Just with this one sentence, a crime was accusation, and Murong Wan's life was taken away when she was still in her prime.
Shen Qingwan's tears came to her eyes at that moment. She looked at the woman lying on the ground with her eyes open. Her eyes were always facing her. She was panic-stricken and in great pain. Blood slowly flowed from the corners of her mouth, leaving a bloody mess on the ground.
Shen Qingwan felt a little dizzy and was supported by the prince beside her and leaned against the wall.
Nanny Gui cast a cold gaze on her, and her words were as sharp as a knife.
"You're on your own."
This is targeting her.
Shen Qingwan clenched her fists tightly in her sleeves. She couldn't stay in the palace anymore.
It's time to take action.
When Nanny Gui was driven back to the Queen's bedroom by Fu Mochen and his men, Shen Qingwan sat on the bed in a daze. She could do nothing now and could only wait for Fu Yuheng to send Ye Feng to contact her as agreed last time.
She thought it would take a long time, but she didn't expect there would be movement that night.
"My Lady..."
She was sleeping soundly. When she opened her eyes, she saw Fu Yuheng's face only half a meter away from her. He was holding her and looking at her worriedly.
"You were frightened, are you okay?"
Fu Yuheng asked softly, as if afraid of disturbing Shen Qingwan's nerves.
Shen Qingwan suddenly collapsed and threw herself into his arms, crying silently. Her husband came when she needed him most. What else could she do except cry in his arms!
"They beat Murong to death. I saw it with my own eyes. It was a human life..."
The bloody scene has not faded from her eyes yet, and she still feels frightened when she thinks of the scene.
Fu Yuheng hugged Shen Qingwan to comfort her, trying to drive away the terrible memories for her.
"Wanwan, don't be sad. I know you have a kind heart, but it's not your fault. You don't need to blame yourself."
He kissed Shen Qingwan's cheek and said softly, "It's not advisable to stay here for long. I will take you out immediately. You don't need to guard here. Ye Feng will stay here for you to control the prince. Come with me. Concubine Shu and Concubine Qi will leave tonight. Tomorrow morning, it will be time to force the emperor to abdicate."
Shen Qingwan was shocked. Thinking about her interactions with Fu Mochen these days, she was afraid that Fu Yuheng might hurt the prince by being too aggressive, so she quickly refused.
"Your Majesty, I'd better stay. The palace is full of experts, and it's not easy for you to come and see me. It's too much of a burden to bring me and Concubine Qi and Concubine Shu with you, and it's easy for something to go wrong. You can ask Guard Ye to stay with me, and nothing will happen."
"No, you..."
"Your Majesty, your safety is the most important thing. I cannot let you take risks for me."
Shen Qingwan looked at him pleadingly, and Fu Yuheng could not resist her gaze after all, and agreed despite his worry.
"I don't want to hear the eunuchs in the palace say bad things about you anymore. If you weren't smart today, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to see me again. Wanwan, I promise you, and you have to promise me to wait for me in the palace."
Shen Qingwan nodded with tense nerves, and an unspoken promise was made between the two.
Ye Feng watched from the side and sighed.
Fu Yuheng, along with the two women and his men, walked along the dark corners of the palace. Apart from Shen Qingwan, no one in the palace could threaten him in the slightest!
Huo Langqi always followed behind him and had a clear understanding of the movements of the Okong Kingdom.
"Your Majesty, they have persuaded an important official of the imperial court to revolt, and he has hundreds of thousands of troops under his control. Tomorrow is the day for the rebellion, which coincides with the time of the Empress's rebellion."
"Come on! I will let them fight to the death first, and then I will reap the benefits!"
Fu Yuheng's expression was firm, and Huo Langqi's eyes also had a flickering fire.
The thirty-seventh year of Daliang, the first day of March, early morning.
Countless teams of troops quietly poured into the capital from various checkpoints and fortresses.
All the guards had their throats cut silently and were replaced by Fu Yuheng's men.
All forces are lurking in the darkness, waiting for their chance to strike.
At dawn, the queen was awakened from her bedroom, and her servant reported: "Your Majesty, Odu of Okong country and General Qian have rebelled! They have now entered the palace!"
Shouts and cries of killing could already be heard in the bedroom. The queen was so frightened that her face turned pale. She shouted repeatedly: "Quick, quick, protect me! Yes, and the emperor, go and save him first!"
There was chaos in the bedroom.
At this time, in the prince's palace, Shen Qingwan looked at the unconscious Fu Mochen with complicated eyes.
"Do you think Fu Yuheng will kill him?"
Shen Qingwan could vaguely see a fire outside through the window, which must mean that Fu Yuheng had already attacked and entered the palace.
Ye Feng didn't dare to answer, but still comforted Shen Qingwan: "Don't worry, Madam. The emperor knows his limits. He is not a cruel person."
Shen Qingwan also nodded in self-mockery: "I was confused. No matter how cruel Ah Heng was, he would never kill his own son. I was frightened by the scene that day and I haven't recovered yet."
Ye Feng was very worried: "Your Majesty, we should leave now. The Queen's people will come to rescue the prince soon. Who knows, Ou Duo may also send people to rob and kill him. I must ensure your safety."
Shen Qingwan nodded, and the two of them left the inner palace through a secret passage inside the Prince's Palace and joined up with Fu Yuheng's men.
At this time, the palace gate was already a sea of fire and a river of blood.
The queen was surrounded by hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and she was also protected by more than 200,000 soldiers under her command. The two sides were in a standoff in the center of the palace.
"You cunt, you took advantage of the young age of the emperor and his lack of military power. You were ruthless and cruel in your power and ignored the common people. You are now guilty of your crimes. How many homeless refugees have fled to various places to avoid the plague? If the late emperor were still alive, he would never allow you to bring disaster to the country and the people! Today, I will punish you, the eternal sinner, on his behalf!"
The Queen looked over and saw that many of the troops behind General Qian were made up of refugees from all over the place. She snorted coldly and showed no weakness: "How dare the scattered soldiers and remnants be so arrogant in front of me! My son is the crown prince appointed by the previous emperor, you are rebelling! Who is the one who really wants to disregard Daliang? If I am not mistaken, the people around you are not from Daliang, right? You are the one who collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, and led a large army to attack the capital in an attempt to force the emperor to abdicate. What crime should you be punished for! Soldiers of Daliang, kill these traitors for me! There will be a huge reward!"
"yes!"
"Come here, capture the Queen Mother alive, and I will grant you a thousand acres of land, and make you a king and a general!"
"Yes, General!"
The two sides engaged in close combat, the sound of killing shook the sky, and under the glow of the morning glow, the palace was a sea of fire.
The stars at night illuminated Shen Qingwan's fair face. She walked on the palace road towards Fu Yuheng, carrying Fu Mochen on her back.
Ye Feng asked Shen Qingwan to hand Fu Mochen over to him more than once, but was rejected in the end.
"You have a mission later, so you need to conserve your energy. Leave these things to me."
