"Your Highness, Emperor Ji, we will arrive at the Imperial City in half a day." Ling Huaizhi felt sad in his heart, and looked at Mei Yichi with eyes full of naked love.
Mei Yichi was noncommittal. He sensed that the situation in the direction of the imperial city was not so optimistic.
The noble prince elegantly rolled up his sleeves and poured him a glass of wine. "I wish your highness a magnificent splendid wedding. May you be the most honored one."
This could be a blessing to the Emperor Ji, or it could be a blessing to the "Emperor". He felt that his heart was bleeding, and he wanted to personally send the one he loved to another person's bed.
Mei Yichi took a sip of her wine and gave him a meaningful look, "I'm tired. Let's go back to the house and take a rest."
There were not many people at the inn, but as he walked up the stairs, he almost attracted either hidden or direct sight.
"Hurry up, it's almost over in the Imperial City, we just have to wait for the coffin to be sealed." One person said in a hushed voice.
Ling Huaizhi took a sip of wine and said, "Wait a moment longer for the medicine to take effect."
In the room upstairs, Mei Yichi listened to all their words, and a smile spread out from the corner of his mouth, laughing at the complicated thoughts of mortals, at the so-called feelings, and at himself for truly "experienced" the journey.
The experience he gained along the way was of no use to him. It could neither allow him to break through the shackles of his realm nor generate valuable insights.
That's all, at this point, the agreement with Yi Shang has been completed.
It is inconvenient for him to participate in the affairs of the imperial city.
"Double shift,"
A bird flew from a distance and landed on the window coffin. It was shaped like a chicken with two eyes in each eye. It chirped towards the plum pond, as clear as a phoenix.
This is a famous spiritual bird, calling for Chongming.
Mei Yichi looked at it as if there was no one around and shook off its feathers, leaving only its flesh. He said helplessly, "I'm going back. You can stay a little longer until the Yin Dynasty dies or the prince is in danger."
Save him once."
Chongming bird mouth said, "The imperial city is too chaotic, how can I find him."
Mei Yichi was prepared, and flicked out a wisp of blood energy with his finger, "He is Yi Shang's nephew, and he shares the same blood with her. Just follow him."
After Mei Yichi finished explaining, he turned into light and left without a trace.
The Chongming bird patted two pieces of meat, lifted it into the air, and flew straight towards the imperial city.
"Your Highness Di Ji, it's time to hit the road." Ling Huaizhi pushed open the door with three or five strong men, and was immediately dumbfounded, "Where are the people!"
"The window is open, don't run away!"
Li Mao united with the commander of the garrison in the imperial city. The Taiwei and other former members of the Li family confirmed the prince's crime.
At this point, no one in the Yi family can inherit the throne.
The ministers' thoughts were all aroused.
"The grandfather of Marquis Donglin was the King of Northern Zhao and the grandson of Emperor Jingwen. Marquis Donglin can also be regarded as a descendant of the royal family. Moreover, he has a reputation as a virtuous man and is worthy of a great position."
"Hey, no, no, no. Yu Bogong is the great-great-great-grandson of Emperor Xiaojia. In terms of orthodoxy, no one can compare to him."
"No, I think..."
Li Hao snorted coldly, "You have forgotten Her Royal Highness the Emperor Ji!"
"This..." The ministers looked at each other.
Li Mao said righteously: "Her Royal Highness Di Ji is the eldest daughter of the late emperor. She is also a heroine who pacified the three states in the south and guarded the border. Isn't she worthy of a big responsibility?"
People from the Li family did not shy away from suspicion at this time, "We think Her Royal Highness the Emperor Ji is just right."
"If Her Royal Highness the Emperor Ji gives birth to a little prince, it is not impossible."
While controlling his speech, Li Hao took note of those who opposed and questioned him, feeling happy in his heart. When he married the "Queen" and gave her the throne in a few years, he would be an upright and upright emperor.
As for how to make Yi Chang obey, the person who killed her took control of her life and death, and he was afraid that she would resist.
Outskirts of the Imperial City
A huge boulder rolled down the slope, revealing a cave entrance.
Zhan Changfeng and others came out of the cave. She took a look at the environment, turned around and said: "Lingwu, you take the women and children to settle in another state. If the others want to leave, just divide the money and go."
A commander of the Imperial Guard said anxiously: "Your Highness, if you keep the green hills here, you won't be afraid of running out of firewood!"
"I'm afraid if I walk on the front foot, I will become a person who kills my relatives and betrays my ancestors. How can I go back?" What's more, except for the secret guards around her, she has no one she can trust. Even the secret guards only have seven people left in the end.
On the other hand, she didn't know how many people in the court were on Li Hao's side, and there was little hope of restoration.
"No need to say more. Anyone who wants to leave should leave immediately. By the time they catch up, it will be too late. Zero-three will divide the property."
The property brought out was not much, and each person was only given fifty taels.
Most of the maids and attendants received the money and left in a panic, or went to live in other states with the women and children in the palace.
The men of the Imperial Guard were so stubborn that they slapped away the distributed coins and knelt on the ground.
The young commander's eyes were red, "When I joined the army, I swore allegiance to His Majesty for the rest of my life. Even if I was shattered to pieces, I would not give up until I died. However, I didn't expect that it was my brothers and sisters who harbored evil intentions and were the first to cause trouble. I cannot escape the blame even if I don't understand people well. You have no face to see anyone!"
"Your Highness, please allow me to follow you and make meritorious deeds!"
Zhan Changfeng softened his expression and said, "Li Hao has been planning for a long time. Even my grandfather and Gu Gu were not prepared for the current changes, so how can I blame you."
This was really not a place where we could stay for a long time. Zhan Changfeng dismissed the people and asked Ling Wu to take the women and children away, then hid in the mountains with the remaining secret guards and imperial guards.
However, the news between her and the outside world has not been cut off. Zero-One and Zero-2, who have never been seen, are still in the imperial city.
These two people are independent from the secret guards and are responsible for industry management and intelligence.
Zhan Changfeng waited for a few days before news came from Liu Xu.
"Yu Zhenming, Bai Zhilin, Fang Qianyu...there are so many ministers who have contacts with him," she became more and more frightened as she looked at them. Li Hao was very good at setting up hidden traps.
Zhan Changfeng picked up the next letter. This was good news. Yi Chang was not in his hands.
If my aunt is not controlled by others, she will definitely go back to the south to start trouble.
But when she read the last sentence, her hand holding the letter shook almost invisibly.
The wife committed suicide in Yongxiu Palace. The fire did not go out for a long time.
Zhan Changfeng sat there for a long time and sighed quietly, "It's destiny."
"Ling San," she said with a cold look, "if you light a beacon, you would rather die than let the Yin Dynasty fall into the hands of thieves!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
A signal flare shot into the sky and exploded in the shape of a sword.
The shape of the sword looked like the Emperor's Sword.
The sword guard who was huddled under the star-catching platform raised his head, Gu Jing Wubo's eyes flickered, and he walked tremblingly up the hundred-foot ladder to the top.
The wind roared.
He took out a firecracker and held the flame to light a corner of the curtain.
I don’t know what the curtains and beams were made of, but they were so small that they burned like a prairie fire in the cold wind from high altitude, burning fiercely!
From a distance, it looks like a giant torch standing in the imperial city, blazing and burning.
The most bizarre thing is that the thick smoke rising into the sky is actually blood red!
Half a moment after it ignited, smoke also appeared three hundred miles away, and then eight hundred miles away. Eight hundred miles away...wolf smoke rose up from the land of China.
Blood smoke burns the sky, the royal family is in danger, summon the princes to kill the rebels!
This blood smoke that has not been ignited for eight hundred years has plunged the land of China into turmoil in an instant. The loyal or ambitious princes gathered their tents and camped out, pointing their swords at the imperial city!
But in that southern place, Yi Shang saw blood smoke in the distance, and in grief, she threw the wine jar. This was the smoke that would only be lit when the country is subjugated.
At the end of the 47th year of Chengming Dynasty, the coup crushed the New Year's firecrackers, and the Yin Dynasty began to fall apart.
