Chapter 197 Little Swallow and Hongli: The Conspiracy Emerges, Dealing with the Crisis
Little Swallow, holding paper and pen, was about to draw the pattern on the jade pendant, muttering to herself, "This jade pendant pattern is really complicated, I have to draw it carefully."
At this moment, Consort Ling walked over, looked at Xiao Yanzi and said, "Xiao Yanzi, you must draw the pattern accurately, it's of great importance."
Little Swallow raised her head, her eyes resolute: "Your Highness, please rest assured! I, Little Swallow, am always serious when I do something."
Consort Ling smiled and nodded: "I hope we can get some useful information from the common people. This mysterious force is really worrying."
As Xiao Yanzi drew, she said, "Yes! They actually wanted to stage a coup, that's terrible. I wonder how Prince Hongzhou is doing now, whether he managed to send the message back successfully."
On the way back to the capital, Hongzhou spurred his horse onward, his heart burning with anxiety.
A trusted aide called out from behind, "Your Highness, slow down! The horse won't be able to handle it!"
Without turning his head, Hongzhou shouted, "This news cannot be delayed for even a moment! If it is too late, the court will be in danger!"
They sped all the way and finally arrived in the capital.
Hongzhou rushed straight to the palace, but was stopped by guards at the palace gate.
Hongzhou roared, "I have urgent military information to report to the Emperor! Get out of the way!"
The guard said with difficulty, "Your Highness, without the Emperor's decree, I dare not let them pass."
Hongzhou was extremely anxious and was about to force his way in when Su Peisheng came over and called out, "Let Prince He in. The Emperor is waiting for him in the Imperial Study."
Hongzhou didn't even have time to thank him before rushing to the Imperial Study.
Upon entering the imperial study, Hongzhou, panting, exclaimed, "Your Majesty, something terrible has happened!"
Hongli stood up from behind his desk, looking nervous: "Hongzhou, tell me quickly, have you discovered any important clues about that mysterious force?"
Hongzhou handed the document to Hongli and said urgently, "Brother, look at this! They're plotting a coup! I found this in a cave in the valley."
Hongli took the document, his face growing increasingly grim. He roared, "These treacherous officials and villains dare to be so audacious!"
Little Swallow entered the imperial study at that moment and, upon hearing this, exclaimed in alarm, "Ah! A coup? What are we going to do?"
Hongzhou looked at Xiaoyanzi and said, "We have to find a way to stop them. I've also discovered that this force is colluding with several sects in the martial arts world."
Little Swallow frowned and said, "Should we join forces with righteous people in the martial arts world to fight against them?"
Hongli nodded: "That's a good idea. However, before that, we need to clean up the court and see who their spies are."
At the Prime Minister's residence, Lin Yuxuan said to Lin Yuhang, "Brother, given the current situation of the imperial court, should we go to the palace to help?"
Lin Yuhang pondered for a moment and said, "Let's wait and see. The Emperor and Xiao Yanzi are definitely already figuring out how to deal with this. If they need us, they will send someone to inform us."
Lin Yuxuan was a little anxious: "But I still feel uneasy. That force will definitely not let our Prime Minister's residence go easily."
Lin Yuhang comforted him, "Little brother, don't worry too much. We'll strengthen the guards in the manor so we can deal with any situation that may arise."
In the Cold Palace, Niohuru Zhixi and Rong Momo were discussing a new plan.
Zhixi frowned and said, "Granny, Lord Lin hasn't found anything. What should we do next?"
Rong Momo said with a sinister smile, "Your Majesty, this old servant thinks we can start with Little Swallow. She is currently very favored in the palace. If something happens to her, Little Swallow and the Emperor will definitely be distracted."
Zhixi's eyes lit up: "Granny, that's a great idea. But how can we do it so that no one knows?"
Rong Momo leaned closer to Zhixi and whispered, "Your Highness, we can have someone tamper with her food to make her sick, so that it won't arouse too much suspicion."
Zhixi hesitated for a moment: "Won't we be discovered? If the Emperor finds out, we're finished."
Rong Momo patted her chest and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured, this old servant will arrange everything properly."
Xiao Yanzi and Hongli were discussing how to deal with the coup crisis in the Imperial Study.
Little Swallow said, "Your Majesty, we need to find those in the court who are colluding with mysterious forces, but how do we do that?"
Hongli paced back and forth, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "I will have Su Peisheng secretly observe the ministers' every move, and report any suspicious situations immediately. In addition, I will also consult with General Zhaohui on military defenses."
Little Swallow then asked, "What about the martial arts world? How do we contact the righteous people associated with those sects that Prince Hongzhou discovered?"
Hongzhou said from the side, "I still have some friends in the martial arts world. I can contact them and ask them to help me gather information and recruit manpower."
Little Swallow nodded: "Your Highness, then I'll leave it to you. I hope we can stop this coup as soon as possible."
Hongzhou clasped his hands in a salute: "Little Swallow, you and your brother should be careful in the capital. I'll set off now to contact my friends in the martial arts world."
After Hongzhou left, Xiaoyanzi said to Hongli, "Your Majesty, I'm still worried about Xiaoyanzi's safety. That force might try to harm her."
Hongli held Xiaoyanzi's hand and comforted her, "I have already increased the number of people protecting her. Don't worry too much. Now we need to focus on dealing with the coup."
Little Swallow bit her lip and said, "I hope everything goes smoothly."
In the martial arts world, Hongzhou searched everywhere for his friends.
He arrived at a security escort agency and called out to the gate, "Is Chief Escort Zhao here? This is Hongzhou!"
When Zhao, the head镖师 (bodyguard/escort), came out and saw Hongzhou, he said in surprise, "Your Highness, what brings you here? Please come in."
Upon entering the escort agency, Hongzhou sat down and said directly, "Chief Escort Zhao, I have come here with an important request. There is a force in the martial arts world plotting a coup against the imperial court, and they are colluding with some sects. I hope you can help me gather righteous people to fight against them."
Chief镖师 Zhao's expression was solemn: "Your Highness, this is a very important matter. However, rest assured, our镖局 (escort agency) prioritizes loyalty and will definitely give you our full support."
Hongzhou said gratefully, "Chief镖Zhao, I feel much more at ease with your words. Time is of the essence, we must act as soon as possible."
Both the imperial court and the martial arts world are busy preparing for the impending crisis, while the conspiracy of that mysterious force is gradually becoming apparent. Will they be able to successfully prevent the coup? Will Zhixi and Rong Momo's plot succeed? End of this chapter. Stay tuned for the next chapter.
