The battle between Gui Yi and his men has also ended here. He looked solemn and stared at this man vigilantly.
"Thank you for saving me, sir. I wonder who you are."
Zhang Yitou frowned and said, "I am Zhang Yitou. Do you recognize me, Qiao Shaochu? I am your brother. I was ordered by the Lord to bring his family to the country of Lan safely today."
Gui Yi's expression relaxed and he asked, "This is Lord Zhang. I wonder if you have the master's token."
"Let me look for it first."
Zhang fumbled around his waist for a long time, took out a letter soaked in sweat, and threw it over casually.
Gui Yi took it solemnly, opened the letter and read it, only then did he feel relieved and his heart was filled with excitement.
"Master Zhang, the Lord has already—"
Zhang Yitou said calmly: "It has been accomplished. The country of Beixiang has changed its name to Lan." He turned to look at his wife Liu Yutong. Yu An was still hiding in her arms, and she looked at Zhang Yitou curiously.
These are the new queen and prince, we cannot neglect them.
He cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Madam, this is the young prince, right? The Lord asked me to take you to the Lan Kingdom. If the time and place are right, Madam, you need to prepare to leave. If you have anything, I will be at your service."
Wen Yueyao walked out of the room and asked in confusion, "What little prince? My son is here?"
At first, according to Tu Yufan's arrangement, Liu Yutong only told Wen Yueyao that Tu Yufan was not dead, but was going to do a secret affair arranged by Duke Yan before his death, and he could not expose himself. Although Wen Yueyao had doubts, she would not stop her son from fulfilling his father's last wish.
Liu Yutong knew that she could no longer hide the truth, so she told her mother-in-law the truth. Wen Yueyao pointed at them in shock and said, "You—Jinfan is too ridiculous."
Liu Yutong lowered his head obediently and said nothing, knowing that the matter was done. Wen Yueyao was so angry that she didn't say a word.
While packing, Liu Yutong entrusted Zhang Tou to go to the Shangshu Mansion. Although there were guards at home, many people still died. Fortunately, her father was not killed.
Late at night, taking advantage of the chaos in the city, Zhang Yitou escorted Duke Yan's family and prepared to leave quietly. There was also a team stationed outside the city, also led by Zhang Yitou.
An ordinary carriage secretly left the city gate at night. The gatekeepers had long been killed and the carriage was left unattended.
Zhang Yutou couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that Jin State is also going to be in chaos."
......
When the fourth prince was preparing to usurp the throne, he summoned his army and marched into the palace. The entire palace was filled with people fleeing in panic.
The Fourth Prince did not restrain his men, resulting in the death and injury of countless palace maids and eunuchs who were trying to escape. He looked at his father's bedroom, and although it was heavily guarded, it was still far from enough compared to the number of his own soldiers.
Endless ambition was revealed in his eyes, and he ordered his men to charge into the emperor's bedroom.
The door was kicked open, and the emperor was sitting in the hall, looking at the Fourth Prince expressionlessly, with concubines kneeling around him.
The Fourth Prince's eyes narrowed, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes. That was the oppression that his father had brought upon him over the years.
"My son, you never thought that you would pretend to be loyal and honest. In fact, you are actually a disloyal and unfilial person."
