too. Father was so angry at Concubine Xi that he vomited blood." The Fifth Prince said, pointing at Concubine Xi who was lying on the side.

"Isn't Concubine Xi under house arrest by father? Why is she here? Could it be that you, fifth brother, and Concubine Xi have teamed up to stage this drama?" The third prince is much more cunning than the fifth prince.

After hearing this, the King of Xiliang remembered that Concubine Xi was indeed under house arrest by him, and he could not help but look at the Fifth Prince suspiciously.

Seeing that the King of Xiliang seemed to believe the words of the Third Prince, the Fifth Prince angrily accused, "Third brother, please stop slandering me. I just heard that General Qilin led his troops to force the palace, and I was worried about my father's safety, so I hurried here. This Imperial Concubine Xi is here, but it has nothing to do with me."

The King of Xiliang turned to look at the Third Prince, "Did General Qilin really lead his troops to force the emperor to abdicate?"

"Yes, father. General Wei and the Imperial Guards are guarding outside. They cannot come in for a while. I came here to take you out to hide first. Why don't you leave with me now?" The third prince said it cleverly. He did not even mention the matter of the jade seal and military token. He only said that he wanted to take the King of Xiliang out to hide.

These words comforted the King of Xiliang a lot. Fortunately, he still had a son who really cared about him.

When the Fifth Prince heard that the Third Prince was going to take the King of Xiliang away, he was shocked. How could that be possible? If the King of Xiliang was taken away by the Third Prince, then wouldn’t the throne belong to the Third Prince?

"No, there are General Qilin's men everywhere outside. Where can father hide? Only this palace is the safest place. Father, please don't listen to my third brother."

"I won't listen to the third brother. Do you want me to listen to you?" The King of Xiliang's eyes were full of anger. If eyes could kill, the fifth prince would have been wiped out long ago.

"Yes, father..." The Fifth Prince felt a sharp pain in his chest before he could finish his words. He slowly lowered his head and saw a sword stuck in his chest, and the person holding the sword was the King of Xiliang.

"Father...why..." The fifth prince stared at his father in front of him with wide eyes.

"Why? You ask me why?" King Xiliang said, pulling out the sword fiercely. Blood spurted out immediately, splashing all over King Xiliang.

The fifth prince fell to the ground and died with his eyes open...
