Lianyi heard the news sent back by Duoduo and raised her eyebrows and asked:
"How did he get in?"
"He came in through a secret passage."
"Secret passage?"
"Yes, do you want Duoduo to stop them?"
"Let them in! But block their escape route."
Ripple ordered calmly.
"Yes, Master!"
A quarter of an hour later, the screams of palace maids and the sounds of swords clashing were heard from the inner hall.
Yunshan and Hongye looked at each other and immediately stood in front of Lianyi.
Yun Shan pulled out the whip tied to her waist. Hong Ye's face darkened. He slapped the jade buckle on his waist, opened the hidden buckle, pulled out a soft sword, and said to Lian Yi without turning his head:
"Mother, don't go out. We will protect you."
"Well, the Queen Mother has great confidence in you."
Lianyi didn't have the conscious intention of standing in front of the child, she just said it with relief.
"Mother, please at least say a few words of advice!"
Yun Shan scratched her cheek and said helplessly, trying to ease the tense atmosphere.
"Mother, this is giving us a chance to practice, so stop acting like a spoiled brat."
Hongye said immediately.
As soon as he finished speaking, the injured guards retreated into the bedroom where Lianyi was.
"Your Majesty, please follow me and leave. Someone has secretly sneaked into Fengqi Palace."
A guard trotted forward, knelt on one knee and spoke to Lianyi.
Lianyi then slowly got off the bed, stroked her sleeves and asked:
"What benefit did Hongwu (the third prince's name) promise you to kidnap me?"
The guard who was kneeling on one knee looked up in surprise, and the next moment he rushed forward with a sword in hand. Since he had been exposed, there was no need to hide.
Yunshan's soft whip had already wrapped around the guard's ankle, and Hongye's soft sword directly faced the sword stabbed by the traitor.
In just one breath, the three of them had already exchanged three moves, two against one, and temporarily stabilized the opponent.
After all, the two were only twelve years old. Although their martial arts skills were good, their strength was limited. In addition, they were used to a life of luxury. After fighting several rounds with these battle-hardened guards, they were a little out of breath.
Lianyi just stood in a place where it would not affect the battle, and occasionally reminded the two of them to make up their moves, which could be considered as off-field support.
Just as the two were about to be defeated, the guard leader rushed in, killed the other man, and then bowed to Lianyi and said:
"My queen, it was my fault for not guarding properly, which gave the bad guys an opportunity to take advantage of me."
"It's not your problem. They came in through the secret passage in the palace."
Lianyi simply waved her hand.
"Your Majesty, should we leave Fengqi Palace now and join the Emperor?"
"No need, just guard Fengqi Palace. They came here for me, the Second Princess, and the Third Prince. Only after they captured the three of us, they would have the capital to threaten Hongji."
"Your Majesty is very insightful and has hit upon the key point. I just don't know whether your son will choose to keep his throne or come to save you."
The third prince Hongwu, surrounded by a group of men in black, stepped into Lianyi's bedroom.
Hongwu looked at the ripples that had hardly changed, and his heart was filled with unstoppable jealousy. Time had loved this woman so much, giving her a smart brain and a beautiful face, allowing her to stand firm in the harem.
“You’re here.”
Lianyi's expression was very calm, as if she was just greeting an old friend.
"Your Majesty, aren't you surprised by my arrival?"
Hongwu asked coldly.
"I said, the life-saving grace must be repaid."
The Third Prince's eyes shone, and he said:
"Get started!"
The man in black immediately charged into the fight with the guards on the opposite side. Only Lianyi looked at the third prince across the crowd of people fighting.
Yunshan and Hongye had already retreated to Lianyi's side at this time, but both of them stubbornly stood in front of their mother, staring at the legendary third uncle with eager eyes.
The fight between the two sides has entered a fierce stage. People are constantly getting injured and falling to the ground, and more people are constantly pouring into the bedroom, forcing Lianyi, Yunshan and Hongye into a corner.
Lanzhi and Nanny Sun held daggers in their hands, ready to die together with the enemy.
Lianyi frowned and asked Duoduo:
"Is there any trouble over at Hongji? What's holding them back? What's taking so long?"
"Someone stopped Hongji and told him to complete the coronation ceremony first and then come to rescue you. Hongji was stopped by the ministers and couldn't get away, so he could only arrange for the Dark Dragon Guards to come to support him, but the Dark Dragon Guards were stopped by unknown people."
Duoduo immediately reported the latest news.
"Humph! You picked a good time."
Lian Yi snorted coldly and said to the people standing in front of her:
"Yunshan, Hongye, both of you step back!"
After she finished speaking, Lianyi threw off her complicated outer robe, revealing a red shorts underneath, and a green whip was held in her hand.
With a "snap" sound, Lianyi turned her wrist and whipped three men in black to the ground. At the same time when they were hit, Duoduo also knocked them out with the barbs. Her main goal was to injure people but not kill them. She was a principled plant pet and would ascend to heaven in the future.
Lianyi stepped into the battle group with ghostly steps. Every time she attacked, someone would be injured. In a short while, a group of people fell to the ground. Hongwu was also tied to a pillar in the hall by Lianyi and could not move.
"You know martial arts!"
"You forgot that I am the general's daughter."
"I originally thought you were only good at fancy moves. I made a mistake!"
The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. The third prince knew that he had lost again this round, but he was unwilling to accept it. Why did he miss the throne again and again?
"Everyone has a trump card, and I am no exception."
Lian Yi calmly said to the stunned commander of the Royal Guards:
"Clean up the aftermath as quickly as possible."
"Yes, my lady!"
The next moment, Yunshan and Hongye surrounded Lianyi. It was the first time they saw their mother take action, and they were so shocked.
"Mother, you are hiding something from me. Why didn't you teach me this amazing move?"
Yun Shan pouted and said.
"This step requires walking on the plum blossom pole. You fell a few times and stopped practicing. How can you accuse the Queen Mother of hiding something?"
Lianyi smiled and scratched Yunshan's nose and said.
"Got it, mother. I will practice again."
Yun Shan thought about it and realized that it was indeed her fault for not persisting, so she immediately agreed obediently.
Hongye is calmer, if you ignore his sparkling eyes.
It was not until an incense stick of time had passed that Hongji led his men into Fengqi Palace. Seeing the corpses on the ground, his heart sank. His mother and his younger brother and sister-in-law were all in Fengqi Palace.
When everyone rushed into Fengqi Palace, what they saw was Lianyi sitting on a high seat, with Yunshan and Hongye, who were both intact, next to her.
"Mother, are you all right?"
Hongji rushed forward and asked.
"Thanks to my son's blessing, Mother is safe."
Ripple said with a smile.
"I am late, my son."
Hongji said ashamedly, frowning as he looked at the Dark Dragon Guard who arrived just one step earlier than him.
Before he could finish his words, Lianyi whipped out a whip, and whipped Prime Minister Feng, one of the regent ministers who came with Hongji, and sent him flying, and he hit the pillar where the third prince was tied.
Prime Minister Feng was completely unprepared. When he hit the pillar, there was a sound of broken bones, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he instantly collapsed.
My dears, the Spring Festival Gala is about to begin. After watching Feng Ling's Wen Wen, go watch the show. See you tomorrow.
