The Eldest Daughter of a Rural Family-Chapter 1163 - 266: Rebellion_3

Xiao Yong led his troops over when Xiao Guangjing’s men had already launched a counterattack; caught between the two forces, victory soon followed.

"Father! Are you alright?" Xiao Yong stepped forward to greet him.

Xiao Guangjing smiled and helped him up, "Thankfully you arrived, Yongyong. Your father is unharmed!"

"That’s good!" Xiao Yong nodded, "Brother-in-law Qin has already taken the Palace and obtained the Grand Empress Dowager’s decree of succession; please, Father, go and receive the decree!"

When Xiao Guangjing saw him, he knew Mo Heng had succeeded. Upon hearing the news, his face lit up with joy, "Let’s enter the Palace!" He immediately followed with Xiao Yong and their troops into the Palace.

Seeing him arrive, Mo Heng directly led people forward to greet him, "This humble official pays homage to the New Emperor. My Emperor, long live, long live, long live forever!"

Some deputy generals behind him were still disatisfied; it was the General who commanded them to attack the Palace, and yet this imperial throne was given to Prince Yong’an. Would he treat the General and General Pei well? Would he be a good Emperor? Would he earn the loyalty of these soldiers?

Li Shun and Zhou Jian, among others, also harbored resentments. However, they knew Mo Heng would not claim to be Emperor, and their General was not a man after fame or profit but extremely loyal. Even if General Mo led a rebellion, he would still return the throne and the realm to the Xiao family.

Seeing Mo Heng kneel to pay his respects, they too knelt down, "We pay homage to the New Emperor! My Emperor, long live, long live, long live forever!"

Without the death of the old Emperor this time, Xiao Guangjing ascended the throne easily and joyfully.

The civil and military officials also faced another purge, so they knelt to the New Emperor wisely, expressing their loyalty.

Shen Bi also thought Mo Heng and Pei Qin were going to rebel and claim the throne. Seeing that Xiao Guangjing was the one ascending, he was relieved. Thankfully! Otherwise, soldiers around the country would rise up in rebellion and Great Chu would truly plunge into chaos! The common people would suffer! At that time, Pei Qin, the legendary deity general, would truly become a criminal. Mo Heng, with his unjust position, would not sit securely on the throne. Prince Yong’an? Thankfully! frёeωebɳovel.com

The ministers were still in shock; the palace coups had been too frequent!

Having settled the security measures and knowing that West Mountain Camp was manned mostly by his men, with Zhao Xiaochen in control, major chaos would be unlikely. Mo Heng then left the pile of matters in the palace to Xiao Guangjing and hurried home.

When Pei Qin received the news and saw Mo Heng again, everything had already settled down.

Jiujiu and Xixi rushed over, calling, "Daddy! Daddy!"

Mo Heng watched as Pei Qin patted the two little Radishes on their heads, then strode over without a word and held her tightly. Great Chu was given to Xiao Yong, and he would take her to seek the medicine!

Pei Qin felt his body trembling slightly. Ignoring others in the room, she wrapped her arms around him, "I’m fine!" If the heavens allowed her to travel through time, they wouldn’t let her die young!

Pei Wendong, Pei Yuan, and Pei Qian silently left the room, leaving the couple alone.

Chang Yonglin held Xixi, asking her, "Isn’t Daddy amazing?"

"Daddy is amazing too!" Xixi replied in her baby voice.

Chang Yonglin couldn’t help but laugh, "Right! But your mother is the most amazing!"

Xixi nodded vigorously, "Yes! Mom is like a feast sent by the Nine Heavens’ Lady!"

"Your mother is indeed a feast..." Chang Yonglin ruffled her little head.

Jiujiu watched with a smile, "Mom is the Nine Heavens’ Lady descending to earth!" Thus, Mom wouldn’t die! She wouldn’t let Mom go back to the heavens! She and her sister couldn’t become children without a mother!

Pei Yuan was still worried, relentlessly worried, especially seeing the strange little boy that Fang Fu brought back, "Little uncle..."

Fang Fu smiled faintly, "Qinqin is fine, everything’s fortunate! Now that Prince Yong’an is proclaimed Emperor and Xiao Yong named as Crown Prince, the world is settled, and we’ll have peaceful days ahead!"

However, Mo Heng was not planning to lead a peaceful life; he released Xiao Guangzhao.
