"Farewell to the Queen Mother, Queen Mother——" Everyone shouted in unison.
After everything calmed down, he turned around and walked up to the astonished Fu Yanxuan, and said seriously: "Second brother, I know that you have been able to judge situations better than me since you were a child. Looking at the world, no one is more suitable for this position than you.
Already."
Fu Yanshuo twitched the corner of his mouth and said with a helpless smile: "I have been planning for so long, and it turns out that I was the one who was 'calculated'..."
In less than a quarter of an hour, the conversation in Qiankun Palace was spread in the palace. Everyone now knows that from now on, all matters in this court, big and small, will be handled by the unscrupulous Second Prince Fu Yanshuo.
Although the decision was to temporarily manage the affairs of the court, the succession to the throne was only a certainty.
So the people who used to sneer at him along the way began to greet him with smiles and flattery. But they would inevitably whisper in private, why would the fourth prince give up this easy-to-obtain power and be willing to return to the barren Mobei?
Seeing the Queen Mother coming out of Qiankun Palace, the people in the palace couldn't help but tense up and lower their heads to avoid her.
"By the way," the Queen Mother stopped again on the way back to Xiangfu Palace, turned around and said sullenly to Yu Ling, "remember to tell Tong Zhuo when you turn around, and be sure to ask the imperial guards to keep an eye on Concubine Yun.
She is not allowed to go anywhere for a while! Since his father and brother want to dominate the world, let’s take this opportunity to let them understand what it means to be a successful king or a defeated bandit.”
Yu Ling nodded quickly and responded. The people who were serving around her lowered their heads and did not dare to make a sound. They showed fear and sincerity.
"Like a mother, there must be a son. The bitch embryo brought in the mother's womb should have known earlier that it was just an immature wolf. It was better to...forget it...save the trouble..." The Queen Mother's words followed the cold tone.
The cold wind dissipated all at once, but faintly reached Tong Zhuo's ears.
Ma Lin on the side looked thoughtfully at the people around him, while Tong Zhuo looked up at the pure white sky, his expression unchanged at all. They both knew that this day would come, but they didn't expect it to be so soon.
The faces of the servants in the fourth prince's house were all beaming with joy, because they had been waiting day and night to finally find out that their princess was pregnant. Only Baitao thought about it and was extremely worried.
"It's the prince who's back..." Seeing the figure at the door of the courtyard, Baitao's dull eyes suddenly lit up, she raised a smile and turned around and said, "Princess, it's the prince who's back."
Chu Miaoer stood up with her hand in her hand and looked towards the door with a smile on her face.
"I just heard someone say that you eat less than usual, don't you have a bad appetite?" Fu Yunchi walked quickly towards her, held her warm hand and walked into the house. As he walked, he asked with concern, "Is there anything?
Uncomfortable place?”
"My stomach is still full after drinking two bowls of hot soup. What's missing?" Chu Miao'er smiled and shook her head, sat down with him, and asked, "How did you go to the palace to explain today? I want to
, the second brother probably doesn’t want to.”
Fu Yunqi paused slightly as he prepared to sit down, a little surprised, but it only took a moment before he returned to normal.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Chu Miaoer continued to ask: "Then when will we set off?"
"I just received news that the Dongjue people are waiting for an opportunity in Mobei. It won't be tonight at the latest. Miaomiao, I have already made an explanation with my second brother..." Fu Yunchi looked at her and wanted to speak.
Then he said, "You..."
"I can't help you to regret it now. You know me well. If you don't want to take me with you, even if you send heavy troops to guard the door, I will still have a way to escape." Chu Miao'er took his hand over.
Putting it on his belly, he looked at him and said with a smile, "These days are different from the past, so it would be better to take me with you to save trouble."
In this way, Chu Miaoer and Fu Yunqi boarded the carriage heading north late that night. The people in Kyoto were doing everything as usual, and no one cared about what happened in the palace and why the fourth prince and the fourth princess went north to the desert overnight.
Bei, why did he become the second prince in power when he woke up?
They only know that whoever can keep them safe is a good emperor.
The sky was still dark the next day, and the glorious and majestic palace looked even more majestic in the silence. A harsh sound unexpectedly cut through the sky, followed by the clang of the collision of blades and armor.
He had a restless sleep last night. After hearing the sound, Al Yunduo, who had sharp ears, was suddenly awakened by the movement outside. He immediately got out of bed and called out hurriedly: "Qing Glaze——"
"My servant is here, Concubine Yun." Qing Glaze opened the door and trotted in, but her brows were furrowed.
Seeing her like this, Al Yunduo had a bad premonition in her heart. She turned around and rushed out of the window. She saw a group of people in black running towards her, and her heart suddenly skipped a beat.
"What happened?" she asked numbly. In fact, she didn't need to ask, she knew that these people must have been sent by her brother to take her out of the palace, but it was too blatant? It was so rash that they would be dead guards in the palace.
Of?
Qing Glaze lowered her head, with a look of worry and fear in her eyes. She walked carefully to Al Yunduo and said, "Go back to your Majesty, I just heard that... the Dongjue people sneaked into the palace under the cover of night, and they were in Qiankun
There was a fight outside the palace, and now all the imperial guards rushed over, fearing that they were going towards the emperor. This happened just after the empress's father and brother left. This slave... I was just worried that this would happen.
This will bring trouble to your Majesty..."
She kept her head lowered, so naturally she didn't see the man in black already standing under the shadow of the tree outside the window, looking at Al Yunduo from a distance. Her words were still worried about Al Yunduo's situation.
Al Yunduo sighed silently in her heart. If this girl could follow her, the debt in her heart would be less. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but said again: "The matter is a foregone conclusion, Qingglai, you can come with me.
.”
"Your Majesty is leaving?" Hearing this, Qingglai suddenly raised her head and looked at Al Yunduo in disbelief, but it seemed that she understood it in just a moment, shaking her head with tears in her eyes, "I can't leave, my slave... my slave... Tong
Chief, empress! Chief Tong is here!" Qing Glaze pointed to the window in panic, covered her mouth and shouted.
Tong Zhuo Al Yunduo turned around and threw herself on the window sill, looking at two familiar figures standing opposite each other, one holding a long sword and the other holding a short knife, in a desperate posture. She couldn't help but cling to the window coffin with both hands, feeling complicated emotions.
Well into my heart again.
Most of the Imperial Guards had been deliberately gathered in the Qiankun Palace by the Dongjue people. Now everyone in the harem was in danger. Except for the Queen and the Queen Mother's bedroom, no one cared about the other concubines' palaces. As if they were in a hurry, Tong Zhuo was also around.
I only took two or three people with me.
The Dongjue people are all brave and good at fighting, which is naturally different from the people in the palace who have always been pampered and pampered. In addition to their physical agility, there is really no advantage in such a face-to-face confrontation.
"This is a plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain. Go and call for support!" They were outnumbered and forced to retreat. Seeing that the people around him were injured, Tong Zhuo shouted quickly, "Go!"
When the men in black saw that he was looking for reinforcements and wanted to fight quickly, they picked up their daggers and swarmed forward. This situation must be very unfavorable for Tong Zhuo.
"Stop!" Al Yunduo shouted, his voice beginning to tremble uncontrollably.
"Your Majesty—" Qing Glaze called out sharply, lifted up her skirt, and followed the flying figure out of the room.
Never, never... Al Yunduo thought as he ran.
"Chief Tong!" A shrill voice sounded in his ears, and Al Yunduo only paused slightly before running away again.
Seeing the particularly eye-catching blood stain on Tong Zhuo's neck, her heart suddenly skipped a beat and she hurriedly blurted out: "Dabalagan, I told you to stop!"
Seeing that he was not moved at all, Al Yunduo trotted all the way to the two of them, and directly pinched the short knife he held against Tong Zhuo's neck with his hand. His hand was bleeding, but Dabaragan remained motionless.
"Princess Yunduo." He lowered his head slightly to show respect, looked at Al Yunduo calmly, and said, "Little Khan asked me to take you back. Khan and the others have already..."
"Let go!" Al Yunduo couldn't hear anything he said. He just raised his head and glared at him fiercely: "This princess asked you to let go. Are you deaf?! Or do you want to take my body to see the little one?"
Khan?"
Obviously Dabaragan didn't expect that she would care so much about a wealthy man. He opened his mouth and was at a loss. Half of the arrogance around him had dissipated.
Dabaragan is the tallest warrior in their Eastern tribe, and Tong Zhuo looks very petite in front of his chest. But Al Yunduo knows that with Tong Zhuo's skill, he is far from being able to control him, so he deliberately took this opportunity to let him control him.
Escape yourself.
"If you let me go, you will never get out alive." Tong Zhuo, who had been silent until now, said in a deep voice, "The Imperial Guard will be here soon. It's too late..."
Dabaragan and Al Yunduo looked at him at the same time and understood the meaning of his words.
"No! It can't be..." Al Yunduo insisted on holding the short knife, tears falling like pearls, with unprecedented desolation in his eyes, and pleading, "Tong Zhuo, come with me,
How about we go together?"
Dabaragan opened his mouth in surprise, as if it was difficult to accept this huge reversal, and the knife in his hand suddenly felt hot to the touch.
At this time, you could vaguely hear the sound of rustling footsteps coming from the distance, rushing towards this direction. Seeing the stalemate, Qing Glaze on the side quickly ran over and grabbed a handful from the stunned Dongjue people.
He knelt down on the ground with a splash of his short knife, put the knife on his neck tremblingly, and cried: "Empress! Please leave quickly! Dongjue has rebelled. If you stay in the palace, you will definitely not survive. I am born to be a golden slave."
People can only die in Dajin..." She smiled brightly, "But I don't regret following you."
To everyone's surprise, Qing Glaze just closed her eyes gently and ended her life peacefully. Blood spurted out, and in an instant, a strange pool of blood formed on the ground beneath her.
"No, Qingglai! -" Al Yunduo screamed in horror, and was about to move forward, but his hand was tightly held by someone, and his whole body was stretched to the extreme.
It was Tong Zhuo. After Tong Zhuo stared at her for a moment, he raised his head and said word by word to Dabbaragan: "If you don't leave, it will be too late."
After hearing Tong Zhuo's words, Al Yunduo turned around and grabbed his forearm, biting his lip and shaking his head wildly.
Qing Glaze, who was still alive just now, slowly fell to the ground in front of her eyes. He only twitched a few times and then stopped moving. Al Yunduo was heartbroken at this moment. She had no time to sort out her mood. She could not lose it anymore.
Tong Zhuo.
"Let's go. If there is another chance in the future..." Tong Zhuo choked up as he stared into her eyes and said nothing more. Because they both knew that this separation would last forever and there would be no chance again.
"Chief Tong!" Someone hurried this way with the imperial guards, "Al Yunduo collaborated with the enemy and treason, everyone will get the loot! Catch them all and leave them to the second prince to decide!"
Tong Zhuo heard Ma Lin's voice, pushed Al Yunduo away with all his strength, and shouted in a deep voice: "Hurry up!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he stabbed Dabaragan with his backhand. Dabaragan, who was still in a daze, subconsciously raised the dagger to defend himself. The dagger in his hand stabbed into his chest without missing a beat, and he kicked him away with his kick.
, happened to fall at the feet of Marin who was coming.
Dabaragan exerted all his strength without any reservation. The short knife had been deeply engraved into Tong Zhuo's chest. Only the handle was visible but the blade was not visible. Tong Zhuo groaned and spit out a large mouthful of blood. His vision began to blur, but he was still
He looked at Al Yunduo with wide eyes.
"Chief Tong!——" Marin knelt down and followed his line of sight. His eyes seemed to be spitting out fire.
Al Yunduo was so shocked that he lost his voice. Dabalagan saw that the situation was not good, and if he didn't relent, he directly knocked Al Yunduo unconscious, put it on his shoulders, turned around and jumped to the roof.
Fortunately, the Second Khan revealed the secret passage he left in the palace in advance, otherwise they would all die here tonight.
"Master...Master, hold on! I'll take you to the imperial doctor right away...Why are you still standing there, why don't you go after him!"
Farewell, Al Yunduo. Tong Zhuo slowly closed his eyes.
