The harem has been controlled, and the maids and eunuchs are staying in the courtyard and do not dare to move around at will.
He Juntao came over and said, "The queen is being held in prison."
Long Chen walked to the prison, and He Juntao reported the situation in the harem.
Shi Le gave poison to the concubines, princesses and young princes, and those who ate the poison died from the poison.
Queen Lu was imprisoned in prison, but Shi Le actually forgot and did not give poison to Queen Lu.
Long Chen entered the prison, where the maids and eunuchs who made mistakes were imprisoned.
Walking to a prison, Long Chen saw the disheveled queen.
"The Queen."
Standing in front of the cell door, Long Chen shouted.
Queen Lu, who was lying on the haystack, got up immediately when she heard the sound.
This voice is too familiar, it is Liu Feng's voice.
Climbing to the prison door, Queen Lu saw Long Chen.
"You are really Long Chengen!"
Queen Lu shook her head regretfully, she lamented that she was too stupid to be played around by Long Chen.
"Yes, I am Long Chengen, Xiao Lizi is me, and Liu Feng is me too."
Queen Lu knelt on the ground and cried: "You are standing here, aren't you?"
With a look from Long Chen, He Juntao opened the prison door.
"Yes, Shi Le is dead and Xixia is dead."
Queen Lu burst into tears.
When the prisoners in the prison heard that Xixia was destroyed, some were happy, some were sad, and some were expressionless.
After a long time, Queen Lu finished crying. She slowly climbed up while holding on to the prison pillar and said, "I am the queen of Xixia. Xixia has died. I should also die for my country, but I cannot die here."
Long Chen nodded and said: "Jun Tao, help the queen return to the palace."
He Juntao helped the queen out of the prison and slowly walked back to the bedroom.
The maids in the palace didn't know what was going on, so no one dared to move.
Long Chen ordered the maids to wait on the queen to bathe and change clothes.
After taking a bath, she changed into her phoenix robe, dressed up the queen, and finally put on her phoenix crown.
Queen Lu was sitting on the phoenix chair, looking majestic as a mother honoring the world.
Long Chen took out a red pill and said, "This is what Shi Le gave to the concubines in the harem. They are all dead."
Queen Lu nodded, calmly picked up the pill and swallowed it.
"Long Chengen."
Queen Lu looked at Long Chen and said, "I thank you."
Long Chen looked at Queen Lu and didn't know what to say.
Soon, Queen Lu began to suffer from abdominal pain. She leaned on the chair and looked very painful.
Long Chen found a few needles and inserted them into acupuncture points. The abdominal pain was relieved. Queen Lu leaned on the chair and her body began to go limp.
Queen Lu grabbed Long Chen's hand and said with a sad smile: "It would be great if you were not Long Chengen."
Long Chen watched Queen Lu slowly close her eyes and die.
call
Seeing Queen Lu die in front of his eyes, Long Chen suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
"Buried according to the rites of a queen."
Long Chen sighed, turned around and quickly walked out of the dormitory.
He Juntao immediately buried Queen Lu in accordance with the queen's etiquette.
It was already dark outside. Except for the troops who stayed in the city to maintain order, all the others went out to camp to prevent the troops from disturbing the people.
Order in the city has begun to be restored, and order in the palace has also been restored.
Long Chen stayed in Concubine Li's palace, and Bai Tingting waited on her in the room.
"Bring me pen and ink."
I brought over the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and Long Chen took up his pen to write a battle report.
He carefully explained the process of siege, then detailed his follow-up plans, and finally wrote down the help he needed.
After writing it, Long Chen said: "Flying Eagle passed the letter back to the capital."
Bai Tingting accepted it and immediately sent a letter back to the capital.
That night, Long Chen ordered the entire army to celebrate the victory, and Wu Jian and the lieutenant general became extremely drunk.
Long Chen only drank a little. Queen Lu's death made Long Chen feel a little uncomfortable.
Most importantly, Long Chen was worried about something happening at night.
If the remaining Xixia forces launch a night attack and the lieutenants and generals are drunk, there will be trouble.
the next day.
The soldiers of the three armies slept until noon, and the people in the city had already reopened their doors.
When the people saw the army camped outside the city and there was no army disturbing the people, they were very happy and said that Long Chen was the master of the king.
The soldiers who surrendered in Xixia took the money and went home, and no one made any trouble.
Shi Le set fire to his own people at the north gate. The soldiers were extremely disappointed with Shi Le and did not want to restore Xixia.
As soon as Long Chen got up, Zhao Ying rushed into the room and asked, "Where is Lu Qichang?"
Zhao Ying believed that Lu Qichang killed Zhao Lun and she wanted to avenge her father.
Last night, Zhao Ying looked for someone everywhere but couldn't find him at all. Today he came to ask Long Chen for someone.
Long Chen shook his head and said: "The army entered the palace yesterday and the scene was very chaotic. Lu Qichang may have died in the chaos."
Zhao Ying said disappointedly: "I still haven't been able to kill my enemy with my own hands."
Bai Tingting came out of the bedroom in her pajamas. When she heard Zhao Ying's words, she comforted her: "It's okay to die. If you are killed by the rebels, it will be even worse."
Zhao Ying thinks so, they will all die anyway.
"Sir, can we triumph?"
Zhao Ying felt that Shi Le had been killed and Xixia had been destroyed, so he could return his troops.
Shi Le shook his head and said: "How can it be so fast? If we attack, we have to hold on. If we don't care, it will be chaos if we leave."
"Tingting, go and send an order to gather all the surviving officials in the royal city to the main hall."
Bai Tingting nodded, and after washing up, she immediately took Zhao Ying out to deliver the order.
After Long Chen finished washing, he went to the main hall and sat down first.
Soon, the surviving officials arrived at the main hall.
Wen Qining, the Minister of Hubu, Leyu, the Duzhi Secretary, and other officials from various ministries.
Because Long Chen strictly restrained the army, there was no major chaos in the city, and most of the civil servants in the DPRK and China were still there, so they were not affected.
Seeing Long Chen, the officials knelt down and kowtowed one after another.
Normally, officials do not kneel or kowtow. They are afraid of Long Chen, so they do this.
"Everyone, please get up. We will be colleagues from now on. I am not an emperor, so you don't need to kneel down and kowtow to me."
Long Chen said with a smile, and the civil servant got up excitedly.
Wen Qining bowed and said, "Our lives are all in King Wu's hands. Please show your support to King Wu."
Le Yu bowed and said, "We are at the mercy of King Wu."
Other ministers then expressed their willingness to submit to Zhou Dynasty.
Long Chen secretly laughed in his heart: When the country is in crisis, military generals die on the battlefield, and civil servants either fight among themselves or surrender, it's really disgusting.
However, stabilizing the situation in Xixia still depends on these people, so Long Chen should still be given face.
"Don't worry, my lords, I will definitely inform the Holy Spirit to allow you to continue to hold important positions."
Hearing what Long Chen said, all the ministers were overjoyed and worshiped in unison: "King Wu is so kind that we will never forget it!"
Long Chen chuckled, and suddenly said in a cold voice: "But, the dirty talk is ahead. If anyone dares to cheat, I will send him to see Shi Le!"
Everyone was so frightened by Long Chen that they almost peed their pants, and they all worshiped: "How dare you not try your best!"
Long Chen waved his hand and said: "Okay, let's go and do whatever you have to do!"
Everyone immediately went back to the Yamen to do their work, for fear of being killed by Long Chen.
After finishing his speech, Wu Jian came over and said, "Sir, these people are just so scary. Is it really a good idea to use them?"
He Juntao also felt there was a problem and advised: "Sir, these people are colluding with each other and are an interest group with family power behind them. I'm afraid it's not appropriate to continue to use them."
Wu Jian echoed: "Now I am afraid of the might of your army. When you leave this place and return to Beijing, Xixia will be controlled by them."
The family power in Xixia is very powerful, and the clans are also very serious. Keeping these people around is indeed a big disaster.
Long Chen smiled and said: "How could I not know that I have already thought of a solution."
"Call Zhu Yong and Hu Jie. I have something to tell them to do."
