Two days later, the commanders of the various army who received the order from King Jiangxia gathered in Jiangning. Tan Xiaozu came back overnight, two hours earlier than the others. He met Xu You in advance and knew the causes and consequences. Although he was also feeling the impermanence of life and death, he was a soldier after all, and he was decisive in his killing and would not let his emotions control his rationality. He quickly analyzed the pros and cons and fully agreed with Xu You's solution.

In fact, he had no choice but to agree!

When everyone arrived, King Jiangxia summoned them through the curtain, saying that it was stained with cold wind and did not dare to see the light. When he saw the wind, his figure could be seen vaguely leaning against the head of the bed through the curtain. Several maids served with medicine, and from time to time they heard a few violent coughs sticking to their lungs.

Yang Chun, the head of the guard, stood on the left side of the curtain, wearing leather armored military uniforms, with a knife around his waist, and still looked as majestic and cold as he saw. Yan Wan, the deputy general of the military officer, stood on the right side, but was summoned by King Jiangxia. He opened the curtain in front of everyone and walked in. In this short moment, many people in the house saw King Jiangxia's side face - pale, thin, shriveled, and seemed to be very sick.

"...Well, I'm not strong enough and can't say much... I'll just follow the constitution agreed last night, and you and the generals will tell you. They are all confidants who have followed me for many years. You should understand that the overall situation is the priority...Well, cough..."

Yan Wan's voice was a little crying and said, "Your Highness must be relieved. The doctor said that if you take a few more medicines to force the wind evil out, you will definitely be cured..."

"Idiot, I have something to see through when I am born, old, sick and die? Go and ask Tan Xiaozu to come in!"

When Yan Wan came out, her eyes were red, and the water marks in her eyes were spinning and not rolling down. She was a top-notch acting school. Tan Xiaozu admired her very much. She tidied her robe with her hands, her waist bent slightly, and her steps were suddenly heavy. Her expression remained unchanged, but she felt sad.

Old man, what a deep scheming!

Yan Wan lowered her head and said hatefully in her heart.

After hearing what King Jiangxia said, everyone in the room was shocked, and suspicion and worry began to spread. However, Jingzhou's military management was harsh and he was not named. No one dared to speak and talk. He could only communicate with each other with eyes, but he had to get any useful information.

"...Xiaozu, you know how to fight, but you are honest and have offended others but don't know it. In the long run, disaster will not be in front of the battlefield, but will come from the back of your neck... With me, you don't have to worry about it, and you can still protect you. If I am gone, what should you do? In the future, you should study more, cultivate your spirit, and be gentle and polite to others... Go, Yan Wan had offended you before, and I will apologize to you on his behalf. In the future, we will rely on your unity of national affairs and family affairs..."

Now everyone heard that King Jiangxia had the intention to arrange the funeral, and the generals suddenly changed their fear. You must know that this is not usual, but this is rebellion. While creating a creation, it has lost its backbone, or even the name of great righteousness. How can it continue?

Waiting for death or surrender?

An Xiuming is cruel and unruly. Will he spare them if he surrenders? Even if he spares for the time being, will he settle the score later?

For a moment, all kinds of thoughts came one after another, and they overwhelmed their concern for the king of Jiangxia. After so many years of being together, their relationship cannot be said to be deep, but no matter how deep the relationship is, it cannot compare to their own life and future.

This is not cruel, this is very realistic!

What made the generals even more strange when Tan Xiaozu came out was that he actually saw An Xiulin, the king of Linchuan who should have supervised the battle downstream.

"My sixth brother and I made an agreement to promote righteousness together, and advance east and west, and help each other. Jiangxia Linchuan was originally brothers, Jingzhou and Yangzhou were originally one. Now I am in a state of chaos and cannot control the situation in Jingzhou. Therefore, I asked my sixth brother to serve as the General of the Cavalry and the General of Jingzhou, and the General of the Military Affairs of the Five Prefectures of Jingzhou. You should treat it with the heart of serving me. Remember, remember..."

The cough of King Jiang Xia seemed to spit out all his internal organs, which made people startled, as if they would hold it in one breath in the next moment and would never wake up again.

If King Jiangxia really can't do it, then it's better to surrender to King Linchuan than to surrender to Jinling...

Just as Guo Mian looked down on An Xiulin, these arrogant generals did not look down on An Xiulin very much, but they still had good goods. Compared with An Xiuming, at least with An Xiulin, everyone's lives can be saved!

Thinking about this, the idea will be opened. An Xiulin is weak and must rely on the Jingzhou army to gain a firm foothold. In other words, if you surrender to the past, you will not only not be afraid that the power in your hands will be weakened, but will be appropriately strengthened.

This seems to be a good thing?

Anyway, no matter who leads the way, as long as it is the prince of the An family, Xinting has just won a great victory and the situation is great. It is better to follow the King of Linchuan to surrender than to surrender with his tail between his tail!

"You guys go out, I'm tired... I've told you what to do. I've told my sixth brother and Yan Wan. You follow the orders. If anyone dares to disobey... Tan Xiaozu!"

"I'm here!"

"I'm sick and can't move! Can you still cut your knife?"

Tan Xiaozu pulled out his waist knife, and the cold light shone on the room, crossed his chest, looked around and said, "The sword under the ritual is dedicated to cutting dogs who are merciless!"

Everyone's hearts were terrified. Xue Xuanmo looked at Tan Xiaozu and swept over, and cold sweat broke out from behind. He hurriedly knelt down and said, "Jesus the order!"

Dan Tai Douxing knelt down, and the others did not dare to hesitate anymore, and they all knelt on the ground, saying, "See the order!"

“Okay, OK, OK!

King Jiangxia said three good words in a loud voice, and his passionate voice seemed to be back to his youth, traversing the north and south, and then his voice gradually fell back and finally became unknown.

Taking Qingming disguise as the body of King Jiangxia and Zong Yu's ventriloquism as the voice of King Jiangxia, the cooperation between the two is perfect. With Yan Wan and Tan Xiaozu endorsing, no one suspects that the King Jiangxia on the bed is fake, so that the time of King Jiangxia's death can be perfectly delayed, relieved the suspicion of An Xiulin and others, and avoided too many troubles.

After leaving the bedroom and arrived at the main hall to discuss matters, Tan Xiaozu and Yan Wan jointly invited Master Xiulin to sit down. He refused, but in the end, Xue Xuanmo, Dan Tai Douxing and others all spoke out for requests, and then he reluctantly left his seat.

"... The third brother is auspicious and heavenly person. After a while, he will be cured. Everyone should not worry too much. As for calling me here, I will only serve as the governor of Jingzhou. All government affairs and military affairs will be discussed by Yan Shenjun and Tan Sima. You just need to fight with peace of mind. After you enter Jinling, the imperial sect will be restored, and the Tianwei will be renewed. You will be promoted to the title, and you will be granted a wife and a son. You will enjoy endless wealth and glory for generations..."

An Xiulin was approachable and could even be said to be very humble. He was completely different from the King of Jiangxia, who often beat and scolded the enemy. In just a short time, he recognized everyone in the room. Not only did he call them a name, but he even knew everyone's background, resume, and achievements. He could not help but feel close and grateful.

Although not everyone is convinced, no matter what, at least it has initially gained recognition from most people and did not cause the worst situation of collapse of people's hearts. Then the war ahead was discussed, and the armies raised the most urgent difficulties they were facing, mostly logistical supply issues, and then Yan Wan gave the time and strategy to solve them one by one.

As he said, An Xiulin did not interfere in these matters, but just put it in front of the hall as a statue of god. Every time he asked for something, he made every promise, which made the generals feel relieved.

Those who are the best may not understand, but don’t pretend to understand. Rebellion is like entrepreneurship. An Xiulin invests in An’s bloodline and orthodox righteousness. Others invest in shares with their intelligence and courage and loyalty. Only who should do their jobs can maintain good operations and not collapse in the middle of the business.

Afterwards, he arranged a meal briefly. After all, King Jiangxia was terminally ill and eating and drinking was not a good idea. After dinner, they went back to their rooms to rest and prepared to go back to Xinting early tomorrow morning. Cao Shugui retreated and did not dare to show up. He didn't even deserve to lift his shoes to Shen Du, but he couldn't really take him as if he was completely useless. If the other party suddenly became nervous and organized a counterattack tonight, there were only a few generals left in Xinting, and he might not be able to defend it.

During the Yin hour, there were no stars or moons. It was just when I was sleeping sounding. Noisy footsteps sounded in the house. Accompanied by the screams of many servants, everyone came out of the room and saw Yang Chun and hundreds of guards closely guarding the intersections. Only then did they realize that King Jiangxia had just passed away.

Because the scene performed during the day reserved time and space for psychological construction for everyone, the death of King Jiangxia did not cause much trouble. An Xiulin cried and died in front of the sickbed. Tan Xiaozu pulled him up and said sternly: "The three armies should not be without a leader for a day. Please immediately receive the seal of the Grand Marshal, the Grand Governor, and the Governor of Jingzhou. From now on, the Jingzhou army will be tens of thousands of strong and will be driven by His Highness..."

Before he finished speaking, Yan Wan rushed in with her two people. One of them was An Zishang, the King of Jingling. He was old and covered in dirt. His coarse cloth and linen clothes were smelly. He shouted: "What else can I bear to be the governor of Jingzhou... I want me to say, Xiulin, you should ascend the throne as emperor!"

The whole room was shocked, and even the crying stopped. However, in just a few breaths, his head was full of energy and realized that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. General Lingjiang and the prefect of Changning Luo Qin knelt down and said, "What King Jingling said is extremely true. Don't robbers clearly leverage the power of the state. It is extremely cruel and chaotic. Your Highness cannot be safe and secure. Moreover, the rank of honor cannot be emptied for a long time, and the opportunity cannot be lost for a long time. Jiexiao dares to ask Your Highness to ascend the throne. After the success of the matter, Jiexiao is willing to repay the crime of usurpation for death!"

Yan Wan was arrogant and extremely agile, but at the critical moment, she was taken first by a small prefect. She immediately looked at her coldly, recorded the black account in her heart, and then knelt down, saying, "I heard that the people were born to be a noble people, so I went to the world to go to the world, so I was the master of Li Yuan. The sage king knew that the world could not be lacking, so I bent his body to worship it; I knew that the steaming and Li could not be without a master, so I had to face it. Now the danger of the country is like a plaque. Please ask Your Highness to take the country as his duty, the head of Guizhou as his worries, and inherit Hongxu."

An Xiulin waved his hand anxiously, quickly helped Yan Wan and Luo Qin up, and said in tears: "My third brother just left, I am sad and regretful, I have no master of my feelings, how dare I take up the throne without any reason? This matter must not be mentioned again..."

Following An Zishang was Yuan Can. Seeing that An Xiuming killed An Yuxiu and Xinting returned with great defeat, Cao Shu changed her sanity and would either die at An Xiuming's hands or be questioned after the city was broken. It would be better to leave the city as soon as possible to surrender. With his Yuan family's lintel, he should protect himself.

However, the Sili Mansion gradually increased the curfew, and it was not so easy to leave the city now. Yuan Can had already seen that An Zishang also wanted to leave the city, so he quietly went to the royal mansion. The two hit it off, then drilled the dog hole and came out of Qingxi, and escaped from the southern city along the Qinhuai River.

Who knew that just three miles away from the city, I met Xiao Xunqi.

Xiao Xunqi stood alone on the left side of the road, but no one knew how many murderous disciples were hidden in the darkness behind him. An Zishang was so scared that his face was pale and collapsed into the ox cart. Even Yuan Can thought that the big thing was gone and was about to be killed. But unexpectedly, Xiao Xunqi did not take action, but bowed to the ox cart from afar, and then turned around and sank into the night in the distance.

After a long time, An Zishang and Yuan Can, who were surviving in a desperate situation, looked at each other, and Yuan Can whispered: "What does Captain Xiao mean?"

An Zishang swallowed with difficulty and said, "The tree fell and the money scattered. He is begging us to say a few good things to Xiao in the future..."

Even Xiao Xunqi knew that the situation was about to go, so he deliberately let An Zishang and Yuan Can go together to make a good relationship for the future of the family. An Zishang won his love and went to Jiangning without sleep. He happened to catch up with the scene of An Xiulin crying for his third brother, and immediately gave out the advice he originally wanted to give Jiangxia King.

Please An Xiulin ascend the throne!

Anyway, the meat is rotten in your own pot and King Jiangxia is gone, that is, King Linchuan.

Many times, even if the emperor’s choice is so casual, it is just luck!
