Chapter 229 Leading Troops into the Palace
General Xu nodded when he saw their pleading eyes, waved to them, and took them in the direction of Lin Zhaoye.
When Xiao Yujing saw this, his eyes turned red with anger, but even if he was angry, what could he do? Now he himself was a prisoner.
He can't do anything.
Almost all the soldiers followed General Xu.
Seeing this, Xiao Yuchen asked Lin Zhaoye to arrange the soldiers, and he discussed the next steps with Commander Hu.
They are not far from the capital now, and Xiao Yuchen plans to lead his troops directly towards the capital. After all, there are so many people here, and it is not a good idea to camp outside all the time.
Commander Hu also agreed with his idea, thinking that they could go to the capital together, since Xiao Yujing had been captured anyway.
Their soldiers also surrendered and rushed into the palace in one go.
After a few people agreed to do this, they began to pack up their things and headed towards the capital with the large army.
Three days later, their large army finally arrived at the gate of the capital. Xiao Yuchen rode his horse in the front, and beside him were Commander Hu and Lin Zhaoye.
When the soldiers guarding the city gate saw that the returning team was led by Xiao Yuchen, they all showed a look of confusion on their faces.
Didn't the Crown Prince just lead a group of soldiers out to fight? Why is the Ninth Prince coming back with another group of soldiers? And it seems that they have many more soldiers than the Crown Prince brought out?
Wait, wasn't the Ninth Prince already dead? He's not dead, and he's even brought a large army into the city. What's he planning to do?
Before the soldiers guarding the city gate could figure out what was going on, Xiao Yuchen had already rushed in with his troops.
Now they realized that it was too late to stop him even if they wanted to. They had been controlled by the soldiers brought by Xiao Yuchen.
When their large army was marching on the streets of the capital, many people hid themselves. Some brave people hid behind their doors, opened some cracks, and secretly looked out to see what was happening.
Seeing that these soldiers did not attack them, some of the people boldly walked out of their houses.
Some people also recognized Xiao Yuchen. Seeing him leading a large army of soldiers towards the palace, everyone had some guesses in their minds.
It's just that they all buried this guess deep in their hearts and dared not say it out loud.
In fact, for the people, it doesn’t matter who sits in that position. For them, as long as they live a peaceful and prosperous life, there is not much difference.
Xiao Yuchen led his troops all the way into the palace. When he reached the outside of the palace, he led his men in with knives in hand and killed their way in.
Xiao Yuchen did not participate. Instead, he grabbed Xiao Yujing by the back of the collar and used his lightness skills to go to the queen's palace.
Xiao Yujing's mouth was blocked and his whole body was tied up with ropes. He couldn't speak or move freely, which made him very uncomfortable.
Xiao Yuchen walked all the way to the Queen's palace and broke in directly.
The queen has not received any news from outside yet. She is sitting in the palace drinking tea and discussing something with her confidant.
With a "bang", Xiao Yuchen threw Xiao Yujing in front of the queen.
The queen was startled and the teacup in her hand fell to the ground. When she saw clearly that the person on the ground was Xiao Yujing.
She was so frightened that she was shaking all over and ran quickly towards Xiao Yujing.
"Son, what happened to you? How did you end up like this? Who tied you up?"
As the queen spoke, she looked up and met Xiao Yuchen's silent gaze. In an instant, cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
"Xiao Yuchen, it's you! You are so brave! Why did you kidnap my son? Do you know that he is now the crown prince?
Do you still want to do something treasonous?"
When the Queen was talking about this, Xiao Yujing wanted to speak up to remind her, but he was mute and his mouth was blocked.
He couldn't utter a word.
The queen was still cursing when suddenly a long sword was pressed against her neck. The rest of her words were stuck in her throat and she couldn't say anything.
"You...you...what on earth do you want to do?"
The last words he said were completely without any confidence.
"Nothing. I'm just returning the favor after you hurt me. You won't forget what you did to my mother, right?"
Although Bai Ran did not compete with other concubines for anything when she was in the palace, there was a period of time when she was the only one favored by the emperor.
This aroused the jealousy of other women. The one who hid the most was the queen, who asked other concubines to do many things.
Even if the matter was exposed, she would simply push the other concubines out and clear herself of the responsibility.
Xiao Yuchen was still young before, and he didn’t know about these things, but as he grew older, he asked people to investigate what grievances his mother had suffered in the palace over the years.
He remembered them all in his heart, thinking that one day he would vent his anger on his mother.
Just when he was about to kill the queen with a knife, he suddenly thought, yes, Bai Ran is here too, why not let her do it herself?
So, he also pointed two acupoints on the queen's body and asked someone to watch over her. Then he found Jiang Nanyuan and told her about the situation here.
After Jiang Nanyuan learned about it, she went with him to a deserted place, entered the space and brought Bai Ran out.
Bai Ran didn't know what was going on, so Xiao Yuchen briefly explained it to her. When she learned that they were going to see the queen, she immediately perked up.
She and the Queen hadn't seen each other for many years, so she had to go and see her. In the past, she often did some small things behind her back. Don't think she didn't know. She was in a bad mood at that time and just didn't want to care about it.
But now her mood is completely different. She wants to see the queen and see if she will be surprised if she sees her!
Xiao Yuchen took her to the Queen's palace and brought Bai Ran to her.
Sure enough, when the queen saw Bai Ran, she was so scared that she looked like she wanted to eat someone.
"You, you, you...how are you still alive? Weren't you dead a long time ago?"
"Bah, who did you say died? I'm not dead. Don't curse me. If anyone is going to die, it's you who should die."
When the queen heard Bai Ran's words, she became even more terrified.
This person spoke so rudely, completely different from the previous Bai Ran.
Is this person really Bai Ran? No, even if Bai Ran takes good care of herself, she can't be this young!
Besides, she wasn’t as young as she is now when she disappeared!
She must be fake. Xiao Yuchen must have found someone who looks like her to scare him on purpose.
