Three days later, King Chi got married. Xiao Se put on gorgeous clothes early in the morning and went to the palace with Sikong Changfeng, Lei Hong and Lei Yunhe, who were disguised as guards.

Although the Chi Wang's wedding was hasty, the Ministry of Rites still mobilized all its manpower to arrange the wedding banquet in the imperial palace. Not only would civil and military officials attend, but it was rumored that even Emperor Mingde would show up.

At the same time Xiao Se left the Yong'an Palace, Li Hanyi, Sikong Qianluo and Lei Wujie quietly left through the back door.

According to the plan, Xiao Se will bring Sikong Changfeng and the other two into the palace. Each of them is at the Great Free and Easy Realm and can barely hold back the Solitary Sword Immortal for a while.

Li Hanyi will take Sikong Qianluo and the others and sneak into the palace quietly. They will be picked up by Eunuch Jinyu and will wait for an opportunity to rescue Emperor Mingde.

Eunuch Jinyu is a man of Prince Bai Xiao Chong.

Xiao Se had already reached a cooperation with Xiao Chong in private, and this operation must succeed and not fail.

Outside Tianqi City, the Prince of Langya, holding Ye Xiaoying's tiger talisman to mobilize troops, was hiding on the mountain with 30,000 border troops.

The commander of the imperial guards, Lu Dingsheng, transferred most of the troops in the city to the vicinity of the imperial palace. Ostensibly, this was to protect the safety of the wedding, but in fact, as long as Xiao Se gave the order, Lu Dingsheng would open the city gates and let the army of the Prince of Langya enter Tianqi. He would also be the first to control all the civil and military officials.

In Tianqi City, an invisible net was covering the head of Red King Xiao Yu, but he was still unaware of it. He happily wore red clothes, paraded through the streets, and came to Ye Mansion to pick up his bride with music and dance all the way.

Ye Ruoyi dressed neatly early in the morning and waited quietly. Ye Xiaoying stayed by his daughter's side.

"Ruoyi, don't worry. I pretended to surrender to King Chi, but in fact I have replaced all the palace guards with my own people. I will definitely be able to rescue His Majesty before you get married." Ye Xiaoying whispered to his daughter.

"Father, after Prince Yong'an rescued His Majesty, he asked Miss Hua Jin to treat him. She will definitely be able to wake His Majesty up. As long as His Majesty wakes up, he will be able to restore order." Ye Ruoyi, dressed in red, said softly.

"Okay." Ye Xiaoying sighed, "Daughter, I'm sorry for wronging you. When everything is over, your father will definitely compensate you."

When Ye Xiaoying noticed that the people of the Red King were coming over, he immediately shut up and pretended to be reluctant to say to Ye Ruoyi: "Daughter, after you marry into the Red King's mansion, you must take care of your husband and children, and put your husband first in everything."

"My daughter knows." Ye Ruoyi said obediently.

The Red King's men approached and said to Ye Xiaoying: "General Ye, the Red King is at the door, you should also get ready!"

"Okay." Ye Xiaoying nodded, looked at his daughter meaningfully, then turned and left, heading towards the main hall.

On the way, Ye Xiaoying asked the people around him: "Is your highness ready?"

"General, rest assured. The prince's army is ready and is just waiting for the imperial guards to open the city gates."

Ye Xiaoying nodded and said, "This wedding is a great opportunity. If Prince Chi and Prince Yong'an can both be defeated, there will be no obstacles for His Royal Highness to ascend the throne."

It turns out that Ye Xiaoying openly joined King Chi and secretly helped King Yong'an, but he was actually the Prince of Langya's man.

Everything he did was to help the Prince of Langya ascend the throne.

Back then, the King of Langya was accused of treason by Emperor Mingde and was beheaded in front of the palace. The Crown Prince Xiao Lingchen had to go into exile overseas. He only returned to Beili in recent years and restored his title.

Ye Xiaoying has been looking for an opportunity for revenge. This time, the Red King Xiao Yu poisoned Emperor Mingde and controlled the palace, giving Ye Xiaoying a legitimate opportunity to let the Prince of Langya lead his troops into the capital.

"General, the young lady doesn't know our plan. What if something goes wrong at the wedding? Isn't it too risky?"

Ye Xiaoying said in a deep voice: "I have already made arrangements. After King Chi picks up the bride and Ruoyi gets on the carriage, someone will exchange identities with her and Ruoyi will be taken to a safe place.

When everything is settled and the prince ascends the throne, I will explain it to Ruoyi."

The two walked to the main hall. Ye Xiaoying asked his men to do things according to the plan, while he and the Red King Xiao Yuxu negotiated and completed the bride-picking process.

Originally everything was going according to Ye Xiaoying's plan, but when Ye Ruoyi was taken out of the house, Ye Xiaoying's expression changed slightly after he saw the wedding carriage.

He discovered that the wedding carriage had been replaced with a new one, and it was not the original one with the hidden mechanism.

King Chi glanced at Ye Xiaoying's expression and said proudly, "Father-in-law, when my foster father inspected the carriage this morning, he discovered that there were assassins lurking in the dark, so I changed it."

Ye Xiaoying remained calm and asked, "Has the assassin been caught?"

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "The assassin was dealt with by my godfather on the spot. Who do you think the assassin disguised himself as?" Ye Xiaoying clenched his fists, his knuckles turned white, but he still said calmly, "Who is it?"

"The assassin actually disguised himself as Miss Ruoyi. He must be planning to take the place of the bride and wait for an opportunity to assassinate me." Xiao Yu said happily:
"But the assassin never expected that my adoptive father is not only invincible, but also meticulous."

Ye Xiaoying forced a smile and said, "Xian Luo Jianxian has broken through the Divine Wandering Profound Realm and is already a divine being. He can do what ordinary people cannot. How can a mere assassin succeed?"

"My father-in-law is right. As long as my adoptive father is here, no one in the world can kill me." Xiao Yu laughed arrogantly.

Ye Xiaoying could only smile along and watch his daughter get on the carriage.

The moment the carriage door closed, Ye Xiaoying's hand trembled.

"My Lord Father-in-law, I will go first, you should follow me quickly."

Xiao Yu mounted his horse in high spirits and led the wedding procession to the palace.

After the team walked away, Ye Xiaoying's men quietly asked: "General, do we need to change the plan?"

Ye Xiaoying's expression changed several times, and finally he gritted his teeth and said, "The plan remains unchanged. Wait for my signal and help His Royal Highness the Crown Prince lead his army into the city."

"What about the lady?"

Ye Xiaoying said coldly: "For the sake of the prince's cause, it's nothing to take a little risk! Bring more people with me into the palace, and then we will do our best to protect Ruoyi, don't worry about me."

…………

Inside the palace, Li Hanyi and others changed into eunuch uniforms and, under the guidance of Eunuch Jinyu, arrived smoothly in front of Emperor Mingde's bedroom.

In order to "protect" Emperor Mingde, Xiao Yu sent two hundred elite soldiers to guard the palace.

Eunuch Jinyu was one of the five great supervisors, but he was unable to transfer the two hundred elite soldiers away.

"Li Jianxian, the emperor is in the bedroom." Eunuch Jinyu said to Li Hanyi, "We must hurry, otherwise we will be in trouble if the Red King finds out."

Li Hanyi asked: "Besides the two hundred elite soldiers, did the Red King arrange anyone else?"

Jin Yu shook his head and said, "No, King Chi has transferred all the experts to the wedding banquet."

Li Hanyi nodded, then drew out the soft sword hidden at his waist and said, "I'll take care of the two hundred soldiers. Wu Jie and Qian Luo, you go in and rescue them."

"Sister, is your injury serious?" Lei Wujie said worriedly.

"I took Hua Jin's medicine and I will be fine within an hour."

Li Hanyi didn't waste any more words and used a move called "Moonlit Night and Morning Flower". With one sword, he broke through the armor of 87. Tang Lian cooperated with Li Hanyi and scattered hidden weapons all over the sky.

Lei Wujie and Sikong Qianluo rushed directly into Emperor Mingde's bedroom and ran towards the dragon bed.

The two vaguely saw a person lying on the dragon bed.

Lei Wujie and Sikong Qianluo approached and were immediately shocked.

Emperor Mingde was lying on the dragon bed, bleeding from all seven orifices and a dagger stuck in his chest.

At this time, a large number of soldiers suddenly appeared outside the palace. Eunuch Jin Xuan, the head of the Five Great Supervisors, shouted: "Catch the assassin, your majesty has been assassinated."

Eunuch Jinyu suddenly took out a dagger and stabbed it into Li Hanyi's lower back.

"You!?" Li Hanyi turned around in shock and slashed at Jin Yu with a sword, but was easily dodged.

Jin Yu flew to the side of Eunuch Jin Xuan and said with a wicked smile: "Prince Yong'an is extremely treasonous and sent people into the palace to assassinate Your Majesty!"

Li Hanyi was shocked and pulled out the dagger from his waist. He knew that he had fallen into the trap of the Red King and Xiao Se was in greater danger. (End of this chapter)
