Traveling through the emperor, overthrowing the empress dowager at the beginning

After Ye Chen rushed into the palace, he went straight to the death cell.

As soon as he entered the death row, he immediately called Ouyang Tai out.

After all, Ouyang Tai was an official appointed by the imperial court and had not been convicted. In this death row, he was still wearing official uniform and no shackles.

As soon as Ouyang Tai saw Ye Kuan, he stood up straight, bowed, and said, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. Long live your Majesty."

"Be flat."

Ye Chen sat upright in the interrogation seat and said to Ouyang Tai, "Ouyang Tai, do you have anything to say to me?"

Hearing this, Ouyang Tai said expressionlessly, "I beg Your Majesty to spare my son Ouyang Yu's life!"

After Ouyang Tai finished speaking, he knelt down with a plop and kowtowed to Ye Chen.

"Ok?"

Ye Chen frowned slightly, already feeling that something was wrong.

"Ouyang Tai, don't you want to explain something?"

Ye Chen asked again.

"I just want to ask Your Majesty to let my son go! My son was just confused for a moment. I beg Your Majesty to show some mercy!"

Ouyang Tai kowtowed as he spoke.

After hearing Ouyang Tai's words, Ye Chen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and his face immediately darkened.

"Ouyang Tai, are you kidding me?"

Ye Chen stood up immediately, his eyes becoming fierce.

"I dare not. My son is not even twenty years old yet. I only have this one son. Please have mercy on me, Your Majesty!"

Ouyang Tai kowtowed repeatedly.

Seeing this guy using the same trick again, Ye Chen clenched his fists in anger.

"Come here, take Ouyang Tai away!"

Ye Chen waved his hand, too lazy to listen to Ouyang Tai's nonsense.

"Your Majesty, please have mercy on me, Your Majesty, please have mercy on me!~~"

As Ouyang Tai was being dragged away, he continued to beg for mercy.

Ye Chen watched Ouyang Tai being dragged away. He snorted coldly and turned to Shen Qiu and said, "Qiu'er, next time this old man wants to confess, ask him clearly what he wants to confess. If he refuses to say it, don't waste my time!"

"Yes."

Shen Qiu nodded.

Her face looked a little ugly. She didn't expect that Ouyang Tai would do this.

In the court, this guy had already begged for mercy, but Ye Chen did not agree at that time.

In the court, this guy actually came to beg for mercy again, and Ye Chen naturally could not agree.

Ouyang Tai wanted to save his son without paying any price. In Shen Qiu's opinion, this was like eating for free, which was simply too abominable.

Ye Chen stood up and was about to leave the death row.

But at this moment, Ye Chen's face suddenly became serious and his brows were immediately furrowed.

"That's not right. Ouyang Tai is not a fool. How could he not know that if he doesn't provide any confession, I will never let his son go?"

"Am I usually so easy to talk to?"

A word suddenly popped up in Ye Chen's mind.

Tune the tiger away from the mountain!

"No! I fell into a trap!"

Ye Chen reacted immediately and rushed out of the death cell.

Shen Qiu was slightly stunned when he saw this, and quickly followed.

"Qiu'er, pass the order down and immediately dispatch 300 imperial guards to the lakeside cottage. Notify the Marquis of Jing'an's residence and have them dispatch 500 men as well!"

Ye Chen quickly got on the carriage.

"Hurry up, let's go to the lakeside cottage!"

Ye Chen urged loudly.

The carriage moved quickly towards the palace gate.

Shen Qiu quickly got on the carriage.

She looked at Ye Chen's anxious look, her face solemn, but also a little confused, and said: "Your Majesty, what happened?"

"These powerful officials are going to take action against the lakeside cottage!"

Ye Chen gritted his teeth and said in a gloomy tone.

Hearing this, Shen Qiu was slightly stunned, and then he reacted.

"Your Majesty, could it be that Ouyang Tai deliberately said he had something to confess in order to lure you away?"

Shen Qiu asked immediately.

"It must be so!"

Ye Chen gritted his teeth, he was extremely angry at this moment, it was not difficult for him to guess that those powerful officials were going to use the people from the city defense army to attack the small building by the lake.

Moreover, this method was extremely clever. He took advantage of the fact that he had just left the lakeside cottage and sent him away through Ouyang Tai. Not only did he let his guard down, but those guarding the lakeside cottage probably wouldn't believe that someone would attack the lakeside cottage right after he left.

Then use Ouyang Tai to hold him back.

It's just a time difference.

I was careless.

Ye Chen clenched his fists tightly.

"Damn Yang Dechang, if Yu Niang dies, I will make sure you die a miserable death!"

Ye Chen was very angry.

The carriage had just rushed out of the palace gate.

A guard of the imperial guards rode his horse quickly to the side of the carriage.

"Your Majesty, someone has sent a signal inside the city!"

"It's in the direction of the lakeside cottage!"

Hearing this, on the carriage.

Ye Chen became even more anxious.

"Hurry up, hurry up!"

Ye Chen urged.

But at this moment.

Another imperial guard arrived and said, "Your Majesty, our men discovered that some of the assassins who attacked the lakeside cottage have split off and are heading towards the artificial lake inside the city!"

"What did you say?"

Ye Chen was slightly stunned and his eyes narrowed immediately.

The powerful official arranged so many assassins to attack the lakeside cottage, definitely wanting to complete the attack before he could react.

How could they suddenly split up their forces?

unless.

Ye Chen thought that it was impossible for someone like Boss Murong not to leave a backup plan for himself.

"Qiu'er, take your men to the lakeside cottage first. I will then take two hundred imperial guards and head to the inner lake!"

Ye Chen made a prompt decision and divided his troops into two groups.

"Your Majesty, will you be in danger if you are alone?"

Shen Qiu was a little worried.

"Qiu'er, this is an order!"

Ye Chen paused, then continued, "When dealing with the assassins in the lakeside cottage, if you don't see Boss Murong, leave some of the imperial guards behind and quickly support me!"

"promise!"

Shen Qiu finally rushed out of the carriage, changed to a horse, and headed towards the small building by the lake. The whole carriage then turned and rushed towards the largest inner lake in the capital.

When Ye Chen arrived at the lake, he quickly found the Lanmei pleasure boat on the lakeside, and on the deck of the boat, he saw a familiar figure.

The figure exudes a mature and charming temperament.

And next to that figure, there stood the thrush.

Behind the two women, there was another woman in purple, wearing an iron mask on her face.

But inside the pleasure boat, there were constant shouts and cries of killing.

It was obvious that someone was fighting.

There were several small boats parked around the pleasure boat, which had trapped it.

It seems that the killers are so numerous that they have occupied the bottom floor of Lan Meifang, and the situation is precarious.

"Someone, come here! Come to me!"

"These killers must all be killed without mercy!"

Ye Chen's eyes turned red, he jumped off the carriage, then waved his hand and roared domineeringly.

His voice was like rolling thunder, filled with full anger.
