Secondly, there are the Third Prince and the Fourth Prince. After all, they are adults and have a group of followers around them, so they cannot be taken lightly.

On the other hand, although the young prince had a little empress backing him up, she was still just a woman, and the young prince was too young to have any chance of ascending the throne. So the most disloyal Minister Lei and General Wuwei were sent over.

Having arranged everything, Crown Prince Jinwu pushed open the door and looked towards the direction outside the palace: "I wish you all a triumphant return. I will always remember your kindness in troubling me today."

Everyone's hearts lifted. Today's matter was indeed somewhat tricky, but as long as they succeeded, they would become the most trusted confidants of the new Demon Emperor, and the entire court structure would be decided by them. The old fogies would eventually have to step down.

Thinking of this, the group, whose faces had been pale, perked up, bowed respectfully, and left with high spirits.

...

When Zuan and his group arrived at the royal court, the city gates were already closed, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.

Even if Qiao Xueying appeared as the Elf Princess, it wouldn't work. After returning, she said sullenly, "The city gate matters are handled by the Commandant of the Guards and Prince Yongchang, Wuli. I'll remember this grudge."

By this time, the group had noticed that more and more fires were breaking out in the city, and the sounds of fighting were growing louder.

Knowing that something big must have happened in the city, Zu An hurriedly said to Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue, "I have to go into the city because of the matters concerning the elves and the snakes. This has nothing to do with you, and I don't want you to take any risks because of it..."

Before he could finish speaking, Yun Jianyue interrupted him: "You brat, what are you saying? We've been through so many life-or-death situations together, why are we being so polite? Even if we don't care about you, we should still help Yu-mei."

Yan Xuehen didn't speak, but her gesture of holding Yu Yanluo's hand already showed her attitude.

Qiao Xueying, standing to the side, looked worried. The three of them seemed to have a better relationship than she had imagined, which was a bit troublesome.

Seeing that they said that, Zu'an naturally didn't need to be pretentious.

Since the soldiers guarding the city won't let us in, let's fight our way in.

The guards of the demon royal court were originally extraordinary, and it would not be so easy to force your way in. However, it seems that a large number of the main forces were transferred away from the city gates today, so the group entered the city with almost no effort.

Meanwhile, in the heart of the young prince's mansion in Nanzheng Lane, a place teeming with high-ranking officials and nobles, a stunningly beautiful woman was tightly holding a little boy, her expression grave as she watched the battle raging outside.

The bloody scene outside made the little boy's voice tremble: "Mother, I'm scared~"

The COVID-19 situation in Chongqing is quite serious lately, with 490 new cases in a single day. Schools have been closed for the past few days, and staying home every day to stock up on groceries and take care of the kids is really tough. To make matters worse, I've also recently developed some cold symptoms. Ugh...
