As Mrs. Cai ran all the way, Liu Zong was still in a state of confusion.
Why are you running away at night? I am the emperor! The queen mother said there is a rebellion? They are attacking the palace?
Oh my God! How is this possible!?
Aren’t there so many ministers? Aren’t there so many guards? Who dares to attack the palace?
"Mother! I, I can't run anymore! Let's take a rest.
Isn’t this palace good? How could anyone dare to attack the palace? Mother...have you been deceived?"
Looking at Liu Zong with a suspicious look on his face, Mrs. Cai was filled with various emotions.
This child, when he grows up, knows how to question, and he knows how to stop listening to others and have his own ideas.
But the question is! Do I have time for you to question now?
"Zong'er, hold on, we can leave the palace not far ahead."
Time was tight, and Mrs. Cai was unable to explain Liu Zong in detail.
As for why not let others carry Liu Zong on his back?
That's just because Mrs. Cai and Liu Zong are the only ones fleeing now.
Yes, it's the two of them.
If you bring many palace maids to Huangmen, wouldn't that tell the rebels that His Majesty is here?
As the daughter of a big family, Mrs. Cai is not so mean-spirited.
Under the current situation, fleeing for himself and Liu Zong is the safest option.
As for why Cai Mao, the head of the Cai family, is not here?
Are you kidding me, why didn't Cai Mao leave first and organize the thugs raised by the family to come to the rescue? Otherwise, if there were rebels on the way from the palace to Cai Mansion, who would be able to resist them?
"Mother! I won't leave, I can't even take a step!"
This palace is obviously safe and sound, why did the Queen Mother suddenly ask me to leave?"
Seeing that Mrs. Cai did not explain to him at all, but just insisted on leaving the palace quickly, the doubts in the heart of the young emperor Liu Zong became more and more profound.
In fact, Liu Zong even suspected his biological mother, Mrs. Cai.
"Zong'er!"
Looking at Liu Zong with a questioning look on his face, Mrs. Cai was heartbroken.
When did this child become like this?
I am your biological mother! Can I still harm you?
"Kill! Charge!"
"Qing Jun is on your side! The Cai family has conspired to rebel and kill the Cai family!"
Before Mrs. Cai could explain to the young emperor Liu Zong, the slogans of the rebel soldiers came first.
Listening to the constant noise not far away, shouting slogans to kill her, Mrs. Cai was shocked.
Oh my god! How did they get in so quickly?
"Queen mother!?"
Similarly, Liu Zong, who was having a quarrel, also heard the slogans of the rebels.
But this not only failed to answer his doubts, but made him even more doubtful than before?
What were those people shouting?
Is the Qing emperor on his side? The Cai family is plotting rebellion?
Although Liu Zong is uneducated, it does not mean that he cannot understand such simple words.
In an instant, all the control Mrs. Cai had on him in the past came to mind.
The curtains must be hung when going to court, and she is not allowed to play like a palace maid. She even makes herself learn those bullshit ways of being a king that give her a headache.
Liu Zong, who was deeply rebellious with his age, had many complaints against Mrs. Cai, and now he even heard that those rebels wanted to kill his mother instead of himself.
This further confirmed Liu Zong's suspicions.
It seems that this is not the rebellion of the ministers and Dukes as the queen mother said, but the Cai family is going to rebel!
They want to take me away from the palace? What do they want to do?
And there are no accompanying guards, so he must have some shady plan!
Since ancient times, the royal family has had no family ties.
Now Liu Zong confirmed what he was thinking, and instantly forgot about Mrs. Cai's love for children. In his mind, he only thought about the many controls Mrs. Cai had on him in the past, but he forgot who single-handedly brought him up and single-handedly controlled him.
Pushed to the throne.
"Mother! Out of gratitude for the many years of nurturing you, I will not stop my mother from escaping.
But don’t show up in front of me again!”
When Liu Zongzhi said this, Mrs. Cai, who was already frightened, felt as if a heavy hammer had hit her chest.
Looking at Liu Zong with a cold look on his face, Mrs. Cai couldn't believe it at all.
Is this the good son I have raised for twelve years?
How could he? How could he think so? How could he say such rude words?
As if her heart was torn apart by thousands of people, Mrs. Cai almost fell into madness.
However, the current situation did not allow her to educate her son and explain everything to the little emperor with a cold face in front of her.
"Fire the arrow! The one in front is the traitor Cai!"
Following the guidance of the palace maid, the rebel army went straight to pursue Mrs. Cai in the direction of her escape.
When they saw the beauty in palace attire, the leader immediately recognized that this was Liu Biao's little wife, Mrs. Cai!
As for Liu Zong? Because of the darkness, the rebels who were still some distance away really didn’t see His Majesty the Emperor of Jingzhou who was hidden by Mrs. Cai’s figure...
Because the order he received was to kill some members of the Cai clan, then this man in the palace was naturally the target to be killed.
Although it was a pity for the leader to shoot that extremely enchanting beauty, an order is an order!
The worst thing is, wait until she dies and touch a few to satisfy her cravings.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Following the leader's order, several sharp arrows flew out from the rebel army, aiming directly at Mrs. Cai, who was struggling with Liu Zong.
"ah!"
A scream came out, and everyone present was stunned.
Why? Why is this scream a male voice?
Looking at the young man lying next to Mrs. Cai, the leader of the rebel army broke out in cold sweat.
Damn it!? The wrong person was shot? Who was the one who was shot? Could it be His Majesty?
Isn't Mrs. Cai the only one? When was Your Majesty there?
Likewise, Mrs. Cai, who was beside Liu Zong, was also stunned.
Who would have thought that while he was arguing with Liu Zong, the rebel army had already arrived and even fired arrows without saying a word?
By chance, because he wanted to break away from Mrs. Cai, the young emperor Liu Zongzheng used brute force to twist his body around, becoming a shield for his mother and a target for the rebel army.
"Zong'er!"
Looking at Liu Zong who was pierced by random arrows, Mrs. Cai's heart was bleeding.
No matter how disobedient you are, no matter how much you doubt yourself.
However, that was also the son he raised with his own hands. It was the emperor who had devoted everything he and his family had to pushing him to this supreme position!
"Run! Leave him alone!"
By chance, Cai Hao, who had organized reinforcements, returned at this time, and he, who was not far away, naturally witnessed everything with his own eyes.
But now that Liu Zong is dead, he cannot continue to die, so the sad remembrance cannot be carried out at this juncture.
Without saying a word, he directly picked up the stunned younger sister, Mrs. Cai, and ran towards the back door occupied by his own soldiers.
As for the rebel army behind you?
Still in shock of killing the king with his own hands...
