Chapter 374 Where Is He?
have punched him. This was too domineering, it was clearly a blatant grab!"Outrageous!" An Gonggong, standing beside the Emperor, was so flustered he practically spat out his words. How dare this girl..."Ge'er, where are you going" Seeing that Xiao Yu Ge was leaving, Qian Yi called out to her.
“I have to return to Chonghuadang. There are only noble ladies and young masters there, and if they were to be taken hostage, the consequences would be unimaginable.” Xiao Yuge had guessed from the moment she knew that King Liang was going to rebel who it was that had been sent to the secret compartment in Chonghuadang.
There, all were the children of high-ranking officials from the capital. To seize them would be like seizing the throats of those officials themselves. Even if they were loyal to the Emperor in heart, they would surely be controlled by Qian Li Ye.
"How can you go alone" Qian Yi'an naturally wouldn't let her go alone.
"Rest assured, I can do it," Xiao Yuge urged. "We don't have time, saving the Emperor is important! Let's act separately." To be honest, she didn't really care who became emperor. It was just that Qian Li Ye was ambitious and lustful; if he became emperor, Lan Zhao Kingdom wouldn't be far from ruin. She couldn't stand by and watch the people of Lan Zhao Kingdom suffer under such a person.
"Alright, then be careful. I'll arrange things here at the Yu Xin Palace and have someone sent to assist you immediately. Don't try to be a hero!"Qian Yi'an also knew that there was no other choice at this point. He instinctively grabbed her wrist and looked deeply into her eyes: "Ge'er, you must survive!" Even though he knew she was the daughter of destiny and wouldn't just perish like this, he still couldn't help but worry about her. His heart, which had long since turned cold, was now infused with a warmth by her. He didn't want to lose this only source of warmth.
"You too!" Xiao Yuge nodded, squeezed his arm, and then, leaped!
"Sister, please be careful! Remember to protect my mother well!" Little Qian also called out to her back.
"Rest assured, Seventh Highness, I will not let anything happen to your mother!"
A soft melody drifted through the air. Xiao Qian thought hard, nodding resolutely. He believed her!
"Lianxin, what's the situation outside" Qian Yi'an was calm and composed at this moment, not even a trace of his usual weakness.
"Reporting to your Lordship, the Nine Palaces... five gates have already fallen."
Although they were in the bamboo forest, they knew everything that was happening outside. They were waiting here, just for the right opportunity.
"Send a message to General Mi, ordering him to lead three thousand troops into the East Gate. The remaining troops will be divided into three groups to support the West, South, and North gates respectively. Tell them, they must succeed, there is no room for failure!"
"Yes!" Lian Xin hesitated for a moment and asked, "Your Highness, what about the Zhong Men" Everyone knew that once the Zhong Men was lost, the remaining four gates would be practically useless.
Qian Yi'an thought for a moment, then asked, "Where is Your Highness now" He knew that His Highness also understood the importance of the Zhongmen, so he would never sit idly by.
Lianxin shook her head: "People from our side say that before the Great Prince's uprising, someone saw the King in the palace, but he seemed to have fainted suddenly..." Qian Tingxuan had a poison in his body and often fainted, so everyone was already used to it.
"Little Imperial Uncle won't be in any danger, so, I leave the middle gate to him." Qian Yi'an looked as if he understood everything perfectly, calmly and methodically making arrangements. That cold and decisive appearance even made Xiao Qian Siming on the side feel a little strange about him.
"Third Brother..." Xia Qian thought subconsciously.
"Seventh brother, it's very dangerous outside right now. Just stay here and watch this woman inside. Absolutely don't let her escape!" Qian Yi'an knew that taking him out at this time would be even more dangerous. It was better to leave him here.
"Third brother, rest assured, I will definitely take good care of her and won't let her run away." Xia Qian thought seriously nodded.
"Well done, Seventh Brother!" Qian Yi patted his hand reassuringly and instructed Lianxin, "Lianxin, arrange for two people to guard Seventh Prince here. The rest of you follow me to the Yixing Hall!"
"Yes!"
After leaving the bamboo forest, Xiao Yu Ge intended to return to Chong Hua Palace to check on the situation. However, the rain intensified and darkness fell, causing her to become lost. She searched for a long time but couldn't find the path that Qian Si Ming had led her earlier. She couldn't help but feel anxious.
Walking along, suddenly I saw firelight and the sounds of fighting ahead. In that moment, I didn't care about anything else. Under the cover of darkness, I quietly crept closer.
As expected, she saw many soldiers fighting. For a moment, she couldn't tell which side to help. Just as she was anxious, she saw a familiar figure and excitedly leaped towards it.
"Mingyang!"
She slapped away the person trapped beside Mingyang and charged to his face!
"My Queen!" Ming Yang saw her, and his face also lit up with joy.
"Where's Qian Tingxuan" Xiao Yuge looked around, but she didn't see Qian Tingxuan. She couldn't help but feel a bit worried. Ming Yang had been by her side all the time, hadn't he Since Ming Yang was here, why wasn't he Had something happened
"The Master is at the Zhongmen, he asked his subordinates to come to Chonghua Palace to find you, how did you get out" Mingyang was also very surprised. He had just quietly snuck into Chonghua Palace but didn't see Xiao Yuge, and was quite anxious. When he returned, he happened to bump into Liang Wang's men here, but he didn't expect to run into her either.
"Is he alright" Xiao Yuge knew that Qian Tingxuan seemed fine now, but his body was weakening with the Empress Dowager's, making him vulnerable.
"Your Majesty, have no worry, I'm fine!"
"That's good to hear." Hearing that Qian Tingxuan was fine, Xiao Yuge finally let out a sigh of relief and then asked, "Do you know the way to Chonghuagong"
"The Chong Hua Palace is right over there!" Ming Yang pointed to the place with a bright light.
"You hurry and protect the Prince, I'm going to Chonghua Palace!" Xiao Yuge knew Qian Tingxuan was fine, so she felt relieved. Right now, she had to go to Chonghua Palace to save Mu Huan and the others.
"Your Highness, are you still going to Chong Hua Palace" Ming Yang quickly stepped in front of her: "No! My lord ordered me to protect you, I will escort you out of the palace right now!"
“No! I cannot leave the palace. I must go to Chonghua Palace. The princess from Tianzhu is still inside, along with the sons and daughters of the emperor's most trusted ministers. I have to save them. Otherwise, tomorrow the throne will truly change hands.”
At this moment, she seemed to recall that in her past life, it was about this time that King Liang suddenly rebelled. The princess of Tianzhu died because of this, directly leading to the deterioration of relations between the two countries. Afterward, Tianzhu and Chiyan joined forces, causing constant wars on the border of Lan Zhao, and the people suffered greatly. Living a second life, she couldn't let such things happen again.
“Leave this to me, Your Highness. I’m worried about your safety. Please come with me quickly.” Ming Yang only knew that he had to obey the Master's orders now and escort the Princess safely out of the palace. If anything happened to the Princess, I’m afraid the King would be the first to go mad.tly onto her mother Shen Mei Hua's neck, staring at those menacing black-clad men with fear.“Little Guier, don’t be afraid, mother is here.” Shen Mei shed tears, her face full of sorrow, as she held...
