Chapter 143 Hostages
Jiang Li hurried to Wangyue Tower.
She suddenly stopped.
Who did she see?
Not far ahead, there was an official being held hostage by the rebels. Wasn’t he her adoptive father Jiang Xiuyuan?
Jiang Xiuyuan was kidnapped and dragged away by the rebels. I was so scared that my soul was gone. I thought my life was over!
Suddenly, a man in black came like a ghost, with sword light as bright as snow in front of him. The head of the rebel holding him flew off in an instant, spraying hot blood all over his head and face.
Jiang Xiuyuan was so scared that he closed his eyes tightly and dared not move.
Jiang Xiuyuan only heard the black-clothed person giggling. The laughter was clear and pleasant, and it was clearly a woman's!
He opened his eyes in surprise. The woman was wearing the nightgown of the Eastern Depot and a mask. She was actually a female secret guard!
The female secret guard raised her lips slightly, revealing a sinister smile: "Father, are you still alive?"
Jiang Xiuyuan was stunned. Who was this? He actually called him "Dad"?
I saw that the other person was petite and familiar, and was in the palace, could it be...
"Ari?" he called in a trembling voice.
"Dad, you have to live well!"
Jiang Li chuckled and said, "Wait for me to come find you and settle the accounts..."
"Little raccoon slave!"
Xie Changan flew over and asked, "Didn't I tell you to stay in Wangyue Tower? Why are you running around again?"
He glanced at Jiang Xiuyuan and was a little surprised, "Master Jiang?"
He glanced at Jiang Li, who had a sneer on her face, and walked over to protect her behind him.
Jiang Xiuyuan was still in shock that his little daughter had become a secret guard of the Eastern Depot. Seeing that it was Xie Changan, he said in a trembling voice, "Master Xie..."
Xie Changan said impatiently: "It's dangerous here, Lord Jiang, find a place to hide first."
He pulled Jiang Li: "Let's go!"
The two of them touched the ground with their toes and instantly flew several feet away.
When encountering rebels, Xie Changan killed them one by one with his sword, as if he were chopping melons and vegetables.
Jiang Li did the same. A bright sword flashed and a head flew up.
Seeing these two evil stars killing people everywhere and blood flowing like a river, Jiang Xiuyuan trembled in his heart.
He never expected that his little daughter, who was as weak and timid as a delicate flower before entering the palace, would actually become a master of the East Depot who kills people without blinking an eye!
When he heard her say, "Wait for me to come find you and settle the score," he was even more shocked. Was A-li hating them?
Why did she become a secret guard of the Eastern Depot? And where did she get such amazing kung fu skills?
Xie Changan was just about to send Jiang Li back to Wangyue Tower when a little eagle flew over and said, "Oh no! The King of Qi has held the Crown Princess and the Queen hostage in Hua'e Tower!"
The two were startled, and Jiang Li asked, "Isn't the Queen in Fengyi Palace?"
It was Concubine Zhou's birthday, so she naturally would not let Empress Zhang appear at her birthday party, so as not to overshadow her.
Xiaoying said, "They went to Fengyi Palace and captured the Queen!"
The two men looked stern and hurriedly ran towards Hua'e Tower.
Nangong Xihe is very anxious now.
His and Dao Haisheng's plan was to gather all civil and military officials, princes and nobles to the imperial palace during Concubine Zhou's birthday banquet.
Then let the imperial guards who obey their orders surround the palace and control everyone inside the palace. It would be best if they could take advantage of the chaos to kill the crown prince and Queen Zhang.
Then, he would let the old emperor abdicate to him in public, and would kill anyone who disagreed. He wanted to ascend the throne to become the emperor today!
They thought their plan was perfect, but a rooster appeared out of nowhere and ruined their entire plan!
It turned out that the Duke of Zhenguo and Zhang Huai were also well prepared, and the military forces they controlled were no less than theirs!
At this time, the damn rooster was still crowing. For some reason, the sound was so loud that the whole palace was echoing with its high-pitched crowing.
The poisonous insects in his body were trembling and hiding everywhere, causing his hands and feet to become weak and his blood to boil.
Dao Haisheng is the same as him.
This time he brought two precious mother Gu from southern Xinjiang, one for him and one for the King of Qi. Each mother Gu could control ten child Gu, all of which had been planted on the old emperor, Chu Feixue, and half of the imperial guards.
Unexpectedly, when the rooster crowed, the generals of the imperial guards who had the poison in their bodies collapsed immediately and were captured by Zhang Huai in one fell swoop.
I wonder who is this expert who could break the Miao area's witchcraft?
Now they were surrounded by the Duke of Zhenguo's men in the Hua'e Tower.
The rebels lost their general and became a group of scattered sand, and were quickly wiped out by the elite troops led by Zhang Huai.
Fortunately, Dao Haisheng went to Fengyi Palace in advance and captured Empress Zhang.
They had Empress Zhang, the Crown Princess, and many other ladies and noble ladies in Hua'e Tower, so they also had bargaining chips.
All they can do now is to use these people as hostages to negotiate with the emperor and escape from the Forbidden Palace as soon as possible.
"I want to see His Majesty!"
Nangong Xihe put the sword on Empress Zhang's neck, while Dao Haisheng held Zhang Wanwan hostage.
"Let the prince come over too!" Nangong Xihe said sternly.
Empress Zhang looked calm and said, "Release the Crown Princess first, and I will escort you out of the palace."
Zhang Wanwan had never seen such an occasion at the border, and couldn't help but burst into tears: "Aunt!"
"Shut up!" Nangong Xihe said viciously.
To the old emperor, no one is more important than himself. Just based on Empress Zhang, Nangong Xihe doesn't believe that the old emperor would be cautious.
Concubine Zhou was so frightened that she was trembling and curled up in the corner. She had no idea what was going on.
Why did Xier hold the Queen and the Crown Princess hostage?
The Princess of Qi who was supporting her was also terrified at this moment. She had no idea that the King of Qi would force the emperor to abdicate today!
If the plan fails, she and the Zheng family will be buried with them!
Jiang Li and Xie Changan hid in a rockery in the imperial garden.
Jiang Li whispered, "Brother Changan, you and I are not afraid of the poison, do you want to rush in?"
Xie Changan helped her wipe the blood off her face and whispered, "There are too many hostages inside. It would be bad if the Empress and the Crown Princess were injured. Let's wait and see what happens."
"Your Majesty has arrived——"
"The prince has arrived——"
The emperor and the crown prince came slowly, sitting on the imperial sedan chair, escorted by the East Factory Guards led by Liao Wuyong.
Following behind him were the Duke of Zhenguo and the three great secretaries of the cabinet.
Shen Muchun and Pei Yuanzheng, who had just been released, followed closely beside the imperial carriage.
The old emperor now looks pale and shaky, and may die at any time.
The Duke of Zhenguo advised His Majesty not to come and to have a good rest.
But the emperor must ask this rebellious son in person. Even if he failed to make him the crown prince as he wished, he still loved him very much. Why was he so heartless and unrighteous? He actually wanted to kill his father and the emperor!
The imperial carriage stopped in the imperial garden, and the emperor signaled Nangong Qinghe to ask questions on his behalf.
"Prince, please take full charge of this matter. Do not let anyone escape. Shoot them on the spot if necessary!"
"Yes, I will obey my father's order!"
Nangong Qinghe walked over slowly and said in a clear voice: "Second brother, my father asked me to ask you, what are heaven, earth, emperor, parents and teachers? What are filial piety, brotherhood, loyalty, propriety, justice, integrity and shame?"
Nangong Xihe sneered: "If heaven does not give me, I will take it myself. This is what you, my father, taught me! What have I done wrong? It's just a matter of success and failure!"
He grabbed Zhang Wanwan and held the sword to her neck.
"Stop talking nonsense, Third Brother, and let us leave the capital! Otherwise, I will kill your Crown Princess!"
"Your Highness, don't worry about me..."
Zhang Wanwan's face turned pale, she suppressed her fear and spoke in a trembling voice.
Nangong Qinghe said: "Okay, if you release the Queen Mother and the Crown Princess, I will let you go."
"I will personally escort you out of the city." He said word by word.
What he meant was to exchange him for Queen Zhang and Zhang Wanwan!
"Your Highness, you must not do this!" Everyone rushed to stop him.
Nangong Xihe seemed to be tempted. He thought about it and sneered, "One for two, how can it be so cheap?"
At this time, a clear voice rang out: "What about exchanging me for the Queen and the Crown Princess?"
