Shijiu thought for a while, and felt that what Lianyi said was right. If there were no traversers, there would not be so much resentment. In theory, it was right to do so. After he let go of this, he directly changed the subject.

"Yuanchen's second daughter has almost gathered the manpower, and now she is entering the capital in batches, don't you want to prepare?"

"What are you going to do? If she has the ability to kill me, the throne will naturally belong to her. If she is not capable, just wait to be imprisoned!"

Lianyi threw the chess piece in his hand into the chess box, and said indifferently.

"The heart is so big!"

Three days later, Fengdi sent a letter from Feiying, bringing back the news of the great defeat of Panlong Kingdom, and at the same time, the news that the second princess was entangled with the main generals of the Zhao family and was going to force the palace while returning to the capital to receive the reward. .

Lianyi was very calm, so she recruited the phoenix head and asked her to arrange someone to keep an eye on the commander of the imperial guards. When Zhuo Xiuyuan rescued him last time, the second princess called the imperial guards, and she also found out the commander of the imperial guards. It was the Zhao family who supported it, and it was regarded as the natural alliance of the second princess.

Then, taking advantage of the opportunity to prepare for the triumphant return of the army, the guards of the entire palace were replaced by the queen's personal guards, and everything was proceeding in an orderly manner.

However, Xian Shijun who was in the palace noticed something was wrong, he endured it for two days, and finally went to see Lianyi, and asked worriedly:

"Empress, what happened in the palace, don't hide it from me."

"It's not a big deal, it's just that some people are anxious and want to take my position."

Ripple said with a smile.

Xian Shijun shrank his pupils after hearing this, and said hastily:

"Empress, she will definitely not be the third princess. She told me herself that she is not capable of sitting in that position, and she has never thought about it."

"Axian, I didn't say it was the third princess, don't be so anxious to get angry."

Lianyi smiled, and pushed the teacup in front of her to Xian Shijun, telling him not to worry.

Xian Shijun was a little embarrassed at this time, holding the teacup to steady himself, and said firmly:

"I'll be with you!"

"it is good!"

Twenty days later, the troops participating in the war arrived at the capital, and the second princess, who had quietly returned three days earlier, had already joined the large army. After nodding to Zhao Li, she joined the team returning to the city, accepting People in the capital lined the streets to welcome them.

The [-] troops who returned together did not enter the city, but stationed [-] miles outside the city. After the reward was over, they would return to the city where they were originally stationed.

When the sun was setting, General Feng Ming suddenly appeared at the army camp thirty miles away, holding an eagle talisman, and mobilized 5 people to go straight to the palace with light clothes.

At this time, the evening palace banquet had already begun, and Lianyi sat at the first place to entertain the generals who had returned in triumph this time.

"Everyone has worked so hard. This time I was able to defeat the Panlong Kingdom in one fell swoop and tear a piece of flesh from them. Everyone has contributed a lot. I respect you with this cup of wine!"

"Thank you Queen!"

The generals stood up, took the glass of wine, and after drinking it all, Lianyi raised his glass again, and said solemnly:
"This cup of wine is dedicated to those soldiers who died in the war. They are the pride of my Fengqi country. After the rewards are over, I will definitely let them go to the ground and build a tombstone, so that future generations will always remember their sacrifices!"

"Always remember!"

The crowd responded in unison.

After the two rounds of drinking, the atmosphere of the palace banquet gradually became more heated, but the Xian Shijun who had been sitting under Lianyi's hands hadn't even touched a drop of wine, and he was always vigilant about everything around him.

With a sound of "嗖", an arrow shot from outside the gate of the main hall, and went straight to Lianyi. Xian Shijun immediately got up without hesitation, and wanted to block the sword with his body, but was pushed by Lianyi and fell back to his original position. And the arrow grazed Ripple's earlobe, shattered an earring, and shot into the throne.

"Escort!"

Hui Zhi's mezzo-soprano sounded in the hall, and all the generals who were pushing cups to change cups all jumped up and touched their waists, but when they entered the hall, they all took off their swords.

At this time, the maid behind them quickly handed a sword back to the master's hand, and then rushed to the front of the throne with a dagger in her hand, becoming the queen's first line of defense.

At this time, the eldest princess, the third princess, and the virtuous servant had all gathered in front of Lianyi, all of them had serious expressions, but only Lianyi's expression was very calm, touched Kongkong's earlobe, and said with some displeasure:

"This is my favorite cat's eye earring, how could I ruin one of them."

"Empress, you are old! It's time to step aside!"

At this time, the second princess was wearing armor and holding a sharp sword, and under the protection of the Zhao family army, she strode into the hall.

"What if I don't give up?"

Ripple asked quietly.

"The imperial mother wrote the abdication edict to me. You are the supreme empress with a high status. If you don't write it, don't blame me for not caring about the mother-daughter relationship."

"Even if I wrote the abdication edict, you would not let me live to see the sun on the second day, you want to kill the king, this is unfilial!

Because of your ambition, you joined forces with the Panlong Kingdom, assassinated your third sister, put those dead men into Zhuoxiu Garden, and wanted to borrow a knife to kill someone, but in the end, the knife killed your father. This is injustice!

Those grain merchants who drove up grain prices were also sent to Fengqi Kingdom through Zhao Li, the border guard, by you. It is inhumane to trap the people in dire straits!
You are unfilial, unkind, unrighteous, immoral, and incompetent, what qualifications do you have to sit on the throne! "

Lianyi's voice was cold and without a trace of emotion, listing the crimes of the second princess one by one, which shocked the generals in the hall, who did not expect that this son and daughter had already done this for the sake of the throne.

"Shut up!"

The second princess's face was flushed red, and it was the first time she was reprimanded by her own queen since she was a child.

"Second princess, don't be angered by a few words. The sword is in our hands, and our Zhao family army is outside the palace. We must succeed today!"

Zhao Li squinted her eyes and whispered in the ear of the second princess.

"Heh, that's why I said you're stupid. Even if you succeed in forcing the palace today, won't you be restrained? It's Zhao's army outside the door, not Wu's army."

Lianyi sneered, pulled out her own sword directly, injected the spiritual power of the third level of refining Qi into the sword body, and then swung the sword down in full view, saying only one word, "Kill!"

In the next moment, Zhao Li, who was still holding the winning ticket, was split in two. The moment the blood splashed, everyone around the second princess was overturned by a huge force, and the second princess was not spared.

After a short period of silence, the generals lifted their spirits, held the sabers in their hands, and rushed into the opposite Zhao family's army like a charge.

Lianyi emptied her spiritual energy, but it also shocked everyone. She stared indifferently at the second princess who raised her sword to resist, her eyes were full of disappointment, she thought she could last longer, but she turned out to be so vulnerable.

The generals here protected the civil servants and withdrew to the Queen's side. The sound of fighting outside the hall had already reached the ears of everyone in the hall, and the flames lit up half of the sky.
