Chapter 384 Crisis in the Imperial Palace (2/2)



Concubine De did not struggle anymore, but calmly let the palace servants pull her away.

As for Concubine Nian, she was completely stunned and even forgot to resist when she was dragged down by the palace servants. Feng Zhaolin was dragged down by several soldiers with their mouths blocked.

It was clearly a festive day, but the entire hall was filled with a gloomy and heavy atmosphere, and no one could say anything to wish him a happy birthday.

Bai Peng spoke again: "Your Majesty, the most important thing right now is to find out the cause of death of the Queen Mother."

Feng Xuanming looked at Bai Peng and said, "Marquis Xinyang really always keeps the Queen Mother's feelings in mind. In that case, let's investigate."

The Queen Mother had just been carried down from the throne when a palace servant hurried in and said, "Your Majesty, the Black Mountain Underground Palace has been breached, and now the area outside the palace is in complete chaos."

Feng Xuanming slammed the table angrily: "What happened in the Black Mountain Underground Palace again?"

"Monsters are running out of the Black Mountain Underground Palace in an endless stream, all heading towards the capital."

Hearing this, Feng Xuanming could no longer hold back, and stood up and asked, "What's the situation outside now?"

"All the people stayed indoors and avoided the monsters' attacks, but the soldiers responsible for the safety of the capital suffered heavy casualties in their efforts to stop the monsters. Now the monsters have broken through the siege and surrounded the palace, and no one can get out."

After the palace servant finished speaking, there were indeed sounds like the howling of wild beasts and fighting outside.

Many people turned pale instantly, especially the envoys from several countries. They just wanted to come to celebrate the birthday and did not want to lose their lives here.

"Don't worry, the palace is heavily guarded and nothing will happen." Feng Xuanming lacked some confidence when he said this.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered the soldiers that King Pingliang had sent outside the city.

If King Pingliang had not died, he would definitely be able to lead troops to rescue people now.

The Northern Rong envoy was the first to get impatient: "King of Xixia, what is your Xixia response? Are you trying to take advantage of this opportunity to kill our envoys?"

It is not surprising that the envoys from the Northern Rong thought so. After all, there was Chang Mo first. If the King of Western Xia used the civil strife as an excuse to kill them, they would not even have time to complain.

"Everyone, please be calm." Feng Xuanming comforted everyone, "The national teacher is here, and he must be familiar with the situation in the Black Mountain Underground Palace. There is no need to worry, nothing will happen."

Su Chenyu said, "Since we can only sit here and wait, why don't you tell us, Master, what are those monsters outside, and why did they run out of the Black Mountain Underground Palace?"

Wen Jing had not expected that Su Chenyu would set her up at this time. She was considering how to explain it, and Su Chenyu pressed the issue, "Master Wen Jing, do you want to tell us that there is some kind of monster suppressed under the Black Mountain Underground Palace, and now that it can no longer be suppressed, the monster has escaped?"

Feng Xuanming naturally knew about the medicine man. Hearing Su Chenyu asking so carefully, he was a little displeased: "Master Fengyi, this is our Xixia affair and has nothing to do with you."

At this moment, the shouting outside was getting louder and louder. Many people could no longer sit still, fearing that the monsters would break in through the door.

Su Chenyu was as calm as ever: "King of Xixia, if it were usual, I would not ask any more questions, but now all of us are trapped here, don't we even have the qualifications to know the truth? Or are these monsters deliberately cultivated by you Xixia, waiting for this moment to take our lives?"
