There were only two of them left in the huge palace. Emperor Yan looked at Zhu Jiu expressionlessly and said with a smile: "Why, General Zhu feels that your identity has changed now, and I don't deserve to buy you a drink."

liquor?"

He knew what was in the wine better than she did, but he still asked her to drink it.

Zhu Jiu felt a sense of grievance in his heart and looked deeply at Emperor Yan: "Your Majesty, when I went to the battlefield to fight, the ministers in the court found out that my daughter was dead and criticized me. Those people also advised you to give me a cup of poison.

Wine, give me some dignity."

"It was you who overcame all objections and gave me the position of general. At that time, you were so high-spirited that you took me to the city wall, pointed at the people in the imperial city of Yan Kingdom, and smiled at me and said, "My dear, these are my

The people, they are also yours. With you helping me, the Yan Kingdom will surely endure for a long time!"

Listening to her talk about the past, Emperor Yan seemed to have remembered those things, but his eyelids never moved.

In fact, he is not old, but he has been addicted to alchemy for a long time, and his body has become haggard, and he has long lost the high-spirited appearance he had when he was young.

Looking at Zhu Jiu now, he just said lightly: "Everything has changed, Zhu Jiu. You have to drink this glass of wine, or you have to drink it if you don't want to!"

"If I drink, will the Emperor let me go?"

Zhu Jiu closed his eyes, exhaled a breath, suppressed the complicated thoughts in his heart, and looked away from Emperor Yan. Without waiting for his answer, he raised his neck and drank the glass of wine in one gulp.

Emperor Yan's hand under his sleeve suddenly clenched, and a flash of horror flashed in his eyes.

He regretted it, the moment Zhu Jiu drank it, he regretted it!

What about the death of the late emperor? Are those who assassinated him related to Zhu Jiu?

Zhu Jiu just had the blood of Gao Xinguo. How could he be so stupid as to blame Zhu Jiu for this matter?

Just when Emperor Yan wanted to say something, a faint voice came into his head. Suddenly, his face returned to coldness, and his eyes became calm, as if the idea that appeared in his mind just for a moment was not his at all.

The subconscious is just a sudden random thought.

Emperor Yan did not take this matter to heart. Instead, he watched Zhu Jiu drink the poisonous wine, sneered, and ordered outside: "For the sake of General Zhu's loyalty to our country of Yan, I will leave you alone."

Decent, I wonder if General Zhu is satisfied with this coffin?"

The people who came in carried a rosewood coffin inlaid with gold, which was extremely expensive. Even members of the royal family might not be able to have such funeral specifications.

Zhu Jiu wiped the corner of his mouth and glanced at the coffin following his voice. He didn't know what he thought of, and raised his lips sarcastically: "Your Majesty is very thoughtful. Now that I have drank this glass of wine from you, the kindness between us will be over."

From now on, Zhu Jiu and the Zhu family will never owe the Yan royal family a penny!"

Bang!

She threw the wine glass and turned to leave.

Emperor Yan was extremely angry but endured it. He patted the dragon chair coldly and hummed loudly: "Why don't you send the coffin to the Zhu family quickly? Ask Zhu Tai'an to prepare Zhu Jiu's funeral!"

The eldest princess, Zhang Yuzhi, who had been expelled earlier, finally broke through the shackles and rushed to the Tai Chi Hall. She happened to see Zhu Jiu smash the wine glass, and when the poisonous wine inside was contaminated on the ground, there was a scene of terrible white smoke.

Her face changed greatly, and she quickly stepped forward to stop Zhu Jiu who was about to leave, and dragged her to Emperor Yan without any explanation: "Brother Emperor! What are you doing? The Xuanyuan army has broken through the imperial city and is now heading towards Taiji Hall. You

Please hand over the antidote to General Zhu to detoxify him!"

"The only way to fight Xuanyuan is to let General Zhu take action..."

From the first word she spoke, Emperor Yan's face became very ugly.

No one expected that Xuanyuan's army would suddenly launch an attack tonight.

Zhu Jiu was also a little surprised and thought to himself: She had gotten the news a long time ago. Xuanyuan Che also said that the siege was false news, so why did it become true now?

Fortunately, she had ordered her lieutenants to act out countless times before. Faced with this situation, the soldiers in the military camp should have protected the people and evacuated safely.

Before coming to the celebration banquet, she had already left a message to her confidants. If she did not return to the military camp safely this time, there would be another Xuanyuan army on the way.

If they attack the city, they are asked to protect the people, put human life first, and abandon the city and flee.

Therefore, she knew that even if she was not here tonight, there would be no casualties.

Originally, she just didn't want to deceive Emperor Yan, and at the same time, she also wanted to tell the world her true identity.

If Emperor Yan had revealed the matter and not interfered with her decision, she would have stayed and fought for Emperor Yan until the last moment.

But Emperor Yan was wrong, he made the wrong choice. In this situation, what he wanted was her life. He was afraid that she would betray Yan State, so he wanted to kill the donkey first.

Under the long eyelashes, Zhu Jiu's pair of thin and delicate phoenix eyes were raised again, already looking indifferent.

She gently supported the eldest princess who knelt down to beg for the antidote, "No need, Your Royal Highness, I have understood the friendship between the Yan State and the Xuanyuan Army. Now the general trend of the Xuanyuan Army is overwhelming, and the Yan State cannot come back to life."

The eldest princess fell to the ground in shock.

She has always been unwilling to admit that Yan Guo's strength has been exhausted.

Looking up again, she looked at the Emperor Yan who was sitting slumped on the dragon throne in front of her and was shocked by her words. The eldest princess finally realized that the Emperor Yan in front of her was no longer the virtuous and benevolent king he was before!

He has long been hollowed out by the art of alchemy. He is cruel and ruthless, hot and cold, and no one knows what he is thinking in his heart.

The heavy burden that had been piled on the eldest princess for a long time, and the royal blood that had become a shackle, finally made her explode. A strong unwillingness and resentment seemed to flow through her body. She actually pulled out the sword from Zhu Jiu's waist, and suddenly

Rushing towards Emperor Yan——

"Brother Imperial, the best outcome for you and me is to die for our country!"

Emperor Yan trembled all over, raised his head slightly, and subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but his body only shook for a moment, and he sat firmly on the throne, staring closely at his sister who was approaching him.

Yes, he is the king of a subjugated country. The imperial city has been conquered, and his sister has finally become the princess of a subjugated country.

There will no longer be a place for them in the world.

He no longer has to worry about Zhu Jiu's rebellion, and he no longer has to worry about the general situation of the Yan Kingdom. He can even finally stop taking pills every day to relieve his worries.

It's good to die, you will be liberated when you die.

At the end, Emperor Yan heard the sound of the tip of the knife penetrating into flesh. Vaguely, he seemed to see a silhouette of a young man in silver armor, holding a spear and breaking through the air. He rushed into the Tai Chi Hall from a distance and shouted: "Nine-nine!

"

Is that... Aiqing's male favorite?

Emperor Yan gradually came to his senses, curled his lips, and his last expression rested on the eldest princess who died on the throne with him.

"Imperial sister, for my brother... I shouldn't have slaughtered the entire Xuanyuan family. This is... my brother's... retribution!"

It's a pity that I have troubled you.

But the eldest princess could no longer hear her. There were still warm tears on her face, and her body had gradually become cold.

Over there, when Xuanyuan Che hurried to the main hall, he saw Zhu Jiu drinking the glass of poisonous wine. He couldn't help but look flustered. He hurriedly took out the detoxification pill prepared in his arms: "Jiujiu, hurry up, hurry up.

Got it!"
