Time passed quickly. Outside the palace gate, all the soldiers of General Qingfeng were neatly arranged on the stone mountain path, which stretched to the end of the mountain path halfway up the mountain...
A large number of players are waiting on the platform, waiting for instructions from the guild leaders at any time.
On the city wall, Lonely Ruyan and Fan Hua, together with a group of teammates, were also waiting for new mission orders at any time.
At this time, in the princess's mansion, Princess Ning Xin and Li Ming returned to the backyard. All the maids were sent out to deliver the message, leaving only hundreds of female soldiers standing in formation at the door of the backyard.
Li Ming kept looking at the time, waiting anxiously in his heart. Jinglan and the Witch should be arriving soon, right?
At this moment, a black light suddenly fell from the sky, and the witch appeared beside him alone...
"I'm back. I put your people on the tower. They asked me to come and see if you can help." The witch said with a smile.
"You came at the right time. Are the two masters here?" Li Ming asked in surprise. He had been paying attention to the return of the witch.
"They are all at the city wall to help with the defense." The witch nodded.
"Very good, now I need your help again. Take the two elders and rush to the Prince's Mansion. If there is hope, please try to rescue His Royal Highness when the Prince's Mansion explodes, and then bring him to the Princess Mansion." Li Ming quickly arranged.
.
"Understood, I'll be there right away." The witch nodded, and her graceful figure turned into a ball of black smoke, flew directly into the sky and disappeared.
"You want to help me rescue the Crown Prince?" Princess Ning Xin's beautiful eyes lit up when she heard this.
"Let's try our best to rescue the prince. I'm not sure whether I can rescue him or not." Li Ming smiled faintly, but secretly sent a private message...
"That's great, as long as the prince and brother are fine, if something happens to him, our Destiny Empire will have no candidate for the crown prince..." Princess Ning Xin let out a sigh of relief.
Li Ming didn't speak at the side, but he and Jing Lan were having a secret private chat...
He knew in his heart that the existence of the prince was a very important thing to him, but the situation was exactly the opposite of what the princess said. No matter what the purpose was, in his heart he wished that the prince would be blown up directly by the second prince...
Because as soon as Her Royal Highness the Crown Prince dies, the entire palace will be in complete chaos. General Qingfeng also gets an excuse to directly send troops. The secret letter just sent out just proves what Her Royal Highness the Princess said, so that those generals who obey the Crown Prince's orders
We immediately understood the second prince’s conspiracy.
In this way, the entire palace city can completely turn around and give the princess an absolute advantage.
As long as His Royal Highness is still alive, there will be too many unknown factors in the entire palace. Even if the rebellion of the second prince is suppressed, Li Ming cannot judge what the final outcome will be.
The prince had no friendship with him, but Princess Ning Xin had more contact with him. Li Ming had a special plan in mind for a long time, but he had never been able to confirm it.
The situation he was facing now made him eager to try. He wanted to see what would happen in the end if he followed this plan...
Whoosh!
Black light fell from the sky, and after the witch left the princess's mansion, she quickly returned to the top of the city tower.
The two old men, the Warcraft Pixiu, and a group of players were standing on the tower, carefully observing the situation ahead.
Perhaps the power of the saltpeter mine was too powerful. Since the last time the rebels retreated, they have not launched an attack again. They have only sent a large number of soldiers to guard the street entrance from a distance, guarding the situation in the direction of the city tower.
"My master has ordered me to take them to the Prince's Mansion to rescue His Royal Highness." As soon as the witch appeared, she informed everyone of Li Ming's request.
"Since your Majesty has an order, the two of us must obey it." Gu Huai nodded and said.
"I'm also trying to settle a score with the second prince..." Warcraft Pixiu said bitterly.
"Wait a minute..." Jing Lan had just finished chatting privately with Li Ming. Hearing that the four NPC masters were preparing to take immediate action, he quickly spoke.
"Do you have anything else to do?" the witch asked puzzledly.
"Just now your master has secretly ordered me to convey new instructions to you." Jinglan said with a smile.
"New order? What's going on? Why didn't he tell me?" The witch looked surprised.
"Jinsi, you and he made an agreement to help you obtain a pardon from the Destiny Empire, so that you can stay here safely without returning to the Chaos Empire. Is this true?" Jinglan asked.
"This is the agreement between me and him, how do you know?" the witch asked in surprise.
"He was worried that you wouldn't believe what I said, so he told me this..." Jinglan said with a smile.
"Okay, I believe you. Tell me, what new instructions does he have?" the witch nodded and asked.
"His order just now was for you to go to the Prince's Mansion and try to rescue His Highness, right?" Jinglan said.
"Yes, he wants us to try our best to rescue His Royal Highness when the explosion occurs." The witch replied.
"However, there are some changes in the new order. You can continue to go to the Prince's Mansion, but as long as you hide nearby, there is no need to rescue His Highness the Prince." Jinglan said sternly.
"What...what is going on?" The witch and a group of players were stunned.
"What is Brother Ming doing? Why did he give two different orders?" Fan Hua asked in confusion.
"Yes, rescuing His Highness the Crown Prince will solve the second prince's conspiracy. Why not save him?" Avril also sounded extremely confused.
"I think it's because Brother understands what happened and made such a decision..." Tian Xinhong said with a frown.
"What's going on? Even the prince can't be saved?" Zan Yue Mulan asked in confusion.
"You don't know this. Now I have a close relationship with Her Royal Highness. This mission is almost all strategizing with Her Royal Highness. If Her Royal Highness is rescued, the conspiracy of the second prince can indeed be solved. But in fact, if we don't save him, maybe
We will get more benefits..." Since hearing Jinglan's words, Dynasty Langxue has been squinting his eyes and thinking about the key. At this time, he seemed to have thought of something, and a smile like an old fox suddenly appeared on his face...
"Uncle Wolf, have you guessed anything?" Jingcheng asked curiously.
"Yes, Uncle Lang, if you guess something, please tell me immediately so that we don't have to guess blindly." Kelp said anxiously.
"Actually, I should have told Sister Jinglan about the situation. I am afraid that not saving the prince is my decision to help the princess ascend to the throne. This will be more beneficial to us." The old fox said with a smile.
"Uncle Lang guessed it right. Brother Ming did say that. Now that the emperor is seriously ill, if this rebellion occurs, the old emperor probably won't be able to hold on for long. Besides the crown prince, the second prince is the one who holds the throne.
He is the most qualified to inherit. But now that the second prince has conspired to cause chaos, he has lost the qualification to continue to inherit the throne. As long as the prince dies, only the princess will be left in the end... Who is more beneficial to us, the prince or the princess, becoming emperor? "Surprised?
Lan said with a smile.
"Ah...Brother Ming actually thinks so?" Fan Hua's eyes widened in shock.
Everyone was surprised. They didn't expect Li Ming to come up with such a plan...
