Shangguan Put s heart skipped a beat. He called out twice more, but no one came in. Please visit ƒ𝐫𝗲𝒆𝑤𝚎𝐛𝙣𝐨𝙫𝙚𝚕. 𝒄o𝓂

The surroundings fell into a dead silence.

Prime Minister Liu and the officials of Lord Jing’s faction felt their hearts skip a beat.

“Hubby?” Shen Yijia reminded him softly.

Song Jingchen’s gaze lingered on Shangguan Heng and Shangguan Yu for a long time before he waved his hand.

The frightened emperor seemed to have received an order. He suddenly grabbed Shangguan Pu’s wrist and quickly retreated.

At the same time, Shen Yijia kicked General Xiao in.

“I’ll give you a chance to make a contribution. Don’t thank me too much.” she thought.

General Xiao was shocked and cursed in his heart. He quickly helped the emperor capture Shangguan Pu.

The change happened too quickly. Although everyone was still a little stunned, they knew one thing in their hearts, and that was that the emperor inside was fake.

Did the real emperor hide in the dark and watch everything that happened here?

When the smarter generals thought of this, they also swarmed forward like a swarm of bees. It was not easy to make a contribution when they were not fighting.

Everyone wanted to catch this pie that had fallen from the sky, but at this moment, a few extraordinary secret guards suddenly appeared beside Shangguan Pu.

As soon as the secret guards appeared, the scene became chaotic.

Fortunately, when General Xiao and Shangguan Pu started fighting, Empress Dowager Wei had already retreated out of the courtyard with everyone.

Shangguan Pu glanced coldly at Song Jingchen, who was standing at the front of the crowd. He said indignantly, “Let’s go.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a few secret guards protected him and retreated to the window. One of them took out a circular object and threw it to the ground. The entire room was instantly filled with smoke.

When the smoke dissipated, Shangguan Pu and the secret guards were nowhere to be seen.

“Hubby, he escaped.” Shen Yijia puffed up her cheeks. If not for Song Jingchen holding onto her, she would have rushed towards him long ago.

Song Jingchen squeezed her fingers. “It’s fine. Someone will send him back.”

Sensing something, he looked up and happened to meet Shangguan Yu’s gaze.

Shangguan Yu smiled and walked forward. “You’re still the same. You haven’t changed at all.”

“Is that so?” Song Jingchen smiled too. “What about you? Do I still know you?”

Shen Yijia was confused by the two of them. Just as she was about to say something, a large number of torches suddenly appeared outside the courtyard, instantly illuminating the area.

Only then did everyone realize that the guards guarding the courtyard had all fallen to the ground.

It was no wonder that they didn’t react even after Lord Jing shouted for a long time.

However, these people were clearly still standing there when they walked into the courtyard. What had happened in less than ten minutes?

In a secluded place, MO Yuan clapped her hands expressionlessly and turned to meet One Dot and the others.

After the matter was over, they left, hiding their achievements.

A group of people with torches walked in. Behind them were Prime Minister Liu and a dozen officials.

The ministers were stunned. When did Prime Minister Liu and the others slip away?

Shen Yijia was also stunned. Wasn’t Captain Lin walking in front of the team?

Oh, the one walking beside Captain Lin was the chatterbox.

At a glance, this group of people were her former “colleagues”!

Captain Little Lin glanced at everyone and said loudly, “His Majesty has ordered us to return to the palace immediately.”

Something big happened in the capital in October. To be precise, from the moment the emperor was attacked, there had been a lot of things happening in the capital.

First, the old prince tried to assassinate the emperor, and Lord Jing supervised the country. Then, it was revealed from the Fragrant Teahouse that the old prince had been abducting girls from all over the country for years. Right on the heels of that, the empress dowager, who had not returned to the capital for more than twenty years, suddenly returned to the capital.

The commoners looked forward to the news day and night. Just as they were about to write a blood letter for the old prince to be sentenced to death, the imperial edict was really issued. Along with the imperial edict was the empress dowager’s decree to pray for the emperor in the Hidden Spirit Temple.

Rumors had even spread throughout the commoners that the emperor was critically ill and wanted to pass down the throne to Lord Jing.

When everyone thought that this was a foregone conclusion, the old prince was kidnapped from the execution ground in front of everyone. The next day, there was even news that Lord Jing had imprisoned the emperor and intended to kill his father to usurp the throne.

That was not all. Lord Jing was the one who assassinated the Emperor and kidnapped girls. The old prince was just covering up for him and conspiring with him.

Since dawn, the soldiers had been traveling through the streets and alleys to catch Lord Jing’s accomplices.

All the officials of Lord Jing’s faction were captured and imprisoned, including Prime Minister Liu’s residence, Earl Rong’s residence, and the Yuan Family.

Imperial Concubine Liu was banished to the cold palace, and even Lord Shun was temporarily locked in his residence..
