"Ancient Master." Mu Qingge suddenly called.
The silver-haired old man stepped forward immediately.
Her eyes fell on him and she said calmly: "Can you please take the King's men and keep an eye on the prince and queen secretly to prevent them from running away. I will send these people to be buried with Yong Huan."
Mu Qingge's cold instructions made the ancient master look at her but said nothing.
He nodded and left with the people.
Not long after the ancient master left with his people, Qin Jinhao, dressed in black armor, came with his people.
He sat on the horse and looked at the blood on the ground inside the palace gate, his eyes couldn't help but be shocked. At this moment, no corpses could be seen, but judging from the blood stains, they must have experienced a fierce battle.
But Mu Qingge was riding on the horse intact. Not only her, but also her men were unscathed. Such terrifying combat power made him not only shocked, but also filled with deep envy and jealousy.
However, he became more confident about what happened tonight.
"Qingge, are you not injured? Don't worry, when I ascend to the throne, I will definitely seek justice for you today." Qin Jinhao concealed his inner joy and assured Mu Qingge.
Mu Qingge raised her lips and smiled: "For the great cause of Prince Rui, what does this matter?"
This sentence seemed to make Qin Jinhao find the familiarity he once had. It seemed that Mu Qingge's attitude towards him should be like this.
He nodded with satisfaction and ordered everyone to go straight to Huanglong and rush into the palace.
At night, the peace was broken.
There was chaos in the palace.
In Cixiang Palace, the palace door is closed.
The Queen Mother, who should have taken a rest early, was sitting on a chair at this moment, twirling Buddhist beads in her hand, closing her eyes and mumbling something.
In the empty hall, there was faint noise from outside the palace.
The nanny who was guarding the Queen Mother asked anxiously with a hint of urgency in her expression: "Master, aren't you going to come forward? Now that His Majesty is seriously ill, if you continue to remain silent, things will change."
The Queen Mother's face darkened slightly, and she suddenly stopped twisting the Buddha beads in her hand. She slowly opened her eyes and said with a cold voice: "If they want to make trouble, let them do it. The Yi family also wants to see who among their brothers is more powerful." Good for that seat.”
"But, your Majesty is still here." Grandma said anxiously.
The corners of the Queen Mother's eyes twitched fiercely, and she pursed her lips in silence.
She is not a fool. The Queen's refusal to let anyone see the Emperor only shows that the Emperor cannot survive much longer. At this moment, if she intervened, it would be displeasing to both parties.
Instead of doing this, it is better to wait and see what happens.
Anyway, no matter who ascends the throne, she will still be the Empress Dowager, and no one can change this.
There was a sharpness in her eyes.
Her choice really echoes the old saying, 'There is no true love in the emperor's family. '
In this deep palace, everyone's heart is twisted, and all they care about is themselves and power.
Hearing the determination in the old queen's words, Grandma could only sigh and silently stepped aside.
In a short while, the outside of Cixiang Palace was tightly guarded by heavy soldiers. People inside could not get out, and people outside could not get out either. This is true not only of Cixiang Palace, but also where several other important figures lived.
The Dragon Tooth Guards are extremely ferocious, and entering the palace is like entering an uninhabited land.
Even though the queen and the prince had made preparations early, they were still shocked by the overwhelming momentum.
Qin Jinhao followed closely behind Mu Qingge and got a huge advantage.
At this time, the chaos in the palace had reached its peak. Outside the palace, Mu Xiong and Mu Lianrong also quietly left the palace and disappeared.
