The emperor knew that something was wrong with the imperial edict to recall Mo Qin.
The battle report from the border came back, but the person did not come back.
This signal was what really alerted the emperor.
But now is obviously not the time to pursue the truth.
If her body cannot hold on and the person is gone, there must be someone who can temporarily stabilize the situation. It is best to recall Mo Qin quickly.
The emperor sent people there again, but he didn't know whether they could successfully bring the news.
"His Majesty……"
Some people were startled by these words, and their voices trembled, probably because they wanted to say some comforting words.
The emperor raised his hand and pressed it, "Okay, no need to talk about those useless things."
…
The emperor summoned people to the palace and looked like he was making arrangements for the funeral. Of course, this matter did not escape the eyes and ears of those who were interested.
Many people are ready to make a move.
Yang Gui, who had been living in the palace for a long time, also came to visit.
He lay prone in front of the bed, holding the emperor's hand tightly with both hands, with a rare tenderness in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, long time no see, how come you have become..." Now you are in this miserable state.
Under such circumstances, the emperor became less wary of the man in front of him who had lost his only daughter.
Therefore, among all the attendants, Yang Gui's attendance at illness far exceeded that of the others.
Yang Guiya was obviously very happy and looking forward to it, but he still had to try his best to pretend to be worried.
The group of people from the Third Princess were even more active.
Trying to take advantage of this perfect opportunity to take the throne.
They made a great fuss.
As the saying goes, the emperor shot down many people with his last strength.
On the other hand, those who supported the concubine were strangely quiet.
"When will Her Majesty the Queen return to the court?"
"At this juncture, what else is there to fight?"
"If the people from the Third Princess' side... don't come back, it will be too late."
"Who knows...how long I can last."
The emperor's sleep was getting longer and longer, and no one knew on which day she would die.
-
Jiang Yanning has been in the concubine's residence these days and has not gone out.
"Does Your Highness know what's going on in the capital?"
The emperor's health had long been in decline, and now she was secretly poisoned. Unless a god came down to earth, no one could save her.
As long as the emperor dies... no, maybe he won't even wait until the emperor dies.
Qin Hao looked sad, "Many people are watching now. Even the people sent by the emperor were intercepted secretly."
On the surface, the third princess has the greatest chance of winning, but secretly, there is a fourth princess dormant.
But only a few people know about the Fourth Princess.
Jiang Yanning looked at the world outside the courtyard wall:
"Can't your people get out either?"
Jiang Yanning didn't know Mo Qin's specific plan, or whether it was developing as Mo Qin expected.
He only knew that the security in the mansion had become increasingly tight these days.
There are also several waves of assassins trying to sneak into the house.
Qin Hao didn't say much, he just comforted him calmly:
"Don't worry, Madam. Your Highness has your own arrangements."
"..."
Can he not worry?
This is a matter of life and death for Mo Qin and himself.
Jiang Yanning wanted to say something, but when he saw Qin Hao's face, he couldn't say anything.
Even if there was, she wouldn't tell herself.
Qin Hao has a calm temperament, and she will complete everything arranged by Mo Qin as required, even if she is left to protect him.
But Jiang Yanning could feel that Qin Hao didn't have much kindness towards him, and even somewhat rejected him.
A few days later, the situation in the capital became even more serious, and even the air seemed to be suffocating.
Jiang Yanning heard a commotion outside.
A waiter stumbled in from outside. His face was pale and his legs were trembling.
"Outside, outside...someone has surrounded the concubine's residence!"
Jiang Yanning stood up, "What!"
He looked outside and saw that the servants in the mansion were a little panicked, but he didn't hear anyone breaking in.
"Whose person?"
"I don't know. I don't know the person taking the lead."
Those people are well-trained and well-equipped, and they look like regular troops at first glance.
Jiang Yanning murmured in her heart when she heard the servant's description.
Could it be that he is from the Third Princess?
"Where's Qin Hao?"
"Master Qin..."
Before Xiao Si finished speaking, someone came in from outside. It was Qin Hao who came with someone.
It was the Third Princess's people who surrounded the Princess's Mansion, but those people only surrounded the Princess's Mansion and had no intention of breaking in.
An hour ago, news came from the palace that the emperor had passed away.
Although the Third Emperor's daughter had her military power taken away, she still had some people in her hands due to her position.
She quickly controlled those who did not support her and were a threat to her.
Jiang Yanning felt that something was wrong:
"Is the Third Imperial Sister planning to rebel?"
The emperor is gone, but no one has said there is an imperial edict. I wonder if it was intercepted by someone.
But even if not, it should be the queen who ascends the throne.
Now that the princess is not here, the third princess thought she had taken advantage.
-
The royal palace, above the main hall.
The third princess was wearing armor and holding a sword, and a group of courtiers were surrounded in the middle.
Someone stood in the crowd, pointed at Mo Zheng and asked angrily:
"Third Princess, what do you mean?"
"Do you want to rebel?!"
Mo Zheng glanced at the man and sneered, "A country cannot live without a king for a day. If the mother emperor passes away, I will naturally inherit the throne!"
"!!"
He hasn't even become the emperor yet, but he has already started calling himself me!
The ministers below were so angry that they cursed loudly.
The third princess's good mood was half ruined.
She ignored it and walked straight to the throne.
Just as he stepped onto the steps, he heard roaring coming from outside.
"kill!!"
"Qingjun side, punish the rebels!!"
There were sounds of fighting and screams, and everyone in the hall had puzzled expressions.
Who came to kill?
Your Royal Highness...
Isn’t Her Majesty still at the border? I haven't heard of him returning to court.
Where did Mo Zheng still have the heart to experience the throne, she immediately rushed out with her people.
I saw a person who should have been dead long ago.
"Moyang! You're not dead?!"
Mo Zheng raised his hand and chopped off a man's head. He stared at Mo Yang who came in with a team of men and his eyes widened.
Mo Yang just smiled crookedly, full of sarcasm. She raised the sword in her hand and pointed at Mo Zheng.
"Kill! Catch the rebels!"
Mo Zheng: "..."
She is a rebel, who is Mo Yang! !
We are all rebels, no one is nobler than the other!
Mo Yang is still a dead rebel...
The two sides fought fiercely.
On the contrary, the courtiers trapped in the hall are the safest.
After fighting for who knows how long, Mo Yang and Mo Zheng finally decided the winner.
Mo Zheng was pressed down, his body was covered with paint, and he was in a state of embarrassment.
The courtiers were no less shocked than the three princesses. They seemed to have seen a ghost:
"Fourth Princess...aren't you...dead?"
Mo Yang was not in the mood to fight with them, and sat directly on the top seat, as if he was a winner.
