Chapter 127127 The Palace

Zhao Mingde immediately gathered his men and went to fight.

Li Fu sat on the horse, looking at the well-trained soldiers, and could hardly hold the reins.

The troops marched forward in unison with great momentum.

Zhao Mingde looked at Li Fu's departing back, and was silent for a long time before he said to the people around him: "In case of an emergency, prepare a carriage."

Zhao Qiujin was extremely confused.

Are you going to lose? Are you planning to escape?

Zhao Mingde glanced at the prince and Su Yan, "Keep a close eye on them, especially this woman. We may have to sacrifice her life in a moment."

Zhao Mingde was about to leave with a few imperial guards.

Su Yan spoke up again to stop him, "Where is Manager Zhao going?"

Zhao Mingde's face was gloomy. "You have delayed until now, you should be content. If you were not friends with that thief, do you think we would have spared your life?"

Su Yan smiled and said, "I don't want to delay time this time."

Zhao Mingde frowned, and the wrinkles on his face piled up together, making his eyes look even darker.

Su Yan said: "If you want to go find Lady Xu, forget it."

Zhao Mingde's eyes suddenly widened, "What did you say?!"

The prince was still shouting, "You dare to arrest me? I am the crown prince, I will ascend the throne tomorrow, I..."

"He never thought of letting you ascend the throne," Su Yan said, "Your Highness, don't you know what Steward Zhao has been waiting for?"

A cold wind blew past slowly, and the scene fell into complete silence.

Su Yan said firmly, "He is waiting for... the child."

The prince was stunned.

Su Yan said: "Even the little prince has come of age. None of the princes are easy to control. It is better to control the children. When the ruler is young and the country is in doubt, power will fall into the hands of the queen, the queen mother, or the powerful ministers. In the Zhou Dynasty, this power will only fall into the hands of Zhao Mingde."

The prince said, "But my father has been seriously ill for a long time, and none of his concubines are pregnant."

"So you have to wait, you have to make preparations in advance, you have to choose someone who has been favored by the emperor. If it is seven months, it can be said to be a premature baby, but it is not reasonable to say it is earlier. He has no choice but to wait. As soon as the little prince is born, he will kill you. The third prince is in poor health, and the fifth prince has no intention of taking the throne. He has the imperial guards in his hands, so he can still use the emperor to force the princes to hold on for a while. Maybe it can last for a long time, maybe not, but it is better than you taking the throne."

The prince gnashed his teeth and said, "Even if my father has visited her, how can I be pregnant? The harem has been childless for many years!"

Su Yan said: "It's just pregnancy, it doesn't mean it has to be the emperor's child."

Prince: “…”

Su Yan said as a matter of course: "He only needs a symbol, so why would he care whether your bloodline is pure or not? As long as it looks pure to outsiders, that's enough."

Zhao Mingde walked towards Su Yan, his voice low and sinister, "Your reaction is quick, but you don't look like you're attached to the world!"

Su Yan smiled and said, "Are you going to look for Concubine Xu now? You've gone too far. Concubine Xu hasn't given birth yet, so you shouldn't have sent anyone there anyway... You're actually going to force a cesarean section on the baby?"

Zhao Mingde shouted angrily, "How do you know?!"

Su Yan smiled and said, "It's too late for you to go now. The child is still in Concubine Xu's belly. She is with Zhai Zining. I told Zhai Zining that Concubine Xu is yours and asked her to take good care of her. I think she will do her best."

Zhao Mingde: “…”

The sound of horse hooves could be heard and a large group of people were approaching.

The leader was Shi Yangui. There was a very shallow scar on his face, and it was still bleeding.

The imperial guards gathered Zhao Mingde and protected him in the center. Zhao Mingde turned back suddenly, stared at Shi Yangui for a long time, and said loudly: "You are not Shi Yangui, you are Yun Xing! Shi Yangui has left the city! Don't be fooled by him! He is just a killer raised by our family! He has done all kinds of evil things!"

The soldiers were slightly startled and looked at Shi Yangui.

Su Yan immediately said: "How do you know that it wasn't Yun Xing who left the city? He just showed his face, it's the same."

"How could it be Yun Xing!" Zhao Mingde said, "The Hu people are invading, can Yun Xing lead troops to fight?! How can commanding a large army be compared with leading a few hundred or a few thousand people to fight a small battle?!"

Su Yan said: "Look carefully, is this Shi Yangui?"

Zhao Mingde looked at the man on the warhorse.

Perhaps it was because of the dim night, he could not see clearly.

Su Yan said: "If you can't see him clearly, there are people closer over here who can see him more clearly."

Su Yan pulled up the young eunuch next to him, took off his hat, and whispered, "You look pretty good in a eunuch costume."

Yun Xing walked forward and saluted as usual, "Manager Zhao."

Zhao Mingde was shocked and stepped back, "You, you..."

Why didn't he recognize it just now? !

Yun Xing said calmly, "Maybe the light is too dim and I can't see clearly. If you still want to..."

The imperial guards rushed forward, pointing their swords at Yun Xing.

Yunxing wiped off the rouge and powder bit by bit.

Su Yan's teaching was somewhat useful. He just painted some spots on his face. Zhao Mingde had never noticed him before and only recognized him now.

Shi Yangui pointed his gun at Zhao Mingde and said, "You are cornered, why don't you surrender?"

Zhao Mingde yelled hysterically: "You guys, why don't you kick them out!!"

Several leaders of the imperial guards looked at each other.

They first fought a fierce battle with the prince's troops, and then engaged in a melee with Shi Yangui's team. The strength of the people brought by Shi Yangui would only be stronger.

Now they are all exhausted.

Yan Fang paid attention to the expressions of the other people, and suddenly dismounted and knelt before Shi Yangui, "Welcome, General!"

The others were shocked and followed suit and dismounted.

Zhao Mingde was furious, "How dare you guys betray me?!"

He kept backing away, pulling Li Fu with him, "Go find Zi Ning! As long as the prince is in our hands, our family is legitimate!"

Yun Xing looked at Su Yan and said, "I'll go after him."

"No, he can't run away with them around."

"But if he finds Concubine Xu, it will be hard to tell what happened to this pregnancy. If it was really a live dissection..."

Su Yan raised his eyebrows, "Concubine Xu is not with Zhai Zining. I asked her to hide."

She would not tell the truth to Zhao Mingde who was still trying to fight to the death.

Shi Yan Gui dismounted and walked over. He knew that someone was following him. After Zhao Mingde's men reported the news, he controlled the man and then secretly returned to the city.

Su Yan said, "The Concubine De and the Emperor are both in Changle Palace. There is a seriously ill person guarding there. You should be careful. The Crown Prince said that the Emperor has passed away. I don't know if it's true or not. Please pay more attention."

The long night has just begun.
