Chapter 2407: Killing the Chicken to Frighten the Monkey

Shao Yunduan ordered Liqiu, Caiyue and others to select palace maids and eunuchs, and arranged for an inspection of staff in various parts of the palace. When they heard that the Fourth Prince did not leave, they and Qiao Xuan were very surprised.

"Husband, if that's the case, let's go and take a look!"

"Walk!"

The Fourth Prince did not leave, so he was naturally waiting for Shao Yunduan. They also wanted to hear what the Fourth Prince and his gang would say.

When the guards in the Palace of Heavenly Purity saw Shao Yunduan, Qiao Xuan and their group coming, and heard Meng Wanfu and the others address them, they knew that the real masters were coming, and they immediately became nervous, with swords drawn, bows drawn, and eager eyes. Some people hurriedly turned around and ran back to report.

Meng Wanfu, Yang Mu and others sneered and shouted, and drew their weapons to confront each other. The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan looked at each other and were about to speak when they saw an elderly eunuch stumbling out from inside and shouting, "What do you want to do! Put down your weapons! Shao, Shao Sir, the emperor wants to see you, please come in."

When they heard that Shao Yunduan was coming, the Fourth Prince and his confidants were all furious and cursed, and the Queen Mother and the Empress were even more hateful.

The Fourth Prince's original words were: "Tell that traitor to come in and see me! I want to see what that traitor has to say! How has the Great Qin done him wrong to allow him to do such a treasonous act of betraying the monarch!"

Meng Wanfu swept his gloomy eyes over the other guards and said coldly: "Since our master is here, of course he wants to see the Fourth Prince. All of you irrelevant people, get out!"

These people can still stay in the Palace of Heavenly Purity at this time, they must be the loyal followers of the Fourth Prince. I am not afraid of them coming openly, but I am afraid that there are people lurking in the dark, and if they suddenly shoot an arrow from somewhere, it will be troublesome.

If Shao Yunduan wanted to meet the Fourth Prince, he naturally had to clear out these people first.

The Fourth Prince's guards were all furious when they heard Meng Wanfu being so rude.

“Bold!”

"presumptuous!"

"How dare you be disrespectful to the Emperor!"

Shao Yunduan would not joke with his own life, nor would he let Qiao Xuan take risks. He said coldly, "General Meng, General Yang, you clean up the Qianqing Palace. Anyone who does not actively cooperate will be killed without mercy!"

"Yes, sir!"

Meng Wanfu and Yang Mu answered loudly. They waved their hands and countless soldiers rushed up. Sharp arrows were like a forest, surrounding everyone in the Palace of Heavenly Purity, and the killing intent was approaching silently.

The guards in the Qianqing Palace were pale, their hearts were pounding, and beads of sweat the size of beans were oozing out of their foreheads.

Meng Wanfu and his men are different from others, they are all warriors who have experienced brutal fighting on the battlefield and baptism of iron and blood. When their weapons are unsheathed and their aura is fully unleashed, how can they compare to the royal guards in the palace who live a life of luxury and may not even have a real fight in a year?

If it weren't for the fact that they were willing to stay and fight with their master in the face of a powerful enemy, and that they still had some courage, Meng Wanfu would have ordered a volley of arrows to be fired long ago.

A coward, or a hostile coward, what's the point of keeping him?

Meng Wanfu's eyes swept across the guards on the opposite side like sharp arrows, and he said coldly: "Put down your weapons and retreat, otherwise, you will die!"

No one moved.

Yang Mu sneered: "I will shoot the arrow when I count to three! One, two, three!"

Just as he finished speaking, someone's sword fell to the ground with a clang, and then more weapons fell to the ground. The guards lowered their heads in guilt and shame and slowly left the Qianqing Palace.
