Chapter 303: Imperial Guards Rescue the Emperor
"Su Yinyue, shut up!" Concubine Shu scolded, "The Emperor is the ruler of a country, he should act uprightly, how could he pretend to faint to deceive others?"
"If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will tear your mouth apart!"
Jiang Zai Yu did not miss Su Yinyue's action of taking his pulse. He knew that what the princess said was true, and his expression darkened for a moment.
He quickly adjusted himself and said, "My father was poisoned and seriously injured. It is normal for him to be emotionally unstable and unconscious. Princess, you are mistaken."
With his explanation, the matter was over.
The fact that Emperor Mingde brought it up after he woke up confirmed that he was pretending to be unconscious, otherwise he would not have heard what Su Yinyue said.
Of course, he could also ask Huai En, "Did anyone say anything after I fainted?" But Jiang Zai Yu had already explained that Su Yin Yue had seen it wrong. If he continued to use this as an excuse, his image as the doting Prince Yu would be ruined.
Maybe there are people who secretly tell the king of a country that he says one thing to your face and another behind your back.
The safest way is to pretend that it never happened.
"Zhang Wei, go see your father."
Dean Zhang was carrying a medicine box, half-crouching beside Emperor Mingde with his head shrunk.
"It's getting dark." Sun Jun issued an ultimatum, "Prince Yu, I'll give you two quarters of an hour. If you don't get the imperial edict, I'll kill the imperial concubine."
The sky was getting darker and darker, and the entire Huijing Hall seemed to be weighed down by the dark sky; it was eerily quiet.
Everyone's faces became dim due to insufficient light.
"kill!"
"Take down the rebels!"
The shouting and screaming coming from outside the door broke the quiet atmosphere.
"what sound?"
Everyone in the hall looked around, but all they saw were tables, chairs, and beams standing quietly in the darkness.
Sun Jun was confused and pointed at a soldier from the Imperial City at random, "Go out and take a look."
Faintly, the deep voice of Emperor Mingde sounded, "Sun Jun, you joined forces with Mao Baichuan to rebel. Do you really think I didn't notice it?"
Sun Jun was confused. "What do you mean?"
The ominous feeling reached its peak.
The shouts and cries outside turned into a huge net that entangled him tightly, making it so tight that he couldn't breathe.
"what!"
The imperial army, which was originally crowded at the door, suddenly changed direction and fought with the enemies rushing up from behind.
As the imperial soldiers fell one by one, Sun Jun became increasingly uneasy.
It was not until the two teams of imperial guards removed the corpses blocking the door and Wan Chen and Zhong Xi strode into the hall that he realized the situation was out of control.
His face was twisted in fear, and he kept shaking his head as if in a nightmare, "Why are you here..."
"The 25,000 troops of the Imperial City Division have been wiped out," Wan Chen and Zhong Xi knelt on one knee in front of Emperor Mingde, "I am late in coming to your rescue, Your Majesty, please punish me."
When he saw the two people, a hint of surprise flashed in Emperor Mingde's eyes. He had arranged the troops of the Seven Stars Mansion, not them!
The person is right in front of him, he can't remain indifferent.
So, Emperor Mingde took Huai En's hand and walked out of the guards' protection circle, reluctantly bent down and helped the two of them up personally, "You came at the right time, I am very relieved."
Jiang Zaiyu was relieved when he saw Zhong Xi, and immediately wanted to take advantage of Mao Baichuan's distraction to rescue Concubine Zhao by surprise.
As soon as he moved, he was discovered by the vigilant Mao Baichuan.
"do not move!"
In order to intimidate him, Concubine Zhao added a second cut on her neck.
At this moment, Mao Baichuan began to realize that the situation was heading in the worst direction, and he kicked the stunned Sun Jun hard, "Stop being in a daze, think of a solution!"
Sun Jun was awakened and hurried to Mao Baichuan, saying quickly: "A Shou and Yang Song are leading 300,000 refugees outside the palace. The imperial guards have only gained the upper hand temporarily, but they can't cause any big trouble!"
"Besides, the Imperial Concubine is still in our hands. Prince Yu will not watch her die. We still have hope!"
After listening to his calculation of the advantages, Mao Baichuan felt relieved and immediately gathered the surviving imperial soldiers.
Emperor Mingde heard what they were saying but didn't want to pay any attention to it. He was eager to know how Wan Chen and Zhong Xi got together.
"Wan Qing is the commander of the imperial guards. The people in the capital are in chaos, so he should be in charge. Zhong Qing, why are you here with Wan Qing?"
From the moment he saw Emperor Mingde, Wan Chen, knowing that he had done a great job in saving the emperor, kept smiling. "Your Majesty, I was able to save the emperor in time thanks to Lord Zhong's resourcefulness."
Zhong Xi began to brag with him, "If it weren't for Commander Wan's bravery and skill in battle, even if I, a mere scholar, guessed that the emperor was in danger, I would be helpless in the face of 25,000 imperial soldiers."
Emperor Mingde had excellent reading comprehension. "Guess? Zhong Qing, how did you guess that Sun Jun would coup today?"
"Your Majesty, I did not know that the coup was initiated by Lord Sun."
Zhong Xi confessed honestly, "The emperor ordered me to investigate the deaths of the three people in Guan Fengsi. The queen was deeply involved in this matter."
"I think the murderer has gone to great lengths to arrange these three shocking crimes, and his intentions are very big. The emperor's banquet for the third-rank officials is a good opportunity for him to take action."
Everyone and Emperor Mingde listened attentively, with a look of realization flashing across their faces from time to time.
The situation was taken over by the imperial guards. Huai En was busy supporting Emperor Mingde and was unable to get away, so he called a palace servant and asked him to light the candles.
"So, you said that Wan Qing was mobilized?" Emperor Mingde's eyes were dark and unclear. He would not allow the civil and military officials to unite together even if it was to save him.
Zhong Xi knelt down again and pleaded guilty. "This matter involves others and offends the Queen. Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I dare to speak up."
The Duke of Fuguo angrily shouted, "How dare you, Zhong Xi, negotiate with the Emperor?"
"Nothing." Emperor Mingde smiled generously, "I forgive you, Zhong Qing, please tell me quickly."
It’s not a big deal. If Jong-sik really touched his bottom line, he could just find an excuse to deal with it in a few months.
Zhong Xi confessed everything, "The three Guan Fengsi officials held low positions, and their death would not affect anything. In order to paralyze the murderer, I persuaded His Royal Highness the Prince to pretend to be seriously ill and stir up rumors again."
When the rumors were at their most rampant, Prince Xiang even brought his clan members into the palace to request the dethronement of the queen, shocking the court and the public.
"I was able to persuade Commander Wan to come into the city to rescue you because I borrowed the gold medal from His Majesty the King."
At this point, Zhong Xi and Wan Chen knelt down at the same time, "Your Majesty, it was my humble servant who instigated the Prince to mobilize troops privately. If there is any guilt, I am willing to bear it all."
The candlelight lit up silently.
The light dispelled the gloom on Emperor Mingde's face, and he laughed loudly, "Yu'er, you, Wan Qing, you all have made contributions in saving me. Not only will I not blame you, I will also greatly reward you!"
Jiang Zai Ling on the side glared at Zhong Xi darkly, feeling jealous and angry.
Zhong Xi asked Lao Wu for help instead of himself.
Okay, okay, if you dare to look down on me, I will make you regret it sooner or later!
"who?"
The imperial guards guarding the door let out a loud shout and crossed their spears to keep the intruders out.
The man held up something and said, "I am here to pay my respects to the emperor with the head of the rebel Kong Yangsong."
"Let him in."
When the newcomer walked into the candlelight range, Sun Jun was so shocked that his voice was distorted, "Sun Shou, why is it you?"
His own brother came to visit Jiang Pu?
