Gu Tingzhou, relying on his cavalry advantage, quickly broke through the heavy siege. Seeing that the situation was not good, Gu Tingchen hurriedly ordered Liu Zhang: "Go, mobilize all the imperial guards and kill Gu Tingzhou as quickly as possible."
Liu Zhang frowned, "Your Highness, if Prince Qi really brings his men into the palace, who will resist his attack?"
"Fool, the Ma Junsi is rebelling. If we let them gain the upper hand and take the old emperor away from the palace, do you want Gu Tingzhou to compete with me?"
Gu Tingchen yelled angrily, kicked Liu Zhang out of the door, and personally led people to stop him.
For a moment, arrows rained down in front of the Yangxin Palace, and the sound of fighting resounded throughout the palace.
At this time, in the palace prison room, the Qi Wangfu army lurking there heard the sounds of fighting in the palace and were ready to move.
"Father, Young Master Gu has already led the cavalry and the imperial guards into battle. Now we just need to lead our men to the Cining Palace and control the empress dowager and the ministers, and the world of Daye will be yours." The prince said excitedly.
Prince Qi's face lit up with joy, and he was about to order everyone to take action when Ji Ningxi hurriedly stopped him.
"Your Highness, don't do that." Ji Ningxi advised earnestly, "I still don't understand Gu Tingzhou's intentions. Don't fall for his evil schemes."
"Even if he has other evil schemes, the sounds of fighting in the Yangxin Palace are real." Prince Qi was furious. "The jade seal and the empress dowager are both in the Cining Palace.

"Your Highness is so confused," Ji Ningxi said, "Prince Daoan would rather send so many innocent women to the northern border to marry than lead his troops there. How could he, who values power so much, hand over the Imperial Seal and the Queen Mother to us?"
After a brief moment of contemplation, she looked at Prince Qi calmly, "Your Highness, the Crown Prince is young and impulsive. Please don't let him do what he wants. We just need to wait a little longer until the Gu brothers are both defeated. It would be best if we could take advantage of the chaos to kill the old emperor, and then we can reap the benefits."
After her persuasion, Prince Qi finally had some concerns.
Seeing his father becoming hesitant, the prince was furious: "Father, if we miss this golden opportunity, our entire Qiwang Mansion will have no way out."
"Listen to your Aunt Ji and wait a little longer."
King Qi sighed lightly and signaled everyone to stay put.
