Chapter 269: The King's Seal Belongs to Him 3, Enemy at the Gate

For the next two days, Song Ying was kept under the control of Wanyan Zangdong. Song Ying had no objection to this at all, as she also wanted it this way.

Only by staying with Wanyan can she get the latest news and the whereabouts of the royal seal. If she fails to find the royal seal in the end, she can only use the one in her backpack.

The army led by the Wei family arrived first and encountered no obstacles when entering the city. However, they surrounded the palace but did not attack it. They must have waited for others to arrive before entering together.

The fact that the palace was surrounded but not attacked made many people in the palace panic. Some people were even caught by Eunuch Wei and stole things from the palace and tried to escape.

Song Ying felt that those who were captured had acted too early. They should at least wait until the enemy attacked and then escape in the chaos.

Song Ying's attitude was that she was not worried at all, and this action attracted Wanyan Zangdong's attention to a certain extent.

Wanyan did not spend the past two days in a life of debauchery, but stayed in the study. Song Ying did not dare to approach him and had no idea what he was dealing with.

One night, Song Ying even heard someone visiting Wanyan Zangdong at night. Judging from the content of the conversation, the other party should be from the Situ family, and they came to determine the next steps of the cooperation.

They didn't say anything at the key points and wrote everything down. Song Ying couldn't hear them and didn't know what they were plotting, which caused Song Ying to be tense the next day.

This was already her fourth day in the plot station, and also the second day that the Wei family had been besieging but not attacking. The news coming in from outside was that the Helian family and the Yong family had arrived, leaving only the Situ family.

In fact, from Song Ying's perspective, the Situ family was the first to arrive, otherwise there would be no time to make arrangements.

Song Ying found evidence of the destruction of the royal seal. When she was helping Wanyan clean the study, she saw a box. She accidentally opened the box and found a broken seal inside, with the words on it still faintly visible.

This also verified what Wanyan Zangdong said on the first day he came here about the destruction of the royal seal.

Wanyan Zangdong saw Song Ying's action of accidentally knocking over the box and opening it. He just smiled and said nothing and did nothing.

Eunuch Wei standing by naturally saw it as well, and was stopped when he wanted to say something.

When Song Ying felt Wanyan's gaze, she secretly cried out in disbelief. She didn't even hear any sound when this person came back.

In fact, it’s not that Song Ying didn’t hear it, but she was just more focused on finding something.

"Chang Xiu, now that they are at the gates of the city, how about I let you out?"

Song Ying was a little dazed holding the box. This question was totally not Wanyan Zangdong's style, and Song Ying couldn't make up her mind for a moment.

He knelt on the ground and apologized for accidentally opening the box, while thinking about how to answer the questions raised by Wanyan Zangdong.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace."

Song Ying felt that since the royal seal had been broken, it would not be impossible for her to go out now and then take the royal seal with her to find the Yong family.

"you……"

Wanyan Zangdong originally thought that Chang Xiu would not leave. After all, she needed to obtain intelligence, and might even stab him in the back at a critical moment. She never expected that this person would agree to leave the palace so readily.

Song Ying felt a chill down her spine when she saw Wanyan Zangdong's sinister gaze. She wondered if it would be best for her to stay.

"Do you really want to go out? You're dreaming. I won't let you go."

Wanyan Zangdong angrily swung his sleeves and left. Song Ying was full of questions. What on earth was this person thinking about? What did he say was so strange? What did he mean by "I won't let you go"? Isn't this something that only domineering CEOs would say?

After seeing the people leave, Song Ying stood up and put the opened box back to its original place, then put it away when no one was around.

Since Wanyan Zangdong wouldn't let her leave the palace, she could only wait here for them to come in.

It rained heavily at night. Song Ying looked at the rain and thought of the palace coup she had participated in before, except that it was daytime at that time, but now it was night.

Song Ying's good hearing allowed her to hear some shouting coming from a palace very far away. Those people should have taken advantage of the rainy night when defenses were not high to come in, and they came from the direction of the palace where there were relatively few people.

Song Ying, who had been awakened, did not sleep anymore. He got up, changed his clothes, and checked his equipment.

When Song Ying saw the half piece of the military token, he remembered that Wanyan had one. He could try to get it later to see if he could close it. If he could, it would not be impossible to give it to the Yong family.

Song Ying walked towards the front hall with an umbrella, but unexpectedly she was stopped by Eunuch Liang halfway.

"Oh, why did the girl run out by herself? Go back quickly. His Majesty said that she is not needed there."

Eunuch Liang obviously came to stop Chang Xiu from going forward. His level of nervousness meant that something had happened ahead.

Song Ying didn't say anything in front of him, just thanked him and walked back. When she got back to the house, she deliberately closed the door, put on her cloak, and ran quickly to the front through the back window.

Along the way, Song Ying chose to walk in places with corridors. She didn't want to go through the rain and not get wet but leave a puddle of water behind for others to notice.

When I arrived at Wanyan Zangdong's study, there was no one there, only a few candles adding some light to the study.

Song Ying looked around for a while to make sure there was no one around, then immediately went in to find the military token, which perfectly matched the one in her hand.

She would not put the things back. She just took them and walked out of the study towards the main hall.

I heard voices before I even got there.

"Situ Rongzhi, I think you don't know anything at all. It's simply a foolish dream for you to want to get this position in your current state."

Wanyan Zangdong's voice was so sarcastic that Song Ying could even hear Situ Rongzhi's suddenly heavier breathing.

"I've already told you that I've destroyed the royal seal. Even if you come to me now without telling the other three families, I won't be able to give it to you."

"Besides, did Yong Miao, Wei Shuicheng, and Helian Wangsong really not know that you were going to the palace today? Are you naive or stupid?"

After Wanyan Zangdong finished speaking, he made a clicking sound to irritate Situ Rongzhi.

Song Ying, who was listening from a distance, could imagine how much Wanyan Zangdong's expression asked for a beating, and he almost wanted to beat him up.

"You...are going too far. Do you want to break the agreement between us?"

After saying this, Situ Rongzhi shook his wide sleeves.

Song Ying naturally heard the sound of the sleeves, but it was amazing that this person could go out in such heavy rain wearing such complicated and cumbersome clothes with big sleeves.

"Is there any agreement between us? You would have done what you did even without the agreement, and what did I get? Death? I think you are the one who should die first."

Wanyan Zangdong really didn't take their cooperation seriously, so it's only natural for him to regret it now.
