After Yun Shang saw Su Ruji fall to the ground and died, she subconsciously reached out and touched her face, but there was no trace of her face. Yun Shang leaned down and smelled it gently, but did not hear any medicinal smell.
This time, it's the real Su Ruji.
Yun Shang raised her head and raised the corners of her mouth slightly. Su Qi suddenly panicked and took a few steps back, staring intently at Su Ruji's body, as if she had suddenly lost her backbone.
Yun Shang looked at Su Qi coldly. The Su family has favored her for more than two hundred years. In Su Qi's generation, Su Qi is probably a lot worse than the previous head of the Su family. She tried every means to send Su Ruji into the palace, but she just relied on
Only with the prestige and connections accumulated by the Su family in the court over the past hundred years could they manage to survive.
But Su Qi has a temperament that doesn't know how to restrain herself or recharge her batteries. She wants to be in the limelight in everything, but she's not tactful enough, which leads to many hidden dangers.
Su Ruji gradually gained a firm foothold in the harem, and was gradually able to help support the Su family, which was already on the decline. Xia Huanyu may not have ever thought of disturbing the Su family, but the Su family has been able to persist until now.
It may not have anything to do with Su Ruji's efforts in the harem.
Su Ruji's death heralded the end of the Su family, and Su Qi was naturally devastated.
"Come here, pull the traitor down." Xia Huanyu's voice was cold, and he never glanced at Su Ruji's body lying on the ground.
The imperial guards poured in from outside the palace, restrained Su Qi and pulled her out.
Yun Shang faintly heard the voice of a secret guard transmitting a message, and her eyebrows moved slightly. She raised her eyes and looked at Xia Huanyu and Queen Hua, and said with a smile: "My wife, go out and see how the situation is outside."
After Yun Shang finished speaking, he bowed and walked out of Tai Chi Hall.
Outside the Taiji Hall, the Imperial Guards had already been controlled. The Imperial Guards could be seen walking everywhere. When Yun Shang walked into a corner, a paper ball fell on the beam above his head. Yun Shang caught the paper ball and unfolded it.
Come on.
Yun Shang frowned slightly, and her eyes fell on the note, which only wrote a few words quietly: The Seventh Prince has arrived in Jincheng.
Yun Shang had previously guessed where the Seventh Prince would go after escaping. She thought he was going to the border to dispatch troops. But she didn't expect that he would return to Jincheng so quickly. Could it be that he hadn't planned to seize the throne?
?
But now that Luo Qingyan is the crown prince, even if the seventh prince returns to Jincheng, it will be difficult for him to change the world.
Yun Shang thought, then curled her lips, crumpled the paper ball, and put it into her long sleeves.
All the rebels have been arrested, and calm has gradually returned to the palace. The imperial guards are cleaning up the bodies of the murdered palace residents.
Yun Shang stood in the corridor for a while, feeling something in her heart. Although she was born in the palace and grew up in the palace. The palace is the most prosperous place in the world, and it is also the darkest place in the world. There are always calculations and plots here.
Killing. However, this was the first time Yun Shang had experienced the bloodshed caused by such a palace coup.
Yun Shang slowly closed her eyes, feeling a little sad.
Although she didn't like the palace where countless souls were buried like this, she was destined to stay in this palace in this life. Because the person she loved was there, and her relatives were there.
Yun Shang noticed the sound of footsteps approaching, so she opened her eyes. She didn't need to look back, Yun Shang knew who was coming.
"The Seventh Prince has returned to Jincheng." Yun Shang said softly, "This killing is far from over."
The person next to her took her into his arms and said in a gentle voice, "It doesn't matter. As long as we are all here, there is nothing we can't do in this world."
Yun Shang raised the corners of her mouth when she heard this and nodded.
But then I heard Luo Qingyan's voice rang softly, full of seriousness, "Chang'er, no matter what happens in the future, no matter how desperate or sad you are, you must always remember that I will always be by your side.
He is someone who will walk through life with you hand in hand."
Yun Shang didn't know why Luo Qingyan said these words, but she nodded in agreement.
However, Luo Qingyan seemed to still be dissatisfied, so he reached out and turned Yun Shang to face him, and said softly: "Promise me, no matter what happens, you must believe in me unconditionally. Believe that with me, everything will be okay."
That’ll be fine.”
Yun Shang was dumbfounded by his seriousness. She nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, I promise you, I will always believe in you..."
Luo Qingyan was satisfied then, smiled and reached out to hold Yun Shang's hand.
Just as he was saying this, he saw a guard hurried towards the Tai Chi Palace. Luo Qingyan frowned and reached out to stop the guard: "But what happened?"
The imperial guard responded quickly: "Your Majesty, the Seventh Prince has entered the palace with many guards."
Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan couldn't help but look at each other and said quickly: "What's going on? How many people are here in total?"
Yun Shang couldn't help but think in her heart, although some of the imperial guards had different intentions and were instigated by Su Qi before, but failed to achieve anything, why did they enter the palace with the seventh prince now? Could it be that they wanted to rebel, but the seventh prince
If the prince wants to rebel, there is no way he can only bring three or four hundred people with him.
"Looking at about three to four hundred people, the Seventh Prince rode to the front, and seemed to be escorting several people behind him." The imperial guard reported with cupped hands.
Luo Qingyan was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Let's go take a look."
Yun Shang followed Luo Qingyan to the entrance of the main hall of Taiji Palace. She only stood at the entrance of the main hall for a while, and then she saw the seventh prince riding a horse and leading a group of imperial guards into the palace gate.
From a distance, it was difficult to see clearly what was going on in the team. Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan stood on the long stone steps. When the seventh prince reached the bottom of the stone steps, he got off his horse and led the guards away.
Come up.
When the Seventh Prince was more than half way there, Yun Shang saw many of the Imperial Guards being tied up with ropes. The Imperial Guards were leading them up step by step with long guns.
The seventh prince walked to the waiters who were five or six stone steps away from Luo Qingyan and the others, stopped, raised his head and looked at Luo Qingyan and Yun Shang, smiled gently, leaned down and knelt down:
"My brother pays homage to His Highness the Crown Prince."
This set of etiquette is very thorough, and the smile is also very warm. It seems that in Lingxi City, the matter of him being imprisoned by Luo Qingyan and Yun Shang through a trick no longer exists.
Yun Shang looked at his feet, which seemed to be slightly lame. She looked at his feet intently, but the seventh prince smiled and said softly: "My brother caught a cold in his feet when he was in Lingxi, and now his legs and feet are a bit a little bit...
It’s unfavorable, I hope His Highness the Crown Prince will not blame you.”
After a pause, he asked softly: "I wonder where my father, the Queen, and my mother are? My brother wants to report again."
Yun Shang sneered at the doctor. The Seventh Prince knew how to assess the situation. Whether it was Su Ruji before or the current Empress Hua, he screamed happily every time.
Luo Qingyan glanced at him lightly and then said softly: "In the palace."
The Seventh Prince laughed quickly: "That's great." After saying that, he turned around and ordered the guards behind him, "Come here, escort these traitors into the palace."
Luo Qingyan frowned slightly and then said: "The Taiji Palace is now guarded by the imperial guards. Although these people are imperial guards, I suggest that if you want to escort these people into the palace, you should hand them over to the imperial guards.
"
The Seventh Prince didn't care at all, he smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll bother my brothers in the Royal Forest Army."
Luo Qingyan ordered the imperial guards to take over the people from the guards, and then followed the seventh prince into the Tai Chi Palace.
Xia Huanyu was talking to Queen Hua, holding his hand on Queen Hua's shoulder, with a gentle look in his eyes. As if he heard the sound, he and Queen Hua turned their heads together, and were slightly stunned when they saw the Seventh Prince.
Stunned, he looked at Luo Qingyan.
Before Luo Qingyan could say anything, the seventh prince had already knelt down on the ground like a doctor: "My son, I pay my respects to my father, my father is safe and sound, and I pay my respects to my mother and my queen."
Empress Hua was also slightly startled, but she just glanced at the Seventh Prince quietly, and then looked away calmly.
Xia Huanyu, on the other hand, seemed a little nervous. He kept checking Queen Hua's reaction from the corner of his eyes. Seeing that Queen Hua was not born, he turned to look at the Seventh Prince, and his voice sounded a bit cold: "Get down."
His eyes fell on the tightly tied people behind the Seventh Prince, and he frowned again, "What's going on? Aren't these the commanders of the Imperial Guard?"
The seventh prince hurriedly walked out and responded softly: "Reporting to my father, that's right. As soon as I entered Jincheng, I heard about Su Taiwei's rebellion and saw Su Ruhai hurriedly went to the Imperial Guard. I secretly thought
Su Ruhai became suspicious and secretly ordered someone to follow Su Ruhai. When they got to the imperial guards, they discovered that Su Ruhai actually wanted to mobilize the imperial guards to invade the palace without authorization, and cooperate with the rebel Su Qi to seize the palace.
"
"When my son saw this, he arrested Su Ruhai, and then tied up several guards commanders who met Su Ruhai." The seventh prince said softly.
"Su Ruhai?" Xia Huanyu glanced at the people in the palace, and found a man among the guards commanders who had always lowered his head and was wearing a guard uniform.
The Seventh Prince had already walked up to the man, reached out and pinched his chin, then lifted his head up. It was indeed Su Ruhai.
Yun Shang couldn't help but laugh when she saw this. It was interesting. Su Ruhai and the Seventh Prince were at odds when they were in Lingxi City. Su Ruhai also secretly led the Seventh Prince's army. Now the Seventh Prince has returned to Jincheng to do what he wants.
The first thing he did was to escort Su Ruhai in front of Xia Huanyu to claim credit.
Although this credit was not originally his.
Luo Qingyan had already ordered people to lurk in the Imperial Guards. As soon as Su Ruhai entered the Imperial Guards, he was discovered by the secret guards. Then the secret guards took the dispatch order from Su Ruhai, thus avoiding a disaster.
I don’t know when this credit became the seventh prince’s. (To be continued)
