When Su Liuyuan and Su Liuqian came to the palace gate tower, Huang Zhuangquan was sending people to bring a large amount of firewood, while Xie Weixing was frowning at the firewood.

"What should I do?" Concubine Qian looked down worriedly.

Su Liuyuan glanced briefly and said, "They won't burn it in."

Concubine Qian tilted her head in surprise and asked her, "Why?"

"They didn't do this to burn down the palace, they just wanted to disrupt the formation."

"Liu Yuan also knows formations?" Xie Weixing also heard her words and turned around and asked with a smile.

Su Liuyuan shook his head and said, "I don't understand, it's just that their purpose is too obvious."

When Xie Weixing heard this, he seemed to think of something and looked at the firewood over there.

"Wei Xing, is there any way to solve the current predicament?" The emperor looked at the scene below and asked worriedly.

"We are not sure of victory yet."

Xie Weixing was silent for a moment, then suddenly turned around and smiled leisurely at Su Liuyuan, and asked, "Liuyuan, do you still remember Article 22 of military strategy?"

Su Liuyuan was stunned for a moment, and then after thinking about it for a while, he suddenly realized and understood his intention, so he smiled and nodded and said: "Soldiers are deceitful!"

The tacit understanding between the two surprised Le He who was on the side. He secretly took a look at Su Liuyuan. At the flower viewing party just now, I saw that she is not as charming and affectionate as her second sister, Concubine Qian, nor as handsome and lively as her third and fourth sisters. She is not as beautiful as Lu Chenxia, and she is not as stunning as Wang Mei. beauty of. Even when she doesn't speak, people often forget she exists. And as long as she stands up, it will be difficult for people to ignore her.

Concealing what he was thinking, Le He said, "But is there a way?"

"That's almost it." Xie Weixing made a gesture with his right hand, and the person giving orders in the distance shouted loudly, and the formation suddenly changed.

Outside the palace gate, Huang Zhuangquan ordered the firewood to be lit. The thick smoke was blown into the palace by the strong wind. Suddenly, smoke was floating everywhere, and there were no people or horses.

Standing on the palace gate tower, you can only see the faint red guards in the thick smoke. The expressions of several people gradually became nervous. Xie Weixing changed his gestures again, and the person who gave the order shouted again. Originally, those who gave orders used drums instead, but the time was short, and Xie Weixing only sent one person to deliver the order with words.

"Come in!" A proud shout came from outside the palace gate amid the thick smoke.

Huang Zhuangquan was about to rush in.

Xie Weixing turned his hand, and the formation changed again. The few people standing beside him were silent, and their ears were filled with the sound of killing in the field.

I don’t know how long it took, but the thick smoke gradually dispersed with the wind, revealing the open space under the palace gate. But they saw flesh and blood flying everywhere on the ground, broken limbs and remains, and bright red blood soaking into the soil, turning the loess into red soil...

Su Liuyuan stiffened her body, feeling nauseated, and was about to vomit, when a clear voice came.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness!" It was Su Huanqing who was visiting the palace at night.

The emperor took a deep look at the scene downstairs, nodded slightly and asked, "How is the situation in the palace?"

Su Huanqing also saw the scene downstairs at this time, and her tense heartstrings relaxed. When she heard the emperor's words, she became worried again: "The prince hijacked the family members of officials of third rank and above, and... also robbed Lord Xu. Force Mr. Xu to prepare a summons."

"Humph, what a sin!" The emperor's eyes flashed with a trace of cruelty, and then he ordered to Gower downstairs, "Gower, please count the number of people."

Xie Weixing stopped the emperor's approach and looked at Le He.

Only then did Le He speak: "Father, I have long known what the emperor did, so I have already ordered Major General Zhen to secretly replace some of the emperor's subordinates."

Le He didn't explain it to the emperor just now because he was worried that the emperor would alienate Le He. Since ancient times, emperors have never tolerated people who concealed their secret manipulations, and they have never lived a peaceful life. It's just that the chess has reached this point, and the final trump card can be released.

To their surprise, the emperor was not unhappy. Instead, he laughed happily and said, "He'er, you are indeed her son!"

Su Liuyuan had been curious about this "her". Since the emperor loved the third prince's mother and concubine so much, why didn't he protect her in the end? What happened to their previous generation

With Wang Zhen's internal support arranged in the palace, everything became clear.

"Fifth sister, you go back first." Su Huanqing said to Su Liuyuan while standing on the avenue.

Su Liuyuan was stunned. She had no intention of following him, so she nodded and said, "Okay, brother, please be careful on the road."

"Brother, Liuyuan should follow us, I'm afraid the Su Mansion is not safe now..." Concubine Qian glanced at Su Liuyuan and said.

After Su Huanqing heard this, she frowned slightly and said after thinking for a moment: "Fifth sister, get on your horse!"

Su Liuyuan stared at the horse that was taller than him and shook his head quickly: "I can't ride a horse."

The words fell into the ears of Xie Weixing, who was standing aside, and he smiled dumbly: "Has Liu Yuan never learned to ride a horse?"

"I haven't been in good health since I was a child, so I rarely do outdoor sports." Su Liuyuan explained without changing her expression.

"Outdoor sports?" Xie Weixing's eyes flashed slightly, "Liu Yuan's choice of words is really interesting."

At this time, the large army had already moved far away. Xie Weixing watched Su Liuyuan being carried onto the horse by Su Huanqing. He narrowed his eyes, lowered his face, and suddenly hit the horse and galloped away.

Su Liuyuan, who was climbing on the horse, was confused by Xie Weixing's sudden departure, but Concubine Qian on the side took all of this into consideration.

*****

The majestic palace of Nan Qi is hidden under the night sky. The long white marble steps add to the depth of the palace, like a lion hiding in the darkness, preparing to catch its prey.

From the south main gate of the palace to the gate of Jinluan Hall, there are mighty soldiers all the way. If the prince sees these soldiers not kneeling or grabbing the emperor when they see him, he will definitely be shocked.

In the Jinluan Palace, the queen grabbed Xu Fanling's arm with one hand and glared at Xu Wu fiercely: "Master Xu, don't forget, you still have a daughter in my hands! Besides, do you think anyone else dares to take the throne today? Come on?"

Xu Wu was restrained by two guards and knelt on the ground. He raised his head with difficulty and saw his daughter with her eyes open and a frightened face, looking at him expectantly. His heart ached and he said with a trembling voice: "Ling'er, Do you blame Daddy for failing to protect you?"

"Not afraid... Daddy, Ling'er is not afraid!" Xu Fanling's whole body was trembling with fear. Hearing his father's words, he bit his lip tightly and determined not to cry.

Xu Wu smiled happily, narrowed his eyes and said to the Queen: "Is the Queen still obsessed with what happened twenty years ago?"

It's okay that Li Ru didn't listen to this. When he heard this, he threw Xu Fanling away from his hand and said sternly: "If he wasn't ruthless, how could I have come to this point?"

Xu Wu burst out laughing: "Queen... you think you know the emperor very well, but you just forget that besides being the emperor, he is also a man! Twenty years ago, you should never have said anything to Zhen The concubine is poisoned! You made one mistake after another, and until now, do you still think it’s the emperor’s ruthlessness?”

"That's enough!" Li Ru shouted loudly, his breathing rising and falling, "Am I wrong? Haha, yes! I was wrong! My mistake was that I shouldn't have gone hunting with my father and brother in the first place! My mistake was that I shouldn't have fallen in love with that man at first sight ! My mistake was that I should not have asked my father and brother to help him win the throne! My mistake was that I should not have married him! My mistake was that I should not have kept hoping for him! What was I wrong? Haha... Xu Wu, ah Xu Wu, back then When you killed my brother, did you ever think that you would be killed by me today?"

"No!" Xu Fanling heard what the queen said. Although he didn't understand what they said about twenty years ago, he knew that the queen wanted his father to die. She crawled and hugged Li Ru's feet tightly, begging, "Don't kill my father. Fan Ling is willing to do anything for the queen... Please don't kill my father..."

"Ling'er! Don't beg her!" Xu Wu shouted loudly when he heard his daughter's begging.

"Get out!" Li Ru kicked him away and yelled, "Whoever I want to kill, it's not your turn to interrupt!"

Xu Fanling was kicked away by Li Ru and hit a column on the side. Blood immediately flowed out from his head.

"Queen! The person you want to kill is me, please let her go! Don't you want me to draw up an edict? Let her go, and I will draw up one!" When Xu Wu saw this, he stood up to save his daughter, but he had no choice but to do so. One arm was held tightly by the guards, unable to move.

Li Ru laughed loudly and walked towards Xu Wu step by step.

She looks extremely good and takes good care of herself. Although she is nearly forty years old, there is not a single wrinkle on her face. Only her eyes that have experienced the world secretly reveal that she is no longer the ignorant girl she was in her prime.

"Xu Wu, do you think you are still qualified to negotiate terms with me now?" Li Ru's voice was very soft... but it made Xu Wu breathless.

"Then what do you want?!" Xu Wu gasped and stared at her fiercely.

Li Ru suddenly smiled, and the beauty of that moment reminded Xu Wu of her sad smile twenty years ago when she ordered the execution of her father and brother. The two smiles overlapped each other, and he saw them again after twenty years!

"I will ask your daughter to take turns serving the guards in this palace. What do you think of this method?" Li Ru smiled like a child, with cold eyes.

Xu Wu's pupils tightened and he stared at her in disbelief, his lips trembling due to the intense ups and downs of his mood: "You, you, you hate me, just give me an operation..."

"Hate?" Li Ru waved her hands and stood up, snorted coldly, and said sarcastically, "Don't worry, I hate you as much as I want! Whether you want an operation or a belly wound, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future!"

Xu Wu suddenly became anxious: "Queen... please... Xu Wu... I am willing to do anything for you!"

Finally, Xu Wu's words made Li Ru pause for a moment before leaving, but she never looked back. She just looked at the bright world outside the hall and sneered: "Xu Wu, Xu Wu, don't you think you are proud and would rather die?" Isn’t that ridiculous? Haha, such a humble day can happen! I really want everyone in the world to see this scene!"

After that, Su waved his sleeves and stopped staying.
