Emperor Huizong (Zhao Ji) did not expect Yan Qing to actually dare to make a move.

The threat of death immediately made him realize that even his identity as emperor was useless, so he hurriedly said...

"Hero, spare my life! What do you want, hero?"

"Just tell me, and I will definitely grant your request."

Cui Ying saw Yan Qing slash Zhao Ji's neck.

She fainted from fright.

Zhao Yuan, Wu Song, and Shi Xiu entered.

Seeing that Yan Qing had successfully captured Zhao Ji,

It is also a great joy.

The two guards at the door saw them come in.

Just as he was about to dodge,

Yan Qing then shouted,

"Do not move."

Zhao Yuan glanced at the two who were standing obediently.

After thinking for a moment, he said,

"You two go out and keep watch,"

"When the people of Fanlou asked,"

"Then they said that the person who broke in had been captured."

"If you dare to run away,"

"Or to tip them off,"

"Then we'll kill this dog emperor."

"What will be the consequences then?"

You should know, right?

The two of them naturally knew,

If they lost their lives because of Zhao Ji,

Regardless of who inherits the throne at that time...

They will definitely not be spared.

The best outcome would be the execution of the entire family.

Chapter 1697 Surrender

If the new emperor is ruthless,

That would mean the extermination of three entire families.

Their entire family, numbering nine generations, was exterminated.

...

However, neither of them dared to act on their own.

They could only look to Zhao Ji.

Emperor Huizong knew they were hesitant to act rashly,

It's completely useless.

In order not to anger these people, he had no choice but to say,

"Follow their orders."

The two received orders from Emperor Huizong.

Only then did he go out.

It turns out that when Yan Qing and Cui Ying were talking about love in the room every day,

Shi Qian was keeping watch from outside.

When Zhao Ji arrived,

He immediately notified Zhao Yuan and the other two who were drinking upstairs.

When Zhao Yuan and his two companions rushed in just now,

Although he knocked both of them unconscious in just a few rounds

However, Zhao Yuan was still afraid that someone would see or hear the commotion.

Therefore, he sent those two guards to fool the people at Fanlou.

Emperor Huizong of Song (Zhao Ji) was also a clever man.

At this moment, it became clear that Zhao Yuan and his men had come prepared.

I felt as if I had fallen into a trap.

Usurpation? Coup?

Is someone trying to seize power?

A terrifying thought flashed through Zhao Ji's mind in an instant.

Zhao Yuan saw Yan Qing looking at Cui Ying, who had fainted below, with concern.

He then sent Shi Xiu to replace Yan Qing.

Zhao Ji mustered his courage and said,

"Who are you?"

Zhao Yuan laughed and said, "What, after all these years, Your Majesty doesn't recognize me?"

After saying that, Zhao Yuan tore off the disguise on his face.

Upon seeing his true face,

Zhao Ji was stunned for a moment.

Then his face turned red.

Unredeemable channel

"It's actually you!"

Yan Qing, Wu Song, and others standing nearby,

Everyone looked at the two of them with puzzlement.

"Brother, do you know this dog emperor?"

Wu Song asked.

"A few years ago, a major assassination attempt on the emperor occurred in Kaifeng,"

Zhao Yuan laughed.

Do you know?

"I've heard that the corrupt official Gao Qiu also died in that assassination attempt,"

Wu Song nodded.

"I remember back then the imperial court was still in power throughout the land,"

"Issue the warrant for the assassin Zhao Yuan."

"My real name is Zhao Yuan!"

Zhao Yuan said coldly,

"Zhao Dalang is just an alias."

"what?"

Wu Song and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.

Obviously, no one expected this.

Zhao Yuan had actually done something so significant in the past.

But thinking about it,

He is now leading himself and others in a rebellion.

Wu Song and his companions gradually calmed down.

"Zhao Yuan, I have treated you well. Why did you attempt to assassinate me back then?!"

Zhao Ji asked in confusion,

"Just for that one Li Shishi,"

"Or do you have someone from the royal family backing you?"

Are you suspecting your brothers or princes?

Zhao Yuan countered with a question.

Zhao Ji asked doubtfully, "Isn't that right?"

As expected, there is no kinship in the royal family.

Yan Qing pressed several acupoints on Cui Ying's body.

Cui Ying then slowly woke up.

Seeing that Zhao Yuan and the other two had arrived,

They are still holding the emperor hostage.

He couldn't help but panic.

"Xiao Yi, quickly tell them to release the Emperor!"

"Otherwise, the world is so vast,"

"There is nowhere for us to stay."

Yan Qing heard that the emperor had been kidnapped.

Cui Ying was even willing to flee with him to the ends of the earth.

Moved, he said

"Don't worry, Ying'er, it's no longer his place to rule the world."

When Zhao Ji heard Yan Qing say this,

They knew it was a coup d'état.

However, judging from Zhao Yuan's appearance...

It seems he really isn't a member of the Zhao family.

Could it be a high-ranking official in the imperial court?

Who could it be?

Without him as emperor,

Only a handful of people can control the government.

Cui Ying looked at Yan Qing with a puzzled expression.

"Why do you say that, Brother Xiao Yi?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Qing

He couldn't help but look at Zhao Yuan.
