Chapter 1653
Yu Hao left a team of men to continue digging Pei Yu. They brought Tao Zi and Han Mei, who were still unconscious, and rushed back to the imperial capital.
King Ye's ribs were first wrapped up and fixed by Lingxuan with cloth strips.
Lingxuan also gave him a bottle of ape grass juice.
The King of Ye didn't dare to rest. He supported his cruel body and immediately asked Yu Hao to find someone to send a letter to his deputy general first, asking him to lead his troops to the city gate to wait for protection.
Yu Hao also sent a letter to Prince Cheng at the same time, allowing his people to take King Kang to prison.
If Princess Kang dares to take Prince Kang out of the clan’s mansion, she will kill Prince Kang first.
In this way, Princess Kang became a leader of Wuming and would not be so easy to seize the dragon throne.
Yu Hao also sent someone to send a letter to Lu Xiang to prepare for the response.
Zhu Lan was not idle either. While taking care of King Ye, she was giving advice for Yu Hao.
"When you enter the city, it will definitely cause panic. Send people to mingle in the crowd and tell everyone that the empress is injured, which cannot be concealed!"
"But I want to tell everyone that the Empress is not seriously injured and will show up after two days of rest!"
"The Empress is a miracle doctor, she will definitely be able to cure herself! Let everyone have confidence in the Empress!"
Zhu Lan is to stabilize the people's hearts and set a trap for King Kang.
If King Kang dares to take the opportunity to force the palace, these people will definitely sympathize with Ling Yu and despise King Kang to take advantage of others' danger.
What Zhu Lan, Yu Hao, and even Prince Cheng did not expect was that King Kang did not move, but Concubine Shao was moved.
However, when Concubine Shao arrived at the gate of the palace, she was blocked by the Imperial Guard. After receiving Han Yu's warning, Li Zhen immediately arranged a group of people to accompany Yu Hao to save people.
All the remaining people were on level one alert, the palace gate was closed, and the archers were ambushed on the palace gate tower.
Concubine Shao brought King Kang's team, but was blocked at the door.
"Bold, what does it mean to close the palace gate when you Concubine Shao returns to the palace?
King Kang's deputy general Yan Feng rushed out of the palace gate and roared at the city tower.
Li Zhen appeared on the city gate in his shiny armor of the Imperial Guard, smiled sarcastically at Yan Feng's roar and said coldly.
"With Concubine Shao's return to the palace, is there an imperial edict from the emperor?"
Concubine Shao was punished by Xiao Lintian to go to the Taimiao to recite scriptures and pray for the Empress Dowager. She was not allowed to return to the imperial capital without following the imperial edict.
Concubine Shao came back privately, which can be regarded as a disobedience to the order.
Concubine Shao naturally had no imperial edict, but she still replied toughly.
"I heard that the emperor was in charge of the army and was worried that the queen would not be able to handle state affairs alone, so I came back to help!"
"Li Zhen, open the door for this palace immediately, otherwise you will have ulterior motives and want to use the emperor's absence to usurp the throne."
When Li Zhen heard the charge of Concubine Shao's care for him, he looked down upon him and smiled coldly: "Concubine Shao, you don't have to label this general! This general only obeys the imperial edict and opens the door when he sees the imperial edict. He will not open the door without seeing the imperial edict!"
"If you dare to come in without authorization, you will be considered as a rebellion. Don't blame the sword for being blind!"
With Li Zhen waved his hand, the archers took a few steps forward and aimed the crossbow at the city gate below.
Concubine Shao was furious, but she was helpless.
King Kang was imprisoned in the clan mansion, and his team was disbanded by Xiao Lintian and joined the other teams.
Concubine Shao knew that Zhao Ruirui had led Ling Yu out today before she dared to bring troops.
She originally wanted to call a few generals from the Kang Wang Party to enter the palace and take the opportunity to seize Xiao Lintian's territory.
But these generals sleekly refused.
It’s not that they are not moved, but that they are not justified in this way.
In order to rob two million military pay, King Kang killed thousands of soldiers, and the people of the imperial capital knew about this.
This incident also spread to the military camp. The soldiers under their command empathized with the unjustly killed soldiers and hated King Kang to the core.
Now I am leading troops to help King Kang seize the throne. Isn’t this helping the evil?
