But what came faster than Qin Rushuang's massacre of the city was Emperor Qi's imperial edict.
Emperor Qi sent a decree asking Qin Rushuang to expel the people from the other two cities, but not to do cruel things such as massacre.
After Qin Rushuang received the imperial edict, he placed it casually on the table.
Nie Lei on the side asked tentatively: "General, should we withdraw our troops and return to the camp?"
Qin Rushuang said calmly: "Why should we withdraw our troops and return to the camp?"
"But you have accepted the imperial edict..."
Qin Rushuang looked at Nie Lei calmly, "Haven't you ever heard a sentence? Generals will not accept military orders abroad."
Nie Lei didn't know what to say. He could only say that he underestimated Qin Rushuang's determination to avenge Qian Ertong.
In fact, he also had resentment towards these Dayan people.
For many years, Dayan has been tyrannizing under their noses, and the order they receive is always, be patient! Be patient!
Even if Dayan does something like this, they have to hold their noses and endure it!
Others could bear it, but Nie Lei couldn't bear it when he had a bad temper and was saved by Qian Ertong!
In a sense, Qin Rushuang decided to do this, and Nie Lei actually agreed in his heart.
Therefore, he was happy to pretend not to know and continued to accompany Qin Rushuang outside the city.
In the palace.
Emperor Qi got the news that Qin Rushuang did not retreat after receiving the imperial edict. He still led his men outside the city to confront the Yan people.
Emperor Qi was a little angry, and then hesitant.
When he received the news, Xie Yang happened to be there. He said to Xie Yang, "Yang'er, did my father do something wrong in this matter? Some courtiers came to the table today and said that Dayan was too aggressive. We will send people
They returned it intact, but they did such a betrayal, which is a provocation to our Daqi!"
"You said...the border guards are unwilling to retreat. Are they dissatisfied with this imperial edict in their hearts?"
Seeing Emperor Qi's mind wavering, Xie Yang quickly said: "My father's words are wrong. They are just ordinary people. How can they consider the problem from the position and perspective of my father?"
"They only saw the temporary happiness, but they didn't see my reputation as Daqi, and ignored my father's reputation!"
"My father governed the country with benevolence and love. A hundred years later, he will be praised by future generations! How could he be stained like this?!"
After listening to this, Emperor Qi realized that his desire to be remembered forever overcame his guilt towards the border guards.
So he pondered for a long time and said: "Then issue another imperial edict to order them to retreat! Just drive the Dayan people out!"
Emperor Qi's imperial edict came very quickly, and not long after, Qin Rushuang received the second imperial edict.
Qin Rushuang still didn't care.
In the past two days, she and her people have almost completely inspected the gunpowder and mechanisms outside the city.
Indeed, the layout of the institutions in the previous city is exactly the same.
After the outside of the city is demolished, you only need to lead the troops to attack and avoid the organs inside the city.
In the capital, Xie Yang was anxiously waiting for news from the border.
Xie Yang was overjoyed to hear that Qin Rushuang had issued two imperial edicts in succession, but still went his own way and had no intention of withdrawing his troops!
He was also afraid that Qin Rushuang would retreat obediently after receiving the imperial edict, making it impossible for his drama to continue.
I didn’t expect Qin Rushuang to be so stubborn!
Xie Yang almost burst into laughter. What should I say? Should I say that Qin Rushuang deserves to be Xie Xun's woman?
Even the appearance of this one muscle is exactly the same!
Emperor Qi in the palace was extremely angry by Qin Rushuang's actions.
Nowadays, demons are dancing in the court, and some people, like Emperor Qi, have even suggested that if King Huai and Princess disobey the imperial edict, are they suspected of leading troops to rebel?
After all, the border guards are now in the hands of this couple!
Not many people cared about this ridiculous statement, but Emperor Qi, who was already seriously ill, actually believed it.
Therefore, after going to court on the second day, he sent a military general to go to the border to take over Qin Rushuang's military power.
At first, he planned to return the military power to Xie Xun, but later he felt that he was worried about whether the military power was in the hands of either of the couple.
Therefore, I don’t know where to find an unknown general and entrust him with important tasks.
However, Xie Yang had not been happy for a few days when he was disturbed by Emperor Qi's actions.
He was happy to see Qin Rushuang and Xie Xun holding back, and he was also happy to see Emperor Qi becoming dissatisfied with the couple.
But his original plan was to seize the military power and hold it in his own hands!
Unexpectedly, Emperor Qi did not follow the routine!
Xie Yang hurried to his grandfather Xiaoshan's house
"Grandpa, do you think my father is confused? How can you give something as important as military power to an outsider?!"
Xiao Shan looked at his grandson's impatience and said nothing. After he vented his anger, he took a sip of the tea in his hand and said, "It's normal. Since he doesn't want to believe the second prince, he naturally doesn't want to believe you either."
"Turning back the military power of the Second Prince and Qin Rushuang is to prevent them from rebelling. But wouldn't it be the same if I gave the military power to you?"
"How can it be the same?!" Xie Yang blurted out.
Xiao Shan glanced at him and said lightly, "Why is it different? Xie Xun is His Majesty's son, and you are also His Majesty's son. Do you dare to say that you have not thought about the position of the Nine-Five Supreme Being?"
Hearing this, Xie Yang immediately shut up.
"Then we shouldn't give all our troops to outsiders! Fortunately, I've been by his side day and night these days, but I still can't warm his heart!"
Xiao Shan sneered.
"The heart of an emperor... How can it be so easy to keep warm? Placing your hopes on others is always the most cowardly idea."
Xiao Shan's words seemed to be filled with emotion, but also seemed to be reminding Xie Yang something.
Xie Yang's mind turned a few times, and he seemed to have taken in Xiao Shan's words.
"Grandpa is right, there is no one in this world that you can rely on forever? Some things... are most reliable when you have to hold them in your own hands!"
Qin Rushuang at the border did not know that Emperor Qi was preparing to send someone to take over his military power.
The mechanisms and gunpowder of both cities have been dug out.
The siege is imminent!
This is not an evenly matched war, it is more like a unilateral massacre by Qin Rushuang!
And the Dayan woman in the city is already a turtle in the urn!
However, just when Qin Rushuang entered the city and captured all the women from Dayan and imprisoned them together, preparing to be executed, Shen Xiaoyang suddenly came.
Qin Rushuang saw that he had a bad look on his face and thought that Shen Xiaoyang didn't like to see her looking so cruel, so she said to Shen Xiaoyang: "Brother, if you can't bear to see it... you can come back later."
However, Shen Xiaoyang walked to Qin Rushuang in three steps and two steps at a time.
"Someone is coming from the palace."
Qin Rushuang looked impatient, "Are you asking me to lead the troops back to the camp again? I told you that you will not accept military orders abroad!"
"No. This time the emperor sent someone to take over the military power in your hands."
Qin Rushuang raised her head suddenly, "What did you say?!"
Just as he was leaving, Shen Xiaoyang saw a general wearing armor walking behind him.
He said to Qin Rushuang: "Princess Huai, you are no longer the leader of the border army. Please give me the Tiger Talisman!"
Qin Rushuang retorted angrily: "Father, what do you mean? Do you want to kill the donkey?!"
She said this rudely, and she said it in front of the new general.
The man frowned: "Don't utter wild words! Your Majesty's thoughts are not for us to speculate on! Since Princess Huai is no longer the leader of the border guard army, please return to the prince. What will happen next?" I'll take over!"
Qin Rushuang wanted to say something else, but was held back by Shen Xiaoyang.
However, at this moment, someone among the group of captured Dayan women suddenly laughed loudly.
"The Daqi people are really cowards! Cowards! They have captured us, but they don't dare to kill us! It's ridiculous that Qin Rushuang spent so much effort to capture us, but we are just the emperor's dogs! He asked you to let us go, how dare you Don’t let go?!”
"Hahaha! I thought how much you wanted to avenge your subordinate, but it seems that it was just talk! It's a pity that he suffered so much when he was captured by us. He thought his master could help him seek justice, but he didn't Even if you want to be the master, you are a coward!"
"It's really not worth it for me to do it for him. It's not worth risking my life to spread the news to save you. It's even more worthless to have my legs ruined!"
The woman's words completely aroused Qin Rushuang's anger!
She drew the knife angrily, raised the knife with her hand, and cut off the woman's head with one strike!
Blood splashed on the general's face, and also on Qin Rushuang's face.
Her eyes were red, like a Shura, extremely angry!
She hates the people of Dayan who go back on their word, and even more hates the cowardly and useless Emperor Qi!
