The guards found Zhao Shu and said sternly, "Princess, Yi De has arrived, carrying a matchlock gun. The commander wants him to leave the manor to avoid trouble."
"Where is Father?" Zhao Shu asked worriedly.
"The prince hasn't returned from the Huo residence yet," the guard replied.
"Go quickly and inform Father to go to the palace. At least there are Imperial Guards there." Qin Ji is also in the palace. Qin Ji will definitely be able to protect Father. Besides, the Empress Dowager will definitely worry if she doesn't see that Father is safe.
The guard agreed, but then suddenly remembered that Zhao Shu hadn't said she was leaving, so he immediately asked, "Princess, what about you?"

"I've come to see your father and tell him about what happened back then," Yi De said smugly, as if Prince Yong would be on her side after she recounted the past.
Zhao Shu sneered, "I'm afraid he doesn't have time to see you. After all, not just anyone can see my father. If you have something to say, it's the same to tell me. If you don't say it now, I'm afraid you won't have another chance."
"Is that so?" Yi De took a matchlock gun from the person next to him and pointed the muzzle at Zhao Shu's forehead. "I've come to take you to see your mother!"
