Snatching Women from the Male Lead

Qin Zhao looked in the direction the soldier was pointing.

She only saw a few dozen human-like creatures that looked like dogs, climbing up the city wall at extreme speed!

They had a shape similar to humans, but were only half a meter tall, and their appearance was indescribable.

Their fingertips and toes were sharp, embedded in the wall to provide them with support like climbing.

Qin Lie raised his hand to block the blinding bright light on his forehead, and looked at the wooden people who were approaching the top of the city tower.

He thought that with their appearance, they had already won halfway before the fight even started!

This was the first time she had seen Mo Qianqiu carve the features of the wooden people. She was so ugly that she jumped back ten meters!

She originally wanted Mo Qianqiu to learn sketching before reshaping his features.

But she thought that those ugly things could be as ugly to others as they were to her, which was also an advantage.

On the city tower, Qin Lie had already retreated to a safe distance.

Xu Xiao commanded the Imperial Guards to stop the wooden people!

But people instinctively wanted to avoid the novel and ugly things.

They pushed each other, you stepped on my feet, I kicked your back of your knees, neither letting way, and slowly moved away from the wooden people.

After the wooden people climbed onto the city wall, they rushed recklessly among the Imperial Guards.

At the same time, people faintly smelled a scent!

Although the wooden people did not harm anyone, the Imperial Guards were still so scared that they fled in all directions, accompanied by screams!

The scene was very lively.

Until someone accidentally stepped on the foot of a wooden man, the situation took a turn!

The man shouted, "This stuff has no killing power. It rots when you step on it!

Don't be afraid everyone, let's go together!"

This worked. People tentatively approached the wooden people and found that nothing dangerous happened!

Then someone started hacking them with knives.

Immediately afterwards, the Imperial Guards discovered another terrifying fact―the wooden people could not be killed!

No matter how many times they chopped it, or which part they chopped off, they could not stop the behavior of the wooden people!

Before long, the frenzied movements of the wooden people were joined by fierce attacks of brandishing claws and baring fangs.

Their sharp fingers cut some imperial guards' faces and necks, and some even directly cut the carotid artery of the soldiers, killing them on the spot!

A sense of horror spread among the Imperial Guards!

In the midst of the chaos, Xu Xiao walked over and picked up the foot that had been stepped off of the wooden man.

He rubbed it with his hand and actually rubbed out some sawdust.

Xu Xiao immediately realized that those monsters were made of wood!

He shouted, "Come on, burn them with fire!"

Hearing the shout, the Imperial Guards immediately had people with torches who withstood the pressure and came forward to ignite the wooden people!

In less than half a cup of tea, all the wooden people were burning.

The Imperial Guards surrounded them in the middle, as if enjoying a bonfire.

It was unknown who cheered, which led to the chorus of others!

In the midst of the cheers, they dispelled their previous fears.

Xu Xiao also laughed aloud with everyone: "Hahaha! The foolish Imperial Princess actually thought she could break through the city gate defense line with these monsters. It's just wishful thinking!"

He had just finished speaking when he smelled a strong scent of fragrance. His body instinctively reminded him that there was something strange about this fragrance!

The anesthesia perfume that Qin Zhao hid in the wooden people evaporated as the fire burned, lingering in the air.

Soon, the collapsed imperial guards two by two verified his guess!

Xu Xiao himself also felt dizzy in the head!

The scene in front of him became distorted. He could barely see the imperial guards collapsing, firstly in groups of three and two, then later in large groups!

There was also a figure rolling and crawling to escape in the distance of a hundred meters.

Before passing out completely, Xu Xiao could only think of two words in his mind: "It's over!"

Qin Zhao listened carefully to the voices on the city building. After it quieted down above, she said, "Yin Xuan, go and see what is going on."

Yin Xuan took the order. With her superior lightness martial arts, she leapt onto the city building.

A while later, she stood on it and shouted to Qin Zhao, "Everyone has collapsed."

Qin Zhao pointed at the city gate, "Open the door."

Then the gate opened wide!

Qin Zhao raised her hand and snapped her fingers!

The ground shook, and 50,000 Northwestern Army troops marched over neatly and entered the capital with Qin Zhao!

The citizens in the city had hidden in their houses and closed their doors and windows since the Imperial Guards had set out.

There were no shadows on the streets.

Qin Zhao walked through Luoxi Street, Taoyuan Street, Changan Street... unhindered.

Passing the mansions of Prince Jin, Prince Qi, Prince Yan and other princes, she ordered them to be surrounded!

The Forbidden City was also deserted. Qin Zhao entered through the south gate without even seeing any guards.

It wasn't until she walked to the Heaven and Earth Hall that she finally saw 40,000 Imperial Guards guarding the door of the hall!

Prince Jin Qin Lie stood next to the commander of the Imperial Guards, Chen Jin.

When the two sides were no more than a hundred meters apart, Chen Jin drew out his sword and said to Qin Zhao, "Princess, please do not go any further, otherwise we will stake our lives to protect His Majesty's safety."

Qin Zhao said, "Since Father is in the Heaven and Earth Hall, why doesn't he come out and talk to me for a few words?

Some things really don't need to be solved by force."

Chen Jin turned his head and said to the palace attendant, "Go report to His Majesty and say that Her Highness wants to see him."

The attendant went inside. Soon, he came out and conveyed Chen Jin the emperor’s words, "His Majesty said he would not see anyone."

Chen Jin's expression was slightly gloomy. The Imperial Guards had enjoyed superior treatment in the capital for many years.

Many people had grown fat bellies, and had long lost their sense of crisis and ability to fight!

If they really fought with the Northwestern Army, they would undoubtedly lose.

Chen Jin pretended to be calm and persuaded Qin Zhao, "Your Highness, your actions are outrageous. Even if you successfully seize the throne, you will not get the recognition of people across the country!

If you repent now, His Majesty always dotes on you and will definitely forgive you.

Achieving great things is a man’s business. Isn’t it good for you as a woman to enjoy ready-made glory and wealth? Why bother doing such unrewarding things?

Your Highness..."

"Shut up, just nonsense!" Qin Zhao stopped him.

Chen Jin's complexion turned red, and he spoke with some stutters, "How can Your Highness, as a golden branch and jade leaf, use such vulgar words?!"

Qin Zhao said, "You only deserve this kind of words."

All of Chen Jin's sanity before was instantly blown away by this sentence!

He roared, "Imperial guards, listen to orders! Defend the Heaven and Earth Hall to the death and vow not to let the Imperial Princess move forward half a step!"

40,000 Imperial Guards responded in unison: "Never retreat even if we die!"

Qin Zhao said to the Northwestern Army, "Go!"

Huo Jun led a team to rush into the torrent of imperial guards first!

The Northwestern Army charged like arrows leaving the string and collided with the Imperial Guards!

Qin Zhao strode forward, heading straight for the gate of the Heaven and Earth Hall!

She was surrounded by four masters from the List of Heroes in the World, and they beat away those who tried to rush her until they fell face down.

Chen Jin was also kicked away by Cong Han!

Upon seeing this, Qin Lie's body involuntarily retreated until his back touched the gate of the Heaven and Earth Hall. He turned around and slammed the door fiercely, but the attendant inside refused to open it for him.

In despair, Qin Lie looked around, trying to find an escape route.

He remembered that no matter what happened, the Empress Dowager who could deal with things calmly, so he wanted to run towards Jingning Palace.

But before he could take a step, he was stopped by Qin Zhao!

Qin Zhao's Golden Sword was tightly attached to his neck.

Qin Lie couldn't stop trembling, causing the skin on his neck to be cut open, and blood flowed down his neck, soaking his light blue python robe.

Qin Lie looked up and said with his mouth open, "Sister, spare me. My daughter is still waiting for me at home."

Qin Zhao sneered contemptuously. "So no matter what kind of status a person is, when faced with a crisis, they love to pull out family members to gain sympathy."

"No, I really love my daughter very much. If you can't give me a way to live, at least let me see my daughter again. I will thank you."

"Huh, who cares about your thanks.

But you should be fortunate you gave birth to a daughter. I won't do anything to her.

After all, she is also my niece."

After she finished speaking, Qin Zhao took Qin Lie's life.

After shaking the blood off her Golden Sword, Qin Zhao walked to the Heaven and Earth Hall. Together with Cong Han, Shen Xue, Ling Yuan and Yin Xuan, she pushed down the thousand-jin heavy door!

Sitting on the dragon chair, Qin Zheng squinted his eyes, stung by the sudden light.

The ministers looked at Qin Zhao in horror as she strode closer and consciously gave way.

Qin Zhao walked alone through the ministers and climbed the jade steps.

Standing in front of the dragon chair, she said to Qin Zheng, "You should abdicate."
