late at night.
In the distance outside the capital, many small red dots suddenly appeared and the sound of galloping horses could be heard.
As countless small red dots got closer, people on the city walls could see clearly that they were torches.
Following them came the troops led by the general who defended the country.
Bai Ling stood on the wall with a serious expression, but not at all panicked.
Outside the capital, smoke and blood were everywhere, and a tough battle was inevitable inside the palace.
Behind the palace gate.
Li Jinchen rode a Ferghana horse, wore black armor, held a spear in his hand, and exuded a sharp aura.
On his left and right stood two men in white ink and green clothes, and behind them stood a hundred royal death warriors, a hundred imperial guards, thousands of guards and his ten secret guards.
The Third Prince looked at the signal rising in the sky, raised his sword and shouted, "Soldiers, charge!"
The third prince was excited, his eyes filled with excitement. After tonight, he would be the master of the world.
Li Jinchen will only be defeated by him. Once he catches Li Jinchen, he will fight with Xu Jinyi in front of him.
He wanted Li Jinchen to see with his own eyes how the woman he loved deeply enjoyed herself under him.
Inside the palace, smoke filled the air and the soldiers rushed forward desperately, causing blood to splatter everywhere.
The ground and walls were all bright red, and everywhere there were fallen bodies.
Although most of the people on Li Jinchen's side are masters, they are still at a disadvantage in terms of numbers.
The third prince quickly rushed to Li Jinchen.
"Give up, Li Jinchen, and I can spare your life. But you don't know that my army is coming soon." The third prince laughed wildly.
Li Jinchen raised the corners of his lips, his expression unchanged. He heard the sound of a large number of people outside and said coldly: "Are you sure it's your people?"
"What do you mean?" The third prince asked warily.
Li Jinchen did not explain, but instead picked up the spear in his hand and stabbed it towards the third prince.
I saw the high-speed rotating spear making a rustling sound, and watched the spear approaching.
The third prince was extremely panicked. In shock and anger, he raised the sword in his hand and used all his strength to resist.
As the spear lifted the sword into the air and pointed the cold spear at the third prince's throat, everything was settled.
Hearing the sound of the troops approaching, the Third Prince smiled triumphantly: "Did you see that? I'm the winner, hahahaha..."
Turning his head, he saw that the Third Prince's expression suddenly changed, his face turned ashen, and he stared at the person who came in disbelief.
"Your Highness, I am honored to be here late. Please forgive me."
The third prince's face suddenly turned deathly pale, and he squatted on the ground with a dead heart. He knew that the game was over.
"Hahaha……"
"Hahaha..." The third prince had disheveled hair at this time, and he no longer had the high-spirited look he had just had.
Now he looks more like a crazy prisoner.
"General Wei Zhen, please stand up. Thanks to General Yang for arriving just in time. You've come all this way, dusty and tired."
The people who came were none other than General Wei Zhen and his troops stationed at the border.
That is Xu Jinyi’s grandfather.
When Li Jinchen learned that the third prince might rebel, he made preparations.
I have already communicated with General Wei Zhen via letter. If there is any unusual movement in the capital, General Wei Zhen will immediately rush back with his troops.
So the General Guarding the Nation helped the Third Prince to attack the capital with his own troops and the troops of General Chen and General Gu.
The Chen and Gu families each had 20,000 soldiers and horses, plus the 30,000 soldiers and horses of the general guarding the country, a total of 70,000.
Fortunately, Li Jinchen made timely arrangements and sent someone to deliver the letter to the border eight hundred miles in advance.
Only then did Bai Ling and General Wei Zhen surround them, and the situation took a sharp turn in an instant.
Looking at Li Jinchen, the Third Prince's eyes were filled with resentment: "The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. You can kill or chop me up as you please."
At this time, the prince was supported by his eunuch and slowly walked out, his face full of disappointment.
"My son." The Imperial Noble Consort was being forced by the palace guards to follow behind the Emperor. The Third Prince only reacted when he heard the Imperial Noble Consort's voice.
"Mother!" The third prince roared with his heart broken and stared at the emperor.
Upon seeing this, the emperor sighed heavily and was no longer soft-hearted.
"I'll leave this matter to you, Prince."
The emperor's health has been deteriorating, and he is no longer able to handle many things, so almost everything has been handed over to the prince.
That night, almost everyone in the capital city did not sleep.
Hearing the sound of troops outside, everyone closed the doors and windows and watched through the cracks in the doors and screens as the large army headed towards the palace.
The hearts of all the officials were in their throats, and those who supported the third prince were extremely nervous.
I never thought that the third prince would be so bold as to rebel directly.
Xu Jin'er was extremely excited at this moment. After tonight, she would be able to escape from her current situation, and Xu Jinyi would become a prisoner.
His mind was full of ways to take revenge on Xu Jinyi, and he had no idea that the Third Prince had been defeated.
The next morning, the sun shone on the earth and a new day began.
At the gate to the palace, ministers were whispering to each other, asking about the news of last night.
Lord Xu was surrounded and questioned, but he knew nothing about anything and was very nervous.
Arrived at Xuanzheng Hall.
The ministers saw the prince in his neatly dressed clothes at a glance, and immediately everyone knew that the third prince had been defeated.
The ministers who supported the third prince all looked as pale as death.
Thinking of the prince's methods, my legs began to tremble.
Lord Xu, on the other hand, looked very happy. Even though his legitimate daughter had a rift with him, he did not want the third prince to ascend the throne.
This time when he went to court, the emperor directly issued several imperial edicts.
The first one is that the third prince was plotting a rebellion, but because of his royal blood, he was spared and demoted to a commoner.
The second order was to execute the three ministers who participated in the incident last night: General Zhenbei, General Chen and General Gu at noon.
All nine generations of his family were executed.
In addition, Prime Minister Shen failed to keep the military seal properly, so he was stripped of his official position and demoted to a commoner.
Prime Minister Shen's eyes widened, he had no idea what was going on and why it involved his family.
When he saw the military token in the emperor's hand, which should have been in his study, his face turned pale and he knelt on the ground, allowing the eunuch to take off his official uniform.
The third imperial edict commended General Wei Zhen and allowed General Wei Zhen and his family to return to Beijing.
The fourth imperial edict was to beat to death the imperial concubine and her mother's family.
The fifth imperial edict announced his abdication, with the crown prince ascending the throne immediately.
There was an uproar in the court.
The eunuch slowly came up holding the newly made dragon robe.
…
At this moment, Xu Jinyi in the Prince's Mansion had already learned that her man had ascended the throne.
I don’t know if the children were happy for their father and wanted to come out earlier, so they kicked the amniotic fluid.
As the contractions came one after another, Xu Jinyi's face turned pale with pain.
"Don't worry, Princess. The baby is in the right position. Just breathe easy. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be back soon."
The three midwives were busy running around, one preparing things, one comforting Xu Jinyi, and one observing the condition of the fetus at all times.
