The eunuch who had come to report the news witnessed this bloody scene with his own eyes and stammered, "Princess...Princess, how are we going to deal with the mutiny outside the capital..."
Yan Miaoling stood with her hands behind her back, looking extremely calm.
With a slight curl of his lips, he said, "Ye Xiao, go and personally convey this imperial decree to the three military camps. Anyone who takes advantage of this opportunity to cause trouble or rebel against the emperor must lay down their weapons and surrender now, and I will forgive them. Otherwise, if I come in person, it won't just be them who die..."
The words were light and airy, but none of the remaining Imperial Guards dared to disregard them. Their hearts were in their throats. Fortunately, they had resisted the temptation and didn't join the group on the ground.
Night Owl's eyes lit up and he cupped his hands, "Yes!"
The Imperial Guards were not organized in the same way as the battalions outside the capital, but they were all from the garrisons. No one was much superior to the other, so the arrival of the Night Owl had a certain deterrent effect on the internal strife, but it did not solve the fundamental problem.
Those who were supposed to cause trouble just stood there with their necks stiff and remained silent.
There is no turning back on the road to death.
Especially Pang Chong, a rough-hewn mid-level general in the Fifth Army Camp. He just laughed contemptuously, "Haha, Ye Xiao, you're the eldest princess's dog. To put it nicely, you're a guard, to put it bluntly, you're just a woman's servant, hahaha..."
The group of people around him burst into laughter, all wanting to see Ye Xiao's face change slightly and his embarrassing self-humiliation.
But who is Night Owl?
It's not that he's shameless; he just doesn't want to follow the rules. He's not ashamed of it, but proud of it. "Haha, so what? I'm willing to be the eldest princess's servant, a spoiled male favorite. I don't know how delicious this soft rice is. I've only been in the palace for a short time, and you've become the third-rank commander of the Imperial Guard. And you, you've been in the Fifth Army Camp for over ten years. First, you're not diligent, and second, you haven't made any contribution to the border war. You've been able to get a high position in the army thanks to my connections. You've been eating so much that you're bloated and fat. I can kill you with just one finger, and you still dare to shout in front of me! Come on, beat him up and help him lose weight!"
These words and actions stunned the soldiers and generals who were keeping neutral and watching the fun.
What?
Are there really men who don't mind eating women's food? Are there really men who don't mind a woman becoming emperor?
They do mind anyway.
I just don't dare say it out loud.
Also, what did Ye Xiao say? Did he order his brothers to beat someone up? Pang Chong is a fourth-rank general after all, so you can just beat him up if you want...
Besides, there are quite a few people who support Pang Chong. How could they just wait to be beaten?
Soon, the two groups joined together.
When Yan Miaoling changed into red armor and rode up on horseback, she saw this scene, the fighting was so intense that smoke was rising. She held her forehead...
Night Owl, are you a bandit?
Wang Chen, the commander of the Fifth Army Battalion, was the first to spot her. Seeing a woman in armor was quite stunning, and he paused for a moment before stepping forward, kneeling on one knee and bowing. "I didn't know the princess was coming. I hope you'll forgive me for not welcoming you." Regardless, she was the emperor's acknowledged successor, and after tomorrow, she would be the new emperor.
He is a wise man, so we must not follow him and act foolishly or show any disrespect.
Yan Miaoling had long seen through his experience and smoothness. She spoke in a low voice, with a sense of authority without anger. "Wang Chen, as the commander of the Fifth Army Battalion, is this how you manage your troops? You allow your subordinates to act like scoundrels, spread rumors, and cause trouble, thus insubordinate?"
Wang Chen hadn't expected the young girl to have such a powerful aura despite her age. She had arrived, remained indifferent to the fighting, and was the first to point the finger at him...
His face showed embarrassment, and he answered without a single mistake, "Your Highness, Princess. When the incident first happened, I also tried to persuade them. But unfortunately, neither side listened to me. I tried to intervene and almost got myself hurt. That's why I sent someone to the palace again to inform Your Highness. I hope Your Highness can give me some advice..."
"Instructions?" Yan Miaoling smiled, her lips curled slightly. Her unpainted face was breathtakingly beautiful. She could have used her beauty to achieve a life of wealth and glory, but she chose to step out in front of others and compete with men...
Wang Chen felt emotional.
Unexpectedly, Yan Miaoling changed the subject and said, "Okay, then I will teach you how to deal with this situation if you encounter it again in the future. Night Owl, get out of the way!"
Ye Xiao was fighting vigorously when he noticed Yan Miaoling coming. He turned around and said, "Princess, trust me, it will be over soon!"
It was only a matter of time before the Imperial Guards emerged victorious. But the fact that he himself had some bruises on his face was rather comical. This unconventional, lawless, and careless approach made Yan Miaoling unbearable to watch.
"I said get out of the way!"
Ye Xiao didn't dare to continue fighting and immediately signaled his men to stop the fight.
Yan Miaoling rides on a white horse, wearing red armor and a white cloak, looking heroic and beautiful.
His eyes were fixed on the defeated rebels, one, two, three.
Very good. Within three seconds, no one came forward to kneel down and pay her respects, nor did they realize their mistake. They stiffened their necks, their eyes fierce, and Yan Miaoling wanted to say only two words to them: "Seeking death!"
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone saw her holding the reins with one hand and casually grabbing the air with the other...
Then a strong wind suddenly arose and the air fissioned.
A powerful wave of spiritual energy surged forward at such speed that Pang Chong and dozens of others had no time to react. They were swept up and lifted into the air. Then, in their terror, they were slammed to the ground.
Quiet, too quiet.
Hundreds of people were watching closely at the scene, but they couldn't even hear a single breath.
They were terrified!
Because all of Pang Chong and his men were thrown to death and embedded in the mud.
What does this mean? It means the princess is no delicate flower; she's a powerful warrior with inestimable strength. Just ask yourself, who in the world could slam someone into the dirt, leaving their brains splattered and bloody, without them even having time to scream?
