Chapter 1246: Chapter 1179: The Last Spot on the Rebellion Ship Is Yours_3

This is leading the Quan family to join the rebellion.

How dare she, no, she really dares!

Quan Ji’s mouth felt dry as he approached the table, picked up the teapot, and gulped down half of it. After a while, he said, "You wouldn’t happen to fancy Prince Rui, would you?"

"It is not me who fancies him, but the whole world does."

Quan Ji said, "The Quan family is loyal to the Emperor and the nation. This has never changed."

Whoever becomes the Emperor, they are loyal to him. This is the family rule of the Quan.

"I am not asking you to rebel and assassinate the monarch in the Imperial Palace. I am just asking you to take a side," Qin Liuxi said. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Quan Ji almost lost his composure upon hearing the words "assassinate the monarch"; this person is truly bold.

"Is it true that the Emperor Star is dimming?"

Qin Liuxi nodded, saying, "In three years, the Emperor Star will surely fall."

This three years is a conservative estimate. Perhaps by next year, the emperor, who has accumulated toxicity, will ascend to heaven.

Quan Ji felt chills on his scalp. It wasn’t due to disbelief in Qin Liuxi’s words, but precisely because he believed them, and hence felt chills. Now the national treasury was empty, wars frequent, the alien races and barbarians constantly attempting to invade the Central Plains. Once the Saint falls, with internal strife and external threat, the people will surely fall into misery.

Xi Zheng was very wise. Seeing Qin Liuxi’s calm expression, he said: "Temple master must have already favored Prince Rui to ascend the throne and prepared for it?"

Qin Liuxi nodded: "The new imperial title, the team to stabilize the state, is just missing soldiers like you."

Quan Ji felt a tremor in his heart. This was speaking of rebellion, wasn’t it? Many have already taken a position with the dragon; are they still trailing behind?

"This matter isn’t something I can decide. The old man is most loyal to Da Feng. The Quan Family Army is still under his command." Quan Ji said, "I still say, the Quan family has always been loyal to the Emperor."

Qin Liuxi chuckled.

Quan Ji continued, "But since the temple master favors someone, that person is also our family friend. Naturally, for friends, convenience must be afforded."

Qin Liuxi glanced at him, saying, "You don’t need to do anything, just support when necessary."

"That’s likely, that’s likely."

Qin Liuxi handed him two Spirit Fruits: "Eat one and return to the camp. I think the imperial decree will arrive soon. As a loyal servant of the nation, being overly involved in personal matters may bring criticism, especially now. Winter is coming, and wars are frequent in the northwest. You will face the most difficult situations of your life. Having Silver, store more provisions and winter clothing. Calm the soldiers to avoid rebellion."

Quan Ji’s expression became stern.

Qin Liuxi carried the child out, leaving the space for the couple.

Quan Ji swallowed one fruit and intended the other for Xi Zheng, who moved aside a bit: "I don’t want it; the temple master will prescribe medicine for me. You need it more, keep it for the journey. Come up, sleep for fifteen minutes, then return."

She was never the affectionate type. Quan Ji understood her nature well and didn’t hesitate, kicked off his boots, and got into bed, lying beside her, saying: "Do you think our Quan family should strive for this position with the dragon?"

Xi Zheng gently brushed his forehead hair: "I believe in the temple master. She will not harm me, nor will she harm you or our son."

Otherwise, Qin Liuxi would have merely ignored them, why would she go to such efforts.

Quan Ji murmured an agreement, closed his eyes, saying: "Your bed is so warm..."

Before finishing his sentence, his breathing became steady.

Xi Zheng looked at his sparse beard, with skin almost dry and cracked, and felt a twinge of pity.

A quarter of an hour passed quickly. Quan Ji was awakened by Xi Zheng, with fatigue washed away and vitality restored, as he donned a cloak: "I’ll have Quan An escort you back to the city. Recuperate for one month at home, then stay another two months."

"No need for you. I will escort them back." Qin Liuxi walked in with the child: "I will escort them back to the Quan family. Here are a few Fire Talismans, take them with you, they can keep you warm."

Quan Ji hurriedly received them.

"These two, set them aflame when you are trapped, it will ensure safety, but use them only when in dire straits." Qin Liuxi handed over two more.

Xi Zheng’s heart tightened; this meant he might face danger twice?

Quan Ji flashed her a reassuring look, saying: "Take care of our son. By the way, what’s his name?"

"Quan Xi, a name bestowed by the temple master, means persistent growth and upward." Xi Zheng said.

Quan Ji offered a grand salute to Qin Liuxi, saying: "After returning to the city, Zheng will donate incense oil to you."

Qin Liuxi: "Go northwest, good things will happen."

Quan Ji’s eyes brightened, though not three hours later, when he finally chopped the head of the last Turkic man, his strength fled him, falling to the ground, feeling the arrow wound on his shoulder, wincing at the pain.

Damn, is this good?

After a fierce battle, he nearly lost half his life.

Still, seeing the twenty-something sleek, robust horses brought back by his subordinates, he grinned broadly. Ah, indeed this was good!
