Chapter 341

Gu Yi lied to him, Fa Zheng lied to him, everyone was lying to him!

"Hahahaha, hahahahaha..."

"I am the founding monarch, I shall last for a thousand generations!"

Before the words had faded,

Yuan Shu had already ordered the hundred death-sworn followers hidden in the palace to rush out from beside the curtains, holding torches.

The torches were thrown onto the ground.

The sky-high flames ignited rapidly.

Xia Houyuan, Le Jin, Chen Qun, Liu Xun, and others hurriedly fled outside the palace.

While Yuan Shu and those hundred death-sworn followers, as well as the fragments of the high-imitation Imperial Jade Seal, were reduced to ashes in the sea of fire.

These hundred death-sworn followers were left to him by Yuan Shu's biological father, Yuan Feng.

They had followed him for over ten years to this day.

At the same time, they were also the group Yuan Shu trusted most besides Ji Ling.

But relying solely on these hundred-odd people, Yuan Shu could not fight his way out of the palace.

Thus, he had ordered these death-sworn followers in advance to hide in the palace hall holding torches.

Although Yuan Shu was quite a pit, incompetent but addicted to power,

this did not mean he had no dignity or backbone at all.

Among the aristocratic family descendants, Cao Cao was the person he looked down upon the most.

Even in death, he could not let his corpse fall into Cao Cao's hands.

This was Yuan Shu's final principle.

And at the moment before the flames completely swallowed his body,

Yuan Shu's mind once again surfaced with his favorite honey water.

"Unh, no... no more honey water!"

Yuan Shu, Yuan Gonglu, the founding emperor of the Zhong Dynasty, ultimately died in the sea of fire.

All in all, he had established the Zhong Dynasty for less than three months.

However,

after the flames burned out,

Xia Houyuan and the others discovered that something was wrong.

Although Yuan Shu was dead,

but... where had his son and daughter, as well as his so-called Empress, gone?

Except for his eldest son, Yuan Yao, who had been executed by Dong Zhuo after the first coalition failed,

Yuan Shu had another son with his second wife, named Yuan Han.

Although he was not yet five years old, he had been established as the Crown Prince of the Zhong Dynasty by Yuan Shu early on.

Besides Yuan Han,

Yuan Shu also had an only daughter, named Yuan Li.

These two, as well as Yuan Shu's second wife, had all lost their traces.
