Mr. Zhao and his advisors hurriedly helped him up.

The scene was chaotic!

Just then, Mu Yunshan, Wang Gang, and a group of guards, maids, and other servants arrived at the front courtyard.

Even from a distance, they could hear Qin Xiao referring to himself as "I" and saying he wanted to bestow the title of Imperial Concubine upon his young lady.

In an instant, everyone stopped in their tracks and stood frozen in place!

"Young Master Qin, is he actually His Majesty the Emperor?"

"These past few days, we've been addressing His Majesty the Emperor as a brother."

"Still making fun of him?"

Wang Gang and his guards looked at each other in bewilderment.

Zhi Shu and the maids covered their mouths, their beautiful eyes wide open, looking at Qin Xiao and then at Mu Ziyan.

Now I understand why the young lady was so calm.

Why is the master so confident?

It turns out that the son-in-law is actually the current emperor!

Only Mu Yunshan looked embarrassed and muttered quietly, "Your Majesty, you said it yourself, I didn't say anything..."

Just then, Qin Yuan, who was being supported by the crowd, suddenly raised his head and shouted at Qin Xiao, "Qin Xiao, you tyrant! Don't you have enough beauties in your harem? How dare you come to my Jinyang Prefecture and try to steal my woman!"

As they were talking, a casual glance revealed Mu Yunshan, Wang Gang, and others behind Qin Xiao.

A wicked thought suddenly arose in his mind!

That scoundrel Qin Xiao stole my woman and then tried to outdo me with his words!

Before killing him, make sure he tastes the bitterness of heartbreak!

Thinking of this, he raised his voice and shouted into the Ziyan Pavilion: "Mu Yunshan, Wang Gang! And all of you from the Ziyan Pavilion, listen up! Immediately seize this tyrant for me! I can forgive and forget, not only sparing the lives of everyone in the Ziyan Pavilion, but also promising you high-ranking positions and generous rewards! Otherwise, you will be buried with this tyrant!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Xiao was the first to react.

He turned his head slightly, his gaze falling on Mu Yunshan behind him.

I'd like to see how this shrewd businessman will react at this critical juncture of life and death!

"hiss……"

Mu Yunshan gasped, feeling immense pressure!

At this moment, he could feel the gazes of Wang Gang and the others behind him.

They could feel the chilling killing intent of the Jin King's army ahead.

His whole body trembled uncontrollably, his face was ashen, and cold sweat trickled down his temples.

Finally, he swallowed hard, took a small step forward, and said to Qin Yuan, "Your Highness, Prince Jin, regicide is a crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations of your family! Please, please reconsider! Retreating now might, perhaps, still be in time..."

Qin Yuan could hardly believe his ears. His bloodshot eyes widened as he stared intently at Mu Yunshan: "Mu Yunshan! You mean you're determined to oppose me and die with this tyrant?!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Yunshan's legs trembled. He looked at Qin Xiao, his eyes filled with a last glimmer of hope, his voice trembling with tears, "Your Majesty, are you really not bringing any guards? Or are you joking with me? This is not the time for jokes..."

Qin Xiao shook his head and uttered two words: "No."

Seeing her father so hesitant and fearful, Mu Ziyan was extremely anxious, afraid that he might make a mistake and choose the wrong side.

Hesitantly, I wanted to speak up and offer some advice.

However, as soon as she opened her mouth, she was shocked to find that she could not make a sound!

Left with no other choice, they could only bow their heads and silently pray for Mu Yunshan and the Mu family...

"this……"

Mu Yunshan hesitated, glancing at Qin Yuan and then at Qin Xiao.

Finally, a surge of do-or-die courage welled up in my heart!

He stomped his foot and shouted hoarsely at Qin Yuan, "So what if I die! Qin Yuan! You traitorous scoundrel! If you want to murder the emperor and usurp the throne, you'll have to step over my dead body first! Kill me!"

Upon hearing this!

The entire audience was stunned!

A look of satisfaction flashed in Qin Xiao's eyes.

Mu Ziyan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Qin Yuan, on the other hand, was so angry that he almost vomited blood again!

He pointed a trembling finger at Mu Yunshan: "Mu Yunshan! I was originally planning to grant you the title of Imperial Father-in-Law after I ascended the throne, for the sake of your daughter! You're so ungrateful! Fine! Very well! Then you'll be buried with this tyrant!"

Having said that, he mustered all his strength and roared at the surrounding army and martial artists, "Attack! Kill!"

As soon as he finished speaking...

The military formations and martial arts teams hesitated and did not act immediately.

Seeing this, Mr. Zhao knew he couldn't delay any longer and had to ignite the fire immediately!

He suddenly stepped forward and shouted, "Fellow soldiers! Fellow heroes! Listen to me!"

"This tyrannical ruler before us has been acting perversely and immorally since ascending the throne, indulging in debauchery and favoring treacherous officials. The people have suffered for far too long!"

"Today is a golden opportunity presented by Heaven! To execute this tyrannical ruler is to act on behalf of Heaven!"

"His Highness Prince Jin possesses great talent and strategic vision; he is truly a wise ruler!"

"If we succeed, you will all be meritorious contributors to the creation of a new world!"

"Wealth, honor, and high rank await you today!"

The merit of following the dragon!

He was granted titles and honors!

These words instantly triggered a lot of people's emotions.

Some soldiers' eyes began to gleam with fanaticism.

Those martial arts masters who were recruited with high salaries also revealed their greed and ruthlessness!

"kill!"

I don't know who shouted it first.

In an instant, several martial artists and a group of elite armored soldiers at the forefront drew their swords and unleashed their true energy.

They transformed into fierce figures and pounced on Qin Xiao, Mu Ziyan, and Mu Yunshan, who were isolated at the door!

Mu Yunshan's expression changed drastically, and he closed his eyes in fright!

However, at this critical moment...

These martial artists and soldiers, who were still several feet away from Qin Xiao, all froze in place, their eyes dim.

They looked as if they had turned into wooden sculptures!

"What are you waiting for? Kill them all!"

Seeing that the attack had inexplicably stopped, Qin Yuan assumed that they were hesitating and roared angrily.

Mr. Zhao's heart was pounding, and he quickly spoke, trying to encourage everyone: "Don't be afraid, everyone, kill them..."

Before the words were finished...

Qin Xiao suddenly raised his right hand and gently grabbed at Mr. Zhao, who was dozens of steps away.

The next moment, under the astonished gazes of everyone, Mr. Zhao's voice came to an abrupt end!

Then, the person was lifted into the air at such a speed that only a blur remained.

In the blink of an eye, he was grabbed by the throat and held in Qin Xiao's hand, just like a little chick!

Mr. Zhao's eyes bulged out, and his face was filled with astonishment.

quiet!

Deathly silence!

The sun rose higher, and the sunlight gradually brought warmth.

The sunlight shone on Qin Yuan's soldiers, but it could not dispel the chill in their hearts.

What exactly is going on?

Could it be that this tyrannical ruler possesses sorcery?!

At this moment, Qin Xiao, carrying Mr. Zhao with one hand, looked at Qin Yuan, who was sitting in the sedan chair, completely dumbfounded, and said coldly, "Your dog is too noisy!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he casually flicked his wrist and then snapped his fingers!

Mr. Zhao was sent flying into the air and blasted into a cloud of blood mist in mid-air!
