Today is Emperor Fengxuan's birthday, and the whole capital is discussing this matter, after all, the emperor's birthday is a big event. Colorful flowers and all kinds of ribbons have been arranged in the palace early on, and it looks very beautiful.
The golden roof and stone walls are painted with various dragon patterns in colorful colors. The floor is covered with a carpet embroidered with brocade and satin in soft tones, occasionally burning a few bright red flames. The entire hall was full of low tables, and slim court ladies and eunuchs in blue-gray eunuch uniforms were busy in the hall.
There were layers of guards and maids standing outside the hall, leading the housekeepers and young masters into the hall, Lan Younian was naturally among them, and Hua Muqing, the mistress of the Lan Mansion today, did not Come on, Lan Younian and Yue Bailian walked into the hall together.
When passing by those guards, Lan Younian glanced casually, his eyes flickered with cold mist, did he really can't wait? Okay, really good, I'm afraid Xuan can't wait too long, it's annoying if the clown dances for a long time.
"There seems to be something wrong with today's birthday banquet, Nian'er, be careful!" Yue Bailian said as she sat beside Lan Younian. Now their women are sitting here, but the men have not arrived here yet, and they have gone to sacrifice with the emperor. Every year before the emperor's birthday, he would take officials to the imperial mausoleum to offer sacrifices.
Lan Younian looked at the bustling housekeeper girls who were chatting and laughing, his eyes flashed deep, and asked Yue Bailian beside him, "Why did you say that?" In fact, they hadn't received any news at all before, and neither did Lan Younian. What I saw just now, probably even Feng Yixuan didn't know that something would happen to him here.
Yue Bailian was not anxious, she seemed to be no different from the women who usually come to the banquet, she poured a cup of tea for Lan Younian and said with a smile, "Today is the emperor's birthday banquet, but there are so many guards outside, it's not surprising that there are guards, but the guards are not. Isn't it strange to stand outside the birthday banquet, and these guards are not the guards in the palace, they are full of murderous aura!"
Lan Younian looked at Yue Bailian with a flash of admiration. She always knew that Yue Bailian was smart, but now she also knew that Yue Bailian was not only smart but also full of courage. How can I make tea for myself with a smile here.
"If something happens later, remember to stay behind me, you know?" Lan Younian said indifferently, Yue Bailian doesn't know martial arts, if something happens, she can protect her by being behind her, and for herself The human Lan Younian is always very defensive.
Yue Bailian burst into a picturesque smile. It's not that she is not afraid of what will happen next, but thinking of Lan Younian beside her, Yue Bailian feels very at ease. It seems that Lan Younian, who is smaller and weaker than herself, can Give yourself a great sense of security, if something really happens, she will risk her life to protect Lan Younian, but now listening to what Lan Younian said, Yue Bailian really feels very happy, now they are not master and servant , but true friends.
"Don't worry about me, I'm fine! Nian'er, you have to be careful!" Yue Bailian stretched out her hand to hold Lan Younian's white hand and said, she can't become a stumbling block for Lan Younian, if she hinders Lan Younian , then even if I die, I will die!
The corners of Lan Younian's eyes were slightly bent, and the light in her eyes was soft. The smile turned out to be very dignified, with a natural aristocratic demeanor, she nodded.
While everyone was still laughing and chatting, suddenly the guards outside the hall quickly rushed into the hall, and everyone pulled out their long swords, no matter how stupid they were, they knew that something was wrong.
"What do you want to do, don't put down your weapons!" I thought the chief eunuch stood up and yelled at the guards, but just after he finished speaking, a guard cut his throat, and the bright red blood sprayed out, staining the body. The blanket in the hall was red, and the eunuch fell down clutching his wound.
"Ah! Ah!" When the eunuch fell down with blood, there were sharp screams in the hall, and those usually dignified women hugged each other in horror and howled at the top of their voices. There are many women trembling and crying in fear, and what's more, they even want to run outside the hall and want to leave here, but it's a pity that they were hacked to death by those guards before they left the hall, so the remaining No one dared to run away.
Lan Younian looked at all this indifferently without a trace of pity, let alone saving those innocent women. Lan Younian was cold-blooded and even ruthless. She never had good intentions towards unrelated people. If that person If she was interested or looked at differently, she would still attack, but now watching these hypocritical women die under the knife of the guards, Lan Younian sat there as if watching a show.
And Yue Bailian beside Lan Younian, although her face turned pale when she saw the blood overflowing, her eyes also showed no pity, let alone sympathy. Although she stayed in the brothel for so many years, she still saw a lot of murders. What she was uneasy was not because she was afraid but worried about whether Lan Younian would be implicated now.
At this time, An Siyan, who was sitting among the noble ladies, stood up with a smile, and walked to the guards under the disbelieving eyes of the surrounding women, but the guards did not kill her, but saluted respectfully.
"You..." A woman who usually walks closer to An Siyan pointed her finger at An Siyan, looked at An Siyan in fear, and asked in tears, "Siyan, what are you doing? What the hell is going on?" What's going on?"
An Siyan stood there with a charming smile, in stark contrast to those terrified ladies. She smiled and said to the woman, "What am I doing? Can't you see it? Of course I am controlling you!" "
"Why? Do you know the consequences of doing this?" The woman looked at An Siyan in fear, she was planning to rebel! "Siyan, our relationship is so good on weekdays, can you let me go? I promise I won't say anything, I just want to go back home!" The woman hoped that An Siyan could let her go because of the sisterhood for many years. , she didn't want to die, she was so scared.
"Let you go?" An Siyan smiled happily. Although she has been in a relatively high position for so many years, An Siyan now feels that she is the best now. Look, so many people are afraid of her, and she is the best in the capital. The powerful woman said, "Why did you let you go? Don't worry, as long as you behave well, I won't let them kill you!"
When An Siyan was enjoying this feeling, she found that Lan Younian who was sitting there did not show a trace of fear. She was sitting like that, but she was as beautiful as a picture scroll, her white face was not covered with makeup, but she was still as beautiful as a fairy , those pair of clear eyes are yet charming, the willow-like eyebrows, the corners of the brows and eyes are full of indifferent ironic smiles, the delicate nose, the plump bright red mouth, rippling on the delicate and flawless palm-sized face .
"Why aren't you afraid!" An Siyan came to Lan Younian and roared angrily, "Lan Younian, you bitch, why don't you beg for mercy!"
Yue Bailian was already a little angry by Lan Younian's side, but she knew that there was nothing she could do right now, and if she did something wrong, it would only hurt Lan Younian, Yue Bailian could only hold back the anger in her heart and watch quietly. Looking at An Siyan.
Lan Younian raised his cheeks and the smile on the corners of his mouth remained unchanged, although the sitting position was much shorter than that of An Siyan who was standing, but the aura made people feel that An Siyan was looking up at Lan Younian.
"Why are you afraid?" Lan Younian asked.
An Siyan looked at Lan Younian like this, her eyes seemed to be poisoned, which made people shudder, she thought that now she was a knife and Lan Younian was a fish, An Siyan said to a guard with a distorted expression "Drag her out to Miss Ben! Lan Younian, today I will let you know the fate of offending Miss Ben!"
But the guard standing there didn't move, An Siyan shouted, "Didn't you hear what Miss Ben said?"
One of the guards said, "Miss Hui, the prime minister ordered this daughter of the Lan Mansion not to move for the time being, she is still useful!" Although he hated An Siyan's temper, he was a subordinate and the prime minister's subordinate, so he You can only answer, but you can't violate the meaning of the prime minister.
Lan Younian smiled, it seemed that the prime minister regarded himself as the weakness of Feng Yixuan and his father, if he was caught, he would have nothing to fear.
"What!" An Siyan didn't expect that Lan Younian would not be able to touch Lan Younian at this time, but thinking that her father and grandfather could still use Lan Younian to threaten Hades and General Lan as long as they didn't kill him, An Siyan stretched out her The palm of her hand was ready to slap Lan Younian, she hated Lan Younian's exquisite and flawless face, she wanted to ruin Lan Younian's face, to see who else liked Lan Younian.
There was a slight smile on Lan Younian's face, but the chill in the smile was stronger than the frost in winter. When An Siyan slapped her hand, Lan Younian suddenly stood up, and she lifted her left foot abruptly. Suddenly, with the sound of the wind, a whip kicked towards An Siyan's waist and kicked An Siyan to the ground.

And at the same time, here at the Imperial Mausoleum...
Emperor Fengxuan took many officials and sons to the imperial mausoleum. In fact, going to the imperial mausoleum was nothing more than offering incense and offering sacrifices on a high platform outside the imperial mausoleum. The meaning was to thank the ancestors for their blessings and bless the wind country to continue.
The high platform of the imperial mausoleum is above a hundred steps, giving people a sense of solemnity and righteousness. Emperor Fengxuan walked up the steps slowly with his four sons, while the officials below knelt down and kowtowed.
Feng Yixuan walked up step by step with the emperor Fengxuan, suddenly Feng Yixuan's footsteps paused slightly, his cold eyes shone with a piercing coldness, but in the next moment he returned to normal, looked around Feng Shaochu, Feng Yixuan moved his finger slightly and made a signal to the dark place.
The secret signal is to let Pluto split part of the manpower and lead by An Yi to go to the palace. He has been observing for many days when the Queen's faction will attack, but he did not expect that it would be today. Feng Yixuan immediately thought of attending the palace banquet Lan Younian, he doesn't care about the struggle for imperial power, but Nian Nian's safety is the most important thing, even if it is unwise to send part of the underworld army to the palace banquet, he doesn't care.
As soon as An An, who had been keeping in the dark, saw the master's signal, he directly led a part of the underworld army lurking in the palace to the palace banquet. He knew the importance of the mistress to the master. What, then don't talk about the fate of those enemies, I'm afraid the entire Feng Nation will be devastated.
The underworld army followed Anyi quickly and secretly moved forward in the palace. Their master was Pluto, but Anyi under Pluto was also their master, so at this time they knew they were going to save the concubine Pluto whom they had never seen but only heard about. Sometimes, I was a little excited and wanted to behave better in front of the princess, but I didn't know if a woman like the princess was afraid of such an iron-blooded man like them!
Seeing An Yi disappear into the dark place, Feng Yixuan felt a little relieved. He knew Lan Younian's ability, and he also knew that he could escape the danger even without An Yi Niannian, but Feng Yixuan would not take the slightest chance of getting out of danger. Let it go, he can't afford to gamble.
When Emperor Fengxuan walked down from the high platform after offering sacrifices, soldiers poured out from all over the imperial mausoleum, and these soldiers were still holding weapons. What was even more surprising was that these soldiers were facing the emperor. .
Emperor Fengxuan looked at the soldiers calmly, and shouted angrily, "Rebellious ministers and thieves, do you want to rebel?"
At this time, Prime Minister An, who was hidden among the officials, stood up, and his official uniform did not conceal Prime Minister An's ambitions. He saw that the emperor above did not kneel down respectfully for the first time, but smiled viciously, "Wind Xuan, you can't sit firmly on the throne, it's time to change! This old man is just following the way of heaven!"
"What a wolfish ambition!" Feng Xiaqi's fox eyes twitched, "The old man wants to rebel and just say it, why are you making so much right and wrong? But Prime Minister An, I don't know if you want to be a high-ranking person yourself? Or is there something else behind you?" people!"
Feng Xiaqi knew that Prime Minister An's rebellion must have been signaled by the second prince, Feng Shaochu, but the bad thing is that Feng Shaochu is still standing on their side at this time. Killed, but the aftermath still exists.
At this time, Feng Shaochu looked at Prime Minister An angrily just like them, and seemed to be an ignorant, but was he really an ignorant? of course not! Of course, the rebellion in Anfu is his preference, but Feng Shaochu also knows that rebellion is not a trivial matter. If there is any eventuality, then it is a serious crime against the nine clans. How can he die if he wants to be on the throne? Woolen cloth? So he asked Prime Minister An and the others to rebel. Although part of the military power in their hands is his own, if he succeeds, he can just ascend the throne, and if he fails, he can also be exonerated and make a comeback. He didn't do anything today!
"Ministers, it's better to take it easy, I want my subordinates to invite your daughters to be our guests!" An Gongjing said standing beside his father, looking at the officials who were ready to move, they felt proud. They had already taken the children of these ministers I held it in my hand.
Those ministers who originally wanted to stand up for the royal family were terrified when they heard it. Many of them may indeed be loyal, but they still have their own families behind them. At this time, many ministers did not move, but their eyes were angry He looked at Prime Minister An and his son.
"An Gongjing, how dare you!" Lan Jianjun pointed a spear at An Gongjing and his son. He knew that his daughter had already entered the palace today. At that time, what he should have done most was to run to the emperor's side to protect the emperor, but Lan Jianjun couldn't do it. He was all about his daughter in his heart, and he wanted to kill those who wanted to hurt Nian'er.
"Heh!" The subordinates behind Prime Minister An immediately stepped forward to protect Prime Minister An and his son. Soldiers were already fighting with Lan Jianjun, who was holding a spear.
Although there are many soldiers, Lan Jianjun is a general on the battlefield. Although he can't hurt An Gongjing and his son, he won't let those soldiers hurt himself. When he kills the enemy on the battlefield, he faces tens of thousands of enemies, so now The Lan Jianjun is more than capable.
Although Lan Moxian was also very angry, he still remembered his identity. His father had already violated the emperor's prestige. If he went out again and disregarded the emperor's safety, he was afraid that even if the emperor surrendered the rebel army today, what would happen to the Lan family in the future? It is also the suspicion of the emperor.
Lan Jianjun fought for a long time but did not rush out of the imperial mausoleum, so he had to retreat and come to the emperor's side. Now the situation became clearer!
On the side of the emperor stood a few princes, the father and son of the Lanfu, the father and son of the Jingfu, and some humerus veterans. On the side of Prime Minister An stood some officials who were promoted by Prime Minister An, and the rest were conservatives. He was loyal to the emperor and did not rebel against Prime Minister An.
For a moment, the entire imperial mausoleum fell silent, the two sides were full of murderous intent, and the matter was about to explode...
