Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Looking at Lu Changan's walking back, Liu Yunxiang frowned deeply.

Lu Changan was angry and even broke up with her, but this was okay, insisting on thinking about the original affection would only make the current situation more embarrassing.

When she decided to remove one of his arms, she had already thought of a countermeasure, but it had to be the right time, place and people.

The next day, Liu Yunxiang got up early as usual.

The palace maid put a phoenix crown on her, put on the Queen Mother's outer clothes of hundreds of birds facing the phoenix, and helped her out of the inner hall.Zijin had just come back from outside and came forward to welcome Liu Yunxiang. He first supported Liu Yunxiang.

"Girl, the guards in the harem have been strengthened."

Liu Yunxiang raised his eyebrows, "A person from Lu Changan?"

"Ah."

"It seems that today he will never allow Yan'er and I to step out of the harem and go to court."

After saying that, Liu Yunxiang took a deep breath and asked, "Is there any movement at the palace gate?"

Zijin shook his head, "No, Feng Zheng is waiting there."

Liu Yunxiang took out the Queen Mother's token from his arms and handed it to Zijin, "You two will guard the entrance of the palace. If necessary, you can respond and then enter the palace with this token."

"Yes." Zijin said, "But where are you, miss?"

"I'm going to Chengtian Palace."

The night has not faded yet, and the early morning light has not yet penetrated.Liu Yunxiang took two palace ladies and walked quickly to Chengtian Palace under the chill of the night.

As expected, there were many more guards in the palace. When they saw Liu Yunxiang, they stepped forward to salute respectfully, but at the same time they also monitored her every move. The blade of the spear could point at her at any time and kill her.

When they arrived at Chengtian Palace, Yan'er had already dressed up. After all, he was a teenager in his teens. No matter how he pretended to be calm, there was still a little panic in his eyes, but when he saw Liu Yunxiang, it dissipated immediately.

"Mother!" Qin Yan stood up and came over to greet her.

Liu Yunxiang stepped forward and hugged his son, "Are you afraid?"

"Don't be afraid!" Qin Yan said crisply.

"Mom is by your side, don't be afraid."

Li Xiuyuan wore a long sword on his waist, with his hand on the hilt of the sword, as if he was ready to draw the sword to protect his master.It's just that he is only about ten years old, and he looks a little cute with his sullen face.

Liu Yunxiang reached out and patted Li Xiuyuan's face, "While you are protecting Yan'er, you must also protect yourself. Don't rush forward. We adults will handle the matter."

Li Xiuyuan blushed, a little shy, and then nodded heavily.

It's dawning, and it's time to set off for the court.

Liu Yunxiang held his son's hand, "We cannot retreat. There are so many ministers who support us. If we retreat, they will be retaliated against. And your father, if we retreat, he will really not survive."

"We will not retreat!" Qin Yan said firmly.

Liu Yunxiang smiled at his son, "As long as we, mother and son, are together, there is nothing to be afraid of."

As the first ray of sunlight shone in in the morning, the mother and son left the main hall and walked to the entrance of Chengtian Palace. As expected, the guards had already surrounded the palace door.

"The emperor is seriously ill, please take the emperor back to the inner palace to take care of him carefully." The head guard lowered his head and said.

"Your Majesty is fine, you can go to court!" Liu Yunxiang said loudly.

"Your Majesty, why do you have to put me in trouble?"

"Insolent! Get out of your way, all of you!"

As soon as these words came out, the guards surrounded the palace entrance even tighter.

"Are you going to rebel?" Liu Yunxiang looked at the captain of the guard and asked coldly. "Your Majesty, Your Majesty is also concerned about the Emperor's health. He will handle the affairs of the court. Please take a good rest, Your Majesty and the Queen Mother."

"This is the palace, and you are the guards in the palace. You don't listen to me and the emperor, but you listen to King Suping?"

The captain of the guard lowered his head and said nothing, as if Liu Yunxiang said or scolded him no matter what, but they would not move.

Liu Yunxiang looked outside, but there was still no movement in the distance. If they couldn't come, then mother and son would really be alone today.Liu Yunxiang gritted his teeth, pulled out the sword from Li Xiuyuan's waist, and placed the blade on the guard's neck.

"You are committing treason below, and I will kill you today to show these people who is in charge of this harem!" Liu Yunxiang said loudly.

However, at this time, the guards did not expect Liu Yunxiang to draw his sword, but they still stood there motionless, as if they were sure that she was just scaring him.

Liu Yunxiang frowned and held the sword in her hand again and again. She knew that as the Queen Mother, she had not yet established her dignity and needed to kill chickens to scare monkeys, but she was somewhat resistant to killing people.

"Mother!" Qin Yan took the sword from Liu Yunxiang's hand.

"Yan'er..."

As soon as Liu Yunxiang finished speaking, Qin Yan raised the hilt of his sword, and blood spattered. Before the captain of the guard could close his wide eyes, he had already fallen to the ground.Sealing the throat with a sword, the technique was neat and clean.

Seeing this, the guards took a step back and put their hands on the hilt of their swords.

"Whoever dares to come forward again will be deemed to be rebelling and will be killed without mercy!" Liu Yunxiang shouted angrily and stopped the guards from drawing their swords.

Guard, you look at me and I look at you. I don’t dare to draw my sword, but I don’t dare to retreat either.

Liu Yunxiang saw that his son was holding a sword in his hand, with blood dripping from the tip of the sword. He was standing there calmly, with a solemn expression on his face, vaguely possessing the intimidating power of an emperor.

Liu Yunxiang took his son's other hand, and the mother and son walked out step by step.The guards retreated again and again. After more than ten steps, a man came up from behind.

This man is Danqing.

Wearing armor and holding a long sword, he walked up to Liu Yunxiang's mother and son.

"Empress, Your Majesty, please return to the palace!" Danqing saluted.

Qin Yan gritted his teeth, raised his sword and stabbed him.Danqing's eyes darkened, he turned around, dodged the sword and grabbed the hilt at the same time.Qin Yan fought back and the two fought together.

"Yan'er!" Liu Yunxiang frowned.

Danqing is not the captain of the guard, he is Lu Changan's personal attendant. When he comes, it means that he is here on behalf of Lu Changan, and he will definitely stop them.

Li Xiuyuan drew his sword and went up. Several of Danqing's men also went up. After a fight, the swords in Qin Yan and Li Xiuyuan's hands were taken away.

"You really want to rebel!" Qin Yan said angrily.

Dan Qing still saluted respectfully, "Your Majesty is ill, please go back to the inner palace to rest. After the next court, the prince will come back to the palace to visit you."

Qin Yan gritted his teeth and raised his fist to strike, "I'm not sick!"

Liu Yunxiang hurriedly grabbed him and shook his head at him.

"Mom!" Qin Yan was a little anxious.

"They are here."

Liu Yunxiang pulled Qin Yan to the steps and passed the guards. They saw a group of people walking towards this side.The leaders were General Wei and General Su. Between them was an old man with white hair and a white beard. Despite his age, he had a steady pace and a rosy face.

Behind them were ministers wearing court uniforms, more than a dozen of them. Qin Yan saw Gao Wenchang, the Minister of Punishment, at a glance.

Danqing also heard the noise, turned around and looked over, and was shocked to see this scene.

The guard didn't respond and was still stuck in the road.General Wei swung it away and knocked it down.

"A bunch of blind people dare to block the way of our princess and the crown prince, and they all deserve to die!" (End of Chapter)
