Hearing Guo Peng's order, Qiao Rui was surprised and hurriedly thanked Guo Peng, and followed Xu Chu to the direction of his home.

Feng Guo, who was beside him, was even more happy when he saw it, and at the same time he felt a little regretful.

The two girls of Qiao are really beautiful, beautiful and talented. If Yuan Shu hadn't suddenly become emperor, everyone was worried, there would probably be many people who came to propose marriage.

But at this point, these two women are destined to be unable to belong to themselves, but to the real master of this land, the most powerful person.

Powerful, powerful, hard to shake, and powerful, and as long as he appears by his side, he doesn't even dare to speak loudly.

A real strong man.

Feng Guo couldn't help but sigh.

The defense in Shouchun City had completely collapsed, and the army from all sides had formed an encirclement, controlling the external traffic of the imperial city. The defeated soldiers ran towards the imperial city in large numbers. They were lucky and rushed in before the imperial city closed the gate. The unlucky ones were blocked outside.

"Let us in!"

"Open the door! Help!"

"Hurry up and open the door!"

The defeated soldiers who lost hope were chased by Guo's soldiers and were scattered. They wanted to open the door but couldn't get it. They were almost crazy. At this moment, the fighting slogans of the Guo's soldiers came from not far away. The defeated soldiers became even more frightened and knocked on the city gate desperately. The soldiers on the city gate were also panicked and hurriedly asked the officer what to do.

This kind of inquiry soon gathered in the ears of Lei Bo, the guardian of the imperial city. Lei Bo was commanding the army to transport the materials to defend the city. When he heard that someone was causing trouble outside the city, he immediately ordered arrows to kill the defeated soldiers outside the city, drove them all away, and was not allowed to stay under the city.

So the soldiers on the city bent their bows and arrows and shot their comrades to death. Seeing that the arrows on the city were like rain, the defeated soldiers at the city were frightened to the point of being ashamed, and they rolled and crawled away from the city. While cursing that the people in the city would not die well, the people ordered to pierce arrows.

"General, Guo Zhe army has surrounded it, and there are battle numbers on all sides. We have been blocked."

The messenger eagerly reported to Lei Bo what he knew.

Lei Bo frowned.

"Did you find out who opened the city gate?"

"It's Qiao Rui, Qiao Rui has rebelled. I heard that the army that took the lead in opening the city gate was Qiao Rui's army."

"Where is Ji Ling? Where is Yang Hong? Where is the crown prince?"

"Some people say that General Ji is dead, but the other subordinates really don't know."

He pushed the messenger away and asked him to continue inquiring about the news, then looked at the large torch that lit up not far away from the opposite side in panic.

How many people are there?

Shouchun City is over, and this imperial city has only more than two thousand troops to guard it. How can it be defended?

Lei Bo is desperate.

Before, Yuan Shu tried to evacuate the imperial city, but when he approached the city gate, he was reported that the imperial city had been surrounded by all sides, and the possibility of breaking out was too low, which was basically impossible.

"Did Guo Zifeng force me to die?"

Yuan Shu howled angrily, then coughed violently, and almost couldn't breathe. Everyone was so scared that they were panicked. Finally, they gave Yuan Shu a breath. Yuan Shu took a few breaths and ordered to return to the palace with a depressed expression.

There was nothing to do, really nothing to do, so Yuan Shu had to retreat to the palace.

In the palace, a group of women and children were crying.

Outside the palace, a group of guards were discussing their respective retreats in panic.

Just at this moment, Han Yin brought three officials to protect the guards. At the entrance of the palace, he heard a guard in the palace saying "I might as well run for my life." Han Yin was furious and rebuked the guard righteously, then drew his sword to stab him, stabilizing the situation.

Although the situation is in crisis, the power of the high-ranking officials of the court is not something that these big-headed soldiers can shake for a while. The big-headed soldiers were shocked and knelt down and apologized, not daring to mention escaping again.

So Han Yin brought people into the palace and asked to see Yuan Shu. Seeing the doomsday scene where women and children cry in the palace, Han Yin couldn't help but frown.

"Han Qing! You are here!"

Yuan Shu suddenly heard that Han Yin was asking for a meeting, and was surprised and happy, and still couldn't believe it. As a result, he saw that Han Yin was really coming, he believed it. He looked at Han Yin with joy and sorrow, and tears flowed out.

"Your Majesty, I am late to protect you. Please forgive me!"

Han Yin knelt in front of Yuan Shu and apologized to him. Yuan Shu immediately helped Han Yin up and looked at Han Yin with a touching look: "True love is seen in times of adversity, but now I know that Han Qing's love for me is true!"

"His Majesty……"

Han Yin pursed his lips and forced himself to cry.

Yuan Shu felt ashamed of his once suspicion of Han Yin, and then asked Han Yin how many people he brought to protect him.

"I am incompetent, and I only bring three loyal ministers, and four of them together. I am willing to protect Your Majesty with my lives."

After hearing what Han Yin said, the fire of hope that had just risen in Yuan Shu's heart was instantly extinguished by a urination and disappeared.

"Four loyal ministers... I am the emperor of Chen. Are there only four loyal ministers who are willing to die for me?! What sin did I commit? I want God to treat me like this!!!"

Yuan Shu howled loudly, and then fell straight to the ground, scaring the people around him to make another rush. After finally helping Yuan Shu up and sent him back to the soft seat. Yuan Shu took a few breaths and held Han Yin's hand.

"Han Qing, where did I do not do well? Is the reward not enough? Or is the official position not high? Why... Why are only four of you willing to die for me, but no one else wants it?"

Yuan Shu looked at Han Yin with heartache and puzzled.

How could Han Yin answer Yuan Shu? Do you mean that you did everything wrong besides giving many rewards to high officials?

In fact, Han Yin also knew that he had done many mistakes, but this was not the fundamental reason why the Chen Empire was destroyed half a year ago.

The fundamental reason is that the Han Dynasty was not over, and there was still a trace of vitality. Yuan Shu was too anxious and could not wait until the Han Dynasty was about to perish, and then he caused a lot of people to attack.

Of course, the biggest reason is that Guo Peng is too cunning bastard.

He was deeply grateful to the Yuan family. In his early years, he had to start a family with the help of Yuan. As a result, he turned against him and took away the five northern states and went south to attack Yuan Shu. His sect was invincible and he used up all his means.

Han Yin only regretted that he had not seen through Guo Peng's hypocritical appearance and desire-filled heart as soon as possible. Now, it was too late to talk about these things.

Guo Peng had already reached the gate of the imperial city and was about to take away the glory of Yuan as a winner, and there would be nothing left on his side.

"Your Majesty, I... don't know."

Han Yin really couldn't bear to give Yuan Shu a bigger blow at the last moment.

I can only say that I don’t know what happened to this matter, and I don’t know why the Chen Empire has come to this point and how it perished.

Yuan Shu looked at everything in front of him sadly, looked at his wives and concubines, his children, Han Yin, three loyal ministers, and loyal eunuchs.

"Is Yuan Gaolu really wrong? Shouldn't Yuan Gaolu really be called emperor?"

Yuan Shu closed his eyes and cried non-stop.

The nobles hugged each other in pain, Feng shed tears silently, and the rest of them cried together, not knowing whether they were crying for themselves, for Yuan Shu, or for Chen State.
