Your daughter's strategy
Chapter 86 Siege
Returning Soul Bell, Guishen, is only rung when the emperor dies, and now that the bell is ringing, most people in the capital may think that the emperor has passed away!
Xu Miaoyun made a decisive decision and took Taining back to the Chengde Hall, just in time to meet Yang Minzhi who came out of it, he was also stunned when he heard the bell, Xu Miaoyun stopped him: "Don't even think about leaving the palace at this time, it's important to protect the emperor. "
Yang Minzhi looked serious, and returned to Chengde Hall.
There was no one in the Chengde Hall. The emperor was lying on the bed coughing, his face was pale, while the empress looked solemn. The soul-returning bell was rung. No need to guess, it must be the masterpiece of Concubine An. With Taining and Xu Miaoyun who were following behind, the queen couldn't help but panic: "What are you two doing here? Go back quickly and go to the queen mother's palace."
If King Duan really intends to mutiny, the only person he dare not move is the Queen Mother.
Taining's eyes turned red immediately, and he ran to the queen.
King Duan, who was supposed to be in the northwest, appeared outside the east gate of the capital at this moment. The soldiers guarding the gate were all panicked and whispered when they heard the sound of the returning soul bell, but King Duan smiled coldly. To cover up, he wants to rely on his own strength to take away what belongs to him!
He said to Wang Heng, who was also dressed in uniform: "You lead people to take good care of all the famous and surnamed families in the capital, and you are only allowed to enter but not to leave, especially Kang Wang's mansion and Xu's family. Don't let them find opportunities to take advantage of."
Wang Heng clasped his fists and said yes, but he was worried that King Duan would enter the city alone, but King Duan said: "Only if I enter the city alone can I enter the palace smoothly. When the time comes, you will surround the palace with the soldiers and horses from the five cities." , don’t alarm the three battalions.”
Wang Heng's face was serious.Seeing that King Duan entered the city alone, he separated from his soldiers and acted on their own.
Within a quarter of an hour, Xu Jinghan heard the sound of horseshoes, swords and halberds, as well as soldiers shouting and cursing in the courtyard of Xu's family. She looked solemn and looked at Xu Run'an next to her. Xu Run'an said: "Family matters Give it to the second sister."
Xu Jinghan nodded: "Brother, be careful."
Seeing Xu Run'an quietly gathered in the front yard with the nurse, she entered the back house.He ordered the girl to help Mrs. Xu, and Mrs. Xu, Xie Zhilan and Yan Jingyi entered the newly built courtyard together. Because of the preparations in advance, the Xu family was silent, no one spoke loudly, and no one panicked.
Everyone methodically locked the valuables displayed in the hall into the warehouse.Then they entered the courtyard in an orderly manner and waited. When the people led by Wang Heng arrived at Xu's house, Xu's house had already become an empty house.
Standing in the courtyard of Su's house, Xu Peining also heard the commotion outside. She went back to the house and took out the custom-made fireworks for the Mid-Autumn Festival and placed them in the yard, ordering them to light them.It was already dusk, and gorgeous fireworks rushed into the sky.Although it was fleeting, Tang's family, Xie's family, Cheng's family, Feng's family, Zhang's family who lived not far away... all saw it and started to act on their own.
tonight.Doomed not to sleep.
At this moment, King Duan has successfully entered the palace, although the guards at the palace gate saw him as if they had seen a ghost.But they were all immersed in the ringing of the returning soul bell just now, and before realizing what happened, King Duan hurried all the way to Chengde Hall.
To his surprise, the whole palace seemed completely defenseless, the maids and eunuchs still walked down the long street with their heads down, the guards of the Chengde Palace were also working normally, and even a parrot raised by the emperor himself in the corridor of the Chengde Palace was still alive and kicking.
Eunuch Liang waited outside the palace gate, and bowed when he saw Prince Duan: "This old slave has seen the prince, the emperor has been waiting for the prince for a long time."
Make a fool of yourself!
King Duan sneered and entered the Chengde Hall. Wang Heng had already controlled the capital, and there were people from him in the three major battalions. I'm afraid they drank wine mixed with Mongolian sweat medicine and fell unconscious. Now they just need to wait and kill King Ancheng and Xu Jinghuan's [-] dead soldiers arrived, this capital city, this world, is his!
The gorgeous Chengde Hall is now only cold. The emperor is lying on the couch, and there is no maid and eunuch serving him. He looks haggard, but his eyes are very calm. King Duan walked over slowly, seeing the emperor coughing non-stop, he gave He poured a glass of water and served him to drink it.
He has done countless things and is very proficient, but the emperor was in tears. He held King Duan's hand: "Dongzhen, isn't I good enough for you?"
Duan Wang was expressionless: "If you treat me well, you should make me the crown prince early."
The emperor smiled wryly: "Do you think it is easy to make a prince? If you had a son early, I would have justified you to be a prince ten years ago!"
King Duan shook the emperor's hand abruptly: "Son, son! I don't have a son, and I can still be emperor. If you don't help me, I can do the same. Now that your eldest son is in Guchengguan, Song Sanqi probably killed him a long time ago. , As for your grandson, hmph, aren't you the most proud of him, I'm afraid he has already been chopped into meat sauce, and Kang Wang's mansion is also surrounded by me, I am afraid that none of your grandsons will survive Already!"
The emperor's face turned pale with anger, and he pointed at King Duan, but King Duan's expression became more and more cruel: "The bell of returning to the soul has already rung, no matter what, I will treat you as dead, you write down the imperial edict and make me the crown prince, I promise Let you enjoy your old age comfortably, and as for the queen mother and empress, I will definitely not make things difficult for women, you can settle this account."
The emperor sneered: "I'm afraid that as soon as I write the imperial edict, you will kill me to silence me, let alone the empress dowager, you evil bastard, I am really blind!"
Duan Wang laughed loudly: "Didn't you just see my ambition? If I don't show you my ability, how can I make you trust me?"
He had a smile on his face, but his expression became more and more cold: "I didn't intend to do this. If you had pointed out Yan Yucheng to me as my son early in the morning, if you hadn't checked the account of the account department, I really never thought that I would leave. This step, Kang Wang, he is my enemy and my brother. I still remember that when I was ignorant, he took me to play. I really didn’t want to kill him. You forced me to do this. .”
The emperor was speechless, a string of tears flowed from the corner of his eyes, choked up silently, his son, his grandson...
Duan Wang looked at his weak and helpless father, but he remembered something from a long time ago, which was forgotten by others.But he remembers it clearly.
At that time, he was only eight years old, and he was the most lively and mischievous. Once he went to the imperial dining room to get some snacks. The eunuchs in the imperial dining room were respectful to him, but said behind his back, he was just a prince from a humble background. Comparable to the eldest prince who was born by Concubine Tang Yu, that is a person of gold and jade. What is Concubine An?If it wasn't for his good looks.I met the emperor again, I'm afraid I'm still farming now.
He didn't understand, but he heard the sarcasm in the words, and he was very surprised, why would others say that he is not as good as the First Prince?
He began to pay attention to the eldest prince slowly, but the eldest prince was not as smart as him.But he is more diligent and studious than him. The first prince is not as strong as him, but he is more gentle and elegant than him. The more difficult it is to win, the more he wants to beat the other party until he understands.The royal father's throne will pass to one of the two brothers in the future, he swore.That person must be him, he must trample his brother under his feet.
But he gradually discovered that this is a very difficult thing, because the eldest prince is the eldest son and has a good name, so he is respected by the ministers, especially Xu Yichen who taught the eldest prince by himself.He is a loyal supporter of the First Prince, how could he tolerate it.
He took the Xu family under the knife.Let all the ministers in the court feel insecure and dare not mention the matter of establishing a prince. He pleases his father and uses the authority given to him by his father to suppress the people below. He has tasted the taste of power from this, and he can't stop.
At that time, he naively thought that as long as he ascended to the throne, he would not fight brothers and sisters with the eldest prince, but the reality is so cruel, the eldest prince's sons were born one after another, and the father was as happy as something, As soon as he was born, he was named the king of the county, but he had nothing to do for many years, and finally only got a Fangyu.
The emperor looked at him with more and more disappointed and anxious eyes, and the minister looked at him with more and more disdain.
He hates, he has no way to do it, the matter of heirs depends on God's will and luck, not man-made, and not having a son has become the deepest pain in his heart.
So he firmly grasped the power in his hands, trained soldiers as much as possible, made money, and made himself stronger and richer, but no matter how powerful he was, if the three sons of the eldest prince stood in front of him, he would have nowhere to stand He admitted that he was driven crazy by the matter of the heir, but only when he was crazy could he feel better.
At this time, he began to be thankful, thankful that he had practiced martial arts since he was a child, learning to form troops, thankful that his father trusted him and entrusted the military power to him, and also thankful that the first prince back then, the present King Kang, was kind, even if there were excuses , and never put him to death.
Duan Wang looked at his father who looked like an old man on the couch, but his heart was full of passion. This world is destined to be his!The annals of history are also written by him!
The emperor panted heavily, watching King Duan standing in front of the desk and writing the imperial decree, and asked him to seal the seal, then angrily grabbed the imperial decree and threw it on his face, King Duan did not move, but with the sound of the imperial decree falling on the ground , Yang Minzhi, who had been hiding behind, rushed in, eyeing King Duan covetously.
Duan Wang looked at Yang Minzhi with the eyes of a clown: "Keeping you alive is already a gift to you, so don't you hurry up and end it yourself?"
Yang Minzhi sneered: "Then I would like to thank the lord for your generosity. You are allowed to live until now. Are you too confident to enter the palace alone? Are you sure that the emperor is not willing to kill you?"
Duan Wang snorted coldly: "Without all preparations, how could I enter the palace at will."
Accompanied by King Duan's voice, was the panicked voice of Eunuch Liang outside: "Your Majesty, something is wrong! The eunuchs and maids of the Sixth Palace have rebelled! Now the Chengde Palace has been completely surrounded."
Yang Minzhi's face darkened, but King Duan laughed triumphantly. The affairs in the palace were naturally managed by his good mother An Guifei, and her mother did not live up to his expectations.
He looked at the emperor: "Father, you can seal it, why make such an embarrassing scene?"
The emperor pointed at him, unable to utter a word, finally fainted, Yang Minzhi rushed over to see that the emperor was still alive, he was relieved, but his heart sank.
Not to mention that I don't know the outside situation, but looking at the current situation in the palace, it is extremely difficult to control. If King Duan really succeeds and gets the seal, then all this will be irreversible, but fortunately the emperor was prepared, he coldly He looked at Duan Wang coldly.
However, King Duan ignored Yang Minzhi and went out of the Chengde Hall. When he saw the silent court ladies and eunuchs who surrounded the Chengde Hall, he smiled admiringly and said loudly: "You have done a good job. When this king ascends the throne, the first The thing is to reward you, let those of you who want to be officials become officials, and those who want to go home go home. Never break your promise!"
At this time, there was a sneer from the crowd, and Wang Duan's expression changed. Looking over, the crowd slowly parted, and a figure dressed as a court lady walked out, but couldn't hide his arrogance: "Third brother, your abacus is too good. If they believe in you, I'm afraid they will be the first to silence you after the matter is done."
Duan Wang looked at the younger sister Taining.He said coldly: "Don't confuse people with gossip, I can kill one or two, how can I kill the entire palace? Taining, you are still young, be sensible, the emperor will not treat you badly."
Tai Ning said proudly: "Why do the court ladies and eunuchs laugh at the matter between us brothers and sisters. Brother Huang, let's go in and talk."
Duan Wang was surprised to see Tai Ning walk into the Chengde Hall, his complexion sank.
Tai Ning was already sitting in front of the emperor, holding the emperor's hand and weeping, Duan Wang said: "If you have something to say, just say it, if you want to stop me, then there is no need."
Taining was crying but didn't speak, but a gentle and soft voice came from the back hall: "How about I have a few words with the prince?"
Duan Wang was astonished.Watching Xu Miaoyun walk out slowly.
Her face was calm and her posture was elegant. If it wasn't for the atmosphere at this time, it would have been just as if she was strolling in the garden. King Duan's surprise was fleeting: "Xu Miaoyun, you are as courageous as your brother!"
Xu Miaoyun said: "I dare not be the lord's compliment, but I do admire the lord. It's considered exhaustive, and I actually hid my brother from it. I always thought that my brother was the smartest person in the world. I didn't expect that in the end, I missed a move and lost. In your hands."
Duan Wang laughed loudly: "Your brother is already very smart, but after all, you are young. You belong to the Xu family. I can't let you go. You can end it yourself."
Xu Miaoyun said: "I prepared a dagger a long time ago, and I didn't think about living. But before I die, I want to ask you, did you have a trace of guilt in your heart when you framed my innocent grandfather and father?"
Duan Wang seemed to be looking at an idiot: "Non-toxic and not a husband, it is your grandfather who is too stupid! It is your father who is too stupid! Since you are blocking my way, you must have the courage to bear the consequences!"
There was no anger or injustice on Xu Miaoyun's face, but she looked towards the palace gate instead: "Brother, you have heard what he said."
Duan Wang was stunned, turned around and looked behind, even Yang Minzhi and Taining turned their heads to look over, but there was no one at the gate of the hall.
King Duan was furious. Before he could speak, he felt his body go cold, and he was stunned. Xu Miaoyun, who was still some distance away from him just now, stood behind him at some point. She held a dagger in her hand. The blade had already sunk into Duan Wang's body.
Duan Wang was stunned, raised his finger and pointed at Xu Miaoyun, but couldn't say a word, Xu Miaoyun said slowly: "I said I prepared a dagger, but it wasn't for me, Duan Wangye, you forced my grandfather to death, Killed my father, you should have thought about today's end."
The name of the dagger is Wushuang, and it is a relic left by his father. The dagger is poisoned, but it is the masterpiece of his brother.
Xu Miaoyun's voice became slower and slower: "Brother said, when you saw your father refused to plead guilty, you killed him with Wuyou. Now, you also died under this kind of poison. Did you pay for it?"
Wuyou is the most poisonous, see blood seal throat.
Duan Wang's eyes widened, but his body slowly fell down, with astonishment and unwillingness on his face.
Xu Miaoyun pulled out the dagger, and it was stained with blood, making the dagger more frosty. Yang Minzhi and Tai Ning seemed to be frozen, both opened their mouths wide and couldn't speak. Then fell to the ground.
Later, recalling this incident again, Xu Miaoyun couldn't remember it clearly, just like arguing with the emperor at the beginning, when she got angry for a while, she couldn't remember what she said when she came to her senses, even if Xu Jinghuan asked her, she could only remember It was Duan Wang's unbelievable face and the dagger dripping blood on the ground.
After all the calculations, King Duan did not expect that a weak woman Xu Miaoyun would attack him, nor did he expect that he would die at the hands of a little girl. All kinds of calculations and conspiracies disappeared under Xu Miaoyun's dagger.
The hall was silent for a long time, Yang Minzhi was the first to come back to his senses, and quickly ran to King Duan to check his breath, he was really out of breath.
He looked at Xu Miaoyun who had fainted on the ground with a complicated expression, just like King Duan chose the most direct method of forcing the palace, Xu Miaoyun also chose the most direct method, she killed King Duan.
Once King Duan died, the rebel army had no leader, and the crisis in the capital could be solved.
What kind of courage made her make this move?A woman raised in a deep boudoir, not to mention killing people with a poisoned dagger, even if a bird hurts its wings, it would be sad for a long time. Yang Minzhi didn't realize that his eyes looking at Xu Miaoyun already had more admiration.
Tai Ning moved her lips and rubbed her eyes, but she still couldn't believe the facts in front of her, until Yang Minzhi shifted her gaze to her: "The next step is to rely on the princess."
Only then did Taining settle down, and said firmly, "Tell me, what should I do?"
The long silence of Chengde Hall made the maids and eunuchs outside gradually become anxious. Eunuch Liang, who was pinned to the ground, was already in despair. When Tai Ning's figure appeared at the door, everyone stretched their necks to look behind her.
Tai Ning sneered: "Don't look, the traitor has already been punished. If you abandon the evil and follow the good, the princess will not blame the public, as if nothing happened. If you insist on going your own way, hmph, then wait for the emperor to punish you!"
The crowd was in an uproar, and someone shouted: "Long live His Royal Highness Duan, the princess, stop coaxing us."
With a bang, Yang Minzhi walked out with a cold face, and threw King Duan's body outside the hall: "Are you trustworthy now? You are slaves and handmaids in the palace, all because of King Duan's accession to the throne." The reward that was given to you later, now that he is dead, your rewards are all in vain, so hurry up and catch him!"
After all, it is a court lady living at the bottom, who dared to muster up the courage to follow Duan Wang to the palace. After seeing Duan Wang's body, this courage gradually dissipated, leaving only infinite fear. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
ps: Duan Wang is dead, I am a little worried that the storyline will be too rushed.
Xu Miaoyun made a decisive decision and took Taining back to the Chengde Hall, just in time to meet Yang Minzhi who came out of it, he was also stunned when he heard the bell, Xu Miaoyun stopped him: "Don't even think about leaving the palace at this time, it's important to protect the emperor. "
Yang Minzhi looked serious, and returned to Chengde Hall.
There was no one in the Chengde Hall. The emperor was lying on the bed coughing, his face was pale, while the empress looked solemn. The soul-returning bell was rung. No need to guess, it must be the masterpiece of Concubine An. With Taining and Xu Miaoyun who were following behind, the queen couldn't help but panic: "What are you two doing here? Go back quickly and go to the queen mother's palace."
If King Duan really intends to mutiny, the only person he dare not move is the Queen Mother.
Taining's eyes turned red immediately, and he ran to the queen.
King Duan, who was supposed to be in the northwest, appeared outside the east gate of the capital at this moment. The soldiers guarding the gate were all panicked and whispered when they heard the sound of the returning soul bell, but King Duan smiled coldly. To cover up, he wants to rely on his own strength to take away what belongs to him!
He said to Wang Heng, who was also dressed in uniform: "You lead people to take good care of all the famous and surnamed families in the capital, and you are only allowed to enter but not to leave, especially Kang Wang's mansion and Xu's family. Don't let them find opportunities to take advantage of."
Wang Heng clasped his fists and said yes, but he was worried that King Duan would enter the city alone, but King Duan said: "Only if I enter the city alone can I enter the palace smoothly. When the time comes, you will surround the palace with the soldiers and horses from the five cities." , don’t alarm the three battalions.”

Eunuch Liang waited outside the palace gate, and bowed when he saw Prince Duan: "This old slave has seen the prince, the emperor has been waiting for the prince for a long time."
Make a fool of yourself!
King Duan sneered and entered the Chengde Hall. Wang Heng had already controlled the capital, and there were people from him in the three major battalions. I'm afraid they drank wine mixed with Mongolian sweat medicine and fell unconscious. Now they just need to wait and kill King Ancheng and Xu Jinghuan's [-] dead soldiers arrived, this capital city, this world, is his!
The gorgeous Chengde Hall is now only cold. The emperor is lying on the couch, and there is no maid and eunuch serving him. He looks haggard, but his eyes are very calm. King Duan walked over slowly, seeing the emperor coughing non-stop, he gave He poured a glass of water and served him to drink it.

The emperor's face turned pale with anger, and he pointed at King Duan, but King Duan's expression became more and more cruel: "The bell of returning to the soul has already rung, no matter what, I will treat you as dead, you write down the imperial edict and make me the crown prince, I promise Let you enjoy your old age comfortably, and as for the queen mother and empress, I will definitely not make things difficult for women, you can settle this account."

The emperor was speechless, a string of tears flowed from the corner of his eyes, choked up silently, his son, his grandson...

Tai Ning said proudly: "Why do the court ladies and eunuchs laugh at the matter between us brothers and sisters. Brother Huang, let's go in and talk."
Duan Wang was surprised to see Tai Ning walk into the Chengde Hall, his complexion sank.
Tai Ning was already sitting in front of the emperor, holding the emperor's hand and weeping, Duan Wang said: "If you have something to say, just say it, if you want to stop me, then there is no need."
Taining was crying but didn't speak, but a gentle and soft voice came from the back hall: "How about I have a few words with the prince?"
Duan Wang was astonished.Watching Xu Miaoyun walk out slowly.
Her face was calm and her posture was elegant. If it wasn't for the atmosphere at this time, it would have been just as if she was strolling in the garden. King Duan's surprise was fleeting: "Xu Miaoyun, you are as courageous as your brother!"
Xu Miaoyun said: "I dare not be the lord's compliment, but I do admire the lord. It's considered exhaustive, and I actually hid my brother from it. I always thought that my brother was the smartest person in the world. I didn't expect that in the end, I missed a move and lost. In your hands."
Duan Wang laughed loudly: "Your brother is already very smart, but after all, you are young. You belong to the Xu family. I can't let you go. You can end it yourself."
Xu Miaoyun said: "I prepared a dagger a long time ago, and I didn't think about living. But before I die, I want to ask you, did you have a trace of guilt in your heart when you framed my innocent grandfather and father?"
Duan Wang seemed to be looking at an idiot: "Non-toxic and not a husband, it is your grandfather who is too stupid! It is your father who is too stupid! Since you are blocking my way, you must have the courage to bear the consequences!"
There was no anger or injustice on Xu Miaoyun's face, but she looked towards the palace gate instead: "Brother, you have heard what he said."
Duan Wang was stunned, turned around and looked behind, even Yang Minzhi and Taining turned their heads to look over, but there was no one at the gate of the hall.
King Duan was furious. Before he could speak, he felt his body go cold, and he was stunned. Xu Miaoyun, who was still some distance away from him just now, stood behind him at some point. She held a dagger in her hand. The blade had already sunk into Duan Wang's body.
Duan Wang was stunned, raised his finger and pointed at Xu Miaoyun, but couldn't say a word, Xu Miaoyun said slowly: "I said I prepared a dagger, but it wasn't for me, Duan Wangye, you forced my grandfather to death, Killed my father, you should have thought about today's end."
The name of the dagger is Wushuang, and it is a relic left by his father. The dagger is poisoned, but it is the masterpiece of his brother.
Xu Miaoyun's voice became slower and slower: "Brother said, when you saw your father refused to plead guilty, you killed him with Wuyou. Now, you also died under this kind of poison. Did you pay for it?"
Wuyou is the most poisonous, see blood seal throat.
Duan Wang's eyes widened, but his body slowly fell down, with astonishment and unwillingness on his face.
Xu Miaoyun pulled out the dagger, and it was stained with blood, making the dagger more frosty. Yang Minzhi and Tai Ning seemed to be frozen, both opened their mouths wide and couldn't speak. Then fell to the ground.
Later, recalling this incident again, Xu Miaoyun couldn't remember it clearly, just like arguing with the emperor at the beginning, when she got angry for a while, she couldn't remember what she said when she came to her senses, even if Xu Jinghuan asked her, she could only remember It was Duan Wang's unbelievable face and the dagger dripping blood on the ground.
After all the calculations, King Duan did not expect that a weak woman Xu Miaoyun would attack him, nor did he expect that he would die at the hands of a little girl. All kinds of calculations and conspiracies disappeared under Xu Miaoyun's dagger.
The hall was silent for a long time, Yang Minzhi was the first to come back to his senses, and quickly ran to King Duan to check his breath, he was really out of breath.
He looked at Xu Miaoyun who had fainted on the ground with a complicated expression, just like King Duan chose the most direct method of forcing the palace, Xu Miaoyun also chose the most direct method, she killed King Duan.
Once King Duan died, the rebel army had no leader, and the crisis in the capital could be solved.
What kind of courage made her make this move?A woman raised in a deep boudoir, not to mention killing people with a poisoned dagger, even if a bird hurts its wings, it would be sad for a long time. Yang Minzhi didn't realize that his eyes looking at Xu Miaoyun already had more admiration.
Tai Ning moved her lips and rubbed her eyes, but she still couldn't believe the facts in front of her, until Yang Minzhi shifted her gaze to her: "The next step is to rely on the princess."
Only then did Taining settle down, and said firmly, "Tell me, what should I do?"
The long silence of Chengde Hall made the maids and eunuchs outside gradually become anxious. Eunuch Liang, who was pinned to the ground, was already in despair. When Tai Ning's figure appeared at the door, everyone stretched their necks to look behind her.
Tai Ning sneered: "Don't look, the traitor has already been punished. If you abandon the evil and follow the good, the princess will not blame the public, as if nothing happened. If you insist on going your own way, hmph, then wait for the emperor to punish you!"
The crowd was in an uproar, and someone shouted: "Long live His Royal Highness Duan, the princess, stop coaxing us."
With a bang, Yang Minzhi walked out with a cold face, and threw King Duan's body outside the hall: "Are you trustworthy now? You are slaves and handmaids in the palace, all because of King Duan's accession to the throne." The reward that was given to you later, now that he is dead, your rewards are all in vain, so hurry up and catch him!"
After all, it is a court lady living at the bottom, who dared to muster up the courage to follow Duan Wang to the palace. After seeing Duan Wang's body, this courage gradually dissipated, leaving only infinite fear. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets.

ps: Duan Wang is dead, I am a little worried that the storyline will be too rushed.
