Lady forced to seek prince

Xiao Yu carefully put away the family letters and stood up calmly and looked at the hourglass beside him.

The time is almost up.

"Open the door," Xiao Yu glanced at Huaiguang, "Let's go to the palace gate."

Having not been on the battlefield for a long time, Huaiguang was even less timid. Huaiguang was ashamed by his own prince's glance and hurriedly bowed his head in response.

In fact, Huaiguang's courage is not small. After all, this is in the capital, and his home is being watched by so many people. The last time his master was plotted against him, he almost lost his life, which left a big shadow in his heart. After that, he did something You have to be more careful in everything you do, but not everything is guaranteed, just like this time.

……

The various families who were ambushing outside the courtyard were thinking of sending out people to find out the news, at least to determine how many people were inside. When someone moved at the palace gate, they could swarm up and catch King Yu on the spot.

At that time, whether to send him to Zongzhengji Prison or to kill him on the spot will be discussed separately.

Before the people sent out could get close to the wall of the house, the closed door suddenly opened, startling them. One of the nearest spies even slumped and sat on the ground, and did not look back for a long time. After a while, he was finally dragged by his companions and hid in a corner.

You can't be discovered before you even take action, right?

The foreheads of several spies were covered with sweat. If the armed guards came directly to arrest them, they would have no choice but to kill themselves to avoid suffering in the prison of the armed guards.

However... things didn't seem to develop as they feared.

The footsteps seemed to be getting farther and farther away from them.

The bold spy first stretched out his head to check, and then his eyes widened in disbelief. He saw King Yu...

"King Yu...King Yu," the spy's lips moved as he shouted silently, "King Yu is coming out."

Xiao Yu just walked out of the courtyard with the guards around him.

The people who were ambushing here received orders from the top. If King Yu wanted to escape, they would try their best to stop King Yu in the courtyard. In short, they would not let him leave.

But now, King Yu has really come forward, but it is completely different from what they expected.

Because King Yu had no intention of escaping in a hurry.

At this time, King Yu was wearing a crimson robe, red robe, and bright red covering his knees. The python pattern embroidered on the brocade ribbon shone golden in the sunlight. This robe is very similar to the emperor's court robe. At first glance, it reminds people of the portrait of Taizu enshrined in the Ancestral Temple.

This is a descendant of the Xiao family, the most noble person in Daqi besides the emperor. Before the emperor had no heirs, King Yu was the next heir to the throne, both emotionally and rationally.

So facing such a person, who dares to make the first move?

The important thing is that King Yu didn't look like he was running away, because he was wearing court clothes.

No matter who it is, it is impossible to walk out of the city in court clothes in front of so many people.

King Yu clearly wanted to enter the palace to see the emperor, and the palace card around his waist proved this.

The palace card is surrounded by gold. Only when the emperor specially invites ministers to enter the palace, will he ask his confidants to hand over the palace card.

Those holding the palace card can even enter and exit the inner palace.

Only now did everyone realize that the emperor and King Yu are now standing together. Without the emperor's order, if they deal with King Yu, it will be a rebellion and rebellion.

Among them, there are naturally the Grand Master's soldiers and horses, but now these people have not taken action.

King Yu came out of the courtyard too early.

No news has come out from the palace gate yet. What name do you want them to use to arrest people? The deputy general who led the troops looked around and saw the military guards following King Yu. Without the help of others, they were no match for those people.

Besides, who knows if the emperor has sent people around?

Unless the people ambushing here work together, there is a chance of victory, but now except for them, the others are obviously still waiting and watching, and it is impossible to end.

"General, if not we release arrows and kill King Yu." There is no way the arrows can take down King Yu. There are too many places to hide on the street.

The Wuwei Army had discovered them a long time ago, how could they not be prepared at all.

The deputy general shook his head, and the military leader next to him couldn't help but said: "How dare he..."

"Perhaps he is too confident," said the deputy general, "thinking that he will be able to frame the Grand Master."

The military leader said: "Then what should we do now?"

The deputy general thought for a while: "News is coming soon. Wait a moment. As soon as you see our people sending a signal, we will take action immediately."

The military leader responded.

King Yu did not quicken his pace. He did not even look at the moving heads around him, as if he did not take them to heart.

The Grand Master's men clenched their hands.

Soon, King Yu will flee in panic.

……

At the same time, many people gathered around the palace gate one after another.

Everyone stared at Meng Gongren, waiting for her to continue speaking.

After Meng Gongren gasped for breath, he continued: "Everyone must be curious as to why I am in prison, right? The assassination of Princess Yu is indeed related to me. I heard from spies that Princess Yu is pregnant. I am afraid that some people will support Prince Yu against the Emperor because of this. It was unfavorable, so I allowed my subordinates to act on their own in the domain, hoping to cause some trouble."

"Unexpectedly, someone took it upon themselves to assassinate Princess Yu and was caught on the spot by the armed guards. Only then did King Yu send people to Beijing to investigate the matter."

Meng Gongren suddenly had a smile on his face: "I have done so many things for the emperor, but I almost failed because of this. Fortunately, the grand master appeared and gave me another chance."

The steward of the Grand Master's Mansion frowned slightly when he heard Meng Gongren's words. Meng Gongren's words sounded a bit strange. Shouldn't she be talking about how King Yu threatened her?

Before the steward could figure it out, Meng Gongren continued: "I voluntarily received the beating and voluntarily stayed in the prison."

Suddenly a chill ran down the steward's spine and he looked at Meng Gongren with wide eyes. He felt that Meng Gongren's next words might not be what they expected.

Meng Gongren suddenly looked at the steward of the Grand Master's Mansion and said one word at a time: "I stayed here to find out who bribed my people to assassinate Princess Yu, alienate the Emperor and Prince Yu, and profit from it."

"The Emperor has paid off, and that person finally showed up..."

Meng Gongren suddenly turned around and pointed at the Grand Master's sedan.

"The Grand Master guessed that I would be resentful of the Emperor and Prince Yu after suffering so much. If he rescued me from the prison, I would definitely sacrifice my life for him."

"But he doesn't know that I'm struggling so hard because I'm waiting for him. Even if I risk my life, I still have to see clearly who made me almost become a sinner in Daqi."

At this moment, Meng Gongren's cheeks were a little sickly red, and her arms were shaking slightly due to weakness, but her expression was decisive and firm.

"Do you think the Grand Master is really in that sedan? No, the Grand Master is outside the city with his troops and horses at the moment, waiting to use me to frame the Queen of Yu and start a military rebellion. As long as the Emperor breaks away from the brothers of the King of Yu, he will be detained by the King of Yu. If he is accused of deceiving the emperor, he can incite the troops and manpower in the capital to attack King Yu."

An arrow shot out from the hand of the steward of the Taishi Mansion and went straight to Meng Gongren's chest. At this moment, a steel knife swung down and saved Meng Gongren.

There was chaos all around.

When Wei Xian saw this, he shouted loudly: "The Meng Palace people were instructed by King Yu to frame the teacher. We want to seek justice for the teacher."

After Wei Xian finished speaking, there were students who didn't know what was going on and wanted to join in.

Just as the basin of boiling water was about to boil, a young voice sounded: "Who are you going to seek justice from?"
