The delicate cannon fodder is stunning, saving the male supporting role but getting teased instead

Chapter 28: Imprisoned Prince and the Male Supporting Role & Cannon Fodder Palace Maid 14

On a moonlit, windy night, the gate of the palace was quietly opened. Teams of people in black walked through the palace and headed straight for the emperor's bedroom.

Wenrou suddenly woke up from a nightmare and had a bad feeling. She got out of bed and wanted to go out to see what was going on, but she found Zhang Ji standing at her door.

"What is Lord Zhang doing?" Wenrou asked curiously.

When Zhang Ji heard Wenrou coming out, he quickly turned around and explained, "Master Wen, things have been unsettled in the palace lately. Something might happen tonight, so the Crown Prince asked me to watch over you."

Wenrou knew that the emperor had been in poor health recently, so she frowned and asked worriedly, "Is the prince in danger?" Although the prince had forced himself on her, he was still a good person at heart. Wenrou didn't want him to get into trouble.

Zhang Ji saw that Wenrou was very worried, hesitated for a moment, and then went into the room and whispered, "It is the Fifth Prince who is planning a rebellion, but Master Wen, don't worry, the Crown Prince has already made plans, there is no danger."

Wenrou didn't know why she was always flustered. She bit her lip and said, "Master Zhang, you don't have to protect me. Go and help the prince. I'm just a palace maid. Who would go out of their way to hurt me?"

In fact, Zhang Ji also wanted to go to the prince, but he had to obey the prince's words and stay by Wen Rou's side. A struggle flashed in his eyes, and finally he said, "Then Master Wen, please lock the door. I will go to the prince's side to help."

Wenrou nodded and watched Zhang Ji walk away. She returned to her room, but she couldn't sleep. Various thoughts kept swirling in her mind. If Yan Heng became emperor, it would be even more impossible for her to escape the palace. But Wenrou really didn't want to be a concubine.

Thinking of this, Wenrou's eyes flashed with determination. If that was the case, why not take advantage of the chaos and escape from the palace? With this thought, Wenrou could no longer sit still. She quickly began to pack her things. Fortunately, she didn't have much stuff, so she finished packing in a short while.

Wenrou hurriedly changed into a simple outfit and rushed to the side gate of the imperial palace. Her prescription had previously resolved the plight of the southwest, and for this, the emperor had specially awarded her a golden medal of immunity from death. Unexpectedly, today, the medal would come in handy.

When Wenrou arrived at the side door, the guards immediately stopped her. She quickly pulled out her gold medal and waved it gently, causing the guards to kneel down and salute. She feigned arrogance and said loudly, "The master of the palace has urgent matters to attend to, so he sent me out of the palace."

The guards didn't dare to stop her any further and obediently made way for Wenrou to leave. Wenrou carefully avoided the guards who were patrolling at night and ran all the way back to where Daddy Wen currently lived.

Meanwhile, Yan Jin, with his private soldiers, had completely surrounded the Emperor's chambers. With his private soldiers outnumbering the Imperial Guard by a factor of two, he was determined to secure victory in today's battle.

Yan Jin kicked the door open and rushed in with his private soldiers.

Yan Yintian was suddenly awakened. He looked at Yan Jin, who came with ill intentions, and said with trembling hands, "You rebellious son, what do you want to do?"

Yan Jin looked at Yan Yintian expressionlessly, as if he were looking at a dead man. "Father, all along, you've only had Yan Heng in your heart. No matter how outstanding I am, you've always turned a blind eye. Until now, everything has been forced upon you."

Yan Yintian looked at him coldly and said, "Since ancient times, there has been an order of seniority. Yan Heng is the Queen's eldest son, so he is naturally the Crown Prince."

Yan Jin sneered and retorted, "Yes, I was born to a palace maid, but my mother didn't want to be your woman at all. You forced her into it after drinking, and you felt no guilt at all, leaving her to fend for herself in this cannibalistic palace." Yan Jin laughed heartily and continued, "But you would never have imagined that my mother was the Holy Maiden of the Dianyun Kingdom. Everything that happened today is the retribution you deserve."

Yan Yintian's eyes were filled with disappointment, but Yan Jin was his child after all, so he finally persuaded him: "If you surrender now, I will pretend that nothing happened."

Yan Jin looked at Yan Yintian coldly without saying anything. Instead, he made a gesture, signaling his men to control Yan Yintian.

At this moment, Yan Heng suddenly walked out from the side and stood in front of Yan Yintian.

"Haha, great, you are here too. It's just right, I will deal with you all together today." Yan Jin did not panic when he saw Yan Heng, but laughed and said.

"Deal with? How are you going to deal with us? How can you deal with us?" Yan Heng said expressionlessly.

Seeing Yan Heng so calm, Yan Jin couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied. He frowned and said viciously, "Humph! What? Haven't you tasted my poison yet? Once you fall into my hands, I will make you into a drug man, making it impossible for you to live or die!"

"Oh? Really?" Yan Heng was not in a hurry, and clapped his hands lightly. Suddenly, the door was thrown open, and countless soldiers in armor rushed in.

"Northwest Army? This... this is impossible!" Yan Jin's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief. He naturally recognized the armor these soldiers wore as standard Northwest Army equipment, but he couldn't understand why the Northwest Army, supposedly stationed on the northwest border, would inexplicably appear in this palace.

"Hahahahaha! Yan Jin, ah Yan Jin, don't you understand even now? All of this is a carefully planned scheme by my father and me!" Yan Heng sneered. In fact, he had long been aware of Yan Jin's ambition, but he had always kept it to himself, secretly planning today's drama.

Upon hearing this, Yan Jin suddenly turned to look at Yan Heng, his expression instantly twisted and ferocious. He gritted his teeth, raised his long sword, and lunged at Yan Heng, intending to kill him in one fell swoop. However, he was still a beat too slow. Yan Heng launched a flying kick, striking Yan Jin squarely in the chest and sending him flying.

As a result, Yan Jin was completely defeated. All those who participated in the rebellion were arrested and thrown into prison.

Shangguan Qingzheng was waiting in Yan Jin's mansion, anxiously awaiting news of the rebellion's victory. But what she waited for was the Northwest Army breaking out of the house.

"Who are you and what are you going to do?" Shangguan Qing shouted in panic. But the Northwest Army ignored her and directly arrested everyone in the mansion, including Shangguan Qing.

After everything settled, Yan Heng breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the East Palace. He couldn't understand why he couldn't wait to see Wen Rou. Without even changing his armor, he strode towards Wen Rou's current residence. It was just dawn, and Yan Heng, not wanting to disturb Wen Rou's sleep, gently opened the door and walked in. But when he reached the bed, he was shocked to find it empty.
