She even said that she would rather die than see Xia Houzheng succeed in life, this treacherous official!
Seeing her daughter like this, the mother was still worried that something would happen to her daughter. She could not help but tear up.
Her daughter comforted her mother, saying that everyone had to die for the sake of righteousness. Even if she died, it was worth it.
The date set to retaliate within the walls fell on the ninth of July. On that day, the 600,000 soldiers that Xia Houzheng had sent out had also left for the border. Even if they learned of the situation in the capital, they wouldn't be able to come back in time to help. Moreover, the army now resented Xia Houzheng. They felt that Xia Houzheng's rewards and punishments were unfair and that he did things according to how he felt during that time instead of thinking of his people. Even if they rushed back later, no one would want to avenge Xia Houzheng once they realized he was dead.
