The guards at the middle and outer gates did not see the signals sent out earlier because they were blocked by the city gates, and had no idea what was going on.
Seeing a large number of palace maids and eunuchs rushing over, they were all stunned. Just as they were about to step forward to ask, a life-and-death fight had already begun.
The Murong Mansion's assassins held Concubine Duan hostage, preventing the imperial guards from doing anything. However, even so, in this frenzied charge, the Murong Mansion's secret guards still died one by one.
Seeing that the secret guards of Murong Mansion were basically wiped out, Murong Qingyun and Murong Yan were alone with two seriously injured secret guards and could not do anything.
However, Concubine Duan was hypnotized and bewitched by Murong Yan. She used a sharp golden hairpin to press against the carotid artery in her neck, threatening to commit suicide to force Murong Qingyun and Murong Yan to leave.
The imperial guards couldn't understand why Concubine Duan, who had just told them not to worry about her and that she must kill Murong Qingyun and Murong Yan, would suddenly threaten to die. When they were distracted, they saw two seriously injured secret guards and Concubine Duan rushing towards the imperial guards.
Concubine Duan suddenly went mad and threw herself at the guards around her. The two secret guards took the opportunity to fight for their lives. At this moment, the hundreds of palace maids and eunuchs who had finally closed the inner door of Suzaku Gate also rushed out at the same time, entangled with the guards at the middle and outer gates.
Murong Qingyun and Murong Yan had disguised themselves as palace maids and eunuchs, blending in almost unnoticed among the 600 people. Taking advantage of the chaos and the people's eagerness to watch the fight between the outer sects, they immediately disappeared into the crowd.
After turning a corner, he immediately knocked out a man and a woman, put on their clothes, and then blended into the crowd.
Several guards from the outer gate who had managed to escape immediately rushed into the crowd to search, but after searching for a long time, they only saw two naked corpses in an inconspicuous corner.
Qian Yeming had also arrived at this time. After kicking open the locked palace gate, the commander of the Imperial Guards also rushed out with 10,000 Imperial Guards. They immediately blocked the streets and asked the people if they had seen the two escaped fish.
However, Murong Qingyun and Murong Yan had already escaped, and the other party was proficient in hypnosis and disguise. Once they blended into the crowd, it would be almost impossible to find them again.
A quarter of an hour later, the deputy commander of the Imperial Guards was ordered to call back all the Imperial Guards. This palace farce finally came to an end.
In Concubine Duan's bedroom, at this moment, she has regained consciousness under the effect of Baili Xiao's medicine, but because her injuries are too severe, the imperial physician is unable to save her, and she is now spending the last moments of her life.
Qian Yeming and Baili Xiao came to visit her, and Concubine Duan immediately reached out and tried to hold Qian Yeming's hand.
"Tiffany, please lie down. The doctor said you can't move."
Qian Yeming stood at the head of Concubine Duan's bed, but did not extend his hand to shake hers.
To him, no one in the palace, except Xiao'er, was worthy of shaking his hand. Call him petty or vindictive, but when he was still the crown prince, when everyone looked down on him, tried to harm him, and wished him dead, he had already sworn that those who were related to him were only relatives in name only, even if they shared the same blood.
This Concubine Duan had no blood relationship with him and had no favors towards him, so there was no need for him to be too nice to her.
