Yan Xifeng was extremely happy when he saw the gold coins.
The queen said: "I order you to take over the royal city, stabilize order immediately, and then protect the palace!"
Yan Xifeng bowed and said: "The last general has received the decree!"
Yan Xifeng carried the box out of the middle palace and immediately ordered the imperial army to take over the palace and surrounded the palace. No one was allowed to enter or leave without authorization.
Middle palace.
Looking at Li Guangliang's head, the queen sat relaxedly on the phoenix chair.
After being nervous for so long, the dust has finally settled.
The queen was the final winner, while Li Guangliang and Shi Yuncheng were defeated by their subordinates.
"It's so dangerous this time."
Yuyao thought about it carefully, and realized that the queen was almost swallowed by people on both sides, but fortunately Long Chen's clever plan.
"Yes, if it weren't for Liu Feng's plan, I would probably..."
The queen asked: "Where is Liu Feng? Why haven't you come back after being gone for so long?"
Yuyao also felt strange. She had been there for a long time and there was no news.
"Is something going to happen?"
The queen said worriedly: "Go and have a look and take the imperial army with you!"
Yuyao took the order and personally led the imperial army to Concubine Li's palace.
The gate was closed, and there were still people from Jingzhao Mansion guarding it. Yuyao jumped on the palace wall and cursed at the people inside: "Li Guangliang has been beheaded, you still haven't surrendered!"
The Wuhou inside were all stubborn people and refused to listen at all. They yelled back: "You are the rebel!"
Yuyao was furious, jumped down from the palace wall, and rushed into Wuhou.
The palace door was knocked open, and the imperial troops rushed into the courtyard, quickly slaughtering Wu Hou.
When she rushed into the inner courtyard, Yuyao was surprised to see corpses all over the ground, and they were all killed with one move.
Yuyao felt very strange. Long Chen brought people to kill Concubine Li. Marquis Wu outside was fine, but why did the guards inside die instead?
Just now, Yu Yao thought that Long Chen went to Concubine Shu first and had not yet arrived at Concubine Li's palace. Now it seems that something is fishy.
Without any time to think about it, Yuyao quickly entered the bedroom and saw Concubine Li dead on the bed without any body parts, with a golden needle pierced between her eyebrows.
Yuyao recognized that this golden needle belonged to Long Chen.
"What's going on?" "What's going on?"
Yuyao was confused by the scene in front of her and didn't know what was going on.
"Auntie, why is this happening?"
The maid behind me also felt very strange.
Yuyao shook her head slightly and said, "I don't know either."
In any case, Concubine Li is dead.
"You two carry Concubine Li's body back to the palace and show it to the empress."
"Others, follow me and then go to Concubine Shu's place!"
Yuyao ordered a few people to carry Concubine Li's body back to the central palace, and the others followed to kill Concubine Shu's palace.
Concubine Shu's palace courtyard was not defended by soldiers, and Yu Yao easily rushed into the inner courtyard.
Entering the bedroom, a strange scene happened again. The maid in the outer courtyard was still there, but the inside was breached.
Concubine Shu's upper body clothes were gone and she died on the ground. The maids in the room huddled in the corner and did not dare to move.
"Who killed Concubine Shu?"
Yuyao mentioned a palace maid and asked.
The palace maid begged: "My aunt, please forgive me, my aunt, please forgive me, I am willing to submit to the queen, please forgive me..."
The other maids knelt down and kowtowed, begging for mercy.
Yuyao said angrily: "I asked you who did it!"
The palace maid cried: "Liu Feng, Liu Feng was killed on the order of the queen..."
As expected, it was Liu Feng who killed him, and Yu Yao was secretly surprised.
But how did he get in?
Likewise, the outer courtyard is fine, but the inner courtyard is dead.
Could it be that Liu Feng is a hidden master?
Why should he hide?
Yuyao left the palace maid behind and had random thoughts in her heart.
"Where's Willowwind?"
Yuyao asked the maid in the room, "Long Chen is neither with Concubine Li nor here. Where did that person go?"
The maid in the room shook her head slightly and said, "After he killed Concubine Shu, he left..." The maid in the room shook her head slightly and said, "After he killed Concubine Shu, he left..."
Gone?
Could it be that he returned to the palace to resume his life?
Yuyao couldn't figure it out, so she ordered: "Carry Concubine Shu's body back to the middle palace!"
The men took action and carried Concubine Shu's body back to the middle palace.
Returning to the main hall, Concubine Li's body was already on the ground.
"Empress, the traitor Li Yan, Huadie is dead!"
Concubine Shu's name is Huadie.
The queen nodded slightly, couldn't help but look behind Yuyao, and asked, "Where is Liu Feng?"
Yuyao shook her head slightly and said, "I didn't see it."
The queen was surprised and said: "What do you mean you didn't see it?"
Yuyao replied: "My servants led the people to Concubine Li's palace first. Marquis Wu was guarding the outer courtyard. All the people in the inner courtyard were killed. Concubine Li died on the bed."
"Similarly, it is the same in Concubine Shu's palace. There is nothing wrong in the outer courtyard, but Concubine Shu died in the inner courtyard. According to what the palace maid said, Concubine Shu was indeed killed by Liu Feng."
The queen was stunned and asked: "So... where is Liu Feng?"
Yuyao shook her head slightly and said: "I don't know where to go..."
The queen was stunned...
For her, Liu Feng, the young imperial doctor, was the person she cared about the most, except for Shi Haoran.
"Missed? Find him quickly, he may have been plotted by an assassin!"
The queen stood up anxiously, she was worried that Long Chen would be assassinated by a bat.
Yuyao was also worried about this possibility and immediately said: "I obey my orders!"
Yuyao was about to take people out to look for her, but the queen suddenly said: "No, you take people to Liu Mansion to see if Liu Feng has gone home."
Yuyao immediately bowed and said: "I accept the decree!"
Others were searching the palace, while the queen waited anxiously in the main hall.
Liu Mansion.
When Long Chen returned to the house, the male servant immediately came over and said, "Sir, everything is packed!"
Long Chen nodded and said: "Get ready to go."
The male servant immediately summoned other people and prepared to leave Liu Mansion. The male servant immediately summoned other people and prepared to leave Liu Mansion.
Long Chen entered the bedroom, Shui Yun was fully armed and looked very anxious.
"Xiao Feng, are you okay?"
Seeing Long Chen come in, Shui Yun immediately hugged Long Chen and carefully checked whether there were any wounds on his body.
"I'm fine."
Long Chen comforted him with a smile, and Shui Yun asked: "What's going on in the city? The shouts of killing outside are so loud. Is it because the Eastern Zhou Dynasty is attacking?"
Shui Yun had been worried about Long Chen's safety and wanted to find someone, but the male servant was ordered to stop Shui Yun from leaving.
Long Chen consoled him: "No, Jingzhao Mansion and the Forbidden Army are fighting."
Shuiyun was even more surprised and asked: "Why did the Jingzhao Mansion start a fight with the Imperial Army?"
Long Chen said: "It's very simple. When Concubine Li and Concubine Shu saw that the queen was seriously ill, they wanted to rebel and seize power. The queen fell out with them, so they started fighting."
"Okay, forget about this. I'm leaving here while the war is in chaos. Are you willing to come with me?"
Shuiyun was stunned for a moment, then said firmly: "Of course, I will go wherever you go, and everything has been packed."
Long Chen glanced at the box containing the copperware on the table and couldn't laugh or cry: "Shuiyun, we really don't need this thing."
"I just took advantage of the chaos and stole a lot of jewels from the queen. We won't be able to use them all in our lifetime."
Shuiyun shook his head and said, "As we live our lives, it's always good to have more things."
Long Chen said: "There are too many things and it's hard to walk. I only need soft stuff and don't need these."
Shuiyun thought about it, these copperwares were too heavy.
"Okay, let's go. Let's go quickly."
Long Chen came out with Shui Yun, and several carriages were ready.
Long Chen and Shui Yun rode horses, while the others rode in carriages.
After opening the gate of Liu Mansion, the carriage slowly drove out, took a small road out of the royal city, and walked eastward overnight.
After Long Chen left, a candle in the kitchen was placed in the pile of firewood, and the flame became lower and lower until the firewood was ignited, a fire broke out in the kitchen, other houses were ignited, and the entire Liu Mansion became a sea of fire.
When Yuyao led people on horseback to the gate of Liu Mansion, they saw a blazing fire in front of them.
