Remarry 9,000 Years Old

Everyone at the scene was stunned.

Although she had expected that the Ninth Prince had ill intentions, he dared to break into the harem, which was simply a act of courting death.

Shen Nanqiao's heart moved. The Ninth Prince's wife was humiliated the day before yesterday. Given the Ninth Prince's love for his wife, he was afraid that he would not be able to tolerate it.

Before he finished speaking, the commander of the imperial guards rushed in in two or three steps.

"Master, something terrible has happened. Sajin Bridge has been breached."

The Duke of Zhenguo lost his temper and stood up first, speaking with a cold face.

"He thinks that I have no one in Great Chu, and the few soldiers guarding the border dare to break into the palace. Let me go and meet this kid!"

Ning Su pondered for a moment.

Sajin Bridge is still some distance away from the Qianqing Palace. If we lead troops to destroy it now, it should be the best time.

but……

"The emperor is still not awake, so it's not appropriate for others to make the decision on their own." Ning Su looked at everyone and said, "Let's discuss it together before making a decision."

Shen Nanqiao was shocked.

At this critical juncture, Ning Su is still playing Tai Chi. Is he going to sit and wait for death?

But seeing that Prince Cheng and Grand Tutor Xia didn't seem very anxious, he felt a little confused.

The enemy is at the gates, so right now we should wake up Emperor Ming?

After Ning Su finished speaking, he motioned for the imperial physician to go in and take a look at the situation.

After a while, the imperial physician came out and shook his head in embarrassment.

"The emperor is already semi-conscious. If we want to wake him up now, we can only use golden needles to prick his acupuncture points."

These senior officials who played an important role in the court were all silent for a long while before Taifu Xia cleared his throat and spoke.

"Since the emperor has lost consciousness and is unable to take charge, call the prince."

Everyone nodded, after all, he was the crown prince.

Ning Su nodded slightly, and while sending someone to invite the prince, he gave instructions to the commander of the imperial guards.

"Move half of the imperial guards to the main gate of Sajin Bridge, and the rest of the troops go straight to the Queen Mother's palace and put the person under house arrest."

At the moment, there is no evidence to prove that the Queen Mother and the Ninth Prince are in collusion.

So Ning Su had no choice but to put the person under house arrest and wait for the emperor and the prince to speak.

King Cheng nodded approvingly. This son-in-law was not stupid. He knew that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.

They are good people, they are nominally mother and son, don't try to catch the fox and end up with something fishy.

Although the Duke of Zhenguo did not know the whole story, he knew that if the Ninth Prince succeeded in the palace coup today, they would not end up well.

Since we are all in the same boat, we should unite as one.

The prince was quickly invited over. He didn't even bother to tidy up his hair that was messed up by the wind, and rushed to Ning Su's side.

"Otomo, how is father?"

"The emperor is half-fainted right now, and I'm afraid he can't handle the situation. I have called all the old ministers I can. How to deal with it depends on your Highness's opinion."

The prince panicked upon hearing this.

Ning Su held his shoulders and spoke in a deep voice, enunciating each word.

"Before the Emperor fainted, he had already planned to draft an edict."

The implied meaning is self-evident.

The prince knew very well that as the crown prince, the day when he would be in charge would come sooner or later, so he calmed himself down and asked.

"How many soldiers can be mobilized in the palace right now?"

"Six thousand." Ning Su glanced at the Duke of Zhenguo, "There are about seventy thousand troops that can be mobilized outside the palace."

Prince Cheng immediately responded.

"The Yanyun Guards can immediately enter the palace to provide reinforcements."

The prince rubbed his brows.

"Hurry up and call everyone you can into the palace. The Ninth Prince only has 40,000 soldiers and horses. Naturally, he cannot defeat the 70,000 soldiers of the Great Chu."

As soon as he said this, several old ministers looked at him strangely.

The prince felt quite frightened and said awkwardly.

"Did I say something wrong?"

Everyone looked at each other, and finally Prince Cheng stood up and spoke carefully.

"Old Nine brought Tatar envoys with him. There must be more than 40,000 troops here to join forces. If all the troops are transferred to the palace to resist, I'm afraid..."

The prince also knew that he had made a mistake.

There were flames in the direction of Sajin Bridge and the sound of weapons could be heard faintly. He became more and more nervous and looked at Ning Su for help.

"Otomo, please think of a solution. The palace cannot be lost!"

Ning Su sighed in his heart.

Originally, I gave him the opportunity to appear in front of all the old ministers, but it seems that he is still a little too young.

He caught a glimpse of Shen Nanqiao standing aside with a tense expression on his face, and he was not prepared to let his wife worry any more.

"Let the elite guards of the factory be divided into three groups. One group will follow the Duke of Zhenguo and go out of the city to block the Tartar squad. If necessary, veteran soldiers from the suburbs can be called in."

The Duke of Zhenguo was encouraged and left after taking the order.

"The second group will head straight to Sajin Bridge, following Prince Cheng, to reinforce the Imperial Guards."

Shen Nanqiao looked at King Cheng worriedly. After all, he was not in his prime. What if something happened to him...

Ning Su patted her shoulder soothingly.

"Prince Cheng has done a favor to the Ninth Prince, so even if he cannot resist, his life will not be in danger."

Prince Cheng rolled his eyes at him unhappily, as if he was using him as a shield.

"Take good care of my daughter. If even a hair falls, I will hold you responsible."

At this time, the intermittent coughing of Emperor Ming was heard from the inner hall.

Several civil officials escorted the prince in, while the military generals left the main hall one after another according to Ning Su's arrangement.

Ning Su glanced at the jade clepsydra in the hall. It was three quarters of an hour before midnight.

If King Cheng can stop it, there will be results around midnight.

What if I can't resist...

He reached out and pulled Shen Nanqiao over.

"From now on, follow me closely, understand?"

Shen Nanqiao nodded vigorously. What she feared most was that Ning Su would place her in a so-called safe place at this time.

"Don't worry, I won't take a single step."

The Qianqing Palace was still some distance away, but Ning Su still made two preparations.

"The remaining team of factory guards will protect you with all their strength."

After settling down, Liuyun came to report.

"The Ninth Prince is leading his troops to fight the Imperial Guards outside the inner city. It seems that the casualties are not that many." He paused, "Depending on the situation, they may have to fight their way in through the Fengtian Gate."

Fengtian Gate is the main gate.

All traitors want to justify themselves.

Therefore, even if the attack from Sajin Bridge is faster, the Ninth Prince will most likely choose to go through Fengtian Gate.

Ning Su had guessed this a long time ago. He showed a visible smile and turned back to raise his eyebrows at Shen Nanqiao.

"Do you dare to come with me and wait for him head-on?"

Shen Nanqiao didn't even think about it and put his hand in the other person's arm.

"I can't ask for it."
