If I send you to join the army and marry a woman, will you conquer the Empress?

These words were powerful and resounding, each one piercing to the heart!

The people and soldiers in the square were thrilled and erupted in thunderous cheers once again.

"The princess is right! General Qin is a hero!"

"Hero! Hero!"

"..."

In contrast, Xia Yuanhao and Empress Lü were speechless after hearing her words, their faces turning pale and then red.

They wanted to refute it, but found that they couldn't find any reason to refute it at all.

Because everything Fuyao said was true.

Enraged, Xia Yuanhao began to speak recklessly.

"You, Xia Fuyao! You talk such sweet words! I think you've been bewitched by this wild man!"

Xia Yuanhao pointed at Qin Feng and Fuyao, a malicious smile spreading across his face: "You two have been hooking up for a long time, haven't you? No wonder he's been working so hard! So you want to become the prince consort so you can usurp the Xia family's throne!"

Empress Lü also screamed, "Shameless hussy! You actually side with outsiders against your own family! You are a disgrace to the Xia family!"

They attempted to use this most despicable means to smear Qin Feng and Fuyao, and to incite the final conflict between the royal family and Qin Feng.

Princess Fuyao was so angry by their filthy words that she trembled all over and couldn't say a word.

Qin Feng's eyes instantly turned cold.

boom!

He slightly raised the spear in his hand, and a chilling killing intent locked onto Xia Yuanhao.

He can tolerate being insulted, but he absolutely cannot tolerate being insulted by his woman.

Just as Qin Feng was about to make his move and end this good-for-nothing's life.

An old, weary voice suddenly rang out.

"Enough! All of you, shut up!"

Everyone was startled and looked in the direction of the sound.

The Xia Emperor, who had been slumped on the dragon throne as if he had lost his soul, suddenly stood up.

His eyes were bloodshot as he stared intently at his wife and son, his gaze as if he wanted to devour them alive.

"I'm not dead yet! And you're all here, barking like mad dogs! What kind of behavior is this!"

The Xia Emperor's roar, like a thunderclap, exploded across the square.

Everyone was startled by the sudden roar.

Empress Lü and Xia Yuanhao were so frightened that they trembled and instinctively shut their mouths.

They looked at Emperor Xia in horror.

In their memory, although Emperor Xia was domineering, he had always been very fond of them, especially of Crown Prince Xia Yuanhao, and rarely spoke to them in such a stern tone.

The Xia Emperor is acting very strangely today.

Ignoring the astonished gazes of the crowd, Emperor Xia stared intently at Empress Lü and Xia Yuanhao, his eyes filled with disappointment and disgust.

He felt nauseous listening to their shameless shouts and their slander against Fuyao and Qin Feng.

idiot!

Two complete idiots!

Even at this point, they still couldn't see the situation clearly and were still using that ridiculous royal majesty to provoke a god of war who commanded an army of 300,000 and could crush them into dust at any time!

Emperor Xia then looked to the other side.

Look at Fuyao, the daughter who bravely stood up and argued with reason, even at the cost of breaking with herself, to protect Qin Feng.

Then look at Qin Feng, who clearly had everything under control, but because of Fuyao's protection, he forcibly suppressed his killing intent and did not immediately take action.

One is loyal and righteous, the other is brave and resourceful.

One risked his life, the other turned the tide.

Comparing the two, a judgment is made.

A tremendous sense of sorrow and regret instantly overwhelmed the Xia Emperor's heart.

Emperor Xia suddenly felt that his entire life had been a huge joke.

He considered himself a great ruler, scheming and fighting his whole life.

In his quest for the throne, he colluded with the northern barbarians and caused the death of his own brother.

In order to consolidate his imperial power, he listened to slander and forced the loyal Marquis Qin Zhan, who had once been as close as a brother to him and had made great contributions to the Great Xia Dynasty, to his death.

He believed that everything he did was for the sake of the Great Xia dynasty and the Xia family's rule.

But in the end, what did he get?

His most trusted wife was a vicious woman who only knew how to be jealous and had a narrow mind.

His most valued son was a good-for-nothing who colluded with foreign enemies, betrayed his country for personal gain, and was licentious and immoral.

The son of the loyal minister to whom he owed the most and whom he felt most sorry stood up when he was in his most desperate moment and saved him and the entire Great Xia Dynasty with his own strength.

How ironic!

How ridiculous!

"Hehe...hehehe..."

Emperor Xia suddenly laughed, his laughter filled with self-mockery and sorrow.

He staggered down the steps and walked to the center of the square.

He looked around, at the terrified civil officials, the menacing soldiers, and the survivors.

Finally, his gaze fell on Qin Feng.

"Thump!"

To everyone's disbelief, the supreme monarch of the Great Xia Dynasty, Emperor Xia Yuan, suddenly collapsed to his knees and knelt down heavily.

This kneeling was earth-shattering!

"His Majesty!"

"Father!"

Exclamations erupted from all sides.

The civil officials were terrified and immediately knelt down in large numbers.

They tried to help Emperor Xia, but were forced back by his angry shout.

"Don't move!"

Emperor Xia knelt in the cold, sticky pool of blood, his back straight.

He didn't look at anyone, but instead faced the north of the imperial city, towards the direction of the Marquis of Loyalty's residence, and kowtowed three times heavily.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Each kowtow was performed with tremendous force, leaving a bloodstain on the bluestone slab in no time.

After kowtowing, Emperor Xia slowly raised his head and looked at Qin Feng. His voice was hoarse, but exceptionally clear.

"Qin Feng, I... was wrong."
