Chapter 597 Loyalty and Bravery (3)
In the city of Haojing, there are corpses all over the place, and the flames are soaring into the sky. Since Xirong occupied Haojing, the military discipline of the [-] troops was very poor. The generals of Xirong were busy looting all the good things in the palace, and no one cared about Concubine Jiang in the harem As well as Baihe, Concubine Ge, Concubine Jing and others.

The sky was getting dark, and the crows covered the sun with clouds, almost covering the sun's brilliance. "Your Majesty, why didn't Xirong re-appoint you as Queen of the Great Zhou Dynasty? And His Royal Highness King Lu, why hasn't he come to Beijing to succeed to the throne?" Baihe, the maid next to Concubine Jiang, stared at Concubine Jiang's disappointed eyes strangely.

"I'm afraid that Xi Rong used us, and felt that it would be more cost-effective to usurp the throne by us instead of relying on us, so he changed his mind!" Concubine Ge, who was beside Concubine Jiang, said in a panic.

"Concubine Ge, don't worry, if Xirong wants to gain a foothold in the Central Plains, it must rely on our power to overwhelm the princes. The position of the emperor of the Great Zhou cannot be counted by me. Let's see, it won't be long before Bordin will come to ask for help!" Concubine Jiang suddenly smiled and regained her usual arrogance and shrewdness.

"Mother, it's not good. I heard that the king was killed in the Lishan Palace. Instead of killing Bao Si, the demon girl, Xi Rong took her back to Beijing with the empress's etiquette. Look, will Xi Rong change his mind and prepare to change his mind?" King Li Song inheriting the throne?" At this time, the panic-stricken Concubine Jing came in and reported in a low voice.

"Baosi, has this lowly hoof been favored by Bordin again? It's really haunting. For so many years, I have painstakingly spread rumors, ruined her reputation and integrity, and isolated her alone, but it has no effect at all." No? Impossible!" Concubine Jiang stood up angrily and impulsively overturned the book in front of her.

"What's the matter? Has the Empress lost her temper again?" At this time, Boding, who was in good spirits, walked slowly into Qiu Yunxuan. Concubine Jiang glared at Boding angrily and said: "Boding, don't forget According to our agreement, after the matter is completed, I will make the king of Lu in my palace as the emperor, and I will protect you Xirong with endless glory and wealth. Why, in just a few days, you are going to betray my palace and make Baosi another A witch?"

"Concubine Jiang, I'm afraid you don't know yet. Baosi is already pregnant with Minggong's flesh and blood. Once he gives birth to a prince, his status is naturally more suitable to inherit the throne of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The more beneficial it is!" Bodin stroked his beard and laughed.

"Just for this? Boding, you are wrong. Baosi is notorious, and she has no power, how can she convince the public? Think about it, the son of the palace, King Lu, has a powerful army in his hands and is famous all over the world. You Xirong, don't make a wrong calculation, think about it carefully, only when King Lu of this palace ascends the throne, can it be more beneficial to you Xirong!" Concubine Jiang tried her best to persuade.

"Concubine Jiang, you are wrong. Although Baosi has been slandered and scolded for nothing, she supports the reform and has done a lot of good things to the subjects of the Great Zhou over the years. It is obvious to all. To be honest, her reputation is much better than yours. Alright!" Burdine retorted.

"Boding, what do you know about troublesome people? In this world, only power is the most real. If you Xirong don't unite with this palace, then in the Central Plains, you will be besieged by princes and die without a place to die!" The concubine twisted her face and threatened loudly.

The Hall of Shuilong Shuren, the place where the emperor of the Great Zhou used to go to court, has been burned beyond recognition by a fire at this time, only the quiet Jianjia Palace is still intact. After returning to Haojing, he was imprisoned in Jianjia Palace for days like years. It was spring at this time, and the cold wind was still howling in the sluggish palace. The cook steamed some pancakes for everyone and brought them to satisfy their hunger. Bao Si sadly grabbed Ah Xi's wrist and asked, "A Xi, tell me quickly, where will Mei Gui be buried after his death? Take me to worship?"

"Well, my lord, the capital is in such a mess now that tens of thousands of people are killed every day, so there's no way to care about disposing of the corpses. I'm afraid there's nothing Axi can do to help!" Axi said with a frown.

"Oh, I didn't expect her to die at such a young age. If I had known that the defense around me was in danger, Lu Kai shouldn't have encouraged the king to randomly light the beacon fire on the beacon tower!" Bao Si frowned and sighed.

"My lord, the matter is over. It's useless to think about it any more. It's better to take good care of your body. You must be actively rescuing the young master now. Don't worry. You are the one who is stubborn. If you don't save us, he will I won’t let it go!” Ah Xi comforted me.

"Axi, thank you, it's a friend in need!" Bao Si couldn't help but smile leisurely at Axi.

"Get out of the way, the sword is ruthless. We have come to execute the common man Bao Si under the order of Empress Jiang, and if you don't want to die, get out of the way!" The guards rushed into Jianjia Palace with swords and guns, and pointed the gleaming long sword at Baosi.

"What do you want to do? The empress is the royal wife of Da Zhou, if you are soldiers of Da Zhou, put down your swords and guns for this girl!" A Xi stood in front of Baosi without hesitation, threatening the imperial guards with a stern voice.

"Empress Jiang has a decree. The traitorous concubine praises the concubine, disrupts the palace, overthrows the country, and causes the emperor to die. It is a great treason and immorality. I am anxious to depose him as a commoner and give him death!" The imperial guards laughed strangely and unfolded the edict.

"Nonsense, do you think we are easy to bully?" Unmoved, the furious Axi pulled out a sharp long sword from his waist.

"Stop! Who are you? Without my order, who would dare to be rough on my guests?" At this moment, Boding suddenly rushed out of the ruins of the Shuilong Shuren Hall, bringing a lot of people with him. The Xirong guards immediately surrounded the imperial guards who announced the decree, and Boding rushed into the Jianjia Palace angrily, and loudly reprimanded him.

"The villain is terrified. The villain was ordered by the Marshal's wife and Concubine Jiang, please spare the Marshal!" The imperial guards were so frightened that their faces turned pale, and they all knelt down to plead guilty.

"Bo Ding, why did you stop me from killing Bao Si?" At this time, the domineering Yun Niang, followed by the maid again, rushed into the scene of Jianjia Palace.
