Dressed as the prince's substitute? I took the throne

Zhou Heng looked at Zhou Chuxuan's smiling face, and his heart became more and more uncertain. He didn't know when Zhou Heng started to worry about Salem Meng's plan. Maybe it was because she didn't come to save him.

"Do it!"

At Zhou Chuxuan's command, Nangong Yanling and Murong Xue behind him attacked fiercely. No matter how strong Zhou Heng's martial arts were, they were still superior under Salem Meng's training.

But he was now wearing shackles and chains, and was facing Nangong Yanling and Murong Xue, a pair of top masters of the time.

In less than a cup of tea, they were taken care of by the two women. As for the rest of the Liao spies in the prison, the people showed no mercy and killed them all.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, please come inside and take a look!"

The exclamation of his soldiers made Zhou Chuxuan's heart skip a beat. He hurried inside and saw Xu Hanyan lying in the dungeon with scars all over his body, surrounded by a group of death row prisoners who were staring at him covetously.

Some of the death row prisoners had already broken free from the shackles on their hands and were lying on top of Xu Hanyan, wanting to do that kind of thing to her.

Even when they saw Zhou Chuxuan and others opening the dungeon door, there was no fear or retreat in their eyes. They still looked dazed and continued with their actions.

"Damn it, damn it!"

Zhou Chuxuan took out his pistol and called out the names of these guys one by one.

Soon, all the death row prisoners in the dungeon were dealt with by Zhou Chuxuan.

"Quick, get the ladder!"

Finally, Xu Hanyan opened her eyes and saw Zhou Chuxuan's face. A smile appeared on her scarred face: "You are not dead, you are really not dead!"

Zhou Chuxuan held Xu Hanyan's hand tightly: "Yes, I'm not dead! Hanyan, I'm here to pick you up! From now on, I will never let you suffer any injustice!"

Xu Hanyan nodded slightly. She was exhausted both physically and mentally, and with the serious injuries on her body, she couldn't help but feel her eyelids becoming heavier and heavier. Her head tilted and she fell directly into Zhou Chuxuan's arms.

"Quick, go find the imperial physician. If anything happens to Han Yan, I'll hold them accountable!"

After Zhou Chuxuan finished dealing with the matters in the Heavenly Prison, he led the Fuling Army to the gate of the imperial palace again.

At this time, the civil and military officials were already kneeling on the ground and came to the door of Taiji Hall.

At the same time, Zhou Wanjiang held the Emperor's Sword in his hand, surrounded by hundreds of eunuchs: "Stop right there, what do you want to do? Are you trying to rebel?"

The leader was Xu Qinglong: "Your Majesty, we dare not rebel. We only hope that Your Majesty can mobilize troops to guard against the Liao Kingdom's surprise attack and eliminate the disaster in the Wu Dynasty!"

"Your Majesty, please stop chasing after a myth!"

"Your Majesty, please think again!"

The overwhelming cheers from the civil and military officials put Zhou Wanjiang in a difficult position. He stared at everyone with a pair of cold eyes: "Are you forcing me to make a decision?"

"As the ruler of the Wu Dynasty, do I have to rely on you to decide everything? Humph, normally when I needed you, you all cowered and refused to step forward. Now you just follow the wind and act according to the situation?"

"Father, what you said is wrong!"

At this moment, a hearty voice came from a distance.

Then, Zhou Chuxuan rode a tall horse and rushed in with the Fuling Army and the Imperial Guards, and instantly surrounded the Taiji Hall.

Seeing the living Zhou Chuxuan appear in front of him, Zhou Wanjiang's face changed and he suddenly looked at Canglang beside him, but Canglang's sword had already been unsheathed and was directly across Zhou Wanjiang's neck.

"You, you..."

At this moment, Zhou Wanjiang truly felt the threat of death. Canglang, the person he trusted the most, actually betrayed him at this time.

"Canglang, I trust you so much, yet at such a critical moment, you dare to betray me?"

Facing the rebuke from Emperor Zhou Wanjiang, Canglang sneered, "Canglang? You're wrong! I'm not Canglang. Canglang has been dead for many years. I've been lurking by your side all these years!"

"You're not Canglang?"

Emperor Zhou Wanjiang was startled, then something clicked in his mind: "You are either from Tongfu Inn or Xueyue Tower, right? Apart from these two forces, no one else has the power to place a pawn next to me!"

Canglang remained silent. Of course, he could not admit that he was from Xueyue Tower. Zhou Wanjiang now speculated that there were two forces, and he could not admit it until he got confirmation.

Xueyue Tower is not like Tongfu Inn. If Zhou Wanjiang is not dead and wants to settle the score later, Xueyue Tower is very likely to not be able to withstand Zhou Wanjiang's anger.

The countless black-armored guards around him looked at their leader in shock, but after seeing the token in Zhou Wanjiang's hand, they resolutely pointed their weapons at Canglang.

Canglang was not surprised by this. The Black Armor Guards were a group of emotionless guys. Not to mention that he had led them for decades, even if it was a few more decades, a token was enough to make them turn against him.

"Zhou Chuxuan, Canglang, do you two really think you have a chance of winning? The Black Armored Guards are by my side now. If I issue a decree before I die, these two thousand Black Armored Guards will absolutely fight you to the death. By then, I believe you will also suffer heavy casualties, right?"

Facing Zhou Wanjiang's threat, Zhou Chuxuan smiled and said, "Father, why are you so nervous? This time, I am only here to eliminate the Liao Kingdom's spies, not to seek power and usurp the throne!"

"hehe!"

Zhou Wanjiang sneered, and naturally did not believe Zhou Chuxuan's nonsense in his heart: "Sixth Brother, you are not my Sixth Brother. I believe you are very clear about this. I just don't know if the civil and military officials are clear about it!"

"Of course I know!"

Zhou Chuxuan smiled and pointed at the unresponsive civil and military officials, saying, "I believe Lord Xu has already explained the reasoning behind this to them!"

"You, you..."

Looking at Xu Qinglong and the civil and military officials below, Zhou Wanjiang suddenly felt an endless sense of sadness and loneliness in his heart.

It turns out that I have been a real loner for a long time.

"Your Majesty, now that Prince Xiaoyao has regained his loyalty, I ask Your Majesty to reinstate him as Crown Prince and work with Your Majesty to maintain the stability of the Wu Dynasty and achieve its prosperity!"

Zhou Wanjiang was stunned after hearing what Xu Qinglong said. From what they said, it seemed that they still wanted him to continue to be the emperor, but just wanted to restore Zhou Chuxuan's position as the crown prince?

"I, it's approved!"

After thinking for a long time, Zhou Wanjiang knew that he was now completely in the hands of the enemy. If he ordered a hard fight, he could certainly fight to the death with the enemy.

But this is not the result Zhou Wanjiang wants. What he wants is to find a way to achieve immortality. He is not far from this goal and is not willing to give up.

Zhou Chuxuan dismounted with a smile on his face.

"Father, are you sincere?"
