Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 1141

Concubine Jing forced herself to remain calm and stood in front of her daughter. "Every word Princess Haiyan said is speculation and cannot be trusted at all."

In fact, everyone present understood that it didn’t matter who poisoned Emperor Mingde.

What matters is which side is at a disadvantage.

This night was destined to be a sleepless night, as a confrontation once again broke out in Chaoyang Palace.

At this moment, the Royal Guards surrounded the Chaoyang Palace. The heavy footsteps and the friction of armor seemed particularly harsh in the silent night.

The moonlight filtered through the clouds, sprinkling mottled light on the bluestone slabs in front of the temple, adding a touch of cold silver to the tense atmosphere.

Inside the hall, the flickering candlelight illuminated the tense faces of the two groups of people.

On one side, the Empress Dowager was at the head, and the Dongyu Guards led by Lou Yuxiao were holding weapons, with solemn expressions, ready to capture Princess Haiyan and her husband at any time together with the Imperial Guards outside the palace.

The other side was led by Cen Yuan and Shi Anxia, ​​and the Dongyu Guard led by Ma Chuyi. Each of them had a tall and straight figure and guarded one side with a fierce momentum.

Judging from the number of people on both sides, the Queen Mother's side naturally won.

Rong Fei couldn't stand it any longer and was secretly anxious, "What are you afraid of with so many people? Go ahead!"

The concubines next to her couldn't help but roll their eyes.

Were you blind just now? Lou Yuxiao was almost killed by Ma Chuyi! Who dares to rush forward and die?

Princess Lin clasped her hands together and silently prayed not to fight. Her ninth prince was still in the hands of the prince consort!

Is this naughty kid going to run over there and get killed now?

Although the Ninth Prince was not her biological son, she had raised him from childhood and had a deep affection for him.

Concubine Lin ran over in small steps, trying to drag the Ninth Prince away.

Unexpectedly, the Ninth Prince turned around and advised her seriously, "Mother, don't go over there, just stay here. Princess Yunlan poisoned father, don't stand over there!"

Princess Yunlan was so angry that her face turned blue, "Xiaojiu, you just listened to a stranger's nonsense!"

The Ninth Prince's tender voice revealed the mischievousness that only a man of his age could have. "Princess Haiyan is a princess appointed by our father. She has the same status as you. She is not an outsider! You poisoned her, so you are an outsider! Lulululu!"

At this time, the imperial guards outside the palace announced loudly: "According to the Queen Mother's order, arrest Princess Haiyan and her husband! Everyone, put down your weapons and surrender!"

Ma Chuyi's heart trembled and he subconsciously looked towards Cen Yuan.

But the other party was calm and composed, still holding Shi Anxia's hand, and his expression did not change at all.

Just by looking back, Ma Chuyi's heart was at peace.

He raised his spear, ready to fight.

The Queen Mother was about to explode with anger, but she calmed down instead, "Xiao Jiu, are you really going to insist on standing on that side?"

On the surface, she was asking about the Ninth Prince, but in reality, she was asking about Concubine Lin.

She was forcing Concubine Lin to express her opinion.

Lin Fei's heart trembled, knowing full well what this step would mean.

The imperial guards outside have rushed into the palace.

Concubine Lin hurriedly held the Ninth Prince's hand and was about to speak. But the Ninth Prince spoke first, "Grandmother, do you smell a stench? The whole hall is filled with a stench. I just sniffed carefully and I think the stench is coming from you."

When Concubine Lin heard this, her face turned pale and her eyes were full of panic.
