At this time, in Chaoyun Palace, Chun Ya came in from the outside with a frightened face.
"Queen Mother, what should I do?" When Chun Ya threw herself in front of Mu Qingchao, her face was already full of tears.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, he is dying..."
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Mu Qingchao inside the room heard Chun Ya's words but had not yet reacted.
"What do you mean when things are going well but they are no longer good?"
"It's true." Chun Ya burst into tears: "When I went out just now, I heard the guards guarding the city outside chatting."
"They said that the three signal flares just now were the prince's distress signal. There are thousands of troops outside, but your majesty will not open the city gate no matter what. No matter how brave the prince is, I am afraid he will not survive until noon."
"Shen Muchi...won't open the city gate?"
Is he really crazy?
The battle between the two armies is now at a critical moment. Doesn't he know what losing a river bank means to Nanming?
Mu Qingchao's hands couldn't help but tremble.
After rebirth, many things have changed and have developed in an uncontrollable direction.
She originally thought that the cunning rabbit was not dead and the good bow was not hidden.
The last thing she expected was Shen Muchi.
What on earth was he thinking?
In the past, she knew that he was dangerous, that he was a man who would kill his father, brother, and poison his own children for the sake of power.
But she felt it was still controllable because she understood his intentions and his desire for power.
But now, she really can't understand him more and more...
"Let's go out and take a look." It was too late to hesitate. Before he could sort out the many clues, Mu Qingchao had already stood up and walked out of the hall.
"Queen Mother..."
Chunya and Qiangwei followed behind.
"Where is the Queen Mother going? There are no swords and eyes there, I'm afraid..."
Chun Ya chased after her, and it could be seen that before Mu Qingchao walked out of Chaoyun Palace, two knives were already blocked in front of her.
"Your Majesty has ordered that the Queen Mother is not allowed to leave Chaoyun Palace."
Sure enough, Shen Muchi was afraid that she wouldn't be able to tell her anything, so she never kept her servants in check.
But she would never be allowed to leave Chaoyun Palace even half a step.
But when Mu Qingchao looked at the sword in front of him, he didn't see any movement. He glanced at the guard in front of him with a stern look.
"Get out of the way." Her tone was cold.
With the absolute majesty of a superior.
"Queen Mother, Your Majesty has an order, please don't embarrass your subordinates."
"Really? The Aijia is trying to make things difficult for you today. What will you do to the Aijia?"
One sentence made all the guards present startled.
They guarded the Chaoyun Palace for several days, only to realize that the Queen Mother was a soft-tempered person who stayed in her room and did not compete with outsiders.
They had always thought that this job was very easy, but they did not expect that the Queen Mother would be so ruthless when she was tough.
Mu Qingchao's face was expressionless and he didn't even look at them.
Do they think she didn't go out because she was afraid of the knives in their hands?
She just felt there was no need and was too lazy to argue.
But today...
She said: "The Aijia must leave today. Either you let the Aijia go out on their own, or you carry the Aijia out if they die under your sword."
In a word, not to mention the guards, even the maids behind her were shocked.
Everyone knows that the Queen Mother is not joking.
Seeing that they were indifferent, Mu Qingchao raised her feet and walked out. The knife was held in front of her, but she didn't even hide, and directly hit the knife.
She didn't even blink, but she scared half of the guard's soul away.
"Queen Mother..."
The gatekeepers knelt down with a "pop" sound.
In the past, everyone might not have been able to tell, but now, no one knows that the person in Chaoyun Palace is an ancestor. Anyone in the harem can be offended, but this person cannot be offended.
There are three floors inside and three floors outside Chaoyun Palace. There are no less than a hundred guards surrounding them, and they are all kneeling on the ground.
"Please Queen Mother, please spare this subordinate..."
"Please Queen Mother, please spare this subordinate..."
Voices begging for mercy kept coming and going.
Anyone would be moved by such a pious and humble plea.
They are just small chess pieces, the most innocent and the most incapable of control. It is really not appropriate to embarrass them.
But...if you spare them, who will spare her?
How could she deserve it? How could Jiang Bo deserve it?
Mu Qingchao didn't even bother to raise his eyelids, picked up his skirt and ran out of the hall in large strides.
"Queen Mother..."
Seeing this, Chunya and Qiangwei hurriedly caught up.
The guards panicked at the time.
This... what should we do now?
Report to His Majesty?
But His Majesty is outside the palace...
The guards hesitated for a moment, and no one knew who said: "Why are you still standing there? Why don't you hurry up and give chase!"
Only one sentence made the guards wake up from their dreams, and they all got up and chased after him.
Mu Qingchao left Chaoyun Palace and ran rampant in the palace. Her purpose was very clear, to get out of the palace! She must get out of the palace.
There was a small dagger hidden in her sleeve, which struck her heart.
She has always been unafraid of losing everything.
Some of the concubines were a little stunned when they saw Mu Qingchao. It was the first time for those new concubines who entered the palace to see the legendary Queen Mother.
They all blessed themselves and saluted.
"I am here to see the Queen Mother..."
But Mu Qingchao ignored him and strode towards Li's main entrance.
A group of concubines were left cursing on the spot: "Bah! What is that? Shameless old whore, do you think your majesty looks at you twice and you become a figure?"
Just after he finished cursing, he saw a long line of guards chasing him again.
The guards did not dare to pursue her too close for fear of conflicting with the Queen Mother. If anything, they could not afford to suffer.
But I dare not not pursue it.
So in the eyes of the concubines, seeing such a strange scene, they just felt dumbfounded.
"Haha, if you live long enough, you can see everything."
There was only one person waiting under the palace wall, waving to her.
"Queen Mother!"
It's Xu Meiren.
"Why are you here?" Mu Qingchao saw that Xu Meiren's eyes were red, as if she had cried.
"Don't say anything." Xu Meiren said, stuffing a token into Mu Qingchao's hand: "Quickly, Queen Mother, leave the palace. With this token, they won't stop you. There's already a token outside the palace."
A carriage is waiting.
It’s my concubine who is incompetent and can’t do anything to help the Queen Mother. Queen Mother, please hurry up and maybe you can see him one last time.”
Xu Meiren's few words made Mu Qingchao's heart tighten suddenly.
First, I was shocked that Xu Meiren's thoughts were really meticulous. After staying by her side for such a long time, she already knew everything.
The second is the sentence "see him for the last time".
Is Jiang Bo really... bad?
Mu Qingchao's heart ached like crazy when he thought of this possibility.
She forced herself to retain some sense and said to Xu Meiren: "Thank you."
Xu Meiren shook her head: "Queen Mother, you shouldn't say thank you to me, I am sorry for you."
As she said this, she suddenly stepped forward and hugged Mu Qingchao, and she couldn't help but shed tears.
