Chapter 328: Palace Chaos

Chapter 328 Palace Chaos

In his previous life, Lin Hao returned to the capital in the next year. At that time, Emperor Tai’an was ill and the prince was in charge of the country.

Qi Shuo, who has been in the capital, is more aware of these matters than Lin Hao: “The time is not right. The previous emperor became ill in the spring of next year, and then the crown prince will supervise the country.”

It was just like this that Prince Jing’s mansion was tragically destroyed under the prince’s plan.

“The prince in the previous life was not abolished, King Wei did not die, and the three-way war did not happen. In this life, the emperor has experienced all these bad things before he fell ill.” Lin Hao said with a wry smile, “Ashuo, why do I feel that it is because of our There are many bad things to change.”

That’s all, the death of King Wei and the uprising of the three parties did not exist in previous lives.

Qi Shuo reached out and rubbed Lin Hao’s head: “Don’t add psychological burden to yourself. Do you think these things really won’t happen in previous lives?”

Lin Hao patted away the hand that messed up the bun: “My hair is all messed up.”

Discuss business, what to do.

Qi Shuo smiled: “Anyway, it’s time to rest.”

Lin Hao simply pulled off the hairpin that fastened the bun, let the long hair fall apart, and fixedly looked at the man with a smile on his lips: “You said that these bad things can also happen in previous lives?”

Qi Shuo didn’t answer directly, but asked a question: “How is the prince better than today?”

Lin Hao looked disgusted: “To say that the prince is a piece of mud is an insult to the mud.”

“If someone like the Prince succeeded in the previous life, Emperor Shan Pingle would be enough to swallow him alive. We can imagine what the future of Da Zhou will be. Although we haven’t seen it, it is an inevitable trend. Although these things happened in this life ahead of schedule. Now, at least the result is not too bad, the outside is stable in a short time.”

“Ashuo, you’re right, I’m the one who got into the horns.” Lin Hao nodded in agreement, and suddenly remembered, “But wasn’t the prince killed by you?”

Qi Shuo: “…”

Lin Hao’s expression changed: “In that case, wouldn’t King Wei be in power—”

“King Wei died in the hands of Qi Ming in this life, then Emperor Pingle in the previous life would have more time and better preparations, and the damage would only be greater.” Qi Shuo stretched his arms around her waist and looked out the window, “There is no need to. Confused about these, we just move forward.”

“Well.” Lin Hao nodded slightly and looked out the window.

The sky was overcast, the wind whistled and blew the dead branches, and the shadows were like ghosts.

“The emperor is ill, and the crown prince is vacant. Although the outside is temporarily stable, there may be some trouble inside.” Qi Shuo muttered.

“Then what can we do?” Lin Hao raised his head slightly and asked.

“Like Father King said, we just need to go home early every day.”

King Jing’s mansion has no intention of being disobedient, and at this time, all he can do is to be safe.

King Liang was publicly denied by the emperor in the main hall, and has completely lost the possibility of succeeding the throne. The worst result is the restoration of Emperor Pingle.

Qi Shuo did not think that Emperor Tai’an, who had been in power for many years, was unprepared for this. The smartest thing to do for someone who isn’t ready to swim in muddy waters is to do nothing.

It was cloudy for several days in a row, it got darker and earlier every day, and the moon in the sky became thinner and thinner every night.

The walls of the palace are high, and the interior of the palace seems to be darker than the rest.

The Qianqing Palace became extraordinarily quiet because the Tai’an Emperor had been sleeping for longer and longer, and the palace staff even tried to breathe lightly, lest they disturb the emperor and bring disaster.

Liu Chuan tucked the sleeping Tai’an Emperor into a corner, walked to the window and looked at the fine moon in the sky and sighed softly.

In Yungui Palace, the little prince burst into tears, and the wet nurse who had just fallen asleep got up to coax her, but she couldn’t coax her well. Several palace servants who took care of the little prince were awakened one after another and gathered together.

The little prince is a very well behaved baby, this is the first time crying like this.

“What happened to the little prince?”

“Is there something uncomfortable?”

Nursing patted the little prince’s forehead: “I don’t have a fever, I just checked, and my body is refreshing.”

“Could it be a stomach ache or something? Should I ask a doctor?”

“Please ask an imperial physician?” A palace maid glanced outside, “How can I ask an imperial physician at this time?”

Because of the unspeakable anomaly, the little prince was appointed to invite the imperial physician of the Ping’an pulse. This evening, he had to be summoned by a noble.

Worried about the well-being of the little prince, the maid of Yungui Palace said, “Little Guizi, go and ask Concubine Zhuang for instructions.”

called Xiao Guizi’s waiter, and hurried out of Yungui Palace with a lantern.

As soon as he left the warm palace, the cold wind burrowed inward along his collar, Xiao Guizi shivered, the lantern in his hand shook, and the lights flickered.

Suddenly, he heard footsteps.

Those who can be sent to serve the little prince must be cautious and vigilant. Xiao Guizi subconsciously extinguished the lantern, lying on the ground and holding his breath to listen.

Listening to the ground, the footsteps suddenly became louder.

Xiao Guizi turned pale.

He had a brilliant ear since he was a child, and he could hear far away. The direction of the footsteps was wrong. This was definitely not the movement of the imperial guards in the palace when they were patrolling!

Xiaoguizi got up and approached cautiously in that direction. Suddenly, her pupils shrank, and she froze in place.

A line of guards with armor-piercing knives passed in front of them, and the night obscured their faces, but they could see the abnormality from their deliberately light footsteps.

Where they were going – Xiao Guizi turned her head stiffly, her face turning paler.

These forbidden troops are going to the Qianqing Palace!

What’s the matter, aren’t they the imperial guards? Is it possible to rebel?

Aware of this, Xiao Guizi heard her own thunderous heartbeat.

How to do?

Xiao Guizi had countless thoughts in his mind, but his legs were firmly fixed on the ground as if he had his own consciousness. It was not until the team of guards walked away that they regained control of their hands and feet, and ran to the Yuhe Palace.

“Who is outside?” As soon as a servant in the Qianqing Palace asked, he saw a flash of sword light and blood spurted out.

“No, someone is forcing the palace!” The palace staff who heard the screams shouted loudly when they saw the grim-looking guards.

The Qianqing Palace soon became a mess.

Compared with the unprepared palace servants, this team of guards had a clear goal and went straight to Emperor Tai’an’s dormitory.

“Bold, are you going to rebel?” Liu Chuan came out in a hurry, and the person who saw the leader was shocked, “Commander Zhang, how could it be you?”

Commander Zhang didn’t want to waste time at all, he pushed Liu Chuan away and rushed in.

The inner room has a strong medicinal smell, and the hanging gauze curtain allows only the silhouette of the person lying in it.

Commander Zhang gave a wink, and immediately two guards stepped forward with long knives and raised the bed tent with one.

Emperor Tai’an was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, his cheeks sunken and his face turning yellow, and he didn’t seem to wake up with such movements.

Commander Zhang nodded slightly, and the two imperial guards pinched Emperor Tai’an from left to right.

“Let go of the emperor!” Liu Chuan rushed in.

controlled the emperor, and then Commander Zhang said: “Don’t worry, Eunuch Liu, Zhang will let him go, but I just need you to do one thing.”
