In my previous life, I killed my whole family. In my next life, I killed the royal family.
Chapter 161 Please enter the urn
When the Prussian army was about to set out to encircle and suppress the Nangan Kingdom, news from the Nangan Kingdom reached the valley.
Wang Qin received a secret letter delivered by a carrier pigeon, which contained only a few simple words: "The former Crown Princess died." This sudden news surprised Wang Qin.
He received several more messages in succession before he gradually pieced together the truth behind the death of the late Crown Princess.
It turned out that He had colluded with some of her relatives and attempted to support her six-year-old daughter to ascend the throne. She even shamelessly proclaimed herself the queen mother, but no one was willing to obey her orders.
So, He began to use money and official positions as bait to bribe officials in the court, and some people followed her and bowed down at her feet.
Just when she was feeling elated with pride, something unexpected happened—all the gold and silver she had prepared disappeared without a trace.
Faced with such a situation, He was extremely anxious.
"Where are all my gold, silver and jewelry?"
All the treasures inherited from her mother, the queen mother, or found everywhere, as well as her dowry, were lost.
He hurriedly reported to the Ministry of Justice and demanded that the lost property be found.
The officials conducted a lot of investigations and came to the conclusion that "the East Palace is heavily guarded, and the only people who could have moved the things away were the guards."
He interrogated the people around him but to no avail. They all said they knew nothing.
In desperation, He's eyes involuntarily fell on the magnificent palace built by the current King of Nangan, Wang Qin, for the queen.
The palace was filled with countless precious treasures and generous betrothal gifts, and was obviously a huge treasury.
He ordered his men, "Go to that palace and take away the wealth inside."
She had more than 10,000 guards, but only a few hundred guarded the palace.
The guards obeyed the order and rushed into the palace with weapons in hand, trying to seize the wealth. "Let us in, we are sent by the Queen Mother."
However, the guard leader Yun Ling did not obey the order at all, nor did he resist. Instead, he ran directly to the nearby East Palace, wielded his sword and took He's head. He ran back and threw the bloody head in front of the guards, "Whoever dares to break in will suffer the same fate as her!"
Yun Ling was a great general appointed by the late emperor, and he was only loyal to the emperor.
When those people saw He's head and realized General Yun's true ability, they were immediately frightened and put down their weapons and surrendered.
With the demise of the He family, her entire clan was ruthlessly eradicated by the royal family.
Everyone in the Li royal family knew that if Wang Qin, who had Li blood, became king, they could continue to have a lofty status. If the He family came to power, the Li family's world would become the He family's world, and there would be no good ending for them.
The He family was finally eliminated! This was undoubtedly great news for the Nan'an Kingdom.
Not only that, the royal family also made public and listed in detail the various crimes of the He family. The most serious of these was: disobeying the will of the late emperor, colluding with enemy countries, and attempting to eliminate the new King of Nangan appointed by the late emperor.
These crimes are outrageous and make people even more angry about the He family's actions.
Today, Nan'an Kingdom has finally ushered in the long-lost peace and tranquility.
Now, the country of Nan'an only needs to wait for the King of Nan'an to welcome the queen back to the palace. He will then personally take charge of the overall situation and lead the army to attack foreign races, so that the people can live and work in peace and the country can prosper.
In Wang Qin's words: It's not that I don't have a way to get rid of you, but I want more people to see your greedy face and ignorant actions.
This also applies to Empress Dowager Lu.
She didn't know that the former Crown Princess He of Nannan had her head cut off, which led to the death of her clansmen.
She was extremely determined to wipe out Wang Qin.
Empress Dowager Lu could never find another male favorite like Huang Yi who won her heart. She was filled with regret and resentment towards Wang Qin. "You destroyed the source of my happiness. I want to kill you to vent my hatred."
At this time, Empress Dowager Lu personally directed Duke Huiguo to select soldiers to form an army to eliminate traitors.
On weekdays, the two of them did not meet in the study, but discussed important matters in Empress Dowager Lu's bedroom.
Every time they meet, they can't wait to hug each other, and then quickly go to bed and start a fierce physical battle. Only after both parties are satisfied will they start talking about business in bed.
On this day, Duke Huiguo and Empress Dowager Lu enjoyed themselves to their heart's content in bed. After Empress Dowager Lu was satisfied, Duke Huiguo said with a sad face, "My queen, the storehouse in my mansion was robbed. All the gold, silver and jewelry inside were stolen. Now I am penniless!"
Upon hearing this, Empress Dowager Lu giggled and said, "When you lead the army to get rid of the man named Wang, I will have someone give you a portion of the dowry and betrothal gifts." However, she secretly thought that Duke Huiguo was clearly coveting the dowry in the West Valley and deliberately made up a lie to defraud her of her property.
"I will do my best." After receiving the promise, Duke Huiguo immediately smiled happily, and then served Queen Lu even more diligently.
Duke Huiguo and Lu Xiang mobilized an army of 200,000 and prepared to set out in ten days to encircle and suppress Xishan.
Before sending out the troops, Empress Dowager Lü specifically announced to the world: "The abominable King of Nan'an dared to invade the territory of our Great Pu Dynasty and set up camp on the West Mountain, causing panic among the people at that time and also bringing great pressure to the people in the capital."
Not only that, she also falsely accused, "Many precious properties were stolen from the palace. According to reliable sources, these were all done by King Nan'an's men!"
She did this simply to find a legitimate reason to send troops to encircle and suppress the King of Nangan, the former Prince Pu Chaoqin.
The officials advised Queen Mother Lu, "Don't take action against King Nan'an at this time."
The military commanders were particularly sensitive. They all thought, "If the King of Nan'an was as weak as you, Empress Dowager Lu, think, would he openly come to the Pu Dynasty to pick up his bride and set up camp in the West Valley?"
This is obviously a military tactic - luring the enemy into a trap.
Empress Dowager Lu was ungrateful. She scolded anyone who tried to persuade her, "You have ulterior motives, don't you? You are just exaggerating!"
“You are unfaithful to the Lord!”
Everything Empress Dowager Lu did made all officials increasingly disgusted.
