All the civil servants and generals breathed a sigh of relief, especially Feng Shilang, who almost cried with joy.
Who is not afraid of death!
Feng Shilang is still waiting to become the Minister of Rites to serve the Qi Dynasty loyally! How can he be willing to die generously!
The guards made a way, and the ministers walked in one after another. However, they did not see the prince. Instead, they were led into an empty room.
"My lords, please stay here." The guard of the East Palace said solemnly: "If His Highness wants to summon you, he will give you an oral message."
Anyway, being closer to the prince and knowing that there are five hundred East Palace guards guarding the outside makes me feel much safer.
Mr. Xu Ge and others breathed a long sigh of relief.
After a while, several more civil servants and military generals were brought over one after another. At a glance, they were enough to hold a Umrah meeting.
The screams of death and screams outside became increasingly clear. It was obvious that the Imperial Guards were completely at a disadvantage and were struggling to resist.
Feng Shilang subconsciously moved closer to Xie Shangshu of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Feng Shilang's eldest granddaughter married Xie Shangshu's direct grandson. The Feng and Xie families were related by marriage, and they were quite close to each other on weekdays.
Xie Shangshu was filled with panic and whispered: "I don't know if the Royal Forest Army can last for half a day."
Feng Shilang's heart was pounding: "I can definitely hold on!"
On the other side, Wang Zhang, an official of the East Palace, frowned and asked Yuan Hai: "Who will cause trouble?"
Yuan Hai looked grave, gritted his teeth and said angrily: "It must be one of the kings of Qin, Zhao and Han!"
It may also be two of them. If the three of them join forces, today will be really bad. A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Let’s talk about King Qin first. He has been operating secretly for many years and has raised many secret guards. King Zhao and King Han also
Many people are secretly recruiting people. If they all gathered together...it would be frightening to think about it.
The more Wang Hai thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he whispered: "I don't know how peaceful the palace is right now!"
Yuan Hai silently looked in the direction of the palace.
Emperor Long'an passed away. If all goes well, the prince will soon ascend the throne. His sister Yuan Xiang will be the Queen of Daqi. His daughter Yuan Min will be the Crown Princess of the East Palace.
The Yuan family has been betting on King Yan for many years, and they are about to reap huge rewards. If someone with ulterior motives gets their hands on him...
Yuan Hai took a deep breath: "His Royal Highness has already made arrangements in the palace. If someone really takes the opportunity to cause trouble, as long as the crown prince and grandson concubine are protected, there will be no chaos in the palace."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open.
Everyone looked over in unison, with hopes, fear, and confusion in their eyes.
A guard from the East Palace appeared at the door, delivering the prince's oral instructions and summoning Wang Zhang and Yuan Hai.
Wang Zhang and Yuan Hai looked at each other, accepted the order together, and walked out with the East Palace guards.
The people the prince trusted the most were his cousins and uncles.
Feng Shilang looked at the backs of Wang Zhang and Yuan Hai with envious eyes.
Shen You held a long sword and led his guards to guard outside the prince's door.
Wang Zhang and Yuan Hai soon met the prince. The prince's face was a little pale, but his expression was calm and steady. His grandson Zhu Yun was also beside the prince, his handsome face full of anger.
"Your Highness!" Wang Zhang and Yuan Hai were about to salute, and the prince waved his hand: "What time of day is it now? What else can I salute? Come here!"
The two of them walked to the prince's side with solemn expressions.
Before the two of them heard the news, Zhu Yun gritted his teeth and said angrily: "I heard something wrong and knew something was wrong. I immediately rushed to see my father. My father sent someone to 'invite' King Qin and others to come over. I never thought,
They are all gone."
them!
Yuan Hai's heart suddenly sank, and he looked at the prince: "Are the three kings of Qin, Zhao, Han and Han rebelling?"
The prince rubbed his brow with his hand and whispered: "The King of Qin and the King of Han teamed up to cause chaos. King Zhao stayed in the house peacefully, so he probably didn't get involved. He sent more than a dozen personal guards to protect King Zhao. 'Father and son."
Fortunately, there is finally someone who is safe.
However, among the three princes, King Zhao was the weakest. King Qin and King Han were not good enemies. This move was very menacing and wanted to kill the prince.
Yuan Hai said solemnly: "No matter what, we must hold on until reinforcements arrive."
The prince's eyes were dark, and there was a hint of bitterness in his voice: "Gu has been secretly guarding his father's funeral, and even brought four thousand elite soldiers to accompany him. Unexpectedly, these two wolf-hearted things, King Qin and King Han, couldn't wait to see my father's body before it was cold. Kill Gu Gu!"
Murderous aura flashed in Wang Zhang's eyes: "Surviate this night and settle accounts with the King of Qin and the King of Han!"
There is no need to talk about King Qin. He had killed King Yan a few years ago. If Shen You hadn't bravely protected the Lord, King Yan would have suffered a big loss that time. In the past few years, King Qin has been silent, and he doesn't know how much anger and hatred he is holding back. .
As for the King of Han, he had no direct enmity with the prince, it was mainly due to his failure in the fight for the heir apparent.
More than two years ago, the King of Han angered Emperor Long'an and was sent to the imperial mausoleum overnight. Wang Zhang and Yuan Hai each had their own speculations on whether the prince was behind this.
A gloom flashed in the prince's eyes: "What I'm worried about now is that something will happen in the palace."
The King of Qin was ruthless, and the King of Han was not a good person either. There was Concubine Cao in the harem... When he thought that the crown prince, grandson, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law might be in danger, the prince's heart felt like fried oil.
When Zhu Yun heard the prince's words, his handsome face turned pale.
Brother Dong and Sister Tang are also in the East Palace.
Wang Zhang cheered up and comforted the father and son: "There are five thousand imperial guards in the palace, and there are five hundred personal guards in the East Palace. No one can hurt the crown prince and grandson, let alone the little prince and princess!"
The point is there's no point in rushing.
We can only calm down and deal with the danger in front of us.
…
After dark, the palace doors were locked and the palace was peaceful.
At the third watch, something happened in the East Palace.
A servant who was serving the Crown Princess in the East Palace suddenly rushed into the Crown Princess's bedroom, took out a poisoned dagger from his arms and threw it.
Amidst the exclamations, a palace servant threw himself in front of the Crown Princess and blocked the knife with his own body. The poison was so violent that the palace servant died of the poison within a few breaths.
The assassin was stopped by two military envoys and died on the spot.
Feng Shaojun was suddenly awakened, got up and rushed out. Fortunately, she had slept with her clothes on, so she didn't have to fumble around to get dressed, and rushed to the princess's bedroom as quickly as possible.
The assassin had been killed, blood was everywhere, and the smell of blood was everywhere.
"Quick," the Crown Princess screamed loudly: "Go and see the Crown Princess and the child!"
The Crown Princess was pampered in fine clothes and fine food, just like a flower that had been carefully nurtured. She had never seen such a battle of open flames and bright knives. At this time, her mind was in a state of confusion, her eyes were full of horror, and her voice was so sharp that it could pierce the eardrums.
There were two bloody palace palace corpses in the dormitory, and the thick smell of blood hit their nostrils. Not to mention the delicate Crown Princess, all the palace palace residents were so frightened that they turned pale and shrieked.
Feng Shaojun's face was solemn, but his voice was calm: "Slave, go right now!"
