Chapter 986: Prince Ping's Rebellion

It turned out that soon after Qiao Ran and Mo Beihan emptied the emperor's private treasury and the national treasury and set off, the news that the national treasury and the emperor's private treasury had been stolen caused panic in the entire capital.

The emperor was furious. After immediately ordering a city seal-off and a thorough investigation, he vomited blood and fainted on the ground.

As a result, when the imperial doctors checked, they found that the emperor was poisoned!

However, this poison is a chronic one. It is added to the food little by little and will not take effect immediately.

Under the impact of such a major event, the anger broke out prematurely.

After the emperor woke up, he ordered a thorough investigation. After nearly half of the eunuchs and palace maids around him were beaten and killed, someone finally couldn't bear the torture and gave out the mastermind behind the incident, Prince Ping.

The emperor, who had just woken up, was so angry that he vomited blood again and almost fainted again.

Prince Ping was his most beloved prince. Although he had suspected him of treason in the past, he still let him go time and time again out of mercy.

But he never expected that this rebellious son would dare to poison and murder him!

When his own life was truly threatened, the emperor finally gave up on Prince Ping and immediately ordered his arrest.

Unfortunately, the insider arranged by King Ping in the palace passed the news out, and King Ping, who was cunning and had three burrows, escaped from the city through a secret passage.

After escaping from danger, King Ping knew that he had no way out. In addition, his private treasury was robbed one after another, so he could not afford to support his troops.

As a result, he had to start the rebellion in a hurry. Less than half a month after his escape, he returned to the capital with his 80,000 private soldiers who were kept in several deep mountains and valleys, under the pretext of clearing the court of evil officials.

He joined forces with the internal supporters he had arranged for many years, and attacked the capital from both inside and outside, heading straight for the imperial palace, intending to force the emperor to abdicate and usurp the throne.

However, forcing the emperor to abdicate was not an easy task. Upon hearing the news, 50,000 troops from the camp outside the capital rushed to rescue the emperor. Together with the Imperial Guards, the Capital Guards, etc., they fought against Prince Ping's private soldiers and were evenly matched.

The cunning King Ping once again used the secret passage he had dug in other private houses to enter the palace, and used the emperor to control the princes, forcing the emperor to order the soldiers in the suburban camp to withdraw from the city.

In fact, Prince Ping wanted the emperor to directly write an edict to pass the throne to him. Unfortunately, the emperor was completely disappointed with this evil son who wanted to murder him, and even began to resent him. He also knew that Prince Ping's character was not suitable to be the emperor, so he refused to issue an edict to pass the throne to him even if he was beaten to death.

Moreover, the crown prince had not been deposed, so even if the emperor died it would not be Prince Ping's turn to succeed to the throne.

It is not possible to kill the emperor directly, because the retired emperor is still alive, and there are troops outside the city eyeing the city covetously. There is no news of the demise of the Dingbei Army from the northern border yet. With only 80,000 private soldiers, Prince Ping does not dare to risk the world's taboo by directly killing the emperor and seizing the throne.

There was no other way, King Ping could only place the retired emperor, the emperor, the crown prince, and all the princes and grandchildren under house arrest, and he went to court to supervise the country on the pretext that the emperor and the crown prince were seriously ill.

The court officials were dissatisfied, but they couldn't even see the emperor.

There were some stubborn old ministers who knelt down and begged to see the emperor, but several of them even threw themselves against the pillars and died, but they still failed to persuade King Ping to give in.

Prince Ping has always been a vengeful person. He started to eliminate dissidents before he ascended the throne. Soldiers went to the streets to arrest people every day, and the prisons in the government office and the Dali Temple were already full.

The capital city was in a state of chaos and everyone was in danger. Every household closed their doors and no shop on the street dared to open for business.

The Fairy Valley Supermarket was closed as soon as King Ping arrived in Beijing, and everyone took advantage of the chaos to return to the Devil Valley for refuge.

The next day, the Shenxian Valley Supermarket was smashed and looted by people from Prince Ping's Mansion. Everything including the door panels were smashed to pieces.

When Qiao Erhe heard the news from Mu Er, his heart was broken!

It was his niece's shop, but he, as the second uncle, failed to protect it well. It was a waste of his niece to make him the manager. He deserves to die!

At the same time, he hated King Ping so much that he wanted to rush into the palace and cut the hateful King Ping into pieces.

"Second brother, money is just a thing outside of one's body. It's good as long as the person is fine. This is not your fault. Ranran will not blame you."

In the living room of the Qiao family, all the Qiao family members sat together, and Old Mrs. Qiao comforted her second son who was sad and angry.
