Chen Dongyue, who was standing at the city gate at this time, saw that the cavalry showed no sign of slowing down.

She yelled, "It's over, it's coming towards us! Hide quickly!"

The workers who were stunned by the situation all ran to both sides of the newly paved road.

Chen Dongyue was pulled hard by Song Ke and almost fell into his arms.

Fortunately~~~she had a stable chassis, and after stumbling for a while, she managed to steady herself.

At the same time, Ji Chongning's leading horse stopped right in front of Chen Dongyue.

Chen Dongyue, who had just stabilized himself, did not even bother to say hello, and hurriedly asked: "Old Ji, what happened?! Who is in that coffin?! It can't be Kang......"

"Chen Dongyue!!!!"

A head with messy hair, haggard face, untidy beard and something unknown in the corner of its mouth popped out from a carriage at the back.

what.

Resurrected.

His Royal Highness Prince Kang.

Chen Dongyue’s eyes widened.

Then King Kang shouted, "Chen Dongyue!!! Hurry up, have someone close the city gate!!! But why was our city gate moved here?!"

A sharp female voice came from the carriage: "It's already this late, and you still care where the city gate is! Quick, quick, close the city gate!!!"

This sound.

Vaguely, as if, seemingly, maybe, probably, if I heard correctly...

Is it the gentle, demure, dignified and generous Princess Kang? !

"What happened? Who is in the coffin?!"

At this critical moment, Song Ke showed some composure.

Ji Chongning dismounted without answering Song Ke's question.

Instead, he turned around and said to a middle-aged young man beside him who was dressed in white but had a noble temperament: "Sir, take the people to the palace quickly. Leave this to me."

"Okay." The man responded, and then led a team of hundreds of horsemen and continued forward.

At this time, Chen Dongyue discovered that all the carriages were very gorgeous.

Normally, the carriage of Prince Kang's palace was pulled by three horses.

This is the regulation of the prince of Darong Dynasty.

It's already considered very advanced.

However, there was a huge carriage in this horse team, and there were five horses pulling the carriage.

What's happening here? !

King Kang is not dead.

Then who died? !

And there is the prince.

What prince?

Prince Kang?

But shouldn't he be a hostage in the capital, unable to leave without an imperial decree?

Help.

What kind of disaster did Ji Chongning get into? !

Chen Dongyue couldn't help herself and rushed to Ji Chongning in two steps. Then she pushed his face against hers and asked loudly, "Ji Chongning, you'd better tell me right now what happened! Otherwise, I really will..."

I don’t know what to do.

This person is truly incompetent and furious.

Fortunately, at this time, the cavalry of hundreds of people had already entered the city.

The carriage followed Prince Kang's carriage and the coffin to Prince Kang's palace.

Judging from their attire, the two hundred or so people left behind should all be guards or something like that.

While Ji Chongning was directing people to close the city gates quickly, he quickly replied, "It's a long story."

"Long story short." Chen Dongyue was so anxious that he couldn't get any answer. He probably would suffocate to death.

"Okay," Ji Chongning stopped his busy work, then glanced at Song Ke who was standing next to Chen Dongyue, then looked into Chen Dongyue's eyes and said, "The news from the capital is that the emperor has passed away."

“…What the hell?!”

Chen Dongyue's mind was in a complete mess.

Before, when Magistrate Meng often received news that the emperor was seriously ill, she naturally thought that the emperor might be dying soon.

But when she heard that the emperor had really passed away, she was very surprised.

what happened?

What on earth am I surprised about?

Chen Dongyue reflected on his ups and downs of emotions.

Then she realized that she was not actually surprised that the emperor had died.

Instead, she was surprised that it was Ji Chongning who came back to Liaocheng from the capital with a large group of people to tell her about the emperor's death.

A huge sense of uneasiness, like a storm, slowly rose in Chen Dongyue's heart.

At this time, Song Ke was so frightened that his eyes became sharp.

He confirmed with Ji Chongning again: "Young Master, are you saying that the Emperor has passed away?! Then why are the Prince and the Crown Prince back at this time?

What about the coffin you brought with you?"

"The coffin is a Nine Dragon Coffin." Ji Chongning replied indifferently.

"What?!" Song Ke almost jumped up, "Did you steal the emperor's coffin?!"

Chen Dongyue: "Song Ke, don't say such harsh words." Ji Chongning corrected Song Ke: "How can this be called robbery? After all, there is no body in the coffin."

"What?!" Song Ke was about to collapse.

Chen Dongyue continued: She thought of a question: "What about the dragon corpse?"

.......

Dragon corpse.

How could she have come up with that word?

If it weren't for the wrong atmosphere, Ji Chongning almost laughed out loud.

But now is a critical moment, success or failure depends on this one move, Ji Chongning said in a deep voice with a sullen face: "What dragon corpse? Don't talk nonsense, the royal grandfather is fine."

Apart from being unconscious and breathing weakly, everything else is fine.

.......

Chen Dongyue, who had endured it again and again, finally couldn't bear it anymore. She raised her foot...but saw Geng Hui, with a face as black as charcoal and a sword in his hand, looking at her expressionlessly.

After thinking about it, Chen Dongyue decided not to kick Ji Chongning on the butt.

She was afraid that if she kicked him, Geng Hui would chop off her hoof.

But since his feet were already lifted up, how could Chen Dongyue put them down easily? Wouldn't that be very embarrassing?

So she...looked at Song Ke.

For some reason, Song Ke suddenly felt a shiver all over his body. He quickly asked Ji Chongning, "Sir, can you please talk to us nicely? Otherwise, we don't know how to cooperate with you. Please tell me what happened to the emperor."

Chen Dongyue raised her foot and secretly put it down while Song Ke was talking.

"Okay," Ji Chongning nodded and said, "My royal grandfather has been seriously ill for more than a month. His condition took a turn for the worse yesterday. The Imperial Hospital said that my royal grandfather will not live for more than three days.

However, the crown prince had not yet been decided, and both the Prince of Qi and the Prince of Ning were planning to break into the palace at night and then issue a false imperial edict.

As a result, the two teams met at the gate of the imperial city... They both accused each other of being traitors.

Then the fight started.

The Empress Dowager saw that the time was ripe... No, that one, seeing that the Emperor's grandfather was in danger, she ordered people to send the Emperor's grandfather out late at night.

After much thought, the Grandmother still felt that His Royal Highness Prince Kang was the most reliable, so she called everyone in Prince Kang's mansion in the middle of the night and ran out together. "

“........” Chen Dongyue could not express any opinion.

She has to say it.

She only wanted to say two words: crazy.

Why were the ancients so crazy!

When others were fighting for the throne, Ji Chongning and his grandmother ran over and snatched the emperor away.

Was the coffin brought out with the emperor in case he died on the way and had nothing to put in it?!

Song Ke couldn't say a word for a long time after listening.

Finally, he could only utter one sentence, "What should I do next?"

"......Everything will work itself out when the time comes." Ji Chongning replied.

Chen Dongyue's legs went limp and he sat down on the ground.

what! ! ! !

What kind of fate is this for her!!!

People from the royal family, can you be more reliable!!!

Help! ! !
