One touch and one silence

"You can find a way to get them out first, and I'll meet you outside."

Yu Qinglin's face looked a little ugly. This guy might be...

Dai Rong smiled softly, "Okay! I'll find an opportunity then."

That was impossible. The border only allowed people to come in but not to leave. Even he had no way to deal with it.

It all depends on God’s will!

"By the way, I got a piece of gossip. I don't know if it's true or not, and I don't have time to investigate it right now. I'm afraid our neighboring country, the Great Saint Dynasty, is trying to take advantage of the situation. I hope the general will not be careless."

Dai Rong's face was a little ugly. He didn't want to talk about the unconfirmed news, but what if it was true? Then the Great Ling Dynasty would be in trouble both internally and externally, and it would be hopeless. Thinking of this, he felt that the time was almost up, so he said, "General, please stab me with a sword so that I can go back and report."

Yu Qinglin had no choice. He knew that this was for his own good, so he took the sword in his hand and stabbed forward coldly.

When he pulled out the tip of the sword, blood instantly sprayed on his horse's head.

"Thank you, General."

Dai Rong fled weakly on his horse. Yu Qinglin did not chase him. Instead, he shouted to these people, using his inner strength, "Brothers of the Great Ling Dynasty, you are all good men of our Great Ling Dynasty. The Prince of Zhennan wants to rebel. Use your bodies to pave the way for his master to ascend to the throne."

"But our emperor is a good emperor. Why do you have to disregard your life for a traitor? Think about your parents and brothers. This is a sin against all nine generations of your clan."

"I am Yu Qinglin, the general of the Great Ling Dynasty. I keep my word. If you come back, we in the Great Ling Dynasty will still be tolerant and forgive you for your past mistakes."

If Dai Rong wasn't there, he wouldn't dare reveal his identity.

Now that we know that Dai Rong is Lin Mingxiao's right-hand man, there is nothing to be afraid of.

Even though his number of people was less than one-third of the number of the Prince of Zhennan, he was not afraid.

It's not like he hasn't done things like using a small force to defeat a larger one.

Dai Rong fainted on the horse's back, and his frightened guards quickly caught him and carried him down.

"alert!"

"Send someone back to report to the general that your majesty's men have arrived at the border."

After saying that, he quickly laid Dai Rong down and asked the military doctor to treat him.

He looked at the general who had just taken office not far away. He was hidden in the darkness, with a strong back, sitting straight on the horse, which made him feel a little timid.

They had just walked out of the border gate and just stretched out their hands a little when His Majesty's men stopped them.

Then can the general and the prince still succeed?

He thought about his family behind him, and it was impossible for him not to feel fear.

Now he didn't know how many people the general brought with him, and he felt unsure.

Deputy General Dai has fainted. What should we do?

Finally, he gritted his teeth and decided to go back and report to the general and the prince first.

"withdraw!"

Chen Yufei looked at their receding backs and glanced at the general, but the general did not stop them.

Isn't this the general's style?

"Let's go! Get ready. I'm afraid someone will be here in two days."

Yu Qinglin's voice was very soft, so soft that it could be heard particularly clearly in the silent night.

"Since the general knew they were coming, why did he let them go back?"

Chen Yufei scratched his forehead, he really didn't know.

"You'll know then."

"Okay!" Chen Yufei followed Yu Qinglin back with little interest.

It was not until all of them were led into the forest that Chen Yufei heard Yu Qinglin's instructions.

"Let's find a place tonight and move to another place tomorrow morning. It's not safe here anymore." The weather is dry in winter, and if a fire breaks out, the consequences will be beyond his imagination.

Chen Yufei nodded and left Yu Qinglin.

He didn't want his own people to fight against each other. In the past two days, he heard that the neighboring country had taken action.

Thinking of Lin Mingxiao and others, this matter can only be resolved as soon as possible. I'm afraid your Majesty will need reinforcements here.

An hour later, a Saker Falcon flew out of the forest, headed towards Kyoto, and disappeared into the night.

In the Cining Palace, a woman dressed in black quietly left the palace and went to the Qingyue Palace.

Cheng Yueqing was sleeping soundly when she was suddenly woken up by Meixiang, her face showing an unhappy expression.

"What's the matter? Why are you so panicked?"

"My queen, the queen mother is here!"

Cheng Yueqing was startled, "Who?"

"The Queen Mother!"

Meixiang repeated it again.

Cheng Yueqing frowned. Why did the Queen Mother suddenly come to see her in the middle of the night?

"Hmph! Come on, follow me to meet my good aunt."

Meixiang quickly put a cloak on the empress. As soon as she walked into the main hall, she saw the woman sitting on the seat of honor drinking tea casually.

She curved her lips and smiled.

"Why did Aunt come to Qing'er's place tonight?"

"Last time Qing'er wanted to visit you, she was stopped by the nanny beside you."

"Let them all go down. I have something to tell you." The Queen Mother put down the teacup, her expression extremely serious.

Cheng Yueqing looked at the old woman. She wanted to see what she had to say.

I couldn't help but chuckle in my heart.

Could it be that he knew that his son was planning a rebellion?

Ha ha!

Is this a request for her?

Meixiang went downstairs tactfully and waved to the other maids to leave.

The Queen Mother looked at her niece whom she hadn't seen for several months. She had indeed lost a lot of weight. It was true that she was sick as people said.

She walked up to Cheng Yueqing with a warm smile on her face.

"Why is Qing'er so distant from Aunt? She used to act like a spoiled child to Aunt and wanted her treasures."

"Qing'er was still young at that time and didn't know the seriousness of the matter. Please don't laugh at me, aunt."

After saying this, Cheng Yueqing pulled her cloak closer, feeling a little embarrassed.

"I wonder if Auntie has something to do that brings her here dressed like this late at night?"

She had been in the palace for so many years, and this aunt had never acted like this before. It must be something big.

"In fact, I didn't want to tell you about this, but I couldn't bear to see you deceived by the emperor, so I came here at night."

"You also know that during this period, I was imprisoned in the Cining Palace by the emperor and was not allowed to contact the outside world."

"Hey!"

"Speaking of which, this matter is still related to you. Do you remember the story of your first child?"

Cheng Yueqing's eyes suddenly became sharp. She lowered her head and wiped the corners of her eyes with her sleeve.

"That was my first child. How could I, as a mother, not remember him?" Cheng Yueqing lowered her head and choked with sobs.

"You can't sit on the throne of queen, so you should know that the emperor will not let you give birth to his child. Your aunt is the queen mother. If you give birth to a child, what do you think will happen?"

"He is naturally afraid of the monopoly of power by his relatives by marriage." Cheng Yueqing replied painfully to the Queen Mother's words.

The Queen Mother gently stroked Cheng Yueqing's thin face, "Silly girl, think about it, he made you experience the hardship and joy of pregnancy, and then let you experience the pain of loss. Qing'er, the emperor has never been sincere to you, don't be silly anymore."

Cheng Yueqing sneered in her heart. Wasn't it you who had been urging her to marry the emperor? Do you really think she is still the thirteen or fourteen-year-old who is easy to control?

Her tears slowly slid down her pale cheeks like pearls from a broken string. Cheng Yueqing covered her mouth in grief, her body swaying like a candle in the wind.

The Queen Mother was very satisfied. She was sarcastic in her heart, but her face still showed an expression of heartache.

"Qing'er, even though I am his biological mother, he can still imprison me. This is because I recently found out that he replaced your child with a dead baby while you were weak after giving birth."
