The last two sentences were deliberately said by the princess in order to stabilize the morale of the army.
Another point is that she deliberately let Pei Changying know that she had found her real grandmother.
Only if Pei Changying believed it, he would not think of using this trick to threaten her again.
Only in this way will the real grandma be safe!
Sure enough, after hearing the eldest princess' words, the morale of the army behind her was greatly boosted.
The imperial court was caught off guard, and the morale of the two sides seemed even lower in comparison.
No matter how well Pei Changying concealed it, the eldest princess noticed the shock and panic that flashed across his eyes. This shows that Pei Changying did not know that his real grandmother had also come to ancient times.
Pei Changying knew that now was not the time to get angry, he could only bite to death, this was Grandma Gu Sang.
"Pei Weiqi, stop spreading rumors and misleading people. This is Gu Sang's biological grandmother."
"Not only did you shoot Grandma Gu Sang yourself, you also slandered it as a fake!"
"If Gu Sang knew, she would hate you to death!"
Hearing this, the eldest princess laughed sarcastically.
She sneered fearlessly: "Pei Changying, the friendship between Gu Sang and I is something that a heartless and selfish person like you will never be able to understand."
"She trusts me, and she has handed over full authority over the battlefield to me!"
"She has already taken her grandma back home!"
"Stop trying to sow discord here!"
After saying this, the princess gave the order to attack the city.
This time, she specially asked someone to bring grenades.
She rarely used gunpowder in wars. After all, gunpowder was too lethal. The court soldiers were also soldiers from the Central Plains, and she couldn't bear to see the Central Plains' military strength reduced too much.
But after seeing Pei Changying was also in Nancheng yesterday, the princess wanted to blow the beast to death on the spot.
As the princess finished speaking, hundreds of grenades were thrown onto the city wall by throwers.
“Boom boom—”
"boom!!"
"Protect the Emperor!"
The generals shouted to protect the emperor.
Pei Changying was so frightened that his face suddenly changed. He didn't even have time to say anything harsh before he ran downstairs to hide.
With grenades clearing the way, a gap was quickly blown out at the city gate.
General Qin led his army into the city.
"Lay down your weapons, those who surrender will not be killed!"
General Qin shouted as he charged forward.
At this time, the people in the city had already hidden in their homes, closing the doors and windows tightly!
Since entering the city, the princess has ordered a ban on the use of gunpowder, for fear that innocent people would be implicated.
Pei Changying was put on the carriage by the soldiers. When he got on the carriage, his legs went weak and he almost fell down.
After finally getting into the carriage, the guard immediately drove and took Pei Changying away to the palace.
It was not until he got into the carriage that Pei Changying realized that his legs were still weak and his hands were still shaking.
That thing is so scary!
Only after personally touching the grenade did Pei Changying realize how terrifying that thing was!
The rumbling sound almost deafened his ears.
A grenade came over and several people standing nearby were blown away. The bloody appearance made Pei Changying still unable to calm down.
So scary!
This kind of thing from later generations, appearing here, is simply a world-destroying artifact!
Thinking that Gu Sang didn't tell him how to make this magical weapon, he became extremely angry and his resentment towards Gu Sang grew even stronger.
When Pei Changying fled towards the palace.
-
In the capital, Li's villa.
After receiving the secret letter from her daughter, Mrs. Li planned to send the caravan to escort Grandma Gu out of the city early in the morning.
But unexpectedly, her husband, who had never cared about these trivial matters, actually asked his daughter for the first time who she brought back from the palace, and also mentioned that he would accompany Madam Li to visit the other courtyard.
Madam Li didn't think much about it. She was also very curious why her daughter would take such a big risk and bring someone back from the palace?
What is the relationship between this person and my daughter?
Is it worth it for my daughter to take the risk to help her leave the palace?
When the two arrived at the villa, they were confused to see that the person their daughter had risked her life to secretly bring out of the palace was just an old man.
Is there such an old maid in the palace?
Lord Li stared at the old man in front of him and suddenly became thoughtful.
"Who have you served?"
Lord Li asked casually.
Concubine Li had anticipated that someone might ask, so she had already told Grandma Gu how to answer.
But she overlooked one detail.
That is, the concept of hierarchy is engraved in their bones, and every move they make represents humility. Grandma Gu, who lives in the later generations, although she wants to imitate them, has not lived in the ancient times for several years or even more than ten years, so she seems a little out of place in some subtle differences.
Lord Li noticed these anomalies, and then thought about the fact that the relationship they had worked so hard to establish was used by their own daughter to send an old man out of the city, which was very unusual.
After just a little thought, Lord Li immediately thought of a possibility, that is, the person in front of him was Gu Sang's grandmother!
Seeing the wealth that was within his reach, Lord Li's heart was pounding with nervousness!
As long as he hands Grandma Gu Sang over to the emperor, he will be able to gain the emperor's trust again. Maybe if the emperor is so happy, he will even restore his daughter to the position of concubine!
Perhaps it was because Lord Li stared at Grandma Gu with too intense a gaze, which made Grandma Gu feel alert.
She wanted to dodge, but there were at least a dozen strong men loading and unloading goods in the courtyard. How could she escape?
Even if you escape at the risk of your life, this is the capital!
This is the emperor's territory, and she will die if she escapes.
Thinking of this, Grandma Gu had no choice but to accept her fate and take a gamble without making a sound.
Bet the Li family is kind!
But Grandma Gu made a wrong bet!
After Lord Li guessed her identity, he immediately had her tied up.
"You must be Gu Sang's grandmother."
Grandma Gu didn't say anything.
Lord Li laughed heartily: "Grandma Gu, please don't blame me. It's because Concubine Gu has missed you for a long time. I am just sending you to see Concubine Gu."
Grandma Gu stared at Lord Li with disdain, feeling sorry for Concubine Li. How could there be a father who didn't care about his daughter's life or death?
If it were her, when she learned that Sangsang was tortured to the point where his life was worse than death, she would definitely take a knife and go find that person to fight him.
Instead of turning a blind eye to it, he was only thinking about pleasing that man and waiting for him to show mercy and release his daughter.
"A man like you is not fit to be a father."
When Lord Li heard this, he was not angry, but said:
"I was thinking about my daughter. She made a mistake and got into trouble."
"Fortunately, the emperor didn't care about implicating her family, he just demoted her."
"When I give you to the emperor, he will confer the title of Empress again if he is pleased. She will still be the most glorious empress in the harem."
"How can you, an outsider, understand my painstaking efforts?"
"Bah!" Grandma Gu spat in the face of Lord Li who was making excuses for himself with all confidence.
