As the black light landed on the tower, the witch regained her graceful figure.
"No need to ask. If Jinsi comes back alone, then the rescue must have failed." Jingcheng said with a smile.
"I didn't expect that we would be so happy after failing. It's really unimaginable." Fan Hua laughed.
"Jinsi, please tell Brother Ming the news quickly and bring three masters to protect the princess." Jinglan immediately made arrangements.
"I got it." The witch nodded, waved her hand and asked the three masters to follow her, and rushed straight towards the long street...
"What should we do next? Brother Ming, did you tell me?" Lonely Ruyan asked.
"Our mission is to guard here. The Second Prince and others will definitely flee in a while. Then we will defend the city and let General Qingfeng lead his people to deal with these rebels." Jinglan said with a smile.
"What about the palace?" Jingcheng asked.
"Don't worry about this. Brother Ming has already made arrangements. When the time comes, the city gate on the palace side will naturally have NPC legions to help defend it. This explosion has left the second prince with no place to stay in the palace!" Jinglan said with a smile.
.
"Brother's arrangement is indeed clever. I wouldn't have been able to come up with so many tricks..." Dynasty Langxue shook his head and said speechlessly.
He is very happy now that he chose them as allies instead of his enemies...
While the players on the city tower were waiting for the follow-up situation, the situation in the entire palace had begun to change dramatically!
On the criss-crossing streets of the palace, there were originally only rebels stationed, but at this time, waves of neat footsteps sounded from all directions, and neat soldiers lined up in three lines, constantly appearing under the leadership of the leading officer, rushing past quickly.
Street after street.
These tens of thousands of soldiers were divided into two parts in the middle area of the imperial city. One part of nearly 20,000 soldiers set off in the direction of the Princess Palace, and the other group of tens of thousands of soldiers quickly rushed to the Prince's Palace after the explosion, all the way to the back gate of the palace.
, and quickly took over the tower there.
Some soldiers even went directly to the palace to report what happened directly to the emperor.
The second prince was standing at the gate of the palace, waiting for the latest situation. After a while, he saw officers riding war cavalry, rushing towards him from all directions, and they looked extremely panicked.
"Sorry, Your Highness, the general was ordered to take your token to mobilize troops, but it turned out that those generals were not at their base!"
"Your Highness...those generals led their soldiers to the Prince's Mansion and the Princess' Mansion. You don't know what they are going to do?"
"Your Highness, there is a general who directly rejected your order. If the general hadn't run fast, he almost killed him with one sword!"
…
Countless officers jumped off their cavalry, knelt in front of the second prince one by one, and nervously reported everything that had just happened.
"What's going on? Why don't they obey my order?" The second prince was stunned.
"They seem to have known about His Highness's plot and are now guarding the back gate of the palace. Some even went to protect the Princess." An officer said quickly out of breath.
"What...how did they know about my king's plan?" The second prince had a shocked expression on his face.
"Not only did they know that His Highness wanted to seize the throne, but they even suspected that His Highness was responsible for the explosion in the Prince's Mansion and the death of the Prince." Another officer lowered his head and said in horror.
"Impossible! How did they know that this king planned so carefully?" The second prince was so frightened that he took a few steps back, his heart filled with panic!
He knew very well that if the plan to murder the prince was known to the generals, the situation would be very dangerous...
"It's not good, Your Highness..." Another group of warriors rushed towards them from afar. Before anyone arrived, panicked voices were heard.
"Tell me, what's going on?" The second prince watched in surprise as the officer jumped off his mount and knelt in front of him while crawling and rolling.
"Those generals blocked the passage to the palace and killed our captain who was stationed at the rear city gate. They also sent people to the palace to report the situation to His Majesty. It is said that they wanted to tell His Majesty that His Highness the Second Prince would not hesitate to collude in order to usurp the throne.
Demons and kill His Highness the Crown Prince!" the officer said with a pale face.
"Ah...how could this happen?" The second prince finally couldn't hold on any longer and sat down on the ground...
"Your Highness, all the prince's confidants in the palace have gathered at the back city gate, and there are 20,000 soldiers from the princess's palace to rescue. We have no chance. Let's escape quickly." A golden-armored general said helplessly.
"Who said I was completely defeated? Even without the help of the army, I still have allies!" The second prince stood up and looked back at the top of the high imperial city. It seemed that there was still a last glimmer of hope.
"But the allies agreed at the beginning that we will be responsible for the affairs in the palace. They only deal with the temple gods. Now we are counting on them..." The second prince's eyes straightened and he said blankly.
"But Your Highness, we have less than 20,000 troops in the palace, and the opponent's force is several times our strength. If we don't think of a way, it will be difficult for me to even get out!" the golden-armored generals said anxiously.
"Forget it, send a message and ask allies to come help quickly!" the second prince waved his hand and ordered.
Chirp!
A brilliant firelight shot straight into the sky in the palace, and then suddenly exploded in mid-air, leaving a brilliant golden firework that lingered for a long time.
Looking at the strange fireworks appearing in the sky, Li Ming frowned. It seemed that there was no signal transmission from his side. Who was sending the message?
"What is going on?" Princess Ning Xin looked at the sky and asked in confusion.
"If this is not our signal, then the second prince knows that the situation is not good and seems to be asking for reinforcements... But where will their reinforcements be?" Li Ming frowned and thought, suddenly his eyes lit up and he couldn't help but look towards the top of the imperial city.
…
All the current situations are under his control. The entire palace is blocked from front to back, and the second prince is like a turtle in a urn. It is almost impossible to try any tricks.
But he knew that the second prince dared to start the plan with such confidence this time because of the secret support of the demons.
He must have done this to ask for help from his demon allies!
"Your Highness Princess, we can't stay here any longer. We must go to the palace to help quickly, otherwise Your Majesty will also be in danger!" Li Ming said.
"Father is also in danger! Didn't you say that as long as the palace is blocked, the second emperor brother will not be able to enter the palace?" Princess Ning Xin asked in horror.
"It's not the second prince who wants to enter the palace now, but the hidden demon allies..." Li Ming told her his guess.
"No, I have to save my father!" Princess Ning Xin shouted in surprise.
At this moment, a maid who was guarding the back door rushed back, looked at the two of them in surprise, and pointed excitedly in the direction of the backyard, seeming to be particularly excited.
"Your Highness, reinforcements have arrived, and all the rebels surrounding the princess's residence have been driven away!" the maid said excitedly.
"Let's go out and take a look." Princess Ning Xin rushed towards the back door anxiously...
