Lu Dingsheng looked at the guests who kept entering the palace to attend the wedding, and felt slightly nervous. He always felt that the wedding of King Chi would not be that simple.
As the commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army, Lu Dingsheng's duty is to protect the imperial city. The Imperial Guards under his command are the elite of Beili's elite, and their combat effectiveness is not inferior to that of the border troops.
In order for the wedding to be held smoothly, Red King Xiao Yu falsely conveyed the imperial edict and asked Lu Dingsheng to lead 10,000 imperial guards to guard the wedding site.
Lu Dingsheng has reached a tacit understanding with King Yong'an in private. If something goes wrong at the wedding, the 10,000 imperial guards will definitely turn their guns against Red King Xiao Yu.
The reason why he helped King Yong'an was not because his son had a close relationship with him, but because Emperor Mingde had given Lu Dingsheng a secret edict before he fainted, telling him that if there were any changes in the court, he should take charge of King Yong'an.
When Lu Dingsheng received the secret edict, he was almost certain that Xiao Chuhe (Xiao Se), King of Yong'an, would be the next emperor.
As the commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army, Lu Dingsheng could not favor any prince, but he must follow Emperor Mingde's will.
"What are you thinking about?" Next to Lu Dingsheng, a soldier wearing a Guards armor touched him.
"Madam, why are you here?" Lu Dingsheng couldn't help but said dumbly when he heard the familiar voice.
The soldier is disguised as Lu Dingsheng's wife Li Fanying.
"The more I thought about it when I stayed at home, the more something was wrong. I always felt that something big was going to happen today, so I ran over to take a look." Li Fanying said.
"Do you feel this way too?" Lu Dingsheng frowned.
"The storm is about to come, and all kinds of monsters and snakes have appeared at the Red King's wedding today." Li Fanying sighed: "I didn't expect that Prince Langya would also appear."
Xiao Se's plan was not hidden from Lu Dingsheng, and Lu Dingsheng and his wife had almost no secrets, so Li Fanying also knew that Xiao Lingchen, the crown prince of Langya, was lurking outside Tianqi City and would lead his army into the city as soon as the city gates opened.
The person responsible for opening the city gate was none other than Lu Dingsheng.
"The case of King Langya's rebellion back then was very implicated. Xiao Lingchen fled overseas for many years. If His Majesty had not been merciful, granted amnesty to the world, and restored his title, Xiao Lingchen might still be hiding overseas." Li Fanying lamented:
"Who would have thought that now he could lead his troops back to Tianqi with such arrogance."
An idea flashed in Lu Dingsheng's mind, and he felt that he had overlooked something, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
"Madam, you'd better go home and wait!" Lu Dingsheng said worriedly: "Now that Jun'er's whereabouts are unknown, you can't let anything happen to you again."
After Xiao Se returned to Tianqi, he secretly met Lu Dingsheng and Li Fanying for the first time and told the truth about Wang Gang's disappearance.
The couple learned that their son had been kidnapped by a certain master, and were extremely worried, but they didn't know how to find their son.
"I won't go back." Li Fanying said stubbornly: "You and I have been husband and wife for decades, so we should share the same difficulties. Don't forget, if we really fight, your martial arts will not be as good as mine."
When Lu Dingsheng heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, but he also saw that his wife cared about him, and finally let her stay.
Soon, the couple saw Red King Xiao Yu picking up the bride in high spirits. When he passed by Lu Dingsheng, he even said hello.
"Commander Lu, thank you for your hard work. I will send someone to bring you a glass of wedding wine later. I must give you a compliment."
Lu Dingsheng's face straightened and he said: "You are not allowed to drink alcohol while on duty. The Red King's kindness will be appreciated at the end of the day."
Red King Xiao Yupi smiled and said: "In that case, after the wedding, I will invite Commander Lu to a private banquet."
After saying that, Xiao Yu rode his horse and wanted to enter the palace, but was stopped by Lu Dingsheng.
"His Royal Highness the Red King, according to the rules, you cannot enter the palace on horseback."
Red King Xiao Yu was stunned, slapped his forehead, and said: "I was negligent. Thank you Commander Lu for reminding me."
Xiao Yu slapped the horse's back, turned over and dismounted, and was about to enter the palace in a sedan chair, but Lu Dingsheng stopped him again.
"In the palace, except for His Majesty, everyone must enter the palace on foot. Although today is a happy day for His Royal Highness, the Red King, you cannot break the rules, otherwise you will be impeached by the censor."
The displeasure on Xiao Yu's face flashed away, but he still endured it.
"The bride is in the carriage, do you want to get down too?" Xiao Yu said gloomily.
"The maid in the palace will take good care of Princess Chi, please don't worry, Your Majesty."
A group of nuns from the palace were waiting nearby and gave a slight salute to the Red King.
Xiao Yu's mouth twitched, but he still endured it.
"Enter the palace." Xiao Yu waved his sleeves and turned towards the Wuying Hall of the imperial palace, where the wedding will be held.
Lu Dingsheng winked at Mammy, and Ye Ruoyi was taken to a room in the side hall.
Xiao Se is waiting in the palace.
"King Yong'an, why are you here?" Ye Ruoyi was very surprised when she saw Xiao Se.
Xiao Se smiled slightly and called a woman in red.
"This girl Tiannu Rui will take your place at the wedding later."
Ye Ruoyi frowned and said, "This seems not to be part of the plan?"
Xiao Se smiled and said: "This is what Lei Wujie and I have agreed upon. He really doesn't want you to pay homage to the Red King. It just so happens that Miss Tiannurrui is good at disguise and can take your place."
"What if the Red King finds out?" Ye Ruoyi said worriedly.
"Just discover it if you find it." Xiao Se said in a deep voice: "I am ready to fight to the death, but I must first ensure your safety."
"King Yong'an, you shouldn't do this." Ye Ruoyi criticized Xiao Se directly.
Xiao Se explained: "Actually, you have more important things to do."
Ye Ruoyi was stunned and said in confusion: "Did the plan have an accident?"
Xiao Se said: "I need you to transfer Huaziying over as the daughter of General Ye."
The Huaziying is the most elite unit in Beili. Although there are not many in number, only two thousand people, each one is a master who is as good as a hundred, and they directly obey the orders of Emperor Mingde. If the Huaziying can enter Tianqi, it will be able to
The power to influence the situation of the war.
"The Red King and his minions are all focused on the wedding. This is your best opportunity to mobilize your troops." Xiao Se gave Ye Ruoyi a token.
"Langya Token?" Ye Ruoyi looked at the token in surprise and said, "I didn't expect this token to be in the hands of the prince. I always thought it was in the hands of His Royal Highness."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Xiao Se nodded and said: "Uncle Wang gave me the Langya Order before his death. He said that the Langya Army had been broken into pieces and integrated into the Huazi Camp. You can take it with me
Langya Order can control this powerful army."
Ye Ruoyi knew that the matter was of great importance and took the Langya Order with both hands.
Xiao Se said seriously: "You lead Huaziying to meet Prince Langya first and wait for my signal to enter the city."
Ye Ruoyi asked strangely: "Has the prince already made contact with His Highness the Crown Prince?"
Xiao Se smiled mysteriously and said, "Actually, Xiao Lingchen and I met once before entering Tianqi. We have a tacit understanding with each other. When you see him, you know what to do."
Ye Ruoyi solemnly said: "Ruoyi will never disgrace his mission."
Xiao Se hesitated for a long time before he finally said something.
"Zouyi, don't worry about your father, I will definitely ensure his safety."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Ye Ruoyi didn't know at this time that her father Ye Xiaoying had betrayed Xiao Se.
"Go! Be careful on the road." Xiao Se warned, bidding farewell to Ye Ruoyi, and asked Tiannu Rui to disguise herself as Ye Ruoyi.
"Your Majesty, why don't you tell Miss Ye the true identity of General Ye?" Tiannu Rui couldn't help but ask Xiao Se after putting on her makeup.
It turns out that Xiao Se had known about Ye Xiaoying's plan for a long time.
"In the final analysis, General Ye just wants to seek justice for Uncle Langya. In fact, our goals are the same." Xiao Se sighed and said quietly.
After sighing, Xiao Se hurried to Wuying Hall to avoid arousing the suspicion of King Chi.
What he didn't expect was that when he arrived at Wuying Hall, Red King Xiao Yu immediately launched an attack.
"Come here, arrest Xiao Chuhe (Xiao Se)." Xiao Yu said with an evil smile.
"Bold Xiao Chuhe, you dare to send people into the palace to assassinate my father."
Xiao Se was startled and subconsciously thought that Li Hanyi and others who came to the palace to rescue him had an accident.
Eunuch Jinxuan led a group of people into the palace and forced three people out in front of all the civil and military officials.
Xiao Se took a closer look and saw that it was Li Hanyi, Lei Wujie and Tang Lian who were tied up.
The three of them were covered in blood, including the blood of their enemies and their own blood.
