The Time Traveling Prince Consort Plans to Rule the World for Me
Chapter 214 Conflict
Su Yi had just sent Mu Jin back to the princess's mansion, and without even having time to change his clothes, he hurried to the palace.
As he expected, Lin Zhengyong tried to break into the Longxian Palace to confirm whether Emperor Nan Gaozong was really injured as he said.
"The emperor has expressly forbidden all ministers from entering, but you insisted on breaking in. Are you trying to rebel?" Su Yi asked loudly.
Lin Zhengyong's eyes widened as he stared at Su Yi, angrily saying, "Rebellion? Are you secretly colluding with Yuanlu to put the emperor under house arrest in an attempt to rebel?"
Su Yi raised his lips slightly and asked, "So, you are determined to break into the Dragon's Saliva Palace?"
Lin Zhengyong responded arrogantly: "This general only wants to confirm whether the emperor is lying safely in the Ambergris Palace. I have not done anything disrespectful to the emperor."
"Once I have gone in to confirm that the emperor is well, I will leave the Ambergris Palace. I wonder if the young prince can give me a favor?"
Su Yi stared at Lin Zhengyong coldly, his voice as cold as ice: "If this king doesn't allow it, what will you do?"
"Then don't blame me for being ruthless!" Lin Zhengyong said, then shouted loudly and slammed Su Yi with his palm.
Su Yi was agile and dodged Lin Zhengyong's attack. He turned around and punched Lin Zhengyong in the back. Lin Zhengyong's body trembled, but he quickly stabilized his body, quickly pulled out the sword from the guard in front of the palace and swung it at Su Yi to counterattack.
Su Yi has a special identity and can carry a sword when walking in the palace. When he saw Lin Zhengyong draw his sword, he quickly drew his own sword and went to meet him.
Both of them were extremely skilled in swordsmanship, and when the tips of their swords intersected, there was a crisp sound of metallic collision.
They struck rapidly beside the ministers, the sword lights interweaving like dragons and snakes, forming a thrilling scene.
The air in the palace seemed to be vibrating because of their sword energy, and every confrontation was terrifying.
During this fierce confrontation, Su Yi always blocked the bedroom of the Ambergris Palace, not giving Lin Zhengyong any chance to rush in.
His swordsmanship was both fierce and delicate, and every attack was just right to repel Lin Zhengyong, preventing him from taking even a single step forward.
Although Lin Zhengyong was fierce, he could not gain the upper hand in front of Su Yi.
"Young Prince, General Lin, please stop fighting. The Emperor is recovering from his injuries in there. Let's talk it over nicely." The ministers nearby anxiously advised the two to stop fighting.
In fact, at this point in the fight, Lin Zhengyong's breathing began to become rapid, like the whirring sound of an old bellows.
Although he was a general of the Southern Shu Kingdom, there had been no war in the Southern Shu Kingdom for many years, and no one had fought him head-on for a long time. At this moment, under Su Yi's swift and violent attack, his steps gradually became disordered.
Su Yi did not want to fight with Lin Zhengyong for too long. Seeing that Lin Zhengyong's breath was unstable, Su Yi found an opportunity and stabbed Lin Zhengyong's shoulder with a sword.
Lin Zhengyong screamed, and the long sword in his hand flew out. He covered his wound and looked at Su Yi unwillingly.
Lin Jingtian rushed forward at this moment, supported Lin Zhengyong, and then knelt down and kowtowed to Su Yi to apologize, saying: "Please calm down, young prince, and spare my father."
"My father was also extremely worried for the emperor's health, so he lost his mind. He had no intention of disobeying the emperor or disrespecting the young prince."
The corners of Su Yi's mouth rose slightly, revealing a cold smile.
"Whether you are really worried about the emperor or not, only you know in your hearts. What you did today is worthy of the extermination of your entire clan."
When Lin Jingtian heard this, he felt like he was struck by lightning, and his back stiffened. However, Lin Zhengyong showed contempt on his face, and just as he was about to open his mouth to argue, Lin Jingtian was quick to grab him.
Several ministers who were on good terms with the Lin family were also terrified and knelt down, begging Su Yi to calm down.
Little Prince, calm down. This incident was indeed General Lin's fault. However, he did not intend to be disrespectful to the emperor and you. He heard that the emperor was ill and was extremely worried. He was afraid that something might happen to the emperor. This is a manifestation of General Lin's loyalty to the emperor and his patriotism. He was so anxious that he accidentally bumped into you.
"I hope that the young prince will forgive General Lin's reckless behavior this time, considering the Lin family and General Lin's loyalty to the Southern Shu Kingdom and the emperor over the years."
"Is this what the ministers want, or is this what General Lin wants?" Su Yi looked coldly at the person kneeling in front of him to plead for Lin Zhengyong.
Lu Changwei smiled apologetically and said to Su Yi, "General Lin naturally means the same thing." Then he tugged at Lin Zhengyong's sleeve, signaling Lin Zhengyong to beg Su Yi for mercy.
How could a man as proud and arrogant as Lin Zhengyong take Su Yi seriously? However, today's incident happened suddenly, and he entered the palace without consulting his staff. Now thinking back to how he was so impulsive just now, it was also because of Su Yi's anger.
Thinking of this, Lin Zhengyong clenched his fists, veins popping out, but he gritted his teeth and kowtowed to Su Yi unwillingly, "Please forgive me, my lord. I was indeed reckless just now because I was worried about the emperor. I apologize to you again. I will punish you as you wish."
Su Yi looked coldly at Lin Zhengyong who looked unwilling, took a few steps forward and walked in front of Lin Zhengyong.
He lowered his head and looked down at Lin Zhengyong with a cold gaze for a long time before he sneered: "Forget it, I think you care about the emperor, so I did such a rash thing. I won't bother with you this time. If there is a next time, don't blame me for turning my face and being ruthless."
Several people knelt on the ground and nodded repeatedly.
"Everyone, go down. When the emperor wakes up, I will send someone to notify all the ministers."
The ministers looked at each other, still unmoved. At this time, Lu Changwei walked up to Su Yi with a smile on his face.
"Young Prince, it's not that we want to disobey you, but we are worried about the emperor. We haven't seen him and feel uneasy. Can you let us go in and take a look at the emperor from a distance?"
Su Yi sneered, "You are so persistent in wanting to see the emperor, but it's just that you don't trust me."
Lu Changwei repeatedly said that he didn't dare, but it seemed that if he didn't let them in to take a look today, they would probably stay in this Ambergris Palace and refuse to leave.
Su Yi thought for a moment and then said, "Forget it. Don't blame me for being unkind. I can allow one of you to go in with me and take a look at the emperor from a distance. As for who to let in, it's up to you to decide."
As soon as Su Yi finished speaking, the ministers expressed their hope that they could go in. Su Yi raised his hand to signal the ministers to be quiet.
"Since you are so indecisive, let me make the choice." Su Yi glanced at the ministers surrounding him, suddenly sneered, and said, "Then let Lord Lu go in with me."
All the ministers were stunned when they heard this. No one expected that Su Yi would choose to let Lu Changwei enter the Dragon's Saliva Palace with him. You know, Lu Changwei is in the same camp as Lin Shiyong. Letting Lu Changwei enter the Dragon's Saliva Palace is tantamount to letting Lin Shiyong enter.
Seeing that the ministers were stunned, Su Yi asked again: "What do you think? Do you have any opinions?"
The ministers who reacted said they dared not to do so. In this way, Yuanlu led Su Yi and Lu Changwei into the Ambergris Palace.
As soon as the three entered the room, they smelled a strong smell of blood. From afar, they saw several imperial doctors surrounding the dragon bed, carefully twisting handkerchiefs to wipe the body of Emperor Gaozong who was lying on the dragon bed.
Coincidentally, an imperial physician passed by the three people holding up a basin of dirty water used for scrubbing from the dragon bed. The blood in the basin was shocking enough.
Several people couldn't help but frown.
