Quick Transmigration: Survive to the End

The emperor's words stung the left prime minister, but he did not act impulsively. Instead, he waited until the sounds of fighting in the distance ceased and the figures of the rebels appeared outside the palace before he smiled triumphantly.

"Why can't we have it?"

The emperor looked out of the palace and met the gaze of a soldier in armor. He was no longer in a hurry.

No matter how eloquently the Left Prime Minister spoke, the Emperor remained unmoved, even having the mood to ask Yin Yin why he hadn't finished.

Yin Yin felt that if she laughed out loud during such a tense moment, the emperor would definitely bear 80% of the responsibility.

After the Left Chancellor stopped speaking, the Emperor slowly asked, "Are you finished?"

Yinyin raised the fan in her hand, directly covering the lower half of her face.

She covered the lower half of her face, but she couldn't hide her expressive eyes.

The Left Prime Minister suddenly became even angrier.

However, this time, Yu Shuming spoke up: "Now that the Left Prime Minister has finished speaking, shouldn't it be our turn?"

Before the Left Prime Minister could answer, Yu Shuming gestured slightly to You Qizheng, who then took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and began to read it from top to bottom.

The paper recorded the whereabouts of all the younger generation sent away by the Left Prime Minister. Except for Zhou Yun, who went to sea and was difficult to track, everyone had a place to go.

As You Qizheng spoke, no matter how calm the Left Prime Minister appeared, to onlookers he seemed to be putting on a brave face.

Those who had stood up and rebelled with the Left Chancellor now felt remorse.

If the Left Prime Minister was truly confident, why would he send away his younger relatives one by one, especially Zhou Yun, the eldest grandson, who was even sent directly to sea?

Yu Shuming seemed to understand their thoughts and said with a hint of praise, "The Left Prime Minister is truly a master strategist."

"I almost thought that the Left Prime Minister was using a different method, using himself as bait to gather all his cronies so that the court could wipe them out in one fell swoop, thus showing his loyalty to the court."

Yu Shuming deliberately lingered on the faces of the Left Chancellor's cronies for a moment, then sighed and shook his head.

“Your Highness, there’s no need to sow discord and delay,” someone stepped forward and shouted. “The prince’s men are already outside the palace. Your Majesty should hurry up and write the abdication edict.”

The emperor and Yu Shuming both smiled without saying a word.

Yin Yin had already seen through the trick, and with the emperor's signal, she spoke up: "Since all your people are outside the palace, why haven't the princes you have high hopes for arrived yet?"

"Don't you dare?"

Once Yin Yin pointed this out, not only the Left Prime Minister's cronies, but also the officials and their families who were frightened by the coup or kept in a corner, all quietly looked towards the door.

"It's just that something has held us back," Prince Jing said, looking at the Left Prime Minister and the others. "What are you all still talking about? We have the numbers, so let's just take it down directly."

As soon as he said that, some people actually started to take action.

A military officer, who was already quite close, suddenly attacked. Before the chief eunuch could even react, Yin Yin, who was closer to the emperor, kicked him away.

Seeing the burly man, over eight feet tall, fly directly onto Prince Jing's heir, knocking him down as they both lay on the ground groaning in pain, everyone couldn't help but turn to look at Yin Yin.

Situ Yousun pulled Right Chancellor Changsun, who was right next to him, and was extremely excited.

The Right Chancellor Changsun tugged for a long time but couldn't get his sleeve out, so he wisely gave up. But when he looked at Yinyin, his eyes were also sparkling.

A lady whispered, "Hasn't the princess turned ten yet?"

With such thin arms and legs, how could he have such great strength?

Even the Emperor and Empress looked at Yin Yin with surprise. They pulled Yin Yin, who had regained her dignified appearance, closer to them and examined her carefully.

"Yinyin, you said you'd protect us, so you weren't joking after all."

Yinyin tilted her head: "Do I look like I'm joking?"

“It doesn’t seem like it!” The Emperor and Empress exchanged a glance, their postures becoming even more relaxed. To the Left Prime Minister and others, this was nothing short of a provocation.

At this point, the Left Chancellor finally ordered the soldiers outside the palace to come in and arrest the man.

"I refuse to believe that the princess alone can defeat an army of thousands."

"It's not really possible now," Yin Yin thought to herself, "but it might not be in the future."

The soldiers outside the gate quickly moved and entered the hall.

The atmosphere inside the palace, which was not dominated by the Left Chancellor's faction, became tense once again.

Amid the smugness of the Left Chancellor's cronies and several crown princes, they were arrested on the spot.

The officials in the hall were stunned, and Prince Yi even cursed out loud.

"Open your dog eyes and look carefully, the person you're looking for is over there!"

The scene was chaotic, but it subsided quickly. Those who had been swaggering earlier were now prisoners, and even the Left Prime Minister was forced to kneel down.

Amidst disbelief, the emperor excitedly stood up: "Brother, you're back!"

Imperial brother? Imperial brother what? What imperial brother?

Amidst a sea of ​​surprised and uncertain gazes, Yu's father removed his helmet, revealing his true face that had been concealed: "Your Majesty."

Before he could even kneel, the emperor rushed from his throne to his side and helped him up, tears welling in his eyes: "Brother, you've finally come home!"

“Your Majesty,” Yu Fu glanced at the scene in the hall, “there are still important matters to be dealt with.”

"It's alright, it's alright," the emperor waved his hand casually. "With Shuming here, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Let's have a good chat, brothers."

After saying this, the emperor planned to take Yu's father back to the Zichen Palace.

Upon seeing this, Yu Shuming quickly ordered a team of people to protect the Empress, and also instructed Yin Yin to escort her back to Fengyi Palace from behind Zichen Palace.

The concubines quickly led their entourage behind them, no longer daring to remain in the palace.

Consort Zhou originally wanted to follow, but was stopped by someone.

Consort Zhou quickly called out, "Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

The emperor glanced at her sideways, then said to Yu Shuming, "Consort Zhou is in the inner palace, but she has many connections with those outside the palace. She has repeatedly leaked internal affairs to the Left Prime Minister, making it much easier for the Zhou family to act. Now she is deposed and reduced to a commoner, and imprisoned in the Cold Palace."

"Your Majesty!" Upon hearing this, Consort Zhou was struck dumb as if by lightning and collapsed to the ground.

After walking a short distance, Yin Yin heard the Empress say softly, "His Majesty still has feelings for Consort Zhou after all."

Yin Yin looked ahead, pretending not to hear, even though she knew why the Empress would say such a thing.

Given the grave crimes committed by the Zhou family, their property should be confiscated, their clan exterminated, and even their entire family wiped out.

In the past, relying on the power of the Zhou family, Consort Zhou often tried to coerce the emperor into submission, and even allowed those around her to report the emperor's situation in the palace to the Left Chancellor.

If it were any other emperor, Consort Zhou would have been executed long ago. Although the emperor demoted Consort Zhou to a commoner, he also severed her ties with the Zhou family, thus saving her life.

The Empress had suffered a lot of disregard and disrespect from Consort Zhou in the past, and now she had to watch the Emperor soften his heart towards Consort Zhou, so naturally she couldn't be happy.

Fortunately, the Empress only said that one sentence and didn't mention it again.

Yinyin secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Upon returning to Fengyi Palace, the Empress told Yinyin to go back and rest first.

"This year is unlikely to be peaceful."
