Chapter 565

In the palace, Zhan Tingfeng saw the letter in his hand and became furious. There were only four simple words on the note, indicating that the assassination failed.

"A bunch of trash!" Zhan Tingfeng threw the tea cup in his hand, "So many dead soldiers can't kill so few people."

Zhan Tingfeng was really angry. As long as Zhan Beixiao didn't die, his throne would become unstable.

"Come here!" As soon as Zhan Tingfeng shouted, someone rushed in.

Zhan Tingfeng looked at the group of people in front of him in confusion. He had just spoken, why did these people rush in?

"General Nie, what do you mean?" Zhan Tingfeng looked at Nie Kangan who was standing there and said in a bad tone.

Nie Kang'an bowed his hands to Zhan Tingfeng and took out a bright yellow imperial edict from his arms, "Your Highness, this is your Majesty's imperial edict."

Zhan Tingfeng's expression changed slightly, "General Nie, we are just grasshoppers on the same rope now. Don't forget the agreement between us."

"Your Highness is overly worried. Your Highness and I have never been in the same boat." Nie Kang'an smiled slightly and said, "Your Highness, do you want to hear what this imperial edict says?"

"How did you and Zhan Beixiao get together?" Zhan Tingfeng looked at Nie Kang'an coldly. What still doesn't he understand now?

"The Seventh Prince knows things well. He discussed the countermeasures with his ministers before leaving the capital." Nie Kang'an smiled and looked at Zhan Tingfeng.

Zhan Tingfeng turned pale and sneered, "Seventh brother is really good at planning."

"But you don't really think that I only have your team, do you?" Zhan Tingfeng looked at Nie Kang'an and sneered, "Here comes someone!"

A wave of troops poured in from outside the study and surrounded the two people who were facing each other. "Nie Kang'an, the guilty general, colluded with the rebels to fight against Bei Xiao. Let me capture him!"

However, the guards around him refused to move. The leading general bowed his hands towards Nie Kang'an, "What are your orders, general?"

"Nie Kang'an!" Zhan Tingfeng shouted angrily, "What on earth have you done!"

Nie Kang'an smiled softly, "We are just following the orders of the Seventh Prince to change all the guards in the palace when you first entered the palace."

Zhan Tingfeng stood there, looking at the guards standing around him, and suddenly laughed, "You guys are really good at calculating!"

"Prince Zhan Tingfeng intends to rebel, kill loyal ministers, abolish the title of the prince, and throw him into prison to await his fate!" Nie Kang'an glanced at Zhan Tingfeng and said solemnly to the guards.

The surrounding guards immediately stepped forward and directly escorted Zhan Tingfeng down.

Nie Kang'an watched Zhan Tingfeng being taken away and entered the queen's palace with the imperial edict.

"We have met the Queen." Nie Kang'an saluted the Queen.

The queen personally stepped forward to help Nie Kang'an up and said, "General Nie, get up quickly."

Nie Kang'an smiled slightly and said, "The deposed prince has been imprisoned. Please ask the queen to come forward to maintain the overall situation."

The queen had already changed into a gorgeous dress. After hearing Nie Kangan's words, she nodded, "Okay."

The queen personally read out Emperor Xuantong's imperial edict, and the whole court was in an uproar.

"Come with me to see the prince." After leaving the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the queen went to the Tianlao in person.

There was only a weak light in the dark dungeon, and Zhan Tingfeng was dressed in prison clothes, but there was no trace of his original nobility.

"The Queen has arrived!" came the eunuch's shrill voice.

Zhan Tingfeng raised his eyes slightly and sneered.

The queen followed the guards and came to the prince's cell.

When Zhan Tingfeng saw the queen, he rushed forward, grabbed the long knife from the waist of the accompanying guard, and was about to kill himself.

Nie Kang'an rushed forward with quick eyes and hands, kicked Zhan Tingfeng away, and the knife immediately fell to the ground.

"Keep an eye on him. Your Majesty will personally interrogate the deposed prince when he comes back." Nie Kang'an glanced at the surrounding guards displeased.

"Yes." The guard immediately lowered his head.

The words "deposed prince" deeply hurt Zhan Tingfeng, who laughed like crazy.

"Deposed prince?" Zhan Tingfeng said with a smile, "When did I ever look like a prince?"

Zhan Tingfeng suddenly stood up and looked at the cell, his eyes unfocused, "He has always only had Zhan Beixiao in his eyes. How can he still have a son like me?"

Nie Kangan's expression remained unchanged and he ordered the guards around him, "Take good care of me."

The queen stood there blankly, looking at the somewhat crazy Zhan Tingfeng, and felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.

Although the prince is her biological son, such a thing as rebellion cannot be done easily.

"Prince, don't make the same mistake again and again." The queen looked at Zhan Tingfeng and said softly, "You are His Majesty's biological son, and His Majesty will definitely show mercy."

"Ha." Zhan Tingfeng sneered, "In his eyes, he will always have only one son, Zhan Beixiao!"

The Queen looked at Zhan Tingfeng and said comfortingly, "No, you and His Majesty are of the same flesh and blood. As long as you admit your mistake and are sincere, His Majesty will definitely be merciful."

"He won't!" Zhan Tingfeng suddenly said loudly. Then Zhan Tingfeng stood up, pointed at the queen in gorgeous clothes and said, "What are you pretending to be here? I don't need your falsehood!"

The queen looked a little ugly. Looking at Zhan Tingfeng with disheveled hair, she sighed silently in her heart.

"You have also cooperated with Nie Kang'an a long time ago, right?"

The queen glanced at Zhan Tingfeng in embarrassment. She indeed knew these plans.

"Your Majesty, the deposed prince is emotionally unstable, you should please go back first." Nie Kang'an glanced at Zhan Tingfeng and saluted the queen.

The queen glanced at Zhan Tingfeng with complicated eyes and nodded, "Okay."

When Zhan Beixiao went to the border, only Feng Qinghua and Emperor Xuantong were left together in Huaibei.

"Your Majesty, this is information from the capital." Feng Qinghua handed over the secret report in her hand.

Emperor Xuantong received the secret report with trembling hands.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, everything has been resolved." Feng Qinghua thought that Emperor Xuantong was worried about the palace, so she comforted him.

Emperor Xuantong did not speak, and opened the secret report tremblingly.

"Alas." Emperor Xuantong sighed and glanced at the familiar face in front of him, "I have treated the prince badly over the years."

Feng Qinghua lowered her head and said nothing. It was too late to say anything now. It was an indisputable fact that Zhan Tingfeng raised his troops to rebel.

"Thanks to Lao Qi this time." Emperor Xuantong's voice was a little vicissitudes of life, "Do you know Lao Qi's plan this time?"

Feng Qinghua shook her head and said, "I don't know, but at that time the girl was praying at Hanshan Temple."

Feng Qinghua regretted it as soon as she finished saying this. She completely forgot that she had contracted smallpox at Hanshan Temple. If the emperor asked, how should she explain?
