With the cannon fodder script in hand, it is easy for the king to change his fate

"Your Majesty, let's arrange for envoys to negotiate and see if we can reach a peace agreement," a minister said. "Ask Canglan what it will take to get them to withdraw their troops. Under the current circumstances, it is not appropriate to start a war. Moreover, the reason Canglan declared war on Southern Qi is very wrong. It is obvious that there is some misunderstanding. Let's arrange for envoys to ask what is going on. It would be best if we can resolve the misunderstanding."

Canglan State has strong soldiers and horses. Even if Southern Qi can consume its strength, it has no chance of winning. The enemy is much stronger than Northern Qi. The best option at the moment is to negotiate peace.

At this time, even the ministers who were willing to fight at the beginning did not say much.

Southern Qi has missed the best opportunity. Now Canglan Kingdom has almost recovered and is not afraid of fighting at all.

There were too many unexpected events today. Even though Song Jing didn't understand much about them, she knew that Nan Qi was facing a bigger crisis, and she felt a little nervous.

She looked at Ah Qi and suddenly said, "Father, since there is such an urgent matter, why don't we keep Cui Qi first, just in case she can be of some use? Cui Qi is backed by the Canglan Kingdom after all. If we really kill her, will the Canglan Kingdom use this as an excuse..."

Cui Qi's ending was not good, but she would be miserable if she lived. At this time, she was just saying a few words for the overall situation. After all, she had told her elder and second brothers that they would plead for Cui Qi. She could not be sure whether her father would agree to her plea today. Moreover, what she said was well-reasoned and there was nothing wrong with it.

Song Chong glanced at A'qi, not wanting to let her go.

But what Jing'er said made sense. What if Cui Qi could be of any use? If he was useless, it wouldn't be too late to kill him then.

"Throw Cui Qi into jail."

Song Chong narrowed his eyes: "The rest will be dealt with as usual."

Seeing A'qi being taken to jail, the originally uneasy Cui Yu breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the real change was that Canglan declared war on Southern Qi, and there should be no other problems on Cui's side.

When Ah Qi passed by Cui Yu, Cui Yu said, "From now on, you are no longer the daughter of my Cui family. You have done such a thing, and the Cui family is too small to accommodate you."

"Okay, Master Cui, I don't really like staying at the Cui family's place. It's not a small place, but there's no place for me." Ah Qi smiled. When she was escorted to the entrance of the Golden Throne Hall, she turned around and said, "Since you guys are done, it's my turn to go on stage."

As soon as he finished speaking, the people who were originally escorting Asui immediately became her close bodyguards, protecting her in the center.

The environment in that prison was not very good. She didn't want to stay there for a moment if she could avoid it. So let's just leave it at that.

The guards who had surrounded A'rui suddenly turned their swords and pointed them at Song Chong and all the ministers in the court. At the same time, more people rushed in. Rows of archers came in from behind A'rui and poured out from all directions of the hall. With just one word from her, the people here would be shot into sieves.

No one can escape.

The throne room now was inaccessible. For the first time, everyone had such a profound understanding of this phrase.

The change happened too quickly and no one could react. It was just like the scene at the Northern Qi palace banquet a few years ago when A'rui shot the Northern Qi Emperor Song Kuo to death with one arrow. It was so shocking that it took everyone a long time to come back to their senses.

"Capture them all." Ah Qi's voice was soft, but it reached everyone's ears clearly. The Golden Palace was really quiet at this moment. "Kill the rebels!"

"Cui Jue, what are you doing?" Song Jing shouted, not believing the sudden change. She looked at the people around her, "Cui Jue is not a real princess, so she is not the crown princess. My father doesn't even recognize her. Why are you still listening to Cui Jue? Do you want to be exterminated?"

"You have to think clearly. Today we are rebelling. If you fail, not only you but also your relatives will be implicated." Song Jing said again. But no one responded to her. Everyone only listened to Ah Qi. After all, they were all from her Canglan country. How could they be afraid of the imperial power of Southern Qi?

Song Chong winked at the man in the corner, and the man rushed out in a flash. An arrow shot through the air and pierced his throat, killing him on the spot.

"If you still want to leave, you can try." Ah Qi glanced at the people around her. They all looked pale without any trace of victory. She looked at Song Chong, "Emperor of Southern Qi, do you want to run?"

"If you can run away, I won't do anything to you. Why don't you try?"

Song Chong was sweating profusely. He looked at the rows of archers facing him, slumped down on the dragon chair, and smiled bitterly: "Is this the method used by Canglan Kingdom? Wasn't this also how Northern Qi was destroyed?"

"We were not as wealthy as we are today," Ah Qi answered. "At that time, I only asked Song Kuo for two baskets of arrows. The bow was light and difficult to use. In the end, I even threw the bow away. It was better to just throw arrows. At the beginning, I was the only one. I didn't expect that after killing a group of them, I would have many more subordinates, and then accidentally established a country."

what?
What does she mean?
I can understand every word, but why is it so difficult to understand when they are put together?

Impossible, how is it possible?

In fact, they understood. Doesn't this mean that she is the empress of Canglan Kingdom? How is it possible!

The people who couldn't believe it the most were naturally the Cui family. It was impossible, absolutely impossible! Don't they know what Cui Qi is capable of? She grew up in the Cui family, she wouldn't have that kind of ability.

By the way, the empress of Canglan Country’s surname is Yu, not Song or Cui, so it can’t be Cui Qi. When everyone thought of this, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

The country standing behind her should be Canglan Country. Everything she did today was relying on Canglan Country.

"Cui Qi, what you did today will surely be infamous for eternity." Song Chong said.

Cui Yu said, "Qian'er, how could you do such a thing? Are you worthy of the ancestors of the Cui family?"

He was very nervous. Canglan Country had actually arranged things to this extent. If he had known this earlier, why didn't he agree to Cui Qi?

"Qian'er, you shouldn't help Canglan Country to harm your own country. How could you do this?" Ning cried, "Qian'er, do you want to watch your relatives die?"

Cui Zhao was no longer as calm as he was at the beginning. Being pointed at by those arrows made his scalp tingle: "Qian'er, do you really want to betray your country?"

Cui Chen did not say anything, but his heart was surprisingly much calmer than before. At this moment, he was thinking about the meaning of a certain saying from the past: The winner is the king, the loser is the bandit!
Doesn’t today’s scene fully illustrate this sentence?

Those people around him who condemned Cui Qi had wanted to kill her before.

When the incident happened to them, they changed their faces again. These people were actually his relatives. After years of getting along with them, he still didn't seem to understand them very well. (End of this chapter)
