Ever since the emperor heard the voice of his trusted eunuch, he felt that every second was a year. What went wrong? What would be the result?

He was afraid that he would bring some worse news or disturb the person in front of him, but he also hoped that he would realize that something was wrong and send someone to rescue him.

During the difficult wait, he heard a sound coming from outside the door.

It must be him. The emperor waited for the eunuch's news with anticipation. He even ignored the knife against his neck and the man holding the knife.

However, he was disappointed.

Soon, he heard the eunuch's panting sound.

"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened. Assassins have broken into the palace, and the Imperial Guards are about to be overwhelmed."

The eunuch waited for a while and found that no sound came from the house.

What’s going on? Is His Majesty still not awake?

Thinking of this, he banged on the door and shouted again.

"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened. Assassins have broken into the palace, and the Royal Guards are almost overwhelmed. Your Majesty, Your Majesty?"

The eunuch realized something was wrong when he saw that there was no sound coming from the room. He wondered if the assassin had already entered the emperor's room.

He thought about this and felt extremely anxious, but he didn't show anything.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty. Why hasn't Your Majesty woken up yet? No, I have to find someone who can take charge of the situation first."

He deliberately raised his voice when he said this, and then left quickly.

After hearing the voice of his eunuch, the emperor in the room carefully looked at the man in black in front of him and found that he did not react at all, and he was delighted.

As expected of his trusted eunuch, he must have noticed something was wrong and went to ask for help. It seems that he will be rescued soon.

On the other hand, after leaving the emperor's bedroom, the eunuch did not go to seek help as the emperor wished, but instead walked all the way to a long-abandoned corner.

After he walked a few steps inside, he saw a person standing in the dark. He walked towards the person without hesitation.

"Sir, our people should have succeeded in getting the Emperor's help. Soon the entire palace will be under your control."

"Well, we can proceed to the next step."

"Yes, my lord."

After the eunuch left, the person in the dark came out. It was Li Xiangxian.

Li Xiangxian had already placed his own people in the palace. He originally just wanted to get some information about the palace and never thought that he could climb to this position.

The people of the Di family were still very powerful. It didn't take long before they almost controlled the entire palace and forced all the concubines, princes, princesses, etc. in the harem to move to the Jinluan Palace.

These royal relatives and nobles who usually act so arrogant are now hugging each other in groups of three or four, looking at the murderous men in black around them with horror.

Not long after they arrived here, they saw a man in black escorting the emperor in.

Suddenly, they all felt as if the sky was falling. Could it be that rebels had broken into the palace?

Just when the hall was in panic, Li Xiangxian walked in from outside the hall surrounded by a crowd of people.

This time Li Xiangxian was not wearing a mask, so the emperor saw his face at a glance.

"It's you……"

"What? Your Majesty, do you know me? Why don't I remember meeting Your Majesty before?"

"How dare you! Are you planning to usurp the throne?"

The emperor did not answer Li Xiangxian's question, but stiffly changed the subject.

"What are you talking about, Your Majesty? Are you plotting to usurp the throne? No, don't you know what I'm going to do?"

"you……"

"Your Majesty should have thought this would happen when he did that."

"Don't be too happy too soon. How can these people of yours resist my army..."

The emperor's words stopped when he saw Shan Gudao being brought to the hall by one of them.

"You are in the same group! I trust you so much."

Shan Gudao was not in the mood to care what the emperor thought at the moment. He was just trying to figure out how to get himself out of this matter.

"Even if you trick me into sending out the army, the imperial city's yamen runners and the guards in the officials' mansions are not something you can resist."

After the emperor finished speaking, he looked at the men in black around Li Xiangxian, paying special attention to the person behind him.

"My dear men, he is just a remnant of the previous dynasty. What future do you have following him? Otherwise, turn to my side. With your skills, I will definitely promote you to higher positions!"

The emperor thought that after he said these words passionately, even if no one would turn to the light, it would at least make some of them uneasy and buy him some time.

But what he didn't expect was that those people didn't react at all, not to mention that some of them had unstable thoughts and caused any trouble to Li Xiangxian.

Now, he had given up and put all his attention on Li Xiangxian.

"Li... Young Master Li, just tell me what you want. I can satisfy you with anything I want. I was wrong about what happened back then. I can satisfy you with any compensation you want!"

"Compensation? What compensation do you want? You almost slaughtered the entire Li family. If you want compensation, then use your entire family to pay."

"Do it."

At Li Xiangxian's command, the assassins of the Di family began to attack the concubines and princes and princesses who had children.

In an instant, the entire Golden Luan Palace was flooded with blood.

Although the emperor felt distressed, he said nothing and just closed his eyes.

As long as the children and women escape this disaster, there will still be life. The most important thing now is to save your own life and wait for rescue.

Li Xiangxian looked at the scene in front of him and it was as if he was back to the time when the Li family was wiped out. He watched those children die one by one under the knife of the assassins, and actually felt a moment of pity.

However, he must wipe out the roots and watch all these people die with his own eyes. He cannot let the tiger go back to the mountain!

Soon, the assassins stopped, and now the only ones left standing were the concubines without children.

At this moment, another person walked in from outside and said something in Li Xiangxian's ear.

"Bring it in."

Afterwards, almost all the officials in the imperial city were brought in.

As soon as the officials came in, they saw the emperor being held hostage, the princes and princesses lying on the ground, and Li Xiangxian standing in the middle.

"You traitor, you shall not die a good death!"

"How dare you treat me like this!"

……

These curses were not common, and most people were still very quiet. After all, people without brains were rare, and these people were probably royal relatives.
