The second prince nodded with tears in his eyes, then knelt down and kowtowed three times in the direction of the emperor.
He knew that after he left, even if he could see the emperor and the eldest prince again, it would definitely be several years later.
He was wearing the clothes of a young eunuch, with a strange face that Yu Zizhen had temporarily changed for him. He followed Yuheng and quickly sneaked out of the palace, feeling nervous and excited.
The emperor, fearing to alert the enemy, forced himself not to change his habit and did not leave the imperial study at this time. With tears in his eyes, he stood by the window and watched the second prince walk until he could no longer see the other's thin figure.
As for Yuheng, after handing the person over to the private soldiers arranged by Yu Zizhen outside the palace, she took advantage of the second prince going into the house to change clothes and whispered Yu Zizhen's orders to the leader of the private soldiers guarding outside.
"The Crown Prince said that a good child should not die young. He asked everyone to send the Second Prince to the manor in Jiangnan as soon as possible."
"And the eldest princess, the prince wants you to go to the imperial manor and ask her if she's willing to leave the capital with you. If she's not willing, you don't have to force her. Just take the second prince and go to Jiangnan first."
"If she asks about her biological mother, please tell her that she is now in Huangjue Temple praying for the Queen Mother."
The leader of the private army nodded to indicate that he understood. "Please tell the prince that I will definitely fulfill my mission."
Yuheng nodded, "The prince told you all to evacuate and not to keep anyone in this shop anymore."
This shop originally belonged to the Yang family. After Yang Shixian handed it over to Yu Zizhen, Yu Zizhen no longer allowed the shop to open for business.
She put all the cloth and silk in the shop into the system warehouse, and then used it as one of the bases for her private soldiers.
Now that these people are leaving, all they need to pack are the rice, grain, silver, and money they have stored here, as well as the pots, pans, pillows, bedding and other items they use in their daily lives.
They were specially trained to pack up quickly. By the time the second prince came out after changing his clothes, Yu Zizhen's private soldiers had not only packed their luggage and prepared the vehicles and horses, but also ran out to buy a lot of dry food and braised meat.
Yuheng said "take care" to the second prince who had changed his clothes and then told him to obey the leader of the private army in everything.
The Second Prince nodded vigorously with tears in his eyes, "Thank you, Miss Yuheng."
After they left, Yuheng returned to the palace in a swaggering manner, bringing with him one of Yu Zizhen's private soldiers, who had changed into eunuch's uniform.
The private soldier's figure and face are almost exactly the same as the Second Prince's after he changed his appearance, but unlike the Second Prince, he really looks like this.
Yuheng brought him into the palace, and Yu Zizhen helped him change his appearance and let him pretend to be himself for a while.
As for Yu Zizhen, she didn't want the things in the second prince's palace to fall into the hands of little Lu, so she walked towards his bedroom in a swaggering manner, despite the second prince's face.
Yu Zizhen would never let go of the valuable ornaments and accessories, the private money that the second prince didn't have time to take away, and the miscellaneous things stored in his private vault that were routinely given to him by the empress dowager, the emperor, and the empress during the New Year.
It is worth mentioning that during the process of her taking advantage, the housekeeper in the Second Prince's Palace tried to stop her.
When she entered the Second Prince's bedroom, the palace servants only perfunctorily saluted her from a distance. But when she asked for the key to the Second Prince's private vault, saying that she wanted to go in and get something, the nanny in charge of the Second Prince's bedroom refused her request in a soft yet firm manner.
The nanny said that if the second prince needed anything, she could help him get it out, and there was no need for him to go to that kind of place in person.
Yu Zizhen is not the real second prince. If others push her too far, she will not just sit there and do nothing but swallow her anger.
Her face darkened and she ordered the nanny to give her the key immediately.
The nanny was enraged by her sudden change of attitude. Not only did she refuse to give her the key, but she also mocked the "Second Prince" in a sarcastic tone for not being able to see the situation clearly.
"Your Highness, you don't think that just because the Empress Dowager is seriously ill, you'll be able to recover, right? If you're having such a dream, then this old servant suggests that you take a good look at your father. As long as the Empress Dowager is here, Your Highness, it would be best for you to be an obedient and filial son."
Yu Zizhen laughed, and laughed very loudly.
Everyone was shocked by her sudden and unbridled laughter, and thought that the "Second Prince" had finally lost his mind because he could no longer bear the humiliation.
But soon, the palace servants noticed Yu Zizhen slowly stand up and then slowly walk to the gate of the second prince's bedroom.
When everyone thought that she could not stand the nanny's ridicule and was about to flee, Yu Zizhen took out a big copper lock and a thick iron chain from somewhere, and locked the door of the second prince's bedroom with a click.
Everyone: ???
Under the confused and shocked gazes of the crowd, Yu Zizhen jumped quickly and came in front of the old lady, and smashed her directly with his iron fist.
Considering that the old hag was old and just an ordinary person who had never learned martial arts, Yu Zizhen actually held back most of his strength. But even so, the old woman was still beaten by her and screamed in pain.
The old nanny is the confidant of Mrs. Lu. Except for those at the bottom who do odd jobs and take the blame, all the palace servants in the Second Prince's Palace who have some status are loyal to this nanny.
Now that she was being beaten, they certainly wouldn't just stand there and watch.
Everyone rushed forward, saying words to stop the fight, but in fact their hands and feet were dishonestly moving towards the second prince.
Seeing them like this, Yu Zizhen felt sad for the Second Prince.
She kicked out quickly, kicking out all the guys who tried to attack her from behind, and at the same time pushed the old woman's body towards the other two people who she didn't have time to kick.
The two men were unable to stop their attacks in time, and their fists and feet landed directly on the nanny they had originally tried to rescue, causing the nanny to howl in pain.
Yu Zizhen was much more ruthless when dealing with those who were not that old than when she dealt with the old lady. After a few kicks from her, those who were kicked away either hit the wall, the tree, or someone else, and lay on their backs on the ground in so much pain that they couldn't get up at all.
As for the others who were lucky enough not to get to the inner circle, some of them were rushed to the inner circle but were knocked away by people who were quickly kicked away by Yu Zizhen, while the rest were so frightened that they didn't dare to rush forward.
It was so terrifying that he actually kicked someone away. This, this was definitely not something that their cowardly second prince who could be bullied at will would do.
"Who are you?" One of them asked Yu Zizhen tremblingly. He was very sure that this person was definitely not the second prince, but this person's face... He didn't understand how Yu Zizhen managed to completely replicate the second prince's appearance.
